Thanks God, There’s eBay!

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Sat, 08 May 2010 09:59:18 PDT

I was never the seller type of person in eBay really. Back in the days when it didn’t occur to me that online business would actually work for me, I was purely a spectator. Add being a wisher too, who constantly adds up everything I watch on eBay to my personal wishlist.The very first time I made a transaction in eBay was in April 2008 when I bought my second-hand Nokia N93i for a whooping price

Home Sweet Home: Back to My Asylum

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 08:04:26 PDT

There may be many valid reasons to leave home, but there are so much more reasons to always come back home.I first left home for a job that placed me in Pampanga and Olongapo in November 2008. Remembering back then, I had hard time adapting to the ways and culture these two places have. I had twisted emotions then: on one side I felt so damn free to do everything I wanted and go wherever I

If you can't be a nurse, be a nursing assistant

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 08:06:42 PDT

Nurses have become so in-demand these days as more and more people put priority over their health and with lesser people engaging in the Nursing course. That's why countries such as Philippines, India and China has been a great source of nurses to fill nursing job vacancies in countries such as in North America, Europe and Middle East.Apart from Nursing per se, other professions related to the

What's your Halloween costume?

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 07:52:04 PDT

Oh how I wish the Halloween costume party I had back then when I was in my third year in high school. It was the only Halloween costume party that I had been into, as the other costume party I attended were that of Christmas. It was so much fun. We had to walk around the campus, all of us, with all our costumes and almost all the students' attention glued on us all. So what did I dressed up then?

Gay boy goes gaga "Just Dance"-ing to Lady Gaga

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 09:59:35 PDT

I instantly loved Lady Gaga’s “Just Dance” when Lady Gaga herself, together with two backup dancers, performed it live on Miss Universe 2008, so yesterday I tried to YouTube a good record of it for me download the video and convert it to mp3 by way of aTube Catcher, as it saves a lot of file size that way without compromising the audio quality.So I keyed in the keywords, and to my dismay there

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to enchant us this November

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 10:01:31 PDT

I’ve never been so active in the blogosphere lately. But when I visit blogs I make sure I get a piece of cake that is worth eating, and browsing at Kuya Mon’s blog gave me a cake of the upcoming Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie.I am a proud Potterhead, and although I was way behind some of my classmates and friends to have finally come to love the Harry series, I got way ahead of them

Keep them ablaze, your great walls of fire

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 08:53:54 PDT

Fire provides us warmth, especially on days of intense cold such as on winter. Without fire, cooking would have been way more difficult to do these days. It's all thanks to the ancient cavemen for discovering fire by rubbing stones together.But fire goes more than just to provide warmth for temperature maintenance and heat to cook food. Fire, especially on fireplaces, also provide homes a “cool”

Heck, I'd never known there existed such a contest about flirting. And what better way to experience a little bit more of flirting than to hop on in? Flirting these days is just viewed, well, normal. Mind you, it flirting helps relationship too.Whatever flirting is to you, I am quite certain you do love to flirt. Do you get that Victory Hair whenever you do? But what's Victory Hair? It's the

My first ever YouTube video upload

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 10:12:56 PDT

I could not be any happier that my 3-month training as a nurse in Davao Regional Hospital (DRH) has come to its official conclusion yesterday. The Culmination Ceremony went mighty fine, thanks to all the trainees for their support and cooperation, and most of all for their trusting me as their, err, President. And so much more thanks to my officers who were there to back me up whenever I needed

Your college grades suck?

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 04:08:06 PDT

I am lucky to have finished college with grades all aced. Although others may not regard it as luck but hard work and determination, I really would say it is the former. Fortunately, I graduated cum laude: I didn't expect it but I prayed for it. I had a grade which I thought would de-list me from being a cum laude. If I graduated merit-less, I still would have accepted it, as I was really lazy

A Huddle of Games

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 02:54:19 PDT

Computer games have evolved so much, and I am so thankful I have been a witness to this fast evolution of video games. Back in the days, we used to play family home computer (as it is commonly called that time), these are the machines that require you to push on a slide panel at the side to eject a cartridge. But that was years ago, and video gaming machines of these days have become powerfully

I've been hit by the so-called goldrush goldrock

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 01:39:05 PDT

Darn, I want to get rich and have all the fun I wanted in life. Perhaps I am just too exhausted from my 3-month hospital training, without the pay. I am loving the training, but I would love it more with the salary. At least I will be compensated. But, sadly, I (we) don't receive any form of compensation. And yet, fortunately, the training is coming to an end, and it will happen on Friday. Hurray

Empower your thoughts, right now!

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 08:23:53 PDT

In a day, there can be a thousand thoughts and ideas whirling around our head, some worth cherishing, some forgettable. Oh these are just but natural. But if ever you would want to keep a copy of that precious thought—whether it tells of your today’s joy, anger, frustration, desperation, reasons for blushing, whatever have you—you can always put it into words and put on your personal blog.

Miss Venezuela is Miss Universe 2008

Had I not woken up late to go on with my hospital duty, I wouldn't have been able to watch this year's Miss Universe pageant.The Venezuelans have again added to their list another Miss Universe grand winner as the 22-year-old Dayana Mendoza is hailed Miss Universe 2008 at the Crown Convention Center (Diamond Bay Resort ) in Nha Trang, Vietnam on July 14, 2008 Monday 8:30 AM EST.When asked by

Wearing eye accessories has dramatically gone trendy, especially now that almost everyone puts careful attention into fashion. True, the contact lenses has gained popularity too, but still the very obvious shield (as shades) or aid (eyeglasses) for the eyes are not left behind.Eyeglass manufacturers these days have incorporated fashionable style into practical usage.

The Internet since launched has paved countless avenues for every web fanatic (or web crawlers, that is) to earn money. While it may be a question to some why and how it can make money, many of the web publishers and webmasters have already earned money from their respective websites, with cash amounting to a hundred dollars to a three or four or four figure earnings each month.But earning money

Every day is a new hairstyle day

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 06:36:33 PDT

I can still remember one class I had during my college days. My Psychiatric Nursing lecturer once commented about my having a new hairstyle again, as I had another one the previous day, and I just said, “Every day is a new hairstyle day.”I don't know if it were because of the need to be recognized or the plain interest to be a different me every day, at least in the way I look, that I had to

Who invented dice?

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 06:04:31 PDT

Dice have been around for many years and can be considered the oldest gaming instrument known to mankind. Many games from the ancient times to this modern world would not have become possible if dice were not invented.I really got curious as to who invented the dice. I got a notion that these game implements were contrived by the Egyptian, and I may be right. But as matter of fact, the precise

How to start a small business

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 05:39:53 PDT

Putting up a business is really one of my goals these days. I want to put up a restaurant to put my sister's degree in use. But before I can do that, of course I have to take things one by one. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, after all.Before putting any business, it is but wise to plan for it for it to become successful and fruitful, and to not let down every ounce of

Tomorrow will be my last day of duty in the pediatric ward in the hospital, and I am so much thankful that up to now I still have the drive to do my remaining duty days with zest. Two weeks from now will be the culmination of our three-month hospital training. And I really think I need the break....Going to duty, especially on the morning shifts, is really tiresome that I hate to wake up early in

My official Nursing board exam rating has arrived!

noreply@blogger.com (Echos Erita) — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 08:48:08 PDT

Finally, my official board rating from the Professional Regulation Commision (PRC) has arrived today. Although I have already known my rating the day I filed for the acquisition of it, approximately four months ago, it still is different to have the official rate at last. The sad thing about Philippine government processes, though, is that it is really, really slow. That is why the progress of

The miracle of the woman in you: stem cell every month

It is funny how science can become so resourceful that it leaves no stone unturned, to the point of even using the what can't be called “normal” and “proper”in the eyes of a layman. We have a lot to thank science for, however, as it has made our lifeeven better with every new hopeful study that it does that produces good outcomes for the betterment of the populace.
