I would like to thank the Lord Almighty for giving me another blessed year. Thank you my families and friends for sharing wonderful moments with me.
Besides being the age where i am now, the number 33 has lots of interesting facts about it. Below are some of them. read more…
in the past couple of months, IT security experts have been tracking the propagation of a computer worm nicknamed “conficker”. Some says it originated from russia while others claimed from china.
what makes conficker so special is that it was designed the way a software company would make productivity softwares. it features the following:
- self-propagate either through USB drives, emails and websites
- antivirus stealth capability
- it also disable antivirus software and block you from visiting their web sites.
- it patch/fix a hole that it use to get into your system so that other malicious programs would not get in.
- if its not busy infecting other computers, it phones home and ask for new instruction from its creator.
- its has its own automatic update feature. what this means is (1) the worn creator now has complete control of your computer; (2) it can do unimaginable damage in a few clicks. (3) it can manipulate itself to further enhance stealth capabilities.
With 80+ percent of computers running windows, this to me is scary.
To lower the chance of being infected by this worm, you should consider these guidelines:
- Have a complete BACKUP of your important files
- Turn-off Autorun feature of Windows
- Always turn your firewall ON
- Always update your Antivirus software
- Always update your operating system
- DO NOT open unsolicited emails
- Be very careful opening email attachments even from your trusted source.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

one of the many hidden beauties of mt. makiling.
a balancing act in one of the fallen lumbers
here we reached the hot mud spring of mt. makiling. the smell of sulfur really sucks
‘would be’ mounteneers/campers should pay close attention to this sign
After hours of climbing to mud spring, we really need something to eat and drink. thank God, there’s a sari-sari store!
me, marcel and bong somewhere in the middle of mt. makiling. taking five (that means 5 minutes rest)
it doesn’t look much, but this is an 80 degree vertical climb. full of mud, and thorny wild plants.
at this moment, we’re officially lost but we hate to admit it.
the reason why we got lost? no, not because of those signs. its because we’re stubborn.
tired, exhausted but happy people.
Mt. Makiling (Mariang Makiling) is the place that taught me the meaning of “respect the mountain”.
I like what the author put on this piece, true in every word.
Experiencing headache? That’s because your brain is trying to fix an ‘out-of-focus’ image that it think is distorted by your own eye. And because this is a human face (which happens to be the first image we saw when we’re still babies), the brain tries to put things in order.
These are the kinds of people that i observed while in the store. not an exhaustive list though.
fast in, fast out – these are the kind of people who enter the store, and when they did not see what they wanted to see, immediately went out.
the homeboys (girls) – these people treat the store like they own the place. they sleep, read paper cover-to-cover and after doing that, they do it again.
laptop junkies – stay in the place for one purpose only, to get the free wi-fi that the establishment offers.
the Pickup masters – these guys go to starbucks to pick someone, whether they already have a pre-arranged EB or will still have to pick someone. i know this because …. well that’s another story to blog about.
the customer – these are the ones that order food & drinks, dined-in have a little chitchat and leave.
I’ve also noticed that there regulars in some particular branch. These people go to the place (almost) daily. they could very from the homeboy to the laptop junkies species.
oh! btw-the photo above is one of the early logo that $tarbucks used. its a mermaid with two fins spread to open the vagina. its a symbol of fertility.
“When love is accompanied with deep intimacy, it raises us to the highest level of human experience. In this exalted space, we can surrender our egos, become vulnerable and know levels of joy and well-being unique among life experiences. We attain a glimpse of the rapture that can be ours. Boundaries are blurred, there are no limitations and we rejoice in union. We become one and, at the same time, both….”
Leo Buscaglia.
When you smiled, you had my undivided attention…
When you laughed, you had my urge to laugh with you…
When you cried, you had my urge to hold you…
When you said you LOVED me, you have my heart forever…

I have been experimenting for quite some time now with my point-and-shot canon digicam. Here are some of my shots.
The parents of five-year-old Matilda Wormwood have no interest in their daughter. Although she exhibits strong signs of being a child prodigy, they pressure her to watch television instead of her preferred activity of reading. Despite this, Matilda regularly visits the local library and amasses a great deal of knowledge, so that when she starts school, she is very much the intellectual superior of everyone else. Additionally, to combat her parents’ idiocies, and to get back at them for being so uncaring, she devises clever pranks to amuse herself, such as “the hat and the super glue,” “the parrot-in-the-chimney-affair,” and “the great hair oil switch.” After witnessing Matilda’s great intellect in the classroom, her benevolent teacher, Jennifer Honey, appeals to have Matilda moved up, but the evil headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, refuses. Miss Honey is alarmed by how unpleasant Matilda’s parents are when she turns up at their house to suggest that Matilda should prepare for university.
Throughout the story, Miss Trunchbull’s treatment of her students is nothing short of child abuse; she seems to believe that intimidation is the best method of teaching. She says her idea of a perfect school would be “one in which there were no children at all.” Trunchbull stops short of beating the children with her riding crop, but only because it is now illegal; she often voices regret that she is no longer able to punish the children in this fashion. She often acts sadistically to her pupils, ploughing straight through children so that they “bounce off her feet like farts”, making regular visits to classes to show the teachers a few tips on discipline, throwing students out of windows and locking wrongdoers in a torturous contraption known only as “the Chokey.” Matilda is once threatened by “the Trunchbull” with this punishment, but she is saved by Miss Honey. Trunchbull also tries to exploit students’ weaknesses, like forcing an obese child who stole her cake to eat a large, multi-layered chocolate confection in one sitting. To make matters worse for Matilda, Miss Trunchbull has bought a second hand car that barely works from Matilda’s father’s car company and takes out her rage at Matilda’s father on Matilda, while claiming that he was “right” to warn her about the bad conduct of his daughter. read more…
I was fortunate enough to have met and rub shoulders with one of the top-notch businessman. Mr. Ricio R. Tantoco. Also known as “the slasher” among the Rustans group of companies. A jubilant, gracious, jolly and experienced yet humble being.
To you Sir, Thank You Very Much for the time spent. I wish you good health and longer life.
Last Sunday, i was with the most experienced motocross riders i have ever seen. I has lucky enough that i have these guys guide me during my first (ever!) trail ride. 6 semplangs and 1 graze, so far so good. I will definitely do this again. The photo above is my Honda XLR decorated with dirt. Up to this day, i can still feel the pains that this brought on me.

So lately, I’ve been wonderin
Who will be there to take my place
When I’m gone, you’ll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own
[Chorus:]
If I could, then I would
I’ll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I’ll go wherever you will go

Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
I’m closer to where I started
Chasing after you
I’m falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I’ve held onto
I’m standing here until you make me move
I’m hanging by a moment here with you
Forgetting all I’m lacking
Completely incomplete
I’ll take your invitation
You take all of me now…

I have none of this. I simply lost the ability since high school when I learned how to control my emotions and things about “presence of mind”.
