14th December, 2009. 11:22 pm. Rabbit adventures.

Pampered - that was the word the vet used to describe my bunnies. Cute and pampered. Well, Mukuro more than Tsuna, because I dunno how the assistant managed it, but he successfully cradled Mukuro against the crook of his elbow like he was cradling a baby. Mukuro was on his back and he stayed still long enough for Dr. Donato to trim his nails.

Trufax cute. Should have taken a picture. Tsuna needs a makeover or something if people keep focusing on Mukuro when the reason I got rabbits in the first place was because I wanted a Tsuna.

Also, I died a little to hear him complimenting my rabbits. He's an awesome vet, and to hear him implying that they're well taken care of... >w<)

Then again, I pay more than 1k per visit for consultation and nail trimming and medicine and whatever. Of course they're pampered.

There was a huge Airedale Terrier just roaming around the clinic, and a gorgeous Cocker Spaniel with beautiful wavy fur long enough to brush against the floor, and a tiny Chihuahua small enough to fit in her owner's cloth handbag. The spaniel might have been believable, but I never thought that I'd see an Airedale here. ._. Visiting this clinic is making me wish that I'd studied to be a veterinarian instead, and maybe I might have gotten to work with these wonderful people.

Instead, I get to stalk them from afar via regular check-ups. Lol, who the heck brings tiny Netherland Dwarf Rabbits on regular check-ups?

Current mood: cheerful.
Current music: .___. Layton 2 tea brewing BGM.

My implementation is now working. Yay! I can even use GnuPG in my laptop to encrypt my confidential files ( any files I want, even pictures).. haha. Cool.

another cool design concept:

13th December, 2009. 2:12 pm. The Climb

I just watched Hannah Montana. I just got interested watching it on a Sunday afternoon. I was surprised. The story inspired me.

I agree with the moral of the story. We should not let anyone destroy our dreams no matter how impossible it may seem. Get real. Be true. Keep on believing. :)

Keep on moving.. Keep on climbing.. It's all about the climb. Keep the faith.

Here's a video of the song in the movie: The Climb by Miley Cyrus. This made my day. :)



The Climb lyrics
Songwriters: Alexander, J; Mabe, J;


I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa

12th December, 2009. 9:26 pm. A Busy But Happy Mid December

It's been a busy midweek for me. I'm glad I was able to do all my tasks (though I had to work even on a Saturday which is today). I just hope everything will be ok on our release tomorrow/Monday for PCI Compliance. Good news by the way, is that part of the PCI compliance release is now in Production. The next release is what I've been doing this week. I've been studying GnuPG for more than a day so I can secure the keys we are using to encrypt/decrypt our customers' confidential data like credit card numbers, CVV, etc. Hopefully, what I have done is correct and will eventually pass the auditors' standards. *cross fingers*

We were also able to release Outbound Email and Data Conversion to UAT. I'm still waiting for Sam's heads up so we can release it to Production and those will be a BIG release so we need to make it sure it's fully tested. There are still more to come and the coming days will be busy. But I'm still hoping I can relax little by little during the Christmas break. I really want to spend a meaningful Christmas with my family and friends without worrying a lot about work. I also want to complete the Simbang Gabi (I was doing it since 2007).

On the lighter side, REAP celebrated its Christmas party last week in JMES. I'm glad that we were able to make the children happy. Actually, the children made us even happier. They were so participative. They are so bright. They are so talented. They even performed a dance number for us.

Here's one souvenir picture:



I also played badminton last Saturday with Brij, Karen, Sir Gentrie and Ms. Kim (after the Christmas party). Afterwards, we had dinner at the Fort. I bought an IQ puzzler in Hobbes and Landes and we played with it in Krispy Kreme.



The next day, I attended the Sunday Mass and a seminar for Legionaries in our Church. Fr. Memeng had a spiritual talk during the seminar. Ate Jen also visited us at home. We spent time playing the IQ puzzler before she went home. I accompanied her until we reach Sangangdaan and I went to see Anthony in Trinoma to watch "New Moon".

Last Wednesday, I attended the Immaculate Conception Mass in our parish. The next day, I went to Margaret's birthday party. I watched again a movie with Anthony. We watched "The Paranormal Activity" at SM North Edsa. That movie really scared me. :P


That's all. God bless everyone and have a nice week ahead.

12th December, 2009. 12:59 am. So says the pansy.

Tagged by [info]bloody_writer83

FIRST: If you've been tagged, you must write your answers in your own LJ and replace any question that you dislike with a new, original question.
SECOND: Tag eight sexy people. Don't refuse to do that like a pansy.

I think I've seen this on my f-list a lot, though. )


I dunno why people around me keep saying that Reborn's been sucking lately. I mean, is it that hard to just enjoy it for what it is? Also, hello, sexy. I'm way too excited about the fact that it's the real Mukuro standing there to care that the illusionary tactic he pulled isn't new. I mean, it's what he does best, right? Troll the enemy by creating dummy allies for them to beat around and stand back and laugh at them when they realize that they've been had.

Hibari: Done yet? Who said you could do all the killing?
Ryohei: Is the illusion thing over?
Bel: We waited ten seconds because you asked! You crap-head frog!
Lussuria: How dare you go over by thirty whole seconds!

I love that they sound so united in their outrage.

Current mood: anxious.
Current music: FF9 battle music.

4th December, 2009. 10:58 pm. Bad and Happy Days

This is the first time our team wasn't able to follow through our commitment. This is really a bad day. We really need to do a post-mortem on Monday. This should not happen again. *Sigh* We we're doing a regression testing of our staging server for 3 days but still, we didn't make it. We can't push the production release (though we already finished the testing) because it's already morning in US (some thing might go wrong). Hopefully, on Monday, we can release successfully.






Anyway, I still have my weekends to relax. Good thing I was able to have a vacation last week because it's thanksgiving day in US last Thursday and Friday. Last weekend too, I went to Zambales with my friends and ex-officemates. Thanks Sally for inviting me. Thanks guys for the fun and happy weekend. :) I really enjoyed your company.

Thanks also to Glenn and Mong for the birthday treat in Tong Yang SM Megamall.

And I also received a good news: my Bamboo Fun already came. I can't wait for Dennis P. to arrive so I can try it. Yey! Thanks Dennis P.
