Fair - Fest

"when the world pushes you down to your knees,
you are in the perfect position to pray."

i don't know who said this one but it sounds nice. i just wanted to share.

Fairspectives
I went to UP Fair last saturday. F and i went there with Dianne and her elementary classmates. First time. It was fun. Definitely better than La Salle's. I bought a cool toy there. it's a battery operated light-stick that flickers with different colors at a very high frequency. Pwe! Basta it's a cool toy. Anyway, the fair was great... and long. we left the fair at around 4:30 in the morning.

Cheng and Gemma's Food Fest
There was some sort of food fest yesterday. Cheng treated us to lunch at Gerry's -- that made us full. Then, at 3pm, we ordered a yellow cab pizza, a bunch of aling nene's barbeque, 2 cans of ice cream and a big tray of baked mac for Cheng and Gemma's birthday -- that made us even fuller. Ugh! my stomach was so heavy after that.


just some of the food we ate yesterday.

ranting for training

can i just rant for a while? last night, i felt stupid talking to the architecture specialist (AS) about my deliverables. it turns out that the template (which i got from the repository) and the PL/SQL script (that i made) had been poorly designed. aarrgghh!!! i hate this! how do you expect me to create a good design when the only training i had was the almost useless and definitely brain-frying PL/SQL computer based training (CBT). i almost had a seizure taking up those CBT's. damn it, i'm learning things the hard way around here. i'm just angry because i don't want to feel sad, sad because i could have done better if i had proper training. sad because i could have met their expectations. i could have even surpassed them. i just wish... oh what the heck! wishing won't do me any good.

oh well, that's enough ranting for today. until next time!

ciao!

the old me

i just read my old blog. all i can say is:

what the hell happened to me?! what the fuck?!

there. i said it. i'm so disappointed on what i had done with my life. what have i become? i'm not sure, actually, but i feel so pathetic.

i knew it. i knew it all along, but its only now that its really sinking in. i have to do something about this.

if you want to know who i was 3 years ago, just go read my old blog, http://alphavictor.easyjournal.com. please read it in chronological order.

dementia or hypochondriasis

"today is the the first day of the rest of your life." - some witty person

i just realized that my forgetfulness may be a sign of dementia. demented and paranoid is a bad combination, me thinks. then again, i maybe over-reacting and that is just my hypochondriasis kicking in. lol

Glossary of Terms:
dementia: A mental disorder characterized by a disintegration of personality, confusion, disorientation, decreased intelligence, and difficulty controlling memory, judgment, and impulses
paranoia: Irrational distrust of others, delusions of persecution, often strenuously defended with apparent logic and reason
hypochondria: A disorder involving having a constant fear of illness and a preoccupation with one's health

valentine's

happy valentine's day! i'm wearing red today because i am so happy to that i'm in a very good relationship right now. this is F and I's 2nd valentine's together and we are still stronger than ever. i don't want to be too mushy on this entry so i'll stop right here.

green belt, red box

F and I went to greenbelt last saturday with nelson, jeng, and dianne. it was jeng's 23rd birthday. she treated us to red box. unfortunately, nelson had to leave before we could eat because he had to go attend some thesis meeting in QC. but even if it was just the four of us, we still had a great time. our singing was bad but the food was good, the company was good and we had fun. i wish i could have more of those.

idle

i have just run out of work.

it's depressing to be idle.

ash wed

it's ash wednesday today. i've seen a lot of people with ashes on their forehead. sarah and gemma is at the podium right now, attending mass. it's supposed to be a reminder to us that we came from ashes and will return to asshes in time. come to think of it, shouldn't we be using dirt instead of ash? and then, we'll have to call it dirt wednesday. we're suppose to abstain from eating meat. hmm... i think i shouldn't have eaten bacon for breakfast and sisig for lunch.

religion is such a bad topic.

"But now I don't understand why I'm feeling so bad now when I know it was my idea. I could've just denied the truth and lied. But why am I the only one standing stranded on the same ground?" -Kitchie Nadal, "Same Ground"

work log

i'm almost done with all my detail designs. only one left. my manager is busy looking for work that she could last me the rest of the week. soon enough, i would be coding the designs. i hope i would do better this time.

i'm getting the hang of being involved in a project. i learn something new from time to time. the peer review comments becomes lesser and lesser for every design that i do. that is good but somehow, its not enough. what i really want is training. vendor training would be nice (i've been wanting this ever since i signed my contract) but in house training would do.

tomorrow is wednesday, team breakfast day. assigned for tomorrow is donna, mark and me. hmm... outbox... yummy!

today is arfel's birthday. he's on VL (virthday leave) today. too bad i can't have a VL on my birthday... lol

we might go to powerbowl on feb 24. we might also go to puerto galera this april. i could only hope so. =)
