i need to lose weight!

before the holiday ended, terai and i renewed our membership at fitness first. and going through their complimentary body mass analyzer, i get to realize how much i have to lose weight like crazy. lol

look at this
BMI - 23.3 (Overweight)
BMR - 5367 KJ
Fat % - 32.7% (Desirable range: 17-24%)
Fat Mass - 42.4 lbs (Desirable range: 17.8-27.6 lbs)

Target weight - 109.0 lbs
Fat to lose - 20.6 lbs

i may be exaggerating cos i don't always look fat but that's probably because of my color. i'm fat like a crazy insecure teenage girl suffering from peer pressure. first world problem, yeah.

whew. tomorrow has to be good day! Thank you Lord! >XD

need for hunger games

57 of 83 on the Hunger Games! seriously, if my eyes weren't too sore from reading too much on the computer i bet i could the finish the book today (joke lang). anyway, while my eyes rest, my fury goes in to take over by playing Need For Speed - Most Wanted! eh grabe lang nakaka-adik pala to bat ngayon ko lang to naisipang idownload? >XD

also while reading, i just downloaded a cinema copy of the Hunger Games. i've been hearing snide comments about the inconsistency of the movie against the book but oh well, i'm about to find that out in a matter of days. yeah right. on the book though, so far so good! i didn't think it would be that short, 83 pages TNR 12? I dunno, maybe i download the wrong file but the story is gripping enough to pass as the real thing. haha

e kasi naman i had 1 bad experience about downloading ebooks. when i was in highschool, i downloaded an ebook of Harry Potter 3 (or 4? or 5? i couldn't remember), i forgot the title already but i finished reading the whole thing, around 200++ pages, and i was seriously hooked. i mean there was harry being friends with draco and them getting caught up in the pyramids at Egypt. the final scene was of an explosion inside which led them to scramble their way out to survive and blah. lots of desert and muggle intervention and blah blah. i was fulfilled after reading the ebook. eventually, when the real title came out, i knew i was faked. nonetheless it was a good read, for a fanfic writer it was a freakin job well done. hahaha

ayun. sige. bummer mode. hunger games and NFS lang buhay ko ngayong araw eneveh. >:P

youth leaders summit 2012

LOL. look what i'll be attending on the 19th until 21st! A YOUTH LEADERS SUMMIT?! Natatawa ako cos mam ruiz just pushed a selected few to apply (including me), e shempre obedient ako so i passed the requirements. nakakahiya eh. i thought it was just a seminar for student leaders chuchu so i was wondering why it has a selection process yun naman pala it will take 3 days and is kindof, idunno, big? anyway. i feel bad for not being proud of this. first of all, i could hardly call myself a leader. second, i think the event is for aspiring politicians in the future (which i am not). third, chaka ko na ididsclose hahaha baka bad eh. but of course, with the school proud (if they really are) of having a delegate there, i guess i must do my best? technically even though the said dates are already after finals week, meaning my term as president of ICON and CBS has expired, i have not graduated nor cleared myself so i'm still subject to the school's uhm, mercy? hala ewan.

sabi nga ni sir earl when i asked him if i could excuse myself on the job fair because i'm not interested in call centers he said, "do it for the school." those words actually hit me, srsly. i've grown to love FEU FERN over the years and if my simple act of attendance and participation could actually mean something for the school, then so be it. i'll do it. so what i did was, I DITCHED IT!

bitch please, we have thesis (which is exponentially more important than trying to impress call center recruiters for the sake of...see i don't even know!)

back to the summit, so i joined the yahoo group for participants and everyday i get group mails coming from some members expressing their excitement over the event, plugging their FBs and plain wanting to be friends. i wish i could be as excited as they are! i am (kindof), but you know, i'll be going solo LOL so i'll just try to befriend maybe some fellow forever alone and uhm, walk around katips? it can't be that bad!

i wasn't planning on checking in cos LOL i just live at fairview HAHAHAHAHA but it would cost me some kindof pamasahe so sayang din naman pera and they said libre accommodation and FOOD so that's really really pretty cool! hahaha

i dunno. k. hahaha

Thank you for this chance, Lord, to once again represent the school. i sooo don't think i deserve this but oh well, that's one line added to my resume! hehe

wish me luck! or friends >:)

Emerson job interview

i was not entirely clueless about emerson when i heard from a friend that he was gonna refer me there. but i know the name emerson is not a popular brand. hehe the only thing i know about it though is that it's an engineering company, cos we walked in there at their office at libis last year to hopefully have a few companies accept our resumes for OJT ... but they rejected us. hehe

anyway,  before the interview they oriented us first on what emerson is. and from what i learned, emerson is an american owned manufacturing company that focuses on integrating technology and engineering in finding solutions that would cater to the household, networking and oil and gas industries. it's actually a really big company that owns around 60 more brand or subsidiaries, most of which are not well known in the philippines.



for the most part, emerson is what lies behind the brand who contracted them. your cellphone may be nokia but the battery is emerson made. your aircon may be condura but the compressor is emerson made. your laptop might be HP but the motherboard, emerson made. they work like that pretty much.

their core competence though is in the oil and gas industry. they make oil plants for petroleum companies like  shell and chevron. in fact, emerson was the one who built the famous offshore oil field in palawan, from the construction to the manufacturing of plant equipment, emerson put it all there. but of course, Shell paid them to so they're pretty much like a contractor you can hire, and the entire facility was branded by Shell.

okay so after the orientation, i came to admire the company even more. problem is, when i get to the interview, i learned that the position i was applying for (associate web developer) has only night and midshifts. night shift is 9pm-6am. mid shift is 1pm-10pm. and both of the schedules suck for me. >:'( here i am trying to fix my retarded sleeping schedule and the world suddenly ran out of day jobs. why?

it's like all the CS related jobs i ever looked into require us to live ala vampire. hay. Lord. please give me a high paying day job! >XD thank you, amen! >XD

at last!

low grade is low but what the heck. i'm not running for laude anymore anyway, so to hell with a high grade.


bummer. seriously? if you're gonna take our NAME collectively to present something you issued only yourself and did not even bother telling us, might as well create your own awards program or nominate yourself as president, or in this case, impeach me just so you'd have the rights to sign everything you want. and for the record, secretaries don't sign. unless said document is 'minutes of the meeting' or if no higher authority is available. and by available i mean not visible regularly in the campus. k. and why did the higher ups even sign that? did they even read it? gahd.

hotel hotel thesis thesis kain kain

haaay buhay

#1: we're still freaking clueless about thesis, our system is nonexistent and we're kindof only putting the bulk on the GUI cos that's the best we could put our efforts into. whew. final defense is on saturday, i dunno how we're gonna fare. i'm in between a suicidal week of trying to get some good progress with thesis and trying to shed some fats before sunday (impossiburuuu) AAAAALL in the presence of bad habits like sleeping too late and eating too much (when there's take home food). HAHAHA

our thesis' main menu frame

#2: march 6-7 was probably the coolest of all! it's philamlife's national recognition program and mommy is an awardee again so we get free overnight accommodation at makati shang! >XD terai escorted mommy so i was left at the hotel to chill with daddeh

best part, of course, was the complimentary buffet breakfast. this time they ushered us to Circles instead of the The Heat (like last year) where terai and i ate plates upon plates upon plates of whatever they have to offer, kelangan sulitin ang mga ganitong bagay kasi once a year lang! haha >XD

 #3: march 21 - i escorted daddy in another awards night! hurray hurray for foooooddd! >XD it was held at H2O hotel, no free accommodation but because of the corporate event, we were entitled to a 50% discount on of their room packages! edi shempre go na! i know H2O hotel is one of those unique hotels with aquarium themed rooms. we got an aqua room na mejo disappointing hahaha it's the 2nd cheapest room among 5 room types ata and the only special thing about it is that it has an aquarium on the wall! hahaha so much for 6,400something! i would've appreciated the Parkview room, the cheapest, because of the floor to ceiling window para sa Sofitel lang. pero eto, maliit na yung room, lalo pang nagmukang maliit dahil sa aquarium. hahahaha arte arte much

besides that, errr, amenities are kindof kulang... as an in house guest you're only entitled to free use of the gym and pool. no sauna, steam bath, and courts hahaha demanding eh no. it doesn't really feel like a hotel cos it was situated at a mall complex with ocean adventure oceanarium chuva and it was small. anyway, di naman yata 5star to kaya kebs lang. ang pinunta ko naman talaga dun ay eto...

well, hindi ito

 eto!

complimentary buffet breakfast at Makan Makan asian food village! yummehhhh

kaaay sarap kumain! >XD

and after eating, before checking out. check out the awesome pool yo!

ayun. kapagod. kabusog!

to magnum and simsimi post "haters"

 i know that what you really hate is not your friends nor their posts but the fact that the two topics are getting too much undeserved attention from the conventional norm. i also understand that you are, just as majority of your friends are, just practicing your free will and freedom of expression by posting how you're getting fed up with your news feed being flooded by simsimi screenshots and vanity ice cream pics. i also know for sure that one day, the hype with die a natural death and our timelines will adapt to a new trend which will be of the same fate as justin bieber who is now only being appreciated at 9gag hahaha. trending topics follow a similar process in economy called the "business cycle", except that it's a process not a cycle and there is not a recovery period. then again so called haters whether you like it or not, by showing your disgust you are only feeding the trolls and adding more search result pages on google. as for Selecta and SimSimi Inc, there's not much to hate, bad publicity is still publicity.

and can i just say this, i really enjoyed magnum ice cream (almond!) HAHAHAHA sobrang sarap kaya! kebs kung 50 pesos! kung makapag dilly bar nga kayo dyan eh. sos.

so my advice(s?):

IF you're a graduating student from my batch, PAY THE YEARBOOK FEE OF 1,500 >XD
ELSE if you know a graduating student from my batch, tell him/her to PAY THE YEARBOOK FEE OF 1,500 >XD
