Allowance ko ha.. Pati na refund! Do not forget! Heheheh...

I love you Mare!

MADALING ARAW BLUES...

It's exactly 2:03am when I started to type this entry, and silence runs the morning air. Everyone else here is sleeping, except me. Buti na lang walang pasok bukas (President's Day! Yey!).

Kakatapos ko lang magbulay-bulay tungkol sa mga photocopying machines. I just finished writing my reflection paper for Pinoy due on Tuesday (Yey! Swak sa schedule).

I haven't been myself lately. Maybe it's because of all that stress that I've been fed up with during this hell month. Nakakainis dahil hindi ko gaanong naoorganize ang mga thoughts ko lately--and it worries me because I need to function well enough for my Physics long test (which was delayed) and Lit Orals (Poetry...) on Wednesday. I need to become a good essay critic on Thursday for our workshop in Pinoy, plus I need to seek the researcher lurking in the recesses of my brain for I need her on Friday for my panel defense in English. Argumentative Research paper pa talaga (pwede ba itong marecommend sa Pisay na bagong branch ng research?)! My topic is about post-coital contraception--'yung means of contraception after having sexual intercourse--especially focused on the use of the Morning-after pill.

Tama na. Rest ka muna Gem... Hinay-hinay lang Ineng...

Matutulog na ako. Mahaba-habang araw pa bukas.

>>>

Belated Happy Birthday ALEC!
ikaw ang natatanging Mount Maquiling ng buhay ko.

Next post, puno ng mga pictures at mas maayos na entry.

Sorry... Sabog-sabog na ako.

BREAK MUNA

I would be on blog leave for the next few weeks because of my pretty hectic schedule and the super demanding loads given to us by our dear profs.

01.17.07 - Ps15.1 Lab submission
01.18.07 - Ma17 2nd LT
01.19.07 - Lit14 QUIZ (nakakapagpabagabag!)
01.22.07 - En12 Research Paper 1st draft submission AND Ma17 MIDTERMS (Help me Lord!)
01.24.07 - Ps14.1 2nd LT

I'm really hoping that I won't lose myself after all of these.

Stress, Oh Yeah Baybeh!

PASALUBONG FEST

Akala ko hindi ako makakapunta, ngunit sa awa at gabay ng Diyos, nakapunta rin ako.

What: PASALUBONG FESTIVAL
When: January 6, 2007
Where: KALAYAAN RESIDENCE HALL, UP-DILIMAN, QC.

Sa wakas at nagkitakita kaming muli ng Illumina. Bawat region ng Pilipinas ay maghahandog ng kanilang specialty sa mga bisita ng festival. For example, ang mga kalai residents na galing region 11 ay maghahandog ng DUrian at Pomelo sa sangkatauhan. Kasama sina Lec, Cia, Rae, Hubs, at iba pang mga Illumina, inikot namin ang lahat ng booth ng bawat region at kumain ng specialty nila.

Ang saya-saya. Nagkita muli kami ng mga kaibigan ko. Anj, nandito ako lagi para sa iyo. Tandaan mo 'yan, aking kaibigan! Ang sarap ng dayok. Hahaha!

NApansin ko lang ha, hayok pala talaga kami sa pictures. Hahaha! Proven 'to ng video na ito:

Hala sige! Smile lang!

Pinakilala na rin pala ako ni Dabyang sa kaniyang one and only true love.

Dabyang: How sweet it is to be loved by you...

Oo nga pala, eto ang mga pics na nakuha namin:

Ibang-iba talaga kung kasama mo ang mga high school friends mo. You're so carefree and so happy. Ibang-iba talaga ang Illumina---hinding-hindi malulupig ni mapapalitan ng kahit anumang salapi.

I LOVE ILLUMINA. Sobra pare!

PAPUTOK BEYBEH

What: WORLD PYRO OLYMPICS 2007
When: January 5, 2007, 8-11pm
Where: SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City

Biglaan lang naman ang lahat ng mga pangyayari kagabi. Inimbita ako ni Ciara na pumunta sa pyro olympics. Sumama naman ako, ngunit di ko inakala na sobrang tagal at nakakapagod 'yung biyahe patungong MOA at pabalik dito sa dorm ko.

So ayun, pumunta kami ng Kalai nina Bex at Cia para makipagkita kay Jason. Sabay-sabay kaming tatlong sumakay ng jeep patungong Taft to meet up with Hubs and Jacques. Sa loob ng MRT, tila nahilo ako sa napakaanghit na amoy na nanggagaling sa isang mama na nasa tabi ko. Sobrang anghit ng amoy ng kilikili niya. Nalanghap din yata ni Bex yung tilang nakakamatay na amoy. Buti na lamang at naroon pa sa bag ko ang lollipop na binigay sa akin ni Niña. Pagkarating sa Taft station, tila sinusupsop ko ng walang hanggan ang lollipop na iyon. Akala ko mahihimatay na ako sa sobrang sangsang ng amoy na iyon.

Nabulok kami sa kahihintay ng jeep/taxi/bus sa may Taft avenue patungong MOA. After 48 years, nakasakay na rin kami nina Bex at Hubs ng taxi. Sumunod din sina Cia, Jac, at Jay sa amin. Nakikita na namin ang napakagandang fireworks display ng Pyro Olympics habang nasa taxi pa kami. Dahil sa sobrang excitement, bumaba na kami nina Hubs at Bex sa may daan (na sobrang malayo pa sa MOA) upang mahagilap ang napakagandang fireworks display.

Ang ganda talaga. As in, sobra.

Photobucket - Video and Image HostingPhotobucket - Video and Image HostingPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting


Ngunit, biglang nag-end ang show.

Nagtanong kami sa guard ng McDonalds kung kelan ulit magreresume ang fireworks display. Sabi ng guard na iyon, tapos na raw.

PERTEH. 9PM pa lang!!! TINAHAK PA NAMIN ANG 0128093172847kilometers para lang makahagilap ng 5 mins worth of fireworks display! And to think, hindi pa kami nagdidinner!!!

Namumula na ang mata ni Bex sa gutom. Kaya, kumain nalang kami.

Napagdesisyonan naming kumain na lamang sa Rai Rai Ken. Kumain kami doon ng mga isa at kalahating oras dahil honestly, sobrang bagal ng service doon. Sa sobrang kabaitan ni Jason, nasikmura pa niyang magbigay ng tip na worth 20 pesos.

10:30 na. Paglabas ng Rai Rai KEn, nakarinig ako ng mga paputok na nagpuputukan.

OMG!!! MERON PANG FIREWORKS DISPLAY!!! (perteh na guard ng McDO!)

So sumugod kami sa waiting area ng MOA. At ayun, nakita namin ang tilang 20 minutes worth of beautiful and astounding fireworks display. Eto ang excerpt: 10 minutes... Pasensya na kung mabagal mag-load.



Kung gusto niyo ng mas mabilis na video, eto ang FINALE:



So worthwile pala talaga ang adventure namin. Nakauwi na ako ng bahay ng mga around 1:10am after that bus ride. Sobrang traffic plus, ang layo pa ng Pasay sa QC!

Pero at least, I had fun being with my friends (Bex, Cia, Jay, Hubs, Jak). Ang Saya-Sayaa!!!

After 48 years, nakakita na naman ako ng fireworks, live!

YEAH!!!

NA NAMAN!!!

Carelessness had always been my problem since birth.

Perteh. I was thisclose to getting it.

If only I looked at the given C A R E F U L L Y.

But then, I haven't. And I didn't even N-O-T-I-C-E it when I was reviewing. I had been too smug about it--inexcusable!

And then look what this attitude has got me into: a pit of absolute anxiety and regrets.

Nervousness during exams had been my problem too.

I just couldn't seem to distinguish t^3 from t^2. PERTEH. I'm just sososooo blinded by the fact that I could really do well in the test. I know I can, but this feeling of complacency that I can do it well seems to (and it does, really) be the one that drags me down.

Perteh... I could've done better.

Lesson learned. At dapat matuto na talaga ako ngayon. Di na pwede itong paulit-ulit na pagkakamali. Carelessness at its PEAK! It's going to be unforgivable if I'm going to fall for this crap again.


Sayang!!!

SILENT WATER RUNS DEEP

Kapag ang tubig ay matining,
Ang ilog ay malalim.

You may never know for sure how deep it goes until you drown yourself into it. So don't you dare touch it nor try to swim on it if you don't want yourself to get into trouble--because it is indeed very possible for you to even die because of it.

No matter how calm and peaceful tranquil water may seem to be, it's still water--and no matter how good you swim, you can still drown in it.

So don't play with it if you're not capable enough.

Keep that in mind.

>>>

These people are those you think won’t even break a glass. But guess what? How perfect their smiles may be, these can still be deceiving. You can't even imagine how they manage to be so perfect and yet so destructive.

Silent water runs deep.

>>>

Kung bakit kasi umaasa... asa... asa... asa... asa... asa...

@#$%!$@#%@#$!!

A smile can never always assure you that everything's ok.

CHRISTMAS BREAK NA!

Thank God it's Christmas!

At least, I'll have a break from all of these things... Pero di parin eh. I still have 4 homeworks to do when I arrive in Davao.

Hassle.

Anyway, dapat mag-uupdate na ako ng mga pangyayari.

Naku. Pumunta nga pala kami ni Rae at Ciara sa BelField. May mga Christmas lights kasi sa BelField sa gabi. Eto tingnan niyo:



Ang ganda, diba?

>>>

UP OBLATION RUN.

December 15 'yon. Sabi sa'kin ni Bex, 12 noon magsisimula. Hanggang 11:30 lang ang class ko last friday.

Dinismiss kami ni Ma'am Tulao ng mga around 11:20. KAso, hindi ako nakaalis kaagad. Pinabura pa kasi sa'kin ni ma'am 'yung mga nakasulat sa board. Perteh. Then, traffic pa pagsakay namin ng trike.

So, naisipan naming sumakay ng taxi.

Luckily, nakasakay kami. Mga around 11:45 na 'yon. Traffic. Perteh.

Binaba kami ng taxi sa opposite side ng Palma hall ng UP. As in, sa other side ng Sunken Garden. Mga 11:55 na 'yon.

Halfway papuntang Palma Hall, nagtext sa'kin si Bex:

"Dan, nagsimula na..."

Perteh.

Binilisan namin 'yung paglalakad.

Malapit na kami sa Palma Hall. Biglang nagtext si Bex:

"Tapos na..."

Perteh. Perteh. Perteh. Perteh.

WAA...

Badtrip. Pero may susunod pa namang taon. And I'll make it sure na next year, nasa FRONT ROW TALAGA AKO.

>>>

Christmas party namin sa block last friday.

Doon ko talaga na-realize that I've been so blessed to be in block XX! Ang saya-saya.

Kate, thanks for the graphic novel. ANG GANDA NG SANDMAN! YEAAH!

>>>

Naku. MAy ishe-share pala ako sa inyong lahat.

Ang kinuha ko na PE for this sem is ARNIS; the filipino martial-art. Parang fencing ito with sticks. Instructor namin si Sir Gialogo--6-time national champ ng Arnis.

Ang saya ng arnis. Promise.

Last, last thursday, nagkaroon kami ng prelims for arnis. Lahat ng 8 patterns ipeperform sa harap ni sir.

After ko magdemo, eto ang nangyari:

Sir: "Pasia, Pasia, halika nga..."
Ako: "Sir..?'
Sir: (hawak-hawak pa 'yung index card ko) "Anong province mo?"
Ako: "Davao CITY po sir..." (HINDI NAMAN PROVINCE ANG DAVAO EH! PERTEH!)
Sir: "May varsity team ka na..?"

PErteh. At that moment, parang natulala lang ako. PRAMIS!

Ako: "Sir..?"
Sir: "Sali ka sa varsity team ng Arnis! Sige na!"
Ako: "aaah..."
Sir: "Sige na..."
Ako: "pag-iisipan ko muna sir. kakausapin ko muna parents ko..."

PErteh...

Kaya naman, ginugulo ako ng pangyayaring 'yon. Nakaka-overwhelm lang 'yung feeling na narealize ng isang all-time champ ng arnis na may potential akong maging magaling sa arnis. Goodness... Sobrang saya ng feeling. At the same time, nakakaconfuse.

Hmmm...

Magvavarsity team ba ako o hindi? Gaaaaahh...

Help me Lord.

UUWI NA AKO BUKAS!!! YEAAAAH!

ARAL

Bumili si Kuya Jon ng pagong at ipinangalanan niya itong TORT--in civil law, a wrongful act for which damages can be sought by the injured party.

Century tuna pa ang ipinakakain ni Kuya Jon dito. Ang cute-cute talaga ni Tort--that is, until nakita ko siyang patay na sa kanyang basin.

Naku. Patay na pagong. Nakakaawa.

Salamat sa lahat kaibigan. Dahil sa'yo, naging makulay ang mundo ko sa high school. We shared a lot of things with each other--natatandaan mo ba 'yung mga endless skyflakes at chicharong masarap? 'Yung mga tuksuhan, at mga pa-clingcling mo pa diyan. Kahit 'yung mga problemang walang katapusan. Naku Anj... I may have been so weak without you.

Ganda namin dito. Ang pumalag, pangit.

Thanks for the friendship, for the guidance (kahit minsan nauuwi ang lahat sa samaan ng loob), and of course, for the love!

God bless you Anj! Di bale, kung makapag-ipon man ako ng napakalaking pera (that is kung di ako kakain ng isang buong taon) bibilhan ko ng roundtrip ticket ang lalabs mong si Marl.

Hinding-hindi ko maipagpapalit sa kahit anumang bagay ang divine friendship na inaalay mo sa akin. Kaya ikaw---bigyan mo ako ng mouse sa Enero (dapat black na optical mouse. salamat kaibigan!).

NERD

Hala! I'm officially a nerd.

I'm currently stuck in the dorm because of this seemingly unending physics and math problem sets. I still have to read (and reread) chapters 1 to 5 for my upcoming physics long test on wednesday. I must practice solving problems harder because I'll have a math (calc) long test on thursday.


Ha...

But still, I have to give an update of the events that occurred recently.

Yes. We we're able to attend the Skechers Street Dance Competition. Kasama ko sina Bex, Jacques, Tal, Migs, KBo, CJ, Ate Reys, and the other UPDil people. I happened to sit on the UP area (kasi naman ang layo ng Ateneo plus wala akong kakilala sa mga Atenista na nandoon). I cheered for CADs ( i love ateneo), Xavier High (haaai...), and UP StreetDancers.

Without a doubt, nanalo ang UP Street. Xavier ang nanalo sa high school level. Sayang ang AdMU. Kulang kasi ang performance nila eh--maganda pero kulang.

As usual, we have our Katip night-out every monday. For the past two weeks, we went to Pizza Hut and Bubble Gang Toppings. Ok lang naman ang mga pagkain doon. Ang bilis ng pagseserve ng food ng Pizza Hut (surprising, diba?)

Anyone who wants to view the BEST OF UP STREET DANCE?

Eto, si Bex pa mismo ang magprepresent.



Enjoy.

>>>

Lord, exams na next week.

Help me...

So again, I have to study.

I'm too old for the Mañana habit. And I don't want to be complacent in every task that I do.

Yes, I'm officially a nerd.

Eh dalawang klase lang naman ng tao ang nandito sa mundong ito:

Ang mga NERD at ang mga BOBO.

Ikaw, saan ka nabibilang?

THE HEBREW TALMUD SAYS

I received this text message from Ciara, and I wanted to share this thought to every one of you.

The Hebrew Talmud says:

"Be very careful if you make a woman cry because God counts her tears. Every tear a woman shed is equivalent of man's sacrifices in life. The woman came from a man's rib, not on his feet to be stepped on; not on his head to be superior, but on his side to be equal. Under his arms to be protected and near his heart to be loved..."

Char.

O sige. Balik na ako sa aking pag-aaral.

God bless people!

THIS NEED TO FOCUS

Bumabagyo na naman.

Buti nga hindi gaanong naapektuhan ang Metro Manila. Mapayapa pa naman ang Katipunan sa mga oras na 'to.

Holiday ngayon, kaya wala ring pasok. Kaya't heto ako ngayon, nakakulong sa loob ng Dormitoryana.

I did my best in solving the problem set for physics. Argh. Perteh. Hindi ko masolve-solve! I need to exert MORE EFFORT on this. Apparently, the people who are good in physics are busy with their own homeworks. Ayoko silang gambalain ng mga sarili kong problema. It has dawned on me that I must really solve this ON MY OWN. Haah. Perteh. Physics pa talaga. Help.ME.LORD.

Our Fil prof gave us a homework last tuesday, to be submitted next tuesday. It's a one-page essay with the theme "anong sasabihin ng isang pusa sa isang maulan na araw?" Perteh. What the heck would a cat say to the rainy day? Perteh naman oh... Kung pwede lang sana maging pilosopo, isang salita lamang ang maaring sabihin ng pusa sa isang maulan na araw:

"Meow"

Ano pa ba, diba?

Perteh.

I must finish this homework before midnight. As of now, I must indulge myself with physics problems. thhhhh... Tapos noon, magma-math ako.

Focus dan... focus.

HELP ME LORD.

>>>

Tomorrow (morning), our block is going to visit the people in the Correctional Institute for Women. I just can't wait to meet a murderer! I'll probably get some tips from her... Waaa.

And tomorrow night, we're (with Bex and Tal) going to the Araneta Colesium to watch the Skechers StreetDance Competition. Yes. Sasali ang UP Street Dancers. And of course, sasali rin ang CADs (Company of Ateneo Dancers). I'll support both of them. Hahaha :))

REMINDER LANG:

OBLATION RUN na sa DECEMBER 15!!! SUGOD mga KAPATID!

Waaa...

Thank God I'm free on that day. Hanggang 11:30am lang class ko niyan! Yeah!

UNDER THE WEATHER

Sumakit ang tiyan ko kagabi. As in, SOBRANG SAKIT.

May blinding effect pa nga eh. I thought I was going to pass out when I was taking a shower.

I lost almost 2 liters of water, plus the electrolytes vital for a sound mind and body.

Kaya naman, nilunod ko ang sarili ko ng Gatorade.

Apat na bote na ang nauubos ko. One more to go.

Uminom na ako ng 2 tables of Buscopan plus 3 tablets of Loperamide.

Plus, sumakit pa ang ulo ko. So, uminom ako ng 2 tablets of paracetamol.

Hindi ko natapos ang problem set for physics.

Hindi pa ako desidido sa topic ko for en12.

Hindi pa ako nakakapag-aral ng ma17.

Dapat ko pang gawin ang share ko sa postlab for ps15.1.

Perteh. Perteh. Perteh. Perteh. Perteh!!!

Just give me a cure for dehydration.

SECOND SEM BLUES

Haai naku... Second sem na pala!

Dapat pala inuupdate ko ang mga pangyayari sa buhay ko.

Sisingitin ko muna itong video about our Katip nightout last Nov.20:



So, sige. Let me start by talking about KBo's debut. Nagparty kami sa KFC. Mabuti naman at naging matagumpay ito. Naging masaya si Kbo.

Ayun. 'Yun lang.

Last weekend, Nov 18-19, dumayo kami sa bahay ng mga Camarao sa may Sucat. Blessing kasi ng bahay nina Tal. Inimbita rin niya kaming mag-overnight dito. Anim kaming mga taga THE FORCE ang sama-samang nag-enjoy (ba't kasi wala 'yung 3 pa eh.). Nanood kami ng mga sine sa kanilang family room. Ang sarap pa ng hinanda nilang mga pagkain para sa amin--lalo na 'yung baked mac. Ang babait pa ng pamilya ni Tal sa amin.

TAL BAHAY
BALUARTE NG MGA CAMARAO

Ang saya talaga ng weekend na 'yon. For more pics, just click the following link:


Pumunta si Pare dito sa Maynila. Kagabi, kumain kami sa Via Mare's Oyster Bar sa Greenbelt. Ang sarap-sarap! Sana laging pumupunta si Pare dito para malasap ko ang mga natitikman ni Tito Et dati. Nakuu... Ang sarap!

I miss my Pare!

Our classes started last Nov. 13. I'm happy to know that I now have a Math prof who really does teach Math (last sem kasi, tinuturuan namin ang mga sarili namin! waaa...). I still have the same profs for English and Lit. Ok lang naman ang prof ko sa Physics. Hindi na si Sir Capilos ang prof ko for Fil (I'm really going to miss him... as in!). I got into Arnis for my PE.

English 12. Research Paper Writing. Well, in my case, we're going to write 1 argumentative reasearch paper and 1 reflection paper. Nah... Perteh! Ba't hindi kasi scientific 'yung research?! Perteh. Issues ito!!! May panel defense pa! Limited time!

Lit 14. Intro to Poetry. Yes. I'm hoping that I'm going to be a poet in the end of the sem. Sa simula, hindi ko talaga maintindihan ang mga tula. PERTEH! Subalit, nararamdaman ko naman na makakabawi ako. Nagsimula 'yon kahapon--when we talked about the poem ONE ART by Elizabeth Bishop. As in, I can surely explain it to you. So far in our course, this has been my favorite.

"The art of losing isn't hard to master; so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster..."

Ps 14.1 & Ps 15.1. General Physics for Health Science Lec & Lab. Haaa... What can I say about Physics? Sir Angel kasi noong highschool, tinakot ako. Waaa... But I'm looking forward in this course. In the end of a dark tunnel is a light that brightens one's soul.

Ma 17. Applied Calculus in Biology. OK. Yakang-yaka 'to!

PE 115. Arnis. Astig ito! Instructor namin si Sir Gialogo--6 time national champ sa Arnis! Arnis is a Filipino Martial Art. So far, I'm enjoying this course kahit na may sugat na ang dalawang kamay ko dahil sa friction sa pagitan ng baston at ng aking mga kamay.

Second Sem. Yakang-yaka 'to! God Help ME.

Yesterday, I've conquered step 1.
Honestly, I'm quite doubtful if I'm going to continue to step 2.
I want to take that step.
I want to. Need to.
Just help me God.

Birthday pala ng blockmate ko ngayon! Happy 18th birthday Kate Cembrano! Stay happy! God bless!

NO TIME

I've been dealing with a lot of poems nowadays (thank you lit 14!) that I suddenly remembered this poem I've read on my mom's office table in Davao. This poem just pierces right through my heart, and I admit the fact that I was guilt-ridden after I've read this.

Now, I'm going to share this with you, people, for this poem reflects a part of what I'm experiencing in college. Seryoso na 'to.


NO TIME

I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.

So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My duty toward god was now done
My soul could rest at ease.

All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer.
No time to speak of God to friends,
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.

No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last it was the time to die.

I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God held a book;
It was the book of life.

God looked into his book and said:
"Your name I cannot find.
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time"


Read that. Feel that. Understand that.

For today, I begin a new life.

WALANG INTERNET

Dahil sa mga computers dito sa Ateneo, nakakapaginternet parin ako.

Perteh, hindi pa kasi bumabalik 'yung babae sa dorminet eh. Nagbabakasyon pa raw.

Kelangan ko pa naman ng internet as soon as possible. Lahat ng readings namin for Lit14 ay ipapadala na via e-mail!

Perteh talaga oh!

Pics will be available in my next post.

Sige.sige.

Babay!

I offer this to all of you.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

AKO'Y NASA OPISINA NI PARE

Naku. Nandito na naman ako ngayon sa opisina ni Pare.

Ang hina kasi ng internet sa bahay. Perteh.

Tama, hindi ako naka-attend ng Batch Party last Wednesday. Perteh kasi itong asthma ko.

Pero, bumawi ako noong Friday! Pumunta kami ng Pisay! After that, umattend kami ng birthday party ni Sara!

Happy Birthday ulit Sar!

Nakuu... Ang saya-saya!

Ang sayang makitang muli sina Marian, CJ, Jeijei, Kathleen, Sha, Yek, Jess, Arch, Toneh, AteReys... Hai naku. Ang saya!

Ang saya ring makitang muli ang mga teachers ko sa pisay! Pati na ang ibang mga estudyante na nandoon sa pisay!

Haaai... Ang Saya!

>>>

On our way to Sara's house, na-snatch ang bag ni Dabyang.

Nasa jeep na kami noon. May sumabit na lalaki sa may door. Sninatch niya ang bag ni Dabyang.

Ang bilis ng mga pangyayari... Traumatic.

But then, the very next day, na-retrieve ni Dabyang ang mga ninakaw sa kanya. Thanks to her astig na tatay.

You mess with a policeman's daughter, you also mess with the policeman.

Kasalukuyang nakakulong ang pertehng lalaking 'yon sa presohan.

Kasalukuyan ding nagtetext si Dabyang sa kanyang tunay na minamahal.

>>>

I'm going back to Manila in 5 days.

Time just flies so fast that I couldn't keep track of everything!

>>>

I got my hair done yesterday (with my cousins).

Kaya kayo, PREPARE!

Grades... Grades...

HAAAAAAAAAAH!

DAVAO BEYBEH

Yes! Nandito na nga ako sa Davao.

Hilong-hilo talaga ako during our flight from Manila to Davao. Ang daming turbulence na pinagdaanan ng eroplano. Grabeh. Na-delay din ang flight namin for almost an hour. Sabi nga nila, 90% on time raw ang flights ng Cebu Pacific. Sa tingin ko naman, naexperience namin 'yung 10% of that last Saturday. Gabi na kami nakarating nina Kbo--mga around 6:10pm yata 'yon.

Haai naku. At nakita ko na rin ulit ang pamilya ko. Napakasaya! Grabeh.

The food... Ang kare-kare my goodness... Ang sarap! Baka tumaba na naman ako nito.

>>>

Naku. 'Di na yata ako nasanay sa weather ng Davao.

Alam niyo bang nagkasakit ako kaagad yesterday (hanggang ngayon actually). Severe cough and colds. Pramis. Sayang nga hindi ako makalabas ng bahay dahil dito. Ang dami ko pa namang plans. Kaso, hindi natuloy.

*cough* *cough*

Naku. Tatlong tablets na ang iniinom ko three times a day. Perteh talaga. Niresetahan na naman ako ni Mare.

Sana maging ok na ako bukas.

>>>

Bukas, magkakaroon ng Batch Party sa bahay ni Jason. Sana naman maging successful ito. Sana makapunta ang 95% ng batch namin. I can't wait for the blue berry cheesecake at lasagna na unlimited.

Tataba na naman ako. WEH!

>>>

Nagimprove ang bahay namin. Finally, tapos na rin ang lahat ng construction.

>>>

Pumunta sina Marian, Izy, at Kbo dito sa bahay kahapon unexpectedly. Nanood kami ng My Super Ex-Girlfriend. Long-haired na si Marian.

Ang babaw ng My Super Ex-Girlfriend. SOBRANG BABAW. Hindi sulit panoorin sa sinehan. Mas ok na kung bibili ka ng pirated DVD nito. Makakatulog ka sa pagkababaw nito. Horny pa ang mga characters sa film. Kaya siguro nagustuhan ng konti ni Kbo. Waaa... Just.Kidding.

>>>

The best show on earth is Grey's Anatomy.

At nagmamarathon ako dito sa bahay these days. Ang ganda-ganda talaga! Astig. Eto ang karamay ko sa aking cough and colds. Somehow, this show makes me feel better.

>>>

Kelangan ko ng cuban attire by november 25. Dapat inspired ng 50's. Help me. I'm not good at this stuff.

>>>

I'm worried about my grades. Sana naman pumasa ako. Ayoko rin 'yung feeling na "konti nalang madi-DL na sana." Ayoko rin 'yung feeling na "perteh, paano na ang scholarship ko?"

God, I just want everything to be all right. I did what I had to do.

But still, it's probably not my best. Haai...

Basta, sana... Alam mo na.

Haaaai...

BAGONG LAY-OUT

Actually, colors lang ang nag-iba.

This blog is best viewed in IE. Perteh kasi ba... Hindi nagsusupport ng Firefox ang Cbox! Hindi narerecognize ng Firefox na dapat naka-center 'yung header ko...

Anyway, I'm going to Davao tomorrow...

So, see you soon guys!

Teka, ok lang ba itong bago kong lay-out? or balik ko nalang 'yung dati?

Haaai naku.

TAPOS NA ANG FIRST SEM

Oo... Tapos na nga ang first sem!

Tapos na rin ako sa lahat ng mga papers ko! Yahoo!!! (all I have to do is pass all my papers tomorrow).

Oo nga pala, may utang pa pala ako sa mga readers ko. Nagkaroon kami ng konting kainan ng mga Katips at Kalai pips sa KFC last last Monday with Ma'am Verga. Ang saya kaya... Ayos pala kung kasama si Ma'am Verga. May libreng ice cream.

Tama, birthday pa pala ni Becky last Oct6. May konting surprise nga kami para sa kanya eh.

Medyo kinabahan nga kami kasi baka 'di matuloy. Umuulan kasi ng napakalakas that time. Pero tinahak parin namin 'yon para lang masurprise si Bex. Thank God, everything went well that Thursday night.

bday becky
Belated Happy Birthday Bex!

Anyway, let me go back to what I was saying earlier. Tama, ang saya kung nandiyan sina Ma'am Verga. Here are some pics from that event:

Tapos na ang aming orals sa fil last friday.

THANK YOU GOD FOR GUIDING ME!


I'm just so glad because I was able to answer Sir Capilos's question well. Na-apir narin niya ako sa wakas! (twice pa!)

For the next sem, I believe that it's still "ok" to be in Sir Capilos's class. At least, I know that I'm really learning a lot from him. (despite all the tremendous failures i've encountered in his class)


I also like my Math class... Because this was the only math class that makes me realize that I'm good in math. :)

Biolab is fun. Promise.

My English class is also fun.

My Lit class challenges me to look deep within all those texts that we discuss in class. It challenges me to apply the lessons I've learned in Fil class in this class. From Lit, I've come to learn how to FINALLY read between the lines and look past all the things that are presented in the text. Moreover, my Lit class made me discover the fact na nag-iisip pala talaga ako.

Health Sem made me realize that when your vocation becomes a job--get out of it! (this is the thing that we must tell all those doctors who suddenly shifts and become n*rs*s just to go abr*ad. ok, i'll end here. ang dami kong kaibigan na nurses/nagnu-nursing. i don't want to initiate feuds.)

PE helped me choose what shoes are best for my feet. And it also made me realize that Gatorade is the best thirst quencher when doing an exercise. (KAPAG NAGEEXERCISE LANG.)

My Bio class inspired me more to become a doctor. It made me realize that I CAN DO THIS. Through this class, I met Dr. Jugo, and his poem will remain in me forever.

Intact is ok.

And it's because of college that I've become closer to Him. And that couldn't compensate all the fulfillment I've experienced in my other classes.

Come forth, Second sem...

Pero, sembreak muna, please.

>>>

Yey! I'm going home this Saturday!

Davao, here I come!!!

SUPERTYPHOON

September 29 - 30, 2006... Dumating si Milenyo sa buhay ko.

Perteh talaga. FIRST TIME kong makatikim ng hanep na bagyo sa buhay ko. Nakakita na rin ako ng lumilipad na yero! Pinasukan pa kami ng tubig sa kwarto. BAsag ang lahat ng glass sa ceiling sa floor namin. Tumba lahat ng tanim. WAla kaming kuryente for one and a half days.

PErteh. First time kong makita ang napakadilim na Katipunan.

Nasa internet cafe nga ako ngayon. Sira pa kasi ang server namin sa dorm eh. Kailangan ko rin kasi ng internet. Long quiz namin about Chronicle of a Death Foretold bukas! Haai nalang... Pray for me people!

Magfa-Finals na! YEAH! Study mode...

>>>

Last Sunday, pumunta kami ng mga blockmates ko sa Araneta Colesium para manood ng UAAP Finals. PErteh... Ang ganda at napaka-exciting ng game 1!!! Upper Box B pa kami! First time ko pa namang manood ng UAAP sa Araneta. Thank God nanalo ang AdMU.

Kahapon, nanood na naman kami sa Araneta. General admissions lang kami, kaso itong blockmate ko na si Luis tinuruan akong tumalon from General admissions na bleachers pababa sa Upper Box B na chairs. YeaH!

Pero natalo ang AdMU eh... Hahaii... Sige nalang, bawi nalang sa Thursday!

#17, #18, #5, #6, #7... THe best!

>>>

Nawala ang eyeglasses ko... Nawala yata sa tricycle journey ko from MiniStop to Ken Afford kagabi. Buti nalang sinamahan ako ni KBo kanina sa Gateway at nakabili ako ng bagong eyeglasses...

PEro perteh... I am SO POOR.

Mamamayat na ako sa kakatipid the next days hanggang Oct. 21. Halos mamulubi na ako dahil sa aking eyeglasses.

I never imagined the eyeglasses would be that expensive. ANG LENSES KASI ANG NAGPAMAHAL!

Anyway, dapat mag-improve talaga ang performance ko sa school. Bagong eyeglasses eh. Dapat better performance!

>>>

Magfa-Finals na!

Uuwi na ako!!! yey!

Friday, September 22, 2006

OH C'MON

Ocomon talaga naman oh.

Ang busy talaga namin the past two weeks. Pero at last! Yes! Freedom! Tapos na ang tatlong long tests namin.

But then, I still have my reports. I still have loads of articles to read and understand. Oo nga pala! Babasahin ko pa ang Chronicle of a Death Foretold! I have to finish reading it by the 27tH! I still have my report in Bio and Lit. Aaa... BiolabS pa pala.

So I guess I'm not that unoccupied as I have expected earlier.
Haai buhay...

But then on Sunday, I'm going to watch the Blue Eagles play in the Araneta versus UST. Finals na nila sa UAAP! Yeah! First time kong manood sa Sunday!

Fabilioh! Halikinu na!

Tama, last Sunday kasama ko sina Ciara and Bex magsimba sa Gesu. Perteh. Nagsimba rin ang LAHAT ng Blue Eagles (Kasama na si Coach Norman Black). Halos lumuwa ang mga mata nina Bex at Cia noong nakita nila si Chr*s T*u. Grabeh... Ibang klaseng nilalang talaga 'yon... Hahaai...

Lagi ko ngang nakikita si #17 aka Chr*s T*u sa school. Every after Bio15 class, nakikita ko siyang pumapasok sa room namin (may class siya sa room namin every after my Bio class).

Wala lang...

PErteh talaga.

Nakakapagod pero ang saya!

>>>

I SHOULD'VE been happy LAST week.

But then, hindi eh.

Bakit kaya?

Bato-bato sa langit, ang tamaan, 'wag magalit.

IYAK LANG... SIGE... IYAK PA...

My dad called me earlier. As usual, we had our hi's and hello's. But something stung me during our conversation earlier.

Pipo died last Saturday afternoon. PIPO DIED LAST SATURDAY AFTERNOON.

The wild Pipo... The cute Pipo... The caring Pipo... My Pipo...

Suffocation because of the smell of the paint in our house poisoned his respiratory system. This consequently poisoned his liver and his brain.

Shucks talaga itong anatomy and physiology. Once na maapektuhan na ang isang organ system, dinadamay na nito ang iba pang organ systems sa katawan.

And all that's left are memories... And I will cherish them forever.

Nothing can definately describe what I'm feeling right now. Maybe I''m just too melancholic that I've come to the point of being numb of this loss. I've defied the concepts of Russel and Wittgenstein. Wala na akong pakialam sa mga pinagsasabi ng mga pilosopong 'yan.

Pagbalik ko ng Davao wala na 'yung ambiance na may makulit na asong mag-aabang sa akin.

Six happy years... Well spent, pipopipz.

You've been so important to our family. (wala na akong masasabi pa.)

Your memories will last forever. Thanks for making me happy all these years.

Pipo Pasia
March 15, 2000 - September 9, 2006
Ang aking aso, bow.

I will miss you Pipo...

A POEM

This is a poem written by Dr. Jugo in Madrid in the year 1989. This has become one of my inspirations to really go on inspite of difficulties and to believe in myself.



I'm Not Afraid of the Dark; What I Cannot See Cannot Scare Me.

I Don't Fear Failure, Since It Is Not an Option, and It Will Not Happen.

But All Throughout My Life, Nothing has Scared Me More than a Life of Absolute Mediocrity...

A Life Doomed to a Dull Ordinariness.

I Am Alive, and Therefore I am Here to Excel.

...And in the End of My Days

Let Me Leap into My Grave Proud and Laughing, Ready to Face My Lord

With the Wisdom in my Heart that Never Even Once Had My Life Been Ordinary.

And I Am Prepared to Be Tired Every Day of My Life

In My Quest for Excellence.

-Kai Jugo, Madrid, 1989

MAIKLI LANG ITO

I'm currently making my lab report in Bio due for submission on Monday. I still have to read dozens of chapters in 2 Bio books, answer several exercises in Math, read 2 short stories and a novel, and write an essay. Wa... Ang daming nakapila.

So, this entry will be short. It's just an update of our Monday night food tripping session and my current condition right now (that I'm obviously busy, duh).

Anyway, we had our session at Shakey's last Monday. Buti nalang sumama na si Alec at Jason. Akala namin hindi magkakasya sa budget 'yung inorder namin. Akala rin namin hindi sapat ang pagkaing inorder namin. Pero buti nalang at nagkasya... Never ako naging ganun ka-busog in four months!

Eto nga pala 'yung mga pictures last monday:

Our Shakey's adventure. Si Becky mukang model ng gatas.

At 'eto ang the best. Nagambag kami ng pera pang-ice cream! Unlimited kasi ang ice cream sa shakey's. Masaya at masaraaap!

Next week, flaming wings!

I had the taste of COLLEGE last Tues/Wed. I stayed up late until 2:30 am just to finish my feature article. I think that the next few weeks will tend to be hectic, considering the fact that there are barely two months left for the sem.

Ha... God be with me and never forsake me.

'yon na muna. Next time nalang ang iba.

God bless people.

wow naman Pare! HANEP KA TALAGA! Na-touch ako dun ah...

Ang saya namang malaman na may pamilya akong nagmamahal sa akin.

Salamat Dad at Ma at CJ. I love all of you.

I'm not afraid of challenges because I believe that you'll be there.

Because of you, I learned to be in a good relationship with God.

And because of you, I have this will and strength to go on in my college life.

Salamat Pare at Mare! You're the best.

IKATLONG KWENTO

PARA MALAMAN NIYO ANG UNA AT IKALAWANG KWENTO KO, JUST SCROLL DOWN...

eto na ang ikatlong kwento ko.

We, the Katips peps, decided to have our FOOD TRIPPING SESSION every Monday night.

Our Ultimate goal is to dine in every restaurant here in Katipunan before our first year in college ends.

Yeah! Ang saya!!! Nagsimula kami last monday lang. Kumain kami sa World Chicken.

Masarap. Nakakabusog. Pero medyo may kamahalan.

Sama-sama kami nina Becky, Ciara, Tal, Howie, Howie's friend na soulmate ni Ciara/Bex, Miggy, at siyempre, ako.

Ok 'to kasi after 'to ng midterms namin. Pampagaan ng loob...

food
World Chicken...

Kaso, pampabigat din ng loob kasi medyo may kamahalan nga.

Next Monday, sa Shakey's kami.

Sana makasama na sina Alec at Teetin.

Mga Illumina, kung sinong gustong sumama, punta kayo. Every Monday night ito. 7pm!

See you!

At ito ang end ng ikatlong kwento ko.

IKALAWANG KWENTO

O eto na ang aking ikalawang kwento. Para malaman niyo ang unang kwento, scroll down...

Ang biolab talaga... Sa Pisay kasi, ang mga data namin dinodrawing. Pero ngayon, kelangan na jpeg images ang mga data namin. Kaya naman, good use itong cellphone ko (salamat dad!) at nakakapagtake ako ng mga pictures for my bio lab.

Dissection kami. Yahoo!!! Gusto ko sana pusa na. Kaso, frog pa raw muna kami.

Kami na naman ni Nina (pronounced as NINYA) ang partner sa frog dissection. Pinangalanan naming si Diego ang aming palaka, kahit na babae ito, in honor of Nina's boylet. In depth study kami ng frog eh... Sobrang detailed ang pagmememorize namin ng bawat muscle ng palaka. Good thing dinaanan ko na 'to noong third year kami sa Pisay. Somehow, nakatulong ito ng malaki!

Eto nga pala ang pinagdaanan ni Diego sa aming mga kamay:

frog dissectiong
Ang Pakikipagsapalaran ni Diego, ang Babaeng Palaka

Hindi maskulado ang palaka namin... Nakakainis. Hindi ko tuloy matukoy ng maayos ang muscles ng frog kung nagrereview.

Basta, don't mix the blood of the frog with formalin. Perteh ang baho ng labas niyan. Ang palaka kasi nina Pancho at TJ (my blockmates sa Bio/Biolab) eh may lacerated vein. So, umapaw ang dugo at humalo sa formalin solution. Kaya naman, after one week, wasak at durog ang mga internal organs ng palaka nila. At siyempre, sobrang baho nito. SOBRAA... the stench... AAAA!!! it HAUNTS ME.

Buti nalang, medyo may pagka-magis itong prof namin sa BioLab. Pinahawak din niya kami ng porcine heart at lungs at esophagus. Ay naku Perteh! Ngayon lang ako nakakita at nakahawak ng totoong heart at lungs at esophagus... Ibang-iba pala talaga ang lungs ng frog sa pig. 'Yung sa pig daw kasi parang sa tao na rin. Malaman kasi ang lungs ng pig, at sobrang laki pa nito! Ang sarap hawakan kasi ang lambot! ang taba!!!

Ang laki-laki rin ng porcine heart. Parang may hypertrophy yata 'yung baboy na 'yon eh. Sobra sigurong cholesterol kaya strenuous ang pagpapump ng heart niya, thus producing enlarged cardiac muscles.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
Ang puso, esophagus, at baga ng baboy na mataba.

Wow naman... Naeenjoy ko talaga ang BioLab. Kaso, nakakapagod din ito. Biruin mo, 4 hours 'yan every thursday? Pero worth-it naman eh.

Baka nga sa Sept.13 eh cadaver na talaga ng tao ang titingnan namin. Sana matuloy!!! parang kinakabahan/natatakot/naeexcited ako eh. Hindi ko matukoy. Wala akong mahanap na salita that completely describes that feeling. Basta, perteh!

And speaking of BioLab, I still have a report to do. Pero, tatapusin ko muna 'to.

At 'eto ang end ng ikalawang kwento ko.

UNANG KWENTO

Salamat!!! I can finally post another entry here in my blog.

ANG DAMI KAYANG NANGYARI AFTER ALL THESE WEEKS.

Sige, iisa-isahin ko ang mga ito.

Una sa lahat, bakit nga ba ang tagal kong nakapagupdate kahit na 24/7 'tong internet connection ko? Ang sagot diyan mga kaibigan ay masyado akong naging abala sa academics ko. Midterm/Long test week kasi 'yung nagdaang dalawang weeks, at dahil doon, hindi na muna ako nakapag-update.

Natanggap ko na ang mga advisory grades ko. Midsem grades, ika nga. Perteh... Nakukulangan ako... Nakakainis pa 'yung iba kong prof... Kulang ang batayan nila sa advisory grades. Sabi nga nina Tito Et at Kuya Jon, sinasadya raw ng mga prof na babaan ang mga advisory grades para hindi maging complacent ang mga students sa subject nila... Kaya naman mabababa 'yung mga nakuha kong grado... Huhuhuhu... =(

Dagdag pa ni Kuya Jon na tataas daw talaga ang mga grado pagdating ng final grades. Ang D mo pwede pang maging B+...

And with that in mind, I know I will achieve what my heart desires. I know I can, and I know that I will... Kaya ko 'to!!!

Oo nga pala... Hindi ako bumagsak sa Fil... pasado lang... PERO KULANG PARIN!!!

Anyway, tama na muna 'yon... Let me talk about other things.

One wednesday afternoon, pumunta kami ni Nina (pronounced as NINYA) ( ang aking friend/blockmate/laging kasama/same sched partner ) sa Moro Lorenzo Complex para hanapin si Laur (my blockmate na ka-group namin ni Nina ) na kabilang sa badminton varsity at para makahiram na rin ng mga photocopied papers sa kanya for our BioLAb. Moro Lorenzo Complex is a gymnasium sa Ateneo kung saan nagpapraktis ang Blue Eagles ng Ateneo. Malapit din 'tong gym na ito sa High School. Pagpasok namin ni Nina, nagpapraktis ang highschool basketball team. Perteh... highschool pa, kaya umalis nalang kami.

Magpapaphotocopy sana kami, kaso sirado na ang library sa highschool. Napagdesisyunan namin na mag-aral nalang sa benches ng high school para sa aming long test for the next day. As we were studying, parang may narinig akong familiar na boses sa likod ko. Pero, 'di ako lumingon kasi nga, nag-aaral ako. Tinatawag na pala ako ni Nina (dahil siya'y nasa harapan ko as in face to face kami), pero 'di ko siya pinansin. Nag-aaral nga ako eh.

Patuloy parin ang pag-uusap ng dalawang tao sa likod ko. Mga piling salita lang naman ang natatandaan ko.
Someone: "pare..."
Familiar Voice: "...oo nga eh.."
Somerone: "si neri..." "kim.."
Familiar voice: "...oo nga pare eh.."

Napagisip-isip ko na maka-showbiz yata ang pinag-uusapan ng mga taong nasa likod ko. Pero hindi ulit ako lumingon kasi nag-aaral ako.

After some time, kumuha ako ng ballpen sa bag ko. Habang kinukuha ko ito, nakita ko ang likod ng taong nasa likod ko (ang labo) using my peripheral vision. Gets?

Aba... Aba... Perteh talaga oh! Si Mikee pala. 'Yung Mikee ng Pbb! Naalala ko tuloy 'yung pinsan kong si Trisha. Patay na patay 'yon ke Mikee eh.

Sinabihan ko si Nina na nasa likod ko pala si Mikee nang pabulong. Sabi niya, kanina pa raw niyang gustong sabihin sa akin, kaso 'di ko raw siya naririnig.

Ay oi, basta. Ang pogi pala ni Mikee up-close. Matangkad. Broad shoulders. waaa...

Kaya kayo, kung gusto niyong makita si Mikee, tumambay kayo sa high school benches around 6pm at siguradong uupo siya sa likod niyo. Naghihintay kasi 'yon ng sundo eh.

Anyway, so ayun. Bumalik kami ng Moro Lorenzo Complex ni Nina. Pagpasok namin doon, aba! Nagpapraktis na ang Blue Eagles! Perteh. Ang galing ni Doug Kramer. PEro the best parin si Chris Tiu. Waaa... LAgi kong nakakasalubong si Chris Tiu sa harap ng Schmitt Hall. Waaa... ang galing talaga niyaaaa...

So ayon... Unang kwento palang 'yon.

FRIDAYS MUST BE HAPPY

Nanood kami ng Sukob kanina sa Glorietta 4. Kasama ko ang blockmates ko (go XX! the best damn freakin' block evahh!). Super enjoy. We had lots of fun.

Ang saya-saya ko talaga kanina...

Pero bakit ganon? Ngayon, I feel so sad and lonely.

I need to go to Intramuros within this weekend for my En 11 feature article. Eh kaso nagcla-clash ang mga schedules namin ng mga ka-group ko sa R08. Tinanong ko ang mga ibang mga taga-illumina kung pwede nila akong samahan.

Pero hindi eh, wala. Walang available bukas.

So I guess I just have to go there all by myself... Alone... :(

sana lang nga noh, maiwasan ko na 'yung hobby ko na laging umaasa... napakaoptimistic ko, grabe... kaya, ang dami kong ineexpect... and i tend to end up na laging umaasa sa wala. i feel like crying right now.

I miss Marian... I miss Kamille... my best buddies...

I miss Ma, Dad, and CJ... Kahit saan pwede nila akong samahan... haaai...

If I could just take them here, I would... But it seems too impossible.

Hell Week coming up. My first taste of Hell Week in the Ateneo--siguradong next week na 'yon.

Ang daming assignments / papers / projects...

HETO AKO...

Heto akoooo, basang-basa sa ulaaan. Walang masiiisilungaaan... Walang malalapitaaaan...
-Nangyari 'yan last Sunday, noong papunta ako ng UP para magsimba. Perteh. Wala pa akong payong that time... Imagine niyo nalang kung anong nangyari sa akin.

>>>

Umuulan na naman. Pupunta SANA ako sa Freshmen Day ng Ateneo. 1-5pm sana. Eh kaso, umuulan... Tapos 'di naman talaga required... Pero sayang... Haay nakU... Tinatamad din naman ako eh. Waa...

Kagabi nakausap ko sina Mare at Pare via Y!M. NAg PC to PC calls kami. Char, may webcam pa. Si Mare, sinosolo ang webcam. waa... Na-miss ko na talaga sila. Si CJ sobrang kinukulit ako na bilhan siya ng blue na train. Ok... I'll buy that in time for her birthday.

Ako lang isa ngayon sa dorm. Buti pa si Ate Mian (my room mate) bumalik sa Davao for 3 and a half days. Dapat kasi ako rin eh! waaa... As if ano? Wala naman talaga kaming wawarts para diyan.

I'm stuck here in Dormitoryana. Buti nalang nagpa-member na ako sa Video City (kaso, ang LAYO!!) at nakahiram na ng dalawang CDs.

I will watch The Tale of Two Sisters at The Butterfly Effect(ang ganda nito super!) with Becky and Ciara on Sunday (bukas!). Tambay mode na naman ako sa #76 E. Abada St. on SundaY! (bukas!)

Pupunta ako sa Cervini ng around 5:30pm. Alec promised me the Grey's Anatomy CDs. Nagpa-burn kasi ako sa kanya ng dalawang seasons ng Grey's. I just love that show. Sa Cervini kasi, kahit anong shows (as in full seasons) pwedeng magpa-burn, basta may kakilala ka sa dorm na may pc with burner. I'm lucky to have Alec/Miggy/Howie na nasa dorm. Yeah!

Anyway, I still have to kill 3 more hours bago ako pumunta ng Cervini.

Kaya ngayon, magbabasa nalang ako ng Artemis Fowl. 'Yung pinakaunang book na Artemis Fowl. Pinahiram sa akin ni Ate Hanica... Nasimulan ko na nga 'yung libro. Amazing.

I finished reading Stainless Longganisa by Bob Ong. Ang galing niyang mag-critic ng mga bagay-bagay dito sa country natin. Sana maging ganun ka-OK ang thinking skills ko... (waaa... pinoy!)

I also have to prepare for my Ma 11 LT on Tuesday. God, help me.

That's all for now people. Enjoy the rest of the day!

SA LUNES PA?

Haay nakuu talaga noh? Excited pa naman akong makita/mahawakan/magamit 'yung bago kong cellphone. Perteh... Akala ko ngayon ko makukuha... Sa Lunes pa pala!

Perteh talaga oh... Gusto siguro talaga ni Lord na pag-aralan ko muna ng mabuti ang Ma 11 LT ko. Gusto rin niya akong bumawi sa Filipino.

Haaay nakuu Filipino...

Sa totoo lang, gusto ko naman talaga ang Filipino subject. As iN! Since birth I liked it already. Lalo na noong high school! Hanggang ngayon, actually. Pero bakit ganun? Kung kelan ako handang-handa mag-take ng quiz about a certain lesson sa Fil 11, iba 'yung ipinapaquiz niya... Perteh... Dapat akong bumawi. DAPAT!

TATANDAAN KO NA!

PErteh... Pisti... After a loong weekend, parang na-dishearten parin ako sa Pinoy quiz.

Lord, Tabangi ko... Tabang Lord...
