ION

[migrated from livejournal]


ION is kicking in my system. i have been going through my days lately without coffee - just ION. Well, it's the best energy drink around - i think - well, if you base it on the taste alone...I have tried Bacchus - and...it just tasted like medicine soda! hahaha...

on to other things.

Well, I was nearly brought to ears by one of the segment in American Idol: Idol Gives Back. I really liked how Carrie Underwood sang Stand by Me (by whomever I don't really know who did the original)...I was also really amazed and had goosebumps at the effort American idol showed in trying to really find a way of giving back to the less fortunate Americans and the more less fortunate Africans. There was this one segment where they featured a young kid whose entirely family is gone and he's left with his sister. They make a real effort to go to school and study as well as maintain a living...plus they live in a slum which according to Seacrest was the size of Central Park, NY (I don't know how big that is) and in that area, 1.2 million Africans live. I was moved.

Yey! I was able to make the RF ASK Module work. I did the necessary antenna adjustments...accomplished that yesterday...and did a simple program that would transmit and receive via UART0. Well, to say the least, I am impressed by the progress I am making. Well, in a way, it's boosting my self-confidence of actually making something work. Well, I have had bad experiences before and it's always the lack in self-confidence in electronics that's kind of putting me down...but, on I am getting over it. I am glad.

The Slovanian exchange between Bruce and Tina was a great idea. Well, for one thing, I am quite entertained. But, I never really find the time to watch Pinoy Big Brother, most of the time, I forget it's even on air because I am watching other channels. Here are some shows that I spend my time watching:

1. grey's anatomy - I just love how tragic the episodes I have seen so far are. Well, the only two episodes I really remember are the ones where there was this man who had a bomb stuck in his lung and when Burke was shot and izzie had already cut the "life line" of Danny. I was really disturbed by the tragic storyline. Of course, I couldn't wait for next week to see what happens so I even read the episode recap of it hehehe.

2. Avatar: The Last Airbended - Man, this is one of the best animations I have seen. Not because of the animation but more on the storyline. It's cartoon but it's not exactly meant just for the younger audiences. In fact, the show contains mature themes like rage - well that's mature right? Hmm, I have already finished the two seasons...and i even had to go to Quiapo to get myself a copy. Well, I couldn't wait for the rest of the 30% of the two seasons I was downloading.

3. Well, I said to myself that I'l be watching Prison Break season 2 when the whole season is finished...but....I just can't seem to avoid watching the series being aired at Crime and Suspense Channel during thursdays at ten.

4. CSI season something. Man! This has got to be one of the best seasons - well if not, then one of the season that had the best "series of episodes." I was so captivated by their serial killer who created models of the scene of the crime - on point. Well, I was disappointed with how they ended it, but the story nevertheless was satisfactory...I also liked the episode on the twins....plus...Grissom is going on a sabbatical?! He's going to teach at some University?! OH no! well, something to look forward to.

5. On Tuesdays, well, I like watching the Search for the next doll. It doesn't exactly feel like another talent show of the sort. Well, the challenges I think are more exciting and it's a SHOW.  I just can't quite put my finger on it. But, the show is good.

etc.

Haay....Well, for other other things. I like the life I am living right now...I just have so much time in my hands...ahhhhhh.....freedom. Well, the past year was a year of trials and stuff...but I did get my fair share of experience and I am thankful for Circuit for giving me that opportunity. But now, I have to keep myself busy not only in my acads (for honorific amibtions) as well as in IRC (for accomplishing the undergraduate research project). I love my locker at IRC. it's useful. IRC has a very cold temperature which I am thoroughly liking - as well as - well, it's a learning experience especially with the RF modules that I am working on. Haay...Life. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that sometimes, I do doubt my decision in going through my 190->198 alone. I mean, all the other batchmates that I have in IRC have groups/mates. I was offered if I wanted to be in a group and I simply answered, well, hmm...I forgot exactly which of the two I said: was it - Sir, if I can do the project by myself, then why not - or was it - oh never mind the other - I think this was what I said. So, yeah, sometimes I do doubt the choice that I made - but - the reason behind the initial conviction is that, in the real world, you will need to be independent. And I figured that, by working on this endeavor alone (like other irc grads, jonats, ren and rj) then if I do indeed make it through in one piece, then I can say that I am ready for the world that I am about to face (if i do decide to get a job - which is still a decision left hanging because I may want to take up MS - with an initial condition - if I get accepted as TA - which, is still not clear but will soon be made clear).

So on with the post - independence. 

no, just kidding. that's about it. I may post about it some other time. Hmm...for some weird reason, I keep forgetting that I do have a stat 101 exam tomorrow. No wait, that's probably because I studied it last monday thinking that it would be on tuesday which ended up NOT - because it's tomorrow.

good night.

hot and cold

[migrated from livejournal]


man, it's so hot during the day - - and well, even at night. grabe kaya when you take a shower here at home, the first spurts of water are warm....but eventually becomes cold. ganun ka grabe yung init na hanggang pipes ng bahay apektado...haay....grabe...hmm...basta ang init. at lalong mas evident kapag galing sa kwarto ko at kunwari kukuha ako ng tubig sa baba....ang init na agad hehehe...paano ba naman...full blast yung aircon sa kwarto. reklamo nga ng mommy ko, na ang taas ng kuryente...sagot ko nalang...eh mainit eh...tapos in the back of my mind...siyempre....kaya nga may aircon para hindi mainitan....kung matatakot ka sa gastos ng kuryente hehehehe....=p

anyway...been trying to take care of some things for moving out. i plan to move on to blogspot./blogger. eventually. but for now, if it's not ready yet....dito dito muna.

also...ang saya ng summer classes ko. i never thought 2 hours could just pass by so quickly...well....basta! nagugulat nalang ako especially sa stat (kasi malamig lamig naman) na dismissed na kami! well sa pi hindi ako ganuong nagugulat kasi ang init eh - ang dami namin sa classroom hehehe...and....unahan pa sa upuan kasi kung late ka upo ka sa floor. masaya pala magturo yung mga teachers na nakuha ko kaya di ganuon ako nabobore - kung si sir escoto siguro yan....parang 1 week na sa tagal ang two hours na lec.

on some other note, yey! im making good progress with trying to "play" with the rf modules i have been tasked to "play" with.

on the other hand yet again, Congratulations to the Graduates!!! to my friends! especially rose! sabi sayo wag ka na magswimming eh! hahahaha... i meant that in the context of you taking 20 units or was it 21 in your last sem ever.

Haaay....another random thought...grabe naiinis ako sa schedule for next sem - na wala kang choice kung hindi isang elective nalang (assuming ayaw mong mag grad elective ulit) kung mag coe 115 ka at 53....kaya ang naisip kong solution since - nagiisip na talaga ako ng mga plano eh...kumuha ng isang course na hindi naman na macredit since tapos na ako ng free elective...para walang pressure sa course na yun ng grade...such that lalalbas na parang 13 units lang talaga ang kinacareer ko pero 16 units naman talaga ang inenroll ko. naisip ko lang kasi na kung mag isa pa akong eee elective....sa last sem ko....parang isa nalang talaga yung subject na pinapasukan ko which is ece 113 - eh kasi diba ang 198 naman walang class meetings....so parang kukuha ng extra unit then see from there kung kukuha pa ba ako ulit ng second course nun na lalabas 15 units ako sa last sem kung tutuusin na...ten units lang talaga yung course. hahahah...ewan! parang ayaw ko pala mag 15 hehehehe....basta ganun. fyi - intsik 10 yung tinutukoy kong kunin. na baka hindi nalang assuming makahanap ako ng maging classmate sa grad electvie. basta ang importante - go for honors ehhehe.

SELF SUPPORTING

[migrated from livejournal]


okay...so...some updates:

1) another new year for me. my birthday...and again, the same feeling i had last year...a feeling of unease. maybe the unease is caused by the recent outcome of the grades i have....the gwa that i will be getting for this sem will not be lower than about 1.94...which will totally bring down the current gwa that i have from 1.78 ~1.77 to about 1.81...so...more effort...but never mind that. that's number 2. but, yes the birthday. I believe this feeling has been going on for two years now. I just don't feel like celebrating. there's just something missing but I cant quite put it right. I mean, there's also a mixed of partial fulfillment of some sort. I just don't feel like it. It just feels like any ordinary day. Oh well, maybe that's not really something special...maybe a lot fo people actually feel the same way I do...but anyway...there's still a long road ahead of me...and...again, my problem is just getting stuck up in both the past and the present that I seldom look forward to things...Like now, I'm still stuck up on the what-ifs this and that for the subjects that I took. So many what-ifs that could have ended in me just maintaining instead of trying to get a hit on it.

2) Haay...for number 2. The current motivation for me in really excelling for my studies is this. Before, my sister told me that if I graduate with honors, She'll buy me a new car...and since I am already 21...the registration can be made for me. Meaning, I actually own the car. My property...and the motivation was even further strengthened when my dad just called right now and told me that if do graduate with honors, the he might but me a car...and...my reaction was...to get rid of that nasty word ----"MIGHT"-----I immediately gave my response as this "aheheheh...baka pwede naman po kayong maghati ni achie, nangako rin po siya na bibigyan niya ako ng kotse." hehehe...well, if this will be the goal that i am going to build up myself for. My eyes are currently focused on a toyota fortuner. the black one. =) So, that's about 1.,6M. hehehe...dad, sis, and maybe my bro as well - since he may have migrated to new zealand by then - ready the money!

3) for an update on the first 2, I need to get 1 on both my summer classes....and then 1.5 something in my first sem gwa and then...198 - - 1.25? and then....113 - 1.5? 1.75?...Lord, please help me make this all go well..

4) So, self supporting. For the past days, i actually have not been getting any allowances. hehehe, ive been forgetting to ask my mom for some moolahs. that's why I don't have any money as of the moment. Wala pa akong pangblowout- and nahihiya na ako humingi sa nanay ko ng pangblow out sa mga friends ko. eh kasi ba naman...21 na ako eh! tsaka...im sure...sasabihin lang ng mommy ko na meron naman akong pera.......uhmm.....wala kaya...hehehe...actually, meron naman pala come to think of it...pero ipon ko yun eh. dun ko nilalagay lahat ng ilang porsyente ng mga perang regalo...para pag nagbakasyon or what may pera...siguro sabihin nalang natin na nakakapanghinayang na gumastos ng pera lalo na kung sa sarili mong bulsa manggagaling...ang hirap talaga maging self-supporting. diba rose? diba norman? =)

5) a miracle has occured! I got a 2 in my eee 105 class. And there I was thoroughly worried of getting a 3-2.5 grade...that was when I assumed that I would be getting a 1.5 in doc m's 141 class which turned out to be a total disappointment...I got a 2...but I guess you can say that I did deserve it...I was counting on the fact that he would curve the grades that much to accomodate me getting steps higher. Oh yeah, getting back to 105, well, I was seriously worried about it because of the fact that when I saw the exam average of the class, only three of US. hehehe talagang dapat sabihing US...got a passing exam average....I was the second highest with 61.something...and the third got 60.something...but my ME was only 70...and my quizzes was only about 33...eh kasi naman ang hirap magpaquiz ni sir. minsan kaya biglang naglabas ng timing diagrams tapos kelangang gawan ng statediagrams...eh hello? kelan ba ako huling nag eee 21...and hindi naman ako coe...wala rin siya sa libro so kahit magbasa ako dapat nakasalalay sa fact na malakas ang retention sa memory ko ng mga past lessons/courses. anyway, ayun nga, moving on...tuwang tuwa talaga ako ng makakuha ako ng 2 kasi nga di ko inexpect...so...ang conclusion...Got to believe in magic din with sir bob...

6) MS or job offers. Nakakatuwa talaga mga kaibigan ko...buti nalang at yan nalang ang mga pinoproblema...so...dahil kaibigan ko sila, makikisama na rin ako. Well, tempting nga naman mag MS kasi nga yung benefits tsaka yung sa NGSE, may bond nga pero walang specific company or something basta stay in the philippines....Which got me thinking on what future path I should be trekking. I mean, come on, you also get a monthly stipend of 12k pesos?! That's a tempting offer. Pero, ang nagpapabago lang anman sa isip ko is the fact na if I want to continue studying, I want to at least give it a shot abroad...first dahil mas masaya...and the sense of independence it offers is way way better. I mean, kasi pag nag ms...uuwi ka parin sa same house, though you won't be overly dependent on your parent's money...hehehee...pero for me, that won't be a problem as long as my parent's are willing to give. Hehehe....pag magdate kaya kapatid ko sa alabang dahil yun na yung in between sa kanila ng girlfriend niya from batangas, mom ko tatanungin pa kapatid ko kung may pera siya tapos bibigyan ng 2000 pang gas and allowance...hmm...wait...di ko lang maalala kung yan ba yung time na umuwi rito kapatid ko galing abroad so wala talaga siyang pesos or bago yun. hehehe...anyway...baka mabasa to ng kapatid ko...congratulations sa new zealand!

7) the end.

Worst feeling ever...EVER

[migrated from livejournal]


RANT POST:

so, the third exam of eee 51 has come to an end. so...that just leaves me with one last exam left - ece 141.

and damn...you know that feeling when everything is just so tense that you just want to puke or something to make yourself feel better. similar sensation going on right now with me.

eee 51 ended. i would have aced the exam had i achieved the most commonest of common sense to think that a pmos is ON when the input is a logic 0. i had answered the problem thinking that it was the other way around. I HAD DRAWN THE GRAPH THAT PROVED THAT MY INITIAL BELIEF WAS WRONG! Shet talaga. If I had aced that exam, then my grade in 51 would have come between 1.5 and 1.25...pero shet talaga tang-ina. nakakainis....lalo pa tuloy akong natensiyonado.

Iniisip ko na...isang summer nalang...matapos ang summer na yun...malalaman ko na kung cum laude standing ako or hindi...ayun nalang talaga eh...kaya sobrang gusto kong magsuka or basta hindi makalma sikmura ko dahil sa kakaisip.

lalo pa akong nabwibwisit kasi hindi ko maiwasan na wag isipin yung mga WHAT IFS...eh kasi tapos na eh...what's done is done, just learn from it and move on...pero ako...hindi ko magawa eh. THE DRIVE IS SO MUCH STRONGER THAT I'D RATHER WALLOW IN WHAT IF CIRCUMSTANCES - DELUSIONS...

shet talaga...kelangan ko ng pagsipagan ang pag-aral ng 141...shet talaga...sana hindi maging dahilan ang PMOS na yan para mawala lahat ng mga expectations ko...sana lang talaga...sana lang talaga mas may tiwala pa ako sa sarili pero...ang hirap eh...

shet talaga. sana matapos na ang summer classes para malaman ko na ang kalalabasan ng lahat...sana...sana...

sana man lang maagang regalo yung assurance na yun sa birthday ko...hahaay...

shet.

relaksasi

[migrated from livejournal]


uhh.

ece 141 make up class kanina 10a-12n. nakakaaliw yung lesson kahit papaano. yun lang.

went home - slept.

the night before: friends came over - watched dreamgirls. i feel Hudson deserved the oscar and golden globe.

kanina lang.

had a haircuit. sabi ko sa gugupit. gusto ko yung pang mukhang koreano hahahaa...then comment siya may koreano kanina gusto gupit pilipino...and ako naman...taas kilay...ano ka feeling close?

on impulse, sabi ko pafacial tayo...then akyat kami...then...sabi ko...ayaw ko sa let's face it kasi crowded eh...di ko gusto yung parang may katabi ka rin mga 2 inches away...basta...ewan ko hirap explain...claustrophobic? 

anyway,katabi kasi niya relaksasi sa sm city...so sabi ko diyan nalang...then dapat facial eh pang mga mantikaing mukha lang meron wala na yung ibang service...sabi ko ayaw ko...then sabi ng mom ko massage nalang...at first hesitant ako kasi ayaw ko lumabas at magikot ikot na parang naligo ng "oil" or whatever .hahaha...then sige go...

haay...napunta ako sa sauna...i thought id try it...but no!!! hhahah...di ako nagenjoy...claustrophobia....plus yung init...if i wasnt claustrophobic then siguro nasuper relax ako...pero ayun nga...after nun shower...then massage...

nakakaaliw...ang galing eh...at one point nagulat ako kasi bumulong yung masahista...sabi niya gusto niyo po ba yung may apak na service? err....the first thing that came to my mind was...dominatrix? ahhaha...the process wasnt really a turn on. ayaw ko nga that on my first -spa- experience...........................................................   .....

anyway, ayun nagpaapak nga ako...hahaha.

what goes around.

[migrated from livejournal]


ever since ive seen the video of justin timeberlake's what goes around comes back around with scarlette johannsen...
i've been obsessed in listening to it...and the track runs for about 7 minutes...for the whole day today, i've played it on my ipod 20 times more or less...so that's how many minutes all in all?
and...im not even a bit exhausted from listening to it. more more.

anyway, this post will tackle most of the things that i want to be doing for my almost last year that's coming really really soon.

1. capoiera - ive seen it - jaw dropped with awe. been actually looking for some school or gym or whatever that offers lessons. then i forgot about it. then the want to actually try it out surfaced upon reading about it over someone's blog. hehehe...let's not name the person. it's almost to the extent of stalking but not quite because there's no ill intent.

2. tennis - just because i know it's fun and because i need to get into some sport. and...because...i want to get into shape. and maybe a way of being able to actually start kicking the habit. who knows...i might end up liking tennis over needing "it"

3. time management - this year has seriously been the worst time management year for me. and...i need to reevaluate myself to actually get a head start on fixing this aspect of my life. i'm going to need it more than ever for next year if i wish to earn myself the most anticipated prize ever...but...this could mean goodbye on console gaming? and other time wasting stuff...like this laptop and all its multimedia content...and the tv in my room...oh no!

(4) - - - - - uhm...as an aside, i just saw the news on this live fire in pasay city which crisped 200 houses down to ember...and it showed a footage of people actually getting water from an open sewage track....and there was this one guy who was over the whole (he had his feet pushed against the walls of the opening) and he was in charge of dipping the pails into the sewage water to fill them up...and along the minutes/seconds of the footage it (the sewage water) splashed him all over his space and i was like....ugh... anyway - this will serve as an intro to my opinion on metro manila's urban planning -damn...it sucks big time! especially sa mga squatters area - i wish the government had more control on those land properties...so that if ever there's fire, the alleys or whatchamacallit will not be too narrow for firemen to walk through.....AND....this very discriminating thought (not mine though, i just saw through it) or opinion has just surfaced.

"I just realized that whenever I hear news on some wild fire in a squatters area I don't hear the reporters or journalists reporting on how much was lost in terms of money. I don't know if it's just me but when houses or other estates or anything that's not established on squatted land I always hear them saying how much money was lost. (or maybe the hearing is just in my head)."

4. acads and lab - i have plans on these two things...but i need to further improve myself on this matter by fixing up #3. but as an aside to the present...i really really really really hope that everything turns out okay for me this semester. i mean...i got some hope when i got my ece 141 first exam....eee105 first exam also brought me hope - i passed the first exam!....hmmm what else...i don't know...things seem closer to ending now that ee275 is just a snatch away from over.

5. mad partying - hahaha...no comment.

6. independence and freedom - now, after four years of being in circuit...im...how should i say it...ready to retire? as i had a conversation with a friend once before...i've already decided to leave my 5th year room for "soul searching" or uhm...exploring life so that I know to where I wish to head to after... I mean...this is life we are talking about...life after college is something I wish to prepare for. I have huge ambitions and I don't think preoccupying my mind with extracurricular activities will help me achieve those goals...In short, it will basically be me - having more time to myself...which...hahaha...could lead to problem number 3. time management. but...if my plans on having a sport goes well, then, that would answer that question..

and...hahaha time management!!! better stop now.

300

[migrated from livejournal]

(for a lack of a better word)...hahaha...it was so fun watching it...i need to buy the original dvd so that i can see the making of it....everything just looked so real. the beheading...the way the skin just wants to stick to each other till it gets torn off because of gravity...

[migrated from livejournal]

2. i bought new sandals...i have been complaining to my mom...but mostly to myself that i have sweaty feet whenever i wear my slippers. well, especially the black nike one that i have been wearing recently...well...na engganyo kasi ako sa add na nakita ko sa geox so i decided nun pa na bibili ako ng okay ng slippers....and then the opportunity came up. my sister gave me $100 when she went back to guam so i have some money...and i looked around...geox sandals/slippers cost 4000...no way! im not that rich...and then...thank God! My mom was looking for dumbells na magaan lang according to her (na reaction ko? ha? meron tayo sa bahay ah! --mga 8 pounds siguro yun or something -- mabigat daw.) pero ayun nga...buti nalang she was looking for some of those kaya we dropped by toby's after i had my harry potter book reserved at fully booked. rebate naman pala sa magiging price ng harry potter book yung down so okay lang. sabi kasi ni issa hindi raw ganun sa national...anyway...yey! so here's the sandals i found...KEEN yung brand niya...i heard it's the latest trend or something na sikat sa US...i wouldnt know though, im not from there.

at dito nagsimula ang open forum.

[migrated from livejournal]


squEEEze - over.
now's time to focus on the things that really matter.
im just so thankful to my friends and most execom and my family (pa, ma...sinuot ko lang yung pin ni Risha...hindi na ako tatakbo...magaaral na po ako ng mas mabuti...at mag hahanap ng sport...para...pag dating ng gradpic eh mabawasan ang taba ko. at siyempre...sana grumaduate with honors.)

sabi ko sa isa kong kaibigan.
"siguro si ______ tatakbo dahil gusto nalang daanin ang future sa extracurricular activities. wala ng pag-asa kung acads eh."
im just so mean...pero...opinion ko yan eh. pakelam mo.

lounged at bo's katipunan. maayos yung place and the cakes were delicious! hahaha...i treated my friends cake para masaya. something like a sort of short celebration para sa kalayaan ko.

hahaha...well, sorry kung kalayaan talaga ang term pero wala lang. sa wakas hindi na ako mapipilitang makisama sa kanya - out of professionalism. hahaha.

finally finally.
my monday's will be spent on other things aside from marketing.
not that i didnt like marketing. i liked it - very much...especially since it made me more extroverted than I was...

sa fincom na susunod...may advice is:

ODE to whoever you are na hindi naman ODE kasi hindi talaga siya ODE pero if you read between the lines...YOU'LL KNOW....if NOT...then...YOU MUST BE STUPID...OR WE'RE NOT THAT CLOSE....IF YOU DO KNOW....then either friend kita or kaaway or chismoso/a ka lang.

"kung mawala ang drive mo sa trabaho, then dapat marami kang resources. kasi kung wala kang resources then marapat lang na magresign ka na kasi wala na talaga. madadaan ang drive sa lahat ng bagay...dagdagan mo lang ng charisma para mas okay... pero kung may resource ka at may kontrabida sa buhay mo...then mawawala talaga ang drive mo. kelangan din matalino ka or kung hindi eh daanin mo sa sipag kasi - kung hindi ka isa sa dalawang bagay na yan eh - the next thing you know is that you're being booted out of eee. (hehehe san kaya ako sa dalawa??? =p fishing for something). Also, ienjoy mo ang company ng execom - kahit na may kontrabidang nagbubumida at tinatrato kayong lahat na parang katulong at sabi na nga niya mismo eh trabaho niya ang mag-utos....go parin!...wag kang matakot magsalita laban sa kanya kasi kung tatahimik ka lang...eh di didibdibin mo lang lahat ng mga galit mo....kaya dapat very vocal ka about what you feel...also, as na enjoy ko ang marketing...you should like talking to people. ako i enjoyed talking to people ive worked with like yung mga tauhan sa polysystem, bitmicro etc etc...you should be able to communicate well...and you should be prepared to speak your mind and lead the conversation. hindi pwede sa fin ang tahimik tahimik lang at sumusunod lang sa usapan tsaka yung mababa yung social maturity. dapat ikaw ang magset ng pace. kahit nga mga guards ng eee eh nakakuwentuhan ko na...pero siyempre hindi dapat feeling close gaya ng ginagawa ng iba...basta mukhang feeling close pero hindi mo talaga feeling close...yung pinapakita mo lang na feeling close ka pero hindi mo iniisip at dinidibdib na feeling close ka...hindi yan sa namamlastic pero that's why some people have a warm personality...getting back - kasi mali yun eh...hehehe...tingnan mo nalang ang ibang mga taong sigurong tatakbo sa election...baka sa kakafeeling close nila eh nafeel na nga nila at sa tingin nila popular na sila at mananalo sa election dahil sa nakuha na nila ang kiliti ng mga tao....

"also....isipin mo nalang na dapat...ang philosophy ko kasi...dapat ang mga tao mo subukan mong inspire na gawin nila ang trabaho nila sa sarili nilang pagkukusa...hindi yung dapat nila gawin dahil inuutos mo. dapat maging leader ka na nagiinspire sa mga tauhan mo....HINDI ENOUGH NA MAGPATAWA KA LANG...AT DAANIN PA MINSAN ANG PAGPAPATAWA AT THE EXPENSE OF OTHER PEOPLE'S SHORTCOMING,FAILURE or BAD RUMORS - IN SHORT...BACKBITING JOKES...PEOPLE SHOULD VOTE FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU INSPIRE THEM - NOT MAKE THEM LAUGH. kasi...WHAT PEOPLE WANT ARE LEADERS...NOT CLOWNS."

"Take this year's example....do not follow it. hahaha...admittedly, i wasnt a good leader...hindi naman sa nagmamalinis pero inako ko na rin ang karamihan ng job ng marketing because i have the most time. i didnt want to let you my members shoulder responsibilities knowing full well na hirap na kayo sa acad load niyo..I tried assigning pero they werent able to meet the progress i make each week with follow up kasi nga hindi sila parehas sa akin ng sked na walang class till 6pm on mondays and walang class till 1130 on thursdays. karamihan sa inyong mga mems ko nag23 and may mga exam sa mga subject na alam kong nahirapan ako...kaya hindi ko pinapamukha sa inyo na WOW ang galing ko...yang mga subjects na yan chicken yan or kakausapin ko si doc m at sasabihin kong gawin to or gawin yan dahil may event tayo...okay...mukhang joke ata yun...hindi ako nainspire eh....hindi rin naman ako natawa....pero joke yun siguro...pangit lang punchline...at siguro joke din na sabihin na walang marereport ang isang committee sa event dahil maliit lang naman trabaho nila.

"Sana rin pag ikaw na ang fincom head or kahit anong leader...wag kang mayabang at maingay at masalita at mayabang at naaagnas ang mukha (oops, under the belt - teka. meron bang nasa under ng belt mo? babae ka ba or lalake - literal meaning and implied one is contained in this statement.) bato bato sa langit...ang tamaan...GUILTY!...oi...nagdedeny...ayaw pa aminin sa sarili...hahaha...anyway, ayun nga, wag niyo ko gayahin kasi hindi ko nagampanan ang position ko to the best i can - and even to what i promised...pero...ganun talaga pag uninspired....-hindi na nga nangiinspire eh nangaaway pa ay hindi pala ganun yun...it's for the future - pero bakit kaya nung nakaraang taon lang eh - - - -ewan!

"sana ready ka rin gamitin ang sariling mong resources na ganun na nga ang mangyayari kasi nga...kelangan na eh...necessity....or pwede ring...wala ka ng ibang pwede pang masisi sa situation mo dahil ikaw mismo ang pumasok diyan...parang ganun...na parang ganun na hindi sa case ko. okay getting on with my whatever...

"sana rin pag ikaw na ang mga namention kong negative things above - eh...you have the decency to realize the monster that you are...ROWR! Siguro yan nalang ang naririnig ko sayo...eh kasi siguro ganun ka na nga talaga...isang halimaw na mapagmanipula ng mga tao...magingat kayo ibang tao ah...kung paminsan sa harap mo eh nakikipag joke siya sayo...eh maya maya sa likod mo eh pinagtatawanan ka na! hahahaha...ganyan talaga yan...my...as sabi nga ng group of wannabe psychologist friends eh...magingat kayo. para hindi kayo maging halimaw eh dapat hindi kayo neglected child na kulang sa attention at pagmamahal kaya nagkaroon ng maraming insecurities and bitterness sa buhay...kaya tuloy bad mouth ng bad mouth sa iba (fyi...hindi ako nagbabadmouth ah...hindi ko naman pinapangalanan ang mga/ang tinutukoy kong tao...blog ko to so....pakelam mo?! plus wag ka ngang feelingero at isipin mo ng ikaw nga tong nasasabi sa blog!- hahaha...joke lang...feel free to comment and siguro babarahin kita kung nasa bad mood ako...pero kung hindi...eh malay mo maging close pa tayo...nyek! asa...joke. hahaha...walang sense)


"hahaay...dapat din kung maging monster ka na...the only way to cure the illness is....SEX! hahaha joke...maling decision yun kung SEX ang pinlii mong sagot kasi...it can only get you worse...SEX develops cravings and increases the lust by a few notches especially if forbidden sex yan...plus...forbidden sex kasi is a term to use for the kind of sex that FORNICATES...parang laban between PORNOGRAPHY and ART...as an analogy sa cure to your monsterhood - dapat ART piliin mo. ART = friends...at hindi lang yung mga friends na gamitan pero true friends...best friends. hindi best friendssssss (hint hint: ahas - animal na mahilig gumapang sa gabi pag madilim at mukhang walang nakatingin...) yung mga friends talaga eh yung mga tinetreasure mo...at hindi dapat yung kind of friendship na basta babalewalain mo nalang para sa PORNOGRAPHY = SEX.

"Also, please kung maging leader ka, don't try to pose yourself above what you really are...parang social butterfly ka tuloy...oh well, siguro dahil sa mga taong o sa taong kasama mo. na naalala ko lang eh nabwisit ako na paguwi ko galing davao eh makikita ko diyan somewhere sa tabi tabi tabi tabi tabi tabi tabi ng - A! daan? B! gate? C! bahay? D! Wala? E! lahat! and the answer is! wala...kasi siguro nga wala talaga! hahaha...iba ang sinasabi sa iniisip...mas masarap mag isip...also, pag leader ka na....wag kang bend ng bend ng mga prinsipyo mo dahil importante talaga yun. Wag kayong matulad...."

OKAY?! hehehe...i know walang sense yan masyado sa iba...pero tanungin niyo si Rosario Reas - im sure maintindihan niya lahat yun. Best friend ko yun eh. san ka pa? - uy matatouch si rose. hahaha...tungeks...happy birthday ang ibig sabihin ko at happy graduation friend! Sana wala si mr. pogi diaz sa ratsky's on the 24th of april kasi...as it stands now...mabobore lang ako.

[migrated from livejournal]

monday:
-went to percdc, espana. made a new friend. hehehe...hello sir ronnie, paggrumaduate na ako libreng review ah. hehehe.
-intramuros - manilabulletin - got towed - settled - thanks to retired general _____ and may traffic enforcement group id - i was spared from paying 1500. 200 pesos worth of kotong is worth it....in a way...i was alone that time and i was running late for meeting melvin niduaza from accenture
-makati - accenture
-eastwood - astec.

i talked with a friend, last friday i think...oh yeah...it was...i was reviewing for my 51 exam scheduled the next day. the topic that was brought up was regarding taking graduate studies. i was at first...saying...well, i want to graduate asap so i can work and earn money...and then go up the ladder to earn more cash. but then my friend put things into perspective. the friend was saying like, in my situation, no one expects me to work in my family. my family has established itself. if there's anything that i need money for...well...it's not really need...but want. i WANT money...the friend goes on to say that he/she was in my position, then, she'd just go grab the opportunity to take a graduate course because that will be a feat in itself and that i at least am entitled to really take the opportunity of getting an MS...but then well, he/she won me over. he/she got me thinking and put my way of thinking into another perspective...getting a graduate course is not really a necessity but more like a privelege...that's why people, including me, are at awe when i/we hear people's name could out with something added at the end, ms ee or something...

now, im thinking like, i'll make sure to consider other options aside from working immediately and taking the board exams...right now, im just so bored with studying...i'll ask my family when the time comes (hopefully a year from now - if all goes according to plan) if they would want me to take graduate studies...but then again...im sure they'll say yes because...if i do accomplish it, then it will be another proud moment for the clan...the first ever...i remember my mom encouraging my brother to continue with his application to nanyang in singapore...but other opportunities came up and...it was my brother's life after all.

but then...still, i have no resolve. i'll settle this issue a year from now hopefully...but thanks friend for giving me that perspective.

my sister is currently undergoing sleep study in saint luke's. i wasnt able to go with them (my mom and sis) to saint luke's because circuit had its general assembly...i heard the place my sister is sleeping in is not too shabby...which got me really interested as to what exactly a sleep study is and how it is conducted...i hope it does solve certain sleep issues for my sister.
