Demanding...

All names and pets deliberately changed
to protect the innocent...

Bagong contact sa facebook.
So sya, sya, bisitahin ko pet nya sa Pet Society...
Pakitang tao, kumbaga.

Ay, wawa naman.
Napapabayaan.
Madaming ginagawa siguro
kaya di nabibisita.

O sya, sya,
since good samaritan naman ako
e paliguan at pakainin.

Aba, aba, ang bruha e demanding!
Kulang pa ang epol at ang corn on the cob na pinakain ko,
naghihingi pa ng cheesecake!
E susginoo, e yun pa naman ang wala sa inventory ko.

Good samaritan mode na naman,
at nag-hanap ng cheesecake.
Dun ko lang nalaman na wala pala
sa supermarket ang cheesecake
at nasa cafe pala.
Grrr... Pinagod pa ako.

Ayun, to make a long story short,
busog si pet sa cheesecake.

Sabi nila, reflection daw ng amo
ang pet sa facebook...
So...
That means...

(joke lang, ha.)

1st IT Track Lecture Series

For Tsokulit. It wasn't really the way we planned it. The original plan was a vendor fair, but circumstances dictate that I improvise. But there'll be a next year. :D

Thanks to Sir Tyran Tenmatay, Lecturer, SLIS, and Ms. Ruzette Tanyag, Sun Campus Ambassador, UP ACM and UnPLUG.

Guys signed up for the OSUM (http://osum.sun.com) - Open Source University Meetup, got to know about FOSS and were introduced to Zembly (http://zembly.com).

PLAI - Southern Tagalog Region Librarians Council: LibSpeak 2009 and LIS Congress 2009

http://plaistrlc.blogspot.com/2009/03/libspeak-2009-and-lis-congress-2009.html
Rene's thoughts on LibSpeak and the LIS Congress.

FlipSpin Greenbelt 5

Been a while. Visited the guys of FlipSpin, the extreme yoyoing community of the Philippines. They're the greatest guys ever to tinker around with spinning skilltoys (due to the enhanced / highly developed motor skills and speed). Got a new baby from (international) MadHouse-sponsored Ernest (aka Yoing Skater), a green plastic Grind Machine with hubstacks.

Safety...

This made me say... "Oo nga, ano." Kept track of taxi-riding friends by writing down, jotting on a cellphone's note app or taking a pic of the license plate. When alone text the license plate to someone. Or... plurk / tweet it.

(I know Mado won't mind the pic.) :D

(I hope...)
