I cant help but notice that a lot of the cartoon characters I grew up watching (or read somewhere in the Marvel universe) are now coming to the big screen. You have Spiderman, Fantastic Four, Daredevil, X-men, Electra, The Incredible Hulk, The Punisher, Ghost Rider, what-else? Sure you have Superman but he was featured even [...]

Marvel’s Civil War
Posted in Comics on March 19, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
This is what I’ve been up to lately. I’m not sure if these were scanned comics or were released in digital format in the internet but it really got me hooked on the monitor for about 5 straight hours last weekend. I’ve been staring at the monitor and hitting the spacebar keys just to read [...]
Me and The Pursuit of Happyness
Posted in Movies on March 19, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I actually watched this movie last week. I decided to watch it because a high school friend told me he saw similarities between me and the main character.
I think my friend was wrong. I know I am determined. I know I find ways. I know I want to get into business. But there was just [...]

I have this transparent container on my study desk with the label “Roy’s Temporary FFA”. Everyday, I put exactly 5 pesos in it. And as the coins start to pile up, my room mate and one of my boardmates started to wonder what the hell is FFA.
FFA – Financial Freedom Account. Its money you put [...]

I no longer have core subjects (Theo, Philo, Polsci). One of my major subjects is also almost done. The only classes I have left are the ones about fiber optics and a computer networking lab. Since the computer networking lab only happens once a week using 2 hours or less of my time, the only [...]
A Crappy Movie called Pathfinder
Posted in Movies on March 14, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I tell you, dont watch it.
10 Reasons why.
1. Not much speaking lines.
2. If there were lines, you get corny, crappy ones.
3. Characters were not developed.
4. They introduce a love story that isnt believable.
5. You couldnt even remember the names of the characters and you just substitute them as tribe member number 24 or elder male [...]
Leonidas and his 300

I went to watch the movie 300. When I first saw the trailer I was having second thoughts about watching it. I know the story even before. I think I heard about it from Discovery channel.
Story: Persian emire expansion with Xerxes ruling. Leonidas defied. Then there was the famous battle of Thermopylae or the Hot [...]
DISCS Programming Open Proper

I didnt attend. I forfeited. Chickened out if you can call it that way. I did so because I had a practice session yesterday afternoon. It didnt go well as I had hoped. The problem was merely to convert radians to degrees-minutes-seconds. I already had the algorithm in mind. But I couldnt separate the whole [...]
DISCS Programming Open Preparation

Almost None! Here I am, cramming for this event. Why? I think I didnt give my heart out. I made a “yes” without my full resolve. Or maybe my resolve was just broken after knowing the type of problems that were given. I saw some programming problems about parsing, series, search, all of which needed [...]
Google Adsense

I made this blog to try out Google Adsense. I didnt really mind the terms and conditions. It turned out WordPress doesnt support Google Adsense and other contextual advertising stuff.
Hmmm..now I’m thinking of hosting my own web pages. I think it will be a great avenue for learning about content management and html servers and [...]
