expect nothing

Tuesday, August 31st, 2004

I’m so fucking pissed today. I got some of my course cards. I fucking failed BIOCHEML!! The stupid prof lost my journal and gave me a 0!! It’s so bullshit. Then I didn’t even get to see my grades in THEOCOM yet. That’s another prof who didn’t submit the grades on time. God!! What’s wrong with this world now?

I was planning to visit Sans today. I changed my mind and somethings came up. It really pissed me more. Damn it!

Anyway, I got to fix the PC downstairs. I can’t find my Windows XP installer so I can’t reformat it. I also got to find a solution to the network and somehow it sort of worked. My stock knowledge of the local IP was dangling in the depths of my mind.

After that, I did nothing but watch TV which was really stupid, flipping through the channels a million times while waiting for something to come up. It was a vvveeerrryyy boring day!! Fuck! I can’t imagine the rest of my sembreak like this.

Oh yeah, I remember last week, I went to AUP to help with Bheng and her group’s report. They had a quiz and I got to answer a question that barely anybody got to answer. I’m proud of that. Haha! I just wanted to share that, so don’t come saying that I was bragging about that. I seldom get to answer quizzes. <proudly raises chin up high>

Hmmm, it seems that that’s my only source of happiness right now. I already downloaded five comics by Paolo Serpieri. The more I read it, the more that I found out that the story barely makes sense. Druuna is a stupid whore who doesn’t know shit. I’ve been reading them in the wrong sequence since I don’t know which one comes first. I start to understand more everytime I read one but sometimes it just gets weird without the other books.

HBB - Bill Gates Mug Shot

Monday, August 30th, 2004

Hahaha! Check this out!! Click here. It’s really funny. Bill Gates caught for a stop sign violation!! Hahaha! Dumbass mofo!

Can you recognize this guy? Hahaha!

Check it out, mugshots of famous people. It’s cool. I’m looking for more mugshots. (Click here to check it out too) By the way, if you weren’t smart enough to recognize the mugshot above, that was Steve-O from Jackass.

Rest In Peace. Oh yeah! Finally, it’s all over. I can rest now and gain back all the sleep I need. We went to Moomba last night to see if Sanya will win as RX’s Radio Idol. God, I missed her. She got 1st runner up and a chance to be part of the RX crew but she’ll have to undergo training though. Haha! Hell, it was better than nothing but I was hoping that she’d go home with twenty grand.

We left early because Eric had to be home earlier. It sucks that I fell asleep again while he was driving. So, it was the four of us, with May-Ann and Mark. Sometimes, I just don’t understand the two.

Yesterday was Angel’s birthday. Didn’t get her anything. Maybe I’ll just give her a card. Hehe! I wonder how her tactical’s went. Ian will be going back on Wednesday, I wonder how that fucker is too. Then, next Friday, it’ll be May-Ann and Mark’s anniversary. Well, that’s what’s going happen in the coming days. That’s something to do in my sembreak.

By the way, I think today is Jhessel’s birthday. I forgot when his birthday is. Okay, let’s see what happened in the past few days. The whole week was my finals week. Cramming on requirements and shit. I didn’t know my section in INTRECO and I thought my exam for that subject was at 10 but it was actually at 8. Luckily, I bugged everyone asking what time the exam was until Joey replied and said, “Be here before 10 or you’ll have a grade of 0.0″. So, I rushed to school even without taking a bath. I didn’t study too, uhhh…I have sources so I had answers. I was pretty lucky this exams, I always got answers from somewhere. Now, I’m hoping that I won’t fail any subjects this term because I’m already behind and I’ve got a gut feeling that I’ll be in college for 5 years. I really hate math. It’s the source of all evil.

I just finished reading Druuna: Morbus Gravis 1. It’s an erotic science-fiction comic by Eleuteri Serpieri. It has a very weird but a bit interesting story. I got intrigued by this artist/writer because of his amazing drawing skills of the human form, specificlly on the woman’s body. I got to download an e-book of it somewhere but the quality of the scan was so bad that I can barely read the letters. I managed to fix it though. The one I read is I think second in the series. The first one’s taking so long to download. Let’s see, the story is placed somewhere in the future, many centuries from our time. Robots have been so smart that they took over us humans. The Earth was falling apart so we had to evacuate and build giant space stations/ships that floated all over the universe heading in any direction. So, this group of people have been stuck in a humongous space craft for hundreds of years that they forgot their history and they didn’t know what was happening. Picture this, a large group of people, more of a small civilization that’s being controlled by a computer. In this small civilization, there’s some mutation sickness that’s been spreading. It makes the mutated ones go horny and crazy. They look for human flesh, rapes ‘em then eat their flesh. Druuna, the main character has this boyfriend that’s infected and she gets this medicine for him for the mutations. She works it out fine like selling her body to some crazy doctor in exchange for medicine. I find her stupid though, but she’s cute. Haha! Her boyfriend, Shastar, discovered that they were stuck in a giant space station. But he was sick, he forced himself and brought along Druuna to show her what’s going on. Druuna kills him when he mutated. Then some old man helped out Druuna and showed her everything. Isn’t it a weird story.

It figures out easily because Serpieri is a very deranged artistic man that has a strong imagination and no friends. I’m waiting for the first book to be completed (being downloaded). Maybe I could understand it more. I should finish reading the McDonald’s book first though. I hate reading two unfinished books at the sane time. It sometimes confuses me. I’m already half way the book. I get to read it only when I have spare time. After the download completes, I’ll be get some more rest then maybe I’ll find something else to do later. How about you? How was your week? Leave a comment mofo!

Dead tired

Thursday, August 26th, 2004

It’s been a busy week. I haven’t gotten enough sleep and I need still need more. Argh!

Mark and May-Ann are here at the house, sleeping over. May-Ann got in trouble and I was sort of responsible for that, so I asked her to sleep here.

Sanya got in level 4 at RX’s thing. Thanks for all the people who supported her. I wasn’t that updated, I was so caught up on my other shit.

I’m working on my THEOCOM project. I was hoping to submit it today to get extra points. I’ll just submit it tomorrow. Gian’s asking me to make one for him. I guess I don’t have time to do that.

Last night, I had my dinner at McDonald’s. I was with my friends and I brought a car. So, we were eating and then suddenly, I heard a car alarm. At first I thought it wasn’t mine but when I looked around, there was nobody around. So, I went out to check it out. I saw some guy closing the door and there was a tricycle nearby. The guy quickly rode to the tricycle and ran off when they saw me. The door was open and my phone was there. I think that their target is the CD player. Good thing that I got there on time. It pissed me off though that I saw the security guard was just watching TV and he was closer to the car than I was and he didn’t hear the alarm. What the fuck was that? Stupid guard. He gave me this bad look, he was lucky I was kind enough not to tell the manager. Otherwise, he’d lose his job.

Oh yeah, THEOCOM exam went great and I’m really expecting a very high grade. My second long exam wasn’t as high as what I expected. But I guess passing it was more important. I’m worried on some of my subjects that I might fail. But I’m also somehow confident on passing all of them. God, I’m so sick of Mark failing Algebra. The joke isn’t funny anymore.

Oooohkay, that’s enough. I have to get back to working.

Who the hell is Bogart?

Monday, August 23rd, 2004

Had my first finals exam today. It was okay. I found some answers later on. Hehe! I’ll have my THEOCOM exam tomorrow morning. It’s one exam per day except for Wednesday which are CHEMLAB and PHYLAB1. This morning, I found out that our machine project’s deadline is on Thursday!! Woohoo! I still have more time to slack off. <obviously kidding>

I’ve been thinking about what May-Ann told me. It’s really bothering me a lot. It gets me thinking every now and then. What happened to her was cruel and it’s not funny. Although, it was good that they confessed and I know the whole truth now. I was thinking of suing somebody so that it won’t happen anymore. You know, there are some things in life that you can’t just get. It doesn’t have a price and you’ll just have to live with it.

Somebody posted a comment last night (I know who it is). THEOCOM is really interesting. Specially Bogart, the professor. Very interesting you’d have to kill for it!! Hahaha! Forgive me if you don’t get it. Just ask me about it.

Since we’re talking about Bogart, I had some questions to her regarding my second long exam. This is what she said:

So far, your second long exam is VERY promising! :) Please don’t be late for the finals, our exam is scheduled at 8:00 a.m., Tuesday, August 24, ha. :)

It makes me happy that it’s promising. But, the reminder of the exam time wasn’t that funny. I know I’m always late but at least I know the shit she’s teaching.

Anybody here who’s an expert on networking? I think something’s wrong with the new hub that my dad bought. Or it might be the other computer. Damn!! It’s pissing me off. I bought two new UTP-5 cables with jacks and it still doesn’t work. I could’ve used the money for something else.

In one hour, I’ll (or my laptop will) be officially connected to the world for 48 hours straight. I don’t know if it’s good or bad but I don’t care since it’s free. Hahaha!

So, what would you do while online for two days straight? Well, I’ve been downloading scans from Brazillian magazines. It sucks that their servers disconnect you every hour.

After downloading over a hundred megs of data, there’s something I noticed with Brazillian women. They look a bit old even if they’re just somewhere around 20. For most of them, I can say that they’re very beautiful but they’re not my type. I noticed that they love the beach a lot. Just check those tan lines. One more thing, they bleach their hair to another color. I don’t know, I’m not sure about that. It’s weird that pubs aren’t the same color as the hair on their heads. Or is it really like that?

Okay, let’s clear some things up. These are magazines namely Playboy, V.I.P., Sexy and Penthouse. They’re all from Brazil. I didn’t notice at first because the first pictures that came in were steady and the girls had clothes on ‘em. A couple of pictures later, the theme changed. But it’s all not skin. Their names are also funny. I don’t mind the special characters but some screen names are based from male celebrities and they use it as their last name. There’s one girl though (Marcia Regina), she’s the only one I liked of all I got from the series. She has this cute smile and perfect body. From the looks of her face, you could tell that she’s nice too. Here’s her picture:

Tell me what you think (I meant to say, “leave a comment”).

Anyway, while downloading, I was making a promotional animation for the school which will be shown on SM Megamall on Tuesday. I started yesterday afternoon and finished around 8:30 PM. Tomorrow is the start of my exams. Actually, I don’t know what exam I’ll be taking. I forgot to get the schedule. Dang!

So, how was your day?

Man, I love the internet…

Saturday, August 21st, 2004

Woohoo!! I’ve been online for 24 hours straight and I haven’t spent a single peso for it. I’m going to research on medical practice for some reason. Today wasn’t such a bad day. I wasn’t forced to go to Manila with my family and they left me with a car!! The thing was that it didn’t have gas. Haha! I had to spend a third of my allowance to gas it. Anyway, that didn’t spoil my day much.

Oh yeah, I gotta go. I have a lot of requirements to fulfill. Besides, it’s already our finals next week. Everyone panic!! Hell is coming!!! AAAAAHH!! <screams to death>

The Legend of the Mysterious Hits

Friday, August 20th, 2004

Yesterday, I felt sort of accomplished. Although it was a very bad day, some small thoughts managed to cheer me up.

Let’s get started. I crammed on our INTRECO report the other night until the following morning. Then, the other day, JC told me that we’ll be having a long test on THEOCOM the next day. Great, just perfect. Although I’m ready to take the test, I didn’t feel like taking one that time. Let’s get back to yesterday morning, I was ready to go to school but late. When I went downstairs, my mom brought my sister to school. I had to wait for her to get back which added another agonizing thirty minutes. This left me with just fucking thirty minutes to do my exam. Great, I only got to answer a third of the exam. Which reminds me, 25 points are at stake because one of ‘em is take-home. Haha! Almost forgot. So, our INTRECO report came. It wasn’t that bad. Then lunch came, didn’t feel like going home so I just ate at the canteen. I took my order and the lunch lady went in. I don’t know if she’s stupid or what, it took her like fifteen minutes to get my order. When she went out, she was going to deliver another order and forgot about mine. Then the supervisor was just there asking me to pay. I was like, “What the fuck do I have to pay for? My order hasn’t arrived yet and it’s been like fucking fifteen minutes already!!”. She didn’t talk anymore. Haha! In less than a minute, my order was out. Usually, it took longer. Stupid lunch ladies!! Get another job!!

After that, I went with Gio and Rain to Paseo. Then stayed there with RJ and Adam and a couple of other guys. I attended my STATPRO class and flunked a quiz. My current standing is around 52%. I’m working on it. But I know that I will not fail it. I’m not expecting to fail any subjects this term. When I got back home, I watched some TV then I remembered that I bought a DVD of Gigli, so I watched it. I had no idea what this movie was all about but it was okay. Dinner came and after that, I helped my dad bring the other car to Alabang. While we stopped at a gas station, I heard d’sound on the radio. That made me really happy. Anyway, I drove back to Sta. Rosa by myself and I got some good time with myself thinking about shit. Boy, was it a blast.

Hmmm, woke up and found out that I just completed a download of another album. “Heavier Things” by John Mayer. I’m out of shit to download. I don’t know what to download now. Somebody suggest something. I’m chatting with Dhen too. Haha! Oh yeah, torrents are actually working for me. I thought they were just good for broadband users. I guess, it’s going great for me. Downloads take a bit longer though, but who cares? As long as I get something out of it.

I just found out about the mysterious hits on my blog. There are I think four people that visited it directly and two were searching for wallpapers of Nu Virgos. Search engines were stupid enough to include such a keyword when I wrote it just once. Since, I have four readers, it still makes me wonder who reads my blog. It’s also funny that they don’t leave a comment. Leaves me clueless.

5,411.00

That’s what our electric bill showed. God, the bill’s been high since summer. But I think it decreased already, I think that last month’s was about 5 grand. Man, the house at Alabang doesn’t get a bill higher than a grand.

I got to download Satriani’s new Album, “Is There Love In Space?”. I was going to say that it sucked but after listening to it a couple of times, I can say that it isn’t that bad after all. Satch had two songs where he sang. There are some songs that sound the same from the older albums though. Other than those, it kicks ass!! It’s just as good as “Strange Beautiful Music”.

Mr. Yuvienco has been pushing me (or us or my org) to develop a mobile edition of Flash. He gave me a couple of ideas. I’ll be trying out Flash MX 2004 Pro where you there are templates for mobile phones. It includes templates for Nokia 9200 and 3650 which are available here. I’ll see what I can do with it. I’ll just play with it for a while. Hehe!

Show me the money

Monday, August 16th, 2004

Damn! I fell asleep last night!! I was doing our report for our BIOCHEM class. I guess I really needed sleep. We went to Lola’s place yesterday. Didn’t get to jam with Ate Tinay. Dani plays bass too and I got to teach him some stuff. Tita Linda is asking me to jam with him. God, she turned nice now. I’m so confused. I really can’t handle people.

I did nothing today but errands. Doing errands are easy ways for me to get cash from change and to drive around. Hehe!! I asked my dad to buy a new hub. I think he’ll bring it tomorrow. Hmm, Hoobastank’s playing tomorrow. Didn’t have cash and time to go and buy tickets. I got to save some money from last week. I saved half of my allowance. I got some extra cash from my dad. I bought a couple of stuff. I’m now left with a hundred and fifty smackers. I’m so bored. There’s nothing interesting to watch on TV too.

I was thinking what to spend my money on. Maybe I should buy a capture card. My problem is that I tend to spend my savings. Lemme see if I can save two grand and get that capture card.
