Because I thought it’s about time (1 Comment)
Guys in a bathtub O_o
I still have a number of things to do, but I thought it’s about time I blog about what’s been going on with me lately. I still haven’t stopped my habit of not blogging for so long and suddenly making a long-as-a-novel post to bore the heck out of you guys. :/ Sorry!
Anyway, here goes…
My thesis groupmates (except Kristal) stayed for a night last Thursday. We were able to finish up to the methodology part. We wouldn’t have done until that if I hadn’t kept them from playing billiards. ^^; I told them they could play as long as we get the objectives and methodology done. Since we were all sleepy, none of us got to play. Haha~ XD Sylvan and my dad emailed me the references and other stuff to add to our proposal. The deadline’s tomorrow. Fuck, and I thought I only need to do 2 reports today. That makes two out of three reports due tomorrow. Ugh~ XP
I’m finally done with OJT last week. :3 Yay! I’m glad Wally attended with me. At least I have less to worry about. I was so pressured that morning because of him. I think he woke up on the time I called him up. That was about 8AM. Our meeting time was 9AM. The engineer was pissed off. He told me I should leave Wally because he doesn’t seem interested with the OJT while I, on the other hand, was working my ass off. When we arrived to our meeting place, he gave him a light sermon about his being tardy. I couldn’t defend him anymore. The engineer’s right anyways.
He should show a bit of consideration. The engineer’s got work to do too. We’re not even paying him to take charge of us.Our travel time to the site was longer than our inspection. *sweatdrop* We took a couple of cool pictures which I might be posting tonight or after I’m done with the school reports.
A friend of Mac and Reyton wants to join our band. Her name’s Mimi. Jackie’s still our vocalist though. I will let just Mimi in the band because it’s nice to have 2 female vocalists. X3 For the meantime, since Jackie’s still unavailable, she’ll be singing solo. We had a li’l jamming last Saturday, so we were able to hear her singing skills. She sounds like Burigs. O_O She even likes the songs Burigs likes. Whoa~ Haha~ ^^; She’s not a big reggae or ska fan, so our songs are kind of new to her. She needs to be familiar with our playlist before she starts practicing with the band. I hope EJ and the trombone player will be available next week

The beer, inside my kikay kit… And more Shounen Onmyouji please! ;_; (0 Comments)
Yoroshiku’s kind of taking their time subbing Shounen Onmyouji. I just finished watching episode 15 which is the latest subbed episode from the group. :/ I want more. Mokkun is way cute. If you haven’t seen Shounen Onmyouji yet. You SHOULD while we wait for Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion. *lol*
I played FFXII earlier. I’m already in Feywood. My characters seem more powerful than the last time I tried to pass through Feywood. XD; The foes are dead in 2 strikes? Haha~ Wth.

Site updates and some rl stuff (0 Comments)
^_^ I’ve been fixing my site lately — upgraded WP to 2.1.3, added movie ratings plugin, removed UTW and installed Simple Tagging Plugin instead, added XFN link, and changed the theme a bit. I hope the site looks good in all resolutions. I only doubt this will look good for those who still use Internet Explorer. I also had Marmalade Boy S up again. It’s an old site of mine that I didn’t know became non-existent because T35.com deleted all my files. I uploaded the files here in my domain because it’s a waste to leave it like that. I spent many hours on it. *gah* I was still on dial-up back then! So yeah… URL is still the same. Hopefully people will still visit the site. The site’s target will be the new manga fans. ^_^ Since I’m done with this site (and even uploading those Funfax Horror scans for the heck of it), I can play FFXII again! Yay!
I was supposed to finish those site updates by Friday if it weren’t for that damn Globe DSL modem. ~_~ My parents wanted me to connect the modem to the router since we’re having the PLDT DSL disconnected this Tuesday. The connection was uber easy, yet we couldn’t go online! WTF. I did everything I could with my knowledge. Everything I knew still failed. So I had to ask help from BJ. Haha~ Lifesaver! After 2 or 3 hours, we finally had it fixed. I thought of playing after that, but decided to just update the site and watch Shounen Onmyouji. (Guren is ♥) Shounen Onmyouji’s been keeping me up til 6AM. ^^; I got more episodes that I’ll probably watch later.How was everyone’s Holy Week? I was spent the Holy Week at home. My family and I believes that the Holy Week shouldn’t be spent for having fun. Why have fun when the Holy Week is the time when Christ suffered and died for us? Yet again, not everyone gets a long break such as the Holy Week especially for most of the working force. Thus, these people makes (or is it make? I fail at grammar *boo*) the Holy Week their OUTING week. ^^;;; Anyway, HAPPY EASTER! We had mass last night with Tita Sandra. She went over because she had to bake her hemin bread. I think my parents invited her to join us. She was Maru’s proxy. *lol* Maru will be home in a few days. I wonder if he was able to get me my requests. *tee-hee* I hope he’s not uber depressed. My parents think he is. He hasn’t been keeping in touch and when he does, his replies are mostly one-liners. o_O
Mac and I watched 300 last Tuesday. We’re lucky Greenbelt 3 cinema was still showing it because we went first to Glorietta 4 and they’re not showing 300 anymore. Awesome movie. Awesome graphics. I love all the fighting scenes. ^_^ Ironic how I’ve lately been into guys with great bodies then I watch this movie with more beefy men. Gyahahahaha~ *drools* I’m going to save this post from those of almost-naked Leandro or Cristiano pictures.
Lately, Phoebe and I have been going out at night having short coffee breaks. Tsimisan (gossiping) time actually. ^^ We’re not actually sharing gossips, but news about acquaintances or friends we haven’t seen in a very long time. She’s got some free time now because her boyfriend’s busy with his work. XD Jhan’s still in a kind of house arrest. I also heard of the bad news with her pre-board exam results. I’m sure with a bit more review and studying, she’ll be able to top the actual board exam. ^_^ (Jhan, do update your VOX! I miss you. ^^) I miss my girls. ^_^
You know, there was a girl in Starbucks Walter Mart and I saw her butt crack. WTH. That was disgusting. When I was still in Phoebe’s car, I already saw her. Her back was facing the me and everyone else. If she had a sexy, white ass, I wouldn’t mind because you all know (by now) that I (with my bandmates) like to look or search for pretty ladies. Her blouse was short to cover her back. Couldn’t she feel the wind against her butt or back? Geez~
Alright, I think I’m feeling tipsy. The Carlsberg Chill is yummy. Haha~ XD I should go play FFXII now. :sing:

Maru’s on his way to US! (0 Comments)
Ambien wakes up the brain damaged
Since vacation started, I felt FREE!
There will be no assignments or projects to worry about for the meantime. I plan to make this a productive vacation — BY PLAYING FFXII NONSTOP! XDDD I’m serious. I had this FFXII withdrawal. Last term, I tried to play the game whenever I get free time. But my free time was always spent on band practices. It’s for the bands (my dad’s and K. Wasabi), I know. I just miss playing. ~_~ Playing games is a good way for me to relieve stress from school. You can’t imagine how I almost spent many sleepless nights because of Plumbing workouts and assignments. I wished for all those to be over, so I could play. I emo-d because of FFXII. *rofl* Anyway, there isn’t much progress on my game. I’ve been hunting and leveling-up. Most of my characters are level 41. Once I reach level 42 or 43 (depends on when I start to get bored), I’ll start my travel to Archades. I’m already in Phon Coast. Almost near to Archades. But I’m transporting to other places just for the hunts. ^^ I get good items when I hunt. I won’t have to spend much money for items that way. ^_^Gawd, the summer heat will kill me. ~_~ If I can only transfer my pc out of my room, I would. Only that would be too much hassle. I’ve been staying home; afraid that the sun will scorch my skin. XD Phoebe and I met up last week. I think that was last week. We just had coffee in Starbucks Walter Mart, talked about our friends, love life, etc. etc. ^_^ And we also smoked. Hooray for LUNG CANCER! XDDD J/k! I joined a forum (forum name won’t be disclosed here) and there was someone who posted about wanting people to smoke in a smoking area/room. That’s not a bad idea. Some bars/restaurants here in Makati have implemented that. But what I didn’t like about what he said after was that he wanted all the smokers to die in those smoking areas/rooms. I’m not going to say this in defense for the smokers or because I’m a smoker. Saying you want them to die is already a sin. That’s what I recall learning from my former catholic school. If they didn’t mean you any harm, you have NO RIGHT to say that. Even though you say that because smoking is harmful to their health, THAT IS THEIR CHOICE. They know that. They know the consequence. LET THEM BE. You can’t curse these people if you want them to respect you (want them to smoke in the right place, etc.). Respect them if you want respect back. People will probably tell me that every person has the right to say what they want. You forget, there’s a limit to the things you can say.
Our school’s enrollment was last week, but I didn’t go. I’m too lazy and I bet there aren’t subjects open for EnSE students. As usual, we would have to request for opening of these damn subjects. I only got to reserve a slot for OJT. I think there’s only 6 students (including me) who reserved. I heard that the OJT from batch 2003 is different. That could be the reason for the limited students.
I’m so not looking forward to school.Maru left this morning for his month-long vacation in the US and Canada (he’s visiting his GIRLFRIEND!). ^_^ Although I’m glad he’s going to see his girlfriend after so many months, I’m going to miss our HYD2 & Code Geass nights. XD We were able to watch the former’s last episode last Tuesday. We didn’t wait for SARS’s subs because he wanted to watch it before he leaves. I did get the SARS’ version just for consistency. ^_^ (I updated my trade & distro site, btw.)

FFXII for DS and You Raise Me Up for RxJ (2 Comments)
I’m torn between a DS and a PSP. XD The reason for wanting a DS is this. *lol* You can some screenshots here. It’s not a sequel to the FFXII PS2 game, but it’s intended for new audience. The game’s art doesn’t look as good as the PS2 game with the almost-similar title. I still want to play it because it’s just FF. *lol* I don’t have a DS though. Maru and I should probably sell our old GBs here to be able to buy a DS. Then when he goes to US or Canada, he’ll buy the PSP. XD
Our parents will freak out when the CC bill arrives.
This school term’s finally over! YES!
I miss blogging and checking my Google Reader. In just a matter of days, I already have a lot of unread feeds. X_X I’ll try to catch up soon. I missed some entries with my LJ flist too. Aww~ But there’s nothing I can do about that. I don’t think visiting every LJ of my friends is a wise thing to do. Wednesday til Thursday morning, Maru and I were up doing his design. I made him promise to help me with my plumbing layouts that was due yesterday. He ended up not helping me. SHIT. I got pissed, but I didn’t have time for that. Mac helped me though with the drainage diagram. That was already a big help because it takes a long time to do that. I worked til 6AM, Friday morning. I didn’t mean to sleep, but I was getting lightheaded. I set up the Winamp alarm by 7:30AM. Stupid Winamp of mine fucked up and didn’t alarm. I woke up by 11:30AM when our maid told me it was time for lunch. That’s when I started panicking. I got to pass that by 1:30 and I also have 3 reports to do. I got pissed more and more at my brother. I don’t know how many times he broke promises like that. I still help him with his projects even though I don’t want to because, one, I care that much and, second, my parents will get mad at me if I don’t help him. That kid takes advantage of me a lot. *shakes head* 
From moetron, the opening of the Romeo x Juliet anime is You Raise Me Up. It will be sung by Lena Park. (Wow, a Korean artist again after BoA.) You can hear a sample in the Romeo x Juliet official site. I don’t use normal computer speakers, so it’s hard for me to hear clearly whether the song is in Korean or Japanese. You know, I’m not that pleased with the anime’s character art. XP I wish it was done by Clamp, so it would look Code Geass-ish. *lol* Also, I want them to use a different OP theme. ~_~ I think I’ve heard enough of You Raise Me Up. It wouldn’t be so bad if they did a remake instead of just changing the language.
Man, I’m so hungry! ~_~

Hard to concentrate when you’re in pain (1 Comment)
People should move to VOX. Photo and video uploading, making collections, and posting are so easy. ^^ I wish sharing audio from there is the same as Multiply’s. I’m liking their site yet I’m having troubles viewing posts from groups. Unless someone clears me on this, but I find it such a task to visit every group to read new posts. ~_~ The VOX groups feature is equivalent to LJ’s communities, only there is no option to add it to your neighbors (in LJ, you can add community posts to your friends page). The best VOX group I’ve seen so far is the Bento group. ^_^ Because most of the food pics there look so delish, I went as far as adding the group to my Google Reader. XD It’s the only solution I could come up with, so I wouldn’t have to visit the group’s VOX page all the time. It’s actually better than reading from your neighbors or friends pages. VOX’s neighbors is a bit better than LJ’s friends page. It’s got RSS feeds! RSS makes net life easy. ^_~
VOX is great. I’m liking it better than LJ or my domain blog. The only downside is not being able to make your own layout. Embedding seems impossible too. I’ll probably make a comparison on VOX and LJ next time. Just to make people move from everywhere else to there. *lol* J/k!
Hate Globe’s UNLITXT? Sign the online petition. I didn’t sign there. I think it’s asking for the impossible. ~_~ Seems like SUN’s gotten more customers again. Texting is becoming a pain once more. When will SUN’s quality of service improve?
Over the weekend, I had a little break from the internet. I only left my PC on to download. ^^ I played FFXII, had practice w/ my dad, and did the floor plan layout with drainage pipe system. I already had 2 almost-sleepless nights for Plumbing assignments. XD My bp will never ever normalize. Maybe. *lol* I’m already level 34 in FFXII. I’m desperate in making my characters stronger before I go to Archades. Finding out what Reyton’s character’s levels are got me motivated. His are already level 75. I plan on going to Archades when all my characters are almost level 50. XD I’ll finish all the hunts for the meantime. I would have played longer last night if it weren’t for my painful teeth and lower left gum (where the wisdom tooth used to be) and stomach cramps. All my teeth hurts because of the Damon braces. This is the second time I’m having braces, so no need to tell me that the pain’s normal. ~_~ I know that. XP I got braces again because my mom wants to have my lower teeth aligned properly. When the lower wisdom teeth came out, they misaligned the front lower teeth. Then she also wants to have my deep bite fixed. Eileen, Tita Sandra’s bestfriend, put the braces on my teeth. It feels weird having somebody else do mine. I’m so used with my mom. I wish this Damon braces wouldn’t be so thick. My previous braces, although cheaper, was thinner. You wouldn’t be bothered by all the metal in your mouth. But this… Damn… ~_~ If it’s true that results wil be seen in 2 weeks, then this is worth it. I still need to wear the braces up to a year maybe.
Megs, thanks for informing me about HYD2 episode 7. I downloaded it as soon as you told me. XD I added your site in my Google Reader. Hehe~
Rozeh? Your feed is empty. First time I’ve seen an empty feed. ^^;;;
