The first day of the long weekend. I slept at 3am this morning fiddling with Wacky. Editing my songs and playlists.
I plugged in to Wacky so that I could fall asleep, I thought I could turn it off once I feel sleep taking over. I didn’t. So my iPod Touch was running from 3am to 7am in the morning when I awoke to a weird sound. It was Imogen Heap singing Speeding Cars! I turned Wacky off. And went back to sleep.
Woke up at 10:30 am, earlier in the morning, my sister had turned off the fan. I was perspiring because I was buried under my comforter …yes, not a blanket, but a heavy pink comforter.
One thing I am bothered about staying at home is the incredible amount of housework needed to be done. Fearing the fury of my Mum, I had vacuumed our room, folded the heap of laundry, re-heated the ox tail stew with corn and grilled the fish, made my siblings and cousin eat, started a fresh batch of laundry, washed the dishes and pots, boiled water, and took a bath.
Whew!
But wait, it’s 4pm and I have done more. I finally, finished priming the altered book with gesso, finished burning Deborah’s CD, printed out the journal prompts and the mermaid illustration. I have also finished checking my email (keep the entries coming guys) and finishing the meme that Daniela tagged me in my other blog.
Of course, there’s still a lot to be done, like replying to letters and stuff. But I am making progress.
I have updated two pages yesterday. One is my journal pages from Flickr and the WordPress Pinoy Link Love . If you’ve noticed that some of the images that I have posted have a watermark on them. I think that it’s very useful to watermark your images so that it can be attributed to you when people grab them. I mean, I also respect intellectual property rights by giving credit where credit is due (OK sometimes all right!). A very useful site where you can have your images watermarked is Picmarkr , you can select to have a text, image or tiled watermark and also the orientation of these watermarks. Aside from that, it’s free and easy to use.
I have also added a Creative Commons button, WordPress Pinoy button and a Yabang Pinoy button on my sidebar.
We’re nearing the end of our first contest! I am so excited. Next month I will be having another contest and hopefully more people can join in.
