feeds, anyone?

i'm not about to put up an explanation on how feeds work, though i'm giving my two cents on it... errr, and probably a little bit of an explanation too (as opposed to my first statement).

honestly, up to now... i'm not sure how it truly works and how useful it is to regular web browsers like me. but since it's getting mainstream (or is already), i tried to get my hands on it... by applying at Feedburner. :)

blogger blogs have their own rss/atom feeds, you just have to key it in either of these formats:

//bloggerusername.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
//bloggerusername.blogspot.com/atom.xml
//bloggerusername.blogspot.com/rss.xml

by knowing that, you can create a link of it to your main page so your visitors can take a look and subscribe if they wish.

also, by knowing the feed link of your favorite websites, you can 'feed' their addresses to 'Feed Aggregators' --- these are free web services that offer to monitor your subscription in a single account so you don't have to load multiple pages to check for updates... like Feedburner. hehe, i guess what got me lured into it is that i get to see how many subscribers i have. i'm not really interested in subscribing to websites, i think it's more fun to load them each... to appreciate the design and all. rss feeds come in really crappy templates.

*ohbytheway, i think most aggregators don't honor OLD blogger users.

hmmm, as far as i know, there's a Feed option in IE7 and Firefox that you could use to bookmark your favorite site feeds, but i really don't know how different it is from the 'Favorites' option which works almost similarly. >____>;

oh, and for this day...

after church, we went to mall of asia. :) i was with my family plus my cousin- mark, we brought him along to buy him new clothes and stuff... hehehe. we had picnic in the car again... and was delighted to see we're not alone! a certain family in a van, 2 cars away from us, is also having their own picnic, facing the side of the parking building where manila bay can be seen in its beautiful glory. hehehe

haha, and theeeen... we just walked around. bought blah blah blah. mommy treated us to starbucks, yehey. then i bought terai a donut from krispy kreme (first time!), ang mahal, pero heaven naman pala. no wonder. next time, mag-iipon ako.

waitwait, while i was walking to starbucks near imax... bumabalik yung mga memories ko with mike. hahahaha, kinakabahan ako pero keri lang. he wasn't there though, joaqin was (haha close?)! actually, sya nanaman. sya rin yung dati eh, though during that time, nandun pa si mike... i wonder what happened.

free kaya yung used coffee grounds na naka-pack dun? i was planning on getting one! hehehe, i want to plant sunflowers. hahahah

extremely bored

you know what happens when i expose myself too much with my blog?

i get sick of it. it makes me want to change layouts over and over again.

while i didn't do a major revamp right at this moment, i did eliminate some sidebar elements like the larger than life icons and the forewarn, i moved them to the About page (check above links). i also got rid of the Feedjit live visitor log. i figured that i shouldn't be giving a major damn to people who visit this blog unless they COMMENT or actually told me that they came. i'm so tired of fishing for indirect flatteries (ie. checking my stats for repeating visitors and wanting to track their location via IP add) hahahaha. maybe i should just... err blog away! blogabooo! whatever. hehehehe oh, something's telling me that if i were a celebrity or just someone who writes really sensible and insightful entries, i could be drowning in traffic right now. but guess what, i'm not.

one thing i added that might actually prove useful, Feeds. Blogger has an automated feeds page for each account, usually it's at the bottom of the page which says 'Subscribe to Posts (Atom)'. not at all noticeable. when i imported the haloscan thingamajig in this blog, the Posts Feed was replaced with a Comments feed instead, and who the heck needs a Comments feed? so i looked for the atom feed of this blog and gave it a spot right there on the top of the sidebar. :)

iwannaswearaloudreally! i was searching for feed icons like what you see with the feed link tuyeryt, and i believe i sort of sacked another imbecile bug or something more harmful. damnitall. and you know, watdapak, i hated what happened afterwards. i couldn't (for some stupid tight asshole) simultaneously access photoshop and internet explorer. damn it for ruining my multitasking jigs. what more, i couldn't open 'blending properties' at photoshop. wtfck. really really ruined my day.

and so i shall turn over this computer to my sister in her quest for a feasible thesis topic.

totally pissed me off like hell in a bullcrap.

back to haloscan :)

i brought back my old comment moderator, haloscan! hehehe :)
that's all. hahahaha

please comment and make me happy! i don't care if the entry is a super old one hahaha

probable schedule

i haven't finalized it yet. though i didn't have much problems enlisting even though i was given an initial load of just 5 units a month ago. oh anyway, i like it. though some breaks are too small to go loitering around. i would have preferred a continuous schedule without breaks. at least i don't have to worry about finding someone and someplace to spend the break with. i realized going back to the apartment in between short breaks can be lethal (like what i did last sem), i can just be lulled to sleep before i even considered walking to my next class.

anyhooow. i'm scared. freakin scared of failing again and again. but look, the worst that i could get for this sem is a probationary status ohyeah, i'm being a pessimist again. it could be math36 or chem32 (agaaaain, those two) or both. i guess i could handle physics and stat with enough sweat and grime to toil with.

and hum2. i'm so looking forward to it. why do i only have 1 (to none) fun subject every sem? last last sem, i had no fun subjects, even GEs can prove to be a prick in the ass with just the most stupid professors. last sem, i only had 1 fun subject... hum1 because i had crush there bwahaha. oh, when i was a new freshman, almost every subject is worth looking forward to because i share most of my subjects with a crush. hahahaha anyway, those were the days. >___>; i'm getting older and it's not fun flailing over crushes still.

for some odd reason

i'm excited to go to school. maybe because i'm thrilled to 'get a life' or something, to fix what i've broken for the past 2 semesters. not that it guarantees a better life, but at least i actually felt 'cheerful' about facing another impending doom.

i'm very pessismistic when it comes to writing acad stuff (if you notice), it's all part of a facade i'm playing. i'm not really pesimistic (hth do you spell that?) with it in reality, i'm trying to balance things out. i'm not expectant of anything marvelous to unfold during my university days, either way, i don't want to put up with so much drama telling you guys how pathetic my scholastic life is. i don't understand what i just wrote. hahaha

hello.hello.hello. this is crazy.

last night I watched Ikaw Pa Rin (Bongga Ka Boy) at SMF with my family. we went out because my sister kind of pissed my parents off with their broken promises of going to the mall to watch... so she got mad and shit and whatever. how childish, immature and ultimately spank-worthy... if i only were a kuya who is at least 3 years older than she is, i'll spank her to death and make her do pushups for ever speaking ill of our parents. anyway, we cooled down... she cooled down after i sort of reprimanded my mom for making promises she doesn't fulfill... then i talked to her and said we're going out and i made her take back all the harsh things she said and blah blah blah, she gave me a donut! ohyessss!!! :) now that's out of the question, i know. hehehe

I'M BORED. i really am. i'm keying for a DVD of Romantic Princess. hehehe ♥ ♥

forbidden kingdom

i told you i love Jackie Chan to bits! all of his movies are great! i watched FK with my sister awhile ago (deebeedee) and i was entirely amused the whole time it was playing!! hahahaha, I'm really happy right now! JC made me happy! :) and the deebeedee, which is a pirated single movie disc worth 35, is really worth 35 for a single track. it was sooo CLEAAAAR! the clearest in my entire pirated-dvd-watching-life. although it was confusing having crappy subtitles even when the language is already english. you can't just ignore that you know, and the audio's quite a goof in some parts. but's those are very minor things to endure, what's important is that it isn't jumpy and pixelized. :) that alone makes me want to patronize more pirated dvds.

justkiddingbro.

and now...


May taga CALAMBA ba dito? or LAGUNA? Let me know! Let me know! hehe :)

it's not crack, it's weed!

i'm feeling a bit cranky right now. i have a, err, mild headache, prolly due to the weather which is at a disagreeable state. and well, i'm hungry. there's no enough food to satiate me, which is why i got out awhile ago carrying what coins i had to search for some 'food' which roughly translated to chips and candies and some biscuits. waaaaaaah. i only got 3 tomi's, 3 hany's and a strawberry rebisco cracker. it's not enough!!!! barely!

so i just kept quiet, sliced some apple and ate it with caesar dressing. hehe, that quite made it. hahahaha

ate theresa finally brought some dvds! ohyeah, i'm gonna watch prince caspian, ironman and forbidden kingdom...FINALLY!!!

the first that i watched was The Hottie and the Nottie. crappy title, yeah? it's a Paris Hilton film... which isn't really fun to watch, but i was able to endure it for the most part. then my sister joined in and we watched Narnia (lion, witch, wardrobe) together... err, in preparation to Prince Caspian. hehehe

that's about it, i guess. >___>;

still unsure of my college life as usual but i'll try setting my mind on it.
whew. i wish.
