Iphone in RP. The trailblazing Manila Bulletin Technews lab in Intramuros is officially now the first publication in the Philippines to get hold of the much-vaunted Apple iPhone. I am also excited to be one of the first to test-drive this wonder after my editor promised to lend it to me soon after he's finished reviewing it. Something like next week ora mismo, hehe :P While I would have liked to review the ballyhooed iPhone, it would have put too much pressure and intimidated the hell out of me. Secondly, am not a Mac user. I am curious to find out ... Continue Reading...

Only in the Philippines: electric jeepneys invade Makati
Ejeepneys-raprios-3. Jeepneys are those colorfully-designed vehicles unique to the Philippines. Manila would not be Manila without this mode of public transport which stop, and pick up, passengers without a warning at every intersection. Their drivers are sometimes obnoxious and oblivious to the law, but even then, jeepneys have become icons in themselves, a sturdy symbol about living in the Philippines. Just when we thought they were in danger of being phased out, comes now the jeepney's latest evolution. The newest jeepney does not only blare loud ... Continue Reading...

Egad, I miss blogging..... can't stop it, can't resist it simply have to be ... Continue Reading...

Am also surprised to learn that blogging addiction does not only refer to bloggers but avid readers (or followers) of blogs. You can take the quiz too if you're a fan! 72%How Addicted to Blogging Are You? Mingle2 - Online Dating Which reminds me.... July is my blogiversary month. I am officially blogging for three ...

In search of the strongest coffee
greekcoffee. My job is almost cushy save for the fact that it requires me to work on the graveyard shift for a few days every three weeks. I dread it when it comes knowing that my body is conditioned to doze off, 2 a.m. at the latest. Early on, my mom determined I could not be a lawyer no matter how I wanted to take the course post-college. She knew I would simply sleep through all those books and documents. It is therefore ironic that I'd find myself in a job which miraculously teems with life 24/7. Six o'clock in the morning and there are still ... Continue Reading...
