Finally I get the chance and the drive to write again. This is going to be more or less a cluttered topic blog, quite different from what I usually do (I usually try to keep it one topic per entry to make things easier for people to find). I wanted t write about this earlier but well the fear of flak has been hindering me from doing so. My first solo article was published recently on Wired, ACTM. From the design studio and behind the text to actual text,
I’m an actual writer now. A copy of my article can be found on my multiply.
Speaking of apple and macs, I got myself an apple remote today. A girl was selling brand new sealed apple remotes on Philmug the other day and they we’re really at a good price (600 php compared to the usual 1400-1900 php that they sell it on the major apple resellers in the country). I asked her to reserve one for me and I finally picked it up today. Finally I can make the most of Lockdown, Frontrow and keynote. I’ll definitely be ready for my group’s communication 11 presentation next week. It is a little irritating that the apple remote doesn’t come paired with my macbook (apple stopped pairing them as of Feb 2008), but I got a very good deal none the less.
I still haven’t taken out the plastic covering the remote but I have paired it with my macbook so no one else can access it
. I shall dub thee remote “Maggie Mui”
Last Saturday’s NSTP was tiring and fun at the same time. An interesting spot light of last Saturday was our guests from Santa Clara University, California. Sam and Austin are recent graduates who volunteered/ ordered by their mentor to come to the Philippines and do research for Austin’s Family’s Foundation (I think) as well as get exposed to the different kind of poverty we have here. I don’t have any pictures yet but I’m contacting my NSTP classmates as well as Sam and Austin to send me some pictures.
