Photobucket, Bandwidth Exceeded
This entry is not intended to humiliate the author of this template. I really love this template and didn’t want to replace it. The purpose of this entry is to share my experience and learn from it.
Two days ago, when I opened my site, I saw the image below… lots of photobucket errors. It seems that all bloggers who use this template had this kind of error. At first, I thought that my blog had been hacked. How come if I didn’t use my photobucket account in this blog?
The problem was… all the images with the free template were replaced by “bandwidth exceeded – Photobucket – Please upgrade your account.”
What I did to resolved the problem was to download all the image files and save it another file host.
- Login to your blogspot account, go to layout, edit HTML
- Click Ctrl F. Since the problem is from photobucket, type the word photobucket.
- The word photobucket from your edit template page will be highlighted.
- Copy the complete url of all links that has the word photobucket one by one.
- Download them and save it to your blogspot or any filehost that you prefer.
- Then, replaced all the photobucket link in your template, make sure that you’ve replaced the correct photobucket link to the new link to avoid further problems.
Voila! My site is normal again.

My Sister Won The Lottery!
Last Thursday, I’ve accompanied my sister to Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office in E. Rodriguez, Quezon City to claim her lottery price of php 23,040. It was the price for getting the 5 digits out of 6 digit combination.
It was my usual blogging time when my sister hurried home from work to look for her lotto ticket, at first I thought she was just kidding. I saw the newspaper and her lottery ticket, its true. She asked me to accompany her and bring my valid IDs to claim the price. We were in the PCSO at about 2pm. Validation cut-off is 4pm and bank closes at 3pm. Validation and check issuance took time, we almost didn’t make it at Landbank.
The bank is inside the PCSO building, ground floor.
Because of my excitement, I’ve forgot to take pictures of the lotto ticket, the validation and the check. How silly of me.:-( Anyway, after claiming the price, the whole family headed to Dampa, Macapagal Avenue for dinner. Of course, my sister’s treat.:-)

People's Park In The Sky
People’s Park in the Sky is located in Mt. Gonzales, Tagaytay City overlooking the whole of Tagaytay and the neighboring provinces. This is used to be called “Palace In The Sky” during the late President Ferdinand Marcos regime. I’ve seen the Taal Volcano in different areas in Tagaytay, no doubt that this is the best place that offers the best view of Taal Volcano.
Thinking for a quick getaway from Manila? Summer is approaching, I can feel the hot weather already in Manila. We think of Tagaytay as an alternative to Baguio because of its weather, it is nearer from Manila and can get there in less travel time. More pictures after the jump.
I haven’t been near the Taal Volcano, looking forward to it soon!
Do You Know Your Saint?
Almost all Roman Catholics believe in angels, little children know them as guardian angels. Guardian angel is based on what day we were born so there are 7 guardian angels. When we were in Tierra De Maria in Tagaytay, where the replica of Our Lady Of Manaog, my bestfriend asked me to go to the rooftop to have some picture taking with the beautiful Taal Lake as our background.
As we stepped on the 2nd floor before proceeding to the “roof top”, the images below caught my attention. The hallway, side by side was full of 6 x 6 inch tiles. Every tile has a date, name of the saint and some information about the saint. The image on top is my youngest son’s saint, Saint Joan Of Arc.
Saint Joan Of Arc – Born: January 6, 1412 at Greux Domremy, Lorraine, France. Died: burned alive on May 30, 1431 at Rouen, France. Beatified: April 11, 1905 by Pope Saint Pius. Canonized: May 16, 1920 by Pope Benedict
