Winning on blog contest
Written by on August 27, 2008 – 7:52 am -
I’ve noticed recently that blog contests are quite a hit for bloggers out there. I myself have won one from Em’s blog a something purple prize. And just as I was doing my rounds of blog hopping, almost half of the blogs I’ve visited are either having a blog contest or participants of it.
Well, I think blog contest are one of the easiest way for you to earn some money for the mechanics are so easy for you to do. Some just require a link of your post to their blog, will ask you to subscribe on their feeds, do comments on their post. No sweat right?! and the prize? some offer cold cash directly onto your paypal account, some do give freebies, DIY stuffs, a review and link up to your blog. Second it drives traffic to your blogs and will increase readership. Third, it is enjoyable the way it is being a contest itself right?! I’ m thinking of joining more of the blog contests I may find. LOL!

Olympics has finally ended
Written by on August 26, 2008 – 8:03 am -
The 888 thingy that says is a good luck doesn’t apply to our Philippine team again.we didn’t bagged any gold medal once again. oh wait, there is one filipino who were able to bring a gold medal but was not on the Olympics category games which is the Wushu demonstration!
Closing ceremony highlights David Beckham by kicking off to the olympic athletes his soccer ball which marks the handover of the Olympics 2012 Olympics being held in London, England.
We do hope that we’ll be able to take home gold medal this time as we Filipinos are hungered by it for the past years now… And I guess the government needs to focus on our athletes needs for them to regain their pride and strength for our country’s gain as well.

I started reading books to gabby since she was 4 mos. It became a habit when she turned one. She would ask me to read her a book before bedtime. She enjoys reading on her own too. We do buy her activity books but it is her Tita Irma who sends her books every now and then from Australia, since children’s books are pretty much cheaper there. and i guess I need to prepare for her education for her online college degree Most of her books are kept in a closed cabinet because Nicco would definitely tear every pages of the book whenever he got one.

Memes are a great way to link everyone together. In Cyberspace, many people use English as the Universal Language and say Hi, Hello and more. Have you tried learning other languages of the same meaning?
Let’s get to know each other by placing a welcome/hello greeting in your language and spread it over all bloggers in cyberspace.
Rules:
1. Copy the text from Start Copy Here
2. Post it in your blog. Make sure you copy it in compose mode (blogger) or visual mode for the others. This will enable you to copy all your friend’s link as well. Have fun doing it.

4. Add the greetings that you use frequently or one that is in your traditional language.

Written by on August 19, 2008 – 2:23 am -If you remember THIS it has arrived weeks ago… too bad I wasn’t able to take photos of it’s content because it arrived early morning while I was at the office. Just as when I arrived home in the evening, hubby and kids already have opened it up and definitely have enjoyed the goodies…
what remains for me to take a shot is this one…
Last Saturday, another goodies were sent via Ate Irma’s MIL who went home from attending the World Youth Day in Australia.
and Nicco would’nt want to take it off even if he has swollen toes due to his kalikutan.
