The Tiny One

I just got back from my trip to Bohol for work and rest wasn't part of my Saturday because as soon as we docked at the port I headed straight to the office and emailed away my report.  I wasn't up for additional work on Monday so I had to write down everything that happened so I don't have to rack my memories when it's time for me to report. I went home at around 8pm and headed straight to get ready for another Saturday.  I wasn't prepared to sleep this Saturday night out because friends from BCD just arrived and I don't want to spoil their Saturday night by not showing up.  They are after all the people that I will be spending my August rush and September fever with :D  (I CAN'T WAIT!) I saw familiar faces at the place where we had drinks in and I even saw my uncle's friends! Talk about awkward! Then again, it's a Saturday so I guess there's an excuse to get crazy:)  I just hope he doesn't say anything to my uncle!:D  ...

Jack Daniel’s has been my favorite drink for over 7 months now and I still don’t get it.  It might be the Jack and Cola mixture, as what we all know about coke, it’s very addictive (I’ve been a Coke addict since the 3 rd grade).  I even have a bottle of Jack in my room! Talk about being alcoholic.   So I did some research. Wait.  I’m still about to do some research.  I can barely concentrate on doing so since my friends and I are having some of… wait for it.. JACK! Okay, so far, this has been what Wikipedia has been able to tell me Old No.7 : Also known as Black Label, this is the original Jack Daniels. 80 proof. Gentleman Jack : Charcoal filtered mellowed twice, compared to once with Old No.7. 80 proof. Single Barrel : Whiskey sourced from a single barrel in the company's warehouse. 94 proof. Tennessee Honey :  A standard Jack Daniel's combined with a honey liqueur. 70 proof. Green Label : A lighter-bodied bottling of Old No.7., not ava...

My awesome friend just turned 25! Or 26?! How old is he really? I'm so sorry Anton! I just think you look really young for your age! *wink *wink :) Sometimes I just completely lose track of how old my friends are, oh well, forgive the young one. I wanted to rest for the entire Saturday night and sleep this one out since I finished everything at work at around 10:30 and was feeling really sleepy and tired.  But,NOOOOOOoooOOO, I just had to text Anton a happy birthday and a greeting of how I hoped he'd enjoy his celebration! HAHA. So the text messages and invites came flooding my phone and boom! In 10 minutes, I was on my way to Crossroads to Izakaya and celebrate with the dudes and dudettes (baduy noh?haha) When I got there I missed how innocently fun they could be, and after 30 minutes of drinking the birthday boy was already ready to call it a night of GOOOODNIGHT:D Happy Birthday Anton B! You are such an awesome friend.

Working in a definitely bland environment is bringing out the minimalist in me.  It's not about the way I dress, that thing would be something that would never change.  I'm getting into the whole direct to the point marketing thing going in my head right now.  When I started, I had all this crowded colorful set of ideas that In want to cramp up in one layout, but my boss is the black and white thing so he better likes it if it's something easier to understand.  Besides, our target market is not really into the whole creative and intellectual point of advertising.  This is the first time I've encountered this, I got used to the previous advertising firm I was with before that is full of wide and intricate ideas, here, it's different, I have to think simply so that others can understand. ().() Oh well, it's not that I hate the job, I kinda like thinking and stuff, this job is making me run out of bright ideas!  I'm famished! haha. ...

If you're an amateur on graphic arts or any of that sort and you need to whip up a layout or something on the last minute then continue reading :) The easiest ways to conjure up a CLASSY LAYOUT are: 1.  GRADIENT background. Notice the difference a fade in fade out transition makes in a video? A gradient background is the same thing.    It makes it lighter to look at and easy for the eyes. 2.  A SIMPLE font. A simple font is important to send the right message.  Fonts with a lot of curves would only be distracting and hard to read. 3.  DO NOT USE BORDERS. If you are about to put in pictures and the like, avoid using borders.  It would make the whole layout heavy and solid.  Remember, we are looking for the fastest way to finish a layout without making it seem like it was done in 10 mins.  Making a border would be time consuming. 4.  USE 3 COLORS In order to avoid thinking of any other color to fit your layout.  Use neutral...

**no pictures available Let me tell you a story about my good friend, Bread. Once upon a time Bread decided to go to Solair to gamble and play with fate. He had some drinks.  He won some games.  He lost some money.  He ran out of some sanity. He laughed and played and won and lost until it was 8am in the morning. Realizing the time, he went home. He wasn't alone though, he was accompanied by his friends. They bought some more drinks.  Went home to continue  They continued on drinking and laughing until 2 in the afternoon. When his friends left, Bread felt so lonely and bored. He didn't know what else to do and thought, why won't he just visit his friends, Bird and Princess is the other island. So off Bread went to the runway. When he got to the tower looking really drunk and red, he was asked by the Flyerette if he was okay and offered if he be given some assistance. He said he was though and opted to insist that he di...

There are times when you miss college. There are just TIMES when you just MISS COLLEGE! The sound of that 12nn prayer. The sound of BATION's voice in class. The reaction to hearing BACADON's name. The endless hours to sleepless nights and drunk memories. Worth it. Would die for it. Would not want to repeat every mistake made of it. But NEVER REGRET it. The whole experience is far greater than anyone can imagine. Everything is worth fighting for. Everything is worth getting excited for. This batch. Is one hell of a batch to remember. :D

Ever notice how things can be awesome when they're unplanned? Saturday was suppose to be a chill night that would compose mainly of 3 people with a bottle of Jack. I wasn't really in the mood for the typical Saturday night so I just stayed in my room and opted to hit candy patterns with my phone.  Yes. I'm shallow that way. Candy Crush.  Who could have guessed I would even be interested in the game?! More on that silliness later. So I was warming my ass in bed while concentrating on the best game on the planet, my friends Ronald and Iggy calls me up and tells me we had to go out. They insisted.  I change.  Went downstairs.  Got in the car.  Arrived at the venue. We started the night with a 750ml bottle of Jack.  Chill night.  YEEESSSSSS... for a moment. as soon as the clock struck 12mn, my friend Hara arrives unexpectedly waiting for her brother to take her home.  So Ronald grabs an empty glass with ice and hands her a glass...
