I like to read, listen to music and surf the net. I love museums and art stuff. I also like to play video games on my computer and ps2. I’m kinda into electronic gadgets and high-tech stuff but nothing really beats reading a good book.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE japan and japanese culture especially Anime and Manga. I love to work out and take pictures with my digital camera.
I also like to cook. So far I have cooked chicken chow mein, Fried chicken, bacon, pancakes, Pasta, baked potatoes..and I just recently made hamburgers and a killer ham sandwich but my specialty would have to be my Korean Chicken Bokumbap.
I hope you guys like my blog and that you enjoy reading what I posted. Thank you very much for dropping by!

Angie
Hey Martin! Stumbled upon your blog. Lots of really neat stuff here… Nice to bump into a fellow pinoy who enjoys common interests as I do… comics, reading, video games, food, working out…
Will drop by again soon… Lotsa luck on your site!
-Chuck

You are Japanese or you just love Japanese? So why the foods your cook are not Japanese?!
Nope, I am not Japanese! I love Japanese food though.

Hi Martin. What’s shakin?

hi martin! I’m an english teacher from indonesia. U like japanese food? maybe u don’t believe it, I never taste japanese food. It’s so expensive in my country. why u don.t try to cook it and give me some?
nice blog bro.. nakita ko lng 2 sa isang lyrics site, andaming foreigners n nashock kasi nakalink sya s “harry potter fan kills herself” news mo.. kaya ayun, dko maamin na pilipino ako. hay obsession! kaya di umaasenso ang pinoy, ang kabataan, npapabayaan..
Your blog is interesting as hell. Keep it rocking…
Hey there! I loved the information on the R4, so much so that I went off and ordered one that my lovely wife is going to pick up this afternoon. Great work putting all that info up about it, I couldn’t find much else on the web about it… maybe I didn’t look hard enough.
The one thing I guess I would like to know is where can I get roms for the DS R4. I’m in Australia and am not sure if the roms from other countries will work on my DS. I’m all new to this.
Anyway thanks for the cool information. If you have any more please let me know, maybe an email if your not to busy.
Jimmy!
roms for the r4? try frozen-roms.net
Ah… Ilonggo. La Sallian. Engineer ka man? Just dropping by. Like your blogs. I’ll be coming back.
This is really cool, keep it up on the web!!

hi martin. i’m a filipino living in the u.s. i found your blog while looking up r4 DS information. anyways, i will probably never visit the islands again so i’m glad i can see what life is like in the Philippines through your blog.
Hey stumbled upon your blog and thought I’d say hi. I’m into the same stuff as you so i’ll probably be checking this out every now and then.
I found your blog by mistake, and I’ll add it to my RSS reader. The fairy in the top surely had an effect on me.
And the all the food posts make me hungry.

Hey bro. You have a nice blog, very informative. I just wanna ask some help.. kasi I’m planning to visit Bacolod next month, pero I have no idea saan ako magstay and what places I can visit. I am traveler with tight budget kasi from davao – cebu – bacolod back to manila ang trip ko. I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance!
@mike.. there’s some motels with 150 pesos per night… try bacolod pension house… Er.. I’m not really a tourist so I think looking bacolod tourism up on google might help
Hi Martin.. are you a Gallaga? you look like you’re one of Peque Gallaga’s sons, haha. anyways, my question, would you know who makes the best lechon in bacolod? i tried lechon here in manila once which was ordered by a friend of mine from bacolod, he said it came from EMMA ROA? do you know this person? would you have a number for her?
but let me know please if you have other sources for bacolod lechon. and if you can tell me how lechon in bacolod is made differently from lechon in cebu or manila or in other places, i would really appreciate that. how to lechoneros in bacolod/negros occidental kaya make their lechon? what distinct ingredient or manner of cooking do they use in making lechon, which makes it different from lechons made in other places?
let me know if you know, martin… thanks a lot!/negrosdude
i dont have her number, i dont know her.
anyway according to the book food tour by claude tayag: page 94. from national bookstore
the best place for lechon would be enting’s lechonan :
located at 17th street near Lacson
