in the name of zero

i’m fresh outta college and currently enjoying freedom. (mostly because it took me six years to get through) many of my classmates have said their goodbyes. some have already left carrying with them the promise of employment and all the luxuries and benefits that come with the degree they recently got. at this point though, i’m pretty certain that i won’t be using the calculus and advanced math concepts i learned from school. also the chemistry and some of the physics concepts.

looking at my graduation again this time with my hormones in check, i feel kinda sad that school’s over. afterall, university is the only pace in this city where you can find high quality chicks! usually comes in three flavors:

a) one with all the beauty… and rich.
b) one with all the brains… and rich.
c) one with both all the beauty and all the brains and above all… rich.

that’s that.

for the most part, i’m just slacking off these days, just watching full anime seasons everyday. sometimes, i walk (on my usual route) to the internet cafe near my school to play DoTA. quickly becoming a daily routine if you ask me.

faced with the prospect of getting work soon, my original plan was to make easy money by becoming a call center agent in some company some place up north. actually, i’m still entertained by that idea until now. recruitments will be held this coming april and me and my friends agreed that we’d give it a shot. afterall, the only important requirement is to be “able to speak functional english”.

summer also means that i must again take up a new hobby and/or continue my old ones. usually, i settle for learning a new programming language (of my liking) and doing some fun stuffs with my chosen PL.

coz no one wants a C guy nowadays… i’m practically screwed. so again with the prospect of getting work, i’m giving learning java and “some of the bullshit that comes with it” a shot. that is where the money is “apparently” nowadays. or so i think.

i guess she’s finishing up packing her stuff as i’m typing this entry. she’s going to cebu for a job interview and the thought about not seeing her again and missing her kicked in kinda late. i’m such an asshole.

thinking about her brings back vivid memories of our trip to cagayan! it’s a story i’ll be sure to tell my grandsons if i’ll have any…

this is niel. signing off.
