    Before We Leave Nintendo Switch Review

    I have issues Concerning how well this game ran on the switch port, I had some questions. I'll hold off till the initial performance reviews come in. Although it's unrelated, every Team17 game I've ever owned ran horribly on the Switch and occasionally had errors that made it impossible to play...

    Tech How often do you charge your phone?

    Well, I charge my phone around twice a day depending on my usage of it. When I'm just at home, I just do calls and text messages. But when I am going somewhere else and I use it to play games or just listen to music, I charge it twice on those days.

    Books Do you use the library?

    I usually go to the library when I was in college. I like the feel of having people around me reading. I could study or read worthwhile writings in the comfort of my room but the thing is with my room is that I feel sleepy. But the feel of being in a library is different. I feel like I am one...

    Books Paulo Coelho

    I also have read Paolo Coelho's "The Witch of Portobello". I haven't finished it though due to busy schedules but it's a wonderful book. Once again, Paolo Coelho's skill of incorporating mysticism in a novel was manifested. I'm looking forward to finishing the book. :)

    Books How to win friends and influence people - Read this book!

    I highly advise this book. But just keep in mind that, as I experienced, it's more challenging to apply what was read. It takes time and couple of adjustments. What was written here should not be universalized since as I reflected, "Relating is an art". We could not apply a single approach to...

    Tech Do you prefer taking pictures using your smartphone?

    I'm using my phone camera rather than a digital one. I'm using an iPhone 3G and the picture quality is very good. However, if given a chance, I'll still go for and DSLR. I learned how to use it in our journalism class and I was fascinated with how the controls could give me my desired output...

    Books Unique Authors

    I have read works of different authors through time. However, I deem Paulo Coelho as the most unique in his style of writing. He does not just write just to entertain. He writes with depth. He writes as if he is writing a spiritual book but he covers it with a beautiful veil of a story. When I...

    Books How to win friends and influence people - Read this book!

    Is this the book of Dale Carnegie. My mom had a copy of this book and I found it while I was looking at copies of the books that she had when she was still single. I read it while I was still in my first year in high school. The book had a good influence to me while I was growing up.

    Books Paulo Coelho

    The first book of Paolo Coelho that I read was the Alchemist and that was the first novel that I finished. What could I say? It was fantastic. It paved the way for me to love reading novels. Why do I like Paolo Coelho? He writes in a unique way. It's as if he is writing a spiritual book clothed...
