Hello, Facebook!

I'm back in using Facebook.☺ I badly needed to communicate with my young women, and the easiest way is to convey my messages through Facebook. So I created again an account last August 22, 2010, after deactivating my account last November 23, 2009.

Well, this time I have only one purpose. That is, my account will only be for my LDS acquaintances, relatives, and no more.

Good luck on my facebook-ing again!☺

Sana Maipasa Ito!☺

MANILA, Philippines - The Department of Health (DOH) is pushing for a 400% increase in the tax on cigarettes. The tax hike would bring up the price of a cigarette stick from P2 to P7, and a pack from P30 to P120.

The DOH said the move would help reduce the number of smokers in the country, deter the youth who comprise 20% of the smoking population while allowing government to raise revenue to bring down the budget deficit.

DOH research shows that 4 out of 10 Filipino adults smoke, while over 20% of Filipino smokers are between 15 to 20 years old.

Discovering GIMP

The following is what I've been doing since last night till around 4am kanina. I found an alternative to Adobe Photoshop, it's called GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program).


Before
After
The tutorials are really helpful and easy to understand. Above is the first I've done. I made my picture look like a sketch. There are other wonderful tricks you can do with your pictures.☺

You can download the program for free at: http://www.gimp.org/ and some tutorials are also available.

Dreams



When you dream of somebody, does that mean that that somebody is thinking of you at that moment; or you were just thinking of that somebody before you go to sleep?

I hope the former is true.☺
