Google Adsense Payment Received!

July 22, 2024. My Google Adsense account reached the $100 threshold so I got an electronic deposit to my bank account from Google. Thank you, thank you, thank you for visiting the site.

This was the second Google Adsense Payment that I have received. This second payment took three years I think to reach the $100 threshold -- much faster than the first payment.

If you guys visit the site everyday, make comments, and even share to your Facebook/Twitter account so that I reach the $100 threshold yearly, monthly, or daily (?!) -- I won't get mad at ya!

Or if you blog here (in addition to OR instead of Facebook)... we'll be gazillionaires! 💰💰💰

EDUCATION • CALIFORNIA • MARCH 2026 UC Davis Received 122,271 Applications for Fall 2026 — What Filipino-American Students Need to Know Before you chase the admit rate, understand the community waiting for you. At UC Davis, Filipino identity isn't an extracurricular — it is an infrastructure, a history, and a home. There is a version of the UC Davis conversation that Filipino-American families have been having for years — the one about admit rates, GPA thresholds, and whether it's a "safety" or a "target." That conversation matters, and we will get to those numbers. But there is a deeper reason Fil-Am students ha...

There are words in every language that carry more weight than their syllables suggest. In English, we have "freedom." In Japanese, ikigai . In ...
