Chronicles of Nika

I’m having some pre-grad jitters. I still need to get a dress and new shoes. I got one dress today but I’m not sure if I can wear that. I might change my mind and opt for the white top, black skirt and black leather shoes combo. I’m not a frequent clothes shopper so I have a limited wardrobe. I try to limit my clothes and just get the basic things I really need and wear. So I still have to decide before this week ends as to what I’ll wear. >.<

I've been thinking of businesses and one of the things I like is furniture. I think I got it from Mom. I thought of it because I wanted some of the patio chairs I saw from that site. I’d need a significant amount of investment before I can pull it off so in the meantime I’ll have to find some smaller items that I can invest on to sell to consumers. I have to make use of Multiply and my networks.

Well, realistically speaking I am not sure if I can lose a lot of weight before the graduation on October 10, unless there are magical diet pills that can make me shed these pounds in less than a month. I’m hoping to lose at least a few pounds because I need to wear a dress under the academic attire. We are supposed to be wearing semi-formal attire under it, and as stated in the university’s guidelines, for females it must be a dress or a blouse/skirt combo together with heeled black leather shoes.

I am not a “dress” or “skirts” person. I usually wear slacks when I need to be in business attire because of my weight. I can’t wear slacks this time though so I need to get a dress made. I need two, one for the picture-taking 3 days before the graduation proper and the other one for the commencement exercises in PICC.

Is anyone looking for pipes for buildings, houses or any construction project? xD My uncle owns a business that specializes with high-quality imported pipes from Turkey and Germany (I think those are the right countries, but I have to double-check it.) They can give out quotes depending on the construction plan and requirements of your projects.

I should get into the construction business, or at least on a field related to construction like being a distributor of safety products. I think its a good business to go into. If only I took a course related to engineering but I took business so its mostly selling of goods and services that I learned and the implementation of a business from the proposal into actual operations. xD

I haven’t been posting after all the school stuff and finals because I have been patiently waiting for the results to come in. I am very happy to say that I will be officially graduating this October 10!!! I am so happy and there are no words that can express how happy I am feeling right now. The official list of graduating students has just come out from the Office of the University Registrar’s site and my name is there.

Finally. <3 Thank you to all who prayed for me and supported me through all of it. Thank you.

We need websites that show an updated listing of apartments for rent in the country (per region or city at least). When I was looking for a good place to rent in Manila, I kept getting outdated listings from the usual places that comes up when you search apartment for rent in Manila or other phrases to that effect.

Good thing my sister found a good place to rent in Boni. Its very accessible, secure and comfortable to live in. It will certainly make things easier for me when I start applying for work in Manila if I choose to work there and not here in Batangas.

I think its a sign. Lol. The PONDS anti wrinkle cream commercial is making me think I need one. They have a sale until the 15th so I still have some time to get a jar in case I decide to try it. My pc just crashed on me again so I’ve been frowning all afternoon. Ugh. I needed Photoshop really bad and I just couldn’t understand GIMP so I gave in and re-installed Windows which started the whole mess. T_T

After installing Windows, it wouldn’t let me choose which OS I wanted to use, instead it automatically loads Windows. Then when I look at My Computer, I can’t see the partition where Ubuntu is installed. T_T I have so many files in there I can cry (and have been for the last hour or so). Ugh. Now the cd reader won’t work either and I can’t find my Photoshop CD. *dies*

I was looking over my gradeschool pictures and I wish I didn’t gain so much weight when I entered highschool. Ugh, I hope I can focus on at least losing a few pounds after this stressful term. I can start walking again once I get the time to rest properly once I graduate. I’ll just walk my dog around outside the house. I can’t really do walking where I live because there are tons of stray dogs around. xD I don’t want to end up with rabies. Lol.

I saw someone ask about lipofuze and since I had no idea what it was. So I had to go around the internet and look for lipofuze reviews. I found lots of information about it but none of my friends have tried it.

I’ve been thinking of things I can sell once I graduate. I really want to be able to work from home or my own store rather than work in a corporate setting or be a government slave employee. Maybe once we get a different president I’d change my mind. >.<

I've been thinking of practicing drawing and improving my Photoshop skills. I want to be able to ink digitally and also learn how to cellshade. Though it will take me a long time to get better drawing skills. So starting a micro business would be easier. I want to have my own bakeshop and I want to improve my baking skills. But it takes some time and money to do so. -sigh- Maybe I should save up lots of money and be supplier of Italian exotic sportscars, or maybe just their parts like Ferrari parts or ones for Lamborghini. Though I don’t think there are lots of Ferraris here in the country. >.<

I still can’t believe it. Hell Finals week is over. After two weeks of being a zombie and caffeine slave, I will now have time to sleep. My poor eyes have been suffering after too much time spent on the computer researching and writing our research/term papers. My eye bugs have also grown larger and I need an eye cream for wrinkles fast. >.< Its amazing how two weeks of stress can make those pesky wrinkles show.

After I graduate, all this will be worth it. <3

I lost something (a receipt) that i need so I have to get a notarized affidavit of loss. >.< Good thing there are tons of notary publics under the LRT stations. :P I just thought how many specific fields do lawyers have? I haven't heard much about specializations in law here in the country (apart from corporate law) so I don't have any idea. Though through the internet I found other specializations like there's for example a Seattle personal injury lawyer and other states have lots of their own too. maybe one reason we don’t have as much is we don’t usually sue in courts. Its expensive to do so and most of us would rather spend the little money we have on food and shelter.
