Love For Me

Dear MJ,
Here is your horoscope
for Saturday, July 31:

A faraway loved one is about to make their way back into your life -- and soon. Hey, give them a few minutes to think about it, okay?

I wonder.

I Am Worthy

I am worthy. So worthy.

And this is getting so exciting.

Ninety-something Retouched

Reloaded and Rewind are so abused these days. I wanna use something else.

It's done. It's going to be a book someday, so is everything I have written.

If you're wondering why it's called Ninety-something Tips for the Ultra Cool Teen, don't ask. It's one of the many things I have total control over.

So here. Read it.

Godaddy Review

Godaddy.com. The best domain registration service provider. Ever.

I have registered like three domains already through Godaddy and I've always been amazed by how fast my websites have gone up upon entering the DNS information provided by my host. The first one I registered was jiminabottle.com, which was kind of a personal website dedicated to my high school class and some other teen stuff like computer pranks and quizzes. The second one, a business website which I'm not telling anyone of you. The third, apparently, is this website. And it's been really easy to establish my web presence by initially registering a .com domain.

From the registration process, the only tedious thing there is that you have to enter information for four categories - shipping, billing, administrative, and I forgot the last one. So that means four names, addresses, email addresses, and more what-have-you to enter. You'd have to be some keyboard freak to not agree with me.

And then from there, it goes smoothly until the checkout stage. Your credit card information gets validated quickly, and the domain you bought is up and running in as little as 24 hours. Well, that's if you didn't get all the other services they offer, like mailboxes and hosting and shopping carts for business websites and traffic boosters and stuff.

The control panel is very user-friendly. If you can read, then you can use it.

The help section is very informative too. You get all the help you need. So unlike with i.ph, that you have to contact all their technical support crew, wait forever for them to reply, and then you're still left clueless about how the heck things should be sorted out.

Okay, so we're down to it. How much? It's $8.95. I even got my .biz domain for $4.95 because they were on sale when I registered for it. The closest price you can get is $14.95 from Yahoo.

Nope, I'm not on a referral program. I'm just giving Godaddy what it truly deserves. So click here, and have yourself a .com.

They Do Make Me Wonder...

I've always been keen at observing eminent yet not-so-thought-about things, and to them I don't know the answers. I haven't had much time to do research on them, but then, there's something that holds me back. This stuff is trivial to just about anyone, and trivial doesn't often elicit interest. So why bother? Anyways, here's the list that I came up with.

1.) Why do dying roaches lie on their back and twitch their legs?

2.) Why call Pork and Beans that way when there's no pork in it? Wouldn't it be better if they started to be a little more honest about their products by calling it Beans in Red Sauce, or Some Pork Fat and Beans perhaps?

3,) What, exactly, does corned in corned beef mean?

4.) Why do they have door locks at 7-11 when it's supposed to be open 24 hours?

5.) If you publish your blog on the web, why don't you let everyone at school read your diary?

6.) Why do cats chase mice?

7.) Why is the computer mouse called a mouse when in fact, it doesn't look like a mouse?

8.) Why did the BetaMax become obsolete upon the arrival of the VHS when the AV quality and size of the former is better?

9.) Why do people cover their mouth when talking on a cell phone?

10.) Wouldn't it be more appropriate to refer to the white lady as lady in white?

If you have answers to any of these questions, please let me know.

Rainbow Glow Steering Wheel: For Real?

I'll soon be buying this really cute APC 7-color LED fiber optic steering wheel, probably next week. It's kind of cheap (~$100 plus shipping), and it looks way hipper than the popular and expensive MOMOs and Recaros out there. What do you think?

A Week Off

This is me after taking exactly a week off. Nothing about has changed me. Loads of stuff happened, though. Oh, and posting a new entry has become trivial to me. That might change things a bit.

Hectic. Toxic.

That's exactly how to describe how life's been to me lately. A lifestyle combination of a part-time bowler, fanatical blogger, and full-time broadcast student isn't that easy to cope with. I've been working on radio and TV scripts, set designs, show concepts, graphics, creative presentations, all sorts of media stuff. So that means a lot of work, paper (I mean literally), and money to get them printed at Tara Lets at the UP Shopping Center. I'm also required to go training during weekends at Pearl (so that's Cainta-Parañaque-Cainta twice a week, a total of 80 kilometers added to my buddy's odometer). My blogging life isn't to be discussed now, since it's really obvious that with all my academic and athletic load, I haven't been able to write something for an entire week. But that's nothing to worry about. I've been through worse. Now you don't have to wonder why you can't find the June, August, Semptember, and October 2003 archives of this site.

To everyone who's been asking me why I haven't given much thought on having a love life, DO YOU THINK I CAN STILL FIND TIME? I think not. I can't even get a good 8-hour sleep. So leave me so alone.

If you call that ranting, let's give it some more.

My phone's pretty banged up. Last week I accidentally dropped it (on concrete ground) and that resulted in major scratches. I don't like my things scratched. And yet I was and am still thankful I was able to find it under my car. Moreover, GLOBE Telecom so sucks at customer service and stuff activation. My MMS got disconnected when my prepaid balance dropped null and now I can't send a friggin' multimedia message. So sorry, MMS mates. And let's not talk about GPRS.

Pedophile

So I'm back after a 3-day hiatus. I have been really busy with all my classes and my scripts and my teevee productions. School is totally toxic. I can't even find time to wash up before going to bed because I could hardly go to bed. I woke up some mornings lying on the couch. Ack, thank god I've been able to tuck in a lot of food in exchange for my lack of sleep.

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention my car's been really much of a headache. Everything in it has been breaking down and stuff.

I'm switching to Firefox now because IE6.0 has become really stupid these days. I can't open even my own site with it.

This entire day I was with L. I'm starting to really like her. She fits my ideal girl. Tall, fair to white complexion, funny, laughs a lot, uses her ears to listen, and super pretty. But she's only 14. Well, she's turning 15 this year, but she still is way too young for me. I don't know what I'm gonna do, but I'm making it sure she's not going out with someone else. I'm evil. And I'll be a friggin' pedophile if I go on with this.
