The theme for our year-end party this year is Coachella. At first, I did not like the theme because I can’t find any suitable costume in the internet. Good thing for me I happen to pass by the Surplus Shop at Megamall, and saw this cheap white shirt with “Rock and Roll Forever” print at …
Go! Go! Fujitsu Frontiers!
Yesterday, I had the opportunity to watch the Fujitsu Frontiers football game. The Fujitsu Frontiers is an American Football team located at Kawasaki. The JXB Tournament Semifinal Finals was held at the Fujitsu Kawasaki Stadium, just about 20 minutes walk from Kawasaki Station. The game was against the Orbic Seagulls. I could remember when I was …
Rikugien Autumn Illumination 2017
My girlfriend and I were supposed to have a trip to Tateyama Kurobe Alpen Route. However, the weather forecast over the weekend was so undesirable that we decided to postpone it. So where did we go instead? We visited Rikugien Autumen Illumination! But before that, we did a sidetrip to Hamarikyu Garden. The park itself …
A promise fulfilled
Last December 2016, I saw my mom’s profile photo with Mount Mayon (or some mountain) in the background. I told myself that I always wanted to bring my mom in Japan. I’ve been to places in Japan, but my mom hasn’t. I was actively looking for Cebu Pacific’s seatsale promos. Luckily, I was able to …
My Bitcoin Hardware Wallet
Ever since Bitcoin has rocketed to $6,100 (as of this writing), I already wanted to have a bitcoin hardware wallet for my cryptocurrencies. Way back in August when I bought Bitcoin at $500 +/-, it was still small. But now it’s already hard to entrust your entire money to an online wallet such as coins.ph. …
DevCon Summit CDO
Last October 21 (Saturday), I gave a talk at DevCon Summit CDO. When I heard about the event, I immediately submitted a proposal. I really wanted to talk at my hometown because the IT industry is really on hypergrowth. I was also able to let my company sponsor 200 shirts during the event. My topic …
Farewell, Strong and Independent Woman
My direct line manager has been accepted at the global office in Portugal. She’d be moving there next week and will be handling a large team of software engineers. She is more than capable to do that since it was being manifested and validated with how she was also able to handle the 4 of …
The HTTP 204 (No Content)
Last week, we only had 3 working days since Monday was National Heroes Day and Friday was Eidul Adha. I didn’t have any out of town plans as I wanted to just review for my GRE exam. But alas, I decided to instead build a PHP Package for the Have I Been Pwned API. If your …
See you around, Dog!
Last night, my mother texted me that Dog was already in a critical state. At first, I didn’t believe. Or maybe, I was just in a state of denial? That our beloved Dog, is really reaching old age. He’s a senior dog already, at 15 years old. Below is Dog’s most accurate biography so far, …
Reviewing for GRE
I have barely 2 weeks left before my Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and I’m still not confident enough if I would get good grades or not. Weeks before, I tried memorizing vocabularies so greek to me. To the point that I found it boring and useless. But every GRE blog or review that I read, …
