Starting 17 I feel a little cold and slowly I'm catching a fever but still I managed to finished a project module. It started last week, the bridge going in our apartment was under repair so I have to walk a long way through the breezing night. On Saturday, when I left the apartment I took a bath I taught I was tough but I guess I'm not so on Sunday I got a fever the same with Monday and it was going up and down (thanks to the medication) but it's not the usual I knew something was wrong internally and it was not hard to notice that it was my tonsilitis gosh it hurts (thanks to encyclopedia 2009), finally figure out what's wrong so I went to 2 hospitals Tuesday Infirmary @UPLB (Just general checkup) and HealthServ at LB(I just want a drug prescription). I was taking carbocistine and cefalexin and the doctors it right. And they changed it to amoxiclav about(Php51 x 3)/day ouch :-) cost much. I just hope that it can eliminate the irritating feeling in my tonsil. Today, 21 I'm @the office I'm feeling good but I know it's not 100% so I'll be extra careful about my body :-). Right I should start taking care of myself I'm getting old :)). But I was happy in a way I got myself a visitor hahaha thanks for the lugaw ang orange :)).

I've had a long vacation last December. I've started it by joining my GF in Subic. We've visited Ocean Adventure and Zoobic Safari (see my photo post here: http://czetsuyatravel.blogspot.com/2009/01/zoobic-safari_06.html, http://czetsuyatravel.blogspot.com/2009/01/ocean-adventure_6511.html). Well, I always love the cat family so I was captivated by the white tigers beauty it was so cute... I wish I could pet them... I want I cat huhuhu (I lost my bestfriend cat a year ago :-(). Ocean adventure was also great, I love the cute dolphin which you can look at my above post, they are smart.

After that I spent most of my vacation in our house, my gf's house, Festival mall Alabang and in my relatives in Cavite. In our house we built a table tennis, set it up there and we played... Unfortunately, on the new years eve it was raining waaa we plan to play the whole night (BTW it was always raining this vacation, it ruined most of our plans).

In Festival mall I was looking for an airsoft gun shop and luckily I found one at the 4F unfortunately, even though I wanted to buy they offer no warranty so I did not buy, but I really wanted to buy :D maybe a sniper type or M85 pistol, it's ok with me.

Then I asked my father to buy me a violin in Recto or somewhere there cause I know I can save money there luckily compared to 4K in Festival stores I bought mine at a reasonable price of Php1700, year your right it's cheap but there's no difference compared to the ones sold at malls, it's awesome... Unfortunately, I don't know how to play violin huhuhu I still can't get it to play a sound :(( oh teach me please :-(. I did also study playing piano compared to violin I can play this device and I'm getting better :-). I wish I have more time to play them.

With my brother we also enter the old but still still appealing world of Diablo II Expansion, he's character is a barbarian and mine is a assassin. We're having a hard time with Diablo but we manage to passed through :-).

What else did I do last vacation hmmmm... well I'll just write them next time :-)...

What: Windows Mobile Training
Where: MK2, Makati
When: Dec 15-16, 2008

I though I was gonna missed this one but here I am :-). I was late, I don't know who the instructor is but I appreciate the topics. Although I am familiar with the technologies being discussed it still teaches me new approach or new things I can develop plus I like the instructor he entertains my every single question :-).

Discussions focuses on developing windows mobile application using SOAP or WSDL technology and it's quite entertaining :-).

Yes it's logical when a training is being sponsored by a company an equivalent bond should be rendered. I agree with that. But how about this case... my case. I've been working with this company and there was a time when I was introduced with this telco client... And the day comes when this client sponsored a free training for Windows Mobile and i was the one who received the invitation. I've registered in their portal, I think that's why and that portal is public even you can register. My company was also invited by globe and they ask me to attend. Yes I did want to attend, why not? It's free anyway. Example I validated the invitation a week ago and I never heard anything about bound from my boss. The training is schedule Monday and suddenly yesterday night I've received this training clause and I was surprised how they come up with a training price and a bound. I'll show you the equation:

2 day free training = 1 year bond or else pay 8000 (training fee) + 500 transpo.

I was surprised but because I don't want to cause any trouble I signed and that time don't know anything... foolish... But today I'm asking advice of my friends and I've found out that it's not supposed to be. If there are money spent on the training then that's the only time you will be bond or pay an amount...

If I remember right it was last last week when an old friend of mine invite to me to become one of the test subject in this experiment :-) he didn't provide any details aside from the fact that the event is sponsored by time magazine. I though it was workdays and I'm thinking of an excuse in using my VL so upon hearing the invitation I replied yes, hoping to meet the old gang :-)... And then I heard nothing from him again... Then last friday 2008.12.12 I've received a text and a call, asking if I'll be available today which is Saturday for the photo shoot... yes I wanted to go but I was surprised to hear that it will be held in Diliman and rendevouz time is 4:30am... I was shocked :-), specially when I realized that it's not just an ordinary photo shoot... as the title states UP Oblation... yes you'r right we are to wear nothing bwahahahaha... I was really glad I didn't take the chance to post in their even though ahem I have the body... (just agree with it) :-) or else somebody might get mad and cut the oblation THING out of me... hahahaha... anyway I hope you guys enjoy :-)....

Another year end and everyone is talking about their wish lists. And because I'm finished with my module I have the time to write mine:

1.) if release original CD of StarCraft2 :-)
2.) if release again original CD of Diablo3 :-)
3.) two words music sheet
4.) interesting novels, ung suspense - such as nancy drew or Peter Straub as the author
5.) elizabethan poem or any literature type
6.) new anime episodes to watch or manga to read
7.) something interesting to read or watch :-)
8.) tennis bag :-)

Compared to smartbro prepaid I can say that globe visibility is about 3-5x faster, and yes it's faster than dial up... I wonder when will smart/globe provide a broadband here... Just inquired months ago and they tell me that the place is not yet covered with internet huhuhu... poor place...
