Recently I discovered three stuff that eventually become my favorite.

The first one is the Starbucks Espresso Brownie. It costs five times than the usual air-filled Lemon Square brownie. Pero sulit! I have to nibble the brownie little by little for prolonged satisfaction. It replaced my cravings for the almost the same priced Red Ribbon chocolate mousse. I pair Starbucks Espresso Brownie with any frappucino in the coffee house.

I have only a short list of senatoriables who have my vote. I’m pretty confident that they will win on the upcoming May elections. But I am frightened on the possibility that Philippines would be really on troubled of the other winners. This will happen if the voters (1) will not vote, especially the youth (2) will sell their vote (3) will vote irrationally.

This May 14 will be my second instance to exercise my right to elect a public servant, a figure far from a traditional politician. But this novice voter is not unsighted on the truth on how most Pinoy vote. I’ve been a constant watcher of televised quick counts and had kept eye until the results were finalized. And my observation… there’s a quite certainty on how to win in a Philippine senatorial race that could and would erase any intelligent vote.

I used to not give a damn thing with SEO before. But now I realize, after visitor logs analysis, that Yahoo! Searchers outnumber my invited guests. Then with that, there’s a need for me to optimize my website for search engine to make way for a better traffic and larger audience.

I read several SEO and traffic-attraction tips and will be observed in the next release of j o n a s . p h this April. Publicity campaign though will still be present so expect shameless plugs again.

I received my ITE refund four days earlier. It is indeed short. And what’s more frustrating is that what I expect will never come. Since TSG is now not covered by the Philippine law stating companies should not withhold tax of thirteenth month bonus pay less than 30 percent, 15% of that amount goes back to the company straight from the employees bank account. Black Saturday indeed.

Sino Ano ‘tong naka unang tingin,
Anghel Pera bang magliligtas makakaltas sa ‘kin
Mga mata’y kanyang biglang nagulat sa pag at nagdadalamhati

Hinahanap sa kung saan
Pakpak Refund na hindi mahagilap
Ninanais ko lang naman na maging ganap complete lahat

Kailangan lang pagbigyan
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE

Mag Naghahanap, ka pa ba wala pa
Ng ibang taga-lupa Ang refund, ‘tagal po ba
Aking tinig ay iyong dinggin

Kailangan lang pagbigyan
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE
Kailangan lang pagbigyan
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE

Mauubos Nauudlot din ang luha pag kuha
Natutuyo ‘coz na magic at nawawala
Nag Maglalaho rin pala

Kailangan lang pagbigyan
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE
Kailangan lang pagbigyan
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE

Kulang lang sa…
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE,
Kulang lang sa…
Kulang lang sa pansin ITE

ITE has been once an agenda during Reklamo TeG coffee talks at Starbucks.
