Harley in Tanauan? Haha.
When we went to Pahiyas before, we saw some men driving these big Harleys and I was like, “Cool…” and everyone else who saw them. I don’t see much people in Tanauan riding Harleys, even used Harleys because I don’t think we have an authorized dealer here in our place. All I see is Motorlandia, Motortrade and the likes. Hah, I wonder how it would look if a Harley was used for a tricycle here. That one might get a lot of passengers who simply want to get their pictures taken. It would be quite a cool experience. Lol.

I just hate plagiarists.
Okay, I was checking out my incoming links and I chanced upon one that was titled, “Pinay Scandals: Making Big Bucks?” and it eerily sounded like my own title for the Pinay Scandal campaign. I checked my entry and mine was entitled, “Pinay Scandals: Earning Big Bucks?” so I decided to check out their post. Not surprisingly, their entry was copied from my entry with one sentence added in the beginning and then some changes in the order of the sentences. Look at the screenshot below (click it for the larger image) and see for yourself. I’m not going to link to the said plagiarist because that would really make his day. He might dance for joy because he would get a free link just because he plagiarized me. Duh, I’m not that stupid yet.
I’m just a bit miffed. Are people really that desperate to have blog posts that they simply copy other people’s work? Its not like simply changing the order of the sentences makes it a whole new post. I don’t mind if they use auto-blogging software that utilize free articles given out by people in article sites because its given away for free for linking purposes. I am annoyed because the things I wrote in my blog are mine. They were not meant as a free article to be copied and pasted around your spammy blogs.
Actually splogs are so much better because at least they have the decency to simply use a bit of my RSS feeds and then add a short link back to my own article. You were different and a bit lesser than them since you literally took a copy of my article, added a sentence then changed its order. That’s it. I only found you because you included the Pinay scandal list which off course would send me a ping because I am in that list. Duh.
Is it really to hard to go sit in front of your computer and actually write something that came from your own thoughts? We all have brains and we were given it so we can use it. I seriously hope its not such a hard thing to come up with a 50-100 word entry that talks about your points of view on the on-going Pinay Scandal campaign or the stereotyping being done to Filipinas, or even just a simple and short reflection on the Pinay Scandal campaign entries that you read. If you would rather sit and copy-paste all the time just to fill your sorry blog so you can earn a few measly bucks off Google Adsense then you won’t get far in life really. Your just letting your brain rot.
If you want to earn through blogging, learn to write. Don’t expect money to fall in your lap (or in your Paypal account for that matter) by blogging if you aren’t willing to write. I would really have thought that writing is one of the easiest things to do in this world, since all you need is a brain, your computer and your internet connection. Or if you prefer doing it the old way, getting a quill and an old parchment paper and start writing in that. You can also go grab a typewriter and start clicking those keys. Let that voice inside your head talk if you don’t have anything to say yourself. Don’t tell me you don’t have that? Or am I the only one who talks to that voice in my head because I’m crazy?
Sheesh, I just hate plagiarists. Online and offline. I wish I can get good tactical gear against plagiarists sadly we can only do so much to stop them from copying our work blatantly. -sigh-
P.S. This is already a 600+ word entry and I was just ranting. Now why don’t you try it? Its really very easy. Just give that brain a little exercise.

I’m sick and I want to go see MAFBEX 2008.
Ugh. I thought I’ve escaped the “cold” wave our village has been having. I got a little bit sick a week ago and I actually thought I was better already. However, I got sick again yesterday morning. So I’ve been nursing a bad cold. My nose is runny and extremely irritated that I cry buckets, my head is throbbing like its about to explode (which gets worse each time I need to sneeze -which then suddenly stops making my nose more itchy and my head more painful-), my muscles feel like they’ve been beaten with large wooden planks, and to make matters worse, I look like a hermit and my hair has been at its all-time low.
Rainy season has officially started here with the storm which Pagasa named Frank. We’ve been having extremely rough winds and its been raining on and off here. I can’t get out much because I’m a wee bit sensitive when it comes to getting drenched in rain especially if its sunny then rainy then sunny. I don’t do well in sudden changes to the weather because I have bad headaches (and when I say bad, its seriously bad, you know the kind wherein you try to bang your head on the wall because doing so actually stops the pain a little while before you have to be up at it again) which according to my neurologist before was triggered by sudden shifts in my environment as well as stress and pollution.
I’m even more miffed by the fact that I wasn’t able to go with my bestfriend, Les, yesterday to Manila. She was going to pick up her ID at the PRC and before that we were supposed to go and take a look at the MAFBEX 2008 being held in World Trade Center. I wanted to go there badly because I’m interested to see if there are any suppliers that carry baking supplies and ingredients that I’ve been having a hard time finding here in our province. Ugh. Hopefully tomorrow I wouldn’t feel so sick so I can go drag Mom to see it. I’m hoping to see if they have any books related to Amazon books that I’m interested in. I’m hoping it doesn’t rain so we can go.

Need to go back. Ugh.
I’ve really been behind my gym attendance. I know I should get back really soon but I am not motivated at all at the moment. Hopefully I get my mojo back soon. I’ve been a little bit depressed these days. I should get one of these ellipticals when I get enough funds so I can do my exercise at home. I don’t feel so comfortable in going out these days. I feel too bloated. Ick.

Maternity gifts?
One of my friends is giving birth soon and I was thinking of what stuff to give her as a gift. I wanted to give her something that she can use for the baby. Searching online for gift ideas, I found these sets of crib bedding and I found them really cute. I do think they ship internationally, but I am just not sure if it would arrive on time for me. Since I already have an idea for what to give her, I’ll go ask Mom if she can accompany me sometime in SM or Robinson’s to see what crib bedding they have. If they have good ones too, I can settle for that.
