I’m in Tokyo. I’m Pinoy. I’m a Blogger. This is my blog.
Kei Nishikori: Hope of Japan
For a long time, Takao Suzuki has been Japan’s best male tennis player but the other day, a new guy has appeared and won his first ATP Title — the first by a Japanese in nearly 16 (!) years. His name is Kei Nishikori. He’s 18 years old and I’m sure Japan’s tennis community is…
Graf/Navratilova, Here I Come!
Got my tickets for this exhibition and I think we’ll be sitting pretty close to the center of the court! Here’s a picture of Ariake Coliseum Yehey!
Feel It – BNP Paribas Masters
Another one of those Feel it ads. If the last one was “Feel the Ferocity”, this one is “Feel the Intensity”, “Feel the Power” and “Feel the Passion”. It was used last year at the BNP Paribas Masters in Paris.
Police All Around
The police are all around my building. Some guy from the upper floors is planning to jump and end his life. I can see it already — my building on tonight’s NHK News. Oh … My … God!
Corporate Spring Tournament
Spring is just around the corner and corporate tennis clubs in Tokyo are all getting ready for the Corporate Spring Tournament (春東京実業団対抗リーグ戦) 2008. Big companies such as NTT (previous champion), NIPPO (previous runner-up), Mizuho, Ricoh, Microsoft, Fujitsu, Goldman Sachs, Sony, among others are expected to be there. It’s going to be held at the Ariake…
UP Naming Mahal
The University of the Philippines (UP) is celebrating 100 years (Centennial) this year. This is my gift to my Alma Mater — me singing “UP Naming Mahal”. <deleted> Happy 100 Years to UP (Since 1908)!
Feel It
This is the new ATP ad as part of it’s FEEL IT campaign. So cool!
Graf vs Navratilova in Tokyo!
What more could you ask for? Two of probably the best women tennis players in history, together with probably the best Japanese tennis player of all time in an exhibition match here in Tokyo. They call it Dream Match 2008 and it’s going to be held on March 15, 2008 (13:00) at the Ariake Coliseum….
I am a Fire Dragon!
Just today, thanks to a Filipino-Chinese friend, I was able to confirm I was born in the year of the Dragon! So cool as compared to being born on some year of a rat or a pig or some monkey. I was born in the year of the Dragon! THE FIRE DRAGON 1916 AND 1976…
Gaora is for Tennis
For tennis enthusiasts in Japan, Gaora is the channel for you! As I write this entry, they are playing a rerun of the Sampras-Federer Macau Exhibition 2007. This was the third of a series of exhibition games in Asia and too bad I already know the outcome — Sampras will win this one. Here is…
Damn Final Cut Express
I got me Final Cut Express (FCE) as I thought it would be the natural next step for us users of iMovie. Maybe it’s just me or iMovie is so much easier to use than FCE. I can do exactly the same thing in iMovie for 30 minutes what it would take me 1 hour…
