Whoa!!! Or maybe not...

It's NOT a good start to the day. Blogger was nice enough to wipe out what I just typed.

Because of that, I'm not so in the mood to make a new entry. But since I haven't posted for a while, I'll put all the events (with a few comments) in list form.

December 24: Christmas Eve, Noche Buena and opening of presents

LEGO is back... with a vengeance. I got the 1:10 scale LEGO-Ferrari! Yea!!! I open the box and... wow, that's a lot of bricks. They're all put in those 5 BIG plastic bags. My mom says I should assemble it tomorrow. Oh well...

December 25: Christmas Day

You can also call it Assembly Day. I assembled that LEGO model in a whopping 6 hours (split in two by our attending Mass). The finished product was sleek and gourgeous. (I'm obviously gaga over it!) That alone was enough to give me a sense of fulfillment that day. (Assembling it wasn't easy, you know! =p) This will be put in a glass case to be displayed in the living room. (No one is getting their hands on it... except ME!!! Bwahahahaha!!! Kidding... sorta. =p)

December 26: The Day After Christmas

We spent it by going to the mall and watching Filipino movies. (Mano Po III was superb, Lastikman was... too awful for words.) And in a shocking decision, my mom gives my first birthday present early! (To the reader: [hint hint!] =p) She buys a 1:24 scale LEGO Ferrari, as well as the drivers with podium (Schumi and Rubinho). This time, I get to assemble it before bed. After another 2 hours of assembly, the finished model looked very cute, especially with the Mini-Schumi in it. :) I duly slept at midnight.

December 27: On The Beach

I went with Miko, Anjo, Che, and Nic to Punta Fuego over at Nasugbu, Batangas. The beach was lovely (but Miko says the sunset is better), the food is scrumptuous (especially the soup!), and the pool was relaxing (even if I got a dose of the water gun a couple of times). It was a heck of a lot of fun. But I hope there's more of us next time, though.

So that's it, the past 4 days. In a word, WHOA!!!

That's all for now. Let's just hope this gets on the server properly this time.

Forza!

P.S.: Hmmm... That list form looks more like a paragraph form... O well. And remember...

The hint! =p

Lockout

I WAS supposed to post an entry last night. But I locked myself out of my own room. How the heck did I do that? (Sometimes, I can amaze even myself.) Anyway, I passed the time by talking to Abeth and Ellen last night. (Ellen called the lockout a 'bloggable moment'. =p) And I ended up sleeping on the couch too.

To make things MUCH worse, there was no cable. Also, the VHS was broken. And the DVD player downstairs was pretty much useless because almost all of my CDs and DVDs were in my locked room. (Pity me, pity me!!! Hehe...)

Other than that, yesterday was pretty much a boring day. There wasn't much to do, except play, surf, eat, and sleep (in any order). Today will be mostly more of the same (except for our reunion tonight, woohoo!)

Darn, I'm getting bored way too early this vacation. There has to be something to do around here!

Oh well, that's it for now.

Forza!

I have returned.

Yup, after more than a month of silence, I've finally gotten the time (and composure) to post here again. That 'more than a month' was filled with all sorts of events, more bad than good.

First off, academics. (I won't stay long on this topic, promise!) I'm out of the Dean's List after 4 terms in it. (Goodbye unlimited cuts!) Miko said it had to happen, and it makes sense. I'm not THAT smart to stay in it all my college life. Then again, I'm luckier than others. Many of the IT subjects, especially DBAPDEV, have scarred us IT people one way or another. Something needs to be done here, I think, or else the price may become too great for many.

On a lighter note, it's almost Christmas. (which means it's almost my birthday! ) I'll be all over the place for the next two weeks (Makati, Libis, Batangas, Tagaytay), taking full advantage of this vacation. It's like drinking water from an oasis in the middle of the desert. It's as rare as rare can be.

I haven't organized my thoughts yet, but I'll write another post when I get those sorted out.

But what matters is that I'm back. :D

Forza!
