no exercise

I've been thinking about getting back in shape. Well I've been thinking about it for quite a while already and I still haven't got myself to start working out again. I always find an excuse not to go - work, busy, lazy etc. How do I kickstart this again???

watched new moon

Chase and I finally got to watch New Moon yesterday. It was as I expected - not too good, not too bad either. Unfortunately for us, there were two girls seating a sit to my right, who apparently #1 - read the book already so one of the girls kept on telling what happens next, #2 - were both fanatics I would say, kaya kinikilig all the way!! Kulang na lang tumili. Well, I guess I was expecting it, I did watch @ SM anyway.

finally - some excitement!

After weeks of waiting, and waiting... I finally got what I was waiting for, the new plates!! Woohoo it was a perfect birthday gift for me, right on time. I got it November 04, 2009 - so my dad gave me the go signal to use "IT" that same night! And went home using it the following day!

And... on top of that, yesterday, I had a big breakthrough with one of my stocks. I'm now up almost 20%. Been waiting for that sleeper to creep it's way up for two months. Patience is indeed a virtue. Quick stock trading doesn't seem to like me much. But this winner is definitely worth the wait.

too much work

The past three weeks have been one of the most hectic weeks I've had for quite a while. For some reason, everything just came together like the perfect storm, as they say it. I have two projects, both on the same timeline. Aside from being a developer for both, I'm also doing the Assembly Testing for one of them. This should've been ok, except that the requirements for project #1 keep changing, plus the scope of the modules that I was supposed to assembly test is just increasing!! Holy crap!

Deadlines are coming up and I have no idea how I will be able to finish everything.

I was also stupid to take 2 days off (it was already scheduled beforehand) to celebrate my birthday. I really didn't do anything last Nov 5 and 6, but I just didn't want to work night shift for those two days which is why I decided to push through with my leaves. :) Now I have to scramble next week to finish up the things I need to do.

But hopefully, in a few weeks time, things will be better. Things will be much less hectic.
