Passport Application / Renewal Now Accessible at SM Manila, Megamall and Robinsons Galleria

October 18, 2012 5 Comments
     The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) opened its Consular Offices at SM Manila, Megamall and Robinsons Galleria. This is for the convenience of those that aren't near the main office in Roxas Boulevard, Pasay City.


     Don't get to excited and rush to those DFA Offices because they will not accommodate you if you don't have an appointment. So, to set an appointment, click here.

     Take time to read the reminders specially if this is your first time to apply for a passport (like me). Fill up the application form, set the date & time of your appointment and confirm the email they will send you.

These are some important things you need to know:

My first attend to the BDJ Fair 2012!

October 16, 2012 2 Comments
     It's already 12:30pm when I reached Mall of Asia and rushed to the Music Hall for the Belle de Jour Fair 2012 hoping not to be late. Luckily, I made it in time for the Bloggers Extraordinaire seminar. Wiw! It might be a lucky day for me because I instantly won a  Bauhaus Jeans in the raffle. 

     Then the emcee called out the first speaker who is a travel enthusiast, Ms Patty Laurel. (follow her on twitter) She gave some insights about her passion in travelling & shared some useful tips, too. For me, the best thing she said was to "Invest in Experience". There are some things you just  cannot explain to other people unless they experience it. Same goes with travelling. 


     I just remember, my mom used to be an OFW before when I was a kid. One day, she told me that if fate permits her, she will still work abroad even at her age now. I am already working so I don't see any reason for her to do that, so I asked why. She said that going to another country widens your understanding to different culture & beliefs. Now I am curious and would like to go to other places and create my own journeys.

Anti-Cyber Crime Law Hackers ng Pinas, bumanat na naman!

September 27, 2012 2 Comments
     Pagdating ko sa opisina, matic na sakin ang magcheck ng FB notifications at Twitter Feeds. Bigla akong natigilan sa isang tweet na sumambulat sa akin. 
Another one bites the dust: Anonymous defaces PHL IPO website (): "Expect us." | PHOTO:
Source: Twitter link

     Kahapon kasi pumutok ang balita na nahack ang website ng BSP ng grupo na kung tawagin ay "Anonymous Philippines". But wait there's more! 7 government sites pala ang hinack at ni-defaced nila! 
  • Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP)
  • Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS) 
  • Department of Environment and Natural Resources - Region III
  • Smokefree Philippines of the Department of Health
  • Pilipinas Anti-Piracy Team (PAPT) -  an inter-agency and multisectoral task force fighting intellectual property pirates
  • American Chamber of Commerce in the Philippines (Amcham) 
  • Institute for Development and Econometric Analysis (IDEA)

At ang latest nila ngayong araw ay ang PHLIPO site:


     Na-curious tuloy ako ngayon sa CyberCrime Law na yan kaya naisipan kong mag-research. Nasa site ng "Official Gazette" ang laman ng Republic Act No. 10175 o ang new Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 <click here>. May mga section sections pa at nakalagay din kung sino ang mga lumagda sa batas.

My First Vexel Art

September 20, 2012 1 Comments

My first try to vexel using Adobe Illustrator CS3 (^_^). I searched for a high-res image of Angelina Jolie and this is what I've got <click here>. I'm not sure how is long the process because I did this during my free time in the office. (Hihihi..) This gave me back pain & burning feelings in the hand/wrist but its all worth it. I enjoyed doing it and will come up with more digital art soon. J
