AdieuBAD NEWSThis might be my second to the last post here. No. I'm not yet retiring on this blog thing. Nor am I be leaving webdeveloping. I might be putting Blogger aside for a while. I'm in search of a new server as of the moment. Who knows? I might still go back to Blogger. I really can't tell. GOOD NEWS I'm moving to a new site! It's version 4.0! Yes!

Lessons For TodayFresh from the review class...err, the horrible travel home, I say. This stupid headache is bugging me since lunchtime. Maybe from all those formula and equations I have to get "reacquainted" with. I think this is migraine, whatever. What difference does it make? They're both annoying and it hurts! Dang!Things that made my head hurt even more. (or did it?)1. People have different

Another Sketchy DayHere's another of the sketches. It's my spectacles. See? It's a result of all those rays from the PC and the TV that I've willingly accepted. And I think, I really need it now. I'm on my way home. I just fetched some files from the cafe and had it sent to Hon. The business plan still needs revision and honestly, I never thought it would be such hard work. *sigh*. Just click on

Creepy HitI'm not superstitious or anything. Doesn't it feel kinda creepy? Well, it's trivial, matter of fact, but what impeccable timing it has been.

Sketching FrenzyHere it is! I was on the mood to sketch the other day so I seized the inspiration with two hands. It's been quite a long time since I got hold of my sketching pencils, luckily it turned out well...oO(Drop the chair, Bob! Mabigat yan!). I was so engrossed with my sketching I forgot to eat lunch.But then again, I felt good. I'll be adding those in my gallery, which, by the way is

BlogCrazyJust chanced upon other people's blogs whose links I found from the main page of blogger.com. One particular entry I was amused about is this lady's: The Nipple Blog. Ladies. How could they be so conscious about their.. ehem.. that thing. It amuses me. This lady is quite funny, actually. Read on her entry about Free Bird! Free Porn! ... Haha! What an imagination.A comic strip from a cool

Too Late a Hump DayI just checked my inbox a while ago and found Humpday's questions. It's kinda late to answer but then it's already wednesday the day after next so I'll just get it over with. Call it an advance entry, or sumthin. Anyways, here it goes:1)What is your passion in life?--The only thing I am REALLY passionate about is not being passionate.*teehee* (What?) I am by nature, a very

Woke up this morning with the dang phone ringing and an annoying lady on the other line. Sheesh! But since I'm ever so courteous (..duh!), I tried to sound nice with her 'til she hung up. She wanted to talk to my brother but he was elsewhere, somewhere I know not of at that time of the morning. After a couple of minutes or so, she called again and, boy! she was as annoying as ever. I wonder what

TI'm a walking zombie. I just slept for three hours and here I am, scrambling for some sensible thoughts to put in here. Quite a task, I must say. Hohumm... My thoughts are really jumbled as of the moment so forgive me if I'm not making any sense.By the way, just to keep myself convinced that my site update is still in progress, I managed to make a teaser to remind me of the work that still needs

ChroniclesAndamidami kong gustong isulat dito sa blog na to. But then, pag isusulat ko na, lagi kong naiisip na..."Wag na lang...". Hindi kasi ako yung tipo ng tao na madaling mag-open up sa iba (to the tune of that good`ol Nescafe jingle...). There are things about me that I can easily share with somebody. Pero mas marami pa rin yung di ako kumportable na sabihin. I always think want other

Walang PamagatGusto kong magtagalog ngayon. Wla lang. kakapagod kasing mag-isip pa kaya isusulat ko na lang lahat ng nasa isip ko. *** Isang cute na story mula sa makulit kong pamangkin. Kaninang umaga, as usual, nagkulitan na naman yung sister-in-law ko tsaka si Russel, yung pamangkin ko. Kasi ba naman, ayaw magpalagay ng pabango/ cologne. Kasi sabi ni Mommy nya dapat maglagay ng pabango para

Nuthin' MuchI don't have much to write about today. Lemme'see.Finally, after three straight days of being cut-off from everything that feed on electricity, AC, that is, the really-clever yet damn annoying MERALCO decided to repair our line last night. At long last. Imagine, we are leg-deep in flood waters and no electricity; even the phone was not functioning well. All you can do is eat, sleep,

On VacationI'm taking an indefinite "vacation". Not a very long one though. I might still blog from time to time but not on a regular basis. I'm kinda "busy" .oO(Busy-busy-han .. :D). It's taking me a long time updating my site and blog. Not quite as I expected. Whew! So there. Please do check out from time to time. :D I'll miss you guys!

New Domain NameI just tried my luck and checked whether the domain name, "sko.tk" domain name is not yet taken. It turned out that the domain is a special domain, so I would have to pay for it. As much as I would like to have it, I also wouldn't like to pay for such. Besides, what would I do with the domain name aside from having to boast with it? I'm not using it for commercial purpose so it's

Anime NationI tried my luck and submitted an entry in the FanArt section of the site Anime Nationand I was surprised that it took a relatively shorter time for them to upload my entry. Cool! It's nothing fancy, though. Anyway, there's always room for improvement, aight? Please, do check it out.

Entangled Dendrites/ Rotten NeuronsI was actually halfway on finishing this entry about my "plans" for a layout but I realized it would be better if I'd just keep my big lousy mouth shut for the moment. So I changed the entire entry. *poof* Don't try asking me what it would be like, because chances are, I would just spill the beans. Besides I don't know how long it would take to actually finish

AdvisoryWhew! Just a week of vacation and I'm back to school. Got to fix some things for my much anticipated graduation *crosses fingers*. Next stop: Review for Board Exams. It would cost me 8,500 bucks for that. Arrrgghh. Lucky me, I got a very generous sister (I don't know for how long, though) but then again, untiunti ng numinipis ang mukha ko . D hiya na ko *blush*.

Once an Addict...I miss the ganda-gwapo board. *sigh* I still visit the board, though, yun nga lang, hindi na ko kasing active magpopost the way I used to. Thanks to smoke and Yannick, my "tatay", na nakapansin sa elusive presence ko kanina sa board. It's still nice to feel na may nakakaalala pa pala. :) ..oO(*Syet! Ang drama mo! :D*)

Matrix ReloadedI chanced upon the Matrix Reloaded trailer that the Studio 23 News Central shown, a couple of nights ago, but it seems I'm not yet over it. I just want to see it one more time, or perhaps a couple of times more. I'm too excited to see the next installation of the movie, just like most of my friends, and I bet you, too. We are forced to wait 'til 2003, though. Ahh, the agony of

FiveThe Force is not with me today. I just found out that my efforts ...uhmm, did I make any?...didn't take me to where I wanted to end up in. Just a measly 5 points and I'm out of the clutches of that damn subject. I could've been exempted from the final exam if I didn't mess up on the last. Too late. I will have to make do with the final exam instead and hope I'll get a passing grade.Think I'll

SwollenGot an itchy, swollen tonsil. Not in the mood to write. Disoriented. Stat 101 exam, very tricky. Got the difficult problem solved, but messed up on the easy one. Such an idiot. Haven't watched Episode II. Don't feel like watching today. Very sleepy. Hungry, (again? just had burger and fries an hour ago). Had another Strepsils. Drowsy.

Surprisingly, (or was it?) I got some pretty suspicious email from somebody, whom I don't even know, and don't wanna know, in the first place. But then again, the email has one of those melodramatic formula you often see when you turn the TV on and switch the channel to you-know-what-goddamn-network-that-is. And, so, I was even on the brink of sending my reply, had I been one of those cheesy ..

Believer The last time I went to church was when I was in third year highschool. I was raised on a Christian background, but somehow, somewhere along the way, I just drifted away from it. I'm not an atheist, though. Not yet, and I hope I won't be. The mere thought can be really scary. I'm not reluctant to even call myself agnostic because at this point in time, I really can't assess my stand to

I took some quizzie that I accidentally ran into. I love "Trainspotting" so I immediately took the test, hoping I would be Mark Renton, my favorite Trainspotter. And here's the result. *with a huge grin plastered on my face*Which Trainspotting Character Are You? Oh, well, except for that heroin thing. :D

Wishes I have my father's face. That's what most people who knew him would never fail to mention. I wouldn't know if that was true. I derived my limited memories of him on a 10inch-by-14inch framed photograph. A photograph which was not even an original since my Lola only commissioned someone to paint it from an ID picture of his. All other memories were gone as if they wanted to purge all the

Some fucking day. With such terrible hangover, I woke up before noon, apparently, not to get some decent lunch but just to bum around. Somehow, I lost my appetite. It's not simply due to the alcohol I drank, the night before. I'd like to think that was the case. But I know, it wasn't. Oh shit. This one's really pissing me off. Tried as I could but those grim images just keep on popping inside

Remember this personal essay I wrote way back sko blog project version 1? I took the courage to submit this to our college paper, for the literary folio, which is due by the end of the summer. As much as it pains to read this one, especially for me, I just wanted to post it just one more time. understand that in doing this, I am actually holding back my tears from falling. (Geesh! Damn it you're

Not a good day to begin with. I think I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. All those days ... err nights of sleep deprivations are finally kicking my ass. It feels like 12 hours of sleep is not enough. Ahhh, I can still feel the warmth and softness of my bed. Those huggable pillows... Just one of those lazy afternoons I used to have back home. Damn it! I almost forgot I still have a class.

Ah! Here it is. The fruit of the loom. sko's blog project version 3! The script is not running the way I planned it to be, though. I don't know why it's not working. It does when I'm editing it in MS Frontpage. Hmmmm. But hell! I'll deal with it later. So, what's with the layout? Actually it is inspired by my favorite Playstation/card game, Yugioh! It's more like a cross between Pokemon and

These are from an email sent to me by my honey. Actually, it's a chain letter of sort, which, for some unknown reasons, is what she seems to be doing each time she's emailing someone. I dunno. Well, she has a lot of friends, kasi, that's why there are a lot of chain letters filing up her inbox. Hmmm, I'd like to think of it as her own way of sharing, even in the mail. :) . I know she'd be killing

Uh-oh! My script is still bugged. Whew! I'm quite tired of fixing it, so I'll just leave it 'til.... uhmm.. next week, perhaps? I dunno. I just want to take a break with all the HTML codes. I'm "almost" satisfied with the layout. I said, "ALMOST". :D. It's quite okay for now, but I dunno. Maybe my roommate's right. Once you've made your site, you'll just keep on fixing this and that; or change

Finally! Yey! Finally! Natapos ko din ang bago kong layout! The layout was inspired by the website of The Other Half (the TV show). :) I'm still thinking about changing the pictures especially the accented parts. The main image is a pic of my favorite artist, Robbie (the bad boy!), I just modified it a little bit. What I like most in this layout is the scrolling, because it doesn't take much

still no luck... waaaa.. ang hirap mag debug ng scripts. napaghalo ko yung java and yung html. tuloy ayun. ayaw magwork. One thing, di ko maupload yung *.js file at yung *.css, hay. kaasar. gusto ko kas yung may scrolling para tipid sa space. okay na sana eh.. kaya lang... grrrr.... hay... break muna ko. refresh muna, baka sakaling okay na mamaya.

i'm working on a new layout. hope it would turn out just fine. but i'm afraid i would have to "borrow" images from other websites. that would be illegal i know. but with this blogspot i think that would be the only option. unless of course i would buy me my own domain which is uite impractical ... you know what i mean... :D . anyway i'll try signing up to the webhost that armina recommended. the

Easter SentimentsIt's Easter Sunday!... Just like any other Easter Sundays... The only thing that's quite unusual is the constant bombardment of the news from the picture tube of the death of Rico Yan, the wake, and all that stuffs. You know, the usual things that people do when a celebrity dies. Why can't they just let the grieving family on their own? Well, maybe that's the price you have to

I took the Flavor test as smoke recommended and this is the result: I taste like Beef. I taste like beef. I'm probably made of beef. You are what you eat, they say, and if the title didn't mean something else, I would be a beefeater. I think red meat is good for you. Puts hair on your chest. What Flavour Are You?

I'm searching for an MP3 of one unfamiliar song which I really really like. The song is Earthbound by Conner Reeves. No luck yet. Either the MP3 site don't have the song or if they do have one, the link is broken. I first saw the video on MTV and I immediately liked the song. Favor naman. Kung sino man ang meron ng MP3 ng song na yan, pedeng pacopy?.. Thanks a lot! .. and I mean.. a LOT. :D

Seventeen I died when I was six. But my body still lies in state for nearly seventeen years. It still does; inside of me, away from the prying eyes of other people; lurking in the darkest, coldest part of my memory. For seventeen long years my body has kept its silence, while occasionally wreaking havoc in my psyche. It seems he doesn't want to be left forgotten. I know I should have a long
