Iris Random Book Tag
I’ve been wrinkling my nose and scratching my head over what I got from Doc Claire’s book tag. I did all of these:
1. Pick up the nearest book of at least 123 pages.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences. 5. Tag five people.
and got this from Og Mandino’s The Twelfth Angel (which isn’t even mine, but being a book magnet I had one in my office cube):
“Everyone was rooting for the little guy to get his first hit. He tried. Oh, how he tried!”
Maybe the fact that the book isn’t mine (it was left by a friend) would explain why it didn’t give me anything definite about my current status in life.
Or maybe it does, I just haven’t realized it yet. My first 2 attempts to answer this tag had stubborn love and murderous intent written all over them. It was pretty interesting.
Now, snag the tag those who want to!
New Photography Affiliations
I am discovering that I blog better when I take photos to go with my post. So now to force me to come up with really good ones, I joined Litratong Pinoy and Weekend Snapshots 
LP is for Filipinos (whether you’re half- or full blooded) and non-Pinoys but you can speak or udnerstand Filipino who take photos professionally or not, and who would like to share their works and meet others of the same interest. The group posts photos every Thursday and displays their links to their photos in the site. Join na!
On the other hand, Weekend Snapshot is a group of photo enthusiasts all over the world that basically posts pictures of their weekend activities. Green Dip was my first entry to WS.

hehehe… perhaps that was the problem.
or maybe you’re right and there’s a message in there somewhere.
by the way, i am mulling over getting an slr on a budget… do you have suggestions? there are lots of things i need to get in the near future, but once i know i’m really leaving, i just might get that camera…
also… should i get an slr or a waterproof point-and-shoot?

dSLR on a budget.. the only thing that comes into mind is Hidalgo St. in Quiapo
im not sure if they have dSLRs there though. alam ko lang they’re loaded with all the photography equipments. sa tingin ko Canon and Nikon or Minolta are the best talaga. very durable pa.
as for the waterproof cam, if you want a good P-and-S, Pentax has a nice waterproof cam. my cousin has one and it hasn’t failed. i’ll ask where she bought it
pero if you ask me, i’ll get the dSLR first, then the waterproof cam, if you do plan to go on water trips.
i like that book. you try and you try but in the end, you still die. kidding! no, i like kasi tlga that mantra (everyday, in every way, better, better, and better) even before reading that book.
anyway, tagged you:

thea’s last blog post..high school life
guess what thea, i haven’t read the book! hehe. never had the time, and besides im not much of a reader of inspirational books (yeah, not even tuesdays with morrie, but i did read that one and i didn’t really like it that much).
so that’s what it’s about? anyway sure i’ll do your tag.
so we’ll see each other sa LP on thursday ha? its a date
yupyup! im excited actually. hehe.
