Under Events, Family, Work

Hi! I’m back. I’ve been gone for almost a month now and a lot of things had happened. First thing is my grandfather who passed away (thank you to those who commented and said that his version of the Swan Song was great). After that, we’ve had a rough road in the family… My sister had an accident I think that was the week after his burial.. The wheel of a truck suddenly slipped out of the truck itself and crashed into my sister’s car. Luckily she was not hurt or anything. Not even the wind shield was touched. So, yeah… Lolo (my grandfather) had been watching over us.

BTW, I edited the Swan Song. I had a few errors upon trying to read my lolo’s handwriting… I just fixed it before typing this entry.

After that, our van came next. It had been showing its defects since last year but they couldn’t see the problem here so my dad had to bring it to the city to have it fixed. And it was. And then just today when my dad was to get the van from Chrysler, our Honda Accord 1996 edition was again in an accident. Someone hit them at the bumper at the back while they were on their way to our condo. Luckily, again, everyone is safe.

So much had happened the past month… Heartbreaking, and also pocket breaking (monetary issues) since everything goes out and only a bit comes in… But, I guess it’s okay… It’s not like this happens every month for every year. Maybe everything just fell into place at the same time…

Enough with the sad things. I’ve been job hunting since June and only this week had I been called by 4 companies already (including the one that just called me today). Yesterday I had 3 job interviews and I will have another one on Friday. I’m not sure on where to go. Lol. I also have another offer coming from the US but this offer will be home based… I’m not yet sure if I can take on that offer because I don’t work as well as much as I would if I knew someone is watching over me. So, yeah… I’m still giving it a thought though. It is an opportunity for me… A step to the US I guess.

Give me your thoughts about the US offer.

Under Family, Geeky Girl, Life, Vacation, Work

It’s May 28th here and it is nearing the end of summer… For most people anyways. Our school had started it’s first term last Monday (May 25). It usual starts early because we are under the Trimester system, so yeah. Hehe.

So, what had I been up to the past how many weeks that I haven’t been blogging… Well for one thing, I have achieved another wish that I wanted.. I finished driving school I think about 2 to 3 weeks ago and just last week, I got my driving license! But, the problem there is, I have no car to use. My parents won’t have me drive an automatic car just yet. They want me to start off with a manual car. The problem there is, all our manual cars are with my two sisters who are both working in the city… So no manual car for me. My mom did say that I would borrow my grandfather’s old car, the Volkswagen Beetle (they had it fixed a few years ago so yes, it is still functional). But, HELLO. The car is YEARS older than me, probably older than my oldest sister. I MIGHT have a hard time driving that thing compared to having a hard time driving our Kia Pride CD-5

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 Boredom, Work

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!

Under Boredom, Food Trip, Moomedia, School, Site, Work

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…
