16 random things about JPM's founder

1. He's a huge fan of rice. Everytime we visit a fast food chain, he never failed to order one or two or three extra cups of rice. He even ate 8 cups of rice in Mang Inasal (Well, it's unlimited rice!) when we challenged him!

2. He had a skeleton-like feature when I was a toddler. He was really underweight. Pero ngayon, He's not. hehe.

3. Adrenaline Rush. During the onslaught of Typhoon Frank last June 21, 2008, he managed to lift their 29-inch television and refrigerator up to our second floor alone! That's the power of the adrenals! However, when it was time to bring it back, he had four persons to help him assist in transferring it back.

4. Permission Neglected. With the reason that his teacher wouldn’t permit him to go out their classroom, he was embarrassed after urinating in his seat way back when he was in kindergarten in a catholic school.

5. Treasures treasured. He had a wide collection of IDs in camps, conferences, contests and organizations. These are all displayed in his room.

6. Chem this be love... With the difficulty in memorizing atomic numbers and elements, he has a giant periodic table of elements beside his computer table.

7. Laban! A big fan of Noynoy Aquino, a senator and a presidentiable for May 10, 2010 elections.

8. He is a catechist. When he was 12 years old, JP used to tell younger kids about the word of God. Until now, he serves as member of the Santa Monica Lectors and Commentators Guild.

9. Victory at hand. Currently, modesty aside, winning the 2008 Most Outstanding Secondary School Student of Iloilo and Outstanding Student of the Philippines are his greatest achievements in life.

10. Numerophobic. He admits he's not really that good in remembering names and dates but his long term memory is good in remembering conversations with other people which turn out to be significant when he have to solve personal cases. Now everyone knows, he's a detective. haha

12. RevUP! JP started to drive a car when he entered the second week of his sophomore college life. Yes, he knows how to drive a car way back when he was 15, but his mother wouldn't permit him to do so because he doesn't have a driver's license.

13. Online addict. He can't live without the internet connection. Surfing the World Wide Web (WWW) is his favorite hobby since.

14. Promise! I used to promise my mom and dad to take them to United States across the globe and build a house for them. But now he preferred to stay here in the Philippines and be of service to his fellow Filipinos.

15. Politiko-aspirant. He aspires to run for a local seat (municipal councilor). But that would be unsure until he files his Certificate of Candidacy. 

16.  I love the blogosphere! Another thing that he can’t live without is his blog to which he treats it as my best friend. An online and a virtual one.
