Who Am I?

Who am I?

My name is Edgar Vincent Bautista. My parents and childhood friends call me Vincent but my present friends and acquaintances know me as Edgar. But I think I'd rather be called Vincent as both my brother and father also have an Edgar in their first name.

I'm 21 years old, single (and available, Lol), a Filipino-Canadian, and I am a student nurse. Well I was in third year college taking up Bachelor of Science in Nursing when I was back in the Philippines but now I'm just chilling while I wait to start my studies this Winter Term at Grant MacEwan as a 1st Year Nursing Student, AGAIN!

The Blogger

As you may have guessed, the Internet is my backyard and I simply love blogging. It is through blogging that I find a release from my day to day stress and it's a way to express myself.

I have been a blogger since August 8, 2004 and I have never stopped. My first post was at my first blog, Grim Angel. I also have a second blog, My Nurses Notes. I had already abandoned both blogs because having many blogs is difficult to maintain and update frequently... what can I say? I'm one lazy person.


A Dreamer

I have a lot of dreams and I want to be more than who I am today so I don't allow anyone to tell me that I can't do anything because no one has the right to trample on my dreams (or anyone else's dream for that matter).

I am an introvert and generally kind and well mannered but if anyone crosses the line and tries to degrade my humanity, I will not think twice and fight back.

If you want to know more about me please visit my profiles at the left panel.

Please feel free to look around. Thanks for coming and you're very welcome to come back ^_^

Happiness

I really love the metaphor used in this little quote and I somehow agree. Sure you must not dedicate all your time and effort in finding happiness because you will just be too tired in your pursuit. And sometimes what we think is happiness is something that is just an illusion or worst something wrong for us.

But I applaud those shiny sunshine people who I get to meet every once in a while because their happy personalities tend to be infectious in a good way. I love how they get to appreciate life and how they find happiness in simple things like the blooming of the spring flowers or a rainbow after the rainstorm.

Although everything that I have planned went all wrong I still think that I will still be able to be happy somehow. Because happiness is after all a state of mind. And we as human beings are capable of altering our state of minds making things better than they really are.

You Just Got to Love Sales!

Don't tell anyone but I'm a shop-a-holic! So you may call this a confession but I'm actually proud of it rather than ashamed because I'm not the kind of person that exceeds my credit card limit every month because I shop too much. I'm actually more thrifty and a very wise shopper. So although I'm a frequent online shopper I always make sure that my purchases are well worth the money even if they tend to be very pricey. I always read reviews of a certain product before I finally decide to buy something plus I always use instant cash off discount coupons or free shipping coupons from bestonlinecoupons.com.

In fact I've saved around $200 when I bought my beloved Dell Studio XPS 13 by using Dell Coupon codes! My brand new laptop is one of my very major purchases online and I never regret spending over $1000 because I've saved so much more by using the coupins from bestonlinecoupons.com.

But I'm not the only one who uses online coupons. The old lady next door happens to be as smart as me as she recently told me that she saves tons of money on Petsmart.com free shipping coupon. She has several pet cats (I don't know why this is a trend with old ladies living alone) and she rarely goes out her home because she's a bit old and she uses a wheelchair so she just buys stuff online.

There are so many hot deals and so many great savings right now in their Hot Online Coupons section and I must say that I am really tempted to go shopping right now but I think I have to pass online shopping right now. Besides, I'm sure that there will still be better deals and coupons to come.

Manny Pacquiao Won Again?!

Well honestly? I'm not surprised that Manny Pacquiao won his recent fight with Ricky Hatton. I had a gut feeling that he will win.

I've heard that Manny Pacquiao was ridiculed by the crowd because his opponent was massive as compared to him but Manny proved them wrong by ending the fight with his signature Knock Out!

So even if Manny speaks English badly or whatever negative criticism he has, his fists do the talking.

So maybe this win and I'm sure for a fact that the future wins from Pacquiao will bring more glory to the Filipino people and he is someone we can all be proud to call a Filipino.
