Be Organized

My family is planning on doing a huge general cleaning during this semester’s break. We have a lot of clutter to put away, but we have less storage space to put it. We badly need good storage solutions. Ugly boxes are out of the question! We need to segregate and organize our stuff. We have old televisions, that my father insists on keeping; old bags, shoes, electric fans, old toys, more toys; new clothes, old clothes, and my mom’s big file of Tupperware products. We need new cabinets to be installed in our garage to make it look more organized and clutter-free. Anyone out there who wants to help? Be my guest!

Last School Week

Tomorrow is the schedule for our case study defense. Our topic is the Sales Information System for a company. We are to develop a program that runs in C Language similar to the current program of the company that we have chosen. I tried looking for online education programs that I can check with so that we can make the program work.

It’s a great thing that Lexie’s brother helped us out. He’s really good with programming. He’s actually working on his thesis, but he took time to help us out. This afternoon, we were able to accomplish the flowchart of our proposed program design. It was really hard for us to use our own brains to come up with our own program, since we are not programmers. I was actually annoyed at our professor. He knew that we have other requirements to submit in other subjects, but he gave us barely 2 weeks to work on this case study. Anyway, it’s done. We just have to face him tomorrow for our defense. He shouldn’t accept teaching jobs because he’s not a good teacher.

[Update] We survived and passed the case study defense! No one got a failing mark from our group. Yay! Maybe we can now accept education grants! [/Update]

Booboo with boots

The highlight of this week is, Booboo’s paws are healed. Her paws are more prone to getting blisters, so we bought her dog boots to protect her paws because the pads on her feet were removed, and it will take some time before it goes back to normal. She’s back to her normal self, very sweet and playful; jumping and running around the house. The vet advised that we continue to give her vitamin C to give her immune system a boost.

Brand New

I finally changed my layout after, hmm… 6 months! I have been working on this layout for two weeks, and it’s finally up. I was a bit skeptical about this theme because of the colors I used. I am kind of afraid of pink, and its different shades, but I guess it worked for me this time. I am in the process of finding and fixing bugs, plus weeding out dead links from my blog directory. Hopefully, by the end of the week, everything will be running smoothly.

Booboo

In other news, my dog, Booboo, is sick. According to the veterinarian, her case is uncommon to her breed. She developed some sort of fungal infection on her paws. The vet said it could be due to the weather changes, or from the food that she eats. I told the vet what I feed her, so that eliminated food as the main cause. The vet gave her some shots and a prescription that she should take for a week. It is a bit hard on my part, since I have to clean her paws twice a day and apply an ointment. Booboo doesn’t want to be touched on her paws, so I always have to run after her. Licking her paws is a problem, so we bought her baby mittens to make sure she doesn’t lick off the ointment. After three days, her paws are almost healed, but I still worry about her. I don’t know what I would do if I lose her. I even told my mom that when I get my own place, I would bring her with me. It sucks that I can’t do more than I can to ease her pain…
