I was a kid of 22. I had my share of birthday blues – watched a pirated movie, ate at Pizza Hut, bought myself a guitar, too.
And then, Jaycelle.
In 2006, I started a blog in Blogger called Happy Obituary Documentaries. It hosted a short-lived documentaries of random pictures I liked to take at that time.
One particular content that’s been lost in time are the graffiti and vandalism on the walls of the now-gone stadium of Montano Hall in Cavite City.
The stuff were mostly teenage angst and raging hormones to the point of murder.
Mary Hope Reyes,

Here’s what I particularly like about Time articles – the Chapters are neatly lined up on top in anchor links. In case you want to jump from one part of an article to another.
The simplest way to implement this is to use the id of the element and put that into the href attribute of your a element.
For example:
[code lang=”html” title=”HTML”]
<!– Activating this link will jump to Chapter Title 1 –>
<a href="#chapter-title-1">Chapter Title 1</a>
<!– Chapter Title 1 –>
<h2 id="chapter-title-1">Chapter Title 1</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
[/code]

Right now in my career, it seems like C is complacent enough because of the fact that it is being sustained to existence by S. Even with the fact that there is a struggle to stay relevant against a sister competitor, V, innovation and quality in the products that we deliver is so-so. We are departmentalized in the sense that there is no perceived changes and development company-wise. Each team can be very innovative on its own – but on the context of working on actual projects – the old ways, which the product development people are stuck in, tramples it.
We are stuck in the ways and popularity of CTM during its heydays. Until now, it’s still the old CTM with an increment in number which is 6. It’s like Pilita Corales trying to stay relevant in the 21st century by being simply Pilita.
But here’s the clincher – C A and PA. Both are innovative products that already hit the market. For the latter, the money put on advertisement is grand – if only they allotted that money to get the PA team in a private beach resort to develop that product – away from S’s Marketing team – the product wouldn’t be as “meh” as it is now.
I am happy and content with the fact that C, as a company, sets its eye on the long term; is being-business driven – that on the long haul all other companies and products will tire themselves up and become irrelevant while C, in its careful planning and superb strategy manages to live on. Slowly but surely.
But the key to almost anything is balance. If one has been on the long-term planning for so long, one has to delve into the short-term, too. People – employees to be exact, don’t want to be stuck inside gray walls, gray cubes while waiting for the glory days to come. They must see a leader or a mentor telling them where we are and where we’re going. It might be through a long and winding road – but the leader makes it sure that there are stopovers along the way.
I dabble in creating a framework in HTML and CSS because I connect how sleek a design is on the outside to its inside and to how good it works.
Here’s Jony Ive in an interview with Time to ’nuff said it:
Objects and their manufacture are inseparable. You understand a product if you understand how it’s made.

I’ve watched Gravity and thought that Ryan Stone was only dreaming when she landed on Earth.
A couple of days after, I’ve seen The Oscars 2014 and heard Karen O’s The Moon Song.
I thought it was the theme song of Gravity so I remixed some clips of the movie while the oh-so-dreamy song plays in the background.
I’m lying on the moon
My dear, I’ll be there soon
It’s a quiet and starry place
Time’s we’re swallowed up in space
We’re here a million miles awayThere’s things I wish I knew
There’s no thing I keep from you
It’s a dark and shiny place
But with you my dear I’m safe
And we’re a million miles awayWe’re lying on the moon
It’s a perfect afternoon
Your shadow follows me all day
Making sure that I’m okay
And we’re a million miles away~ The Moon Song by Karen O
