Episode 57: Thank You, November! (My Very Late Birthday Vlog)

Dec 05

This is How I Thank Everyone in 30 Seconds.

My recent birthdaymonth has got to be the busiest and most hectic celebration I’ve had ever. I was always used to big house parties where I get to invite all my friends from different circles but I realized that it’s just too costly (since I’ll be the one spending this time) and not really as fun as small, intimate get-togethers. This video basically thanks the people who were there to celebrate the awesome month of November with me. I love you, gaiz!

“Drunk” at Elation Launch Party

“Drunk” at Elation Launch Party

Dec 04

It’s prom night all over again!

That was the general reaction when my friends and I entered The Grand Terrace at Quezon City for the Elation: Chocolate and Shooters Buffet Grand Launch last November 14.

The party looked awesome. The ambiance was teen prom-ish but still engaging. The shooters and chocolates? Okay naman. The ingredients for a smashing event was there. Though there was an obvious generation gap between some of us and most of the attendees, it’s nothing people young at heart could not handle. :P

One of the most entertaining highlights of the night was seeing some teenagers get really, really drunk – like I-can’t-stand-up-please-escort-me-to-the-restroom drunk. Moments we couldn’t help but capture on video:

Oh yuh. This is just a reenaction. :P

Last Minute Mensa Exam Tips

Last Minute Mensa Exam Tips

Nov 30

It is now examination day for those people who dared to take the challenge – the Mensa IQ testing marathon at the Bonifacio High Street later from 11 AM to 5 PM. Now let me just share the tips given to us by Chris Tan – Mensa Philippines President and by other bloggers who took the exam:

1. Breeze through the first 10-20 items of the exam. This will be the easiest part of the test. Once you get into the rhythm, it should be easy figuring out the patterns from one item to the next. The last part will “rape” your mind (lolz). Be sure to focus more on items 30 and up.

2. Sometimes, it is simpler than you would expect. During the exam, you might feel a bit doubtful of your answers because it is just too easy. Guys. This is an IQ exam. Not College Physics or Calculus. If the answer makes the most sense to you, then you’re probably right. :P

3. If an item drives you crazy, LEAVE IT. Then go back if you still have time. Guess the answer if you don’t. :D

4. Be aware of the 30-minute time limit but don’t be too anxious of it. Looking at your watch every 30 seconds will only distract you from your train of thought.

5.  It’s the last 30 seconds and you still have a couple of numbers unanswered? Don’t panic. Breathe in. Breathe out.

Remember that these tips won’t assure a passing grade – but these might help you get a more accurate picture of your IQ. Good luck and have fun later!
