Read How I learn to have my blog hosted by a paid webhosting through wordpress platform.

I am proud of myself because today, I am looking at my payu2blog dashboard and proud to see that I have 2 blogs on their system now and 2 tasks waiting for the blog I have just added. I have been blogging with them through creative thoughts, for a few months now and a large sum of my blogging earnings are of course courtesy of this great great blogging company. Then, I learned that you can apply a total of 5 blogs with the same account. And so, my goal was to add another blog to their system. That’s when I started to work, on famous circle. What I like about this company, is that the give you a steady stream of work, and they don’t left you hanging. I have read a good number of write ups and reviews about them, and all of them are correct. Everyone loves payu2blog.
I started to work on famous circle only to be disappointed upon my first application.
I was declined. I never knew, they needed one more thing from my new blog, it needed to be self-hosted. Meaning, I couldn’t use blogger anymore, and I have to learn wordpress, plus I need to pay for webhosting.

Good Morning Irish - Thanks for submitting your new blog for review. I can see you have been working hard on it. Unfortunately at this time PayU2Blog is not accepting new URL that are on the free-hosted Blogger format. We have had some instances where Blogger has edited and altered content and links, or have taken down the entire blog. For our clients this means they lose all those valuable links that are on those sites. So we’ve set sort of a quota on the percent of those free hosted blogs we are taking.

If you want to move this blog over to a paid hosted site, where you are owner of the content, I’d be happy to add it to your account.

Did that reply discourage me or something? For a second it did, but knowing the fighter spirit and persistence in me, I knew that I could find a way. I knew there must be a webhosting here in the Philippines that offers affordable hosting rather than the very big names in webhosting that are very expensive for me. And I did some research, until an answer came.
Mommy Ruby started a webhosting service which is just so perfect for me and Filipinos alike. It is very affordable, and you won’t regret it. Blogshaven offers as low as 1 dollar a month hosting. Imagine that. And you don’t have to pay for it for a year, imagine? You can choose to pay for a month, a quarter or a year. See? very flexible, plus payment terms are oh so flexible too.
Lastly, the support and service they provided is really excellent, specially that the admin is my blogging friend.

Blogs Haven offers the most affordable blog hosting services for as low as $1.00 per month. We have different plans available that will suit your blog hosting needs. Aside from that, we offer flexibility in payment. You can pay us monthly, quarterly and yearly via PayPal.
By the way, if you want to transfer your blog from your previous host or migrate it from a different platform such as those coming from blogspot and quick blogcast, I offer my personal services for FREE!*

So, I was able to transfer my blog from blogger to wordpress, plus I learned how to do it. I also learned the ropes of wordpress. It was not that difficult than I expected. Now, I am comfortable with it. Really! Congratulations to me….I think I need to reward myself for this? Hmm, let me think, how about a lingerie corsets ? Oh, that would be perfect.

I am learning the ropes of Wordpress as of now. I learned how to write posts, link to posts, add blogroll, add widgets, add images and videos, alter my header message, a lot lot more learnings. I realized Wordpress isn’t that hard at all. Thanks to blogger, because if not for my experience in their dashboards and very friendly platform, wordpress could have been difficult for me too. I still have around 6 blogs here in blogger, so I wouldn’t really miss it. I am still learning a lot of things in wordpress right now, and all of these experience is really great.

By the way, I’d like to share an article I’ve read today. I really liked it so much, and it got me into thinking about what really motivates me and what are my deepest desires and wants in life. In short, it made me think about my life purpose. Please read
What’s your why? The Importance of Finding Meaning In your life.

i am open for exchange links so, just leave me a comment.

We woman have a tendency to be too much in love with our partners. I have learned and realized its not healthy. They say, those who fail the most in love are the intelligent ones who becomes dull when it comes to love.
Love is the most wonderful feeling you can ever have, but its not about fairy tales and happy endings. Love is the realization that you accept and love the whole being of a person despite his weaknesses, faults and shortcomings. We women can easily get too attached in a relationship and we tend to make our man, our “EVERYTHING”.

I guess, this story would be a good reminder for us to leave something for ourselves and not to give it all to our partners.

There was this girl who always dreamed of having someone…someone to hold…someone to lean on…someone to love… and someone to share the rest of her days with. Then suddenly out of nowhere, someone came along…someone that made her life worth living for…someone that made her feel complete…they were lost in their own world…staring deeply into each others eyes…sharing laughter and tears…but it didn’t end there. They had so many memories to look back on…through letters, to pictures, to trials and tribulations…nothing could tear them apart…till fate stepped in. There was the girl, lying on the ground crying in a river of tears…”How could this happen? How could her only love deceive her, was the love she gave him not enough? What did she do wrong? Then she stopped crying, wiped the last tear on her cheek and asked help from above…and soon she began to realize that after awhile a person will learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, then she will learn that love doesn’t mean leaning and company doesn’t mean security, and then she learns that kisses aren’t contracts and presents aren’t promises, and finally she would begin to accept her defeats with her head up and her eyes open, with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child, then she would learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much… so the girl finally decided to plant her own garden and decorate her own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring her flowers, she then told herself, I can endure, I am strong. I have worth.

We should remember, that the greatest love of all is to be able to love ourselves. Yes, that is true. It is very difficult to do because we have this innate desire to be loved and cherish and valued. Whether you admit it or not, we have this longing for our man to appreciate us and give us special attention. But, he should not be your world. You should let him know that you can surely live without him, but your life would be much happier with him. Don’t let his head swell but showing you love him soooo much that you will do everything for him. Remain mysterious and he will chase you forever. and with that, i would like to end this post with a song, victims of love dedicated to

Victims of love

Our hearts have been to battle
Our souls have been to war
We’ve lost the will to carry on , we don’t believe no more
Oh why is it that we got it set
That this could never happen to us
How could it be . cause baby here we are

Victims of love are broken down unfair
So sad to see the debris
Scattered everywhere
Victims of love , still cannot believe
We are the victims of love
We cannot retreat

It used to be so easy , it used to be so good
We had an understanding that got misunderstood
I thought we are survivors and we’ll never go down
But now were just outsiders as our love
Comes stumbling down

Refrain

Bridge :

Maybe we played it a little bit to sure
And everything is hearts and roses
Now fate stand still and closed the door
And we were just left standing
Till we realized the ending
Why so near …
Where do we go from here …

Refrain

I don’t like parties so much, but I attended this one, cause its our company’s year end party. There were a lot of prizes for our raffle, but I never won any. haha. But, I’m still happy for the opportunity of working here. It was a wonderful and challenging year. I got two kudos or guest appreciation call from callers, which is amazing cause others even don’t have any. Plus I got a bonus for that.

I’m the 3rd from the left side, wearing black and looking a little bit shy.

We had our party at ayala park, laguna cafe. Honestly, I didn’t like the food. But the place, was great. We can overlook the very nice sights of Ayala. You will feel like you are in a beach resort even if your outside the mall.

I just sent my payment for the web hosting plan I ordered to mommy ruby. I still have to change some settings on my domain and then, I’ll wait for further instructions from her. I hope I can get the hang of all of these changes in my blog, which will be transferred from a blogger platform to a self-hosted domain. Geeh! It makes me excited and thrilled. Today, I am wearing the pretty watch my sister gave me for Christmas. It’s so cool cause I can change he strap to another color. It has 2 alternative straps if you like to change it. I’m wearing the blue green one right now, the original strap. There’s pink, and silver too.

I am so happy today that I found an affordable web hosting service provider. The good thing, is the provider is a dear friend of mine, mommy ruby. I never thought she’s really that techie that she is now offering those kind of services that only webmasters usually do. For as low as 1 dollar per month, you can get your blog to be self-hosted. You can have it transferred for free from a blogger platform to WP, which is what I really wanted to do, but has no time for researching and hassles due to my busy work and family life. Thanks mommy ruby for coming up with this. This is a great value to me and to other filipino bloggers since your services are very affordable unlike the expensive rates from other providers. You can check blogshaven.com and find out for yourselves.
Now that I found a great web hosting site, the thing I need to do is to find online sites that sell video cards at an affordable rate so we can have Christmas memories recorded.

All of us make little health mistakes that cause damage to our bodies in the long run - simply because we are unaware we are doing something wrong. Here are some of the most common mistakes made by many of us.

Crossing our legs
Do you cross your legs at your knees when sitting? Although we may believe that this is the lady-like elegant way to sit, sitting this way cuts down circulation to your legs. If you don”t want varicose veins to mar the beauty of your legs and compromise your health, uncross your legs every time you realise you have one knee on top of the other. The best way to sit is to simply pl ace both legs together on the floor, balancing your weight equally. If you feel like changing position, instead of crossing your legs, simply move both legs together to one side. As an alternative, you could also consider crossing your legs loosely at the ankles. This is a classically elegant way to sit, and is far better for your legs and your health than sitting with your legs crossed at your knees.

Not changing our toothbrush
How often do you change your toothbrush? Most of us wait until most of the bristles have either fallen off, or are in such bad shape that we”d be embarrassed to pull out our brush in public. However, since not many of us need to pull out our brush in public, we carry on with our frayed one until we lose it. Repl ace your toothbrush often. Damaged bristles can harm the enamel, and don”t massage your gums well. If you find brushing your teeth a pain like I do, but know you must do it, you might as well be doing it right. Imagine going through the annoyance of brushing your teeth twice a day only to find out that you”re damaging your enamel every time you clean your teeth. Also, use a brush with soft bristles unless your dentist has advised otherwise.

Eating out often
There are oils that are high in cholesterol, and oils that cause little harm and are better for your heart. However, no matter how light the oil is, it is never a good idea to eat too much of it. Avoid fried foods.Remember that in all probability your favorite Indian food restaurant throws a huge, HUGE chunk of butter in a tiny bowl of dal. Rita, who worked in the kitchen of a 5 star hotel, was shocked when she saw the cook chop a 500gm butter slab in half, and throw half into a Paneer Makhani dish. No wonder the customers left licking their fingers. And no wonder they felt so stuffed and heavy afterwards. Limit outdoor eating unless you know that you”re getting served light and healthy food.

Skipping breakfast
Never, ever skip breakfast. Remember, when you wake up in the morning it”s been around 10-12 hours since your last meal. Your body needs food now, more than at any other time. Eat a heavy breakfast. You will then be busy through the day, and the calories will get expended quickly. If you are trying to diet, eat a light dinner. Here are some more common health mistakes we make. Being informed and making a few changes can help make us feel a whole lot better.

High heels
High heels sure look great, but they’re murder for your back. This however doesn’t mean you should steer clear of stilettos. Wear them, but not when you know you will be walking around a lot. Wear them when going out for lunch or dinner - when the only walking you will be doing is to your car, to the table, and back. Avoid high heels when you are going somewhere on foot. If you are constantly tempted to wear your heels, take a good look at your flats. Is there something about them you dislike? Invest in a new pair of beautiful flats or shoes with a low heel. Buy something you love, that you will enjoy wearing.. If possible, get a matching bag. You will then enjoy your flats as much as you do your heels.

Sleeping on a soft bed
You don’t have to sleep on the floor be kind to your back, but do make sure you have a firm mattress. Although a mattress on springs is soft and lovely to sink into, it’s bad for your back. If you already have an old bed with springs, you don’t need to invest in a new one - simply get a thick wooden plank put over the springs, and pl ace the mattress on the plank. Similarly, if your mattress is old and lumpy, throw it out and get a new one. Your neck and your back will thank you. The same rule applies to sofas. If you will be spending hours on a sofa, get a firm yet comfortable one. Sofas you completely sink into are not the best idea.

Pillows
No matter how comfortable sleeping with ten cushions is, have pity on your neck and resist. Sleep with one pillow, and make sure it is not too thick. If your pillow gets lumpy, discard it and go for a new one. Get a thin pillow if you sleep on your stomach, and something a little thicker if you sleep on your back, to give your neck adequate support.

Not exercising
So all of us know we should exercise more, but many of us don’t. This is a health mistake we consciously make! And why is that? Simply because we refuse to admit the damage we are causing to our bodies by not working out. A number of people only start working out once they’ve experienced a warning signal. Don’t wait for a heart attack to strike before you decide to opt for a lifestyle change. Make the change now. You don’t need to t rain for the marathon to be in top shape. Half an hour of brisk walking three to four times a week will make a world of difference to your health. You could then increase this to forty minutes, four times a week - and you’re all set. If you haven’t exercised for a week, you’re making a mistake.

Today’s Message of the Day is:
Life is short. Break the rules. Forgive quickly. Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.

I am still not well with my bronchitis. Despite this, I’ve been working full time and was never really able to take a rest. Anyway, the next 3 days will be my day off. We only have 2 days off but someone swapped with her day off for next week. So next week, I will only have 1 day off. What are things to look forward to from now until next week of Wednesday?
= upcoming bonus and salary (hehe! everyone’s waiting but we’re not expecting that much because of the economy’s current condition)
= my mother’s birthday this sunday, december 21
= our church christmas party this sunday, december 21
= plan to take plenty of rest. so my mantra is rest, rest and rest…

I researched about bronchitis and I found out we just have to rest a lot and drink a lot of water/fluids. Sometimes, medications really won’t help specially if you don’t take your needed rest. So, I will try to control my productive urges. Honestly, there are times that I can’t stay put, I always think what to do to make most of my time. Errr! Have I been a productivity geek? Not really.
During hard times at work like this, when I need to talk and talk and I have cough, it makes me think how nice it would be to retire from this work, to have more time for things I love to do: selling, reading, writing/blogging, studying, spending time with loved ones, teaching, taking photos etc. But I know, someday that will happen. Once our financial status will be stable, wherein we won’t fear what will happen to us, I would stop working and do these things. I promise.
But again, for now, let me remind myself that my focus is on rest…rest and rest.
I basically don’t need weight loss pills at this moment, what I need is the opposite. I need to gain weight, enough weight cause everybody has been telling me I’m very thin now.

We are feeling the effect of the season finally and we are getting few calls. Hopefully, this will continue until the end of the month. I am starting to get bored now while waiting for a call, so what I did?
tsansarann…………played games….hahahahha. shhhhh, don’t tell.
Well, thats actually okay, cause its okay as long as you are not playing while on a call. I had fun at twizle.com, you might wanna try it too. but i also want to do something productive so I am checking for english words to study for the day. just trying to enrich my vocabulary. wink
