Last month, we visited hubby’s brother in Camp Aguinaldo. It was a beautiful day and the sky was clear.
While I was taking this photo, all I can think about is how I wish I was in a beach that day. I still have those thoughts as I was typing this.
Earlier last year, Paula of Mommy Diary created the BC Bloggers Secret to help fellow bloggers connect with one another despite the busy schedule. I was part of the first batch and really appreciate all the hard work Paula put into this wonderful brain child of hers.
To make things more interesting, she recently launch BC Bloggers Meme where bloggers can join and share their blogging secrets that can be useful for other bloggers, too.
This week’s question is:
“What is one tool, tip, secret (or whatever it may be) that you have discovered that has helped you in your blogging and would like to share to others?”
My answer is Windows Live Writer.
I discovered this wonderful program while I was bored and looking at all the programs installed in our laptop. I was so glad I was curious that time. Windows Live Writer helped me a lot in my blogging, especially when updating multiple blogs. It’s like a one stop shop. You don’t have to sign in to different blogging platforms every time you make a blog post. Register your blogs and then bam, blogging in a breeze. You can easily insert photos, add hyperlinks and change format. But the selling point for me is the easy preview option because there are certain way I like my blogs to be posted. Yes, I am a weird OC like that.
The sponsors of this informative meme are:

Another issue Google?

As you can see in my blog, all that is left with Google Friend Connect is a blank space. I thought it was another Blogger issue but when I went to my other blogs not hosted in Blogger, I saw the same blank space.
No news yet as to what is going on with the Friend Connect widgets.
Maybe another server update?
Whatever it is, let’s just hope that everything will work out well and our followers intact.
In less than three weeks, school will start again. Yet, here I am again still not enrolled to any university. I stopped schooling when I was already in my fourth year of my bachelor’s degree and decided to work in a call center instead. But I got tired of being a corporate slave so I decided to go back to school. It’s been three years now since I left work and I have been contemplating since then if I should go back to school or not.
There are many options out there to finish my education. I can still enroll myself in a traditional school but with the number of years that I was out of the university, they told me that I have to take an entrance exam again. Apart from traditional schooling, there is an option for Open University. It is like being homeschooled but I have to do it on my own and will be required to go to school during exams. The third and easiest option is to earn bachelor degree online. But with so many options of online schools out there, I’m not really sure where to start.
I really wish I could finish my bachelor degree before my daughter starts her education. She’s already two years old and I still haven’t decided yet what’s the best option to finish my degree.
I have a new cellphone charm!
If you haven’t notice yes then yes, I lurve panda! One reason why I waste so much time browsing Tumblr is because of their panda entries. I can get lost with everything panda (and food) in that website. It’s so addicting.
If you have a Tumblr account and doesn’t mind looking at panda and food then follow me at http://geneinthebattle.tumblr.com
I can’t say for sure. After days of downtime and some problems with deleted blog posts and template changes we can’t really tell for sure.
According to Blogger Buzz:
During scheduled maintenance work Wednesday night, we experienced some data corruption that impacted Blogger’s behavior. Since then, bloggers and readers may have experienced a variety of anomalies including intermittent outages, disappearing posts, and arriving at unintended blogs or error pages. – Read more in Blogger is back
I’ve been contemplating of moving this blog to Wordpress.
gene + experiments is my longest blog under Blogger and I was having second thoughts. Was being the operative word. With the recent server issues with Blogger, I really can’t say for sure. One thing I am sure of is that I am being an OC in terms of backing up my blogs.
If you are a Blogger user and haven’t done so, it’s easy as 1-2-3.

How about you fellow Blogger users, are you staying or are you moving out?
A terrible view welcomed us when we had our walk in Marikina Riverbanks yesterday.
As the title say, here is what is left of the Marikina River. (click the images to view larger)
Notice the green part of the river banks, the water should be up to there. Now it’s filled with mud and garbage.
Piles of mud, garbage and water plants.
The lower stairs of the amphitheater.
Direction going to Marikina River Park filled with mud.
Still we are so thankful that this is just the damage of Typhoon Bebeng. We are so thankful that we didn’t experience another Ondoy. It’s almost two years now yet I still fear the possibility of high flood during typhoon.
Martha Graham (May 11, 1894 – April 1, 1991) was an American dancer choreographer regarded as one of the foremost pioneers of modern dance, whose influence on dance can be compared to the influence Stravinsky had on music, Picasso had on the visual arts, or Frank Lloyd Wright had on architecture.
