When I was 13, I joined a TV quiz show representing my school. One of the questions were: What is the first day of Lent? ...I didn't know. :p We lost but what the heck. I was 13 and I was on TV. lol. Some funny things at the Ash Wednesday mass I attended over lunch break at work. - When everybody stood up, there was this 6 foot tall intern standing in front of a lady colleague who was less than 5 feet tall. Poor lady couldn't see the priest! - After we were all given ash crosses on our foreheads, a male colleague took out his handkerchief and began wiping his face and forehead, then suddenly exclaimed, "Ay! Nabura ko!(I erased it!)" hahaha... - Then the Shutdown meeting snack later that day was siopao. (Bread with pork inside).(Note: Abstaining from pork during Lent is a Catholic practice.. in case you didn't get why it was funny! :p) On a totally unrelated topic, here a creepy photo of the moon I took a couple of weeks ago when it was full...(click to enlarge)

Photos from the Manila Ocean Park Here are some photos from when I visited The Manila Ocean Park with my girlfriend for her birthday last year... I found Nemo (in Manila!) - I knew it! Creepy looking fishy eggs that sort of look more like lizards than fish... I bet your eyes would be this red too if you had to sleep with them open. :p I can talk to fish 'cause I'm a Pisces. :p Happy Valentine's Day Liz. I love you! a Theme Thursday post

Oble - UP Oblation The statue dearest to my heart is called the " The Oblation ". The Oblation is the symbol of the University of the Philippines, the university I went to for my Engineering degree. I have so many wonderful memories of UP. It was where I met my girlfriend of course. Haha.

I know Gary Granada from his winning the Grand Prize in the 1998 Metropop Song Festival for his song "Mabuti Pa Sila". I'm familiar with the song because we sang it in the UPCC from 2000 to 2004. The last line of that song is probably how Gary Granada felt before he made this recording... "Di tulad kong lagi na lang nag-iisa..." ~CLICK THE GREEN PLAY BUTTON~ Gary Granada vs GMA Kapuso by dosomethingworthwhile "And you have the audacity to tell me that my composition is OUR collective effort." This proves to be a case of ignorance on the side of the GMA Kapuso Foundation. I am theorizing that after they received the test copy from Mr. Granada and didn't like it, they handed it over to another composer.
