In the Premiere of Desperate Housewives, Teri Hatcher's character 'Susan' consulted with a gynecologist, who then told her that she might be showing signs of menopause. Teri Hatcher made a remark about Filipino doctors. "Okay, before we go any further, can I check those diplomas? Coz I would just like to make sure they are not from some med school in the Philippines."To say that we, collectively

This is an event that I looked forward to. Yesterday after the clinic, I had to go to Mall of Asia to buy a black shirt and a black fedora hat that I will wear during the event. By 11pm, I was already there at One Esplanade for the Godskitchen Event. DJ Johnboy Lee started the party and everyone enjoyed "Put Your Hands Up for Detroit." Then Superstar DJ John Askew took the center stage and awed

Our subsection had a get-together awhile ago to celebrate Sherwin and Paschy's passing the August 2007 Physician Board Exams. I was one of the earliest birds at their house in Roces Ave. Odette told me that the mass would start at 6PM. Anyways, the food was great! Among the present were Lotlot and Harry, Faye and DJ, Jon A., Odette and me.

Today, I think I have been infected by influenza A or B virus. Just this morning, I had an abrupt onset of fever, headache, myalgias and malaise although my appetite is still good. Luckily, I don't have cough, sore throat and nasal discharge which are usually present. So, I advised myself bedrest and hydration with q.4hr paracetamol.

Today, I became an uncle. My mom is now a grandmother. Coby Albert Aguinaldo III is born. Jane was supposed to have her EDC sometime in the second week of September, however, her obstetrician decided to deliver her baby via cesarean section today. The indication probably is fetal distress because it can't be a cephalopelvic disproportion (Coby's birthweight is just 5.3 lbs).

In the controversial "Wilyonaryo" episode, a contestant named Weng picked the white wheel but later gave it up and chose "Winame" when Revillame's cash offer reached P100,000.It turned out to be a wise decision because the white wheel contained a zero amount. The host revealed the contents of the remaining wheels, showing the P1 million, the house and lot and the P500,000. Revillame then

Since it is a long weekend, Fruj asked the gang for a get-together. Many were called but few came. It was decided to meet at Marina along Timog for a dinner. I arrived around 9pm and saw Mimi, Fruj and Carlo. After the dinner, we went straight to Laffline and had a great laugh with the stand-up comedians. To wrap up the evening, we had frap at the nearby Starbucks. Thanks to Fruj for the dinner,

It was my first time to eat at the Old Swiss Inn which is a 24-hour restaurant that has long been a favorite of yuppies and executives. It is located at the ground floor of Somerset Olympia along Sto. Tomas St. corner Makati Avenue. We went there after work ang the rest was history. Apart from the Zurich Geschnetzeltes which is basically shredded pork with mushroom cream sauce and potatoes, I had

It was my first time to watch a spelling bee. I chanced upon one at ESPN last night before I went to sleep. The emcee/judge would announce the word and the contestant would ask for the definition, etymology, alternative pronunciation etc. It was my first time to hear words like laquear, rognon, aniseikonia, oberek, cyanophycean, zoilus, vituline, pappardelle and videlicet. Two contestants reached

Even if typhoon Egay was on its strongest, I still went to the Embassy Superclub to enjoy Fierce Angel. Fierce ngel is the new record label by Mark Doyle - the creator of Hed Kandi. Eric Kupper, the DJ/producer, was the DJ that night. It was still a blast even if it was raining cats and dogs outside.

I rarely remember my dreams, if I even have one, probably I don’t reach the R.E.M. stage of my sleep. Anyways, last night, I was able to remember the gross details, not sure though if it was in color or in black and white. I was in a big house with friends, probably in a party or something. Then, they all wanted to leave, then I said: “Wait! I need to pee!” They rushed outside the house while I

I've always been a Josh Groban fan and I've listened to his first two albums, Josh Groban and Closer. Recently, I had a copy of Awake, his latest album, and listened to all the English songs. I haven't had the chance to pay attention to the Spanish and Italian songs. In this album, it is the first time that I've heard Josh sing in falsetto, well others call it headtone, and it is quite obvious in

I didn't know that a given monitor requires more power to display a white screen than a black screen. So, Heap Media made a black version of Google in order to save energy, even a little bit. Hence, the birth of Blackle.We believe that there is value in the concept because even if the energy savings are small, they all add up. Secondly we feel that seeing Blackle every time we load our web

I'm trying to customize this template from GeckoandFly because I'm tired of my old template. It's still a 3-column template but the first column is static. I'll change the color scheme and the column width. I'll change my template as soon as I'm finished with the modifications.
