I JUST APPRECIATE IT

I'm back. I wasn't able to update my blog regularly. There's a lot of thing to be written in here and share it with you but I was too busy last few months. I just started school and it's almost a month already. That's was funny when I first entered my classroom because, in majority, I am 4 years older than them. Of course, I am not in their level, my age proves it. Most of them called me "kuya". When I hear that word, I always feel like... yeah I am older than them. But I did not put too much emphasis in my age. I am learning how could I be friendly to them. I know one who is very talkative... she's a girl, my classmate and has a baby. She kept on asking me a lot of questions. Most peope who already knew me being silent most of the time and I admit that I am the one but last few weeks I've learned to start any conversation. So, I having fun learning how to be close to other people.

Last semester, there were subjects that I really loved - the Logic, that's correct reasoning from incorrect reasoning. Math subject is not new to me, even though I felt that it's hard sometimes but I enjoy them. Filipino, Chemistry will follow the list. But one subject that urges my mind to think was the Psychology. I really appreciated how our instructor teach us. I found some similarities with this to Logic. I always loved the idea of learning something new.

More about me. Well, we just moved from our current residence where free lodging offered to us and that was almost 4 years. My sister just started her high school here and she use to stay with us with my brother. So, we decided to move to another boarding house where we pay an amount every month. I really don't like the idea of staying somebody's house, it's a blessing however but as long as we are able to pay the monthly obligation, then we go for it. I can't imagine how life would be going. We, three, wake up in the morning, getting ready for work and school. During the night, I go to school. It seems like "no time for conversation". Everything is fine so far - no misunderstanding -- yet. It's always comfortable living in a place where we are paying for the lodge.

I'll cut it here, 'til next time.

MULTI-TASKING

I am have had trouble with my subjects last few days. I wonder what brought me this irritated thing. Two things that I am thinking right now - not motivated to study and laziness. I am not happy regarding the result of the test that we had last few days and I hate myself because of that. I always wanted to know new things but sometimes going back to the things that I've learned already is boring. There are some subjects that I got interested into but I can't put my mind studying the lesson - there is no PEACE in me; I am thinking so many things at one time. My mind is always in multi-tasking mode and that is very stressful. This is how I function in our workplace - as a cashier - our company is not fully organized yet, so we didn't assign individual to an specific responsibility; as a timer - responsible of taking records of time-in / time-out of customers' rentals; as an encoder or a typist - I think this is my main function but only few customers would let us do the typing jobs. Most people are learning to do the typing jobs by their own; as a computer technician - very interesting and I am still learning about it. I have attended training about PC troubleshooting but still, as the continuous innovation of technology, I need to upgrade my learning too - I called it a non-stop learning; as a graphic artist - I'm not an expert and still I am in the learning process. The abovementioned are enough proofs of multi-tasking. Of course, not all of those could be done at one time. Two or three could be done simultaneously.

I SHOULD POST SOMETHING

I just visited my blog today and have noticed that I've posted my last post last February 25. It's almost a year. If this - blogging is my priority, then I'll be posting new posts daily but it's not like other people do.

I really missed blogging, although sometimes I don't have any ideas to post about. Well, my life is going well. A lot of changes took place in different aspects of life. I keep on thinking about learning something. I can't live with this world with no experiences - empty brain. There is always a privilege that I can fill up my brain and apply all of those in daily lives. I always refer my current life to a quote that goes "learn everything you can, from anyone you can and from anytime you can". This is really true. Every time I wake up, I can learn something through different circumstances, it's either in emotions or in academic.

As of now, I am doing something related to school requirements for college in our place. At first, I hesitate to pursue my plan but I thought it's the time. I can't wait until the next school year. I have referred my plans to other people so that I can have some ideas. Until now, I am thinking how things will work out - work during day and do school at night. I am thankful that I only have four (4) subjects in this semester. Saturday and Sunday has classes to night-students like me, for the major subject. But this time, I don't have my major yet. I'll be taking it next year. So, some of my old schedule on Saturday and Sunday will not be affected. Some people say, "why you need to go to school, while you have more". I know some people in the campus and they know where I am working. I have thought that before and yes I have more but nothing proves it. My skills and experiences? Yes! but I can do more with confident if I have both - degree or any certificate plus skills and experiences.

I'll be posting more soon.

HELP! MY IMPORTANT FILES ARE GONE

My friend asked me to install some applications to his computer. So, I went to his house last Saturday. I have noticed that there's a lot error messages popped up and some files are corrupted. We have agreed about reformatting. So, we've reinstalled the new Windows XP. Then, we started installing the drivers and utilities. I got a 1G flash drive and important files, installers, etc. were in there. I need to insert that in so that I can access the applications to be installed. Bang! I've inserted in a wrong port and my flash drive stopped working, I mean, the computer cannot detect it. It works well on our computers. The bad port of my friend's computer embarrassed me. I just wanted to install just one application from my flash drive, just one, just one! I thought flash drives are reliable enough than CD's/DVD's. I've done just one move and my files are gone.

Creating back-up files is always a good idea. I'll do it, promise!
