Tag! You're My Friend!

Thanks to Blogkadahan for this friendship tag. ^^

This is a "FRIENDSHIP OFFERING" with someone whom you know, would like to know and would like to be friend with.

The mechanics of this is to copy and paste the image in your blog, link back the person who tag you and share or spread this friendship badge to 7 or more bloggers that you knew or think you are friends with.

Ooh 7, my fave number. ^^

I haven't been doing tags lately and I'm offering this friendship tag to my "long-time" blogger friends (since I started reaching out in the blogosphere only this year that is) namely Emcee, Enday, Fab (Miss you, girl. Long time no blog from you and Furious), Superboi, Alex, and Bino and Cey, who are both celebrating their birthday today. (Pa-burger naman kayo ^^)

Sorry for not visiting that much unlike before. That's what happens when I have a job. Hahaha.

xoxo ^^

Not Just Okay But Great

Here's my favorite quote from Alfred Tennyson about love: It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

***

Yeah, I'm a hopeless romantic. *sigh*

It's been so long since I've done tags so I kinda missed it. Only a little. :P

Got this from Denz and Emcee. Grab it if you want! :)

But as I said to sis Emcee, this shouldn't just be an "I feel okay" mantra. This should have been: I feel great! It's no fun being just okay. We should pursue greatness, happiness, bliss. *sigh* I feel great! ^^

*start copy here*

Feel okay? Well you should be! You’ll definitely be okay if you’re going to be a part of this meme, be okay if you are about to have a chance to increase your Technorati and Google Pagerank!

1. Make others feel good: share your favorite, self made, or any quotes as you pass on this meme with the image below.

2. Make sure to come back – HERE - (ifeelokay.com) to get the master list and leave a comment that you’ve made yourself a part of this meme. This would ensure that you’ve been added to masters list.
3. Your favorites, self made, or any quotes that you shared are collected and will be linked back to your site as its source, this would give you much benefit. Put a category before your quote. (ex. Inspirational, happiness, love, sweet, time, motivational, friendship, and others), much better if you relate the quote on your blog. Ex. Fashion Blog - quotes about beauty; Personal Blog - quotes about success, life, inspirational and many more. It’s your choice.
4. Only one quote and category per blog please, make sure to tag as many bloggers possible. Please update your contributor’s list more often. May we achieve thousands of quotes from different bloggers around the world. Let the fun begin. Be a part of a great collection of quotes from different bloggers around the world!!!

1. I missed church.
2. I didn't load my cellphone.
3. I almost slept all day.

1. I blogged on 3 blogs.

3. I still didn't load my cellphone.


6 Quirky yet Boring Unspectacular Details about Me (from Vera)

1. I like to sleep on my side with a pillow hugging me.
2. I'm happier buying a lower-priced item than its expensive counterpart.
3. I love peppermint choco.
4. I love word play.
5. I love love.
6. Instead of physical attributes, I sense personalities.

Thanks to these 3 blogging gal friends of mine. Whew! That ends all of my overdue tags for now. Yay! ^^

Dating 101

Now that I'm doing the tag, I think this is the only tag I'm actually having a hard time to answer... if I'll answer seriously or just play on it like what KC did. Hehe. I'm a sentimentalist but I don't bare this part of myself to just anyone. Perhaps just this time. Haha. I'm not thanking KC and Tey for this tag. ;)

1. When was your first kiss and where?
The day before I had a boyfriend. In Pampanga. Figure it out. Hahaha.

2. When was your first real relationship and how long did it last?
In college. 2 years.

3. What age were you allowed to date?
I think I was never allowed to date per se. Hahaha. Not until now that my mom is practically urging me to get a guy... fast. Hahaha. (I'm the eldest kasi and she wants to have a grandchild already.)

4. What's the craziest thing you did (for love) when you were a teenager?
I don't do crazy stuff. My thoughts though are crazy. If I'm a wacko out of love, I'm an obsessed wacko in love.

5. How long is your longest relationship and what's the secret?
2 years. You see, it was my first and last relationship so far. Hehehe. Is there a secret? Perhaps I never knew. Haha.

6. How long did you date before you decided to settle down?
Hmm... next question please? :D

7. How long did you know he was the ONE?
The hell I don't know who's the ONE. So if you're the ONE, tell me so I'd know. Hehe. But if I'm the ONE and you're the ONE, how could there be two ONEs? XD

8. Now, at what age will you allow your kid(s) to date?
I think I won't let them while they're studying as much as possible. Hahaha. Suffer! XD Well, let's see if they're mature first. ;)

9. When it comes to your kids dating, will you be a cool parent or a strict parent?
Despite the suffering I endured with having strict parents (hehe), I think I'll be strict also. Though I've always told myself to be cool. I want me and my kids to be best friends. :)

10. What piece of advice can you give to your child when they start dating?
Don't date! Hahaha.

Whew! That was over. I love this quote though I don't know who to credit for because it's getting rampant... My lovelife is like Coke... it's zero. Nyahaha. ^_0

I'm tagging F&F because I'm curious with their lovelife plus I'm a fan of their loveteam. ^^ I know they won't suffer answering this unlike me. :D

Shoe Size

This is actually a tag post (again). I'm so practicing procrastination these days. XD

Anyway, you can read (and grab, if you want) the tag below. I really have a difficult time thinking of people who'd actually do tags, without tagging the same people over and over again.

To answer the tag, my shoe size is 7 1/2 but since half sizes were phased out (I guess), I almost always get an 8. What's the problem with half sizes? :(

I have the biggest feet in the family. Only a half notch that is. Mama and Let are both size 7. They benefit when I buy sandals/shoes (though mostly sandals because I'm not a shoe person really).



This is my latest shoe buy, just bought this Russ pair this month because of the rainy season. I was tempted to buy original Crocs but as I've said in my previous post, I don't buy such expensive stuff. With more than Php 1,000 I'd rather buy Altec Lansing speakers than plastic shoes. Nevertheless, I didn't buy the imitation Crocs because I don't think they're durable enough. (And you think it's about piracy or something. Hehe.)

Thanks to Kwagoo for this. :)

{Start Copy}
What’s your shoe size? Are your feet the same size as your mom’s feet? How about your sister’s feet? Can you borrow shoes from each other?

Post a picture of your latest shoe buy.

12 Words

Thanks to Malditang Bunso for this tag. :)

Two words meme: this meme is different because it is up to the player to write his/her own words and give his/her own interpretations of these words. present 12 words that mean something and explain why.

Well, my twelve words will be the first twelve numbers! Haha. Let's count and connect...

1. One is for loneliness. Of course, you get that because if you're just one then you're alone. Yet, of course, I know being alone doesn't necessarily mean you're lonely. I am a good example of that because sometimes I enjoy being with myself only. :D

2. Two is for tango. What's that quote again? "It takes two to tango." But what does that truly mean? Literally, you can't dance tango without a partner. Hehehe. I think this quote can be applied to anything that deals with partnership, cooperation, and also teamwork, huh?

3. Three is for (Mother) Earth. Because three rhymes with tree. Shoot me. Hahaha. Go for the green revolution! ^^

4. Four is for Fantastic. The Fantastic Four! Shoot me again. :P

5. Five is for Family. I got used to the idea that the ideal number of family members should be five --- Father, Mother, Ate (eldest sister), Kuya (eldest brother) and Bunso (youngest child). That was my connotation in my elementary years and confirmed with a toothpaste jingle -- Father, Mother, Brother, Sister, how do you brush your teeth... (sung by the youngest child of course).

6. Six is for Sensuality. Change the i to e. ^^

7. Seven is for Heaven. Not because of 7th Heaven. (Though I liked that series. They're all grown up now! Huhu.) But because they say that seven is the number of God.

8. Eight is for Luck. (I should have posted this pala yesterday, no? 08.08.08) Eight is a lucky number to the Chinese. Yesterday was a fully-booked day, indeed. ^^

9. Nine is for (Playing) Cards. I don't gamble but I've had my memories of a Casino board game with Lucky Nine, Black Jack, and Roulette.

10. Ten is for Perfection. The whole numbers are completed by ten. The most famous listings should have a top ten. We rate things or people if they're a perfect ten. Ten seems to be very powerful, ei? :D

11. Eleven is for Mid-crisis. It's a little after the powerful ten, but less than the mighty 12 of the clock.

12. Twelve is for Christmas. Yey! On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me ~~~~

Ten NER Basics

Ok, KC, here's my end of the tag. Thanks for waiting. Haha. ;)

The tag is about 10 random things about me. But I'll try to encapsulate my essence with my interests.

1. Movies. I love watching and reviewing movies. One of my all-time fave romance movies is 'When Harry Met Sally.' Good thing I just found a video of its theme song 'It Had to Be You' by Harry Connick, Jr. though it's an original Frank Sinatra song.



2. Books. My long-time pastime since highschool is reading pocketbooks. I'm currently reading 'An Interview with the Vampire' by Anne Rice but I enjoyed 'The Vampire Lestat' more. I was able to read the sequel first rather than the start of The Vampire Chronicles. Hehe.

3. Videoke. I love singing at videokes. It's a pity my former officemates and I don't have the opportunity now to continue our acoustic band. I was one of the vocalists. :D

4. IT. I am currently a PHP programmer at Auction.ph. (Yes, that's my new company. :D) But I was a .NET developer before and used mostly Microsoft products in my previous job at Makati. You see, these programming languages are worlds apart in software development. Hehe.

5. Food. I'm a Capampangan and Capampangans are known for their cooking prowess. Well... I don't cook. Haha. But I definitely have the Capampangan taste. ;)

6. Photography. I wanted to have a camera when I was in 4th year high school so I can take pictures of clouds. I love gazing at clouds. *sigh*

7. Poetry. Before I learned the magic of blogging, my outlet was poetry. It started out when I was appointed to join a poetry-making contest in fifth grade then I tried to write personal poems in high school.

8. Blogging. I started blogging perhaps three years ago in Friendster when I was doing overtime work at Globe. After a few shifts in blogging platforms, I settled here. Never Ending Resolve was just a play on words to form my nickname, Ner. :D

9. Love. I'm a hopeless romantic. I believe in soulmates though I'm not that idealistic anymore, of course. Through time, I've learned that love isn't just magic. You make it work. You choose to fall out of love. (A friend just told me her sad love story. She said I blog it. Should I blog love stories here? I got a lot up my sleeve. Hehe.)

10. God. I believe there's only one God, though we have many names for Him. I respect all kinds of religion because I believe that there's no formula for worship. Go with what suits you in order to praise Him best. Religion shouldn't be a barrier for anyone of us. A truly godly person goes beyond religion. ;)

If you believe what I just said, I urge you to grab this tag. ^^

Food Tripping

Thanks to Denz and Ritzie for this tag. Let's start eating! ^^

1. Chicken sa McDo, Jollibee, or KFC?
- Here's my order of preference: KFC, McDo, Jollibee. I also love Shakey's and Yellow Cab's fried chicken.

2. Pepsi, Coke, or rootbeer?
- I don't drink much cola. Of course, Coke is all over the place. With sodas, I prefer Sprite and I miss my kiwi Italian soda from Cafe Central. *sob* But I love drinking fruit juices.

3. Greenwich, Pizza Hut, or Yellow Cab?
- Order of preference again: Pizza Hut, Greenwich, Yellow Cab. I'm not into thin crusts. The choices did not include my top faves: Chef d' Angelo, Shakey's and our local pizza house here in Pampanga, Didi's Pizza. Hehe.

4. Adobo, sinigang, or nilaga?
- Sinigang na baboy, Adobo (whatever meat) and Nilagang Baka. Yum! ^^

5. Beef, pork, or chicken?
- Chicken, Beef, Pork

6. Starbucks, Coffee bean and tea leaf, or Gloria Jean’s?
- Among the three, I like Starbucks though I'm not a coffee lover. Actually my fave coffee shop is Seattle's Best because of their Mint Choco Chip Javakula. Hayz...

7. Cornflakes, Honey Stars, or Milo cereal?
- Milo. Again, my constant breakfast cereal is not among the choices... poof and we became Koko Krunch! :D

8. Goldilocks or Red Ribbon?
- Red Ribbon though I also like Goldilocks' choco mousse and polvorons.

9. Tokyo Tokyo, Teriyaki Boy or Rai Rai Ken?
- Teriyaki Boy! No doubt about it!!!

10. Take Out or Dine In?
- Dine In especially for savoring restos' ambiance. :)

Anyone who wants to eat with me, grab this tag. :D

I'd post comments on you later however. I just need to eat dinner first. Hehe.

Kadamo Award

Thanks to Kadamo Arvin of Damuhan for this Kadamo Award. (Though it sounds like a Filipino curse. Hehe.) But I am touched. Thanks again, Arvin! ^^

I'm giving this out to all my blogger friends who continuously support me by voting for my blogs at CarlotaOnline and Galleria Neri.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone, even my non-blogger friends and their friends, who are still supporting me all the way. I'm deeply touched and honored. You just don't know how important your support means to me.

I'm not the type that bothers anyone for favors that's why these contests are testing my social skills. I might not want to be in one again after this. Haha.

Hugs and kisses to all! ^^

Sweet Home Blogger Award

I thank Lechelle for this award, which she has given me 11 days ago. Hehe.

I'm dedicating this to all the sweet people in my life, even for my non-blogger friends especially to Prick and Flor who got out of their way to campaign for me.

So to my fellow sweet bloggers, I'm tagging Bryan, Vera, Eunice and Gail.

Have a sweet day ahead! ;)

Support the Philippine National Costume in Ms. Universe 2008

Thanks to Concealed Mind for this "tag." I urge all of my fellow Filipinos, bloggers and non-bloggers, to vote for our national costume in the upcoming Ms. Universe 2008. Thanks in advance! Go, Team Philippines! ^^




The 2008 Miss Universe comes to Vietnam for a night of stars and glamour in search of the most beautiful woman in the world! The winner for Best National Costume will be decided by online votes. So now, the main objective of this tag is to increase awareness for all Filipinos regarding the online voting. Let's VOTE for our very unique Philippine National Costume worn by our representative, Jennifer Barrientos.

General Instructions:

1. Go to THIS LINK!
2. In the Menu Bar just above the thumbnail pictures of the delegates, click ASIA/AUSTRALIA.
3. Look for the Philippines' Costume (like the picture above & it's actually in the page 2).
Click its thumbnail.
4. After clicking, a preview will then appear on the right side of the page. Click "SELECT THIS DELEGATE" located just below that preview.
5. The bad things is, we are to choose 3 delegates! So be sure NOT to vote for those countries that will surely be a strong competitor for the AWARD! :)
6. After choosing the Philippines and the "other" two countries, click on "SUBMIT VOTE" located just below the thumbnail pictures.
7. Follow the SIMPLE instructions after that!
8. You're done! Go Philippines!

Add your blog link below as a proof that you are one of the TEAM PHILIPPINES!

Because of the rampant tagging in the blogosphere, I don't know who else hasn't done this tag hehe. I wasn't good with chain letters and pyramiding schemes, that's why. XD

So I'm putting my hopes up and flaming Saging and Retarded's Notebook. Burn, baby, burn...
