Happy Halloween!!

I never experienced a Halloween event, but in my own way i celebrate it through watching horror movies, with zombies and the like. Making my day like a "Terrorific" one. Sometimes if im not in the mood to watch movies, i play online games, like today, im playing Legend of Edda which just started its open beta season. I join their celebration of Halloween ingame and i find some fun in there.

Halloween can be celebrated by a lot of ways, it can be through story telling, camping and sharing of stories, watching cds/dvds, playing games or the traditional way of wearing costumes and make yourself look scary and make others frightened to white. Here in the Philippines, people are adapting the ways of Halloween from other people/country, they too are wearing costumes now and put on make-up to make them look frightening. I too would want to put on costume but im alone so i guess there's no point in doing that, but maybe soon if i had some friends at home.

Right now, im braving my self up to watch a horror movie marathon, i just hope i can make it. BEWARE! Those who are easily scared and have heart problems, I strongly not recommend you to do this as this could lead to possible complications and problems. As for the others, Have FUN! and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA..





P.S. Oh and remember, at the end of this event, of course it'll be November 1, and its all souls day. Don't forget to pay respects to your dead relatives and pray for them.

Choosing Blogger as my weblog

I chose Blogger as my weblog because of its easy functionality and less hassle way make posts and its interface is not that confusing. I can say that its simple but at its best or might even be better soon. I can also change its design, add widgets and gadgets, its fast and reliable way of blogging. It just suits for the type of blogger i am and so i chose this as my weblog for convenience.

Coming Back in Blogging

I have not been online lately here in my blog for quite a while now, it must have been that I'm not really used to it yet or seems like i was kinda lazy back then. Well, as of now for a change, I'll try to post a lot of things in my blog about all my experiences, school work/requirements, games i played, places i went to and a lot more. So basically it'll be like a general blog containing a lot of things, it may be bad or good, it doesn't matter as long as it has a sense in it.

Since i got a subject in my studies that teaches about blogging, i learned a lot from it and hard as it can be, putting an effort to this blog might come in handy for me in the near future since i have a feeling that this can help me put up a name for myself, my works and for people to learn about things too.

Starting today, earning is one of my primary concern and i wish this can help me sort things out.
