My new TOYS
if you don't have iPod Video, grab it NOW! cool gadget for busy yuppies like me! hehehe. you think you don't have spare time to watch dvds? i say you're flat wrong. you can watch movies and soap operas even you're in a motion or on the road.
inside my iPod, i have a compendium of videos, namely:
1. batman and robin- disc 1 to 4
2. the incredibles
3. brokeback mountain
or songs, i have collection from billboard top 100 (from 1984 to 20067), and some piano aspi
did i forget to mention the photos? yeah, i have tons of it in my iPod Video
since i threw my cp on the wall... here's my new one..
nokia N90
the first time i held this device at nokia shop (in glorietta), i can't loose it in my grip no matter how sky-rocketing is the pricetag, amounting to 35K. it is mordantly expensive than in greenhills which is just 28K but i won't take the risk of taking side on cheaper price over warranty cost. the saleslady was right - it is more expensive to replace parts. by the way, the box has sticker which says 'this mobile phone comes with a 12-month limited warranty from nokia care'.
well, there are more good things to say on this phone but i will share the compendium of mediocre of this techy gadget. first, it does not have *vibra* mode. i am the person who hates ADD (attention deficit disorder). meaning, when a new message comes in, the next thing you will hear is the annoying tone. people around you will start mocking as if it's your first time to invest a mobile phone.
second, for the first three days, phone charging is done almost everyday. the saleslady advised to charge for 2-4 hours when the battery gets empty and take note the power is turn off also. *fic!* this is to take effect and to result to maximum standby time of the phone.
before i call it a day, it is already past, i am all smiles to have this phone and hearing the nokia message tone again is dulcet to my ears. seeing my old wrecked sony ericcson k500i these days is an
EYESORE..

I feel sad that McDonald’s cor. Aurora and
Araneta ave. will be closing down later this week.
I’ve spent more than 5 years studying in this
place and I will surely miss it. It may not be the
best outlet but I have come to love the place like
home. I even wrote my name under my favorite
table if only to claim it. The bald store manager is
kind and the salespeople are pretty nice. They
know that I drink coke lite and that both my
drinks and fries are always upgraded, even
without me telling them. We exchange smiles
when we meet each other even outside the outlet.
I’ve watched people rise from being servers to
cashiers to supervisors. One time I even got
Christmas gifts for the guards because they’d let
me leave my things to go eat outside when I’m
sick of burgers and fastfood.
I’ve finished highschool and gotten my driver's license,
but I still go back. Some part time crew members
have graduated from school and found
themselves other jobs, but they always come
back to visit. But soon, like every establishment
in that building, KFC on the far side, Mr. Quick
Fix (another version of Mr.Quickie), the famous
sisig place, Backdo (behind Mcdo), there will be
no McDonalds to come back to.

isn't it ironic when things seems to be ok, but
then, something would come along the way in
contrast to what's right...?
isn't it ironic when happiness' being felt is
enough , but then, greater one would come, but in
a very wrong time...?
isn't it ironic when people around you were just
so right, but then, better ones would come along,
again, in a very wrong time...?
isn't it ironic when you're just about to enjoy life's
great blessings, but something unexpected would
come , that tests your true happiness and self....?
haaaayyy....life's too short.... it's just so funny,
when all the happiness in life, has something sad
in return and in reality. that one morning, you feel
so lucky, and at the end of the day....you feel so
stupid.

nice of you to drop by my blogspots. i'm really
flattered of you spending time to read my entries.
well, sorry to disappoint you.
i'm just a busy student
in the flagship campus of the PREMIER state
university in the country, popularly known as the
University of the Philippines.
the life in peyupz in not a walk in a park -(well we
literally walk everyday, because of the high rates
of ikot and toki jeepneys). it's really stressful, as
they say every u.p. day is a hiking day.
that's not all, 24 hours is not enough to finish all
the work for that day. you have to sacrifice your
time for resting and sleeping for the time you allot
for academic purposes. especially me, i have a
lot of work. i have my plates for my major
subjects, and that a mountain of work. all you do
all day and night is compute, record, analyze, balance
and many more. and there are these
general education (g.e.) courses with their
different types of papers -reaction papers,
reflection papers, research papers, analysis,
readings, etc.
and when you're in your dormitory(well, im not),
hoping thatyou will be able to rest and sleep or star doing
your assignments to finish it early, comes the
sign on the bulleting board that says comittee
meeting, corridor assembly, general assembly,
seminars etc.
but suddenly your org mate will approach you,
saying about a meeting or something, somewhere
in the premises of this wide university.
and how about your social life life. you don't want
to mark as antisocial or a member of the ever
popular antisocio-cultural comittee. you have to
make "tambay" with your friends and have a little
chat until curfew. or during weekends, have a
stroll inside the university or at the mall or
somewhere else.
whew! it's really energy consuming and really
hectic. but it's just a matter of proper time and
resource management.
it's hard to enter this wide, chaotic world of u.p.
but it is pretty much difficult to get out of it with
your diploma on hand and being cum laude.
