[Macromedia Flash™ MX] |
Last Night, I tried to study how to make a frame-by-frame animation in Macromedia Flash™ MX. Because I have an ambition to create a full flash version of Occupied Space. And to develop my skills and apply it to my future layouts. I have created my first frame-by-frame animation in a form of a logo. And I know that it's not that good. I still have many more things to learn. Not too bad for a begginer like me. I have created atleast 4 animation in Flash™. And about the 16th vesion of Occupied Space, It is still under developed because of lack of resources. I am looking for useful and fun materials to be used in the "You" page. This page is dedicated to my beloved visitors. Just a sign of appreciation for visiting my website and signing my Guestbook.
[Jasmine Trias: Fil-Am Idol Live in Manila Concert]
Jasmine Trias will be having a Live Concert here in Manila at October 16, 2004 7:30 PM at the Araneta Colliseum. There will be a Guests of Male Filipino Singers. They are Jay R, Erik Santos and Christian Bautista. It is sponsored by /herbench, SMART Padala, Petron Blaze, Mcdonalds and more. Last October 11, 2004, The City Mayor of Cavite (Cavite is where Jasmine Trias was born but migrated to Hawaii and spend most of her life there), declared that October 11 is Jasmine Trias Day. Can you believe it? Is that how Jasmine Trias important in Cavite to mark October 11 in Cavite's History as Jasmine Trias Day? Sure why not? Imagine your International "Kababayan" Star coming back from the United States with Flying Colors. Even Jasmine Trias did not won the American Idol, she had brought recognition to Filipino's living inside and outside the Philippines. Jasmine Trias will be going back to Hawaii in October 16, 2004 after her Concert here in Manila. Early this day, I've readed the Philippine Star Newspaper (Philippine Star is one of the popular Broadsheets here in the Philippines) and got Jasmine Trias on the Frontpage. It shows Jasmine Trias shaking hands with current Philippine President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. President Arroyo invited Jasmine Trias for a Malacañang Palace (Malacañang Palace is the Philippine President's temporary residence while he/she is the current President of the philippines) visit. I remember when Jerry Yan (Jerry Yan is one of the Heartrob members of the famous Taiwanese group F4 way back Summer 2003. Jerry Yan (Dao Ming Ziu) starred in Meteor Garden TV show which San Chai (Barbie Xu) is her beloved Leading Lady. The Story revolved around the 4 Millionaire/Billionaire Familes which Dao Ming Xiu's family and his other 4 friends are one of the Richest family in Taiwan), also visited Malacañang Palace just last Summer 2004. And I found a Showbiz News column which says that Jasmine Trias wants a day off. Jasmine Trias wants to go in one of the famous Beaches here in the Philippines during her stay since October 8, 2004 (the day she came here in the Philippines) but unfortunately, due to many Activities, and so many endorsements, she doesn't have time to relax.

[Welcome Home Jasmine! Love Ko 'To] |
CHORUS: Here I am, before you all. Hear me now, finally I'm home. This stage and I, we're inseparable. I'm singing my Song, (Papara papa) love ko 'to.
Our Filipina American Idol Jasmine Trias has teamed up with Mcdonalds to create this beautiful Song. It is very Inspirational. And makes my filipino pride rise. We have gone again to Glorietta Mall Ayala Makati yesterday to buy my Birthday Cake (Yes, it's a belated Birthday alright). We almost checked all the Goldilocks branch all over Glorieta Mall but all of them have sold out all Pre-made Birthday Cakes. So I have no choice but to buy a Commercial cake instead. I saw a cake named "Black Forest" beside the Counter. It is an 8x12 Chocolate cake with chocolate strips all over and Peaches and Cherry toppings. The small version already cost P385.00 But the 8x12 cost P450.00 so I think will be wise to choose the bigger one instead of the smaller one because the price has lower difference. After buying the cake, we walked our way to Mcdonalds to check out Jasmine Trias' Trio combo meal. It consist of 1 pc. Large Fries, 1 pc. Mcfloat and 1 Jasmine Trias CD. The CD has a total of 4 Cuts: 2 Love ko 'to tracks and 2 Love ko 'to Minus One. Jasmine Trias is a Filipino who was born here in the Philippines but migrated and growed in Hawaii. That's why she always have a flower in her right ear. Infareness to Jasmine, she's so cute and beautiful with and without a flower in her right ear. I remember yesterday while ordering at Mcdonalds, all of the woman in the crew has their own flower inserted at their right ear to simulate the "Jasmine Trias" character. Even the background Music that i heared from the speakers wer'e playing Love ko 'to simultaneously. But early on that day, I remember watching MTB: Ang Saya Saya (ABS-CBN) noon-time show. There is a contest named "Sing ala Jasmine Trias Contest Grand Finals". There we're 5 Grand Finalists and each of them sang all the songs of Jaya (Jaya has a title here in the Philippines as Sould Diva. She is a popular Female singer here). So the winner is Grand Finalist # 2. Her voice is beautiful as Jasmine so I think the judges descision is very reasonable. Then afterwards Jasmine came in and congratulates the Winner. Afterwards Jasmine sang his Mcdonalds Single Love ko 'to. By the way, "Love ko 'to" is Mcdonalds slogan here in the Philippines. So if you are wondering what is the connection between Jasmine Trias and Mcdonalds, well before back in Hawaii, Jasmine's favorite Fast Food Restaurant is Mcdonalds. She always ates Mcfries (French Fries) and Mcfloat (Soft Drink with Sundae on top). So when Mcdonalds Corporation discovered it, they asked Jasmine Trias to promote their Company here and abroad. Since Jasmine love Mcdonalds, she agreed. After all, she didn't won American Idol before so she doesn't have a Career back in the United States. And about the Song "Love ko 'to", actually I'm really wondering who composed this song because it is so beautiful. It is very inspirational. Knowing that the singer of the song is a proud filipina came home from Hawaii, we also filipinos feel proud.

[My 15th Birthday] |
Yesterday I celebrated my 15th Birthday with my Family and Friends. Actually, the night before my Birthday, I was crying because my Father Insisted me to go to School the next morning regardless of my Birthday. Even for just one (1) day. In the day of my Birthday, I woke up early about 5:00 AM and I am planning to do the "Cutting Class" thing. I thought I could go to Church and stay there the whole day and Pray so that I can thank God for the Blessings that I recieved. I also planned to ask God to pray for my Family, Friends and all of my Loved ones. But my Mother have setted up a plan. My Mother let me Father think that I attended the School by letting my Father go to work and leave our House first so that He will not know that I will not go to School in that day. Before my Father comes Home at 12:30 PM, My Mother told me to go an Internet Cafe near our house and wait for her to go there and afterwards go to Glorietta Mall Ayala Center Makati City. I surfed the Internet while waiting for her with my little Brother. I waited for about two hours and a Half (2 ½ hrs.) So we rushed to Glorietta and Watched "Feng Shui" Movie. The Movie is a horror movie that made my body chilled with terror. I rated Feng Shui as one of the best Filipino made horror movie I watched. Because the previous movies I saw was just plain corny. No wonder why Feng Shui is breaking Box Office Records Globally. It was released in the Philippines and the United States as well as other Asian Neighboring Countries. After the movie, we checked out the Price of Nokia 3660 Celfone because my Mother promised me to give me a brand new celfone ten (10) days from the day of my Birthday. So if my Birthday is October 7, 2004 at 12:00 AM and the day is Thursday, the 10 days will end at exactly October 17, 2004, 12:00 AM and the day is Saturday. But that is ok for me. I understand my Mom because the Celfone I want is not kinda cheap. We roamed around and checked out all the Celfone stores at Glorietta and found out that all of them post the same price. it really cost P13,500. Unfortunately, I only have P7,000 from my Birthday. So I really have to wait for 10 days if I want to have that Celfone. But the fun thing is the great Key Features of the Nokia 3660:
1. It has an Integrated Camera with Night Mode and Video Recorder with RealOne™ Player for Video Playback.
2. High Resolution Screen for clearer viewing of Pictures and Video and has 65,536 colors display.
3. Tri-band Celfone and can connect through high speed GPRS, WAP, BlueTooth™ and Infrared at 40kbps or higher.
4. Downloadable Java Games, Polyphonic Ringtones/ Monotones, Pictures, Wallpapers etc.
5. It has an MP3 application that can store Music and a loud handsfree speaker.
6. It has a removable External Memory "Multimedia Card" for storing Multimedia Contents inside.

[Occupied Space version 16 featuring Get Backers] |
Sheesh! After weeks of boredness, I finally decided to make the 16th version of Occupied Space. This time, i featured Get Backers. Another Milestone in this version is that I used Brushes for the background. Thanks to Kenekila.net for her free brushes. By the way, I officially announced that on October 7, Thursday is my 15th Birthday! Please don't forget to greet me on that day. LOL. But if you do, i will truly appreciate it and of course, I will give you thanks. So October 7 as my birthdate makes me a Libra guy. If you will ask me my Wishlist, I will only wish 3 things:
1. Brand New Celfone (probably Nokia 3650)
2. Good Health and many more birthdays to come, and
3. Goodlucks to my loved ones especially for my family and friends.
And I planned not to go to school on the day of my Birthday because I don't want to get pissed off. Because my Classmates always tease me. On my Birthday, I just want to feel good and enjoy the whole day with my family and friends.
