I miss Manila. I wish I was back already. The Big City feels more like my home.

 I miss everything about it. Both the Day and Night life.

Whoozzaa wants a new Mac Daddy?!

August 24, 2009

 I was thinking about upgrading my Mac OS X to the new Snow Leopard. And I made up my mind. I will upgrade. The only problem is when. Haha! I think I won’t be one of those people who’ll get their hands on their newly upgraded Macs by the time Apple releases Snow Leopard.

But I think that upgrading would be a good investment since I would want and need my laptop to live until I graduate from college or for as long as it can survive. It’s slowly deteriorating with little cracks here and there plus four dead pixels on my screen. Which reminds me, I also need to get a replacement for the screen before they stop producing spare parts for the Black Macbook . I’m already expecting to spend cash on this upgrade. I think the OS costs $29. But I guess it’s not so bad. Now I’m wondering how much the screen replacement would cost me. Oh man.

Andromeda (my Macbook’s name :D ) is so high maintenance!

PS. I want to share this cute photo I stumbled upon while browsing through reviews about the Snow Leopard on the net. Click on the photo below to UPSIZE!

Humpty Dumpty

August 23, 2009

I have been doing a lot of thinking about my brother (the eldest) and how he landed on a career that is completely different from the degree he finished in college. He took Political Science in UP Baguio but now he’s a user interface design consultant.

I don’t even understand his job description. It’s too complex. All I know is that he started off as a graphic/web designer and now he has turned himself into a consultant for that type of work. 

This made me think about my career path. I’m taking up a Bachelor’s Degree in International Hospitality Management majoring in Hotel Administration. Yes I do enjoy school and the job. But I’m beginning to think about what the future holds for me. I’m only curious of how I would turn out to be if I had chosen a different course for college.

If I didn’t pursue Enderun, where would I be then? I’m not sure if I’d have the courage to pursue my love for art the same way my brother did.

I got a feeling that tonight’s gonna be a good night. That tonight’s gonna be a good good night.

August 16, 2009

 I thought I needed to update my blog because it’s been a long time since I last wrote something here. Sorry for the delay, things have been going on too fast for me lately. I could barely catch up with my own life. Last week was so hectic. I had to juggle work and organizing my first event. Obviously, it’s my first time to work on an event and be the head of everything. I thought it was an easy task but I guess I was wrong.

Work has been okay lately, I decided to quit attending sit in class for Statistics because I think it’s a waste of time. I can make use of that time for my event and be a lot more productive, and that’s what I’ve decided to do. Starting this week I really have to take everything seriously. I must delegate task with my team and make use of time management which is my weakness. I’m more of the procrastinator type as you can see, and so I get less work done because of my laziness. But I have to change now, I must change to make everything work out. 

Anyway, the highlight of my week is my trip to Manila. It’s been the most fun trip since I started my internship. I went to school on Friday. It felt good to be reunited with my friends. I feel like I’m reenergized! The whole time I was in school everyone kept coming in front of me to hug me because they haven’t seen me in ages! It was already annoying to keep explaining myself why I didn’t come to school for this semester and that I’m on internship. But I’m still glad to see everyone, even the freshmen. My reaction about them is.. they seem kind of different. Okay I’m not going to say anything anymore, I don’t think it’s wise to be judging them when I haven’t spent that much time in school to get to know any of them. Lets give them the benefit of the doubt. But yeah, all in all, being in school was super fun. Of course, my trip wouldn’t be complete without being reunited with my joyride group. 

I spent the night at Pat’s and as usual, she invited people to come over and drink. I think everyone was smashed that night. We got a keg so the beer kept flowing nonstop! I think the best part was when they played The Black Eyed Peas’ song I Got a Feeling and everyone was standing and kept singing along with the music. It was all too crazy and fun. When everyone was drunk already, they started to push people in the pool. And they love pushing me like the last time during Kevin’s salubong party. I think I was the second person to be pushed and the others just jumped in voluntarily. It was so fun actually. Everyone was so game. It was the perfect way to spend the night. 

Kelsey also slept over at Pat’s. First time that all three of us spent the night together. We slept at around 3 in the morning and we woke up at half past 8. We needed to wake up early to get ready for our brunch at Salcedo. Which was also super duper fun. It was just fun to be reunited with them. Joey was also with us for brunch. The three of them are my closest friends and they’re super awesome. Too bad Toby wasn’t able to make it. I think he went to Fiama the night before after he left Pat’s. We ate Paella, Dimsum, Japanese Pancakes, and drank Mango juice. I spent a lot that day but it sort of didn’t matter because I had fun anyway.  

After brunch we went back to Pat’s and hung out for a while. Kelsey left early though, that was sad. I went home at 3 in the afternoon. Long drive again but I slept the whole time in the bus because I was too exhausted. It’s the best weekend for me so far. I want to do it again next time. Hopefully when I get back before second semester starts.

  Good times with friends are the best memories a person could ever have.
