The Smell I Love

I'm not a big fan of colognes and perfumes, but i do appreciate fragrant and nostril-friendly scents.

Back in elementary days, I liked sweet flowery scents that came in cute pink bottles. In high school, I enjoyed the smell of fresh citrus fruits. Then, in college, i showered myself with baby cologne scents.

Now, no more flowery, citrus or baby scents. My favorite is the smell of Chocolate. It should be mild and not overpowering. I actually found a Chocolate Scent like that in the internet. I'll just wait for them to accept payments via Paypal, I can use cocoa butter for now. =)

Was Hacked

Thanks, this is something to write about...

I got back here. I was up to a new start in my own domain when somebody whose learning to hack a site, hacked my site. Well, you got what you want, happy now?
- I just updated my Wordpress.

Writing, yes, i just found my like for writing, i mean blogging again. And i'm planning that this site will be an info blog, because i don't like blogging about myself much.

I am also looking for a good host, one that's hacker-safe? any suggestions, I might just get a domain name for this one, i'm not liking meiaonline anymore.

If you're bored and are looking for a fun trivia site. Triviala.com is one site you can try. =P

Have you been hacked before?

boatsong

Hmmm. Let's see. I'm starting to build up links for boatsong. It's still not yet ready though. It will officially be an art(?) blog, coming sooner. Happy <3 Day!

January

Wee, hi! I have to set up Wordpress now! I have to do more things and be disciplined. I want a real blog already. =)

Direct TV

There are many nice movies and television shows out there and i would also like to watch them but doesn't have time for them. It would be nice to have something like a direct TV that offers family shows, movies, Sports and others.

Directtv can even be more affordable than Cable. With Directtv, you can choose the package that you want, just the programs that you are interested in. We know that we don't really need and watch every channel in cable tv. It is home entertainment and information in a cheaper package.

last for 08

hehehe, many things happened and Christmas na! Didn't have much time to visit blogs and to do some sponsored posts (there were offers, sayang... tsk) but it's ok. hehe. I hope to learn more things next year. I'm getting to know Joomla! (not referring to anyone, but the cms lol)more. I miss Wordpress too. I want to see 2.7.

A graphics tablet would be a good gift. That's all i ever wanted since i joined deviantart last 05. (Not really ALL - i wantED a scanner too for my drawings.) hehehe.

Anyway, i hope 2008 will be a productive year.  Thank God for everything. For everything that i've achieved, to God be the Glory! :)

HI to you (you reading this), Merry Christmas, God bless you.

*i've typed some stupid words here, that i deleted, nonsense, haha.*

update

harhar. I've been working for a month already, thank God. :) The people are nice, the work is ok. :) When will i make the design for boatsong, wheeennnn!? I plan it to be an art blog.

Hi to every online/offline friend reading this. God bless.

~joy :P

Half Room

Been busy for two weeks already, now i have to manage my time well. I can't even fix this blog's design. You see the bottom of the two div's are not yet finished =)

Some pictures:

bulletin cork board

reminders for interview. lol

Mags, pencil, Bible, sketchbook, etc.

I collect name tags, that's my name!

Less Blogging

I have decided to blog less because i want to focus on studying some things. With that, i can also have time to bloghop and give more meaningful comments (and return comments).

PAGE RANK
What do you see, 0 or 3?

SEMBREAK
I spent my last sembreak in front of the desktop watching the episodes of Naruto from the very first episode to the start of the filler episodes. And then i skipped the filers and read the manga, and then went to Shippuden episodes and then continued with the manga. :)

Thanks for the comments and awards, online friends. Godbless. :)

Joomlers

This is supposed to be Job Fair day, but we do not have water supply since last night so i can not go there yet. I actually lost my passion for that job fair, maybe because i'm thinking that the local companies that would be there are still the call centers of the city. I'm not discriminating call centers but i've just decided that i want a job that's related with arts, web designing, programming or engineering. :)

------

For the online life, i joined Philweavers.net and post some responds and questions there. It's a really nice site if you are into web designing. I also played around my cPanel and messed up with Joomla! -> i really do not know what it is but since i've been always reading about it, i decided to install it because it's available. I signed up for Odesk.com and they give me daily updates about the available freelance works and most of the works involve using this Joomla thing. I kind of understand it now.

God bless.

Wednesday morning post

I woke up early to do my daily early tasks and then i'm here typing. I submitted the resume yesterday and am continually looking for job opportunities. I decided to just go on studying things and making art. I have a volunteer work where i have to make some characters for a website. One character's almost finished and she doesn't look really good, there are many flaws in my attempt to use Illustrator. It's like a patience killer, especially if you do not group parts of your work together. It's still a good thing to learn from experiences and mistakes.

Looks ok here, but when i zoom it, it's quite messy.

My coding is a mess! I wondered why I'm having problems about feed. So, i checked my site through a feed validator service and got so many errors. I don't want to fix this layout anymore. I'll just try to make a cleaner layout next time...OR i might try to fix this now.

Job Fair! Thanks to the Masskara Festival, there will be a job fair on Friday. lol. update: I did not attend this job fair. XD

Responses to comments from the previous post:
Eugene: Thank you. :P
Kathryn: Thanks, i really have to have patience and confidence too, take care. :P
Tykez: Thanks for commenting. God bless in schooling. I just wanted to have a simple blog and a more personal-feel to my layout with minimal ads. :P

Day of Monday

So i called that company and the girl told me that there are no vacancies, but i can submit my resume, so i will do that tomorrow. So, i'm still jobless, i just do not want to venture into the call center world for now (or ever?) I will still study some useful things here at home.

I'm wondering why Moneysense picked Bacolod as the no.1 place to live in the Philippines. There's a scarcity of job opportunities here...hehe, sounds bitter. :P
---
I just discovered that there is Nuffnang Philippines already. Just some months ago when i wanted to join that site, it was only available for Malaysia and Singapore. Good thing, it's now available here. I checked the site and it looks cool. The Analytics part is awesome.

I just realized that i kept on clicking that Nuffnang ad to go to their site --> that's bad right?

Oh well, bye, Godbless.

Job Hunting?

I am searching for jobs through the internet and it is quite frustrating. I am watching updates (yah, watching, like watching grasses grow) from jobstreet, jobsdb and all other job sites. I also look for IT companies through wikimapia, from Bacolod's map. hehe. Doing that is quite entertaining. It is a Google Earth map, but people are allowed to put labels. I actually saw the names of my two college teachers there, it was funny. I found 1 potential company from that map.


I also had a day when me and two other classmates submitted resumes to the establishments in Bacolod. I submitted about 9 resumes for that day. Only one called and interviewed and i believe i failed that interview. On Monday, i will go to this building to submit an application ( I would have to call them first to see if the position is still open) although, i have already submitted an application by e-mail. hehe. They actually might be annoyed with me.

I just do not want to be late because almost a month ago, i saw a job posting that i really liked. It was Thursday but i submitted on Monday. When I called them, the girl told me that they already have a line up for that job. Yeah, and i thought, all the Engineering, IT and IT related grads in Bacolod + all the other job hunters are waiting too, just like me, so i have to be quick and most of all, ready.

I'm just armed with prayer and holding on to God's promises. haha. If it's for me, it's for me!

I'm Back!

Yes, finally i have finished this layout. After almost a month of not updating, I decided to revive this blog and turn it from a niche blog to a personal blog.

I reverted back to the blogger classic templates because i still do not give enough time to learn xml. Besides, i learned and reviewed many valuables lessons upon making this layout.

I also removed unnecessary things like ads, the world visitor map, mybloglog, and homepagesfriends banner.

I can not remember my cbox account so i can not change the colors of it.
---

I missed blogging, and the bloghopping, i knew that Google Pagerank Update was done already and i didn't acquire any rank, still in the zero-ness. But I'm glad that my Alexa and Technorati ranks are doing good.

Online Earnings? well, i've put that down some steps away from my top priorities, as i have read somewhere, profit will come from what you enjoy doing. hehe.
---

Anyway, i searched for cupcakes in Flickr for this layout and that got me drooling over those cute and yummy-looking cupcakes, why don't you try looking at Bakerella's photostream.

---
For the personal side, I still am jobless, i submitted some applications in the passed month and this month but still am not hearing anything from them.

---

Do you have a Deviantart? Mine is Summersent. :)

Okay Godbless!

For the person(s) who commented on my last post:

Kittykat - thanks for the comment! :)

Not yet

Not yet back. but soon. anyway, it's almost 3 months for Meia already. Yes, and i'm keeping this blog. I worked hard for this.

My experience with PTC's

Paid to Click sites are really increasing nowadays and in the last 4 days, I have signed up to 14 of them. Call me a newbie in this PTC craze. So, for some days, I was clicking ads and signing up for new PTC sites. Some are not just PTC sites but GPT or get paid to sites like get paid to read, surf, sign-up. After a few days, I became tired of clicking and doing these things. Imagine, having to click a hundred links for three months everyday. And i don't and will not use an auto-click script. It's not enjoying anymore and i was wasting my time. I think it's a strategy for the PTC business to accept the ads from other PTC sites so that the clickers will be enticed to sign-up to other PTC sites and then after some days, these clickers will get tired and stop clicking and the some cents that they have gained will not be given to them because they have not reach the minimum cashout amount. So, these PTC sites are really gaining, eh? I'm one of those clickers who gave up. Being a clicker, yes, but i'm still considering building a small blog for the referrals.

update: I have heard some not so nice comments about bux.to, i'm still trying a few now, and after i tested them and got paid, then i will look for referrals. :)

What is xml?

It is bothering me. I need to make layouts for my blogs. I need to make clean ones. Years ago i knew how to make html sites to make blogger templates and also learned to make wordpress themes. But being away from the blogging world for so long, i think I have to relearn and learn new things. When i got back, blogger is using this xml already, and my layouts have to be widget-ready. This is not neat. But still challenges me. I still have no work and I still do have time. But right now, my brother shares my laptop with me, because he learned how to play an mmorpg. This is quite frustrating.

Right now, i am searching for xml tutorials, e-books anyone? or suggestions? I need to learn that. I'm still on the search. I also wanted to have my own domain but doesn't have enough money, i really don't have because i don't have work yet. I just started to look for legit online jobs: GPT's and they realy give me headaches. Get paid to click, surf, read, display ads, discuss, etc. I am not really going to stay in all of those, i'm just trying some. Arghh, all of these stuff are tiring. But i'm still happy that i'm alive. Thank God.

My brother is playing too.

My younger brother is not home this time, so i can write about him. He asked me to make a Cabal account for him. After some arguments, i still made him one. I haven't visited the game in almost a month (i think) or 3 weeks. I was fed up because the servers were always full.

Then he played. He chose to be a blader. And i think he is really enjoying it now. I never thought he would because he doesn't like rpg's. He's always into NBA live and have no patience in roaming around the villages, distributing points and planning. Hmm, now i have a competition in using my laptop. That's why i tried to install the game in our old desktop but it's too slow for mmorpg's. Okay, but it's still fine. I know he's going to surpass my level soon. There's a possibility that i'll delete this part. :)

MANGA - NARUTO 411

It was boring. hehe. It was all about Sasuke. I want to see other characters!

ANIME

I really don't have much time about anime this days. But i just download. Someone from Friendship and Counseling Forum told me that Macross Frontier is a good one. Someone from deviantart recommended Claymore. Aarggh, so many animes, so little time. I haven't even watched the ending episodes of avatar. Avatar is already finished? that's really sad.

Happy Start Day.

Happy Independence Day Philippines. So, it is also the day that i will restart to blog. Now i will blog about my interests that are games and anime. So this blog will give you information and my opinions about the said topics. Comments are appreciated.

update: i also added some topics: internet, money making online, design and arts.
