first and last…
Posted on May 30, 2008
It’s way past 6 in the evening and I’m still in the office. My phone is dead because a lot of people kept on sending text messages to me, and thus the dead battery. The department where I am right now is almost close to being empty. Only Ms. Nolee and Sir Raymond are the only ones left, along with Sir Dan’s stuff cause I think he left for a meeting a while ago…
I know I’m only up to 5:30, supposed to be… But I want to extend solely because I want to finish my internship, ASAP, and because I am too lazy to go home. I computed my hours… If I leave today at 7 in the evening, I only have 4 hours left of the service. If I leave 8, that gives me 3 hours. I had targeted that I leave at 8, depending on what time the laundry shop I’m supposed to catch closes.
Okay… I heard another logging off sound from Windows. Someone is on their way home again. Sigh…
I am still very, very bored…
Which reminds me, we have an assignment for INTPHIL for Monday… And guess what, I haven’t done it yet… Everything is so boring this term! The only thing that might seem exciting would the thesis, and probably 3DGRAFX… Other than that, everything seems boring…
It’s the first week of class… And it’s my last few days here in ASTI. I don’t know if I’m happy or not. I’m a bit happy inside considering that I won’t have to go back to the business district of the city every other day. I’m sad because I will miss the people here… Well for one thing, I am sad that school has already started… I didn’t even get the chance to enjoy my vacation! I demand for a vacation! 
First Day of Classes
Posted on May 27, 2008
Yesterday, I had my first set of classes. 3DGRAFX, MEASDEV, and finally INTPHIL… 3DGRAFX of course is 3D Graphics in our course codes. I have Doc Bong who was also a professor of my older sister back when she was in college. MEASDEV is Measurements in (of ?) Development which tackles about how to create evaluation, assessments and testing for… I dunno… Students..? Survey questions…? I swear when the prof was talking, I was listening but nothing seems to be going inside my head…
INTPHIL is Introduction to Philosophy… And, we have an Indian teacher! …. Ok, I’m sure it won’t be that bad… But I’m guessing it’ll be a bit hard to keep up with his lectures because of the accent… I guess, like he said, we’ll get used to it after some time.. I really hope we do..
Then currently, I am at the office… Today is a Tuesday and I don’t have classes till 4:10… My classes every Tuesdays and Thursdays are only from 4:20 till 5:10 in the afternoon. Makes you wonder why I didn’t take up the class on a Monday - Wednesday schedule… I don’t know myself… I just didn’t feel like taking up Religion when I’m already taking up Philosophy… I might be too much on religion by the time I get out of this term….
Later, I have LITERA1… I think it tackles about Philippine Literature… I don’t know since I haven’t gone in to the class and since it’s only the second day today…
I miss having a roommate.. My cousin moved out and stayed in the condo a bit far from the university.. It is cheaper that way anyways… But the traffic.. Gad.
Currently, I have no internet connection at my place. So I’d have to bear with it for a while… Although it won’t be much of a problem cause I change houses every other day cause I still have work… Although the router at my sister’s place is busted so, still, no internet…
All I have with me is Sherlock Holmes and Princess Diaries VIII (or was that IX…? I can’t remember.. ) and The Angel and Demon to read… 
Overnight Vacation
Posted on May 24, 2008
I went home to the province today because I miss the atmosphere here… The quiet and joyful atmosphere unlike what I experience in our condo in Manila. Also another reason for that is because my oldest sister was in a rage because she couldn’t access the router there - she is way too short tempered to even wait for anything.
So anyways, the moment I walked into the house, I was greeted by my niece who was carrying my dad’s shoes thinking it was his slippers. When she saw me, she let go of the shoe and went straight to me to have me carry her (she’s currently a year and 8 months, nearing nine this 27th)… I missed that.. The way that she’s too cute and adorable and is always there to greet you once you open the door…
It’s a Saturday night, nearing 12 midnight and tomorrow, I will be returning to the city. Why? Aside from the fact that I still have my internship, classes start this Monday… So, I go to school Monday and Wednesday. Then from 8AM till around 3:30PM during Tuesdays and Thursdays I will be at the office… Then whole day during Fridays… Such a tight schedule and it’s only the first week of classes…
Basically, I only have an overnight here at the province before I return back to reality… Can’t I stay here a little longer…? :(
Expect a little less blogging starting Monday… Since it will be my last week next week for work, I heard that they will be giving me boxes of documents to scan.. @.@ So I guess I have to go back to the office after my class on Tuesdays and Thursdays just to finish all that is needed to be done I don’t leave anything unfinished… Unless it is a self-proclaimed project… I might even extend the 200-hour max if I do that.. Not that it would increase my grade… 
High School Survey…

Tag!
Posted on May 21, 2008
I was tagged my Jeannie about the 10 Random Facts… But since I’ve already done it, I decided to do her other tag even though I wasn’t tagged there…
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people and post a comment to the person who tagged you once you’ve posted your three sentences.
NEAREST BOOK: Sherlock Holmes (hey, can’t blame a person for being so interested in mysteries… )
Page 123 sentece 6, 7 and 8 says:
Again and again I had registered a vow that I should deliver my soul upon the subject; but there was that in the cool, nonchalant air of my companion which made him the last man with whom one would care to take anything approaching to a liberty. His great powers, his masterly manner, and the experience which I had had of his many extraordinary qualities, all made me different and backward in crossing him.
Yet upon that afternoon, whether it was the Beaune which I had taken with my lunch or the additional exasperation produced by the extreme deliberation of his manner, I suddenly felt that I could hold out no longer.
That was it… Long sentences… @.@
Anyways… I tag……. Onee-chan, Misty, Tori, Erin, Mag
