Cleaning Up

Adgitize before, now its Entrecard! It’s just so sad to know that Entrecard has closed down/ I know that many bloggers all around the world feel the lost. Actually, I just gave Entrecard a second chance when I came back using it just about 2 months ago. With my desire to increase my traffic and improve my alexa ranking on my blogs that’s why I decided to re-install the tool and it’s widget on all my blogs again.

I was “dropping” actively for the last months and happy to see that  my blogs are improving but hey the site was gone without warning. I noticed on Sept. 19th that I could not login at my entrecard toolbar and their widget is down. Anyway, I think everything has an end and it’s Entrecard’s time to say goodbye.

I already uninstalled my Entrecard toolbar today and I’ll be removing all their widgets on my blogs.

A Visit from the Fairy Hobmother!!

There’s a great buzz in the blogosphere lately! Have you met Fairy Hobmother already? If not, then you’d probably want to meet him (yes he’s a guy!) for he is the most generous fairy all of. Fairy Hobmother is spreading joy and sprinkling some love on many bloggers giving gifts you can’t resist.

Actually, I’ve been seeing him on many blog across the globe for couple of months now when I do my rounds of blog hopping. Seeing bloggers got ecstatic over his visits at their blogs made me wish that someday he’ll drop by my blogs and sprinkle some fairy dusts too. I left my trail by leaving comments on other blogs that he has chosen hoping he’d pick me next. 

Lo and behold, he found me! Few days ago, when I was about to sleep, his fairy dust encouraged me to open my mail. To my surprise, it is a mail from Fairy Hobmother telling me that my blogs (yes blogs!) where chosen to receive surprises for the good job I have done on them. Wow, I was smiling from ear to ear and what a great way to end my day. Thank you Fairy Hobmother for granting my wish!

Now, if you also believe in fairies, a surprise gift might be yours. Just believe. Who knows, you might end up buying goodies that you can put on your for your family to enjoy. The ever-generous Fairy Hobmother is still roaming the blogosphere looking for deserving blogs. So comment away and who knows he’ll contact you and shower you also with gifts.

Working in the Hospital

I sure have experienced working in the hospital specifically in the laboratory in my college days during my internship. Sad to say though that I'm not practicing my profession as a Medical Technologist anymore. God gave me a different career path and I happy and contented with it eventhough it's far cry from the medical field that I learned and experience before. It only shows that if you're not successful in the field that you are in now, sooner or later, God will show your new road to success.

I noticed that almost all of us in the family didn't end up using our medical skills later in our life. I reckon we took the wrong course in college lol. My older sister is a midwife but she's working now as a medical secretary of a surgeon in one of the hospitals in Riyadh. Her friends are mostly nurses and doctors and she often see them hunting for scrubs on sale online. My youngest sister is a registered nurse but she end up being a cake maker/designers, party planner and entrepreneur in Sydney.

It's amazing how God can turn our lives, it can be a 360 degrees turn but of course those turns are also the result of our own decision.

Goodbye Entrecard !?

I noticed that ENTRECARD has been down for several days now and I’m already wondering if they are down or gone forever. I’ve been a member of the Entrecard community for the past years and that is where I got some of the traffic. There are also active and efficient EC droppers from my blogs and seeing EC gone is sad.

I searched this morning if Entrecard is down for good and it looks like that it is.. I just read it at Dave Lucas’ post.

I still wish it’ll be back!

Wood Sculpture in the Making

If you are aren’t aware, 2 of my brothers are visual artists and from time to time they paint or do some other art form. It’s innate in them to make creations out of anything. They can turn old stuff into new and unique stuff.

Just the other day, I saw bro cutting woods and drilling some holes in them. I asked what he is doing and it turned out that he is going to make a wood sculpture. There will be art competition coming up and he thought of this.

I think it’s over a week already when I saw him polishing and drilling the woods. He even uses different kinds of screws and  hex nuts for this project. This is the unfinished project and I’m sure it’ll be done in few more days. I just hope he’ll get a place at the competition.

FB Addict.. hahaha

I never thought that I will be joining Facebook bandwagon because all along I thought it was just a waste of time. After seeing my relatives and friends using it, I have no choice but to sign up there. It was only on February 2010 when I opened an account and oh boy, like many other people around the world, I was hooked! In the morning, after reading my e-mails, it was my FB account that I often check all day. Funny how things turned out. I found my long lost friends and relatives and have reconnected to them again. 

Now, Facebook became part of my everyday life and it is where I share some of my photos, insights, ideas and whole lot more. I stay away from posting negative shoutouts or rants for it's not healthy and not appealing.

Found this funny photo and it happened to me one time. I left the stove fire on high and I did not know that sauce or the liquid in my dish evaporated already leaving the dish dry and almost burned..lol In the end, I had to put more water and stopped my Facebooking..lol

Music to Comfort the Soul

I was kinda feeling blue the past few days due to my hormonal imbalances. One of the ways to combat the physical and emotional aches and pains that I am feeling, I always see to it that I have to hear music all the time. When I feel so achy and wanted to relax, soothing gentle songs will always make me feel calm. It's somewhat removing the stress in me and when I want to feel alive, songs with fast beat will always do the trick.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who uses music to comfort myself for I know a lot of people love to listen to music all the time not only to comfort them but it's already their hobby or job. A good friend of mine even bought a new guitar at a local shop that he can use when they have church service or when he practice his songs.
