Linking back and related entries

For patron accounts, I've added one new feature: linkbacks. Any time a Tabulas user posts an entry that links to a particular entry of yours, you'll see it appear in the comment view of a page. This will help you discover who's talking about your entries on Tabulas, and it is a way to encourage you to link to other's posts as well!

I've also started processing Tabulas entries for the "Related" entries feature - for those of you who don't know, this is a magical feature which will try to find "related" entries that you've written. Sometimes it's accurate, sometimes it's not. But it's fun to see what entries will show up :)

Related entries are processed nightly, so you may have to wait a bit to get related entries. All patron account should have had their entries processed, though.

Hit logging

One of the bigger complaints I've gotten about the control panel redesign is the lack of accurate hit logging. To that end, I've added back one of the more popular features for patron accounts: viewing your recent visitor traffic logs.

Because of server limitations, you can only view your last 72 hours worth of data, but the data it provides should give you a better idea of where your traffic is coming from.

Check it out in your control panel.

A New Year's Resolution

[This is some kind of a thesis joke!]

I haven't done anything yet. Kill me now if you think I'm lying but I'm not. Wahaha! and i don't care but actually I care but i just dont give a damn so I still don't care. Wahaha! Malapit na ako magsubmit kay Jagz for the Octoberian Unite! Konti na lang! Wahahaha! Kaso, winelcome ako ni New Year eh! Tas marami siyang bnulong. Marami siyang pinaalala! And i need to make things right. Whaaha! Parang I need to make ammends daw.. wawawa.. so ayan sabi nya..


sabi ni two-face,
"I make my own luck"

sabi ni yay,
"2009 na, you don't have to wait for anything. what happens happen not because it's meant to be but because you did it and that made it 'a' meant to be.

"I know 2008 was neither good nor bad to you. it's just a so-so year. That happens to people who WAIT. they get nothing for nothing. So why wait, if you can't get anything in return? Why give if you're not sure about it? Why wait? Look what it's done to you! Stuck and stubborn! Move your ass!!! Start doing it NOW!! Party all you can when it's done!!!

"If 2007 was bad to you, that's because you made it bad to you. You branded it that way! But come to think of it, 2007 was not so bad. You were so blind to see the positive image it was trying to convey to you because you were dwelling in what it's giving you--and not what it's making you.

"So stop whining, stop wasting time and stop waiting!

"Just make your own luck! Go find a way to finish school on your own and at your best. MAKE YOUR OWN LIFE!


"it's not about celebrating Christmases and New Years Day alone next time. What matters is, you've got a life, you're holding it together and you're the Boss."

"Stop thinking you're going to be alone next time. Stop thinking no one's going to be there for you! Stop doing things that say 'goodbye'! Just be YOU and everything will be alright!:).

"Go get a life!"


WEEEE!!

2009, I'm welcoming you with a big bang boom! WOOH! Let's make our life juicy and sweet!:) (bwahahah)

interview with the ninja (part 2)

Years ago, i wrote an entry titled "AN INTERVIEW WITH THE NINJA".. and i had fun reading it again today. And since i missed my ninja strider hiryu..

 

here's

 

AN INTERVIEW WITH THE NINJA (part 2):

 

strider: so.. long time no see.

lu: yeah. three years and 9 months to be exact.

strider: i've read our previous interview.

lu: and?

strider: you were SO mushy back then.

lu: and i'm not right now?

strider: good point. so.. you've got someone now, huh?

lu: um.. yeah. hehe.

 

strider *whispers*: teka, ba't ba ako nag e-english?

lu: eh conyo naman tayo eh, ok lang kahit ano.

 

strider: pansin ko lang, ang innocente mo pa dati.

lu: sori naman kung ang sama ko nang tao ngayon.

 

strider: so.. i guess you're not so torpe anymore now, aren't you?

lu: people change.

strider: did you really?

lu: yeah, i guess. or maybe, i just wasn't as true to myself back then as i am now.

 

strider: so pano na yung dati?

lu: hahah.. yung crush ko since third year? wala na yun.. i'm so over it.

strider: old news na ba?

lu: hehe. yeah.. and meron na din siya eh, so i wish them both the best.

strider: good thing hindi ka umamin sa kanya noh?

lu: haha, well.. i'm not that stupid. and besides, "being close to the one you love is one of the privileges of being a friend..", right?

strider: you've been watching too much anime.

lu: wala na nga eh. busy ko na ngayon sobra.

strider: well, at least, you tried diba?

lu: yeah, at least.

 

strider: i see you're still wearing your mask.

lu: i take it off for some people.

strider: mahina na genjutsu mo.. alam mo yun?

lu: alam ko. pero okay lang yun. nakakatamad na din kasi minsan.

strider: sus, nagkaroon ka lang, ang lakas na ng loob mo. ingat ka pa rin tsong.

lu: sabi ko naman sayo, pag nagkaroon ako.. nothing else will matter right?

strider: sheesh. ang mushy mo talaga.

 

strider: so.. are you happy?

lu: ^_^

strider: talaga?

lu: ^_____^

strider: sure?

lu: taena can't you see my face?

*lui tries to upak strider.. whoosh!*

*strider makes ilag.. whoosh!*

...

strider: so.. kayo na?

lu: i don't think this would be the right place to talk about this..

strider: kaya ka nga nagbblog eh.

lu: ...

strider: so.. kayo na?

lu: ...

strider: silence means yes..

lu: ang corny mo gagu.

strider: para namang magkaibang tao tayo noh? bi-polar..

lu: fine fine. whatever you say.

 

strider: don't you think it was too fast? too soon?

lu: may expiration date daw eh, sabi ni kat. kaya grab the opportunity na agad. hahaha.

strider: you're laughing.

lu: and?

strider: wala lang.

 

strider: i remember you saying, "when it comes, it COMES..diba?"

lu: the motto of my life.

strider: as always.

lu: sabi sayo may future tayo eh.

strider: yeah.. 21 years late.

lu: my life's complicated, alam mo naman yun eh.

strider: sabi ko nga.

 

strider: so, this it really it, huh?

lu: hopefully, yeah.

strider: ah. well, time will tell.

lu: yup. it will tell. and for the moment, i'm just happy with the way things are.

strider: good chioce.

lu: sabi s'yo ok mging torpe eh!

strider: gagu! pasalamat ka may pumatol pa sayo!

lu: kapal ng mukha mo.



strider: well, i guess all i have to say is.. good luck sayo. alagaan mo siya ng mabuti, pero wag mo naman i-spoil.

lu: i know.. as long as lipay ming duha, its all good.

strider: pffft.. *chuckle*

lu: what?

strider: you're right. you didn't change.

lu: bakit?

strider: hopeless romantic ka pa rin.

lu: as always.

 

strider: hehe.. cge, 4:20am na. mag thesis ka na. magagalit siya pag di mo natapos plans mo tonight.

lu: hehe.. okay. nice talking to you again strider.

strider: me too. see you in 3 years?

lu: parang di tayo magkasama everyday diba?

strider: sabi ko nga.

lu: *grin*

strider: bye.

 

*swish* *poof* *disappear*

 

The End.

a date to remember

12.15.2008.

 

*chuckle*

 

It wasn't THAT memorable. or maybe it was. What was only barely a week ago felt much longer. hehehe. It's either time flies so fast, or it was just.. fast. Period.

Call it too early, (or too late for some people) but for me, i'm just glad things turned out the way they did. And I'm thankful for everyone who directly (yes, i'm talking about two squealing female bestfriends of mine) or indirectly (fate, destiny, the internet..) led me to this.

 

Whatever the reason was, I guess what's important is that, well.. I'm happy. We're happy.

It's my first time into this and I don't really know how it works.. Sue my geeky-boyscout background who believes in all things good and wonderful for that. But regardless of experience, I'm sure things will unfold in their own time.

 

...

 

I'm not really scared, but maybe I am a little bit tense.

Scared but at the same time curious about things i've yet to discover, things that I've always dreamed about..

Experiences that i've yet to have, but are as reminiscent as sunny days and summer showers during the days of my youth..

An unknown happiness that's all too familiar.

...

 

Could it be?

The one that's oftenly given, but seldom returned?

 

Could it be?

That weird sense of immense satisfaction.. fluttering.. butterflies?

 

...

 

 

I can't be so sure, but three things are for certain:

 

First, I am not a vampire.

Second, there's this part of me, and I don't know how dominant this part might be, who's scared, but just can't help but look into those beautiful eyes..

and Third,

 

I think I'm unconditionally and irrevocably falling in love.

 

...

 


^____^

 

 

P.S. - it's cheesy, i know. hehe. Merry Christmas everyone.

Currently feeling: hihihi

Find time, Jea

I'm blogging. yes, believe it or not. I think I'll really go crazy if I don't write somethings since I'm too busy to become one of my passions...so i'll start here.

I'm angry mostly at thesis but it hasn't really done anything to me, I'm just really angry that I can't do things anymore, why do oppurtunities arise at times like these? Why do people want to go on vacations now? why does everybody else have so much free time on their hands?

and why... why can't I use them as motivation to finish what I started?

instead of working, I find myself thinking, why I still do this? future? maybe. right now, it's definitely not for happiness, because right now, architecture is anything but happy. It's gruesome and lonely and it can drive people crazy. I should know, I was on the brink of insanity. 

I don't know what motivates me anymore. Those that used to do it, it means nothing anymore.

Right now all I wanna do is, hang out with friends, be a girl[whatever that means], flirt a little, relax, be passionate about other things...have fun. I have taken them all for granted. 

I'm really down as of this moment. Yes, I'm depressed. Why? About a lot of things, some I shouldn't even be really depressed about, I should even be happy for it but at the back of my mind I can help but get angry and lonely and jealous [haha]. It'll pass but since it concerns someone really close, I don't know how long it'll take for me to get over myself and it. So sorry.

Can I really find the time to the things that'll help me relax. I'm panicking here and I don't think that helps with my dilemma either. To find time is to lose time, can I really sacrifice that? It's a lose-lose situation, whatever I take.

Everytime I close my eyes all I can see is my demise. my end. my failure. I'm now helping myself, I know. I force myself to think of happy thoughts but then it turns into nightmares.

 

What do I need to do?

 

 

God, help me.

New gallery management in control panel

Hey everybody,

I've put the finishing touches on an update to the gallery in your control panel - I always felt the new gallery was more confusing than the old one.

This new one should be a lot simpler to use - and it will allow you to manage your images more efficiently (without having to edit each image individually!)

Please let me know if there are any problems.

I hope all of you are having a fantastic holidays.

- Roy

thesis issues

1st issue:

Desktop ba o Paparender ko na lang?

Advantages of a Desktop

- A workstation! haha! kung san i can freely do max ng di babagal! unlike sa laptop na konti plng nlalagay, mabagal na..

- Yung pera na gagastusin, nagagamit for a long period of time

- Mapapakinabangan ng lahat ng tao dito sa bahay

- I can segregate personal stuff from work/school etc plus the advantage pa ng backup and multi-tasking

- I get to choose the desktop! wahahha!

Plus,

- if ever mag-mmax ako, i can buy all the rpcs i want! sagot ni papa..

 

Advantages of a Renderer

- DI NAMAN AKO PRO SA MAX, marunong lang... So kung magpaparender ako, kahit papano, safe na yung graphics part.. and 3d-ing..

- well, matagal gawin lahat and matrabaho, at kung paparender ako, di ako ganung mapapagod.

- yung sabaw kong form, di ko alam kng panu ko gagawin... (whispers: ngrereplan ka naman eh! alter mo na shape), so more or less, its the problem of the renderer na

 

...

 

ok so that's it.

key points lang tlga:

(1) Sayang pera sa renderer kasi maglalaho lang agad yung pera, nagbayad ako tas yun na yun. pag desktop, well, long term tlga, yun nga lang, pagtyatyagaan ko tlga, if ever

(2) DI naman ako magaling mag max or sketchup.. so pag magpaparender ako, sure na maganda yung lalabas.

(3) Gusto ko, Yay's thesis, Yay's own hard work.. arte

 

OTHER SOLUTION:

(1) magdesktop na ako, tas pagtyagaan tlga, then hingi advice sa isang tao na marunong/magaling mag-max

(2) magdesktop, pag di successful ang pagmmax, MANUAL na..

 

*sayang pera sa renderer eh... more or less, may chance naman ako gawin lahat, kasi, kahit papano, mrunong naman ako mag-cad, so pwde na na ako ang mag-encode.. marunong naman ako magstaad pang structural.. marunong naman ako mag-max pang 3d.. YUN NGA LANG, sa lahat, di ako MAGALING!! whahahahaahah

*pag magpaparender, doble gastos. yung parender, at yung pagpapa-print... eh pag desktop, yung budget ng desktop, di naman sya considered as budget for yay's thesis, so parang di gnun kalaki gagastusin on my thesis part.

*wala pa akong nakakausap na renderer. whahahaha.. kaya di ko rin alam kng panu.

*at ako ay nagrereplan pa

 

ANYWAY, kung may comments ka, or pang-enlighten man lang kng anu na ba tlga ang pipiliin ko, magsabi ka lng. hehe. kasi as of now, more on desktop na ang naiisip ko. pahingi naman ng GOOD POINTS sa pagkuha ng renderer. ahahahha..

 

2nd Issue:

hilong hilo na ako sa bilog. haha kakareplan and all..

is it still worth it na magbilog ako? whahahaa.. damn...

maganda nga itsura but, yung plan, no matter how good a planner you are, di maiiwasan yung may kasablayan sa plan mo, well unless, malaking malaking bilog tlga yung ginagwa mo.. dahil kung super laki nun, eh di prng wala ng problema sa curve..

hahaah

damn.. is it still worth it?

or magcurve nlng tlga ako

wag na bilog

grbe sakit sa ulo

 

3rd issue:

okay, so its been 1 week na sobrang konti plng nagagalaw ko sa thesis ko. hahaha di ko ba alam, di naman sa tamad, pero, prng, wala pa ring break..

nakakainis yung feeling na, matutulog ka, pagpikit mo, naiisip mo thesis mo.. magiisip ka ng solution, nahihirapan ka, wala kang maiisip, may maiisip ka pero failure or its not just right, or wala..

gigising ka, maalimpungatan ka tas bgla ka magugulat, maiisip mo thesis mo.. tas walapa rin

pati paglabas mo, may makita kang building, naiisip mo thesis mo.. may makita kang something na related sa concept mo, naiisip mo thesis mo..

it's like, the haunting! di ka tinitigilan..

i just want a real break.

a really really good thesis-free day.

kelan kaya yun..

hahaha

i want to go out! have fun.. hahahaha kaso, thesis imprisons my mind. bwahahha

aun

sabaw na ako!!:)
