Bamboo. Singapore. The Arena @ Clark Quay. August 31, 2008.
Long time fan, first time concert viewer.
Bamboo songs are heavily rotated in my iPod. Can’t wait to see them live.

That’s the consensus in the interwebs these days. Version 9.0 is already out and it is a staggering 33mb download compared to version 8.0’s 22mb download. Acrobat’s installer is just getting heavier and heavier.
I’ve been using FoxIt reader even before version9.0 went out. It’s a very decent alternate for mighty Adobe. Light and compact. It gets the job done and no useless crap installed within it.

I sported a very bad headache this afternoon. I had meant to meet with an academic today, but by some fate issue (don’t ask me what I mean, I know I’m cryptic, I’ve been told many times) we ended up in two different suburbs. So anyway, the headache. It literally felt like my head was a tree trunk with two axe blades wedged on it. I spent some time walking in Parramatta streets to get some air. I ended up spending a lot of time in a shop called JB Hifi.
It’s mostly an electronics shop with all the merch I can look and handle all day. Today I hovered over PSP games, DVDs, CDs, earphones, headphones, desktops and laptops.

Teddy enjoying new beddings! Back to girly flower prints =)
What isn’t evident in the photo is the electric blanket. I would struggle in snowy winters, coz with weather below 10 I am already dying in the cold! I seriously can’t sleep without socks, which is irritating =( But well, enough with the ranting and back with the nicies =D I found some throws with really loud colours, and thought i’d bolster the mood level in the bedroom!

UP naming mahal. Maligayang araw ng iyong sentinaryo. Sayang wala kami ni Pen dyan sa Pilipinas. Pihadong lalahok kami sa iyong pagdiriwang. Sobrang dami ng opportunities ang binigay mo sa amin. Dahil sa iyo, nagkakilala kami ni Pen, nakatapos ng undergraduate degree, nakapag-aral ng graduate courses, nakapagturo sa UP Math Department, nakakilala ng mga kaibigan at ngayon nakapangibang bayan. Maraming salamat sa yo at patuloy kang maglikha ng mga iskolar ng bayan.

Bought a Computer Chair a few weeks ago from Ikea. Every furniture bought in Ikea is a DIY kind. So the consumers are expected to build their own chair, table, cabinet, drawers and even bed frames.
So, I started with these:
and ended up with this:
Successful! Hehe. First chair I have assembled in my entire life. Now I only need a table to match the chair.

My official last entry from Pinas before I moved here and my first entry here in Singapore.
The first year is not a rollercoaster ride that I expected it would be. Surprisingly, everything went fine. Much thanks to my cousin Nandy and wife Cia for adopting me for two weeks while I was waiting to transfer to my condo.
So for the record, I stepped foot into Singapore since Apr 29 and started work on May 2 2007. I have been in the same company and just renewed my work pass for another year. The only thing that saddens me is that I haven’t been able to save as much as I have hoped for. That goes without saying, that I have been spending and enjoying life. I’ve been to Australia, brought Pen here twice, went back to the Philippines once, brought a DSLR and some lens, paid off loans and some other things that needed money to enjoy. No regrets though.
A view of our condo.
Been staying in the same condo for a year now. Friends keep on telling us that we have a great deal with our current condo. With the rents going up with no end in sight, we are currently secured with a 2 yr contract at a ludicrous cheap price. Housemate and I are praying and hoping that we can finish the contract and the owner won’t sell-off.
Pen and me walking off towards the rear exit of the condo compound.
Cheers to me that I have secured a spot here in the IT outsourcing country.

It’s been a long time that I am really into playing my PSP. I have been playing Puzzle Quest since forever. Then I tried Patapon a week before God of War is to be released and when I got a copy of God of War, Patapon was pushed back again. (Patapon is a good game though. I’ll play it again once I get tired of Kratos).
Been playing two straight nights before I go to bed.
These are my screenshots. Notice Patapon and Puzzle Quest in the background
Kratos!
