If you're constipated, drink 2 gallons of water

Feeling somewhat sluggish today (and the whole of last week )...maybe attributed to the lack of excercise perhaps?
Really must get on a fitness program to jump start my waning energy levels.
Speaking of fitness, my dad recently talked with the owner of Hot Rocks (Club 650 in Libis) and the guy, whose name is also Louie (hehe), suddenly bulked up since the last time they saw each other. It turns out he'd enrolled himself at the Club 650 gym. Hmm..didnt know there was a gym there, from what I know, all they had were futsal, badminton and rockclimbing facilities. That's something I might check out, no, I should check out, specially since the gym trainer fee's only 200 Php according to "Louie". Now I dont wanna bulk up and all that like what happened to Century Tuna (tama ba?) endorser Jackie Lou Blanco. Just to get toned, firm muscles ala Naomi Watts in I heart Huckabees
would be nice. Hah as if I'd have the time for that considering all the school work and org stuff.

This blog could also serve as my online assignment notebook (how highschool that sounds) to refer to everytime I need to do an inventory of immediate and future tasks to do)
Such as:

1. Web Programming Project - due in 2 weeks (Progress - 0%)
2. Project Management Deliverable Sept 4

7. Meet with PM of Module Project (sa Philam Makati, fug memories of my OJT. THis time, I WILL bring a car no matter what~~~~~~)
Internal Dialogue - yabang mo kala mo may pambayad ka sa gasolina. De, ok lang si Dad naman gagastos. Hah, bhala ka pagworking ka na di ka marunong mag-budget ng expenses mo, asa lang ng asa sa Dad. SHADDUP.

5. Commit Suicide. No. can. do. according to some moral philosophers, suicide is a morally wrong act in the sense that you abandon your duty towards others in your social network, and moreover your duty to contribute as a citizen of the state. (In socialist republics its a crime to attempt suicide, the state owns you. See what happened to Nina Lugovskaya? She was made to do hard labor..) That's why suicide is a selfish act, an act of self love despite being the end of self. So, no, I will never committ suicide. Besides, I dont want to go to hell.

Argh. So what else? Other than be original and not echo off what's on the news lately,
I shall be redundant and post what's on the news lately. Please allow me to get these off my head. Its the only way I can destress (after cigarettes,alcohol and whatever else). If you have gone this far down in reading my blog, you may have the option to move along, come on now click on that little "x" button at the upper right corner of your window, for from hereon I shall not make much sense besides mimic what's on the dailies and on tv lately and random stuff I've been doing so far. Do yourself a favor =).

Stuff on my mind
1. Pluto's no longer a planet. So what? I may be proud to alive be in this generation who had the opportunity to witness such a historical scientific (cosmological/astrological/solar systematical) event. But what of it? We are empirical creatures who may delight in certain discoveries given our scientific developments but there are so many more mysteries out there that science can only do so much to explain, and that philosophers can only do so much as to speculate and posit theories.

2. Reformatted my HP-Compaq Laptop
Finally got to do this after so long. It was a white elephant sitting on top of the table for 4 months now. Here I am typing on it. As Sir Maguyon said : Backing up is important. That's why I created a separate partition for my media files, so that everytime some Trojan worm/horse/seahorse/wormfish/balalahahla decides to infest my hard drives, I only have to format the OS partition. +++DISCLAIMER: If at this point you have no idea what I am talking about, I shall not be held liable for a moment's waste of your brain space.

3. Project Management
Biggest regret of my life: not taking PM under Sir O***c. But then I had no choice, no more slots left in his class.
Hush child, it will all be over in...sep oct nov dec jan feb SIX months. After that, only then shall I worry about my future. DOOM.
Were testing the modules of a real live government subsidized project. Daunting task, no room for slacking bitches.

4. P&G Test
I took a shot at the P&G Online application test for the student career roadshow. Surprisingly, as an IT person (should be), I chose these top 3 departments, in chronological order:
a. Consumer Market Knowledge (market research, segments, trends)
b. IT (My heart does not lie here, but I've gotta be realistic. Match my qualifications with the Job Desc)
c. External Affairs - dealing with corporate relations, media, etc. (Am I a "PR" person? YEs and No, depending on the people I'm with)

5. Psychic Vampires (Dont know what these are? click--> How to recognise Psychic Vampires)
I realize the need to avoid, or at least minimize the presence of these people in my life. I cant afford to have them suck all the positive energy lifeforce out of me. Who are these people? I have a few of them, but I wont name names. Just that after talking or even just encountering them, I feel so drained, It's the lucid stupor that one gets after waking up from 2 days of sleep induced Valium. Confidence levels drop too, because its as if they over dominate you so much you'd feel reduced to shreds. scrap. basura. hay.

Ok thats enough. If I dont cut this short I may fill up 10++ pages. Till next time.
