Cold

It was almost a week or two before I finally had the time to post. The past 2 weeks were very intoxicating. It’s really hard to wait for nothing just like waiting for professors to come during the 1st days of the classes. Everything was working fine, usual things have had happened. Math is becoming very hard not only of having to bring back the skills last summer, but also having a terrible prof. I guess everything really lies to me. Competition is somehow in a slow pace and it’s like that i can’t really notice the real competition except to myself. The season is getting cold; more rain pours from heaven. Maybe this is the reason why i’ve catched colds and it really kinda suck. Toxicity is increasing to the limit of the end of classes before the christmas season (at last). Machine exercises will be given next week, math homeworks worth 50-60+ points were also due next week, reporting is set on tuesday.. oh my, goodness gracious.. LIS 61’s somehow very interesting although i really dont like makin those stuffz.. Well.. if and only if..

What a day! Sun Tech Days!

November 5, 2004 · 1 Comment

The week was a blast, I wish that i have been included in the final 21 of the 45 volunteers that helped in the success of the conference. It was really great although it was hard to entertain the delegates as well as to assist them in their needs. Not only a line marshall but i was also called in most of the assigned places with their corresponding roles (registration/kit-giving/and even being an usher!) Although it was somehow chaotic, I think that the delegates were satisfied in the whole conference because of the talks, food, and especially the freebies! I wished that i get to have a USB mouse from the rewards section but it was so limited and i think there were only 100+ in their stocks. The speakers were good in their sessions. There was a time that i heard delegates murmuring in choosing which track to take (‘coz there were 2-3 tracks available), and he said that “im choosing between these two tracks, namimili ako, something relevant to my career and projects OR beauty and personality coz the speaker in the 2nd track was cute (the camera alwayz focuses on her face) so i didnt wonder anymore. :D Sigh, i wish i should have finished her talks about j2me.. oh well, maybe i better look forward for the next sun conference next year. ^_^ I got 2 stress balls! , and a non-functional ballpen from oracle..a really weird one. Well, it was fun to be with everyone making new friends, meeting lotsa different people from the different parts of asia (because it was a GLOBAL conference), and the important thing was learning or gaining knowledge. Technology is almost ubiquitous, just like what was said in the commercial presented at the start of the conference, “Java is everywhere.” Anyway, toxicity wouldn’t be over not until maybe the start of christmas vacation. :D I wish that i would do great in the subjects that i waz enlisted in. And to get rid of this stupid INC as well. Maybe this is all for now. I have a really great week! Fabulous and Fantastic!
