I'm here at the Manila Pavillion with THE MATT MULLENWEG. Also here are other WordCamp organizers: Kuya Andrew, Blogie, Winston, and Dave. Matt taught me how to post via mobile. Here it is. ;) Some tips and notes for mobile WordPress-ing: Go to http://m.wordpress.com Log in. The numbers you see beside your blog's name is your site's statistics. If you click on your blog's name on the list, you will be directed to the site interface that is NOT for mobile posting. To post via mobile, click on the post tab on top. You won't be able to attach photos. There are no shortcut buttons to HTML codes/formats. The tags field is actually a categories field. Entry posted using my N95 Photo inserted at a later time, tips and notes added at a later time.
Thank You Boys!
Just when I was starting to become jaded and pessimistic, the world, you guys, gave me a reason to smile. You made me cry, made me remember, made me realize that everything has not been in vain, that the hard work has not been futile. Thank you for making me believe again! Thank you for making me realize I still matter! Thank you for giving me a reason to move forward! THANK YOU!
Me at the Eraserheads Concert
photo by Markku I remember listening and singing to Toyang a dozen times a day when I was in Grade 5. In Grade 6, I memorized "Pare Ko" by heart, and even watched the movie based on the song. LULZ! My favorite Eraserheads songs were With a Smile, Huling El Bimbo, and Fruitcake. Huling El Bimbo became popular as me and my first year classmates in 1 - Pearl of PSHS-MC were about to part ways. Fruitcake, on the other hand, became popular during the Christmas season during my second year. I remember my classmates Rhoda and Kimberley giving me a Fruitcake cassette as a Christmas gift. I was a fan. Not a total fanatic, but I loved them nonetheless. When news about their reunion concert spread, I never expected that I would be able to watch it. It just so happened I am in Manila for work. But then I really didn't have the P800 for the tickets. But one day before the concert, Poyty sent me an SMS informing me that Red Horse through Juned and Markku was giving away tickets to bloggers. Eraserheads. Reunion. FOR FREE! How could I say no?! So there I was 4 pm…
WordCamp Shirts
There has been sooo much buzz about the WordCamp Philippines shirt design, that people are quite excited to get and wear theirs already. I have one as an organizer, plus I ordered two just coz. ADDICT! I finally saw the photos of the actual shirts (and not the rendered ones that Kuya Andrew the designer made), and I was satisfied. It's not as perfect as the rendered ones, but it's not bad at all. I love the colors and of course the design is great. :D Daming etchos noh, intro intro na chuva... I know you want to see the photos... I'm just teasing you. Eto na po... Organizers' shirt (ladies' fit) Red Campers' shirt (men's fit) Blue Campers' shirt (men's fit) I (We) will see and get to wear the shirts soon. :) Photos by the shirt printers.
Breakfast With A View
Sunday morning, after a long night of drinking and poker, the guys decided to go straight to our friend's house and stay there until the planned swimming get together in the afternoon. My friend lives in Orange Grove, Matina Pangi, some 15 minutes drive away from downtown Davao City. Upon arriving there, we ate some yummy hotcakes from McDonald's at the picnic kiosk some meters away from my friends house. The view was sooo nice and exhilarating. The breeze was a bit cool, and the air was fresh. Mount Apo is so beautiful, with mountains and forests around it. sHaaaayyyyyy... I'm gonna miss Davao!!! And I'm gonna miss my boys too. :( Orange Grove is a development project of Filinvest. This is NOT a paid post. KTHNXBAI!
Lomofied and Mangafied Ria
Kuya Andrew got jealous of Markku's lomo effect on a photo so he asked around how to do it, and he tested it out on my Davao Summer Thingamajig photo: by Davao Photo And people are either crazy or not so fond of their Manga Avatars by Face Your Manga. Here's mine: Doesn't look too manga-ish but the boobies are definitely like mine. LOL! :P
