Chirpy chirping birds

Today, I woke up with the most wonderful sound I ever heard. Its very natural and soothing to the ears, I just heard the sound of the chirping birds, as if they were greeting me good morning with warm welcome and much enthusiasm. I realized it was long ago that I appreciated the chirping sounds, there were there every day, its just that I was too busy to listen. May be if I could take time and pause I could even hear the crickets and the many other wonderful sounds God created for me through birds and frogs and crickets. Im guilty of always rushing, running for deadlines and forgot to appreciate even the gentle rays of the sun. I know the chirping sound of the birds were not record breaking on the charts but a manifestation of God's wondrous power.

Water color, my mew template

Well, I got tired of the old Pulse template and have decided to switch to water color template instead. And I guess im going to enjoy the simple of this new template. Its not as complicated as the previous template I had and its just simple and easy to handle and not so fuzzy with no strings attached. I dont know when I will change my mind again, it took me two hours and Im just glad I found water color template.  I just dont know what to blog and im just experimenting and trying to follow instructions when I had a minor problem with the new template.

Im a new andriod fan

I have a cellphone that is already more than 7 years old and though I have seen how techy the new cellphones are I never thought of replacing it with a new one. But now im having problems with my old phone, it turns off whenever someone is calling me and even when its full charged it just turns off and would load longer and often I dont receive text messages.  hen a blessing came, some gave me a new white colored Galaxy pocket by samsung and I can say im a new andriod fan, then I realized how jurassic my old phone was. The new samsung Galaxy pocket is a very nice phone, its handy its not heavy and not so heavy on the budget and very user friendly.

Excited about IOS application for blogger

Im excited about the new IOS application for blogger and I cant wait to try it, but the big question is how am I going to do it without the ipodtouch or iPhone to start with. Well, thats the problem that i have to solve first. Blogger announced that they are also excited like me, its nice to have people looking forward for something techy and all  having this cool announcement from blogger. Its something taht we have in our technology and its good news to those who are savvy and goes what with  whats new around and something thats never been tried. Wanted so much to have this kind of stuff on my phone but I have to secure it first.

Things to do:

1. Save for the target project.
2. Look for cheaper or second items online. Though the new iPhone would be a lot better but Im practical and having second hand items wont bother me. As long as its not damaged and is still fully functional why not? I mean, its something that I can only afford and wont be that heavy on my budget.
3. Seek friends' help in securing the target item, i dont mind if its the older version as long as its iPhone, wahehehehehe, its really what goes with the IOS application and its whats stated there and what they have.
4. Or the last option is to see if it can be done with cheaper phones in the market, coz if its possible then i can settle for other phones that iphone, its quite expensive and maybe it would take me longer to save that amount for the iphone, wahehehehe.

And my list ends there, Id  look for other options and still enthusiastic with the best that blogger can offer to bloggers like me.

Pr dropped from 2 to 1

My pr dropped from  2 to one.I checked it on their site and confirmed that its really my new pr.
Sigh.
Its a sad news to start the day but, its the reality. I know I have been responsible how things went and how it made that drop. I was not that active in updating this blog for I guess there was no motivation enough to post or I just ran out of creative juices to blog about. Well, lesson learned, I have to exert enough effort to give it another chance and to improve it somehow. I have to think of ways to bring it back to life.

Things to do:

1. Update my blog as constant as possible.
2. Post interesting topics, introduce new ideas.
3. Post cute pictures that would also catch the attention of my readers.
4. Make sense on my posts.
5. Comment on other posts to get noticed by other bloggers.
6. Update my rss feeds on facebook so that when I update my blog it automatically adds a link on facebook and there will be traffic through facebook.

Well, that's the list that I'll be doing during the week. I know it wont come overnight but I hope it works and by next month hopefully it will be good news for me.

Sama sa pagsidlak sa adlaw

Sama sa pagsidlak sa adlaw
gibag o mo ang akong kinabuhi.
Sama sa pagtubod sa tubig sa sapa
and gugma mo walay katapusan.

Sama sa hangin
gihatagan mo
ug kagawasan gikan sa sala.
Jesus, salamat sa gugma
salamat sa kaluwasan ko.
mag paabot ako
sa ikaduhang pag balik mo Oh Jesus.

My messy working table


Thats not the best picture of the day I believe, its my small working table, its not actually a table but a mini mini table......Its where I spend the night when I cant sleep and when the wifi is up and running., surfing the net, facebooking and when I get lucky blogging, most of the time, its where I build cityville and conquer the brain eating zombies.

Red velvet vs blueberry cheesecake

blueberry cheesecake
Red velvet
 Red velvet cake is getting famous nowadays looks yummy with the red velvety look that's calling you to have a bite  and I just got curious about the said cake and asked our messenger to buy two cakes, my all time favorite blueberry cheesecake and the red velvet cake. They looked cute round and small, and hmmmm would be enough for four people. I got excited and had a bite of the red velvet, wow it was creamy soft and felt like it melted on my mouth, strawberries, the cream, the taste of vanilla, it was yummy.  Call it bias bu, when i had the bite of my favorite blueberry cheesecake, I said I liked the blueberry cheesecake than the red velvet. Wahehehehehe of course its my favorite and for me its the best cake. Since I dont have an oven at home the simplest cake that I can do for my family is the blue berry cheese cake, I would want to bake but the absence of an oven makes it hard for me to experiment in the kitchen with cakes. But my younger brother said he could bake a using the kaldero  ( cooking pots that filipinos generally use) instead.

So, for you it is blue berry cheesecake or red velvet?

Sendong came and killed hundreds of people, some were our friends, classmates, neighbors,
acquaintances, relatives, friends of friends, church mates, cagay anon and iligans, fellow Filipino. But we are embraced by God's love through using the lives of other people, their help and generosity that indeed though sendong came to help us, friends from afar extended their asistance and generosity. It was a sunday afternoon filled clothes, clothes and bed sheets towels, we enjoyed the company of each  one. To those who gave much much love and gratitude. May God bless you more and more.

Get paid with Intichat

Wow, Im just a little excited and all.
Cathy introduced me Intichat with all the perks and the earnings we could get through having minimum of 5 referrals and a lot more. if this is true then we can enjoy socializing and earning at the same time. Well, all we can do is try and see if the system is working or not. The page looks like facebook but there a few cte things to interest you aside from the earning capability which is laid down. There's this mega points area where you can chose from gadgets to psps and to laptops...sounds exciting and promsing I hope its a happy ever after story and wont end like other scams which polluted the net.

To all happy intichatting

Tuyom and startfishes

I call it tuyom  since I dont know what that black living thing beside the starfishes is called in the english language. Reminds me of happy moments with officemate during summer outing. The smiles of those who were once with us and now already just a memory while others are still here through the many years of hard work. They say its poisonous and the only cure available for that is urine. Yes urine, you heard it right. I have witnessed our officemate sir malon one company outing, he went to the deep part of the sea to snorkel without gear and was not aware that were lots of tuyoms there and he got hurt. The sting according to was painful and so we have to look for a guy to unrinate his foot and then the company nurse helped in getting the black needle like  tuyom from sir marlon's foot. It was a not so nice outing experience for sir marlon and for those who witnessed it , but also a lesson that next time we should be very careful .

Im still trying to think about the english term for tuyom. I need to make more research and post the results here.

Easter sunday food trip

Its easter sunday. Praise God for the message that He prepared for us through His servants and praise God for the fellowship with new friends in Cebu, they are young and are sharing their lives in reaching out to others and spreading the good news to many. Indeed, im energized and challenged to see the kind of fire that's burning in their hearts, you can feel the passion for serving and getting involved in God's work. After the fellowship Wendy cherry and me went to our place and I toured them to my favorite place papakits, wahehehehe, I'll never grow tired going there, the place always reminds me of God's splendor with the creation like a painting changing before my very eyes.

round three....

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain. —Bennard
To escape sin’s curse, run to the cross.

A night @ Max's

After a long day's work, we decided to have a break and treat ourselves with food, food and food. Thats the only four people with different personalties agree, FOOD. So it was Max's, something we have not tried before was the theme but as always we ended ordering the group's favorite Lechon Kawali as the star for the night, sinigang na hipon,  fresh lumpia, buko pandan
 The thought of food comforts me, how comforting it would when Im infront of them to comfort me with the scent and sight of great food . Wow!
im humgry na!

so what's our order?

mam madz you look better when you are smiling, ma Ai you look lovely!

thank you for the kind waiter who took this picture

wow!

fresh lumpia - our starter - love the scent of the veggies and the sauce that melts in your mouth with chewy nuts that compliments with the sauce and the fresh lumpia

ma Ai getting excited and counting the minutes

 I wish I had a bigger stomach to lavish with lots of food, but I only have a limited stomach and could not consume much....
Love this trio...can I ask for more? much more?
Thank you Lord for your provision, for Your faithfulness each day of our lives, even when at times we are not faithful, thank you for the work you have given us through which you use us to serve our subscribers: smiling subscribers, old subscribers, funny subscribers and irate subscribers, thank you for the people that we work with each day, people whom we have have shared or lives with for many years.

Will the Knicks make it to the finals?

Getty Images

For me its a long long way to go and we still have the play offs to consider if they would even qualify, but for me if they will get to the finals thats what you call a miracle, Lin kept saying that all thats happening to his career now is a miracle and it calls for a miracle for them to make it to the finals. For me each game with Lin is always a finals game, with all the cheers and the excitement, each game win or lose is a game worth watching.

Two weddings, one month

Its march not June, but the first month that I made two thank you cards for two weddings.
I had so little time to prepare but I guess the adrenaline rush pushed me to finish the thank you cards on time. I have to do double time and have to endure late sleeping just to finish my target dates.
for March 17, 2012, Kuya Tata's wedding
 The first time I used tulip borders for my thank you cards. I wonder why didnt thought of this the past years. Its another look and a touch of elegance.
March 8, 2012, Jovy's wedding
 The first time I sued the picture background for the design. I just tried one copy 
and when I saw that it was ok to print it using parchment paper.
