Under Events, Life, Vacation, Work

I’m almost done with college, all I’m waiting for right now is our final presentation (for the award we were nominated for) and that presentation will be on Monday from 10 – 12 noon. And finally, I am moving out of my dorm that same day. After the presentation, I will be evacuating from the place. FINALLY.. And right now, I am bored with my one week vacation, what more with my entire summer…?

Under Events, Family

This is my very first post (as I can remember) for Valentine’s Day. I can’t remember that I did something this fun before. But as far as Valentine’s is concerned, this is THE most fun Valentine’s Day I EVER had.

Under Events, Life

So, my birthday was last Friday (Jan 16th) and I can say that… Well… Happy, sad… Mixed emotions. What did I do to celebrate the day? Here was my itinerary for the weekend:

JAN 16.

12AM – I was doing thesis, trying to finish my part of the project. Karla texted me only to remind me that I just got old. Joyce and Bix came next through YM. Bix even scolded me (in a joking manner) that I wasn’t supposed to be doing thesis since it was my birthday. ANYWAYS, that was besides the point. I just remembered that conversation.

MORNING – I woke up around 10ish because of a horrible nightmare about a friend of my sister who became some sort of zombie-maker-girl thing. I don’t know! I just don’t want to remember it anymore..

11ish – Vinno came and greeted me (he greeted me that early morning as well, around 2ish). Then he gave me a box of 5 Ferreros and the gift which his aunt wanted him to give me. (I’ll list down the gifts later)

12 – 1PM – Me and Vinno went to the SM Mall of Asia to eat lunch and roam around. We ate lunch (his treat) at Karate Kid and then left the place SO full. We roamed around the mall for a couple of hours.

4:30PM – We went back to school cause he had to pay his remaining balance with his tuition fee and I was to meet up with Hazel (and supposed to be Marga but she couldn’t come).

6PM – Vinno left cause he had to attend his cousin’s debut

8PM – Hazel and I met up at school and went to Greenbelt to watch Benjamin Button. Due to the lack of taxi’s that wanted to take us there, we were late so we had to go to Glorietta to watch the movie (Glorietta is like 2 malls away from Greenbelt)

9PM – While waiting for the movie time which was 10:30, Hazel and I decided to eat our dinner first. We ate at Manggan (a, supposed to be, Kapampangan restaurant located at Glorietta 1). We had fun even though the food wasn’t quite enough (the looks of it. But truth be told, we were both full)

10ish PM – We went back to the movie house and bought Vinno a ticket cause he said he’d watch it with us after his part in the debut.

10:30PM – The movie finally started.

Around 1AM – We (Hazel, Vinno and I) were walking along Glorietta searching for taxi’s that can take us back to Taft Ave. (Even though I have a home near by, I wanted to go back to Taft because of my next list of things). Vinno didn’t stop by anymore cause it was already late. After dropping Hazel at her dorm, we told the taxi to go to where I was staying. After making sure I was there, Vinno and I parted.

At the end of the day, most of my friends texted me and greeted me a Happy Birthday. Even some left messages on my YM, which I forgot to change my status.. (I was saddened at one person’s greeting however)

Under Creativity, Events, Family, Life, Site, Thesis

I’ve been trying to fix the layout… I really have no idea how to fix it as of now cause I do have a lot on my mind.. Anyways, in case someone would know my solution, just leave a comment.

Here’s the problem: I placed a background on my CSS and I also have an inline CSS with the HTML coding. The background which is coded with the HTML is Alex’s picture (placed it fixed and non-repeating). Then the one on the CSS is the main background. Now, when the content of the site is less than what I have for my sidebar, Alex’s picture gets covered when I scroll down… How can I fix this? I did think that I can put in the background on the column of the content… But then the background of Alex’s picture and the coded background would not be the same (I don’t know what the problem is even though I did copy the right color code from photoshop itself). Help anyone?

Right now, I’m thinking I had enough ranting. So, how WAS my Christmas vacation, really? (besides all that ranting I mean) Well, over-all, I think it was good. Except for the fact that I wasn’t able to enjoy it much because I was working even while on vacation. All four of us were… *sigh* Oh well… We’ll just have to think, this is our last term for college and that we have to do our very best.

My gifts for Christmas… I wasn’t expecting most of them cause, I don’t know… I just didn’t expect them. Not that I didn’t like them cause I did. Here’s a list:

• From my Parents: Louis Vuitton (did I spell that right?) wallet (they say it’s original. hell, why would our parents even give us fake ones anyways) (I just found out that it was fake. We went to LV a while ago to have my wallet checked cause it already had a dent mark of the coin purse and totally ruined the wallet. They said it wasn’t their product. )
  
• Ate Pam, Kuya Eman and Alex (oldest sister, her husband, and their daughter): Photograph Composition book
• Ate Jay and Arnie (older sister and younger sister): Digital picture frame
• Tito Pancho (uncle): some sort of jewelry box from Tiffany & Co.
• Tita Pinky (aunt): Photo Album
• Tita Presy (aunt): ( God, I hope she forgives me… I forgot what she gave!)
• Tita Pey and Tito Arnel (aunt and her husband): a cute lamp which has the shape of a bottle
• Grandmother and Grandfather (father side): 500 pesos
• Grandmother (mother side): Miracle necklace? I think that’s what it was called. They said it came all the way from Jerusalem (she had my uncle/cousin [also a priest] buy it for her when he went their on a pilgrimage)
• Vinno: a blouse that I personally picked out from MANGO. (wished it was ZARA though. Kidding! )

After all that, I had my room fixed! Finally! My room is as fixed as ever! Although it looks really empty considering that I removed almost everything that didn’t belong to me which was in the room (which was A LOT) and had them placed in our storage room at the attic (yes, our attic is not the storage room because it is our family room. We have a separate small room inside the attic which is the storage room ). I had my SUPER old monitor removed from my computer table which sits inside my room without a computer to hold, I cleaned out my desk (which was then full of stuff that I never use, mostly my mom’s stuff cause she uses my desk to check her paper works), ALL the CDs that I had here that were PS1 games, I had them placed in the attic as well (which meant that my computer table is now empty. ) Basically, I was really happy after that day cause finally, my room was as clean as I can imagine it to be… My problem now is my bookshelf. I have LOTS of books here that I DO NOT use, and would like them out. Sadly, my mom wouldn’t let me put them in the storage room cause she said that it wasn’t there for books, and our bookshelves (where the books inside my room used to be before I took them out for college) are already full thanks to their 5 inched medical books. *sigh* So now, I am stuck with books that I do not even use. And not to mention, my bookshelf is only small! >.<

Ok, I think I have ranted way too much again. I have to go to work. I still have one set of misconception to do, a guide documentation and its interface to be done by, my target date, tomorrow. *sigh*

BY THE WAY, I have a new blog buddy! Nyuu~!

Under Events, Life, School

Hi guys! Christmas is in 3 days! And New Year is coming fast as well! The year is going to end and it’s ending WAY too fast for me to even cope up with all the stuff that I have to do for this vacation! T_T

So anyway, how was your year? My year, if you ask me, is full of disasters and blisters and wounds. LOL. I’ll list them all down….. (I’ll TRY to list them down accordingly but I can’t promise)

1. I found out that I had gastritis just last January 16 (my birthday )

2. I almost failed yet ANOTHER Math subject last third term (January – April term of school year 2007-2008)

3. I was late for AN HOUR at my office last summer

4. I tripped while on the way to the office therefore having a wound on my right knee (summer)

5. I wore the wrong pair of shoes during a site visit at the office therefore earning a wound

6. My laptop is running SO slow.. T_T I have to have Suppy reformatted….

7. My sister, Vinno and I went ice skating and I forgot to remove my anklet so the lock on the anklet went inside my skin earning another wound

8. Me and my mom got into an accident with a L300 van because the stupid driver did not put on the hand breaks when he parked and left the van so it reversed on us (a BMW car)

9. We went to a theme park once (my sister, Vinno and I) and went to this Snow World (but it was only the coldness we saw or felt. No snow. Just ice.) and when we got out, I found my hair VERY oily. So I had to buy Johnson’s Baby Shampoo just to get it off

10. I ALMOST failed my calculus (yes, again) last term if my professor wasn’t too considerate. I am VERY VERY thankful to him (though I wasn’t able to tell it to him personally cause I wasn’t the one who got my card)

11. If it wasn’t for my final exam grade and last departamental exam grade (which were both above perfect – hey, both first and second departamental exam were failures! Please leave me be by being a bit proud about it) I think I would fail my NETWORK course

12. My sister and I almost left our video camera on the bus when we were on our way home last week

13. I was playing with my niece’s jumprope the other night and I think I landed on the wrong foot so I sprained my right foot (but I’m still able to walk. It went away instantly) then after a few minutes, my left knee started to ache. Don’t know why

<EDIT> 14. Just after lunch, my sister asked me and my mom to accompany her to our little garden for her to use the Time Works Exercise machine that my dad gave my mom last year for Christmas. My niece suddenly saw her and asked me to carry her so that she can use it as well. Just when I crouched down and stood up with her in my arms, my sister twisted the machine just above my head earning myself a lump on the head, on the 24th. I even cursed (with my niece’s ear just beside my mouth). Luckily she didn’t quite hear it cause I just said it in a whisper. In case she heard the word F**K, I would have been VERY much dead by now. LOL

15. While my sister was curling my hair, she accidentally had the curler touch my skin, which is, mind you, VERY hot

16. My niece stepped on me with her boots while we were on our way home from mass before celebrating Christmas Eve….

17. Remember the sprain I got from the jump rope? Well, I landed on the wrong foot when I was on my way to Starbucks with my sisters and brother-in-law so, I sprained it, AGAIN

Hmmm… I think that’s about it….  I remember counting them down just after I got that lump on my head… But right now, I can’t remember them anymore. LOL </EDIT>

Anyways… Here’s a break down of my grades last term:

- CCSCAL2: College of Computer Studies Calculus (1.0)
- KASPIL2: Philippine History (2.5)
- LASARET: Lasallian Retreat (Passed)
- MOBLERN: Mobile Learning (4.0)
- NETWORK: Computer Networking (2.0)
- RELSFOR: Christian Social Teaching (3.0)
-  THESIS: (4.0)

In our school, if ever you haven’t noticed from the past grades I had been posting here, our highest grade is 4.0 and the lowest is 1.0, failure is 0.0 (yeah, looks like a shocked emoticon). For thesis, its just a 4.0 or 0.0 grade. So yeah… For MOBLERN, well, just as you do what the prof tells you to do, its easy to get a 4.0. The rest I earned through studying (except RELSFOR cause I barely studied there cause ALL exams were open notes)

I guess everyone was considerate of giving Christmas bonuses even to students.. So I am very grateful for my CCSCAL2 prof and for the professors of NETWORK for giving a VERY easy exam (all questions were taken from the previous exams)

Anyways, I have to run.. I still have to finish our thesis. Promise, once I finish everything for thesis, I will do my layout for the blog.. The layout is done.. Just the coding that needs to be fixed..

<EDIT> For those who would be interested to know (like Ahiru ), I study in the Philippines, at De La Salle University – Manila… The grades given for colleges in Manila are usually from 1.0 to 5.0, 1.0 being the highest.. But for our school, it’s the other way around… It goes from 1.0 to 4.0..

I’m off tomorrow.. We are going out of town so expect nothing from me for the next 4 – 5 days maybe… Hopefully my list of disasters won’t grow while I’m out.. It already grew while I’m at home, I don’t want it to grow anymore.. LOL
