Roti Mum

I've been meaning to try Roti Mum for the longest time but the idea of eating a big bun was not exactly my idea of an indulgent snack.

But how wrong am I. It was absolutely delicious. Rich coffee flavor, which I really like since I'm a coffee drinker. It's sweet and extremely soft. Probably one of the softest bread I've eaten aside from Le Ceour de France's milk loaf.

At Php 50, it's quite an expensive bread but it's so worth it. Each bun is really big. Big enough to sate a person's appetite. I'll definitely be buying this again.

Red Mango

Last week, I tried Red Mango in Eastwood Mall when I had an exam at IBM Business Services. The first thing I noticed was how expensive it was! I forgot the exact prices but I think my order, which was a large frozen yoghurt with blueberry and mango, was about Php 150.

But the serving was really big. Bigger than The White Hat. Still too expensive for a mid-afternoon snack. But that's what you pay for something healthy.

Anyway, it's consistency was really creamy. Not too tangy, which was disappointing. I like my fro-yo tangy so that I know it is yoghurt and not ice cream. It did feel like I was eating ice cream with fresh fruits.

Despite these negative points, I still like it. What can I say - I'm a sucker for desserts. I don't know if I'll ever return though. There's The White Hat which I like better, is less expensive, and more convenient.

Supr Flickr 0.4

EDIT: I will stop releasing Supr Flickr due to copyright issues.

Supr Flickr 0.4 is released. This version fixes issues with the add-on showing JavaScript errors as well as working with sites other than Flickr.

Supr Flickr is a compilation of Greasemonkey scripts for Flickr. This add-on adds the following functionalities to Flickr:

* Adds a simple rich edit interface (Bold, Italic, Blockquote, Link) input textarea in Flickr where you can use HTML.

* Adds links to different sizes directly to a Flickr photo page, generates html code to easily copy'n paste thumbnail & description, and automatically loads your 20 most used tags when you click "Add Tag."

* It adds an icon_reply link at each of the comments under your photo (highlighted above on the left hand side). When you click on the link, the buddy icon html code will be added into the Add your comment box, where you can show nicely who your replies are directed at (see the result highlighted above on the right hand side).

* Removes any award comments from Flickr photos.

* Allows you to send your Flickr image to multiple groups.

* Display a Google Map in the Additional Information section of a Flickr photo page, if location info is available.

* Adds useful links to external services to the user sub-menu. Based on Browse by Interesting script by steeev and Scout Link by netomer.

Delayed

The Peak, as taken by my parents last August, 2008.

My sister and I were supposed to go to Hong Kong the weekend of May 1, Labor Day. But then due to our being both busy, we weren't able to book our tickets until prices have jacked up considerably.

So we settled to go to Hong Kong on the weekend of Bonifacio Day in late November. It's okay. The later the travel date, the more I can save. I probably should have a job by then.

But I really want to go somewhere just with my friends, without a definite itinerary, while staying in a budget hotel. I want to be a backpacker. I've always told this to my friends, but none share the same ideas. Hhmmm. Maybe I should persuade them more.

But for now, I'm more than happy to stay comfortably in a nice hotel. My sister's paying for everything.

What the future would bring

What now?

I've been neglecting this blog for quite some time now but only because I've got more important things to attend to.

I've been reviewing for my board exam and fortunately, was able to pass it. The celebrations are done and over.

What now?

I am currently being considered to be part of Sun Cellular's engineering management trainees. During the interview, the panelists asked me one question I couldn't forget: "Are you a leader?"

All my life I feel like I've always been a follower. And a good one at that I believe. Yes, I became group leader here and there, but was I a leader of a large group? No.

And I couldn't help asking myself: "Am I mature enough to be a manager?" As I was riding on the bus home, I further examined myself. I regretted not joining as many clubs and organizations as I can during high school and college. But then again, maybe I would've failed more subjects had I joined.

But then I came to realize one thing: I feel that I want to be a leader. I feel that I am ready. It's true that I'm scared of the unknown. Scared of failing. But the desire is there.

I'll just hope that the whole me is willing.
