Case Formulation Report - Abnormal Psych

For just twenty minutes a year, the world seems like the empty moon. It feels lighter with 1/6th the gravity, like on the moon. I wish the world would freeze like this. So life could be 1/6th lighter. ~ Jung-yeon

Based on the girl main character from the 2009 South Korean movie "Castaway on the Moon."

Note: The only thing that my professor disagreed on was my diagnosis of Persistent Depressive Disorder (Dysthymia), that the symptoms can be explained by the MC's first two diagnosis - Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia) and Anorexia Nervosa, including her Avoidant Personality Disorder. Avoid over-diagnosis was the advise given to me. I still stand on my diagnosis though. Maybe it just needs better formulation/presentation. Or just ignore that part if you agree with my prof.

Homo Struct in C

This time I used Syntax Highlighter in posting the code. I still can't decide which is better this or Github. Just check this out for pros and cons. Apparently, SH wins over GH.

//homogeneous structure

#include<stdio.h>


  typedef struct Person {
    char name[100];
    int age_in_years;
    float height_in_cm;
    float weight_in_kg;
    // The pointers have to be of a specific struct type", i.e. the struct name 
    struct Person *mother;
    struct Person *father;
    struct Person *bff;
 } Person;


main() {

  Person mom = {"Emma", 40};
  Person dad = {"Silverio", 45};
  Person bff = {"Lily", 19};
  Person son = {"Hue", 19};
  son.mother = &mom;
  son.father = &dad;
  son.bff = &bff;
  
  
  Person maternal_grandmother = {"Calanday", 90};
  Person maternal_grandfather = {"Melicio", 90};
  Person paternal_grandmother = {"Amada", 90};
  Person paternal_grandfather = {"Manila", 90};
  
  son.mother->mother = &maternal_grandmother;
  son.mother->father = &maternal_grandfather;
  son.father->mother = &paternal_grandmother;
  son.father->father = &paternal_grandfather;
  
  
  
  // To access pointer variables within a struct data typed variable, the -> operator is used. 
  
  printf("Hi, my name is %s. My mother is %s. My father is %s. My BFF is %s.\n", son.name, son.mother->name, son.father->name, son.bff->name);
  
  printf("My grandmothers are %s and %s. ", son.mother->mother->name, son.father->mother->name); 
  printf("My grandfathers are %s and %s.", son.mother->father->name, son.father->father->name);
  
  
}

My First Ever GIF, fudge yeah!

I never knew how hard it is to actually make a gif of videos! It took me almost three hours, and I still have issues, the software keeps on crushing, urghh. Even though I've faithfully followed the tutorial here and here.
Making GIF is indeed like what Momiji has said!

I now give my sincerest salute to those who are a master to making GIFs. Now, I'm off to honing my GIFudging-Ninjutsu Technique!

P.S.:
I really believe that Momiji instantly fell in love with Ichiko, as proven in here. I ship them like crazy ~
( ^◡^)っ✂❤Momiji x Ichiko
~Love at first sight, kyah~

File IO Using Main Arguments

First, compile the code. 
Using the command prompt, the first argument is the file name. 
While the second argument is the name of the output file you want.
You may also specify the destination path of the file output on the second argument.

Bicycle - the greatest artifact of all time

My beloved bike~
Bicycling makes up a greater part of my childhood memory. Up until now, riding it every now and then helps me relieve all the pressures and worries from school. Just feeling the gush of wind as I ride it makes me feel like flying. Because for me, a bicycle is a better companion than a human person be it for transportation or for leisure purposes. The first-ever bike that I bought using my hard-earned money was my folding bike. It may not be of the “elite” type in terms of quality and design, but my bike has become an extension of me, of my body and senses for through this I can directly experience the realities, the ugliness, the beauty and the mystery of everyone and everything around me.

Frame/d Angst

          I think there are two kinds of people: those who fit well inside frames, and those who don’t. Frames? You might ask. I mean, family, nationality, sex, things like that . . . they’re all frames, aren’t they? They exist outside the body known as “I,” don’t they? I used to live my life inside a gilded frame, but I realized one day that the picture inside the frame was terribly poor. In order to redraw a picture, one has to remove it from its frame. - Double House 

          So when I got rid all of my hair on the so-called doomsday last December 21, 2012 according to the Mayan calendar, everyone around me were dumbstruck and kept asking “What are you?” Oh my. What a deep question, I thought, considering their state of inebriation. But how should I answer it? Hmm. I don’t really want to answer a question about biology.

Pagsusuri ng Nobela - Dekada '70

As nostalgic as I am, I just can't seem to move on from this high school project of mine. Glad it's appreciated and being put into use by other folks who need help. You can find my other stuff there too.

Five Shades of BLACK

When it was announced that we’re going to watch an Indian movie regarding a special child, what I had in mind was the movie Every Child is Special. Waiting for Saturday to come, my anticipation was gradually building up. I had already watched that movie once and I was so struck by the story, with matching lively song and dance numbers which made the movie even better and a memorable one. But I was wrong, so wrong.
For what was played on the laptop was an entirely different thing. Whether I would be delighted since I’ll get to see a new movie or not, that I did find out after two hours of watching it. That movie was Black, an after going home, I searched for its tidbits of information and read that it was produced last 2005.

San Francisco Flower

    I am not a flower lover. It just so happened that I was entrusted the key to our room. Thus starts the beginning of my everyday responsibilities of waking up five in the morning and doing lots of odd jobs every now and then. One major part of my routine was finding three fern leaves, or as we commonly call it – pakô. At first I have no idea what the hell is pakô so the “ayun oh, sa gilid, ayan ayan, hindi iyan, nasa harap mo na turuan portion” lasted around five minutes in our school garden. 

   Over time, I have developed my personal preference whenever I set out my journey of picking up pakô: lusciously green and of the same sizes. The next thing that I did was to fill the translucent and longitudinal vase with tap water. Now, where is this now vase-with-three-ferns displayed? It was placed at the center of our teacher’s table, surrounded by a calendar, pen holder and table trays. But it did not end there.

Chewed Longing

          I envy my grade five self-made papier-mâché project. I can’t believe that it will still be ‘alive’ up to this day considering my age at that time and that it was my first time making it. I remember that we were just generally told of what to do. And so I gathered pieces of used bond and manila papers and a piece of tin can. Firstly cooking gawgaw (cornstarch) so I can have plenty of paste, then cutting the papers into small pieces and finally pasting as many as I can so that eventually it becomes so thick, I foolishly paved my way towards the first part. After it completely dried up, I laboriously cut it into halves, removed the tin can, pasted additional layers of paper again and voila, my very cheap paper mache pen holder was done. And for beauty’s sake, I managed to add designs into it by painting it royal blue and pasting bits of egg shells shaped into flowers.

Noblesse Oblige: A CSN Story

           
“First, we are born in the same galaxy. Born of the same species. Our lifetimes overlap. The meetings between humans are so unlikely as to be miraculous . . . Everyone is made up of a collection of 1 percent chances. Thus, I’m dazzled by the fact that there are so many such miracles in this world.” – Arakawa Under the Bridge

            Monday. February 17, 2014. New Era University Special Education Program Department. In less than three hours, my life has become richer. In just a short span of time, it was as if I travelled back in the past and into the future of someone else’s life. A supposed mere stranger has become someone I would definitely never forget. I was brought in to his life story, not by himself but by someone who cares about him, by someone who’s more than proud of him. He is Nielsen. And Abby loves him.
