Review: ABNKKBSNPLAKo?! by Bob Ong
2008-04-26 15:09:05
I re-read Bob Ong’s ABNKKBSNPLAKo?! because I am bored. Well, it is still funny as ever. I also can’t help myself but remember my high school and elementary days. Bob Ong is, indeed, a genius because I find his way of delivering wonderful message amazing.Bob Ong also struggles with Math! He said though that Math is the universal language because it is everywhere. He tells that there are 12 kinds of high school students found in pages 99-102. The tone becomes serious in the middle part wherein Bob Ong narrates his college life.ABNKKBSNPLAKo?! makes me think what will happen after college. I’m so nervous! Anyway, I know this book is old and many have read it. Still, buy this Bob Ong classic if you have time because it’s worth keeping. You can go back to your memories of your school

Although he was full of admiration for his adopted father and yearns to become an ally of justice, Shirou has limited powers and was unable to become a strong sorcerer like his father. That is until one fateful day, he was drawn into the Holy Grail War and had to summon a female "Servant" known as Saber in order to protect himself.

Review: MacArthur by Bob Ong
2008-04-13 06:36:25
I can say that MacArthur is really different from Bob Ong's other books. On his first five books, you will be laughing hard the whole time because it is full of humor. Now, you will be shocked because Bob Ong writes another fiction (first is Alamat ng Gubat) but in a serious tone. MacArthur is a story of four young friends namely Cyrus, Voltron, Jim, and Noel who are struggling from the sad realities of poverty and corruption. Being those who live in the squatters' area, vulgar words are common throughout the book. The ills of our society such as drugs are shown too. In case you don’t know, MacArthur is a Filipino slang word for feces that don’t easily go down the toilet as if saying “
The meaning behind my name

When I was a 4th year HS student, we had a homework in the subject Christian Living and Values Education (CLVE) about the origin of our name. We should also find out what our name tells about us. I kind of hate my second name (Henry). Well, I can’t do anything about it. ORIGIN OF MY NAMERedel From my father’s name Rey and my mother’s name Delia.

Conquering an obstacle
2008-04-07 07:58:47
It’s been eight days since our graduation but I can’t forget the project that really tortured my brain and wallet. The project I’m talking about is our English thesis/research paper. We have done it step by step in the first and second quarters. We finished and defended it in the fourth quarter. My topic was about coping mechanisms. I’m lucky enough because I found several references in the internet. Credits to Google and Yahoo for being such great help! LOL. This is about the tortured stage. It tortured my brain because it required critical thinking. Every chapter should be explained completely except for Chapter 2 (Review of Related Studies and Literature). I just copied and pasted related articles, studies, and information to my topic (LOL) but of course I made revisions.

5 Ways to Speed Up Your Computer
2008-04-02 05:33:44
I got these pieces of information from Microsoft and DataSoftSystem. I added some ways that I also do. These ways will help the computer to run faster. 1. Use disk cleanup Go to Start / All programs / Accessories / System Tools / Disk Cleanup Check those that will apply. It is recommended to leave uncheck the recycle bin if you have some important files there. Also, leave uncheck the Office Setup Files (these are the installation files used by Office). Just leave those two alone. Others are safe to remove. It may take long if you will be doing this for the first time. I recommend you to do this step at least twice a month. 2. Run Disk Defragmenter Running disk defragmenter monthly is optimal. Defragmenting your hard drive/disk puts the data back into cons

Bye High School :(
2008-03-30 09:17:48
The four years of learning passed in a blink of an eye. I was then a transferee in Notre Dame of Greater Manila but yesterday I, with my batch mates, graduated High School
. I clearly remember that I had no friends during the first day of classes but time passed and I had a lot. I will miss my teachers and advisers who gave us troublesome projects, countless home works, and difficult quizzes. Will I forget those days where I conquest to pass my ever-favorite (LOL!) math subject? Hell no! On the first semester of the school, I failed Math and that’s the reason why I didn’t belong to the top 10 of my section. Since advance algebra came into my life, it became my waterloo. Good for me because I passed it on the second semester and bagged the top 1. Thank you God! I wish I was given talent

School AGAPE and Mixed Emotions
2008-03-28 05:21:28
We, the fourth year students of Notre Dame of Greater Manila, had our last practice of our graduation yesterday. During the first few hours, we were doing nothing. I think we started practicing at 9 A.M. There were a lot of students who didn’t go to school but went to the afternoon event, the AGAPE. We finished practicing at 11:30 A.M. The undergrads that time were taking their examination (2nd day). We had to wait for more than 2 hours before the mass began because we were not allowed to go home. For the last time, my friends and I ate in the school canteen. Huhu. Afterwards, we went to the student’s lounge. We played games, talked with each other, cracked jokes, etc. At 2 PM, my friends and I went to the school gymnasium because the mass will start at any moment. Many parent

Another is the secret mini house which resembles the original PBB house. Someone will stay here in the coming days as Luis said. I think the people who will stay here will be coming from the other 30 dream key holders. This is just my perception so don't believe it. LOL! This edition is really different.
