Just when I started enjoying My Twitter, some internet savy bloggers declared that twitter is out. Apparently the very new PLURK is the in-thing now. It works the same as twitter but with better features such as being able to see what your plurkermates are doing on real time. Have you tried this? To all my twittermates, I won't sign up if you won't haha. Happy Monday Everyone! 
Still catching up on lost sleep. Will get back with your links updates, memes, comments, and cbox messages tonight when I resume my full blogging mode. For the meantime, you can read updates HERE. Hope you all had a good weekend!
Just a little tweaking here and there and some sleepless nights at stake. I am going to post when THIS will be ready for public viewing. This month, promiseS for the NTH time hee!
For those who want to link THIS up, go ahead. I will not request for ex-links though. THIS will be a form of some kind of real passion release on my part. Since the move, I have stopped doing this and attended to more important roles in my life. When THIS is done, all of you will be informed. Hoping for the same reception as this blog receives from everyone of you. Till then.
REMINISCING 2007...
You know what they say about raining? That when it rain, it pours. Well, that happened to me in a span of 2 days, I was showered with 36 whopping opps (i just cleaned up my backlog 2 days ago). I am not here to brag, I am just proud that my hardwork paid off (sana tuloy tuloy na ito!) and I want to blog about this milestone in my paidblogging life hahahah! Now the thing is, I hope to be able to cope up with this # and not let any of these be put to waste by having them expired. One more entry here and I am off blogging on my Other BLOG.
In the meantime...
I am no fan of Pacquiao but I guess this is a record breaker for a Pinoy to really make it big globally speaking, sabi nga Just do it! I am proud of you Pacman!
It has been almost a month since my last COMPLETE bloghop huhuhu. Apologies. Things got really busy. Thanks to all those who still frequent my site. I want to bloghop today, all of the links in my blogroll, but can you tell me the easiest way to do that? How could I add everyone in my favorite links in just 1 click. I do not want to the manual thingy, or am I asking for heaven here? I'll see everyone down the list. Wish me luck!
One of the things I miss back home are my shuttle rides to work. I love them hahahah! For those who lived in BF Homes Paranaque or Tahanan Village know why shuttle rides to makati is fun. We know the passengers and drivers too, we made friends with these people whom we see every morning and night or afternoon. I used to sleep on these shuttle rides but I got hook with Chico&Delamar's Top 10 which made sleeping not an option. Me and my friend, VAL participated many times in these Top 10. Of course, I'm caller Something Purple, obvious ba? I miss those days when I receive very early morning text messages from Val telling me what Top10's topic is, or simply reminding me that I should tune in to my MP3 player. Sometimes, I couldn't contained my laughter while listening to it. Some of my shuttlemates would even see me laugh. tsk tsk kahiya! There were times I missed half of the the top 10 because I am already at work. I would frantically look for the top10 list in the internet but I failed. Too bad, it is only now that I have learned about CHICO GARCIA's BLOG where he blogs the daily top 10 and some personal travel sprees. It is only now that I discovered that he scubadives! He takes good picture too, makes me miss My Scubadiving Days! So for everyone, who is into this radio station's top 10, check out Chico's Blog. It's visit worthy.
Have you read this? Nagulat ako, nagsusulat pa pala siya!
Anyhoo, here's the rest of the article which was quoted by Bryan Boy as Malu Fernandez thinks blogging is a slacker job! I truly love Bryan, despite his hilariousness and what-nots, you find essence in every entry he writes. Magaling talaga! Like all the other gayfriends in my life, very very witty!
to quote the infamous Malu Fernandez:
So let me continue, first of all I believe in the freedom of speech. By all means say what you need to say. Unfortunately for most of the bloggers without advertising you get paid nothing. If in fact you do get paid then hooray for you. But blogging, aside from Perez Hilton and the other big time bloggers (you know who you are) is for me a slacker job or a medium and pastime for lonely people to connect. Unless you’re in bloody Siberia or in a Gulag prison, try stepping outside your comfort zone and turn off the laptop or pc, you just might find some real live people to talk to instead of typing away in cyber space.
I refuse to post her photo here, totally not worthy. What do you think about HER article blogging buddies?
I was attempting (so badly!) for the nth time to sleep early tonight and postponed blogging to early morning tomorrow when MEL texted me this: "Naka plaster and mukha mo sa homepage ng blogvertise!". Being the low EQ person that I am, I immediately logged on the computer and voila, mel posted it HERE and this is the screenshot. Wala na buking na buking na ako ni MR. G_ _ _ _E! At kung kelan ako walang OPPS sa kanila, dun ako na feature LOL! Thanks for this mel, at least may souvenir na ang paidblogging days ko! I can mention that word here because like almost everyone of you, nabiktima din ni Mr. G ang aking PR! Hep hep hooray!
I was chatting with a blogging buddy some few weeks ago about the future of blogging. 
She even asked me if I wanted to be a contributor in a beauty blog. I have often hear and read that blogging is the future. In 5 years time, almost everyone in our generation will have at least 1 blog and half of them will be earning from it. Isn't that truly amazing?
Anyways, going back to our chat which ended at 4am. She told me about someone who is actually earning sooo much just because of blogging. So the curios side of me made me wide awake till 7am the next day. I researched, surfed and surfed and discovered that there are really a lot of people making more than $10k a month purely by blogging! Of course, the very famous Perez Hilton only started out as a personal blogger and look at where he is now.
Blogging these days can be collaborated to the "New Marketing". Designer brands such as Gucci and Chanel have been inviting pro bloggers to their important events: read:runway shows, campaigns etc... and they treat these pro-bloggers as special as some very important fashion critique. They usually get the best seats in fashion shows! WOW!
Almost everyone is targeting the online market. Who wouldn't? And bloggers are the strongest when it comes to expressing their own POVs. With everyone making their own sites, expressing themselves in their own blogs and getting in touch through internet network sites, a big shift is happening.
What I'm trying to say here is as long as you enjoy blogging, go ahead do it but be wary of the blogging ethics when writing. Say, acknowledge quotes, pictures you are using in your blog entries. When I started blogging in 2004, I am not truly aware of all these. I started to blog in the year when blogging was just starting to become a hit, I got pregnant at that time and as a 1st-time mom, I wanted to record every single thing that pregnancy changed in me as well as every milestone my son makes as he grows up hence the birth of http://em.wifespeaks.com. Then my blogroll list grew bigger and memes are popping out of nowhere so the birth of this detour site.
In the next few days I am coming out with a 3rd blog (i can hear people throwing shout outs at me: "ADDICT LOL!"), and yes I have become an addict in blogging more LOLz! But this 3rd blog is something I really like, some skill I have no means to express now as a make-up artist. I will share every knowledge I learn through the years on beauty, grooming, make-up and any vanities that keep every woman beautiful and purely sane. I will also feature local make-up artists, when I say local: I'm saying Philippines. I'm still doing a lot of weaking here and there and I promise to tell you first. I am really excited about it. So for now, let's all be happy and merry with our blogosphere! Happy Monday to everyone! toodles.

I didn't notice that I was posting the wrong html coding for that big bear hug hahaha! Until JANE and VINA awarded me these hugs yesterday. My previous hugs were stuck somewhere in the beginning or the end, that's why I was wondering what Biiii stands for LOL!
So here, big real hug to everyone in my blogroll to start your week! Happy Monday everyone!
Oh my goodness! The result of my Rate my Life Tag is not true!!! I should have failed in mind, body and spirit. I am seriously bloghopping now and noticed I have been posting messages at the wrong cbox hahahahha!!! Like I posted a message for ABIE but made the cbox post at FARAH's cbox. Oh my goodness talaga, I need major rest and red bull altogether! But nothing can stop me, not even time LOL!
I was checking for more OPPS this morning and was surprised to see this in one of the paidblogging sites:
You have already taken the maximum campaign offers available to you per month.Please check back on or after 03/01/2008 for more offers.
...haha! and another site emailed me too, informing me that for the past weeks, I have been meeting the required OPPS/day for my 2 blogs and if I keep taking more than 6 per day, I might get another warning email. What can I do? they keep popping out from nowhere and I don't say no to moolah lol!
So I am truly addicted to OPPS and it has been so far so good as I turn 4 months on March 16! Yay! How's the business with everyone else?
Thanks for this, Jacqui! I love sharing my thoughts and knowledge on paidblogging, nakakatuwa kasi pagnakatulong. It's just my way of thanking my paidblogging gurus: Jane, Peachy and Abie. Good luck!
And thanks also to Abie for this 2nd-time award.
I am passing this award to my regular visitors whom blogs I have been regularly visiting too: abie, jane, jacqui, cheryll, alpha, joy, val, rafter, baters, ela, mama mee, mel, juliet, kitts, may, peachy, retchell. Spread the love girls and advance happy heart's day!
Most of my blogging buddies who are into paidblogging have more than 1 blog to double the OPPS and income as well. So I decided to make this 2nd Blog of Mine, which I refer to as my "Detour Site", meaning a completely different approach or a shift from the things that I don't write in my Personal Blog. I was surprised when other blogging buddies have started referring to their 2nd blog as their Detour Blogs, nakakatuwa promise, parang I created a trend in naming their 2nd blogs. It's so nice when you start a trend and they become part of a lingo, a blogging lingo!
Some snippets: Mama Mee and I were chatting the other day and she was telling me about her thoughts on resurrecting her blogspot blog. And when I asked what the URL was she replied: "Detour sya ems: http://_____.blogspot.com. Hangkyot!
See what I mean? lavet gurls!
Mel and I were just chatting awhile ago and she introduced me to these 2 online shop sites. Nakowpow! It's also in my SIKAT ITO! link list so help yourself LOL!
bloggers, why is it that my CBOX has been missing in action at least every other 2 days? KENES! do you experience this as well?
btw, how do you like my new skin? i think this blog needs new bihis as she has been earning a decent amount of money the past days. hee!
Hiya! I'm not really in my blogging mood these days. Some important family matters need to be attended. But, I am currently updating my link list. So for all of you who wanted to exchange links, please leave a message in my cbox so I'll include you. toodles!
