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! 
The past week…
Posted on May 21, 2008
Hey there! I’ve been away for exactly a week due to server problems… But, obviously, the server is now fine..
So, what had I been up to the past week… Well, OJT is.. Well… Still boring… School… It’s starting next week… Then I just accepted to be VP - Communications for our batch… I just thought that since I am already in the spamming business for the next year due to Moomedia, might as well do it for the batch…
Websites… I had been way too late in updating my website, namely Tomoeda… And in launching our website (in collaboration with my two sisters)… Although, I recently just finished (just minutes ago) my sister’s blog… Visit it! click click click!!
Food trip! I’ve been cooking the past days… Last Sunday I made crep batter and crep itself… Then just last night, I was so bored since my oldest sister isn’t around, as well as her husband (for short I had the entire condo for myself *evil laugh*) And I bought pork chops last Sunday as well so I decided to try something… I tried cooking my favorite recipe for pork chops… Pork steak… I found a recipe online and followed as it said.
I had the pork steak for lunch a while ago… And I was SO satisfied with the outcome… Even last night, I was so tempted to eat since it smelled SO good! But no, I pulled myself together and didn’t eat in the end…
You guys might want to try it… The recipe can be found at Pinoy Cook: Filipino Food and Asian Cooking
You might want to try to put in the soy sauce and the garlic you used for marination after the pork had been cooked for a little soup. I love it that way…
This is great, especially if you would like to try something new for dinner… Or maybe for lunch… This is one of the Filipino foods that I’d love to learn how to cook… Next stop is Adobo…
As for the crep, I’ll link the recipe next time… 
Insanity
Posted on May 14, 2008
I am officially going to be insane one of these days. Work had been busy yesterday, fine… Although I had received an email from Doc Lloyd (he’s the founder of our specialization. he’s a good professor… but a bit scary at that) last night saying that he needs to visit us in our OJT site ASAP.
What am I supposed to when he suddenly comes out of the blue?? I usually don’t do anything, just stare at the computer and do some internet surfing… What if he comes and I’m not doing anything?! This is driving me insane!!! What if because of that, I might not pass this OJT..?! (umm.. is that possible…? Lasallians out there..?)
Oh, and as for those who might think that I am also insane for putting my family third on my priorities… It’s because I live away from my family (particularly my parents) and so they won’t need much of my attention… Besides, it was them who always told me to put my studies first in my priorities before anything else, and thus the priorities list.
Gad I’m still so sleepy! It was fortunate that I woke up early enough for work or else I would have been late once again… And since I will not be doing anything tonight, I will finish onee-chan’s blog! *determined* I promised her that anyways… I just finished the layout last night and the next thing to do would be to fix the images needed for wordpress coding…. Then lastly, put it up on wordpress (of course setting it up)
I am also up to another project… Since I missed video editing so much, I am currently editing a video… You’ll have to wait and see.. I promise to upload it in YouTube and put it here as well… ALSO, I am planning on revamping the layout of my other website project (even though it hasn’t been launched yet… ^^;) I already thought of the layout… All I need to do now is to really create the layout in photoshop then to wordpress… I’ll try to manage our time to be able to launch the site before Christmas… For the mean time, it’s online but not being touched. I don’t know if anyone had already seen it but I ain’t letting anyone see it until the launch… Anyone that doesn’t accidentally click on the page somewhere in the internet, like from google… 
Bored at work
Posted on May 7, 2008
Hmm… I haven’t blogged for a few days… Can’t say that I’ve been busy cause I’m not and I can’t say that I haven’t been bored in OJT cause I am. It’s been 2 weeks since I started my training here and I can’t say that I haven’t really done anything cause I have. We just submitted 4 stuff yesterday.
And right now, I was late, but then again, it’s been an hour that I’m here and I haven’t done anything yet… So I went to my friendster account and found a few meme’s! Actually, only one is a meme.. The other I just found cute..
The first I will be putting will be the meme that I found… Then the next will the thing that I found cute and, I think, is true!
It’s way too long so I’ll put it under a “more” tab…

sad and down
Posted on April 29, 2008
He’s wasting his time if you ask me. Instead of applying and getting things over with with this practicum (on the job training), he sits there, complaining most of the time… Or if not, doing moo stuff. Or if not, playing online games. The type of person who will achieve a goal, but the goal is very far away. Sad to say, I don’t like that type of person. I like a person who is motivated to achieve their goals early in life. Motivated enough to work hard for himself or herself for his family most especially their situation. I promised myself that I will try to at least change how he thinks about money and life. And that he has to SAVE money. Sadly, I failed to do that… And I can’t seem to do it. Because of him. Because of his attitude. Because of his way of thinking.
It’s my second day of on the job training… And I do find it a bit boring but fun, most especially with the people around me. They are just so welcoming and really fun to be with, especially that they joke most of the time…
I was hoping I could motivate him to work with his OJT as well during my first day at work since I was happy I decided to apply and work there. Unfortunately, it was only until his head… That motivation never went to his body to actually move and do something about it. He never did.
And I’m REALLY sad today, despite the fact that I should be happy. I feel really down today except for the fact that I’m really tired and sleepy. I just don’t know what to do anymore. Haven’t I tried hard enough to talk him into applying…? I’ve been pushing and pushing him to apply to jobs. Nothing happened.
Made a mistake…? I don’t know. Most of the time I think I didn’t. Although there are times I think I did. I DON’T KNOW! I don’t know anymore… I don’t want to think anymore…
