The Commission on Elections is poised to do a non-binding pilot test through the Internet for Filipino absentee voters in Singapore, ABS-CBN News reported Wednesday.

A mock election with 14,000-15,000 registered voters will test the effectivity of the Internet voting system from July 20-August 8. The mock polls will have names of Philippine national heroes as candidates.

“We will show that Internet voting is completely secure, less costly, user friendly and accurate,” said COMELEC Commissioner Florentino Tuason Jr.

my officemate, Sherwin and I saw the movie yesterday and twas 100% awesome with two thumbs-up … the story is not that intricate like other TV-Series we recently loved to watch (eg. 24, PB, Heroes, etc.) but from a Transformer-fan point of view!? it was KEWL!!! I recently overheard na magiging trilogy din ito which uso nman ngayon sa mga movies dba!?, hehehe … pero when kaya next? after 2yrs cguro, waaaah … nagulat lng ako a bit that when we watched it sa GB3 na hindi mn lng napuno (80-90% lang of seats lang were taken) pero looking from a good point of view!? … I’m so glad na hindi coz I enjoyed watching the movie with ease and comfort kesa yung nagssiksikan kayo, dba!? hehe … just imagine sa weekend, yikes!

last February my iPOD-mini ceased to exist as its battery is DEAD! waaah … it almost broke my heart as I really love my iPOD-mini and twas been with me since 2004 … anyway, I kept it in my drawer and been inquiring AppleCenter for replacing the battery but twas too expensive as they quoted about 3-4k for the battery and would take probably about 3weeks to fix it, yikes!!!

yesterday I bought from a friend (longbeard) a battery replacement kit for the iPOD-mini (with the tools) and was able to replace it w/o a problem though I dented the top while pulling it off which is kinda acceptable for me, hahaha … anyway, nkatago nman sya so no problem which the most important thing is that I was able to revive it again and walking my way home from the office listening to songs that would let time passes me by

btw, all pictures were taken using Sherwin’s new Nikon D40 cam which is really kewl … just see the results

[ Sometimes I wish I wouldn't forget how you were ]

Sometimes …

I feel that each day carries me away from you. Among the things I hold dear are the memories I have of you. But with each minute, new memories with new people are made. Sometimes I wish I had a memory of gazillion gigabytes where I could store every little detail so that I wouldn’t forget …

Cosplay, a portmanteau of the English words “costume” and “roleplay”, is a Japanese subculture centered on dressing as characters from manga, anime, tokusatsu, and video games, and, less commonly, Japanese live action television shows, fantasy movies, or Japanese pop music bands. However, in some circles, “cosplay” has been expanded to mean simply wearing a costume.

In Japan, “cosplay” as a hobby is usually an end unto itself. Like-minded people gather to see others’ costumes, show off their own elaborate handmade creations, take lots of pictures, and possibly participate in best costume contests (from Wikipedia)
