idol thing...

america has a new idol and it's david cook... i know it's a late entry for me but this is not really about the american idol... i'll go local this time, lets talk pinoy idol... you know what, the trouble of having a show like the idol franchise is that we can really see the difference on how the entertainment business works from country to country... it's undeniable that american idol reached record highs when it comes to ratings and all... now here comes our local version the pinoy idol, no this is not the first one it is actually the 2nd idol here in the country... it was known as the phillipine idol with a different franchise holder but yet it is still the same no matter how they change the title... now, i don't normally watch their shows but out of curiosity i did... and it was a turn off, really... from the host to the production, the judges are good though like ogie alcasid and the other guy but with jolina?... wla na gid haw??(no one else??)... the shows host doesn't even know what's his doing in there... here comes the contestants, they are all good and natural not until... wt?? they were baptized with a new name, so it's like Juan Dela Cruz became John D... for me there's no need for that... show rating 2/10... peace!

Change is Coming!

After a much heated campaigns the election fever are almost finally over. Pending the final canvassing of votes by the congress the people have chosen a new leader to rule the country for the next 6 years. The presumptive president is a mayor from a city down south of the Philippines known for his iron fisted style of government. What makes this election interesting is the process on how people now choose their leaders. Traditionally, we oath to go for people with great experience, plans, smart and proper character and attitude someone we normally call 'honorable'. This election changed that idea, people now go for leaders with real simple plans to solve recurring problems in the society, strong work portfolio to showcase their capability to govern and implement real solutions. Good luck to the newly elected president, I wish you well in your quest to change this country into something everyone wish it should be. Peace!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

The year is about to end and yes it was one challenging and full of adventure 2018. Who would thought that after 10 years I'm still here working in a university, something I didn't even plan to pursue but probably it was a decision that I took and never regretted. Starting from an engineering background which is also the first job I took at a semiconductor manufacturing company for so many years and later going back to college and shifted into programming. To look back, the Singapore trip with my colleagues is one for the books, it was a fun filled adventure going around Singapore, visiting Google Singapore office and Expedia, the food and meeting our former students and workmates who are now based there. Last May, I was fortunate to be given a chance to visit Google at Mountain View, CA and attended the  GDG Leaders Summit and Google I/O 2018. Meeting my co-leads from the my own country and the rest of the world is an experience one would appreciate a lot, basically lea

Happy New Year!

It's the last day of the year 2015. Taking time to look back on so many things I witnessed and encountered this year, a mix of adventure, exciting, fun, stressful and heart breaking days meant to happen as a way to learn more things in life and at the end made us stronger than ever and much more wiser. If we pause for a while and try to understand the real meaning of life it is somewhat hard to really understand everything, the purpose, the way it must be lived, the destinations and the endings. With different perspective or views we can't really agree in all points on how it should be done. Each of us lives in a unique world, every day comes as a blessing to all of us and how we spend it will depend on our own individual likings. But as we open our lives to other people we tend to align our days with them which creates a new unique experience for us. No matter how we celebrate life the main goal for me is to be happy with everything, life is not an easy ride and it is a good
