Oh No! It’s June Already!

Now that only eleven days are left before school begins, I still haven’t prepared anything. I still don’t have the school supplies that I would need like notebooks (Corona and binders), ballpen (0.5 or thinner than that), paper (yellow pad and Corona bond paper), and other things that are essential for students. Well, I’m not really inclined to get back to school because school is hell, moreover, college is fatal. Lol.

I’ve got three reasons why I don’t want to go to school, on the top of the list is that I don’t want my course. Two, I would have a new set of classmates, I still don’t get it why they had to reshuffle us. And the last one is that I hate my schedule.

Here is a preview of my schedule: M 9:00am to 3:00pm, TTH 7:00am to 5:00pm, WF 9:00am to 5:00pm. That means, I would be spending more time in school now, and by logic, you’ll also get that I would be spending less time in surfing the internet.

It’s time again to share to you some delicious links that I’ve dugg from digg.com and del.icio.us.

  • There’s a new feature in Google Maps called street view, we can now tour the streets of San Francisco, Las Vegas, Colorado, New York and Miami without leaving the comforts of Google. Sure, there are other sites that offers this same feature, but I think this is better because you can have a full 360° view of a particular place. You may also want to read this funny article about the top 15 Google street view sightings. There was this one who was caught trying to break into a house, and this one shows two girls sunbathing. Lol!
  • Before my vacation would end. I want to do this. I can’t still believe that you can calculate the value of pi by just throwing frozen hot dogs! It sounds crazy but it looks like it’s true.
  • Did you know that CBS bought Last.fm?
  • Another must-do for those people who are still stuck with dial-up (and even those people with a broadband connection but want their browsing experience a bit faster), hack FireFox.
  • This is so amazing: Microsoft Surface. I want one! Lol.
  • It’s official, Google has acquired FeedBurner.
  • This one is not yet on digg.com and del.icio.us, but you should know this, especially if you know Neil of es2pido.com. He won a notebook computer, a digicam, and a whooping PHP 100000.00 from Eat Bulaga’s On the Spot. After reading and knowing some facts about his life, I can say that he really deserves it! Oi! Neil, balato naman jan! I can give you my bank account. Haha. Lol. Joke.

Lol. No, I don’t have any plans on starting my own podcast, you would not want to hear my voice. I’m just doing some wordplay. But then, it would be great if I can have my own podcast.

[EDIT] Finally, my new layout is up. I’ve lost count of how many themes that I’ve already used, so I don’t know what the version number of this theme is. My codes are valid (except for CSS) but I still think there are few bugs out there. So if you found one lurking, please report it to me.

This theme is a bit, shall I say, thinner? It’s a big mistake. I should have made it a little more thicker. The photos that I posted here won’t fit on the content part. And now, I can’t do the necessary tweaks because I don’t have a decent graphics editor installed on Snidget. And the computer where Adobe Photoshop CS2 is installed is on haywire-mode. (I have other options that’ll solve this problem, though I prefer doing the option that I presented here, I don’t have any choice but to look for an alternative solution.)

It is 800×600 pixels (and up) friendly. I tried it with both IE7 and Mozilla Firefox but it looks better with the latter. [/EDIT]

Publicity

Have you heard Alyssa Alano’s “Keys Me”? I heard about this in the news ages ago but I was only able to see and hear the video (with lyrics) last Monday. If you have not seen it, here is the video (brought to you by YouTube):

Actually, the title of the song should be “Kiss Me”. The rendition of Alyssa Alano was a very bad one. It has full of wrong pronunciations which makes it funny. In one way or another, because of this, people from other countries will have the notion that we don’t know how to pronounce correctly. But I admit that; Filipinos are not good at pronunciation! Please, don’t be offended. This is just my observation and opinion.

What more if you’ll add the accent?

I don’t know if this “Keys Me” is just a publicity stunt or if she does not really know how to pronounce words like beneath (v-neat), shoes (shoez) and fireflies (parflays) correctly. Mind you, if it is supposed to be a publicity stunt, it’s good for her! She became (somehow) famous because of this hillarious video.

Publicity stunt or not, it’s really hillarious. And this one also proves that Filipinos can still laugh in the midst of many problems. So keys me! Lol!

Oh, I want to plug my deviantART account. Please visit it and look at my gallery. Thanks! Actually, I’m getting addicted to it lately because of the new version of deviantART. And speaking of version, this site is still stocked at version19.5. I have not made a new layout yet. Besides I’m very busy and I’m having a layout block at the moment.

I just also want to announce to all Amazing Race fanatics, the next season is just around the corner. Lol! I can’t wait!

[EDIT] New layout! Woot! As you can see, the new layout features personalized postage stamps. (They’re just fictitious.) I’ll describe some of the pictures that are depicted in the stamps:

  • Restricted Mind: My first ever column. One of the two articles I wrote for this column is available here. (Last column, third row.)
  • SLRCSS: The logo of the school that I entered for thirteen years! (Last column, first row.)
  • EQ: Economy o’ Quality?: Our finals for Social Study is a documentary. I had a great time doing it! (Fourth row, columns three to five and second column, third row.)
  • Apung Manalangin: Click here. (First column, first row)
