My old Compaq Armada saddles my Eee PC and a Gameboy Advance. The one in the middle is obviously my favorite.
And as my Eee PC House wallpaper says… Aaaahhh!!!

The One With The Google Game
Posted in Killing Boredom, tagged Google, Manoel on May 26, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I just played one of the oldest Google games around and it really sparked my so far boring day.
I typed “Manoel is” in the Google search bar and made a search. The results I got were very interesting although of course, they didn’t make sense for me because the Manoels mentioned in the list are [...]
The One With The Open Window
Posted in Musings, tagged window on May 25, 2008 | 4 Comments »
When I see an open window I want to…
…jump and fly away like Superman
…look out and observe life as it happens
…imagine a beautiful girl pass by and glance at me
…listen to the sweet noise of kids playing patintero, tumbang preso or taguan—something I haven’t seen in a decade
…stare at the sky and imagine what it’s [...]
The One With The Airport Tuna Sandwich

I often wondered why airport food is exorbitantly priced. The first time I flew, that was when I went to Cebu, I didn’t eat breakfast then so I was very hungry when I entered the passengers’ lounge. I wanted a quick bite so I went to this stall and was surprised when the lady manning [...]
The One With The Wasted Food
Posted in Food, Musings, tagged Food on May 21, 2008 | 6 Comments »
My officemate, Acey, wastes at least two spoonfuls of rice every lunch. I think it’s such a big waste of food. I’ve pointed this out to her but she says she can’t eat a couple of bites more of the rice. I wish she would just offer a part of it to us before she [...]
The One With Indiana Jones

A white piece of paper was stapled to the bulletin board this morning. Our company is inviting us, employees, to watch the new Indiana Jones movie. For free. It’s their treat.
I would love to go. I haven’t seen a film since… see, I can’t remember the last one. I’m sure it would still be fun [...]
The One With The Eee PC Webcam
Posted in Eee PC, tagged Eee PC, web cam, webcam on May 12, 2008 | 6 Comments »
I know I’ve been talking nothing but Eee PC lately. I just can’t help it. This little bugger is the best thing I ever bought with my hard-earned cash.
Anyway, going back to the premise of this entry’s title, the Eee PC 4g’s webcam is a 0.3 megapixel baby. It’s not high-end but decent enough to [...]
The One With The Eee PC Advanced Desktop Mode
Posted in Eee PC, tagged advanced desktop, Eee PC on May 12, 2008 | 4 Comments »
My adrenaline was on a natural high the day I was finally able to change my Eee PC’s desktop interface from this cute:
To this not so cute but more adult-appealing look (you can still say it’s cute if you find Greg House adorable):
I did this after reading a thread at the Eeeph forum. One important [...]
The One With The Eee PC Softwares
Posted in Eee PC, tagged Eee PC, openoffice, penguin, tux on May 9, 2008 | 3 Comments »
People say the Eee PC is not a laptop or desktop replacement. That it should only be considered as a second option when you’re outside where a desktop is impossible to use or a laptop would just be too heavy and big to carry around. I completely disagree with all this.
The Eee PC can be [...]
The One With Goodbye Armada, Hello Eee PC

My secondhand Compaq Armada didn’t work out as I expected. Sometimes it will open, sometimes it won’t. But when it does, I just use it to watch some videos. Although I haven’t touched it for almost a week now simply because I now have this:
It’s the Asus Eee PC 4G 701.
I would [...]
