Blog Tools

I am not free anymore! I wanted to categorize my blogs ever since the world began but I didn’t even attempt to try. I need to dedicate topics that would sort of limit myself when it comes to the scope of my writings.

Before, I just felt like skipping showbiz blogs but I say, "what a hypocrite am I?" I know I love reading showbiz chikkas be it local or from Hollywood. I am committed though to cutting off gossips and the unnecessaries from my life hence the categorization. I am still of course blogging about silly things but at least, it should fall into something.

I don’t mean to blog daily! Hello hardship! But at least, I intend to have control on my keyboard like for example, today's Wednesday and I thought of writing about fashion – oh well I am sorry because it's Twitter Wednesday, I should derive my post from Twitter – but I can of course steal my way in, and find a Twitter source linking to the fashion topic I desire. So the idea is, I cannot blog just because… it has to be within the assigned category… if I feel like writing and it doesn’t suit the day, i.e. Gastro Saturday and I want to blog about a dress or something, nope, I don’t think so, save some room for later and bear the itch!

So here are the general topics I've selected and their scope:
  • Gastronomic Saturday (Anything edible that you wanted to review, diss', praise, places to recommend, photos of "dine-ins and take outs")
  • Lord's Day Sunday (Posts about God and the things He's done for us. A testimony of the past day/week/month/year, songs, movies related to God)
  • Manic Monday (Harebrained and crazy ideas, rants, experiences)
  • Fab Tuesday (Fashion, beauty, wellness, things related to being sexy and fabulous)
  • Twitter Wednesday (Something like the you tweet, I blog posts that I've done in the past. Post derived from Twitter)
  • Recap Thursday (Recap of recent events. Recent movie seen, song heard, book read, food eaten, etc. This serves as a review tool as well)
  • Freedom Friday (Anything! This is the day when I can post anything I've been longing to post in the last week but couldn’t because it didn’t fall into a category! This is my time to shine!)
 
 
and of course I forgot to write a closing... lol... I guess I was just tired.... (palusot?)

4 blurbs:

  1. Seems like a tough challenge. I wonder how long will you last with that setup. :-)

  2. "I don't mean to blog daily! Hello hardship!" Sobrang natawa ako dito kasi meron akong Project 365 sa http://patokfilipino.wordpress.com. Mahirap pala i-sustain! Hehe!

    I've also considered categorizing my blog like your pattern above but I'm finding it very difficult as I feel I'm supposed to write what I feel strongly about at that particular moment.

    That writing format requires a lot of discipline. But if Blogspot has a "Schedule Post" feature, (Wordpress has it, maybe it goes by another name but I haven't tried it yet) I believe it will work your intended purpose.

    And about your passion for showbiz chikkas, well, may God give you the grace and wisdom to write about it from an "enlightened perspective." Go shine for JESUS, sis! :)

    Cheers,

  4. @adrian: true! super hirap magkeep ng 365 project kasi tlgng we do not have all the time in the world to write sensible things daily :D I mean, as shallow as 30day song project, di ko pa mahabol ng timely... siguro when things become sort of "mandatory" dun tayo nagkakaglitch into doing it... hehe.. HUMANS!! (LOL)

    Thanks a lot!!!
