Nagdadalawang Isip…

reishin.i.ph o meisatsu.edu.ms?

Di ko alam kung san ako mag-bo-blog.. @_@

Kung kukumparahin ang dalawa, tingin ko angat ang blogger dahil mas ma-customize ko ito. Quite possible, pwede ko pa ngang gawing parang website na rin to rito gamit ang mga iframes pero… hay.. sa i.ph? Siguro ayaw ko lang talagang umalis doon/rito dahil sa e-mail add at sa password protect per post at hindi whole blog…

Love ko yung fact na halos kahit ano pwede kong gawin rito sa blogger at uber simple lang talaga at nice rin ang posting kaso lang..

Kahit di ko rin naman gaanong ginagamit iyon, ma-mi-miss ko ang privilege posts ng i.ph.. hay.. ang hirap naman nito.. anong gagawin ko?? @_@

And just in case your wondering—ang dahilan kung bakit napag-isip isip na naman ako sa tanong na ito ay ang pag-import ko ng posts galing sa blogger papuntang i.ph ko.. Grabe, mas madali talaga ang mass editing sa blogger dahil sa kanilang management page.. Hay.. mahirap na desisyon to..

Teenage Pregnancy: a hard lesson to learn

I was going to the terminal when I saw her. What attracted my attention the most was her apparent resemblance to one of my batch mates. Her hair was longer now and personally I think she looked more mature but there was something in her eyes that told me how hard life must've been these past couple of years. Her eyes looked tired and searching. Nearby a little boy was walking around. She must've been watching that boy. But the most striking thing about her was not her appearance, no, she wore a simple white shirt and jogging pants. It was the her big circle-shaped stomache—she was with child.

She finally noticed that I was staring at her. As she stared back I could tell that she recognized me at least as a student from the school she once attended. I couldn't help but look at her stomache and remember what my mom had said. I didn't stop to greet her, no, we were never close I don't even think that she knew my name. Eventually I passed her without a word. I didn't expect myself looking back after walking a few meters away from her. One… two… looks like her family became bigger. I can't believe it, she made that mistake, again.

She's not my classmate but if she continued her studies and didn't get pregnant that soon she would be in first year college by now. I heard about her situation from my mom, who knew that her sister was my batch mate. My mom told me that she had gone rebel because she had hepa-B and could not take the course that she wanted, nursing. She escaped to her poor boyfriend and eventually got pregnant and bore her child on a day I don't know when. What surprised me now was seeing her pregnant myself. My mom told me that she had already given birth to the first so the child she carries now must be the second one. It was so round that she looked like she carried a ball on her stomache. I think it's a 6 months old fetus.

Her sister is my batch mate and a friend of mine in friendster. We both share a common attitude: we tend to become annoying in our curiosity and inquiries. So far he sister's been faring ok in her academic status though she did do better in elementary compared to high school.

I felt rather bad just passing by her there. I didn't even say hi but then again, why should I? I don't think she even knew me. I still remember her stern attitude as an official in softball before. If my mom hadn't told me, I wouldn't believe that she'd just let her life fall like that. Getting pregnant at that age? To stop going to school? Oh my gosh… I heard that her parents gave up on her. They said that she was spoiled, this separation and time at poverty would do her good. I guess they have a point but I think what they did is harsh. You see, right now, we also have this batch mate who got pregnant, stop going to school, gave birth, then went back to school. She's a graduatee now. Even though she was inactive for one year, at least she could continue with a proper education now with much support from her parents. Her child too is well cared of and had celebrated his/her birthday a few months back.

I wish A.J.'s parents were like that. Then maybe she would've had a better life now. Hay… life, life.. when will you stop giving us trials? I guess… never.

Some Updates & CuteNews.RU

Maybe I should've gone for mySQL instead of txtSQL..

Hey there, Shin here to update you on the development of our batch website, JLMM '07. For your convenience, here's link to what I'm talking about: jlmm07.freehostia.com.

It's still under construction and will be so for the next few weeks since I don't really have much time to attend to it.  Althought tonight I think I've made a pretty good discovery.

Tada! CuteNews.RU — a CMS derived from the CuteNews at cutephp that does NOT have the "Powered by CuteNews" link at the bottom! I'm so glad I found it!

I installed it to our batch website a few minutes ago. It's only been a while but I've already encountered a few problems:

• I have yet to know how to set it to have http://jlmm07.freehostia.com as the index or homepage.
• When I did manage to do the above mentioned the redirection went all screwey and now I can't go to the post's permalink.

I really think I should've gone with the mySQL installation instead of the txtSQL. You see, I wanted to try having my site use just flat files instead of the mySQL database. It sounded like a great idea at first but I see now that it would've been better if I had just gone with the mySQL.

Huh… maybe I should reinstall it and go with the mySQL this time…

An update on Glenda, I heard she would be back by tomorrow, yahoo!   She had the back of her head injured thus, the hospitalization but it didn't sound critical naman. I don't really know much of the details but if she's able to come back this soon then it might've not been as bad an accident as I thought it was although Dhal did mention Glenda's face and feet being bandaged all over… Lol, can't wait to see the photos they took! ^o^

Another update, this time, in regards with this website. I cleaned up and decreased the number of tags. It was a tedious task having to edit the posts one-by-one but I guess it's worth it. The tags aren't as few as in Car's blog but I think they're just right since I really do have that many topics here. It should do. I hope you like them! 

@_@ Idiot me speaking…

Arghh… I can't believe I wasted 3 hours of my evening encoding only to find that the original file of my term paper was saved with the title "yate.doc" in our old computer!

How Stupid I am, ngayon ko pa lang chi-neck kung ano yung laman nun! Nakakainis talaga kasi inakala ko talaga before na nawala yung file ko na yun kaya nag-encode ako ng 3 hours only to find now na pwede ko na lang pala yung I-edit saving me precious time for sleep?!

Argh… nakakainis naman ito! I feel like such an idiot!

from TheFreeDictionary 

Hahay.. Ganito talaga ang nangyayari sakin ngayon. For weeks I've been postponing the finishing of my term paper until tonight–because tomorrow is the submission. I'm still rather skeptical about the deadline since I don't remember our English teacher, Mrs. Norma C. Aleman, talking about it but maybe because at that time I was just way to busy engrossing myself in the sudoku puzzle behind the back or our Tatsulok magazine…

Right now, I'm waiting for the other computer in our house to start up. I restarted it because the Microsoft Word Application hung up while I was encoding the references which I am proud to tell you is the last part of my paper. I'm almost done. I best get going then.

Oh and I have really bad news… This morning I read Ivy's text saying that Glenda/Dendy got involved in a car accident last Friday (Feb. 23, 2007). Please look through my old post: Laag ta! and my lower year crush-friend

I told her to just spend the night at our house since it was already about 7:30pm when we left Melver's house but no… She wanted to go back to Bulakanon. I guess she was fortunate enought to still find a ride home but looks like her luck didn't come to far since she met an accident… *sigh*.. This is so unfortunate.. I hope she's ok and I hope the teacher's consider her for a while—malapit na rin kasing ibigay ang mga clearance namin and if she's not around… Who knows what will happen to her academic status.

I don't know the details yet and as far as I know the Ivy doesn't either. Simba ko lang, sana di na tsugi si Glenda. I'll go ask her friends at school tomorrow. Ivy said that she got admitted to a hospital in Makilala… Siya kasi eh, di na lang siya natulog samin.. :'(

Please pray for her safety and quick recovery…
