kakaasar naman...

ayoko na... super ang pangit ng ginawa ko kanina sa screening.
grr... i'm so dead.
how long would it normally take a person to create a html based website in notepad?
kasi ako the least that it would take me is 3 hours! including graphics designing and positioning...

sabihin nyo nga? meron ba ditong may kayang gumawa nun in 45 minutes?

iyak na ko.
nakakahiya ako. nakakahiya ang ginawa ko. yun ang pinakapangit ng design na nagawa ko. -_-;;

grrr... ang panget ang panget ang panget!
whew. bahala si Lord. impossibleng mapili ako. ikahihiya ako ng aking alma matter.
ang pangggeeeetttt....

gusto nyo malaman kung ano itsura?
sobrang simple... hindi naman wretched looking pero the fact na suuper simple gives me no edge. walang advantage.

wala akong graphics kaya ako gumawa ng sarili kong graphics. gumawa ako ng pangeeeetttt na banner... as in parang barcode font na maroon and gold with the words school of the holy spirit of qc.

yun lang. tapos 2 div boxes for navigation and content.
yun lang! as in yun na yun lang!

see that? see my mistake? see how a big dupehead i've become?

tsss. LoL. i replied to the email they sent me to confirm my (fraud) unusual luck. that time i'm really excited. imagine US$ 500,000! i can buy a lot of things with that! i'm imagining my life with PhP 28M! i could fully pay our existing loans! i will never ran out of clothes to wear! i can buy my dream computer! overhaul our cars, or better yet buy a new one! i can fix everything wretched about my life! i can buy anything i want! and use my money according to my own liking.

i happily emailed them as i said before and the next day (today) when i sat down on this chair to check my mail and surf the net... i recieved a reply from the filthy criminals.

indeed, being the big dupehead that i am, i downloaded the document and checked out the form.

it's asking for my identification. name address phone blah blah blah... and by the end of the form it's asking for a 315 euros processing fee.

where the hell would i get that? that's over 20,000 in our country.
that's when my suspicions start to build. i was so stupid, I KNOW!, for not suspecting the first time i recieved the letter.

i searched about the lottery, entering Microsoft Luckyday as keywords and it yielded a result that brought assurance (and a little frown too) to me.

the letter was not just a SPAM... it's a SCAM...
African Scam 419.

i saw a list of fraud lotteries and found MS Luckyday Int'l there.
now i know.
i investigated more on how to identify scam letters and it really matched the situation i am in.

the thing is.
asd;kfvhnbaj,fdbhqrkgdfk.f!
i absent-mindedly let a VIRUS enter our PC.
if it's not a virus.. then it's an ad or spyware.

either way, that's the LEAST they can do. and i quite lucky that i discovered it even before i filled out the form (containing practically everything a lousy criminal would need to track me, murder my family, and do other horrible things with my identity) and send it back to them. That would definitely end the happy days of my life.

i'm half resentful on sharing this to you. by now you should be laughing, branding me as a desperate quick-money seeker, a looser, and other berating stuff you could think of.
But i need not care, just heed what you think is worth heeding in this entry.
Just.. Beware of Scam.
that's a very lousy warning but that's basically it.

the big dupe and the big bucks

of course it's spam. how else gullible could i get...
sigh. LoL. what a silly gullible dupe.

we had our CRT (creative reflective thinking) awhile ago... it took the whole day but it's fun. =)

we were like back in our nursery schools where we sit on colorful rubber jigsaw mats and play with our classmates. it almost felt like that and just the mere thought of it makes me smile.

the CRT was, all in all, fun. i couldn't give you the full details because i'm too lazy to do so and even if i did, i know you're not very interested anyway.

tomorrow, back to normal. usual school stuff. boring stuff!

running idiots

i haven't done anything productive this day. =)
our classes were suspended by 2:30 pm because there was a bunch (i insist on BUNCH, not group. if u know what i mean) of idiots waving flags and banners blocking a main road that caused traffic and mayhem.

philippine politics. this is the worst i've seen so far and i won't be surprised if one day martial law will be declared. it's been an option for awhile and as for me, i care a bit but i think it would be for our own good. after all that's what we need!
we need a stricter rule to abide by and i'm sad to say that we even have to risk living under martial law just to get disciplined. we can always do it in other more peaceful ways but i guess we, filipinos, are not patriotic enough to care about what happens in our country.

whhoppps!

i have to cut that off. is this spam or is this true?
i won US$ 500,000!

wait... my heart is still leaping-up.
LoL. i hope this isn't spam. the letter looks so formal pa naman... with contact numbers and stuff...

grad pics!

we recieved the contact sized samples of our shots from our profile pictorial for us to select those that they will develop... LoL.. mine's not ugly.. of course i'm not in the right position to say i am ugly anyway. haha...
mine's fine. nothing great. just.. well, ordinary. i mean, that's how it should come out right?
there... can't say i'm satisfied coz i've been fixed in front of the monitor (photoshop) trying to swtich my head to different bodies!

it's hard, mind you and at some point my neck looked akwardly grotesque due to my lack of toning skills or in general, my lack of photoshop skills.

but somehow i managed to stick my head on a body quite, er nice (sarcastic)
i'm experimenting on my head. haha...

tomorrow... i wish there will be no classes!
i really wish!!!!
i need the time to... have fun and make my formal pic more presentable. =)
teeheee...

i need help! how do you tone the skin? in photoshop, i mean.


---
by the way. if by some bad omen there will be classes tomorrow i'll be attending the screening for the html contest.

wish me luck ok?
=) i'm thinking of my edges in html. basically... NONE!
i want to be in a contest... for once! please naman... i'm so desperate! i've been turned down once (in the ecosong audition)! and if i don't get in with this... aba. mukang malas lang talaga ko pag may screenings and auditions!

oh my... is there really someone who works with html in notepad and practically types EVERYTHING? as in codes? the javascripts? whoever he may be... he's a GENUIS! genius to the brink of not being human anymore!

whew.

help me help me.

sunday morning

afternoon na nga eh pero di bale... =)

ok. so i did my usual sunday routine which involves waking up 6:30am, getting dressed for church, going to church, singing, greeting people around, sitting and opening a book (no not the bible, hihi) and dozing off to my rude habbit. what's that? well, aside from sleeping (sometimes) i also bring a book to church (sometimes)especially when i find the homily boring. (i'm so evil, i know!)
you see, our homily lasts for more or less an hour so i won't be surprised if one by one people get knocked off to sleep. i mean, yeah i'm so rude but i still pay due respect. but of course, i don't make it obvious that i'm doing something fishy.
after church, we went to SM! yay! that's the thing i'm always looking forward to especially that it's just across our church. waheheee...

we ate at my favorite restaurant, yoshinoya! and bought some stuff for my sister. dad also bought me a vcd of troy coz i nagged him to. haha... you know what? my sister bought 3 cassettes of m.y.m.p. ... LoL.. why not a cd? eh wala cla cd player sa boarding house eh... that's why she asked me to let her borrow my recorder... hehe.. la lang.

ayun. when we got home, i watched troy again.
tapos.. eto.
