I cleared SWCWD! Yey :)

This afternoon, I cleared SCWCD 5 in my first try. :) I am so so happy. My score was only 81%. Normally, I wouldn't be ecstatic with such a score, but considering that I have been away from Java web development for more than a year already, this is a major feat. I am so so happy.

At exactly one year ago: Accenture!

I can still remember myself, at the same day and month, one year ago. I remember having a bad dream after I woke up that morning. The nightmare was so vivid that I can still remember it up to now. I dreamt that my own mother had beheaded me. I dreamt that my spirit was looking at my own severed head. It was so terrifying, it was probably the only dream I can recall where I had died. And then I looked up the meaning of this dream in an online dream dictionary...

See the entry for "Head"

At exactly one year ago, I was among the hundreds of people that Accenture Philippines had laid off. It was really sad and things just happened so fast.

What a dream. How very accurate... this is one of those experiences where I believe that humans have intuition and can actually feel or see part of the future in symbols through dreams.

Samsung ST550: My gift to myself



This month I bought a Samsung ST550 digital camera. I am extremely satisfied with it.

It is 12 MP and it has an LCD both at the front and at the back.

I bought it at a really cheap price: just almost 14K pesos at Kimstore.

The next time I will buy a gadget, I will buy it at Kimstore.

I remember my mother series: 3. Fake apologies.

I remember my mother telling me...

"Sorry, kung feeling mo may nagawa akong mali..."
(Sorry, if you feel I did something wrong...)

She almost killed me and all, and then this is the only thing she has to say...
This is basically an offensive verbal attack disguised as an apology.

I just want to say that whenever someone apologizes to you along these lines, never ever accept it. The sincerity of this person is dubious to say the least.

It is the equivalent of saying:

"I believe that I did nothing wrong to you. But sorry anyway, if that is what you want to hear..."

Anybody who apologizes in this manner should be rejected and not be trusted.
