Time flies so fast. We are already at the second half of the year. Goodbye summer and hello rainy days. I’ll place here some rant posts and some good posts. Let’s start with:
Rant posts:
Item 1 – People exposing their lives improperly (a.k.a blogging at the wrong place)
Blogging nowadays are the “in” thing. You get to share our thoughts, opinions, ideas, etc.Blogging can also be considered as the new form of media for aspiring and veteran people out there. There are such sites as WordPress, Blogger, Livejournal, Deviantart (just to name a few)
But what happens when some people (i won’t be dropping names for their privacy) do blogging at the wrong place? Where you ask? Cellphones (as group messages) Bulletins (Friendster, Myspace, Heck even e-mails) i mean come on guys, it’s nice of you telling us what are you doing, how have you been, and what are your plans in the coming days, but please, please do place it in the proper place where it belongs, a blog space over the net.
Item 2 – Effectivity vs. Cheapness
I have been playing fighting games in the arcades (let’s face it, i still need to relax once in a while and this is my channel. plus, it’s somewhat keeps me updated on what’s new, which is in return, needed in my job as a game developer.) I have been playing Tekken 6 for quite sometime and just like what i rant in the early iterations of this game, the cheap shots keeps on coming in.
For example, alot (and i mean alot) of them keeps on doing the same combo over, and over, and over, and wait for it….. over again. I mean come on, some say doing combos are effective to keep your opponent down (which i agree) but when it comes to the point of doing it for what, the “REST OF THE FRIGGIN GAME” well, that has got to be lame. To all the players out there, i have nothing against you guys, but please, don’t waste you time playing the game doing the same old cheap combos over and over again. It’s not healthy for your skills, rather it makes you dull. I tell you guys!
Ok, Rants over.
Good posts:
- David cook you rock! in case you didn’t know, i made a bet on the finals of American Idol this year. The bet, If David Cook wins, i get 200 pesos plus 1 shot of an Airsoft pistol on the butt of my opponent (which i’ll remain unnamed, i salute you man, a good sport) but if David Archuleta wins, he’ll be doing the same to me. Man, what a good bet
- After winning a bet, here comes the losing part. Kim (my officemate) and i made a bet between the Spurs and Lakers (where in he really adores kobe bryant) so i go for the spurs. Unfortunately, i lost the bet. arrgghh…. that’s ok… Lakers will crash and burn in the finals… hahahahaha!
- Been to Mugen bar last Friday night (with Charie and her friends) and we did have a good time.
- On to pitches on game designs (for what are the, that is the big secret) but nevertheless, they are interesting games.
- Waiting for Kung-Fu panda to be shown in theaters. I’ll watch it with her. ^_^
- Will be getting Death Cab For Cutie’s new album, Narrow stairs (yes pony, im buying the original one. The album is worth it.)
- Also waiting for these albums: Ang bandang shirley’s debut album (which i heard will be titled “Thmesongs” according to their multiply page), Sleepwalk Circus, Itchyworms, Weezer, Asian Kung-fu Generation and more.

Posting stuff about the work place is a no-no… but it’s become a trend with some of my colleagues. I’m avoiding it but I’m getting tempted as well. =)
