Sunday is Fun, If I Keep Myself from Falling Asleep 2008-10-28 05:03:37 The weekdays had been hectic. I have been working the whole week real hard between the day job, part-time and graduate school pre-semester activities. On graduate studies, I am still trying to get the hang of it: listening to professors talking about things in a more formal way, meeting classmates who are older than me (others are younger) and additional hours away from home.

Financial Accounting And Technology Commercialization 2008-10-28 05:00:56 Yesterday was the last day of our preparatory courses for the graduate studies.

Keywords and Page Rank 2008-10-04 11:15:25 Not much opportunity from socialspark but I am still grateful for that particular site because I was able to explore more areas of the cyberworld through online buddies from that social network.

Slow Down Your Thoughts, Don't try Blocking them 2008-10-02 13:34:11 Finding something to do is not as difficult as it seems, but something that pays is a totally different issue.

Silence means Something Good is Happening 2008-09-28 10:31:19 I have been silent for awhile now. Not by choice though. The usual volume of work from my day job was reduced but going out to other places to promote the company had taken whatever time made available after the new staff was hired. So instead of getting it a little bit easier on the day job,I ended up doing more. No,no complaints here. I just want my share of readers to know that I am still here Read more:Happening

All About Migraine 2008-09-02 00:45:50 I have skipped blogging lately. I had plenty of unfinished entries because I often find myself running out of something to say in the middle of a blog.

Etsy has been my favorite hang-out lately. If you count the poker sites that I have Read more:Migraine
