Last night I dreamt that I chose somebody else. Does that make us even? Hehe…

Somebody else or someone else? I just found out that both are correct and interchangeable. It just depends on the writer’s preference. As you may have noticed, I’m more of a somebody than a someone.

Sometimes, it really is just about the small things.

The littlest compliment that you gave your co-worker this morning may have been the one that made his or her day. The quick hello, the smile, and the attention that you gave someone you met along the hallway may have been the ego-boost that he or she needed. The empathic nod that you made while listening to a friend may have been the life saver that nobody bothered to give.

And you never even broke a sweat doing so.

Sometimes, the smallest things are those that really count.

I’m thankful that I’m surrounded by great people both at work and at home. I just needed to remind myself that.

My sympathy goes to the families of the Chinese tourists that were held hostage by that demented cop yesterday at the Quirino Grandstand. I apologize as all I can do was sigh.

It’s official. I love the massage chair. I could sit on it the whole day.

Our office recently transferred to a new location and we are loving it there. What I like about the place is its new hotel-ish ambiance and of course, the massage chair in our pantry. For the 3 days that we were at the new office, I’ve used it like 10 times already. Haha. I’m planning on using it every day as I sense that it will get broken sometime soon. I need to get the most out of it before it does.

Something big is going to happen tomorrow. I can’t wait. I’m going to sleep early tonight for tomorrow will be a very long day. And no, this is not about Starcraft.

My brother bought himself a Sony Ericsson Aspen phone the other day. He is an SE fanboy so I guess he just bought it because of its brand and not because of its features. I finally got to have a look at it today. To be honest, I didn’t like it. Windows 6 is getting really old. They should have released it with a Windows Mobile 7 OS, an Android, or a Froyo – if they already have ones for QWERTY phones. Anyway, I’m still happy with my good old reliable Nokia E63. It does get boring as time goes by but as long as I can send SMS easily, I'm okay with it.

The power of Google Analytics is unbelievable. Did you know I can tell who’s been viewing my blog by using this tool? Yes this is possible. It just boils down to how good you use it and to how well you know your visitors.

The trap I’ve set has caught something. Hmm… Very interesting.

I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy of Starcraft 2. I checked the digital download version and I found out that it costs more if you’re going to buy it here in the Philippines than in Singapore. It is priced at around 109SGD here but if you are going to buy it overseas, it will only cost you 95SGD – or so I’ve been told. I think I’ll just go for the retail version. Once I get a hold of an activation key, I’d probably won’t have the patience to wait for the download to finish.
