"Trick or Treat: A Halloween Special"
October 24, 2009

This coming Halloween weir your favorite creepy masks or costumes. Prepare for a spook-tacular events this 2009. Bring your kids or niece to parties and have fun. Trick or treat is popular in the states but we Filipinos already adapt their culture. It is a custom for children on Halloween. Children proceed in costume from house to house, asking for treats such as confectionery, or sometimes money, with the question, “Trick or treat?” The “trick” is an idle threat to perform mischief on the homeowners or their property if no treat is given. This is normally an empty threat, because it is rare that any such trick is ever played. (Wikipedia)

I never had been in a house-to-house trick or treat during my childhood years. But I remembered that every Halloween, I tried to prepare my own party. I gave limited tickets to my nieces and cousins. This is a passage tickets so they can entered our hunted house, lol. I decorate the house with pumpkins, bats, witches and spider web. I find Halloween really enjoyable; this is not just about Fun. Fun. Fun! We also have to make it sure to visit our relatives or friends who already deaths. Bring some flowers and candles and pray for their soul. If you want to make SPOOKY COOKIES you can also add some twist on that. Visit http://www.wmn.ph/qtv/13/True-Confections/episodes or watch QTV tonight.

"Blogging at its finest!"
October 4, 2009

Official nominated ang blog na ito sa darating na Philippine Blog Awards. Pero kanina ko lang nalaman na bukas na pala ang balota kung saan maaari mo ng iboto ang blog na iyong napupusuan. Sa totoo lang hindi ko nakahiligan sumali sa mga awardings sa pitong taon kong pagsusulat. Para sa akin kasi lahat naman tayo ay panaho mapili man tayo o hindi. Hindi mo naman kailangan kasing ipangalandakan sa blogosperyo na magaling ka. Hindi nakukuha ang galing sa taon na tinagal mo sa blogging. Maaaring hindi lang nila napapansin ngunit mas may kwenta pa ang sinasabi mo kesa dun sa taong puro pagyayabang ang ginawa simula ng tumuntong siya sa blogosperyo. Ayos lang na gumamit ka ng mga jargon words na halos duguin mo na ang ilong ng mga nagbabasa kahit di mo pa sila nasasapak. Kesa yung wala ka ng ginawa kung hindi iparamdam sa mga tao na ikaw lang. ikaw lang at ikaw lang gets mo? At ang tingin mo sa amin ay level down. Level down at never nag level up.

Naaalala ninyo pa ba ang Tribute campaign: senior bloggista na ipinakalat ko. Para sa mga taong nakakaintindi ng essence ng tribute na yun. Hindi po iyon tribute para sa mga senior citizen. Ipinababatid nun na lahat ng bagong blogger ay welcome na isulat ang anu mang nasa isipan nila. Sa mga blogger na umabot na ng isang taon ay malaking achievement ng maituturing ang kontribusyon nila sa blog world. Umabot ka man ng 1 taon o hinde maituturing ka pa ring isang blogger sa mata ng mga nakakaunawa ng tunay na kahulugan ng blogging. Ang tribute campaign ay bukas pa din sa mga nais lumahok. Basahin lamang ang mga guidelines na matatagpuan dito.

At sa darating na blogger’s choice award. Congratz sa lahat ng mananalo. Hindi mananalo ang blog ko sa inyo kasi katuwaan lang ang pagsali ko. Gusto ko lang ilagay yung widget sa gilid. Pampaganda lang. Thank you pa din kung iboboto ninyo ako dito: http://www.philippineblogawards.com.ph/vote-now-for-the-2009-bloggers-choice-special-award . Maginuman na lang tayo. Yun lang.
