Suddenly, I find myself with tons to do despite not being enrolled this summer.

For one thing, preparations for all Engineering Student Council (ESC) events have started. Now, I’m actually relieved that I’m part of the Engineering Cup instead of the Opening Week. I might not take the nightly meetings too well considering the massive traffic on the way home.

Next in line are the Department events, which come simultaneously with the Eng’g-wide events. All my other co-reps are gravely overwhelmed with our situation. It was hardly a week after all the tasks for Recognition rites and here we are again. I do hope the list for our volcorp grows. We badly need all the help we could get because quite frankly, large events is too much to bear for 7 people (correction, 6 — one is still on vacation till June).

Last is my personal blog. I’m still using the wordpress theme from my old wordpress blog. I want to create a personalized template for Same Blank Space but sad thing is, my website programming has become rusty… if not outdated. Heck, I am not even familiar with PHP! Shame on me! The reading list just keeps growing and growing. It’s funny that my programming language is expanding compared to the other language.

Let’s take a look:

Spoken Languages: English and Tagalog (observe the absence of any foreign language )

Programming Language: Basic HTML, C, BASIC, Assembly, MATLAB IDE and DSP (Digital Signals Processing) board programming (coming soon: PHP and FPGA — Field Parallel Gate Arrays)

I wouldn’t be surprised if my English keeps on deteriorating.

Not all to-do list have to be draining.

Fortunately for me, I have two events to look forward to: the Family outing in Bolinao, Pangasinan and the Movie Date with my moviemate the day after (Yay! Malapit na ang Spiderman 3!).

For someone who is supposed to be bored this summer, I could use a little r and r.

I finally have a personal domain! Yay!

I now welcome everyone to my permanent home in the web: rishalopez.net. For now, I’ll be redirecting everything to the blog. If time allows, I could actually create a decent index page and all the other pages that I’ve been planning (photo blog, online resume, etc. — talk about ambitious!)

Lots of thanks (and kisses) to my sweet Dearest. I really really love my gift. And shame on me by not having any gift for you on our anniversary. Bawi na lang? Heehee.

Now, I gotta show this off to everyone. I have a domain! Yay!

Ok, so I’ll admit it. Part of the reason why I rushed to create this blog was for this momentous day. Sure, the blog didn’t actually coincide with the theme of the day. I just thought it would be fitting to start with the most positive topic I could think of.

Before I could start with anything else, let me greet my baby “Happy 2nd Anniversary!”

Whew! And I thought I couldn’t get to start this new blog in time. But lo and behold! Here I am again.

I’m not really so sure how many times I have done this. Moving to another blog is like moving from one home to another. Nothing much to carry from the old blogs, though. I just made the necessary details and pages done before I could officially welcome everyone.

Honestly, I like the feeling of starting a new blog, it’s much like a makeover where I can start fresh without considering all previous events. A chance to reinvent myself is just what I need and this blog is helping me do it. Then again, I might revert back to my old ways. Not that I’m shunning them away or anything.

I really do hope this blog would be my last. Well, I am planning on getting a domain for myself but it seems more of an upgrade than a whole new blog anyway.

Hahahaha, starting this blog with nonsensical babbling. Is this what lies ahead?
