Ever since I got a postpaid plan, courtesy of Globe SM Naga branch, and availed myself of its unlimited mobile surfing for P999/mo and unlimited Globe & TM text and call for P599/mo (and in the process got myself a new Galaxy Samsung Mini absolutely free!)…
…I have been making unlimited calls to my staff, my family, my friends and practically anyone who has a Globe/TM number.
The thing is, I can’t really distinguish which numbers are not on the Globe/TM network. Good thing, I found this handy. It’s great for tracking which people I’m calling I get additional charges for.
How to determine if Smart, Globe or Sun number
I hope you found this post helpful!

So, this is just my way of saying why I did not make it to B-Side last night – I was busy making websites. The sites are up but they are all in beta. What’s important is they are up. I stayed up all night last night, had a few hours of sleep this morning, have not had my morning coffee, had not showered, had not eaten, but well… at least I can now say I’m (almost) done. And I am proud of what I have done too, with my limited time and knowledge and design skills. *stucks tongue out at ya*
You may now follow Wharf Galley on Twitter for updates on performances and other events.
You may also email the admin (which is just actually me, at least for now) any concerns, suggestions, inquiries at info@wharfgalleyrockcafe.com
I had initially considered making a separate YouTube account for Wharf but since I already made a dedicated video page, I will keep uploading videos of performances on my own account at angkuletdotcom.

in Friends and their Interests, Technology Tags: Tough Brat Bags
I have always been a fan of messenger bags. I live and breathe messenger bags. These days though, my messenger bags are either too small or too soft to carry the one thing I almost never go around without – my laptop. I’ve always been a fan of huge bags – one that can carry the myriad of little things that I tend to carry around with me. The more pockets, the better. More pockets mean more organization. I like to keep organization even in the middle of the chaos that only a take-everything-with-me-wherever-I-go attitude can lead to. If the bag is waterproof or even semi-waterproof all the better!
I have been looking for a laptop bag at Multiply online stores. I do have a Crumpler laptop bag now that my friend gave me as a birthday present but with its traveler beach-bum look, sometimes it just doesn’t go along with my mood or my look for the day. I have been looking for a more formal laptop bag. That is how I found myself doing a search on Multiply, and stumbling upon Tough Brat bags – and instantly falling in love. I wanted to get one of each style, to go along with each probable mood I will find myself in.
