Just do it.

Nike? Probably. If you want to do something on a regular basis, don't just say that you'll do it. Do it. If you'll be making promises, then don't go breaking them. It's annoying, yes?

When it comes to blogging, you need to be interested in blogging. You need to be interested in sharing what you want to share to the people who will be reading your blog. If you're not inspired, you won't be motivated. If you're not motivated, you won't do it. So get some inspiration to get some motivation to get some progress, because a world without progress is a world that is meaningless.

Stream of consciousness. It's an intriguing literary genre. I'm not very familiar with it but... I think it's awesome.

P.S.: Chopin's Op.10 Etudes are also awesome.

Classical Music FTW!

I've just watched the 20th episode of the Nodame Cantabile anime. It was my first time to here Chopin's Etude 10-4. After hearing that particular part of the episode, it hit me. I just realized how amazing classical music is. I can't believe I turned my back on such wonderful music. For the first time in a while, I went downstairs to play the piano seriously. I think I'll be going back to the classical business. :))

P.S. Watch Chopin's Etude Op. 10 No. 4 below via Youtube. \m/


i'm bored

I'm supposed to finish the guitar for Physics though. And I'm supposed to finish my Reading Thesis, too. [keyword: my]

It can't be helped, though. My life has been out of sync lately :))

feb 20, 2010 :O

Huge post gap again. I'm still not used to using my mom's netbook. What's worse is that I can't use it anytime I like since I'm not the only one using it. My sister's computer is still unusable for blogging since it lacks a cable for the internet connection. [di wi-fi computer nya L-)]



btw, thanks volvo for the automotive project. :))
[passed it 5 days after the original deadline :>]

Still no cable


I miss watching TV. >_>

post gap 2

Every time something happens that disables me to sign in to my blogger account, post gaps occur. Last time it was Ondoy, which unfortunately abruptly ended my other blog :)) It doesn't have any interesting information anyway so I made another one. I dunno =))

You all know by now [all, meaning the only person who reads this :))] that my family has just moved to another house, from Sta. Mesa all the way to Pasig. [Going to Kumon takes one hour now :|]

Because of this, I've been using my mom's netbook since my sister's computer isn't fully set up yet. I was going to post some... er... posts involving pictures this past week. Unfortunately, I can't find out why I'm unable to resize them. Well, this netbook has Google Chrome and I am convinced that it's better than Firefox :)) The only problem is that I couldn't resize the images for my blog posts :| I just realized it this morning :))

That's the story of the post gap. I'll try posting more later :))

post gap



I've been too busy adapting to the new environment [ANO DAW =))] and couldn't update as much. Oh well. Belated happy valentine's day everyone! [Spent time yesterday night at Eastwood B-)]

btw, the lyrics on the image was FOB's. It was once my favorite FOB song. :))

new house.

it's WAAAAAAY smaller than I expected :|

anyway, at least may bahay na. Fun din naman pag bagong lipat. ANG LINIS =)) [kahit masikip at di pa ayos lahat :))]

Nakakapagtaka rin pala at Pinoy na Pinoy tong post na to =))

Lalaki Sa Dilim


I've just finished reading this novel by Benjamin P. Pascual. It was a requirement in school. Again, it has a very interesting story. It also shows various issues in the contemporary era - alcoholism, sex, rape, poverty, etc.

I like how Pascual presented the story. There was a sense of mystery everywhere, but despite the mystery and the feeling that there is something unknown, the narration was frank at times, reiterating the important details that were mentioned earlier in the story.

There was something in the characters that makes them seem alive. You'll really feel for Rafael, or get frustrated because of some of the other characters. I loved Ligaya. I fell in love with her the very first scene she was introduced. :))

It's an amazing novel and this might have been the best Filipino novel I've ever read. Yes, much better than Para Kay B. I read that book for a shorter period of time though, since I wasn't as busy at that time.

Final grade? I don't think I'll be giving any more of those. I don't think I'm credible enough to rate these books since I've actually just started reading leisurely. I'll just say if it sucks or not. :)) [In this case, it didn't suck. It kicked ass. B-)]

I wish all Filipino novels were this awesome :))
