How Do You Let Go of Someone You Never Had?

Posted on April 22, 2007 by joiz

A lot of people ask this question to themselves, my friends ask me the same whenever they’re depressed with their love life situations. The same question runs through my mind whenever I face my own reality.

How indeed do you let go of someone you never had? Someone who has unconsciously become a part of your world, someone you couldn’t eat without, sleep without, dream without, breathe without, live without. Someone who unconsciously attached themselves to you but you know could never become fully yours.

Who Owns the Fish?

1. In a street there are five houses, painted five
different colours.
2. In each house lives a person of different
nationality
3. These five homeowners each drink a different kind
of beverage, smoke different brand of cigar and keep a
different pet.

THE QUESTION: WHO OWNS THE FISH?

I Curse You For Destroying Me

Posted on April 17, 2007 by joiz

People say it’s only natural
Being hurt, being the fool again
And that I’d be free and loved
But tell me when, tell me whenHow do I go on, pretend nothing’s changed
when I’m already dying inside
you left a scar in my heart, you killed my soul,
you’ve burned a mark on my mind

Fatty Up my A**

Posted on April 12, 2007 by joiz

I’d be a hypocrite if I didn’t admit to being conscious about my weight. Give me a break will ya, I need to look and feel great. And lately I don’t on both accounts at all.

I eat enough (but my mom says I eat too much, ugh), running around and trying to keep up with a baby queen is starving work. Trying to make a living online is brain tiring, trying to fit my usual routine in one day is exhausting. Want to hear more excuses?

Revamping the House

My New Look

Just before Easter, I decided to review everything about my website and evidently, I’ve been busy. I didn’t just do a quick fix on the blog, I decided to start with a clean slate. I actually moved the other posts into a different place so I can pick around which posts need refining, moving, deleting, etc. There are also some posts I find stupid now, I are stupid sometimes noh?

I changed my template again (I swear I’ll make this last longer) and this time, my site sure looks girly. I like it and I made the design in one sitting. The coding took longer being a full time nanny now -groan- it’s hard without external help.

Where to Grab Older Versions of WordPress

Posted on April 3, 2007 by joiz

WordPress is a very popular blog software used by a LOT of blogs out there in the www. One of which is my own blog. The latest version as of press time is 2.1.3. I have been asked before how to get the old versions of WordPress and I also have asked myself that same question long ago. There are no archive links to display the older versions of the software but you might ask, how do you get the older versions of WordPress just in case you prefer using that or need to use it?

Online April Fools

Posted on April 2, 2007 by joiz

Yesteday was April Fools and to save myself from confusion, frustration and whatever feelings, I did not go online nor did I go out. I can handle whatever stupid prank my family has in store for me but I don’t want other people messing with my head.

I haven’t roamed around too much yet when I got back today but I already found a few funny hoaxes in my mail and on Google. A local forum announced its closure (kaso napaaga ang sira ng announcement sa PMT kasi may nakahuli agad nung hoax), and Google announces a whole bunch of services (Gmail Paper, Google Writer) but that one that really cracked me up is its wireless broadband service, or the Google TiSP. Oh gawd this was a charm!

Hostage Drama

Posted on March 29, 2007 by joiz

Yesterday morning around 9 AM until yesterday night 7 PM, a bus filled with kindergarten children, supposed to head for Tagaytay for a daycare excursion, detoured and was hostaged in front of the Bonifacio shrine in Manila. The hostage taker, Jun Ducat, had two grenades without pins, an uzi and god knows what else. Guess who Jun Ducat was… the owner of the daycare center.

Dealing with Sweet Cravings

Posted on March 28, 2007 by joiz

I am Joiz and I’m a chocoholic. I think I’m not the only one when I say that it’s very usual that I get cravings or sweet every now and then. I’m not just pertaining to chocolates (enough amount of chocolates can be very healthy) but also cakes, pastries, candies, ice cream, and whatever sweet things we can get our hands on.

The causes of these cravings can vary widely but chief among them are hormonal imbalances especially in insulin and serotonin, unhealthy dieting, Adrenal Fatigue, various eating disorders from the Body Dysmorphic Disorder group of symptoms, and even in very rare documented cases, premenstrual syndrome (National Institute of Health).

The Google Home Page Face Lift

Posted on March 23, 2007 by joiz

Last Tuesday, Google launched the home page themes. If you have a Google account and uses the personal home page then you probably know what I’m talking about. I noticed the press release somewhere but only had time to tinker with it today and was really amazed with the oh so cute headers!

Google Face Lift

There are currently 6 themes available and Google has programmed the graphics to reflect what’s going on in the outside world and the design will also contain Easter eggs or hidden surprises that will open up with an opportune click at the right time of the day.
