Shiny Tezuka

Because I had some time on my hands I decided to color in one of my favorite pages from the Shin Tenipuri manga so far:

Shin Tennis no Oujisama

Volume 5, Chapter 38, Page 9

Shin Tenipuri

Shin Tenipuri, Chapter 50, Page 12

Since today is a special day, here's my birthday gift for Konomi Takeshi, Tennis no Oujisama's epic awesome mangaka! 8DD

Sleepovers

So for the past few days the Philippines experienced Tropical Storm Falcon. And while it didn't have a devastating effect that Ondoy brought, it was still a lot of rain and it still caused floods in several areas. And one of the places that floods frequented was Kai's area in Marikina. So luckily/unluckily enough, I was originally meaning to sleepover at her place last Thursday but due to the heavy rains, turned the tables and she ended up staying with me instead. Until now she's still here with me. Hopefully things die down soon and things come out okay.

ALLS

From Laptop #2 at the Ateneo Learning Laboratory for the Sciences (ALLS), a little room in Faura where I spend most of my free time. Whether it's to surf or to research it's a lot of fun. 8D Right now I'm on said laptop, which is a big relief from having to lug my own laptop to school (since I commute a lot of the time and don't want to bring it along T^T). Hohohohoho.

Thesis stress has still yet to set in. But maybe when Gabby and Paul hand over their stuff, the gears will start turning. Maybe. I dunno. xP For now I think I should start looking for more references to beef up our thesis. If I can find any. @u@

What's fun here is that:
1. The place is airconditioned
2. There's free food - chocolates + hard candy = FTW
3. There's delivery service
4. There's a refrigerator
5. We get to hear stories from the teachers who usually come to work/pass the time and have lots and lots of laughs

That's a lot of positives I think. :D Yei~

Lunch Date

So today I had Saturday morning class. Sucks beans I know, but that's just how the dice rolls I guess. But since it ended early I went to pick up Kai at her place and waited out the lunch rush hour before driving off to Eastwood. And as usual, we spent some interesting time in the arcade. For one thing, Kai got me more animal keychains, hahahaha. AND, while I was playing Virtua Tennis 2, someone challenged me and I beat them twice before some other guy came and trounced me. I do not understand man pride. At all. xD

So yeah! After that the drive home was tedious since it was traffic everywhere. On the upside, I learned a new nifty shortcut. Ho-hum. ~u~

First School Day

It's back to school, back to school time! First day was interesting, but very, very hot. DDDDDx

And as with every new first day, new classmates, new teachers (well, sort of ), and new challenges. So before we even bother going into that (as I don't have the knack to do an all-out blog entry yet, I'll leave things like this for a while.

Anniversaries

A shout out of happy greetings to my parents on their 27th Wedding anniversary today! I'd post pictures to go with this but I can't find any in my stock right now. So there we go. 8D Hope they have a good day today~

A Few More Days

So it's been a few days. I've finished with my OJT with Anino Games, I've paid my tuition for the upcoming semester. Senior year is starting soon and I'm quite inwardly excited to begin. All that's left to bid my summer semester adieu is to get through the Practicum Experience Presentation next Monday then it's thesis, senior year and more thesis. xD Fingers crossed for that!

Nearly Done

I'm in the final stretch. Last two days of OJT before I say goodbye for a year to Anino Games. They've been very hospitable to me as an intern and I'm thankful for all the friends I've made and the experiences I've gained throughout the 8 weeks of my stay here. It's always great to know there's someplace I can come back to and someplace that would love to have me so fingers crossed.

I'll miss working with the QA Dept, but hopefully I'll be back to enjoy more with everyone.

But first I need to graduate. xP
