Global Recession

Recession has been spreading throughout the world and every one is affected by it. Majority of the countries are affected by recession and some really experienced great damage except for a few countries. We can also say the USA is the number one affected by it. People got laid off, some got big bills and even some old folk’s benefits have been removed.

In the time of downfall it is the time to sit down and think what we should do in order to survive this economic crisis. This is the time to think about business. Some people engaged into a business like franchise. In franchise you don’t have to worry of creating idea or business origin because it already exists. All you should take care is how to manage the business that is already there and make it grow.

Some big company or firm engaged on this kind of strategy to earn bigger profit. They provide franchise for sale in order to have additional income and to expand their range of services. Just like fast food chain provide franchise services to expand branches around the state. Luckily there are many franchises for sale you can find online now. From online business, marketing to product the can provide it all the opportunity.

A Friend in Middle East

My best friend Marlou is working and living in Middle East for 10 years now. He is currently working as the head chef of a hotel for about 4 years already. As part of his physical fitness routine, he is also practicing martial arts after work and aimed to reach the highest level of degree as well. Just recently,we were chatting through some social media sites like Facebook because we haven’t seen each other for quite sometime. We used to hang out during our college days and together we practice taekwondo with some of our best friends during our free hours.

As part of conversation, we reminisce all the funny stuffs we all have been with during college years. He also shared some of the places he has been through during his stay in Middle East. Out of our conversation, I couldn’t imagine how really beautiful Dubai is. There are rumors he mentioned to me about the New Hotel Dubai, which will truly add beauty to Dubai. Wow! It is really my dream to see the place personally. I love to see in person what makes the place so special.

My best friend Marlou is planning to go back home soon and have his own business here in our country. He works hard and saves money for his future plan to have his own family and kids. One thing he told me that catches me to think of, “You should work hard to make your future baby has the brighter and better future in which you desire him/her to have”.

He never misses any news to mention every time we had the chance of conversation. Even about his niece who is currently on the 6th grade now and same as with the other kids in our community who is also been addicted to computer games. Sheryl is one of his favorite nieces, who is soon celebrating her birthday. Marlou is planning to buy her a special gift on her upcoming birthday. One of Sheryl’s favorite game is monkey defense. Just like the other computer games she also enjoys playing it. One thing that is nice about Sheryl, she knows how to set her priorities aside from playing games, she also spend time doing her home works from school.

My Uncle’s private Golf Course

Are you fond of playing or watching outdoor sports? What particular sports you are in up to? Most people are fond of these popular ball sports like basketball, baseball, football, soccer, tennis, golf and etc. A person who used to get involved to any physical sports will never get tired when they get old. Living with a healthy and active lifestyle is very important factor to maintain a good and healthy body.

My uncle is much known of his achievements being a good man and popular lawyer in our town. He is a busy lawyer and usually spent most of his time in the office dealing and resolving legal problems of his clients. He never thought of being a busy man has a less of time to relax, time for his family and even time to exercise. On the peak of his career, he realized that the lifestyle he has been through was unhealthy. He needs to change and balance the wheel of life before it is too late.

My Uncle’s family owned a small private golf course with a little playground. Just recently he asked his colleagues to set time to play with him after work. He makes sure to have at least time to relax while doing a little of exercise. Playing golf is a way he thinks the best for him.

Tiger Woods is one of his favorite players in Golf and some how inspires him to play. My Uncle’s eldest son is very fond of gold and he used to play with him everyday. As a way of saying thanks to his father, my cousin wanted to surprise father on his birthday. He wanted his dad’s friends be there to celebrate and do some golf tournament for fun. As a preparation, he then decorates the golf course by putting some golf course signs that could add beauty to the site. Golf course signage is not just making the place beautiful but a great help to players who are not familiar with the game yet.

My cousin Bimbo got the idea of putting some golf course sign at their private golf course after watching the match in PGA tour where Tiger Woods played. Making a simple thing makes his father becomes happy on his birthday party.
