Another important lesson in life:
When talking with someone over the phone and you didn’t get his/her name very well, don’t say what you think you heard. Just be safe and address the person as mam/sir.
I was really late for the interview yesterday. I was so late that they did not let me take the tests anymore and the head of the HR department suggested that I call them back next year.
It was my fault because I left 30mins too late. I realized that I should’ve allotted more time to [...]
Let’s say you and the guys cooked something and you want your dad to taste some of it so you can brag.
The problem for most people is that there’ll be not much left for dad after. That’s because guys tend to eat it all or until they’re very full, whichever comes first.
The best solution for [...]
There are some lessons in life that you learn the hard way. Sometimes it has to be that way and the best thing you can do is face it and admit your mistake and learn from that mistake.
Here’s what I’ve learned today:
If someone calls you to offer you a job even if you don’t want [...]
I’ve always been a fan of positive thinking. But as I grew older, I practice it less and less. This post by the blog Think Simple Now revived it in a way. Do yourself a favor and read it now. It’s one of the best articles that I read in a long while.
The 5 Myths [...]
The Java forum at Sun is really great. People are quick to respond and are very friendly–as long as you know how to ask properly.
I didn’t get the java programmer job at my top pick at well, it stings hehe. I’m laughing it off :).
But that doesn’t stop me from learning more about Java. [...]
I realized something. Back then I was too scared to get a job because I didn’t have a CS degree. I thought I might get turned down for the job etc. but I figured what I know is a little adequate. I’m almost there.
I don’t have to be a super expert and know everything about [...]
Ok I leered at Manang Linda– she’s a sort of friend living with our family. She had this comment about my Dad not delivering LPG. Well I guess she said it out loud because she’s frustrated she has to cook outside on our charcoal stove. We use it when we ran out of LPG.
I [...]
Here are my thoughts at the moment:
Vertigo is scary.
I’m somewhat excited to learn how to program. How I dream to work in an IT related job.
Study Python, then PHP and get a job as a web programmer. It won’t happen right now and that way. Do it on the side.
What’ll happen: Get any job maybe [...]
Here’s a realization.
Guess who said the quote:
Much is lost from indecisions rather than from bad decisions.
First, think of the best possible yet attainable solution for your problem.
Execute the solution.
It’s better rather than doing:
Chose a solution. Most people will choose the most convenient one requiring the least amount of effort. They are unsure of the solution [...]
What’s this about?
This is another personal blog which means topics range from anything that I can think of or want to write.
I mostly write about my struggles about learning how to program and finding a job. Also when I feel like it I write long posts about my rants and ramblings about my life. All in one big paragraph. Don't say I didn't warn you.
About the kansas state thing, it's actually a misheard lyric from a certain song I like. Try to guess what song. :)
Happy reading!Write To Enteng
