New Inspiration - LG Viewty

I found an ad about the LG Viewty in a magazine and my eyes grew wide when I saw WiFi, Internet Browsing, touch screen, and 5 mega pixel camera all rolled into the Viewty's features.



LG seems to get more competitive in the mobile industry. They just released the affordable LG 3G phone and it was a hit in the Philippines. I wonder if this LG Viewty is just as cheap yet sleek. Seriously, I need to save and get a new phone. Maybe.

Morning View

Everyday going to work, this is the view that greets me Ohayo. Although a bit polluted, I enjoy this view well while waiting for the MRT elevator to open. You'll be surprised that there are days when the breeze here is fresh, no kidding -

Finally took a stolen shot of it this morning :) Can you imagine Thomas and Friends going choo choo! on that railway? That makes me feel good.

Cooking Away - Spicy Chicken

This weekend was a bit loony, the nagging fest is happening again and my mom is driving everybody nuts with her moodiness. I can't express how affected I am that my aunt will leave us because she had enough of my mom already. Definitely, I can't let these stuff pull me down. The stars say I should focus my energies on gazillion opportunities in front of me and that's what I'll do.


I was able to get this SEO e-book, wee! :) and I'm dying to have it printed somewhere. Highlighting books and papers makes me feel good. Add to that jotting down random stuff in my notebook and ticking them off.

In the kitchen, I cooked away the negativity inside my house and made spicy chicken. Had to hold back the quantity of Tabasco though. Thanks to the Internet for giving me a sumptuous recipe. Cyberspace, you are my family. Find the recipe here.

CES 2008 - I want a UMPC

If I could fly, I would be in Las Vegas attending the Consumer Electronics Show 2008. All new sparkling, mini, ultra gadgets are there. Bloggers who attended the event got to touch and see face to face uber gizmos that are yet to be released. Fortunately, the internet makes it possible for us here to also take a glimpse of what's in store for us this year.

I predict it's the year of UMPCs or Ultra Mobile Pocket PCs. Asus Eee PC came over to Philippines late last year but in 2008, UMPCs will make their way to Asia too. UMPCs can be considered as an alternative to ultra portable laptops like Eee PC, although it may be more expensive.

Unlike previous models of pocket PCs, UMPC's have more practical QWERTY keyboards, touch screens, and bigger memory capabilities of up to 40 GB (maybe some are still expandable). Their LCD screens are also wider and crispier in color.

When Unexpected Accident Hits

This morning, I was extra early in going to work. Azrael and I were riding a shuttle going to Manila when we heard a collision sound from afar. Then suddenly, we hit something. Right away, the thing we hit caused a gigantic cave inside our vehicle. I swear the ceiling almost reached my forehead, the windshield was shattered, and the vehicle looked like it was stepped on by a dinosaur. Everyone was silent, no one really screamed for dear life but all of us passengers were okay.

People from nearby were running towards our car, I didn't dare look in front of the vehicle as I might see a dead body or something. It was weird that I hailed a jeepney as soon as I collected myself because I was more worried to be late for work - adrenaline rush maybe.

Inside the jeepney, we passed by more people and some dead bodies. This is really creepy and I hate seeing accidents, I didn't know if these were the people that we hit. On my way to work i felt like I was floating and wow, I'm not dead and I can still go to work. I discovered that the thing that hit us was the wheel of a 10 wheeler truck and just discovered now that we did hit someone. See this news from GMA.

Okay, now I'm really feeling weird. Good thing I didn't know this while working >.< and hey, I am alive, thank God.

KFC happy treat

This is my treat for the day. KFC dinner oozing with gravy matched with colslaw, yummy. I wasted one hour lining up in the bus terminal and two office girls fought to get in the bus, complete with their collared blazers and A line skirts. haha.

No amount of stress could ruin my happy disposition and I hope tomorrow's another great day. I want to thank all the good people around me. Good night Philippines :)

How to make your dreams come true

Good times - its moments like these that make me think time is the most precious thing in life. Kids won't stay kids and everyone won't be on earth forever.

This is a picture of me and my niece Anya, they are flying away again after 2 weeks but at least I got my share of good times - playing bubbles in our yard, senseless shopping with my sister, and feeling just like 2 years ago. Anya was staying with us until they left for Australia 2 years ago. Anya is addicted to cars, can ask 10 questions in 1 minute, and has unlimited energy resource.

2008 looks promising for an Aquarian like me, that is, according to the stars. I've been busy with work but very happy and looking forward for things to come. A percentage of my brain and heart though is preoccupied with the thought of not having to see my sister and niece for another year or two. Changes are scary but if people want to reach some goals, you have to make make space and time for new things to come.

They say if you think positively you will achieve anything as long as you really want it. My wild dreams are:


1. to be able to afford to pay for another driver so he can drive me to work everyday. Right now I'm sharing rides with my sister Liza and I have to step down in Taft avenue to take the MRT. I want more time too so if I can finally afford to hire another driver, I can get home faster. haha that's just a wild dream and i'll work hard to achieve this.

2. Then I like world peace, i wish everybody gets a job and love it too, and I wish to make my family happy.

3. I wish Anya can stay here in the Philippines with me forever.

I read somewhere that things, when written down, are easier to come true :)

So list down your 2007 good times and your dreams for 2008. If you can dream/write it, you can achieve it!
