Are You Bored with Your Life as a Blogger!

Author: admin // Category: ,
Some of you will not agree because you will tell me that “Blogging is my passion blogging helps me to express my feelings and emotions with my entire life. Everytime I search on Google and found my blog there, I became happy!” But many of you will tell me..”yah, sometimes I feel that lack of thrill and excitement because everyday you’ll gonna think for what to topic or what to blog. Sa una lang masaya pero nakakasawa rin.”
.
These are the reasons that will lead you the way to the answer of “maybe because you are not destined to become a blogger”. Some of you may say that it is only a hobby or pastime but not a lifestyle. And yet, many of you will tell that you are serious about blogging and it is a part of your life…you wont live without your blog..so on and so on.
.
The reason for this post in to give some tips for those people or my friends here in blogosphere who feel the same way of answering the “title post” question..are you bored with your life as a blogger? These maybe simple tips but will help a lot in boosting your morale over the art of blogging.
.
1. Let your own personality shine. It only means that you must write a post coming from your heart. You should always act as if you were talking to a batch of people or even to your best friends telling them about you or what you did yesterday or what your likes and dislike. Some blogger became complacent and just want to tell the world that his/her blog is updated. It means that you are writing a textbook. But this is wrong because most people often read blogs because they want to be entertained, they want to hear opinions, they want to relate with the different stories of life. In conclusion, sometime put a funny stories about your blog. Put interesting topics that will trigger the people to always visit your blog and appreciate your opinions and insights. This is also what I'm doing with my other blog now! Here's the
link...
.
2. Allow comment. Self explanatory..isn’t it? It is one great mistake of a blogger by not allowing his/her audience to comment. It is very important to hear the voice of your reader ,n such a way that you will get the fulfilment and satisfaction of what you have written. You may not always like what they have to comment, but their crisitism will help you a lot in gaining some lessons and relating in their lives too. Create an interesting discussions with your followers. Is it great to have a feeling of…wow! Pinagkakaguluhan ang topic ko?”
.
3. Use pictures, images or even funny cartoons or icons. This is what I did with some of my post. I inserted a lot of pictures so that all of you will relate to my stories. Adding pictures or videos with the content of your posts is important so that your readers will connect on you on a more intense level.Let say my experience in
Anawangin Cove in Zambales, I let everyone see how beautiful the island is and how exciting to go there. See many of you now want to go there and experience what I got in spending there my summer vacation. Just be sure that you will not post nudity or for adult content only..well it depends if most of your readers want that pictures or videos.
.
4. Ask Questions. Don’t be so nurd or autistic as if you own the whole blogging internet world. As if you don’t care what to post. Ask the readers to participate. Ask them they want from you to be featured in your blog. They will be more likely to come back if you will let them to be a part of your blog. Everyone has a unique opinion or ideas that will help you a lot to improve your blog and to spice your blogging career.
.
Use these great tips to avoid boredom with your blog . A boring blog is one that pains people to read. It is a waste of time and why should I waste time for a blog that owned by a boring individual. There are lots of blog there with interesting topics to read. Keep in your mind that successful blogs will make people laugh, think, contemplate, and gain useful information. So what are you waiting for, stand up for a while, take a deep breath and redress your blog now to avoid being boring of doing it.

Swine Virus (A H1N1) Already in the Philippines!

Author: admin // Category:
.
Lubos akong nabahala at natakot sa nabalitaan ngayon sa tv hingil sa pagdating ng A H1N1 Virus o iyong tinatawag nating Swine Virus. Matatandaan natin na nagsimula ang nakamamatay na virus sa bansang Mexico, hangang sa ito ay kumalat sa iba't ibang bansa. Ngayon nandito na sa Pilipinas.
.
Inihayag kahapon ni Department of Health Secretary Francisco Duque and unang insidente ng Swine Virus sa Pilipinas. Isang 10-year-old na babae kasamang umuwi ng magulang sa Pilipinas galing sa isang bansa na may kaso ng nasabing virus.
.
Dumaan sa iba't ibang pagsusuri at examinations ang bata hangang sa maconfirmed na carrier nga ito ng Swine Virus. Ngayon at binibigyan ng ibat ibang gamot ang bata upang ito ay gumaling. Base sa huling report, nawala na ang lagnat at ubo ng bata ngunit mayroon pa rin itong sore throat.
.
Ngayon nalaman na natin na nandito na ang virus sa bansa, ano nga ba ang dapat nating gawin. Dapat ba tayong matakot o magsawalang bahala. Dapat lamang na maging alerto tyo ngayon at ating alamin ang mga precautionary measures upang maiwasan natin ang sakit na ito.
.
Maghugas mabuti ng kamay, magpalakas, kumain ng tama, matulog ng husto, uminom ng mga bitamina, umiwas sa mataong lugar ang ilan lamang sa mga mungkahing nabasa ko. Ang pinakaimportante dito ay ang magdasal sa Poong Maykapal na gabayan tayo at patigilin ang pagkalat ng nasabing virus.
.
Ngayon, saan ka magsisimula? Ano ang gagawin mo kung isang araw paggising mo, nasa lugar nyo na pala ang nasabing Swine Virus?

Maiinit-init na balita lingid sa pagkalat ng video scandal ni Katrina Halili at ng dating kasintahan na doctor ni Vicky Belo na si Hayden Kho, ngayon balita sa SNN (Showbiz News Ngayon). Nakakaawa lang tingnan ang babae dahil sa pagkalat ng video na ito. Ayon sa dalaga, lubos na naapektuhan ang kanyang pamilya hinggil sa isang malaking issue na kinasangkutan nya.

Ngayon ay minumungkahi ni Senator Bong Revilla na tanggalan ng lisensya bilang doctor si Hayden Kho kaugnay sa escandalong ito. Lubos lubos ring nasasaktan ang kasalukuyang kasintahan ni Katrina Halili na si Kris Lawrence sa kinasangkutan ito ng dalaga. Nataon pa na magrerelease ng bagong album ngayon ang lalaking singer at ang latest single nya ay ang kantang "Careless Whisper", na mismong kantang inaawit nina Hayden at Katrina sa video...tsk tsk tsk!
.
Ang sa akin lamang, hindi man lang naawa ang gumawa at nagsetup ng videong ito kung ano ang magiging epekto nito sa mga kasangkot. Maraming pamilya ang madadamay at maraming tao ang masasaktan sa kahihiyang ito.

Who will be this season’s American Idol Winner? Will it be Adam Lambert or Kris Allen. Next week we will know who between the two American Idol Season 8 top two will win the American Idol 2009 Finale.
.
Many of my officemates and friends say that another rock star will win the title. So it must be Adam Lambert? But many of my girl friends love Kris Allen so much that’s why they are praying that he must win and declare as the American Idol Season 8 Winner.
.
Simon Cowell predicted that the American Idol Season 8 Winner is Adam Lambert. I also read many American Idol 2009 predictions but based on all the informations that I’ve gained , my fearless forecast to win is Kris Allen. Well Im also pretty sure that he might win the coveted title.
.
Who is the American Idol Season 8 Winner is the common question in the corporate world as well as in the town right now and should be looking forward to being answered in the finale night next week. Either a 27-year-old theatre actor who we considered as a rock star from San Diego named Adam Lambert, or the 23-year old heartthrob and a college student from Conway, Arkansas name Kris Allen will be proclaimed as the American Idol. I am sure that everybody is excited to see the result. So we better tune up on our cable and television next week and let us find out if Kris Allen or Adam Lambert was proclaimed as the American Idol Season 8 Winner.

Sandra Seifert is Miss Philippines-Earth 2009

Author: admin // Category: , ,
.

I’m not into beauty pageant blogging, but due to the request of my friend, who is a beauty queen here in our city and also a beauty pageant fanatic, and since I don’t have something to post now, that’s why I granted her request to feature the latest result of Miss Philippines-Earth 2009.
.
A 25-year-old Filipina-German nurse and a fashion model from Negros Occidental was crowned Miss Philippines- Earth 2009 last night, May 10 televised at ABS-CBN.
.
Sandra Seifert, bested 49 other candidates from various cities and provinces all over the Philippines. She will represent the Philippines for the Miss Earth 2009 pageant this coming November.
.
If we will recall, Seifert puts into limelight and became controversial when she was disqualified by Binibining Pilipinas when she posed sexy for a men’s magazine.
.
She impressed the judges with her answer to the final question “with global environment changing, what would you like to change in yourself that will make you a better pro-environment person?’’ She answered that she became aware of environmental issues when she joined the said contest, adding that her basic awareness to the problems would help in the protection of the environment.
.
Miss Philippines- Earth held annually to search for the most beautiful Filipina who will promote environmental campaigns and who will address issues regarding saving our environment. The winner also serve as the spokesperson for the Miss Earth Foundation and other environmental organizations.

Aside from Seifert, Grezilda Adelantar was named Miss Phillipines Eco Tourism and Miss PAGCOR; Miss Philippines Fire is Patricia Marie Tumulak from Quezon City; Miss Philippines Air is Michelle Martha Braun of Aklan and Miss Philippines Water is Catherin Loyola of Sydney, Australia.

Donya na Si Nanay Dionisia Pacquiao

Author: admin // Category: ,
.
Dahil Mother's Day ngayon, isang pagkilala sa nanatanging ina ang handog kong blog post ngayon. Walang iba kung hindi si Nanay Dionisia Pacquiao. Malaki ang naging papel nya upang makilala sa buong mundo ang sikat na boksingero at Pambansang Kamao natin na si Manny Pacquiao at paulit ulit na maitatak sa mapa ng mundo ang bansang Pilipinas. Bakit kamo, kung wala si Nanay Dionisia, wala rin tayong Pacman. Kahapon lamang ay napanood ko sa tv na itinampok si Nanay Dionisia at isinalaysay ang buhay nila.
.
Napakalaking sakripisyo ang ibinahagi ng dakilang ina noong hindi pa sikat at kampeon si Manny. Katulad ng ibang ina, walang hinangad si Nanay Dionisia kundi ang mapabuti at itaguyod ang kanyang mga anak kahit mahirap ang buhay nila nuon. At strikto daw si nanay sa pagpapalaki sa mga anak niya. Hanggang ngayon nga ay sinasabi ni Manny na wala na syang kinatatakutang kalabanin. Isa lang daw ang kinatatakutan nya ngayon at iyon ay ang kanyang Nanay.
.
Nakatutuwa rin isipin na dahil sa tamang pagpapalaki at pagtataguyod sa mga anak nya, ngayon eto na ang buhay nila. Buhay Donya na sya ngayon. Lahat ng luho at importanteng bagay para mabuhay ang tao ay kaya na nyang bilhin. Kamakailan lamang ay nagawa na nyang pumunta sa US para suportahan ang kanyang anak sa laban nito.
.
Isa rin sigurong dahilan kung bakit lubos lubos ang biyayang natatanggap nya ngayon ay dahil sa pagiging relihiyosa nya at pagiging malapit sa Diyos. Sabi nga nya nuon gusto daw nyang maging Pari si Manny Pacquiao. At ibinahagi rin nya na kaya daw malakas sya sa Panginoon dahil tuwing magdadasal sya, iniisip nya na nasa harap lang ang Diyos at kausap nya ng taimtim at galing sa puso.
.
Lubos akong napahanga sa kanya sa pagiging mapagkumbaba sa kabila ng kasaganahan na tinatamasa nila sa buhay ngayon. Sabi nya, sya pa rin daw ang dating Dionisia, wala raw nagbago maliban sa kanyang pisikal na anyo, mga alahas at magagandang damit.
.
Tunay ngang isa kang huwarang ina! Isang inang dapat dakilain at ipagmalaki sa buong mundo. Maraming salamat sa iyo Nanay Dionisia, ng dahil sa iyo at sa pamamagitan ni Manny Pacquiao, napagbuklod-buklod at napagkaisa mo ang sambayanang Pilipino. Isang kang ehemplo sa lahat ng mga Nanay sa buong mundo. Karapat dapat lamang na kilalanin ka at parangalan sa iyong nagawang maganda sa bansang Pilipinas.
.
Happy Mother's Day sa iyo, sa aking ina at sa lahat ng ina sa buong mundo!

Happy Mother's Day

Author: admin // Category: , ,

.
.
Ilang oras na lamang ang nalalabi at araw na ng isa sa maituturing natin na dakilang tao sa mundong ito. At ito ay ang ating mga nanay, mommy, mom, mama, mudra, mother, inang, ina, naynay, momsi o kung ano pa ang tawag natin. Karapatdapat lamang na bigyan sila ng isang araw na pagkilala dahil sa pinakadakilang ginawa nila..at iyon ay alagaan tayo, palakihin sa maayos na paraan, damitan, pakainin at turuan ng tamang ugali at leksyon sa buhay.
.
Dahil sa espesyal na araw na ito naisipan ko nuong isang araw na magpost tungkol sa Mother's Day Promo sa isang sikat na hotel sa Makati. Isang napakagandang package ang offer ng nasabing hotel upang bigyan ng reward o gift ang ating mga nanay bilang pagkilala at pasasalamat sa lahat ng magandang ginawa sa buhay natin at sa ganun paraan ay nakatipid na rin tayo sa gastos. Agad agad akong naginquire sa nasabing hotel matapos kong makita ang ads na iyon.
.
Dahil Mother's Day na nga..naisipan ko rin bilhan ng bagong cellphone ang aking dakilang ina para naman matuwa sya sa akin. Nakakaaawa rin kasing tingnan na nagttyaga sya ngayon sa lumang modelo ng Nokia kaya naisipan kong i-upgrade ang unit nya. Tiyak na matutuwa sya at magyayabang na naman iyon sa mga amiga nya. At dahil nalalapit na rin ang bonus sa office, naisipan ko rin bilhan ng bagong damit ang nanay ko. Swerte nya ngayon at ang daming kong regalo sa kanya ngayon taon.
.
Sa lahat ng ina sa buong Pilipinas at saan mang dako ng mundo, ikinatutuwa ko at lubos ko kayong binabati ng Happy Mother's Day!
.
Kayo ano ang regalo nyo sa mga nanay nyo? Share nyo naman sa akin.

Hello Tweetter! I love Twitter now!

Author: admin // Category: , , ,
.
.
Last month, when I started blogging and making post entries, I met a lot of friends while blogging. As I passed and visited their blog, I've noticed a small icon with a bird until I found out the this is the Twitter.com that Tweet Tweet. So if you are a Twitter user, some people will call you a Tweetter. Para sa kaalaman ng lahat,specially those who are new with Twitter. Isa itong social networking site (like Friendster, Facebook and MySpace) that will allow you to add and follow friends and collegues not only in the Philippines but also around the world. Sa pamamagitang ng Twitter, maari nyong maupdate ang mga friends nyo tungkol sa mga nangyayari sa buhay nyo o kaya kung blogger ka, pwede kang gumawa ng link post dito ang lahat ng mga articles or entries mo sa blog mo nang sa gayun ay maraming makabasa ng blog post.
.
Nagulat din ako ng madiscover ko na ilan sa mga sikat na tao ay gumagamit rin ng Twitter katulad nila Oprah, Mariah Carey and US President Obama. Hindi ko rin naisip na ang Tweetter din pala ang tutulong sa akin para makilala ang blog ko at may bumasa ng mga blog posts or entries ko. Dahil din sa social site na ito, natrace ko ang ibang mga kamag-anak ko sa ibang bansa na matagal ko nang hindi nacocontact at nakikita.
.
Nabasa ko rin ang isang article na Twitter can also a source of money. Actually this is my 1st time to post with regards to making money online. At first, gusto ko lang maggain ng traffic para lang makilala ang blog ko at may makaapreciate ng mga gawa ko. Yun pala pede rin palang kumita sa mga gawa mo. Sa pamamagitan ng Tweetter maari mong ma-ilink ang blog mo at makagawa ka ng malaking traffic at now you are making money online.
.
Sooner or later, I will share you on how to increase your followers at Twitter.com, im just compiling all my research and studies with regards to this issue. Because the more follower the more chance that you can gain big traffic at your site and more chance of making money from your site/blog.
.
Kaya ano pa hinihintay nyo. visit Twitter.com and magregister na kayo ng account nyo. Para sa mga gusto ako i-follow, wag na po kayong mahiya at magatubili, just add or follow me http://twitter.com/crisiboy o di kaya iclick nyo lang ung icon ng Follow Me Twitter sa upper right sidebar ko.

Happy Twit Twit to everyone!

Anawangin, Camara & Capones Islands Hopping

Author: admin // Category: , , , ,
.
.
This is probably my one of the best summer escapades in my entire summer vacations every year. The idea of island hopping just came out last 2 weeks when one of my officemates invite me to join in the trip. Actually hindi ko planado this year na pumunta sa island na un, ewan ko ba kung anong nagtulak sa akin para sumama.
.
.
Day 1: 11:30pm, April 30, 2009
.
Impuntong nagkitakita kami sa Victory Liner Station sa Monumento, Caloocan. Nagkaroon ng kaguluhan sa loob ng station. Nagpanic ang lahat dahil sa akalang wala ng bus na darating papuntang Zambales. Nagkatulakan, nagkabalyahan at maraming naiipit makasakay lang sa kakaunting bus na nakahanay. Dapat sisihin ang mismong Bus Liner dahil sa kawalan ng sistema lalo na kapag sumasapit ang long weekend and holidays. But we dont have any choice because this is the online liner who goes in the said province. Mabilis ang byahe naming dahil 2:30am pa lang nasa San Antonio, Zambales na kami. Nagpasya na kami agad na pumunta sa Pundaquit Island upang tumuloy sa isang Resort. Nahirapan pa kami sa paghahanap dahil walang kailaw-ilaw sa daan hangang marating namin ang Wild Rose Resort. Maganda ang lugar, malinis at kumpleto sa mga facilities. Pagttyagaan mo nga lang ang katarayan ng mayari ng resort..hehehe...
.
Day 2: 7:00am, May 1, 2009
.
Umagang umaga pa lang ay abalang abala na kami sa pagaayos papuntang Anawangin Cove. Sa Pundaquit Beach kami naghanap ng bangkang masasakyan papunta sa nasabing Isla. According to the driver, it will take a 30 minutes ride going to the Cove. So medyo takot ang lahat kasi mahaba haba rin un na nasa gitna kami ng karagatan.
.
We were at the beachfront of Pundaquit Island



The Pundaquit Beachfront

Top View of Pundaquit Beach
.

7:30am, May 1, 2009 : ANAWANGIN COVE
.
Anawangin Cove according to the people in Zambales, is a crescent shaped cove that has an off-white sand and an evergreen forest near the seashore. What makes the place unique is the unsual riddle of tall pine trees around the vicinity. Behind the said forest is a small stream that flows out to the sea. The sand in Anawangin cove is purely Mt. Pinatubo lahar. The pine trees, (actually Agoho trees) did not exist in the area before the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo. Looks like the ash fall somehow brought with it Agoho seeds as well and they grew into the forest we see at Anawangin today. No roads leading to the said Cove, that is why it is only accessible by a 30 minute boat ride from Pundaquit, San Antonio or by a six-hour trek through open trails in Pundaquit range. There are no commercial resort in the Islands with just a few huts and deep wells.
.

The Anawangin Cove




Its me in the sand..

There are no facilities in Anawangin Cove. That’s why we only bring personal things and food for our lunch and merienda. Please be also reminded to bring your own purified water to drink. As we go along the shore, marami na rin palang pumupunta ditto at nagtatayo ng tent for an overnight sleep. We only decided to stay at the cove until 6:00pm. Mahirap kasing magbangka pag gabi na sobrang lakas ng mga alon.

.

6:00pm- Bumalik kami ng Pundaquit Beach dala ang ang masasayang alaala at adventure na naiwan namin sa Anawangin and we promise to come back soon. Advise lang sa lahat kung takot kayo sa malalaking alon. Huwag nyo na pagisipan umuwi ng 6pm kasi nakakatakot talaga ang mga alon. Roller Coaster ride ang naranasan namin sa sobrang lakas ng mga alon. Pagkabalik namin sa Wild Rose Resort..party time! Lubus lubusin ang bakasyon, 12am na kami natapos maginuman at magvideoke. Lahat ay lasing at umaasang magigising ng maaga para sa aming next Island hopping.

.

Day 3, 8:00am, May 2, 2009

.

Dahil lasing ang lahat..kaya late kami nagising. Nagdadalawang isip pa kami kung tutuloy pa kami for the next Island hopping. Pero agad agad na nagdecide since nandun na kami lahat. Diretso kami sa Camara Island.
.
8:15am- CAMARA ISLAND
.
Camara Island can be seen from the shore of Pundaquit in San Antonio Zambales. The island is a big lump of rock, with very little soil. Its rock walls are good for climbing that mountaineering clubs hold rapelling activities here.Trees aren’t that many but because of the rock formations and angle of the island, it’s not hard to find shade and scenic spots for a great photo shoot. The island has two sides separated by a white sandbar that becomes visible during lowtide. Sad to say we did not witness the sandbar because it is high tide when we got there. The island has a lot of seaweeds in the sea shore mainly because no one maintains it.




12:00nn- CAPONES ISLAND
.
Capones is famous for its average yet manageable surfs. It is nearby the shore of San Antonio. This island house the Faro Capones, a still functioning Spanish-era lighthouse. Overnight stay is allowed but with prearranged pickup with a boatman. The island has a crystal clear water along the beach yet you may enjoy swimming, snorkel and explore the surroundings by simply walks and discover the natural beauty of it.




.
2:00 p.m.- We decided to go back the Wild Rose Resort. It was an exciting and adventurous summer trip to this wonderful island. Hope I could come back in this places for the next years to come. Im sure everyone will cherish all the memories brought by our trip. Until now I still in the midst of mesmerizing with the fascinated beauty of the beaches.

Pacquiao KOs Hatton

Author: admin // Category: , , ,
..
People's champ Manny Pacquiao scored a sensational second round knock out victory over Ricky Hatton Saturday (Sunday in Manila), decking the Brit three times during their "Battle of East and West" superfight at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
.
Pacquiao floored the Hitman twice in the first round before ending the fight with a hard left to the jaw that sent Hatton sprawling to the canvass. Referee Kenny Bayless looked at the unmoving Hatton and waved his hands to end the fight.
.
The fight ended 2 minutes, 59 seconds into the second round.
.
"I didn't realize it would be a short fight. That was my strategy, left hook and right hook, that was going to be the key to this fight. I expected my right hook to be dangerous for him," Pacquiao said in the post-fight interview.
.
The win is Pacquiao's 49th victory in 54 fights and garnered the Filipino champ Hatton's International Boxing Organization 140-lb crown as well as The Ring junior welterweight championship.
