Meet Corrine

   Posted by: GC   in UltraElectroMagnetic Blog

I got his habit of giving names to my stuff that means a lot to me. From my guitars to my computers and other gadgets that I bought. After my iPod “G” and “Eleanor” (C2Q) desktop last June 28, 2009 we purchased a Compaq CQ40-340TU from Asianic, SM North EDSA Annex branch. I was just planning to get the CQ40-108TU which was on sale at that time. Unfortunately the last laptop was sold out because it only cost 19,995.00PHP on Silicon Valley, SM North EDSA. They told me to go to Robinson’s Pioneer to check if they still have it available. This is a dual core laptop with 2Ghz processor that is more than enough to get the job done for my freelance work. They’ve sold 6 units when I got there and the last piece will be sold on a cheaper price since it has a small crack on the battery case. The store manager or whatever they call him left Silicon Valley Robinson’s Pioneer left without giving them instructions on how much they would sell it. So there, I looked around and found this nifty Compaq laptop from Villman. They also said that they are taking 3,500PHP off from the original price and the unit comes with a free Vista Starter disc and a Globe Prepaid Broadband Tattoo for 29,948.00 PHP :| We browsed for more shops and found a better deal from Asianic, same laptop for a cheaper price (comes with the same package as Villman’s) with a free 1Gb memory upgrade.

For the Love of Music

I hope you enjoyed the song from my previous post “Close Up Commercial 2009″. I never really had the full details of who, what where and when was the commercial published and who the cast were. One thing is for sure I got a lot of hits and emails from those who loved to have the song. The word “Iklan” means “commercial” or “advertisement” in Indonesia and the song title is “Come Closer” or “Paas Aao Na” since this is a common theme for the toothpaste ad. It is not Rico Blanco who composed this song, he made his own version and that is final. If he had this song on his released album “Your Universe” (which I never had a chance to listen nor got interested after he left Rivermaya – pardon me RB fans) before September 2008 then I rest my case (for now), there is a possibility that he did composed it. A lot of viewers from my YouTube account has been debating over this song. At first it was all about “what is the title of the song” questions (which was included on the video’s title) to “where can I download this song?” (this can be found on the video’s information on the upper right corner) after Rico Blanco made his version they started to argue who really composed the song. I’m not saying that RB’s version is all bad but I’m not saying that it’s that good either. Read the rest of this entry »

I showed my sister the MTV of Wonder Girls, she told me that she saw that MTV when she was still in China. I had an overdoze of “I want nobody, nobody but you” song and dance from her (sister Len)for the rest of the day . Hmmn matagal na pala yun… Moving a little further, Hilson called… I apologized for having him spend too much the last time we met.

I gave some friends the “Ako Mismo” Dog tags which we got from The Fort concert grounds last June 12.

I miss the old days, watching anime, playing MMORPG, sleeping at the office and over eating. I encountered nothing interesting today since the afternoon was so humid.

So far things are still the same… as we normally say here “same old, same old”
