T he Gamers Bill of Rights

I was browsing the web when I found this on a forum based website

The Gamer’s Bill of Rights:

1. Gamers shall have the right to return games that don’t work with their computers for a full refund.
2. Gamers shall have the right to demand that games be released in a finished state.
3. Gamers shall have the right to expect meaningful updates after a game’s release.
4. Gamers shall have the right to demand that download managers and updaters not force themselves to run or be forced to load in order to play a game.
5. Gamers shall have the right to expect that the minimum requirements for a game will mean that the game will play adequately on that computer.
6. Gamers shall have the right to expect that games won’t install hidden drivers or other potentially harmful software without their consent.
7. Gamers shall have the right to re-download the latest versions of the games they own at any time.
8. Gamers shall have the right to not be treated as potential criminals by developers or publishers.
9. Gamers shall have the right to demand that a single-player game not force them to be connected to the Internet every time they wish to play.
10. Gamers shall have the right that games which are installed to the hard drive shall not require a CD/DVD to remain in the drive to play.

I loved every part of this hehe

I'm just wondering when will we have a person running for government who will support these rights....

when will....

The fight with the Black Cat

that annoying cat has already pissed me enough
it's been days now and that cat wouldn't leave us alone

here's the story:
since its only a short time before
we perform that pain in the ass "sabayang pagbigkas"
and every once in a while
we held meetings or practices
at the lover's lane (to those who don't know that is, it's the long way in front of the main building of U.S.T.)
well anyway every meeting we had, that black cat
always passed by in front of our group
and now it's kinda irritating

is that cat giving us a sign?
maybe its saying that we should just give up on our piece
and just accept the reality that everyone will have a failure once in a while
or maybe that cat loves to piss others?

only 2 weeks remaining before we perform
and to tell you all the sad truth
we really haven't made any progress
we haven't even finished the 1st page of the piece

and now im having doubts if
we could really get this done

I mean there are still the actions to go with the piece
also the sound effects, and also the very important costumes

Panic, panic, panic
that's all what I'm doing right now
for i really don't know where to begin

Just when I thought I entered my personal hell
not only is the exit the size of a grain of rice,
inside my personal hell are little pain in the ass
gremlins pissing me to the point
where my brain will internally com bust

o God help us all...

The war has only begun

I'm not going to lose hope
I'll show them my true potential
Before I walk out of that gate, I'll give them something they will never, ever forget

I just saw my prelim scores and I have
to say I'm not pleased with it
to tell you the truth, I hate it

I saw some high, average, and failing scores
I really got pissed back there

thankfully, my grades for the preliminaries
are not on the dangerous level
meaning, I still have the chance to show them of what I can do

before the finals, I'm really going to make up for those failing scores
with the following quizzes

I think I just entered my personal hell
and this time, the hole outside is only the
size of a grain of rice
No matter for I'll make that hole the size of an elephant "yeah go go go!"

I wonder how the previous engineering students made it to the top?
they've must been serious in everything they did

taking no space for mistakes and taking no room for arrogance

I remember what my theology prof. said to us just today
he said "never look to your classmates as your enemy or rival, look to him or her as your ally always for they could be the people you meet on your way up or your way down"

as always wish me luck readers
erhmm... I mean wish all of us classmates luck
for i want to see all 49 of us together at graduation
1 - 4 For The Win!!!

I'm getting sick of this...

did this situation happen to you:

"you didn't want to take the blame for others
yet when something wrong happens, your always
the number 1 suspect though you had nothing to do with it"

this kind of situation always happened to me
and i gotta tell you that
I'm really getting pissed of
because of this

Why is it that people always blame others
for the mistakes which the accused had nothing to with it?

there's no such thing as family, or promises
when it comes to blaming others
and that's when the word "Traitor" comes into the scene when the rightful person gets pointed out
or in Filipino terms "Traydor"

lets face it, if we get blamed for mistakes of others then we get pissed off
but if we were the one who made the mistake, we also blame others
talk about not accepting your mistakes

maybe i should put up hidden cameras around the house
so that i'm not always suspect #1
so that when i proved my innocence, i'll say "In your face noob" ahihihi

off topic:
I love the cold breeze at night, i feel so calm
gives me a feeling of peace
yet it also gives me a feeling of loneliness
I sometimes feel that there should be someone sitting in the empty space beside me
holding hands, hugging, until the glorious sun rises

Recovering from the Preliminaries...

Guess recovering from the prelims took longer than i thought
Damn that was a killer!

I never thought that the test would be that easy yet difficult
Who would have thought that theology and values ed.(yes values education)
would be tougher than algebra and chemistry put together

now that I'm fully recovered from that blasted
tests, now I'm unsure if i passed or failed the tests

Why were tests even invented?
Was it just to prove that something entered our thick skulls?
or was it just invented for us to be tormented?

When you think life graces on you,
suddenly you enter your personal hell
and every unlucky shit explodes in your face

then when you think all hope is lost
and when you think God turned his back on you,
an angel comes and grabs on your hand to help you stand up

between Friday and Monday i felt all of that
talk about a roller coaster of mixed emotions
I hated and loved life this weekend

I wonder what awaits me when final exams come?
Will I lose hope again? then instead of a helping comes
will a hammer fall and crushes me to the ground?

I just don't care right now what happens to me
because I can accomplish anything I set up my mind to
with the help of family, friends, and of course that angel that gives me a helping hand

I wonder what happens tomorrow morning?

Well goodnight readers and have a nice slumber
in your feather like beds

au revoir

P.S.: I'm just wondering how the hell did i get hooked to Demi Lovato's song "This is me" Life sure is weird yet fun and difficult at the same time

Preliminary Exams: a murderer dressed in paper

Open up the textbooks
summarize all those notes
try to remember all the past lectures...
arm yourselves for battle with murderers...

murderers dressed in paper
the only possible weapon against them are
your pens and your minds...

as much as possible
don't let even one of them hit you
a single blow is fatal enough

after this post, the only time i'll
post again will be next week
because for now i'm preparing my poor old mind
for a ferocious battle

one week of torture
one week full of questions to be answered
one week full of worry and doubt
one week full of nothing but endless memorizing and answering

why do prelims have to be killers
arghhhh!!!
even thinking of words is becoming difficult
because of this blasted tests

I feel like i want to hang myself

Why does learning need to have tests?
why can't it be just all learning?

O God help me to comprehend
all this endless information
to fit in my poor old brain

now before i end this worthless post let's do the positives and the negatives

Positives:
-we only need to be in school for 2 hours
-no need to carry those heavy blasted textbooks
-no assignments
-no pain in the ass quizzes for this weak
-finally, no classes on saturday

Negatives:
-studying is torture
-so many terms to be memorized
-just studying makes you scared of the test already
-all the tests you took before are nothing compared to this
-finally the most painful one, NO ONE WILL REMEMBER YOU IF YOU FAIL

goodnight everyone
have a nice slumber
for tomorrow the no limits studying begins
is this it? is this finally it?

giving out quizzes isn't allowed???


I texted my blockmate
just this morning
while i was riding the jeep to school
i asked him "ui meon ba quiz sa phist?? kung meon 2ngkol saan??"
after a few moments he replied with this statement
"bawal mag quiz ngaun. hindi pa kc tapos ang lesson eh."

the focus is on the statement saying
that it is not allowed to give out quizzes
and not the statement that the lessons aren't finished yet

maybe i'm just overreacting or not
but i find it to be funny
because if your the prof teaching the test,
you have the power to give out quizzes anytime
regardless if it is announced or not

so for a minute think about this:
"what if you are a professor of this
specific class teaching Philippine history
then you suddenly gave out pop quizzes
then suddenly a student of yours suddenly slammed
his armchair while standing up then saying
BAWAL KA MAGBIGAY NG QUIZ DAHIL HINDI PA TAPOS ANG LESSON!"

if i was the professor i would say
"TUMAHIMIK KA GAGO!! O GUSTO MO I SINGKO NA KITA PARA SA BUONG YEAR NA 2?!"

it's a good thing that our professor announces 95% of
her quizzes but i think i'll panic instantly if a pop quiz
suddenly happens

final words : i dont mean to offend my blockmate if he's reading this since i'm only joking around peace :D

My own thoughs about my future

hmmmm my future eh?

well i guess if I work
hard enough, then maybe
there is a possibility that I really
will be an Engineer

on the other hand, if I
continue to act as a lazy moron
then my future is sealed
to remain living with a lost cause

but what if i mix both?
then maybe just maybe
I'll be an engineer but with a more joyous life

ever thought that in the future you'll be alone?
well i do and i say to you
whatever profession that you achieve
no matter how hard it is to achieve
It will be useless to share your success with no one

wanna be the richest man but without anyone in your life to care for?
id rather live normally but with friends
i don't think anyone could live a long time without any friends
know anyone?

bottom line is reaching your goals are a waste of time if it means to live by yourself and everyone you once loved and cared for will disappear into oblivion as a trade for your success....

sounds like having a deal with the devil itself only instead of your soul, you trade everybody

Just when you though work ended, it got a lot more worse

fuck all of these school works

just when you thought they stopped,
they got a whole lot worse
and to add it up,
prelims are just a week ahead

it feels like i wanna hang myself
because of all this stress
not like high school wherein
work was never this heavy

how the hell can i survive this 5 years of my life?!
i feel like i wont even reach one year
and because prelims are just a few days ahead,
quizzes and assignments are going on overtime

it will take a miracle to finish all of these

all i have in my arsenal are my family, friends, a pen, and GOD
against the nuclear bombs worth of school work of the professors
who will win this epic war? the crazy students or the monstrous profs. ?
