Food - Mik-Mik


"The cough or choke is the sensation that completes the MikMik Experience." - MikMik

Anyone remembers this addicting food? 

Well I do! :happy: This was our favorite food :eat: back when I was still young. I always buy Mik-Mik at our neighborhood stores and I almost buy every single Mik-Mik they have :exclamation1: That's why I was really touched when I saw a pack of Mik-Mik inside our room yesterday night :wink: My sister bought it cause she missed this food too..

So what's Mik-Mik? Well I'll try to give details but forgive me cause I'm not a real food blogger here lol.

Yearbook pictorial - just a one big smile to offer to eveyone

testing my own photos for lomo and vintage paper effects LOL ;)

Hmmm.. I missed to update my yesterday's activity all because of the fact that I was extremely :exhausted: tired and sleep right when I got home - 8pm!

I woke up quite early yesterday having only like 5 hrs of sleep then went to a salon or was that a parlor shop (not really sure what's the significant difference of the two)? Me and my friends had our hair fixed and make up in that salon which I don't remember the name (only the place). We were supposed to meet at 7am sharp for our preparation so that we won't be coming pretty late to the photo studio but I arrived at 7:30am! Such a shame! Hahaha. But our make up started at around 9 am and there's only one person who'd do it for us 4 in there! Then the gay's friends came over to finish our hair cause if there won't be anyone helping him then surely we'll all get fixed at noon hmp..

Missing in Action




 Evening!!

I felt like :lonely1: I haven't had any blog post nor have I visited my blog  for two weeks now. It's the first straight week long absent in blogosphere for this year. Geez...

So what made me busy this past weeks? I was seriously attending to my Capstone (Senior) project trying to get focused and finish it soon. I was rushing because of all other works that are pile up on my schedule this month. Geez... I am really stress right now but is actually excited to finish all these things with the best quality output I can make. I'm just a little worried that I'll miss the deadlines hmm :a:

Here's some of the things I've been doing this JANUARY alone! I've been doing all of these :eek: concurrently.

  • Capstone project completion - covering :howiwish: 70% of each of my day
  • Editing the documentation for an outreach activity
  • Collecting different stuffs from all graduating students of this specific department batch 2012 :exhausted:
  • Preparing for this secret task.. big opportunities ahead
  • Preparing two 3 pages reflection paper
  • Completing some clearance for graduating students
  • etc....

So I really apologize for not being active to my blog geez... I'll try to update as much as I can. Hmm well other than this inactivity is my temporary goodbye for some of my PTC online jobs so as of now I do not mind getting any amount for the sake of getting focus to my school works.

My 2012 Horoscope - Cancer! not anymore nega!




Well it's not :yeahright: my usual habit to read horoscopes or ask predictions or any premonition from anyone. The real reason behind is that, almost every horoscopes I've read for my zodiac sign - Cancer, :annoyed: has always been negative! Like I'll find a fight.. I'll lose some things.. etc.. It's irritating and it's making me paranoid! Haha sorry but these horoscopes doesn't help at all in that case :exclamation2:

But a friend of mine shared a link to her facebook account and showed us her horoscope from that website.. :happy2: . I really did visit the link to check on her results and I saw it was related and true to her!!! Swear! So I decided to read mine, :wink: presuming that my results would be better than the usual annoying horoscopes.

Opportunities can't Wait

Opportunities don't come that often in our lives. :a: And sometimes opportunities come only to :eek: chosen people (yes! you have to admit that coz that's reality). It felt disappointing and frustrating when "these" come and we're not that capable enough to take them. :intears1: Some aren't capable because of their current status in their lives, :howiwish: perhaps financial, health, TIME, skill, talent, etc.And not being capable enough means letting go of certain opportunities we hold in our hands already, leaving us :howiwish: hoping for another opportunity or perhaps the SAME opportunity to come. Well some do take a risk even if it's hard (like way way 3x the expected hardship).

Deciding whether we take the opportunities or not is hard! I'm in that dilemma right now. Just last November I've been really active to some of my online jobs (while I'm still studying). But I wanted a job that is really in-line with my interest, with my passion - that goes with blogging, web design and mobile development (and my current online jobs are way out of my passion). :happy1: As for now I found a place where I could be given and I am given an opportunity to do something that is related to one of these three. And I know that this opportunity would help me to learn more in that field, step up and help me grow! The opportunity doesn't ask me to stop schooling, :wink: but rather it's just that it is too aggressive for us to fulfill somethings.

I was reluctant to accept it at first as I am still creating my Capstone/Senior Project - that which will determine if I can graduate my college degree by March 2012. But then even if I freed myself from school works by March, will this opportunity still come to me??? Will another one knock on my door? I know it won't. Not that none would come (as I know tons of opportunities would come into our lives), but those won't just match this opportunity that's on my hands right now. I just feel it. I know it. Well I can always wait for another to come but sometimes waiting guarantees nothing!

As a student :mad1: I think what hinders me to push through taking this opportunity is the idea of "YOU GRADUATE FIRST BEFORE TAKING A JOB". That's how most of Filipinos mind setting goes. It's irritating but that's how it runs in my head right now! :eek: I guess I was really brainwashed by this mentality - too much of classroom setting - VERY IDEALISTIC! I'm not saying it's bad neither am I saying that I have to prioritize working than the academics. No No No! It's just when will I step up? When will I start exploring? When will I start taking real life and long term risks? "When we're all graduates, crawling in every single company trying to find a job? Competing all together?" Another :exhausted: thing that hinders me is that, I get too much paranoid on what if I can't finish my school project because of this? What if I fail in the opportunity itself? What if.... A lot of whatifs.. Too many things to worry about.

As I see it, if I stay with the passive group - my co-students, i will come late with the rapid development of technology in the real world. I'll get even more blinded and brainwashed. Like what our moderator says, we have to grow up and get matured much faster than the normal students in our school. We have to think way ahead of them! I was happy that someone was motivating us to be like that but the pressure is on!

I don't want to waste time. Opportunities can't wait for the TALENTED and SKILLED PEOPLE. We have to move fast, study and adapt to meet that opportunities. Afterall :happy1: it's just BREAKEVEN, if we succeed with the risks or challenges given by the opportunities - it's really great; but even if we failed we still learned new things, right? Our efforts pay off no matter what.

So I say..take the risks, grab the opportunites (not that we say yes to everything - just filter those we think we can accomplish and we can manage)

How to place Nuffnang Ads between posts in Blogger

few info about Nuffnang..
Bloggers makes use of Nuffnang to earn from their blogs, primarily. Well Nuffnang offers bloggers more than money earnings, as far as my readings is concerned. If you want to know more about Nuffnang you can visit their site www.nuffnang.com
Mostly, :wink: everyone would want the ads to be seen in every post they have. Nuffnang provided the code/script and a tutorial for that. But the provided sample of Nuffnang is placing the ADS code below the blog post (just right above the navigation links of newer post, home, and older post). See the tutorial HERE.

Hmm don't want to go to the link I've given? Just read it here. And see the other options of pasting the Nuffnang codes in different positions of your blog post.
  • Copy the code provided by Nuffnang. (Get the code under To put between contents.)
  • Open your blogger account.
