&lt;p&gt;Imagine what cities would look like without any traffic. Take a look at &lt;a href="http://tombakerphotography.wordpress.com/2009/04/15/52/" target="_blank"&gt;these&lt;/a&gt; photos by Tom Baker. If this actually happened to L.A. freeways, my life would be so complete!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Check out this music video my buddy, &lt;a href="http://mageeclegg.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Magee&lt;/a&gt;, put together using footage he filmed during Typhoon Ondoy relief efforts. The song, &lt;i&gt;Alive,&lt;/i&gt; is from a new band called Bottleneck, who wanted to dedicate their video to the victims of the calamity.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/233746330</link><guid>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/233746330</guid><pubDate>Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:59:38 +0800</pubDate></item><item><title>Bro, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko (Brother, You Are the Star of...</title><description>&lt;object width="400" height="336"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/T1nNUOMS14g&amp;rel=0&amp;egm=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/T1nNUOMS14g&amp;rel=0&amp;egm=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="336" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Bro, Ikaw ang Star ng Pasko&lt;/i&gt; (Brother, You Are the Star of Christmas)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Christmas is almost heeeere - the parols are up and lit, the red Starbucks cups are tempting me, and it’s getting really, &lt;i&gt;really &lt;/i&gt;cold (at least inside the office). Speaking of Starbucks, don’t have the Dark Cherry Mocha. It tastes like fish.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway, here’s the new ABS-CBN station ID for the Christmas season. A little cheesy perhaps, but it did warm my black heart a bit.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/233426277</link><guid>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/233426277</guid><pubDate>Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:53:12 +0800</pubDate></item><item><title>‘Sesame Street’s’ been swept, but the magic of...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://1.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ksm2x9Rrv81qz8i5jo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/11/04/sesame.street.anniversary/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;‘Sesame Street’s’ been swept, but the magic of show remains - CNN.com&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Even further back: end of freshman year of college, June 2004. I can still hear the jackhammers pounding at the lobby of Sproul Hall, waking me up just in time for my 8am Econ 1 class. Nostalgia abounds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Notice how clean our floor was. That’s because no shoes were allowed past the door.

&lt;p&gt;Let’s go even further back down memory lane: Philippine Studies Program 2006. Letting 25 Fil-Ams loose in Manila — perhaps not the brightest idea, U.P.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I kid. (But really, watch out for those Fil-Ams. They’re ridiculous.)&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/230979919</link><guid>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/230979919</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Nov 2009 02:28:00 +0800</pubDate></item><item><title>Departures | LAX

&lt;p&gt;I’ve been thinking about the US a lot lately. No reason, really. Just reminiscing. And even though words can’t describe how much I miss my family and friends, I really can’t complain. My life is at a different, but overall good, place right now.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/230972207</link><guid>http://thisjustin.tumblr.com/post/230972207</guid><pubDate>Tue, 03 Nov 2009 02:16:00 +0800</pubDate></item><item><title>marklim:
