the socks

hope you all had fun and enjoyed the christmas celebration... thankfully i was able to feel the spirit of christmas at the last minute (i aint mrs. scrooge yahoo!)

so what brought me back the cheer of celebrating christmas? it wasnt the wrapping and receiving of gifts, it wasnt the booze, nor the christmas carols that brings me nostalgic moments, nor the bibingka (i just have to go to tayuman if i want to eat bibingka anytime of the year noh) ..... its the socks!


i felt like a kid again all giddy and excited at the thought of hanging socks to get the much awaited present from Santa Claus! Nope, the socks aint for me but for my nephews, we hanged it for them with a promise that when they wake up at christmas morning it'll be filled with a gift from Santa ... and boy they were so excited (they only appreciate it now that they're a bit older).

i remember when i was a kid how i always anticipate christmas eve, trying my best not to sleep so i can catch Santa when he visit our house to bring our gifts! yeah, never been lucky though! i know i'm so gullible... was already 12 when i learned that Santa aint real. but still its a very nice tradition.

my christmas spirit dampen at around 7pm, guess i ate too much i had a tummy ache =( we're supposed to go to star city but i was so sick, but i guess the tummy ache's a blessing in disguise na rin, coz i saw on tv patrol that star city was so full. anyways i had fun, hope you had a wonderful christmas too.

getting business minded

I’ve been thinking of selling native products online since there are more than 11 million overseas Filipino workers scattered across the globe and they are my target customers. I already have the market because I know that Filipinos abroad would love to taste their favorite native delicacy such as bibingka, biko, ube, and a lot more. I just didn’t know how to set up an online store. Good thing I’ve discovered Ashop Commerce, a leading provider of hosted shopping cart software which offers a complete solution for a wannabe merchant like me.

Setting up an account with Ashop Commerce is so easy like 123 and they even have an ongoing 10day free trial promotion. It is web based so non-techy like me need not worry how to install the ecommerce software, it is affordable and easy to use… you can start putting up your products on the shelf right away! Ashop Commerce is the way to go in starting your own shopping cart online. I cant wait to tell my friend Malen, about this discovery so she can set up her own shopping cart software and sell her Reyna Elena merchandise online too.

goodbye

a month from now i'll be saying my goodbye to you my favorite companion, you'll always be my best stress buster ever... i have to write it down to remind myself that i have to end this. as much as i want to continue this addicting habit of mine, i have to think of my health (oh who am i kidding, i dont care about my health... i'm worried about my skin! oh yeah vanity speaks).

when i told my friends that i am leaving you they just laugh at me and said "yeah right"... i know i'd been saying i'll quit for the longest time ever and for the nth time already, guess i always break the vows i make.. but this time i want to do it. so why wait a month? why not start now? i'm procastinating i know! i just really hope that i can leave you for good... this time around.

Planning your next trip? You can find great destinations and fantastic deals at Hotel Reservations without the hassle of leaving the comfort of your home.


The best thing about Hotel Reservations is that they have tons of choices to choose from since they are offering different packages be it hotels, resorts, vacation rentals, etc. What really catch my attention is that they are offering competitive prices and great discounts, you can even save up to 70%, so how cool is that? I’ve bookmarked their website already since I’m planning to go on a trip a month from now.

partee

Last Friday we had our uber sosyal office Christmas party ever! (with eyes rolling using my saccharine voice) yeah I am being sarcastic in here. I know, I know! I should be forgiving since it’s the season to be merry and all that yadda yadda but I’m just really annoyed that the anticipated party of the year was planned in just mere 20minutes! Y’all know how big Christmas parties are celebrated in this part of the world and for the last two years, our party were prepared months in advanced… with all the usual trappings but this year nada, as in zero! It was like, ok so you want a partee, fine… lets do it tomorrow, see y’all at the Conference Room A. That’s it! Wow ansaya saya diba?

attention rachel: you missed the "fun"!!!

Well at least, the hr personnel were able to get a caterer for the last minute preparation and of course there’s still booze but really, our cocktail parties are much better than this.

Here’s some of the photos, in fairness it looks like I’m having fun here hehehe. Meet some of my patients at the geriatrics ward… mommee dorcs and moi with DS, PJ, and TS... really sometimes it feels like im a caregiver to these senior citizens!



Oh aside from being a bdo/caregiver, im an entertainer too! Which means I have to laugh at their corny jokes and pretend that I enjoy listening to their chit chat! =) LOL



mommee dorcs and our pres goofing around



the BD team (OT pa yan after the partee huh)



some of my officemates





ok, so to entertain ourselves we had a hahaha photoshoot







my minions ogling at my sexy sandals hehehe



Leni brought her wow magic sing which lift up the party mood for those who love to sing, No i didnt sing! just clown around those who belt it out that night.









moi, leslie, michelle, joy, glei, and dhey
PS di ako lashenga.. me hawak lang lagi ako wine glass nauuhaw kc ako! LOL)



moi and the ever beautiful dhey who looks like ruffa mae.



hope you guys enjoyed your own office christmas party...

where do you get your visitors?

i've often wondered where my visitors came from, that is before i learned of sitemeter.com and that putting google adsense can also track how people found my blog, what keywords they type in to get to me.

there are some funny and weird keywords that people search that somehow the mighty google refer them to my blog... but here's the list of keywords that continuously give me visitors, no matter if i dont update my blog for a month or so, these keywords will give me visitors, i guess that's what they call the power of SEO... not that this blog is famous or anything but thought you might find this useful, funny, or whatever.

ojofuffo - this post has given me thousands of visitors and still is giving me visitors, was just starting to blog in blogger when i got this quiz and after solving it i've blogged the answers, guess i'm the first one who spilled the answers on the net. i remember getting sad before because i dont have a reader from the philippines when i was starting, i used to have visitors mainly from UK, then US of A, India, then all the tan ending countries, etc. i guess the quiz is in Brazil now =)

canon service center - am pretty sure canon's not happy about this particular post because i rant on their shitty service here ;p

there are other keywords that give me constant visitors but this keyword is what i like the most! maganda - kelangan pa bang i-memorize yan? LOL hahaha walang kokontra, blog ko to! go search google and you'll find me! hahahaha

so how about you guys? how do they find you? what keywords bring you visitors?

get that dream


I just signed up with payperpost a few days ago and my blog got approved last night, I was so eager to post something about my payperpost account but alas I cant keep my eyes open, so I am just now telling you guys that I am officially blogging for money! Well not really blogging just for money, promise I’ll still write stuff about myself and my misadventures (yeah as if I’m a celebrity and the world cares what I do).

Enough about me, I want to thank all my friends who encouraged me to sign up with payperpost, especially to MALEN, who opened my eyes and made me realized that I can earn big time bucks through blogging. I was like, what? I’ve been blogging for years just for the heck of it and didn’t realized just how good the paycheck blogging can bring me. Thanks again to you guys for opening my eyes and showing me how to do it. So to those of you who haven’t joined the bandwagon yet, sign up now!

I am certain that signing up with payperpost is the first step in getting my hands on my dream camera, the Canon EOS 1-D Mark III. So what are you waiting for? Stop dreaming about the things you want to buy, sign up in payperpost to get that dream and then brag err blog about it.

mark

i love mark and i swear i'm going to have him... by hook or by crook! =)
i have been fantasizing about him ever since i saw him, his elegant look coupled with features to die for, all things you could ever want from a... camera!



my dream camera, the canon EOS 1-D Mark III

blog for money

I’ve read a lot of stuff already about earning money through blogging, from friends who blog and from professional bloggers as well who have their own success story. I’ve been blogging for almost three years now and I said to myself, since I love blogging why not write and get paid for blogging at the same time? Good thing I’ve learned about Smorty! Signing up with Smorty is so easy, just go to http://www.smorty.com and you are one click away to start earning money online.

I know, you are apprehensive to blog for money, I’ve had some reservations too… but with Smorty, I realized that I can still write stuff that I like without compromising the content of my blog, I can pick subjects that I want and feels passionate about and share my own opinions about it. Remember, Christmas is fast approaching my dears and we need more money to spend this holiday season.
