The Creeping Sadness

The greatest life's challenge is always overwhelming. God will not give something we cannot handle. We have to trust God's plan. I have to trust him and believe that he loves me... for I am his child.

He has reason for everything.

God,

Please show me your plan... tell me... let me know. I have faith on you. I will wait. You're the only one I have. Share me your strength God. Please take care of those I love. At least make them happy. Father, i'm sorry i'm wasted. I'm trying. I'm sorry I didn't know. I need you Father, in my life...

A second hand book of Vampire Diaries

Someone decided to sell their books, and I bought some. I don’t know why I did; it’s just a waste of money after. It’s second hand and maybe because it is cheap that I bought it. And now I have:

Eat, Pray and Love (55php),

2 Vampire Diaries (200php);

and

Tuesdays with Morie (50php)

Total of 305php

And there are this other two books of Vampire Diaries that I didn’t take. “The Fury” which cost around 50php but I can’t find and the other one vampire diaries which I forgot the title already. The latter costs 155php so I became hesitant to buy it. Besides, I’m not sure whether that one is worth reading since I know nothing about the story and I do feel disappointed after reading some books. It’s just a matter of choosing between 305php with 460php. I might as well just watch the series.

I need to remind myself that I have a tablet and I can download ebook anytime I like. And I should only buy something that has value and can generate money. The only exception is when it comes to educational books.

I also took some supposedly donated books for free from the seller. Their title I didn’t cared to memorize but I’m done with one book titled “The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes”. I will review those books after. The book “The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes” was a classic one, it happened that I watched the same movie early this year. I encountered the book name in the biography of Jose Rizal and I wonder what’s with that book the made Rizal liked it. Then I realized it was a detective themed book after I finished reading it.

I’m just a recent self recruited reader of some of these books (amateur bookworm), though I really have this love of books since I’m a child. It’s just that no one encouraged me to read since my family and relatives don’t have this interest with books. Though I never had the chance to witness it, there’s unfounded information that Lolo also is fond of reading. A least I’m not an alien. I even become addicted to it when I get hooked up in story, I will come to a point where I will not rest until I’ll get to finish it. There’s a bit of lightness in feeling and a bizarre fulfillment when I see that I have the books I like.

MOOC, Taking Online Course

Mostly hates school. They should feel privileged enough because it would be their ticket into success. Education is not only a responsibility but of my passion. I’ve been dreaming of getting back to school. Maybe this time, I will work on my social skills. Because in Coursera, one instructor quoted “A big part of education is getting to know people and getting socialized and understanding how an environment worked” and that gave me a sinking feeling as truth was being told. An unintentional mistake from my past. But school and work? I don’t know how to squeeze it on my schedule and most especially of my status being financially unstable. I’m even reserving my poor earned salary into some other future investment. Then enrollment came. Still undecided and then boom… I can’t return the past back anymore. This is God’s will maybe.

And maybe the desire was too strong that it came attracted. “It’s in the universe”. Just like in the “The Secret” book, if you know that book. So it came.

FREE ONLINE COURSE. I’m ecstatic. What’s more? It offers subject related to my course back in college. Real back to school can wait. I will commit myself to this one first. Though I prefer real school setup, like my initial plan, the quality of information I will learn from this seems not bad at all and worth trying.

I’m currently taking HCI (Human Computer Interface) and InternetHistory, Technology and Security

SUKO NA KO: Fusion Bolt

You can check all my related posts for fusion bolt here or you can find the link/label at the right side of the screen.

I left my tablet with USB and OTG cable attached on it, and tadah... next morning it was fully drained.

I’m usually the kind of person who forgets that I still have gadgets to attend to. Most of the time, I went to slumber while leaving my work behind. Some gadgets were designed to cope up with that. But sad to say… FUSION BOLT DOES NOT!!!

And it is indeed a disappointing and heartbreaking thing that my fubo went into a poor state just because of that. I am not even a heavy user and I rarely use my tablet. And now, the battery is only good for more or less 2 hours of usage. (I only watch downloaded youtube videos and ebooks T_T ).

It is still functioning though, but the once promising battery specs that were advertised were now proved its self unsatisfactory.  Yet, for those ‘excessively’ careful, this is still an instant treasure. Yeah I know, it’s my fault.  You better watch this video about batteries, this is a mind opener:

So,

Fusion bolt is not for reckless users since it is a CHEAP but HIGH MAINTENANCE (low quality). That is what you get in cheap products. Pero okay na un, it really depends how crucial your files and how much you are willing to risk.

No luck with lotto

I wasted another P40 for lotto just yesterday night. If you would sum up all the expenses you made for all the gambles all of your life, well that might be enough for something to invest into more valuable things. But then the idea of getting rich is tempting especially for those not that so lucky in life.

It was already months from my last try. In fact I won baliktaya for another time but I can’t find where I placed the ticket. I was surprised that the price of lotto grew and became consistent P20 each effective May 17, 2013 as posted outside the outlet. Meaning, it was approximately 5 months from now since I joined the last draw.

Just because of that dream where I won the lottery that gave me idea I might as well try. Did try but no avail. This kind of thing is really a waste of time and money and I’m quite disappointed :D. But well, I’m can’t promise I will really stop but I will limit this kind of activities.

It will always be long and hard way to richness…

Here is my old post about lotto:
