I’ve watched the first CD of the Dead Poet’s Society (yes, only the first CD because the second CD was busted). Anyway Mr. Keating (Robbin Williams) said a few lines from Robert Frost’s The Road Not Taken. Of course memories of my Lit class a few years ago coursed through my mind. I [...]

Okay! So long time, not much posts. I will not and shall not apologize for not updating my blog daily because it may and will most likely happen again and again (because of reasons that are in my control but seem to just neglect).
So what have I decided to merit a post? Nothing much [...]
Election Jingles
Posted in daily activities, elections on April 28, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
How I wish I had some EM shockwave generator that would disrupt their speakers and halt the torment from the election jingles everywhere. I find such campaign strategies irritating. Not only do thet capitalize on name recall (which is the whole point of repeating jingles night and day), nothing makes sense from the sounds as [...]
Finally, something to do

After 3 days of waiting from 830 for the sunset, 530, making friends and learning about them and the bloopers of common friends, we were finally given something to do. Study UML – Unified Modeling Language.
Apparently the people who were suppose to train us were expecting that we’d begin the internship next week. And the [...]

Have you been searching for artists that has songs somewhat similar to the ones you listen to? Pandora is your answer. It’s hidding here. This isnt the Greek myth girl with Epimetheus who released the evils from a box (the last that came out was a creature named Hope). This is a site recommended to [...]
Japanese Music

As far as I can remember, the songs I usually listen to are either ballads, old OPM, alternative, and rock music. Of course there are Disney songs and those that people classify as Christian-music such as Switchfoot, Jars of Clay, and Casting Crowns (thanks to my sister). And also Gospel music (much influence from my [...]
First Day

Today was the first day of the Canon Summer Internship / OJT / Practicum. I get to dress up in polo, pants and black shoes, look corporate (except the hair) and walk into Techno One Plaza at Libis.
Actually, nothing much happened. We were most of the time sitting down at the lounge, waiting for hours [...]
Canon Internship Opportunity Costs
Posted in adventures, daily activities on April 16, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
So, okay. I am going to have my internship at Canon. And I was having so many thoughts in my head and most of the thoughts were opportunity costs. You know, the thing you forgo when you pick something else. Like using up 480 pesos for a Chest X-Ray, CBC, and urinalysis for a medical [...]

Looking for Summer Internship
Posted in adventures, internship on April 13, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
As part of my Electronics and Communications Engineering course, I am required to hunt down summer internship programs, stalk them like a leapord stalks on its prey, and devour every flesh and bones the experience can provide. Not an easy feat in a corporate jungle, especially when the jungle in Metro Manila seems silent to [...]
