Intrude

intrude

so brief your soft lips touches me
to yearn it all throughout eternity
short are the moments you hold my hands
yet, in my soul, you are intruding me

to hold on is a drop of tormented will
but my passion roars deep behind my words
Even in clouded eyes i watch you fly away
still i speak not with the words i longed to say

as the clouds engulf you in their arms
i just wish i'd been born with wings
instead with this monolith of regrets

Most Wanted Guild

"Welcome back to the Tantra World", my imagination announces as I bought my char from the hands of the devil. I was onced delivered from its seemingly eternal temptation. Its golden chain engulfed me before like a sweet fresh honey but as deadly as a venom. Last May I was freed. I quit. Totally. That was when I decided to live my life back in the philippines. Last February 2008, I got bored in the hotel. So I decided to turn on my laptop, hooked it up on the internet, and, just out-of-the-blue, ran Tantra. And there the updates ran, and I logged in. And a familiar world opened up right in front of me, that was Exile. Yes. And I found out that I was a multi-billionaire still. The treasure that I once left when I decided to leave Tantra was still kept intact, fixed, and untouched. Everything was all under the mercy of my treasure. Shoppable, buyable, and saleable. But wait, it was then that I realized my armors were all obsolete. So, I updated my inventory and, wallah, it was just in an instant.

So here I was, after buying a new level 200 char and changed its god to Shiva, I was comfortable with the coolest Shivan guild in Samadi. The Most-Wanted, the strongest, most kunatz, and most feared ashram.

Let the temptation begin. Let me not resist. Let me be drowned to your sweetest death. *_*

Happy Birthday to Me

Its been the 5th times wherein I am working or alone during my birthday, and no celebration but overtimes are just alone with my window shopping. Let me recall the history: (Oh my, i hate this...) :D

Nov 2002 - Alone, just came back from the province and spent the rest of the day window shopping. But I met someone significant on this day :D

Nov 2003 - Business trip in Fukuoka, overtime until 1AM

Nov 2004 - Took a leave of absence, but ended up watchin movie alone because everyone else was busy until 9PM. I had spent a dinner with friends around 9:30pm. Grrrr they starved me waiting...but fun anyway.

Nov 2005 - Working in NCOS, Tokyo.

Nov 2006 - Testing in Hachiyama, Shibuya, Tokyo

Nov 2007, today - "Hi all. The PHS files have been stored in the following nas1 directory: file://nas1/webcustcon/Step10/Testing/BugReports/5th Iteration\SecurityTest" - (Do I have to say the words?)

See? :D My birthday wish today is to spend my next birthday in Mulan, pleeaasseeee.

What's with the October

There is something with this month that was going and growing in the background. It is called Iterations. Yes you heard me. Dont doubt on what you had just read. Wonder what is it?

In the world of Software Development Life Cycle, there are many approaches. NSP is using Waterfall approach. It is an ideal, common, and classic style of developing softwares. It follows the Design - Implement - Test pattern. Just take for example of someone building a building.
But what if during the application of finishing touches of the buildings, the owner suddenly realizes he needs a mansion and not a building, or instead of he needs 5 elevators instead of 1?
In this cases, wherein changes should not be a problem but factual part of development, Waterfall sucks. Yup. And its hard.

That is why I (with Fukunaga-san, my NCOS boss) introduced Agile style to NSP. In Agile, changes are bases of development. Its like a coffee shop. You line up the customers(specifications), and serve each customer with the coffee(deliverables) he ordered. If a customer returns its order for changes (more sugar, less cream, etc), then serve him according to the queue in a line (Iterations). The hardest part here is to convince, instill, and set the goal clear in each NSP personnel's head. Here is one of the emails I received about questions and inquiries about the new development style.


Headache? No. Fulfillments. Worries? Yes. Because I know I am in a company full of politics, swarmed with crab-mentalist people who are afraid of innovations and changes. Hehehe
