Flood memories

“This morning I was just worried about a leaky roof and homeless kids. now a lot of people, rich or poor are affected by Ondoy.” – My Facebook status, September 26, 2009. “If others have lost everything, what you have is definitely more.” - One of my recent OOB. Why do I help? The truth is, I’m [...]

Rain, Rain Go Away

  (Picture originally uploaded by kennytyy)   We can’t go out, They can’t get in. We preferred being in bed, They have one, yet under an open shed.   We love the sound of the rain fall, They wish they can. We scan our fridge for a good rainy day food, They, however, look at [...]

Let's embrace change

  Isn’t it funny that change is such a short word but solicits hundreds, if not thousands, of reaction no matter what the subject matter is all about and no matter how trivial or significant the change will be? Think of one thing that went through change that wasn’t met with resistance or protest. A [...]

Facebook shockers…

  Let’s admit it, from time to time we love a good laugh, we love a good read, and yes, we even love a good gossip. And that’s what I like about facebook. It’s like an online Aliwan Komiks, a sosyal tabloid, a friend’s sports mag, a contact’s personal tech review forum or whatever one [...]

What was initally bought to bake dog food (for our then bully) has finally produced its first baked “people” food. Thanks to wifey, for the first time she gets to bake something out of it.

Losers. Such a waste.  Then I heard our MBA professor confessed that he and his wife got addicted to [...]

  Have you ever looked at product expiration dates and think about other things than just what it exactly means to that product? Well, yesterday I did. While washing the dishes after lunch, my peripheral vision caught this bottle with my wife’s handwriting. It’s labeled, “ Corn Starch exp. June 4, 2011.”  For a couple [...]

A video conferencing faux pas

I had a funny recollection while listening to a classmate discuss about video conferencing. Several years ago while I was yet a technician, we had this activity wherein we did an RTC (or Real Time Collaboration) with another site somewhere abroad (if it’s Costa Rica or Malaysia, I can’t exactly remember) using video conferencing. Here’s the [...]

Editorial Abstracting

A month have past since I got into this job. The moment I learned, from one of my facebook contacts, that it does exist, I grabbed the opportunity to get to know more about it. I just love writing and so it didn’t take much time before I signed up. Few weeks later, I attended [...]

Bobo Ka…nga ba?

A couple of nights ago, despite the piled up school assignments, I was tempted to design a logo which I will post here on my blog until next year’s election is over. Like most people (I assume), the recent development in the political arena is quite something that should be of concern to us Filipinos. [...]
