BLOG TEMPLATES

During my first weeks in blogging, I became hooked on posting different topics and reviews of sorts. I poured all my thoughts in the blog and began exploring the other features of the blog. I liked so much that I even post at least five topics in a week. My writer side blossomed but somehow my blog looks so dull. I began exploring the other add ons in the site and then I stumbled upon different templates and themes of a blog.

I never had any background on website design and even doing codes for html makes my nose bleed. I tried customizing the background color, the fonts and whatever that fancies me. I began to search for free template codes for my blog site and found lots of them. I love all of them but I took so many attempts and changes before settling down on a black and pink theme with feathers. I know it looks so girlish but I like its dark but cute appeal. I can really relate to the topic in webarticles.com. It talked about the theme framework and the different sidebars functionality in a blog.

I don't really understand the codes and html topics but I would definitely agree on the article that theme should go well with the blog functionality. I can't wait to share this article with my friends and other bloggers out there.

FAILURE by Amanda Jordan

Failure I feel it approaching out of the darkness out of the staleness I see it first just as small as the light from a fire fly It is a silent threat, not heard only felt Like the storm you see quietly but forcefully dancing on the horizon. As it grows in its magnificence My apprehensive heart beats against my chest I feel it so close but I keep praying that it will stay far away My heart pounds wildly until my breath escapes me My life my existence has been nothing but a great paradox leading to this moment in time. There are so many Their voices screaming in my mind A thousand thoughts inside only one How do I help them all What if I allow one to fall. Will it swallow them into the parade of lightning into the abyss of blinding light Will I too fall for not saving them I always knew it was there Safely waiting on the horizon But I never felt this light would catch me this fast I never thought the rain would fall upon my skin But now here it is Will I have the strength Strength to make it go away Only the agony of waiting for the future will tell Just remember never let it come so close That you can feel the mist upon you Because the second you don't realize the other end of the story That is the second it grabs a hold on you.

FASCINATION WITH PRINCESS DIANA

I have a certain fascination with Princess Diana. I have her two autobiography books-Diana and Jackie and The Last Words-Diana. I makes me feel so blessed even though she's the princess. At a certain point in her life, she felt trapped and betrayed. I felt pity after reading a few chapters of her autobiographies. I am still fascinated by her life and how she handles the pressure. She still remains over gorgeous and exuding with sex appeal and confidence.

I understand why a gay posted an article on Diana. He became curious on Diana's life just like me. The gay blog stated that there is no conspiracy on the death of Diana. I have to totally agree. Let's just preserve the memory of Diana-so pure, gentle and kind lady.

NEW INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER

I'm in dilemma for a good internet service provider. I had Globelines before and unfortunately, I didn't like how they responded to my urgent calls of internet disconnection. Just when I finally decided for Bayantel, I saw the 999 sim promo of Smart for internet in GMall. Imagine this..buying prepaid SmartBro USB. You should consume the load available in the prepaid then you can switch to the sim 999 unlimited internet. Sounds cool bah? I like it because you can actually bring it anywhere you go. No load problems too. Haaayyy...whatever.basta I should get a new internet service provider soon.

HOME DECORATING

My mother's the arranger at home but I am more on the visual touches at home. I don't know but she just go with the flow. She doesn't consult anyone if she makes any arrangement at home. I sometimes go home in shock because she already rearranged the living room. I really like the tip in the articleinput.com on the topic on before you begin decorating at home. It laid out all the details all the ideas you need in decorating the house. The writer must be an interior decorator and engineer...He suggested that a decorator should draw plans and determine the traffic areas in the room. It also also gave ideas that experimenting on furniture is fine.

While browsing the site, I also found some interesting topics but I really liked the topic on lighting. I've been planning on buying a lamp for our living room. I like its classy and modern appeal but I wonder if I will really help in achieving the whole modern feel yet very functional in our living room. The article helped me a lot on determining the lighting color and the effect it will bring in a room. The color of the room while also affect the brightness of the light. Now I know what to look for in a lamp or lighting fixture for a room. I now feel like a certified interior decorator.

OF GUITARS AND WATCHING MOVIES ONLINE

I used to have a guitar when I was in high school. It's a fad that time and I envy all my classmates strumming their guitar during school breaks. It's cool to be part of the hip and cool group. I hinted my father to buy me a guitar, he did granted my wish. I began practicing only to find out that really don't like guitar that much. It's crazy practicing all day and never getting the guitar chords right.

During summer break, my cousin would stop by the house and play all day on my guitar. It must have worn out my guitar, that some of the strings were broken. Eventually, the guitar broke into pieces due to some arrangement done at home. Nowadays, kids can learn how to play their guitars online. I miss my guitar so much but I don't know if I will still have the eagerness to learn though online tutorial. I have my other online obsession though, it's watching movies online.

I find it hard looking for movies in the video store especially if its classic and famous movies. I then search online for my favorite movies. So easy and will still give you the brilliant features an original DVD copy will. It just need patience to download the movies in order to share them to your family and friends.

As you grow older, your preferences and hobby will also differ. They will sometimes become complicated or more varied than before. It will surely make time worthwhile just like what I am doing right now-downloading the Sherlock Holmes movie for viewing later with my family. ciao!

TRIP TO BUKIDNON-FINALLY!

One of our 2009 plans is to go to Bukidnon. Unfortunately, we canceled it due to some important events. Finally, last April 9, 2010 we headed to Bukidnon to experience country living at its purest. We met at Pryce Tower at around 5:00am then traveled to Bukidnon at around 6:30am. The weather's fine but it looks gloomy that day. We had our first stop at Monastery of the Transfiguration in Malaybalay City, Bukidnon.

Secondly, we traveled to Edlimar Spring Resort in Maramag, Bukidnon. (By the way, the owner of the resort is Tin Pangilinan's relative.)

(That's Lyka(the bubbly kid), taking pictures of the group)

By the time we arrived at the resort, Lyka won't stop taking pictures of us. Eric candidly took a picture of Lyka happily taking picture of us. We hurriedly changed our clothes and took a dip on of their nine(lang naman) pools in the resort. It was so cold but very rejuvenating for us. It made us relax after the long trip we had. It was such a long trip but it's really worth it and living the country life for a day made us feel so worry free and candid!!!*wink*
