The reason I love old school rocks is because of the music. I am an avid music fan from the moment I heard Black Sabbath, I was hooked. That was way back in the 80's. I think I was around 7 or 8 years young at the time. I grew up mostly admiring heavy metal groups like Metallica, Def Leppard, Saxon, AC/DC, Slayer, etc. Fast forward into the present (believe me, you would not want to know my whole story) I began using Facebook for the reason that I really don't like Friendster and MySpace is more like SpamSpace. Another reason is finding my long, lost family and friends. Aside from those reasons, I find no other uses for Facebook at that time. I really don't play games and I'm not fond of taking quizzes (except maybe for 1 or 2 apps) I also created a couple of pages myself but unfortunately, I really didn't make time to see them flourish. Then I stumbled upon old school rocks. A certain person close to my heart suggested the page to me and I loved it from the very start. The administrators there are very vigilant and hardworking to grant the member's request and demands. I really love the concept of that page. I even managed to gain some friends over there.
The Concept
The idea of creating Philippine School Of Hardknocks came to me quite suddenly. I requested a song from OSR and after it has been posted, I wondered, wouldn't it be nice if the video was accompanied by some info about the artist or some trivia maybe. Then it hit me. I want to create a page that will resemble like MTV's Headbanger's Ball. The page will feature artist with their biography and discography along with some trivia and of course, videos.
Philippine School Of Hardknocks is still a work in progress. In other words, it is still in the developmental stage. We are open to all suggestions to make this page work and succeed. As of now, there are only three administrators and two hidden ones. I am still in a fence about having some more admins because at the moment, we're still in the stage of gathering members. Any help from that matter, by the way, will be greatly appreciated.
The profile image is another topic. The original profile image for PSH is the Philippine flag or something with the flag in it. I decided that it's not best to use our beloved flag for this page. I opted to use the 'Parental Advisory' that exist now because of PSH slogan: No Teachers. No Boundaries. Your School.Your Rules. Every other week or so, we will change the image to another type of advisory design.
What Lies Ahead
Philippine School Of Hardknocks is for all of you. The future of PSH is in your hands. We need you to help us make this dream a reality. Suggesting PSH to your friends is great way to make our numbers increase. Another is interaction. Send us your feedback if we're doing a good job or just about anything. Send in your request who do you want to be featured next. Any interaction from you will be whole heartedly welcomed.
Here are some tips how to suggest PSH a lot easier:
If you're using Google Chrome, you can download an extension that will install a 'toggle all' bar when you open the "Suggest to Friends" in our page or any page for that matter. You can download it here.
If you're using another browser, you can use the java script (provided below) After you click the "Suggest to Friends", copy and paste the script in your address bar located above the browser (the address bar is where the URL is located. For example: www.facebook.com/pages/) and hit enter. That will toggle all your friends and then click the "Send Invites" and you're done.
Java Script: javascript:fs.select_all()
Thank you very much for joining the Philippine School Of Hardknocks. I hope you enjoyed your time with us.
