How Higher Education Has Changed Throughout History

Higher education is something that has become a necessity. If you want to get a good job in your life, it seems that you absolutely must get a good education. This isn’t the way that it always was. In years gone by, education at the higher level used to be more of a luxury. Therefore not everybody could afford it, nor did they even look into it. In the not so distant past, people of different races and genders didn’t get the higher education that is now available to them. This is something that has evolved through the years tremendously and has taken on different shapes and paths. So for those that are interested, it may be worth noting just how it has evolved.

It Is More Accessible

Online learning was never even a possibility or even something that people could dream up. If they wanted to get their education, it simply happened in a classroom and that was it. Education, particularly at the college or university level has become so much more accessible. There are so many more options now than there used to be. There are so many more learning institutions and possible avenues like never before. People of any age, income bracket, or walk of life can get the higher education that they want and deserve. Though they may not have a university right around the corner, that doesn’t matter. They can fit their education into their schedule, work around a full time job or family commitments. They can even get their entire degree from the comfort of their own home, and that’s huge progress.

More People Are Pursuing and Requiring It

The accessibility of higher education has come about because so many more people require it. There are so many more jobs that demand a degree and competition is much higher than ever before. If people want to progress in their careers then they must get a degree and seek out the education that works best for them. Even those who work as professionals must often seek another or higher level degree if they wish to progress to the next level. This is a big difference than ever before because it means that if you want to succeed in your professional life, you simply must get the degree. So with the accessibility has come an increased demand for education like never before.

There Are So Many More Avenues

There used to be only a few fundamental degrees that people could obtain if they wanted the higher level education. Wow, how times have changed! Now the landscape is very full of different options. If you have an interest, a hobby, or a given talent, then there is bound to be a degree for it. This is different than ever before because people used to feel a bit more pigeonholed into one of only a few options. Now you can turn your interests into a degree and use that to your advantage. It is well worth looking into because just as higher education has evolved, so have the choices available to those that take advantage of it.

The Doom Of The Broom

I mentioned before that I really liked using walis tambo.. OK that was before my maids left me.. err because I am not the one swiping the floor! Now after three months of no helpers and a lot of pain reliever for my backs, I need change!

Having 4 kids (3 boys and a girl) is no joke. The floor needs constant sweeping and not to mention I need to make it as clean as possible for the little girl. Sati loves picking whatever there is on the floor and put it on her mouth. Yes, from bread crumbs to broken crayolas! What makes it more difficult is the fact that Sati loves crawling under the table, a part of the house that is hardest to clean.

Why is it hard to clean?

 

The use of walis tambo makes it hard to swipe under the table, I have to endure back pains and if I want to make sure it is really clean, I need to move the dinning table and the chairs. Move it back to where they are placed after swiping. But as I sweep the other parts of the house, certain particles flew under the table.. it seems like I need to do it all over again just to make sure there’s no particles left under the table.

My walis tambo miseries does not end there.. The one I am suing now is of no good quality.. every time I sweep the floor, parts of it fell on the floor, making it harder and more inconvinitet for me.. I fear the time will come that my hair will be as thin as my walis tambo due to kunsumisyon (waaaah I hope not!)

Ohh.. HAIRS! please don’t let me start with it.. because hair and walis tambo does not go well. They hate each other? detest each other? because no matter what I do, no matter how much sweeping I do, fallen hairs are just tehre. Walis tambo can’t make my house fallen hair free! (I even changed my shampoo to reduce hair fall).

So what choice do I have? stock on pain relievers for my back? be bald to prevent hair fall? but obviously,

I need change! I want to start the doom of the broom. I need help!

 

Now.. this kind of gadget is what I need.. and for sure, with it, I cn smile just like the lady in this picture hehe

Types Of House Flooring

I wouldn’t be enumerating the different types if flooring but rather the types of flooring that I would want to have in my future home. Basically, there are more than ten types of flooring and choosing from them can be a bit hard. I am thorned between hard wood flooring, bamboo flooring or marble flooring. I am also eying Laminate Flooring since it is cheaper and is also scratch resistant. It can also stand high traffic, perfect for the living room or the kitchen area. Also a great flooring for the kid’s playroom.

Bamboo flooring is gaining more popularity due to its color that is unique to bamboo. It is also said to be more environmental friendly as Bamboo is a grass and not a tree. Planting Bamboo, I believed, is easier too.  Hard Wood floorings are of course, can last really long. This has been the most popular choice of home owners. If it is on our second floor, these two are my choice of flooring materials. When it comes to the first floor of the house, as I have mentioned, it can be laminate or marble.

Coupons And Savings

It’s no secret that I always look for sale, discounts and coupons. Being a mother of four kids, I always look for buying option that will give me a lot of savings.

Lately, I have been spending some time on websites that offer discounts. I was able to buy a hair treatment at 70% off. I bought 3 coupons, one for me and two for my sisters. And then early this week, I bought 2 food coupons for a Kapampangan resto at 50% off.  I’m planning to buy coupon for a massage theraphy. It’s a good stress buster and a good way to spend time with my husband. If there would be a coupon for an online degree programs, I’m sure a lot of moms would be interested.

Another offer that’s selling like hotcakes are travel coupons.

 

The Best Work At Home Furniture

As a work at home mommy, I finally realized (yes it took me some years and a lot of back ache) that I need to invest in a good computer table and a good computer chair. Right now, I am using a good old office table from my husband’s old office. It’s big and spacious and I like the height of it. Another thing, I also like the edge of this table as it is round. The feel of the edge is not rubbing against my wrist and arms. I am now contented with my table but if I would want to change, I would opt for Howard computer cabinets. It’s can save a lot of space and it’s very tidy too. As with the chair, I am currently using one of th chairs of our dinning table. I badly need a computer chair. The one with a good arm rest and a good back support.

For those working at home moms, invest in a good furniture to help you work better. A nice table and a comfortable chair can really make a huge difference.
