My Name Is....


Hi! I'm Hunee. Everyone calls me by my nickname. My real name is Princess Maye. If you don't like Hunee then call me Maye. Personally, I don't like Princess. Some associated Princess as something classy and someone on pedestal. I am not that. I like the outdoor and would eat with my hands. Sounds like yuck but this is me.

Traveling is another thing that I like. If given the chance I would like to see the whole Philippines first before I go abroad. But, if I get to think twice, I'd like to use my savings for another plan and not for travel. Through this blog, I travel from here to there. Real cheap, no accommodations, no air fare, no baggage, nothing at all. Sound fun, isn't it?

Me love spaghetti. I like my pasta to be sweet with lots of cheese. Now I'm hungry for one. Spaghetti for lunch later.

It is 5:35am in here, and yes I am wide awake ready to go to the office. Why this early? I woke up early because I have the need to check what's on the internet and right my thoughts after.

My name is Hunee. Thanks for reading!

Grazie per la lettura del mio blog.
Merci de lire mon blog.

Dumbing you Down and Down and Down

I have been to a lot of situations when I am trying to defend myself and I talk too much. I am not so sure whether I have explained it very well but because I feel I am pressured and talking, I believe, is the way to make the other understand my side. In the end, I would feel stupid at what I did.

Here's the deal. You feel you are almost caught? Well, you will be when you don't stand straight on your pajamas. Blackmail is an everyday life. It will never be eradicated, no way, no how. I know it is scary that true things will come out but what can you do about it, it is not on your hands. The person blackmailing you will do what he believes will give him what he wants to know.

Don't talk too much when you know you have not done anything. Let me say that again, you have done something but just out of curiosity. If you found a hot item then let it be don't babble about it. It does not concern you. And don't worry, you are not the only dumb in the situation. The dumbest is the blackmailer. He was just furious and he knows he has no proof about it.

Dumb people are mad. Dumb people are fools. In other words, they are the worst kind to end up with.

Disclaimer: This post is purely my own thoughts on some stupid situations that I am personally involved. If you think you are this person, think twice. Don't be dumb like me. All smiles :-)

The Negative Side of Workaholic

Let me define first what is workaholic. The word workaholic is a colloquial word coming from the word "alcoholic" which is the parent of all addictive words. Thus making the word workaholic as something negative.

According to Seth Godin, on his blog, workaholic people lives on fear. Workaholic people are not happy doing their job, they simply go to the office because they think they had to. To qoute:

It was hard to imagine someone being passionate about mining coal or scrubbing dishes. But the new face of work, at least for some people, opens up the possibility that work is the thing (much of the time) that you'd most like to do. Designing jobs like that is obviously smart. Finding one is brilliant.

The person is just compelled to do the work. Seth Godin has mentioned the other worker who is the passionate worker. By the word itself you would know what kind of worker he or she is.

Although, there are a lot of times that people associated the word workaholic in a more positive way, there are still chances of getting misunderstood. The negative side of the word is that it was coined in an era where we see -"aholic" as addictive which is negative.

I personally believe that in anything I do, I have to put my heart on it for it is an honest conduct not just for someone else to notice my conduct but being true to myself. I am the one doing it so I must be, at least, honest to the last person who will understand and respect me and that person is me, myself and I. I say, doing something out of fun is more likely to be a passionate worker than doing something for a compulsive need to work, that is a workaholic.

My Adsense is Working

I have been blogging since mid of last year. Then following some people's advices, I signed up for Google Adsense. I didn't know what to do then, so I kept on earning 0.00$ every month. Frustrated but I got the never-give-up attitude and slowly some 0.01$ coming in. A little happy with the progress.

I kept on blogging and I was even tagged as a stalker by someone who is popular but I am not sure whether it was him or not.

I got excited with the "How much is your blog worth?" by Dane Carlson because I didn't expect that for some newbie like me. I got more excited when I knew that my friend's blog is worth nothing and he has been blogging for years now. I was laughing when this other person thinks my blog was useless and hers was no worth at all. Isn't it funny.

Don't laugh at my nonsense stories. I know this is nothing compared to all you top bloggers out there. Actually, this has been a remarkable situation for me, to be able to find out that I was actually doing good at something. I thought social networking is not my thing. And that I am only good at changing friendster profile. I tried to blog my thoughts through the network's blog but I was not happy at how it ended. Some people got mad at my posts. Like I said I am the never-give-up person so I tried again.

If I would do good on this till June 2008, I'd probably buy my own site. Working on how it will look but it is still inside my projects folder.

Now my Adsense is working for me. I don't want to reveal it yet but I know sooner I will get the first check. I am not like you who are now receiving checks and most probably not that excited to get that check. Well, I am very excited and at least I can say something to myself now. And I can do something about my new hobby.

There is No Such Thing as Perfect

In my job, I could not tell whether this service that I am offering is perfect for everyone. Nor it does not assure everyone that the service given will definitely give them an easier life.

I don't believe in perfect. Most people that I knew tell me that I am a perfectionist which is really an opposite of me. Perfect is like an end. An end that you wouldn't be able to get a chance to grow and learn new things.

Just like my marketing career. If I would tell someone to buy this because this will be perfect for him, it is just the same thing as a fool for money. For if I would tell that to someone I am only after his or her money. It will not give me a chance to grow nor the product or service to improve.

If people are not perfect then how can we give perfection if the one making it is not perfect? I hope I make sense here, because me having this job is not perfect at all. I have ups and downs and it gives me sad times, bad times, and happy times.

I believe it is the circle of life that makes things go up and down. Some would like to stay on top but I prefer going up and down for it will be boring for me.

Most of the Top 30 Young Millionaires are MEN

When I made the post about young millionaires, I've found out that most on the list are men. Why is it that most geeks are men? And most male geek earn more than a female geek? Has there been a chance in history where female geeks dominate?

Ashley Qualls, of whateverlife.com, is definitely one of the young millionaires but she's on the top 25. I am sure I am not the only one who noticed that male geek dominate not just in making millions but also being featured positively in TV shows and movies. As for female geeks, there are a lot out there but they are often not featured as like men geeks are featured.

Wired has released its search on sexiest geek last December 2007, and female geeks dominate the list. Why is that?

Here's what I think. Male geeks dominate because everyone of us think that only men can do this job, like an engineering job. And now female geek dominate the sexiest geeks list because of Victoria Secret. Girls on their lingerie walking on the isle and giving some sexiness to the audience. This is what I thought, and although there are a lot of successful stories of girls making it to the top, other girls does not follow the pattern. If there are more sexy female geeks then I know in the future there will be female geeks earning millions and they will be replacing top male geek on the list.

Girls, is the a sign that we will soon be on top of the 30 young millionaires list?
Boys, do you think a female geek can be on top of the 30 young millionaires list 5 years from now?

What Princess Maye Means

You are influential and persuasive. You tend to have a lot of power over people.
Generally, you use your powers for good. You excel at solving other people's problems.

You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.
You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.

You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing.
You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.
You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.

You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong.
You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know.
You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do.

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.
You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.
You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!

You have the classic "Type A" personality.

You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in.

My Type of Music

BatangYagit tagged me on this game. It took me a little longer to do the post, and finally I have my list of songs.

The meme goes this way

Take a screen shot of either your Top 25 Most Played / 25 Recently Played / Top Rated songs on your music device.

2. Post them on your blog and explain yourself.

3. Copy these instructions and tag 6 audiophiles to do the same thing.

So here is my response to that meme.


I love acoustic more than anything else. Of course, love songs are there to remind me of pain and happiness. Really, the sole purpose of love songs is to think about what had happened and then sleep soundly. Old music like Katie Irving, my all time favorite.

All of the songs I listen to right now are from Jack Johnson. He's just cute and I like listening to him, makes me relax. Feels like I am always at the beach making banana pancakes.

So to end this, I'm tagging Dulce, Jim, Chattee, Langz, Juliana, and Ate Michelle.
