The Sickest


Man that was terrible! Something that shouldn't have happend. I had a chance to go back to subic last week and I don't believe it was some sort of vacation. The beach was satisfactory. It really wasn't SO good. and it was pretty crowded but it was good nonetheless. I was only able to dip into the water ONCE. read it again, ONE f*ckin' time. The rest of our three days out there I was in the hotel room sick as a dog.(I even think the dogs there feel better)What I wound up doing though, was watching what was left of our busted ass hotel TV. You know when luck really turns on you when your sick on the beach with 6 channels of television. (and it really doesn't give you much option when your stuck with Home shopping or HSN and a local television station which makes you scratch your head from all that talking you can't understand) I still managed to drag myself out of bed though to capture these pictures. and what you see would be me squeezing the living stuffing out of myself to capture these photographs. enjoy!

Guess the dictator or sit-com character


I found this neat site a couple of months ago thanks to a friend. And I've still been playing it today. In this game you must think like a sit-com character or a famous dictator and answer the questions truthfully like you are the person. The person must exist. Don't get things twisted and act like a dumbass and think for a second that you're inventing someone. You must think like Adolph Hitler or Ross from friends just as an examlple.The link is below.

Try it!

Eeeeew!


I hate to say this but that kid is Fugly!(as in F*ckin' ugly) Now you would know what would happen if I had a kid with that blonde girl. It's like when Conan O'brien puts on his "If they mated" segment late at night. If found that picture laying around the house while I was cleaning my room. I found it in an old book that I actually haven't found since sixth grade. That shot was taken in '98 in Sta. Lucia mall in Marikina. I really hope that isn't true. Now it scares me to have an affair with a blondie. Although I would like to know, What's with his hair?!

Big, Bigger, Biggest



Went to Ruins the other day, I found this DVD entitled: "Big, bigger, biggest: The best of Mr. Big". What your watching up there is just a taste of what's inside the DVD. The DVD is completely off the chain. The MTV you are watching is the Music video of "Green tinted sixties mind". what used to be a completely clear DVD copy is now reduced to a .WMV format for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

Midas' Guitar

Hey! Check this out. Another project went smoothly in the Go residence. The gold guitar pictured above is owned by my friend Jose. We used only acrylic laquer paints for this one. (no more noxious fumes from Epoxy paint) It's what we dubbed "The Midas guitar". King Midas was a king who through his amazing finger, turned everything into gold. Sadly, His unsuspecting daughter ran to him crying and Midas not knowingly set his fingers on her to comfort her. She immediately turned to gold and midas was without a daughter. A chilling reminder that you should be careful what you wish for.

What year do I belong in?


You Belong in 1979
1979
If you scored... 1950 - 1959: You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in! 1960 - 1969: You are a free spirit with a huge heart. Love, peace, and happiness rule - oh, and drugs too. 1970 - 1979: Bold and brash, you take life by the horns. Whether you're partying or protesting, you give it your all! 1980 - 1989: Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You're colorful at night - and successful during the day. 1990 - 1999: With you anything goes! You're grunge one day, ghetto fabulous the next. It's all good!
What Year Do You Belong In?

Personally, I thought I was an 80's person. It's pretty obvious from last month's "I LOVE THE 80'S" entry. I guess I was a year short of that.

April 8,1996


I dont remember this very clearly but the atmosphere of it all still sticks out of my mind. It's the feeling that I get everytime I leave the country. Anyway, April 8 of the year of our lord 1996 was a landmark date for us in the Go reasidence. It would be the start of many visits to the United States. I just can't imagine it was 9 years ago today that I woke up to the cold 3 o'clock breeze and headed out the Taxi. My memory isn't vivid but don't think I can't remember every detail. There was this one time during that trip that I kept bumping some ladies ass. Somehow, I kept hitting my forehead to it. It gave another meaning to the term "Head-butt". But in conclusion, I never knew the world as well as I do now (And im still learning a whole lot) but this trip showed me the better part of this world I was waiting to know. And now some historic events situated on April 8:

Birthdays
  • 563 B.C. Siddharta Gautama (buddha)
  • 1940 John Havlicek
Deaths
  • 1947 Henry Ford
  • 1994 Frank Wells (Disney Chairman)
Headlines
  • 1776 1st fire escape patented, wicker basket on a pulley & chain
  • 1941 Heavyweight Joe Louis KOs Tony Musto in St Louis
  • 1969 1st Baseball game in Canada - Mont Expos beats NY Mets 10-9
  • 1979 204th & final episode of "All in the Family"
