Adwords Fundamental Seminar

Last June 10-11, 2014: I and my search marketing team attended a Google Adwords seminar held at Alphaland Southgate Tower Magallanes. It was a two day event and our speaker was none other than Ms. Marie Lu from WideOut. She's a certified digital marketing manager and has extensive experience on handling Adwords campaign. I also forgot to mention that she's also an Adwords certified too.

As a participants or attendees of the seminar we are oblige to bring our own laptop because we will use it on the 2nd day to take the online exam on Advertising fundamentals from Google Partners. Anyhow, we are very lucky that we only pay 600 pesos per head for the event because our company is one of the Google Partnered companies. We chance to avail the 90% discount from the actual amount of 6,000 pesos.

The search marketing team with our expat web content creator - Kuda!
The pioneer search marketing team or as I call our group - The Survivors!
L-R (Teresa, Maricris, Me, Eduardo)

The event coordinator at WideOut also gave us this hand book that contains screen shots of our lesson.

New URL Address: Cinscortes.blogspot.com

Opps! Sorry if I changed my blog address from livewiselivefree.blogspot.com into cinscortes.blogspot.com due to work related purposes. I am planning to use it on my visual resume that's why I've decided to rename it.

Anyhow, I am begging you all to please, please do visit my blog! I know that there are many things that I need to improve here in my blog especially on the way I write my entries. I take this as a baby step to hone my skills in blogging or writing! Yayy. So please exert more patience on me.

On the other hand I promise I will do my best to keep my blog more updated with what's happening with my life especially my cyst operation that I had this 1st quarter of 2014. It sounds scary but hey I survived my second under the knife experience so stay tune for that. Over and out.

Happy Kitten. That's my face when I successfully update my blog template and revise my URL address. I can't believe I can still read CSS codes after all this years. Stock knowledge, eh!

Dim Light

Twisted world apart
Broken dreams that meant to be fix
Promises that are made into ashes
How can I survived with this?

I can't breathe, blurry images is at my sight
How can I go on with this?...
Then silence came-
I can't utter any words to say

Let the riddles be solve
In a way that I cannot fathom
Oh why? why? why?
How can I stop in this mingling world?

If sincerity can be spoken
No one will be hurt
No one will gonna cry
No one will not shed blood

Saturday Date with Iza

I already mention here about my best friend Iza (Pusa) in my previous blog post: Nars Make-up with Janice Daoud and Dinner date with Iza. We we're former workmates when we were at Neuron Global but we part ways after we resigned from that company. Last June 28, 2014 we coincidentally met in a situation that it's totally funny. It has something to do with a career growth and finding a stable company to work with. I guess you know what I am talking about so be quiet. Shhhhhh.

Beautiful view and weather outside: It was a sunny day
We had our dessert at Sonja cupcakes, Glorietta 2. We ordered red velvet for 85 pesos each. The cupcake is moist and I love the citrus flavor of the white frosting though I shamelessly scrape the portion of it away from the cake because it is very sweet. That's one of the qualities that is weird about me because I am not very fond of super sweet dessert. Huhu.

Our yummy red velvet

For Him

Sleepless nights could have been a goodnight if you were here by my side.
I should let you enter in my life before without hesitations
Loving you is the happiest moment of my life
I will never change; I will make my life better with you
I hope our future will be as happy as the ray of light of the sunset
I certainly love the way you smile, the way you joke around
The way we giggle on simplest joke that we throw to one another
Oh I love you dearly, hope you will never leave me--

My Sebaceous Cyst (before the Operation)

I went through another surgery last March 1, 2014 at Makati Medical Centre. It is my second under the knife experience after my first operation on my left eye to remove the chalazion on my upper lid. Luckily the two operations that I had are not major one.

Anyhow, I had my sebaceous cyst remove in left lower side of my back. I had it 3 years ago but didn't take necessary actions because I am lazy to go to the doctor (my fault). Back then it is very small and not painful to touch but last month the cyst got infected. Here's the picture of my sebaceous cyst for your reference:
I panicked and went to the general surgeon to have that thing checked. The doctor advised me to undergo an operation so that it will not become worst and it will not grow bigger! To be honest I am very scared when he told me that. At the back of my mind I am thinking "I don’t want to have another surgery".

When I was still waiting in the line outside his clinic I was hoping I can get rid of the cyst by taking medications but I was wrong. So anyway I had to choose and I decided give the operation a go. I will post another blog entry about how's my operation went through so stay tune for that.

Thoughts

I have a bad headache right now and I can’t think of the right things to do. I can’t focus. I am really depressed and frustrated. I feel like I have no future. Oh I don’t want to feel this dark negativity on myself but the thought lingers on my mind. I want to do something to prevent or stop this but I can’t. I want to let go but I am holding back because of my obligations to my family. Being the eldest daughter among my two siblings is hard. My father’s compensation is too small for our daily needs. He’s an alcoholic and he has this bad temper when he’s drunk. I hate him but at the same time I love him because without him I can’t go to school and have a decent job that I have right now. My mom is a plain housewife. She’s sweet and caring but sometimes she’s lazy to an extent that she will make stories favourable to her to sneak away from doing household chores. I love my mom so much and I believe I am her favourite daughter. Hehe. I hope I can have an extra job to help maximize our monetary budget every month. I also love my two lovely sisters. They are my source of joy when I felt bad at the office, I have a fight with my boyfriend or anything that’s bother me. We often quarrel sometimes but we easily fix our differences fast! I love my family so much although we’re not that rich. We may have problems but hey I am not complaining about it because I know we can survive it through the rain.

At Rest

My life has been complicated lately. I am tired and burn out because of work that I want a breath of fresh air. I want to take a one month vacation off of work perhaps I will go to the the beach or somewhere quiet place. I want to soak under the sun and let the time pass by without worrying about report deadlines, analysis and presentations. I just want to chill out, loose myself but because I have no budget yet-- I might take asylum on my bed. Good night Manila.

Unaided

I cannot contend how the blues got me wary
I cannot think of the right words to say
Maybe because I was left there in the dark, shallow water
Or was it my decision why I was there. Alone
I promise not to cry but tears just keep on rolling down my eyes
Tinge of red is everywhere. I scream on that gloomy side.

I’m feeling a bit of a Monday blues

Thank God I am not late today or got stuck in the traffic on my way to work. I even successfully beat the alarm by waking up early! Yayy, for me. I want to gush about it and tap myself at the back because it rarely happens. LOL. A little update I now know my weight because last Friday I took the annual physical examination test. It is a requirement in my current work right now to secure that we are in a good health and err in good shape too. I am a bit afraid about the result because I have a problem before with my chest X-ray. I'm crossing my fingers that it will be a good result. I will update my blog about it. Ciao!

This and That

I want to buy something nice for myself today. I want to buy Chelsea boots, BB cream from The Body Shop, a nice lipstick from Revlon, new tops & shirts and oh I also want to colour my hair. Long pause then sigh. If only I have enough budget to buy these stuff. Huhu. Being a broke girl isn’t a good thing. I wish I have a money tree. Arghhh. I need to earn extra money. Whininggg.

In Need of Job

I am thinking to get a side line  aside from my regular work because I want to save lots of bucks for something that will make me happy such as travelling to other places, buying make-ups, clothes, shoes and of course saving for my future. Finding an extra job in my part is very hard maybe because I don’t have that much connection. You see I am an introvert. I don’t make friends to people that I don’t know. I am very shy and quiet too. Oh life, it is indeed so sweet but lot of struggle on my way. Hopefully I can resolve it. I will post an update as soon as I landed a new job or I find a side line.

No More Selfie Pictures

So today, I deleted my corny pictures that I have uploaded on Facebook when I was still on my err teenage days (sniff, sniff). Viewing those pictures of mine reminds me of my wonderful, crazy and silly memories that I’ve done during my younger years. Come to think of it before the word “selfie” takes its toll in the internet that I, unknowingly belong to those teenagers or even individuals who love to take their pictures on the best possible angle! Whether it is walling, planking, duck face, look-up pose and many to mention styles that I know you guys knew already. Yeah, shame on me. Anyway, I already clean my albums and I can say that I successfully remove those images. Kudos to me! No more ugly pictures of mine in the internet. I love it and because of doing it I save space on the virtual world.

I think we should not litter the internet with bad files, negative write-ups and annoying articles. Let's make this world a happy place.

Gong-Pagong

Tinamatad ako as in tinatamad talaga. Di ko alam if ano yung uunahin ko. Nakakapagod ng magwork pero kailangang magbanat ng buto. Minsan iniisip ko na sana naging mayaman na lang ako or di kaya manalo ako sa lotto. Yung tipong gusto kong mapanaginipan ang 6 lucky numbers na lalabas sa lotto bukas. Kapag nagbabasa ako ng blog at nakikita ko yung mga sites ng mga hinahangaan kong mga popular bloggers na may mga magagandang damit, sapatos, gadgets and etc. or kumakain ng masasarap na pagkain naiinggit talaga ako. As in para akong naglalaway na sana ako din may ganyan or sana ako din makakain ng masarap na dish na yan. Alam ko naman na masamang mainggit pero di ko mapigilan e. Tao lang talaga ako, vulnerable sa mga material na bagay dito sa mundo. Alam kong di material na bagay ang makakapagpasaya saken pero siguro di nyo rin ako masisisi kung maghangad ako ng ganun.

Wala pa kong asawa't anak. Ka’da sahod may binibigay akong budget kay mama para sa pambayad ng kuryente, tubig at pang groceries. Pinapaaral ko rin ang bunso kong kapatid sa kolehiyo. May naitatabi naman ako kaso ang mahirap lang kapag ganito ang sitwasyon mo kagaya ko is alam mo ang halaga ng sentimo ng perang pinaghirapan mo. In short nanghihinayang ako kapag nakakagastos ako ng 4,000 pesos sa isang sapatos lang or di kaya ang bill ko sa pagkain ay umabot ng 1,000 pesos. Parang ang gulo ko lang nu. Pero mahirap talagang pagkasyahin ang pera lalo na kung gusto mong magsave para sa kinabukasan mo. I mean para sa emergency funds. Naranasan na kasi naming pamilya na maubusan ng budget nung nagkasakit si mama. Ayaw ko ng mangyari yun ulit kaya sinisigurado ko talagang may natatabi ako sa sahod ko ka’da kinsenas.

Dahil sa pagsusulat ko ngayon gumagaan ang pakiramdam ko. Aminado ako na di ako magaling mag-ingles kaya siguro tagalog ang teksto ng blog ko. Paminsan, minsan siguro magko’conyo-conyohan ako pero minsan lang yun! Eto pala ang first post ko sa ngayong month. Kung madami man ang makakabasa nito sa hinaharap magpapasalamat ako pero oks lang din kung wala atleast alam kong ang aking mga hinaing or rants ko sa buhay ay ako lang ang nakakaalam. Bwahahaha.

I don’t want a hair rebond!

Yeah, I am a stubborn chick like that. I don’t want to straightened my hair because I know that it will only look good on me within 6 months but after that it will be a hell months for me because my hair will starting to grow again and those hair that isn’t treated with straighteners will peekaboo again.

My hair is semi-curly and frizzy. I often use conditioner to get rid of that frizzy-ness thing and a hair serum too. Enough said, I don’t want to do hair rebonding in my curly, dry and frizzy hair because the treatment is too long. It will usually take 5 hours to sit on that freaking chair and watch every seconds, minutes and hours passed by. You will also unable to wash your hair for three consecutive days because the hair needs to sip the chemicals that they use to straight it. So it’s totally a “tiis ganda” moment.


Mind you, I already had an experience doing hair rebonding on my hair thrice before I truly understand that it is not the answer to my hair problem. After that I learn to love my hair, use hair conditioning and hair with keratin treatments to stop the frizzy-ness.

Traffic Jam, Again?!

I am totally bored and I don’t know what to do. I already finished my task and I don’t want to build too much links to my website that I am handling right now. Okay just to kill time I decided to create an entry to my blog so here it is.

Monday is a panic day for me. As always I came late in the office due to heavy traffic at the South bound lane specifically along Nichols area (I live in Manila, Philippines and heavy traffic in the morning is a normal thing here). I woke up 4:50 in the morning and prepared simple breakfast then had a quick bath. I usually left the house 6:00am, due to heavy traffic I change the route that I used to take I’d usually took one jeepney ride to lower Bicutan and one tricycle ride to upper Bicutan terminal but instead I’d go to Sucat because the bus there isn’t that crowded compared to Bicutan.

I was on the bus at exactly 6:30 in the morning and that time is just right for me to come in the office 10 minutes before the operational hours which is 7:30am. To my horror the traffic in the Nichols area is bumper to bumper!   So there I was stuck on the bus and obviously late.
