I don't even know how I stumbled upon this. I think I was trying to get my powerbook to print thru a printer connected to my new hp desktop. ANYWAY, ang galeng! Basically, over the last few hours I found out that I can actually CONTROL my powerbook from my windows pc (and vice versa). I didn't think I'd be able to do this but, as you can see from the picture, I was able to figure it out! Anubeh. Geeky moment.

We're having another weekend of snow. This has been a really weird winter. It felt more like spring. But then everyone missed out on it cause everbody thought that it wouldn't last. Ayan tuloy. Spring na talaga. Like our boyband pose?

This isn't actually a picture of Chris2. It's a picture of the SHOWER CURTAIN that Fabio used to cover up his bed. Course it didn't stop this kid from rolling around it.

First pic of a set. Fabian and I had a party a couple of weekends ago and here are the memories. A party isn't a party until it is blessed by.. uh.. Jesus' tongue? Chris Franzen plays God the Son yet again.

Euh, where's Winter?

Yet another unbelievably beautiful Boston day today. This is so weird. Kasagsagan ng winter. No snow. Something's up. Hey I checked my sitemeter thing a while ago. OOOOOOO. You who vieweth my page from the cozy confines of your Albington, Massachusetts suburbian home... WATUP?!. This is fun. I feel so naked. Euh.

Noche Buena '05

My first Noche Buena alone...sort of. Siyempre di papayag ang Pinoy maging mag isa sa Noche Buena. My friends and I congregated at Bambi's house to celebrate Christmas (sort of) Pinoy style. This is NOT our Noche Buena. It was our PRE Noche Buena.

Si Tonyo Nuong Pasko (as sa bawat natitirang araw ng bawat taon)

'Bout time I write about Anthony. I've been meaning to add more "friend portraits" on here but somehow I just can't seem to get a perfect picture of him. Finally, over the Christmas weekend, I was fortunate enough to have been able to take this candid shot of Mister Morris. It pretty much says it all. Bem is all about Joy. Not Joy CORTEZ. Joy as in that little welcome butterfly in your tummy. This man must have been born with a smile on his face. It seems that it's all he's gunning for in life: make everyone happy. You can hear it in his music too (a teacher who once proclaimed that Anthony had the L.A. sound missed the point entirely). His music has humor, a transcendental quality to it that could lift the spirits of a hobo during a snow storm. Okay, that was bad. But YES. Happiness, Joy. That is what Anthony brings into our lives. He's the only other person I know of that can make people happy by talking about his bowel movements (the first one being me of course). Oh, and that he gets GIRLS by being funny and sweet IN NO WAY DIMINISHES THE VALUE of the happiness he gives. It really doesn't. Seriously, it doesn't. 'Di nga.

Noche Buena '05

THIS was our Noche Buena.

siteMETER CHANGE

Ayan. Jeline convinced me to revisit this little nook of mine. I'm in the process of installing a site meter. I just want to keep track of how often people read my blog. And by people I mean: Carlo, Jeline... and me. Haha. Oh GP...

Thoughts off the top of my head:

1. I do not wake up conversant in English. The other day at the admissions office (where I work), I found myself struggling to form a basic sentence in English. That I was trying to tell a joke made it all the more embarrassing. I still ended up funny though. You can't not make people laugh if your punch line is "...the lyrics on the Pocahontas ktv video goes: You think you own whatever land, YOLANDA."

2. I can't function without my iPod. I realized this months ago but I've been meaning to blog about it since forever. I wanna go home and tell you about my song of the day. Cause I always end up having one.

3. Our final project for General Psychology is all about flirting. We're supposed to observe people flirt and describe the processes involved in determining WHY and HOW they flirt. Should be interesting.... especially since I intend to publish my observations on here. Office space flirting in sexual harrassment suit weary America is VERY ENTERTAINING.

SONG FOR THE DAY:

Serenade for Strings by Edward Elgar
sweeping, luscious, classy --- very Boston
