In This Season of ...

Every Christian knows that God gave them a season for their current state in life. They may be college students, pursuing their degree, professionals starting their career, or parents taking care of their children, guiding them throughout their life. Whatever season you're in, each one have its own struggles. But every struggle have an end, like a season, it has an end.

I would like to share this amazing experience that God always gives me whenever I'm with my spiritual brothers and sisters, specially when we have an outing or bonding. Currently, I'm a college student, pursuing BSIT; In a season where college students usually are.
  

Love is one important part of our life, and it's present in every season...

Love of friends, love of neighbors, love of family, love of God, etc. But some of us wanted romantic love. In our generation today (at least in my age), most teenagers wanted it, love life or romantic love. Personally, I also wanted to have one but, there's something more important than that, God. He made me realize that I don't need that in my current season as I'm already full of love. A love that overflows, satiating my want for a love life. Love from my family, love from my friends, and specially, love of God.

Walking to Timezone

The above photo is my spiritual brothers and sisters. The moment we're walking in a mall to Timezone, God made me realize something. I don't need love life right now, I already have the love of my friends! I took a picture for the memories, and as a reminder that in this season, I don't need love life. This is what I need, the love of my friends! And it satiates my want for a love life.

Romantic love will wait for itself. It has a season, and for my current season, it's in the season of waiting. After all, it will not go away, nandyan lang naman siya sa school eh :). Time will come when the season of waiting is at an end, and the season of courtship will come at God's time. All glory to Him!

Why do I... Play Hearthstone?

Hello my readers! I have decided to make a new series of posts. This series I will call Why Do I... This series will be talking about my opinions or preferences on why I do this and do that, hence the title of the series. For today I would like to post on Why Do I Play Hearthstone? As you all know, Hearthstone is a card game. You can learn more about Hearthstone from its official website.

I play Hearthstone because...

 Hearthstone is a simple yet very entertaining game. As they say, it is a thinking man's game. The diversity of every deck is very versatile and making your own deck can be very complex. The combination of cards across the whole game, the way how you handle the situation on the board, how will you use your turn with the current cards in your hand.

My first screenshot

I like the way that you have to think how will you turn the game to your favor by using the minimal amount of mana in a single turn. Well, not usually turn the "whole game" to your favor because it always depends on the deck you are playing. Also, it's using what you have in the most efficient and minimal way of using resources. Much like in real life, you have to use what you have in the most efficient and most minimal way for the best possible outcome. Playing decision making, turn-based games, such as Hearthstone, might improve my decision making skills. Other than the game's nature of making you think every turn, you also have to read the enemy's every turn, hand, and how he/she reacts to the minions you have placed on the board. Making more precise predictions based on the enemy's actions. That way, you have an idea of what is in their hand, and what will they do on their next turn.

Making the best deals anywhere

If you anticipate what will happen, then you will do what is appropriate. Much like in life, if you know what will happen, then your reaction will eventually be the most appropriate for it. Another thing that I liked about Hearthstone is the game's design and interface. It it is made to be a little less serious compared to other card games. You know what I mean right? Anyway, this game is one of many ways on how will I relax after a hard day's work. Thinking to me is not that tiring and it makes me engaged. And it also gives you time to think on your turn. I don't personally get relaxed on RTS games that's why I gave up playing Dota 2 or HoN. Although I still play them when I play with my friends.

Brain Training App and Website (Lumosity)

Lumosity is a brain training application for smartphones, and website for computers. It is mainly used to, as said previously, train the brain. You might be wondering, why train the brain? As we cannot defy the laws of physics, that everything ages, it also affects our minds. But this have a different effect on our minds. We already know that when we don't use our minds' capabilities that much, it will degrade. Sooner or later we will develop cognitive deficit/s.

Our brain have this property/capability called neuroplasticity. If we challenge our brain everyday, as what Lumosity does, the aging effect will be greatly slowed down and it gives our brain more capability to handle different life challenges, events, decisions and other aspects of life.

Yes, I'm using this app and website to train my brain. You're probably wondering why would I use Lumosity. Well, in my childhood, my brother wanted me to play a brain training game in the computer. He installed a game, which I can't remember, and we played it. From that point I have this very faint interest of playing it. I didn't play it everyday because at first, I didn't like it. But as we're forced to play it, I gained some very little interest out of it. And at some point in time, he uninstalled it. And my interest carried on until today.

You can create a new account or use your Facebook account to create an account. I'm currently using the free version because I couldn't afford the premium. Their premium offers subscription for a lifetime, two years, yearly, and monthly.

Using a free account in the website, you can only play 3 games a day. But in the smartphone application, you can play games until you can't play anymore. But there's a catch, you can only play games that are unlocked for that day. Other games are locked unless you purchased a premium account.

My Experience

I've been using Lumosity for about 6 months now if I can remember that right(talk about brain training). At first, it was hard, very hard in fact. I got low scores in games and my response was very slow. I didn't play it everyday as I don't remember to play it everyday even though I have its icon on my smartphone's laucher. But as I play it, things gets easier overtime. I got higher scores, beating my previous high score and response was faster. There is a breakdown of how are you performing and also, there's a history chart that summarizes your overall performance daily. Though the history chart is only limited to the last 4 weeks for free accounts, I can see my progress going up. I remembered I have an LPI(Lumosity Performance Index), your overall performance, of around 1550 the first week I used Lumosity. Then it went up from 1550 to 1650 to 1720 today! That's a big difference!

You might be wondering, "the games gets easier because you've been playing it over and over again". But that's were you're wrong. The games gets harder as you progress and get higher scores. Giving new challenges until you stumble on a level where it is very hard, you can't level up in the game! Because that's my current situation haha!

But still, my LPI is increasing despite the hard games I'm facing. And it also decreases because sometimes, I'm not performing well.

Why don't you try Lumosity today? There's nothing to lose here after all, and it's for the better of you and your mind!

I've Tried Meditation and the Results are...

Before I say what the results were, I would first say why I tried Meditation.

So, Why did I try Meditating? Because, I've been reading things online on how to improve your mental health. One topic popped up and that points to what I tried, Meditation. It says that meditation does not only bring mental health, but also physical and emotional health. I can prove that, except for the physical part in which, maybe, I don't meditate enough to say that it does affect physical health. But in my opinion, it does so by relaxing your body, making it function better because the muscles are relaxing. Removing stress from too much moving. Because when you're tired and stressed, your performance will be poor and your productivity will drop.

Anyway, so meditation makes me feel and/or do (at least):
- Great about myself
- Relaxed and nothing to worry about
- A glowing smile on my face
- Calm state of mind
- Better treatment to people
- Can think clearly

So, let's discuss each on of these:
- Great about myself
I usually feel great about myself. Because why not? But this time, when I meditated, it make me wanna seize the day. To the point that I have full confidence for that day and that nothing will go wrong.

- Relaxed and nothing to worry about
Because nothing is stressing your mind. You will feel relaxed and you have nothing to worry about. If there is something to, then you will definitely get it sorted out in no time. This time, sorting it out will be a lot easier and it will be done calmly.

- A glowing smile on my face
I'm usually a happy person. But it does not extend to the point that I will smile. But this time around, it put a smile on my face. I don't know why but, I just fell like doing it :)

- Calm state of mind
After meditation, you have nothing in mind. Having nothing in mind is great for awhile specially if you're stressed out. It will relax the brain and it will function better, because of the relaxing treatment from your meditation.

- Better treatment to people
There are times where you wake up to a bad day. I'm not talking about Monday but, when we have a bad day, your mood will definitely affect other people because you will treat them not the usual way you treat them. Moods have the capacity to treat other people depending on how our mood is. For example, you went to a coffee shop. You went to the counter after you make-up your mind on what to buy. The barista greets you with a glowing "Good morning sir/ma'am!". On a bad day, you will usually just nod and make your order (at least that's what I do). On a good day, you will respond with a, "Good morning!". Meditation will calm your mood, usually making it a better than your last state, and you will treat other people better.

- Can think clearly
This is an obvious one. You can think clearly now! Combining with the previous benefits, you now have a clear state of mind. Having a clear state of mind is like having no friction on a car engine, it functions at its fullest!

On a side note...
These are what I felt after doing a meditation. I don't know if these will also apply to you because all of us are different, unique. But there's one thing that I'm certain of. If you did it correctly and properly, benefits will come to you. It may not be the same on what I've experienced, but it definitely has benefits.

It's Not in the List of Life Goals. Well, not anymore...

So I got block down for what I wanted. This is something that is not easy to go by. Today, as I was going home, something hit me. My mind started to flashback all the things that happened. And I said to myself that I think that this is not for me. That I don't deserve this. But, something butted in my mind. It's my subconscious. It started to fight my bad thoughts and stop the flashback. Then I was talking to myself in my brain.

"Look Jasper, it is not yet for you at this age. It is hard when you are young. And it will get easier when you age. At this point of 18, there are still many things that will happen to you. With around 60 - 80 more years of life, or maybe earlier. We are still not certain of what will happen to us in the future. Something that you are expecting and something that you never intercepted that it will happen. So at this young age, just be patient. The quotations "Patience is a virtue" and "Good things come to those who wait" are very good quotations. But of what do they really mean? You already proved what they mean and gathered the prizes already. You are already bathing in those hard earned prizes. How did you prove those quotes already if you're not waiting for something? Not literally waiting for something. Patience comes in may ways; Some is waiting, some is forgiveness and some if for repetitive movement. And the form of patience that you proved already is the repetitive movement. Think of it that everyday you do the same thing. Go to school and attend class. Eat lunch and hang out with your friends. Seatworks and notes are written. Dates are scribbled and inks are used. After the day at school, study, homework, project and write here, write there. And finally, do some fun! Don't you realize that you are doing the same thing everyday without hesitation? It's because we are being patient! That's the main point of why we are doing things repeatedly redundant! And still here we are, doing the same thing over and over again. Then we can decide to do something different. It's still the same thing! Because we wanted to discover or learn. We learn and discover everyday so the cycle begins again! Isn't having patience beautiful? And your prize will be arriving at you. You will not go to the prize, the prize will go to you because you are being patient.

Now what does this relate to "It"? Well, this kind of patience is the patience of waiting. 18 years old doesn't have to be the end of everything when you are turned down. But at these times, thinking clearly is not easy. Clearly, it's not easy at these times. So that happened, it slowly broke down of what you believe in that thing "forever" from solid as a block to an air as evaporated."

So, when I was writing my list of goals in life. You will notice and see that it's not in the list of life goals. Well, not anymore...

My "Lost Hobby"

Recently,I've been busy with something that I call a "lost hobby". It became my hobby when I was fourth year. How did it became my hobby? Well, my classmates were doing some doodle and I was amazed of how do they do those things. I myself wanted to do some amazing things. So I got into the hobby of doodling. What I first doodled didn't look what I was expecting. It was a disaster, and my classmates were teasing me that my work is horrible. It really became my past time. Although I need a lot of time and light for the work to be done. I purchased some drawing specific pens that costs me not that much but, hurts your wallet. I drew and I drew then I watched some video on Youtube on how to doodle good and some of that stuff. Then days and weeks passed, I've been noticing my works are looking better then ever. So, I uploaded my works online and some likes there and that. My works are bundled in an album in my profile in Facebook. So, here's a teaser of my latest work:

This is the bottom part of the doodle. Above that is the name itself.

Some of you may say, "that doesn't look good". Well, we have different tastes on how do things work around the world. So your taste didn't match mine.

Where Do I Get My Resources?

Some of you may be wondering where I get these things and tips. I get these from Google mostly. I look first at the address of the website to see if it is reliable and secure site for no viruses. Speaking of viruses, my next Technology tip will be about Security :)

Some of the things that I still don't know and just saw it and I was like, "Oh, why didn't I ever wonder what this is. Maybe it's something interesting". And when the video ends, I was like "Why didn't I researched for that before, this is very useful information in a shot time." Speaking of videos, Linus Tech Tips my best resource of information. Mostly from his educational "As Fast As Possible" educational videos which is, what I said earlier, "very useful information in  a very short time". He explains complicated things in a simple way. Please check his Youtube channel and make sure to give me a shout-out for referring you to him from my blog :)

How do i get to know his channel?
I first knew his channel when I was searching for evidence of the liquid screen protector. The "nano technology" things that is said to be stronger than a regular screen protector. Then I searched Youtube for the evidence then I get a few results. I looked at the title first before I watch the video to know that it is that things that I'm searching for. Then I saw his video, after the video, I looked at the comments. People were like saying technology things to be reviewed and I was like "Hmmmm, this is interesting comments". Then I took a look at this channel and BOOM! Linus Tech Tips.

High School Life

I just wanted to share my recent high school life. It was great but, it's impossible that every person don't have a problem in their life. First thing is my Freshmen days, it was the first time in high school and I was like "I wanted to be a topnotcher!" but I never got good in my grades. I was just your regular student that don't want to fail my subjects and also have a good time with friends. So, 1 year passed then on to the Sophomore years.

On the sophomore years, I had a great section with me. A section that is full of fun and also emotions. It was the year that everything just got heavier. My body, the world, emotions(that explains puberty) and any other manly things. I was teased alot because of my appearance you know, very slim, bony and stuff, and also they think that I am a nerd, you know, the ones that always loved science and math and any other things complicated, I'm not that person, I also love to hang out with my friends, talk to them and I never get to be popular around the school even though that I have been studying there ever since I first started my career in academics. So, 1 year passed then Junior years was born into my life.

On my days as a Junior, I was like "Hey, I'm the new me!" because I liked to change since I'm nearing the real world you know, going into long rides, trouble with traffics, late into college hours, Saturday classes and many more that life has to offer. Anyway, I got new friends and then the whole junior students knew that I had a crush on that girl, seriously. I tried to maintain my standard student role of not getting failing grades since they said that junior years is the hardest part of the high school life. This also the year that I first played the game Heroes of Newerth, my friend is telling me to play the game and I was like, "Not in a million years!", he was like begging me everyday to play the game then one day, a thought goes through my "Trying wouldn't hurt". Then the day forth, I was an avid Heroes of Newerth player. So, 1 year passed and finally, Senior years and I ran into each other, bumped in the middle of the road(not noticing that it was there) and we met each other.

And the last years of my high school life began. I was like "Hahaha I know every corner of this school, it's weakness and strong points!". First thing that I wanted to mention is my damn emotions keep begging me to woo this girl until that day that finally came. It was my first love and I had a great time with her. She is a dancer and I was like paralyzed when she dances. We only last for 2 months but I was worth it, it taught me how to do stuff better then before and I was able to talk to other people more. After that great breakup(I said great because it was also my first) my friends was helping me to shove all of the emotions and move on in life. We hang out always in their houses and we always laughed also we talked about our love lives and many more. No great friend never come into no problems with each other, we had to find a solution to our problems in our group or else, we'll be separated from each other which we don't like. We were called "One direction" back then because we were 5 but, 1 was just a cut in. When it's just the 4 of us we call ourselves "F4". I had great friends back then. Going out into the night, going home late because a night with your friends. Yeah, it was all good in those years. My academics were still standards despite all of the outings me and my friends had, trying to not get a failing grade. Then suddenly, Senior got shot in he head by Graduation that had to end all of those years. "In memory of Senior" stated in the tombstone.

One word that I'm going through now, College. You know the shots, everything's here the good and evil doings, the influencing people neither moral or wrong. Well, I need to continue my homework now, this post just goes through my mind just to free my brain from work and relieve stress for a while, and it was worth it. You know the closing remarks, KoS or Keep on Smiling :)

Accidents Happen

Recently, there has been an accident to me. My right hand got Lacerated! You know what lacerate is? Lacerate is the medical term for "cut" on the skin. The part was the right hand near the pinkie finger at the bending point of the palm at the end, if you know what I mean. I made the necessary first-aid procedures, then off to school I go. After a while, my wound bled again, I arrived at school then I go straight to the clinic to change the bandage. The Doctor said that I needed a suture for the wound to close properly. I got excused of all my class that day and I called my brother to help me with the suture and costs. We got to The Medical City, fist I was x-ray'd to see if there was still a substance left inside then, I got sutured. The Doctor said that there was nothing there in my hand that got inside, that was a big relief. After a week or so, I got my suture removed at the school clinic only to find that the wound did not close. I got advice and procedures from the school Doctor of how will it be and when will it close or will it close? When the wound did not close, then another painful suture is at hand but thank God, the wound closed after a week taking care of my right hand. "The wound did not close because your hand is always closed, making the skin contact yes, but when the suture is removed it will be painful if you strech out your hand" said the doctor. Wondering how I got lacerated? Well, it was when I was washing the dishes and when I'm trying to get the glass back to it's container, my hand slipped the glass then I tried to catch it with my right hand but the glass already broke then my right hand followed...... you get the rest. Anyway, my right hand is healing now and I have no problem regarding the hand. And as always, Keep on Smiling :)

So... How's College?

College's been okay recently. There's never a student that never have a bad time about his/her studies right? Well, mine's been racking up recently. First is that I have a failing grade for the first 2 Terms(And yes, I'm not ashamed to say that because everyone makes mistakes). The first term is MATH10-5 which is Algebra. then the second term is FiIL 11, which is philippines' history, and SS09 which is Sociology with Anthropology. I now know how to use C++ but not all of the codes i know and a little bit of HTML. Being an IT is what I really want but I've been thinking of shifting to CS you know a higher degree in IT, but it has more Math subjects but I consider Math because it's one of the subjects that I "want" to shine in. College's been okay recently. There's never a student that never have a bad time about his/her studies right? Well, mine's been racking up recently. First is that I have a failing grade for the first 2 Terms(And yes, I'm not ashamed to say that because everyone makes mistakes)

Another thing is that I need a client for my HTML subject to pass. We need to have an actual client that wants a website and we'll submit out project and our professor will check it if it's really a client that wants a website. I have an idea of a client but it was turned down because it already has a website. I have another plan of proposing a website to another client, it was when I was walking home I realized that I'm walking a alley full of new establishments, liquor store, motorcycle parts, mechanic tools and a club(I admit that I'm ashamed of asking the manager of that place). Now I know where to go when I have time to visit their shops and propose a website.

That's all I can say for now, oh and one last thing is that I'm planning to buy a new phone, it's a local brand named Cherry Mobile and the model that i'm buying is the Flare HD, it's priced 5,499 pesos. I'm accumulating 500 pesos saving every week and I have currently 1,500 pesos in my bank. That's around 8 more weeks of endurance of my current phone.

Anyway, for those interested to look at the specs of the phone:

• 1.2GHz Quad-core Processor, MediaTek
• 1GB RAM
• 4GB Internal Storage, expandable via Micro SD Card
• 4.3-inches HD IPS Display, 1280 x 720 pixels
• 12.0-megapixels primary camera with LED Flash
• 5.0-megapixels secondary camera
• Dual SIM, Dual Standby
• 3G, WiFi, WiFi Hotspot, GPS, Bluetooth
• Android Jelly Bean 4.2
• 1,800mAh Battery

Pretty neat huh? a great smartphone priced at 5,499 pesos :) Oh and don't forget my catch phrase, Just Keep on Smiling or KoS :)

A Little Message For My Friends

I'll be typing here a message for my friends that got "something" with each other.

          Hi there, both of them confessed something to me this last Saturday. I know that those words will mark something in me but I'm always marked like that. I get used to it, there's no harm in it. I just wanted to say to the guy, "Turuan mo siya kung anong ibg sabihin ng Love, diba naguguluhan siya doon? Ayan, I-define mo sa kanya. Nag tanong siya, sagutin mo ng maayos" that's in Pilipino language. And for the woman "There's your answer, all you have to do is  understand what it is and do what it tells you. That's the answer you received of all answers that may answer your question."

That's what I wanted to tell them, but I just wanted to share them with you guys. Anyways, I just have to get myself rid of the past and my current feelings. That's what you're searching for, a similarity to your personalities, well, you've just hit the jackpot, go embrace it! I don't care of who I choose, that important thing is that the woman loves me. Whatever her personality is, Love can change everything, that's why I disregard that "desire" for a partner.

Oh and another thing. I do support you guys however, I don't like to see you both together, it makes me huff and gives me a bad mood for about an hour or two. So, If I see you both together, might as well activate my Assassin mode, stealth is my middle initial, and I intend to use it when I wanted to, you won't see me leave, and no one's concerned of where I have gone to.

Please, if you wanted to show this to her, do so, I can't express these verbally so I'll just do it by writing or typing here in this blog. If you wanted to confront me, do so but without her, excuse my catholic views but, we're different religions. I look at things my religious way and you look at things your way, we have different  perceptions and views. And if after the confrontation you'll speak to her, please do it after classes, and one last request, please define to her what love is. Take care of her and love her as how you loved yourself, protect her and always ask for her condition, you'll never know if she's saying the truth.

And no, I can't say KoS at this post, this is an emotional post, no jokes this time(although I just told one).

Formatting this Laptop? Or, a New Laptop

How about that? If i formatted this laptop, then I don't know if father will be angry at me bacause I still don't know if this laptop is fully mine or he's just letting it for us to burrow because of the school works online.

Other than formatting this laptop I need a new laptop, a better now, other than the purpose of gaming of course, I need a laptop because there will be one day that me and my brother will use the same laptop and we'll suffer the consequences either me or my brother. By the way if you're wandering why I need a laptop for my school it's because I'm an IT student, a laptop is required for IT students and my brother is studying Geologist, which he also needed laptop for the presentations and all that.

Other than those school activities, I also need a laptop to sate my gaming urges, especially if I haven't been playin' a while.You know, Skyrim, HoN, Oblivion, and other games that I always play and other incoming games that will be released any sooner. I won't be guessing that my father will buy me a  new laptop because he's very strict regarding money spending, he won't just give money by just "give me money because...." that. But I guess he'll buy one but not any sooner. Anyways I will be posting here again, just wait and there will be surprises or not? Just Keep On Smiling or KoS :)

Vampire?

Hello guys, If you know, I posted this at 1:40 AM. I would just like to share something with you guys, at some point in my life, I would like to be a vampire, really, I was just thinking what I would be if I'm a real vampire. You know, always wears formal attires and hates the sun and evades it and those guys have pale skins and all those. I'm trying to be one by having one of their personalities, like I like wearing formal clothes always as I'm always wearing polo when I'll be having along day at the school or when I'm having a long day outside of home and, one more thing is that I love the night, I love the way the night embraces our home, as the night comes, I become stealthy at times when I'm just walking around the corner, making no noise and being unnoticed, all that stuff I love to do. Oh and one more thing, my character in games are also vampires, like in the first series of The Elderscrolls Games, my character in Morrowind is a vampire, also in Oblivion and my upcoming character in Skyrim will be a vampire, as vampires acquire a bonus skill in sneaking and more undetected when you're a vampire. Concerning about biting necks, I would feed on the blood of the outlaws, and when I'm walking around that corner, I'm always thinking of jumping into the roofs of the houses and have a view of what's going on in out neighborhood and explore the area, walk around with strangers and get to know what their intentions are if it's bad, I will be like a night watch, looking at citizens and having to have these super hearing senses and having this super eye power that lets you have a night vision. I always think of those things when night strikes. And when I'm alone and it's night, I like doing this thing called "true form" letting my vampire look out and getting rid of the human form out for a while as I'm having a hard time maintaining my human form, giving the true form make me stronger and gives me the true strength of a vampire. Masking your true form makes you weak as you sustain it. I do sleeping at day time as vampires hates the day because they're weakened by the sun, they sleep at day time so they can skip the time and when they wake up, it's close to night and get to do their stuff. I do things at night because my brain's more active at that time, I also sleep at day because I'm always awake at nighttime. So yeah, I'm similar to a vampire but I'm not one, as I'm a good vampire and never wanted to be a neck biter, even if the victim is a bad person, we never have the privilege to kill a person even if it is an outlaw. I don't know what are the disadvantages of a vampire is, except for being weak at the sun and getting 100% weakness to fire, and also blood crazy when you're out too much without feeding. So, that's what I just wanted to share with you guys, vampire? I'm similar to one :) so anyway, thats all for today and don't forget, as always, Keep On Smiling or KoS :)

IT Week in School

Yup, I'm a participant on the event of our school, 2 in fact; first is the Pc Builder and second is the Amazing Race. First is the Pc Builder which start today, I;ll post something here of what happened after, I just wanted you guys to know that I;m proud to represent something in this event. It's IT week this week, let me explain those two, first is Pc Builder, it's like building your pc, assemble it's parts or disassemble, I don't know, I'll just say what happened. Next is the Amazing Race, this race is about brains, we'll answer some questions which have some thing in riddle I guess, I have a partner and together we'll figure out what those riddles would be, I hope we win in this race, but for now, Keep On Smiling :) or KoS.

Edit: I lost in Pc Builder, my enemieas were faster then I and they got the cables and all that to place and boot up the Pc. I was putting the screw the other way, that consumed my time and eventually lost. To be honest, I don't know where to put the other cables, I didn't handle SATA before and didn't know where to connect those, I just know the old way of connecting hard drives before SATA.

Amazing Race: The amazing race was frustrating, we ran into different places in the school and get the challenge at the station, the questions and challenges were related to programming and mostly interpretation like charades and "Pinoy Henyo. We were team 2 consisting of 4 members, me and my friend are IT's while the other two are IS'. The first station was something about programming but I wasn't able to solve the problem because I forgot some programming from java about 2 years ago while I'm still at high school, self teaching about java. All-in-all we lost but the important thing is that we participated and have fun while doing those challenges, we still receive a prize for participating, it was just a strap for your ID in school labeled "be grater than, accenture" with the greater than symbol at the middle of  the word accenture.

Well' that's all of what I participated at the IT week of our school, I hope you guys have fun in reading this post, and as always, Keep on Smiling :) oh, and I got 2 same straps, with the same design, one from the Pc Builder and the other at the Amazing Race. And again, KoS :)

Ughhh... 1 Year After?

Okay, I'm gonna start with what happened last  year. I was unable to post another well, post here because I forgot about blogging. But I came back, embracing it again and attempting to bring it back to life. Things have been good so far, a year have alot to tell after all, but let's skip all the blah blah blah's... I'm now a college student, studying at Mapua Institute of Technology at Makati, Philippines. Taking Information Technology as my course and hoping to have more experience and to graduate early at my degree. Though I admit things are not going as I expected them to be, my two first quizzes failed, I have to study harder and get better grades, if not, then might as well be an Irregular student which is a "common" thing in Mapua. I enrolled in Mapua because I wanted to graduate early, due to their unique quarterm, having four terms in a year, accelerating the required units to graduate and get a job.

Our teachers are oftem good but more are bad teachers "terror professor" as they call it. One of our teacher is that, bad news for all of us, we were already "victimized" by that teacher, giving me bad indications of things that will come. Good thing two of our professors are "cool prof." the one is our Trigonometry teacher and the other is our Filipino teacher.

Our fist week is a blast! having to cope up with the changes in college and get to meet new friends and get to know them and to get in with the environment of being an college student, it's not easy but things are getting better, as I'm already getting experience in coping up with college life. Most of our homework are conducted and submitted online through a site, online counseling is also an option if you're having problems with the previous lesson or about the assignment.

Well, that's it for now, I have many other things I wanted to say but I'll say them another time. Look at time that I posted this, I need to get to sleep, or not :D cuz I'm a vampire. :)

Bought School Supplies

Today we bought school supplies for me and my brother. I'm a 4'th year student this school year in Manila, and we're starting School this Wednesday, June 13.

We bought these supplies

8 Notebooks
2 Data Notebooks
2 Packed ball pens
2 pieces of ball pens
2 Pieces of intermediate paper
2 Pieces of 1/4 pad paper
2 pieces of lengthwise paper
2 pieces of crosswise paper
1 piece of wirepin notebook
1 large sized Elmer's glue
1 pack of pencils
1 large plastic cover
1 tape

Buying those supplies costs us 1014 pesos(Philippine currency) which gives us a free utility bag from National Book Store, the bag don't have many pockets which I am expecting, not like their previous free bag that have many pockets. This coming Monday, I'll cover my books and notebooks with the plastic cover and tape.

My Redesigned Blog

First of all, I forgot blogging because of the games I played like Heroes of Newerth, Skyrim and Oblivion. I just came to think of it, I like to blog again, so here it is!

I would like to say that i redesigned my blog to a new bluish eye friendly(I think) personal blog, extending the viewing area and minimizing the things in the right corner of my blog, changing the font style of almost everything and their colors, easy to see links colored in red, already clicked links in color gray, and the pictures have a border like shadowy thing. Anyway, my regular post will be every 2 days(or not). Next post will be about my Skyrim character, see you soon!

Random Pics

Here's a post that I will post with when I wanted to post any pictures of anything.

This picture show the bug of a custom theme called New Playstation Experience for the psp.

Here's a screenshot of my hon f8 console. I think those are caused by my mods.

Here's a screenshot of my mods in Hon Mod Manager.

Forgot to mention that there's page 2.


Here's a HoN screenshot of a player pm'ed me to visit a phishing site.

This is a Skyrim screenshot showing my problem with bright areas, those show boxes.

Patapon 3 Pictures: Myamsar

Here you can see Myamsar idle at the barracks. And also it's first form of his mask.

The animation of Myamsar when he is attacking with the PonPon attach chant.

Here's his Uberhero mode, called Sic 'Em Shadow. It is best used with a shield bearer class. He will teleport next to the targeted enemy and trusts the enemy with his swords. Also his shadow causes the target to be paralyzed.

This is the animation of how does he trust when the target is paralyzed.

This is his pose after finishing a mission.

This is also his post after levelling up.

And now Myamsar in his full mask form in the barracks.
