Forgotten Happiness

          It was a good day. Weather is fine. The air blows gently and the birds chirp so clearly. As my day starts with this kind of beauty, I’m thinking if my day will be as beautiful as it was before or is there something good that will gonna happen to me. I started wondering if what it is or what will it be. So I started to groom-up and prepare myself going to office. As the time passes by, I'm still thinkin' what this enormous feeling inside me. Different thoughts came up to my mind whether it will be a good news from my boss; win a jackpot on a lottery; getting into a relationship; or maybe just a wonderful feeling. It's already lunch time and still no sign of what would gonna happen. I ate my lunch and go back to work. It is not a busy day, just the same, an ordinary day. No too much work or too much project presentations. It's already 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon and soon my work will be finished. But still, there is no sign of upcoming happiness. More beautiful thoughts came in and out of my mind. I can't even concentrate on my work, even though I need to make my daily report. The working hours ended and I didn’t finish the report that I am supposed to do. So I turned off my computer and prepared myself for going home. I prefer walking instead of riding in a car so I can think about what does this wonderful feeling means. So another idea came to my mind. I thought that maybe I can pick up a big amount of money while walking. But of course I knew it was just a thought. While walking home, I saw the mall where I used to buy my things and stuff. I decided to drop by and go inside to check if there is a big sale or something that would catch my interest. Luckily, it’s the same as my other normal days. Nothing’s new, no good stuff on sale. I left the mall and go home straightly feeling bit disappointed. However, the feeling of happiness inside me remains unchanged… Just a few blocks away and I can already see my little apartment at the corner of the main road. Then finally, I arrived at my house. I anticipated that somebody is waiting for me. But when I open the door, I see nothing. It’s just a ray of light coming from the window. I didn't feel any disappointment or frustration because I know that it was just an idea. I cooked my food and ate dinner. As the night grew older, happy thoughts kept on lingering in my mind. Few minutes before I go to bed, my phone rang. And guess who’s on the phone? Well she is someone very special to me, my future girlfriend (assuming! D). She greeted me a happy birthday! I am surprised. Whew! Now I remember! It is my birthday. After a short conversation with her, she said goodbye and I ended the call. It was very nice talking with her. Maybe, that’s the reason why I had a happy feeling the whole day. It was my special day and yet I didn’t remember it at all. I am so pre occupied of a lot of things. And because of this, I realized that it's better to start your day with a smile and be optimistic. If you’ll do that, for sure your day will be bright and happy. But most importantly, always thank God almighty for giving us new day, new chances and opportunities. Challenges and obstacles might always there too but don’t forget that God is with you. And with him, no matter how hard life would be, if you put all your trust in HIM, you can surpass and succeed in all your endeavors. Live life to the fullest... A forgotten happiness...

AutoCAD Shortcut Keys

          Hey there guys, jumping on to my second blog post in which i will be sharing some of the tricks and ideas i learned from using AutoCAD Application.

         First of all, let me discuss to you what is the meaning of CAD in the word "AutoCAD". It technically means any kind of computer aided drafting used in creating computer generated drawing and design which is basically first introduced as computer aided drafting and design, then later on replaced with CAD only. The word "auto" doesn't mean anything but just a reference to the company's producer, the Autodesk. That is the basic knowledge in learning new things. Study first the abbreviations to help you understand the basic thought before going any further

          Coming back in sharing tricks and tips in using AutoCAD, well the very first basic step in learning autoCAD is to know how to open and close a file. It's just the same as opening and closing a microsoft file. There a keyboard shortcut for opening, i.e., ctrl + o for open a file and ctrl + x for closing a file. Those shortcuts keys are not different from basic microsoft word hot keys and the AutoCAD shortcut keys. They resemble most of the same shortcut keys except for some additional functionality from AutoCAD. Those ctrl + A-Z from microsoft word compared to AutoCAD application only differs in some functions which shown as follows:

Shortcut Keys       AutoCAD                                              Microsoft Office

Next time I make a post regarding AutoCAD, I'll share you some of the shortcut keys for express tools that I frequently used in creating plans and designs. See you next time...

First Concept

I am creating this article for my first blog post. hoping that this one will get a good feedback. Writing an article for the first time is not an easy task. It takes too much time and effort just to think of what to write and what to say. You need to think of something that will gain the sympathy of your readers and soon-to-be followers or not. Whether it belongs to world news, entertainment, sports, medicine, science, technology, and other categories. You must be leastwise accurate on what you write and say because some individuals depends on what they have read, especially if it comes from internet. 

As we all know nowadays, most people became dependent from internet as the source of daily information and for their educational purposes. And also, encyclopedias this day become so quiescent because of internet as the source of most information.

So therefore, you need to think one of the best article to write for with accuracy and reliability. In this case, you must be very careful in choosing which information you should share. Doing this kind of information-sharing is not that simple because you need to read more article about which of these topic you are going to share.  Since this is my first time in sharing my thoughts about writing an article through blog post, hope that this one works. Need to think for my second post... What should i write then? Feel free to suggest something... And give me some help.. lols. :D
