Work rant continues...

Well, just like what i've ranted the last time... work is such a pain. This week i had to stay longer than the usual working hours, spend overnight, forget sleep, just finish the damn project. We did finally get to finish the project but it got me really bad. Right now i am suffering from a bit of a sickness, but not that serious... just a cold. Not only that, karma did played a little game on me too. We basically finished the project last friday night and me and my officemates went out and ate dinner almost midnight at McDonalds (we don't have a choice, it's the only restaurant available at that time), joke about the situation and i told them that i will close my cellphone off to prevent me from getting any call for emergency work. Funny it happened the day after... i didn't turned my cellphone off and the project need immediate attention. So i went to the office, worked on my own (i know it's kinda selfish and didn't asked for help but i wanted this to be done... as in finally be done!) until night. So much for life, i just hope it is really the end.

... but i still doubt that it is.

Hoped It Won't Happen Again... But...

I am just in a ranting mood coz as work (if work is a person) says it right now, my cancer is back. A time that we get trapped on a situation and that the salvation of the project is in your hands, fail it and you're doomed. Well, not as intense as the PS2 project, just equally mortifying as the house projects last year. I really hate it when this happens but what can we do, we're in the middle of the battlefield... or i can mildly compare ourselves now as the net at the middle of a tennis court.

Sigh, but then again... i can't just rant and do nothing. We have to get ready for tomorrow's work and finish it once and for all. I... make that we... hope that it won't happen again... but that's just a wishful thinking.

The Majaducon-Mendoza Nuptial

Ok, i've mentioned before here in my weblog about my friend's beach wedding, so i'm going to post a few pictures that taken with Mike's phone-cam.

this is just a fun stuff we did while we were down at the beach (in clockwise order starting from top: Jojo - Luchi's friend and suitor, Franklin - the groom, Me - ehm... no explanation, Mike - college classmate, Melissa - the groom and Mike's highschool buddy, and Luchi - their highschool buddy as well.)

This is at a valley up in the mountain early in the morning. This area is where Julieth (the bride) lives. It's quite remote but it's actually lovely to be there.

On the actual beach wedding, Me, Mike, and Christian (groom's highschool mate) prepares as it is about to start. We're dressed in a very articulate designed Philippine National Costume called the "Barong Tagalog".

Frank and Julieth getting blessed by their principal sponsors during the wedding ceremony. I kinda noticed how the wedding was done, it's a bit different from the traditional wedding that i usually see.

Well, that's it :)

Feeling Human Again

With all the socializing that i have been on for the past month, it's indeed a great way to refresh yourself and get connected with people. I've been to places that i have ignored for years... my birthplace where i met my relatives and old friends, my alma mater where i got to mingle with my close college buddies, to a remote location for a friend's wedding, and expecting more in the following weeks. I've mentioned this to Doug, a good online friend of mine, and he comments "man, you're becoming human!". It might sounds sarcastic in a funny way, but i think he's pretty damn much correct... and this does give me positive energy.
