i’m a flockstar10.27.07

Flock, Inc. The Social Web Browser!

gone are the days when i was scared of rss feeds and media streaming. it’s the era of convenient blogging, streaming, blurking, networking (and stalking? haha), and file sharing. and flock has just opened up a new world for me.

with flock it’s so much easier to keep track of news, blogs, social networks, and even your email. i don’t have to click on the links on my sidebar one by one to see updates on blogs i read; flock does that for me since its feed reader keeps everything in one place so you can view what’s new anytime.

what i love also about flock is the media bar. unfortunately i’m subscribed to just flickr and i only have a few friends there so it’s still not loaded as much. but for the photojunkies, it’s a sure winner.

(why do i sound like i’m in a commercial?)

this is really one of the best stuff i’ve discovered on the web (thanks to ate pao), and for a non-techie person like me, that’s saying a lot.

i’m one freakin happy blogger now10.27.07

DSL news 

i cannot contain my excitement.

my connections are all working now. akalain mo yon, pagbukas ko ng laptop ko a few minutes ago, it started to search for wireless networks within range (im supposed to connect to my cousin’s myDSL account that we’re sharing thru a router) at bigla nalang nag-log in yung YM ko! automatic! it didn’t prompt for anything like it usually does before.

yesss! it’s finally working!

tag you’re it

and now, finally, i can work on a pending tag from jayme for reading her blog (i was so pissed off before i decided to boycott blogging until the freakin dsl works) :)

what a mess!

this is my workstation at home. im not posting the one at the office anymore for confidentiality purposes :) anyway, gulo no? you really don’t want to see the rest of my room. hehe. pero as i always say, i’m organized in a messy sort of way. im the only one who can find anything in my room even if it’s all cluttered. but i love my room even if it’s up in the attic, it’s quite roomy and i get lots of sunlight so i don’t really need any light in this corner.

so i’m tagging patty, moks, kuya john, ate ida, misha, meeya, yang, k, and the love coach :)

happy tired 

yup you read that right, i’m tired but happy. just got over that weekend hangover with mia and some friends. i just had to pay a really high price for having fun. i got bedridden-sick last sunday and had to stay home till yesterday and i thought i had dengue. the fever’s gone now, but i’m still feeling a bit sluggish (and my insides aren’t that all functioning well) so i might have something else.

anyway, i finally tested my supermommy powers to see how far i can go with just mia and me. i thought, ‘this is a piece of cake. i’ll just put her on her stroller and push her around’. by the time we got to leslie’s i was a bit on my nerve’s ends because mia wouldn’t sit still on her high chair and would grab anything within her reach.

leslie’s tagaytay

or, she would reach out to mommy to take her somewhere else where she can see the dancing lights and tree leaves a little closer. mariel, tin, and jeff tried to be the sub but mia wouldn’t last that long with anyone else because she wanted mommy, mommy, mommy!

i did manage to enjoy the bulalo, bangus belly, and lechon kawali :) i really had to be a party pooper afterwards for asking to go home because i was really tired by then. we didn’t even stay for coffee anymore to wait for one of our other friends, aurie.

lesson learned? never dare to tag the little one along on long trips without a certified untiring yaya (like lola). hehe

love DSL?

finally we got broadband internet. yeah yeah you can call me ancient for getting dsl this late when everybody’s up to wireless broadband already! me and my cousins finally decided to split the bill to have everyone connected to pldt myDSL. they bought a router and finally tested it last night. it works! i was asleep (trying to, actually) already, though, so i wasn’t able to test if the wifi works on my laptop.

by the time i post this entry, i would’ve found out already :)

after one night and one day…

and yeah, i did find out that it sucks. either that, or we’re just trying to troubleshoot the connections by ourselves and we suck. my cousin who’s already techie enough couldn’t figure out what else is wrong with my network settings. para sa mga hindi techie, you’d know how i feel. gusto ko ng itapon sa labas tong laptop ko.
