My Top 5 Favorite Bloggers 2008

Dictionary.com defines “blogger” as a person who keeps a web log (blog) or publishes an online diary. In my case, I define a blogger who articulates his thoughts without any premise or rule. I mean, anyone who has a social networking account can be a blogger no matter what kind of person he is.

After four months of being a “multiplier,” I tried blogging and I had the chance to read other people’s blogs and eventually became their contact. From December 31, 2006, here are the top 5 people whose blog entries are really catchy for me.

A Simple Sem-Starter

I have new plans for this second semester. These include ways to make my academic and social life better (should I say even better).

I just want to share these with you.

What I like about this is that it serves as your project draft/scratch/outline/plan. Moreover, even if not in the same place, you and your group mates can work in one notebook that is synchronized over the internet. That just means OneNote is very useful in brainstorming.

Use it! Be organized!

Ateneo Leads UP

Three days ago, Denver buzzed me and asked what were the reactions of UP students to the new university rankings based on QS World University Rankings 2008.

At first, I didn’t believe what he said. I even asked him a proof.

Ateneo de Manila University – 254
University of the Philippines – 276

Honestly, I wasn’t shocked by the rankings. Maybe I knew that something was wrong — something connected to UP.

Mandy Moore’s Getting Fat

A moment ago, I watched Mandy Moore’s Umbrella cover. I quickly noticed how stout she looked. At first, I thought the video screen was just compressed vertically, but when I saw Rihanna’s body in the background, I concluded that Mandy is not the “slim” Mandy anymore.

A 2007 article from Cinemablend.com said that she was to star in a new movie with Robin Williams. However, the bosses said that she had to slim down first.
