“I am a Photographer” and other stereotype idiosyncrasies

33246735826035m.jpgI started my Photoworks classes yesterday under Leo Castillo. This is actually part of my “self development plan” which I’ve been putting off for some time. Photoworks is a word-of-mouth series of classes that started back in 2002 and has been raved as one of the better digital photography classes in the country. Session one was fun – it was defnitely something worth signing up for because it is meant to be experienced rather than “pare turuan mo na lang yung techniques na natuto mo ok?”

Other self development plans include enrolling in a fun physical activity to keep fit. I’m thinking of joining this group with my cousin. Does anyone do Airsoft? I used to enjoy this when I was young, and apparently airsoft guns have now evolved into really cool pieces of machinery. I want the sniper rifle.

Another self development plan includes traveling (alone). Im thinking of going to Singapore or Cambodia if the budget fits. Any suggestions where I can enrich myself somewhere in Asia apart from the Philippines? I realized that I haven’t been on a “real” vacation in three years. And who knows, maybe a rhinoplasty Toronto.

Testing LightBox 2: My Garden

Here’s a cool plugin referred to me by Rico. You can download it here. Click on the thumbnails to see LightBox 2 in action.

What does it do?

It scans your posts for linked images and makes a nice overlay popup out of them. This is much better then linking to a new window oder even open a oldschool javascript popup. The Lighbox-overlay shows a small preloader animation before showing the full image.

WOFEX 2006: The search for the funniest franchise name

My friend and I went to WOFEX 2006 (World Food Expo) to find good stuff to bring home, take pictures with cute mascots and search for the funniest franchise name for 2006. There were some runner ups but we narrowed it down to three.

Third place went to Balut Eggspress.

Second place went to Soy Yummy!
