Review Notes: 1. Bash does not suggest negativity if you are from the Computer Science community. Bash is a keyword in the field of Operating Systems. It comes from "Bourne Again SHell". 2. MAN is also a keyword in Operating Systems. You will never get lost with a MAN because MAN means MANual. 3. In the filed of Operating Systems, The pound is more powerful than the dollar. The dollar sign $ is for any ordinary user. The pound sign # is for the administrator. 4. who u make sense when u is preceded by -. (Hence, who -u) But wait! Little Knowledge is Dangerous.

Sinoy din-ngem si gait mo? (Remembering ironic statements that were addressed to me)

For some reason, in my dreams last night, I was reminded about what some people told me along the way.... 1. "You are too good to be true!" ??? --> Reason why I was not considered :) 2. "You are very talented!" ??? --> A colleague and a classmate, who usually refers to my academic notes, because I usually get the best score in the exams, told me so, when I said I cannot do anything artistic because I have no talent at all. 3. "If only you grew taller, you are perfect!" --> When I was rushing to go to work when I was then a young professional, an on-looker stopped me just to say such as I was passing by.
