MacBook Keyboard Freeze Problem Solved

The keyboard problem I talked about in my previous blog is now fixed! I don’t have the wireless network connection problem either! It’s been fixed in previous bug fixes. Now my MacBook running Leopard is perfect. 🙂

Osaka Blogroll

Over the weekend, Meema and myself met up with some friends from Osaka. I realized some of them are also bloggers so I am taking this opportunity to do an Osaka (and Tokyo) Blogroll. Then the links. Meema wearing blue – MeemaX OS Journey through BugsRose wearing red- A Record of my PassageShiera wearing maroon…

Oldie Tennis

Yesterday I attended a tennis class, where the participants were mostly old people in their retirement years. I guess this is the target market for noontime weekday classes. Even the coaches were older than usual. They would always refer to me as the young one… which in this particular situation makes sense even if I…

October 30, 2000

I was in Nagano Epson Dorm Room 206. Stephen was in Room 202 while Marlon was in Room 203. My photo archives are my treasure.

My Christmas Wish

My Christmas wish is for everyone I know to be happy… or even the ones I do not know. I wish happiness for all.

Merry Mutineers

Just this afternoon, a group of rebel soldiers trooped to a Makati hotel (again) to air their grievances against the Philippine government (again). Haven’t we had enough of this? It doesn’t worry people anymore. It’s all political masturbation, and Filipinos do it a lot. People are more concerned on how it will affect the peso….

Sylar Is After Me

After watching eleven episodes of Heroes over the weekend, I now fear that Sylar is following me wherever I go. He was following me while I was getting my bicycle from my building’s dark parking space. He was following me while I was biking through dark alleys on my way to tennis school. He wants…

2 Girls 1 Cup

There this video, “2 girls 1 cup”, that I so want to see but am afraid I’m going to puke when I see it. Judging from the reaction of people on the web, it looks like a very very gross video. WARNING: Do not watch this video while eating or with kids! TIP: You might…

Leopard on a Macbook – My Verdict

More than a week since I got my MacBook, my first Mac, and I think I am ready to write my review. I definitely love it more than my previous Sony Vaio. The Vaio had a better screen and better speakers but that’s just about it. The MacBook wins in all other aspects. I love…

Pictures from the TMS 2007

The pictures from the Tokyo Motor Show (TMS) 2007 are in! As expected, there were so many people, so many cameras. The girls, from the cutesy types all the way to the risque types, came in full force to draw attention to their merchandise. Oh and have I mentioned? There were cars too! And very…

What Typhoon?

Just realized a typhoon has passed Tokyo. That explains the heavy rains the whole day yesterday. That explains the broken transparent/translucent umbrellas I saw scattered on the streets of Ginza. That explains why several shops were closed. I should go back to watching Japanese TV. Ever since I got my cable TV, I get more…

Calling Philippine Mobiles from Japan

After doing some simple research, I’ve discovered Skype offers the cheapest way to call Philippine Mobiles from Japan at 33 yen/min. If you know of alternatives, do let me know. Right now, I use Skype when I’m home and Softbank otherwise.
