Chicken Cacciatore

Living with a picky eater, two hungry kids, a nanny that does not eat beef, I am challenged to come up with a variety of dishes for our everyday meals. I myself eat most foods so feeding myself is not a problem.

Nokia’s iPerformer to challenge Apple’s iPhone

I hope I caught you in the ‘iPerformer’. It is rumored to be Nokia’s iPhone contender. I know Nokia has been acing the race of cellular phone assembly. They have been known to offer countless handsets ranging from practically cheap and low-end to unreasonably extravagant and high-end. But they certainly aren’t famed for catchy names. But lame codename aside, the phone is said to have impressive features. Read More…

Back-To-School Guide

Summer getaways are almost over and two weeks from now, students like me will have to face another school year ahead of us. I know every student is still not prepared to go to school and we’re still enjoying the summer vacation. But still we cannot change the fact that we will be coming to school soon, so I prepared a BACK-TO-SCHOOL guide.

Is it me or youtube?

I’ve been experiencing some major delay watching videos on youtube this past few days. A single two-minute clip was downloaded for almost thirty minutes. And sometimes, the download stucked in the middle of the video. Read more….

The Great Beef Cake Festival (a.k.a. why women should give “300″ a chance)

I happened to unearth my DVD copy of 300 last night, and, because I had nothing better to do, I decided to watch this hard-core guy movie again for the third time (or is it the fourth?).

Hard to believe, as I was the lone voice of dissent when two of my best girl friends picked this to be our detox movie of the week when it first came out last year. From the reviews I’d heard, I knew that with its requisite blood, gore, and body count – it was eons away from my usual fare of neuroses-inducing romantic comedies or intelligent thrillers. I was completely befuddled by my friends’ vehemence to see it, but so outvoted, I let them usher me into the theater like a lamb to slaughter.

And actually found myself glad that I did. But not just for the reasons you might think.

What sort of “Little Loser” can a Rockstar be?

If I had my way, I’d be in t-shirts, shorts, and sneakers the entire summer season. “WTF, but we’ve never seen you in shorts EVAR!” Exactly! Come on gais, give the corporate rockstar slash almost-model a break! I don’t have much of a choice since I’m practically coerced by my day job to be in corporate drab on weekdays and man, those things can be annoyingly uncomfortable even when it’s raining out. Good news is, owing to the Intertropical Convergence Zone, we’re in for a shorter summer season this year as heard from the radio this morning (says PAGASA). Whether that’s a good or bad thing, blame it all on the ITCZ. Heck, we can even blame ITCZ for the hike in power prices since no one has balls big enough to own the boo boo!

On the subject of t-shirts (thank Jockey for supposedly inventing the tee in its current form way back in 1913 per the infallible wikipedia), I had for the longest time been wanting to get myself some David & Goliath goodies. A few months back, I was walking inside the Power Plant Mall and a statement shirt on David & Goliath’s show window caught my attention. It read “Trust Me! i’m a liar.” I went in, felt the shirt fabric, looked at the price, made a mental note to go back soon, and left. Good thing I didn’t buy the “Liar” shirt because, about a month later, I saw Juned wearing it and I’m not so keen on wanting to look like twins with anyone just yet. Sry, Juned-san.
