Pictures from Kobe Supernatural Asian Tour...
This is the moment... Went to work (yeah rayt...sell..sell..sell!!!) But after 9 hours of agony. At last I'm on my way to the Philsports Arena (formerly ULTRA) to see Kobe. Parking was really a hassle. Kobe Fanatics are everywhere wearing their Kobe Jersey! Fans came from everywhere. It was a star studded event since famous celebrities like FrancisM, James Yap, Alvin Patrimonio, and other Nike Endorser. Good thing I got free tickets courtesy of Nike (hehehe!) As soon as KOBE was introduced, everyone was chantings KOBE's name.
Kobe shared his training regimen with young Pinoy Ballers. Kobe thought one of his training drills called "BLACKOUT". After that, Kobe made some fancy dunks to give more entertainment to the crowd. Too bad I wasn't able to catch Nike Balls with Kobe's sign on it...not a good
catcher (huhuhuhu...). Anyway overall experience was superb. Watching Kobe live is one hell of an experiece.
Some pics of the event. (courtesy of my old school Sony K750i)
x's - Kobe’s Manila visit is part of his Supernatural Asia Tour 2007. His next stops include Taipei, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing.

are shoes ageless?
uhh probably not, shoes are a stage of life you know what i mean? hehehe...like action figures, school, game consoles (family computer), or even the bubble gums that we use to chew when we were young.. hehehe
i mean, if you got some cash lying around when you get older.you can buy some shoes. but i bet 90% of y'all (ya heard!?!?) will be strivin just for rent when off to college, family matters, or anything...so hell yeah!!! i'm still young and i will still go for collecting the shoes that i want...hehehe...
an example of shoe that im dying to have is...(drum rolls please!!!). its the air jordan defining moment package, guess what is the initial bid at ebay.ph... a whopping P31,000 (dream ko lang 2 bee..can't afford e.) if i can have these pair...damn...my collection would be complete... so check this out...hehehe..

Transformer to Nike...
"We live among its people now, hiding in plain sight, but watching over them is secret. Waiting. Protecting. I have been witness to their capacity for courage and sacrifice. Though internally and in many other ways we are literally worlds apart, as with us there is more to them then meets the eye." - Optimus Prime

we need money!!! $$$
People really do need money... I need money, you need money, everybody needs money! Money makes the world go round as per R.Kelly's lyrics (the hell!?!?!).Wiki defines money as:
"Money is any good or token that functions as a medium of exchange that is socially and legally accepted in payment for goods and services and in settlement of debts. Money also serves as a standard of value for measuring the relative worth of different goods and services and as a store of value."

"Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game. " - Donald Trump
For me its all about the Ninoys!!! hahahaha!!!

Say no to FAKES!!!
Here in Manila there are a lot of fake Air Jordan sneakers. Everywhere you go, you can see Pinoys cop for fakes Jordans. You can get them at Greenhills, Tutuban Mall, and Cartimar. Prices ranges from P1,000 to P2,000 ($20 to $40) I'm not saying you to buy the fake Air Jordan or the imitations. Most of the Pinoy here in Pilipinas loves imitations, but not me. I' am against people who buy fake shoes (just fake Jordan shoes folks...I don't care if you buy a fake Gucci or Louis Vuitton, pirated DVD... I support pirated DVD's. I found a blog from one of my favorite sites (sneakerfiles.com) what they did was they burn a fake Jordan XI. hehehehe!!! so keep those fake Jordan on FIRE!!! hahaha...
I HATE FAKES LET THEM BITCHES BURN YA!!! DIG!!! SAY NO TO FAKES!!!

Philippines...2nd world country?!?!?! (whatever that means.)
I remembered last year when Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo declared that we are not on a 3rd party country anymore , but we are moving to 2nd world country. The hell!?! What is the difference between 3rd world and 2nd world... I don't know, well I have to use wiki for this... hehehehe...
According to Wiki:
The term "Second World" is a phrase that was used to describe the Communist states within the Soviet Union's sphere of influence. Along with "First World" and "Third World", the term has been used to divide the nations of Earth into three broad categories. The term has largely fallen out of use since the end of the Cold War. The other two 'worlds' are still widely talked about, although "First World" is now deprecated for the more politically correct "developed country" and "Third World" has been replaced with "developing country".
from Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_world_country)
I am really confused about this 2nd world / 3rd world thing. All I can think of is that Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is telling us people that we are almost there (almost there to be considered as a 1st world country) what a crap...hehehehe. All I know is that there are 2 types of people in the Philippines, RICH and POOR! so I don't give a damn with the 3rd world 2nd world thing...gulo no...hahaha. "Get RICH or Die Tryin'" - 50 Cent
This is what RICH people do here in the Philippines.

(Ferrari F430 burned in South-Luzon Expressway. Here in the Philippines we burn Ferrari...hehehe...tnx to pinoyexchange)
and another one for ya'll!!!
(A 550 Maranello Ferrari just got Wreked in Skyway! tnx to pinoypsp)
Philippine Government hates luxury cars... so they end like this...
(A Lincoln Navigator, three BMW X5s, a Chevrolet Camper and a Mitsubishi GTO sports car were among the vehicles worth a total of P30 million pesos ($625,000) destroyed.)
Maybe sometime... Philippines will be the Asia's Tiger of Economy...maybe...dream on Carlo...
When we wake up in the morning, we have two simple choices. Go back to sleep and dream, or wake up and chase those dreams.
Choice is yours...

First Timer...
This is the first time I’m going to create my own blog... at last (hooray!!!). Since I was transferred from a different account. I had lot of free time in other words "petiks"... browse..browse.. browse... (kaya tuloy bagsak nanaman call logging ko.. hehehe).. By the way if you are thinking what my work is??!? I am working on a call center, frustrated tech for American customers. What I do is I sell my service... I know what you're thinking...it’s not it. I sell my technical skills to fix the customer's issues. From spyware to wireless... any software related issue. All I do is sell..sell..sell..sell "Ask for the BUSINESS!” hehehe..As soon as I make a sell, do the remote thing.. fix.. fix.. fix. hehehe.. 5 days a week of software troubleshooting is not an easy job. That is ok with me, since for me call center is the job for easy ninoys (Benjamin’s kuno)..hehehe.. Anyway I’m still planning to look for a job that would allow me to work 8am to 5pm (whoa...more quality to with my wife.) but for now I have to stick with my beloved job. POOR Carlo!!! As long as my company is paying me the right amount for my daily expenses.. Let’s get it on...
This blog site of mine is dedicated to my lovingly wife (this one is for you bee...nyahahaha!!!) carlomarco.blogspot is now officially online <08-22-2007>.
