    It is really unfair.  If you read what I wrote about reincarnation, that I made up myself… I think they don’t want to pay me.

    acelawrites wrote a new post, Avoid Eating Too Much During Fiestas/Celebrations 7 years, 6 months ago

    In the Philippines, there are so many celebrations like fiestas or feasts of Patron Saints. Many of them are observed during the dry season months of May and June when children/students are on vacation from […]

    • We cannot avoid to eat much during celebration hehehehe.It is always expected weight gain if there is no exercise to follow.At home, every day we do some steps exercise.;

      By the way, I opened another blog with gumamela flower and acelawrute hahahaha nother thieft.lols.

      • It is the culture of Filipinos to offer so much food during fiestas; quite lavish. And they will feel sorry if you will not eat in their house! So what we do is just eat a bit, then if they are my siblings, I just tell them I will take home that food! ha ha ha! so I will not cook the following day!

        The person who used my favorite gumamela flower is Zasa! I don’t know. Now I will always use that for my posts here because if I use my other photos, anybody can just “steal” it!

    • Well of course we shouldn’t eat too much food but for me fiestas is an exception. But there will be times when you really can’t control your eating and end up having stomach ache or LBM (hahaha). In the end, just eat what you can afford to eat.

      • Thanks, @Christian! It is true, sometimes we are too happy to bond with friends and relatives so we tend to overeat and forget about the planned dieting! Anyway, just do more exercises, and have a strict diet onwards!

    • May is the month for fiestas indeed. And when it is fiesta , there really are lots of foods.

      On the eve of the fiesta, you will hear pigs being slaughtered for the fiesta food preparation. And when it’s fiesta eve, for sure there is “dinuguan”, since the pig has been slaughtered and its blood should be made of use.

      Anyway, here in fiestas, the foods are mostly of meats porks and chicken and those delicious desserts.

      But I noticed that in your post you mentioned of crabs and shrimps prepared as one of those fiesta foods. Oh, I love those than pork.

      Maybe next time you should invite me if the foods are crabs and shrimps. But oops, of course it should be eaten in moderation, lest I forget. he he he

    I can confirm from my end. No payment yet. I guess we have to wait one more week and then better wrap up on the site. I mean I tried to have patience but it seems my last 2 months payout and others are not looking to be getting paid. I think we have to wait till we confirm with all the active users not getting paid. If that is what remains then we…[Read more]

    I was in the supermarket this morning.  They had just opened this new store and I, a long time customer came to visit.

    I happened to be talking to the owner about lots of topics, as I was shopping.  I passed a […]

    • I have no problem with genetically modified products like the agricultural crops. I believe the genes of the crops were altered just to become disease resistant and can grow to the desired size and weight it should be. I don’t believe it can affect our body because I believe the scientist won’t allow this to market if it does harm to our health.

      But I cannot blame those people who are afraid of consuming genetically modified foods.

      • I don’t trust any of this. Think of ‘healthy’ hydrogenated vegetable oil, virtually forced down our throats

    • I am afraid of eating genetically-modified foods, too! It is better safe than sorry; so I prefer organically-grown or naturally-grown fruits and vegetables. I also grow some of my vegetables in our small garden. It is always nice to harvest from your own plants.

      • When I had land I did the same thing. Grow my own, and know what was used on them… I’m not comfortable with G.M.

    • Organic and naturally grown foods are better but may be in some cases GM crops if properly checked and supervised without any wrongful method, could be useful for farmers as well as end consumers.

    No.  It is not that X plagiarised items which is why… it is that the false charges of Plag. cause good writers not to write good.

    Put it like this; suppose you wanted to discuss a current topic.  You would need to define it, you would quote your sources, and you might even supply quotes which would confirm the validity of your item.

    @Cely, good thing she apologized to me for using my photos. She said she will not do it anymore! At least she admitted her mistake. Maybe she thought that every photo from the Media Library can be used by everybody. So the solution is to remove that feature here.

    Thanks @Cely, next time I’ll have it (hopefully)! We always say “hopefully” because we are not so sure 100 percent if we will get payments or not! And that negative experience with Bubblews affected that view so much!

    It was such a bad experience! It taught us not to be too trusting!

    I wrote an item.  LB says I plaged.   They gave me a link of an item I’d never seen that has nothing connected to what I wrote.

    Wonder if it is one of those scams to not pay?

    Bubblews left a bad taste in almost everybody’s mouth.  So bad that people united to try to sue them.  Tsu social network was also a disappointment.  Many of these sites are very disappointing.  It’s the reason you don’t just devote all your time to one of them.  Because you never know when any of them will shut down.

Because there seems to be no way to confirm which one are getting paid and which one didn’t get paid. So that’s another thing we have to look forward towards as well.

    Yes I can understand. I think admins need to pay attention and get rid of the copy pasters. And they have to get rid of the users who are stealing images and the content.
