Look who made it to the NYTimes...

Read here...

Here's one exciting game to watch. The LaSalle dude who made the last shot looked so smug and confident. I wish I was the one who told him his shot didn't make it. Haha.

Pastry Bin

I was surprised to see our wedding cake posted in Blissful Wedding's blog entry for Pastry Bin. We highly recommend them! Here's more about Pastry Bin from our wedding website:

"What more can I say about the cake maker for the stars? This lady (PenkChing) does not need any introduction. Her cakes are works of art! And as what my coordinator also said, her cake would definitely be the second most photographed aspect of the wedding (next to the couple ofcourse). Despite being the leader in her field, she remains super down to earth. That I think is one of the main reasons why she is so successful."

My Mamy's Clothing Line

Just sharing a post from my sister's multipy. All the clothes that my sister is wearing were made by my mom! She's super talented talaga! She just took a 3 month dress making course and she was able to make these hip and professional-looking clothes. I'm rushing to send my measurements so she can make some pieces for me too =).

Here's a sample. Nakiki-extra lang yung brother ko sa pictorial. Hehe.

La Salle Spelling!

With all the hoopla surrounding this season's UAAP, a little bit of humor is in order...


Go Ateneo! Hehe.

Hell Explained by a Chemistry Student

Just thought I'd share... =)

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry midterm.

The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well :

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat) ?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today.

Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.

Starstruck

Kakainis!!! Why does Lex have to be the only one to see her?!?

Coming out of the elevator, Lex's jaw dropped when he came face to face with the beauteous and leggy Cameron Diaz! She was filming at the lobby of our apartment building for the movie What Happens in Vegas. Wouldn't you be star struck as well?? Ibang level na 'to! Ako nga e na star struck nung na-meet ko si Jolina and Marvin when they were filming last year for the teleserye I Luv NY. Kay Cameron pa? Baka himatayin ata ako. Hehe.

Here are Lex's paparazzi shots. Where was his SLR when he needed it?!? Photos were taken using his phone's camera.

"What Happens in Vegas" director chairs in our mailroom


Cameron Diaz with an unidentified male.

I hope they won't edit out the scenes they took on our building. It would be fun seeing a place so familiar in the big screen.

Post ko na rin ito para fun =).

New Toy!

I bought myself one of these...



The new iPod Nano! It was time to retire my ancient and bulky mini. I got the red one ofcourse. It's so small, thin and very cool looking.

What's great about this is that it can now play videos. Now I can watch our Onsite (and show the vid to anyone willing to watch, hehe) anytime and anywhere I want.

Shoot 'Em Up!

This movie was the first time we watched something that we don't have a clue what it is about. I don't even know who's starring. We just had dinner at The Sea Grill with our friends Lanie and Rommel and we all decided to catch a movie in Time Square. Shoot 'Em Up sounds intriguing and Lanie said she heard someone say it was good. So we went ahead, not expecting too much.



The short 87 min. film was shallow, cartoony (think Bugs Bunny), unrealistic, unoriginal (John Woo and Quentin Tarantino like), corny even... but I LOVE IT!!!! All of us had the best time watching. To be honest, I think that was the only movie that I can seriously say that I have laughed and shouted out loud. And I wasn't the only one doing so. The film is starring Clive Owen (Sin City, The Inside Man), Monica Belluci (Matrix, Passion of Christ) and Paul Giamatti (Lady in the Water, Sideways). Clive Owen is perfect as the enigmatic Mr. Smith. I won't be devulging too much of the plot here as there really isn't any plot to devulge. Just go and watch the movie, don't expect too much, and you'll be taken for a ride.
