bicol-map-620.jpg

The land that have a lot of hots not only the foods and also the people and they called it now the Rich Land, the land of Bicol. Me and my friends tried the 45 mins adventure and we really enjoyed it. We plan to go back next year to try the green or black lava the 2-3 hours adventure. If you love extreme adventure try this. Hire the higher cc and height atv. I enjoyed the atv higher height and cc (the shop had 1 unit atv 300 cc only hay!!) don’t use expensive shoes because you’ll get wet. Check on the helmet if it has cracks. Make sure to follow instructions from the guide. The guide takes pictures and videos. The trail in Cagsawa is a must try. You will really enjoy it.

Swim with the Whale shark in Donsol, Sorsogon. I guess I have seen most of the underwater creatures one has to see in the Philippines (without using a scuba diving gear) in all my escapades except for one- Butanding or whale sharks. Its a sad fact that I haven’t experienced swimming with these gentle giants. So I’m promising myself to interact with one when I visit Sorsogon on March next year

Swim in another Waterfalls. I was able to trek Mt. Isarog the first time I went to Bicol and we jump into Malabsay Falls. It was freakin’ cold but I loved it! So next time around, I wanna experience another falls. I’m thinking of Vera Falls, Botong Twin Falls or Busay in Albay.

Jollibee Versus McDonald’s

images (1)
Jollibee is the largest fast food chain in the Philippines, operating a nationwide network of over 750 stores. A dominant market leader in the Philippines, Jollibee enjoys the lion’s share of the local market that is more than all the other multinational brands combined. The company has also embarked on an aggressive international expansion plan in the USA, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Brunei, firmly establishing itself as a growing international QSR player.
Jollibee’s growth is due to its delicious menu line-up – like its superior-tasting Chickenjoy, mouth-watering Yumburger and Champ hamburger, and deliciously satisfying Jollibee Spaghetti -ably complemented with creative marketing programs, and efficient manufacturing and logistics facilities. It is made possible by well-trained teams that work in a culture of integrity and humility, fun and family-like. Every Jollibee outlet welcomes customers with a clean and warm in-store environment and friendly and efficient service. And it is this tried and tested formula of delivering great-tasting food, adherence to world class operating standards and the universal appeal of the family values the brand represents that are driving the expansion of Jollibee both locally and in the overseas market.

McDonald’s is an American fast food company, founded in 1940 as a restaurant operated by Richard and Maurice McDonald, in San Bernardino, California, United States. They rechristened their business as a hamburger stand, and later turned the company into a franchise, with the Golden Arches logo being introduced in 1953 at a location in Phoenix, Arizona. In 1955, Ray Kroc, a businessman, joined the company as a franchise agent and proceeded to purchase the chain from the McDonald brothers. McDonald’s had its original headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois, but moved its global headquarters to Chicago in early 2018.
Back in 1954, a man named Ray Kroc discovered a small burger restaurant in California, and wrote the first page of our history. From humble beginnings as a small restaurant, we’re proud to have become one of the world’s leading food service brands with more than 36,000 restaurants in more than 100 countries.

Jollibee has fewer stores. It originated in the Philippines and is typically cheaper than McDonald’s. In the Philippines as an American I chose McDonald’s when I wanted burgers and Jollibee if I wanted chicken. Both offer Filipino-style spaghetti, chicken and burgers. Jollibee occasionally has other specials and some unique items not found at McDonald’s Philippines. I.e. There is a burger with pineapple called the aloha burger, they also have a beef steak with gravy and rice. Jollibee is famous for their chickenjoy, or fried chicken. McDonald’s is famous for their burgers.
A comparison of Jollibee Foods and McDonald’s store locations in Metro Manila as of early January 2017 shows a surprising result. At 253, the number of Jollibee branches in the National Capital Region’s 17 cities easily overwhelms McDonald’s 164 stores. The figures were compiled from the two fast-food chain’s websites and mobile apps as of January 5, 2017. However, McDonald’s managed to edge past Jollibee in three of four business districts—Makati City, Bonifacio Global City in Taguig, and Binondo, the country’s biggest Chinatown, in Manila. In BGC, McDonald’s even has more than double Jollibee’s stores. It’s only in Ortigas Center, where Jollibee has its main office, that it outnumbers McDonald’s.

What do you know about cloud accounting?

 

cloud-accounting-software-why-do-i-need-it (1).jpg

 

According to the site Financial Force, Cloud accounting software is similar to traditional, on-premises, or self-install accounting software, only the accounting software is hosted on remote servers, similar to the SaaS (Software as a Service) business model. Data is sent into “the cloud,” where it is processed and returned to the user.

It is also indicated there that all application functions are performed off-site, not on the user’s desktop. Here in the cloud computing,users access software applications remotely through the Internet or other network via a cloud application service provider.

Cloud computing accounting software may also be referred to as online accounting software or Web-based accounting software.

 

Another definition for cloud accounting according to Hubdoc it was said that traditionally, accounting was executed using software hosted locally on a desktop computer’s hard drive (e.g., Quickbooks Desktop). Cloud accounting, on the other hand, is accounting that is executed using software that is hosted remotely on the cloud – i.e., online.

 

In the simplest terms, cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer’s hard drive. The cloud is just a metaphor for the Internet. It goes back to the days of flowcharts and presentations that would represent the gigantic server-farm infrastructure of the Internet as nothing but a puffy, white cumulus cloud, accepting connections and doling out information as it floats.

This should be need to introduce and to be taught to  the students that are going to take the same path like us–an ABM student–and need to elaborate this in college. This is very useful for the employees because  using cloud computing accounting software frees the business from having to install and maintain software on individual desktop computers. It also allows employees in remote or branch offices to access the same data and the same version of the software. Using cloud accounting is like a simple machine that makes our life easier and faster. We should try to explore and have knowledge about cloud accounting.
