And it reminds me of when I held your hand And it gives me hope  And maybe I'll make it

The Silver Lining

Image
2 Christmases ago, I received a Graphic Tablet and it's only now that I'm able to use it properly. Well... that's aside from the occasional CAD drafts which actually worked with or without the tablet. I just recently installed a proper free hand drafting program and this is my latest creation. I was able to watch Silver Linings Playbook just recently and I'm currently obsessing about lead actress J.L. and I've watched the movie for more than 4 times now including the recent Hunger Games movie. I feel like a teenager again! *** And I thought you were my Tiffany. Turns out, you were just another Nikki

Funfare

So that was a good way to start the year. XD

Saturday the 14th

Today has less luck than yesterday *** Terrible pretty much sums up my driving. I easily succumb to road rage especially whenever I get cut by a jeepney or a tricycle But today, I had a very humbling if not humiliating experience. Today, for the first time, I get to experience baptism by fire. I hit a motorcycle which I was trying to overtake. If that wasn't bad enough, a girl was driving the motorcycle. I hit her in front of the school. And apparently, she is also a student there. I don't think it's fortunate. -The school guards were there to assist us as I helped her get up. -Injuries were minor and she didn't ask for further help. -She didn't take my number or any offer of my assistance. -Damage to her motorcycle was minimal -The guards took note of our names and student numbers I fear thid would cease to haunt me

Pet Matters

So this girl got lost in our farm in Angeles. Our housekeeper says it followed them from the store to the farm and it stayed there all day watching them clean the place. Truth be told, I want to keep her. The last time we had a pet dog was like 15 years ago and I really miss having a pet dog. She's so friendly, I just want to take her home. But, for te conscience's sake, we'll try to find her owners even though we don't know any of our neighbors there. I'm just hoping she wasn't just abandoned where our housekeeper found her.

Respite

That despite having tried to remove you from my life,  I once again find myself crawling back to the fantasy of wanting to hold you in my arms, and never letting go of weaving dreams around you, and be one with you forever *** A day after completing my required hours of training at a construction site in Q.C., I returned to finish some paper work in the office and get my certificate of completion. I found myself going back on the field where I spent most of my training hours with my supervisor. I saw my fellow trainees being oriented on the tasks that I usually did, and were being taught on the use of the surveying instruments which I usually operated during my stay. Even with just a day's lapse, seeing my fellow trainees there made me wish that I didn't have to leave, to stop training, that maybe I was hoping that would be my permanent job. Or something of that sort.  I had a fruitful 8 weeks on the site but I wasn't able to thank all the people that mad...

Last Supper

Image
Last night, we served our last meal as culinary students for a select number of guests. Among the courses we served was a rack of lamb.  It was my first time dressing a lamb rack so I had 2 minor and 2 major cuts on my left hand.  Anyway, I'm very much looking forward to making better plates.  So definitely, this wouldn't be the last of my involvement in the culinary world.   I'll surely miss messing up the kitchen with these guys!
