Kuya Andrew tagged me for this meme. First, here are the rules: - Each player must post these rules first. - Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. - People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. - At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. - Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog. I don't think these are really secrets, especially if you read my B L O G S. But here goes: 1. I'm a big fan of the John Lloyd Cruz and the Kaye Abad. 2. Although I was raised and have lived most of my life in Davao City, (it's painful to admit this) I was born in the City of Manila, at the Ospital ng Maynila. ARGH!!! 3. I don't like pink. Pink is not my favorite color but I have a lot of pink clothes, bags and other stuff because for some reason people insist on giving me pink stuff. 4. My favorite numbers are 2, 4, and 8. 5. My…

Pisay the Movie by Aureus Solito
When my friend told me about the Pisay Movie, I was apprehensive. I didn't know what to feel. But when I learned that Aureus Solito (of the "Ang Pagdadalaga ni Maximo Oliveros" fame) made the movie I suddenly felt ecstatic. The movie might not wholly reflect how my high school experience was, but I think it might be a good approximation. I haven't told anybody but it was my secret wish to make an indie film about studying in Pisay. Movie description: Amidst the chaos of Martial Law, eight teenagers in the top high school for the sciences discover themselves as they go through the joys and pains of adolescence. Part of the top 200 students from all over the Philippines who passed the examination for the Philippine Science High School, an institution created for the purpose of giving a highly-enriched education in the Sciences to exceptionally gifted Filipino children. Selected from the best and brightest from all over the country, they endure college-level courses in biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics from their sophomore year onwards. Those who can make it are hailed as the future science and technology leaders of the New Republic. They all learn, however, that they…
Love is a Gamble
As with most other things in life, love is a gamble, a risk. The bigger the risk you take, the bigger the pay-off or the loss you suffer. There are no guarantees, the odds are never certain, and most of the time, what you end up with is so much more (or less) fulfilling than you expected. The results assault all your senses, and it hits every part of you, physically, emotionally, intellectually, spiritually. Whether the outcome of the gamble is positive or negative, it leaves you overwhelmed, as if you've been ran over by a ten-wheeler truck.
Back in Business
...I hope. My laptop is doing ok na. I think... Back to blogging, surfing and working na. Huhu...
My Laptop Is…
...not working well. First, it would not detect the WiFi here in the office. Then, it would lag and hang. Imagine, even if mag-shut down na ako... may gana pa siya mag-hang. Ang saya-saya. I'm super worried. Magastos magpaayos. Huhu... And all my work depends on that laptop. Kahit ganun yun, mahal ko yun. Importante yun sa akin. I heart it. Huhu... I wanna cry pero what the hell... palabas na ang Harry Potter!!! My theory is... it conked out because I worked on it for more than 8 hours straight yesterday. Proud pa naman ako kasi it didn't "hang" yesterday, not even once. Not even if I was multi-tasking the entire time. RAWRRRRRR! Right now, I'm using my cousin's laptop. :(
Davao Gamers Blog
Yes. I know... I'm addicted and there's no point in denying in. Hi! I'm Ria and I'm a DoTA Addict! So what do I do when I'm addicted to something??? I make a blog about it. LOL! Introducing... Ria At Play! Chachaaan! My goal is actually to make it a community blog for local gamers. But since no one has expressed interest in joining me, it's just going to be me for now. So bear with me while I obssess about DoTA, tournaments, heroes, items, line ups, teams, match-ups and other related things and events. If you're a gamer based in Davao City and you wish to join me in this endeavor, contact me. ;)
