To Continue or Not
Okay. Maybe blogging isn't really for me, but I do plan to try something else this time around. I'll keep this one, just for the sake I still have a personal blog, but I think I'll try my hand at writing a blog that's so not about me and my personal life. Who knows, I might actually be pretty good at what I want to try.

PTCs
UPDATE: Now including Payment Proofs!
Basically, PTC stands for Pay to Click. There are many sites in the web that pays you for spending about 5 - 60 seconds per site. I'm affiliated with a number of them, ranging from 0.0025 USD to 10 USD per click.
The first thing you need to do is register for a Paypal and/or AlertPay account. Easy and free. Although I rather go for Paypal exclusive.
Just click on the banner to be transported to the page of Neobux. A lot of people says that its the best site for beginners. As a free member, you only have 4 ads to click a day @ 0.01 USD. Once you've earned 2.00 USD, you can withdraw this to your Paypal or AlertPay account. Of course, you get paid more if you upgrade to gold. Which, not really advisable unless you've already earned, and just simply wants to earn more. Once logged in, simply click on the view advertisment. You will then be directed to a page that shows a list. Click each ad one at a time. The ad will be in a pop-up. On top of each ad is a counter, this differ from site to site, but for Neobux, it is simply a bar. Once the advertisement has been accounted, you can click on the next ad, and so on and so forth.
In summary:
PTC = USD 0.01
Payout = USD 2.00
Account = AlertPay or Paypal
Upgrade = Golden membership
requirement:
* Have clicked at least 50 ads
* Have at least rented referrals twice
* Have been a registered user for at least 15 days
FJPTC
This is a relatively new site, therefore, has one of the cheapest premium membership around @ USD 2.00 (In other words, this is my only premium account - It's less than Php 100). Minimum of 4 ads per day for free members and the price varies for each from 0.0025 USD to 0.01 USD. Pay-out is @ USD 1.25. For this type of ads, there will be a countdown for each ad, afterwards, it will ask you to click the number that appears. There will be 4 numbers to choose from. This, I believe, is a system a number of PTCs adopted to avoid the occurence of auto-click scripts. But as previously mentioned, one ad @ a time.
In summary:
PTC = USD 0.0025 - 0.01
Payout = USD 1.25 (for premium, I bet higher for not :p)
Account = AlertPay and/or Paypal
Upgrade = Premium
requirement: Lifetime premium membership @ USD 2.00
Payment proofs:
First Payment:
Second Payment:
There! Hehehe! Of course, getting referrals help you earn faster. Once registered, you're going to have your own referral code. And if you registered without any referral, you will be assigned one. You can check out more about the upgrades once you've registered as well.

Ted Failon Fiasco
Okay, so maybe this isn't exactly a promising post but there are way too many camps pointing fingers that I can't help but have my own ideas on the following scenarios. So, bear with me if you will, not that I expect anyone to visit and read after my erratic activities in this blog.
First of, the wife was acting before the incident is a clear indication that she's suffering from a lot of stress, and becoming suicidal can be a by-product of the stress. I would also like to point out the fact that she has a witness when she wrote the note, her sister Pam in fact. As for calls, the housemaids are aware of that since they were the ones who answered the phone on occasion. As for the gun shot, even the police admitted that the gun used emits only a small sound, and it being shot inside a locked bathroom no less would cause the small sound to be muffled.
The second thing we should all take notice of is Ted Failon's reaction. It is normal for someone to go into a state of shock, and at times feel disconnected and disoriented. He acted at what he saw to be the immediate concern. That was taking his still breathing wife to the hospital as soon as possible. Nobody can fault him for dealing with his bleeding and dying wife first, and returning for his youngest daughter at a later time. His refusal to let the investigators inside the master's bedroom, whereas they were allowed to view the crime scene can also be understood as reluctance to let the public in on his private the domain, being a private person despite his media job that puts him in the public's eye. The fact that he returned to his home aka scene of the crime, after ensuring that his wife is being taken care of, and there is nothing left for him to do except wait, is also a natural behavior. Having assured himself that his wife is in the best hands, he went back to be with his daughter who had witnessed the blood-drenched body of her mother. As for the heart to heart talk that allegedly happen in the master's bedroom at the arrival of his eldest daughter, it can be chalked up as the news anchorman needing the privacy of his room to let his grief spilt through within the comfort of his daughter.
Third, allegations of cleaning the scene of crime of blood, though should be frowned upon at best, it should not come as a surprise as it is the house help's job to clean. And the act was further hastened by the presence of a minor, no less than the youngest daughter at the scene of the crime. As for refusing to talk, was it not within the rights of the people to remain silent? Not to mention that it is always advisable to have a legal counsel present at any such given time.
Fourth, charging everyone with obstruction of justice is not a valid reason to manhandle people! Seriously, it would seem that they are using the alleged charge to boss people around and further sensationalize a death that is tragic and should be given its due respect. What the police had done was basically a violation of the rights of the people involved since they are allowed to invite people down to the station, not manhandle and force them to go. Again, using tactics such as bluffing accusations to the sister of the victim at the time wherein she is under shock is so inhumane. I know its their job to investigate, but unless the suspect is indeed the criminal, forcing words into their mouth would not result in something good, or in this case, a huge human rights violation. A true criminal would be very calculated in its reply and reactions, and based on accounts and TV coverage, Pam is anything but the victim's sister. Same to Ted Failon.
Fifth, alleged blood stains in other rooms aside from the scene of the crime could actually happen because of people whose hands got drenched in the blood while they are making a rescue effort for the victim. There are a lot of possibilities, but the police seems to be more intent on pining the blame on someone, and it seemed pretty clear to a lot of people who they want to blame. Its not rocket science that Ted is a very outspoken man about his beliefs and his denunciation of the way police handle themselves.
Sixth, Ted didn't touch the gun first after it was shot. The house boy did. He placed it on the couple's dresser when they cleaned up the bathroom, and it was there that Ted got it to hand over to the police. And next thing you'd know, they're going to reiterate he handed it to them sans any protective cloth to avoid fingerprint contamination. Dude, he's not an impartial expectator here, he's the victim's husband! Get a clue! Besides, the gun was licensed and owned by the family, and its not like its their habit to clean the gun on a regular basis prior to safekeeping, so duh, the gun will have fingerprints of both Ted, his wife, and whoever sold them the gun, plus, the houseboy who picked it up when he cleaned the bathroom.
I think I exhausted my train of thought for the moment. But if I thought of anything more to add, I'll make it a point to log-in and post in the future.

Ramblings
Somebody told me today that I have a lot of guilt and anger in me... and I know for a fact he's right... so he suggested I write down everything I feel...
So here goes nothing....
I feel under appreciated... not because I think too highly of myself, but because I am asked to do a lot of things with hardly any compensation... I am tired to say the least, tired of being the bigger person, of continuing to discipline myself, to be the perfect everything... to be the selfless woman of the world, to be the nurturer, the one to wish for a reality that cannot happen... I am tired of being helpless, of feeling guilt and anger of being helpless, of not being given the choice that is my right... of the external factors that are out my control... I am simply one who wants to make a difference in the world for the benefit of humanity... and I am tired of always being responsible...
and yet, despite this tiredness that settled unto me, I am unable to walk away... I am strong believer of order, and I am too much an idealist to let things simply as they are... true, I cannot save a soul... I am not the Lord... but I wish somehow I can save even one... cause I still believe that we are all in this Earth for a reason, and that's to help others...
I am torn with doing my social duty, and being selfish... I am unable to give up the former, in favor of the latter... maybe I am simply scared to know who is the girl inside me when all inhibitions are gone?
So here goes nothing....

There are days like these that makes me realize I am doing something good in my life, that in some way, I had managed to share the things I've learned and inspire others to be better individuals. The feeling that having people appreciate you for who you are is far more overwhelming than being honored for an academic achievement, since what you were able to accomplish is not something seen and read, but something that had become the source of change and improvement in the outlook, if not the quality, of someone's life. I guess a part of me always dreamed of being an inspiration to others, a role model if possible, not because I think I'm perfect, or anything close to that, but rather that there's so much I can and willing to share, and its all up to you to figure out if I make sense or not. After all, I do tend to be defiant and definitely a nonconformist, preferring to just do what I feel is right. :P

There are times I wonder how is it that our mind is troubled still when we had already made a choice some time in the past. Are we meant to forever eat our words and grope around for a new way to incorporate the events that plowed right through us? If that is so, then I am at a lost for the moment.
I had tread around and made my choice, and yet, it now feels that I have spoken too soon, made my decision at a time when I am in a state of mind, for now I am face with conflict that I had not foreseen. I do not lead a planned life, however at most circumstances, I am able to be decisive.
But what had changed within me? How come I find myself at a loss to explain this feeling of uncertainty? How is it that I am unable to determine which road to take when it was clear to me awhile back? Was it the situation I find myself in? Was it the war between fear of the unknown and the adventurous desire to seek out new experiences?
I am horribly and dreadfully lost, and I can only hope that I will make the right choice when the time is ripe.
