One of the things I really like going around Singapore is how they go with campaigns and their advertising and marketing strategies. They really go with it! Hand outs, give aways, the works! Yes, sometimes I secretly wish to be part the team that actually was behind in the whole production. Or maybe teams. But yeah.

Get talking Prevent HIV
Campaign card I got
I was walking around and saw this bright pink and orange card right out of the Body Shop.

Turns out, MTV and Body Shop is working hand in hand to help stop spreading HIV, Move your Lips Campaign.

Get now your limited Guarana Lip Butter to help raise the funds for the campaign!

Click here for more details.

PS: I just find it weird. Campaign for HIV on a lip beauty thing. LOL

"Ton, tingnan mo to."

"Shet, si Duane o."
"Antoniette, tigilan mo yang Duane mo!"
"Di, tanga, andyan siya sa pic o!"

Another conversation with my sister.

So..... somehow now I have learned to finally take things lightly on my office work. Funny that maDot told me straightforward "Do you have to be concern on everybody?!" after hearing what really my situation was, and that was a couple of days ago.

Despite the good discovery of getting to get by work, Destiny has found a way to balance my scales still by giving a trade off.

Finally putting on a concrete wall on my time and tasks rather than chalk, I have stepped back and looked at my must-meet-for-2008-and-be-rich list. I do not know how to gasp but my heart completely fell on the floor after checking the list.
Usually when you sign up in a website, you usually get to fill up the portion from what country you are from. Frankly, when you get in the development a.k.a. the Dark Side in website production, you slam into the part of telling yourself.

"NO WAY AM I ENCODING 100+ COUNTRIES!"


Well, of course if you're sadistic, you can go ahead.

If you're a programmer/coder that believes encoders are better off encoding something else and Google is the lovely bible, then you have come to the right place.

"Lucy's on leave?"
"She's sick"
"Why sick?"
"Sick in the head"

The typical office small talks. I think. LOL

I was creating some icons for our mobile app and I had to bump into the dilemma of making a soccer ball.

So am sharing it to the Fifa, vector, illustrator, soccer and football addicts out there.

Just came home after watching a movie with Jen.

Tonight's movie: The Water Horse: Legend of the Deep

Well we came in late so I frankly do not know how two American's ended up in the company of an old man and why it  became a bed time story.

The story was a better version of how modern day child encounters magic. Usually, what we would have in this kind of movie in our plate is kid discovers magic, magic gets misused or discovered, people go by greed but here, it has a little twist. Very subtle really. It is neatly placed along the year 1942 where the war with Germany occurred. Please do not ask me about world history. I dunno but it seems like it has copied Pan's Labyrinth's method. Can someone please verify?

I don't read the newspaper. I don't go on the forums. But thank you for good friends like Paul, the ever fan who urges me to visit applei, I am now somewhat updated.
