About Me

My photo
ella. twenty-one. everything on impulse.
This blog's intended to be an online journal of some sort where I post my ramblings and obsessions, where I share photos of my walks, where I tell you how awesome my day went or how crappy it was. No, this is not a diary because no matter how personal it gets here, I still have the liberty to keep to myself the names of the people I want dead.

Nina! :)



Nina and me, on a stroll along the track oval, UP, last Jan. 28. It was a sunny afternoon, hence the chinky eyes on the 2nd photo. Went to grab isaw at SC and surprised to see the Coop Sago/Malamig/fishball stand now with a new screaming orange interior. Now it has ambiance! haha. Forgot to get a photo though.

She presses on, enthusiasm kindling within her.

The title of this post was a sample sentence in the "Kindle" definition wallpaper which was the first thing I saw when I turned on my newly purchased Kindle 3 Wifi. To be able to store 3500 e-books basically enables the user to carry his whole library with him! oh boy! No need for paperbacks that get borrowed by friends or dormmates or officemates, and eventually get lost. The owner just can't track 'em anymore. With the kindle, you could stay on track in your reading list and listen to music too! It has an MP3 player but you can't choose the tracks to play on your whole music folder, you just either pause or skip to the next track. This feature needs some upgrade in the near future. Plus you can't read in the dark since there's no built-in light (which is also a plus on the energy-consumption side, the kindle could last up to 3 weeks!). And the e-ink technology ensures that there'll be no glare when you read under strong external light. The kindle is like printed text, it's black and white. and with wifi, browsing the net in B&W is surely something new. haha. I love, I love, I love my new baby. :) Now I can reread my Murakami books. Murakami, hands down, writes the most beautifully surreal sad fiction.

a crappy photo of my kindle. I love how the wallpaper changes everytime you put it on sleep mode.

Piso Fare and Travel Plans

I was able to book a flight for me and H on Cebupac with their (still on-going, as of writing) Piso Fare promo. Oh boy, too many page errors, a lot of refresh clicks, and 2 hours later, I successfully got my itinerary. Oh yeah! 4 pesos for 2 roundtrip tickets Manila-Dumaguete plus web admin charge (PHP200) plus VAT (PHP 52.08) and Aviation Security Fee (PHP 30.00) charged me a measly PHP310 pesos. My hardwork and patience paid off, after all. Now all I needed is a travel itinerary. I've heard the dive spots are world class at Apo Island, and Casaroro Falls is breathtaking, and the Mabinay Caves are equally spellbinding. Can't wait! Can't wait! From now on, I will consider every vacation leave as a great travel opportunity. 2 weeks ago, I went to Iloilo for the Dinagyang Festival and went home satisfied gastronomically, socially, and visually. Next vacation, the plan's all set for Bohol. It's gonna be legen-wait for it-DARY (as Barney Stinson says it)! :) And a couple of months after that, Dumaguete!
