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! :)

Basilica de Lujan

Leaving for Montevideo in a few weeks, I had to explore somewhere outside of the Buenos Aires Capital! Good thing my friend Ricardo is willing to be my tour guide for the day so onward to the neo-gothic Basilica de Lujan! \:D/
