Samsung Pays...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9j21wG6rz1qcy16eo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://ayyeitskevinjohn.tumblr.com/post/30501657182/vhattitsryan-bananakimchi-samsung-pays" class="tumblr_blog"&gt;ayyeitskevinjohn&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Samsung Pays Apple $1 Billion Sending 30 Trucks Full of 5 Cents Coins&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;More than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins arrived at Apple’s headquarters in California. Initially,  the security company that protects the facility said the trucks were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim Cook (Apple CEO) received a call from Samsung CEO explaining that  they will pay $1 billion dollars for the fine recently ruled against the South Korean company in this way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the funny part is that the signed document does not specify a single payment method, so Samsung is entitled to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in the way they deem best.&lt;span id="more-2325"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This dirty but genius geek troll play is a new headache to Apple executives as they will need to put in long hours counting all that money, to check if it is all there and to try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will accept all the coins.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the media that his company is not going to be intimidated by a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want to play dirty, they also know how to do it.You can use your coins to buy refreshments at the little machine for life or melt the coins to make computers, that’s not my problem, I already paid them and fulfilled the law.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;fucking amazing. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;HAHAHAHAHA yessss&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;genius&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hahaha eat that!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/30508358503</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/30508358503</guid><pubDate>Thu, 30 Aug 2012 02:38:29 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>INSANITY DAY 1: 

I woke up this morning and decided to go...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9k1ubdwK31qfmyt7o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;INSANITY DAY 1: &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I woke up this morning and decided to go shopping. Lucky me, Kmart had a weighing scale on sale! This is the very sucky, painful, and heartbreaking part of getting a weighing scale. Its been months since I last stepped on one, and I have to admit, I was shocked at the number! I thought how could I let myself go? How could I ever get that heavy?? A few months ago, I was 190 lbs. I realllllly dont feel that heavy and was in denial. I weighed myself today and it said I am 201.1 lbs. Are you freaking serious?? I always said I would get my highschool body back someday but never acted on it. I was a chain smoker, I loved eating food, I loved sleeping and then! Marriage Problems.. Insecurity, Insomnia, stress, depression all started kicking in. I felt so ugly, so unwanted. I am only turning 25 but I can finally feel the effects of being overweight and a heavy smoker. I live on the 3rd floor and I am always trying to just make it upstairs without breathing so hard. My clothes were getting tight, and I felt like my husband didnt want me. I always had to fight (literally) for his attention. I was sick of myself.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Took a vacation to my hometown which is a 30-45 minute flight away. And it took one of those Insanity infomercials to kick it in me. Right away, I texted my husband (who I was already pissed at) to ask how much we had in our account and purchased the DVDs online. I know I could have asked friends to burn me cds or make file transfers but I thought, thats how I did it before. I thought “Oh well I didnt pay for this.. So its ok if I fail. No loss here.” So I invested in a genuine set of DVDs. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I prepped myself a week before today, I quit smoking—cold turkey. Its been 6 days now. :-D I started eating healthier and just been drinking soooo much water. I always try to keep my meals healthy and if I cant, I just control my portions. I listen to my tummy when it says YOU ARE FULL! And I drink alot of water while I eat so I get full much quicker. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Today was my first day of Insanity. THE FIT TEST. Omagah.. I watched it and I was like, “Thats doable!” I then fixed my NOS BLAST energy drink. It was tooooooo freaking sweet.But not even 30 seconds after, I started sweating and getting energized. As soon as we started doing the warmups I was like mann I can feel how heavy I am now! Stick to it! I couldnt do alot and kept pausing but I think I did well for my first time. It was really hard but felt so good to hear Shaun T. say congratulations for making it through the fit test. Lol&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After all of that, I mixed up my Perfect Storm Results &amp; Recovery Formula. It only came in Blue Raspberry and was very jello-y and uberrrr sweet. I felt like I could puke it out. But I fought through it cuz its supposed to help your muscles recover and rebuild. Oh! That means little to no soreness after your workout! Pretty freaking awesome and worth it if you ask me! I just gulped it down little by little till it was gone. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I rested for a bit then took a hot shower. Man, did that feel good!! After that, I had grilled chicken with a little garlic fried rice. Remember you dont need to stop eating foods you love. Portion Control people!! Eat half now and half later. Also have little snacks in between your 3 meals. Starving yourself will only hurt your health. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;59 more days to go! Dig Deeper!!!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
So, thank you for reading my blog. Follow my Insanity Journey!!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/30507962788</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/30507962788</guid><pubDate>Thu, 30 Aug 2012 02:25:23 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>what I’ve been doing lately. &lt;3</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6axbbuzrG1qfmyt7o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6axbbuzrG1qfmyt7o2_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6axbbuzrG1qfmyt7o3_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6axbbuzrG1qfmyt7o4_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;what I’ve been doing lately. &lt;3&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/26035979724</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/26035979724</guid><pubDate>Wed, 27 Jun 2012 20:28:20 -0400</pubDate><category>photography strobist family love sweet16 portraits beach sunset guam</category><category>photography</category><category>strobist</category><category>family</category><category>love</category><category>sweet16</category><category>portraits</category><category>beach</category><category>sunset</category><category>guam</category></item><item><title>My latest set with Alyssa Sablan. </title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o3_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o2_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o4_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o5_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o6_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m533d74o991qfmyt7o7_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;My latest set with Alyssa Sablan. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/24393459178</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/24393459178</guid><pubDate>Mon, 04 Jun 2012 04:24:37 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>In regards to your story on Manong by the Road...I was just wondering if you had tried to track down his daughter. Maybe now, she can take care of her father after all the years he took care of her. This story breaks my heart :( how could any adult not want to care for their parent(s)</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I have contacted all of his kids. They have all been reaching out to Manong up until dec. 2011. they never knew his situation because he would never mention it to them. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/16495762635</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/16495762635</guid><pubDate>Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:29:17 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Thank you. It saddens me that Manong thinks he's a burden. I feel that is because, in our modern culture, many have forgotten our ways of tribal living. Traditionally, Manong as an elder, would be revered in his community because of his wisdom and experience. That is where he would be taking care of us. He would be involved and not a burden. Respect Our Elders. Thank you again.</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Amen!! Please keep in mind though that with this story, his family has come forward and told me their side, so they have never abandoned him.. they just have a conflict with manong’s new family and that is why they can never talk to each other properly. Manong also never told his family of his conditions here in Guam. they all thought he was still working at payless. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/16495672239</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/16495672239</guid><pubDate>Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:27:58 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>can you call me i would like to make a donation.  482-6924 mona</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi mona.. as of now, I am no longer accepting donations on behalf of Manong. there are alot of wreckers out there looking to flip this story.

I linked him to Manong's story and he told me that the reason why we doesn't stay at the shelter is because he won't do the housework. [You get free housing, but there are chores that you must do.] He just sleeps there then goes out during the day. He has money, and a car. Please don't let this be a scam for you to get $$$ because I see you collecting via paypal and etc...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I can see where you are coming from Anonymous. Manong is an old man.. he has a bad back and can be a little hard headed. whatever he chooses to do, is his decision though. let’s not judge him just because he did not want to do house chores. this is not a scam either. i have not accepted ANY funds from paypal. If you keep up to date with my facebook page, you can see all updates and that I have notified EVERYONE that I will not be accepting paypal transfers. hope this helps.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/16495255316</link><guid>http://mariesayson.tumblr.com/post/16495255316</guid><pubDate>Wed, 25 Jan 2012 20:22:10 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>such a beautiful, heartfelt, sad, and inspiring story.
