Penetensiyahan 2011

Penetensiyahan is a Lenten celebration in Rosario, Batangas in commemoration of the passion of Jesus Christ providing a glimpse of the 14 stations in the Grotto at the foot of Tombol Hill. Christian devotees hold pilgrimages to this place during the Holy Week. Here are photos when I visited the Grotto and took a hike to the Tombol Hill during the Good Friday.

The Automated Election Experience

May 10, 2010, the first Philippine automated election was held. Malfunction of the counting machines to be used for automation is expected. But as the polling started nationwide, this problem had a twin: clustering of the precincts. It’s like the shadow of the automation flaw that was unnoticed since we focused much on the performance of the machines.

Welcome to the NHK

I just discovered a potential anime craze after seeing it on Animax. But before that, I also found out that they are now airing Bleach. [I'm starting to love Animax!] I can’t say at this point in time that it has a nice story but I can relate myself to it. The story is about a college dropout and unemployed Tatsuhiro Satou. Upon my understanding, he is a nerd. He only goes out once a week, sleeps a lot, and an internet addict. Aside from that, he is also experiencing a feeling of despair. He thinks that what’s happening to him is due to some kind of conspiracy. His theory is that a secret organization called Nihon Hikikomori Kyoukai (NHK) uses cute anime girls to create a society filled with jobless and porn obsessed people. Satou wants to get out of his misery but he can’t because he’s afraid to go out by himself until he met a beautiful girl named Nakahara Misaki. She claims that she can cure Satou.

Chick-Autz Christmas Party ’09

This year, we decided to spend our Christmas party at the Blue Coral Resort in Laiya. Just like the previous years, Myk was the punong abala. The date was December 12 and everyone are supposed to go to the resort by afternoon. Unfortunately, I can’t join that trip because I have to take my exams first. Jec also have the same dilemma of going there so we met after my exams. Afterwards, we waited for Shiela, Veejay, and Elaine who were also coming with us. We departed by around 7pm, but we went first to our house in Rosario to leave my car there because it’s more practical if we’ll be riding only in one car.

Nostalgia × New home × Rising from the dead

Finally, after almost two years, a new blog post. My last post was last April of 2008. This blog is now saved in a new server, the new address is http://jamideleon.wordpress.com. You can also see this blog in my Facebook profile by clicking the “RSS/Blog” tab. I wasn’t able to blog for a long time but still, a lot of things happened. The only thing that did not change is my hair, it’s still my own worst enemy. I’m still thin, and maybe becoming even thinner. I am still detained, I mean, schooling in AMA. Hmmm… what else? I really don’t have plan on making sensible post today, I just want to test if this post will appear on my Facebook [friends and wall] and see how it will look like. Another thing: my Blogroll was reset, give me your link if you have a blog.;)
