I am just lazily surfing while on my shift in this dead hour of the morning when I noticed my stats counter.... 39 peeps online?? Shucks, this can't be true. So I check my Wordpress control panel to verify the culprit and find a direct link to Instapundit which is just like ... one of the most famous blogs in the universe :D Here is Prof. Glenn Reynolds' short mention about me which was enough to drive up my relatively pathetic blog traffic: "ANNALYN HAS A CELLPHONE with a built-in flashlight. Great for power failures. In Nigeria, actually, people favor phones ... Continue Reading...
Present perfect
My creation Yay! I didn't expect to get my super-special present a week before Christmas and now I am a happy owner of the Sony Ericsson W550i, otherwise known as "the other Walkman phone." All I can say is that it's damn good ~ well, at least better than the basic phone I had before this. What I was thinking before buying: "Oh gee, these unscrupulous merchants have jacked up cellphone prices just because it's Christmas. But since I might spend the money on something else, sige bilhin na nga! (Go ahead, I'll buy it!)" Total damage: 15K at the ... Continue Reading...

Onboard Manila’s Jumbo Kingdom
Jumbo Kingdom There are a number of floating restaurants in Manila but none is as quite posh and lavish as The Jumbo Kingdom which is docked in the CCP Complex, along the Manila Bay . "Ano ba yan, para akong nasa ibang bansa! (Oh my! Looks like am in another country)" is a common reaction of Manila's pollution-induced visitors upon seeing this giant ship which looks every inch like a majestic temple at night with its resplendent display of bright neon lights. Reportedly costing $600 million, this one is not your run-of-the-mill Superferry dear; this one was ... Continue Reading...
