Prenatal stage of Kuyanin.com and its subdomains

Guys i’ll be in the province for the next two or three days for the observance of All Saints day. For this reason, I won’t be able to do my daily rounds (bloghopping) during the same period. However, you may still leave messages, comments, xlink requests and/or visit requests and i’ll get back to you when i come home.

Also, i purchased a domain about a week ago but have not decided yet what to put in there. A friend who noticed the seemingly busy traffic of http://kooonin.i.ph suggested that i should commercialize this blog so i could earn pennies at least enough to pay my monthly phone and internet bills. That proposal made me ponder for three nights and weigh up the options. This blog was intended for personal purposes. At the very outset, i intended this blog as my outlet, unresponsive confidant, a personal online diary/daybook and a repository of extraordinary events in my life. i didn’t plan to disclose my personal identity to anyone until somebody discovered it.

Great Ways to De-Stress (with video demo inside)

Meetings, schedules, deadlines, commitments, Social Obligations, Church activities, Errands, Homeworks, Exams, Reports, Thesis or other Scholastic Activities. Stress! When does anyone have time to relax?

We all unwind in different ways. Some read a book, others go for a walk. When we can’t get rid of the causes of our stress, changing how we react to them can lessen the stress we feel. There are also relaxation techniques that slow our heart rate and breathing. They clear our mind, and help us calm down. See if one or more of these suggestions works for you. Once you find one, practice it regularly when you feel your stress rising.

Massage, Meditation, Deep breathing, Visualization or guided imagery (boys are good at this haha), Stopping stressful thoughts, Hypnosis, Progressive Muscle Relaxation, Yoga, Tai Chi:

Other techniques: Please read (more…)

I’ve been tagged

      Allegedly, (as i did not confirm the veracity of this) October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. To further dissemenate this campaign, bloggers have been tagging each other. I don’t think this deadly cancer could make its way into my system not only because i am flat-chested but also, i’m a man (with iron chest)  LOL. Nonetheless, i was tagged by BlankPixel. Thanks blankpixel. Ladies, if you want to promote this, here are the rules that they require:

1. Put the logo in your blog.2. Add a link to the person who shared it with you.3. Nominate at least 7 other blogs4. Add your link to the list of participants below
5. Leave a message for your nominee on their blog.

i dont know what went wrong with the  picture above. i uploaded it several times but still, it doesnt show right. the usefulness of tagging is not yet clear to me so i am not inclined to follow the requirements above. my apologies to the initiators of this tag. But to help you with your campaign against breast cancerm i must say this, “Ladies, specially those lactating mothers, be vigilant and wary of your health. Your brothers, sisters, boyfriend/s, spouse, children need you healthy and cancer-free”

PoLL: Which drawing is better?

Guys, I and my cousin dined at Itallani’s Mall of Asia yesterday and while having pasta, we saw a boy walking around with crayon s and a coloring sheet. we were almost done with our food when we started talking about our itinerary. we thought of walking by the bay while our systems digest the food but this didnt materialize as the sky started to rain cats and dogs. After a long chitchat, a moment of silence came in. my cousin broke the silence by telling me to summon the food attendant to ask from him two coloring sheets and crayons. Funny thing is, when the coloring sheets were handed to us, my cousin noticed a prominent text in the lower right portion of the sheet which reads: “For Kids 12 years old below”.haha.

We colored the sheets with crayons. My cousin followed the directions by using the color corresponding to the numbers designated. I, on he otherhand, colored the drawing based on my own discretion and pleasure. i did not follow the direction lol. We can’t decide which colored drawing is better, thus i need your help. Please vote for which drawing you like better. Cast your votes in the comments box. thank you.

How to Find Time for Yourself and Enjoy the moment

However sociable you may be, there will come a point in time where you need to be alone. Do you ever find yourself longing for some time for yourself? Most of us are so busy either with work, school, and home life that often there is no time left over to do something that you enjoy. If you’re a hard-working employee or a diligent student, full-time parent and spouse, making time for yourself is tough. Nonetheless, you may find the following ways, to carve out that essential time you need to slow down, enjoy life, and rejuvenate yourself, germane and applicable.

Planning Time with Yourself

1. Evenings (days) with Yourself. Try to save certain weeknights just for you. If others ask you to do things those nights, just tell them you have plans. I, together with mom and siblings stay in a humble abode somewhere in Malate, Manila. But aside from this, I have a separate apartment in Quezon City where i settle in during office days or when im in dire need of spending couple of days alone. Use the time for gardening, reading, exercise, thinking, or the ultimate luxury of doing nothing haha with everything you need for the day is within your reach like sandwiches, drinks, junk foods, remote controls, cellphones, PSP, pocketbooks.

2. Monthly Treat. Schedule a treat for yourself once a month at least. It could be on your lunch break, a weekend, or it could be leaving work early. Maybe you get a spa treatment, body massage, go see a movie (this i don’t fail doing), a haircut and hair relaxation, play golf (indoor with your Wii lol), facial treatment, diamond peel, get your nails done,  or whatever treat you’re always thinking about but rarely get to. Schedule it in and it will happen! (more…)

How to know if you look younger than your age?

Do I really look younger than my age as what some people with vision problem say so? haha This morning i took a jeepney ride from Munoz to our office. Since the distance between the point of origin and our office is less than 4 kilometres, the supposed charge is the minimum fare - Php 8.50. I reached a ten-peso coin from my pocket and (as i was seated at the rear side of the jeep) at the top of my voice, I yelled, “bayad po” to prompt other passengers to reach for my fare and hand it to the dirty hand (with untrimmed fingernails stuffed with mixture of grease, dead skin cells and dandruff hahaha) of the driver. I ought to receive Php 1.50 change but to my great surprise, i received Php3.00. I was astonished and taken aback. We were only five passengers and the driver has a clear view of me at his horizontal mirror. Or perhaps to his discretion, i am only a high school student hahaha. Discreetly, i opened my phone’s camera and swiftly took a picture of me purposely to determine whether i look like a senior citizen or a student. Stating the obvious, the latter is more probable haha. (more…)

Must-Have Applications - to the author’s mind.

What would you do when your computer considerably slowed down? Windows crashes more often, Computer hangs in between tasks, it freezes when you open multiple applications or simply put, running differently as before. Perhaps you have satiated your harddrive with millions of mp3s haha, helluva lot of videos, not-so-helpful and seldom-used application. For the information of those not so abreast about computers, windows utilizes that extra free space of your harddrive as virtual memory to make your computer machine run faster. The more free space you have, the faster your machine executes programs. So what do you need to do? You may burn the mp3s, videos and other large files in Dvds . Uninstall unneeded applications and redundant programs. After these two steps, defrag your harddrive. Now, defragging your harddrive using the bundled windows software will take half a day to complete, so instead, use the auslogics defrag (google for it) and the defragging will only take less than 20mins depending on your harddrive’s size. When done, run your updated anti-virus, anti-spyware programs. (more…)
