God's Planned Generation

This is it. I thank God for giving me a chance to be a part of the Leadership Camp held here in our barrio. I know this is the way God has planned my life, to serve Him, and I know, this is an answer to my prayer. It was amazing, and I will continue to do this ministry. Big or small things, they are all for the glory of God.

What the word MEME means (Alam mo ba talaga?)

First of all, we should settle first on how we really pronounce "meme" because even I myself made a mistake when I pronounced this word at first and for several times. I asked my classmate, and he told me that it is not pronounced as \mi-mi\, like when you're reading the word "me" twice, or even \meh-meh\, like what a goat sounds like.

All right, don't be surprised because according to Merriam-Webster.com, "meme" is actually pronounced as \ˈmēm\! It rhymes with cream, dream, scream, team or what have you. So, share this to your friend to stop the mispronunciation of this word. Oras na para barahin ang mga nagsasabi ng meh-meh. Wahahaha!

Game! How far is your knowing about this? (please check the grammar) It's not only about these meme faces which got viral over the Internet!

Dictionary.reference.com defines a meme as an idea or element of social behavior passed on through generations in a culture especially by imitation.

From the word meme, here come another term, the "Internet meme". It is an idea that is propagated through the World Wide Web. I may be a hyperlink, video, picture, website, hashtag, or just a word or phrase, such as intentionally misspelling the word "more" as "moar" or "the" as "teh". It may spread from person to person via social networking, blogs, direct emails, news sources, or other web-based services. An Internet meme may stay the same or may evolve over time, by chance or through commentary, imitations, parody, or by incorporating news accounts about itself. The above definition is according to Wikipedia. Actually, Rebecca Black's Friday is an example of this.  >>Click this link to see the Best Memes of 2011.
