Uruguay vs Ghana Street Celebration

After a very unforgettable win of Uruguay against Ghana, Uruguay has won it's first match to stay in the world cup semis. So what better way to celebrate than to shout it out in the streets! 

A lot of dancing and celebrating! It was really a pretty awesome experience to jump and sing out loud even though I don't understand what I was singing. :))

Uruguay vs Corea del Sur Street Celebration

After smashing South Korea, Uruguay was able to enter the World Cup semi-finals leading to a country wide celebration, starting in the streets of Montevideo.

It has been several world cups since Uruguay has entered the semi finals so that made it more enjoyable for the Uruguayans.

Being the only Asian walking along the street parade, I was always asked if I was Korean and telling them 'no' was not enough for them to take a group picture with me. I feel like a celebrity until of course I see a facebook picture of me and a group of people with a caption of "Mejor suerte la próxima vez, coreano dude asiático".

you intelligent virus you!

I was just uploading some photos over the internetz when all of a sudden, a former office-mate of mine, who I don't usually chat with, buzzed me over YM. 

After a few seconds, I realized that this was a cleverly created (in other words, malicious) script that would send a reply whenever you replied back. I really find it ingenious! Kudos to the creator! 

As for you my friend.... stop doing porn!!!

Ciao Argentina! Hola Uruguay!

Embajada de Filipinas en Buenos Aires

Good thing I thought I would need an NBI clearance to go to Uruguay or else I would have missed going to the Philippine embassy in Buenos Aires. 

The Filipinos I've meet in the embassy were very nice and hospitable and wouldn't have expected anything less! :)
