Mafia vs Blogging

Mula nung natuto or natuklasan ko mag Mafia sa Facebook [thanks to Merwin] parang nakalimutan ko na mag post sa journal ko. ehehehe. parang script blocker pala yun o sadyang addicting sya o sadyang adik lang ako. Well, kahit pa sabihin pa ng family friend [aka ampon] nila Mannix na si Louies na ang boring nya laruin kasi click ka lang ng click eh nilalaro ko pa din. abah! mahirap kayang mag pa taas ng level [87 na ako] lalo na pag wala ka masyado friend sa facebook at yung konting friends mo eh ayaw pang makisawsaw sa boring na larong mafia. gugulpihin ka lang nga ibang mafia family.
 
Well, may natutunan naman akong mga bagay:
1. Ang pahabain ulit ang pasensya ko. kasi pag naubos na ang energy mo. mag aantay ka ulit ng ilang oras bago dumami.
2. Gulpihin at abangan sa kanto ang mga mas maonting mafia kesa sa akin. na wag silang tigilan hanggat kaya pa ng powers mo. ang totoo kasi sila lang ang kaya mong talunin kahit pa gano kataas ang level mo pero maunti naman ang mafia members mo taloka pa din.
3. Mamalimos ng energy pack. mag makaawa. o kaya bigyan mo din sila ng energy pack para ma konsensya sila at maisipang bigyan ka din.
4. at higit sa lahat, mag add ng friend request kahit ndi mo friend. [Just for the Mafia]
 
adik di ba ? di bale ... matitigil din tong kalokohan natoh pag lagpas ko ng level 99... mmm... may bagong jobs daw after ng level 99... anu kaya yun? teka time to keep up... [alt + tab] ....
 
o cya maya na lang ulit may nagbigay ng energy pack! yepey!

Meet my new baby...

Let's just call her "Buchic". [My mom used to call me this kase] This is actually just my 3rd official fone for 9 years. I'm so attached to them that i can't afford to replace them with a new one unless there's really a need.

Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot C510


Autofocus and 3.2 megapixels - the C510 Cyber-shot™ makes taking great photos a piece of cake. Just slide the smooth lens cover open and snap away.


[This actually the fone advertised by Sarah Geronimo! I just found out when i saw her on their site. ndi naman ako super avid fan noh!]

Pansin ko lang lahat ng napili kong fone "Fone ng bayan"!!
Me: Meron ba kayong C510?
Salesman: Ah oo! Mabili nga sa amin yan eh! yan yung kay sarah di ba?
Me: uhmm... yeah!

My second fone. Nokia 3230.


I bought this last June 2005. Gift ko sa sarili ko nung birthday ko. I like the maroon one eh since fone din sya ng bayan ayun nagkaubusan din ng color. hmmp.


My first fone. Nokia 3210.


Infairness, super tibay kaya neto. Finland made. kaya kahit ilang bagsak na eh buhay pa sya! Malambot yung keypad. easy to use. ndi nga lang makatanggap ng long text msgs! hehehe! binili ko naman to year 2001.

Stress Management

A lecturer was giving a lecture to his student on stress management. He raised a glass of water and asked the audience, “How heavy do you think this glass of water is?”

The students’ answers ranged from 20g to 500gm.

It does not matter on the absolute weight. It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance.

It is the exact same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, the burden becoming increasingly heavier.

What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while before holding it up again. We have to put down the burden periodically, so that we can be refreshed and are ! able to carry on.

So before you return home from work tonight, put the burden of work down. Don’t carry it back home. You can pick it up tomorrow. Whatever burdens you are having now on your shoulders, let it down for a moment if you can. Pick it up again later when you have rested.

Rest and relax. Life is short, enjoy it!! Cheers!!!!!

Earth Hour 2009

We have just joined the Earth Hour 2009 (8:30pm - 9:30 pm) :D

This is turning your lights out for just one hour.

Earth Hour is an international event organised by the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature/World Wildlife Fund), and held on the last Saturday of March each year, which asks households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights and electrical appliances for one hour to raise awareness towards the need to take action on climate change.(source)

This event is a global warming awareness initiative. By turning our lights out for just one hour we can help in the reduction of carbon emissions which reduces the effects of global warming.


And I'm proud to say we've been joining the Earth hour since 2008.

This is for the next generations. Let's VOTE EARTH!!!

Want to do something to help stop global warming?


Here are 10 simple things you can do and how much carbon dioxide you'll save doing them. (from An Inconvenient Truth)


Change a light
Replacing one regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb will save 150 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.

Drive less
Walk, bike, carpool or take mass transit more often. You'll save one pound of carbon dioxide for every mile you don't drive!

Recycle more
You can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per year by recycling just half of your household waste.

Check your tires
Keeping your tires inflated properly can improve gas mileage by more than 3%.Every gallon of gasoline saved keeps 20 pounds of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere!

Use less hot water
It takes a lot of energy to heat water. Use less hot water by installing a low flow showerhead(350 pounds of C02 saved per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds saved per year).

Avoid products with a lot of packaging
You can save 1,200 pounds of carbon dioxide if you cut down your garbage by 10%.

Adjust your thermostat
Moving your thermostat just 2 degrees in winter and up 2 degrees in summerYou could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment.

Plant a tree
A single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.

Turn off electronic devices
Simply turning off your television, DVD player, stereo, and computer when you're not using them will save you thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
