We opened our 2015 with Unsullied Perspective's 2014 Year in Review. With the resumption of work and classes for
that year, we were greeted with transportation fare hike so we provided you the
Commuters' Guide to New MRT/LRT 2015 Fares that you can use for budgeting your
family’s transportation allowance if you are using those train lines in your
daily commute.
Since it was the start of
the year and almost everyone was in the mood for planning, we created a
planning tool to get your finances on track with 2015 Financial Calendar
Planner. The month of January afforded
us a week-long vacation to give way to papal visit in the Philippines. The Roman Catholic Church’s Leader had
provided spiritual relief for all our down-trodden Catholic fellowmen especially
those who were badly affected by typhoon Yolanda. With that, we complied the Seven Lessons
Gathered from the Papal Visit in the Philippines to remind us of valuable
teachings that we can apply in our day-to-day lives whatever is one’s religious
affiliation.
In February and March, we continued our gift-giving advocacy and announced
our January and February winners of our Monthly Fun Treat. Due to numerous queries about our post on SSS
maternity benefit, we decided to have a dedicated post answering our reader’s
comments and questions about that topic thus we had our Q & A on SSS
Maternity Benefit Part 1. Our blog also
reached another milestone in March when we had our very first Nuffnang Cash Out
in 2015.
We also continued our undertaking to be warriors for the environment through
the Global Citizen Earth Day and Earth Hour campaigns. our readers’ queries about SSS that we had our
Part 2 and Part 3 of our Q & A. For
some reason we felt we missed so much in the summer months thus we created a
to-do list with our plans for the month of May.
Coincidentally, we released our July to December Financial Calendar
Planner as we promised at the start of the year. We were too happy to receive our check in May
that we decided to divide the money to our different advocacies where part of
that went to donation and to our fun treat, check out how we spent our Nuffnang
Cashout.
In June we made a repost on Earthquakes and Disaster Preparedness to inform
you my dear readers on what to do in case of disasters. Around that time, several news of networking
and investment scams hugged the headlines thus we felt the need to remind you
on how to protect your money and things to consider before you invest. I really
hope that it reached many readers as it is too disheartening to see people who
lost their hard-earned money and their chance of a good life because of those
greedy souls.
Sometime in August we made an article about the steps on how to file for an
SSS Salary Loan since we received queries about that. In preparation for the
2016 National General Election where we will be voting our next country
leaders, we informed you about Comelec’s mandatory biometrics capturing which
is required before you can vote in the coming election.
In September, most of us living in Metro Manila suffered from horrendous
traffic like it was Two Miles, Two Hours Traffic every single day. Everything seemed to be at a standstill when
we were caught in it.
On the same month
our blog reached its 10th birthday so we posted the article of our
Monthly Fun Treat Closing and 15th Anniversary Announcement where we made a
winners list recap of our 12 months of fun treat and we also made an
announcement of our soon-to-be published book.
The month of October was the deadline for claiming the prize for our Fun
Treat. As some of our winners did not
claim their prize, we decided to give the equivalent money value for donation
to Philippine Red Cross. At least it
served its purpose, it was meant to be shared anyway. We wish to remember how
we were swayed with stories about love, hope, values and the Filipino culture
that was the reason we also got hooked in Eat Bulaga’s Kalyeserye featuring the
Aldub loveteam and the three grandmas. It
also reminded us about waiting for that right moment, about letting destiny
work its way “at the right time”.
We missed posting articles for November as it was a very busy month for us
where we gave way to personal dealings.
Planning for a family travel abroad was too taxing that we devoted much
of our time in it making sure that it would be a worry-free vacation. True enough, we were able to relax and had a
good time in Singapore. We did not only
had a good time, we were as well inspired and motivated when we came back. That was the very reason we brought home
essential lessons from Singapore.
In all, we had a very full and memorable 2015. Cheers
to all the good times and we will forever be grateful for everything. Looking forward to a fruitful 2016.
