crazy zombie workmates

.

When this met me upon opening my bottom drawer a while ago, I didn't know if I should be amused, annoyed or intrigued (in a very disturbing way).



In the end, I settled for downright terrified. It looked a little too similar to Plants vs Zombies, don't you think?

inclusive growth

We were so stressed before February 20, but after THE meeting, everything is finally all set. I am so excited for March 20---Secretary Jimenez of DOT and Secretary Soliman of DSWD already gave their initial yes's! :)

And yes, we finally finished our invites! Cebu, Visayas, are we ready for inclusive growth? =)

A Google Valentine's (Yr 2)

One of the things I always look forward to seeing on February 14 is the quirky creation GoogleDoodles would make for this special day.

It didn't seem so long ago that I made a post about last year's Valentine doodle, and back then I honestly believe Google could never top that one. I'm so glad I was proven wrong once again (but this is Google--of course I would be proven wrong!)

yay


Photo_-_folder

It might seem petty to a lot of people, but not to me. This is an accomplishment worthy to be noted on history BECAUSE I DID IT (Yes, I am very excited about this)!

When I was tasked to do the layout of a project brief we will be distributing to our foreign donors for their field visit, I was not so hesitant about it until I realized I have to do a layout of the folder as well.

I panicked at first because I am not familiar with layouting folders. Booklets, brochures and signages I can do, but not materials that require more assembly than folding, stapling or perfect binding.
But Google saved the day. After acquiring initial info on folder templates and how I should make my material printer-ready, everything was a breeze already. And yes, I feel like one proud mama when I finally saw the fruits of my labour (and there were no complaints from the printing company I sent the design to).

I accomplished another milestone just because I did not give up. Yay! :)

Asada-senshu wins 4cc gold

Media_http25mediatumb_bimfm

Debuting the most difficult jump layout of the entire women's figure skating history since the 2010 Olympics, Mao Asada of Japan truly made some noise at the 4CC Figure Skating Championships in Osaka, Japan.

And the noise she made truly had some worth: her triple axel and 3-3 combos are back! Of course she won GOLD! Yay! This has to be her most consistent year: she grabbed gold for her two grand prix events, the Grand Prix Final and finally this.

I can't wait to see you explode on the World Championships this March, Mao-chan! You have to GET the gold, too. You just have to. <3
