just before 2012 A.D.

the year 2011 is ending in a few hours. it’s great that after all the difficulties, i got to spend the last days of the year with closest and dearest friends.

after tuesday’s 77 gathering, i invited deo for lunch after 5 or 6 years on thursday. and yes, it was great meeting her again. spending about 3 hours after 6 years of not seeing each other? awesome.

that night, despedida dinner for iris and napster then year ender videoke. i could have been more energetic but i think it was the lingering problems at work that brought me down when we were waiting for our turn at centerstage. good thing i was high enough during the day and the party ended with quite a blast. well, pretty unceremonious parting at the taxi but i was never good at goodbyes. and i think the taxi driver enjoyed the tip.

friday was rest day. night was a different story. g69 Christmas party. projector nba 2k12 and barrel pirate game with tequila.

this afternoon, after reschedules, i got to meet with best for a few minutes. short and sweet. i got the 2 kilos of dilis and gave her her small gifts.

some file sync, twitter, facebook, and ym today, maybe check jeff’s blog later, i’ll reserve the rest of the pc maintenance thing tomorrow morning. i think i already covered much of what’s to be done on the new pc yesterday and today.

the year ends with me with my parents and the razons. we just got home from hearing Mass. maybe ate will call later. i love happy endings. well, it’s just a change of calendar year, but it still is an end of something.

i think it’s about time for that certain shade of green. no more excuses. it’s soon gonna be 2012 A.D.

pc-69/i5-pc

tanghali, nabili ko na ang mga sumusunod:

  • coolermaster silentpro m700
  • asus p8p67 le
  • intel core i5 2500k
  • g-skill ripjaws 2x4gb ddr3 1333
  • coolermaster v8

natapos din. hindi ko maikwento ang bawat detalye. nakakapagod. nakakakaba. sa ngayon, nag-i-install na ako ng windows sa bago kong pc.

kaninang hapon naman, sa opisina, kahit sa text man lang, nakagawa ako ng lakad para bukas. hindi pa ako kinakabahan. pero malamang, bukas, panic mode na.

kanina hapon iyon sa opisina. hapon lang ako sa opisina dahil tulog ako noong umaga. mga alas-dos na ata ako nakauwi mula sa aming pagtitipon nina john, cara, rachel at sunny.

incoherent ako ngayon. sa pagod siguro at saya. kailangang huminga nang malalim. at maghugas ng kamay. medyo madumi dahil sa trabaho.

sa lunes, balik na ang pressure sa opisina. kailangang tamasahin ang mga araw na ito. sa totoo lang, nagsimula na nga uli. maswerte ako at may mga maaasahan ako sa opisina tulad nina sir jonas at tristan. kung tutuusin lahat sila.

timog in a while

arrived late at work today, 6 minutes after 9, and took the afternoon off. left the office around 2pm, after subway lunch. got harry potter dvds on the way home and slept through the afternoon. got the text that my request at pc express has arrived. will have to get it tomorrow. will be off to timog/tomas morato area in a few minutes. easy times.

new pc tomorrow or on thursday. with how i felt when i was walking to rcbc tower before lunch, i think i need more physical activities this coming year. maybe arnis? maybe airsoft? quidditch?

pasok pagkatapos ng Pasko

8:41 ang login ko kanina sa opisina. matagal ko na ring hindi nagawa yun.

relax mode. medyo nakakahiya nga kay tristan at sa mech cubicle kasi after 1pm, pagita-gitara kami ni iris. maya-maya, ina-access ko na ang home pc, nagdo-download at nag-i-install ng printer/scanner drivers, nagtitingin ng lumang mga retrato, at nagcha-chat.

hindi ako nag-halfday dahil di natuloy ang lakad namin nina cara at hindi na rin ako tumuloy sa pagpunta kay best. bukas na lang ang malate friends at sa friday ang best friend. baka bukas na lang. iniwan ko na rin muna si gina sa opisina kasi mukhang papasok pa rin ako sa umaga.

pagkaalis nang bago mag-6, at dahil wala namang pupuntahan, dumaan ako sa pcx at binili ang internal memory card reader. sa waltermart, dumaan akong grocery para sa ilang items. marami na ring wwjd sa pcbs at ganun na lang ang tuwa ko. sayang, sana pala bumili ako ng backup pero ayos lang din kasi para mas alagaan ko ang binili ko para sa akin. nakabili rin ako para ipanregalo.

may pizza mula kay ninang edna pagdating pero malamang bukas ng umaga ko na lang kakainin. paksiw na lechon ang ulam kanina. panalo. after-dinner snack, tinoast na doritos dahil kumunat. sinamahan ng cheez whiz para mabawi ang alat. uminom ng coke dahil masarap. next week, dapat makabalik na ako sa healthy eating. walang junk food at softdrinks.

mahirap pero fulfilling ang pagsetup ng card reader sa cm 690 ii. kaso hindi pa magagamit. sinubukan ko kung gumagana dito sa x3-pc at gumana naman nung naitama ko ang pagkabit sa usb header. sablay lang, hindi kayang ilagay sa centurion 5. oh well. mukhang pang-fdd lang talaga yung 3.5 bay nito. may card reader naman yung hp aio.

maraming mini-adventure ngayong araw na ito. pero ang pinakamalupit, sa panahon ng ka-Paskuhang ito, naramdaman ko ang mapatawad at magpatawad. ang sarap.

Pasko na sa wakas

malapit na ring matapos ang araw. palagay ko, masaya naman ako ngayong Pasko. ito nga, kahit simple lang, ang pinakamasayang araw sa taong ito.

Maligayang Kaarawan Jesus.
