It is human nature to look to the past... to the road we have traveled... to what has so far defined us... but only by leaving our past behind can we then push onward into an unknown tomorrow... into the dawn of a new future... into the light of a new beginning. Excited ka na ba? Ako super excited na!!! RAWRRR! Warm, fuzzy feeling... :D

Is it Acceptable to Diss Differently-Abled Persons?
I am now at a local cafe, drinking tea and enjoying free WiFi while working online. There's a group of people here who are unabashedly and shamelessly dissing differently-abled people out loud. They are mimicking the way people with a cleft palate talk. And it's really disturbing to hear them laugh out loud and make fun of the differently-abled. I'm no saint and I must have, at some point in my life, made fun of them too. But at this point in my life, I don't think that doing so is acceptable and tolerable. Do you?
DotAStrategy.com Shirts
Ria / RJ aka Polar aka Gongju and Gwing aka Kwala aka Cong Chua During the Kadayawan DotA Tournament Finals, my cousin Gwing and I wore our DotAStrategy.com shirts and a lot of people were green with envy. I've been receiving a lot of queries regarding where and how they can buy/get the shirts. Ah, eh... There are only three of those shirts: mine, Gwing's and Kuya Andrew's. But don't worry DS fans, Kuya Andrew and I are already working on having the shirts printed, so well can give/sell it to those who want one. Abangan...
Sick!
I am sick. Yesterday, I already had a headache so I took one paracetamol. Lo and behold... I am allergic to paracetamol so big blotches formed on my eye lids and the area under my eyes. To make matters worse, it became hard to breathe. So I had to take both an antihistamine and an asthma medicine. GRRR... I just slept the entire day today. Woke up at around 4 pm and now I'm working na ulit. Already feeling better but not yet 100% well. I am already allergic to mefenamic acid, ibuprofen, and aspirin... ngayon naman... pati paracetamol. ANG SAYA-SAYA!!!
Another Reason to Advertise Online
According to Synovate's study (as cited by the Philippine Daily Inquirer), web advertising is more targeted than advertising through cell phones. According to the article, the research shows that: 1) "people go online for a reason" 2) 70% of internet users are willing to give out their email ads for promos 3) however, "mobile phones have lower barrier to promos and advertising than the Internet" 4) “research suggests that 20 to 29 is the best age bracket for Web advertising” So what are you waiting for??? If you product or services are targeted towards the 20 - 29 age group... advertise online, it's relatively cheaper, and apparently more effective. :D Related post: Why companies should advertise in blog
