Instagram on Android

For Android users, you can now use Instagram on your gadgets. Just go to Google Play, and download for free.

I also created my account there several hours after it was released.

Here are some of my photos:

Business Cards

I got no business cards as of this moment. In fact I have got no business cards since last year when there was a change in a blog site written on the biz card I have.

Is this important, having business cards with me? Have I lost possible business opportunities/clients because I didn’t have these with me?

I’ve an experience I wouldn’t forget. I went to a movie premiere and when I was about to board the train bound for where I can go home, a certain lady with a little boy asked me if I also watched the movie she obviously watched too.

I said, “yes” I watched the movie that she did.

She handed me her plastic business card and asked if I have one. I said I had none.

She sheepishly (or was it just my perception that her voice changed) asked what my blog name was and I gave it.

Then she asked if I have a Facebook account and if I do, can I like her Facebook page?

Ok, next time, I will have business cards with my name printed on it but I will not give these away like I am giving away free candies. I wouldn’t want to deal with a lot of spam emails and solicitation proposals.

What if I missed a good opportunity for a partnership? If others want my services, even if I don’t have these cards, they’d probably look me up.

Forever

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I’m sure couples are eyeing where to spend this special day. Whether they spend it on a day at the beach, hiking mountain trails, checking in at hotels in orlando, or running a marathon together, sometimes it does not really matter as long as they are together and having a blast.

Of course, being that Valentine’s Day is commercially-driven these days it is no surprise that more and more people find it not too special to spend anymore. For those couples with children, this has become a family affair: dinner, out of town trips or special meals cooked at home.

“Everyday should be like Valentine’s Day” say some and in that note, I have to agree.
Enjoy the sort film as much as I did 🙂

Getting Ready

Have you been getting ready for the coming Christmas season?

One of the things that are important for some people is the way they look when the holidays are here. I’m sure a lot of those online discount vouchers are doing brisk business in time for the holidays.

Some of the bestsellers are the following:

  • resort getaways for the coming summer and after-the-holidays no work days
  • “beauty” coupons like the best eyelash enhancers, whitening, tightening, facial skin care and waxing procedures as well as dental procedures
  • gadgets
  • food/restaurant vouchers

These would be great gifts for your loved ones too! Just don’t give your overweight aunt those lipo-thing vouchers or she might feel insulted.

Big Discounts

I asked the hubby to print out vouchers that I plan to use soon because these are expiring early next month.

Two coupons are for a foot/body massage while the other two are for a Japanese Restaurant. I still have another restaurant coupon I won in a raffle draw (yey!) and this needs to be used too.

I am glad we are able to save when we buy deals that interest us. These online discount deals  benefit us who are interested to “shop” and buy deals with the click of the mouse.  Two months ago we ordered music players and these were even delivered at home. (another yey!)

I am pretty sure those who like discount codes for Personal Creations will agree with me.I just wish we have these coupons where we live because I would definitely be shopping more for less.

I hope these online sites will be here for a bit longer so we consumers can save on purchases. As long as the deals are simple and attractive then these sites surely has a long way to go. For me, I ALWAYS read the fine print before clicking on the “buy” button.

Cheaper Laptops

I’m using a laptop that is several years old. The cd drive is not closing properly so that means I can’t watch my DVDs anymore. The keyboard is missing a period (.) and > so I’m using a small keyboard attached to it via a usb. Yeah, I’m that miser when it comes to gadgets. Good thing the hubby got himself a new old laptop so I get to use his netbook when I go out of the house to teach.

Lately, there are so many deals on laptops maybe because more people are buying tablets and Android phones. I guess it’s time I get myself a new one. Or maybe not since my reliable old one still serves me well 🙂
