Are You Planning for Your Big Day?

Are you planning for your big day, which is your wedding?

Are you also clueless on whom who will become part of your entourage? Then worry no more as I will share a site that talks about it.

I actually used it as my guide before when I was about to marry my fiancée (now, my wife).

I hope you find it useful. Have fun and enjoy your preparation! :)

Everything You Need To Know About Your Entourage

Kwento Muna Ako

Bago man lang matapos ang buwan ng Agosto ay dapat may maipost man lang ako dito sa blog ko.

Grabe no ang bilis ng araw at panahon. Ilang araw na lang mag Setyembre na naman. Makikita na naman natin si Jose Mari Chan sa ating Facebook newsfeed. Maririnig na naman natin ang walang kamatayang Christmas In Our Hearts na sadyang nakaka-LSS (Last Song Syndrome).

Anyway, malapit na rin ang araw na matagal ko ng hinintay mula ng nagkamalay ako sa mundo ng pag-ibig. Mahigit kulang tatlong buwan na lang at makakawala na ko sa buhay single. Excited na may kaunting kaba pero naniniwala ako na tama ang desisyon ko at masaya ako sa babaeng makakasama ko habambuhay.

Ikaw anong bago sa buhay mo ngayon? Feel free to share your story in our comment section below.

Cash Dividends From My Stock Portfolio

Grabe passive income na naman mula sa Philippine Stock portfolio ko. Kahit matagal na kong di nakakapag-invest uli, heto't nakatanggap na naman ng cash dividends mula sa dalawang higanteng kumpanya dito sa Pilipinas. Ang Meralco (MER) at Jollibee (JFC).

Masaya sa pakiramdam ang makakuha ng additional income mula sa mga investments natin. Matagal na kong advocate ng paglalagak ng extrang pera sa Philippine Stock Market at madalas ko itong nababanggit sa dating blog ko na www.jethrosas.com.

Sana ikaw rin nag-iinvest dahil hindi lang ikaw ang makikinabang sa ininvest mo kundi ang kumpanyang pinagkatiwalaan mo at nilagakan ng pera. Magagamit nila ang mga perang nalikom nila para mas mapalawak pa at mas mapaganda pa ang kanilang serbisyong ibinibigay sa atin.

Muli maraming salamat Meralco at Jollibee. Sya nga pala pag sinabing JFC eh hindi lang Jollibee ang sakop nito kundi kasama rin ang mga sister company nito na kinabibilangan ng Chowking, Greenwich, Mang-Inasal, Red Ribbon, Burger King Philippines at marami pang iba. Kaya kahit san ka kumain dyan eh kumikita ang may-ari ng Jollibee. :)

Z-Lasik Plan at Shinagawa, Ortigas Branch

Nakakita ako ng 3 blogposts na naglalahad tungkol sa z-lasik para luminaw ang dating malabong mga mata.

Nakakaengganyo dahil mula highschool ay nakasalamin na ko. Nais kong maranasan ang magkaroon ng 20/20 vision subalit naroroon ang kaba kung safe nga ba sumailalim sa ganoong operasyon at magkano ang magagastos.

Naririto at basahin ang mga nasabi kong blogposts mula sa kapwa nating pinoy na blogger.

Magkano Na Ba Ang Kinita Ko Sa Adsense?

Ang tagal tagal ko ng nagba-blog, year 2008 pa at nilagyan ko na rin ng Adsense, hanggang ngayon di pa rin nakakapag-cash out.

Naroroon na na-monetize din ang Youtube channel ko (kung san connected din ang Adsense ko) nung mga panahon na di pa naghihigpit sa qualifications si Youtube pero ngayon demonetized na sapagkat hindi enough ang subscribers and number of hours watch ko.

14 years na ang nakakalipas, 48 usd pa rin ang laman ng Adsense account ko. Hindi ko ma-encash dahil may minimum cashout na 100 usd.

Ang hirap pala kumita sa pagba-blog (sumulat ng article post/content) or pagva-vlog (paggawa ng video content sa Youtube) unless may big audience ka na at consistent ang pag-gather mo ng views or pageviews. Kaya kudos dun sa mga kumikita online kahit na minsan yung content nila non-sense na at puro lang patawa. Pero wala eh isa yun sa malakas at mabenta sa tao.

Hopefully in the future mag-surge itong views ko nang ma-reach ko na ang minimum cashout na 100 us dollars.

Maraming salamat sa pagbabasa.

Ang Unang Experience Ko Sa Pagdrive ng e-Bike

Grabe ang kaba ko nung nagsimula akong humawak ng e-Bike at minaneho ito. Di ko alam paano ba aabante o aatras, kailan pipindutin ang signal lights tuwing magpapaliko, bubusina pag mag overtake o nagpapaalala sa mga taong naglalakad na may paparating na sasakyan sa likuran nila, at gaano kasensitibo ng silinyador sa tuwing pipihitin ito. Dagdag pa natin ang mga kasabayan na sasakyan sa paligid mo at mga patakaran sa kalsada na dapat ay may nalalaman ka. Para bang napabili kami nito ng hindi pa handa ang aming sarili at isipan.

NWOW eBike

Pero nagdaan ang mga araw at buwan, maning-mani na sa akin ang pagda-drive ng e-Bike ng ate ko. Nawala na ang kaba at nadadaan lang pala sa pag-eensayo. Sabi nga nila, lakasan lang daw ng loob at totoo nga.

Pero kailangan pa rin ng ibayong pag-iingat at dapat palaging naka alerto sa paligid habang nagda-drive.

Enjoy kami sa naging desisyon namin na bumili nito. Mga minsan ang dina-drive ko na ay kotse na. At iyun ang next target namin. :)

I hope nalibang ka sa pagbabasa ng blogpost ko na ito. Hanggang sa susunod na post ko, kaibigan.

January 1, 2020 New Year

Today is the first blank page of 2020. This year will be my 32nd year since I was born. But the official month is December so I still have 11 months before I turn 32.

I have many things to do from my list like buy e-bike for my ate this March, inquire for a house and lot property and a lot more. A girlfriend or my soon to be wife can wait and I don't feel any pressures right now. If it comes then be it. Though, I can't deny that I am searching but I am taking it slow.

This year is also the right time for me to take driving lesson. I know 2 years are enough for us to postpone this and in getting a car. Besides, I have a feeling that acquiring a car will not happen this year but perhaps next year or so. Due to we have lots of expenses on our belt that we need to settle first.

I guess I'll end it now and get back to you for next updates. This is where I put my thoughts and I'm glad that there is a place for me to express myself.

Til my next update.

Naikintal Mo Sa Isip Ko

Masayang-masaya nung makilala kita
Ang puso'y kumakabog sa tuwa't sigla
Sa tuwing makikita ay hindi makahinga
Punung-puno ng buhay at pag-asa

Kukwentuhan ko kayo ng tungkol sa kanya
Para magkaideya kayo sa aming istorya
Malungkot ako, ang mahalaga'y nakilala
Nagmahal, nasaktan, nagising na mag-isa

Manggang hilaw na may bagoong
Paborito mong kainin at i-consume
Melona ice cream na mahirap hanapin
Na malapit sa pinapasukan mong building

At ang prinsesang cosplayer na si Alodia
Nakakahawig mo raw at nakakamukha
Oo nga no parang kapatid ka n'ya
Walang anu-ano'y finallow ko s'ya

Pakiramdam Ko

Pakiramdam ko heto na
Hayag na sa akin ang tadhana
May mga anak na nga ang iba
Habang ako'y abala sa aking istorya

Naku-curious tuloy ako
Tignan ang Facebook page nila
Kitang-kita ang saya sa mga mata
Ang pag-ibig na di ko pa nadarama

My Birthday Thoughts - 2014

Today is my birthday and I'm proud to say that I'm 26 years old.

People tend to fake their age when asking of it. They're ashamed to let other people know about their real age. Maybe they just want to have fun by telling lies/jokes.

But for me, confessing your age is not a big deal. As a matter of fact, we must be proud of it because we reach that age.

Planning To Have A Bloggers' Conference This Year

I always read most of the time from other blogs that in order for you to be successful in one thing you are focusing your life to, you need to associate yourself with people who have the same dreams and passions as you. That's why I keep on asking my four friends who are into blogging to have a meeting or conference even once a month.

I'm Writing Myself A Metrobank Deposit Slips In Advance

I decided to write myself a Metrobank deposit slips in advance with the following amounts:

- 10,000
- 20,000
- 30,000
- 40,000
- 50,000

I know you're thinking that I'm daydreaming coz these amounts are not ordinary or small amounts. I don't care what you think and you are free to say anything at my back. Call me crazy, it's okay. But one thing I can assure you, I will make these five (5) deposit slips be deposited into Metrobank before 2014 ends.

Messy Desk is Normal

I can put it this way too: messy desk can produce idea and inspiration.

I read yesterday at my Facebook timeline this line which posted by one of my friends. It's in a form of external article (I will share the link below once I found it). I read the whole article and realized why I have messy not just desk but working environment.

Anyway, according to that article if you're looking for new things, idea and inspiration, messy desk can help you find it. The creativity in you will start to show and manifest. But if you want organized and have a specific task to complete, then clean desk is what you must have.

My Secret Admiration

Keep staring at the beautiful lady
Remember your face as I like you badly
Inspired me to be the perfect match for you
Silly me for changing my personality

Paghanga, Part 2

Kinikilala ko ang taong masaya
Rikit ang handog sa bawat isa
Intindi'y napaparam kapag nakikita
Sikreto ng puso'y nagkakailaw na

Paghanga, Part 1

Kinikilig ako kapag nakikita ka
Rikit ang bumabalot sa aking mga mata
Isinasara ang bintana ng puso ko
Sinisikap na huwag mahulog sayo

Commit On The Things You Love Doing

I have some things that I need to admit and ask forgiveness to myself. I haven't committed a little portion of my time in writing everyday. The fact that I want to improve and enhance my writing skill and the way I use english should be in my top priority. Besides, if I really want to earn money from writing and blogging, I should set aside at least one hour of my time each day. I have an experience in buying my own domain name and I invested in some money. On the other hand, getting web hosting is still in the planning stage. If I started buying both of these (because if you treat a specific thing as business, basically you release some money out of your pocket and focus on it), I think I couldn't keep up on it ~ the fact that I only invested in domain name and have free web hosting under blogger.

Squidoo Pays Me $30 For The Month of April

I have no plan to return in Squidoo and continue my writing. But after I checked my email last night, an unexpected thing surprised me. An email coming from Squidoo contained the following statement, "We paid you 30 dollars to your PayPal account for the month of April..." Something like that.

I immediately headed to Squidoo just to confirm if the blue box was already there. And it was really there! It boosts my engine to stand up my lenses there, improve it and let them multiply for my own benefit. We can't deny the continuous changes done by Google but since those are the exciting parts, we should accept them and go with the flow. Starting today, I love Squidoo as well as Google.

Should I Get A Tablet?

Should I Buy A Tablet aside from the gadgets I already have?

I actually consider buying a tablet (android) or iPad mini but it's not a priority since it's only a want. I already have an android smartphone wherein I browse internet and read downloaded ebooks from our desktop. I love the feeling that finally, I can now read them everytime I want. Just like what happened whenever I have job interviews. While waiting on the line, I keep on reading my preferred ebooks just to maximize the time I have. But the only drawback I find in having smartphone are the following:

Pagyaman Ba Ang Gusto Mo?

Halika at samahan ako papunta sa pagyaman. Isa sa mga bagay na kinokonsider ko ay ang Networking. Kung gusto mo talagang bumilis ang pagyaman mo, kailangan maging bukas ka lang sa mga ganitong oportunidad. Di yung di mo pa nakikita eh naniwala ka na agad sa mga naririnig mo sa labas. Ang oportunidad ay minsan lamang dumaan sa buhay ng tao at ang oras ay sadyang napakabilis. Kung hindi ka sasabay sa mas in ngayon at nananatili ka sa dating nakaugalian ng tao (lumang paniniwala) ay talagang mananatili lang sa ganyang kalagayan ang buhay mo. Lahat nagbabago at dapat matuto tayong mag-adjust at pag-aralan kung san ba tayo yayaman. Walang masama sa Network Marketing basta pinag-aralan mo at naniniwala ka na ang pera ay isa lamang ideya. Ang pera dumaraan lang sa palad natin. Dumarating, umaalis. Kaya habang bata ka, maging negosyante ka, curious dahil kung bumagsak ka, makakabangon at makakabangon ka pa rin.
