First Post!

OKAY, FIRST POST! (An Introduction to my Domain)


Hello! Good Day to all of you, Welcome to my Blog! This will be my first post so for formality's sake, let us put in here a proper introductory post.



Who Am I...Who I am:


First of all, I am Jericho Christian T. Dizon. Nice sounding name huh? (Well, thanks to my Mama and Papa for giving me a name like that) I am now 29 going to 30 years old and is happily married and has a (very beautiful) daughter.

Now, why is my blog called "Ko-Ecks' Domain" you say? I know, it is not as catchy as the other blog names out there, but to tell you frankly, it is the most personal title I can give to this little blog of mine...really!

You see, throughout my entire 29 years of existence, I go by a LOT of nicknames, my relatives refer to me as Jeck or Jhek, then in my elementary days, a classmate christened me as Jec-D (kinda like a rapper name, LoL!) which I then revised and added an "H" to become Jhec-d and was the nickname I used throughout my entire secondary school days. Come college time, Jhec-d has been deemed too long and was slashed and shortened to just "Jec" or "Jhec" and on top of that, I was even called "Echo" (Oh, thank you Jericho Rosales for that, but err...no thanks!) by some of my friends and colleagues. Wooh! that is a lot of nicknames, you follow me? However, I soon realized that even though those are cool nicknames, all of those are fabricated by other people and I have no control over that, so I said to myself, "I want a nickname that I personally made myself, and will also serve the purpose of describing who I really am!" After thorough thinking, I personally chose that I want to be called "Ecko", it sounds cool and also corresponds to a brand name (Ecko Unlimited) that I really find "unique."


Another tinkering of my nickname finally made it "Ko-Ecks", which I believe a nickname I can really call my own. (I even made an email address using ko_ecks in it and not even a single "hit" that someone has used it before, I guess that really makes it my own, right?)

Now, when it comes to naming my blog, I thought that this blog will be my little nook in this vast universe we call the internet; my "domain" per se, so BOOM! I just simply named my blog just like that, my own personal little domain, and even though it may not seem much, believe me, this blog here is as damn personal as it can be.

Whew, that was a lot of words thrown just to explain my blog's name. If you have read all of it up to this point, Thank you! At least, I know you were *THAT* interested in this blog. I appreciate that, he he he.


My Motivation for Blogging:


Now, I am really a Jack of All Trades, but a Master of None..and hell yeah! I am proud that I am like that!

Ask me what thing best describes me and without further delay, I will tell you that it is a Swiss Army Knife.




Why? It has all the tools..some that you may need a lot of times and also some that you may not need at the moment, but when a certain time or situation comes, you will be happy that it has those tools rather than not have them at all.

A Swiss Army Knife will also be the best thing that will describe this blog of mine. I am not going to concentrate on one single theme or topic. I may post something about food or hobbies one day and then post a political rant another day and then just post pics of photowalks on another day.

I know that it may sound crazy, but Hey! Life is like that! Our lives does not revolve on one event that goes on to loop over and over "24/7 and 365", right? Since this blog will be about me and things in my life that I want to share, then I think the best way to deliver this blog is by going over as many themes and topics as possible that the only common denominator of those is "it provides information for that certain event, time, and situation that may prove to be useful to others when the time comes." It is just like what a Swiss Army Knife does and that is what I want to provide the ones who will stumble upon my blog, Certain Information for a Certain Situation, event, or whatever. So if you are down with that, then COOL! I am happy to blog for all of you the best way that I can.


Reactions?...Violent?..No Problemo!:


Constructive criticism is always welcome because I do believe that feedback will make me a better blogger. This is my first blog, so any comment and even criticism from readers will be a good thing.




The only thing that is not "COOL" here is foul language...That is not COOL and "I spit at the face of people who don't want to be cool"....I'm just kidding, but again, foul language is not permitted in this blog and I will appreciate if you are down with that too.

Okay, and that is it! An introduction that tried to be as personal as possible. If you have read through all of it, THANK YOU and I encourage you to come back and read my next post/s in this little Domain of mine!

Ciao and God Bless!
