Just last week, I had the privilege of getting invited to a restaurant opening, the Brasco Pizza and Pasta pizza parlor. I was pretty swamped with everything that has been going on and I was looking to do overtime at work for the extra cash and had just started working out. Thing is, I noticed my blog hasn’t been updated in quite a while already, so I grabbed the chance and here I am writing a review about the place.

When asked why Brasco was named as such, we found out that Brasco basically stands for Bryan’s Aspirations Company. It may not be much, but then again, the thought is there and plus, it is Italian-sounding, a fitting name for an Italian delicacy.

Located in The Gallery along Juan Luna Avenue in Cebu City, Brasco Pizza and Pasta opened its very first branch, hoping to attract the growing pizza lovers crowd. 

Not that I’m not contented with my web host right now, I don’t really need that much space since my traffic’s not really that big, but it never really hurt to find web hosts that are cheap and so far is able to meet your minimum requirements. What I really look for is affordability without sacrificing the quality and security of the sites that I manage, and of course just enough space where I can upload and share my files on.

This particular web hosting provider also has that one-click install feature just like the bigger web hosting providers, but unlike the other hosts, it doesn’t have that many freebies to count on, like unlimited number of databases, etc. But one thing I really liked about it was that it has cPanel!

It’s been a while since I played online games, and frankly speaking, I don’t like working too hard for something just to get what I want in a game. First, because I play not to get stressed over something I can’t get. Second, I just don’t have the time to work too hard for gold. So I heard that there are veteran gamers who work hard for you, who gets you what you need in a game that you’re already frustrated at, and makes things a whole lot easier for you.

It took me quite a while to log in to my Dashboard and the Internet connection wasn’t exactly helping either. But when I logged in, surprise, surprise! We have a winner! Remember the contest for the free Dreamhost web hosting account?

To everyone who joined, thank you so much for participating!

Being in a city where you don’t have anything else but your job and some family, makes you want to get something that you want to call a home. You start out with renting a room, then when you’ve got enough saved up, you want to start renting an apartment for more privacy, until you start wanting to own your own house.

But even when you are still renting a room, you already start getting yourself some furniture. I’m at that stage right now. Still renting a room, but shopping for furniture already.

For a person who barely have enough time to go out, what do you do when you want to look for something?

You get on the Internet of course!

I wanted to look for some Modern Furniture , something that will fit the theme I have in mind for my future home. You might wanna click on the link if you want some pretty savvy furniture, That site has some nice stuff on it, and the best thing about it is that they ship INTERNATIONALLY!

Approximately almost 2 months ago, I won a free dreamhost web  host from this trying-hard pro blogger named Jehzlau. I was in desperate need of a web host at the time and the game he formulated was, shall I say, super entertaining for me. I’m a movie freak, so I found the contest a challenge and very entertaining.

The CBS and I were getting ready for the Sumilon trip when I found out about the contest, so even if I was up and about so early in the morning for the trip, I almost missed it, because I was late. The trip was just for an entire day, so when I got home, I got on the lappy and spent most of my day trying to find out what movies he watched for the past year and a half. And lo and behold, I got them all right.

In case you haven’t noticed, this is a personal blog, which supposedly contains all my random thoughts and adventures–or misadventures. But life has been pretty boring I started working in a call center, I barely had enough time to sit down and make a post out of my day.

So I decided to look for freebies on the net. A few years ago, if you’re in the Philippines, it was impossible to get anything for free on the Internet. But now, guess what? Yes, it is possible to get something free on the Internet. You don’t need to be a US resident anymore to get something for free.  Just a few days ago, I was shopping for an iPod Touch since I don’t need any extra new phones, but I just wanted something similar to an iPhone without getting the actual iPhone.

I found a freebie site, you don’t need to pay for anything, just complete some offers and you get your item free of charge. Hop on to this site to get your free IPod Touch and just spread the word to your friends to make everybody happy.
