which one are you?

I’ve been meaning to write a post for quite sometime now, but I’m actually really busy at work. I’m assigned to handle a new project and I must say quite amazed at myself that I was able to really focus on it. (hehehe) There are still a lot of things to do for that project, but me being able to do something from scratch in such a short period of time is an accomplishment enough in itself, which makes all the busy-ness worthwhile. Additionally, Cel and Jam and I have been quite busy planning our team’s tagaytay trip… yeah its fun to do, but it really takes up quite a huge amount of effort and time. Another thing that I must mention here… I just made a huge decision regarding my career path just a few days ago. Everyone in our team knows that I am one of the many people that's really very anxious to move to another team/role… but with the changes that has happened and are still happening to our team, I’ve been getting second thoughts. Hence, the decision to stay. A very busy and eventful week I must say.

Moving on, the thing that I've been wanting to blog about is something that I/our team has experienced a few weeks back. Problems and challenges are a big part of our lives, be it a problem with relationships, work, personal and many, many more. It is not how many times a person faces a problem that is important but it is how he/she handles or faces it.

Which makes me wonder, does the way we handle a problem somewhat defines our character?

Some people when faced with a problem, become even stronger and tougher. They stick to what is is right and fight fairly and honestly. Some people on the other hand, fight fire with fire... an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Lastly, some other people, they just give up. Make some kind of lame-ass excuse then just vanish from the face of the earth.

I would like to think that I belong to the first group… how about you?

more than meets the eye

I never thought that I would be interested in a movie about robots! But there we were, last Saturday, we watched Transformers… and I loved, loved, loved, loved, loved it! hehehehe! After the movie I kept asking turon about the names of the robots… I guess I bugged him so much that he told me to look it up in wikipedia already! Nyahahaha! So, this is the result of my research:

The first five are the AUTOBOTS

Optimus Prime – Peterbilt 18-wheeler Truck

Bumblebee – Chevrolet Camaro

Jazz – Pontiac Solstice

Ironhide – GMC Toppick 6500 pick-up truck

Rachet – Search and Rescue Hummer H2


Then there are the DECEPTICONS


Megatron – Cybertronian jet

Starscream – Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor

Blackout – Sikorsky MH53 Pave Low II

Frenzy – Boombox

Barricade – Saleen 5281 Ford Mustang police car


Oh well, that’s enough boy stuff for me. We watched the movie at Trinoma, on the reclining seats (aka Lazy Boy) 250 per person. It’s kinda hidden, so when you buy your tickets you have to ask for the reclining seats first from the ticket person… (err… whatever they are called). It was okay, only thing though is that, the seats smelled like it just came out of the cabinet. Ehehe. I guess that’s because they are still new. So anyway, watch the movie! I enjoyed it so much that i even forgot about all the things that I'm supposed to do at work! Hehehehe!
