College Arnis Team

Goofballs, the lot of us. Great times.

Yes. That's an archery target in our home.

My Grandfather In His Shop

DIYer. When given any gift he will reply: "You shouldn't have bought me that. I could have made it myself."

Manila Smog

Gross.

Kylie Minogue - Wow

I'm listening to Kylie's Wow song from her X album and the intro blows my mind away. I could never in a million years imagine such sounds are possible and yet playable on a piano. The day before I surprised myself by writing a solution to a google sponsored "treasure hunt" question in 20 minutes. I imagine a programming equivalent to the intro on the Wow song would be instantly visualizing the solution, running it in your head then generating the correct answer right then. It's so creative and yet so simple. I don't know if you will feel the same, however, but that's what I think.

Oh, don't bother listening to it on low-fidelity speakers or earphones. I hate those tinny sounds they make.

Extraordinary

Extra ordinary. Hmmmmmm.

Racing Model

:p

Religious Book

C++. Found it at Booksale in Mall of Asia. I concur.

MPPA vs TorrentSpy

MPPA awarded $100 million vs TorrentSpy. This is so sad. Please scroll down to the comments. The commenters tried to put the $100 million into perspective by saying that the USA gave $3 million in aid to Burma. And that's like 24 minutes in Iraq.

I am against Piracy. I pay for movies I watch in cinemas but do I get a refund if the movie or experience was awful? No. I am against crappy movies.

The commenters' comments regarding indexing copyrighted material being illegal and how it relates to Google made me chuckle. I am interested in how this will turn out.

How to Prototype a Game in Under 7 Days:

These guys are impressive! I totally agree with their graph describing group and individual development over the development process against time. I like to code individually with all the decisions made beforehand. I like to create solutions that are only software problems like how to make this field display this while the user moves from these other fields. I don't want to decide how the whole software is going to function on my own but I do like to make it work as long as how it works is already decided.

Chuck (TV Series)

It's pretty cool. I've watched two episodes and I'm surprised how suspenseful and exciting it is for a tv series about a normal geek infused with government secrets and having two agents watch over him. I like Chuck. He's normal. He's geeky - scratch that, he's nerdy and he's totally normal. He's like the anti-anti-hero. Nerd Herd. Lolz. Geek Squad was already taken.

Google Reader

... has a notes/comments section for shared items! Woot! I've been waiting for this for months.

The Forbidden Kingdom

Awesome fight scenes! Fast moves! The movie premise is a bit shaky but Jet Li and Jackie Chan sure do make fighting look easy.
