In the World of Social Networking

Social networking is fun I can't say anything about it. It helped not only me to easily connect with my old friends but my relatives outside the country. I have facebook and twitter account and I was able to gain new friends by joining those social networking sites which made social networking fun but remember that you have to be responsible and you need to make sure that you protect yourself just think of the word "privacy" Well it is not only the persons who are  listed on your friends list are the only person who can read your wallposts or comments but also those people who are listed on the friends list of your friends. Now, you need to make use of the "privacy settings" there might be information that you posted on your wall or comments that you posted that you don't want other people to see so you better be careful. If possible, avoid posting your address, email address, or telephone number on your profile. In terms of being responsible make sure that you don't just post anything that can offend someone. Always think that everyone can read your wallpost this is just a way to show respect to other people. Social networking is fun but we need to be responsible.

LG Optimus Net

LG Optimus Net was announced the same time as LG Optimus Pro. (New phone that with QWERY keybord and runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread).  Well looking at its specs you can say that it is quite a regular phone but the point is this phone is a budget phone. It has the latest version of Google’s operating system just like LG Optimus Pro (Gingerbread (Android 2.3)).  It includes other cool feature for a budget phone such dual-SIM support and content sharing to DLNA-enabled devices. The said phone will be available here in Asia from August. I used to own an LG phone and based on my experience though of course Ericsson produces good pictures I can say LG can also produce quality pictures.

Iron Man 3 on 2013

Just watched Iron Man in HBO the other day and I got nothing else to do so I went online surfing. I read that there will be a third Iron Man film that will be out on 2013. I was surprised because I thought he will be back on the big screen with the Avengers. This is quite exciting because I get to see the characters on the big screen which I used to see in comic books when I was young. I guess we especially comic fans out there are so happy and one of them is my boyfriend. Robert Downey Jr sure did a good job playing the role of Tony Stark in Iron Man.

Ordering Pizza Using Paypal

I have no money and I am craving for pizza. I don't know what to do because my wallet is back home and I am at work thinking on how I can eat pizza. Then I thought how about I buy pizza using PayPal. Oh well I just thought of it but I don't think I can do that because PayPal is new here in the Philippines and I haven't heard of any local merchants accepting PayPal. But for the sake of pizza I tried to check websites of various pizza restaurants and I finally found one that accepts PayPal and that I Shakeys. Now I love Shakeys because they solved my problem for today =P

YouTube Video Uploading Copyright Issues

My brother and I were having problems uploading the photo slideshow that he made in YouTube or facebook. Whenever we tried to upload the video it will show something about copyright thingy. My brother cannot understand what's happening so he tried uploading the video couple of times to the extent that his video uploading was disabled by facebook. Going back to YouTube it shows the same thing so my brother was so frustrated that he asked for my help. I explained the that it was a copyright issues and to avoid the said issue I suggested that he use audio swap option where he will need to choose a music that he can apply to his video. You can access audio swap by editing the video that you uploaded. Bu the problem is my brother does not want to use other music than the one that he used. Now one of my friend told me to do this.


- Go to "My Videos".

- Select "Resolve Copyright" on the video you are having copyright issues with. OR, go to the video itself and choose "resolve copyright" from there.

- Scroll down and pick the option "I want to learn more about this dispute process".

- Scroll down and pick the option "Take me to the dispute form".

- Pick option #2 and PASTE the following statement into the text bar next to it;

"Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favor of fair use."

- Fill out the rest of the info on the page. Use your real name where it asks for it. Choose "Continue" when all information has been filled out.

- Scroll down on the next page and select "Submit dispute". Wait for about 2-3 minutes and your video's audio should be back.

You can ONLY do this  if you are not making any profit off your videos.

Scream 4



I was so excited to watch Scream 4 because I’ve been a fan of Scream movies since I was in high school. I actually think that suspense movies in the 90s are way better than suspense movies that they are producing today.  I enjoyed the film but I think it is not the same as the other Scream movies. I’m quite disappointed with the movie in a way I think that the story is so simple and I think the story is not as good as the other Scream movies. Good thing on this movie is I get to see the stars of the old Scream movies and I can say that they’re good. There are some scary scenes but it is not that scary and the only thing that disappointed me on this film is the story. Well this is just based on my opinion guys it always depend on the viewers. To those peeps who watched the feel free to express your opinion about the film. J

Boracay One of Our Treasure

All of us here in the Philippines knows where Boracay is and most of us have been there and we can all say that it is for real one of the best beaches here in the Philippines. As a proof it has been recognized internationally by  Travel + Leisure Magazine. It was ranked as the fourth best island in the world on its annual "Worlds Best Awards." It was the first time that Boracay was recognized by the said magazine. TripAdvisor.com, a travel site that collates user-generated content, ranked the  said island the best beach in Asia and second worldwide in their 2011 “Traveler’s Choice. We truly are proud of Boracay and to be honest we are not only proud of Boracay but we have other tourist destinations that we can all say world class.
