I remember last year when I first started my blogsite. Actually I started out as a nobody in the blogosphere. Learning about this from my wife Kaye (she was the one who influenced me to come up with one, since she had her own created also last year. Visit www.keekaye.com), I began to get interested and started my own. But not yet on the site. I actually disguised myself as a blogger when I began reading on Deejay’s site (who happens to be inactive for a long time!). I carried the name Bonggang Bonggang Bongoloids. I sported the old guy without teeth smiling avatar. Anyhow, for quite a while, I hid from the shadow of Bongoloids, until around November 15 last year, I decided to start my own blog site for good. Using the WordPress platform, there I created my very own site — Ang Aking Munting Bongkito.

I tried coming up with a few blogs from time to time, my first entitled “Ah Ganito Pala ‘Yun.” It was quite okay. Got to establish a few friends (of course, courtesy of Kaye) and made around 8 blogposts since the time I began, well, not bad for a first timer. Then, by February of this year, I decided to move to dot.com, again influenced by my wife and also suggestion of Madame Salbehe. So there. I moved to a new home, a home with my own personal identity. I called it TheGreenFrogCreations.com, which is actually my dream business company.

Today is already November 9. In a few days, my site will already be 1. Not much has changed though, but I guess the success of this site is primarily because of blogger friends like you.  So to celebrate this “momentous” occasion (momentous daw o!), I’ll ask anyone from you to help me dressed my blogosversary post with a fan sign (sorry I just want to ride the bandwagon hehehe).  But I’ll add a little twist. Since my site has a primary image reference which is the bench or bangkito, hope you can add that too to your fan sign as part of the design. However you treat it, it’s up to you.

But wholeheartedly, I thank you my blogger friends for supporting me and reading and commenting to posts for the past year. Hoping to share with you more stories and chitchats on my second year.

Just like what I always say, kitakits na lang ulit sa ating tambayan ha? And don’t forget to bring your fan signs as well! Tenchu, tenchu!!!!

It’s not really just because a lot of our bloggerkadas (including my dear Kaye) have gone dotcom that I got to join the bandwagon. Well, honestly, it’s nice to have something you can call your own. This is why I moved from my bongkito wordpress tambayan to a more contemporary, stylish and up-to-date location and relaxing area. Thus, I’ve recreated, refurbished and rejuvenated “Ang Aking Munting BONGKITO” with a more refreshing look, now located at thegreenfrogcreations.com.

First of all, welcome to my new humble abode. I actually thought a lot before moving in to this new place. A lot different from my last place. More homey, more indoor but minimalist in treatment, and I guess, to put it better, more inviting for anyone to drop by.But i guess, it suits me and also my personality. Also, I’ve considered a lot in going dotcom since it already identifies me as a person. Of course, with the new look I still want to keep the old concept . Mainly because the bangkito (bench) is where my blogging started. Just made a little overhaul and wala, a new home at last!

But most of all, this change is because of all of you blogger friends whom I’ve become so fond of exchanging banter and all. And I thank Kaye for this because nakilala ko kayo and nae-enjoy ko ang inyong pagbisita, moreso for giving me and Kaye the chance to know you in return, kahit through the blogosphere lang.

So for you guys, thanks for staying with me on my old wooden bench. And as I welcome you here, just feel free to stay, relax and share stories again with me. Because this new home is also because of you so your stay here will always be worthwhile.

Thanks to salbehe for the help in finding me a new home to stay. Iba ang convincing power mo girl!

Thanks to my Kaye for keeping up with me and for making every blogging experience better as always. Sa totoo lang, si Kaye din ang checker ko in terms of grammar and structure. Tiwala kasi ako sa kanya kasi mas gamay nya magsulat kesa sa ‘kin.

And lastly, to the Lord for giving me such great bloggerfriends. Hopefully next time matuloy na ang EB na inaasam ng lahat. So finally we could now actually share stories and laugh and even exchange chichirs on a personal level.

Again, to all you guys, welcome home!!!
