the Challenge :D

its amazing where challenges come from... but just like all challenges, they are all welcome... challenges forces you to learn and to push yourself much much further :D

i followed these instructions and had to work for one hour... you have to finish this for one hour too... try it out.. its pretty cool :D

check this out. it's kind of fun, if youre really a graphic design geek:
1. Select the name of your band. To do this, go to Wikipedia and hit “random article.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random) The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2. Select your album title. To do this, go to Random Quotations. (http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3) The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3. Select your cover art. To do this, go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days.” (http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
) The third picture — no matter what it is — will be your cover photo.

4. Use Photoshop (or whatever) to pull it all together.

Blindness: Review

Directed by Fernando Meirelles, based on the book by José Saramago and co-written by Don McKellar for the screen play.

This movie is not for the faint of heart. It is gruesome but very very well made. As the little twists of story starts, it slowly captivates you and makes you left glued on to the screen. You get the feeling of it being too long but then again, the time you spend intimately with this movie is worth it. Scary, gruesome, realistic, and overall impact was superb. This movie will stay with me for a long time. I highly recommend this movie...

I give it a rating of 8.7/10 :D

Punisher: War Zone Review

I'm feeling a little random so i tried my luck on unusual movies this time around...
I got to buy Punisher, Blindness, and another movie i cant remember.. anyway.. this review is for War Zone..

Directed by Lexi Alexander and Written by Nick Santora, Art Marcum and Matt Holloway. The movie wasnt half bad.. infact, it was pretty well made when you look past the obvious edited gore in it. The story was simple and the twists felt natural. The ending was good and funny... but after two days, i sorta forgot the movie..

looks like the Punisher franchise is grabbing hold of their signature; alots of gore and simple story, What more can you ask for an action packed movie? :D

i give it a score of 7/10 :D

Aids awareness

Pardon me for the rap music but if you listen to the lyrics, it makes sense.. im not really a rap kind of person but when i heard the lyrics word per word, it was impactful..

here are a few facts about HIV/AIDS

-every 1min and 30 sec, we loose a person due to aids
-every 30 sec, someone new gets infected
-december 1 is world AIDS day

FLU season '09

 


careful guys, its flu season.

wahhh! been having this flu for quite sometime now.. eyes feel VERY tired. They even sank alittle. And i have been having hallucinations and massive head aches.. I wanted to get a vaccine but i stumbled into this...

According to statistics, January, February, March and May are the highest number of flu cases. Although there has been wide spread of flu vaccines in many areas across the world, the problem with such a promising vaccine is that the flu is composed of several strains of it. just think, there's a new strain of influenza every season. Manufacturers usually take about 6 months for a particular strain before they even have a vaccine ready...

guys, be careful... its flu season :D

Quick Escapes

  Lying to the "Authorities" isn't that hard once you get used to it... the only thing was, I WASN'T USED TO IT. So as i made up stories of an extravagant photo shoot near Asin road, the "Authorities" were starting to get curious and incredulous with the idea. But, as their new found openness to give their voluntary blindness, it has darkened their eyes once more and allowed me to have my own saunter plans.




  So, by the hour of 9:30, I was on my way to the city, La Union. However the heat might scorch my skin and the sun might glare my eyes, i need not to care about the abundance of reasons as to why i would travel the miles to see my loved ones. I arrived, dropped of infront of a smart telecom company, and was picked up Drin and Maki .Soon after, we were headed to the house of Drin to meet his mom and see Maki's girlfriend. It was pretty interesting how everything turned house.. Somethings were unexpected while some were unbelievable. As i arrived at their house, i had to comment that i have something things that i want to modify. the placement of the furniture seem to have been left there in that position for quite sometime. And to tell you the truth, i can feel that they actually want to rearrange the furniture's... That's one of the reasons why as of right now I'm planning the rearrangement of the house :D



  After about 3 hours of intense card games, food, and talk, we finally decided to have some beach fun. A private beach on the way to Navy Base in San Fernando. I can tell you right now that it was very nice, quiet place for friends or even lovers. its still under construction but the water and bar is well worth the 15 min trip to the area. The water was cool and clean, waves - not so huge very calm in fact. Deciding that it was a good idea to take good pictures in that place, just to have proof that such extravagant beach photo shoot. Then TADA! we have these pictures :D hope you viewers would enjoy :D


  In order for the title to be realistic, we had to go by 6pm but as any other Filipino would be, we ended up leaving at 7pm. We said our goodbyes and the usual stuff before heading off. Arriving at Baguio around 9pm, I arrived at home without leaving traces of the quick escape. But i was checking the mirror now and then for the sunburn on my skin :D hahaha good thing im not getting darker now...


ps... i got no shots of myself.... didn't like them at all..
