Wolfgang is gonna rock again our Christmas. Previously they have the "Black Christmas Project" wherein they introduced their newest Album "Villians". Also the "Black Christmas Project" is when they announced that they are back.

This time they are making a scene again and getting back to the mainstream. But unfortunately I won't be able to go this event as I have work during that day. You can have a peek on the Black Christmas Project concert on my captured video during that event.

Music : My Everything by Cathy Nguyen and Randolph Permejo



I've come across this video by accident and first time I listened to this song I got mesmerized with it instantly. And I say to myself that this would be my wedding song on my wedding day. The problem is that I still don't have a bride to be.

I discovered this by browsing Cathy Nguyen's uploaded videos. Also I've accendentally stumble upon Cathy Nguyen's video of her cover of Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours". She look so pretty on that video and have a really great voice. If you want to check out Cathy Nguyen's video here's the link to her youtube account "http://www.youtube.com/user/lilcdawg".

I just can't seem to get this song out of my mind. I've also learned how to play this piece as how Randolph did. If I perfected every melody of this song I'll create a video response to this video.

I even listened to it religiously to memorized the lyrics. Singing "i just cannot get you off my mind". I hope someday I get a chance to sing this with Cathy, but I know it's like wishing the unthinkable.

Enjoy the video as I enjoyed it.

Food : Sango Master Burger!



I am a burger lover, whenever I hear a new Burger Joint I always plan to go there and try it. For those who's not well aware of this newly discovered resto. It is located along Amorsolo St. ground floor of the Creek Side Mall. You wont miss it if you passed by Amorsolo St. corner V.A. Rufino.

I've tried different kinds of burger from grilled to fried. From one food chain to another. But this time Sango burger is very different from all other burgers I've tasted. If you closely look at the picture above you can notice that there is a sauce on it. That is what they called "Meat Sauce". Warning when eating this burger expect it to be messier than you think. But when you start eating it, you wont mind getting messy.

The image above is what they called "Master Cheese Burger". It consist of I think an almost quarter pound of Pattie, tomato, minced onion, cheese and the very tasty meat sauce. This is one very delicious burger, I highly recommend this to all my friends to try it sometime. They also have other dishes like rice meals and topping. Also beverages here is great, shakes and others.

If you've tried it let me know if its worth it.

T.V. : Densha Otoko (JDrama)

Densha Otoko (電車男, Train Man?) is a Japanese television drama that aired on Fuji Television. It is based on the Densha Otoko story, which has also been portrayed in other media.

The drama's 11 episodes were aired on Fuji TV from July 7 to September 22, 2005 (with a special episode on October 6, 2005). A two hour long TV special, Densha Otoko Deluxe, aired on September 23, 2006, featured a visit to Tahiti. Pony Canyon released the series on a DVD box set on December 22, 2005. It also aired in Taiwan's Videoland Japan from January 24, 2006 (with a special episode on December 28, 2006), and in Hong Kong's TVB Jade from April 15, 2006 (with a special episode on January 27, 2007).

Overview

The plot follows the life of Yamada after a chance encounter with Saori, when he rescues her from a drunken man on the train. Saori sends him a set of Hermès tea cups as a thank you. Relying on advice from users on a website he is able to find the courage to change and eventually confess his feelings to Saori. The drama is filled with various dream sequences in which the characters use to portray their fantasies.

See this clip on how Yamada rescued Hermes.



I've enjoyed watching all the episodes of this JDrama, never was a dull moment. But the Yamada character is a bit over done, nonetheless it's a great series. Also one reason I got caught on watching this series is because of Saori(Ito Misaki). She's one of the most prettiest face I've ever seen. Very innocent and angelic look that really fits to her role.

This series will get you roll on the floor laughing out loud(ROTFLOL).

T.V. : Ghost Whisperer Season 5 Episode 9 (Lost In The Shadows)

"Aiden meets the ghost of a little girl who passed away from leukemia. Melinda worries for her son's safety when the ghost threatens Melinda to stay out of her way." source www.tv.com

It's my first time to give a review on a TV series and I hope you'll understand if sometimes on this article you'll get lost in my words.

OK for starters I'll apologize to those who haven't seen this episode yet if I may slip some spoilers on this case.

To rate this episode 1 is the lowest and 10 is the highest. I'll give it a 10 and let me tell you why. First is that from start to finish of this episode the suspense never stopped. A few twist and turns in the middle to add a little flavor on it. This episode also gives a lot of moral lesson on how parents should handle their kids at a very delicate stage. Melinda(Jennifer Love Hewitt) as a mother to Aiden portraits a very loving and protective mother to her son. If you do have kids on your own you can feel how Melinda and Jim worry about their son.

Several new revelations on the world of the ghosts for this episode that will make you wonder a bit and wait for the next episode to be aired. Also speaking of revelations a possible new character will arise on this case that can add a little more on the story.

I can say that this is one of the most suspense episode for this season. I can say that this episode is a must see one. Even for those who haven't watched an episode of Ghost Whisperer, for sure you'll get lost somewhere on the plot but you'll enjoy it anyways.

Photography : Tilt-shift photography

"Tilt-shift photography" refers to the use of camera movements on small- and medium-format cameras, and sometimes specifically refers to the use of tilt for selective focus, often for simulating a miniature scene. Sometimes the term is used when the shallow depth of field is simulated with digital postprocessing; the name may derive from the tilt-shift lens normally required when the effect is produced optically.

"Tilt-shift" actually encompasses two different types of movements: rotation of the lens plane relative to the image plane, called tilt, and movement of the lens parallel to the image plane, called shift. Tilt is used to control the orientation of the plane of focus (PoF), and hence the part of an image that appears sharp; it makes use of the Scheimpflug principle. Shift is used to change the line of sight while avoiding the convergence of parallel lines, as when photographing tall buildings.

To better understand this see examples on this page:

I've tried it but I think I need a proper lens for it check out my work at:

Health : Lavender Scent Oil

I've heard several information about Lavender scent and I've tried researching more on this and I've come across this site. See link below.


http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/natural-essential-oils/health-benefits-of-lavender-essential-oil.html

It didn't know that lavender oil is this helpful to our human body. It was mentioned on the article posted "Sleep: Lavender essential oil induces sleep and hence it is often recommended for insomnia." I did have a chance to have a Lavender scent oil to be burned on the Oil burner thanks to my friend who gave it as a gift on my birthday.

Tried it and I can say it works. Due to I was leaving on a rented place, just moved in 3 months ago. Sometimes I was having trouble getting to sleep early. But when I started to burn the Lavender scent Oil I was able to go to sleep without a problem.
But sometimes it will let you sleep too good and you will end up late going to work. But its not a big deal, the good part is that you get the needed rest you needed for your body to heal naturally.

Try it, if it didn't work maybe try something else...

Enjoy!

Jenson Button teams with Lewis Hamilton.

To bad Kimi won't be racing this 2010 season he's one of the most exciting driver I've ever seen. But on this case Jenson Button is one of the most promising driver on this case now. But I still have one Big question will Lewis Hamilton give up his position as "Number One" driver for Mercedes Maclaren? Or will Jenson Button accept the "Number Two" driver even if he's the last year's 2009 Grand Prix Champion.

Celebrities : Jomar Hilario

I've first heard the name Jomar Hilario from one of Bo Sanchez's talks. Bo is indeed a very reliable good source of inforamtion. When Bo endorsed Jomar Hilario I didn't think twice to research about Jomar's work.

I've been on the Information technology field for 6 years now, I've seen a lot of techonologies from proprietary to open source techonology. Internet is the best way you can get information on everything you want to know.

At first I've tried having my own web page, but the problem is that I'm not a web designer so my first Web Page design was design by a real web designer and happens to be my friend so I got it for free. But when my website debut I suddenly realized I need to have content on it due to I'm paying for a monthly webhosting for it. That's when I got troubled thinking what to update on my website. At first I think that technology topics are enough, but I'm wrong I ran of out of words to say when I try to write an article on a certain technology. So I decided to stop my webhosting becasue it's not going anywhere and I'm paying for a monthly webhosting which is not cost effective on my case.

Then, I've heard that there's a technology where in you can have a web site on your own without paying for monthly dues. That technology is called blogger.com. On this case I got so excited and started blogging with out planning. Then comes a day that I ran out again of topics to discuss on my blog.

Recently, I had a chance to research on Jomar's techniques(tips and tricks) on blogging and earning online. This gives me an Idea to start blogging again and now I have a goal to earn online to help me on my financial needs. I've read recents posts by Jomar on his website jomarhilario.com and it gives me a lot of ideas to start blogging again. I've also signed up for his 30 day free trial online tutorials. I'am also planning to attend on one of his live seminars or if not avail the online seminar.

So far it has been giving me a lot of information in which I myself was not aware. This really helps me to decide on starting a blog page again. Topics were just flowing in my mind. Plans are slowly getting in my head on how to maintain the site updated.
