So How Was Everyone’s Christmas?

Movies and DQ’s

Another 6 movies

Pinoyblogosphere is a commitment

I’ve been watching movies for 5 days straight with dyu. And I’m hoping I’m not gonna watch one tonight.

Exactly 365 days ago, I bought the domain Pinoyblogsphere.com. While Pinoyblogosphere is a great joy, it’s also a great commitment. To have some time where commitments just slip away for a while is a fabulous thing. For those who cares to know, PBS was down for a few days because Dreamhost renamed the index file, leaving the files exposed to the public, and imposed restriction to one of our ftp account causing us not to be able to access the files.

At first no one would tell us what was wrong why we couldn’t access most of the PBS files (services) thru one of our ftp accounts. The sites for most of the time would also return internal errors.The other day, someone from them finally admitted that they have imposed a restriction. They could have just told us right away. So we shouldn’t have wasted our time figuring out what’s wrong on our end. They said, one wrong move and they will disable the account P-E-R-M-A-N-E-N-T-L-Y. That really made me and dyu worry.

Dreamhost claimed that our site was crashing their server. Affecting a hundred other customers. I find it hard to believe. How could a simple script calling for a image 10.3 kb file, similar to hotlink, made their server overload and crashed? I really don’t get it. We have GB’s of storage capacity and TB’s of bandwidth allocation.

The first time this happened was when they said our TopSite crashed their server and they disabled it. We are told not to run it again, otherwise they will disable our account. And so we obeyed them. The site was still up but there were no longer database processing on it. The bloggers who were using the script from the topsite are still getting a pbs chicklet, but it was just a small badge… a plain 10.3 Kb image . We heard no problem and so we thought everything was fine until last week.

Their recommendation was for us to get a Private server from them.  Why would I do that? We’re thinking of moving to another host. PBS will shut down some of its services to save it’s main services such as the group blog, forum etc. We hope you can bear with us until we are able to move to a new home. We are very sorry for the inconvenience. I thought then that Dreamhost is a good host but I am very very frustrated about this whole incident.

We are not just ready for the move, but who knows waht will happens next? Another thing, dyu is leaving for U.S.  this year or January. And it’s making everything more complicated.

Is this a dream or a nightmare? Tell me?

to be cont…

Incorrect lense due to carelessness

I had to go back to Executive Optical to have my contact lens checked. When I got home last night, I’ve noticked one of the four boxes of the contact lenses was still sealed. So I opened it up and found that both lenses in the box have 175 . I started to doubt if the lenses that the lady applied to me are both 200. They hadit checked and confirmed both were 200. They replaced it. For the second time, I asked them to help me apply my lenses.

I and boo had our lunch today at Kenny Rogers, Glorietta. Madami naka costume na mga sales clerk at mga bata na nagiikot para manghingi ng treats. Madami tao ngayon. Para bang nalimutanpansamantala ng mga tao ang nangyari sa G2.

At 4pm nasa office na ako. Our company held a Treat or Trick party for the employee’s kids. My brother and his girlfirend with their daughther Ten were at the party so I gotta be there as well . I was supposed to meet a buyer from ebay at 3:30PM at the Exportbank lobby but I was late dahil sa pila sa Breadtalk and take note dalawang beses ako nasingitan. Buti na lang at pinadala ko na yung item na bibilhin nya sa brother ko so sila na lang ang nagkita. It was a PS2 dancepad controller that boo bought in chicago. There were 2 of them. I’m keeping one of it , used quite a few times and the other was left unused for more than a year. So I decided to sell it so somebody can use and enjoy it.

Nanood kami ng “30 Days Of Night” sa G4,Glorietta at 10:30 PM, we were 10-min late! It was again…unplanned. The movie was not that scary but it was really gross. Vampires do exist nowadays, but they don’t suck blood, they suck your energy and resources. Bato bato sa langit, ang tamaan wag magagalit .

Goodbye eyeglass, hello contact lens

It’s time to get myself a contact lens. I started wearing an eyeglass when I was in college. I’ve worn 2 eyeglasses and lost both. Back then my prescription was 100/75. Last year, after 5 years of not wearing eyeglasses, I got myself another one. This time my prescription was 200/200, but they gave me only half of my prescription since they said I did not wear one for a long time. I got myself a simple Liz claiborne plastic black and white frame eyeglassess. The frame cost me almost 5 thousand and spent another 3 thousand for the lenses and special coating. The store gave me a discount and removed almost two thousand off from the total amount. My glasses has Photochromic lenses, also called variable-tint lenses or transition lenses, that darken in the sun. I would recommend it to someone who spend a lot of time outdoors. Those who love pictures will love their pictures taken even when their glasses are on if you have Photochromic lense. Because you will not see glare spots. They also applied anti-reflective coating, UV coating and scratch-resistant that made the lenses more attractive and longer-lasting. I love my glasses no doubt. But wearing it everyday is a burden. I’m also not comfortable wearing it especially while crossing the streets.

It’s time to get myself a contacts. I went back to Executive Optical and bought a year of supply. Four pairs of disposable lenses. I got 2 bottles of cleaning solutions for free. Each pair can be use for 3 months and cost PhP680.00. I have lenses enough for a year. I picked 3 colors, 2 pepermint, an aquamarine and cofee-brown. I asked them to help apply my first pair, pepermint. My vision was quite cloudy at first, but it became clearer while we were watching “Lust, Caution” movie at G4.

Their sales clerk lady taught me how to apply and remove the lenses. And tonight was the first time I had it removed. All right. I have a confession. It took me more than 10 mins to remove it. I tried for so many times to gently pinch the lens together with my index finger and thumb and lift it off my eyes but It was not easy. I tried reading on the internet and found out there are easier way to remove it. They said you just look upward or sideways while you pull down your lower eyelid and with the index finger, gently maneuver the lens onto the white of your eye and lift it off from the eye using your index finder and thumb. Easy for them to say, but very difficult for a newbie like me. I’ll try it next time. I hope it will work for me.

Stupid is a mean word! And stupid ass is not

Do you want to smile and laugh? Then watch “Game Plan“, a disney production. I watched it with boo and believe me,I love it, it’s good, hilarious family movie.

Who breaks a butterfly upon a wheel?

Done watching “Butterfly on a Wheel“. Good movie. But Gerard Butler is not as handsome he was in 300 . Gerard Butler, Maria Bello and Pierce Brosnan in one film is enough to make me want to watch it. It’s just so odd to watch Brosnan play a horrific character. This movie has a lot of twist.

I prefer Extradition

I have been having little fights again with boo which I think is normal. It’s all but flavor. Last night he invited me to watch a movie. He checked the movie schedules online and we watched “Rendition”. I have no idea about the Rendition Law. Only after the movie did I realize how dangerous this law could be. I mean not all Rendition types since Extradition still appears to be generally acceptable. But the rendition law practiced in the movie was quite disturbing, it’s so scary enough to keep me up at night if these were to be implemented in a foreign country where I am. I see this movie as the filmaker’s attempt to use movie making stream to get the audience attention about a moral crisis that many of us prefer to ignore.

It’s my 3rd time to be there after the Glorietta blast. I really do not go out much as my work ussually ties me up in my desk but if I need to go out to get some things I need or to unwind or dine, theres only 1 mall I ussualy go to… It’s Glorietta. And I can go there alone …comfortably even in my slippers.

I counted the number of the movie goers. There were only 16 people including me and dyu. Only 16 in one of Glorietta’s largest movie house (cinema 6). I would ussually buy DQ’s chocolate covered strawberry blizzard. It has become a part of my ritual when watching a movie. But to my surprise, they were already closed  at 9:30pm! Wendy’s which is adjacent to cinema 6 and 7 was also closed. And so I had to make myself contented with SB strawberry cream frap. G4 terrace was also closed.

It was passed 12 midnight when we got out from Glorietta. There were no cabs and there were no other people waiting in the taxi stand. I don’t know why. Maybe beucase of the upcoming election or maybe because of the recent incident.

I am not just comfortable as I ussualy am before when I am there. I don’t feel safe. I’ll watch another movie tonight and I wish dyu will not take me there.

I took a video that night, and I will post it here.
