Recovery

Holiday seasons are always busy that even the “bloggers” I know don’t get to post often this time of the year. So I thought I’d force myself to blog about anything just to get a post up. If my memory serves me right, the last time I posted was about a month ago, but I distinctly remember the scarcity of posts starting after Typhoon Ondoy. A lot has happened since then, so I figured I break them down and blog about each topic until I get a semblance of an active blog again.

Since I mentioned Typhoon Ondoy, I guess that would be a good topic to get things rolling. I wasn’t sure if it would be in good taste to discuss how lucky we were that day as far as avoiding the floods went, but since a bit of time has passed, I guess now’s as good a time as any. Read More

iPhone virus/worm?

First, I’m testing this blogging app to post entries straight to my site from the iPhone. Hooray for that 😉

So there’s Ecto for the desktop, and this for the iPhone.

Okay, on to the topic.

Just to make things clear; having Rick Astley as a wallpaper is a feature – that’s just full of WIN 😉

Seriously though, in a nutshell; both the actual case and potential dangers it implies, while true, are overrated. Read More

R.I.P. Maxine

Maximillian “Maxi/Maxine” Kartuti Salcedi

Maxine was put down this afternoon. We had already made the decision to put her down months ago, but couldn’t find the right time (and possibly the heart) to go through with it. Read More

Love in the movies

Within the past few months, I was able to watch two “love” movies: The Ugly Truth and 500 Days of Summer.

The first, I wanted to watch because a bunch of friends said that Gerard Butler’s character reminded them of me. 1 Too bad it wasn’t because of his dashingly rugged good looks and ripped abs. The second was Cris’ request because she has a she-crush on Zooey Deschanel 2 And I have to admit, the trailers were pretty interesting as well.

I thought I’d just want to mention some of my thoughts on the movies. So the disclaimer is, if you’re not in the mood for some discussions on life and love, I guess you could just ignore this post. Otherwise, read on.

Oh and btw, SPOILER ALERT! You have been warned. Read More

iPhone jailbroken apps worth paying for

It’s been a while since I blogged, the past few weeks have been extremely hectic with the storm, work, etc. that I had been neglecting my blog. Anyways, there are a bunch of stuff I could discuss from the past few weeks, but lets focus on one right now. I’m starting from the most recent “happening” – which is how I had just updated my iPhone OS to v3.1.2 1 since the tools for jailbreaking my 3GS was made available only recently.

Now why is this worthy for a blog entry? Maybe it isn’t. Perhaps if you knew the context, it would make more sense. 2 And help you decide if it’s worth taking note of Sufficed to say that this only applies to iPhone users (and those who are planning to get iPhones, I guess) Read More
