Call for Entries: AIA Philam Life Hackers 2020

 

 

I'm a Computer Engineer. I've spent quite a number of years studying, talking, living, doing the deed as a professional in that field and I love it. I'm no stranger to hacking, I'd consider myself as one of the good guys. I would consider myself lucky to actually land a job earlier than my batch because I got one even before I graduated. The path wasn't easy as I initially didn't have experience, nor did I learn much of practical knowledge and additional certifications I had to take so I could do what I do now. I didn't have a mentor who could teach me the ropes. I dived into books and the internet to get ahead of the pack, and it proved to be very fruitful that I could also talk a lot. I had to do that so I could harness technology, build a portfolio of innovative ideas so I could become someone that a company would find my credentials and use it for the greater good. I barely had opportunities to showcase that after graduating, but today I'm so glad to find out that AIA Philam Life is going to make dreams come true for college students nationwide (by forming a 5 person team, ages 18 and up) through AIA Philam Life Hackers 2020.

AIA Philam Life has always been keen on looking for talent who can do game changing solutions. On their sophomore year, they are holding AIA Philam Life Hackers 2020 with a goal is to help reach their goal of helping Filipinos live healthier, longer, better lives. What's up for grabs is a platform where you can battle it out with the best of the best students in the country, an internship at the country’s premier life insurance company, to learn from expert resource speakers, bring home Php 75,000 cash prize in each of the 3 categories (Best in Technology, Best in Marketing Solution, Best in Product Innovation) and the prestige of winning the biggest hackathon event in the Philippines.

 

Resource speakers include industry leaders Grace David who is the Marketing & Partnership Leader for edukasyon.ph, Joan Magno Product Expert for Canva and Martin Gonzales the Organizational Development and Start Up Leader for Google so be prepared to learn a lot if you qualify.

This would be an awesome way to make your ideas and projects into life.

Jansport Way Out Waistpack On Sale at Shopee 11.11

I don't like fanny packs, let's get that out there because I don't like things that mean to actually store stuff but never does. I need a bigger one especially these days when I need to do errands and I'm glad I found one in Jansport. They call it a Jansport Way Out Waistpack available on the Jansport Official Store in the Shopee app.

https://shopee.ph/product/104227810/5851490932?smtt=0.2158178-1604566915.9

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has owned a Jansport bag all these years. It's a bit pricey but the quality is unquestionable. I personally bought one that lasted my whole college years (5 years for Engineering) and it's still in good shape even after all that daily abuse, and the designs are absolutely cray!

This one is gonna be something that I would use for going to and from errands this pandemic. It can handle masks, wallets, phones which I need to have while riding a bike. What's even better is that they are offering this now for only Php 1494 from the previous price of Php 2490. They will offer this at an even crazier price of Php 1370 during the Shopee 11.11 Big Christmas Sale.

The material is nice and tough, larger than those weird trendy fanny packs that doesn't do anything. Best of all, I know this will last for years because it is a Jansport. Material is made of mesh and soft lined pockets. The zippers are tough and premium, and the straps are comfy, I like how it fits me.

Go download the Shopee app now and see why millions of Filipinos are using it for their online shopping needs. Use a voucher to save and use free shipping too while you wait at the comforts of your home. It's available on Google Play, you're interested of course so go get it!

I'm enjoying the bag today!
