busy daw

i've been busy the past two weeks.

oo.. busy... totoo to... walang halong biro... at lalong hindi kalokohan...

it's been a while since the last time na naging "busy" talaga ako. The module assigned to our group needed to be rushed to development, kaya yun, habol habol kme sa schedule. From design and analysis, nasa coding and unit testing naman kme ngayon. Grabe, the coding phase schedule given to us was very tight, as in TIGHT. 2 codes were assigned to me, both to be finished and readied for code review in 3 days. Whew! Buti na lang medyo madali lang napunta sa akin na function. Yun lang, sumakit naman ang kamay ko kaka-pindot ng keyboard. Sobrang dami ng tinype ko for a very simple code with a very simple functionality. Wala eh... Ganun talaga...

Ngayon, medyo relax ako... hehehehehe... marami pang gagawin, pero tapos ko na ung sa akin... pwede ako humingi ng gagawin pero hindi ako humihingi, ayaw ko eh. pahinga muna ko. relax muna. na-miss ko mga ginagawa ko pag wala akong ginagawa. (huh!?) na-miss ko magbasa ng blog ng mga friendly friends ko. na-miss kong mag surf lang maghapon. na-miss ko magsulat sa blog na to. na-miss kong... uhm... wala na pala. :-D

haaaayyyy... makahingi na nga ng gagawin sa PL ko...

nah!! mamaya na lang! hahahahahahahahahahahaha

good bye itunes! hello ml_iPod!!!

i've been using itunes since i first started using my iPod... but that first time instantly made me say iTunes suck! but i was forced to use it since there are no other alternative programs for managing iPod music (at least the free ones).

but luckily i came upon this great plug-in for Winamp (ml_iPod)... it provides Winamp Media Library with the ability to read your iPod and let you sync and reverse sync music files to your iPod!

and it's free!

and it runs in WinAmp!

great!

an old piece

i was going through my old things the other night and i stumbled upon a piece of paper where an poem i composed was written. it was dated 04121998.

as i read the poem i caught my self smiling, not because of the story behind the poem, but its relevance with what's happening to a friend of mine currently.

so this poem is for my friend... hehehehehe... read on...

i've always kept this feeling
in my heart, deep within
it's about how much i care for you
of how much my heart beats for you
i don't know how to tell you about it
i can't find the words that would fit
i've tried to tell you once
but you turned down my only chance
so now i'm afraid to speak
the rejection made me so weak

but to tell you, you're still in my heart
nothing yet can tear my feelings apart
my heart still beats for you
i've never looked at someone new
i've taken every chance to show you i care
i tried to always be there
when you have problems to share
i've always been ready to give help
whenever you're in need and can't do things yourself
i've tried everything i can to make you happy
even if it means i should be lonely

but no matter what you do
it will still be you
nothing can change what i feel
it will be you still
even if you give your heart to someone
you will still be the one
i'll still wait for the time
when you'll finally be mine
when you can accept me for what i am
when you'll reach for my heart saying
that one sweet line

i'll still hope for that day
when we can walk hand in hand
when we can let time pass with you in my arms
i'll still hope for that moment
when i can share with you all the happiness in the world
all the beauty that's with it
all the wonders it can offer to both you and me

i hope that time would come
when i can finally live the dream that you're mine
and live that wish that i've wished
all this time

i hope that day would still come...

wheeew...

salamat!!! i finally passed an initial draft of my design to our BA's. I was able to finish the document in just two days. Normally it would take such a design at least a week or two to finish, but since we were given a tight deadline, i was forced to finish it in less than a week, from reviewing the requirements and making the design documents. But it doesn't end there, because the initial draft is considered only as 75% complete. After the review, i expect several changes still, but it won't be as demanding as with the passing of the initial draft. So now, i have time to relax a bit., though i'm still working on the design document.

This gave me the time to post a new entry here. The holy week has just passed, but somehow i didn't feel it. Unlike the previous years, holy week has lost some, if not most of its solemnity. At least for me. Add to it the fact that i was alone at home during the week. Usually my family prays together on Good Friday. But not this year. Because my family's on vacation. So, left by myself at home, i didn't observe that usual practice this year. i didn't even go to church on sunday for the easter mass. bad bad me. hehehehehe.

home alone, in a graveyard, missing you

graveyard shift..

so here i am... wide awake when everyone else is fast asleep...
i've been in this shift before so i'm not new to this. but there's something new. i'm missing someone i used to be with everyday. now, we're on different shift, so we'll hardly see each other for the week. it's quite sad. and the worst is, this is just the first day. *sigh*
i'm not yet busy right now. i don't have any documents yet that i can use to start with my design. so i'm just here blogging at the moment to kill some time. i'll be in a conference call later, in about half an hour. there i'll have a chance to ask for any documents i'd be needing for my design.
i just hope i can get hold of those documents as soon as possible, so that i can start my design. my deadline is 5 days from now so i have to start working. but, i can't, even if i wanted to. *sigh*

alone at home

currently in night shift... and currently alone at home... yup... everyone in our house is out, except for me... my sister's gone for a vacation. so is my dad and mom. mom and dad will be out for the week. my sister's on the way home, but she'll follow my mom and dad on wednesday. if i wasn't in a tight deadline, i would have joined them, but, unfortunately for me, i'll be spending the holy week here at the office, and i'll be up at night and asleep during the day. talk about sacrifices... *sigh*

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

missing her

speaking of sacrifices... *sigh* being in night shift means i have to work on a different schedule with my honey... *sigh* and that means we'll hardly see each other for a week... *sigh* sad *sigh* i miss my honey... *sigh*
