Been A Long Time

Oh my, oh my… it’s been more than a week since I last blogged. Having no internet connection at home really sucks. According to PLDT, our DSL connection is still being processed. A lot has happened in the past week. Yesterday, I successfully upgraded to Wordpress 2.1.1 without experiencing any errors. Thank heavens!

[EDIT]I’ve upgraded to WP 2.1.2[/EDIT]

Last Friday, my classmates and I went to a seminar that talked about being an IT student. I thought that it would be for our school, but apparently, it was actually hosted by our college for high school students across our province. We listened to two good speakers. The first one imparted knowledge about being an effective student, while the other gave us ideas about some softwares that we can use for digital imaging, and animation. Of course, I already have the skills in using Adobe Photoshop and Macromedia Flash, but it was really cool when I found out about Acid 2.0, a software that can do music mixes; plus Morphing. There was a concert after the seminar but we decided to skip it and just eat. Ryan came to see me and he ate with us, girls, at Tokyo Tokyo. The guys went some place else to eat. I bought a new mic for my computer, too.

On Saturday night, my whole family attended my aunt’s birthday at Seafood Island, a restaurant at Market Market. The food was delicious! I just love seafood. I was stuffed after eating. Good thing it’s seafood, so I don’t have to worry about gaining weight. Yep, I’ve lost 13.2lbs since January; 7 more pounds to go and I’m back to my old figure. I’ve actually been putting off getting back in shape. Mind you, it’s hard to lose weight than gain. Ryan’s been very supportive and tries to eat the food I eat. Haha!

Sunday, I bought lots of DVDs. I got the seasons 1&2 of Lost, season 1 of Ugly Betty, and some random movies. I’ve finished watching Ugly Betty, and I actually liked it. I can’t wait to get my hands on the new season DVD. Ryan and I started watching season 1 of Lost 2 days ago. We’re on the 13th episode and I can tell you that it is also addicting. I mean, I can’t even predict what’s going to happen next. I told Ryan to go watch the rest at his house, and I’ll continue watching in mine. His uncle’s got the DVDs of Lost, too.

Anyway, my school is being really weird and annoying. Yesterday, I purposely didn’t go to school early. Then I received a text from my classmate, informing me that we have no classes. It’s the same thing for today. They arrived at school and found that the lights are off and the rooms are locked. They should’ve informed us of this seminar and not let us waste our time and money traveling to school. So basically, this school week has been a waste, including the first two days where no professor showed up. How fun is that? Argh!

Sadly, I had to say goodbye to one of my partners on my online business. Well, it’s not actually sad, considering the things he’s done. I feel better now that I know that the partner I chose to stay with will be someone I can trust. Yes, it was a trust issue and more. The domain and hosting has been up since August last year, and until now we started no projects. It’s a shame. Hopefully, everything will be up and running this April.

Summer is really really here. It’s so hot at noon, but it’s a great thing that come evening, the wind just blows and I can sleep well at night. I hate the heat, I love cold weather. The good thing about summer is that you have an excuse to go to the beach. I hope I can go to the beach this summer. I am hoping that my backpay from my old job comes this month.

And go watch Avril Lavigne’s new video, GIRLFRIEND.
