Analytics

Seems I missed or did I really miss an important event today because I was thinking of something or someone else? I was not able to watch the TV nor even had a glimpse of the show because it was all cartoons. Maybe I did. Maybe I didn’t.

Anyway, I was able to accomplish a part of what I really wanted to do for a long time. Some of my websites do not have analytics yet. Though I know traffic is not that great, analytics helps me keep track whether I am getting visitors or none at all, especially for the websites that I have not promoted. I wonder how some people find my website, and post comments when I only registered and set it up a few hours ago.

If you are wondering what is this analytics that I am talking about, this is the Google Analytics. According to Google, “Google Analytics is the enterprise-class web analytics solution that gives you rich insights into your website traffic and marketing effectiveness. Powerful, flexible and easy-to-use features now let you see and analyze your traffic data in an entirely new way.”

I am glad for what I accomplished today. There’s too much to be done, many decisions to make, little time to do everything.

Free MRT 3 Rides for Seafarers Passenger Today, June 25

The Metro Rail Transit (MRT) 3 is offering free rides to seafarer-passengers today, June 25, Seafarers’ Day. Take note that these free rides are only available from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

Requirement to avail of the free ride is the presentation of valid seaman’s book at the MRT station’s service gate, log-in your name at the security guard’s desk and will be subjected to the usual baggage inspection.

Sorry guys but the Manila LRT Yellow Line is not included though I know most of you frequent the area near U.N. Avenue.

I wonder why it’s only available for the MRT3 line. Considering the heavy rain and flooding yesterday, hope there will be seafarers that can benefit from this today.

Just Blogging

Well, it is raining. I still have some Korean DVDs but I feel like I want to write. I want to write and keep on writing but what to write is a  big question. There’s too much to write about that I can’t seem to start on anything.

So, for a start, how about this?

Some readers may be able to relate to this and it is an accepted fact that even if a writer is one of the best writers in the world, there comes a time when words are just to elusive. All he/she can do is stare on the monitor or at the paper while holding a writing pen. As I am not a professional writer, just someone who finds some time to blog once in a while, such elusiveness happens.

Anyway, if you are a blogger or a writer and you want to collaborate with me on certain projects of mine (of which we can discuss later), feel free to leave a comment. We might be able to agree on something that will be beneficial to both of us.

A Glimpse of Cebu

Currently at Mactan International Airport waiting for boarding time after hours of waiting doing nothing because of the inability to rebook due to booking charges (talking about being frugal) and the inability to go out because of the continuous rainshower..

Cebu is my third destination in a series of travels that hopefully will all materialize. Being here since Tuesday, trying to finish the work including the paper works (reports) on time, is quite exhausting. Visiting the different facilities – checking the vicinity, equipment, tools and instruments, documents, building including the CR, other things in the checklist -, then doing all the paper works hoping I/we did not miss anything that might be important are all part of the routine.

What’s makes this visit to Cebu different from my previous visits?

It’s our visit to Mt. Majic facility located at Mt. Luay, Cebu. From the airport, it takes about 1.5 to 2 hours. Aside from doing our usual routines, we’re hoping to see the much-talked foggy ascent/descent to/from the top or maybe enjoy a closer interaction with the clouds but the weather cooperated with us and stayed as clear as ever.   Frustrating …

But not as much.  The trip alone is already an experience for without a mission, I might not have gone up or traveled somewhere near it. Looking forward to my next travel, at work and/or on leisure.

At Night

I’ve been living in the city for more than a decade now. Although I love the quietness in the province, I prefer the fast life in the city.  After a long day of wrenching with sentence construction, fields, forms and codes, I needed a fresh air. Well, not really as fresh as the air in the countryside.

As I was lying on the swing located at the roof of our house, I noticed that, aside from the moon that shines brightly, there is only one visible star tonight. But, they’re just too far away from each other that my camera lens can’t even capture them both. Hm, should I wish for a better camera?

But it’s not the camera that bothers me. If the moon and the star could only speak, would they wish to be closer and keep each other’s company through the night as they look down on the city lights? Or are they happy that they each have their own space on the vast sky, contented, far away from one another?

I wonder how they really feel. Don’t you?

Or do they feel anything at all?
