it’s been a while. how long has it been?

more than a month? ahh yes, more than a month again with no updates.

why? (thinking of another alibi) well, i’ve been busy. it has been more than a month since i started at my new job and i never really had the chance to write a post. yup. even though i’m in front of a computer for about not less than 40 hours a week, i didn’t had the chance to start a new post, not even a draft. a very hectic schedule, it is.

it’s a new environment, so i needed to catch up with how things work in my new company. in my first week, i started off with drupal. i had a crash course on how drupal works, basic content management, the drupal structure, it’s themes and many more. it’s a good thing that i’m already used to using wordpress. they are somewhat similar. but still, since the approach in making the site is way different, i did have a hard time.

the first few weeks was really focused on drupal, and some minor systems administration tasks that needs to be done in between tasks in drupal. i also had some taste of c# last week, jumping right into intermediate to complex programming, which i had no real experience yet. but it was fun. and looks like this following week, i will again be back in the coding domain, c# still.

in just more than a month with the new company, it felt like i’ve been working for them for a long time. i don’t know how to explain it, but that’s how i feel. and it seems that every single day, i learn new things. and sometimes, it feels like ‘information overload’. but i like it. this is what i wanted. gain more knowledge, and expand my skill set. it’s fun and i’m enjoying it.

anyway, i’m already connected to the internet at home. yes, i don’t need to go to internet shops just to check on my emails during weekends. father and i purchased 3g kits from sun and globe. i’m using the modem provided by sun since it’s unlimited and my father uses the one from globe which is prepaid.

comparing the connections from the two 3g kits, sun has better connectivity inside our room and even in the living room. i don’t know the reason behind this but ‘coz i’m sure globe has higher signals when we compared the sun and globe mobile phones. oh well, as long as i’m connected to the internet while inside my room, i’m good.

okay, that’s enough. i think that’ll suffice for the lack of posts in february (haha). i’ll try to update this blog every week though, but no promises. ;)
