Charice Sings the National Anthem

Posted by admin in Famous People

Charice Pempengco, in my opinion and that of thousands of others, beautifully and perfectly sung our national anthem at Pres. Noynoy Aquino’s inauguration.

I just wish that she would be the one to sing the national anthem in Manny Pacquiao’s next fight.

Birthday Cheesecake

Posted by admin in Food

What is a birthday cheesecake? It’s what people within the food service industry call a cheesecake (or any food item) that will be expiring on that day. Of course it doesn’t really mean that the food would be inedible. It’s just that its food quality will go down a bit from that point on.

I’m just not sure why it’s called birthday when such an event actually marks the birth of something.

Second Hand Computer

Posted by admin in Uncategorized

I bought a second-hand computer the other day. It’s actually just a CPU and it has Pentium 4 with 512mb of RAM. Not quite the latest and greatest when it comes to computing power, but it gets the j0b done for me.

I mean, I don’t use too much resources whenever I open my PC. It’s usually just a web browser and a word processor that I always turn on. Seldom do I use of Photoshop and even games. So I don’t really need a powerful machine just to help me get through the day.

That is something that most people should know. Choosing just the right specs for their computing purposes. Most computers and softwares today are too bloated, that you only use a very small portion of them in your daily life. You don’t need a powerful PC just to surf the net or even a full-blown word processor if all you do is write just a couple of letters or articles that are 500 words at the most.

I sincerely hope that computer and software manufacturers give us consumers an option of buying the right product for our specific needs. There’s no need to always get the most powerful thing they have.

Pink Camera Is The Way To Go, Girls :)

Posted by admin in Gadgets

With the rise of emo and anything that seems dark, there is still a huge following of the PowerPuff-type of colors. Take for example a pink camera, which is quite a novelty gadget to have (because of its color) when we see beautiful girls carrying one with them.

What makes a pink digital camera a great buy? Well, if you are a girl who has a very sweet and bubbly image, pink is your color. While people may prove me wrong on this choice, this is however just my opinion. I mean, if you’re a sweet girl you can never go wrong picking out pink-colored stuff. From your bag to your earrings to your hanky, the color pink will shout out to the world and make people notice. That’s because pink is beautiful.

Yahoo! Mail Image Bothered Me…

Posted by admin in Controversy

You can call me a pervert if you want, but this image of Yahoo! Mail really bothers me…

I can’t stop imagining where grandma’s arm or hand is reaching to. And that blank look on the guy’s face really leads to a lot of interpretations.

Mountain Dew and Caffeine

Posted by admin in Food

A while back, I have always been surprised to realize that Mountain Dew is a great energy drink, especially when I needed to stay awake at very late hours of the night. That is even though the drink is not advertised or marketed as an energy drink. And then I’ve read in a website that Mountain Dew contains at least 50 mg of caffeine.

That’s about a cup of regular coffee. So that’s why it keeps me awake and alert. Often it works even better than most energy drinks I’ve tried.

And it tastes even better. I’ve always preferred the sweet, lime-flavored drink. I also like its green packaging. Nowadays, whenever I needed to stay awake, I always grab a bottle of Mountain Dew. However, when there’s no Dew in sight, I just go back to my regular cup of coffee.

Iron Man 2: Not Quite To My Expectations

Posted by admin in Movies

Robots against robots. Or at least droids against men in metal battle gear. That alone is a great recipe for a summer blockbuster movie. And it is, as in the case of Iron Man 2.

However, when I left the moviehouse, something in me was telling me that I was disappointed. That I was expecting more. More action? Maybe, especially if they covered a greater area, not just the Stark Expo. Actually, they seem to have fought only in a greenhouse.

A more sinister villain. Mickey Rourke’s character was not too menacing in my opinion. I was looking for somene, or something that is bigger, badder, and scarier.

The only great thing in the movie was the appearance of War Machine and the two of them fighting the droids.

I’ve read that there will be a third installment. I hope Jon Favreau and the rest of the production team can come up with a great finale to this great comic book and movie franchise.
