Eccentric Baloney

Amusing Creature of my Summer

I had acquainted myself with this one guy I met last summer. He’s a rather accomplished guy who seems to know everything I consider fun. Despite his extraordinary aptitude, the guy doesn’t emit any sign of conceit. A company you’ll never get bored with. He has so much to show and stories to share.

I’m in the middle of my review for my 7:30am major exam later but I insisted on taking a break. I googled his name, found his livejournal blog, and can only smile in amusement. I don’t know him much but every bit of new information about him keeps on surprising me.

** Gosh. I can’t keep my spirit to study! x.x I understand this subject well, but there’s just too many terms to note. Oh, well. I wish myself and all my classmates in CSIT70 goodluck! –,)

he who knows

I only know one person who knows when I’m faking expressions. I didn’t want to look at him in the eyes if I don’t want to be read. My discretion don’t succeed him. It’s not always good because at times I just want to keep it myself. But knowing someone is there who knows I don’t feel right reduces the burden even if I don’t talk to him about it.. I realized that just now. I haven’t seem him in years now. How I wish he could be here to make me feel better. :c

Defining Names

XU soccer field

One Tuesday night, after the ICS 32 class, the gang decided to spend some time together at the soccer field. There were eleven of us. It was the first time we had that kind of moment with the night and the soccer field.

The major discussion we had revolved on creating meanings for our names in relation to our personality or major trait. The arguments were really fun. Some of them were quite surprising especially mine!

Here is the list of the final name extensions:

1. Haifa - laughing

2. Jehson - “nice talking!”; someone who ignores your message/speech for him

3. Vinni - lamo-lamo. (Someone translate this to English!!!); someone who pretends he’s innocent or he doesn’t know

4. Keith - in love

5. Dune - take pictures 

6. Ezra - *loading*; understands slowly

7. Dan - arte (Please translate to English!)

8. Nenette - angry; bad mood; 

9. Varian - mangingilad; trickster 

10. Jerson - patambok; to make oneself fat; to eat

11. Kim - give corny jokes

Am I really the type who always laugh? It’s overwhelming because back in high school they describe me as moody.  :)

Anyway, we’ve been using them a lot lately. One typical use is when a person looks angry, one can just say, “hala! magnenetting najud na siya karon.”. Or if someone doesn’t get the point of what you’re saying, you can say, “Ezra ba kaayo nimo uy!”. Or if anyone gives a corny joke, anyone can say “Kiming……”. –,)

Cheez Whiz Break

I hated Cheez Whiz. Now, I’m wiping out the remaining bulks inside the 220g bottle with a slice bread. Sorry for the term “bulk”. I can’t think of any other words. I’m on my break because I’m hungry. It’s Midterms week. I’m into CSIT70 now, advance database. 

I remember my first taste of Cheez Whiz was with monay(the bread name). I forced myself into it. Why? I dunno. Later on, it didn’t matter if the bread filling is Cheez Whiz or not. 

Just a thought while I was making iced tea, I found it stupid to say “that was the greatest internship ever”. Regular undergraduate student only have ONE internship. At least, that’s what I know. Then, I realized, a person can take many courses, thus, having more than one internship. Complexity sure does confuses.

Talk about complexity, human behavior is one to represent this. Psychology or astrology generalizes one’s behavior.. but can they really predict the person’s next move base on that? I wonder.

I just finished watching the movie What a Girl Wants(2003). I find it predictable and corny. Plus, I don’t like the lead actress. But moments later I end up searching movies of Amanda Bynes to watch. Someone explain this crooked behavior.

I’d like to mention that just now I learned one important note on data declaration in MySQL vs PostgreSQL. 

MySQL:   id int NOT NULL auto_increment
PostgreSQL: id SERIAL

That simple!

Plus! Another thing important to mention, this character / is called SLASH (or  FORWARD SLASH) while this \ is called BACKSLASH. Varian made a clear statement once but I didn’t take it seriously. Encarta Dictionary concluded his argument. I had the tendency to interchange them. Now it’s clear.

Staring at the Sky

Staring at the sky at night has become my habit. It is as if the sky has its own set of spells in freezing time to make me feel alone and enjoy its vastness and beauty.

Weeks ago during an outdoor photoshoot, I shouted at impulse that the moon was moving fast. Seconds later I was told it wasn’t the moon but the clouds. True. Why haven’t I thought of it? Nevertheless, it was my first time to see the sky move that way. There was suspense to it. I love it.  

With Xang’s information, I saw the moon in its orange color few days ago. Staring at it made me think I was in a horror movie. The moon was creepy but beautiful.
