Blaze the dAWg


Since ill be staying in the province pretty much, i decided that i needed a companion. So here comes the new dAWg in my life. He's name is Blaze. He is a boston terrier. He is officially my first dog. He's adorable. But when he plays with us, he bites, tender lang naman. So im training him not to do this. Bought him his own pet cargo and he stays there pretty much though the door is left open. He is not yet potty trained but im training him. Hope he grows up like Fireball, a very friendly, not a barker, timid but smart dog.

Stuck in the middle of the Province

Well im here in the province. Not in Cabanatuan but in Bongabon. Well atleast there is an internet connection here. But there is no cable tv. Unlike Cab where there are places i can go and friends to visit, here im just stuck inside the house. I wake up 6am and close the store around 530pm. That 11 and 1/2 hours of work for you. But I feel this is something I have to do to help my family and our future so I"ll do anything for us to make it. I just miss manila because my life is really there. But working here in bongabs is better than starving, or not contributing anything to my family so here I am. Kaya naman e. I"ll just take it one day at a time and everything will be all right. Buti nalang talaga my gf is understanding. Hehehe.

Electric Shaver


Wish I bought one of this sooner. It really made my mornings easier. Actually it give a pretty close shave. The only problem that i see is that the battery runs out fast. Maybe only good for 2-3 shavings (the manual said 7!). Well you can still use this thing while its still plugged so no problem if battery runs out. Or maybe i can use the 1 year warranty clause that comes with the shaver. But i dont it, sa pilipinas pa.

Fireball the Champion

I just want to share that our Pitbull Fireball has won another competition, besting over 80 other pitbulls. He has now won 2 dogshows and in both he emerged as 1.1st Place in his category 2. Best male in all male dogs in the show and 3 Best in show - the best dog male or female. He has more medals and trophies than all of us in the family combined. Talk about being insecure! haha. Here is a pic of him and his trophies...

13 Hours of Blackout

What a day. My day started with a blackout around 6am in the morning. Had difficulty taking a bath because we have our own water pump that needs electricity. Had difficult eating or doing anything because there was no natural ligth that gets into my room because of reasons. I just went to the mall to look at our jewelry and enjoy the generator generated electricity inside the mall. Got home around 6pm and there was still no light. I tried sleeping it off but it was too damn hot. And fortunately around 650pm electricity was back. Times like this we can see how really important and dependent we are from electricty. Thats it. Just want to rant about my day.

Dengue Alert

Just came back from the Hospital 3 hours ago. Lea got dengue and i stayed the night with her in the hospital. She had fever last wednesday and on sunday her nose bled and her platelet count started to dive. Thanks to Doc Elars help, we didnt worry too much because he was guiding us every step of the way. Just attended the wake of my friends dad late monday night because that was only my free night since Lea got sick. Condolences to her family. I wanted to go everynight to show my support but I wasnt able because of Lea's dengue. So to everyone out there take care of yourselves because dengue is just around the corner.

Detroit Wins

Well Detroit won. Atleast the series is more or less competitive again. Its better the lose 4-2 than 4-1. Well I hope they win another game in Miami. For Miami they should treat the next game as a game 7. You dont need to take a chance by playing a game 7 in rowdy-Detroit-fans-territory. Though I hope that Detroit wins... my heart goes for Payton, Anderson, J-Wil and Walker. Hope they get the chance to get an NBA trophy once in their career.

Wednesday, May 31, 2006

Damn Detroit!

Meeeeeeeennnn... I cant believe it. The Detriot Pistons has once again dug a deep deep whole for themselves. They are down 3-1 versus the unbelievable Miami Heat. I thought the Pistons would get a pretty decent fight from the Heat but being beaten black and blue.... its bad. I just hope that they can win two more games so that this series can go to a game 7. In game 7s anything can happen. Well i just wanna congratulate Tiu for believing Heat can do it. I just hope that the Pistons alteast put up a good fight. Lets see where the ball rolls in Game 5. Im keeping my fingers crossed.

Archos AV420


Well here it is. This is my new gadget. Its similar to the Archos Gmini400 but with these few cool additions:
-3.5 inch of screen, BIG, BIG BIG!
-Has replaceable batteries, got a spare one!
-Can record videos like a VCR (thats why its calles a PVR-Personal Video Recorder)
-Also has a compact flash slot but the only difference now is that i have this converter that make it possible for me to copy a mmc, sd, sony memory stick contents right into my archos w/o a use of a computer.
-Also got an orig leather case that i can use as a stand
But ofcourse there are also negative things like:
-Its bigger -not that pocketable anymore but you can still carry it around.
-The cardle has soooo many wires. Not for the faint or heart. If you're not techy you'll be overwhelmed.
Well overall i'll say its way better!

Im back!

Im momentarily back from my long haitus from the province. I havent been updating my blog because there is no internet connection in my small town in the province. Well, are you gonna ask what i have been doing? Well let the pictures tell you. Here are some pictures of what i have encountered in the 2 plus weeks i have been in the province:
Here is what we do, buy onions from the farmers and segregate them.
Then we resack them. These are ready to be shipped to the storage for safekeeping for up to 6 months.
Here is a pic of how the farmers bring the onions to us via the so called "kuliglig" because thats what this thing sounds like on the road.
This is the smallest water melon i have seen in my life. Saw this thing lying in the middle of a farm.
Anyway, ill be off again in a while to go back to the province once again. Till my next blog! Hope it wont be that long of a wait.

Tarantula Anyone?


Well i was browsing bidshot.com for anything useful and i came across thos ad selling tarantulas. Hehehe. I was intruiged so i texted the seller and asked how to take care of the big ass spider. he told me it was just easy. Just a small aquarium, a dish to hold water and some soil on it because the tarantula he was selling is a burrowing type. Anyway it was a Blue Cobalt Tarantula (inset). Then he told me that i just need to feed the critter twice a week. So because of his reply i really got interested. I asked for the price, ( the price posted was 2000) and he told me 1800 nalang daw. I told him ill just text him if i was really decided already. He said ok and that was that. Because I was really curious i browsed on the internet on how to take care of the tarantula, whats its temperment and the like. I found out that the said species is agreesive and is recomended only for expirience breeders. I also learned that if you drop these things, for example on the table down to the floor they will die within a week or so. Sensitive pala. But that wont be a problem cause i dont plan on handling the thing. Hehe. So now im undecided. Should i buy the critter or not?

The 4400


Men men men, i had just finished watching the 4400 season 2 and the only thing i could say is a am hoooooked. I dont want to say anything that might spoil anyone who hasnt watched it yets party but I do want to say that eason 3 looks exciting as hell!

Cowon A2

Well I am an owner of a pvp (personal video player), the archos gmini 400. Well ive been using it for quite a while now and all i can say is that i am really satisfied with it. But because im only human you cant blame me for wanting more. Hehehehe.
Well the specs for my gmini400 are (ive made it simple so average joes can understand):
-2.5" screen
-20 gig capacity
-can play videos but i need to convert it to a specific avi format which the player can read
-can play mp3 and wma
-can view pictures from it
-you can attach this to the tv and watch your movies from the tv screen
-4+ hours of videos with the use of the battery
-9+hours for music

Well here naman are the specs of the COWON A2: (grabe ang lupit nito)
-4" screen
-20 gig and a 30 gig is also available
-can play videos you download from the net directly with out conversion because it already has a built in codec inside (will definitely shorten my the video-download-put-in-the-device-process)
-can play mp3 and wma and others thats not that important
-can view pictures on it
-fm radio
-has voice and fm recording function
-can be attach to the tv for viewing and NOTE THIS: record directly from TV. Wooouw
HERE IS THE KILLER
-10 hours for video playback
-18 hours for music playback
-has external speakers
-and carrying case that comes with the package.

Here is a pic of the cowon a2


And the good thing is its not that expensive the 20 gig cost around $340 and the 30 gig cost around $390. The bad thins is its only available internationally. So if anyone of you are going to the US. Please by me one! Babayaran ko kayo pagbalik niyo peksman!

Cute Little Birds


Well one or our helpers found these baby birds on a nest a couple of days ago. What we did first was to put them on a cage. But we realized that the mother of the birds was still looking for its babies. So what we did was we transferred the baby birds in this open cage and we put it near the plant where our helper found the nest. Amazingly the mother bird did not mind the small change of place, it went on feeding the small baby birds, even right in front of our eyes. Its really cool! Hehe. Here directly at the back of the plastic cage was the plant where our helper found the two baby birds.

16 blocks

Yesterday my girlfriend and i decided to watch a movie to let time pass. We decided on watching Last Holiday but unfortunately, we were late for its screening so we decided to watch 16 blocks instead. At first i thought it woul d be just a typical Bruce Willis movie, gunfire and dead bodies everywhere ala Die Hard. But i was mistaken. The movie was better than expected. There was a story and it was entertaining enough that my girlfriend stayed awake the whole movie! She usually doze off when we watch this typical action films. Hehe. Well i recommend you watch this movie if you dont have anymore movies to watch. P.S. Side note Dont watch the Date Movie thing: acccording to my brother its full of crap. Di pa nakakatawa.
I give this 16 blocks 4 out or 5 stars for entertainment value. I am not an expert I just base my rating of personal taste.

National Georaphic Special

Last friday, Shoty Pua celebrated his birthday in 4xForce in Gilmore ave. As an added entertainment, the owner of the bar gave their pet snake a treat. The albino phyton was given two chickens to eat. Well here is a pic of a chicken being sqeezed to death. I had no chance of getting a picture of the chicken being swallowed because at that time ( the snake really took its time, a tagal) I wasnt already getting drunk! hehehe.

Last thursday as i was going to manila I saw this weird scene, a car with a toy sword on top of its compartment. The driver abviously didnt know that his son or neighbor had put the damn thing on top of his car. Made me laugh. Just wanna share.

Pit bull pups


Well last chinese new year, our two dogs went into labor. One named charlotte bore 6 pups, unfortunatley one died during birth, sayang. Then our other dog named maui bore 10, yes ten pups whom all survived. Well anyway after three weeks of taking care of these adorable pups i had the chance of taking a picture of them. These pictures were taken inside our house because these pups (the sons and daughter of charlotte) are somewhat spoiled. During the afternoons they would cry because of the heat. So what we would do is take all of them and get them into this big planggana and place them beside an electric fan. These pups have brought so much happiness in our house that im really gonna be sad when they go to there new owners and families. Well, these pups are for sale. They are kind of expensive because they are sired by two imported parents. The other 10 pups are also for sale but for lesser price because they are only sired by local parents. If you are interested, just email me and we can talk about how to take care of them and such.

Gallera Trip


Anyway, i recently went to gallera with lea and my older bro. He went with his girlfriend. And her girlfriend is accompanied by her sister and her sister's boyfriend. It was a fantastic trip because we just lounge around and relaxed the whole weekend when we were there. Well here are some pics. I took thess pics with lea's camera and we made some effects regarding color etc.
It was a trip worth to remember. Hope can go there again soon.

New Gadget

Finally, after a long long long wait i have one! I have a laptop. Though its only second hand. Its still my first and im very happy with it. Well I wasnt really looking for a laptop or planning on buying. Though i really want one i cant really afford it. But I saw this mean machine on ebay in such a bargain price i cant resist to urge to get the steal of the century. The seller was a very honest and accomadating ebayer. He even helped me on a little problem after the sale was finish and done with. Thanks Bong!
Well its a Compaq Armada M300. Well though it only runs on Pentium III it has done what i have wanted it to do. It has built in modem, runs on XP, has 2 usb ports, infrared. That really all that i need. It aslo has a built it ethernet port, which i wasnt really expecting. And thanks to my barkada BNY, it has also become wi-fi ready (through a pcmcia port card)!
Well here is the pic the new member of my geek family.

motorola a630

Hey, i have a new gadget, its only a new cellphone actually. Its the motorola a630 its a qwerty phone that opens up like a laptop. Astig. I got it from an american named bob. I met him in bf, yes i went there just to buy this phone. He was friendly and accomodating. He helped and thought me the ins and outs of operating the phone. When i saw this beauty for the first time i wanted to buy it right there and then. But ofcourse i needed to check if there is something wrong with the phone. So i stayed there in mcdo in sucat road with bob just checking out if its really a great buy. Well, because the phone is with me now, its pretty obvious that i bought the phone. I enjoyed it the whole day. But when it was time to charge the phone. The freakin thing wont charge!!! I thought i had become a victim, and that what i was holding was a 9000 peso paper weight. First i panicked and texted bob asap asking why the phone wasnt charging. He replied to me that maybe it was just the charger. Bu of course i didnt believe him. i really thought that i have been had. So the next morning i immediately went to the mall to get it fixed. I was right, it wasnt the charger. It was the phone itself! Damn! So im warning you guys if ever you are buying phone from strangers try charging it! The first phone fixer that i went to wont even want to check out wants wrong becasue he was not familiar with the unit. During that time a really wanted to kill myself. Then I went to another phone technician and he checked it and informed me that there was a slight chance that he can fix the phone and that he had already encountered a phone like mine and he managed to fix it. I was temporarily relieved. Then hw went to work. I checked the battery, not the battery, checked the charger, not the charger. Opened up the phone... doodled with the keypad...made remarks here and there and then we really went to work. He opened up the phone, used his soldering iron twice. And then checked if it was charging. Lo and behold... IT WAS! Hooo i sigh of relief. All 1 minute of soldering cost me 800 bucks with one month warranty. Pretty stiff for the amount of work but pretty cheap for the relief it gave me. Well here are the lessons i learned from this expirience. 1) check the phone you are buying and try charging it before buying it! 2) dont be so niave and trust anyone who is friendly 3) charge this phone oh so lightly to avoid diconnecting the charger port. 4) my new phone cost me not 9200 but 10000 because i had to get it fixed. Well here are some pics of the phone. Disregarding the traumatic expirience, the phone is worth every penny!

I havent been seeing my barkada recently because i was busy entertaining my cousins from the states whos all here because of the wedding of oine of our cousins. Im trully enjoying my time with my cousins because we only get to see each other on only two occasions: wedding or a funeral. Weird huh? I hope we can spend more time with them but unfortunately their leaving for the states later in the afternoon. Well, better having them here for a couple of weeks than none.

Well I've been looking around for some accessories for my gmini400 and i found out na I cant source anything locally. I was looking for a silicon case and leather case for it. For the silicon case, I judt ordered online. This is the first time I had done this so sana everything will turn out as expected. With the leather case naman. I just bought a casing for a 6630 phone. Medyo pilit pero I cant find anything better na kasi. Well here are some pictures: Pede na perfect fit naman e. I have also added 26 episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho known to most of you as Ghost Fighter.
