When Writing

I sometimes wonder if the things I write have been plagiarized in one way or another. I know I've been writing articles since college and I only employ the general proprietorship on them but most of them have been copied like the term papers and projects I made from way back. I got paid for some of them but some of the other ones were passed on to other batches. I learned that the hard way and I couldn't do anything about it. If that content was made on line I'm sure that'll be a bigger story. Copywriting Services should have protected me from those unimaginative people who couldn't do their own articles. It's not that I don't want to share information but at least I would be glad if I was compensated or mentioned as the source. If I made it I should be credited for it much like any writer would love.

I would love to also have my work protected. I'm sure you would too. If there was something we ordinary people could do in order to protect it then by all means please do help us. Content is so hard to find these days but that should not be an excuse. These could be done by professionals and I wouldn't mind if they take the first step. I would gladly oblige and check if this is worth it. I'm sure a lot of people would like to know.

How about you web masters? Do you think content is important? Do you also take measures to protect it? Care to share your experience?

Happy Thanksgiving!

I don't want to be antisocial so let's start by greeting you dear readers a very Happy Thanksgiving! I know it is not that much celebrated in the Philippines but since I have friends and people from work in the US why shouldn't I be happy for them right? I know most of you are working for people there too. Indeed I'm so glad we get to have some of that holiday spirit here too. I just had turkey at home. I didn't know Mom would cook hehe!

I'm already getting stuffed with the stuffing I couldn't move. Well almost haha! I'll make some of those turkey sandwiches tomorrow because I'm sure there will be leftovers. Dad didn't like some parts of the turkey because it was too tough. I like it though but it is pretty hard to chew when I'm being chased by the toothfairy since last week. Oh if you only knew how I sometimes cry over dinner. It's keeping me from eating too much though which is OK for my diet in someway or another.

That's another story... I would really love to greet everyone a happy thanksgiving and make sure you read about it on why they celebrate it in the US before you do enjoy this day. We're lucky we never had to chase birds like back then. Happy Thanksgiving!

HONDA It Is!

I want a new car. I've been using the van for quite some time now and it does the job. I need something handy though. I lack the parking space at home and I couldn't just gamble and park outside. I was thinking of getting a used honda because I have heard good reviews. The color though is not negotiable because I want it black. I might need financing fixed so I could get it on the first quarter and use it for work. I know this is going to be another purchase but these days it has become a necessity. I have asked my Dad to get another section of the garage constructed for parking space since the van is already occupying the front of our house. It will coincide with the construction of our street and pavement. I'm sure it will be a little troublesome for most of our neighbors but since the city government wanted to make every sidewalk into bricks we can't do anything about it.

It will be a good thing to buy and I'm sure it is going to be beneficial on those short trips. I don't want to carry around the van because it is too big. I couldn't even go on U turn slots without crossing the other lane just to have lee way. The diesel engine is one of the perks though and that saved me a lot for quite a number of years. I'm not complaining don't get me wrong but if I get this car it'll be easier for me to get around the metro. I need to carry some of my photography equipments too and this one is surely going to be beneficial to me and my family. If you want a second car would you choose the same?

I'm being hounded by the tooth fairy. I tried to ignore it but I think I'll have my doctor do this on Sunday. I hope it all goes away.

I'm watching Hellcats. Some show over ETC. It's nice and a little interesting. I want to see some more episodes just like Walking Dead. Have you guys watched that show? Awesome huh?!

I love LOVE. Don't get me wrong, but I ain't interested in those that I don't like in the first place so don't force me okay?

I am trying to eat a little healthy before I pig out on Christmas. Yeah I have to maintain weight and waistlines just like everyone else. I look perfect but I ain't. It's so close though that it frightens me hahahaha!

I want to go to work now. I am early though but I need to finish a couple of documents for next week. It's going to be busy after Thanksgiving. Oh where's your Turkey?

I'm craving for chocolate covered bacon. I remember that clearly from the food event I went to last year. I need to go to BGC and their new market to get some. I heard it from the grapevine. I'm surely going there this weekend. Anyone wanna hang out?

I'm so lame I wanna hit people on the street. Blast them all to bits. Traffic in Manila is ridiculous!

How do you handle debt?

I've been having a lot of problems lately because I couldn't think of a way to quickly pay my bills. To say the least, the quick trips out of the country have not helped at all because of the fact that I haven't eased out shopping. I need to also buy gifts for the people back at home and that's another story. Just think about how much I had to spend on hotel and ticket reservations and I'm sure you have got a rough estimate how much I owe the banks. I need debt management strategies that are above the ordinary or else I'll stay working longer hours just to pay a not so payable debt. That's just not right!

I need to stay optimistic though that even if I end up using the stashed millions I have in the bank I still could pay up what I owe in my cards and creditors. That would be the smart thing to do so I wouldn't just pay interest rates from the amount which I originally have to pay for. I have to also maximize the perks that came with the subscription too otherwise the annual fee is also going to kill me. I know I can do this. I just have to ask the experts. I should start looking for people who do this professionally too so I wouldn't have to just stay under debt when the time comes.

How do you handle debt? How do you pay for it without ending bankrupt? You should tell me your stories too!

I just saw my first crush. Yeah you heard it right but to tell you honestly she didn't look right. I felt I was so fortunate to not to have ended up with her. Not to be mean but I'd go for the improvement of my race. That really made me so thankful I didn't get married so early too because that may probably be the same fate I'd say I'd be in if I didn't zip up when the time calls for it. I wouldn't go into the details of my nightlife because this is supposed to be a wholesome lifestyle site. Not so much now eh?!

Santa Claus just crossed me out on his list this year. I hate him but I don't know if he's just teasing and include me before Christmas. So to you Santa, be cool and get me that Wii I've been asking to buy myself darn it! I need it for my folks hehehe... I'll ask them to play interactive games at home. Wouldn't that be a great idea? My PS2 is gathering dust and I don't use it anymore, that is just one sad story. Donate a Wii Console now, call me!

I'm thinking of going to that formal Thanksgiving party later but I think it'll be better if I don't. I hate fancy dinners. But if they would give me a condo unit why not LOL!
People, please stop liking your own statuses on Facebook! It just ain't right. It is so annoying and I'm still seeing a lot of my friends do it, JMJ! Get a life! Hehehe.

Teri Hatcher is my favorite desperate housewife. I almost kicked my TV set when they sent rumors that she is not going to finish the next season. Good thing she dispelled rumors after a few days, I won't watch anymore if they did that. I think she promised to be there until the show gets canceled. That's great news... or maybe we can put her on Cougartown. Now that's gonna be sexy! FTW!

I'm drinking my favorite MoguMogu again. I've been doing this the past few days. It's really yummy. I couldn't last the day without it. I wish there was someway I could get my Water Chestnut fix here in the Philippines. I miss Water Chestnut bigtime! Mogumogu is a close second. Someone get me that please!

I'm hungry but I've got to go back to the gym. I know... how plastic can I get LOL!

Did You Know I Was EMO?!

I did go through a phase where being alone and hurting was the only way of life. I admit that I have been introverted throughout college and I'm not ashamed to be called EMO. It's really a way of life and I don't know what I could have been without experiencing that. I also got into friends who are in the same state as I am and that made life easier for me. Today it is so easy to get together on line because of Emo Chat city and that is not even half of what you can do there. Aside from connecting with friends on the same predicament, you get to enjoy what you are doing because you know how they feel. You are like kindred spirits!

You can also get to win prizes and giveaways. It is a whole community, people from different walks of life that merge and enjoy each others company. I just got them on my social network. If you are in this state it would be so nice to get to know more people in the same lifestyle. Oh how I wish I could turn back time and get back to that look that I so adore! It's cool to be different and it is awesome to be EMO. Need I say more?!

Have you ever been EMO?! Tell me when and how!

The COMPLEX Lifestyle Store Launch!

It's so COMPLEX!

Just a stone's throw away from my office is the Eastwood Mall and I must say I've been there quite a lot because of its obvious proximity to shops, movies, restaurants, you name it they've got it!

This time however it's all about shoes, yeah the addicted boy succumbs to his wishes again and pretended not to mind the shoes (I had 30+ pairs at home already get the point?!) but I really did. This is the COMPLEX Store... I was drooling the moment I arrived at the event and why not! There was Marc Ecko, Zoo York, PONY among others that I truly adore... from classic ones to sneakers, oh boy the colors were just awesome! My Size 11 (foot) was screaming for justice and want to own a new pair! There's also a collaboration between some local designers and those in the US; it was so nice to see that. If I had the chance, I'd design my own line of shoes soon!


Here are some of the highlights!

This guy and Sanya Smith hosted this event. (Sorry name recall ain't for me! LOL)

Zoo York Clothes, awesome shoes shoes shoes!

The clothes were casual - street wear. Definitely possible to mix and match.

Need I say more?! I was definitely in Shangrila that night! (Eastwood but it was like shoe heaven!)

After the show of course we were treated to something good. Us-2 Evil-0 also performed! Definitely my taste of music!

It was also a treat to see one of my favorite bloggers Mitch Dulce. She's a Milliner/Designer/Corsetiere and I admire her awesome love for fashion and the arts! She's also making names for the Philippines in UK, Japan and elsewhere in the world. Soooo Cute!... *CRINGE*

I also got to see Electrolychee and WeWillDoodle as they made the works of art that will be displayed on the store. They were really good believe me! =)



It was an awesome night. I got to satisfy my need for art, entertainment and SHOES! I already shopped there just now. You should do that soon too! =) Lots of must haves for Christmas! Make sure you drop by the Complex Lifestyle Store at the Second Level of Eastwood Mall! See you there!

Be Safe!

Sometimes there are things that you never want to happen. This evening while I was lounging around my home I stood up and suddenly slipped into a complete split. I got my skin cut by a nail sticking out the hardwood floor and there was blood everywhere. I was so afraid it was going to be something serious that I needed Michael Pines to sue the contractors but I was relieved when the bleeding stopped. I had to check in the hospital just to make sure I didn't get any infection and they got the whole thing bandaged; sent me home after a couple of minutes. I was so glad it didn't turn out that bad.

My Grandpa fell in a mall escalator and got 3 of his ribs broken but that time it was serious. He had to be brought to the hospital and operated on. He stayed there for weeks and needed a lot of things to recuperate because of his weak constitution. I was glad he was sent home after a month and a half. Clearly something had to be done so he got his lawyers to sue the mall because it was clearly their fault. He got compensated for the suffering brought about by this experience. I hope it doesn't happen to anyone. I'm glad he's trying to live a normal life even with the stitches and scars of the incident. I hope we all try to learn how to live safely. Accidents like these could happen to anyone, anytime. Be safe!

This happened to me so it can happen to you too! I'm not joking! So try your best to be safe guys!

I need to do this every once in a while or else I'll burst!

I haven't got a haircut for the longest time. What am I doing? Am I gonna grow this out and get my hair long again? Oooh how I wish it was that easy. You would need to go through an awkward phase again if I do that. That would look very unprofessional though. Heheh =)

I want to shoot whoever is in the DOT. Didn't he hear the people? Someone is definitely NOT thinking. It ain't me obviously!

Blogger friends are either celebrating or leaving. Am I going to celebrate something too? Hmmm... I'm still thinking about it though. Maybe if I get to pay my bills I'll have a contest soon. You need to make an effort though and that wouldn't be easy. =)

I want to go out but I'm really tired from all the things we did this week. I want to get a massage for the longest time but oh boy, I haven't figured out where to get it! Help!

I'm having problems uploading videos in facebook, is it just me or is it just me? LOL What the hell is wrong with this thing! This is supposed to be easy!

Why are other people successful and others are not? It's because of FEAR... just the notion of not trying will never get you anywhere... so I need to do what I need to do. You do yours! =)

Go away! LOL
