Blah Blah Blogs: Obligatory New Year Post 2017

Its another year to annoy you with my opinions and aspirations for the new year.

ladies and gents here is another New Year Obligatory Post of 2017.

2016 (the year that should not be named) has been a year wanted to be forgotten because of the changes and death  it has brought to everyone. It was the year of the great elections here in the Philippines and the United States. And with a twist of history, Duterte and Trump won. The Olympics happened in Rio and we got a silver ending our 20 year medal drought. Nations and boarders become more tense and World War 3 is becoming more of a reality.

Blah Blah Blogs: Annual New Year Obligatory Post 2016

Well it has been a ______ year 2015.

Fill in the blanks and make it fun. This will be technically my first personal blog for the year 2016 and I would like to make this an annual obligatory blog post that will serve as my year ender report (for the heck of it) and the plans and visions for the year 2016.

For me the year 2015 is the year of great beginnings, I declared it the year of success and travels. I did had my first plane flight to Davao for Palarong Pambansa which is also my first time to visit Mindanao. I also won contest with one of the best (and practical) prize was the Acer Chromebook which I am now using for blogging and browsing. Also I also got the Asus ZenFone Laser which increased productivity with its functions and apps. 

First Blog of 2015!

Another year has arrived! But first let me greet all of you HAPPY NEW YEAR 2015 from the Philippines to the world and to the entire universe! Yes, Manual to Lyf is happy to reach the new year. There has been a lot that have happened in 2014 both bitter and sweet. Also it is another year that I am back in the corporate world after being school. Yet, I still have time to blog and attend events. 

Dear Fireworks

Its the last day of the year, I hope to see you next year. But actually I want to see you now, really it's true. It has been weeks since I saw you, I only had a slight conversation with you yet I feel happy for the rest of the day. Yes, this is a secret love letter for you and it is meant to be a coded message to you as I cannot contain what I wanted to say. 

Yes, I can say I am torpe, but if I get caught, I guess that the perfect moment to be very true. I just met you personally this year, but I am getting distracted with images of you...and me...well you know... together. Probably if given the chance I will do whatever to provide happiness in anyway that I can, no bulI$h*+, promise.

Welcoming The New Year With With Sky Lanterns at Light Up NUVALI

The New Year is upon us and ending 2012 should be something unique and significant. And I won't pass on the opportunity to try out this. On Rizal Day, December 30, We went to Nuvali, the premiere eco city in Laguna which is now becoming a popular place for people and nature, conducted their annual Sky Lantern event which will light up the Laguna sky. It will be my first time to fly these lanterns and also make a wish for 2013 and beyond.

Nuvali is also the perfect place for Sky Lanterns as it would be hazardous to fire when done in the urban area. And with the multitudes of lanterns flying up is a great sight to see as they appear like stars floating up to the sky. Which also reminds you of an animated movie which also had their annual sky lanterns. The lanterns are also specially made to prevent fire incidents with eco friendly materials. 

Well Well 2012! Where Have You Been 2013?

For the last post of the year, I want to first send a big THANK YOU for everyone who made my 2012. Yes you, the one who are reading this year-ender post. To all of you who have in one way or another have touched my life.

And I am very happy where I have ended 2012 with a more than I expected and with a lot of wins more than the fails. Going back to school, winning raffles, receiving things from friends and  events. These things affirmed my faith, boosted my morale and even pushed me to be a better person.

I do admit that there are still down times of sadness and sickness, but most of them actually provided an opportunity for recovery. RECOVERY, yes this is the word that I would describe 2012, as 2011 was one hell of a year and almost drove me crazy.

Watch Out 2012 !

Its 2012 now and MTL is cooking up something new this year.  I know that many are frustrated in making new year resolutions that will end up in failure. However I do look at it at a different way, making them GOALS. In this way there is a process to be followed, a way to monitor if it is improving or not. And this is what I am doing this year for my future project especially for MTL and the other blogs. 

And this year I think will be a year with more video blogs and features incorporated to written blog post. I am also considering podcast however people prefer looking at videos rather than listening to voice audio.

And yes, were cooking up two projects for 2012 which I have announced last year and still in the works to provide a quality output. Presenting Juan Minute and Okra Soup! Two short video shows with different  formats, one for live interviews and another for satiric comedy. Though Juan Minute was originally planned for 2011, my video experiments were the way for gauge and come up with techniques and how stitch them all together. I feel inspired to do this because of my readers like you who made the year and the blog wonderful.

For the meantime I had a video made for the new year... enjoy!

MTL Year Ender Report 2011!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012!

MTL has been truly blessed this year with growing number of readers, new design, own domain, and more events that brought so many things and experiences. 


Now that we are near 2012, lets look back on the higlights of MTL this 2011, but lets make it concise since we don't have all year. First is that MTL has increased in post due to the events and news it featured almost everyday. Which made me very busy yet very satisfied with the results.


I also encountered a lot of out of town trips like Baguio, Pampanga, Batangas, Quezon and Pangasinan. I also got a chance to be a speaker 2 times this year at Miriam College and the ICT Congress in Pangasinan.  I covered the Panagbenga festival last February with high school friends. Went to Pampanga for the CHEERS tour in Lubao and Sasmuan River Cruise. Had 3 day stay at Quezon for the BonPen Festival. 


This was also a year of video blog documenting my experiences which goes well with blog posts. MTL gets bigger and better this 2012 with more projects, more surprizes and more things keep you glued and tuned to MTL. Join us as we declare 2012 as the year of success!


Happy New Year from Manual To Lyf!
