I’ve been looking at the Window late afternoon until midnight of Tuesday just to see what a Blizzard really looks like.  Took photos and videos here and there. Until hubby noticed me and teased me that I look like a little kid excited to see falling snow. I feel embarrassed a little but then hubby nicely told me that it’s OK to take photos outside so I’ll get decent shots. When I was outside, it’s like I’m seeing a mixture of powder of many kinds that is falling and dancing in the air. The wind is gustier than any ordinary snowy day. Enough for the chitchat just google if you want to know more about Blizzards.

Captured 2:30 AM this morning. I’m just wearing “pambahay” very thin shirt. My puffy jacket is warm enough to just get a peek outside.

1st contest is from Utahmom, the curvy momma from Utah. My facebook games buddy as well haha. Also, she’s a proud Bisaya like me. I’m looking forward of knowing you more Ms Darlene *wink*. Anyways, she has a contest currently running at her blog. The simplest contest I’ve ever joined. The two lucky winners will win a fashion style scarf personally made by her. I hope I’ll be the lucky one cos the scarfs are too pretty. I like the black one the most. I think its perfect for my new winter coat hehe. Check out the picture of the scarfs I’m talking about by going to this page. You can also join if you like and hurry cos the contest will only run until the end of this month.

2nd contest is from Jynxedpanda, my sweetest online buddy for years now. Her contest is simple too but you can win amazing prizes. I’m also one of the sponsor of this contest haha. Don’t wonder cos I actually asked her if I can join and she said yes. Well, why not? By writing this entry, I’m helping her spreading the word about her contest. That’s actually the reason why I wanted to join all this contests. I wanna help my friends even though I don’t have this “creative writing” you may call. I love this girl cos aside from being smart she also have a good personality. She’s very kind and friendly to me and to other people. You are lucky if you’re one of her closest friend

By the way, if you’re interested to join her contest you can click the banner below for details. I assure you, the prizes are awesome!

I think that’s enough information on these contests. Just wish me luck to win. Who knows I’ll be the lucky one… “We all dream a lot – some are lucky, some are not. But if you think it, want it, dream it, then it’s real. You are what you feel.” – Tim Rice

Part of this event,

Members may vote for a Fan Favorite winner (“Fan Favorite”) once per entry per day per person/valid email address (“Address”), regardless of whether one person has more than one Address or more than one person use the same Address. Votes for separate Submissions of the same child will not be combined.

I’m calling all my friends and family who live in the United States to please vote my daughters’ entries for a Fan Favorite winner. I just wish that my family and friends who live outside US can vote but unfortunately can’t because when you register they will ask for the state and zipcode of your home address. So that means other countries can not vote.  Also, please be reminded that voting ends on November 17, 2009. Please cast your votes now!

And reminder to all my fellow Filipinos: Stop the nonsense internet fight. Ignore those people whose intention are to seek out publicity. If they want to insult the Philippines so be it. You’re not helping by fighting them!

I also changed the header as you would notice it now and I’m still removing and weeding out all the dead links and codes in this blog since I’m still using the database from my old domain.

Anyways, I will update this blog thrice a week if I’m not stuck in FLICKR. I’m so active to that community and loving photography so much. Can’t think of any words but I just love Flickr. From my personal view, I think flickr is the best online community that I’ve ever joined. I’ve learned so much and I’m learning and still learning and meeting a lot of wonderful people around the world. So if I’m not around in this blog or any community sites, you know where to find me

By the way, I did some changes on my online storage. I have removed all my personal photos and videos in Flickr and change it to pure photography and artsy fartsy. To my friends and family who lives miles away and looking for my documented life, you can visit my other websites at the following URLs just click them and don’t forget to bookmark them:

• My online photo album – Scarty.multyply.com
• My babies videos – Youtube.com/user/rikku03
• My mobile blog – Silayin.com
• My Gadget blog – Tinytuts.org

Internet is so convenient cos I don’t need to mail photos and letters to my family who lives thousands of islands away from me. I know snail mails are more dramatic but there’s absolutely nothing wrong when convenience is needed.

I will start visiting my old online buddies from now on. Please leave your URL so I can return a visit… back to blogging mode
