Sony Ericsson K750i

I love my new phone! It has everything I've ever wanted, and thanks to my dad and the power of the improved banking system, I can actually afford one. I'll be posting some pics I snap up from time to time, and I'm still looking at a better way of uploading them using my phone as compared to linking it up to the computer all the time to upload it.

And guess what -- interfacing the phone via USB is possible on Linux! So I actually get to carry around a diskette (or a couple dozens of those pesky little buggers) around in my phone! Sony Memory Stick Duo's aren't cheap, but I guess my extra money will go to those little life savers. Good thing about it is the 2.0 megapixel camera which takes impeccable high-resolution images.

And did I mention that I can get the photos in Linux?! I can actually access the memory card in the phone as a removable mass storage device -- and copy/paste files like on any regular device! No need for me to invest in a separate USB storage device.

And it has a built-in FM radio with fantastic surround sound earphones.

So I get a camera (2.0 megapixel which is REALLY GOOD) which is a phone (with all standard messaging and calling functions) and a multimedia (MP3, MPEG, and JPEG/GIF) mobile station which also doubles as a walkman (FM radio tuner). And it looks uber cool to boot -- my dream phone at last.

So now you can look forward to seeing more pics on the site. ;)



There's me up late at my cousin's shop. Wouldn't this be really neat if I did this everyday? ;)

Appreciating Rizal...

Nope, this is not an academic post. More of a reflective and wrote-because-i-was-enlightened type post. Anyway, I just passed a paper on Rizal's notion of a nation according to Quibuyen (a local writer who devoted a book -- A Nation Aborted -- on his treatise on Rizal). Chapter 6 was an interesting read, and a definite eye opener. Rizal all of a sudden became interesting, especially to someone like me who could care less. It seems that most of what Rizal aims for and wrote about is still evident in today's Philippines as I see it. I wonder why I didn't get to appreciate Rizal and his work when I was still in high school -- might be the fault of the high school and the curriculum, or might be because I was still considerably immature then. I wasn't able to understand most of Rizal's writings though even if I got to reading them basically because they translated from Spanish to Filipino/Tagalog. I don't have problems with Tagalog, until you put it in writing. I

From FOMO to JOMO

Until very recently I believed that I needed to be on top of the latest news and happenings not only in my field (computer science and software engineering) but also in as many things as I can be on top of. This meant subscribing to all sorts of magazines, newsletters, YouTube channels, Twitch streamers, watching TV and live sport events, etc. — I was on top of a lot of the latest happenings, trends, news, interesting developments. I was having fun and I felt busy. What I did not feel was particularly effective nor productive. I felt like I was consuming so much information with the thought that it might be useful someday. When I was younger this wouldn’t have been an issue but I realised that ever since I’ve started taking stock of what I’ve been spending my time on, that a lot of it I’ve been spending just staying on top of things that I really didn’t need to be on top of. This article is about some of the realisations I’ve made in the course of exploring this issue of “FOMO” or

Keeping a work log

I have been keeping a journal for my personal life with some regularity for the good part of 4 years. The difference between my earlier attempts at journaling before four years ago is the regularity and the structure. I started with a very structured and regimented journal (doing it everyday with prompts and blanks to fill), to a ruled journal notebook, then a plain notebook (no rules nor grids in the pages), and then settling on a dot-grid notebook. This allows me to doodle and write free-form to help me commit thoughts and observations of my day but it was mostly for archival and looking back to "feel good" or reminisce (also to sum up a month, a year, etc.) The approach helps a lot with self-improvement in terms of my mental health and my reflection to see where I was a specific amount of time ago and whenever I was reading it again. In a previous post I wrote about keeping a work log, and I realised I only mentioned that in passing. In this post I detail the structure of
