Ohmski's Blogline: Oktoberfest '08 at TasteAsia MOA

another happy night for me, lex, adie and a set of new friends at the Oktoberfest for Bloggers at TasteAsia at SM Mall of Asia last Sept 26, 2008. i was a bit late kasi nag-enroll pa ako sa Fitness First which costed me another fortune. i have my goals, wag na makialam. lol

by the way, mang-i-inggit muna ako ha. i've been attending to these kind of events kasi, first of all, LIBRE FOOD. thanks to TasteAsia for that wonderful treat always. lagi na lang kayo may plugging after every eveny. but everytime i go to TasteAsia, i really enjoy every experience. i think it's always a different set of buffet. nahihiya lang ako bumalik.

next, ANOTHER EB ito with other bloggers. first time to meet gneth from multiply and she had with her, jhuly. we had a bunch of topics to talk about and that includes other multiply users. malamang, dun kame nagkakila-kilala e. we even dreamt of holding an event for us multiply users pero cguro dpa masyadong bigtime. maybe an invitation to users within the MegaManila area muna. kung may sasama, go lang ha. wanna help with organizing? even saw my sisters officemates at the event. nice meeting you guys. i have also met, vera (aka trinalabandera and halavera) with a couple of Greenpinoy'ers. ang saya nilang tignan.

third, MAY FREEBIES PA! mantakin mo, nagpa-register ka lang, pumunta ka sa MOA on a typical gimik-night, free concert with Moonstar 88, libre kain at nag-uwi pa kame ng gift pack from SMB! aba magkano kaya ang ginastos ng SanMig at TasteAsia para malibre kame lahat? even lex won stuff from the raffle. nakakainis lang nung sunud-sunod na number e number ko ang nasa gitna. ako lang ata hindi natawag. grrr...

sayang sa mga hindi naka-attend. we hope that there's a halloween party. i wanna see guys again IN COSTUME! hahaha.. basta ako prepared na, just waiting for the announcement kung meron mang halloween party.

I FEEL SO SIKAT! (you know, hahaha...)
as always, you see photobloggers lurking in these kind of events showing off their DSLRs to others. (lol joke lang. e camera phone lang kasi meron kame nun kaya low-quality ang mga photos namin.) and then there's this Chinese blogger na biglang lumapit sakin, "Pwede magpa-picture?" i thought na magpapapicture sya kasama ng friends nya at ako ang hahawak ng camera. yun pala ako ang gusto nya kasama sa picture! wahahaha.. blog celebrity? ako? no way! alam kong sumikat at blockbuster ang blog ko minsan pero i never imagined na may magpapapicture kasama ako. hahaha... si Tanggera yun. nice meeting you. kasi ako daw yung nanalo sa Trinoma Blogger Food Tour photo contest. e gusto nya i-document na i was there also. so aminin ko na, na-flatter ako sa ganung approach sakin. next time nga makagawa na ng scandal. hahaha.. (not to mention my jaywalking incident.)

almost 2AM (what?!) nako nakauwi. nag-enjoy talaga ako sobra.

Survivor Philippines: Emerson heads home and Patani's moment

ngayon lang ulit ako nakapag-post for Survivor kasi hindi ko rin naman napanood nung Friday dahil sa isang event. if you want to read the whole of the story, go to the Survivor Philippines blogs.

so si Emerson of Naak pala ang natanggal sa 2nd Tribal Council after losing the most fierce immunity challenge yet on Survivor. nagka-wrestlingan, nagka-utakan and at some point, some bonds are shattered and emotions started to burst out when JC got disappointed at the established friendship between him and John.

immunity challenge yun, kailangan ng bawat isa sa inyo kaya sa susunod, galingan nyo pa, Naak.

at the Jarakay tribe, Patani, the Visayan yaya, is the star. she repeats her Starstruck speal and held some programs for everyone's delight.

i would like to share one her moments at the Jarakay tribe, quotable quotes ito:

“Gusto ko naman talaga ng exfosure. Pero kahit lalabas ako sa TV, kasi may GMA project, sasakay pa rin ako ng jeep. Walang magbabago sa’kin.”

"Muli na namang binuksan ang tulay at pinto patungo sa mundo ng SHUBEZ. Para sa mga kabataan na nais magpamalas ng talino at galing sa endostreya. Ito ang nag-iisa pilit ginagaya, ngunit walang kasing-tirik ang lipad, ito ang nag-iisang starstrak inbesyun! Dito sa starstrak kanya-kanyang pagalingan, kanya-kanyang biritan. Dito mapapatunayan kung sino ang karapat-dapat na maging starstrak surbaybor. Laging tatandaan, dito sa starstrak, everything is a test. So bilib in the pawer of your drim and surbayb…starstak...!!!!"

sayang, i was waiting for that scene. nakakatawa kasi talaga si Patani. lol. i am also surprised na meron nang Patanics, fans club? whoa!

Survivor Philippines: Naak starts fire

Naak finally started a fire, credit goes to Mama Zita. the others are so excited to taste warm food and then appreciated the blessings they have in contrast of what they taste on the urban life. they had these cooked weeds, something like the alugbati and some rice. they came satisfied.

meanwhile, Jarakay guys are teaming up against the ladies and Jace comes up to Vern on who to take out first on the Tribal Council once they lose the next immunity challenge. hmmm... intentionally losing an immunity challenge just to take one out? they were wishing to take out Niña after confronting with Jace and John on a very shallow argument.

tonight's challenge is to wrestle each castaway out of the borders. tambling at sikohan na'to!

Survivor Philippines: it's not the fire from the flint

on last night's episode, Cris and Kiko had a talk about the game. it is noted that the tension arose between the two men on who's the one to be followed on the boat challenge. each has presented their credits just to better each other. Cris, trying to cope with Kiko, expressed his thoughts but having a hard time saying them in english. Rob just had a laugh about it but who knows?

at Jarakay, the castaways finally had a taste of warm food cooked from the fire made from the flint they won from the challenge. but issues lurk within the members and alliances are being developed.

enough with the episode, which artwork is good? hehehe

Birth of the New Label

this the nth time i'm modifying my blog accounts and my creative juices are still flowing. from the backgrounds, headers etc. using CSS and HTML but still unsatisfied. the vector possibilities are endless so with my digital artistry. but sometimes my head cracks and dead air comes in. the laziness of this specie and the urge to copy ideas overpower me.

i have been thinking of something fresh, something to call my own. my pseudo has been given to me when i was in high school so it wasn't much mine. yeah, i have imbibed it and called it my own, but i want to lock it on everyone and remember it as me. sealing it -- and this gave me the idea.

seals and labels, what if i make something and seal my name on it? a little selfish but i think the idea is there. bringing up the old style of sealed letters and labeling, i have come up with the wax seal. very archaic but the ownership and rights are mine.
