Student Bloggers: Juggling Studies and Blogging

This week marks the official start of classes here in the Philippines and as much as we hate to accept it, it is time once again for us to don those already faded school uniforms for yet another long and tiring school year.

Everyone knows that as soon as we step onto the cold cemented floors of our classrooms, we subject ourselves to a life that is filled with responsibilities, sacrifice, hardships, and self-punishment.

With this kind of lifestyle, the average student can not afford to have any distractions. Still, I doubt that that anyone would stop from blogging just because school is here. Many of us may still continue with what we do and try to squeeze schooling into our already tight blogging schedules.

 Student Blogger - Can you handle the pressure?

Perhaps dealing with studies and blogging would be easy for those who only blog once a month or to those who just blog only for the heck of it. This is a problem that concerns those who are serious in blogging, like the ones who are aiming to get to the top of the blogosphere ladder and the ones who are making money out of their blogs.

From the creation of posts, management of comments, mingling with readers, networking with other bloggers, and all the other activities associated with blogging, it would take more than just leftover time from school to do all these things.

Getting A Cold Fish Is Part Of Life

I am sorry to tell you my dear friends and readers that I didn’t make it to the 2nd elimination round of Norwegian Idol. The judges told me that I had a light voice and for my age I should have developed a darker one. And the song I sang was boring. But I think the judges gave me reasons that doesn’t even make sense.

I wasn’t disappointed with the result since I wasn’t expecting anything. I joined Idol for fun, experience and etc. I was just a bit irritated with the stupid reasons the judges gave me. What’s wrong with having a lighter voice. There are lots of singers out there who has that kind of voice. And telling me that the song I sang was boring is an insult to the one who made the song (I sang Martin Nievera’s You Are My Song). I was thinking that if they want to avoid “boring” songs then why not give us participants the specific songs to sing. I think that would be more logical.

Paris Hilton Mugshot

Last night, while chatting with a friend, we discussed Paris’ jail time in California for drunk driving. And my friend mentioned that he saw Paris’ mugshot… which looked more like a magazine cover shot than an actual mugshot

I’m of the third kind… Why do I feel a little uncomfortable?

Recently, I have been told that the one will replace me as Dine-in [a bus boy] therefore, I will be working from 8.30Am to 9.00+PM.

Then, the trainee manager and my manager told me that someone will replace me [insert squee here], I was really happy. When I saw my replacement, SHE was new [I don't know if crew or transfer from another shop] and perky, SHE’ll be the replacement they are talking about.

I was going all “are you sure?” “What?” and then I said “OK”.(read more)
