Big thanks to our Entrecard Droppaholics ! :lol: You’ve made our day!

Pacquiao vs. Cotto

Wow. It’s been a really long time since I posted an entry on this blog. I had been busy with work and it’s been a really tough week. I know this may be a little too late but I really liked to blog about Manny Pacquiao and Cotto’s fight last Nov. 15. Though, I’m not really a big fan of Pacquiao but I found myself watching the event, perhaps just like thousands of Filipino and non-Filipino folks anticipating the fight.I guess, most of the time I was curious whether Pacquiao would win or lose to his opponent, Cotto. I’ve heard a lot of comments about him losing to Cotto because he’d been too busy being the celebrity, not that I blame him.

The fight was entertaining and I was happy to know that Pacquiao won, after all, I am Filipino. Now, I’m wondering who can really defeat this guy? It seems he’s stronger than his opponents despite his height. Well, I just hope he won’t end up like other famous boxers who became thick headed and lost everything they had and owned because they forgot who they were and where they came from. Anyways, Pacquiao’s victory meant a great deal to our country since he proven once more that Filipinos are not to be underestimated nor belittled.

In my previous post, I told you I’m trying to learn Photoshop CS4 so I made this sort of a collage of Manny Pacquiao just to apply some of the tricks that I learned with the tutorials I practiced.

Creating Vector Portraits with Photoshop CS4

You’d never guess how I spent most of my time last weekend… :roll: Alright, I was busy learning Adobe Photoshop CS4! :lol: It’s always been my interest to work  with graphics and photo editing; however, I just don’t have enough time to learn everything at once so I try to learn my way through its complexities step by step. Instead of taking a crash course about Photoshop, I searched online for useful tutorials and tricks. Self-paced learning I think is also better for me considering the fact that I still have to go to work for 9 hours and attend to my son’s needs after work. After I manage to perfect some tutorials I hope I can create graphics and images and post them on our blog sites. Anyways thanks to the site www.techpp.com, I discovered some complicated yet beautiful vector tutorials. Feel free to try these tutorials yourself. :wink:

When to Know if A Guy Really Likes You

Sometimes it annoys me when someone I know goes gaga over some guy who obviously doesn’t have the hots for her. :roll: She has a tendency to report every single moment she has with this guy and it’s just too much to bear. I don’t really mind if she talks about her crush or what not but does she really have to cascade in detail her one-sided romance to everyone even though no one’s asking? :-x For instance, she blabs about the guy asking her a “work-related” question or if she sees him standing waiting for the elevator. :-? I know this sounds really cruel but sometimes we just have to face reality and accept that the truth does hurt at times if the person we’re attracted to doesn’t feel the same way.

I took the liberty of searching some tips online that would help any girl in this situation. By the way, these are helpful tips for guys who turn out to be unpredictable.

1. Eye Contact

If a guy looks away every time you have eye contact doesn’t really mean he’s not interested. This can also mean that perhaps he’s just shy. If a guy looks at you longer and smiles then obviously there’s hope. We can’t really predict whether a guy is already attracted to you just by judging the way he looks at you, so you may have to help him up a bit by replying with a bright smile. If he really likes you then, of course, he’ll definitely smile back but if he doesn’t, then you may have to find another guy to focus your attention on.

2. Observe his body language

Some guys are just too predictable it wouldn’t take someone smart to know if he’s interested. Often times they sit or stand closer to you and some are confident enough to look at you a lot. If a guy slouches when he’s near you or if he points his shoulders and pelvis towards you, then definitely this guy may be into you.

3. Listen to what he’s saying

Sometimes guys talk about themselves just to prove something to you. This usually happens if he thinks you like another guy. Some guys also talk about something they know you like, such as the type of music genre you like just to impress you. If you’re lucky, he might invite to check out a concert or movie in town if he knows you share the same interests.

4. Be aware of touching

It just makes it a whole lot easier if a guy touches your arm or hand whenever he laughs or if he occasionally hugs you when he’s happy about something. But just be careful because some guys are expert players and might just go to far or might be doing the same thing to other women.

5. Observe if he treats you differently from other women

Does he look excited whenever your there or converse with you more than with your peers? These seem like good signs; however, some guys also flirt with other women to get your attention or to see how you would react. :lol:

6. Check for signs of nervousness

Some guys do fidget or get all sweaty whenever your around, that is, if he really likes you. If you also notice his nervous laughter when you say something humorous then this is also a good sign.

7. Notice his friends behavior

Sometimes you’d know if a guy likes when his friends tease him every time they see you. There might be times they might even ask you directly if you like him. It also helps if you study their reaction – do they smile, turn to him or smirk in a way that tells you they know something you don’t.

8. Don’t ignore him

Not all guys have the patience to keep wooing you so you still have to show signs that you’re interested too. Perhaps give him your prettiest smile once you see him in the hallway. :wink:
