Typhoon Frank
It was the usual evening when my hubby and I decided to settle in for the night. It was usual although a bit cooler as it had been raining slightly the whole day. I had heard that signal number 2 had been declared in Metro Manila but I could not feel why. The sky was just a bit gloomy that’s all.
Breaking up with your friends
Breaking up is always hard to do. Millions of books have been published and many songs have been written about how hard it really is to break up with someone.
What Constitutes You
It has been a habit since we’ve been partners in school to go out and shop after we get our shy pays. We can actually used it all up in one mall visit. There’s food, clothes, “unnecessary” things and more food tripping.
Then we decided to use some of our money to buy books. More deserving of our pays, I think. Thank God there’s Book Sale. You can find books as low as Ph30.00, like I did. I bought two hard bound books, one is for Php70.00 – Little Doors by Paul Di Filippo and After Dachau by Daniel Quinn for only Php30.00. A hundred bucks for two hard bound-used books (they’re clearly looked unused to me) is such a good deal to pass up.
I’m a one sitting reader. If and only if, I find the book really really interesting. There are stories that I can’t stop reading, and would only leave the book open to go to the bathroom or eat. And After Dachau is one of those worthy books for my time. My hundred buck purchase didn’t disappoint me at all. After Dachau is sucha good read if you’re into Reincarnation and English History. It is fictional and at the same time very informative on historical matters that dated back during 1920’s.

Naruto’s Guide to Effective Blogging
Being a Naruto fan myself, I believe one can pick-up a lot of lessons from him which you could apply in life, as well as blogging. To begin with, Naruto is a simple character, very predictable, but true to his intentions and goals. You could see through him because of his transparent character. Did I strike any chord about blogging? As homage to Naruto’s immense nine-tailed chakra, I came up with a list of 9 lessons from the anime series which could seriously help you in your path to being a better blogger. I’ll call it the “nine jutsus of blogging”. Here it goes:
1) Simplicity and humility
According to his creator, Masashi Kishimoto, Uzumaki Naruto was purposely created as a simple and straight forward character because he is not very much interested in smarter and sophisticated heroes. Being that, it’s easier for fans to understand and, perhaps, relate to him. Besides being simple, Naruto is also humble in his ways. He might be boisterous, but he never boasted about what he has achieved or looked down on his fellow ninjas based on their shortcomings because he understood that he has greater shortcomings himself.
As a blogger, I believe there’s an art of keeping complicated things simple. It’s difficult but we should strive to perfect it for our readers. It’s keeping things informal, conversational, and straight to the point. That way information can be a lot easier to digest for most readers. Also, keeping your blogging ways simple will make your blogging life a lot less complicated. In the same way, humility should be an integral part of blogging. There’s nothing people avoid the most than those who are unapproachable and extremely full of themselves. Always keep your feet firmly on the ground. Additionally, talking to people about themselves and what they were looking for is always better than focusing about you and you alone.
