Looks Like We Made It

I'm referring to my ballpen which I was able to consume to the last drop of ink. The Barry Manilow song comes to mind cause "we made it." To put it in a clearer perspective, I have a higher probability of misplacing and eventually losing a pen than consuming its entire ink capacity.My ballpen ran out of ink while I was at KFC...

Wishing For The Wishing Well

A couple of weeks ago, I went to Pampanga and exited at one of the reststops located along the North Luzon Expressway stretch. After taking a break, I noticed that there was a small pond near the other side of the parking lot. Exemplifying the usual exploring tourist, I went there to take a picture. From afar, I saw the sign "drop a...

The Dollar Series

I regularly visit local money changers whenever I need to have US dollars exchanged to Philippine peso currency. It's usually a quick process. Give your dollars to the teller, get a receipt for how much the peso equivalent is based on their current exchange rate, and get your pesos. It's that simple.However, recently, I've been frustrated with the fact that some money changers...

Driving With Fuel Economy And Efficiency

Nowadays, the prices of gas are really expensive and it seems that it's not going down in the near future. Unleaded gas in the Philippines goes for around P45.00 per liter, which is more than 1 US dollar.I think that instead of trying to find sources for inexpensive gas or hope the prices go down, it's practical to own a car that in...

Typewriter Keyboard

I've always been a fan of computer modding, the art of transforming a boring computer case into an interesting form of art. Whether it may be character or movie themed like Alien vs. Predator, Finding Nemo, 101 Dalmations, Counterstrike or a kick-ass original design like infusing a lava lamp and aquarium in your cpu case, the possibilities are endless. I found this mod...
