FHM Hunting + Unli-Chow

Since our scheduled appointment at Robinsons Galeria was canceled yesterday, we decided to go to Robinson's Place Manila instead to spend the rest of the afternoon there. 

It was me and my fiancee who went there just hanging around the mall, looking for cheap buys (btw, she prefers affordable clothes as opposed to the expensive ones). 


Then we went to booksale to get some magazines there. I was able to get a hold of FHM's 2 latest issues, the Sept 09 issue and the third installment of the ladies confession (celebrity diaries).  Everytime i buy an FHM, she gets to read it first before I do XD. She was also able to buy a hardbound book for only 35 pesos (sobra nga talaga ang kakuriputan ano po? XD). 

 

Then for Dinner, we settled at Chowking located at the 4th floor. I was curious with Chowking's unlichow since it offers various dishes that I mostly liked. Since she doesn't eat much, I was the one who got the unlichow. For me, it was fair enough though since I had more than enough of their pork spareribs, beef siomai, breaded fish fillet, spring rolls and their canton guisado. If I could give my feedback to their manager, they should have simply put all their menu in their buffet. that way, they would earn more. ^_^

After dinner, my taste buds craved for dessert. We just shared Dairy Queen's rocky road and spend more time before heading home. ^_^

Simply Boring


I was supposed to go to SM Marikina to attend a carshow there sponsored by Genix. But I don't know what hit me and decided not to go there. Ewan ko ba pero bigla na lang ako tinamad at nagoonline na lang ako dito sa kinakareer ang Mafia Wars. hehehe. Ewan ko ba kung dapat ba akong manghinayang na hindi ako nakapunta dito samantalang sobrang layo ng lugar. XD 



A few weeks before, my friend Richard texted me regarding another event that was held at Tiendesitas. It was another carshow plus with Playboy Covergirl Grace Oracion. I asked some of my friends if they will pass by that place but most of them passed. Ewan ko ba pero more than 2 events na napalampas namin this year. Though we love to attend events not just to meet celebrities and have our photos taken with them but too see old and new friends as well and exchange stories with them. We may have missed some but we know there are more to come ^_^

It is finished

I never imagined uploading at least 25 albums would be so straining that the average number of pictures per album was only 6-10. What more if i uploaded all (including blurry pictures). That was three weeks worth of photoshooting almost all aspects. Now I have 14 albums for editing this time. XD

Uploading Time Again...

Well I have 25 sets of photos to upload today. That would be at least three weeks of shooting various subjects (both human and non-human). 

If you do have time, visit my other site at markpogi.multiply.com (btw, you have to be my contact to view some of the pictures ^_^).

Be back later ^_^

Top 10 Most Annoying People on Facebook

I just passed by this site since I remembered something about the most annoying people in facebook on the news. I couldn't help it but to agree to some extent. This came from the link: (http://thatssofetch.com/2008/09/top-10-most-annoying-people-on-facebook)

Enjoy ^_^



Facebook was the greatest social networking site ever when it originally launched in 2004.  There was no mini-feed obnoxiously “updating” you with irrelevant information and no high-schoolers or parents.  With the new facebook and an even further step in the wrong direction, it’s still the people that make it sometimes unbearable.  I can’t hate on Facebook too much though - TSF does have a facebook group.  I even have a Facebook profile myself - but I can 100% guarantee I do not constitute one of the people on this list.
Out of the say 500 friends you have on Facebook, you probably care about maybe 50 of them.  Seeing updates every 30 minutes from your first girlfriend in 7th grade is something I know I love logging in to.  It’s funny how much people think we care about their lives.  Why else do you think we enjoy movies so much?  Because the average person’s life is a bore-fest.





10. 1000+ Pictures Self-Tagger
picturesTagging yourself in a picture is acceptable to a limit.  Use your discretion.  But having 1,000+ pictures of yourself is not only lame, it’s unequivocally narcissistic.  We know your cool with your 2,000+ friends list - we don’t need to be reminded by 1,000+ pictures of you standing in front of your mirror striking poses and eating dinner with your friends.

9. Parents/Teachers
http://thatssofetch.com/images/professor.jpgTo quote Mean Girls: “seeing a teacher outside of school is like watching a dog walk on its hind legs”.  Getting a friend request from your Geology professor is not only creepy and unsettling, but it’s annoying.




8. Embarrassing Photo Tagger
embarrassingRespect people’s privacy.  We’ve all been there:  hammered and unaware there’s a camera around.  Don’t act like you haven’t passed out on a toilet naked with a German hooker once or twice.  It’s just common decency to not plaster these images across the internet of your so-called friends.



7. Internet PDA Couple/Kissing Profile Picture
http://thatssofetch.com/images/kissing.jpgI can’t even begin to express everyone’s disinterest in your love life and seeing you playing tonsil hockey with your lame boyfriend.  But I guess anything is better than your past few profile pictures including a beer bong, short skirt and keg stand, “finger in the mouth seductive look” or a combination of all three.



6. Creepy Guy Who Somehow Figures Out Your Last Name
http://thatssofetch.com/images/adder.jpgThere should be some sort of friend adding rule.  It’s extremely taboo If I meet you in class and only told you my first name, then I get home to a friend request from you.  This immediately earns you a spot on my “creepy” list because you obviously searched for my last name for hours on my network search.


5. 30-Minute Status Changer
http://thatssofetch.com/images/status.jpgJANE DOE is walking my dog then meeting the girls for lunch!!!”  No one cares.  Is that difficult for these people to understand?  Your life isn’t interesting and people on the internet have no interest in what you are doing today outside of saving a baby from a burning building or developing a cure for cancer.


4. The “Kissing Face” Girl (a.k.a. “Pucker Face”)
4a. Gang Signs
http://thatssofetch.com/images/pucker.jpgEvery picture you take you pretend as if you are kissing someone.  Why?  I’m not sure.  Is this sexy?  No, it is not.  Maybe you’re self-conscious about your lips not being full enough and you overcompensate for this by puckering up in all of your pictures.  And the gang signs have got to go - you’re a 19-year-old Caucasian female from an all white suburb in a Sorority - trust me, it’s not cool.



3. On-And-Off Relationship Changers
http://thatssofetch.com/images/relationship.jpgIt’s funny when people think that we care if you are still in a relationship.  This goes back to the “your life is boring” theme of this post.  You aren’t famous.  You and your boyfriend aren’t J-LO and whatever marginally talented guy she’s boning.  If you and your boyfriend/girlfriend are on and off, do us a favor and  just leave your relationship status blank.


2. High-Schoolers
http://thatssofetch.com/images/highschoo.jpgYou shouldn’t be allowed to have a social networking page until you are 18.  Getting a friend request from your 13-year-old cousin or having your younger sibling on Facebook is just obnoxious.  It’s kinda like walking into a 21 and up bar - we don’t have to worry if the chicks are 18 or not.  Same should go for Facebook.  It’s a win-win.



1. The Philosophical/Political Note Writer/Political Propagator
http://thatssofetch.com/images/political.jpgPolitics are annoying enough in person, but some dude from my freshman year English class waxing political is extremely dissatisfying.  Writing a note every 2 days about how Obama or McCain sucks isn’t going to change anyone’s opinion - it’s just going to further solidify your place in life as an arrogant asshole.  This goes the same for the people who create political groups and send invites to everyone on their friends list.  I appreciate the enthusiasm - but leave your political insights at the proverbial internet door.

Still Learning



I just signed with both blogspot and wordpress to learn the art of blogging. Though ive been blogging for quite sometime now in multiply (http://markpogi.multiply.com/journal: only contacts can view this ^_^ ), both of these blogging sites seems alien to me. Probably in a sense that it has a lot of twists and turns and some pros and cons as well.

Probably it will take me a while (around 6-8 weeks) of constant blogging and getting to know both blogging sites before I would get used to them. I do like reading blogs from friends and strangers but I'm quite skeptical if I could keep up to them (in terms of using their respective sites) as well.

Worst comes to worst, I might choose between one of them, even I wanted to use both.

Testing (first timer here).

First time to make this piece of s**t and I'm not sure where it would lead me. But anyway, welcome.
