Updates

Its been a while since I posted. As usual, I have been very busy with my work that I could hardly find time to post here.

So maybe a quickie update will give you the idea as to how life is treating me (hehe). Well, first stuff, my mother had a successful operation. She is home now and recovering yet waiting for the result of the biopsy. I hope the result will be just fine.

My husband recently upgraded his phone, as his line was eligible for upgrade with the "nation's fastest 3G network" kunuhay. He is quite happy with his new phone right now and I am pleased too. My line is actually eligible for upgrade as well and I was considering getting an iphone. But then when I read about the extra charges by merely using the iphone, I decided its wise to just keep my eyes simple and not to get an iphone.

Example of the extra charge is the $30/month fee which we need to pay as a license or permit to use the iphone in the US. Then the unlimited text messaging that is part of our family plan is not applicable to the iphone. So in order for me to enjoy the unlimited text messaging, an additional $30/month is needed. So I decided its just too much for me and I should just choose another phone.

My husband runs like a maniac. Wowser! You should see him run. How fast can he run? He can run 10 miles in less than an hour! He can actually cover 5000meters ( 3 miles) in about 14minutes. He is getting it done! I am so proud of him.

I guess thats all I can think of right now. I just needed a whole day rest and I requested a time-off from work for 3 days, starting tomorrow till monday.

Be a Hacker!

I am talking about being a Certified Ethical Hacker. What is an ethical hacker? Wikipedia defines it as one employed by an organization who trushackerts him to attempt to penetrate networks and/or computer systems, using the same methods as a hacker , for the purpose of finding and fixing computer security vulnerabilities. A Certified Ethical Hacker has obtained a certification in how to look for the weaknesses and vulnerabilities in target systems and uses the same knowledge and tools as a hacker.

With the high demands for such hackers, it is wise to consider this as your profession. This is a self fulfilling job. Imagine how cool it is to be able to help companies tighten their IT security by being an Ethical Hacker. Its a big responsibility but its all worth it. And despite the pressing economy that we are facing now, the pay for an Ethical Hacker is on the rise. Reports say that overall IT security certifications pay grew 0.8 percent over the past three months, and 1.9 percent year-over-year.

With EC Council, you can be a certified ethical hacker. They also offer the following categories that you can choose from.
- Security Fundamentals
-Ethical Hacking
-Penetration Testing
-Computer Forensics

-Disaster Recovery
-Secure Programming

So its time to find a rewarding career with good pay and incentive. Be a Certified Ethical Hacker and be the company's IT security. Visit the EC council site now and learn more about this rewarding career.

BUSTED!

Last night, at around 11:50pm, my husband received a call from his son asking him to go to a specified location immediately. He sounded scared and was about to cry.

So my husband went to the place and found out that my STEPson got busted by 2 police officers. Ngano man daw?

Here is what happened. He was on his way home from the gym and he failed to stop completely on a 4-way stop intersection. We know (including my STEPson) that this is one of the spots that police officers watch every night (located on top of a hill).

So 2 police officers stopped him over and asked for his license. But the thing is, he DOESN'T have a license yet, just a learner's permit! whew! He is driving without a license! matay! So he got the citations for driving without a license and for not stopping at the stop sign. Double the trouble huh?

Lighter side of the story...The police officers were really considerate and nice, according to my husband. They could have called a towing company to have the vehicle towed (extra expenses for us folks), but did not do so. Instead they just let my husband drive his car home then go back there to drive my STEPson's truck. Good thing the incident happened few blocks away from our home.

So we will wait for the judge's decision by June whether my STEPson's most awaited driver's license will be suspended for another 6 months or not. Here in California, they are specifically careful in giving licenses to teenage drivers. So this incident must have cost my STEPson his license in June when he turns 16. We will see. Abangan ang susunod na kabanata...
