first practicum week



For this summer, i'm undergoing my practicum. sa Polygon Ventures ako napunta sa N. Domingo Street.

I take two jeepney rides from Tandang Sora to Balara, then from Balara to Katipunan. From there I take the LRT to Gilmore tapos hintayan kami ni Faith then konting lakad nalang nasa office na kami! hehehe.

Polygon Ventures is a landscape contracting company, unlike my other blockmates na napunta sa mga design firms, owned and managed by Arch. Ezra Castillo. Ok rin ang office environment, mababait ang mga tao dun at marami kaming natututunan ni Faith dahil mga enginneer, accountant, at horticulturists ang nakakasalamuha namin dun.

Well nung 1st two days namin dun eh bum kami ni Faith. Puro browse ng plans at basa ng books ang ginagawa namin, busy kasi ang mga tao dun. Eventually, may mga pinagawa narin samin, nagpadesign ng streetscapes at mini park for Amvel Mansions sa Paranaque (which eventually daw baka nga designs namin ang gagamitin...hahahaha! la lang kakaiba ang fulfillment...chorva...hapee...)

ayun, tapos due sa tuesday or wednensday ang isa pang plate...
guess what dear friends...
hai..
grabe...
memorial park! (sa san juan, tarlac)
wha!!!!!!!!!!
huhuhuhu...ang sarcastic din ng life noh?
after nung memorial horrific experiece sa design class just this sem eh viola! eto may memorial park na pinapadesign sa amin...
hay, buti nalang tulong kami ni Faith...hehehe

Ang maganda sa work (contracting work) eh ang aircon! hehe joke... I mean, we learn to design for a limited budget...siyempre mga boss namin gusto nila mas economical otherwise cheap hehe.which is , of course, practical...tsaka exposed kami sa site and building...nextime daw kasi pag may transpo eh isasama kami sa site at makikita namin na nabubuhay ang design!fun fun fun...sana nga mag site visit na soon! hmph...at ang gusto ko talaga makita ay ang plant nursery nila sa tagaytay...hehehe

exposed din kami sa prices ng mga hardscape at softscape materials (senxa kung ma-jargon po...) and yung mga practical methods ng construction ng sari-saring bagay...one more good thing about work is that the people there in Polygon are like family...ang close nila tapos kalog..so fun naman...

aliw rin ako sa timecard...la lang...mababaw ang aking kaligayahan i know.
although nakakapagod ang trabaho...kasi nga from 8am to 5pm ka sa office tapos byahe pa ko pauwi..hay...

sabi nga ng tito ko eh i-enjoy ko muna ang school life ko...kasi pag nagtatrabaho na eh limited na ang oras mo for yourself, for socials, for family, for friends...for anything!...including rest! wha! grabe ang threat noh? hehe...pero totoo yan...
ang tingin ko naman depende naman yan sa work...kung fulfillinf naman eh why not...basta the pagod is worth it..kung hindi...it's simply time to find another job...hehe...true right?

yun lang...
ah basta..
ENJOY LIFE pa din ang motto ko...
hehe..
tsaka God is good all the time...bahala na kung anu man ang nagyayari sa buhay...
basta strong ang Faith mo ok ka na...
ayt?
*grin*

Rating:★★★
Category:Restaurants
Cuisine: Asian
Location:Eastwood, Libis
On the food: i'm not much of a food critique pero masarap ang food dito.hehe.may variety - may sushi, may native, inihaw, and actually they also serve some meat for those who are not much of a seafood fan...

and i adored the customized jumbo platter for the "salu-salo" meal...cute hehe..plastic platter na pretend banana leaf at coconuts sa side.

o diba nasarapan kami haha. pero promise.di talaga ako fan ng oysters. yak.
nakakabitin nga lang ang iced tea nila. breakfast lang daw yung bottomless...and so i ask. why? hit ba ang iced tea pag breakfast? hello?

moving on...

On the interior: sangkatutak ang pictures ng fishing enthusiasts tsaka yung mga articles on the restaurant.tsaka jumbo fish on the wall! hehe. pati tshirts.hmm dunno why. ang masasabi ko lang. ang daming wall decor mmhmm...plenty! sabog na tingnan. although i appreciate the jumbo fish figures sa wall...i never knew na may"mahi-mahi" na fish! hehe...tpos...mababa ang ceiling sa second floor, approximately 2.15 meters. while ang lawak nung first floor..hmm...

On the Staff: ok naman cla hehehe...may mga kahawig clang kilala namin hehe.kaya masaya.hehe. kidding aside, hmm iba iba nga lng cla ng uniform...may japanese, may filipino outfit, may isa nka blue, may naka white...na ewan bka may representation din ang mga suot nila...why? la lang. kakaiba kasi. if they're trying to achieve versatility that bad...eh wag naman sana pati uniform varied.hehehe.peace.

owel, happy naman ako.naenjoy ko naman...on the price? well the usual restaurant price i guess. viands good for i think about 4 are worth 100up. yeah. right. usual. great for groups na gusto kumain ng sulit. like us hehe

The Pursuit of Happyness

Rating:★★★★
Category:Movies
Genre: Drama
Christopher Gardner: Don't ever let someone tell you, you can't do something. Not even me. All right?

Christopher: All right.

Christopher Gardner: [to his son] You got a dream, you gotta protect it. People can't do something themselves, they wanna tell you that you can't do it. You want something? Go get it. Period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Christopher Gardner: And it was at that time that I thought about Thomas Jefferson writing that Declaration of Independence. Him saying that we have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And I thought about how he knew to put the 'pursuit' in there, like no one can actually have happiness. We can only pursue it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i thought i should start this review with the two most memorable quotes in the movie. very nice noh? hehe...teaser ;p

i rated it with four stars because i believe it's a kind of movie that would probably have different feedbacks, i mean if i only consider myself i'd rate it 5 stars! hehe...but my mom found it simple.my brother was bored (oh, dvd pla ang pinanood namin hehe) while i really liked it! kaya ayun, i guess it depends on who's watching...

anyway, i really loved the story. yes, it was indeed simple - a simple plot and setting and script...but the whole story itself was quite inspiring.touching even. And it was inspired by a true story too.

and the chemistry between true-to-life father-and-son Will Smith and Jaden Smith is remarkable.

the story revolves around the life of a persistent father trying to pursue a good life for him and his son...even when things 'get worse' for them, he tries to find a way out of it..let's put it this way: he'd rather take the track towards happiness than the path to depression...

the point is, no matter how hard life gets to be for him, he doesn't give up..of course, his son keeps him going also..but the thing is, he succeeds after all the sacrifice and hardship. Medyo cliche yeah pero, basta, there's something different about this story that will surely touch a part of you.

if you're looking for insipiration, panoorin mo toh!

hmm...i am the kind of person na pag ginalit mo once medyo mahirap makalimot sa masama mong gawain.it's hard for me to forgive. pero ngayon may special aura ang linggong ito. i feel bad having to feel negative emotions most of the time - yung mga pakiramdam na ayaw mo naman maramdaman pero na-trigger eh so.shoot.ayun na.in rage ka na.nagmumura. I despise those moments. But now I feel...ok....nai-share ko sa confession at sa dasal ang mga kasalanan at sama ng loob ko...
