Why Do We Call Them SHUTTLECOCKS?
Friday, September 25th, 2009
I saw them shuttlecocks sitting on top of an office-mate’s monitor. Then looking at them, I thought, why the heck were they named after something funny like a COCK? Oh come on… you know what I am thinking. Every time the word is mentioned, we simply can not help but associate it with the thing. [...]
They Still Can Enjoy The Rain
Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009
Being an adult does not mean that one cannot enjoy anymore the stuff they do when they were still little. Although there are some etiquette (stuff governing socially acceptable behaviour) attached to it, rules as some may call, “how things are supposed to be” and many more “getting-old” thingy – the fact remains that they [...]
What If Stray Cats Have Scary Eyes?
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009
Well, I have these series of “stray-cat-shots” (which will be posted some other time) that I got every time we eat at the “carinderia” (I still do not know the english translation) located just right beside the office building. These cats constantly pass by between your legs in hope of getting a leftover meal afterward. [...]
Sauteed Pork and Pechay
Monday, September 21st, 2009
I just made it sound “SOSY”. Sauteed Pork and Pechay directly translates to “Ginisang Baboy at Pechay” hehe. This is one Pinoy viand you would see in almost all small “carinderias” because it is easy and cheap to cook. I really do not know what do you call “carinderia” in English. If you do know, [...]
A Yellow Flower
Sunday, September 20th, 2009
Taken along a street near Tycoon building at Ortigas while we were walking back to the office after taking lunch. Well, it is just nice to see some flowers and plants along the rows of cars and concrete. I always believed that nature and urban living can go together well. So I just wish that [...]
The Wonders of Photos Taken in Black and White
Sunday, September 20th, 2009
Isn’t it a wonder how a black and white themed photo can bring out so much emotion, feeling or drama. Or maybe it really depends on who looks on it? I guess the feeling may vary a lot. Besides, people have different opinions about a certain topic or subject. But if you ask me, I’ll [...]
The Ever Watchful Eye
Saturday, September 19th, 2009
You will see these things mostly in offices, shops, corridors, so on and so forth. They come in different shapes, sizes, length and even colors. But they all have one function – that is to keep an eye on you. Makes me remember a lot about the Lord of the Rings. Remember the “great eye” [...]
Ronald McDonald Origin and History
Wednesday, September 16th, 2009
Who would not be familiar with this clown who wears a “red-white-yellow” color combination outfit very much similar to their company logo? It has been decades yet little had this icon of McDonalds changed. Ever wonder where did he came from? By the way, for me, McDonalds pancakes and hot chocolates are the best especially [...]
The Secret Behind Jollibee’s Success
Tuesday, September 15th, 2009
For so many years we have enjoyed Jollibee’s langhap sarap goodness but we never really wondered how it all started. I remember back then that eating at Jollibee was considered by youngsters like me to be a very special treat. We will often be behaved and well mannered just so we could get to taste [...]
Tycoon Building At Pearl Drive
Monday, September 14th, 2009
No, as you can see it ain’t the whole building, but who would not recognize that red/blue color combination of a building. It looks like a big checkered board when seen on the sides. Tycoon Building is one of the most referenced buildings in Ortigas Center. It is located along Pearl Drive. Most of its [...]
I Wish The Rain Would Finally Stop
Sunday, September 13th, 2009
Its been raining non-stop for days now. I am beginning to feel depressed about the weather. Because last friday, I almost got sick going head-on with the storm just to get myself at home. Now it still continues and my reminiscing-during-rainy-days moments are over. I just want to share to you this photo here. Noticed [...]
Remembering Childhood Memories
Saturday, September 12th, 2009
I found her in a window somewhere near our office. I just like the colors, there is nothing to it really. Makes me remember a lot about our childhood.One of them is when we drew stuff when we don’t have something to do and brag about it with some friends. Also, the jumping rope makes [...]
