Wednesday, July 27th, 2005

    One down….two to go!!! i’m playin no villainous character in any movie but i really feel like sayin this today!!!hehehe…why???coz I’ve got two more examination days to go and phew!i’ll be done!!(at least for the prelims.LOL!!)

     We had Physics and Object-oriented programming exams today. Tomorrow’s gonna be another day of "compilation"…testing if all that we’ve "encoded" into our brains these past few weeks have been in proper "syntax".

    So….i gotta split now.Got some more stuff to "encode" into my brain for tomorrow’s exams. hehe.

    May God be with us all. Let’s ask Him to help us remember all that we’ll be studyin’/reviewin’. :)
    Good day!!!

it’s exam week!!!

    Wow!! Time flies sooooooo fast. It seems only a week
ago when we had our first meeting with our instructors. Before I know
it…it’s examination week already! Creepy. Time seems so be in a hurry
these days. It’s as if it’s rushing towards something. The identity of
that ’something’, I don’t think I’d wanna know.hehehe!!! Whatever it
is, I hope it’s somethin we’d all like. (DUH?!)
    Gotta go now…gotta study for the "most-anticipated
part of this term…the examinations"…*lightning…BOOOOOOOOOM!!! au
revoir!

FANTASTIC FOUR was fantastic!!!

Sunday, July 24th, 2005

    Yeah yeah…karon lang ko kita ani…hehe!!! Couldn’t blame me,though. Go check my sched and check out my list of to do’s for school..I’m certain you’d understand.lol!!! Karon lng jud ko "slightly" free. :):):)

    Well,the movie was amazing. Fantastic,indeed!!! I loved all the characters. Torch was hot!! Sizzzzlin hot! weheheh!! And he was wildly funny,too. But he was sooo childish..so sure of himself and overly carefree..hmm..well,can’t do nothin..(sugo sa director,eh!!!wahahaha!!).

    One could tell by the look of the ending (after "THE END" was flashed on screen), that there would be a sequel to the movie. With that worker’s tablet PC fluctuating, and Doom’s right hand flashing that knowing look..one could tell. It was as if Doom was only being quiet for the moment, trying to amass power or something. But dang, it doesn’t take a genius to know there’s definitely goin to be a part 2 for this (even if no hint was shown on the ending). Every movie like this one usually has sequels..ain’t i right? ;)

The DaVinci Code…the church’s foe?or friend?

Sunday, July 24th, 2005

    Dan Brown is a prodigy…if not a genius…that’s for sure.The Da Vinci Code was really amazing,just as what evreybody says it is. Great unexpected twists. And just as the San Francisco Chronicle had said, "…if this novel doesn’t  get your pulse racing, you need to check your meds…"

    True enough, I was really totally enthralled each time I’d stop to open a page and read. It was like Iteleported to the Louvre in Paris..it felt like I was in the plane with Langdon and  Neveu on their flight to London..(What was that all about???Go read the book…). Every twist was unexpected. Every discovery was shocking. Every page was pure fun.

    Two things intrigued me about Da Vinci Code…the book itself, plus the speculation around me that if one reads this book, his/her faith towards Catholicism is sure to fade and eventually peter out. These two things drove me to really go and get a copy of the book.

    If one reads this book, his/her faith would surely  falter…that’s an interesting hypothesis. It really was for me that I decided to go see for myself. And what did I find out after reading the book? Hmm…I gotta be honest…at first I said "WOW!!!"…then I asked "What now?". Has my faith faltered??? I wasn’t sure,really. It was days of contemplation before I fin’lly said to myself…."hey,this is what it is…a novel…". In a novel, some things may be factual…but the rest goes in accordance to its creator’s imagination and  scrutiny. And so threrfore a lot of the stuff would be fictional…illusory..and some could even be erroneous. It all depends on the author…

    The author…I realized…why not read about the author..Is he against the church??Is he an ally of any org who’s tryin to spoil the church’s image??? And so, I searched about Dan Brown. and I found out that he is none of those things. I also found out that the book was not anti-church…it was not anti-anything. It was written to give what readers and bookworms seek in reading…entertainment..amusement. What even surprised more me was that he said that after The Da Vinci Code’s release, a couple of religious people (I’m talkin priests and nuns here) actually came to him and thanked him!!! THanked him??? I was like "woh…I feel like missin somethin here…". Brown said that those religious people thought it was a good thing that he released the book cause it gave Christians a chance to look into their faith…to examine areas of their religion. Doing so would help them understand more about what they need to understand about the church. And in the process, strengthen their faith (not weaken it). And with that I was relieved…totally relieved…coz I found certainty on the purpose of the book(not that I was oblivious to that before…). It’s just that it was slapped on my face…and good…coz it needed to be..and I thanked God it was(slapped on my face,that is).Cause if it wasn’t, I could’ve been one of those people who claim to have had their faith lessened after reading the book.

sumthin’s up…

Saturday, July 23rd, 2005

WOw!!! i’m writin somethin here…somethin’s up,eh??? hmm…sort of…
askin what??? love(?), "viral" dreams(again?!?), school, politics, and the list could go on…but hey im not really gonna talk about all, but only a couple of those.lol!!!

    well,love…hmmph…as far as I’m concerned love has been very confusing these days. Ok lemme put love and "viral" dreams together coz where I’m concerned, they "often" go together (hmm..and let’s change love to infatuation…coz I think that’d be more like it.). I couldn’t fathom what it really is(dreams, I mean). As some of my friends might know, there’s been this someone who I dream about today, and I automatically see the next day. (Wierd?Dang,it is!!!) It’s been a long time since I’ve last seen him (if one week or two falls in the category of "a long time" then count it in.).

    This is what happened.. last Wednesday, I dreamed about him again (after "a long time"), and yes…Thursday morning, I saw him. Thursday night, I dreamed about him…and yes you guessed it right…I saw him again Friday. It reeeeeeeeally made me ask "What the heck is this?!?" once again. (mind you, I asked myself that question a zillion times during the earlier part of this confusing episode of my life). I mean, to whom else does this happen to….dreamin about someone today/tonight..and seeing that someone the next day??? To whom else??? If it happens to you,please tell me so I won’t feel alone. LOL!!!

    I often thought this whole ‘dreamin about the virus’ thing was long over. What’s even weirder are the dreams itself. They depict a me-and-him…(kakatakot!!!kakaloka!!!)Why? Coz there could never be a me-and-him..di pwede…cannot be cannot borrow one..bwahahah!!!hai nlng!!!(dont bother askin why…use ur embedded coco shell!)

    Well, thank God I’m not that confused and bothered anymore about this stuff. Before, it was sort of a dilemma for me. The question "What the heck is this?!?" reeeally reeally haunted me everyday. I woke up with that question in mind plus the urge to find an answer to it. But now??hmm… I don’t know…maybe I should just wait…wait for the answer to come to me…wait for the "virus" to be completely deleted from my system…wait for fate to answer the questions running in my mind(and probably in your mind)  I have this feeling it’ll be a long time before it’d be answered,though. But it doesn’t matter…coz I have more important things to attend to than just getting engrossed in a quest with an uncertain ending.So that’s what I’d do…wait(either for sumthin,or for nothin.Wutevah!).

p.s.
the virus deletion progress was 99.98 percent na sana…but with this dreamin thing happenin again… i’m afraid it’s gone back to 99.97…(Is there ever a data deletion that runs backwards??? sa akoa,naa!!! wahahahah!!!) hay buhay…talaga namang makulay!!!
