budgetgeek Macau is a generally peaceful enclave. I especially like visiting and hanging around Taipa where you could even wander aimlessly around without the fear of getting mugged and bugged. Largo de Senado is a must-see spot, along with of course, The Venetian....

budgetgeek It's okay to name someone "Facebook". If you learn and discern virtually every name in the planet, you might find some names funny but on the flip side it may mean much to the parents. In a literal sense, if you use the name "God-like", instead of "Michael" or...

With the announcement of early registrtation for public school opening for Kindergarden, it seems that the K-12 plan which gives additional year for public school students is pushing through. What's in your mind regarding this...

budgetgeek Quite frankly, this proposition will be a huge failure especially given the economic hardships of most Filipinos. Adding a year will not solve the problem. Respecting teachers and increasing their salaries will be a better option.

budgetgeek I'm a member of LUUUX as well, though I'm not sure if they ship to my location. It'll be cool to land a few Apple stuff from that site, but I'd rather spend my time making dimes that I know will accumulate and I can cash it out in the near future. :)

budgetgeek We have a dog named Diego. He's of the Shih Tzu breed. He's small and adorable, also a very smart pooch. He will jump and go around me whenever I arrive from work. He also knows some simple addition like 1+1 = 2 (of course, in bark mode :) )

budgetgeek People should see the computer merely as a tool and not the "end-all-be-all" type of thing. Saying that people is already "worshipping" the computer is like people should have "worshipped" the wheel eons ago. Each is revolutionary in its own right, but still...
