Social Networking and Me

facebook-twitter

If there’s one thing I appreciate in life, that is learning. Contrary to beliefs, most learning happen outside the four boundaries of school. Nowadays, people learn (believe it or not)  from social networking. On a personal note, I joined the bandwagon not because it is the current fad. It was more of expressing my true self virtually when I can’t in the real world. I don’t know if that is something negative but for me it isn’t.

Yes, there can be judgmental and sensitive people inside Facebook and Twitter. In fact, it is presently being overrun by copy-paste trolls and emo monsters who can’t spell. Okay fine, I’m one of those judgmental peeps. But the thing is, I love the internet. The web is a beautiful thing.  I can’t imagine my life without it.Would I want to miss out on almost everything? Hell no. And besides, it’s fun to connect to friends and get in touch with the bastards. Just sayin.’

What’s on My Android Device

Social Media

I have my Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 for almost 3 months now and only now was I able to sync my personal domain email (@ynasanpedro.com) with it.  I tried it a few times but failed. And to my surprise it is as easy as 1-2-3. To cut the long story short, I had to reset the device to factory default setting so I can use my main email for all apps. It meant erasing all the apps I downloaded and downloading them all again.

It took me around 2 hours to do this. But I’m happy my device is working for ynasanpedro.com now.  Oh and I was able to sync my WordPress blog too.

I don’t know if these new tech gadgets are here to make our lives easier or do they make it more complicated???

WD MyPassport 320GB HD: A Freebie From Smart Bro Retentions Program

Our Smart Bro Internet Service contract ended a couple of weeks ago. As I have been happy with Smart’s internet service for almost 4 years now, Ross and I agreed to stay with our provider.  Of course, knowing Smart, they treat their customers well. We have been offered freebies in exchange for another 24 months contract. The freebies available are Samsung Champ cellphone (black/white), HP 3 in 1 printer, Western Digital MyPassport 320GB HD, Php3000 worth of Sodexho gift certificate, and an Esprit Watch gift certificate.

I chose the external hard drive. I don’t have any use for the other stuff for now. Thank you Smart!

I will be waiting for Suncellular’s offer this December. My 2-year commitment with them is almost over. I have not been satisfied with Suncellular’s service, although I may say their plans are a lot affordable than others. If retention offer ain’t good, I will be switching to Smart for better customer service even if it’ll cost me more each month.

My Christmas 2010 Wishlist

My Christmas clock says there are only 79 days, 13 hours and 31 minutes until Christmas. Aside from my plans of playing the role of Santa to my kids, the mom has a wishlist as well. I have wished for many stuff before but it is okay if I didn’t have all of them. But now, I found some things that I really, really want.  I hope I can afford both, but getting one will definitely make me super happy. The bratty mom has not been naughty this year ( I know I have been nice, have I been naughty? ), she deserves what she wants.
