Stranded

2009-09-27T06:31:28Z

Well you might have heard about it from other Filipinos already

But our country experience a terrible flood yesterday (The 26th) So bad.. that places that are not really flooded got flooded..and not just any flood.. extreme kind oAo I tell you its so bad.. i spent more than 24 hours in our office..with nothing more than crackers and some bread till the morning... i finally am able to leave the place @ around 11am of the 27th oAo;;

So let me describe our ordeal.. atleast in my point of views

If i wasnt obliged to go to work the whole day i would have stayed home... You know.. on Saturdays i can go half days.. unfortunately since my mom left a week earlier.. i wanted to stay on her last day...that and i have to go back to the doctor... so whole day is obligatory...

So there i was ..arriving to work almost 9am..late cause of raining... but i didnt expect itd be really bad... befiore lunch time... the flood started rising oAo... well we didnt pay attention to it much at first since the place doesnt flood much non at all.. then we started listening to the news...through live stream on the internet... a village near my work place is flooded badly already oAo

Then the internet died oAo just a little after listening to news oAo;;; We tried calling the DSL company.. but.. their line is cut off... corporate support.. oAo... i managed to find news via my phone's radio... so much bad news.. then my siblings started textinfg me.. and told me outside our house the flood is waiste level..and inside our house is knee deep oAo.. then more bad news came... we found out my Office mates house is completly submerged by around 3 pm... I will post a video of the flood when i could.. I left the company cam at the office...Net didnt come back... some of the cell sites are down... at my work place.. only Smart Telecoms (im on smart) works.. the rest has no signal whatsoever. by 5 it was already so dark outside.. and the flood has risen so high... we decided to move into the Realty's main office (im at the marketing department and our office is on the ground...the realty is on the third floor)

We have no toilet in our office and we decided since the flood is rising so fast and we have no idea how high it will go up we decided to go evacuate ourselves before its too late.. we found out alot of people were stranded inside

I tell you.. the mall started smelling so bad cause of all off the mixed smells.. sweat... flood...etc...
We are slightly more comfortable than the other "refugees" that got stranded in the mall (its Sta Lucia East Grand Mall BTW) most of them slept on the floor... on the stairs.. we took the students we pick up outside our office earlier.. since it was really raining so bad and the students were starnded we gave them shelter inside our office and some coffee... when we went up we brought them along with us so they were spared from sleeping on the floor cause we have couches over there.. i manage to sleep for a few hours.. but my office mates couldnt...by 7pm the basement area were the groceries and the furniture where flooded... i knew it would be flooded since the last time i used the basement bathroom i could see flood water on the walls oAo; we managed to get some news.. since my office mate is worried about her family.. i told you.. their house is submerged.. and she has a 4 year old son with his grandmother and a sickly brother. They managed to go up a third floor of the neighbors.. they couldnt go to an evacuation center.. on of my office mates who wasnt able to go to the office due to the flooding (flooding came earlier to them) was already in the evacuation centers before lunch.. it was horrible as i remember she had a similar experience when she was still pregnant and now it happen again in an area she believed does not flood.

Some of the men in our office including our VP help some people outside cross since the flood was so harsh...only to find out later in the morning one of the people they rescued tried to cross again.. he was found dead across our street...

Whats worse.. when we thought we are safe inside from the flood... smoke started going in by 3am of the 27th... we found out there was a fire that erupted in front of the mall.. it smelt of burnt chemicals... luckily the smoke dint enter the mall that bad . because it might have suffocated everybody... but outside.. you can see its all white from smoke...

Oh by 12mn... the mall was running on generator and by morning all landlines where dead and yeah of course.. theres still no net ahahah *head desk* by 5am in the morning there where still flood ... and there was a nasty piece of traffic outside ... the students who we helped started saying goodbye and tried to go home albeit the flood... atleast there is no longer rain...

we waited till its about 11am when me and some of the staff decided to risk it and drive home using the company vehicle.. i had them drop me off at the train station... luckily it was now working...

it was slightly raining when i got home.. and i still is a bit... there are still some people left in our office.. i hope they can go home safely

Mommy and Check up

2009-09-19T07:56:03Z

My Mom left today after her 45 day vacation to go back to work in Qatar. Although i should be used to it by now, but I'm really sad. Its so different having a mom when you go home T__T I miss her already T__T
Its been so long that we have seen each other or were complete... its so annoying that she has to leave again. : (

Before my Mom left, we went to get a check up last night to a EENT Specialist in UDMC. Ugh so expensive T_T all the money i borrowed from the company is gone oAo; /sigh Good thing i managed to pay my bills before that happen oAo;;;

Ive been coughing AGAIN for 2 mos now.. prolly more than that oAo..its different this time.. since Its a kind of allergy... The doctor who examined me says its one of the worse cases he'd seen oAo /ugh.. though i suspect he is just scaring me.... >.>;;; I dunno... dun ask... they still deduce its something in my Office.. since.. well my coughs keep coming back when i go there oAo;; Cant do anything about it ...since.. I need to work oAo; The medicines are ... annoying to take and is so expensive... and I have to go back two more times for a treatment... Um, theyre suctioning my nose for the mucus.. /ugh i tell you...its not pleasant at all T__T And i dont like my doctor.. and its gonna be doubly annoying since my mom is not gonna be with me when i go back there /sigh

I'm sorry, im already at an age where you make your own family.. but I grew up without my mom most of the time.. so can you blame me if I really miss her?

Systems Analysis and Design

2009-09-18T01:37:16Z

Truth be told, My current occupation isnt what i studied... well somewhat... atleast lately its somewhat...

When I started there .. its definitely not what I studied

I applied as a Graphic Artist...basically because I needed work and I do know Photoshop and all ( I still owe my job to Jaimee :3 and sir Justin ) although i suspect what eventually lead me be finally accepted (since theyre ust thinking of hiring free lancers back then .... based on the thought otd be cheaper) is the fact that i'm a computer science major. They wanted to fire their IT person... he was caught ..well doing illegal acts.. lets not talk about that.. oAo so yeah im a perfect replacement ...I think oAo Im two in one... Ahahah although.. if I think about it..my course got nothing to do with being an IT... actually lets put it this way.. their definition of IT is this ... They fix anything with regards to tech... LOL... um fix computers.. fix fax machines.. fix speakers oAo..actually they expect me to fix cellphones too LOL i said.. no ahahah... isnt IT supposed to be focusing in Web stuffs...and networking.. well i dont have a problem with networking since i did have Cisco training... and I know html.. since Ive been making websites along time ago...but fixing computers got nothing to do with my course...

Im proud to declare everything i know about fixing computers is through my experience, my constant bantering to my tech at the time i dunno how to fix comps... the internet... and my work in DELL... oAO wow... i learned so much there..SERIOUSLY

I guess its cause i really want to learn...
I dont claim to know everything...infact i still want to study some more. Im even asking informatics regarding their courses and what they are teaching (only cause its the closest school where i work)

Anyway.. So suddenly.. Im finally going to do work that was actually thought to me (aside from networking..though i learned most networking stuffs in dell ahahah XD I love you dell...i hate your products but i love all the knowledge you gave me )

Im finally going to be doing Systems Analysis and Design

When I was studying...this was the most hated computer major.. i never hated it though... I hated OJT days though ahahahah XD

I cant help it oAo im a nerd.. a failure of a nerd though ...since im actually not very technical ( dont ask me whats the best chipset and crap... i dunno ahahah...i knew them before... but i stop paying attention..graphics card too.. although i could understand specs oAo;; )

ANYWAYS... im going to be doing a study on My present company's system...and im going to be designing a program based on the study im going to do. wow...I expect to do a formal presentation as well

I havent been doing this in a long time but im pretty excited..
I really love coding! seriously! oAo;
Im also redoing the website for the sister company of...my company... its almost done.. I just stopped...since...i have to do a rush design job for our booth in Gateway cubao XD weeee :3 I really dun want to rush it though oAo... my designs will be fugly T__T i sure hope they like it

anyway after this ill prolly be starting my study.. this weekend... since im skipping work on saturday ...My mom is going back abroad to work T_T..im gonna be sad again... ill prolly start working on it then.. well hopefully.. i did intend to spend time with mom ;_;
Sunday.. meet up with cosplay people :3
Monday.. i planned to do something else.. but ill prolly do my work ...definitely oAo (unless i need to go to the doctors lol )

WAIT do you guys know what Systems Analysis and Design is? aside from the fact we call it SAD cause its very sad LOLOL
Basically you study how a company works.. their "system" what you do is design a more efficient System for them. A company's system usually consist of inputting items... therefore making Form based programs... Thats what my school focused on... which im actually very annoyed at since.. comp sci should have more programming subjects.. and not just form making subjects *pout*

well atleast its going to come in handy now har har har :3

I want to enhance my programming skills as well hmm.. so many things to do... so little time oAo;;;;

WOW such a long post

Iunno im hyper today ahahaha

Shit...

Reading and Comprehension.

2009-06-21T22:54:49Z

People this days sure have developed the inability to read.
My half brother drop by our house last night for help with his report on the Iliad.
He's idea of help includes Me reading it and telling the story to him. oAo

Whut? Seriously.. would you people get killed if you stop by and read? Wall of Texts can be fun too oAo; JUST TRY~

It also irk me.. when people do "read" They don't understand oAo; What ever happen to reading and comprehension I wonder.

When I was in elementary we use to have this game with reading and comprehension. Where you read as fast as you can and then look behind you to see what symbol your teacher is holding. That's for reading.
Now, After the reading you take an exam to see if you actually did READ it and understand. Depending on your score, you get another symbol. That's comprehension. That game develop my reading skills. I read really fast

On a completely unrelated note

I seem to have developed an obsession over drawing .. Hong Kong (Hetalia) "OTL

Damn you~! T_T WHHHYY?????

Computer Maintenance

2009-06-21T07:19:13Z

Sometimes I hate it when I'm being OCD

LOL

So I spent most of my sunday morning, cleaning my Laptop from Viruses.
If this Laptop's CD-rom drive isnt actually busted, I would have already reformatted it gaaah

Finally able to get rid of that autorun.inf virus thats been infecting even my USB drives and MMCs Grrrr
It keeps making folders into exe files and I hate that oAo;

Although, I should have cleaned it thoroughly the first chance I got, But my Laziness over powered the Ocdness har har

In anycase
I finally re enabled some system tools that was disabled by the viruses
Like Folder Options, Reg Edit, Msconfig (although I fixed that a long time ago)

Also Finally finished fixing IE LOL I killed the sowar Virus long ago.. just that my IE still has the Sowar Browser thing..grrr

I just hope that I could get this laptop reformatted T_T sigh... ah well...

I would like to thank the internet's vast knowledge database in helping be battling out the forces of the VIRUSES

even though
you cause it too LOLOLOLOL

Yes, I'm happy to be a computer technician
And I think I'm a fine one XD

Birthday, Fandoms, Cosplay and Things to do

2009-06-17T09:42:04Z

Birthday

Ack! It's so near.. My birthday I mean, I'm getting old Boohoo T_T I hate the fact that I am so old... even though i neither look old nor think old. Unless I'm worrying about money LOL ...Otherwise.. I'm pretty much childish my nature...
Random fact, I never had a party for my Birthday..EVER LOL , Atleast not that I'm aware of, though I have a fairly good memory. Hmmm

Fandoms

So yes, Recently added two things on my Fandoms LOL Fairy Tail and Hetalia, although I dont think im such a huge fan.. I guess a normal fan? LOL

Fairy Tail is fun. To be honest I really thought it was made by oda the first time I was reading it. Their styles are just too similar oAo. But what I can only find out is that. Hino Mashima has never been an assistant to Anyone, Oda has been an assistant to watsuki and Both LOVE Akira Toriyama. But other than that, I dont know what else to connect them with to explain the art similarities oAo; Such a mystery. I shoudl wirte them a Fan letter LOL!
More about Fairy tail, There is a character there that I love so much since it reminds me alot of my own Original Character, Aoko. That character would be the Titania, Ezra Scarlet. Wah! She's definitely really cool! And the similiraties to my own character is shocking oAo;;; LOL! Basically she's my type of woman/ Hur hur hur

Axis Power Hetalia, Actually I know about this since way way back. Since going around DA, I noticed alot of people posting hetalia stuff so I got curious, But i didnt dive into it. I was basically afraid of the stuff that was included in it. LOL XD But I must admit It's still fun. I'll just ignore certain stuff LOL *cough* LOL! Besides. It's my personal LAW never to cosplay something I do not know LOL

OH! Well, I;m not sure if I should include this as a Fnadom but I recently been reading Kaichou wa Maid Sama! It's so amusing! The lead man... is kinda my type LOL! I guess I want some one possessive LOL
I think its cause... I lack attention XD AHAHAH
/shot

Cosplay

Previously I mentioned I would be cosplaying someone at the end of the year... Um its Kohran Li from Sakura taisen. It's not till the end of the year so I am hopping I would have ample time to save enough cash for it... cause.. I think it would be my most expensive cosplay to date .. just the wig would cost alot already oAo;;;;

SERIOUSLY! oAo;

I still have a dream cosplay.. that I wanna do.. its kaitou Kid of Detective Conan LOL
If I cosplay this, I wanna cat walk and perform a magic trick../. and I want it really really flashy! LOL

Things to do
The following are things that I needed to do.. for shure! In no particular order please

Hong kong cam whore *cough*
APH fanarts please
Ezra fanarts please
Finish Dling hetalia anime *nod nod*
FINISH GAIA COMMISSIONS *IMPT!!!*
Practice art T_T
Finish installing "Bots" MMO
Figure out what sort of Org I should build

Cosplaying to relieve Stress

2009-06-16T03:09:28Z

So yes... I pretty much realized hat despite my job not being that at all stressful as evident that I am actually at the office while typing this, I still pretty much lead a stressful life considering I have a family to feed ( No I don't have children XD ) I thought I needed to relax and spend time with some friends.
So I decided to cosplay again LOL XD

Though at the moment I am wondering If I should just continue with waiting to get invited LOL which I usually just do LOL!

Though, mainly the reason for that is cause I dont really have enough confidence in myself LOL!

But I guess cosplaying can be fun :3
I'm looking forward to the next few days.. when I will be a bit ok with cash...
That means I could start saving for stuff.. Like wigs :3

There are two wigs I wish to buy at the moment :3
A short red wig and a Long purple wig :3
There's a cosplay I am planning to do at the end of the year with some dear friends that I am actually looking forward to.

So yeah Good luck to me XD
LOL

Hetaliaaaaa~!

2009-06-15T00:39:26Z

So yeah, posting a NON emo Post XD

Seriously need to make my life more jovial like before XD

Nyaaahh

Okay!

So I was At the First day of Toycon (8th Philippine Toy Convention)

And I cosplayed Hong kong :3

2009-05-05T04:43:23Z

You know, I keep seeing people post and complaining about Computer problems and such.
And I dont actually see things like that as a big problem for me .. prolly cause i can fix them...
and im like *Orz* if i was there i could fix it for you.. its not hard... ^^;
The thing i like about computer problems is that THERE ARE ALWAYS OTHER WAYS TO SOLVE ONE PROBLEM :3

2009-05-05T03:13:51Z

It's a stupid one i might add

I dislike seeing happy people
quite possibly out of jealousy
Specially if they are old friends that you haven't talked to in ages
You know, those friends who you really didnt want to stop talking (but yeah eventually all people i meet ends up liek that *orz* )
and then you see them again all happy and stuff
and i look at myself all pathetic and depressive and lonely

sigh
There's a huge pain in my chest.. i hate this

When people attempt to cheer you up

2009-05-04T07:19:01Z

You know
the thought is really appreciated
But seriously...
When you are down ... and people tell you to cheer up... would that help? ^^;
Seriously.. in all my experience.. that actually annoys me more than actually cheering myself
*head desk*
Well it is appreciated.. just felt like so half hearted.. or they dun really know what to do...^^;
I mean seriously.. of course i try to cheer myself up i dont really need people telling me that (specially after saying Im kinda sad but im trying to cheer msyelf up) redundant much ^^; *orz*
make you wonder if they are really paying attention or if they really care T_T
sigh.. i already feel so alone :( and i have to feel this...

My point is
if you really want the other person to cheer up.. invite him or her to do something fun with you~
Distract them~
Dont ask whats wrong unless they hint you to ask theyd usually say it on their own anyway
Usually asking them whats wrong just makes them sadder...

I cried again

2009-05-03T22:23:31Z

I cried again... when i was in bed trying to sleep... this feeling of utter loneliness is really overwhelming.
I feel so sad and lonely. I got no one to talk to anymore.. no one talks to me... actually no one hardly ever even before...I feel left alone...and abandoned... even my family has... i dont really know why i deserve this : (
Someone help me T_T

I need to post in LJ more LOL
or at least remember to post in it more

Hmmm....
i guess its kinda pointless since no one reads XD

In anycase on to the writer's block stuff... personally i think its some kind of disease...that would kill alot of people faster... you know something like the black death of before?
I think it would be "disease" that would cause all the demise is cause of a number of things... Nuclear weapons might not kill everyone but it would result in alot of "mutation" it might creat a new kind of disease that kills so fast before anyone can cure it. OR this Global warming/Pollution bit... well alot of diseases are born out of dirty places i supposed.. and it might not be just one disease.. it might be alot..that would hit the world..if not at the same time but one after another
