Gelene - You Are Inspirational

It's a Monday! Well, in the strictest sense, it is already. Just checked the clock and saw it's 1:20 am. For most people Monday starts when they wake up, and since I don't sleep during the day changes, I get to post first. Yay! Or maybe I'm just making up for my 5-minute late post last week. Haha. Either way, here's my entry for this week's You Are Inspirational meme, started by Chris over at Inspirational Thoughts, fueled by Pehpot's fab idea of a bi-weekly (?) blog review. And just in case you haven't noticed, Pehpot's got a brand new layout. No thanks to me, though. She did it by herself. VERY proud of her.

This week's theme is about the VERY first blog on your list. This cost me 70% of my brainpower to remember who the heck that is. I have selective amnesia, in case you don't know. But this is one chick I'd never forget. After all, she was one of the reasons why I started blogging in the first place. After months of prodding, I finally gave in to her suggestion that I should start a blog. I was blinded (LOL) by how much she is earning through paid posts, and that was when I decided to give blogging a try. The rest, as they say, is history. Now who am I talking about? Meet former officemate and present friend (online/offline), Gelene of Honie's Confession.



Naturally, she was the first one on my blog list since she was the only person from the blogosphere then that I know, so it was more of a lack of choice than a voluntary decision. LOL. JK. She would've made first on my list anyway because of her unbelievable time management skills. Juggling a full-time work, blogging (3 sites and counting! no wonder she needs contact lenses!), social networking, sidelines (TONS OF!) and being a dear to her boyfriend of eight (*gasp*) years will be hard to deal with for most of us. But not Gelene. She carries on with these activities on a daily basis as if it was the most natural thing in the world to be barraged with such demanding routines.

So here's to you Gelene, and congratulations because your first domain's blogversary is on July 18 already! Yay! And here's to a friendship that goes beyond the walls of our work relationship.
