Information is not that difficult now to get because of the technology available to us. Who would have known a couple of years ago that we will be able to research without going to the library and browse through books of lengthy material and bulky pages in just a few seconds? And what about meet ups? Who would have thought that people from different places – continents – can see each other, talk to each other we just a swipe of a finger?
I remember back in my elementary years, I had classmate who was in the top of our class and her secret was having a tutor. And her tutor turned out to be our very own English teacher. How convenient, right?
Anyway, I digress. Going back, even tutors nowadays can be available online too. So I think it is more convenient than having the tutor come to your house at a certain hour each day. With technology, online tutors can have the necessary references that a student needs – reading materials, graphs, charts, visual aids.
That's how technology empowers all of us, I guess. Indeed globalization has made the world smaller and reachable. Funny how that power lies in our fingertips.

Sbarro's New Half and Half
I was craving for a Chicago White pizza partnered with my favorite raspberry iced tea so I headed for Sbarro before trudging off to my errands.
When the cashier asked for my drink, I answered happily for a raspberry iced tea. But to my dismay, they didn't have any in their stock. Maybe she perceived my sadness because while she told me the drink selection - iced tea, lemonade and a new iced tea lite - she gave me a small cup of the last one so I can taste.
Well the lite part was true to its nature. It was iced tea without a lot of sugar. Anyway it was a bit bland for me so when I opted out, the cashier pointed me to another new drink – half-and-half - half iced tea, half lemonade.
I said yes right away without any misgivings and didn't even ask for a test sip. Luckily my instinct did me good for it was a complementing mix of both drinks and I enjoyed it.
Sbarro has never failed me and it will always be on my list of comfort food. Yum yum. ^^

Can't Sign In to Blogger App in iPhone?
Just got my 4S activated and of course one of my top ten apps to download in the App Store is Blogger.
Before downloading, I've read its reviews and some users complained of issues in signing in. Undaunted, I gave it a try and sure enough I also wasn't able to login... Until now.
One has to click on the "can't access" link below the password field and answer the wizard setup. You just have to pick the option that says you know your username and password but can't sign in.
You will then be asked to sign in again using the Blogger app so Google would be able to grant it access. And voila!
This post is brought to you by the Blogger app itself. Enjoy blogging on the go!
