Nothing much. Yeah, I don’t really use it a great deal except for the sidebar where I put some gadgets for easy access – local weather, calendar, mini media player and CPU/RAM meter which displays my system resources.
Here’s how it looks like:
A representation of nature on my screen sorts of neutralizes the technological experience working on a computer brings.
This is actually a meme from Aileen of Life's Simple Pleasures. Now I’m tagging Snglguy, Wil, Cai, Lazarus and Rey to put up a screenshot of their desktop too! Here are the instructions to be followed:
[TAG STARTS HERE]
My Desktop Free View Instruction:
A. Upon receiving this tag, immediately perform a screen capture of your desktop. It is best that no icons be deleted before the screen capture so as to add to the element of fun.
You can do a screen capture by:
[1] Going to your desktop and pressing the Print Scrn key (located on the right side of the F12 key).
[2] Open a graphics program (like Picture Manager, Paint, or Photoshop) and do a Paste (CTRL + V).
[3] If you wish, you can “edit” the image, before saving it.
For MAC users: Press [ Apple] [ Ctrl ] [ Shift ] and [ 3 ]
B. Post the picture in your blog. You can also give a short explanation on the look of your desktop just below it if you want. You can explain why you preferred such look or why is it full of icons. Things like that.
C. Tag five of your friends and ask them to give you a Free View of their desktop as well.
Some Pinoy jokes are being circulated among emails about students writing letters to their poor parents in the provinces asking for money for their supposedly school expenses but were actually just wasting it on unnecessary whims. The clueless parents had to sell their carabaos, land and other properties just to send money for their children’s ‘school project expenses’. While stories like these may seem amusing, they subtly indicate a sad fact that providing education for your children entails a lot of sacrifices particularly with finances. Some students are responsible enough to apply for scholarships, grants, enroll as working students or get into part time jobs to help fund their tuition and school related expenses. Some even had to resort to private student loans to keep up with the expenses.

Ideas are powerful. A train of thought can make or break, build or destroy. The choice is ours. Our ideas become our future. I believe that life’s meaningful lessons are best learned when shared with others.
