The Worst Kind of Facebook Tag Spam
EDIT: They removed my name. Such an odd campaign! Who cares about my opinion on shoes? Di naman ako fashionista (Magaling lang magdala – LOL!). Spamming Facebook walls is one thing.

As a Class-A geek, I was impressed with two things in particular: they had the never before launched HTC Evo 3D smartphone and an upgraded…

This Week is Shark Week. Here are photos I took diving with sharks.
This week is SHARK WEEK. We commemorate one whole week to the shepherds of the ocean. They keep the population of other fish in check, affect movement patterns of other fish and ensure that the groupers and other big reef fish do not explode in population and kill off reef life. Our lives are tied…
