There was a time when people would gather together at the dining table and enjoy everyone’s company with good food. Now, most of the netizens (myself included) have this penchant for capturing their gastronomic adventures. Last night, I wanted to take pictures of my macarons just because they’re just so pretty & yummy. Too bad […]
Poor autocorrect! I think most people expect it to function like a mind reader. Well, the bad news is, most of us are not cyborgs (except for that guy we saw on Discovery Channel / Nat Geo was it and (insert other facts from Google here)). More after the jump 😉
We won! We mostly stayed home the past two weekends and we were glued to our laptops chasing deadlines, fixing the site etc while the TV was on. (Exciting, I know. *sarcastic*) There were a lot of competitions lately: the recent local cheer dancing competition, the local intercollegiate basketball league (i.e. UAAP) &
Replying to e-mails is probably already a part of our system everyday. Sure, we answer social networking comments, tweets, text messages almost immediately (although this is still debatable) but why do some people (including myself) seem to take forever when replying to e-mails? I use my inbox as my to-do list. I read somewhere that
Commercial Jingles! Ahhhh!? Last night (well, midnight actually), a commercial jingle kept playing inside my head while I was trying to finish something. It’s not just your ordinary jingle, it’s a rap from a mobile company who has loads of money to buy all the spots on TV, radio and wherever else! Well, it’s one
“What if social networking actions were real?” Part 2! What if you opened your social networking accounts on your birthday only to find out that the greetings were not written on your Facebook wall or Twitter feed but on your real wall? Have you noticed how people conveniently ended conversations by liking your comment
Sorry! “I’m sorry”, said the serial apologist. Now and then, I’m always told how apologetic I am saying sorry for the things that I shouldn’t really be saying for. It’s almost the default start of my sentence. It’s as if I’m subconsciously apologizing for my mere existence. Hehe. I don’t know how many times I’ve
Just look at how people bond these days! Well, this is how people bond these days. Yes, I actually thought that one day, I will eventually run out of comics about the internet. Well, they’re all mostly here. There are tons about social networking: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, chat conversations, internet connection, wi-fi signal…I could go
Tips on How to be More Productive Productive. That’s how we pretty much want our days want to be. Well, I’m sharing these tips not because I’m the most producitve person that you’ll find. Actually, I wrote this down as a reminder to myself. One day, I was able to go through lots of documents
I have an app for that! “I have an app for that!” I think we’ve been over-reliant on app these days. Tell me how many days you can go without checking your phone for any social networking update or opening an app? Go to restaurants, cafe’s and wherever else and you’ll find a group of
Stop copying me! “Stop copying me”, Ponggo would tell me. One of my hobbies / purposes in life is to annoy him. 😉 Ponggo loves using my phone for games and once he’s done & the battery’s mostly drained, he gives it back to me and asks me to charge it for him. Instead of getting
“They don’t like me.” It’s easy to know how a person sees him/herself based on his/her explanation to that statement. Others will wallow in sorrow and go for, “Why don’t people like me?” Some people will even go further by asking, “What is it that I have to change so that they’ll like me?”. Someone
The value of honesty in a relationship has been stressed so many times by older people and a number of magazine articles and talk shows. Then again, there’s a very fine line between being honest and being brutally frank. The other night, I told him that he was
You Just Did: Isn’t it amazing how people say that they’re not going to tell you anything when by doing so, they just did? People also ask permission to ask a question when in the process of doing so, they just asked a question. It’s like asking people to respond to your question “Are you
Lessons Learned: (This post is dedicated to our good friend Aina Banana who gives the best advice ever! Low fat milk for the win!) If you’ve been following our blog, you will see that as a couple, we have our great and not so great days. Usually, we argue but now we just keep quiet
Big Gestures: Well, there are different types of gestures: kind gestures, romantic gestures, iconic gestures then there are the big gestures that I make–the awkward kind. I end up hitting the people behind me or beside me. I usually end up accidentally swatting a stranger while walking backwards and talking to someone in a crowded
I don’t know how many times I’ve been through this cycle: 1) I find myself saying yes to a friend’s / ex-officemates’ request 2) I feel happy I’m helping them & that it’s another opportunity for me to learn new things & experiment with arts, props, pictures and colorful things I love. 3)
A Gazillion Times First of all, my source of happiness today is the fact that I’m finally able to include those colorful washi tapes as (part of my useless) props behind Tipsy! I don’t know what is it with washi tapes. Staring at them makes me happy. (Me & my color fixations…) I think I
