There are times when I don’t know if I should feel proud that the people I only taught and/or encouraged are far better off than me nowadays. Sure, I feel happy for them but a part of me is confused why I was somewhat left behind. Envious much? Possibly. I also feel weird about seeing [...]

I do think Steve will do his part in ‘upgrading’ some things up there Have a great day everyone!

I know this may sound weird to some people but I get to think better if I see people passing by. I get to concentrate more when I am in the middle of a crowd. That’s me. That desk by the window? That will be a perfect desk for me as I will get to [...]

I think I spent a chunk of my time today doing less important things. I scheduled everything so that I would finish on time. But hey, here I am again, cramming. That’s just so me! I wish I could have followed my schedule. I hate cramming but I always end up doing just that. I [...]

I am thinking of changing this blog’s theme. I am doing a round of blog ‘renovations’ of my own blogs and those of my friends’. So I am also thinking if there is a need for a blog theme change here. What do you think? I like the header. That will not change for a [...]

My problem with spam comments is still here. I still get so many spam comments daily. In all my blogs! Some get only a single comment or two. But the others get as many as a hundred a day! I don’t like to close the comments section entirely but with the fear of that ru [...]
