3am interim blog

Hey everybody, it's good to be back. It has been a hectic two months since I last blogged. I remember blogging my last article in Cebu, at Coffee Bean Ayala, no less.

I started this blog in the comfort of M/V Ma. Matilde of Montenegro Shipping. The Road Warrior was on the way back to Batangas from Odiongan, Romblon. If you have a queasy stomach, this ship's definitely not for you. If your stomach can handle the roller coaster waves, then welcome aboard. Now staying at the Traveller's Hotel for 6 hours, I have to be out on the road by 9:30.

It has been a hectic and fun two months, to say the least. I've had to deal with a lot of work and its challenges. Not easy when you've had two bosses in two months, and reporting to 3 different people at different functional levels. I have been doing a lot of travelling having gone to Cagayan, Davao, Iloilo, Batangas and now Odiongan in the past two months. It's been fun and challenging.

I have been blessed and thankful to find somebody special in those two months. Granted, I've known her for about 4 months, but the last 2 have felt like much longer with the time spent together and all the experiences we've already had. I'll tell more about it in the future (how showbiz, I know), but she has meant a lot to me, and here's hoping that this will continue long-term.

I'll write more where I can. It's not easy blogging at almost 3 in the morning after two long days of work. I'll be keeping in touch this December, as I slowly and gracefully fall out of the calendar on the 26th.

The Science Of Cam-Whoring

So I was listening to the radio here in Manila today, and the DJ talks about how cheap it is to own a digicam nowadays. Not surprisingly, the narcissists in folks come out, especially when they score a brand new camera. Because of this, it has given rise to the term "camwhoring." I think we're all familiar with this term. Just visit any person's profile in Multiply, Facebook or Friendster and you get the idea, especially if it's a 500 picture album entitled "~!me!~" Looking at camwhoring made me realize that there practically countless ways of posing and holding a camera when taking a pic. Here are some of the examples I can think of: 1.) The arms-forward picture of yourself and/or with a group. 2.) The top view arms-forward pic (to hide the double/triple chin and show off the cleavage or man-boobs). 3.) The bottom view pic (when not listening to your teacher or bored during a meeting). 4.) The picture of yourself while looking at a mirror, wit...

Processing LeBron

Image
By now, every Tom, Dick and Harry knows about the "Decision" of LeBron James to go to the Heat. Much has been said as well of all the controversy and the fallout of what he has done. It makes for an interesting case study because of the economic and emotional factors involved. We all know LeBron was a local Ohio boy who was considered one of Cleveland's own. That he left them to join Miami - on international television, no less - is really one hell of a very public breakupd. Everybody has an opinion on this, me included. Sports fans would know that Cleveland is not Boston, New York or Los Angeles in terms of championships. Why? Well, it's because they consider themselves cursed, as this article brilliantly lists . The Cavs have never won an NBA title, while the NFL's Browns last won in the 1960's. Baseball's Indians have it worse, last winning in 1948, and were two outs ( two outs!!!) away from winning the World Series in 1997. So the people of ...

A Funky Kind Of Blog

This is really Simon McMenemy’s fault. It’s his fault that I had to follow his twitter handle, and that her avatar and twitter name had to come out on “People to Follow.” I saw that she looked cute and must like football, too. So I followed her. No activity was done from my end for the next two weeks (I swear, it was two weeks, no stalking involved. Except for that one time about Anne Curtis.). It’s funny though how one innocent question posted on Twitter can lead to so much in the last four months. A question posted on the schedule of the Community Shield lead me to reply, then lead to comments about the game. After the game, it turned to tweets  about music. Turned out that she is a singer, and a passionate lover of music and the arts. I thought that she was somebody special, and worth gettting to know more. So I thought of saying something as simple as tweeting and texting “Good morning, beautiful.” I didn’t expect that it would make such an impact to her, and ...
