Blog This! Extension for Google Chrome Beta

Guys, i'm back to Google Chrome! and this time i'm using the Beta version, because i got lured by this Blog This! extension i saw at Blogger Buzz.

The Blog This! extension basically gives you faster access to creating blog posts at blogger. by installing the extension, a small blogger icon will be added to your browser toolbar that when you click on it, the post editor will load on a small pop-up window... then you're good to go (or blog).

now that's really cool. makes blogging easier. :)

note that the Blog This! extension is only available for Google Chrome Beta.

so what's missing?

- the formatting options are pretty limited (bold, italics, forecolor, link, blockquote and spellcheck). i'm looking for the image uploader, jump break, and text alignment. they're pretty useful for me.

- labels field. i can't add labels with this which is too sad.

- preview.

.:: since it's a fresh release, i'm hoping it'll improve as time flies by or as users demand. then again they probably made the extension for people who want to be able to blog in a jiffy, unlike me and a lot others who are so OC with their entries. hehe

(blogged via Blog This!)
(edited via dashboard just to add Label)

impulsive?

another question! yehey! hehe

#1) what would you do to save the world? :)
- honestly, i'd rather rule the world or rule the internet! then again, if i were to really really answer your miss universe question, here's what i'd probably do: first i'll observe what in the world needs saving. if it involves ending world hunger, warfare, racial discrimination or global warming --- I REFUSE. LOL, i mean realistically speaking, i can't end any of those cos i'm a freaking contributor to the world's largest problems. hmm, maybe global warming. i'll save up for a hybrid car? T_T; anyway, uuuhhhm, sorry i'm too much of a villain for this wahahaha!



i bought another jacket. =____=
i can't say if it was impulsive of me, cos it has been on my wishlist for a couple of months now... but, i didn't really plan to buy it today, it just happened that i saw it, liked it, then bought it. anyway, it's a UP jacket. hahaha no regrets! heheheheheeee

but it also meant having NO MONEY FOR DIVI (LOL just how much is that jacket?!?)!!!
aaaahm, it's only 795, but i only allotted 1000 for divi thinking it's enough since i don't need to splurge. and err, i only want a new wallet (kipling or nothing) and dvds. i think 500 would be enough na nga eh. yaaah, like what else do i need?

onga pala, your gifts. hahaha

answers! XD

yehey! someone asked me something via the form on the right LOL

#1) anything you wanna ask me?
- void! haha

#2) are you going into law school?  you sound like a lawer to me.  please take that as a compliment.
- wow! thank you! but no, i'm not going into law school. no plans to. >:D

Atty. Lorna Kapunan on The Bottomline (with Boy Abunda)

i was trying to look for a video but failed. :( by far, it's one of the most intelligent interviews i've ever watched. mind that i don't really listen to interviews because most of the time the questions are crap and the interviewer lacks proper feedback or is just reading out the questions and staging a reaction AND the interviewee's answers are all scripted.

anyway, Atty Lorna Kapunan is Hayden Kho's lawyer. her being a woman stirred up a lot of intrigue as she is fighting against a case involving the violation of women's rights. her sense of feminism was questioned the moment she agreed to handle the case.

the interview tackled a lot of things, not centering on just the Hayden-Katrina issue but basically everything that is touched by her expertise, law. i liked it because they (referring to Boy and Atty Kapunan) talk so fluently, the questions are straight to point and Atty Kapunan's answers where both direct to the point, and intelligent.

in fact i learned a lot from that interview, mostly words of wisdom and political puns... heeeeryugow:



// love is giving someone power over you.

// how to deal with negative intrigues. treat it like mud. when someone throws mud at your face, never clean it by rubbing it in cos it'll only spread further. rather, let it dry, then flick it way.

win. >:D

// they also talked about Intellectual Property Rights and how it is so loosely implemented in the Philippines. i learned that IPR is under a treaty that the entire world agreed to, so your works (books, artworks, anything copyrighted and trademarked) are protected even in the US (and all parts of the world).

LOL and being a major pirate that i am, i'm quite happy that we aren't so strict with this rule. talk about the dozens of books and mp3s i downloaded online, and the gross amount of photocopied books i spent so many sleepless nights on. yes, dvds too. >:}

// she said she can't quite relate to politics. well, i can't relate to politicians and their skewed concept of nationalism. but i agree with her when she said some candidates must be lined up against a wall, and get shot.

// BA: Bottom Line, are lawyers liars? Yes or No?
LK: Yes, but i'm lying. :)

WIN.

sacked

read: UPLB Professor Sacked Over Sex Harassment Case 
 
i just heard some shocking news minutes ago, that Prof Fulgencio 'Pol' Mojica got kicked out of his teaching post upon being found guilty of sexual harassment. i knew it was in his nature to harass his hot male students MENTALLY, but i didn't think he'd go overboard materializing his fantasies.

so, sir Mojica was my english2 teacher. quite frankly, he isn't my favorite teacher but yeah, i learned from him naman. hehehe he's the strictest most meticulous teacher i've ever met. have i mentioned he's gay? that should be obvious if you read the news. LOL

last paragraph of the news article says he can still appeal for the decision, i guess he would do that... just so he could file a formal resignation after. sounds better than having a 'fired' record on your resume. anyway. best of luck to him.

my grade would've been 2.00 on that demanding subject but he marked me absent one time when i was actually present, so i didn't get my attendance incentive. i almost cried out to him but he was too mataray. maybe if i were a tall, mestizo and handsome guy, he'd cave in. haha bitter.

jotter pad

i'm excited for a lot of things!

a) the geek shirt that mika designed! i just ordered one and deposited the payment awhile ago! its says: GEEKS WILL CTRL+S THE WORLD. freakin cooool!!! excited to have it! >XD

b) jotter pad!!! it's a blank notepad i bought awhile ago at national bookstore and it's crazy cheap. 39.25 pesos only!!! you know what, i was supposed to buy the 200 worth drawing journal but i couldn't find it anymore. then i saw this a5 sized sketchpad with a moss green metallic sheen cover that says Jotter Pad and mehn, i fell in love with it! hehehe i'm excited to draw! >:D uhhh, i still have another sketchpad so i've decided to dedicate that one to my staedtler triplus fineliner series (anyway it only has less than 20 pages)... and jotter pad... will be my new drawing journal!!! yeheeeey!!! >XD

c) i'm excited to read this book entitled Search Me: The Surprising Success of Google by Neil Taylor. i also just bought it awhile ago... for 20 pesos. LOL whattasale, considering it's about Google? the writer must be a major flop. but then i'm not really interested with google... i just want to have something to read. which reminds me, i haven't finished The Graveyard Book yet. hehe

d) divisoria. or quiapo in general. i don't care if it's freaking overcrowded there. i need to complete my dvd wishlist this year:
- Ouran Highschool Host Club (because i lost my high-quality-stolen-from-Astra-copy and i miss Tamaki so muuuuch!)
- Gossip Girl Season 1 (yes. latebloomer here)
- Heroes Season 1 (yadda yadda yadda)
- Harry Potter 1-6
- One Tree Hill Season 2-6
- movies, anything actually... i want my own copy District 9.
oh and there's a new cool movie coming up! i forgot the title! something like The Fourth Sign? sort of.  ALIENS. yeah. and milla jovovich. >8D taraaaa!!!!

plus, i want to search divi for a new wallet. preferrably an imitation of that red kipling wallet i saw last week. and i want a new backpack? haha

yesss, where are you $$$$$???

Judge Jocelyn Solis-Reyes to handle Maguindanao Massacre case

at last, someone brave enough agreed to take on the fearful case. and a woman, on top of that. it's completely understandable that no one would want to handle the case, let alone get involved with it, because the risks are dangerous. even someone with a strong sense of justice would be doubtful if it means putting his and his family's life in evident danger.

that's why at some point, i applaud this woman's courage. news says she agreed to it without hesitation, and even refused to have police bodyguards around her saying she'll just call for it when she needs one. does she understand the situation she's now in? does she know the dangers of being unprotected? or does she not trust the police? thinking maybe these guys would soon turn out to be after her, and not for her? after all, she's faced with extremely powerful people who use only two tools to get what they want: money, and death threats.

why she agreed to handle the case so fast brings in some kind of suspicion too. has something fishy happened between ampatuan and reyes? was this talked over a cup of tea (and a million bucks perhaps?), that's why she's fearless of her life?

we'll wait for the trial then. but seriously, if it turns out to be the latter, i will be extremely disappointed with the world and condemn Philippine politics for life. the entire world knows what the most obvious, most righteous, and most lawful court decision to this case is. and if it happens otherwise, wtf, God bless the Philippines.
