Here we go again..
November 6, 2007It's been a month since I last posted. Whew! At last, all the puyat nights for exams, cramming times for projects, headaches, depressing moments and all emotions for the 1st semester is finally over.
I had a 1 week vacation and, obviously, I made the most out of it. Monday, my family went to Ocean Adventure at Subic (I tell you the sea lions, dolphins, and the 'false' killer whale were very amazing.). Then we went straight to the hotel to spend the night, where we enjoyed the free wifi (hehe). Tuesday morning, Joy, Ate PM, and I went swimming at the beach. Honestly, I am sooooo afraid of the ocean especially on dark rocky areas because I always imagine that there might be a shark or any weird looking fish under me. Eww.. Anyway, from Wednesday til Friday, I was in the church enjoying the time with my friends there.
Now, my vacation is over, and 2nd semester is coming. Here I go again..
May joke ako :)

Kayo: Achay who?

Yahoo! opens up its APIs for the UPDCS
September 29, 2007On the 10th of October, the UP Department of Computer Science, in partnership with Yahoo! will be holding the "Yahoo! Mini-Hack Event". Yahoo! will 'officially' open up their APIs on October 1 just for the UPDCS. Here, we will get the chance to develop our own application and embed it to one of the web applications of Yahoo! like Yahoo! Mail, Yahoo! Messenger, Flickr, etc. Then on the 10th, Yahoo! Vice President for Product Strategy, Mr. Bradley Horowitz, will come over to our department to award the best application that has been created and probably use it.
Haay..it's really a privilege for us, UPDCS students, to get this opportunity, especially from a prestigious company like Yahoo!. Imagine, if you win the contest, your web application will be seen and be used by millions of people! And do you know that this is the first time that Yahoo! will be holding this kind of event in the Philippines? And they chose the UPDCS for this first-ever event! Super opportunity talaga so let us not waste it. Okie? 
Time First!
September 26, 2007Waaahh!!! Hope I can make ALL the deadlines disappear!..With all the requirements that I have to pass, the MPs that I have to make, the exams that will soon come, all I can say is waaaaahhhh!!!
When I looked at the calendar of activities (or suffering perhaps) that Jen made for us (ni Marie), I can't help but be emotional. As in emotional ha, kasi halo-halong emotions. A part of me is syempre uber sad about it because super tired na. Some part is fearful because I might not finish all those requirements in time. But then, a part of me is some what excited because the sem is near to its end (this one's just to appease myself). Anyway, here is the acad part of my schedule for the remaining days of this semester and a large part of the semestrial break:
September 28 (this friday): CS 150 MP Part 1 Deadline (Thank God and Mam Chris for this!)
October 1: EEE 8 Project Deadline
October 2: CS 140 2nd Exam (and Jen's birthday! Hi jen!)
October 5: EEE 8 Probset Deadline
October 6: EEE 8 3rd Exam
October 7: CS 135 MEs Deadline (as in 24 Problems to solve ha)
October 10: CS 150 MP Part 2 Deadline & Stat 130 Exam (Yen's bday!)
October 15: Stat 130 MP Deadline
October 15 - 19: Super preparation for ACM-ICPC Contest
October 20: ACM-ICPC Contest Proper (Galingan natin Jen!)
October 24: CS 135 Exam
Waahh talaga! Final exams for some subjects are not yet listed here. Super dreadful days are coming..huhuhuhu.. Although I'm still happy and super thankful that I have Marie and Jen in this endeavor. 
Haay..I didn't imagine myself being this busy. But, as my mom said, maybe God is just preparing me for a tough future. Well, it's too late to give up so I think I have no choice but to face this test. I just have to cling onto God's promise that I just have to do my best and, surely, He'll do the rest.
