I was already contented with our current SkyCable subscription since I seldom watch television, but my brother thinks otherwise. I guess you can’t blame him – being an NBA enthusiast, of course you’d want to view the best of the best. And what’s the best? That full high-definition television experience, of course. So we subscribed [...]

The time finally comes to sell my current desktop CPU in exchange for a better and stronger one. It’s only been less than two years, but you know how technology is. I mainly used this for dual-monitored multimedia production with Windows 7 64-bit versions of software from Adobe Master Collection CS5 (Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, Encore [...]

When I have my axe in hand, nothing really gives me as good a time when playing metal music. That adrenaline rush, that burning passion itching to explode in heavily-distorted guitar gallops and double-pedaled mayhem! After years of inactivity with our college cover band Sacramentum (watch a gig here), we finally hit it off again. [...]

Being the nocturnal creatures that we are, my siblings and I always crawl out of our den on the wee hours of the morning to look for some grub. Given the limited options of still-open establishments that we have to choose from, we’d almost always end up in Mcdonald’s, Burger Machine and 7-11. But hey, [...]

The more I got to play with the DualShock 3 Wireless Controller for the PS3, the more I grew weary for my thickly-wired USB gamepads for the PC. It gets really irritating in the long run, considering my room’s structural design. Each time someone goes in my room, the people playing on the couch would [...]

Get your hungry bellies ready for Treffpunkt‘s eat-all-you-can German sausage buffet! This goldmine of a restaurant has been around since 1986, but I guess they don’t like to advertise much. I only got news about this after my sister told me about it a week ago, but I’m definitely gonna bring my friends here for [...]

I tried something new today, and just like the title says, it’s about 360-degree panoramic pictures and teaching you guys the basics of making one!  I’m no expert, but I guess my first try wasn’t so bad (I think!?!) And because of that, I’m gonna share to you guys the rundown! Who knows, this could [...]

Pop Culture Crusader Tim just informed me via Nerd Herd PH about new footage in YouTube regarding the upcoming super-awesome live-action movie adaptation of Rurouni Kenshin (Samurai X)! Apparently, the video is derived from a Japanese local channel’s show where they briefly featured the movie in a segment (characters, cast, staff, etc.). And what do [...]

Okay, here goes the first part of my Japanese Romaji Project! If you haven’t read the introduction and purpose of this certain endeavor of mine yet, read it by clicking here. Introduction | I | II | III | IV | V | VI | VII | VIII | IX | X Anyway, let’s start [...]

Hello, internet people! Out of my wholehearted interest in the Japanese culture (and watching too much Japanese-dubbed anime), I’ve decided to take personal notes and research on learning the Nihon language via the Romaji route – the romanization of Japanese wherein the language is written by utilizing the Latin script. In short, roman letters. Introduction [...]
