A movie in the promenade mall

Special holiday in the Philippines today, I went to the greenhills Promenade Mall to watch the "Exorcism of Emily Rose". I have not tried the cinemas there (that was before writing this post of course =P) and my parents were going to look around in greenhills so I went with them (No need to think about the transportation, I even save on transportation expenses =P)

We arrived late in the afternoon, so I went straight to Promenade mall got my tickets for "Exorcism of Emily Rose" and went to buy a cup of Frappucino (Collecting stamps for starbucks limited edition 2006 planner). The cinema was very nice, I liked the ambience of the Theater. The seats were very comfortable; they were soft, big (considering I am a huge man, kinda fat), and tall enough that I could comfortably lay my head on the seats. Temperature was very and I mean so very cold (I probably looked stupid wearing shorts and a cup of cold frappucino plus the airconditioning directly on top of me brrrr.. c.. ccc....oooold !!!)

Satisfied with the theater, I sat comfortably waiting for the film to start. People began filling up the theater and the trailers started playing. Some of the anticipated upcoming movies include: King Kong, Narnia (may be delayed because of Manila Film Fest =( ), then there is superman, ice age 2, and some other movies =D. Then the movie started (On time btw =P)

Exorcism of Emily Rose was a nice movie, scary. For me the most eerie part was to know that 3:00 am is the witching hour..... the reason? I usually wake up at 3 am before =S and that really is creepy !!!!!

After the movie. I got back to Unimart and went happily back home =), btw try promenade mall cinemas.... nice place.... reasonable prices =D

So much for diet !

I'm gaining weight again I believe, despite the fact that I'm trying to learn basketball and Capoeira dance... push ups everyday... the reason? week full of food !!! but hey, who's complainin' I'm not =P

Monday, we had our team building in Makati Shangrila's "Circles", and oh boy if you like buffet... I highly recommend trying it out. The food is great... chinese, Japanese, western food it's all there. For those who like desserts, there are a lot of different cakes, ice cream, "Halo Halo", fruits, crepe, and don't forget that chocolate fountain ! I ate like there was no tomorrow... brrrp EXCUSE ME =P

Thursday, was my officemate birthday. So he treat "palabok" for merienda... kinda early "merienda" @ 2 pm, it was delicious. Then apparently because it was the spirit of Christmas, another officemate bought a gallon of ice cream (half cheese, half double dutch) Yummy.

Friday, another officemate treat us. We had lunch in "Heaven and Eggs" located @ Glorietta. The reason? there was apparently no reason .... but I think it was for her promotion =) The food there was great, big servings, reasonable price ... and nice place too =)

So there it is a week full of food. I may have to loosen my belt next week (I hope not) better start my diet again and exercise 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and another 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 =P.

Thanks guys for all the food this week ! I really enjoyed it !

Where is gateway mall ?

At last it was time for me to watch the much awaited movie "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" (Don't worry no spoilers !, read on =P). The plan was to get to gateway mall, buy tickets for Cinema 10 (the one with lazy boy seats and unlimited popcorn and drinks) and enjoy the next two hours watching harry potter... but guess what... plans do change. =D

From Greenhills (greenhills because I had an appointment with a doctor earlier =D), Me and my friend Dennis started our journey to gateway mall... yes it was a journey because it was only my second time to go there and I had no idea how to go there ! actually i did get a few pointers from my Dad, but I was most probably out of my mind, preoccupied thinking of some things that I missed gateway mall and I had to do a billion u turns just to get back on track. So after wasting a few gallons of gas going around edsa (OH MY!!! GAS IS VERY EXPENSIVE these days!!!) we finally arrived.

Bad luck does not stop there, when we got to the ticket booths I thought I went to a market place... there was just too many people lining up for Harry Potter that I had no idea where to line up. Worst, the tickets for the lazy boy cinemas were all sold out =( so much for the two hours of luxury =(. well let's look at the bright side.. at least I was able to save 150 bucks =D

Then I "coincidentally" met my lovely friend and her cute sister. Actually I knew they were gonna watch the same movie that day, but did not know the exact time. So when I saw the looooooooooong line i offered to help them buy the tickets =)

So the movie started @ 7:30 and ended around 10:00 pm... i felt stupid afterwards because i think i was not even able to try to strike a conversation for that two hours =( (Jan is Bad , idiot ! =( )

Anyways the rest of the day is history (As if there was any day left it's like 10:00pm!! ~). The ride home was also... easy did not get lost anymore ! couldn't afford to get lost... (yawns!)

good night and thank you for reading this post =D

Dumbest hacker in the world =)

My friend Wendell sent me this email message before, and i'm still laughing whenever i read this text. I wonder if it's even true =) Guys and Gals, presenting to you the world's dumbest hacker..... (as copied from dunno how many sources =P)

This is a transcript of the worlds dummest hacker on an IRC channel. The original can be found here:

http://www.jellyslab.com/~bteo/hacker.htm

The comments are not mine, they belong to the original poster of the dialogue.

|bitchchecker|tell me your network number man then you're dead
|elch|Eh, it's 129.0.0.1
|elch|or maybe 127.0.0.1
|elch|yes exactly that's it: 127.0.0.1 I'm waiting for you great attack
|bitchchecker|in five minutes your hard drive is deleted
|elch|Now I'm frightened
|bitchchecker|shut up you'll be gone

|bitchchecker|buy buy
|elch|I'm shivering thinking about such great Hack0rs like you
* bitchchecker (~java@euirc-61a2169c.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)


What happened is clear: That guy entered his own IP-Adress in his mighty Hack-Tool and crashed his own PC. This way, the attack on my PC was a failure. I was already starting to think that I did not have to worry, but a good hacker never calls it a day. Two minutes later he returned.

|bitchchecker|dude be happy my pc crashed otherwise you'd be gone
|metanot|lol
|elch|bitchchecker: Then try hacking me again... I still have the same IP: 127.0.0.1
|bitchchecker|you're so stupid man

|metanot|ah,[Please control your cussing] off
|bitchchecker|buy buy elch
*bitchchecker (~java@euirc-b5cd558e.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Ping timeout#)


There was a tension in the room... Would he manage, after these two failures, to crash my PC? I waited. Nothing happened. I felt relieve... Six minutes passed by until he prepared the next wave of attack. Being a Hacker, who usually cracks whole data centers, he knew what his problem was now.

|bitchchecker|i'm 26
|metanot|such behaviour with 26?
|elch|how did you find out that I have a firewall?
|metanot|tststs this is not very nice missy
|bitchchecker|because your gay fire wall directed my turn off signal back to me

|bitchchecker|thn my virus destroys your pc man
|metanot|are you hacking yourselves?
|elch|yes bitchchecker is trying to hack me
|metanot|he bitchchecker if you're a hacker you have to get around a firewall even i can do that
|bitchchecker|yes man i hack the elch but the sucker has a fire wall the
|metanot|what firewall do you have?
|bitchchecker|like a girl
|metanot|firewall is normal a normal hacker has to be able to get past it...you girl^^

|bitchchecker|elch turn off your shit wall!
|metanot|i wanted to say something about this, do you know the definition of hacking??? if he turns of the firewall that's an invitation and that has nothing to do with hacking
|bitchchecker|shut up
|metanot|lol
|bitchchecker|my grandma surfs with fire wall
|bitchchecker|and you suckers think you're cool and don't dare going into the internet without a fire wall


He calls me girly and says only his grandma would use a firewall. I know that elder people are much more intelligent then younger, but I couldn't let that rest. To see whether he really is a good hacker I lie and let everything as it is. I don't have a firewall at all, only my router.

|elch|bitchchecker, a collegue showed me how to turn the firewall off. Now you can try again
|metanot|bitchhacker can't hack

Drive E:? Oh my god... All the games are there! And the vacation pictures! I instantly take a look. Everything still there. But the hacker said it was deleted.... Or isn't it happening on my computer?

The guy is good: My CD-drive is allegedly deleted! Bitchchecker turned my ancient disk sucker into a burner! But how did he do this? I'll have to ask him. Some encourage him. He himself is giving advice how to avoid the disaster on my hard drives.

|bitchchecker|elch man you're so stupid never give your ip on the internet

Should I tell him he's not attacking my computer?

Too late... It's 20:22 when we get the last message of our hacker with the alias "bitchchecker". We see that he has a "Ping timeout". We haven't seen him since then... must be the Daylight Saving Time.


Hope you enjoyed it !

Qualities to look for in a partner

"Have you ever seen a Jade in it's raw form....? i'm guessing you haven't..." the speaker asked the audience in tonight's young professional fellowhip =) (Christina Arcayan Co). A Jade in its raw form looks just like a normal piece of rock, its not beautiful... it may be of any color, but to a trained eye.. a "discerning" eye this piece of rock is a treasure. =P

Similarly to find the qualities we are looking for in a partner, we need a discerning eye, and there's no better way to identify these traits by first applying these traits to ourselves. =)

The speaker has given some pointers on how to evaluate a persons character through his/her relationships and they are as follows: (btw, i believe i've also read these in "I kissed dating goodbye"
  1. Relationship toward Authorities
    People who can't respect authorities, tend to not honor their spouse in marriage =)
  2. Relationship toward parents
    You've probably heard the saying "how a man treats her mother is how he would treat his wife", there is some truth in this statement(Note the word "some" =P )
  3. Relationship toward the opposite sex
    A man who moves like a butterfly from each woman to another will not change because of marriage =) (it's naive to think that way)
  4. Relationship to Companions
    ever heard of the saying "When the character of a man is not clear to you, look at his friends"??

OK, this is not fun anymore. I've been relaying messages instead of writing my own experiences. oh well last quote and closing line "Don't worry about impressing the opposite sex, Instead strive to please and glorify God. Along the way you'll catch the attention of people with the same priorities."

Hustle while you wait

A few weeks back i've finally finished reading Joshua Harris' book "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" (known the book since high school but never read it =P). One of the topics discussed in the book was the gift of being a single...

Any season of singleness is a gift, it is a special time to prepare us for the next season of our life =) During this time we have an extra time to learn things, we have freedom to serve the Lord, and so on and so forth.

Josh used the phrase "hustle while you wait", it means to do something while you are waiting. Quoting from the book, "While we do not know the next step in our romantic relationships, we still have work to do. We have bad habits to get rid of, good habits to develop and character to build. let's hustle !"

Yes, yes let's hustle and so i've decided to do the following:
  1. Improve my relationship with the Lord =)
  2. Improve my character.
    Confidence is a word not found in my dictionary... i wonder why? and that's probably something I should keep working on =)
  3. Practice some practical skills...
    like COOKING !! it seems the only thing I know when it comes to food is eating =P (well I do know how to cook instant noodles, if that even counts for cooking =P)
  4. Of course the list goes on..... but i'll stop here =)

As of this writing.... this has been the Nth revision i've made. I dunno what's with me today, I started on trying to write a post regarding the "gift of being a single" and as I write ... and write... and write... I ended up with hustle while you wait... maybe this subject suits me more =).

BTW i've also watched "The 40 yr old virgin" today, not that great but worth a look if you've got nothing else to watch =D

Red Box Team Building

Second Karaoke team building =), this time we headed to Red Box Karaoke located at Greenbelt 3 Makati. We arrived at around 7 pm just in time for our reservation. (small world another team was also having their team building there =P)

The place was nice, mainly red coloured walls (but nice) =P. Dinner was first priority now, every one lined up the buffet table. Not much choices are available but enough (whos complaining ?? =P) The food was delicious ! I had some fish (it was boneless with pesto sauce), pasta, spicy porkchops (water please !) and a serving of salad as dessert (yummy =P)

Now that the stomach is taken care of, the singing started. We had a contest so everyone had to sing a song (with gift certificates as reward for the winner, judged by clapping of hands =) ). At the later part of the night came the attack of the boybands ! followed by the destructive(Dunno what word to use) rock music =P and the tonque twister rap songs.

I went home at around 11:00 PM.... and that's it nothing more ! i'm sleepy *YAWNS =D

Do as I command !!! =P

The other day i went looking for a new book to read and guess what i've found a gym !!!!! =P THE MIND GYM is a book with a interesting, nice green cover with a big bubble design in front.. (what happened to don't judge a book by its cover =P) The book aims help us get more of our brain =) and believe me I was able to use things i've learned from it tonight. =)

I got home late from work and went to take a quick shower, right after i quickly went to the other room to have a quick check of my personal email :) and there as I was about to enter the room I saw my father playing "wei qi" (or otherwise known as "Go"... still don't know what it is... check the web =P) on the computer. From the looks of it I was not having any chance of checking my email or even update my blog (as im doing now) =), however i remembered the chapter on influencing other people =P suddenly a devious smile came upon my face and started reasoning =P ... "Pa. it's almost midnight shouldn’t you be taking a bath now ??" bwahahaha =P

A sneaky advantage... a nice book... try it, you even get a free online membership wherein you could access more tools and resources, and btw the book is arranged ina way wherein you take up only things you need same as a physical gym =P

Young Professional Fellowship

After office I went to join Young Professional Fellowship in our church (United Evangelical Church of the Philippines). This was my first time attending and was nicely entertained by my friends from High School =)

I arrived at around 7:20 PM, dinner was served there. I've met some new friends and started filling up the bio data form =P. Today's topic was to live a debt free lifestyle by Dr. Andrew Liuson. Some thing which i'd like to share:

Cut Credit Cards. Yes I know most of you would tell me that you use credit cards but pay them on time, however it gives us a false sense of power. The other day I went shopping for a book and I used cash despite an advise from my friend to use my credit card. What a difference, after that I was unwilling to spend money to buy anything else since I knew i'll be over my budget. If I had used my Credit Card I'll probably continue spending =P


After that... what else... I went home... =P Have a nice day !

Keeping in touch

"I'll miss them" was the first thing that came into my mind this morning, that was upon knowing that some of my friends were leaving the country for "greener pastures" =P (they told me today... and they are leaving today =( ....speechless !!). "Its probably for the better" they say....true =)

I'd like to say kudos to all of you.. for being able to go out there and try your luck in a foreign country. I wish you all success... and hope to see you guys again.. someday soon. (i mean if we/you visit..... =P)

Thinking about it for a while, it shouldn't be much of a problem to keep in touch. Here are some ways I'd think of:

Email, Letters can be sent in an instant through email...FREE OF CHARGE and if that's not enough we have the dependable chat clients,Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, Google Talk... you name it... i probably got it =P although sometimes you receive a message a day delayed =P (at least you still received the message =P ) and theres even VOIP (VOIP stands for Voice over internet protocol, it allows computer users to make telephone calls using a computer network ) =P


then again... nothing compares to meet friends personally... face to face =)

International Coastal Cleanup

Today, i've joined another volunteer service =) for a good cause =P. International Coastal Cleaup Day, (aww you missed it =P) is celebrated every third saturday of September in an effort to keep our beaches, lakes .... and so on =) clean! "This is an international event celebrated all over the world" as reiterated by the organizers =P Before the actual eventI thought I was gonna jump across the ledge into Manila Bay's shore.. guess i was wrong...

Upon arriving at the site, I immediately went to the shore and figured it was not gonna happen =(. Anyways, at least it was not raining anymore and it was not blazingly hot either. The event proper started at around 9 AM, with our free t-shirts on (yahooo free t-shirt) we started picking up the trash along Manila Bay.

Boy were the organizers right about the activity being an international event, schools and other organizations flooded the whole Manila bay (and where are we supposed to start picking up trash??? THEY'VE ALL BEEN PICKED UP!?!?... ok guess i'm just exaggerating.. there are still some trash here and there =P)

It probably took us around an hour to finish cleaning up, I was able to pick up a lot of cigarette butts, candy wrappers, barbecue sticks, "tansans", and a shoe ! Well i guess to prevent this from the future is to stop people from smoking there?... that would probably be a solution that'll solve two problems in one go... Less trash... and less smoke =P

The activity was successful in a way(yes we did reduce trash in Manila Bay... i hope :D), but i think there were a lot of things we could improve on next time around. (or so i think =P)
1. We have to bring in some nets, I think it's more important to scoop those trash down there...
2. Somebody organize a event for all to take part in??... there were a lot of other organizations around there and maybe if everybody talked first... we could split the area so we won't be cleaning and looking for trash in the same places...
3. ....... don't have anything to say anymore... can somebody help me fill a list of reasons here? (Achi? Sef? Grace? Glenda?) AHA!!! we encountered a Severity 1 problem FOOD WAS LATE !!!

So what's next after a hard morning's work? rest of course !! I went straight to (with Achi, Grace, and Glenda... although they went back to the office... did they??? =P)Makati, Greenbelt to catch a movie, "Cinderella man" great movie.. you should go watch it. After that I went on to greenhills, just in time for an appointment with my dermatologist =P whew !

Signature campaign: Haribon

Today i'm doing something for a good cause... save the Natural forests and mines in the Philippines =P by joining a signature campaign to stop illegal logging. Btw, the event is hosted by Haribon Foundation, it is a organization dedicated to conservation of the Philippine biodiversity. To know more about them visit their site (link on the title of this article =) )

As I was travelling home, I got my signature sheet, blank (each sheet should have 30 signatures), and started offering every person i've met on the road to sign it (of course i started looking for people I frequently met =P)... surprisingly no one turned me down... it must be real easy when you are doing something nice. of course there are still some people who would raise their eyebrows upon seeing a signature sheet... =P you'll just have to let them know you are not making some hocus pocus "thing" with that signature sheet =P

From this experience i've learned some things... some things which you probably would not learn any other way... and here they are:
1.) Sometimes it's easier to sell something to a stranger. why? because they wont ask too many questions, they'll just pick up a pen and sign on it =P
2.) Getting some peoples signature is probably a nice way to practice your sales skills. The paper somewhat acts as your product and the signature is the payment you get when you are able to successfully sell your product.
3.) It's nice talking to some new people ! maybe you already know this but i think i'm just beginning to like it =P. Beware though... sometimes some people just won't return a nice greeting.

Well that's probably about it... btw i've managed to collect 18 signatures 12 left for tomorrow =P also distributed some sheets to my sister... its easier to collect signatures in schools =P i think !

Crossing the river IQ game =)

Another flash game.. well this one will keep you busy guessing for the right combination (I hope =P) As a summary a family is lost in the woods, they met a policeman with a robber (striped shirt). Along their their journey they come across a river, which they need to pass through and the rules are as follow (mechanics =P)(i'm sure some of you have already heard this by mouth iq game... but it probably looks cute here so try it =P)

Mechanics:
1. There is a total of 8 persons who should cross the river. They are composed of the following
a. Father
b. Sons X 2
c. Mother
d. Daughter X 2
e. Policeman & Robber
2. Only the Father, Mother, and Police can drive the raft
3. The Sons cannot be left with the mother without their father, because the Mother will punish the Sons (dunno why though)
4. The daughters cannot be left with the father without their mother, because the Father will punish the Daughters
5. The Robber cannot be left to any member of the family because he'll escape (dunno why the police won't put the handcuffs on this guy though =P)
6. Only two persons are to ride the raft or it would sink
7. Good Luck!!! and God Bless !!


It took me around 30 minutes to solve this problem =( (a tad slow i think), anyways as a tip, don't be afraid to go around the raft as many times as you can.. theres no limit =P... If you still can't figure something out... ill give you some hints if you want... just post em below. Good day !
