			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I use to play around a lot with Photoshop back when i was in my early years of college. Now that i am temporarily free form stressful stuffs, I reunited with my friend PS <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/6.gif' alt=':paw' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I was browsing through my pictures when i saw this old folder containing the shots that i have taken during &#8220;A day with the Nikon Pros&#8221; seminar that i attended last year. I was just going to enhance the colors but i guess i got carried away and look at the result!</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="flower" src="http://i41.tinypic.com/30uegk8.jpg" alt="" width="621" height="412" /></center><br />
I super love it! I surprised myself <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/9.gif' alt=':chick' class='wp-smiley' />  . I never thought i am capable of doing something like this. I tried doing some photo manipulations before but i was never got contented on the results. This is the very first time that i actually felt proud of <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/2.gif' alt=':heart' class='wp-smiley' />  . The original photo can be seen below.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i43.tinypic.com/34qu2bm.jpg" alt="" width="614" height="406" /></center><br />
I got the idea from a video that i saw on youtube. I already forgot the keywords that I used to search the video <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/24.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> . Credits to deviantart.com for the flower stocks that i used for the hair.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve also tried using a picture of myself.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i43.tinypic.com/igwas6.jpg" alt="" width="605" height="340" /></center><br />
lol. just sharing <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/36.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> . I&#8217;ll surely miss blogging when I start my review! I think this will be my last post before I go to Cebu. Wish me luck guys! And will be blogging again soon (?) <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/4.gif' alt=':yay!' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is actually a very late post. We had our Senior&#8217;s Ball last April 10, 2 days before our graduation. As usual, we we&#8217;rent able to really prepare for this event. We we&#8217;re too busy complying our requirements and projects. Thank God we we&#8217;re still able to prepare everything with such little time.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="z" src="http://i44.tinypic.com/1gjf42.jpg" alt="" width="604" height="401" /></center></p>
<p>But that didn&#8217;t save us from arriving really late. I think we we&#8217;re the very last one to arrive.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i44.tinypic.com/f6vf7.jpg" alt="" width="607" height="403" /></center></p>
<p>There&#8217;s not much to talk about with this event. We just sat there, ate our dinner, listen to the host, watched some videos made by the staff as a tribute to both the graduates and the teachers, had our pictures taken and that&#8217;s it.</p>
<p>I think the highlight was when we had our dance competition. Every section was required to have a presentation. I laughed so hard with the &#8220;Mechanical Engineering&#8221; students presentation. Luckily someone took a video of it. Watch it! You&#8217;ll surely have fun!! <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/36.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><center><p><a href="http://pandasmurf.com/2012/04/17/seniors-night/"><em>Click here to view the embedded video.</em></a></p></center></p>
<p>I also made a short video. It&#8217;s my first time to edit videos so sorry if it&#8217;s kinda lame lol.</p>
<p><center><p><a href="http://pandasmurf.com/2012/04/17/seniors-night/"><em>Click here to view the embedded video.</em></a></p></center></p>
<p>Only 4 days left before i go to Cebu. I&#8217;ll be on hiatus i think for 6 months :( (i hope not, still waiting for that netbook <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/36.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  ).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One way for people to stay up-to-date about current events other than reading a newspaper is through magazines. Reading magazines help people in a lot of ways, not only are you exercising your reading and comprehending skills, you are also gaining knowledge about different topics like health, beauty, business, travel etc.  Though nowadays, people prefer the internet for gaining important information, reading a magazine can provide you the comfort of reading long informative articles without giving health risks to you eyes.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com/images/logos/medium/shape4.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="150" /> <img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com/images/logos/medium/us-weekly.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="150" /> <img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com/images/logos/medium/nursing2011.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="150" /> <img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com/images/logos/medium/the-economist.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="150" /> <img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com/images/logos/medium/1920.jpg" alt="" width="104" height="125" /></center><br />
Personally, now that I can no longer stat that long in front of the computer, i prefer reading from books or from paper. Reading from magazines or books gives me the comfort of doing whatever i want and go anywhere i want while reading. To those who are really into reading articles and magazines, you can go check this site out.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com/images/biglogo1.jpg" alt="" width="511" height="76" /></center><br />
They offer different magazine subscriptions with different topics that you might find interesting. What makes them unique from other similar companies is that they provide <a title="subscription addiciton" href="http://www.subscriptionaddiction.com" target="_blank">cheap magazine subscriptions</a> with a discount of up to 90%! You read that right,90%! I&#8217;ve read their FAQ page because i was curious on how they are able to give cheaper prices to their subscriptions and it turns out that all they do is negotiate with the publishers. I really wanted to know more about their company but they do not have an &#8220;about us&#8221; page. If you guys want to follow subscribe to their page on facebook, here&#8217;s the link &#8211; <a title="fb" href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Subscriptionaddictioncom/119389746398" target="_blank">Subscription Addiction</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The moment has finally come! I never thought i&#8217;d be able to finish this race for 5 years full of tears, sacrifices, and all kinds of stress there is. Finally I am one step closer to becoming an Electronics and communications engineer, take the board exam and hopefully pass.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a great feeling to know that I am now free from the hands of the school that gave me so many pain, I can&#8217;t even put into words how much I dislike the way some teachers treat their students, what they make us do things that are not necessary just to add on more burden for the student. Anyways here are some of the photos taken during my graduation <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/36.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  Credit to my family for being the photographer for that day <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/34.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><center><img id="pics" class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i43.tinypic.com/29cs853.jpg" alt="" width="575" height="381" /></center><br />
With my younger sister and my brother. Sometimes he likes to strike the peace sign when someone takes a photo of him.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i43.tinypic.com/b63vjq.jpg" alt="" width="575" height="381" /></center><br />
I am proud of myself for never giving up and for surviving every trials and hardships that are thrown my way. I became strong, resourceful and most of all i became independent.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i43.tinypic.com/2crvgj4.jpg" alt="" width="575" height="381" /></center><br />
Our section weren&#8217;t able to attend any graduation practice scheduled. While other courses are already getting ready for the big event, we are left in our department building making projects, complying (unfair) incomplete grades and chasing our teachers. The photo above was taken right after i got my diploma.</p>
<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="a" src="http://i42.tinypic.com/33ykfgh.jpg" alt="" width="575" height="381" /></center><br />
Me and my family didn&#8217;t finish the graduation. There&#8217;s too many of us and we were afraid the program would end really late. Lucky me, i was able to sneak out of the gymnasium without any school guards looking.</p>
<p>The happiest moment of my life actually was when i knew i am included on the final list of graduating students that was a day before the graduation. I was in our house at that time and my friend texted me. As soon as i finished reading the message tears just started streaming down my face and i was like a crazy person inside our room, jumping, smiling and crying lol. The graduation was just an ordinary event for me, nothing special. Its not about what i was wearing, who i&#8217;m with, where i was and what i&#8217;m going to receive. It was all about the honor that you bought to yourself, to your parents, to your friends and most of all to God! I will never forget my student days in college.</p>
<p>Soon i&#8217;ll be leaving my home Davao to take my review in Cebu. I&#8217;m nervous and confused about everything. Questions after questions keep popping out of my mind. It will be my first time to live away from my family for 6 long months. I hope Cebu will be nice for me and for my classmates.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As some of you might already know, yesterday was my birthday <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/5.gif' alt=':music' class='wp-smiley' /> . This particular birthday&#8217;s got to be the most unique out of all the birthdays that i had so far. Mainly because i spent my day in school working for our project and doing what our heartless professor wanted us to comply. I went home stressed, tired, and defeated.</p>
<p>On my home, i really wanted to cry. but i held back my tears because i know my sister&#8217;s will be home waiting for me and i don&#8217;t want them to see me crying on my birthday. So when i arrived home, i acted happy but they already know that I&#8217;m tired from school so there&#8217;s no need to fake that part.</p>
<p>Tears came when I&#8217;m finally alone in our room. Everything&#8217;s just so stressful and i know it&#8217;s been stressful for my family too. Up until now, there&#8217;s still no assurance for graduation. All other courses are already having their graduation practice, us? Still busy complying requirements the best and fast way that we can.</p>
<p>Good thing these people below came and cheered me up. They never really fail to surprise me when I&#8217;m having the worst birthday ever. They did the same thing 2 years ago and I&#8217;m really thankful to have them as friends! It&#8217;s a very simple surprise but it helped me a lot in so many ways! <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/2.gif' alt=':heart' class='wp-smiley' />  I&#8217;ll be forever thankful to God for giving me perfect friends and family!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s our little celebration @ 12 midnight April 4, 2012</p>
<p><center><img class="aligncenter" title="a" src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1yk6u4prB1qg6dcdo1_500.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="331" /></center></p>

<p>And the banner that they made with their messages!</p>

<p>God really knows what He&#8217;s doing. Thank you! <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/2.gif' alt=':heart' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey guys! How&#8217;s everybody doing? I know i have been away from this blog for almost 4 weeks ( i think). I have been really busy with our projects, exams, quizzes etc. Everything about school is really stressful and tiring especially for graduating students. While others are now happy and are now officially graduates of their school, me on the other hand is still busy and still had lots of things to be worried about. I just can&#8217;t wait for everything to be over!</p>
<p>Well anyways, i&#8217;m here to blog about the prizes that i won from sis Ayah&#8217;s 2nd Anniversary giveaway. I actually received my prizes two weeks ago, i think. And i&#8217;m totally in love with the accessories!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://pandasmurf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/DSC0521.jpg"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-2669" title="_DSC0521" src="http://pandasmurf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/DSC0521.jpg" alt="pic" width="532" height="352" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have discovered the ultimate cure for boredom, then congratulations, because you are a genius. Boredom can attack at any time. One moment you can think of several activities to fill your spare time, and the issue is in choosing which one to pursue. The next, every single thing that normally maintains your interest no longer has that effect.</p>
<p>It can depend on your mood, how often you have done something, or what has happened to put you in a funk. I mean we all enjoy different things: a game on <a href="http://www.foxybingo.com/" target="_blank">www.foxybingo.com</a>, being nosey and Facebook stalking, playing tennis etcetera. Even our favourite projects and hobbies can lose our interest though. How do you evade this boredom?</p>
<p>Firstly you need to work out why are bored in the first place. Is it because your friends cancelled your plans at the last moment, and now you have time to fill up? Perhaps you have a routine that needs a shake up? Are you tired? Once you have worked out what is wrong, you are in a much better position to fix it, and entertain your mind again. For example, if you are tired, then a walk around the park or shops could wake you up.</p>
<p>The second step is to do something totally new. You have to break the routine in some form, except at obvious times like at work when you are paid to continue with it. Allow yourself to entertain the notion of doing something completely out of your comfort zone, and do it. Repetition is a common source for boredom, after all.</p>
<p>You should also try and change the way you think about things. For example, if you are always putting a negative spin on your life, your mind is more likely to spiral into a stupor, which is the emotional state boredom feeds off of. Give yourself powerful goals and a positive attitude, and you&#8217;ll fight off boredom like a pro.</p>

<p>Energy is a very important resource for us to have. Without it, we would not be able to carry out our every day task or even survive a day without having energy or electricity to power our computers, machines, systems etc. But only few methods are capable of providing enough amount of electricity to the millions of people needing it and unfortunately those methods are those which can greatly harm our beloved environment. If we are not careful, it might even lead to the depletion of our natural resources and if that happens, i have no doubt that  life will be much more difficult for us.</p>
<p>Wind energy is one of those methods of providing power without harming anything about our environment. Though it is not ideal to use when it is for larger industries, it can be perfect for a small scale environment. Not only is it clean but it is also very safe both for the people and the environment. Wind turbines can power your small home, office etc. <a href="http://www.windturbinestar.com/wind-turbine-cost.html">wind turbine cost</a> of course will depend on what type of wind turbine  you are aiming for. But there are also cheap wind turbines available. If you are planning to set up your own, here are some important parameter costs you should keep in mind. First one is the turbine cost, tower cost, installation cost and the maintenance cost. once you&#8217;ll grab hold of this, you are one step closer to having your own wind power system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><img class="alignnone" title="Teddy" src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzxge6QrsR1rodn4ko1_500.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="331" /></center>What&#8217;s really hard about my situation as a student is the question, &#8220;Am i going to graduate this year or not?&#8221;. My father keeps on asking me when&#8217;s the schedule for our graduation and i am very hesitant to answer. Every time the idea of graduating cross my mind, i feel really nervous and start to think about the what if&#8217;s. What if I fail this one subject? What if i fail to pass what is required? And what if i lose it and started yelling at our professor who is really determined to pass as little students as he can? Possibilities. It&#8217;s really scary.</p>
<p>I really want my college days to be over. I don&#8217;t want to waste additional year of trying to impress our professors who&#8217;re not even doing their part. I mean, we are paying you aren&#8217;t we? So at least, teach us properly and give your best. It&#8217;s not even the students&#8217; fault anymore, it&#8217;s the inability of the teacher to understand fully his/her job. It&#8217;s their fault, not ours. And yet, we are the ones who suffer for it.</p>
<p>(Takes a deep breath) Sorry about the rant, i just can&#8217;t blurt it out at school. At least i can say it here. I hope none of my classmates or teachers see this. Though i highly doubt i&#8217;ll be in trouble if ever they see it. But it&#8217;ll be awkward.</p>
<p>Anyways, i just can&#8217;t keep feeding my mind with negative possibilities can I? I have to keep moving on and trust God with His plans for me. It&#8217;s really difficult, but i cannot stop tomorrow for coming so I might as well face it keeping my dreams in mind and the hope that everything will be alright.  <img src='http://pandasmurf.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/2.gif' alt=':heart' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
