A Surprising Page Rank Thursday, May 12, 2011

I have not been able to update my blogs lately (and I plan on doing so), as a lot of things have happened in our lives recently. Some good, some bad, but basically the bad things didn't kill us so it only made us stronger, lol! So out of curiosity, I decided to look up the current page ranks of all of my blogs. I used a site called Check Page Rank and was pleasantly surprised to find that this blog had a PR2. Yay!

All I can say is that I will try as hard as I can to squeeze in even just a half hour to making one post a day for each week on this blog.

Better Luck Next Time Monday, January 10, 2011

Oh well, I didn't win the UnionBank Tweet to Win Promo last Christmas. :(

I would have liked to have that Sony bloggie camera, I think it's absolutely cute. I know, I have a camera in my iPod, a digital camera, and a camera in my Nokia 5800, but this one seems super convenient in terms of uploading what you've captured on it. Since it has a USB connector in it, all you have to do is to plug it into the USB slot of your computer. You can also directly upload to YouTube and other popular sites.

I guess if time and finances permit, I should try to scout this camera out. Or, I can just save up for a DSLR. Or better yet, I should just use the gadgets I already have. :P

Happy New Year!!! Saturday, January 01, 2011

Excited about UnionBank's Tweet to Win Promo! Monday, December 27, 2010

Tomorrow will be the announcement of the winner for UnionBank's Tweet to Win Promo. I submitted an entry a few days ago, and I am hoping against hope that I will get picked. I've always wanted a video camera, and I've wanted it now more than ever.

You see, a lot of my relatives did come home for the holidays this year, except for my favorite uncle who's also my godfather. He just started a new job in Canada and can't afford to take a break as of yet. I haven't seen him since I was in high school when he last came home to the country when my grandfather (his father) passed away.

Since my aunt is here, I was planning on making several videos for him which I can transfer to a flash drive, and then he can watch it when my aunt comes back to Canada. I think a couple of videos would be a lot better than a greeting card. :) So that bloggie video camera prize will be really great.

Home for the Holidays Saturday, December 25, 2010

A lot of my relatives have been coming home from different parts of the world, mostly in the US. My favorite cousin from California came home, and she works as a nurse there. So while we were chatting with how her life and work is in a foreign country, she had a lot of stories to tell about her life in scrubs, as she calls it.

Since I'm not a nurse and my college degree isn't in any way related to medicine, I asked her what that meant. She explained that scrubs are actually medical nursing uniforms that they wear whenever they're at work. This kind of reminded me of being in school where everybody wore the same clothing as our uniform while in school, so I imagined this would be kind of the same for her.

But then, she explained this wasn't the case because you can purchase scrub sets of different colors, and some with different patterns as well. I guess that really helps in breaking the monotony of everybody wearing the same thing all the time.

My cousin then said she enjoys life in California, but nothing compares to being home for the holidays. :)

Merry Christmas! Saturday, December 25, 2010
