Hoping to get a free domain name

I just entered sofabulous Domain Giveaway, because I'm desperate for a free domain name and hosting. haha ! Yesterday I found out in our Webdev class ; a subject about making websites , that we are required to have our own domain name. So in hopes that I would win this contest ,at least I have saved money in buying one right? But if I wouldn't, I don't have a choice but to buy of course.

Actually, I have high hopes in winning this.(Keep the positive vibes coming!) Oooh, , it's not that I only want it, I need this badly. Fortunately the owner of the contest , Jen told me about this in my chat box. I think it's really a great sign that she's hosting this because I need one for class right this instant. Anyway to all the participants including me, good luck! :)

My Prized Possession : Diary

I already have 4 diaries, of which I wrote the things that happened on my everyday life, though the first diary consisted of only my amazing 3rd year in high school. Things that made me happy, inspired , confused , sad ,and mad are written there. It’s not that always updated though because I only put things that can spice up my diary, and sometimes I forgot or not in the mood to write because sometimes in a day I almost done nothing but the usual stuff, like school related activities and such. 

My current diary became not the usual diary anymore but more of a journal, I wrote all my thoughts in life , my questions and some of my opinions about things. I also put some things that I'm grateful for , and some little precious moments and favorites, suddenly my diary/journal is quickly close to being full. I get inspired and happy whenever I write there, most of the time I’m alone doing it. There were times that I read them altogether again and it made me reminisce and laugh that I was too immature in those days . It’s great having a diary because it can bring you back to the times when you were happy, sad or mad and all were just a part of you. Those times that I was fighting for being the representative of cotillion in our class ,those difficult projects in high school , that time when I was nervous to getting in college , and what would it be like, that happy moment when my college friends surprised me for my 17th birthday , that moment when I celebrated my debut, and the time when my grandmother was gone and other things that I’ve experienced .

I always thought that what if I already have a diary when I was even younger , that would be so much awesome and epic . So , I pledge to always have a diary/ journal whenever another one is full because another wonderful adventure awaits me , and reading back all those moments were priceless. I also thought that if I’m going to be a mother someday and old I would make my children and grandchildren read them and they would know what I have been through all those times. Something concrete and written by my own hands is something I can also be proud of because time can’t erase them anymore, and if I put these all to the internet it’s not going to be like the traditional one , because it’s way too different to have a diary written by your own handwriting. Just like recently , I was mad at myself for being clumsy and I wrote it to my diary just to throw it out, in my writing you can see all the anger and lonely thoughts , because I just scribble all the words inside my head, no thinking for minutes , just puting all my anger in paper (of which I think ruined my “this must be a clean ,orderly and colorful diary”). I didn’t regret writing it because I realize that at least I had let go of that emotion , and seeing it made me laugh .

I consider my diaries as my treasure in life , and as a lesson too. It made me more mature and pro in handling life in my hands. Browsing them brings joy to me , and seeing how much I’ve grown through the years give me hope and dream. It’s one of the greatest things I’ve achieved in life.

Bringing back the Past

While I was sitting on the couch listening to my ipod, my eyes were wandering on our bookshelf because it was just beside me, and as I saw the book I quickly grab it. That book was here in our house even when I was a kid, and I haven't even bother to touch and read it. It was a History book,of course as a kid I find it boring before , so when I opened and browsed through it yesterday , as if it was still brand new. I then realized that it was the only book in the collection that was still clean and free of our little doodles when we were young , comparing to other books that were somehow already looked ruined , some pages were torn and full of our handwritings and drawings. First, I looked at all the pictures of the book until the end before I read it. I had read the history of mankind, how people thought and lived before, and many other ancient things . The kind of writing in that book seems to talk to a child, and how embarrassed I was that I came to the realize that I should have read this book a long time ago. But still , I enjoyed remembering the things that I have learned before because of that book. I stumbled upon an article that tells on how first farming began , and I was amused that I only knew that information yesterday. As I was reading the book , my mind became curious on what kind of life people were living before , and how fascinating it was that they came to discover something. It was really a simple life. How amazed I was when I read through the articles related to Greek and Romans, because it was one of my favorites in history. How they became the advanced civilized people on earth because of just one people who ruled them, Julius Caesar . (Oh my these are only basics and I already forgot !)I also came across the article of Buddha knowing him and how his religion began even for just a short article was truly great . I admit that I’m not really that familiar about him because that was not thought fully to me at school but knowing him and what he has done was a big eye opener for me, on how he believed in simple living brings peace to our life, and how he seek to find everlasting peace. I also read about many other things and when I knew them I was glad .
I did not finish the book though, but I will soon. I still want to know many great things about the history of the earth because by knowing them also brings me back to the past and somehow live the way they live. And because of another reason that I love learning about History. Reading this book and knowing these stuff is still majestic to me because I also tend to forgot them already as I became busy in college and these things are not that talked about and taught again at my course. As they always say that the past is what makes us today and history is still continuing no matter what.

A Perfect Ambiance

Yesterday we were at Balagtas, Bulacan to celebrate the anniversary ofmy mom's and aunts' salon the "Hair Kingdom" , we got there at 11 am. We ate lunch and just roam around the mall , like we always do as we get there anytime, we also tasted a very delicius buko shake. It was a feast justlike before, and of course another mini get together at least.

Bulacan isn't that very far from our home, it's only one and a half hour ride away. But for at least in that hour I got to experience roadtrip , which I'd love to experience even it's a big headache to sit for hours in some long drives , for me it's seeing the beautiful sceneries that matter most. Staring outside to view at the green trees and the sky above is really inspiring for me. I have the chance to look at the simple but astounding view of the nature for minutes and take time to appreciate them. When we were heading home , I saw another wonderful color of the sky again and I'm very happy to just stare at it . When I saw the ambiance outside in a lazy afternoon, it made me want to go out , walk and just feel it through my skin as if I'm in a perfect extraodrinary place, but I can't because I was in the car and we must go home and also as if my parents would let me. I tell you I think that's the perfect ambiance you can possibly think of, the presence of the wind was cold and fresh, the sky was a mix of purple and orange in color , the trees were relaxing to seeand the road was free of other cars and people , in short a heaven like place to be at. Though several minutes after I got tired suddenly and eventually fell to sleep.I wish I would see and feel another fantastic view like this again.

Baguio Fever

Me and my family went to Baguio last year for our summer vacation. We were very happy when we got there because of the cold weather, it's as if we're in another country. Me and my siblings were always kidding ourselves that we would live there in the future because of the cold weather. Walking there didn't give me sweat , the breeze is so refreshing even though it's summer , you can never feel the heat in that place. I just love it , I enjoyed the coldness and the smell of fresh air. The taxi we had ridden didn't use the aircon already ,so the cost of the transportation was cheap. I remember when we got to the strawberry field, although we didn't see many strawberries because some were still small and some were still growing underground, it was an epic experience walking there and just seeing the view. Baguio is known for strawberries, so wherever you go , you would see different stores selling strawberries or food with strawberry flavor, some were strawberry jam , strawberry taho and icecream.
I began to love this place of course because of its weather and because of its beautiful scenery. Such a lovely place to stay at. We got the chance to do many things there like riding a boat, riding a horse visit awesome places, and many other things that I already forgot. Plus , it also rained there one day that made the weather more colder and it's really amazing.Everything about Baguio is nice. I really want to go there again badly!

I dream Bigtime

I have tons of dreams, first of it all is this: I want to become a singer. This is something I have dreamt of ever since. I want to become someone people know from this field. Someone who is singing her heart out on a stage in front of many people, and giving them her best that she had paid for years and years of practice and hope . Singing not only to get known for, but to make others happy especially to those who want to be a singer just like me. Another thing is I want to become a writer, may it be in a magazine or in a lifestyle section in a newspaper. Knowing that I have the potential to write makes me want to write some more and more , until I squeezed all the creative juices in my head. Stories and experiences move me and I want to share them to people through my own words. I also dream of travelling the world, learn all the cultures , languages , and history of a country. See one of a kind places and their people and the way they live. See all the different wonders of the earth. I also want to direct a movie, now this is something that I have thought of about recently. Watching different movies inspires me and knowing the different stories it delivers , is really awesome for me. I have dreamt of making the script , cast all the characters ,and provide the setting where to shoot.Seems I did everything? What a wonderful experience it is to see my story being act by and made into a movie someday. Next is, I want to be a webdesigner, it still gives me headaches whenever I do codes, it's really difficult learning this. But seeing other pages with beautiful designs , boost my curiosity again on how to make one and made me hope that someday I too can make it. I also want to design posters , layout magazines and make a cartoon show. These things are related to my course and so I started to enjoy them and dream of being good in these things.

Last thing, I want to own a big house ,learn to drive a car and just be happy with life. For everything that is listed above has its purpose I believe , and if I just hope and dream these things can happen because nothing is impossible. Life is too short to do just one thing if you can do many and other great things you can possibly think of. And I hope someday that my dreams will be larger in the future because I keep on dreaming and believing that they will happen.

My first love: Singing

I love singing, that's a fact. As far as I remember I was in second grade when I realize that I love singing. My mom told me I sang even younger than that, but for me second grade was the earliest memory I can remember . Whenever I sing I feel energetic , happy and relaxed. This is my first love before traveling, writing , reading and other stuff that I can do. This is something I wouldn't trade for, let them take away my other abilities and skills but this. Singing literally relieves me every after hard works from school and other activities. Whenever I feel singing I do it for the purpose of because I just want to and because it makes me happy, my day wouln't be complete without doing it , believe me. Sometimes even late at night I sang softly , because I feel it. It's like peeing , you burst it out because you have to and nothing can take over your way, for me singing is like that . I find my voice golden and precious , not to show off but the songs that went out my mouth is wonderful to my ears ,I don't care what people think of it . If you ask my siblings they are always my victims, listening to me sing everyday at our house, I feel sorry for them because I always disturb them with my voice. Sorry! I hope you still like my singing until the end.

As you know from my previous posts, besides writing my thoughts because I'm the silent-type , I sing my favorite songs , or some random songs that I like. This is another way for me to express myself. It also gives me joy whenever I sing to others and they would love it, they help me overcome my fear of singing in front of other people. Seeing them especially my family , faithfully listening to me sing makes me happy and proud that I can share this talent that I hide for so long. I'm glad that other people also appreciates my talent , their appreciation encourage me to get better and continue to do what I love the most. Sometimes when it just popped into my mind, I still can't believe that I have this talent, it felt like a dream that I can do this thing, I ask myself if this is true, but when I sing I realize that it is true. 18 long years of singing and sometimes I still doubt if its true, weird. Of course this can't be possible if I haven't got any lessons before, if that never happened I believe I still be hiding this without confidence and all of my potential would be nothing.

I'm happy and thankful that God had given me this talent even though many of us can sing and some are better than me ,not all have been blessed with this talent and fortunately I am here to sing for them.I'll never get tired of this talent and I'll continue to love singing all the way.

My dream of Traveling

When I was young , I said to myself that I 'll travel around the world. But now that I've grown I realize that life isn't easy and so it isn't easy for me to go places everywhere. But nothing is impossible right? It's still my dream to go and visit places and collect different pictures of them all together. It makes me happy whenever I see new and lovely places especially outside of our country. I can't forget the day when we went to Singapore , Hongkong, Baguio ,Quezon Province and recently at Subic. These places are very precious for me , so whenever my parents got the chance to go out of town because of work , I really envy them because even though they're just there to work not for vacation , at least they got to set their feet in a different and new place. Two of the places I really wanted to visit badly as of now is Korea and Japan. Of course , we all know that these two countries and their cultures somehow is overtaking here today and I think I've learned so much about them because of that I also began to embrace them and want to know them more , plus these are cold countries ,I also wanna see snow!

I want to see what the world can offer for me, I know there are millions and millions of beautiul places around here, and it's such a blessing when I got to see and feel some of them . I know the world is still a wonderful place to live despite the fact that its facing many problems today. Mother Earth still continues to live for us if we wanted to, and I hope I'll see all the beauty of it with my own eyes.

Putting thoughts on paper


I was not really into writing before when I was a kid. If I remember it correctly I didn't find it cool whenever we write letters in school , or just mainly putting our thoughts into a paper. I never saw myself as someone who loves to write. As a kid I dreamt of becoming a doctor or nurse because I see everyone also dreamt of becoming like one. Eventually as I headed on my 3rd year in highschool , I began to love writing because of tutorials,also that time I began to love books. I'm not really a talkative person, I don't talk all the time , every second every minute, I'm the silent -type since birth. So, instead of talking all my thoughts , because sometimes I'm too lazy to talk (haha), I jot them down in a paper. And it's such a great time for me to write down something on my diary , things that I'm thinking about , things that confused about, things I wanna ask and know, things that inspires me and of course things that I'm thankful for.

There's something about writing that I can't describe completely. Because through this I can fully express my thoughts and it's there listening to me, not judging by how the way I do things. It never take revenge for the words that I write, instead it just collects my inner and deeper thoughts into one experience or whatever. How glad I am that words are invented.

My love for books

It's really a delightful experience for me everytime I read a book,especially about the fantasy ones. Reading as they say , is like taking you to another world , enjoying it every second and living the same world where the characters are breathing, plus you got the opportunity to leave this real world for a moment. As I read a book that I enjoy, it makes me feel that I am a part of their story and that's what makes me love the fantasy genre. It gives me thrill and excitement when I read about action and adventure in a novel , surreal and enchanting places that doesn't exist , because it really opens my imagination fully. That's why if I want to escape the reality , I read something that is not close to it, because let's face it sometimes life is boring and complicated , sometimes it's harsh and for me to throw it off away , I just read a book that takes me to a wonderful atmosphere, then it makes me happy.

One more thing that 's also a delightful experince for me is everytime I go to a bookstore.
Staying there relaxes me and brings me to alertness, even though I'm just looking through a pile of books , reading the titles and summaries of them really boost my curiosity. If I can stay there forever I wouldn't be bored , that placec is heaven for me!And if I came by to a mall, it's always the bookstore that I get excited about. Oh if I have all the money I would definitely spend them all to books!

Subic-tastic !


Last April 28 and 29, me and my family went to Subic for our summer weekend getaway. We went to Zoobic last Saturday , we saw different animals which of course my youngest brother truly enjoyed, he's really fond of any animals.Then when the tour to Zoobic was done, we headed to the amazing hotel I've ever seen , after changing clothes and taking bath, we swam in the swimming pool until the night.
On Sunday, we got to swim on the beach. Reaching the destination and seeing the view of the mountains is priceless. My siblings also made sand turtle. I had a nice time swimming on the sea and seeing beautiful fishes underwater. What an awesome and precious moment it is !
It was really a wonderful place to visit. I enjoyed this short but fulfillling adventure we had. The place was full of trees , such a great time for road trips. I 'll never forget this place and I thank my parents for taking us in this enchanting place. It's really a one of a kind experience this summer ! :)
