Yesterday, I posted on my “Series of Unfortunate Events” post my LandBank experience. For those who haven’t read the article, I went to LandBank to withdraw my PhP 2,700.00 school stipend over-the-counter cause I lost my ATM. Yesterday’s transaction was not approved and required me to process its replacement.

So today, I processed its replacement. The process was smooth and easy so there were no problems. Here’s a chronology of events on how I got my replacement. Continue reading “LandBank CM Recto Experience” »

It all started yesterday.

MSU SASE Results

Yesterday, the result of the Mindanao State University System Admissions and Scholarship Examination was released. I admit that I was expecting to be in the System TOP 20, but I was wrong. I was very disappointed of myself! I should have been contented being in the TOP 20 of General Santos campus. But for the overall results, I’m very happy that most of the people in GenSan TOP 20 were my Pisay and West batchmates.

Last Day of Exams

The last exam I took some hours ago was Biology 3. I read the whole chapter on the discovery of DNA as the Genetic Material. I mastered it for couple of hours, from the study of Griffith, Watson and Crick’s model up to Meselson and Stahl’s experiment (semi-conservative model of DNA). But it turned out that only a few questions from that part came out. Most of the questions were from the part I least studied. ****!

LandBank Trip

Right after our last exams, a bulletin was posted regarding an emergency general assembly after lunch. Our director told us that we are not required to attend classes tomorrow and other stuff. So after the assembly, I rushed to get a gate pass for my LandBank trip.

I was supposed to withdraw my PhP 2,700.00 school stipend (plus my 1,000 internship allowance). I rode a taxi to LandBank C.M. Recto just to catch the 3pm cut-off. I realized that I only had PhP 544.00 in my pocket. The cab charged me 48.00, so I gave my 500. He said he didn’t have change so just paid him 44.00.

I arrived there earlier, filled up a withdrawal slip and fell in line (haha). The teller asked me for an ID, I gave my school ID. She also asked me for my ATM card, and I told her that I lost it and will process the replacement next week. Continue reading “Series of Unfortunate Events” »

The second screening, on the other hand, covers Mathematics and Science subjects. Passing the first screening is a prerequisite to take the second screening. THe passers of the second screening gets a sure slot to the school. Continue reading “Plans for PSHS NCE 2nd Screening” »

Many techie people have iPhone (Time Magazine’s 2007 Invention of the Year) on the top of their Christmas wishlist. But I, as a part of the specified group, find them not as techie as a real geek.

Personally, I don’t have iPhone on my wishlist. It does not pass my standards of an ideal mobile phone. Here’s a roundup of reasons why:

• iPhones released in the market are theoretically locked to a certain array of mobile networks. Their list is quite limited so there’s a need to hack the phone if your provider is not listed. Now, for the real downside: iPhone firmware updates blocks these hacks so their is a need to hack it all over again. Real geeks are lazy, right?
• iPhone does not support 3G. A real ouch for mobile Internet users. The fastest capable technology in the iPhone is the EDGE technology, which is far too slow from the industry-standard 3G.
• iPhone users say that they frequently expriences lags. No first hand experience for this. The worst, some units even freeze so there’s a need to restart the phone. (It doesn’t have a Ctrl+Alt+Delete button). ;D
• iPhone is Apple’s first gadget in the field of mobile phones. They’re not that experienced in the field yet.
• iPhone’s platform is something new. To date, there are only a few developers developing iPhones applications (lesser selection of apps). Would you develop something great when it can only ran in one phone?

I believe my points are already sufficient. Now, I’ll ask you is iPhone on your list?

Aethyrians?

During the first-run of the batch name poll, the winning name was Aethyrians. During that time, Aethyrians was the best among the choices.

But should Aethyrians be our batchname? In my own opinion, its a simple no. The definitions of Aethyrians are quite vague, there’s a lot of positive and negative definitions. There’s inconsistency.

The next best option was Olympians. Its a good name but the fact that the batch Titans existed in Pisay, its no good (the Olympians defeated the Titans).

Katipuneros? Nice name. It’s unique. It’s like a chain breaker: Empyreans, Fortis, Illumina, Paragons then Katipuneros. Hahaha. I hope this will be our batch name. We have three more months to graduation, we have to have a name as soon as possible.
