Hey whats up guys?
I hope you are all doing fine in-game and IRL. If you know what I mean haha!
I just wanted to give you guys a quick update on a couple of things I have been working on for past few weeks!
New Site Design
How do you like the new layout? I’ve recently bought a premium theme just to make the website look a little less blog-like and I really like the look and feel so far. Our buddies at StudioPress.com had a lot of choices to choose from which made it a lot easier front end wise. If you are into web design or even wanting to start a blog, definitely check them out! Their selection is really good!
I’ve been doing some back-end stuff and for sometimes I get an error page when I click a link. It doesn’t really bother me but let me know if you guys experience it as well.
Site Content
If you’ve noticed I’ve been creating posts regarding Gaming Content and Around the Web. I’m trying to get into a habit of writing everyday since I feel that I’m a little rusty. How do you like it so far? I’ll be adding a Games Guide section once I write a certain amount of guides. Game guides will be about Pokémon GO, Dota 2 and the much requested Ragnarok Online guides! I hear your requests, I’m just trying to allocate time to actually play the game again. I don’t want to give you incomplete or outdated information. Watch out for that!
If you are interested in writing guides for the site let me know.
I am also working on a course on Content Creation for creator’s like myself. This basically includes branding, social media & marketing and website creation. This will include an e-book and maybe some videos too! I’ll be posting a opt-in form in the future for people interested. People that sign up will get FREE tidbits of the final product!
Oh and yes! I will be doing a blog like this every Monday just to update and check in with you guys on the site!
Twitch
I’m still trying to figure out a schedule for streaming. Since most of the time I have right now goes to site design and writing. I also working on a family member’s site so finding time is a little hard right now. I won’t be streaming much but if I do follow me on Twitter @ggdeeofficial or just wait for me to go live on this site.
I’d love a follow as well! It can be lonely on stream when I do go live! You can do so by going to my Twitch below.
Youtube
It will be Pokémon GO content for now since that is all the hype nowadays. It’s real easy to edit too. Expect 1-2 videos every week!
Real Life
A lot is happening in real-life right now. I’m just fighting to get through it. If you read my About Dee page you probably already know that I just left my job recently to pursue this full-time. I am a little rattled due to not having the job security of a full-time job. Thankfully I have a loving and supportive wife, I would be a mess without her.
I am scared though, that good kind of being scared I think. I feel that there’s a ticking time bomb and I have to hustle so hard to make this content creation work. I’m reviving my design skills, polishing my writing skills and building back what I left years ago. I’ve never been this motivated in my life!
I guess I always find a low-stress part-time job like retail if things get tough.

So yea, I gained weight! I’m was currently 168 lbs and for what weightchart.com says I’m “overweight”!*bitch* lol
I haven’t really paid any attention to my weight ever since I was always healthy in the Philippines but due to moving to the United States and it’s In-n-out’s, Mc Donalds and huge portion Chinese fast food it looks like it got the best of me. I don’t feel anything though. It’s just this double chin my wife keeps teasing me about!
So that’s where Pokémon GO came in. For the past month I have been going on walks with my IPAD mini 2 catching and hatching Pokémon. Walking around with a IPAD, mind you can be a funny picture to paint but I don’t mind as long as I am hatching at least a 5 km egg each run. I’ve even spent a day in San Francisco just catching Pokémon. Here is proof!
I think I walked around 12 mi or 20 km total! That’s back and forth from Cupid’s Span (charmander nest) to Fort Mason(squirtle nest). My feet and legs were dead the next few days. The things gamer’s do for games…
I’d do more Pokémon walks in my area if it wasn’t to ghetto. Only safe spots I can get to with 3-4 Pokéstops is a nearby park/swimming pool which I frequent and a park you need to pay to get into($4).
Since then I’ve lost 4 pounds. Yay! Pokémon GO.

I’ll actually be going home to the Philippines in October. My sister is getting married to her long time boyfriend. Congrats you guys!
More importantly(*jokes*) I’m excited about finally being able to eat at Mang Inasal more than anywhere else. I just love their marinated chicken and soup. The chicken oil on top of the rice is just an added bonus. I miss the -silog meals and Batangas’ Lomi! Jesus! I’m salivating right now. SPONSOR ME PLS!
Excited to catch Farfetch’d too, Asia’s Pokémon GO region Pokémon and finally chill at Greenbelt or Glorietta. I used to frequent these places a lot back then.
I’m also excited to meet new members to the family. Some of the names may be familiar. my Dad named them, go figure. They are “Azkals” still cute though!
Uh… that’s pretty much it for now! See you next week! Follow/Subscribe!
