Batang Yagit in PBA ‘08
September 22, 2008
I still can’t find the words to write. It’s almost eight hours now when I came to this quasi utopia state. The sensations I felt hours ago are still fresh. I want to muster the right words to say (or write) but I can’t. All I can think of right at the moment is THANK YOU.
Going back twenty hours before the event, Jehz and I were at home, browsing the internet and checking the progress of the votes for Batang Yagit from technorati. Even at the very last day of the voting period, several people were still able to cast their precious votes. Most of whom are coming from the Visayas and the Mindanao region.

Batang Yagit para sa PBA Bloggers’ Choice Award
September 16, 2008
Ako po si Batang Yagit, isang blogger na taga-Mindanao (Davao City). Ako po ay natutuwa sa pagkakapasok ko bilang nominee sa Philippine Blog Awards Bloggers’ Choice Award. Ito ang pangalawang nomination ko para sa PBA 2008.
Noong nakaraang buwan, nakatanggap ako ng email galing sa mga organizers ng PBA na nagsasabing nanominate ang Digital Puto blog ko para sa Photo Blog na category. Mas higit kong ikinagalak nang malaman kong nakapasok ang Batang Yagit sa mga finalist para sa Bloggers’ Choice Award. Yayks. For the Win ang yagit.
Marami rin sa mga kakilala ko ang nakapasok sa nomination. Kung marami lang kaming mga yagit nag nagblo-blog, pakikiusapan ko ang lahat ng yagit sa world na iboto ang mga kakilala ko. Tsk tsk tsk. Pero dahil nag-iisa lang ako, ibibigay ko ang aking boto kay “Batang Yagit”.
“Wala pang yagit na nanalo ng award, sana ako ang una”.

Goodyear Autocare in Mandaue
September 13, 2008
A week before I left for Manila for the WordCamp Philippines 2008 event, I received a call from Ms. Karla Tecson inviting me (and my blogging friends) to attend the launch of Goodyear’s Autocare center in Maguikay, Mandaue City. Because the event fell on a Thursday (August 28, 2008), only three of us (bloggers) responded to the invitation. Present were McBilly, X and me.

Wordcamp Philippines
September 6, 2008
A lot of people were wondering what happened to my blog after becoming idle for a couple of months. I’ve been very busy with my studies in Cebu City that I was not able to find time for my blog. But that didn’t stop me from getting involved with blogging.
Last Thursday, I flew to Manila for the most awaited event, the WordCamp Philippines 2008. Five months ago, we started doing our preparations for the event in Davao and Manila. But I am very glad that the 8-hour event turned out successfully.
Hundreds of Wordpress users and developers attended Southeast Asia’s first WordCamp. The event was graced by the presence of the creator of Wordpress Matt Mullenweg.
The success of WordCamp Philippines 2008 won’t be possible without the collaboration of the members of the organizing team, the sponsors, the blogger and student volunteers.

Batang Yagit conquers Brunei

Is this street named after the brother of Julia Roberts? Maybe not.
This is just one of the few street names that can be found in Brunei. Jalan is a Malay word which means street in the English language.
During my short stay in Negara Brunei Darrusalam, I learned a few things about the country. Brunei was once under the British Protectorate. It’s a small but powerful country. The population of Brunei won’t even reach a million.
Unlike in Manila, Brunei has an organized road and traffic system. I’m impressed on how disciplined the drivers in Brunei are. Similar to other Asian countries, Brunei’s vehicles employ a right hand drive system. I was having some difficulty in crossing streets ‘coz I get confused on which part of the road to look first. Hehehehe.
Stuffs in Brunei are expensive. While I was exploring their mall, my hand was doing the conversion. The prices in Brunei are almost twice as that of in Malaysia.
I’m supposed to go back to Brunei this Saturday but I opted not to. I feel to tired and I don’t want to spend some dollars for another Brunei trip

Good for you to travel there.
It is interesting that “jalan” refer to street. Di ba diri sa ato ang dtreet is “dalan.” paryente ra jud noh? It is evident our Malay kinship with the people in Borneo island shows up in our languages.
