I am a certified blogger. That's a fact. However, I still felt the need of wanting to learn more about blogging and promotion.I might be driven by my passion in writing but I am not pretty sure if everything I wrote is worth-reading and totally engaging. Nevertheless, I still write mainly to express and not to impress. But it is a whole lot better if everyone could relate whatever thoughts I have expressed from my mind. Like what I have learned from the CDO Bloggers Inc., to which I am one of their new members, it feels good to be a Social Media Influencer. 

For me, being a blogger entails great social responsibility. And with that, we have to be responsible enough with everything  we wrote considering that every time we click the PUBLISH button, it is viewable to the whole wide world. So, how good is that if we are able to share our thoughts and ideas to the world and be able to influence them in any possible way? BUT, were our thoughts and ideas really get the chance to be noticed by the majority? What if, at the end of the day, you realized that only few were able to get your message? To be honest, this is one of my dilemma. I write, I express my ideas hoping it could influence others but I really do not know how far it went. And I want to do something about it.

Recently, the CDO Bloggers conducted Basic Blogging and Social Media Promotion, a sort of a workshop. Initially, it was intended for newbie bloggers however, I still registered because I might be blogging for more than three years yet I know there's still a lot of things that I need to learn especially in the issue of promoting my blog. I need to equip myself! The insights I got from Mr. Vic Madriaga, the current CDO Bloggers President is a sort of a refresher course for me. He talks all about the basics in Blogging. Venus Smileygal, VP- Internal, on the other hand focuses on social media promotion. She shared everything she learned and all the time, effort and the minimal cost I spent for this event is so worth it! Thank you guys!

By the way, it was not just an ordinary event. It was made possible with the support of its major sponsors: Sun Cellular (thank you for the kit), Missy Bonbon (thank you for their yummy pastel), CDO Moms, Res Toe Run (looking forward to have one!), Dessert Strip (thanks for the brownies), Bigby's, DermCare and Pinay Mommy Online!

Hmm, looking forward for more in the future! I wanna blog for more and be heard. How about you?

"Where should I place my hand?"

"Papa, Can you assist me?"

"look at me, I can ride on my own" :) 

My baby seldom go out.  I am just too hesitant to allow him to be with the crowd LOL! See how happy he was? This was taken when he was still 11 months old. I thought he couldn't appreciate it yet, but I was absolutely wrong! 

He's still learning how to walk during this time...

"I can walk soon"

And indeed he did!

He so enjoyed the day that he ended up on his Tita's arms... snoring... sshhh :)

Since we need to go with the Advance Party which will leave on the 26th, it's going to be a 5-day stay at Malaybalay Bukidnon...

Home for the majority is the safest and best place to stay. However, if convenience becomes a question because you've got clogged drains, busted air conditioner and problematic sewerage system, home could be the last place that you want to stay with. Problems involving plumbing maintenance, sewer maintenance, and air conditioning maintenance as well as drain cleaning and furnace repair will greatly cause stress-related dilemma especially if the needs come when our budget is limited. We rarely find plumbing services that opens 24/7 not unless you are living in Canada where plumbing Calgary is not a problem at all. Why? Because they understand well that plumbing problems could come anytime yet our money doesn't so they have a financing scheme that would help those who badly need their services. They offer hassle-free, low-interest, same-day financing loan approval and easy payment plans. So even if all those problems relating to plumbing come at once, it won’t be too stressful with their financing schemes. If you've got a problem like dysfunctional hot water tanks, you can rely with company like the one offered by Clearview Plumbing where they prioritize quality services more than anything else. Hotwater tanks Calgary is just one of the services that they could offer. Aside from that, they have certified plumbing professionals whom you can really rely on. So, if what you need is a repair, a maintenance or a replacement, they are readily available round the clock!

I used to write notes to anyone without their knowledge. Whenever there's opportunity, I love scribbling down on somebody's notebook and write just about anything. Then I forget about them... I was just reminded by the owner when they happened to read it... just like this one:

Xy-zsa was one of my students (first batch) back in 2005. I totally forgot about this note and she reminded me by posting this to Facebook. :)

Today is the 34th birthday of my sister in law. She might not be that perfect but she is such a good sister-in-law. She is not only a loving wife to my brother, she is also a very supportive Mom to her son and daughter. She dutifully guide my nephew and niece while my brother is working abroad. She is also a caring Aunt to my son, Gregory!

with my babie Gregory

To you Ate Loi, Happy happy birthday!

God bless you more and more!

I just miss this picture. I miss my two sisters...

Yes, we moved again (for the 7th time) We are now living with my mother-in-law. There are lots of adjustments to make... I know it would be different but again, I still prefer if it was just the three of us. But we just left with no other choice so far. I am still reconsidering about the offer of my friend (check my post: Windows of Opportunity). 

Last week we were invited in a product demo held in our school. It is all about progeCAD, an AutoCAD alternative. ProgeCAD is much cheaper compared to AutoCAD and it has almost similar interface with the latter. As CAD teacher, we were given free CD (30-day trial period). You can also download it at www.progecad.ph. 

Try for yourself if you like it better than AutoCAD. As for me, I haven't tried it yet because my computer didn't pass the minimum given specifications. :)
