  • Pen is officially an ex employee of CitiBank from this time forward. You can catch up for news about her from her blog.
  • NBA first round playoffs has started. I’m rooting for Nash’s Phoenix Suns and Kidd & Carter’s New Jersey Nets. Though I doubt that the Nets can pull a 4 game win streak against Shaq’s Heat now that they are 0-3.
  • S.P.I.T. will be performing at mag:net bar in Katipunan all Thursdays of May. I’m looking forward to watching them once again. :D I’ve already watched them perform twice, one at UP and the other at Cafe Lupe. They are a fun group and highly recommended to watch.
  • Bought a Lego Star Wars PS2 game. It’s a kid’s game so Pen and I liked it very much. Hehe. It’s a co-operative game and you get to play along side each other. I play Qui-Gon while Pen plays Obi-Wan. Nico, the officemate-guitarist, suggested this game and we liked it so much. Lego + StarWars is the bam!
  • Speaking of Star Wars, the last episode will be shown on the 19th of May. Another movie worth anticipating. I hope Lucas will not disappoint the Star Wars geeks. No, I’m not a Star Wars geek but I do find the saga interesting.
  • The 12-issue Superman I’ve been faithfully following has finally ended. It was a year long run with Jim Lee rendering the art. The whole arc was a big disappointment compared to his Batman Hush arc. Reviewers and critics consider this Superman storyline an intelligent narrative and they are missing the action Superman and Jim Lee are known for. Oh well, at least I was able to complete my collection. The only comic I’m following now is the Superman/Batman issues with Jeph Loeb writing the issues and various artists rendering the art.
  • The project I’m doing with Dinky and Joel is halfway thru - that’s according to them. As their programmer, the job now shifts to me. After thoroughly finishing their part (modelling, understanding, interpreting), I must do my share and do the nitty gritty part of programming. This is not really a hard programming project. This will just run in Excel with lots of macros and VBA parts. If we are halfway thru as they’ve claimed, we have over-estimated our budget time. In our time-table, we are just entering our 25% schedule. I guess that’s a good thing so that the time-pressure is off our shoulders.
  • And lastly, it’s the first of May. Happy Birthday to my mother dear. :D
