Was filling up OT form had 71 hours of overtime last month excluding those less than 2 hours.
Enjoyed last Saturday’s wanderings with jayson and vince. Hope I can climb Mt Makiling (as far as I can) sometime soon.
Enjoyed the Thai resto jayson took us near the entrance of UPLB’s campus.
The Calamba/Laguna area need wider highways. The heavy traffic was irritating.
Words/phrase for the day would have to be “Living at the edge of competence”. A phrase I take to heart. I’m currently in this position right now. Doing things I’ve never done before, having to force your tools to lots of hoops to accomodate what you have to do. If you had asked me even 2 months ago (this is my third month in my new job) why I had left my previous job I wouldn’t be able to explain it. I’d just have to make you understand through verbal acrobatics. I realize now that I wanted to live in the edge of my competence, this is the only way I can grow as fast as I want, and the ups and downs of learning/implementing/programming is so acute and depressing and exhilarating I haven’t felt this psyched in working.
I’m alone in the office while typing this, the only reason I am able to is because I needed a break after grappling with jar dependency hell.
I miss my friends. It’s fun seeing people grow, learn and change. What isn’t fun is trying to schedule something, anything. I know you probably know the feeling. Even trying to meet with 2 friends and it’s a given that one of you is going to have to adjust to the schedules of the other two.
Part of me wants to make posts on some rudimentary stuff that made my past few days hellish, but it always seems to be a battle between standing still or moving forward.
