I got this mp3 from an officemate. The moment I heard its intro, I just knew that I'm gonna love this song. Great voice and great riffs, lots of pull-offs and hammer-ons! But damn, he's one ugly bugger... hehe. Play link to youTube video.

It has been a while since I've posted some sense in my blog. Somehow I have not had any reason to post any though a lot of things have changed and even things are changing right now. First of which is my transfer to a new role:It's not a promotion. One of the managers asked me if I was interested to transfer to her department. "Hell ye!," I thought. It's just a lateral transfer from my currently

There I was taking a break from work. My head really hurt so I had to do something else besides documenting my freakin' project...I glanced around my desktop and found my iPod. Hmmm... it has been a while since I've updated the Album Art of my recently downloaded songs (yes, yes yes. I admint I'm one of those iPod-freaks who wants all songs to have the album art and title).

Light grenades! Incubus' 6th album! This 13-track album was released late last year. For me, it's one of their usual cool music blend of Brandon's ever-elegant vocals and Michael's catchy guitar riffs. I particarly like "Dig", "Love Hurts", "Earth to Bella" (parts 1 & 2), "Oil and Water" and loads of other upbeat rock songs. I listen to this album on the way to work to get myself hyped for the

Everything is just not in order this week! And it's just Wednesday!First, my slide phone got busted. Its screen blacks out when I either slide up or slide down. Sometimes, the screen turns into tiny bands of all colors you can think of. To say the least, it's still functioning, I just can't see what I'm doing. Worse, when someone texts I can't read the damn message. Worst, when someone calls I

Last Sunday, I had the opportune time to visit and get to know her dad. I was supposed to wake up at 6:30 am but lo, the clock said 8:00am. Taking a quick shower, I raised to get my ass to her house. Just in the nick of time, when I got there everyone else was ready to go. Lola had her umbrella, Sister carrying the Scrabble board, Mom holding on to the picnic basket and my girl waiting and

This is supposed to be GAC's 4th and last training climb for the year. They say it was one of the best climbs ever, albeit there were only 7 of them. I wasn't able to make it because I had the flu and I don't wanna risk it even though I already felt better.

The NBA, my Cleveland Cavaliers...Today is the last day of the season. Chicago and Cleveland are forcing themselves for the No. 2 against the No. 5 spot. Whichever got the higher winning percentage, of course, gets the top seed. The Cavs are 1/2 game behind Chicago and currently at 5th. Whichever is 5th gets to play against Miami (4th) in the first-round of the playoffs, and I don't want that,

When I came back from 2-week long Xmas vacation, I was greeted by one of my office mates. She asked me if I could play the guitar for our company's Annual Globe Awards 2006 as opening act. This anticipated awards night honors leaders, teams and projects who have made great impact on the success of the company. It's a formal event attended by our CEO and top executives within and outside Globe.

Last week was a very, very, if I may say, interesting experience. I have been marathoning a TV series and somehow it confirmed and contradicted "very common" facts that we encounter in our everyday lives or in those we encounter by surprise. Take these for example.Fact #1: Everybody lies. White lies, or honest-to-goodness lies, lies are lies, whether planned or instantaneous.Fact #2: Everybody

Not only did I wear a medal around my neck, I also happen to have the top score around my belt--a whopping 172! Hehehe.Okay, okay, some of you real bowlers out there might look down on this score. But mind you, I rarely bowl and it's not one of my regular sports either. I just happen to have found my

If we were only just a point ahead, we could have landed 3rd place on our cheering competition (Yep, ala-Eng'g Week!). And held up 150 points instead of only a hundred. Oh well... but not bad for having to practice only 2 days, all of which were done after office hours! =) So what was my role then? Cheer dancer? No way!

Three days ago I was searching across our corporate network for something interesting (Isn't it obvious that I'm still not motivated to work? ;p). I landed onto one of our servers and voila, a goldmine of installers, ebooks and mp3's! The most interesting part though are the chillout mp3's.There was this one particular song that overly relaxed my already-steady mind. hehehe. The sound is so

I haven't been doing any much work lately. The long list somehow seem scribbles. I just don't have any motivation. So... to kill time, I tried modifying my blog. Hehehe. Talk about free time. Anyway, I added some new sections, mostly of my interests. I'll keep the sections updated as often as possible... or add some more sections... but then it'll get too crowded, and I'll have to modify it again
