The day of twists

Well, today was strange. I didn't make it to the graduation ceremonies. Now I know what you are about to say, but it wasn't entirely my fault. there were a couple of things that killed it. First, my parents got scared about the split second timing that I had scheduled, which caused several little arguments and followed by a realization that mom couldn't handle the time that we would be stuck in graduation. See, she has a hip condition where she can't sit for very long, this has caused several problems, but not a big disaster till now. Since they wouldn't be able to go, I decided that it probably wouldn't be a great process, so it was at this point that we decided to call this off. We then went and did some shopping and enjoyed the rest of the day, which was good because we quit arguing so much and I wasn't able to pick up the server till 3 o'clock, well into the ceremonies. Did some minor things, and rested (WOW, what an effect). Then we went to see Mario and his family at the brazilian resteraunt. The food was excellent, the company was even better. I did have a lot of fun, but the brat, mario, decided to hoodwink me and he paid the bill... I am going to have to come up with a method to pay him back, but I think I already have that plan in process (MUAHAHAHAHAHA).

I got a great digital camera today for a graduation present, I still think my mom and dad went above and beyond with it. I had it at the resteraunt, and I might post some of the pictures in a later post... maybe.

Well all, I think I am going to call it a night, Good night and God Bless

Another day in paradise

Ok, this is what I am facing this next couple of weeks. First this week is a server deployment week, spent all day yesterday dealing with setting up and getting the server configured, today was supposed to be a little bit of the deployment, but didn't have anything to do when we got there. After I got home, I got a call from my main work called and I had to go into it to get some file setup.

Tomorrow, I have a commencement graduation ceremony to go in Anaheim (over an hour away) at 1:00 pm. I need to get a server that is to be deployed next week at another place at, hopefully, 12:00 pm in Pasadena. Now this is possible, if and only if, the wonderful shipment arrives on time, there is no traffic, and everything runs smoothly. If I miss this window, then I get to wait till Monday when the place opens again to pick up the device which has to be shipped out on Monday already configured so that on Tuesday when I arrive in Colorado the server is there. This is what I mean when I say that this next couple of weeks are going to be split second, even now my main work is calling me to do work.

Currently, I still have to do the work for another client via programming requirements, which needs to get done. This is in addition to my homework and time with my family. I have to worry about getting everything from my team mates from school so that on Monday I will have everything for the presentation that we will have to give. The only thing that brings my mind rest is that in less then three months, I will be with my love, and seeing if things will work out between her and I. I am scared, what if things don't work out, what if things are not even semi-smooth, so many variables are not calculate-able, I really can not predict the possibilities. To much for me to calculate without any additional details. The only thing that I can count on is that Rizza, Francis, Angelee and who knows who else are trying to do everything that they can to help this relationship as much as they can.

Oh well, it is back to the data mines for me.
