Today, 1 January 2004...

Waking up late at 10 in the morning and almost every soul residing in this house was out, I decided to cook rice only since I know a lot of food was left from last night's revelry. I did not partake in the merry-making but instead joined the family in saying prayers and thanking the Good Lord Above for the blessed and wonderful 2003. This is one ritual we never fail to accomplish since the time I was able to keep memories through this head of mine.

Anyway, after a reunion with the kitchen, I decided to sweep the floor and mopped it clean. I decided to wipe off the computer table to remove the dust. I was not so successful.

Feeling so hungry, I decided to take my brunch. A cup of hot choco and 2 ham spread sandwiches - 1 which was 2-layered and the other 3-layered - filled me in. While munching on, I turned on my computer and decided to clean my drive with unwanted files. I hate to see disorganized folders and unnecessary documents. Better trash them. While doing this, I uploaded the pictures I have taken using my mobile phone. Pictures included were shots from my Cebu vacation, Corregidor trip, mini-birthday celebration of my former superior, my mom's , some random shots of me and pals and places; After which, I organized them in to labeled folders for easy viewing.

Being done with it, I started to update my blog. I know this will take time for a lot of things had happened. Maybe I will savor the feeling of working in front of the computer, not rushing to do some work but writing off some thoughts tumbling in my head.
