blood sugar count..

i had my blood sugar count just this morning. it was scary just to imagine of that needle pricking my poor little index finger even for a 1/10 of a second. but when i found out that my sugar count is only 91, i rejoiced!!! all along, i've been wrong with what i thought that i am a strong candidate for that not-so sweet illness. to think that i had my breakfast just 3hrs before that count.. to think that i am a convicted choco addict (yes, i'm guilty..) as evidenced by the fact that i (almost!) never run out of stock in my cabinet.. to think that.. oh, never mind! i'm just so happy now. :)

multi-media course on blogging

I'm evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they're letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.

It covers:

  • The best blogging techniques.
  • How to get traffic to your blog.
  • How to turn your blog into money.

I'll let you know what I think once I've had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it's still free.

cruisin' at slex - part 2

where was i? okay, yeah now i remember. i was at slex right? well, i encountered this what i call as, "death-defying swerving machine" a.k.a. public bus. my instict suddenly reminded me of what i was taught in my driving school - defensive driving. well, that serves me right 'coz i arrived in alabang safe and sound. my adventure there is another story. but for now, let me fast-forward by talking about what happened when i was on my way back home. i was again at slex. as i drove, i watched out for the sign that says, "to tagaytay". but i found nothing! then, i began to be filled with horror again! (that's an overstatement, by the way. hehe). this time, i could feel the sweat easing on my forehead. how could i not? it was dark already. then, i saw the sign that says "southwoods exit". should i go in there or not? but i did not! i drove past that and continued on my crazy journey. that time, i was hoping i wouldn't, but i was already half-expecting to, read a banner saying,"welcome to camarines sur!".

then, as if a bright light signaled me to read the sign, "to carmona/dasmariñas", i decided to make a right turn and made my way to carmona. i stopped by a gas station and asked for directions to dasmariñas. there i was told that i was heading towards... the opposite direction! well, it's okay. i've only driven for about 100meters only from where i was supposed to take a right turn instead of left. so, i made a u-turn. then i passed by southwoods.. as i tried to dissect whether it was a bad decision to take carmona instead of southwoods, i realized i was still thankful that i did not choose the latter. had i taken it, i would have gotten lost as few vehicles entered that subdivision. i did not also take the shortcut road going to silang. it was a road less travelled anyway especially at nighttime. when i reached dasmariñas, i heaved a sigh of relief. i began singing (or was i already screaming then?! i wonder..) to my heart's content trying to outdo the singer on the radio while driving a familiar uphill route to tagaytay. whew! what a journey!

cruisin' at slex - part 1

what an adventure! yesterday, i mustered all my courage to go to alabang all by myself! i was unsure of the route but nevertherless, i jumped right in and hit the road. all i had with me was a trickle memory of the path my boss & my colleague always chose whenever we travel to manila. "trickle" in the sense that.. never mind! just read on and you'll understand why. anyway, from tagaytay i took a right turn to silang then proceeded to carmona. everything went out smoothly. i hummed as i listened to the music over the radio. however, i began to panic when i entered southwoods! i was confused which way to take! there i wished i hadn't taken a nap or chatting with my colleague or texting or talking on the phone while travelling! i should have paid attention to the landmarks we passed by.. good thing, my sixth sense ordered me to follow those vehicles ahead of me although the rebel in me was screaming to go against the tide. to make the story short, i finally found my way to slex and cruising at a devil's speed (forgive my profanity). it was a mad rush! to be continued..
