A PowerPoint presentation can often mean the difference between a winning and losing bid for an important client, or perhaps the difference between getting promoted at work, or having to give congratulations to a competing co-worker. So it goes without saying that if you're wanting to impress your boss, a client, or a prospective client, you'll want to put together a professional and elegant slideshow that showcases all you have to offer.

But there may be instances where you don't have the time or energy required to create a winning slideshow. Or, you may not be familiar with more recent versions of PowerPoint. If this is the case, you'll want to outsource your slideshow needs to a professional company that specializes in slideshow creation. Cost-wise, the majority of PowerPoint designers charge by the hour, though some may charge by project. It's important to consult with a designer ahead of time and to give them a detailed idea of the type of slideshow presentation you're looking for. This way, you both know the expectations, as well as the estimated fees. Depending on the complexity and detail of your presentation, you can expect the overall costs to be in the ballpark of a couple of hundred to a couple of thousand dollars. But again, you'll want to consult with your designer for a more specific quote.

Rainy days and Mondays sometimes gets me down...

That lyric of the song just came randomly on my mind.

It's Monday, another manic Monday.

I've got so many things to do, many papers to check, many deadline to beat yet I do not have the complete energy to do it. I felt like 'exhausted' even if I wasn't able to start anything yet. 

There's one thing in my mind that somehow bothers me- Can I survive the rest of the day?

I could only hope so. 

I was part of the school team for Early Registration Campaign which brought us to 3 elementary schools. Our last stop was at Taguanao Elementary School. It is quite far from the city proper and it was surrounded with mountainous area. When we get there, it somehow brought my memory back in my elementary school in Bukidnon. I just love the ambiance. It was just a small vicinity and there's only one section for the sixth grader-our main target.

I met one special child student. He is already 16 years old and perhaps the oldest among the class. He write slowly. His adviser filled up the Early Registration form for him then I assisted for the second copy. What struck me most about him is that he is very patient in copying all the data on the first form. I instructed him to write CDO instead of spelling it out yet he opt to copy everything on the first form. Upon leaving, he is the only one who waved us goodbye.

Grade VI- Generous

He might be having a learning deficiency, but his patience and determination will surely brought him farther to his dreams.
