Friday, December 28, 2007 Christmas is the most celebrated holiday around the world. When I was young, the start of December means the start of the month long celebration of Christmas. But as I grew older, the holiday spirit faded along with my childhood.This Christmas, I didn't attended the nine mornings mass (simbang gabi) which I usually complete every year. I didn't put a Christmas countdown on my website like any other year. Heck I didn't posted on Christmas Day. I dunno, maybe the fun of Christmas for me faded away and as I grow old, Christmas is just another ordinary holiday. Labels: emo Read Full Entry
Posted by Siopao Master @ 1:26 PM Monday, December 17, 2007 I am now a proud owner of a Neo laptop Wishes do come true this ChristmasMom gave a surprise today, I accompanied her at SM to buy some stuff and I was wondering what were we doing at SM Cyberzone. She asked me "San ba yung gusto mong laptop?" First I thought she just wanted to see it, but she told me "Sige kuha ka na". I was shocked really until now. I've been dreaming of having a laptop since ages ago (see my previous pics)., We had a P5,000 discount from the P40,999 original price, we also had a laptop bag and a free gift from Neo. I will never forget this day! Tech spec of Neo Empriva 572SVBx Photo gallery Read Full Entry
Posted by Siopao Master @ 11:47 PM Saturday, December 08, 2007 Robert Hawkins, a 19-year-old boy who on December 5, 2007 killed 8 people on an Omaha Nebraska mall and committed suicide.According to AP,Robert Hawkins entered a mall, an AK47 in hand, killed 8 people and shot himself afterwards after spending four years in a series of treatment centers, group homes and foster care after threatening to kill his stepmother in 2002. He had recently broken up with a girlfriend and lost his job at a McDonald's. He left a suicide note at his suburban house with the following message:
Surveillance video and still images of the attack show Hawkins initially walking into the mall unarmed, wearing glasses, a black zippered sweat shirt over a black T-shirt with a white logo. He returned to the store six minutes later, according to timestamps on the footage. Video of the department store's south entrance shows Hawkins entering the festooned store and immediately walking to the elevator to his right. His right hand was tight against his midsection to hide what police said was an AK-47 assault rifle. Meanwhile, funerals for some of Hawkins' victims were announced. A wake for John McDonald, of Council Bluffs, Iowa, was scheduled for Sunday, with a funeral the following day in his hometown. A vigil for Janet Jorgensen, a 14-year Von Maur employee, was scheduled for Sunday evening in Omaha, with a funeral Mass on Monday. Jorgensen's family members gathered to pray for the victims and their families — including Hawkins' family. "They're not vindictive people," family friend Paul Huntimer said Friday to a gathering of reporters at the Jorgensens' Omaha home. "It was important to Ron that prayers go out to the suspect's family." The mall was scheduled to reopen on Saturday. Source: AP Labels: news Read Full Entry
