To celebrate my 1000th tweet

This post is for the celebration for a mark in my twitter history,  my 1000th post. Well the best way to celebrate it is to remember my journey in Twitter.

When did I start on Twitter?
I started tweeting on January 5, 2009. And like any other hobbies, I am on and off on tweeting that's why I just reached my 1000th post after 16 months.

Why did I decided to create a Twitter account?
Out of curiosity. And after I created, I didn't like it at first so I started using Plurk, but then after one month of using Plurk, I didn't like it. Compare to Twitter, Plurk is nowhere near Twitter's user friendliness. Twitter's easy and simple. Plurk your updates is plotted on a timeline which I don't like. And also, it seems like it's easy to connect to the world with Twitter, with Plurk it seems like your stuck with your friends with regards to sharing tweets.  Since then, I loved Twitter.

What do you like about Twitter?
I've learned so many things in Twitter, from quotes to facts to everything under the sun. I have made few laughs and WOWs to things that people tweet. I also connect with few stars and singers and know more about them. I have so much fun with twitter, and now I tweet a lot everyday.

That's all! I wish you join Twitter and Follow ME :) @kathieyakie. Let's tweet tweet together!

Cutest earphones ever

My Apple earphones the one that comes with my iPhone, is nearing death. Well the earbuds are alright but the control is not working anymore and I don't know if the MIC does also after almost 6 months of usage. Yup! no earphones have been with me for a year, I'm just not careful with my earphones. Earlier, I bought new one, not because I'm looking for it, but it found me! LOL, well my friend did. Super cute Hello Kitty earphones, as you all know I love Hello Kitty and it's pink!! It is also available in white but I like the pink one. Now she kicked my Apple earphones straight to retirement. LOL. But, there's something missing in this earphone, MIC. But who cares? I can remove my earphones and answer my phone, hassle? Yeah. But it's still Hello Kitty so I don't mind, maybe in the future I will, but not today.

The Chemistry of Geek Running

I love Running, especially in the morning. Well, I haven't tried running in the afternoon or in the night time well just because the place where I run is only open until 6 pm. And I always run with an empty stomach, since I'm having a hard time running with I drink/ate something, I feel pain in my stomach.

Why I love running? Because of the feeling when the air touches my face constantly. The carefree feeling. The freedom. Do I need to say more?

But, every love there's a weak spot. For me, my weak spot is waking up in the morning. It's hard for me to wake up especially when I slept late the previous night. But, after waking up and I washed my face, I am very good to go. 

Every hobby, there are essentials.  My essentials, are the basic + advanced essentials. What do I mean? Well the basic are:

1. Running shoes : this is the basic, well make sure that the shoes are comfortable and fits perfectly because it is important that you run comfortably. 
2. Towel
3. Water Jug - well, I don't always bring water since I'm kind of lazy to bring my own water, but I think it's essential.

I think that's the basic essentials, but since I'm the geek runner I have my own list of essentials that is added to the basic:

1. This is in reference to the running shoes:  my shoes are Nike+. Why? Because the Nike+ shoes have a built-in pocket where you put the Nike+ Sensor.
2. The Nike+ Sensor, since my iPhone already recognizes the sensor, I don't need the dongle that came along with the kit. This sensor gives feedback and tracks all your runs. Like the kilometer/miles,  time, pace and calories burned. So when you plug your iPhone/ Ipod it automatically sends the data to Nike.com
3. Ofcourse my iPhone. Since it is needed for the sensor to work. And also, I want to run with my music. I never run without music.

That's how I run, maybe you can share how you run to me email me at meltingsorbetes@yahoo.com
