Top 20 Picks for American Idol 7

Since I started this off a dew days ago, I'm gonna be posting another one in here. It should really be a one boy and one girl performance every week until we reach the top 12 finalists. However, since none of the girls fared really impressively, I would be posting two guy performances here.David Archuleta, ImagineDavid Hernandez, Papa Was A Rolling StoneHopefully, the girls would perform better next wee...

Teofilo Yldefonso and Daniel Coakley (Grandfather and Grandson Tandem)

To all sports fanatics in the Philippines, you would have noticed that we have recently a renaissance of sorts in the sport of swimming. It proved again to be a gold mine for the Team Philippines in the recent South East Asian games despite the fact that the country has its WORST showing ever in the biennial meet. Out of all the swimmers...

Batanes

The Province of Batanes is the northernmost and the smallest province of the Philippine Republic, both in terms of population and land area. It is about 190 kilometers south of Taiwan. If there is one area in the Philippines has largely been not explored, this has got to be the place.The islands are situated between the vast expanse of the...

Rubik's Cube, anyone?

This wonder-of-a-puzzle was once a standard of human intellect, prompting everyone to give it a try. There is an algorithm (a formula, by the way) to solve this cube in the soonest possible time. Geeks across the globe became so engrossed that they begun to challenge each other on who could solve it in the least number of seconds (or even...

My Newest Wishlist

It's a nonworking holiday here in good ol' sunny Manila. And you know what that means? It means no work, no school, and all loungin' and chillin'! Being a laidback person, this is what life is all about. On your day bed, watching dvd's the whole day, play computer, sip frappucino, listening to music, finishing of a very tempting choco fudge cake, and whatever the heck it is i might get to think of doing. Too bad, 24 hours is...

Poo on my Shoe!!!!!

There would be some things that you never thought would happen again. Especially now that you're grown up. I'm inside my friend's office and all of us smelled something very awful. We thought it was a poo smell and we checked our shoe soles if in case one of us stepped on a land mine. I saw nothing on both my shoe soles, so I nonchalantly forgot about the whole situation and continued on what I was doing (I was busy going through...

Last Song Syndrome

I've been sooooo wanting to make this post. However, I'm having qualms because people might not like it, or it might be boring. What the heck! This is a PERSONAL blog and I'd be writing whatever is there to write about. Since my blog is about randomness, allow me to post the five songs that has been plaguing my eardrums and my brains for the past couple of months.Santeria by Sublime. It is just plain infectious.Rehab by Amy Winehouse....

World's Happiest Nation

The Little Mermaid and the rest of the Danish nation shows the world that a person doesn't have to laugh his heart out just to show that he is happy.I was brought up believing that Filipinos are generally a happy people. We laugh over almost every circumstance. We take problems lightly. We live one day at a time and we love to please everyone.However...

My Newest Pinoy Rant

In the light of all the hulabaloo that surrounds Philippine politics right now, allow me to speak up, though my voice may seem small. I'm gonna do it bulleted style. I'm too scattered to construct my thoughts the old fashioned, paragraphed paradigm. So here it is.* Gut feel tells me not to COMPLETELY BELIEVE everything Jun Lozada is saying. *It is a given fact that the Philippine bureaucracy is rotten. But that did not start...

Valentine Love is in the Air(waves)

Some activities would go kinky, others mushy and cheesy, outdoor-sy and some, out of this world (gory and morbid? lol).What are my plans for the whole 24 hours?! Well, it's my own business anyways so, shoo! Right now, what I'm doing is to play some love...

Jollibee or McDonald's?

Our blogger friend Pisanu for BISEAN made a similar post about this a few months ago. He featured Jollibee and his observation that no Jollibee is more than 100 meters away from a McDonald's outlet. He's absolutely right!!!But anyways, that's not the reason why I'm gonna be making a post about the two greasy joints! I'm gonna be doing my...

Dreams Part 3

that is the least graphic picture of dead rats that i could find.I had another dream that i wanna post in here. It's pretty weird though, with the potential to gross you out! But here it goes:I knew it was night time, and I was with my sister Nina sitting on our couch. We noticed that there was something in the couch because both of us felt...

Comfort Foods that I loved as a kid

As I made partial mention of the food that I so loved to eat as a child on a post I did some few days ago, allow me to make a post entirely about it.Both my parents are hearty eaters. They eat not just for the sake of getting nourished, but eating has always been a part of daily routine that it has to be savored in every bits and pieces....

Things About Me

Hey, I haven't really shared some stuff about myself! Being a blogger, I chose to keep my anonimity. People can know my name if chance gives us to speak personally. What's a pseudonym for if you already know the name, right? Anyways, let me share a few tidbits about myself.1. I don't usually use my real name. I only use it for official records. However, I always use and has always been comfortable when referred to by my nickname....

Bring in the 90's, TV!!!!!

I'm such a 90's kid. After school (I was a Montessori kid), I'd also head for the TV together with my sisters while munching over our favorite flavors of Chips Ahoy (mine was the original one, my elder sister has the striped variant, and my younger sister would get the chewy version). We won't be fighting over what should be watched because...

One Last Hurrah for a Fallen star

Great things don't last forever. The glorious British Empire, who once claimed that the sun never set on them was officially reduced to pieces after they handed over Hong Kong to China. MTV was such a pop culture phenom for decades. However, that significance has noticeably dropped since video-sharing in the internet and iPod and other mp4's...

Can you offer your seat to the lady?

By the way, I'm not in this photograph. I just searched for a photograph illustrating how's lIfe inside the LRT (Light Rail Transit). Manila has three lines of mass rail transits around the metro. I saw on the newspaper that several others are still on the way.Anyway, that certainly is not my topic. Since I ride the LRT four times a day...

The Newest Laker!!!!

Let me talk about sports. I've almost always talked about tennis but almost never to other sports. I planned not to write about the SEA Games because I'm just so disappointed with Team Philippines and especially the boxing brouhaha between the Philippines and Thailand. Yesterday morning, when I was still busy relocating and moving into the...

Dreams Part 2

Around 6 weeks ago, I wrote a similar post to what I have experienced last night. In my dream, I was losing some few teeth again! It was like 7-8 pieces of teeth. My four front teeth were all still intact and the molars. Everything in between them began to itch and eventually fell off my gums.I could still almost feel the itch I experienced last night?!What could this be?!?! I'm not afraid or anything close to that. I'm just...
