This is for everyone who knows me and reads my blog.
If you still don't know the game, you have to be friendly in any social networking sites to make them curious about you and then read your blog to know you better. That's the way I see it when I decided to be a blogger last May of 2007. Everyone in the blogosphere join this and that and invite their online friends to this new social networking sites to earn more friends.
I have facebook account, myspace, friendster, and twitter. These are my active accounts which means my day is not complete without logging in to these sites. There are a lot of times that I asked somebody's help on reading my blog, giving me feedbacks and all. I really appreciate that, it is one thing that I must consider to be thankful of because it makes me better.
Alongside with blogging is an opportunity to earn. Although I have to admit my first intention was just to write about something and hoping others would read it and give some comments. I have learned along that you can not just write what you feel about this and that. There has to be basis and not to write about your anger online.
So please, my dear friends both online and offline, I was just inviting you. You still have the discretion not to read my posts. I'm not bugging, let say, begging you.

Sleepless Nights
It was one of the sleepless nights.
Truly it was tiring, but just can't seem to bring myself to bed.
Scrolling up and down.
Reading this and that.
My back hurts a lot.
I was not sitting properly.
Talk to him and her.
Writing emails for him and her.
Unproductive evening.
Daydreaming doesn't work this time.
Instead watching how Heath Ledger was taken out his apartment.
Absurd.
Up again, walking to the bedroom door.
Lay down.
Stretching.
Trying to close my eyes and imagine what if I won't wake up tomorrow
Scared but really wanting not to wake up
Get up from the bed again.
Backed to my computer.
Surfed.
Indecisive
Don't know who to follow mind or body.
Body wants to sleep
Mind don't want to go
3:30 a.m. I should be in bed

Lessons on Blogging
I Digged one post of Ben Cook about lessons on blogging. It is so much true to keep your private life as private as possible. I tried to blog on my love life for the few months I have started blogging and even though it didn't backed fire at me, I am still sure it will happen if I continue on writing about it.
My personal lessons are:
1. Never be afraid to try to write on something then post it after because you will never know if you made a mistake or not.
2. There will be people who wouldn't like your blog. They will tell you negative things and all stuff that breaks your heart. In order to win the battle, don't mind them. You are not born to please everyone.
3. I know Wendy Piersall will not agree with me, but I would always try to write at least once a day. I am a rookie and I need to learn. No body in here will tell me what to do. It is better to make that mistake now than make the mistake later.
4. This is the greatest lesson, time management. You can write posts anytime but it will never be helpful in the long run. I am blogging because I wanted to earn and at the same time tell the world my thoughts. Write blog posts during those times when it is not in conflict with work, with family and with anything that is important in your life. Thou shall not write blog posts on weekends.
To end this meme, I am tagging BatangYagit, Jim, Ria, and Reyan Elena.

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:
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.

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.

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.
