Steve Jobs 1955-2011

“Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask a creative person how they did something, they may feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after awhile. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or have thought more about their experiences than other people have.” - Steve Jobs

Hooked!


Have you guys played the card game Monopoly Deal? 


It's a modernized and much faster adaptation of the classic Monopoly board game (which can go on for ages). 


My brother received a pack from my Aunt as a late birthday present. I learned to play earlier this week and am hooked. My younger brothers say its all the rage in both university and high school. People skip lunch playing it during breaks between classes.

Manila








I heard this song today and the 2nd and 3rd verses describe how I feel about my city. 

 This city is my city
And I love it, yeah I love it
I was born and raised here
I got it made here
And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay


From every corner
To every block yeah
And whether it's warm or storming or downright stupid hot, hot
From the problems all the way to the solutions yeah
Forget all the drugs and gangs, corruption and pollution no


Cause this city is my city
And I love it, yeah I love it
I was born and raised here
I got it made here
And if I have my way, I'm gonna stay here
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
For life, uh huh
