Aloha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hehehe, apologies for the few but loyal readers of my blog. I haven’t been updating my blog because I’ve been *busy* with life - where I define my life as Work, Exercise and Recreation.

Work

• Wrapping up my project with GMA7 (Yes, i’m finishing up their Table Of Contents)
• Negotiating for some school’s Chemistry Inventory System pricing (I hope our proposed budget pushes through)
• Negotiating for another school’s digital yearbook (System Design is complete, awaiting go-signal for implementation)
• Working on three web portals (one’s a done deal, another’s a scope creep and the last one’s being negotiated)
• Gathering requirements for the formal incorporation of my quasi-company (unemployed? do as i do! employ yourself!!!)

Exercise

• I’ve been faithful to Moro, attending an average of 5 days a week
• I still weigh the same, but I feel lighter and better. been cursing fewer morons on the road who don’t know how to drive
• My daily goal is to burn 1200 calories per session while I eat 800-1000 calories worth of food everyday

Recreation

• Been hooked up to lots of anime marathons lately ~ basilisk, samurai 7, samurai deeper kyo, dragon ball…
• Listening to songs and reliving the memories behind them. Some of them are old … some of them new.
• Resurrected Grunt (1Ghz AMD Athlon, 640Mb Ram) for file-serving and retro-gaming purposes. Final Fantasy 7! Woot!

Outlook

Outlook is good in life. However, I’m getting bored with having only a few projects. I almost considered going for a full-time job. As much as I wanted one, God has His own plans for me. On the day of my interview at UC and knivre fpubbyf [I’m sorry, Caesar likes writing company names that way], I :

• was held up by an MMDA officer for swerving along Edsa
• had to argue with the guards to let me park within the campus of my first interview place ~ there was no parking space outside the campus
• had to fill up forms that I *so* love to do
• had to answer a personality test. questions were conducted in a boolean manner and were repeated and rephrased over and over to check the consistency of your answers and personality. I also *love* these tests.
• ran out of parking space at galleria. a level of the basement parking was converted into a function hall for the day
• i couldn’t find the building where i had to take an interview for UC, i got redirected twice ~ walked 2kms in full battle gear of long sleeves, black pants and leather shoes
• the original interviewer at UC didn’t arrive
• waited for an hour and a half to find out. though UC was kind enough to have a replacement interviewer
• replacement interviewer was hot, oh so distractingly hot. did i say she was hot? well, she was hot
• i was supposed to end my day at the gym when i forgot to stuff a shirt in my trusty gym. Since I couldn’t possibly work out topless, I skipped gym for that day

Moral of the story?

There is no such thing as security.

I’d like to explain and connect the dots between all the bullet points I listed, but I trust in my reader’s ability to reflect and think critically. Share your thoughts. I’d appreciate them.
