WildWood Store & Instagram Inspiration
So this has been my habit since I discovered Multiply years ago. I would stay on a social networking site and search for new things that will inspire me. It usually gets to a point where I really like everything I see. Then, I get overwhelmed and confused then I start streamlining my feed. I
Instagram Problems + An Adult Coloring Page
I’ve started thinking about how my life would be next year upon giving birth. I’m pretty sure that somewhere between changing diapers and chasing sleep, handling my social networking accounts or even making sure that the blog is alive is the least of my worries. One of the things that my friends & I get
Instagram vs. Real Life + Preggy Diaries Continued
I missed making comics so much! It’s been a whiiiiiile! I’ve been stuck with all the back end operations doing errands here and there. Although, I must say, that part was also a refreshing break from getting stuck and finding myself zoning out while scrolling my feed on different social networking sites. 🙂 A couple
A Love-Hate Relationship With My Phone
If I ever have a go-to gadget, that would be my phone because I can do anything from writing a blog post to answering e-mails, taking care of all our social networking sites, coordinating things and chatting with friends. But there are also things I do that make me hate it so much: 1. Mindless
What People Did During the Manila Earthquake
I’ve been wanting to do this comic for the longest time but I just can’t seem to find the right occasion without poking fun at a national disaster. Last night, I woke up at 3:30am last night to the sound of our sliding doors. I thought someone was trying to open it. I didn’t know
The Moment Cam & Why People Love Taking Selfies
You’ve already heard so many times how people would complain about other people who are addicted to taking photos of themselves. Call it self-love, obsession, vanity or whatever term but you can’t help but be puzzled as to what could possibly be the motivation behind it. There are thousands (or even millions) of other subjects
How to be Annoying on Social Networking Sites
Every now & then I would stumble upon a celebrity’s Instagram or Twitter account & scroll down for comments. What I end up finding is some YouTube like comments section where people would have already died if words could kill. Apparently, no amount of good deed can ever please the naysayers and those who want
Tricky Sticky Posts: Twitter Versus Real Life
I wish I could find that word but I can’t seem to do so on Google *which is impossible, I know*. They say that the etymology of the word ‘truth’ had something to do with concealing something. Just imagine how much stuff is concealed each time something is revealed through a Tweet, a Facebook status
Taking a Selfie
I don’t actually know when it evolved from being a camwhore to taking a selfie. Anyway, this post is dedicated to our friend Gicel whom we’ve followed & unfollowed several times thank to her penchant and passion for flooding our feed with her face! We love you Gicel! Thanks for being such an inspiration.
Social Networking Detox & Our Weekend at Mt. Pulag
Hello! We’re back from a weekend we spent otudoors! It was a long 5-hour drive, 5-hour commute plus a 5-hour trek to our camping site but it was all worth it! 🙂 We rarely had a phone signal during the weekend and we didn’t have a decent internet connection either (Gahh..talk about priorities). I actually
Good Days Versus Bad Days & Spot.PH’s Summer Komikon Feature
Hello Everyone! 🙂 We have a guest writer 😀 My fellow washi tape, calligraphy, watercolor & camera-loving friend Aina Rosales has been giving me tips on how I can possibly improve my writing skills. So, for today, I’ve invited her to share with us her thoughts about this cartoon 😉 —————————— Remember when you’re in
Let’s Play the Instagram Bingo
I know what you’re thinking, “If this is a Bingo card, why are there only 9 frames?” Well, the last time I checked, the Instagram window can only show up to 3 x 3.5 frames so there! 🙂 I must admit I also like putting hashtags 😀 I’m also guilty of taking pictures of clouds, participating
Trying to be Productive with Facebook & Our ANC Shoptalk Guesting
Most of the time I have to check something on Facebook: details of a trip, a friend’s address, what time my friends & I are supposed to meet…et cetera. However, I’ve never been successful in doing nothing else but that. Before I get to what I’m supposed to do, I always end up taking a
Something to Complain About
Life in the 21st century has become conveniently inconvenient and thanks to social networking, not a week passes by without anyone having something to complain about how a “friend” or relative behaves online! The bad news is, there is no middle ground. Posting anything as in ANYthing or even your mere absence will earn you
How I Feel About Facebook Questions
If there’s ever anything constant on Facebook, it’s change! Recently, it just rolled out its new format and now, the status bar attempts to coax our lazy fingers into flooding our friends with itsy bitsy details of our lives. There’s a study somewhere (how credible!) that if you ask questions online, people will tend to
Food Pictures: Taste Versus Presentation
There was a time when people would gather together at the dining table and enjoy everyone’s company with good food. Now, most of the netizens (myself included) have this penchant for capturing their gastronomic adventures. Last night, I wanted to take pictures of my macarons just because they’re just so pretty & yummy. Too bad
Life Without Google: Researching Then & Now
Have you ever imagined what life without Google would have been like? Well, if you lived in the era of nothing but encyclopedias and library cards, then you would know. 😉 Just imagine how people solely relied on snail mail then and how we’re sooooo impatient about e-mails that don’t appear within a minute
Facebook Problems
Have these Facebook problems been annoying you lately? 🙂 Gone are the days when people were able to separate their online life from the real lives. Post a photo on Facebook today and even though it doesn’t receive as much likes as your most liked personal photo, you’ll meet people at family gatherings, events or
The Instagrammer Goes on a Date!
Last Saturday, we were having dinner with some our our friends from the ice. (No, not Antarctica but the ice as in the skating rink you smarty pants!) One of our friends, an Instagrammer (and a certified camwhore), was sitting silently in the corner while we chatted the night away. From time to time, our
