Makulimlim dito. Umaambon ambon at maya maya’y uulan na. Diyan sa inyo, ang tingkad ng sikat ng araw. Malayong malayo sa panahon gawi rito.

We ate Ramen and Beef Roll for dinner at Santorini, a small Korean restaurant located beside UST. Wasn’t able to take photos of these dishes. It was overwhelming to eat it right away. Anyway, we also tried the Korean ice creams.

Let’s Play Jak en Poy

The 2011 graduating students of the Philippine School of Interior Design (PSID) play “Jak en Poy” as they showcase their home designing skill. But why title a clearly luxurious interior exhibit as such? These bunch of young interior designers gather sustainable elements such as rock, paper, rubber, mud, plastic, bamboo, metal, and mirror that are eminent in the 20 booths.

Nowadays, Filipinos still practice the contentment of simply having a house. Some have a misconception that interior designing is not essential in home planning. Hence, people say “Pwede na yan at least may bahay.” What comes to mind is spending money and not expressing creativity, which is largely what interior design is catering. Through this exhibit, it channels creativity beyond the restrictions of matter - as to money.

Here are some of their works:

Notice the light coming out from the Mindoro-stone flooring?

That girl is made of rubber.

See the Chinese garter?

Those cabinets are made of balikbayan boxes. Mind you, those are capable of carrying heavy objects and last long.

This booth presents the various faces that plastic can imitate.

Who would’ve thought pipes can look this good?

In this living room, mirror tells a story.

This room pictures Alice and Wonderland.

This one is a very feminine lounge.

This room boasts that metal has timeless beauty.

The details on the ceiling are remarkable.

Indeed, luxury does not always have to be spending money. Sometimes it’s just a mix of good aesthetics, creativity, and resourcefulness. Congratulations PSID Advanced Class 2011!

The Fast And Furious: IT And Telecommunication

At this vast changing time, the modern world has become a technology wise and dependent place to live in. Technology, as an output of man’s ideas, provides us new innovations to enhance the world. In the next five years, it wouldn’t be another flash news that the IT and telecommunication industry booze its way up lifting the world’s economy. Information technology has been a mainstream data, information, and knowledge provider. On the other hand, telecommunication hinders geographical distance to be able to communicate.

The immense order for a larger capacity to nest information is at stake in the years coming. As time goes by, more search and discoveries are bound to happen. To abide the roller coaster ride of new ideas and concepts, the public adapt to these things by constantly updating himself through telecommunication and information technology.

A business, through its entirety, has to rely on technology. It would grow poorly or even lapse when its building blocks are not sustained by these helpful devices such as radio, television, computer, and software. These serve as the productivity tools where a business shares information and connect to its customers. Hence, technology has a major role in elating the world’s economy.

Furthermore, people begin to be more accessible to the culture in the midst of film and music being played elsewhere. The physical separation from migrating and working overseas is lessened due to social networking sites and telecommunications. By sustaining communication and sharing information fast and right on track, the information technology and telecommunication industry can put up with the demands of the future.
