Personal: Trying to jettison and save my sinking ship.

So it finally dawned on me. Some things are best forgotten and buried to the depths of your life's worst regrets. Things just don't go your way. It's not just your world. You don't own it. You just thrive in it. You live to live the days that you've borrowed. The truth is everyone lives in this world to satisfy themselves. We are like our hands. We point, we lure, we caress, we touch, we grope and for the most part, we push and pull. Symbolic.

She was everything I ever wanted. She was so close but I had to push and break it apart. Tear it. Mangle it. Hoping that it could somehow lead us to the understanding that we do need each other. I don't wanna be in the friendzone all my life. But was that the point of it really? Unfortunately, things just got logically melded that she ended up pushing and breaking me apart without even knowing it. Ironic. She made me get into hard and lyrical alternative rock. I ain't looking at you Alanis so shut up.

You have no idea how much it strangles me. It consumes me even with me denying to the expanse of my entire restraint. My leniency has turned me embittered. You are happy. You look so beautiful. You were like Christmas morning and I was a kid hoping for a gift that someone already got. But I am still hoping. I don't care what people think. They think I'm stupid. They even speculated. Well, I'm not dumb and they are stupid. They are daft, gormless, deliberately noncomprehending and perceptively unintelligent. They are goats.

If you ever come across this sanctum of mine, do not be wary of me - please. I would like to make it clear that I am no lowlife who follows you around and schemes of hurting you to get your attention. Stalking is not my stuff and don't you ever trust Facebook. I do still pray for and of you. I'm still hoping which is the only thing I ever could do. No one ever made me want to run and hide then cry my eyes out like you did. You were all I ever wanted. You made me want to love and seek to be loved. Sheesh. That was sappy and corny but I've always liked sappy and corny - privily.

Seriously, I passionately abhor you. Why? Because you make me crazy. You made me want to catch you all the time but I can't cause you won't. At least, for me; at least, for now.

I'm pretty sure that I sound like someone who just got straitjacketed. Confusing and contradicting. But, however this turns out and comes over to you, one thing remains true; I l*&# you. At least, for me; at least, for now.

**Pardon. Just letting it all hang out.

Information: SEO tips to ponder on.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to go up the coveted page one on Google's search page results?

It's Search Engine Optimization (SEO). SEO is a standard mechanism that enables spiders to quickly grasp the content of a website and display them to users whose inquiries matches that of the site's contents. It is an adequate avenue by which your profile, business and your products could earn its much anticipated recognition and revenue.

The simplest way to achieving SEO is placing simple and relevant keywords on to your site. It is vital to have your site the important terms that your services pertain to. Should you be selling amazing affordable gadgets then try buying the domain amazingaffordablegadgets.com. After all, search engines simply adore keyword-rich domain names that ultimately match the users' query.

Another SEO tactic is putting keywords in the title of your page. The title is considered as the most important part of your page by the search engine. A thought to ponder though; try not to cram too much in it since it might dilute the effect about it.

Lastly, put your keywords on the top half of your page. Try to sprinkle out the word or some variations of it onto your writings perhaps by having five keywords in a series of 100 words. Still, try not to overdo it.

Simply try out the steps in SEO then you might just have your site spring up to the top of the Google search results from absolute oblivion.

Goings On 8: The Morning Stress

Today, like any other day, I woke up to Barry Manilow's vocal stylings. My pops is a huge music buff and I guess he's pretty into whatever the veteran Manilow churns out. Sometimes, it comes to my mind that if Manilow were to pop out of nowhere at that moment, he'd be one of those babbling fans who worship the almost senile fancy pants. So, I continued commiserating for myself for what seemed like forever, which can be translated to until the cd runs out of tracks and then he slides in a new one, when a song came up that couldn't sum up what I was thinking at the moment any better. Manilow crooned out, "You've lost that lovin' feeling...whoa..that lovin' feeling...now it's gone gone gone...oh oh oh." I said to myself, "As much as I like songs from the past more than today's, I sure have Barry. Now, shut the hell up!"

Entertainment: Death Note goes Pop!

I was traversing through videos of Sandara Park on Youtube awhile ago when I arrived at this one. At first glance, I was stunned with the video's concept. The apples. The bleached hair. The awkwardness. The blank empty stares and eyeliner (L?). Whoa! Its got Death Note written all over it! Who could blame him though? Death Note was a smart and ingenious manga with all the right twists at the corner. A signature stroke of genius from the mangaka.

Anyway, the track is by a certain G-dragon. According to my research, he's part of a famous(?) korean boyband called Big Bang which I can entirely recall made an endorsement film with Sandara Park not so long ago. The music is somewhat reminiscent of Flo-Rida's smash hit ,"Right Round" and Britney Spears' comeback vehicle "Womanizer"--it just came to mind immediately after hearing the beats. I hope he didn't plagiarize any of the ones mentioned.

As for the video, the artist looks weird. He looked like a typical gender-bending manga character. He seemed like a cross between a woman and a boy. It just doesn't sit right with me. Other than that, their production sets are really first-class. I've never seen those things on Pinoy music videos. It seems we know nothing but the concept of being sweet on picnic scenes, rockin' a live performance in front of a paid hord of "fans", joyrides, solo half-naked shots in a front of a black backdrop and cuts of women being sung to by the singer flashing throughout. The only pinoy video that was pretty pleasing to the eye was Sandwich's "Sugod". It wasn't much but it worked. We can't blame our entertainment industry though, for in this country, it is not that much of a lucrative space to bank on. Then again, South Korea's first world while we could hardly instate ours as a NIC.

I must say though; Korea is fast becoming an entertainment capital of Asia or so I've read somewhere. (Let it be Philippines! Let it be Philippines! Come on, Bro! Hehe)

Information: Google spreads some love for Ørsted

Google does it again. Its face has again altered form and is shaped into an emblem of one of the best discoveries in Science. You wonder what those wriggly wires attached to a voltaic cell and wrapped around a nail, and a compass is doing other than trying to figure "Google" out, right? (I must say the "Goodle" is pretty cool. Get it? Google and doodle? Hehe.)

The picture is but another attempt of Google to commemorate one important event or persona. This time the image drawn recognizes the greatness of Hans Christian Ørsted. Ørsted is the man responsible for concocting the notion of electromagnetism. What's the illustration's significance to Ørsted's discovery you say? It is but the apparatus that gave him evidence that indeed electricity and magnetism are relatively not strangers to each other. (What are the dynamics of the claim? I dunno. Google it!)

One more thing though. Notice what kind of metal wire is animated by the picture. If you guessed aluminum, then you're right. (If you answered otherwise, you're not alone. I always thought it was copper.) Ørsted is also attributed with the founding or discovery of the element Aluminum.

Anyways, Happy Birthday Mr. Ørsted!

Information: Google perceives Perseids

Google has been known to dress up for the occasion. Many times they've donned their logo with the most startling yet up-to-date images that pertains to any possible on-goings with whatever culture, tradition and season.

Right now, Google is using a picture of a neighborhood at night with a rather picturesque vision of the night sky with streaks of light all around. Now, what could that possibly pertain to?

This is a hint of a phenomenon occurring annually which is called the "Perseids". The Perseids is a widespread meteor shower that is attributed to Earth's exposure to the particles and rocks brought about by the passing of the Swift-Tuttle Comet near our atmosphere. It came to be known as such because the streaks seem to issue from the constellation of Perseus. The meteor shower occurs at around mid-July to late August per year. This year, the peak of this occurence or the time as to when it is most evident is August 12 -- tonight! So go out and bring up your blankets for some outstanding sights to behold. (Unless, it doesn't rain, of course.)
