Flat Bulbs To Light Your Home




(image from designboom)

Found this innovation while doing my usual surfing. It's a good innovation and I think this explain what engineers do although I am not sure what is the profession of the designer Joonhuyn Kim. He designed this bulb to accommodate the need for easier handling and packaging. The flat bulb was part of the 100% design tokyo.

Great Deal: Panama's Oldest, Grandest Place to Stay

Real Estate is in my wish list and I have been checking the internet every now and then for good investment on this category. I might have not considered an actual purchase of real estate across the world but I have always thought of Panama as a good vacation place.

If you love cobbled streets, old and beautiful churches then Casco Antiguo in Panama might just be the perfect vacation place for you. You will definitely enjoy the great architecture that will greet you on your very first day. And if you will be returning every year, investment for a place to stay on your returning trips on this historical place should be considered.

A condominium with hotel amenities completes the vacation for a traveler. I recommend that if you have the money to invest, you might as well try the Hotel Casco Antiguo. I heard that it is the oldest operating hotel in the city hence they have the best service to offer since they have been in the business for the longest time.

Interested now?

Register for an eBrochure Here. Who knows? You might be one of the owners of their 34 rooms and will have the best deal that you can get from a hotel. And if I am lucky, we can be neighbors too!

Revised

I have to re-read the last post and dismayed to find too many errors on the post. :( Revised it too. Sorry about that guys.

About the blogroll, it will be up soon. Within the week, I hope. Have to redo the template again. I am not so happy with the green template. Looks too crowded for me.

On the brigther side...

I know that I told the hubby that I will stop obsessing about owning a house this year ( we have to settle on whether it is a house or a lot or both) so I have to stop viewing interiors..but well, I just can't.

I love this dining area: summer colors



This one fits the small space house I have been planning for a year now. (I love small space houses and save the rest of the lot for the big garden and space for the kids to run around)



I can't remember where did I found these photos though. If anyone here recognize these, please inform/message me so that I can give you the due credit.

Jobs for Chemical Engineering Graduates

When I started my undergraduate degree I have no idea what will be my career after school. Even when I was in my last year in college, I am still clueless.

Most people I met have almost identical reaction whenever they learn about my undergraduate degree. Thinking that this is a very difficult degree, they are wondering how one survives it. Well, depending on the student, chemical engineering is actually a great course. Like all degrees that lead to a rewarding career, finishing the chemical engineering course is no walk in the park.

To start with, Chemical Engineering course talked mostly about engineering concepts and mathematics. Applied chemistry were taught later on together with various industry application of engineering and mathematics. Since this is a combination of engineering and chemistry, it is neither purely technical and business. It is a degree on technology and marketing: engineering for profit and technology for chemistry.

What are the jobs for a chemical engineer? Well there are plenty to choose from:

-If you are good with optimization and equipment design, then a Design Engineer position is perfect for you.
-For those who are good on processes and increasing profits by improving the quality of products then you can be a Process Engineer
-Research and Development Engineer are those who enjoy the laboratory activities
-Some even end up in the field where they can be technical engineers or sales engineers.

The Chemical Engineering degree is a holistic course. Since this is about industry and engineering your studies covers everything like food, metals, plant designs, business and even environment. So the career choice is endless.

How did I know that? It takes one to know it. :)

Happy Halloween to All!
