Hello, new visitors!

My Sitemeter counter tells me that my traffic has doubled in the last few weeks for some reason, which means that there are new visitors to this humble blog, so… hello!

I’m surprised at the stats, actually. My hits aren’t really a lot to begin with, but a jump to double the number is quite high for me. I don’t know why the sudden increase in visitors since I don’t really know SEO and I don’t have time to read linx boss reviews. Maybe it’s because lately, I’ve had the luxury of time to actually comment on other people’s blogs?

Anyway, to those who just dropped by, hello and I hope you come back!

Hello, deaguwapa.com!

I finally got my own domain!

And I signed up for external webhosting, powered by WordPress.

It happened so fast, haha! Oh, the things that happen out of boredom. I spent the last few hours figuring WordPress out, importing the entries from my previous blog, and choosing a template.  I’m happy so far. My wallet, not too much.

Anyway, I’m still giddy about this. I feel like… a blogger.

Hello, everyone!

Finally, this blog is up. After months of writing just for myself, I have decided to share the link to friends and family and all.

I’ve been blogging since 2003 for contacts on Blurty, LiveJournal, and Multiply, and I’m just starting to write openly here on Blogspot. I’ll still be crossposting from Multiply, because that’s where my entries actually get read and commented on.

I’m having fun with Blogspot so far, tinkering with the links and gadgets on the right-hand sidebar. Moreso, I’m having fun browsing the blogosphere, I’ve already stumbled upon quite a few online journals that I instantly liked and will continue to follow.

Why Guwapa? Mainly because that’s my email address on Gmail, and it was the default account when I signed up for Blogspot. I hope I live up to my username–it’s a beautiful life, after all, and I hope to share little snippets of this life here on this blog.

See you all around!
