Long Weekend Goals and Early Weekend Treat

Posted by Mikko at 30 November 2007

Category: Blogging, Personal

It’s a long weekend, thanks to Andres Bonifacio.

So it’s a long weekend, so more time for blogging! Damn, I forgot to send the list of research materials to Tomi.

Yes, more time to blog. So my goals for this LOOONG weekend are:

  • to create a new blog theme,
  • to start blogging on a specific niche,
  • and to make at least 5 posts (not including this one), in which 2 of them will be a future (scheduled) post.

Today, I didn’t spend a lot of time blogging as I expected. Me together with my cousins went to my late uncle’s resort, Brod Louie Resort at Glan, Sarangani Province. I have posted about this resort more than a month ago, you can check it out on my post Weekend Trip: Glan, Sarangani Province.

Expect a some (konti lang) pics after the jump. Continue reading “Long Weekend Goals and Early Weekend Treat” »

Another Coup de Etat?

Posted by Mikko at 29 November 2007

Yes, another coup de etat in the Philippines.

I am not that knowledgeable about this, just heard it from ate Ria Jose in a chat conversation. Indeed, history repeats itself.

I also asked kuya Jehz about this, and he said it was true. He added that employees in Makati were already sent home as battle tanks were all around them!

Here are some news articles about the incident (sent to me by Ate Ria):

UPDATE: Read kuya Andrew’s blog (Alleba Blog), read that they have their website hosted at Bravehost (matapang dapat) -> http://sundalo.bravehost.com/.

8:25PM UPDATE: I pity the owner of Manila Peninsula. Its so cool to see buses and battle tanks inside a hotel. Only in the Philippines! Hahaha. Anyway, I feel bad on how the media was treated. Their expensive equipments were confiscated by the authorities without giving a receipt which is an SOP.

Am I Too Dumb?

Posted by Mikko at 24 November 2007

NOT AN EMO POST. ;D

Scenario: Computer bugged down. Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) appears at startup after Windows XP’s Welcome Screen. Loads smoothly on Safe Mode.

Their Action: Checked bootlog.txt. Discovered that drivers did not load correctly. Checked the drivers, status is installed properly.

Their Plan: Check registry keys at registry editors.

Everytime I’m in this kind of incident, I get so intimidated (If I can’t solve the problem myself)! I feel that I’m a sore loser or something! I know those commands too, but why can’t I do what they do. From an error, they easily trace the poroblem. Then just a few seconds of recall, they can identify the exact problematic (!) registry key and type it in console from their mind. What the heck, how could they memorize those registry paths.

Damn, I forgot that I dreamt to be a programmer and not a troubleshooter! With my really bad memory, I think I can analyze better than recall. Anyway, analyzing is always better than recalling. Sarap silang sabihan, program nalang tayo! Yabang ko!

Weird post, I admit that. I’m a frustrated writer, so please bear with me. ;D

NOTE: If you feel that I am referring to you, don’t worry. It happens to me often, with different people. ;D

Say Hello to a New Blogger

Posted by Mikko at 24 November 2007

Simpleng Tao…Simpleng Tao…

Say Hello to a new blogger, say hello to Gerwin John D. Rodriguez! Gerwin has been a good friend of mine (although I’m not that good with him, hehe) since Grade 4. We’ve been schoolmates for 8 years now, that’s a long period of time.

He has been blogging for barely a week. He started at Multiply, and just recently made a big switch to Blogger. His blog, Simpleng Tao…, talks about anything that comes to his mind. He’s on his way to a successful blogger, he uses images in his posts more than I do! Mukhang tatalunin ako nito, joke lang! I like reading his blog, he has a simple yet colorful readable layout.

I believe that he started blogging because of me (together with his measles). I have been telling him all about my blog life for a pretty long time. Minsan nga naiinis na siya kasi blog ko nalang ang lagi naming topic!

Sige, bisitahin niyo na ang blog nya, ang Simpleng Tao…

Bagong Gupit, Bagong Web Application, OSI Model

Posted by Mikko at 17 November 2007

Category: Internet, Personal

Hello.

Pagpasensiyahan nyo na po ako, namimiss ko na kasi ang magblog sa wikang Tagalog. Mahigit dalawang buwan ko na rin iyong hindi nagagawa eh.

Masaya ako ngayon. Bakit?

Uhhhhmmm, kasi nakagawa ako ng isang web application? Ganun na nga. Wala lang. Ganun talaga ako pag nabobore, biglang naiisipang magprogram. Mas okay naman iyon diba, kaysa magdrugs! Yung pinrogram ko pala, para sa First Screening Results ng Pisay na nirelease kahapon. Similar siya sa official results web application ng Pisay System, mas maganda nga lang ang akin at mas flexible. Hindi naman talaga natin napipigilan ang ating galing, diba? Hahaha. Ito nga pala ang link, bisitahin mo naman para makita mo rin ang aking kagalingan. Nga pala, PHP at mySQL gamit ko dun.

Uhhhmmm, kasi bagong gupit ako matapos ang apatnaputwalong araw (48) kong pagtitiis na sa aking huling gupit. Maikli na ulit ang buhok ko, yey. Noong ginugupitan ako, napansin ko na medyo naiintindihan ko ang alien language ng barberong gumugupit sa akin at nang asawa niya. Kaya naman pala eh, nagiIlokano sila! Wow, minsan lang kasi ang ako nakakarinig nang nagiIlokano sa GenSan eh.

Uhhmm, kasi nabalikan ko ang OSI Model? Hahaha. Napagusapan pala namin ni Batang Yagit ng Davao ang OSI model, geek stuff. Wala lang, out of the blue inisa-isa namin ang pitong (7) layers. Ang saya, diba? Haha. Hindi nyo yun alam noh? What? Hindi mo alam yung application, presentation, session, transport, network, datalink at physical! Hahaha, wala akong magawa. Kayo nalang bahala magresearch tungkol nun kung gusto nyong malaman. Tas napagusapan din namin ang Advanced Windowing Toolkit at Swing ng Java. Tas umabot kami sa PIC at 8051. Saya diba? Hahaha. Nakadrugs ba ako?

Ano ba ‘tong post ko na ‘to, pwede na pang ABSTRACT REASONING. Hehehe, nasa first screening yun ng Pisay. Kung mapapansin nyo, nababawasan ng tig-iisang ‘h’ at ‘m’ ang Uhm ko sa kada talata. Ang saya, hahaha.

Waaaaaa, wala akong magawa. Salamat sa pagsasayang niyo ng oras sa pagbasa ng post na ito. Weeeeeee, blog ko ito walang makekeelam. ;D

Google Reader changed my Bloghopping Behavior

Posted by Mikko at 14 November 2007

Category: Blogging, Internet, Personal

Last Sunday, I started using Google Reader. Google Reader is a feed aggregator web application just like NetVibes, etc. In my most nontechnical definition, it is an online application that manages your feed subscriptions (if you don’t know feeds, you should not be reading this). It’s interface is just like your email, you are notified of unread posts and marks itself read once you read it.

I admit that it is a great timesaver. Before, I used to subscribe to only a number of blogs enough to fit my Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar. Only the titles were displayed on my Bookmarks Toolbar Live Bookmarks so I have to view every blog to read the content. Now with Google Reader, I can read multiple blogs in a single tab (I’m a Firefox person) without having to open them one by one.

The result: I’m starting to rely with Google Reader. Since RSS feeds contain only the post, I miss the chance of reading other bloggers comments and visiting their blogs. It could limit me to my current subscriptions.

Resolution: Try not to rely on Google Reader. Revert back to old behavior which is checking each blog of new posts. After hopping through my daily reads, that’s the time Google Reader comes in to check for posts I missed.
