Update: To all other people who made something significant that I failed to mention on the list, please know that I remember you. You don’t have to be on the list to know that you’re special to me especially when you’re a friend. The numbering system below represents the level of influence or significance of the people in my 2009 life. Finally, I want to make it clear that this was not a competition. I came up with the list personally after assessing what happened to me this year.
This post is one of my year-ender posts for 2009. This is about the top ten people outside my direct biological family that brought happiness, helped me, or significantly influenced or contributed changes to the perspectives and ways of my life as a dignified human individual. It was difficult to come up with this list because there were many good people whom my life engaged with this year, but the people below are the creams of the crop and the roses among thorns.

I was recently interviewed and featured by the people behind B10WH.com because of my tech news show, Tech Conclave. B10WH.com is a web hosting news, reviews, and directory website that features a plethora of web hosting related topics and exclusive interviews of some known web hosting executives across Europe. B10WH indicated that it was their first time to interview someone different and someone very young. I’m flattered!

Update: HP has already released the list of winners.
You can watch the Tech Conclave video or read the article here.
You know in the past two weeks I’ve drawn my focus to campaigning for my video entry for HP You on You contest in YouTube. I really want to win because the prizes can improve my life, the lives of people directly attached to me online or offline, and my show, Tech Conclave.
Last night, I got a big surprise from my online friend named Bryce whom I met through a podcast and owns a tech reviews blog called Bilsta57. He has been helping me campaigning for my video entry in the past few days and last night he made me stunned and totally shocked when he announced on Twitter that he will do an iPhone 3GS giveaway if I ever win the HP contest. That’s extremely generous. I’m not even an iPhone owner myself nor can afford to buy it. He literally made me cry and my parents were very pleased as well. It’s just unbelievable for me: I’ve never encountered a compassion or help yet that big in my personal life. Bryce actually doesn’t actually talk or chat with me as my other closer friends do and I don’t even know what he looks like, so I firmly believe that his help is extremely sincere.

Update: HP has already released the list of winners.
You can watch the Tech Conclave video or read the article here.
The video entry I submitted is included in the HP contest in YouTube’s Week #6 as an eligible entry. Watch my video here.
Unfortunately, the chances of winning for the major prizes are getting slimmer each day since September 1 because I have not received any notifications yet that my video is included in the Semi Finals. However, there’s still a way for you to help me bag a prize and you can do this by voting for my entry for the Community Award. Please vote for me and my video… It takes only 3 minutes of your time.

My friend Gerardo from Alhambra, California, USA, informed me about another cool HP contest. This time the contest takes place in YouTube with the title "You On You" where entrants create videos featuring themselves in a creative way for one minute without exposing a face. I decided to join the contest because I strongly believe I have a good story that may motivate some people in the world. Here’s my entry and the full script:

On August 6, 2009, I marked my official second year (unofficially, it’s more than 2 years LOL) anniversary of my work here at home as a freelance web developer. Well, I’m more than just web developer. Time flies, as they say, and it really just flew in my case. My 48 months were not bad at all and it wasn’t bliss to work at home everyday either. There were lots of interesting and dramatic changes in my personal and professional life as witnessed by this blog.

I’ve written many web hosting articles in the past 12 months until my life has gone super busy with my web development main job, and the existence of my tech news show, Tech Conclave. Today, I’ve decided to update myself with the latest in the web hosting industry and I found this website called Web Hosting Geeks. Certainly, the site captured me because of its "geek" word. Like what I always say at Tech Conclave: it’s good to be a geek.
