Tiresome Wednesday

jesus. what a day.

usually, in UP, our wednesdays are considered rest days; mondays and tuesdays can really wear you down easily. i actually allotted this wednesday for some laid-back activity at school; a thesis-writing seminar was to be held at ten and i decided id attend. i'd be able to go home after that then and have some nap. well unfortunately it didn't go too laid-back because:

the thesis-writing seminar overexercised my brain muscles too early (the speaker started talking about fourier waves and business cycle crystals, i was stomped) so i was tired by the end of it. mentally jotting down notes and everything can really make you go "i need coffee...". well at the end of it only one fact remained clearest in my head: thesis-writing drains the shit out of you.

after that me, tin, and dale ate out at flaming wings. dale gave us a very intensive crash course on stocks and stocks management. it's a pretty risky business you know, and even though i am as interested as anybody else to engage in stocks, i dunno if i have enough will power to invest my money in some abstract financial instrument. i dont have very good decision-making skills yet, so i still have to watch tin do it before i do it myself. besides, the stock market is too complicated for me. hopefully my money and banking class will teach me enough knowledge so that when i graduate, i would eventually be a player in the stock market.

anyways, at the end of dale's long tutorial, i was not so lucid in the head so i failed to appreciate things properly afterwards. but the chicken in flaming wings were great. the sauces are even greater.

to add to the stress, rain started pouring before we could find a cab going back to UP. umbrella's up, we hailed a cab, while still immersed in some stocks-induced bitter-sweet euphoria (?) of some sort. it was mind-boggling i tell you.

we arrived at SE in time for our next mental endeavor - a finance and marketing seminar for orgs and councils. man. we were bangag by the time the second speaker started talking. we had to leave early otherwise i would not have the capacity to do tomorrow's lessons (good thing i dont have PI tom.).

*not so tired-looking huh?

hay hay, it was very very tiring. when you are mentally tired, everything else in you is tired too. your body, your emotions, your spirit... tired. after the very long thinking process that i went to the whole day, i figured i need to get the stress out of my system so i met up with pie and we went to trinoma to unwind.

whoa...

gahd it's so beautiful there, with the off-creme theme and the magnificent architecture of the mall... man, it is superior. and oh, starbucks! man. you gotta love it. with the mist sprayers and the greenings and all. hmmm i like. pie and i promised that one day we will visit trinoma as it opens in the morning, so we could savor the very nice ambience in starbucks. you should really experience it.

tin ----> you're gonna love it there!

anyways, after wondering around, pie and i ate burgers and onion rings at brother burger. pie says it tastes almost like wham burgers, but i haven't tried wham burgers yet so i dont really know. after eating, we went to this japanese everything-at-88-pesos store where i bought a mop (ive been looking for a cheap one since last week but all i found was a 120 pesos soft-toothed broom at gateway.). anyways, it was kind of awkward bringing the mop while i commuted, but the heck, i still brought home a very cheap article so its ok.


hmmm.. thata! im really tired now so im going to sleep early if i can. til tomorrow!

Missing Pep

The UP Pep Squad Drummers Faction



*sob sob...*

i miss pep. it's been a year since i last played for pep, and my pep days seem like eons ago. i want to go back but if i do, i will be an applicant again. tsk. i just miss it. miss em. the people, they were all so good to me (except for my headdrummer who always seemed so distant..)

aww i miss krystel... at one point we were the last remaining snare applicants in the drummers' faction. i miss the bassists, diana, rachel, carlo, and the three eggnoks: meemer, miggy, and bogi. i gotta give it to my snare teachers also: jeho, jingo, arlo and ajin. and bill and nana, my senior mentors, uff, miss em.

hay. the days when i always had wounds on my fingers because of drum power-hitting. i remember the nights when i had to stay up so we could perfect the beats and some choreos. man, even though i always came home very late, it was all worth it.

Proper Punctuation

it's so gloomy today. no what's the right word? hmmmm... morose! yes morose. ...


i heard my classmate saying the summer season will end this week because the summer solstice is coming. good thing im almost ready for the rainy season..

wait.. just now this idea crossed my mind again: we are having stronger and more damaging typhoons from now on. last year, a certain typhoon hit the philippines causing a lot of irrepairable damage, man, and everything was jammed and dripping. i remember me hanging on for my own and the window panes' dear lives as the torrents of typhoon water lashed on my condominium unit. its scary.

if i just had the power to reduce carbon dioxide levels to functional normalcy. ...

i woke up today feeling heavy in the head. i thought i overslept, but eventually i put the blame on my staying up late last night. i was researching the proper uses of punctuations in preparation for my job in HARAYA (everyone has been congratulating me since yesteryesterday so i thought id just have to reciprocate. ...)

errr, can i just say: it's kind of pathetic, congratulating me for fetching a position in HARAYA's edboard... BUT IM NOT REPRIMANDING anyone, it's just that i dont think it's such a big deal, being in HARAYA, because after all, we were appointed - we didn't win elections of sorts or whatever.

but i accept the congratulations thank you. it's just that, i dont think i deserve such complements for anything. besides, i haven't done anything yet. ... congratulate me when the yearbook is published and it turned out good. yep?

talking about my HARAYA job, i think i am crowding my schedule with too much extracurricular activity. as of current, i am marketing for the council's brands sale on the first week of july and i am also doing managing errands for sidhi, the school's paper. when Haraya starts to function, i will basically juggle my 18 units of acads with marketing, managing, and editing duties in my extracurriculum. hay. this is proactivity at its core.

that's why i can't wait to have my ETS. i hope mum permits me to have it because i badly need to recode my eccrines.

*steep - nina*

uf, it's so so gloomy now. i can see the gray shadows of huge nimbus clouds in the horizon. most of the time, i love rain. i think it is revitalizing, because water is the source of life for many things. but something is wrong with this darkness. its eerie and there is too much pasty gray in the sky palette.

hwughh.. nakakaburat.

Making Chickenwich

it's 11:39 in my clock and im making chicken sandwiches... inspired by my friend pia's hamwich, i made sandwiches of my own! welcome to the life of the bored. :p

maybe i should put cheese next time...

-chickenwich-

Frost Bus

i think my nose is frostbitten... i commuted going here and the bus i rode has an airconditioning system that has enough refrigerants to solidify water.

lesson learned: always bring an article that can warm you up when travelling. you never know the buses these days. you'll simply board a bus one day, and discover that the bus has a cryogenic unit installed in its engine.

-shiverrrr-

Ill Tempers

disclaimer: i may be brooding over the negative behaviors of certain people at this moment, but it doesn't mean im a brooder all over. im still determined to be a good person. it's just that i feel the need to express my feelings toward negative behavior so that they could be corrected.

my atmosphere is teeming with ill-tempered people nowadays. it seems to me that many people are incapable of controlling their emotions, making them very unpredictable during normal circumstances. like yesterday for example. i was marketing for a brand sale proposal at nike and the telephone operator (the first layer call point, not the marketing department) bitched out on me, undermining the proposal which i had faxed earlier without even reading it. i knew it was disrespectful to answer back, and i am in fear of rank-pushing, so there was i, dumbfounded, listening to a shrieky female voice that was questioning me about the short time interval before then and the actual brand sale.

then this morning, i was shamed in front of a teacher in class for a joke that was just intended for pun and nothing else. im amazed at how certain people fail to recognize a joke when they hear one. sharp words were thrown at me despite the fact that i threw a joke and nothing beyond that. well this failure says a lot about a person. i have been hurt by this person before, and the last time the person did that, the person told me that it was merely the person's nature to bitch out. part of her nature, the person reiterates. if that is still so, then it is not wrong for me to conclude that the person generally has a very bad personality, which explains a lot of things about this person. things that i can only recount on my very closest of friends...

and finally, there is a part of the econ populace that still hasn't gotten over the feuds that were created during last sem's elections. even though everything have been glossed over by now, i still feel the cold treatment from certain people whose names i dont need to mention. i said once, im trying to be nice to everybody, but they are the ones who keep sour-graping over simple things. as a person determined to be a better person, i can't tarry longer to wait for them to get over their problems. if they dont like me, i dont like them either. it may be discriminating, but it makes me a better person because at least im not being a hypocrite.

if you are reading this entry, i hope you understand that i am a person too, equipped with an emotional backbone, and complete with emotional complexes to perceive such harsh treatment. i believe i have the right to rant.

...

on the lighter side of things...

buti na lang masaya ang council life ko. marketing is very worthwhile doing. it gives me a lot of insight about the corporate world.

masaya din ang acad life ko. so far, naiintindihan ko pa ang mga lessons ko kahit na wala pa ang aking mga libro. i hope i get high grades this sem, but i wont hope much because disappointment is very very bitter.

i dont normally eat spicy food, but this morning, when i woke up, my brain told me, "i will eat zinger tonight..." and i did. it's not spicy pala. it's just like the normal chicken fillet but it's bigger it has more dressing, and the patty is crispier. then i chugged it down with C2 apple, yey delicious.

my senior friends last year went to econ this afternoon and we had a good chitchat. most of them are still waiting for their job offers, while some are continuing their study by taking a master's degree or going to law school. im altogether happy for them because they seem to be taking roads that lead to greener pastures. part of me though is envious, because i still have to hurdle a thesis before i could embark on a better life, but well... it's what we have to do to reach our dreams right?

so smooth sailing ahead.

i hope i could get a girlfriend soon.. but im just saying. nothing serious about it.

Entree Premiere

bon soir tout le monde.

c'est onze heure et deux du nuit mais je ne suis pas dormant. j'ai cette tasse de klassno, je le bois, avec la conscience que je dormirai plus facilement avec lui.

hmmmm. il y a beaucoup de choses qui font dans ma vie maintenant. je le remercis, le Dieu, pour me donne cette vie interessante. le marketing, le papier de l'ecole, le conseil... il est un peu probable que j'eusse un resume tres bon. merci merci.

j'ai finit avec mes devoirs et on a un colle demain. j'espere qu'il sois facile. maintenant, il n'y a pas de quelque chose pour faire. j'ecoute les chansons modernes, et mon plus preferee maintenant est maroon 5, c'est tres bon.

hay hay. la silence me quiets. je l'aime.

esperez que demain est bon.

-bonne nuit!-

Marketing Fanatic

wow. so many things accomplished today. im beggining to get used to this proactive lifestyle...

first thing in the morning, i was drinking really good klassno hot chocolate in a cup, which got my french tongue going... i haven't finished this assignment for french yesternight, so i woke up early today to finish it. maybe i should always start my day with the french made beverage, i understood the very complex topic of les pronoms relatifs quite easily today... well...

then i was in international economics recounting stories about the doha round, the notorious taxing systems of scandinavian countries, and adam smith's "individual vs. the society" tenet... my seatmates loved it. im humbled at this fact, because hard it is to admit, i actually appreciate ma'am tuvera's teaching because i can still remember the things i read in the many readings that she lent out. i want to thank her (secretly, because i was shaming her before when i was in her class...) but she's not available right now. so i'll just send my gratitude to the cosmos, hoping that some way or another, mam tuvera will feel my thanks.

after that, we ate at the pakain.... some scrumptious lumpia and buhaghag rice... oh well, since it's free, you can't really expect the rice to be a la riz francais right? but the lumpia is good.

i was off to the council room by one. pia was with me because her class was cancelled. together, we marketed painfully, as the 6 year old fax machine stood on our way. maaan... it has a whole complicated world of its own, complete with its own language and culture.. damn, can we get a new one please??

sayang, i was about to name it BIBI pa naman.. but i only christen the name BIBI to some things i love, like my laptop... me loving the council fax machine will take some time...

so at the moment, i will call it... SHERLY. a name i met today, a name which made me laugh.

anyways back to the council room, we were able to fax the proposals to three companies yehey!! tomorrow i will go to school and follow them up, and do the things marketing people do... marketing is so fun! (except for the faxing part of course; it makes you want to throw the fax machine out the window...)

after marketing afternoon, my dear boss tin arrived from math. we were all a bit stressed, because there were a lot of fuss coming from all corners of our world, so my boss conjured a very very bright idea.. she treated us to a...

TEA PARTYY! YE HEY!!


it's relaxing, partially from the envigorating effect of the beverage we drank, but also due to the thought that even though things get stressful all around, there still happens some small hours, small hours where we can just sit down and relax, talk about stuff, think about light things... i like...

*visit my multiply for more photos...

hihi.. well technically its not a TEA party, because we drank brewed coffee, but it looked like that nevertheless... hahaha! i luuurv brewed coffee. and the chocolate crinkles went well with it... THANKS TIN!! oooh i love my boss...

and then we went our separate ways. i went to the lib and then to SC to photocopy some acad materials. hay, SC personnel always disquiet the order of my system with their crooked inefficient strategies in tackling daily business.. but oh well, who am i to criticize them? they may be busier than i am...

then i went home, but first went to the bayad center to pay my bills... "grown-up stuff," says my boss... i like the term. it makes me feel a bit sensible.

grown-up stuff..

hmmm... i like!

til tomorrow!

-stuffing-

Charlie Chan

i love charlie chan chicken pasta.



i've been craving for it for days now. i finally had the time to buy a serving...

eventhough i hate peanuts, i loved the pasta's peanuty flavor. this one really made good use of the nuts; the sweetness complements perfectly with the spicy nutty flavor. oh and i love the herbs and shiitake mushroom strips...

-yum-

Season Transits

eeerrfff.. i was looking for the two books i need for my two econ electives but i cant find both of them. the books are nowhere to be found in any of the four bookstores in cubao... geez. even national bookstore doesn't have it...

im bothered. so many hours of just staring at the monitors screen... i should've used them reading my lessons instead. and gahd, it was hot. as of the moment, i commend my sweat glands for not giving up on me.

...

it's getting gloomier and gloomier by the day now. the summer heat is still there (and im annoyed by how penetrating it could get) but the ominous nimbus clouds have started appearing on the horizon. at 12:30 this noon, we had the first rain of the season. it was cats and dogs...

global warming is scary. ive watched the movie, an inconvenient truth, and it says, the more greenhouse gases we produce, the hotter the earth gets, the more violent storms strike the coastal areas.. in some freakish part of my brain, i have a premonition that a typhoon is fast approaching.

well.. welcome back to school everyone!

-books! i need my books...-

Helplessly Bored

wow. total bum weekend.

i am currently hyped by the fact that it's the first week of classes and im formally enrolled. im actually almost ready to start a brand-new semester, except for the many facts that is currently bugging me..

i've been staring at this monitor for three hours straight now, im actually talking to BIBI already. well at the third hour, i stopped mid-sentence, because five bummy things creepily tiptoed across my mind:

one: i cant buy my books because the cheap bookstore here in katipunan is closed during saturdays.

two: because of number one, i cant study my lessons yet. so im behind the first chapters of international econ and money and banking... hay hay.

three: i cant read my readings because the econ lib is only open half of the day; i failed to come on time to fetch my materials..

four: the bayad centers are closing on the afternoon, and like the previous, i failed to pay my bills. i will have to pend my payables until monday (and today is the due date for my electricity... ak crap.)

five: i cant do any org stuff because: i already gave my solicitation letters to my mum, and she will take care of the rest from there (so no council activity as of the moment). im not doing any SIDHI-related things too, because my boss, frances, seems to be doing all the job by herself. she'll call when she needs help anyways.

humm humm.. tap tap tap.

and then i was back to my eye-straining dragged-down process of staring at the laptop monitor..

i should've bought a copy of freakonomics. pie said there were vendors at the AS walk selling the book at 30% less the original price. i had a kick-back of about a thousand from my recent tuition payment, and i havent spent it all yet, so i guess id ought to buy a copy myself. but then again, the AS walk vendors are not there in UP during weekends, so.. until monday again, i guess.

bumminnnnggg..

Passage Rite

well...

what can i say. i had the hottest, most uncomfortable day in UP. when students from other universities say they had the most tiresome day of their lives when they went to enrollment, im thinking in my head... "yeah right.."

i could not properly describe the experience we UP students undergo during registration periods because the mere effort of trying to remember the reg process makes us nauseatic. the stifling heat, the very long lines that doesn't seem to end, the noise of city life... ugh, i should just say, nothing can daunt you anymore once you have experienced the UP registration process.

now, im just proud and happy that im enrolled. at three o'clock this afternoon, i finally bid farewell to long lines and manual enlistments because next semester, i would be graduating, hopefully, and i will be prioritized over the other students... madali na ang buhay.

merci beaucoup...

how my day went:
french was so fun because finally we were all speaking in french, and my teacher is very very angelic. saintly. divine... hehe. no she's just so kind and she has a very pleasant personality and, hey guess what, she can TEACH!! great right??

i hope i could get a high grade in this one.

then i was late for international econ because i sort of lost my file case in the college of arts and letters and had to look for it pa. i found it eventually, at the guard station whose manning officer was teasing me for my ill-looking id pictures... apparently he took the time to rummage through my belongings so he'd be sure they're mine.. the only consolation was he said that i looked better in person. hehe.. oh well..

back to international econ, we talked about trade ratios and why the smaller countries in the wolrd have higher trade ratios than the bigger ones (they are more dependent on trade.... ok im doing a review here, bear with me). then we talked about this article entitled "international dimensions.." where i learned that the philippines still actually have very high labor-intensive activity (we mistook capital exports as capital-intensive, when they are actually more labor-intensive.. yeah i know it's so greek, ok i'll stop now...)

hay hay hay.. im really tired. so many things in my mind. maybe i should sleep now...

-tsuuig-

Home Stretch

to the heavens, the cosmos, the Fates, the Higher Being, whatever you are, whoever you are...

I THANK YOU...

because finally, im done with the enlistment process!!! i dont have to sleep those sleepless nights fearing i wont get the chance to enroll on time.. today is so lucky, i was admitted in a physics class, the teacher rocks, and i have my batchmates from econ as my classmates.. how cool is that? i mean, in UP it doesn't really happen all the time... soo...

anyways, i left my form5 at econ. will fetch it tomorrow, then im off to the Palma Hall where we pay for our tuition... yeeeeey!!

my official schedule for this sem:


there you go. i have free TF afternoons, so i allot them to my extracurricular activities. i hate econ121 because i think im the only senior in the room... oldie!

i have a new discovery... jollibee's taco beef fries and nachos is one heck of a snack. it has beef on salsa, melted cheese, fries, and nachos... im amazed at how good it tastes, considering the fact that it's just an amalgam of rather pallid tasting chips and potato strips... anyways, just so you know... you should try it. it's really delicious.

im loving my new vista inspirat 2 visual style.. my laptop's OS is Windows XP Media Center Edition Service Pack 2, but well there are wonders from the internet (eg, crystalxp.net ----> thank you!) that gives you the power to change the visual style of your laptops dramatically. mine now looks like the latest released OS of windows, Windows Vista. i love the cascading effects, the transparency, and shadow dropdowns.. hmmm, i like.

oh now, econ141 tomorrow! must study... see yah!

Mannequin Observatory

aurora boulevard is one of the most dangerous alleyways in the metro, i swear. the speeding jeepneys shoot like bullets through the road so fast, it comes to a point where you have to maintain this awkward position (two hands on the jeepney bars, and sitting on the edge of your seat..) while your hair and the wind are frenzying on their own... the problem is that the drivers are driving recklessly but they have absolutely no idea about it, since they have been doing the driving for a very long time already, and the very loud stereo music is blasting their eardrums so they couldn't care more about other things...

i was at the mall yesterday for a change merchandise (my black string bag, i wanted the blue one...) and i was walking through the corridors (lost because i cant find my way through the crowd that was still in pre-school-panic-buying-mode) looking at the many designs of mannequins that don the freshly stone-washed clothes of clothing merchandisers... they came in all shapes and shades, and i asked myself, is there a criteria that a company sets before it purchases a mannequin? like for example, the mannequins in jag have prominent butts, maybe to emphasize their hip-hoppy designs that are most of the time low-rise.. the mannequins in sporting houses are the most buffed, with the widest shoulders, and most of the time, the darkest shade (they are usually black mannequins.. i dunno why.) the mannequins in adidas are not really that buffed though; they are chiseled to be slender, with long athletic musculature, and flat pecs, maybe trying to immitate the real athlete's body.

the mannequins of this formal dressing store on the other hand, do not have heads! instead of a neck, the collar bone extends upward to form a long triangular stick ( i was thinking there was supposed to be a head hanging from that protrusion). i was thinking about possible heads that could complete the attires and the mannequins themselves, and my thinking led me to the bizarrely exhuberant mannequins of SM. they are usually girls with an obvious look of cheer in their faces. they have wide smiles which reveal all their front teeth, and their hair color is most of the time hot pink or bubble gum blue.. SM being serious in wanting to sensationalize the concept of "eye-candy."

while i was walking through the mall corridors, i was thinking: even if they were mannequins, some of them actually have personalities. the mannequins of penshoppe look like they are school people prepping up for a first-day funk. the mannequins of mango look so sophisticated, they would have been in the ranks of wendy puyat if ever they were real.

but the most posh-looking mannequins of them all, took my breath away. i was about to try my luck of finding the bag-store i was looking for when i stumbled upon a white-laden facade of glasses, illuminated by fourteen stumps that had spotlights embedded in them. i looked further, and let my eyes hover over the fourteen olive-skinned mannequins which stood sinister in front of the white background, all in the best looking articles of clothing i have ever seen. i looked up and there, emblazoned over the off-white wallpaper finish were the initials:

F&H...

and then i was suddenly thinking about how good the clothes in folded and hung are, and how expensive they are, but how nice the quality, and that all of it was made by a filipino, the founder was actually a filipino etc. etc...

so, in the end, i came to the conclusion that mannequins sometimes speaks more about the company than the salespeople do..

marithe + francois girbaud, on the other side of things, doesn't have mannequins manning their front windows.

hehe. blawbber...

Early Blahing

not-worth-reading entry coming up... dont waste your time...

classes haven't even started and i already have booze in my system... bad. tsk tsk , bad lini.. oh well.

i really need to buckle up my butt for a run... should stick to my plans of running twice a week to keep my arteries from calcifying.. youth maybe strong and docile, but there are exceptions to the rule especially if you spent a summer doing nothing but eat your way out of lush fiestas and delicious birthday cakes and sugar-filled delicacies like the pakaskas.. you see last week i had shoulder pains that went severe when i breathed my usual breathing pace. i guess it's an early onset of high blood pressure, and if i dont do anything about it, i may end up having a severe coronary disease...

tomorrow i will man the SIDHI booth kasi mas malamig don kesa dito.. sayang, i was almost able to persuade my mom to install an airconditioning unit here, but a cousin of mine darkened our doorsteps last week, begging my mum to get her to highschool, and in an instant, my dreams of cool mornings suddenly vanished. hay buhay. another sem basking in the ovenly heat of golden crescent.

Dog Chase

for the first time in my life, i got chased by a dog! im still in shock man, partly because i havent done anything to anger the dog, and partly because i knew if i didn't run, the bitch would've bitten me...

they say when a stranger dog barks at you, you shouldn't run, otherwise the dog will chase you in pursuit. well, that thought didn't register well in my mind when i was walking down the block to my mum's office, and an almost feline feral dog suddenly appeared out of nowhere, barked at me for several seconds, and then lunged at me! for a split second i thought i saw the menacing look of an insane evil behind the dog's reddening eyes (or maybe she just had sore eyes, you know the weather...) when it came close to almost biting me, i fell back, ran, and ran, and ran, until i was at the first flights of steps of my mum's office. my heart was racing; i looked back, and i saw the ash-furred dog barking at some passersby, and thought the dog was out of it's mind.

anywaz, to think that dogs are men's bestfriends sometimes has to be thought over otherwise it's not universally correct.

there's a view of this big canopious mango tree from my mum's office, and whenever im there, i always gaze at it's ripening fruits... the mangoes are small; i think they're the smallest among the family of mangoes. i always stare at the bunches of green mangolettes (now golden yellow) wondering when they would fall. well late that afternoon, a big gust of wind blew into the city, and we looked at the window and saw the tree shedding its fruits! it was a wonderful scene... it was like raining golden tears. ripe as they are, the mangoes struck ground with full force, and created golden splatters on the road. it was magnificent. too bad though, only a few survived the suicidal shower - we handpicked those that were still intact and ate them.. oohh the wonders of nature.

....

just a thought: i wonder if the Worms Game is still out in the market... that's the computer game i used to play when i was young. you have a team of worms who will try to kill all the other worms of the other team (the computer's team, which is most of the time madaya) using a variety of weapons that have funny antics of their own. you have ropes, guns, missiles, napalms... you can even kamikazee your worm! first you have to find a target. the worm will be on fire, blast off to the target like a rocket, kill its target, and kill itself in the process.. i love it.

maybe i'll just download it from torrent.

ugh, im in pain, because i got my retainers adjusted so my teeth hurt, and my thumb got coterized again, to remove the warts which, for the second time, appeared on my fingers.. (finger..) apparently, the last time i had dermal surgery, my derma left one itsy-bitsy sprout of a wart on my thumb. it eventually grew, and made a whole colony of warts again, so i had to have them removed. i vowed never to play for the pep squad ever... those dirty hells of drumsticks.. i even thought you could get anthrax from them..

i have a luncheon with prospective thesis partners on monday with my batch reps.. hmm... i will need a thesis partner, yes, but if he turns out to be slothier than i am, then i might just have to make a thesis all by myself. my only problem is regression anyways. i think i understand the concept but technicality will kill me. i have no memory whatsoever of the regression codes we used in stata. can't remember... so i will need the partner to regress the thesis for our own sakes...

i write well anyways... i mean sometimes when i need to...

yey, mamimili kami mamaya ng school supplies! haha exciting... parang elementary all over again.. this time it's more sophisticated though. the usual blue-and-red-lined notebooks are now binders and filler-books. the usual pencils are now sign pens or rollers. sometimes i miss the times when we would alot one afternoon to buy all the things i'd need for school. it doesn't happen that often now, because im in college and i dont need colored pastes and a big box of crayons anymore... but just to say, prepping for school is always appealing for me. the buying new materials and covering books and all... blah blah...

ok im blabbering now. i really miss internet. baey...
