Math! What Happened to you? (-_-)

So its been 3 weeks since my college life started,
its been interesting so far

besides learning that all of my classmates are avid gamers and techies, the subjects have been really confusing as to their topics, particularly BASICON.

BASICON is the only computer subject I have this term aside from COMPRO1
it means Basic Computer Concepts, I didn't know back then what basicis in computer.

Well, after 3 weeks of staying in DLSU, I have finally learned 2 things:
1. BASICON is Computer Math
2. You Never study Computer and Basic Math together, it'll confuse you.

How confusing?
1 + 1 =2

simple eh? its basic addition, its what we've been learning since our kindergarten days. And that's MATH.

Here's how 1 + 1 is in COMPUTER MATH:

1 + 1 = 2................

1 + 1 = 2 w/ subscript 16

1 + 1 = 10

1 + 1 = 0000 0010
OR
1 + 1 = 0000 0010.0000

1 + 1 = 1

1 + 1 = 3 w/ subscript 8

Sabaw noh! I can't use those in normal math!
But it doesn't stop there..........
To think that they're torturing us with numbers........ they've cruelly added letters and words in the problem......

For Example:

X times(x) O = O

X + 1 = 1

(x + y) (X + z) (y + z) = (x + y) (X + z) (two of the X's are darker than the others)

and the simple

true + true = true
true + false = false

once again. I can't use this on normal math
no wonder i keep saying too much numbers on Plurk (-_-)
and you know what the worst part is..........


I AM LOVING EVERY SINGLE BIT OF IT!!! XD \m/

JOLO


*is it me or am I getting crazy with math?*

Feels Like Vertigo!!!

Good Evening readers!

I just came back from church
and currently LSS to:

Vertigo by U2 \m/


In other news,

Today is Lorenzo Mendoza Escobar's birthday...... guess I should greet him here again
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY ENZO!!! :D"

I'm currently playing "Hexyz Force" on my PSP? Anyone playing it? Inform niyo ako.
Ok! I think that's it for today.

Q&A (June 25, 2010)

Tonight's Question comes from Trisha Mae Angelica Gallardo of O.B. Montessori Center and an anonymous perosn from formspring.me

Trisha Asks:
Q:"Jolo, will you follow my blog? :>"

A: Sure, Trisha..... I think I already am following you. Though 1 of them is private and I can't access it

She/He Asks:
Q: If a radioactive hamster bit you and you got mutated to have hamster like skills. What will you do? XD

A: Well, I will become "Hamster-Man". a nighttime crime fighter who chomps enemies with his giant rat like teeth and chase enemies with my stamina that can last as long as a single person can.


A: Prostate Exam? I can't be pregnant since i'm a boy.

I hope these help you answer your questions. :)



If you want to pop up a question for me......... simply IM me in my YM "sorabalares" or ask me in formspring "http://www.formspring.me/jbalares"

"The Muhns" Where are they now?

Today marks my 3rd week in college (I think)

My HS life is already finished and I'm starting to get interested in the subjects i'm taking
Also note: me and my group "the muhns" are already separated, though that doesn't mean we aren't friends anymore...... we just can't hang like we used to in HS.

So what happened to "the muhns" where are they now? Here's a quick look at them

Ace Mejia: Ace is currently studying at De La Salle
University taking up Electronics Communications Engineering. If I hear him in DLSU's local radio station. I'll be sure to let you know

Charles Patricio: Charles is also studying at De La Salle University taking up Commerce w/ a Major
in MFI. I met up along with his friends during week 1.

Jolo Balares: yours truly is also studying at De La Salle University taking up ComSci w/ a Major in CSE. I've been doing great so far; new friends, new way of going home and a new romantic interest :> XD.

Lorenzo Escobar: Enzo is taking up Pharmacy at Centro Escoba---... I mean Centro Escolar University. I hear he's been voted as Block President. What a way to start college XD.

Meiji Gallardo: My mae-san Meiji is taking up Food Management w/ a Major in Food Service in O.B. Montessori Center. She's been striving hard to adjust at college. She's been having professors that were teaching her since grade school.



Karl Robosa: Karl is taking up Nursing in University of Sto. Tomas. He's been doing well at school. I just hope that he'll be able to get his girl this time at college.




Alban Batacan: Alban has been silent since March, though he was able to tell me yesterday that he studies at University of the East taking up Physical Therapy i think. I don't know what he's taking up next though. The Next muhn is the only near link I have to him.

Kevin Te: Kevin, the only link I have near Alban, is also taking up Physical Therapy in the University of the East and is planning to start Medicine or Surgery afterwards. He's also my new neighbor here in my village, only living a few blocks away from my house.


So there you have it...... the muhns are inching a few steps closer to what they wanna be when they grow up. Leaving only the bad things behind HS and retaining the good memories they have cherished since they were born (I think XD). The muhns may look separated since they're in different school, but they're just actually leaving for a while....... only to come back to share the experiences they all have in college. (IMBA quote!!! san mo nakuha yan! XD)

Q&A (June 25, 2010)

Today's question comes from one Lorenzo Mendoza Escobar of CEU

He asks:
"Jolo, why was your old Blogspot so detailed???"

Good Question Lorenzo........
well.... besides the fact that I'd like to keep things very detailed and organized........ I could say that my blogspot is a personal reflection of what I really am....
I hope that helps you.


If you want to pop up a question for me......... simply IM me in my YM "sorabalares" or ask me in formspring "http://www.formspring.me/jbalares"

Blogspot Project?

Someone's asking me about what happened to the "Blogspot Project"
which I was dedicating to the set of friends I had in HS...........
well I ran out of ideas and inspiration to actually put it

So as of now i'll have to close that project.
But if the time comes that I have the initiative to finish it.
then I shall.....
till then

JOLO
