: How i got a debit card and have my paypal verified :

2008-06-20T11:07:00.000+08:00

I decided to get my own Debit card at Union Bank to get my paypal verified since i will not be using my sister's paypal anymore.

Here are the steps to have your paypal verified:

1. Apply for an EON Visa Electron Debit card online at UNION BANK , wait for 5 banking days
2. Go to the Union Bank branch where you specified in your application to get the card. Bring 3 valid IDs and have it photocopied bec. the bank will get it, i didn't bring any fortunately the bank has a photocopy machine.
3. Sign up a form in the bank and pay an annual fee of P350.00 the teller will give you your card.

4. Be sure and NEVER forget to at least deposit P200 or p300 (or equivalent to $1.95) to your account for paypal purpose. Wait for 1 week for activation. ( I forgot to make a deposit so I asked my friend to deposit in behalf of me)
5. After one week or so, enroll your ENROLL your debit card at Union Bank online Banking, just follow the steps
6. Go to your Paypal account and ADD your debit card, make sure you have the same billing address or else your card will not add. Once approved wait for about 3 days to LINK your card.
7.Check your account at Union Bank to see if you have been deducted the equivalent of $1.95
8. After 3 days get your 4-digit Paypal Expanded Code though your online account at Union Bank.

I never bothered to call Union bank's customer service to get the code bec. it is always busy, it is much faster to get it at your online account.
9. Go to your Paypal account again and link your debit card and put your 4digit code to lift all the limits of sending, receiving and withdrawing. Submit and if your code is correct it will be verified.

Wow, look so easy isn't it? Just follow all the steps and you'll be verified in a blink. It took me so long bec. i missed one step.. ngek

: It's time for you to get your domain :

2008-06-16T14:18:00.001+08:00

Ahhh I just love having domain names. I actually have 3 domain names: my A SLICE OF LIFE (my main blog), THIS AND THAT (my shopping blog) and this blog JENNY SAID SO. All of them are hosted by Blogger but my domain is hosted by my ever good domain server 1AND1.COM. They have been hosting my blogs for a year now and so far I have no problems with them. I have never encountered that they have been down. I even recommended this 1and1 hosting to my sister JOYD and my bestfriend RACE and other friends ZANNE and LIZ and I am confident that they have no problems as well.

You can buy domain names at 1and1 for only $6.99 a year and that is really cheap! And just in case you don't know how to redirect your blogger blog to your new domain I also have a TUTORIAL that i wrote and i think many have helped it already.

Just follow my instructions bec. it is tested already and in no time you'll have your own domain now!

: In the Blink of an Eye :

2008-06-12T19:46:00.002+08:00

Oh my goodness, I can't help but wonder how those opps were gone in just the blink of an eye. When I saw it in triple p I have about 8 opps that are actually reserved at the moment (gray color) and one by one as I refresh tha page hoping to get just even one, they are disappearing one by one and slowly without a hitch.. lol Oh my goodness, gone were the days where I am the one who is so tired in writing reviews for an advertiser. I believe that opps becomes scarce bec. of the heavy influx of new bloggers. This has given us short chances now to get new tasks.

I am just thankful that I have experienced getting a lot of opps each day last year when I started. Right now I am just so lucky to have even one job a day. Oh well that is really life...

: Photohunt:: Bad Hair :

2008-06-07T17:28:00.005+08:00

Oopps I almost forgot it's photohunting again today bec. I have been busy with a lot of things. Anyway I would like to share this photo that I took in Australia. Actually there is a parade and the participants imitate celebrities or movie character.

I am not sure who is this girl imitating, all I know is that she is "maybe" having a bad hair day.. hehe

Click..click..click....

2008-06-02T15:34:00.000+08:00

That is what I have been hearing all day long here at my net cafe. My customers are busy clicking from one websites to another and it's fun to see them how they use the net. It is just amazing how my net cafe helps people need to contact their friends and family all around the country and worldwide. I just hope they keep coming back here, I do have regular customers already. Just wishing that my keyboard and mouse will work for a long time hehehe.

: New Header for my Shopping Blog :

2008-06-01T12:10:00.000+08:00

I've been changing headers for all of my blogs and I want my shopping blog to be different. I was lucky enough to have a very talented niece and nephew that will help me make a personalized drawing.

My niece FRANCES MARIE "Kukay" was very talented and good in drawings just like her brother Pinoy Blogero KARLO so I asked her one time to draw me a girl carrying shopping bags and I was pleased with what she made for me. And since we don't have a (Wacom) tablet that professionals use, she just made a sketch on paper. My nephew JEREL, who is an advertising student was the one who put the colors using photoshop. I just told him what color combination I want.

When they finished it, I then made it into a header and put my blog's name on it and here it is. Isn't it cute??? Oh BTW, artists runs in our family hehe.

Please take a moment to view my fashion blog THIS AND THAT.

:Photohunt: Self or part of you

2008-05-31T15:39:00.005+08:00

Instead of just putting a picture of myself here, i decided to put this picture together with my crazy nephews, nieces and sister. It was taken last month when sis came home for a vacation from Riyadh KSA. We had fun posing.

It's ME on the left side, btw. Join us at Photohunters. Happy Weekend everyone!!!

Me and the Crazy Bunch !

:LP: #9 Ihip ng Hangin (Wind/Windy)

2008-05-29T09:00:00.004+08:00

I will just put my entry for this week here instead at my main blog.

Just take a look at how I hold the rails in the boat that we rode when we went to DayDream Island (Aus.) last March 2008. It was oh so windy and so gloomy that day and the sea is rough and wavy but that doesn't stop us from going to explore and see the beauty of that small island.

I was a bit scared that I will be thrown off the boat and eaten by the sharks bec. of the gutsy wind. lol

(Mahangin ba sa labas??? hehe OO naman ano lakas ng ihip ng hangin eh!)

Gosh I am having a bad hair day here!

(Tignan nyo ang pagkakahawak ko sa rail sa bangka na sinakyan namin papuntang Day Dream Island. Napaka hangin, makulimlim at maalon sa dagat pero nagpunt apa rin kami para makita ang maliit na islang ito. Natakot ako ng konti dahil sa lakas ng ihip ng hangin at baka kasi mahulog ako sa bangka at baka kainin ako ng mga pating)

Save , save your work !

2008-05-27T14:38:00.003+08:00

The rain suddenly poured just few minutes ago and as usual the street in front of me got water again. My net cafe is almost full and I have some customers replying emails, chatting or typing something when the lights started to flicker. I wasn't able to warn them to save whatever they are doing so that they will not do it all over again. The lights went of on and on for few seconds and their computers just shut down suddenly (mine did not- that is why I love my HP computer!), one customer did not saved his works (typings) so he will do it all over again.

It's not my fault I said bec. it's common sense to SAVE your work every now and then bec. you'll never know when the light will go off or when will the computer will crash. When i do typings of layouting, it is in my nature to click on the SAVE button often, in that way I will not lose any work that I have.

So the lesson is SAVE SAVE SAVE!

Good exercise

2008-05-24T14:35:00.001+08:00

For sure I will play again tomorrow morning and hope it will not rain.

: Litratong Pinoy #8 : Tubig (Water)

2008-05-22T10:54:00.002+08:00

Raining, Raining, Raining, that is what happened for the last week or so. That is usually the scene that you will see in front of my store. Those are rain waters being trapped in the streets when rain poured heavily. The good thing is that it will subside easily after the rain stops.

(Umuulan, umuulan, umuulan, iyan ang nangyari noong nakaraang linggo !! iyan naman ang nangyayari sa harapan ng tindahan ko. Iyan ang tubig ulan na naiipon sa kalsada pag umulan ng malakas. Ang maganda dito eh madali naman itong nawawala.)

I have a different entry at my MAIN BLOG.

: There's always sun after a storm :

2008-05-19T18:33:00.005+08:00

It's been raining almost everyday since last week bec. a typhoon once again hits our country. It maybe good to have rain to water the drying fields in the country side but worst happened when it turned out into a storm badly hitting some provinces and ruining many poor people's livelihood. It is so sad to see our countrymen to lose their houses and their livelihood. State of the calamities are being declared by the gov't. for those provinces that have many lost infrastructures and more.

I just wish there will be no more lives or properties to be taken by the coming typhoons. It will be rainy season soon so we could only be prepared and alert. Right now, it has been sunny and humid again here at our area but for sure when the rain comes again, gloomy days are coming.

: Will never be contented :

2008-05-17T19:56:00.003+08:00

Oh yeah, if you only know, I have been changing this header for about 4x now and I never get satisfied..lol . Chikai is right, she told me that I will replace my header once again.. Is she a clairvoyant? hehe. I wanted a fresh clean look so this afternoon, I opened my PSP again and just browsed on some digi papers that I have and voila I chose this paper from Bren Boon.

So don't be amazed when you see another header or color scheme the next time you come here. Keeping my fingers crossed that I will not change the header again for a long time hahaha.

: Are you kidding me? :

2008-05-15T13:12:00.003+08:00

I was blog hopping this morning and i was having fun reading posts from one blog to another. Some are interesting while some are so-so. I hopped into one blog and i would love to leave a comment on it's tagboard. I submitted it but it won't get thorough bec. it says i need to register first before doing so.. Are you kidding me??? Although i can do, i just left the blog. I reckon this will only turn off the blog's visitors when someone wants to leave a message. Just my thought.. har har

: Litratong Pinoy #7 : Umaapoy

2008-05-15T10:20:00.001+08:00

I took this photo while we went strolling down the street market in Sydney one time. Just in case you didn't know what the man is doing, then, he is making glass sculptures from birds, boat or any shape. I reckon he is is really talented in making such.

I have a different entry at my main blog.

(Kinunan ko tong litrato na ito habang kami ay naglilibot sa mga tindahan sa Sydney. Sakaling di nyo alam ang ginagawa ng lalaki na ito, sya po ay gumagawa ng mga disenyo na yari sa glass na pangdekorasyon gayang bangka, ibon at kahit naong hugis. Iniispi ko na sya ay talentado sa paggawa ng mg ito)

: Getting Frustrated :

2008-05-14T11:31:00.003+08:00

Ohhh I am in a senti mood right now.. blame it on my hormones harhar..Not much to say but I'm juts getting lil frustrated bec. of my low productivity since yesterday. I was hoping to get more jobs and works but they are just not there. Hmmmm.. so sad. I know there are times work is overflowing and there are times it is really scarce. All I have to do right now is to wait and hope for the good things to come in the next few days or perhaps next few motnhs? Ahhh i am getting impatient.

BTW I am very happy for my bestfriend RACE, who is dong good in her chosen "career' right now and I just wish she will be able to leave her present job now bec. she is not happy anymore there. Oh anyway.. I reckon everything will be fine..

: I'm a header maker :

2008-05-14T10:51:00.000+08:00

My sister JoyD and my bestfriend Race, asked me to make new headers for their blogs. And since i know how to make one and I have some digital stuff from my collection, I was able to make them new headers that they liked. At first I had a hard time thinking what design to put and what layout since I don't know what theme they want.

Sis Joy just wanted a cute header so I put some cute elements on it and she liked it anyway; Here are the headers that I made for her 2 blogs.

Just click the header to go to their blogs.

I also tweaked few layouts for my bestfriend RACE and this is what I made for her.

: Death Toll rises in China :

2008-05-14T10:40:00.002+08:00

I could not help but to feel sad and feel sorry for the people in western China bec. of too much deaths bec. of the recent big earthquake. I heard last day 10,000 have already died but the toll rises up to 12,000 as of now. They believe that it will rises again bec. a factory that have reported to have 6,000 workers died in it too.

This incident reminds me of the 1991 earthquake that we have here in the Phils. with 7.5 on Ritcher scale.

: Gloomy Day :

2008-05-13T10:57:00.004+08:00

It's been gloomy and raining since I woke up this morning and this is due to the recent typhoon Butchoy that we had. Well at least it is not that humid and hot unlike the previous days. Rainy seasons are definitely coming soon and we need to prepare when it comes. I just remember the flash flood that happens yesterday in Q.C. leaving 50 families with destroyed houses. I just wish our local government should make an effort in cleaning all the canals and esteros and all the families should also cooperate in cleaning as well.

: Blurry Eyes :

2008-05-13T10:54:00.002+08:00

Ahhhh my eyes are giving me discomfort again lately since I got back using my pc almost the whole day. Like I have been mentioning long time ago, I am using a reading glass but i guess it serves no purpose bec. it doesn't help in making my eye sight clearer. I think I need to have my eyes checked again maybe it has new specs now. Ahhh I can't stand looking at my monitor too much.
