Checkpoints

Filed under: Day Walker — Pipboy at 11:50 pm on Monday, September 25, 2006

Very busy the past week :D

Overnight Programming Marathons - programming has never been so fun when you’re working with a team. Never mind that we’re only two in the team. The point is - after several weeks of pure documentation, the Computer Science beasts in us have been released.

Eyeglasses - I had my eyeglass lenses changed because it was all scratched up and was starting to give me headaches. From my 50-75 setup, wooot!!, I nowonly have a 25-25 setup. Yes, single ladies and gentle madams, wearing an eyeglass for me is now more for decorative than corrective purposes. Astigmatism = Astig mata ko.

Check-up - went to Makati Med for some check-ups. Now I remember why I don’t like going to the hospital:

1) Long Waits. Luckily for me, 3-hour wait + iPod + notebook = lots of business ideas.

2) The most expensive 5-minute sections of my life always includes a doctor in the plot.

3) Blood tests. At first, I was eager to see what the beautiful nurse would do to extract blood from me. After seeing the needle, I decided otherwise, looked away and let the nurse surprise me. That didn’t help to lessen the pain.

Project Scouting - as my current batch of projects near their end, I’ve been scouting for additional projects left and right. Project hunting gives me the thrill that job hunting never did. This is a very refreshing activity for me.

Anime - currently watching Dragon Ball (young Goku) and Bleach. An epic and another in the making. Can’t have enough of that Powerful Rookie Guy + Training + Battle the Threats to Earth plot.
