Drei on the Net

We sent these photos to Huggaluggs way back in May. Drei was only 3 months old then. I only checked the site again today.

Addicted!

I've taken at least 700 photos since Friday! And I'm way late with my updating my online albums. I've uploaded one set so far (the Legos). I'll be uploading more later when I get home.

so...

it's been quite a while (again) since i've had a significant blog entry. for those of you who are wondering how i am, here's a quick update.

first of all, i got promoted. effective 24July08, i'll start work as a Personal Banking Officer. i'll still be based at the HSBC branch at Enterprise though. after 6 years in the Bank, i finally caught a break! Ü

















daddyness has been pretty good. drei's been growing fast! he'll be 5 months old this Wednesday. in general, he's been a happy kid. and that makes us happy parents. he'll be cranky at times and will wake up during the odd hours of the morning for milk but that's the way babies are. so from what we've seen so far, he's normal hehehe.

















a couple of days ago, i play a satellite at the Metro Card Club and won a seat to the Filipino Poker Tour 3. the seat was worth Php33K. i also won a seat to another Filipino Poker Tour tournament last April. that one was worth Php55K. both time, i opted to sell the seats. rest assured that IF i win a seat for the next FPT i'll be playing it.





that's all for now! til next time!

TJD 702

for those who've known me long enough, you'll know that the subject is the plate number of my old car. here's a picture of it a couple of weeks ago. i saw it on the road while on the way home.

it's a 1992 Mitsubishi Lancer GLi i got from my grandfather after he passed away. it didn't have power steering, power windows or power locks. it overheated in traffic during summers. it got towed in ortigas a couple of times. and a damaged radio which a friend (i'm not telling who) can explain. this is the car in which i learned how to drive and let a few friends practice their driving skills in it as well.

from the looks of things, it's being taken good care of by it's new owner. it's still white and the bumpers have been repainted. i'm just happy it didn't end up as a taxi cab.

annoying billboard

i take EDSA everyday going to work and pass by this billboard. quite honestly it annoys the living hell out of me. ok, fine! it's a Porsche. but to advertise it as "As LOW as Php 65,000/month".

Jesus Christ! Php65K is like 3 months worth of pay for some people. maybe even half a year for others.

i don't get why they even thought of putting up this monstrosity when there's only a small percentage of the population that can afford to drop 6.5 dimes a month for a car anyway?

thanks for taking time in reading this rant. feel free to chime in Ü

a couple thousand

check out the serial numbers on these two crispy and very new P1000 bills i picked up Ü my boss also told me there's another one in the vault with the serial number in 000001 hahaha
