The first two here are from the ever so generous Lynn and the awards has some posting rules here. One of which is to pass it on to 15 newly discovered blogs but sad to say, I really don't have much new acquaintances for I get too lazy to hop lately :-( But still thanks to rule #1... hahaha!
No, but seriously I appreciate the gesture of kindness. These are wonderful awards. It's been quite a while since I last receive an award here so to me this really means a lot.
While this one's from a new and a year old mommy who just brought herself back to the online world. One of the first few blogging buddies of mine, Darly. Thank you, sis. I'm glad you made it your way back despite your busy mommy life now.
So, now it's my turn to spread and share and I wanna pass all three awards to Rocks, Lisa, G-Anne, Gles, Liza, Cecile, Ria, Amy and Lena. Take it away, ladies... naks!
Have a great brand new week, everyone!

It has been a long stressful and so overwhelming week. I did something I shouldn't have done and said something I shouldn't have said. Heard something... well I guess I'm suppose to hear and learned some lessons I ought to learn.
Though I know things will never be the same again, I am still looking forward to embracing myself back again. Not the relentless but the real, light-hearted 'me'.
Hmm.. working on that... Wish me luck!
Have a pleasant weekend to all!

Mood: Disturbed
It's 11:03 p.m. Just sitting here unloading her random thoughts.
I know it's late and I should be in bed but something's keeping me awake.
A guilt feeling? Perhaps!
I miss my dad. If he were here, I don't know what his reactions would be for everything that happens but I'm sure he would understand. We don't talk that much when he was still around but I know what's in his heart. I know when he agrees or not. I know he's watching over us, his family.
God, I need some enlightenment! You know how I truly feel...

a nurse, that is...
Although I hold no regrets to have completed my full college course some years ago, achieving what you wish to have become by heart for a profession is still a different fulfillment and is beyond compare. So every time I've gone to a hospital or any health institutions and come across or walk past with these people in white I just can't help but stare at them and say "I could have been one of them".
I know from within, I would love the profession and everything that has to do with it. I even do search websites and read some interesting articles about nurses and the nursing profession. And lately, I found out about this cool web magazine called SCRUBS - a nurse's guide to good living. This magazine features essential, delightful tips for nurses to stay healthy and young looking despite the stress a back-to-back, extra long shift may have cause them. I'm sure we all want to know why we shouldn’t let our make up sleeps with us during our bed time. What are those pampering ideas for nurses? Oh and don't forget that makeup tips that hold up. Scrubs have all these interesting topics every nurse's would like to know.
Anyway, back to me. Well, I know not all things happen the way we always wanted them to be. But it's never too late to dream nor too early to tell. I opt not to close my door for possible opportunities that may comes my way especially if it's something I'd love to do.

It's never too early to observe yet another remarkable event of the Philippine history. Thanks Lynn for reminding me about it.
PHILIPPINE 111TH INDEPENDENCE DAY
OPERATION 111
PHILIPPINE 111TH INDEPENDENCE DAY"The Philippine Declaration of Independence occurred on June 12, 1898 in the Philippines, where Filipino revolutionary forces under General Emilio Aguinaldo.The declaration, in the form of a proclamation, in the presence of a huge crowd, was done on June 12, 1898 at the ancestral home of General Emilio Aguinaldo between four and five in the afternoon in Cavite el Viejo (now Kawit), Cavite, some 30 kilometers South of Manila. The event saw the unfurling of the National Flag of the Philippines, made in Hong Kong by Mrs. Marcela Agoncillo, Lorenza Agoncillo and Delfina Herboza, and the performance of the Marcha Filipina Magdalo, as the Nation's National Anthem, now known as Lupang Hinirang, which was composed by Julian Felipe and played by the San Francisco de Malabon Marching band."

what is hacking and why do hackers hack
Labels:

HACKING according to dictionary is to skillfully modify a certain computer program. Why skillfully? Because it takes ability and expertise for a person to intrude into someone else's database. We ordinary internet users are very subjective about it. We think it's a crime. A detrimental activity to the IT security of big operating business companies, government agencies and other establishments. However, a tighter look at why such activity is being done may open our eyes to something new. I my self, even got surprised to this. There are beneficial reasons why hackers hack and understanding what these reasons are may help us realize that not all hackers are out there to commit a crime.
Ethical Hacking is dealing with the vulnerabilities of certain software thus, professional hackers makes it still useful by modifying instead of aggravating it. Anyone can become a real life professional hacker and get paid. Ethical Hacking is now a progressive career in the Information Technology Industry. Its fundamental role in IT Security is crucial that's why EC Council is here to help. They offer online courses in Security fundamentals, Ethical Hacking, Penetration Testing, Computer Forensics, Disaster Recovery and they certifies individual in various e-business and security skills.

That's how I am yesterday and today. Everyone in the house has to leave for some reasons so I am left all alone. Should I be glad? This is what I asked for after all. An undivided time for myself and my online chores. But why do I still feel disturbed? I can't seem to stay still. Can't keep my mind to one direction. Must there be something I have missed?
Still alone and pondering...

My body's immune system must have failed to resist unwanted foreign intruders. I first felt the cold somewhere in my sleep last night (well actually at early dawn, around 2am). I thought the fan stood still and blowing cold air right through me...half asleep I got up to check it only to find out that it wasn't even working... it's off. Still feeling the strange cold, I wrapped myself up and went back to sleep. And before I knew it my system has already been invaded. Sniffles, itchy throat and light headache were what greeted me this morning.
SIGH! First few hour stretch in the morning, I already feels like I'm a cellphone running out of batteries. I wish to just go back to bed and spend the whole time laying there till I'm alright but I can't. With all the chores on queue and needed to get done for the day, I can't. Anyway, I will still live (:

- Always choose "good" carbohydrates over "bad" carbohydrates
- Never combine "bad carbohydrates with lipids (fats) in the same meal

I have them all by myself for the last 2 solid months. Play with them, eat with them, tell a story with them, sit and watch movies with them, slept with them and even became child again with them. In short, they simply put back that effortless smile that I haven't been wearing for an honest-to-goodness longest time... they are my two most precious possession here on earth... they are my daughters KATE & NAUREEN.
Here I wanted to share some of our recent priceless moments together:
(Kate is on a pink top while Naureen is on a blue one... they usually wear the same clothes but they're not twin)
I know soon they will be leaving for they have to go back to school. But before I could even finish doing this post, their papa called telling that he's on his way to pick the girls up. Hearing that news from my brother broke my heart into tiny pieces for the _th time but I believe God is good and I'm sure He will let them find their way back to mend it. I warned myself not to cry. Funny because I didn't imagine myself keeping my emotion so well for the very first time when suddenly my daughter Kate hurriedly stepped down from the car and run her way through me, hugged me so tight while bursting in tears and said she didn't want to go. How am I suppose to handle that movie-like scene? Before I knew it, mom already wiped her tears and did some explaining to my daughter for me. She convinced her eventually and sent her back to the car.
Sigh! I already missed them.

It's been years (perhaps 5) since I last dine at a BBQ house around here in my place. There was only me and my daughter Kate left till early this evening and do-nothingness got in to me. So I asked if she'd like BBQ (grilled stuff) for dinner so mom just don't have to cook... she excitedly nodded. At the house, she had her favorite and I believe most kids' favorite too... grilled hotdogs and pork while I have hot chicken wings paired with coke. So We washed our hands and were ready to eat when she surprisingly asked in quite loud voice
"where's my spoon?" I startled! Everybody looked at her and smiled.
"We don't have spoon and fork here" so softly said by one of the house's crew.
To get through with her disappointment, I just as well further explained to her that BBQs are best eaten with free hands (kamayan) or else you would starve...and all she could say was... "Okay!" LOL! She still eventually enjoyed the food. She even ate more than she usually does.
If it wasn't for her, I would rather stay and settle for whatever is instant like noodles, crackers or just a cup of coffee. But even though it was all unplanned, we still have had some fun and loved our perfectly perfect moments together.

TERRIBLE! DISAPPOINTING! ANNOYING! DEFICIENT! LAME! POOR! LOUSY!
in short...... INCOMPETENT! and I'm obviously not so happy about it. I feel robbed every time I get disconnected for hours for a totally crappy, pathetic reasons. This is certainly not my first time to whine about poor Internet services. I wonder why am I still not use to it...

what's forever for

I prefer to listen to Anne Murray's songs especially during the night and more so when I m alone. I don't know about her that much other than being a hit maker of the 70s and 80s. She just got an outstanding set of pipes and a soulful lineup of pop and contemporary music that you will never get tired of listening over and over. One of my favorite is her version of Michael Martin Murphy's "What's Forever For." As I was looking for a music video from YouTube last night I also tried to watch some other artist's version and found Billy Gilman's exceptional and tear jerking rendition of the song. Whatta voice!
I didn't know that the song became an official sountrack of Helen Hunt and Kevin Spacey's Pay it Forward which I believe a must-see movie too. Unfortunately the embedding of the video was being disabled so I picked another one instead. But for those who still want the OST version, you can watch the video here.

I've been looking at people /And how they change with the times/ And lately all I've been seein' are people/ That would love a way of losing their minds/ Or maybe it's me that's gone crazy/ 'Cause I can't understand why/ All these people Keep hurting each other/ Good love is so hard to come by/ So what's the glory in livin'/ Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore/ And if love never lasts forever/ Tell me what's forever for./ I've been listening to people/ And they say love is the key/ It's not my way to let them lead me astray/ It's only that I wanna believe/ But I see love hungry people/ Trying their best to survive/ While in their heads Is a dying romance/ They don't even try to keep it alive/ So what's the glory in livin'/ Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore/ And if love never lasts forever/ Tell me what's forever for./ And if love never lasts forever/ Tell me what's forever for.

One of the fastest Internet Service Provider in the US has once again proven its competency in the computer market and industry. With its kick off at St. Louis, Charter's newest Ultra 60 Mbps service will be rolled out to other areas along with other high-speed products all throughout the year.
This speed will enable customers to use the Internet in all new ways including gaming, movies, telecommuting with mega-files and much more at super high speeds. At 60 Mbps, the Internet is a completely different experience where you can multitask in ways like nobody ever did before. Not only that. Charter’s Ultra60 Mbps service is the first of the Phatband speeds that takes broadband to the next level. I'm sure hardcore web gamers like my JK and his son JD would love the Phatbands ability to download patches in record time and virtually eliminates lag in their gaming.
I am not much into gaming though but I so much love to blog that it drives me nuts whenever I lose my poor Internet connection every now and then just like what it did to me last night. (sigh!) If I only had a choice.
Well anyway, the Ultra60 Information Page will further explain what else are there to look forward to and for those who twit, do check out Charter's Twitter Feed for a real time update.

I've been hearing issues in circle about bloggers and their originally written articles being replicated and posted on somebody else's blog. But just as mere issue as they were, I simply let them pass through one ear to another.
But what I've seen and carefully read this morning was an undeniable, hard evidence of fraudulence. I was so overwhelmed after comparing both articles. Exactly an 84-word paragraph if I'm not mistaken was methodically copied, used in a post and published on the copycat's blog. And a paid post at that? Wow! How dreadful! What more can I say?
I don't want to play worthy here. I admit I sometimes do browse pages for reference in some of the postings I made but hey, what about using your own words or linking back if you feel the need to use others pieces.
Thanks to my source, btw.
