About this blog

Hello there! Welcome to my personal website. I'm Jerome Locson from Zamboanga City. I am currently finishing my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at Ateneo de Zamboanga Univ. Also, I am working as an IT consultant and web developer. I also blog for b5media Tech Channel, Office Tweaks and Easy as VoIP.

Most of the time I am online; just coding, doing research, reading, chatting or just surfing the net. I love food and I love to eat a lot! When I'm stressed out, I sleep more than 12 hours. When I feel frustrated, I'd rather channel out my frustration to food tripping downtown... I'm no geek but I just consider myself one. I like technology and I love to create technology... and I hope I can launch my projects soon... will keep you posted about it. Thanks again for dropping by and enjoy!
