: Most Searched Posts in my Blog :

I've noticed lately that I have few posts on my blog that have been searched in yahoo or google many times and this made me happy of course. I guess because of the keywords in it or maybe people need to search something about that topic.

No. 1 will be my FRUIT SALAD RECIPE - most of my visitors came here in the Phils., I am just amazed bec. I guess many wants to make one for their yummy treat. Try googling the keyword "fruit salad recipe" and this post will come 1st on the result. Good eh?!

No.2 is my I GOT MY POST ID post- my post will be 4th when you search POSTAL ID keyword on google.

No. 3 is HAVE YOU TRIED CRAZY CREPES? -the yummy crepes that I once tasted.

No. 4 is my SETTING UP YOUR DOMAIN YOU BOUGHT AT 1AND1 AND BLOGGER AS YOUR HOST, -- I also posted this at my other 2 blogs and they are well searched and viewed too.

: New Header for my Sister :

I made this header for my sister JOYD's blog who is living in Australia for quite a while now and it was only now that I was able to put it on her blog. When I showed this to her one time she immediately liked it. I am sure she will still tweak the colors of the links and other widgets.

Hope you can visit her Blog. THE WAY OF LIFE IN OZ.

: Busy, busy, busy :

I am so glad that I have a good day today here at my store. My customers keep coming in and that is very very good for me. I have been assisting my customers on their internet works bec. some don't know how to browse the net with ease. I also have printing jobs and scanning as well. Some days are not like this so I am happy that I am busy with my work around here. I am also busy with my blogs, updating them and kinda tweaking templates too. I also got some few online works that will keep me busy till tomorrow. Right now, I feel I am blessed with the small things that I got today. Thanks Lord!

: Overwhelming Blogs :

I was surfing and blog hopping today and I was so overwhelmed bec. many people have been blogging now all over the world. Pinoys have been blogging to the highest power now esp. when paypal opened their doors for us. The youngest blogger that I came across from 14 yrs. old and wow she is into monetizing her blog too, very clever little girl. I guess she is using her mom or parent's paypal for that.

Anyway, there are many interesting blogs that I came across, some have nice headers too but some have very messy or should I say too much blinkies or widgets that is a sore to the eyes sometimes, others have blogs that load slow maybe due to their server. I also noticed that a lot of SAHM (stay at home moms) are into blogging now and many have been considering of earning some income too via online. I see no reason now why those Marketing for moms consultancy firms have been targeting them. It's fun to see people blog about their life, experiences, tips and I think blogging is here to stay for a long long time..

: So LittleTime :

It's Sunday and I am blogging today, I am suppose to be out giving myself a treat at the mall or somewhere else but I opted to stay here in front of my computer. I have so many things to do online, I want to surf a lot, make my assignments, drop entercard, make a new header, download freebies, make digital scrap and much more but I have so little time to do all of those. It is exhausting at times but I pooofff my life is online every day now. My off line work also needs me to be on my computer so I have no choice but to on my pc. Oh well, before I rant so much here, I better get things done

: I've Joined the Entrecard Bandwagon :

I have been seeing and hearing about Entercard for quite a while now and I just thought it is just nothing. I started hearing from other bloggers that their traffic increased tremendously so I thought that Entrecard really does help gain more traffic and visitors so I decided to join the bandwagon just yesterday.


I am still reading info on how it works and I reckon I can fully understand it in no time, I bet it is much easier to learn the mechanics of it than to know to study the strategy for international taxes, pheww that topic is hard to digest. Anyway, I am dropping my card since last night and I’ve got few drops as well. Still don’t know how to advertise to other site hehehe.. I bet I still need to read, read and read.

Oh BTW, you can drop your card at my site, just look at the entrecard icon on the right sidebar, ok.

: Straight in the Bin !!! :

I am just so glad that i have been moderating all the comments here on my blog bec. there are some jerk individuals who would only comment just for the sake of getting a backlink from me (I'm a Do follower) or just to advertise their products/services.

And just today, one attempted to put a comment but it was a copy paste of what is written on my last post. Do you think i will approve that? NO WAY.. lol. People are sometimes crazy you know.

I love receiving comments from my visitors but when it is senseless I don't like it. Just to let you know I will not approve any comments like that or with comments like " Wow" "Nice", "Great", Good Post etc. This is my blog so I have every right to ban, delete and approve comments.

: Finally my Paypal got Verified !!:

I decided to get my own Debit card at Union Bank to get my paypal verified since i will not be using my sister's paypal anymore.

Here are the steps to have your paypal verified:

1. Apply for an EON Visa Electron Debit card online at UNION BANK , wait for 5 banking days
2. Go to the Union Bank branch where you specified in your application to get the card. Bring 3 valid IDs and have it photocopied bec. the bank will get it, i didn't bring any fortunately the bank has a photocopy machine.
3. Sign up a form in the bank and pay an annual fee of P350.00 the teller will give you your card.
4. Be sure and NEVER forget to at least deposit P200 or p300 (or equivalent to $1.95) to your account for paypal purpose. Wait for 1 week for activation. ( I forgot to make a deposit so I asked my friend to deposit in behalf of me)
5. After one week or so, enroll your ENROLL your debit card at Union Bank online Banking, just follow the steps
6. Go to your Paypal account and ADD your debit card, make sure you have the same billing address or else your card will not add. Once approved wait for about 3 days to LINK your card.
7.Check your account at Union Bank to see if you have been deducted the equivalent of $1.95
8. After 3 days get your 4-digit Paypal Expanded Code though your online account at Union Bank.

I never bothered to call Union bank's customer service to get the code bec. it is always busy, it is much faster to get it at your online account.
9. Go to your Paypal account again and link your debit card and put your 4digit code to lift all the limits of sending, receiving and withdrawing. Submit and if your code is correct it will be verified.

Wow, look so easy isn't it? Just follow all the steps and you'll be verified in a blink. It took me so long bec. i missed one step.. ngek

: 25 Incredibly Artistic Websites :

Been surfing the net since this morning hoping to find some good inspiration for the new header that I wanted that will replace this current header of mine. As you all know I have an artistic nephew and niece that can help me make am illustration. Anyway as I was browsing online, I stumbled upon Vandely's lists of 25 Incredibly Artistic Websites and I was amazed how beautiful were the original illustrations of the web owners.

How I wish I am as talented as they are. Here are my personal pick among the 25.

Click Images to go to their sites

: Strike While the Iron is Hot :

That is what I told to my friend who has recently joined the blogging bandwagon. I have influenced her when she saw me writing stuff here on my blog and in no time I thought her some tips on making her own. With a little patience and perseverance she and I have been making little extra on our online works and who will not be so thankful for that? We are so grateful bec. we can now put a little bit (or more) on our savings accounts that when emergency comes we have something to get. I know nothing is permanent and things or jobs will slowly become scarce bec. of the heavy influx of bloggers in the recent months.

PR also contributes to get more jobs and bloggers all know that. Right now I don’t have that but I am still thankful that I still have work from time to time while my bestfriend got lots of works that sometimes she has no time to do them. I told her to grab, write while the iron is hot since this will not stay forever.

: Too much Requirements :

I was browsing for some opportunities to write for my blogs just few minutes ago and I can't help but to laugh and ask if that advertiser is crazy ...lol .
Here are the requirements:
* 300 words
* pr 3
* 3 links
* you must complete review within 24 hrs

and do you want to know how much the co. will pay????? Don't laugh, only $3.00, are you kidding me??? LOL I don't know if there is any blogger with a right mind would accept that, good luck hahaha. That advertiser loves the no. 3! weeh

:Ahhh there's the spark:

I have been blogging for over 3 years now and I have met lots of online friends here in our country and from other countries. It’s always nice to interact with them even for a while leaving notes or little tags on their blogs. This has been a wonderful experience for me bec. not only I can share a piece of myself, my thoughts, great finds, ideas or rants but I have the opportunity to mingle or exchange ideas with different bloggers with different cultures and beliefs. I was also able to get some profits out of my blog by reviewing products or services which I reckon is cool thing to do as long as I am true to what I am saying then I don’t see getting paid for a review as a bad thing to do as a blogger.

There are many bloggers out there that don’t agree with this but they do have a point bec. some bloggers just in for the moolah (and why not????) every one wants to have some piece of cake. Anyway, with my desire to expound myself being a blogger, I have been reading lots about
SocialSpark and I thought there’s nothing wrong joining them and see what they have to offer. I created my profile which I will edit and put more info there in a while and I hope to meet lots of bloggers from all over the world. I have not browsed the site very much as it was too overwhelming for me at this point but all I know was bloggers and advertisers can meet in this one whole community and I believe we can benefit from this. I also learned that my coblogger Jenr was in there and saw her profile, I just salute this woman bec. she’s a full time mom and wife but still manages to balance them with blogging and other activities online. Gotta go now to browse and learn more about the site.

: New Header for my Fashion Blog :

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
I've been changing headers for all of my blogs and I want my shopping blog to be different. I was lucky enough to have a very talented niece and nephew that will help me make a personalized drawing.

My niece FRANCES MARIE "Kukay" was very talented and good in drawings just like her brother Pinoy Blogero KARLO so I asked her one time to draw me a girl carrying shopping bags and I was pleased with what she made for me. And since we don't have a (Wacom) tablet that professionals use, she just made a sketch on paper. My nephew JEREL, who is an advertising student was the one who put the colors using photoshop. I just told him what color combination I want.

When they finished it, I then made it into a header and put my blog's name on it and here it is. Isn't it cute??? Oh BTW, artists runs in our family hehe.

Please take a moment to view my fashion blog
THIS AND THAT.

: I made some blog headers :

My sister JoyD and my bestfriend Race, asked me to make new headers for their blogs. And since i know how to make one and I have some digital stuff from my collection, I was able to make them new headers that they liked. At first I had a hard time thinking what design to put and what layout since I don't know what theme they want.

Sis Joy just wanted a cute header so I put some cute elements on it and she liked it anyway; Here are the headers that I made for her 2 blogs.

Just click the header to go to their blogs.

I also tweaked few layouts for my bestfriend RACE and this is what I made for her.

: Delete me and I will delete you too :

Sigh........, i just noticed lately that there are bloggers whom I have ex-linked long time ago have deleted me already from their blogroll. I jusr found it out when I went blog hoppin' when I was still in Sydney and just lately when I am back here in Pinas. Saw around 3 or 4 bloggers who have erased me from their list. I think this is not a nice thing to do. So what I did was to erase them also from my list and would even bother to go at their blogs anymore. Such a shame for them to do that and it is but unfair, isn't it? Booooo.....

: My See-saw PR :

Alright the buzz is again here as Google made another update, just found out that this blog of mine became zero again. Originally it was PR3 >>Pr0 then PR2> then 0 again, wow it's a see-saw. Oh well i will have to wait for another update after 3months and hopefully Google can give my PR back.

My other blog SIMPLY JEN became PR2 after being 0 for a long time and my other blogs remain at 0. Hahaha. Anyway, i don't want to focus on my PR anymore, i will just continue to post good and informative articles here.

I am happy and sad at the same time, what about you any changes in your PR's lately?

: New Look !

Finally I was able to change my header today and I think it's quite alright. I want it simple this time so I made it at my PSP8 this morning. I love the paper background by Redju, stitching by Natali and the butterfly sticker by Val Barbieri so credit goes to them.

It's done now but i reckon i still need to change my photo and some widgets there. I hope you like it.

This blog needs a facelift!

Are you getting bored with my header and color scheme? I do actually, it's been a while since I changed the look of this blog and I reckon it's about time to give it a fresh new look. I am back now using my pc where all my graphics and programs are installed so I have the liberty to make new headers.

I have been busy working on my new blog Jenny Said So, it's already up so this blog needs my attention too. Hopefully if I am inspired enough I will make a new header. BTW, if you haven't visited my new blog yet, pls. visit it now bec. it will make me so happy !!!!
