Youtube recently held this Youtube Video Awards 2006, and they have announced the winners already.
2006 was a pioneering year for online video, user-created content and the YouTube community. You let us into your bedrooms, created new forms of entertainment, and radicalized popular culture. Now it’s time to reflect on what a tremendous year it was and recognize the best of the best during the first YouTube Video Awards.
I guess it’s just time to showcase some of the photos I’ve taken in my photography career…LOL…
Now, who could have thought that Venice exists in the heart of a desert like Doha, Qatar?
This is Villagio, a mall located near Hyatt Plaza and the Khalifa Sports City. The interior design is undoubtedly that of Venice as you can see in the movie Casanova, except of course for the modern business stores surrounding the small river.
In this post, and maybe some more in the future (that’s why the 101, because there might still be 102, 103, and so on), I would like to point out some singularities of living in Qatar. Some of these may not be particularly unique only to Qatar, but as it is different compared to my beloved Pilipinas – anyway, I’ve only lived in these two countries so far.

The Tigbauan church was just featured in Explore Iloilo. This is not the first time that Tigbauan was featured in that site. But this time, the pictures are just simply awesome!
I wanted to post some of the pictures here, and I hope the people from Explore Iloilo won’t mind. Anyway, it has watermarks on it.
Just as I am overwhelmed by our ADSL wireless connection, I would like to spread some links that you may find useful. An old news of former FIDE president, a Filipino for that matter, Florencio Campomanes, had a car accident. Here’s the—
At long last, we now have our wireless internet connection. After 6 months and 7 days stay here in Qatar, we have our wireless internet from Qtel up and running. That is, after waiting for 1 month till we found a place to live in, another month for our residence permit to be issued (residence permit is the primary requirement to transact with Qtel),…
I’m amused by the memory of my younger brother actually literally taking what our parents were trying to teach us back when we were younger. “Mangita kwarta“, which literally translates to “to search for money”, actually means “to make a living”.
