The Blogdriver



I am...

Karlow
male
23 years old
from Sta. Mesa
an Editor
a self-confessed glutton.

I like...

computers,
Nintendo DS and PSP,
tech gadgets,
television,
and sleeping (my fave).


I used to write and edit for our student publication in college, and that's what got me into blogging (although some say blogging is not journalism). I don't write to impress; I just do it. Using highfalutin words is not my style, but using parentheses is (really).

This blog contains my opinion, experiences, and others' as well. I update based on my metabolism. No pressure. Please visit this blog regularly (if you are willing) and tell me if you want to exchange links. ;-)

Fighting!
I just want to tell you people who visit my blog (if you are still there) that I survived typhoon Ondoy! I was just to busy to blog about it. I hope all of you are safe too. :)

Fill in the Blank: I want nobody nobody but _____
Make sure that you are always updated when it comes to music.

From People’s Tonight (Sept. 5, 2009): A man was stabbed to death by four men for failing to know Wonder Girls’ hook song ‘Nobody.'



This is what the news article says:
Kumakanta umano si Joseph (suspect) ng ‘Nobody,’ ang popular na kanta ng Wonder Girls, nang tanungin siya ng biktima ng, “Ano ang kinakanta mo?” Nairita umano ang isa sa mga suspek dahil ‘di alam ni Santos (victim) ang kanta kaya’t sinuntok niya ito. Nakihalo na ang tatlo pang suspek at kinuyog ang biktima.
Now, to make sure that the same fate does not happen to you, watch this video posted by birdy2209 on YouTube. You’ll be much safer if you memorize these dance steps:

Total Eclipse of Malling
We at the office were allowed by our boss to go home early because of the bad weather (and because we also had nothing much to do). And just like a college student who was ecstatic upon hearing the news about the suspension of classes, I went straight to the nearest mall just to look around. He he!

On the contrary, when I was in college, I used to go home immediately when classes were suspended (sometimes, I joined protest rallies). I didn’t enjoy hanging out at the mall. I’d rather stay at home and watch TV or sleep. Now, I realize that I’m still the same. I still don’t enjoy malling. Wait a sec, a crooked red line appeared below the word ‘malling’ (I’m typing on MS Word). So, it’s not an actual word after all?! But I hear people say it on TV! Wow! I learned something new this day. :-p

I still have something to say about malls, but my train of thought was interrupted by the word ‘malling.’ So, I’ll just share this video that I stumbled upon while on YouTube. It’s the literal video version of ‘Total Eclipse of the Heart.’ I like the original song, but this version is way better. You can also check other videos from the user. Enjoy! :-p

Social Experiment Update
My social experiment was a flop (see previous entry). No one bit it. Well, at least now I know that people are smarter than I thought they were. It really bothers me when people post or send a message claiming that someone’s life will be taken or something bad will happen if they do not repost it or send it to other people. How 18th century! Now I have to delete the message that I posted before someone thinks of me as a fool. :-P

Spread this or catch the virus
I’m having a social experiment. I posted this fake message on Friendster:
Because you opened this message, you have to repost it in 10 minutes, or else, your mother will catch swine flu!

Guys, dis s true! Yung friend ko in-ignore 2ng message na 2. Nagkaswine flu nanay nia. Bcoz I love my mother, I’m reposting dis. I hope u do so 2.
Then, I’ll wait to see who will fall for it. He he! I just hope none the people of my friends’ list read this entry until my experiment is done.
