Done with the website!

April 17th, 2006

After many days of deciding what’s best for my website, I’ve finally finished it. It’s a community for all Filipino mobile users around the world. International users are also welcomed. I put a forum in it so members can interact. Members can download ringtones, wallpapers and text messages posted by their fellow members. Please join us, me, rather (because I don’t have a member yet! Haha). Thanks!

The website is http://mobilepg.gfx-underground.com/main

My Website-making History

April 12th, 2006

Ever since I’ve started to know the HTML, I tried numerous attempts to make a presentable website.

My first website was a Meteor Garden Fansite. Haha. Yeah, you can laugh at me now. I, muself can’t believe I made a fansite for these Taiwanese guys. Being a newbie in website making, I received some rude remarks from my visitors, saying that I better close my site because I don’t know web designing. According to them, if you know web design, you SHOULD make your own template. Hell, they didn’t know how much effort I’ve exerted just to make a nice looking template. *rolls eyes* After a month, due mainly to those remarks, I closed my site. Besides, I’ve decided not to waste my time on those F4 guys.

My second website was about jokes and quotes. It was a Tripod-hosted site. I was getting busy with school at that time so I had to stop updating it. When I revisited it recently, it was closed by the webhost.

Exhausting Day!

April 9th, 2006

Sitting for 10 hours, listening to lectures, is really exhausting! We started the seminar at 8 am and ended at 5 pm! I think my butt sores. Haha.

Anyway, it was an emergency cases approaches seminar like acute abdomen, sensorial changes from clouding of consciousness to coma, acute dyspnea or difficulty in breathing, chest pains, poisoning, etc. Some lectures were interesting maybe because of the effort of the lecture not to make the audience sleepy. I fell asleep during lecture about chest pain. The lecturer was fine except that I can’t understand his words all because of his “American accent.” I don’t get it why he has to “sound like an American” when he only have stayed in the states for not more than 5 years during his master’s degree. I would have appreciated his lecture better if I had understood what he was talking about. It’s not that I don’t understand the Americans, it is just that when he speaks he swallows some words to sound “slang” as the Filipinos term it.

On being dependent

April 3rd, 2006

For my 22 years of existence, I have been dependent to my parents. Yeah, shame on me. When I graduated from college, I was hoping to get a good job where I can finally have money of my own. But I had a pre-medical course (BS Biology) and everybody thought that I should pursue medicine cause that’s where my future is. With my course, if I really want to go to the field related to it, I only had four options at that time – teach, go to research, have a master degree, or go to medical school. I never wanted to teach (though my mother is a teacher) because I think I have little patience, I never wanted to go research because I hated making bunch of papers and experiments were too tiresome for me. I never really appreciated research even when I was in my undergraduate course. Having a master’s degree was not appealing to me because I will land to the same options I had for my bachelor’s degree. Therefore, the only option I have was go to medical school so until now, I am still getting support from my parents.

Pros and cons of being dependent to my parents:
