No classes today because it's Immaculate Conception Day. Went to Bahay Tsinoy Museum and San Agustin Church Museum w/ Vea and Tedrick.

We ate lunch @ Greenwich Aduana Circle.

Monday

We didn't have any English class because Ma'am Cruz was absent. Ate lunch @ Goldilocks España w/ Ruth, Des, Chinky, Jona and Liszt. After eating I went to UST publishing house to buy my English book that our teacher required us to buy.

Had our first formal PE class in the afternoon. Well, it was fun because the last time i was able to play soccer was back when i was still in 4th yr high school. The only down side of our PE class is the price of the uniform. Biruin mo...600 buck yung isang set! Aus lang!

Went home w/ JOVI and then talk to her in the evening to talk about some vague matters...Hai, at last we were able to solve it. Thanks girl!

November 21, 2004
Sunday

Attend 10 am mass. Slept in the afternoon because we have a sound system service for Tita Joy's surprise birthday party for her husband @ our clubhouse. Due to that event, I wasn't able to play for CASA basketball's final games. Grabe, isang beses ko lang naisuot yung jersey ko. Hehe...aus lang kumita naman ako sa sound system namin eh. Hehe.

November 20, 2004
Saturday

Cleaned our house and my room in the morning and then in the afternoon, went to SM Megamall w/ Tita Gina, RR and Ron-Ron. Ate lunch and dinner at Triple V. While strolling around the mall I saw this shirt in Surplus Shop that costs 70 pesos. The color was nice so i didn't hesitated to buy the shirt. Haha...at last may bago na naman akong damit.

When i got home, Tin texted me at nagyaya mag Tree House (Don Antonio). I agreed kaagad kasi wala naman akong gagawin nagyong gabi. So we went there at about 11pm w/ Biong, Kat, Martin R., Mico, Sam, Jopet and JC. Umuwi na kami ng mga 2:30 am.

Watched AB Unity Games in basketball. After watching, ate lunch @ BRB w/ Shan and Jeannel. After eating, i went immediately to Eng Complex for ABSC (the team i am going to play for) vs Faculty basketball game. Played only in the second half and then scored 18 points. We won the game by a small margin unlike last year where we beat them by 13 points. After our game, the AB Unity Games Cheering Competition was held. Unfortunately, CASA lost to Economics. But still I believe that CASA icons gave their best and for me they are still the champion!

After the competition, I went to Coffee Indulgence w/ Kuya Ags, Ate Puch, Ate Joy (grabe miss ko na ang mga taong ito!), Rica, Karen, Len, Chan-Chan, Vier, Shan, Voltaire, Che, Issa, Jeannel and Ynee. I went back to AB after.

Went home w/ Jovi and then when I got home I just ate dinner and then natulog na kaagad.

November 18, 2004
Thursday

Went to class so down because of the thing that happened last night. Well, thanks to my classmates because they were there to cheer me up.

Ate lunch @ Jollibee Asturias w/ Mina and Tina. After eating, I went to Lacson Billiards Center to accompany Russ and Ester for AB Unity Games Billiards (doubles) finals between CASA and AB-BSE. Unfortunately, CASA lost by two points (7-5) and settled for silver. Congrats to AB-BSE!

November 17, 2004

Didn't attend class in CA, History and English because I was assigned as one of the ushers for the CASA Practicum Orientation for Juniors w/c was held @ the Albertus Magnus Auditorium.

After the practicum orientation, I accompanied Russ and Ester @ Lacson Billiards Center for the AB Unity Games billiards (double) elimination. Yahoo! we (CASA) were able to enter the finals against AB-BSE w/c will be held tomorrow.

Talked to Jovi in the evening and we talked about something that hurted me so much. Honestly, I had a hard time accepting it. I just hope we could fix things up.

November 16, 2004
Tuesday

Today was the opening of AB Unity Games that is why I didn't attend my class in Theo. We had our first basketball game against LM in the morning. We won the game by 5 points (54-49). Scored 10 points eventhough i just played in the first quarter and the first 3 minutes of the 4th quarter. BTW, thanks to my class (2CA1) for watching our game. After the game i went back to class kaagad to attend my Statistics class because we have a quiz. Grabe, mukhang ibabagsak ko pa ata yung 1st quiz of the sem!

After class, I went to Divisoria to buy the red shirt for the CASA volleyball team. Grabe, I saw this fake Adidas rubber shoes na pwedeng pwede ko gamitin for PE. 330 bucks lang siya. Ang kagandahan pa nito ay pwede mo siya gamitin panlakad. Ha! Bibilhin ko din yun next time!

November 15, 2004
Monday

We don't have any classes today because it's the end of Ramadan. Woke up a little late in the morning kasi madaling araw na rin ako umuwi from Mico's party last night. Played basketball @ clubhouse in the afternoon. Well, that's all for today...may pasok na ulit kami tomorrow.

In the evening, Mico celebrated his birthday party sa house nila. Grabe...ang saya saya ng birthday party niya lalo na nung pagdating ng madaling araw nung lasing ni si Martin Damdam! Grabe, super patok siya talaga at sumakit yung tiyan ko sa kakatawa!...."Reno at Pucho!" Haha! Got home @ 4:30 am!

Went to Divisoria by myself to canvass for CASA volleyball team uniform. Grabe...kung marami lang akong pera shopping to the max ako dun! After Divisoria, i went back to UST.

When I got home, I immediately went to Block 1 to play basketball. Grabe, after 1 week of rest nakapaglaro na naman ako. Chill kami sandali sa Panna after playing.

Nakuha na ni Papa yung matagal niyang pinapangarap na Honda Wave Motorcycle. Kaya yun, tuwang tuwa siya sa kanyang bagong laruan.

In the evening, I went to Sulo Hotel to attend Charisse's debut. I was one of her 18 roses and the food...yes the food is so delicious! Ang dami kong nakain!

Monday

Went to Manila Memorial Park @ about 5:45 am to celebrate All Saints Day there. Well, we expected heavy traffic on our way there but there were no traffic at all unlike before. We just experienced a little traffic inside the cemetery w/c is i think normal because of too many cars and traffic schemes. We left the cemetery @ about 9am and then proceed to village for a while.

From the village, we went to St. Peter's Parish to visit the burial ground of my mom's dad and then attend the 10 am mass there. From St. Peter's, Tito Resty treated us for lunch @ Kamayan West Ave...Whew, the best ang crispy pata, kare-kare at mangga! Sobrang sarap kaya naman busog na busog ako!

In the evening, some of my kabarkada went in our house to chill and then they drank the remaining 4 bottles of Red Horse na natira nung pre-Halloween party namin nung Friday. They all went home @ 3 am in the morning. Grabe, ilang araw na ako puyat at umiinom! Well...this is life for our barkada...mag-chill, mag-tus, magpuyat at uminom! Haha!

Kris' debut started @ about 7pm and I was one of her 18 roses. The food was great and the debut was fun.

Ate lunch @ Tajma, Katipunan w/ kat, tin, biong, cha-cha, anne and shaq. From the name of the resto it's obvious that it serves Indian/Mediterranean foods w/c has lots of spices like chili, onions and garlic. Actaully it was my 1st time to eat on that restaurant and my 1st time was great because I ordered a delicious meal. After eating, we just stayed there until 4pm. Some of us slept while chillin' out paano ba naman napak-comfy ng place na yun, puros unan kaya naman aantukin ka talaga.

When we went back to F1, we chilled for a while @ Coffee Shop and then played basketball w/ F1 Kada. Whew...ang sarap talaga mag-basketball!

Hectic Day!

Left the house @ about 7am. Chilled @ coop w/ tin, john-john and biong. Ate breakfast @ McDo Commonwealth and then drank and chilled @ Figaro Royale Place. At about 10am we decided to go to Rob Place Nova to watch "Shark Tale."

The movie was nice. Sobrang patok nung mga funny scenes sa movie and ang cute nung mga fishes at sharks lalo na si Lenny. Astig pa kasi kami lang apat (ako, tin, biong and john-john) sa sinehan, as in kaming apat lang. Solong solo namin ang movie house kumbaga parang bahay namin!

From Rob Place Nova, we proceed to SM Fairview to eat lunch @ Tokyo Tokyo. Grabe, nakakabusog paano ba naman unlimited rice sa resto na un. After eating umikot lang kami sandali tapos pumunta kami sa Starbucks West Ave. para mag-chill habang hinihintay si anne. Pagkauwi, hindi na ako lumabas after kasi pagod na pagod na ako. Diba napaka-hectic ng araw ko? Hehe!

Happy Birthday Josephus a.k.a Jopet!

Enrollment and Jopet's Birthday Celebration

This morning I enrolled for 2nd semester SY 2004-2005. I was in school as early as 7:30 am not knowing that AB students will only be allowed to enter @ 12 nn. So while killing time Me, JOVI, jannell, kring and 2 other classmates of JOVI went to Jollibee to eat. When we came back we waited for about an hour before we were allowed to enter. Finished enrolling @ about 1:30 pm. Grabe, nagkamali ako ng pagpili ng oras ng PE ko. Actually, I chose Soccer for my PE this sem. Kinuha ko yung Monday sked 3pm-5pm tapos bigla kong naalala na hanggang 11am lang nga pala ako pag Mondays kaya iniisip ko ngayon kung ano ang gagawin ko 11am-3pm kapag Mondays. Any idea?

Ate lunch @ an ihaw-ihaw restaurant w/ JOVI, Kakai and Apple. Went home @ about 3pm and then brought JOVI home.

Chilled @ john-john's house for a while w/ aaron, kuya warren and martin.

On the evening, Jopet had his birthday celebration @ their house. The food was so delicious tapos idagdag mo pa ang napakaraming beer, emperador-coke at gin-lime...Pucha solve solve ang buong barkada! Madami man nalasing (kasama na ako doon) we still enjoye the party! Went home @ about 3am definitely drunk! Haha!

On the evening, I went to Kary's surprise debut. Actually, i got no plans to stay their late but I was already enjoying the party that I drank 9 bottles of San Mig Light. Alam niyo naman siguro yung feeling na hindi mo na pianpansin kung gaano kadami yung iniinom mo, basta inom lang inom...Hehe. Eventually I went home so drunk! Hehe. Ito na yung pinakamaraming inom ko sa taong ito...Hmmm, kaya ko pa pala ng ganoon kadami. Anyways, who's party is next?

Advance Happy 18th Birthday Kary!

After 3 years in our garage and usage, our Kia Pride was already sold to a new owner. I felt sad because I had a lot of great moments w/ this car. I also had a great time driving this car because it's so economical. Sobrang tipid sa gas ng kotseng ito. Biruin mo 100 pesos lang ang ipa-karga mo ay malayo na ang mararating. Hai, i'll surely miss this car. Sana lahat ng kotse ganoon katipid.

Watched "The Notebook" DVD here in our house w/ JOVI and Mama. Hai, kahit ilang ulit ko ata panoorin ang movie na ito ay hindi ako magsasawa. Sobrang ganda talaga kasi ng movie.

On the evening, we went to Carlos' birthday treat @ Eastwood. First, we ate dinner @ Mama Rosa. We concluded Carlos' celebration @ Something's Fishy, doon na din kami uminom. What's great about Carlos' celebration is that napakadami namin. Believe it or not 18 kami andoon at all expenses paid ni Carlos. Ever since, we haven't gone sa isang gimik outside our village na ganoon kadami. Sana ganoon palagi kasi sobrang saya..."the more the merrier!" Haha!

Happy Birthday Carlos!

Friday

Today was a basketball day for me. I haven't played basketball for quite sometime na rin at matagal ko na din hindi nakakalaro ang mga kabarkada ko. So, we planned to reserve the Clubhouse from 7pm-10pm to play basketball. All of us had a great game. Siguro dahil lahat kami matagal ng inaasam makapaglaro ng basketball. Actually, our barkada is already planning to do it regularly para naman mapanatili naming nasa kondisyon yung mga katawan namin in preparation for the summer leagues.

Kaya...game na!

Well...I still can't get over from the great thing that happened to me yesterday. Anyways, I stayed again all day here in the house.

I started reading the book "By The River Piedra, I sat down and wept" because it was recommended to me by Jovi.

Sunday

Our choir (FYC) sang for the 10 am mass in our church.

Well, i'm feeling better now and that is because i was quite responsible enough to drink medicine and take a rest. I just hate being sick lang talaga especially if it's cough and colds and then your throat hurts too. For the whole day, I was busy doing my English essays w/c is due tomorrow.

At about 5pm, Gilbey called me up and invited to me to play basketball. As i have said i'm already feeling better so i didn't refuse his invitation, changed basketball attire and went to the basketball court immediately to play ball! Well, I just love playing basketball w/ Gilbey's barkada because they play so well and they add humor to the game!

PBA Philippine Cup (All-Pinoy Cup) opened today! Talk n Text defeated SanMig Beermen (who is wearing throwback jerseys of 1975), 93-89.

October 2, 2004
Saturday

Well, it's a rest day for me today. I am bothered by bad cough and colds plus my throat hurts so much. I just want to get well immediately because it's Finals week already plus I have to attend a debut next Saturday and a Party on Monday.

For the whole day I was doing my essays in English.

Today was also the NCAA-UAAP all-star game. Side-events such as 3-point shootout, 2-3 ball and slam dunk competition was dominated by UAAP players namely JC Tiu of ADMU (3 pt shootout), Canuday and Cabahug of AdU (2-3 ball) and KG Cañaleta of UE (slam dunk) who jumped over a man who is half standing in a chair while reading a newspaper. Whew, this KG Cañaleta is flying! 1st game was between UAAP 1 (UP, FEU, UST-Luanzon and De Guzman, NU) vs. NCAA 1 (PCU, CSJL, JRU, MIT). UAAP 1 won it, 58-54 led by the All-Star MVP Toti Almeda of UP. The main game was UAAP 2 (ADMU, DLSU, AdU, UE) vs. NCAA 2 (SBC, SSC, CSB, UPHDS). This game was different because NCAA 2 bested UAAP 2, 67-64. NCAA 2 was led by All-star game MVP Leo Najorda of SSC. It was the 1st win of NCAA all-stars against UAAP all-stars after 3 games. I think w/ the win of NCAA 2, UAAP shouldn't be complacent of the all-star games to come, because NCAA proved that they have also the firepower just like the UAAP.

What a day...Eventhough I stayed the whole day in the house, I still had fun! I just wish my condition will be better tomorrow.

2004-10-02T09:48:00.000+08:00

As you can see, I haven't updated my blog for 2 weeks already. Finals will start on Monday at super tambak na kami ng mga projects i couldn't find time to update my blog na. Please bear w/ me kung medyo mahaba ang entry ko ngayon...kung sipagin kayong basahin eh di ok!...kung hindi oks lang din...

Friday

It was a very tiring day for me today siguro dahil sobrang sama na ng ubo ko. Anyways, I'm also very happy kasi i got to spend half of my day w/ the girl i love so much eventhough we were there lang sa Pav na for so long without doing anything. Her mere presence beside me completes my day and helps me forget that i'm sick. I'll take a rest now, i'm really having a hard time coping up w/ my cough and colds.

Happy Birthday ATE JENG!

After 4 grueling recording days for our radio play in Pinoy, today was the checking and evaluation. Honestly, it wasn't good. The editing and reception was so bad. Good thing we had funny commercials and i just wish it could help us to get a higher score.

September 27, 2004
Monday

Last day of recording...we needed this day badly because our radio play's deadline will be tomorrow and we haven't finished recording yet. I still need to sleep late to edit the recordings. Hai...i feel so bad because i think we could have made a better radio play if we didn't cram.

September 26, 2004
Sunday

3rd day of recording...well we were quite few unlike yesterday because it's a Sunday w/c is family day. At least we had done something to lessen the burden we are having. We still need tomorrow to wrap it up.

Saturday

We didn't had a successful recording last Thursday at Denisse's house becasue of some technical problems. So we only have 3 days left to record for our radio play in Pinoy and it will start today. 8am...we are having problems on where are we going to record...finally I volunteered my place because equipments are already here, we have this vacant room and all we need was complete silence. We were able to start recording but we wasn't able to finish half of our long radio play. It just means that we would need to sacrifice tomorrow for our recording.

At the nightcap...I went to Dencio's Banawe to watch Sounds Fishy's gig. Drank 4 bottles of San Mig Whappak and lotsa pulutan! Haha! Went home very early...about 1am and honetsly am drunk! Hic!

Actually I had no plan on staying late in school but Czare asked me to attend the Student's Assembly at 2pm. So i went there. I wasn't expecting that much from the assmebly not until when those freshmen tried to fight back the higher batches. Well, it wasn't only a battle of the batches it became also a battle of the political parties. Look, politics in AB is full of life good thing i am a member of one great political party which is The Students' Democratic Party...Keeping the flame of Liberalism alive in AB!

After an ecstatic students assembly, I had to unwind a little so Che, Issa, Dennis, Jean, Voltaire, Len and I watched Artistang Artlets Major Prod entitled "Anatomiya ng Korupsyon" @ Albertus Magnus Audi. It was a good play because it shows how dirty corruption is, not only in politcs but even in law offices as well. I had some friends who acted in the play. To name a few were Ginx, Steeve, Fatso, Claire, EJ, Kuya Julz, and many others. From the title it looks serious but actually it was full of humor!

Our group in Pinoy radio play went to Denisse's house to start recording. Unfortunately we didn't have any success because of technical problems. The radio play's deadline is on Tuesday already. It means we need to make use of the weekend for our recording of this very important radio play.

We had this final game in PE against Green team and I had a good game again. We won the game and I scored eight points next to my teammate Jeri game high 9 points. After a tiring game, I had to attend to 3 meetings that will all start @ 3pm. One is for SDP, the other is for Com-Ach and the last one is for Broadquest. Well, I was able to balance my time for SDP and Com-Ach so i just gave up my commitment for Broadquest because i wasn't able to attend its meeting.

Got results of Quiz in NatSci and again I failed it and it seems that i would fail my quizzes this finals period. But i still got two weeks to make up for failed quizzes not only in NatSci but also to my other subjects most especially Finance and Pinoy. I played my best game in PE today, scored nine points and helped my team win against green team and get a grade of 1.25 for individual performance.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY cuzn RR!

Went to Tutuban w/ Vea, Grace, Franco, Jen, Abee and Marvie...Honestly, I'm frustrated! If only i brought enough money, I could already bought a pair of pants, a polo, a slippers and a shoes. This just tells that items sold in Tutuban are so cheap. But with the money i have a while ago i was still able to buy a gift for my cousin, a fake Nike baller ID and a cellphone case all for 180 bucks. Hmmm, I would surely go back there, bring enough money and buy the pants, polo, slippers and shoes. I'm tired but i enjoyed my trip to Tutuban today! By the way...Thank you Tita Verna for treating me @ Pancake house!

A while ago, i watched the Nestle NonStop Cheerdance Competition @ The Big Dome. Was sitting in the Upper B section (Thanks Evarose for the ticket!) w/ Czare, Mike, Rej and Angel. UST Salinggawi Dance Troupe was again the champions! It was their 3rd straight already! Whew! Salinggawi's so good talaga! 2nd place went to UP and FEU placed 3rd. I still want to say congrats to these schools because they gave their best. One factor of the win of UST was their fans in w/c i am included. Here's a view of the UST gallery during the competition. (Thanks Hannah for the pic!)

Last for the day was when we treated our grandma for dinner @ Shakey's Katipunan because it was grandparent's day today. I need to sleep na kasi dalwang araw na akong puyat! Haha!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA!

Today's the birthday of the best father in the world...My Papa Deo! So, we had a lunch celebration dito sa bahay w/ some of our relatives because my ate & I won't be around tonight because we both have a debut to attend to.

During the night cap, i attended Abee's debut at Krokodile Grill Libis. It was my 3rd debut for this month and i still have 1 more to go next week. After going to Abee's debut i followed my ate @ Joeben's debut @ our clubhouse. I was needed also in that party because we were the one who provided the sound system for the band. Well, the party again finished late as in 4am. Good luck sa akin may papanoorin pa akong cheerdance tomorrow at sana hindi ako tamaan ng pagod. Hehehe.

At last, after 4 days of work work work, MMIAP was a success! What made it more successful is Ms. CA grabbed 1st runner up while Mr. CA (w/c is my friend Elvin) won the Mr. Ideal Artlet Personality Award. Other contestants gave thier best and i still would like to congratulate them. Most of all i congratulate Elvin and Ate Rissa (Ms. CA). CA Rocks talaga! Haha!

Got home at about 8am from Mina's fun and emotional debut last night. Upon my arrival i immediately change my clothes so i could already clean the van that was so dirty because of strong rains last night. After cleaning i took a bath and then went to church because our choir was scheduled to sing.

I slept this afternoon because i need to make up for my lack of sleep. I woke up at 4pm and Hannah's debut was scheduled to start at that time so i immediately took a bath and change clothes because i don't want to be late for her special celebration. Good thing it will be held @ Tivoli Royale Country Club a 10 minute ride for our place.

I had a great time at Hannah's debut. I got to meet friends i haven't seen for a long time and i get to know new friends as well. I was part of her version of 18 roses w/c is called 18 balloons and I had a fun swimming most especially the slide were Moinica had her moment. Hehe. Lastly, Hannah was so pretty as in super pretty a while ago in her debut! Well, Hannah's pretty all the time...Hannah...Happy happy 18th birthday again!

Tonight was Mina's debut and we were the earliest to arrive there in Montalban expecting that the program would start early as well. I was w/ Moe, Kevin, Voltaire, Chan-Chan and Khenne. While waiting, Tina called us up asking a favor to fetch them in Fairview because their transpo got broken on their way to Montalban. Tina was w/ AK, Toni and Mayee amd we didn't hesitated to fetch them because the original plan was "The Gang" would go there at the same time. And it would be so fun if we were together. Unfortunately, something happened that cause us to have some misunderstandings. Well, I don't want to elaborate on it because we are already okay and have fixed the problem. You know it's just all part of a barkada, and in my opinion it is the one that keeps our friendship stronger. The Gang had a bonding until 3 in the morning but i couldn't help my tiredness so i just fell asleep w/o me knowing.

Lastly, I had a great time at Mina's debut. I wasn't expecting that i would be with partying people from the other political party. But it's already out of the school premises so nothing personal about it. I was part of Mina's 18 roses and Mina looked very pretty in her outfit. Happy Birthday again Mina!

It's been a long time already since me and my highschool barkada went out for a gimik and it all ended today. I visited Claret after 3 months to meet my highschool friends and 2 of my good teachers. These 2 good teachers of ours trated us for dinner at Trellis Kalayaan Avenue. The food was great and we talked about so many things. Well, i just miss my highschool days and most especially my school even though it is now undergoing major changes in it's facade and even in it's interior. But still, i'll always be proud that i graduated from Claret School of QC!

My wish didn't happen...we had classes today. Good thing we didn't have any heavy work for the day. In English, we watched this good movie entitled "Kramer vs. Kramer." Honestly, the movie was so great. I'm not used to watching drama movies but this one grabbed my attention. Meryll Streep and Dustin Hoffmann acted very well and the story was very nice. It didn't end the way i wanted it to happen but still i enjoyed it. Actually this movie is very important because it is the topic of our essay in English w/c is a major requirement for the Finals period.

I remembered that THE GANG will have a reunion today. The Gang is my one of my barkada in UST, the members are Me, AK(my bestfriend), Moe, Toni, Tina, Mina, Kevin and Voltaire. Moe is already working @ a call cneter and Kevin will take up Nursing in Trinity College next sem. We haven't seen the both of them for a long time that's why we planned to have a reunion today. First we had lunch @ Momo's and then we watched USTFU Volleyball games @ the Sports Complex. We then went to SM Manila because Moe treated us @ McDo and then watched the movie "Laws of Attraction." The movie was good, it was very romantic and funny. Last stop for the night was @ Lisa's Canteen. I went home w/ Moe @ about 10 pm but it's okay because waht's important is I get to be w/ The Gang again. Hai, just can't wait for Mina's debut on Saturday! Ciao!

Thursday

I woke up at about 4am today, rains are still strong and with winds already. I immediately listened to AM radio to know if there is already an announcement of suspension of classes. Actually there is an announcement but it's about the suspension of classes for the grade school and highschool in NCR. So i still prepared myself for school and left at about 6:30 am. The bus i rode was so full but my travel was so fast. When i arrived @ UST the gates were closed and many people were outside. That was also the time I looked at my cellphone because i'm afraid to bring it out inside the bus, there were 3 messages 2 of which saying that our classes was already suspended. So i went home and again i wasted 40 bucks for nothing so all in all i wasted 80 bucks for two days and i feel so bad about it.

The best thing to do when classes are suspended...MALL! Went to SM Megamall and Shang Ri La Plaza this afternoon w/ my siters, cousins and my aunt. It was the first time I drove going to Shang Ri La and i found out that there level parking was so high. It was also my first time to come back to that mall after quite some time already. It was still the same old Shang Ri La Plaza that I used to go before but with more shops.

Rains are not that strong anymore but winds are still blowing strong. I hope classes would be suspended again tomorrow because honestly wala na akong gana pumasok. Ok lang sila? Wednesday and Thursday walang pasok tapos Friday meron tapos Saturday and Sunday wala na naman. Kaasar. Hindi na lang nila ituloy-tuloy. Hehe.

Last year, our classes were suspended a number of times due to heavy rains and typhoon. This year it never happened not until today. Since last night heavy rains were pouring over the whole Metro and this caused to bring floods to some parts of the city. I was on my way to school when i received a number of text including 1 coming from my mom telling me to go home because classes are already suspended. So i went down the FX and went home but I got bad trip because i already paid my FX. All in all i spent/wasted 80 pesos for my fare that did not go far. Going home i saw that the traffic was so horrible and there are some areas that were flooded already just because of heavy rains.

I had a great sleep this afternoon because the weather was so cold. As I watch the news I feel pity with those who were affected greatly by the heavy rains. I hope it would end by tomorrow but as of tonight rains are still pouring hard. Am I expecting another suspension of classes? I also hope that it would be announced earlier.

I reported in History class today and to make my report a little lively I had to include a game in my report. At first the class was so active but after my game they become bored again. Oh well, i couldn't blame my classmates because definitely the time of our History class is very boring, mag-uuwian na kasi..Hehe..

This afternoon, I attended the GA of CASA Reel which is my guild this schoolyear. CASA Reel is the guild for students who are into movies. Actually, CASA Channel was my first choice but something happened that transferred me to CASA Reel. Anyways, Reel is one of my top choices when I was still choosing a guild to join and I think I would learn something different from this guild.

Woke up with with a bad back, maybe an effect of the work we had yesterday...

We had a quiz in NatSci this morning and I had a hard time answering it.

The last time I had a class picture was when I was still in 4th year highschool. Today, our class, 2ca1, had our first class picture ever. My classmates were so picture addict that they were not contented with just a class picture so we requested the photographer to take individual group pictures. It was that time that the division of the class was seen. Eventhough, it never affected 2ca1, we are still united and at peace! Haha!

Our Philo prof was absent and then we watched the movie "Awakening" in English.

At last, I already found a net cafe who has an IR-transfer service. Though it costs 5 pesos it has the same price if you would e-mail it from the cellphone.

After 11 years of service, Ate Merlyn was asked by Mama to leave due to unexpected events that happened this morning.

Today, I joined one of the major projects of AB Com-Ach which is Gawad Kalinga, YFC is our partner in this activity. Gawad Kalinga is a SLUM site in Baseco, Tondo which is now being developed through the good effort of different organizations and companies. We were there to build houses for the poor families who live there. For the whole day we dig land were the hollow blocks and still trusses were placed. It's very tiring but thinking that it is for the good of others i was inspired. I went home w/ wounds in my hands and bodyache but I would still want to go back there and continue my service for the poor families.

Happy Birthday Thirdy!

As you all know, I was so drunk last night so I woke up today @ 11:30 am and with a headache. This afternoon I still need to drive because we have a wedding of to attend. So I drank Tylenol and see if it would relieve my headaches.

Good thing, Tylenol was effective. We left the house @ about 2:30 pm. The person to be wed is the son of my Mom's cousin. Funny because I was never introduced to this cousin of mine. The wedding rites was held @ Sta. Maria de La Strada in Katipunan. Reception was @ Camelot Hotel in Mo. Ignacia. As far as i know it was my first time to enter this hotel. Honestly, I was not satisfied w/ the food. It's not that it wasn't delicious but the food has no distinct taste like other hotels.

Gotta sleep now coz i still need to wake up early tomorrow. Nyt!

It's just today that I realized that I need to let go of a person who i really love but can't love me in return. I have been told many times by my friends that she's not for me and to let her go but i keep on saying "no" but now i realize that letting her go and just be friends would be better for me. My message for that person is "thanks for appreciating every little thing that I have done and you'll always be a special someone for me. I'm always here for you even as a friend! Ayt?!"

Had lunch w/ Besty, Toni, Tina and Mina @ Merrie's. I miss these gals that's why i had fun eating with them.

This evening i had an inuman w/ 2 of my closest friends. We hadn't done this for quite sometime so i was the one who invited them here in our house. Each of us finished 3 bottles of Red Horse and eventually got drunk after. Well at least we had a great bonding.

August 19, 2004
Thursday

We had a recitation in Marketing and i wasn't prepared for it. Usually if you volunteered to answer an easier question will be asked to you. So i volunteered because i might be able to answer the question. Indeed, i was able to answer it, though my answer was incomplete our prof accepted and gave me a good grade. plus i was able to answer again so my grade became higher. After a graded recitation, we had a quiz in History and for sure i will fail it. Tsk tsk tsk...Not a good start in History for this finals period after i got a 1.75 in the prelims period. Well, i'll just do better in the next quizzes and in our report.

Went to SM Megamall to buy a gift for our wedding on Saturday. Well, it will be the 2nd time this week that i went to Megamall. Grabe, parang tambayan ko na lang ang mall na iyon!

Happy Birthday Ate Niki, the best Ate in the world!(In the pix:Ate Niki, Me and Nina!)

My org, AB Com-Ach, had it's GA this afternoon @ the Rizal Conf. Hall. The GA was good. All the hardwork and effort that we did paid off. Though there were only few members who attended i think they had fun.

There is this one thing that happened in the GA that I won't forget and made my day even happier. It is a very shocking moment because i wasn't expecting that it would happen. How i wish na yung taong tinutukoy ko ay nasa tamang pag-iisip nung mga panahong nangyari ang incident.

After the GA we proceed to Dimsum and Dumplings Tomas Morato w/ Com-Ach peeps and some kapamilya to eat dinner. We were so noisy in Dimsum and Dumplings because we kept on playing different mind games. After Dimsum and Dumplings, we went to Starbucks to chill out. Jesse and I already went home @ 11pm. It's like i don't have any classes tomorrow and i don't have a recitation in Marketing and quiz in History.

Well, today was just an ordinary day. Some of my committee members helped me do some materials for our GA tomorrow.

I downloaded Chikka tonight and it's just now that i realized that Chikka indeed is a great help if you are saving your load.

Monday

On Wednesday my org (AB Com Ach) will have its GA. My committee was tasked to do the registration materials like name tags and registration form. The title of our GA is "Engines ready and Tanks fueled up" so Badet (one of my committee members) thought of making a car shaped name-tag so it would go well with the theme of the GA. I just hope AB COM-ACH members would appreciate what our committee would prepare for them.

Went to SM Megamall to buy some groceries. It's like I wasn't there last Friday but nothing has chnaged since then. Hehe. I'll sleep now, I have been sleeping late for the past 3 days already and i need to make up for it. Good night. Ciao!

This morning we had a sound system service @ Quirino Grandstand for Tito Bong's Annual Alay Lakad. Last year, we were the ones who also serviced that event but it was held in Quezon City Circle. It was a fun day especially for the different medicine schools and drug companies that attended the event. They had a chance to have aerobics with Philippine Aerobics team even though the weather wasn't that good. It was also a moment for my mom who joined the aerobics. After our service we ate breakfast @ Tita Norkie's McDonalds at E. Rodriguez ave., QC. McDo's Sausage McMuffin w/ egg, Hash brown and Hot Choco are one of the most delicious breakfast meal I have ever tasted in my whole life.

This morning, Tito Manny (my father's cousin) will have their House Blessing. Their new house is located @ Verdana Homes Las Piñas (nr. Cavite boundary). Before we went there we attended a Mass for Lola Choleng (Tito Manny's mom) @ Manila Memorial Park, Sucat. Tito Manny's house was nice. Usually houses in that newly opened village had similar styles, but Tito Manny's house was different. Actually their house stands out because it was the only house in their street. We ate breakfast and lunch at their new house and the food was so delicious. The other good thing is we were able to bond and chat with some of my cousins who I don't see often like Dea, Gelly and JC. We also have a cutesy cousin named Jericho. I'll post our picture next time. The whole morning and afternoon was a great one even though I'm quite sleepy.

We arrived home @ about 4 pm and i immediately slept because I want to make up for my 1 hour sleep last night. I woke up @ 9pm just to eat dinner and I slept again. I still need to wake up early tomorrow morning because we have a sound system service, 6am @ Quirino Grandstand.

This afternoon, I went to SM Megamall to buy something for my friend. It was actually the second time this week that i went to that mall.

After I went to Megamall, i proceed to Valyn's house for her despedida party. After the dinner @ her house, we transferred to Block 1 to chill and spend time w/ Valyn. We were asked by the security guards to leave because it was already prohibited to stay in that place in that time of the night. So we thought of a place were we could be with Valyn and at the same time we could chill. We end up @ Mocha Blends, Royale Place. We were there from 12 am to 2:30 am, drinking coffee and everything. Actually I plan to leave early because I still need to wake up early the next morning. But I realized that I don't have any idea when Valyn would come back again so i decided to stay. Anyways I'm used to lack of sleep and what's important for me is to be with one of my closest kabarkada, who is Valyn. Believe it or not, there were 17 barkada members who stayed and witnessed Valyn's last hour here in Manila and was saddened upon her daperture. I wasn't expecting that many because it was already late but that's how much me and my friends value Valyn. She's one of the pillars of our barkada and a very vital part of it as well and that is why she's the Brightest Star of our barkada! Valyn, words couldn't express how important you are to us. We are going to miss you so much! Our barkada always seems to be incomplete without you. Good thing the skies are there so we could see you every time we miss you...Valyn, the brightest star of our barkada.

This afternoon, we watched some of our classmates perform @ the ABSC Linggo ng Wika variety show entitled "Aba Bongga." The program was great. Everyone who performed did a good job. It was a show with different types of talents presented like dancing, singing and even acting.

Well, that was just the only thing that happened today. I'll go now. Ciao!

After 4 grueling days of preliminary examinations it's back to normal again. Today is the 1st day of the Finals period of the 1st sem. Usually during this day, results of our prelims exam are given. 1st subject to give results is NatSci were I got a 49/80 (81%) in the exams and my prelims grade is 85. In Finance I got an 8/16 (75%) in the exams and a prelims grade of 81. After Finance is Philo were I got a 46/70 (83%) and in English I got a 29/55 (76%) in my prelims exam. Both English and Philo wasn't able to give out yet our prelims grade. Actually, I can't believe that I passed NatSci and Finance because I had a hard time answering their exams. But, I am still not quite satisfied w/ the results because i think that I can do better, it's just that i didn't give much time studying in these subjects. I think i just need to do better this finals period to get higher grades and better results.

We had our practical test in PE and I officiated a game.

I was chosen as the AB Com-Ach Special Projects Committee Head for this school year. This is a big achievement for me because I am only a new member. I just want to thank the officers especially Jeannel for believing in my capabilities and choosing me. It may require a lot of work but it's okay because I want to be active and be a big help in the only org i joined this year. So, watch out for the Special Projects Committee of AB Com-Ach!

We had our Preliminary Exams in Marketing today. Sir Nicky said that our test is very easy and it's just a walk in the park, but it wasn't. Sa lahat ng test na nabigay na ni Sir Nicky ito na yung pinakamahirap. I studied, i even went to the library to study but nothing came out of my brain. I guess i had this what they call mental block. I just hope that I could still pass this exam even w/ flying colors. Remember, Marketing is my major for this sem and it's not very easy to fail this subject or else...i'm doomed!

We don't have any classes today because it's the feast of St. Dominic, one of the patron saints of UST. I went to SM Megamall w/ Tita Gina to buy a new pair of sneakers. It's been a year and a half since the last time i bought a pair of sneakers. I bought this Umbro Prism worth 1790 bucks @ Cinderella. The reason why i bought the brand Umbro is because it's tried and tested plus it's very light and has a soft insole for a very low price compared to other brands. We had a great lunch @ Triple V were i ordered Laing, Bopis, Kamayan Salad(green mango, tomatoes and onions w/ bagoong) and 2 orders of rice. I went home w/ my stomach so full! That's all for today. I'll study now for my Marketing prelims tomorrow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BES (ABBY)!

Our family had lunch @ Tito Edel's place. Tito Edel is my ninong who has ALS. Well, the lunch was kinda great because it's has been already a long time since we had lunch w/ his family. Got home at about 5pm and then to Block 1 immediately because Chad and friends invited us to play ball. Our game was good not until when i injured my shoulders. Because the floor is a little bit wet, so after i shoot a lay-up i slipped and to avoid my head to hit the floor i let my shoulders support my body. I heard a crack in my fall but still i continued playing because it did not hurt that much. My friends told me to observe it for a while and if doesn't improve in the next few days i must have it check. Well, as of now it hurts a little and i couldn't stretch it fully. I just hope it wouldn't get worse tomorrow.

We don't have any classes tomorrow so it means i could chill @ John-John's place tonight. We already borrowed a Magic Mic from Jopet that save us from spending in a KTV house. Well, i'll go now, my friends are waiting @ John's house already and i'm so excited to sing! Ciao!

I had a great sleep last night because I was able to make up for my 4 days sleepless nights. I just had my haircut this morning. This afternoon naman, i attended the SDP party convention. There were a good number of new members that i know have potentials to become great leader someday. After the party convention, Che, one of the new members of our party treat us @ Cafe Dapitz because it was her birthday. I had 3 bottles of SMB Strong Ice and after that, I felt dizzy already maybe because my stomach was not full then. I went home tipsy and quite early, about 11pm. When i arrive home, i slept immediately because of headache. Hic! Nyt!

Friday

We don't have any classes today because of the State of Community Address of Father Rector of UST. Actually, in student's term we call this holiday as rest day after 3 grueling days of prelims exams. I just stayed home the whole day but played basketball @ Block 1 for a while w/ Mico, John-John, Carlos, Biong and Haron. I will sleep early tonight because I want to make up for 4 days of sleepless nights. I'll go now. Nyt!

For my OTW this week:

Dippie's Song OTW is "MY PLACE" by Nelly feat. Jahiem. This song immediately became one of the top song's in Soul Review of Wave 89.1.

So here goes the lyrics of the song:

My Place
Nelly feat. Jaheim

[Nelly]
I used to pride myself on being the other man
But now it's flipped and I don't want you with no other man
Why can't you understand that, anything I'm offering
I gave you the world, but you just wanted arguing
From the time I picked you up, until the time I dropped you off again
Even flipped out on me at the mall again
It's all his fault again that's what you tellin all ya friends
I ain't pointing fingers ma, i just wanna call again
See how ya day going I know they stressin on ya
I know them times get hard that's why I'm checkin on ya
It's yours truly ma, I got little message for ya
Anything he can do, girl I can do better for ya
Cause

Hook: [Nelly]
When we laugh or we cry it's together
Through the rain and the stormiest weather
We gon still be as one it's forever, it's forever

Chorus: [Jaheim]
Won't you come on and go with me (oh girl)
Come on over to my place
Won't you sit ya self down and take a seat
and let me ease ya mind girl
We gon do it our way (our way)

[Nelly]
I heard your friend tell a friend that told a friend of mine
That you was thinking that we should do it one more time
If this ain't the truth then hopefully it's not a lie
Cause I ain't got no issue with hitting that another time
We never had a problem with gettin it done
Disagreed upon a lot ma, but the sex wouldn't one
Now check it I know you get excited (Still) when I come around and bite it (gurl)
Quit frownin up and quit actin like you don't like it

I like it (I know you like), I like it (You really like it), I really, really like it,
I want it (You really want it), adore it (adore it), so come with me enjoy it

Hook: [Nelly]
When we laugh or we cry it's together
Through the rain and the stormiest weather
We gon still be as one it's forever, it's forever

Chorus: [Jaheim]
Won't you come on and go with me (oh girl)
Come on over to my place
Won't you sit ya self down and take a seat
and let me ease ya mind girl
We gon do it our way (our way)

Bridge: [Nelly]
Shawty where you been
Feels like a long time, long long time since I seen ya
Yes it has girl, and I know I said some Fucked up things to you before
But girl you know I didn't mean it
I didn't mean one single word
I never meant one single word
If I could take back every word I would and more fa sho
If I thought that you believe it
Cause you make my life so convinient for me

Hook: [Nelly]
When we laugh or we cry it's together
Through the rain and the stormiest weather
We gon still be as one it's forever, it's forever

Chorus: [Jaheim]
Won't you come on and go with me (oh girl)
Come on over to my place
Won't you sit ya self down and take a seat
and let me ease ya mind girl
We gon do it our way (our way)

Thursday

Last day of Prelims Exam for this week because we still have Marketing next Tuesday. Scheduled exam for today is English and Nat Sci and to be honest, i had again a hard time answering especially the Nat Sci test. There were some items that i wasn't able to study. But i'm still hoping that i could still pass both tests especially the Nat Sci test.

After the exams, i went to G4 w/ 2ca1 barkada to watch "Ella Enchanted." My movie ticket was free because i used my GenTxt (One free movie ticket for every purchase of four movie tickets in any Ayala Cinemas except GB3). The movie was good and Anne Hathaway was so pretty. After the movie, we ate dinner @ Italianni's were we saw Kris Aquino, her beau Mark Lapid and her son Josh. The food was delicious and again i was able to use my GenTxt (free dessert for P500 minimum purchase). It was only now that i realized that GenTxt is a great discount/privilege card. So if you are a Globe subscriber, i invite you to get GenTxt card and be 1 of us!

Pam and Abee went home after the movie and dinner but Jen, Badet and Marvie doesn't want to go home yet, so after G4 we went to Tapika to watch 17:28 and drink a little. It was the first time we had a simultaneous gimik like this. The 3 of them left @ about 11 pm. After 20 minutes Valyn, John-John, Mico, JC, Cha-Cha, Martin and Anne arrived. We finsihed the program and went home at about 3am.

I had a great night w/ my 2ca1 because we don't usually have this kind of gimiks. The only thing that made the night bad is when "someone" left my lighter @ Tapika after she borrowed it. I love pa man din my lighter because it was given by Jen and it was my very first lighter. Anyways, i don't want to think about it anymore because i just feel so bad. I'll go now because i'm already tired. Good Night. Hic!

Wednesday

Scheduled exams for today is Finance and Filipino. I can say that today's test might be the most difficult of all the exams i will take. Finance have only 16 items but requires a lot of solutions while Filipino is very long that 1 hour is not enough. I just hope i could pass these exams even w/ flying colors.

At last, i got my renewed GenTxt card. GenTxt became better w/ ,ore frrebies and privileges plus it's validity is now 2 years. Well, another 2 difficult tests for tomorrow. I'll go now. Nyt!

Tuesday

It's our first day of Preliminary Exams. First two exams were Computer and History and both were not that hard. Honestly, i didn't have a hard time answering the tests but of course i am not confident that i would pass both tests. I'll just hope for the best. I think tomorrow's exam w/c is Finance and Pinoy would be harder than today. It just means that i must start studyin now. Whew, one day down...two more to go!

Happy Birthday Monique!

Tuesday

Today's our last regular classes before preliminary exams. We are scheduled to have our final quiz in Fianace but our pref was absent, the next subject was Philo were we already had our prelims. The test was quite hard and i'm not quite sure if i would pass it. Well, I thin i still got a hang-over from our outing. Well, I must remember that life is not full of enjoyment, there would always be hardships and this makes life worth it! I'll go now, i'll study na for my Computer and History Prelims tomorrow. Ciao!

Good luck to those who would also take their prelims this week!

Sunday

Today's our last day in Batangas, woke up @ 8 am although we slept late. Last night was a great one. We had a delicious dinner and a fun inuman at the seashore. Actually i have already planned to wake up early today because i still want to swim, get dark and burned. So with the sun shining so high i went swimming up to 10:30 am and after that i noticed that my skin's color is already changing and i was already feeling my sunburn. Ouch. But it's okay, at least i have achieved my ultimate plan for summer...to get dark and have sunburn because of the beach! Also, for the first time in my whole life, i had beer, kakanin and coffee for breakfast. Perfect combination diba? "Wait, ang sakit ata ng tiyan ko...Hehe.

Checked out at the resort at 1:30 pm because my friends woke up so late and our final stop for our outing is Leslie's Bulalohan at Tagyatay. We chose that place because i know that my friends would love to see the great view of Taal Volcano from there. Arrived there @ about 2:30 pm and immediately ordered our lunch because of hunger. The food was great, from bulalo, to crispy pata and calamares! From our P 6400 outing budget, there is still P 600 left so we used it for our lunch. The total bill for our lunch was P 2,150 quite expensive but it's worth it because we enjoyed the food. Basically, each person who joined the outing spent a thousand bucks. Well, not bad for a great overnight outing and we're planning to have it all over again! Hehe!

After a great and tiring outing, the best way to conclude it is to hear mass and thank the LORD for a wonderful and safe outing. We hear mass @ St. Peter's Parish and then went home to our own houses tired...very tired. I'm gonna rest now, i still need to study for my Finance quiz and Philo Prelims tomorrow. Good luck sa akin! Haha!

To JC, John-John, Cha-Cha, Mico, Jopet & anne: Thank You Very Much for your support. Without you guys, this outing would never push through. I had lotsa fun w/ you guys and i hope you enjoyed as much as i did. I also hope that it won't be our last outing and the next one to come would more and merrier! Thanks again guys! Kuya Nards, thanks din! The best ka na drayber! Hehe!

To Valyn (the brightest star of our barkada): The outing we had was actually for you. I/we planned it so that while you are having your vacation here in Manila, you could enjoy our company longer and in a wonderful place. Remember, I wasn't able to come w/ you in Laguna that is why i insisted for this outing to push through because i want to make up for my absence in your last outing. Thanks for coming by and the the great moments i had w/ the barkada most especially you will always be remembered. I hope you would also cherish our moments and when you get to recall those moments you'll remember us/me. I'm sure gonna miss you Valyn when you leave. Love yah friend! Friends 04 keeps! Mwah!

Saturday

After 2 weeks of planning and budgeting....We're off to Nasugbu, Batangas for our barkada outing. The ones who joined the outing were Valyn, JC, John-John, Cha-Cha, Jopet and anne w/ Kuya Nards as our driver. Meeting time and place was 3 am @ John's house. It was me, Mico and Jc who were the first ones who arrived. Cha-Cha and Valyn arrived @ 4 am already. We left Manila @ about
5 am, early but at least we could pass by a traffic-free Coastal Road for a shorter route going to Batangas. We had breakfast @ McDo Tagaytay @ about 7am and the left their @ 8 am. It was an hour and a half drive from Tagaytay to our destination which is Munting Buhangin Beach Camp in Nasugbu, Batangas. The weather was great, the sun was shining so high, this is what we dreamed of a summer-like outing on a rainy day season. Arrived @ our destination @ about 9:30 am and we reserved the Family Room III w/c is worth 2190 bucks. The room was great air-conditioned, 2 double deck beds, a ref, a service table and a clean bathroom plus compliment it w/ a ihawan and ato dining table outside. Our check in time was still @ 2 pm so while waiting, we asked Kuya Nards look after our things as we already started swimming in the beach even w/ the blazing heat of the sun. The administration allowed us to check-in @ 12 so Kuya Nards already placed our things inside and started cooking rice and grilling the chicken bbq. We ate lunch @ 2pm, although we got short of the food, we still enjoyed it most especially w/ beer. After eating, we went back again to swim. We again had a short break and then @ about 5pm, we enjoyed the great sunset as we walk through the seashore. It was low tide then and we took pictures, lotsa pictures! We also saw different sea creatures like starfish, crablets, a red tape worm?, a leech and other unusual sea creatures. After a tiring whole day, we had grilled liempo, hotdog and longanisa for dinner plus compliment it w/ beer...a superb dinner! After dinner, we took a rest for a while and then at about 11 pm we started to go back @ the seashore, laid our banig @ the sand and drank all night long as we played w/ the sand, listen to the sound of the waves and gazed at the moon w/c is actually a blue moon! The scene was so great, it was the first time i had this kind of inuman. We ended our inuman @ about 3 am and i already slept because of fatigue and i still want to wake up early because i will still swim later when the sun shines!

Well, today might be the best Saturday of the year for me! The moments i had w/ my barkada is truly great. Although tired, just being with them in a wonderful night like this eased out every problems and fatigue i have. Thanks guys! Good night!

Friday

For today, we finshed the movie "Primal Fear" in Philo. The movie was a good one because you'll never know who's the real bad guy unless you have finshed the whole movie.

This afternoon, JC and I went to G-Com Supermarket to buy the things we needed for our outing tomorrow. Well, we need to budget the things we need because we might be short of our budget for tomorrow if ever we still have something important to buy. After our grocery we saw that we still have lotsa money left in our budget that will surely a big help for us as our outing goes on.

Chilled @ John's place for a while before going home to finalize important things for tomorrow's outing. Well, I have already packed my things so i will sleep na. I still need to wake up early tomorrow because we'll meet @ John's house @ 3am. Good night! Just can't wait for tomorrow! Batangas...Beach...!

July 29, 2004
Thursday

Today, we had our last quiz in Marketing and honestly i'm very sure that i won't pass it because i wasn't able to prepare for it. The bad thing is i also failed the first quiz so it means that i need to do better in my prelims exam.

This evening, I went to John-John's house to talk about our outing this coming Saturday. Finally, we had it all prepared. We will have our outing @ Munting Buhangin Beach Camp in Nasugbu, Batangas. Me, Valyn JC, John-John, Cha-Cha, Mico, Jopet and anne are the ones who's gonna come. Each person needs to pay 800 bucks per head so all in all we have 6400 bucks for our budget, quite big but we still don't know if it will be short or more than enough. Valyn will provide the transpo and Kuya Nards will drive for us. After the outing planning, Valyn invited us to their house. We had food trip their while watching Bruce Almighty. We went back again to John's place and I went home @ 2 am. It's like i don't have any classes tomorrow huh. Well, i have and i also have a quiz in Marketing. I'll sleep now. Nyt!

Wednesday is my PE day, in short my basketball day for weekdays. But today it was more than that. I arrived home at about 4pm from school and i was asked by mom to buy water from the water store. After that i passed by our clubhouse w/ John and saw some guys playing. We went down from the car and watched them play, John asked me if i would like to play. So I agreed and we played 4 games with those guys who are playing. We won the 4 games and the catch is we were only wearing slippers. Oh well, basketball is truly my passion that even if i'm just wearing slippers i'll still play. Too bad i'm small in height and it leaves basketball as my pastime/hobby not my future but at least i'm having fun! Haha!

JC went here a while ago and we talked about our plans and budget for our outing this coming Saturday. Until now, we are not sure who's gonna come or not but we're making it sure that we'll finalize it tomorrow. I'll go now, I have to make my project for Filipino and study for my quiz in Marketing. Ciao!

We had our first graded recitation in Pinoy this morning and honestly i'm not prepared. I was one of the last ones who were called and i was asked to answer another question because i wasn't able to answer completely the first question. My answer in the second question is also incomplete so i expected that i would get a low grade. But no, i was shocked to see that i was still able to get an 88 for it. Well, i think if prepared for it i would get a grade better than 88 but i didn't study and that's the consequence of it.

On Saturday our Kada will have an outing, so this afternoon i called up the office of Munting Buhangin Beach Resort Nasugbu, Batangas and asked their room rates. By the way, Munting Buhangin is the resort we went to when our balikbayan relatives were here a month ago. Well, their rates where not so bad, but still i need to consult my friends if their okay with it. I just hope they would agree so we could already plan for our outing budget before Friday.

It has been two years since i started driving and ever since hindi pa ako nasisiraan ng auto. But not today. We are on our way to SM Megamall when I saw the car's temperature getting hotter and could lead to overheating of the car. We were still at Cubao when it happened so we stopped by Petron Gate 5 for a while to have it checked. The mechanic told us that their had been a problem with the sensor of the auxiliary fan and the thermostat switch. So the mechanic placed a temporary solution to the car's problem to let us continue our trip. Oh, well at least na-experience ko na din masiraan and for sure mapagdadaanan ko pa ulit yan. I need to study car mechanix so that if masiraan ako sa gitna ng daan ay hindi ako mahirapan. Good luck sa akin at sana ay ganahan ako magbasa. Hehe.

It's has been already a tradition in our family that if one come's back from another country we will surely go to Duty Free. This time it's my Mom who is a balikbayan that's why we went to Duty Free a while ago. Well, nothing has chnaged since we last went there a month ago and still what you see in Duty Free can be bought in groceries here in the Metro, the difference is you pay what you buy in dollars not in peso. I think it's the reason why Duty Free has never been full of people. I'm so tired, I felt like i drived very far that my knees are aching. I'll sleep now, i still have a graded recitation in Pinoy tomorrow. Nyt!

Sunday

Well, to start of this last week of July is my UAAP Team OTW!

My UAAP Team OTW: THE ATENEO DE MANILA BLUE EAGLES

Ateneo is on a roll at the start of UAAP Season 67. As of today they are already 4-0 because they just won against UP a while ago. Their other victories are agianst DLSU, UE and UST. But the bad news for the team is that Larry Fonacier who is their leading scorer for this season, suffered an injury in his knee a while ago in their game aginst UP and was rushed to the hospital immediately. Doctors said that it's probably an ACL or MCL injury that could probably end Fonacier's season and even be the cause of an end to Ateneo's winning streak. But with Bugia, Tenorio, Intal, Membrebre and Del Rosario having also great seasons, ADMU fans are still hoping their team would continue fly high this Season 67 of UAAP.

July 24, 2004
Saturday

Since last year i have been planning to watch a game of UST in UAAP and because of a busy schedule i wasn't able to get a chance to watch. But not until today. Even if i couldn't find someone to watch w/ me i still watched a live game @ Araneta Colesium. The first game featured UST vs. FEU. It was given that UST will have a hard time to win over FEU and yes, they lost by 10+ points. Although they lost i still cheered for my school because i think they never gave up as they tried to crawl back from a big deficit. Second game was also a great one because it featured Adamson vs DLSU. Adamson is known to be a bad team before and has never won against DLSU in the past 8 seasons. But w/ the way Adamson played a while ago, it looks like that losing streak will come to an end. Indeed, it has come to an end. Adamson won against DLSU by 2 points. Although it's quite a small lead, for them a win is always a win. UAAP fans always look forward to teams like DLSU, ADMU and FEU as the teams to beat. But for this season, Adamson just might be included to that list. Adamson is a very unpredictable team and can considered as the darkhorse of UAAP Season 67!

This Saturday might be the best Saturday of the month! After i watched two good UAAP games this afternoon. Tonight, my mom will arrive from America. After 2 grueling months without my mom, she's back again! I miss my Mom so much that I was so excited to see her again. I don't care if she don't have any pasalubongs for me but the mere fact that she's back is already the best pasalubong for me! But you know, she still had pasalubongs for me but it was given by my ninang in America and it was my dream perfume...Clinique Happy for Men! I have been dreaming of this perfume for years already and now my dream has come to an end. Not only that, i was also given 4 big Gillete Deodorants that would save me half a year of buying Rexona! Haha! It's already 1 am and i still need to hear mass tomorrow. Nyt! What a great Saturday for me! Ciao!

Friday

My first 2 quizzes in Finance was all so good but not until today. I am very sure that i will fail our quiz in Finance a whie ago. I admit that I wasn't prepared because i didn't study. It's my fault and it's the price i need to pay. I'll just do better on the prelims exam. (Abay, dapat lang!)

When our barkada's having inuman we usually drink Red Horse and SMB Light, but not tonight. All of us chipped in for a different taste that will make us tipsy! For tonight, we had 3 bottles of Bubble Gum Lambanog w/ Sprite as chaser. Well, it's actually not our first time to drink Lambanog, it's just that we not used to it because it's kinda expensive. Well, we had fun and at least there's a change for today! Next week, Red Horse ulit yan pero sa Batangas naman kami iinom! Haha!

Went home @ 4:30 am...kinda late for Friday but early for Saturday!

This morning my group in Marketing reported about Business Markets. Actually, it is my first reporting this school year. The good thing about it was we reported well especially Ginx, Franco and Jona, who we consider the leader of our group. Although we haven't finish yet our reporting, I am quite confident that we will get a good grade in it. After our reporting, we had a quiz in History and i'm sure i'll fail it because i wasn't able to study that much last night. Oh well, I passed the first quiz and i'll just do better on the third. Well, it's been a long time since i chilled at Ison's point so I had the chance tonight to ge there and spent barely 2 hours w/ my kabarkada. I'll go now, i still need to study for my finance quiz tomorrow. Ciao.

I took basketball for my PE class this sem so I could still play basketball even on weekdays and if i don't have time on weekends. I expected a lot from this PE unfortunatelly our first few meetings wasn't that good because we did nothing but practice basketball skills and we never had a true game. But today my PE was different, what I expected from my PE class happened. We had our first true game. Although we had two games up to 2 and up to 3 respectively, I still enjoyed because we both won the games and i get to know how my teammates play. Next PE class, our Prof. promised us that we will have a longer game. I can't wait for our next PE class! I kinda nervous today because we will have our reporting in Marketing tomorrow and our group is cramming. Ciao!

July 20, 2004
Tuesday

A while ago, I ate lunch w/ RUTH, Des, Ginx and Jona @ BRB. This is my first time to eat in this canteen and it is also the first time this sem that i ate lunch w/ different people because i usually eat lunch w/ Jen, Kae, Pam, etc.

It's been quite sometime since i last played basketball. The weather's quite fine so I practiced shooting at our clubhouse. After playing, i chilled w/ my barkada at Biong's van. We tlaked about our plans for this weekend and the next weekend...Check in @ Shang Ri La this Saturday and Outing @ Batangas next Saturday! Two straight exciteing weekends!

"If i was the one who was loving you baby, the only tears you cry would be tears of joy..."

"Girl, I know you got hurt when you saw your former love. I wasn't able to show my true feelings and emotions to others but to tell you honestly I got hurt also. I know you still love that person and if you think i'm already over you, well I am not and i think will never be. I still love you girl and i will always love you! Sorry. But i am still hoping that you could give me a chance to prove myself...Please?..."

Monday

At last, after two failed quizzes in NatSci, i was able to pass the third. The best thing bout it was it helped pulled my quizzes total percentage in a passing grade.

This afternoon i accidentally met Monica in SM Megamall, she's a good friend of mine. It's been 4 months since we last met that is why I got excited upon seeing her. We strolled around the mall and i accompanied her as she shopped for a new shoes.

July 18, 2004
Sunday

Today's just an ordinary day for me. Nothings new but i need to study for my NatSci quiz tomorrow because i badly need to pass this quiz.

Saturday

This afternoon i was interviewed by FEAD. FEAD is the foundation that handles my scholarhsip. During the first sem last year, I was given a 3000 allowance. Unfortuantelly, during the 2nd sem I wasn't able to make the required grade. The person who interviewed me a while ago asked me if i would still like to continue the scholarship. I said yes and he expects me to have better grades. Well, I just hope i could make it again! Good luck to me!

*Starting this week, i will have my "Dippie's OTW (OTW stands for "of the week")". Dippie's OTW will feature different stuffs that i think made an impact on the week. OTW's can be a song, baller, car, artist, anything and everything under the sun! At the end of the month i will also have Dippie's OTM (OTM stands for "of the month"). You can also request for your OTW's and OTM's and give comments by messaging me in my tagboard. To start of:

Dippie's Song OTW is "Itsumo" by Dice and K-9:

Itsumo
Dice & K9

(Dice)
Juz' call me first born, you're my first love,
You're my 1st kiss from up above.
And I don't care if you don't give love back
Coz' n my heart is where your ass is at.
I love your eyes , your nose & your tender lips,
Wanna kiss your neck, your shoulders to your finger tips.
I go crazy when you shake those sexy hips.
Baby girl you're the 1 I can't resist.
You know I love you from the very start, I don't care if you break my heart.
I'm the man & I'm here for you, believe me coz' my love is true.

CHORUS
(Sashi)
Itsumo kokoro we hoshi itstuka
Dare katu mata koi nei utchitimu
Itsumo kokoro nei eiro itsumo
Anata dake no basho ga aru kara

(K9)
You wanna get down with k-n-i-n-e, make sure that's pure l-o-v-e
Never talk about the i-c-e coz' I only got my h-e-a-r-t for y-o-u
I can't pay the bills for dinner, I juz' give them my IOU
For sure, I'm not after f-u-c-k, got no b-a-d intentions don't wanna play girl,
Maybe we might spot a UFO, wait, that's not part of the rhyme juz' felt like sayin' so
You gotta know that I love from the start till f-o-r-e-v-e-r.

Repeat chorus

(Dice)
Baby girl be my first lady, be the mom of my first baby
You didn't like me when you first show me, I'll be gentle I'll do it slowly.

(K9)
Girl, I think it's better if you was with me, I got doe coz' I juz' won the spelling bee
For you, I got all the t-i-m-e Ask mommies to pass but I'm not so sure
Juz' doin' my on thing, shits more expensive than your fancy gold rings,
I don't mean dissin' coz' I gots to go there, mommies don't care,
All for them ladies, even chicks with nose rings.

This morning we had our recollection at the Medicine Auditorium. Well, we had the usual activities in a recollection, a talk, an action song, a moment of silence and reflection, the celebration of the eucharicst and the best part the sacrament of reconciliation. For me, it's the best part because I get to say sorry for my sins and at the same time ask forgiveness from God. I always see to it that i must go to confession once a month that is why i am so excited a while ago because i wasn't able to receive it the past 2 months. After the recollection, i felt better because i have reflect, relax and recollect.

Lunch w/ my 2ca1 barkada @ Cafe Dapits, slept from 4pm to 6pm wake up w/out nothing to do! Wow, what a boring Friday night!

*Made some revisions on my blogsite. Hope you were able to notice it! Thanks!

No Classes for today but i still have an allowance because i told my dad that we have classes in the afternoon. Left the house @ about 12 in the afternoon. Went to Providence Bldg. in Leon Guinto, Manila w/ classmates to sing @ Mama V's Videoke Bar! Well, we had fun, singing, dancing and drinking! Went home @ about 5pm, and for the first time in my whole life i was able to ride the LRT 1! Wow, a big accomplishment for me! Haha!

It's or recollection tomorrow so i'll sleep already. I think i need to prepare myself for this activity. Good Night! Ciao!

Wednesday

Got quiz results in NatSci and Finance. Well, just what i expected in NatSci i failed but in Finance i got a 93% far more better than the first!

Today will be the last regular class day for the week because tomorrow will be no classes and on Friday we will have our recollection. But it seems like today wasn't regular already because there were no tiring activities for the day and we didn't have PE classes as well.

No assignments for tomorrow, the best thing to do on a "workless" day...Sleep! After all i slept late for the past few days. Night! Ciao!

Tuesday

A new lesson in Computer, first quiz in Marketing, Pinoy prof is absent again but left an activity for us to do and a boring History discussion as always. This was the first and last sessions for these subjects this week because our classes are suspended on Thursday because of a Faculty thingy.

Just thiniking if we have an assignment for tomorrow? Hmmm. I thin we don't have any and if there is i'm quite lazy to do it. It's a little bit late already, i'll sleep na. Good Night!

Usually every sem, there is one or two subjects that i always feel that i'll fail. This sem, i thought i could get rid of it. But with my performance in our NatSci quiz a while ago, for sure this is the subject that is on the verge of failure and the subject were I need to focus more and make up for failed quizzes. I have already failed the first and now the second. I don't know how many more quizzes are we gonna take up but for sure I need to prepare for it and most of all pass it. After NatSci we had a new lesson in Finance, a reporting in Ethics and a difficult activity in English.

Yes! There are only two days left for this week because on Thursday, there will be a faculty meeting while on Friday we will have our recollection. I'll go now, i still need to edit my webpage and study for Marketing. Ciao!

By the way, today is the premiere telecast of two new shows in ABS-CBN. The first one is SCQ Reload (before TV Patrol) and Hiram (before It Might be You).

This afternoon, me and my classmates watched the play "Windang" at La Consolacion College (For the first time, i already saw San Beda College, CEU and College of the Holy Spirit). It is our History prof who is also there to watch was the one who required us to watch the play. The whole play is about drugs and it's effects. Overall, the play is quite short but the meaning was expressed well. Last message for this part of my blog: SAY NO TO DRUGS!

It was also a great day for UAAP fans because the main game scheduled for today is ADMU vs. DLSU. Ha, it was a great game with DLSU leading all the way until the late part of the 4th quarter were ADMU had a big run and eventually win it by 3 points. The first game was also a come from behind win by UST against NU. So, this just shows that my school is on the right track as they start the UAAP Season 67! Go USTe!

Today is the last day of our COM-ACH team building seminar, we had again a new set of activities that is mainly about the objectives of COM-ACH and my commitment to the org. So now after i have attended the 3 day team building seminar, i could proudly say that i am a part of the AB COM-ACH Organization.

Tonight was the first performance of the Sounds Fishy band @ Dencio's Banawe. It is also our first night out with Valyn after her arrival last Thursday. The perfromance was good and we had lots of fun. We ate alot and drank alot that lead us to pay alot. The total of all the food and drinks we ordered was a whooping 2837.30 bucks. Usually, we never reach a price as high as that especially when we do it in someone's place but anyways we don't usually go on a night out so i think the 2900 bucks that we paid is quite worth it. The best part of it, i went home drunk (5 bottles of Red Horse? Hmmm. That's enough!) I'll sleep na! Nyt! Hic! I mean Mornin! Hic!

***Would you believe that we were able to fit 9 persons, (3 in the front, 4 at the back and guess where the other two seated or should i say lied down?) in a Toyota Rav4 just to be able to go to Starbucks Tomas Morato and go home safely from Dencio's Banawe.

Friday

Quiz in Finance and i'm not sure if i'll pass it. English prof is out so we were dismissed early. Went to Sala w/ Jen, Pam, Marvie, Abee, Badet and Grace to watch the movie "Cold Creek Manor." After watching, I went to the 2nd day of the team building seminar of COM-ACH w/ Ruth, Jen, Des, Badet and Grace. Today's team building was more serious than the first we had last Wednesday because there was an invited speaker who taught us how to make a project feasibilty. But there were still fun activities that made it more enjoying. Hmmm. 2 days down, 1 day to go and that's tomorrow. I'll probably come so i could proudly say that i am a part of the AB COM-ACH Organization.

Tonight also is the first inuman @ Ison's Pt. w/ our balikbayan kabarkada Valyn! It's been months since the last time i drank Empie w/ Coke as chaser and for tonight that's what we have. So, simulan na ang inuman!

This morning, Ate Merlyn told me that I don't have anything to eat for lunch, so after class, I went to Cafe Dapits to eat lunch w/ my classmates. While eating, there is this guy who came down from the 2nd floor that caught my attention and remembered someone. When he passed by my back, i looked at him again and tried to call his name...

Dipa: Mickoy!?
Mickoy: Kuya Jorel?!
Dipa: Oi!
Mickoy: Pinsan!

Ha! It's Mickoy, one of my closest 2nd degree cousins. We last saw each other 2 years ago that is why I got so excited upon seeing him. I didn't know that he was 1st year Nursing student at UST. I miss this cousin of mine, our parties and our trippings so before i went home that afternoon, I joined him @ Cafe Dapits 2nd floor w/ his friend Niki who is actually the girlfriend of my neighbor Angelo Torres. Wow, you see how our world is so small?!

Tonight is the arrival of my kabarkada Valyn from America. I miss this girl so much, I can't wait to see her and I hope that would be tonight. Welcome back VALYN!

Quiz in Finance tomorrow and deadline of edited paper in English, need to work now! Ciao!

Our english prof returned the paper that we submitted last friday and then when i saw the remarks of my prof i just proved to myself that i am a bad writer. I just hope it would not affect so much w/ my blog-writing.

After PE, 2 of my classmates and I went to the COM-ACH team building part 1. COM-ACH is the only organization i joined this year. I did not join any org last year because i felt like i am so busy during my first year because of ROTC and some other things. But now i think i am ready to join an org so i did not hesitate to join one. There are so many orgs in AB but COM-ACH is the only org that caught my attention and since first year i promised myself that i would join this org. So now i am proud to say that i am a bonafide member of AB COM-ACH! Going back to the team building that we had a while ago, it was fun with activities and games that helped me to make new friends. Well, it's just the start of a 3 part team building. But with the kind of team building that we had a while ago, for sure i wouldn't hesitate to attend the remaining two. This is my only org so i would surely be an active member of it. I think these org will help me a lot to reach out to other people.

This might be the most tiring day of the way of week for me!

Tuesday

HTML practical test in computer, discussion in Marketing, Filipino professor is back then started to have a lecture and the last for the day, we finished Ghengis Khan movie in History. I think this the first hectic Tuesday class 2CA1 had.

Bad trip! My bathroom's sink is clogged! I don't know how it happened but it's kinda weird because my dad and i tried all the possible soulutions to fix it but we couldn't. So i think we need to call on the The Super Mario bros. for help.

Bad trip again! The transpo i told my classmates for our Tagayatay trip is not available because for so many reasons. The problem is my classmates relied on me so much for our transpo, but then i felt like i failed them or worst i frustrated them. i hope this thing wouldn't start a big conflict w/ me and my classmates. Jen, Pam, Marvie, Badet, Abee, Pat, Rej and the others who is involved in this supposed to be Tagaytay trip I AM SO SORRY! Hope you could understand me guys. I'll make up for this bad thing that happened. Sorry again.

Monday

NatSci prof was absent, Finance prof introduced us to a new lesson, Philo was boring as usual and finally English was lively but difficult.

Went home very tired, after eating lunch...I slept from 1pm to 4:30pm. It's quite long for a weekday afternoon nap that is why for sure i will have a hard time sleeping tonight.

Oh I forgot to tell you guys that the Camille i am referring to was a graduate of School of the Holy Sprit QC. I can't believe that she's a batchmate and schoolmates of most of my friends from that school. That is why if I get to know her (hopefully soon) i would probably ask her some of my friends who came from her school. I just can't wait to get to know this girl.

There's this series of questions in the survey i got from my Friendster's bulletin board that asked:

Question #5. sino ang nag-iisang babae/lalaki s buhay mo?
- si ----

Question #7. sino crush mo?
- si ruth! kahit ilang beses itanong sa kn ito ay hindi magbabago ang sagot ko!

Question #8. sino love mo?
- si ----!

Question#9. sino crush ng crush mo?
- si ruth din!

Question#10. sino luv na luv mo?
- si ---- din! wala ng iba!

You see, i just can't get over her! So for those who would ask me the same questions, well you already know the answer. By the way, do you have any idea who's this "----" i am referring to? Ciao!

This morning my choir sang for the 10am mass here in our subdivision.

We also went to SM Super Sale Club to buy some groceries.

This afternoon we visited my ninong in their old house at project 6. This ninong of mine have ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease. Sounds unfamiliar? This is the same thing that happen to Morrie in the book "Tuesday's w/ Morrie." As far as i know until now, no cure has been found for this ALS. My ninong had this 3-4 years ago and since then it didn't improve but it gets worst. But my ninong is strong, he still tries to do normal things that a healthy person does. He can still text and use the computer. He even was able to write a book that was published. Well, i won't mention his weakness anymore because i found no weakness in him. Before when he was still a doctor, he was one of the best in his field and is also a know it all person. You could ask him anything under the sun. Actually until now you could still ask him but it won't be easy to understand him because his voice was also affected by the effects of ALS. At first, if you will see my ninong you will have that idea that he's weak but no, he's normal and he's strong and he's my ninong! Please include my ninong in your prayers. Thanks! Oh, by the way, there will be a fund raising concert for him @ the St. Paul's College QC auditorium this coming August 20, 2004. I'll just update you for more info.

I was in the house the whole day not until my aunt invited me:

Aunt: May gimik ka tonight?
Me: Wala naman.
Aunt: Gusto mo maki-gimik?
Me: Saan?
Aunt: Sa Makati. Habang nanonood ako ng concert ni Martin Nievera sa On-Stage manood muna kayo ni RR(my cousin) ng sine.
Me: Sure!

Hmmmm...we'll watch a movie tonight? What's the best movie to watch? Of course it's SPIDER MAN 2! Okay, i'll take a bath now!

First, my cousin and i checked out the Greenbelt 4 cinema w/c shows Spider Man 2 in all of it's theatres. The problem is the price is 150 bucks and the only available screening was 1am. So why waste money and time? We then went to Glorietta 1 where Spider Man 2 is shown in 2 of its 3 cinemas and the best part of it? The ticket price is just 75 bucks and there are so many seats available that my cousin and i was able to seat at the topmost center of the cinema and might be the best seats of a theatre! There might be a difference with the chairs and stuffs inside the cinema of Glorietta and Greenbelt but you still get to watch the same movie. And oh, one similarity i think there is between Glorietta and Greenbelt is the cupholder in the cinema chairs. Plus the fact that both of them is in Ayala Center! Haha!

The Spider Man 2 movie was one damn good movie! It's a whole lot better than the part 1. The story, the effects, the cinematography and everything was done fabulously! Truly a box-office hit! "Spider Man, Spider Man!" By the way, have you seen Spider Man riding an elevator? Hmmm...well watch the movie then!

Today we had the CASA(Communication Arts Students' Association) general assembly @ the Med Audi. For the first time after a year in Communication Arts i was able to know the history of my course. Actually, CASA is celebrating it's 30th year and that is why there are a lot of things to watch out this coming year from CASA! I also learned that my course has the most number students in AB and even in the whole UST. It is also the first time this year that i ushered a Freshmen CA section. At first i was quite shy but the students in 1CA3 welcomed and respected me. Though there are some who is naughty, well it's a part of a class and we can do nothing about it anymore. I hope i will still get to be with this section and usher them again for the upcoming CASA events. I also hope that i get to be with the other CA sections whom i know is as "bibbo" as me!

You all know that i am a basketball fanatic. So after the general assembly i went to the UST gym to watch the UST Tigers play an exhibition game against UST all-stars w/c paraded former UST greats such as Dennis Espino, Rey Evangelista, Gerard Francisco and Pido Jarencio. I just imagined how powerful was the UST Tigers then unlike now that they lack the height and the experience. No wonder the old UST Tigers was able to win 4 straight championships during the 90's. But, believe it or not the UST tigers just lost 5 points to the all-stars that showed their competitiveness. Well, in UAAP it's a whole new ballgame but still i belive that UST Tigers will roar and soar to the final four! Good luck Tigers!

During the night, i went to Eastwood with 2CA1 barkada. Jack's Loft, 3 beers, and chicken fingers. What a complete and tiring Friday. Got home @ 1am. I'll sleep na!

It's time...today my relatives from America will go home. It's very sad to think that they will already leave. They need to and that's the way it should be. Well, i don't want to be so emotional here but the 3 weeks they stayed here in Manila was great. We were the ones who brought them to the airport and lucky enough we get to be with them for their last an hour and a half here in Manila. Well, just want to say Thank You to them for everything, the moments and the pasalubongs! Happy Trip!

Typhoon "Igme" strikes today, grade school classes...suspended.

Today is also the day of inaguration for the 14th President of the Philippines, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and her Vice President Noli de Castro. I am already a voter and honestly if i had the chance to vote last May, i would surely vote GMA because from the presidentiables, she might be the best and that is why majority of the Pinoys voted for her that is why she won and i just hope she'll do her best for our country. Congrats GMA!

Our balikbayan relatives had their despedida party tonight because they'll be leaving tomorow. Hmmm...as i have said days ago, i'll surely miss them. But most of all is i need to thank them a lot! Especially my auntie and uncle who made it possible for us to enjoy their 3 week stay here!

Tuesday

We had a Holy Mass today @ the UST Chapel. It is the first time that i celebrated a mass w/ my section. Last year we never had the chance to attend a mass altogether. After the mass, we had our fist quiz in History. Seems hard but i think the things i studies are enough to have a high score.

Hmmm...the rains and the winds are quite strong today. The typhoon "Igme" is now striking Metro Manila! But please don't suspend classes tomorrow, it's PE day! In short basketball day! Hehe! Ciao!

Got quiz results from different subjects. First was NatSci, 16/40 equivalent to 70%. Plan of action: bumawi sa quiz #2! Next result was Finance, 26/52 equivalent to 75% Hmmm...better than NatSci but still needs to do better on the second quiz.

Had a surprise quiz in English...got a 16/20 score. Well, i think i just need to keep up to good work and even do better! Remember it's English, it's my weakness! Haha!

After class, CA Batch 2007 batch picture @ Colayco Park. 5 formal shots, 4 wacky shots. I'll order it all because these are great memories of my batch!

Remember the 2ca4 girl i was telling a week ago. Her name was Camille. Damn, i think i have to know this girl! Seeing her makes me go crazy! She's so pretty!

Quiz in Computer and History tomorrow...study time!

It's a nice feeling when you have relatives from America that goes back here for a vacation. Since my relatives from America came back here last June 13th, we did nothing but to eat in good restaurants like Saisaki and Kamayan and it's always their treat. Hmmmm. Tonight we are off again to Sakesan, a Japanese restaurant in Megamall. Actually it's not only the restaurants, the outings and the pasalubongs that is important. I think their presence here in our house is the best part of it because it's not always that they go back here and then when they leave it's back to normal again here in our house.

They are about to leave on the 1st of July and i wish i could spend more time with them during their last few days here in Manila. Damn, i will surely miss them!

Woke up @ 5am...Off to Nasugbu, Batangas. Beach in June?! Isn't it too late? Summer's finish, rains are already falling but i don't mind i'll still go and it's just one whole day why not grab the opportunity?!.

Wave 89.1 plays good music. The Wave Chips tastes good but a little bit salty. But there is one Wave that sounds like good music to your ear and tastes salty too...It's the beach waves. Waves in Nasugbu, Batangas are quite strong because of winds but because of low-tide it was not deep. Actually it was the waves who made our swim more fun and exciting!

The best part of an outing...Lunch! Hmmm....ihaw-ihaw...Liempo, pusit and fish! Yum yum most especially w/ beer! Got 4 servings of rice, well i'm not that hungry! Burp! I'm full!

Stop overs @ Tagaytay...Damn it's cold out there! Hope our Tagaytay trip w/ 2ca1 friends will push through!

I'll sleep...I'm tired! Zzzzzzzz....

It's rainy outside...cold and windy...got classes but got no jacket! Hope i won't be wet... Friday...Quiapo Day, who said it would be easy riding a bus even if i was quite early? Huh! I was standing in the bus from Sandiganbayan to UST...Had a quiz in Philo, don't know if my answers are correct, an activity in English i wasn't able to follow instructions. Did nothing in NatSci and Finance prof was absent...

Spent 80 bucks at Frio Mixx w/ classmates...As vea said a while ago "kaya hindi ako makaipon, peer pressure" Vea...you have a point there! Don't worry next time let's just watch them eating.

2pm nothing to do...Again JC to the rescue..."Pare tus tayo sa Panna! Wala ako magawa!"

Basketball from 4pm-8pm...Obviously i'm tired...I'll sleep na...Ala eh, mag-Batangas pa kami bukas eh! Nyt!

Help...help...help...help me get over her! If she's tired, then i don't want to be tired waiting if there would never be a chance! Just want to say "I still LOVE her!"

MALIGAYANG BATI SA IYO MONICA! 17 ka na!

Dahil walang magawa ay minabuti ko na tumambay na lamang sa Coffee Shop ngayong hapon kasama ang aking mga kabarkada.

Gumagabi na...balik na naman sa realidad bukas sapagkat may pasok na naman....Ako ay matutulog na...Magandang gabi sa inyo!

Dad sometime gets mad
Dad sometime gets bad
Dad is always a helping hand
And my Dad is the best dad!
Love you Papa!

After 4 months of waiting........(drums rolling)

I've got my Nokia 3200 na! Colored, camera, polyphonic, and everything...everything that a 5110 doesn't have. But i will never give up my 5110, because i had great moments w/ this phone and i still value it as much as i value my new phone!

And because it's Happy Father's Sunday....We had dinner @ Kamayan West Ave. i ordered Ultimate Buffet (Kamayan, Saisaki and Dads!) FilJapAM for dinner...am full! burp!

A great dad, a new cellphone, an ultimate buffet....all for free...wOw, what a Sunday!

Btw...asked Gelo bout the pretty girl i mentioned last thursday. Camille's the name?! Well, i think i need to show Gelo first to be sure.

I was walking in the overpass w/ my classmates when i saw this girl at our back. Damn, she's so pretty! Were both waiting for an FX and the best thing is we rode the same FX! I'll say it again...She's so pretty! Oh, btw she is also a 2nd yr. CA student. That means she's my batchmate...Hmmmm...For sure she's form 2CA4 and that means i need to consult my friends in that section...Gelo? Pow?....Hehe! We went to G4 this afternoon and there's this newly-opened bread shop named Bread Talk. I bought this bread for 54 bucks w/ bacon and cheese inside...the catch is, it was quite big for it's price. The bread's name was "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" Hmmmm...tastes like a movie!

This morning i had my first late in this schoolyear. My first class today is 7am and i arrived at 7:20am because of the pesky traffic in España. I ate lunch @ Jollibee Asturias w/ Jen, Pam, Abee, Marvie, Kae and Badet. Had my first PE class today. I enrolled for Basketball (Co-ed) for my PE this sem. I have the same PE w/ Kae, Jen and Abee. Usually my route during school days is Filinvest 1-UST and UST-Filinvest 1. Not today, maybe because of "puyat" and fatigue i fell asleep in the FX i was riding going home. What's funny about it was when i woke up, i was in Fairview Central Mall w/c is quite far from Sandiganbyan where i must really go down. Good thing the driver didn't ask for 5 more pesos. So i just rode a jeep going back to Sandiganbayan. Well, i'll sleep early today. Nyt!

For the first time, our section was able to have our computer lecture in the AB Computer Lab. First discussion in History was soooo boring. Got home at about 2:00 pm and to be honest, it was so frickin hot and tiring going home! Talked to Andrea and i'm about to meet her tomorrow, hopefully! I miss this gal already! But it's my BES that i miss so much! Can't wait for my 1st PE class tomorrow, Basketball pare! Ubos na English ko!

Monday

Our Nat Sci prof. was not around today and our Finance prof. was late, so am I w/ Vea, Grace and Martin. Watched "American Wedding" DVD that i found beside my PC. The movie was so funny especially the wholesome (ehem...) part of it! Haha! On the afternoon, i drove Tita Nene, Jun, Jen, Ron, Tita Gina and Nina going to SM Fairview. Talked to Hannah for a while. Gosh...i'm so tired after 2 days of long driving and sleeping late. I think i need to go to bed early today. Oh, btw my Ninong Manny (Tita Nene's husband) arrived today from US.

Sunday

Tita Nene and my cousins Jun-Jun and Jen-Jen arrived this morning from America. Me, Papa, Tita Gina, RR, Kuya Al and Tito Pong were the one who fetched them from the airport. It's been 7 years since i last saw my cousins and oh, living in America really makes you tall because my cousin Jun who is a year younger than me is already 6'2". But that is not actually a big prob for me because the only thing that bothers me is will i able to talk to them in straight english? Our lunch was like a reunion because most of my mom's siblings were there, except for my mom of course (awwww...I miss my mom!). On the evening, we went to Duty Free. Well, it frustrates me because what is being sold in Duty Free are being sold(even cheaper) also in the malls in Metro Manila. So we just bought food, chocolates to be specific. I was the one who drove going to Duty Free and it was very tiring. From Duty Free we ate dinner at Max's Quezon Ave. Arrived here in the house at 11pm and i'm so tired and most of all sleepy! I'll go to bed na! Nyt!

Happy Birthday Cha-Cha! I had my haircut this morning and i decided to have it semi-bald again (0) so i will not have a hard time combing and thinking of a hairstyle. Just stayed here in the house the whole day and on the evening i attended the 7pm Anticipated Sunday Mass. From the church, i immediately proceeded to Cha-Cha's birthday party @ their house. Most of her visitors were from F1 and SHS people! Sounds Fishy band performed in the party as well. Need to go home quite early because we'll fetch Tita Nene tomorrow morning @ the airport, so i got home @ 3:30 am. Isn't it quite early, early for tomorrow? Haha! Oh, btw, today we celebrate Phiippine's Independence Day!

Store to buy black pants and National Bookstore to buy some school materials. I ate merienda @ Triple V and we left Megamall @ about 6:30 pm. Talked to Vea! Guys, there's this song by Gloc-9 that i like so much. It's titled "Simpleng Tao." It's kinda baduy but the lyrics nice, here how it goes:

Simpleng Tao
Gloc-9

Habang tumutunog ang gitara sa 'kin, makinig ka sana
Dumungaw ka sa bintana na parang isang harana
Sa awit na aking i-sinulat ko kagabi
'Wag sanang magmadali at 'wag kang mag-atubili dahil...

Kahit na wala akong pera
Kahit na butas aking bulsa
Kahit pa maong ko'y kupas na
At kahit na marami d'yang iba

Ganito man ako (maniwala ka sana sa akin)
Simpleng tao (na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Ang maipagyayabang ko lang sa 'yo (my love)

Chorus:
Pag-ibig ko sa 'yo na 'di magbabago
At kahit na anong bagyo, ika'y masusundo
Ganito lang ako (maniwala ka sana sa akin)
Simpleng tao (na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Na umaasa hanggang ngayon

Hindi mo namang kailangan ang sagutin
Ang aking hinihiling
Nais na maparating
Na 'di na muli pang dadaloy ang luha
Pupunasan nang kusa
'Di kailanagng manghula
Kahit pamasahe lang ang palagi kong dala
Upang makasama ka
Kapag nakikita ka
Lagi kang aalalayan kahit ano man ang 'yong
Mga ibinubulong
Malalim pa sa balon
Ito lamang ang...

Chorus

Kay Spider-Man o kay Batman
Kay Superman o Wolverine
Kahit 'di maintindihan
Baka sakaling pansinin

Ganito lang ako (maniwala ka sana sa akin)
Simpleng tao (na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Ang maipagyayabang ko lang sa 'yo (my love)

(Pag-ibig) Ko sa 'yo, ito'y totoo
Wala nang iba, ikaw at ako
Lang ang nasa isip at panaginip
'Pag nakikita ka, sasabihin ko'y

Nawawala, ikaw na nga
Ang dahilan kung bakit nasulat ko ang tulang
Kahit kanino ay aking maipagyayabang
Minamahal kita subalit tanggapin mo sana kahit...

Ganito lang ako (maniwala ka sana sa akin)
Simpleng tao (na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Ang maipagyayabang ko lang sa 'yo (my love)

Chorus:
Pag-ibig ko sa 'yo na 'di magbabago
At kahit na anong bagyo, ika'y masusundo
Ganito lang ako (maniwala ka sana sa akin)
Simpleng tao (na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Ang maipagyayabang ko lang sa 'yo

Pag-ibig ko sa 'yo na 'di magbabago
At kahit na anong bagyo, ika'y masusundo
Ganito lang ako (maniwala ka sana sa akin)
Simpleng tao (na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Na umaasa hanggang ngayon sa pag-ibig mo

Sa pag-ibig mo
Sa pag-ibig mo
(Maniwala ka sana sa akin)
(Na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Sa pag-ibig mo
(Maniwala ka sana sa akin)
(Na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Sa pag-ibig mo
(Maniwala ka sana sa akin)
(Na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)
Sa pag-ibig mo
(Maniwala ka sana sa akin)
(Na ikaw ang lagi kong dalangin)

Bye Mama! =(

*It was one sad day for the whole family.. Woke up very early (5:30am) to bring Mama to the airport because her flight is scheduled at 9am.. On the way to the airport, the feeling was normal. It's like we're not going to the airport and Mama was not leaving.. But when we were about to enter NAIA, there was silence inside our van.. The last thing my Mama told me was "Jok, good luck sa auditions mo.." After my Mama said that, i was so touched because it was she who pushed me to join the auditions even if i hesitate to. When we were there already at the boarding area, my Mama wants us to stay for a while and wait for her to go inside but unfortunatelly we couldn't because the drop off time allowed is only two minutes. So what we did was we went down from the van. And from that moment on, i couldn't help it but to cry. I was bursting into tears while i embrace my Mama and the only thing i could say is "Bye Mama, ingat po kayo" because my hard cry. I will surely miss my Mama. From the time she retired from her job, i used to see her the whole day and look for her when i arrive from school. Now, is a different scenario because from the time i wake up she's not there. All these and more are the things i would miss a lot! I LOVE YOU MAMA! *Ate breakfast at McDonalds St. Francis Square w/ Papa, Niki and Nina. *Played Basketball @ Claret w/ former batchmates. *Went to village w/ Papa.

Best game?!

*Cleaned Toyota Lite-Ace and Kia Pride. *Papa came back from Fontana. *Inter-village game versus Don Enrique, which bested us last year by only 2 points. And today we seek revenge! JC and I arrived @ Tivoli Royale Country Club @ exactly 5pm, the scheduled time of our game. We saw that our opponents were complete and are already having their round-robin. Just as the game started and game buzzer sounded, our teammates Ramez, Thirdy, JV and Mico arrived. They immediately dressed up for the game but we still don't have a coach yet. We started off the game with a 9-2 blitz just as our coach arrive and since that moment, our opponents wasn't able to make the score close. The closest they were able to attain was only two points and with a blink of an eye it went up again to as much as 21 points. Haha. The final score of our game was 57-39. We won the game minus the services of Gian Odejar (Capt. Ball and Leading Scorer), John-John Ison (One of our leading scorers), Ricahrd Fran and Miko Abello (Two of our most consistent rebounders.) There were only 8 players who were dressed to play (including me) and all of us were able to play and gave big important contributions to the team. Nobody in our team went home scoreless. My game stats were 16 points, so far the best game of my AQCHAI Inter-village career and also, the best game our team played this year. As of today, out of 10 teams in our division (Juniors) in AQCHAI Inter-Village Tournament, we are 3rd in the standings with a 3-2 record, just behind Villa Firenze, NCE I, Embassy Terraces and North Fairview. Our next game will be against Ayala Heights on Thurday, April 22, 5pm @ Tivoli Royale Country Club. *McDo Commonwealth w/ F1 Kada. *Chill @ Ison's Point.

*Chill and ate lunch @ Carlo Liban's house! *Collected payments for Village Sportsfest uniform. *Went to Enchanted Kingdom w/ Mama, Nina, Tita Gina, Tito Dong, RR, Ron-Ron, Kuya Ton and Tin-Tin! Well, nothing's new in Enchanted. Still the same old rides and the same old ambiance but there were so many people! The average time of lining up before you can ride is about 20 minutes sometime's longer pa kaya Log Jam, Space Shuttle, Rialto, Rio Grande at Wheel of Fate lang yung nasakyan namin (Buti na lang libre lang yung ticket! Haha!). Nakakapagod pumila! Noong huli kong punta dun, yung 20 minutes, 3-4 na rides na yung nasakyan ko. Haha. *Today marks also the first time that i was able to drive down the South Luzon Expressway because i was the one who drove going home from Sta. Rosa to Eastwood and then Eastwood to Filinvest 1. *Ate dinner @ McDo Eastwood.

A win is a win! Filinvest 1(36) vs. NCE I(35)

*Cleaned Lite-Ace. *Chill @ Carlo Liban's place! *Watched Midgets Inter-village game, Filinvest 1 (35) vs. Northview I (64). *Inter-village game vs. NCE I. With 6.6 seconds remaining in the final quarter and with the score tied @ 34-all, Gian Odejar of Filinvest I fouled Mangiliman of NCE I. Due to the penalty situation of Filinvest I, Mangiliman of NCE I are awarded two free throws. Mangiliman shoots the first pressured packed free throw but misses the second and the rebound was grabbed by Richard Fran of Filinvest 1. Fran passed the ball immediately to Odejar w/ time winding down. Odejar brings down the ball quickly, looks for an open teammate and sees John-John Ison running down on the left wing. Odejar passes the ball quickly to the running Ison and with 3 seconds left in the game clock, Ison takes-off for a lefty lay-up with two NCE I players trying to stop him. But with full confidence on his lefty lay-up, Ison's lay-up shoots just as the time expires and as the buzzer sounds! The whole Filinvest I bench (including me) and crowd jumped with so much joy as our team won the game with a final score of 36-35. Even though we just won by a point, always remember, "A win is always a win!" My stats for the game: 2 points (1/3 from the field), 2 rebounds, 2 steals and again a small wound. Hehe. Oh, I also got a technical foul for the second straight game. Bad boy! Hehe! Also, for the first time in after so many years, our Juniors team won the first two games! Well, we still have more games to come, so that means we have nothing to be complacent of. Our next game will be on Friday, April 16, 6pm vs. the versatile Villa Firenze. *Ate @ McDo C'wealth w/ F1 peeps!

St. Anthony, Pray for us! & Linggo ng Palaspas!

A call from Cha at about 7:30am woke me up and asking me to go at John-John's house dun daw kami mag-breakfast. So i immediately wash my face, gargled and proceed to John's house. I went home at 9am and took a rest for a while before taking a bath. We didn't have any quizzes for today but we were bombarded with a lot of assignments especially in Socio. After class, we watched an AA presentation entitled "St. Anthony, Pray for us! & Linggo ng Palaspas!" at the Rizal Con. The play was so good! Ang galing ni Mina at ni Fatso umarte! Award winning! Congrats! Got home at about 7pm and after eating dinner i felt so tired so when i lied down in my bed nakatulog na ako. Ciao!
Well, i still feel bothered because i think umiiwas sa akin si HURT. Something is bothering her and i want to help. I'm just concerned and i just don't want to see her sad:
Dipa:Ey, galit ka ba sa akin?
HURT: umiiling (in short hindi)
Dipa: sure ka?
HURT: nodding (in short oo)
Dipa: ok ka lang?
HURT: umiiling (in short hindi)
HURT, sorry kung makulit ako ah...I just miss YOU!

February 26, 2004
Iniiwasan na, napilayan pa!

Woke up 3am and started doing my novel review for Lit. I finished doing it at about 9am. So in short puyat na naman ako. Hai. In school, we had a quiz in Lit and Theo. Bad trip, hindi pa pala ngayon ang deadline ng Lit. nagpuyat pa ako! Anyways before going home something wrong happen. I was about to go home with HURT but biglang nagbago ang ihip ng hangin. Sabi niya hindi na raw siya sabay. Tapos parang umiiwas siya sa kin. Thinking na sinusundan ko siya on her way out, lumihis siya ng way papuntang Noval. Tuloy, i felt like i did something wrong to her today. I immediately texted her and said: "if i did something wrong today, i'm so sorry." but then she didn't replied. So i felt bothered na tapos i texted Franco asking him what should i do. Well, franco concluded that baka she's making iwas nga. Well, it may be a bad idea to think but it's true. That's what she's doing. Making iwas! Sa lahat ng ayoko mangyari eh yung magkakaiwasan kami. Hindi ko yun kakayanin. So i texted her again asking her if she's mad at me or something, well she's not but she's feeling bad. So i asked if i could do something to help but she did not replied. Well, i think she just needs some space. I'll just ask her again tomorrow. Got home at about 8pm and after eating dinner i followed my Tito Resty at Block1 to play basketball. Unfortunatelly, i stepped on someones foot while grabbing a rebound kaya ayon, na-sprain ako. Well, still managed to play but when i got home and removed my shoes, i felt the pain. Ouch! Break muna sa basketball! Ciao!

ASH WEDNESDAY & Happy 18th anniversary EDSA!

No classes for today because it is the 18th anniversary of EDSA. Did nothing at home today even if i had no classes. Tita LC had lunch here at our house and then i played basketball for a while. At night, i attended the Holy Mass for Ash Wednesday. Well, Ash Wednesday means i must Fast and Abstain, so no meat for today. That's all for my ASH WEDNESDAY! Ciao!

"Ikaw lang at wala ng iba"

It was 1am, while doing my part for our research paper, biglang may nag miss call. Si HURT! Well, i miss called her also and and texted her:
Dipa: oi, bakit gising ka pa? may pasok ka 2mrw ah.
HURT: ndi pa ako inaantok.
The rest of our conversation was history. Basta we had a great conversation sa text kaya biglang dumami at bumilis ang words per minute ko. Hehe. Hanggang bago ako matulog ng mga 2am ay ka-text ko siya. Kaya naman ang sarap at ang himbing ng tulog ko. Woke up with smile. Arrived at school, still with a smile. I was excused for my first 3 classes because all ROTC cadets has a program to attend to. Even though i was so tired with our training im still smiling. Basta, there was a moment today na hindi ko makakalimutan! Know why? "Ikaw lang at wala ng iba." If you're wondering what it means. Just ask me personally. Hirap mag-kuwento dito sa blog. Hehe. Went home with HURT and that means i went home still smiling! In short, the whole day i was smiling (baliw ko noh?!) Hehe. Thanks Franco, Martin, Vea and the whole 1ca1 class for your support! Ciao! Happy Birthday Kuya Ton! No classes tomorrow!

Wave 89.1

This morning i accompanied my good friend Ingrid to Wave 89.1 because she will apply for her OJT this coming summer. Fortunatelly, she was given the job earlier than we expected. Actually she will start na nga tomorrow. Good luck Ingrid! I arrived at UST at exactly 11am just in time for my first class w/c is Eco. In CA, we had again a surprise quiz and for the third time, i got 0 again! We also had a blank map quiz in CWG and good thing i was able to pass in this test. I think i won't be able to sleep early today because i need to give Arvee my part in the first draft of our research paper. Ciao!

Happy Birthday Mama!

Today is the special day of my mom because it's her 50th birthday! Golden girl! Woohoo! In the morning up to nooontime, i attended my ROTC training and we practiced for the Pasamasid on Tuesday. But to tell you, we had a longer time resting in the pav than marching at the field. I got home at 2pm just enough to eat lunch and take a rest because i have to attend the Holy Mass at 4:30 pm. Today was also the opening of PBA 30th Season Fiesta Conference. The first game was my team (Shell) vs. Bgy. Ginebra. Unfortunatelly, my team lost and the player(Rich Alvarez) we expected so much was not fielded by the new coach. Anyways, Mama had a delicious dinner celebration here in the house. Well, that's the special day of my Mom. Happy Birthday Mama!

Saturday

Today was a very ordinary Saturday. The whole day i was in the house doing nothing. It was just in the afternoon when i went out to play basket ball. I went out again at 8pm to chill at coop with friends and then went home at about 10pm and then slept already because i have an ROTC training tomorrow. Ciao!

Sorry na!?

It's Friday na! This morning i went to Angelicum Coll. to bring the FEAD kit for incoming 1st yr college students. We had our lectures in Eco ad CA. But unfortunatelly, Sir Nicky still hates our section. We have done so much effort to say sorry but still he sees no atonement. Well, i just hope that he will be able to understand. We did not have Socio class and then our Geography was cut because of a Rally at the UST grandstand. I arrived home at about 5:30pm and then played basketball for a while. But the highlight of the night is when me and my friends talked about the person we have a problem with. Well, that person will be hidden for my blog readers until we have fixed our problem with that person! Sorry friend but we've had enough! We want things to be back to normal again! Hehe. That's my sorry Friday! Ciao!

FPJ Rally, ABSC Elections and Failed Logic Quiz!

This morning FPJ supporters formed a demonstration in different parts of Metro Manila to save thier idol. But unfortunatelly they didn't save the commuters. Many had a hard time going to their schools and offices especially those who studies and works in the City of Manila. I was one of the victims and even my classmates too. Believe it or not, because of so much traffic, I walked from Bluementritt st. to UST just to be sure that i won't be late for class. When i arrived at school at about 12:30nn. Our Lit class was shorthened because we voted for ABSC elections. Go SDP! Last for the day was the Logic Quiz. Honestly, i wasn't preapred that much and even got mental blocked. So that means a failed quiz again and i'm bound to repeat my Logic Class. Buti na lang, i was able to go home with HURT. At least yung pagod at hirap ko sa Logic quiz ay medyo nawala. That's all for today! Ciao!

"Jealous of the one whose arms are around you..."
February 18, 2004

Today, i woke up so early because we will have our Bilibid Visit. The call time at front of UST Chapel is 6am so i woke up at 4am. I was able to arrive at USTe before 6am. Just in time to make chika with my classmates. We left USTe for Bilibid at about 7am. We arrived at Bilibid at about 8am. First, we viewed the Maximum Security area and then we had the chance to interact and eat lunch with 2 inmates from Medium Security (Camp Sapaguita) namely, Kuya Erwin and Kuya Dennis. The performance of both the students of USTe and some of the inmates was a good one and we enjoyed it as well. Thanks to the inmates especially Kuya Dennis and Kuya Erwin, because we learned a lot from them especially with how to deal with our lives. If you are wondering why my blog's title like that. Well, it's because HURT and one of my classmates was so sweet in the bus (actually they were seatmates in the bus) and they passed by me a few times to show off that my classmate's arms was wrapped around HURT. I know i don't have any right to get jealous but that classmate of mine knows that i like HURT so why in the world does "SHE" need to act like that in front of me? I'm so sorry it's just that I Love HURT so much! I got home at about 6pm and just to remove the pain in my heart, i just played basketball at the newly renovated Clubhouse Basketball Court. That's all for today! I need to study pa for our Logic Quiz tomorrow. Thanks to Sir Tobias for staying with us in our bus! *Happy Birthday Kat! Ciao!

Angel Voice!
February 17, 2004

Today was a blast! I was able to have a good conversation with HURT. Guess what? I didn't know that she's a good singer. She sings like an ANGEL! Just hearing her ANGEL VOICE when singing makes me fall for her again even more! Whew! Plus we had again those funny moments. Awww. How i wish it would be always like that and for sure my day will always be complete kahit pagod pagod pa ako. Well, we didn't have our Lit and Theo class for today. So at least medyo hindi kami pagod for our Exposure trip tomorrow at Blibid. I arrived home from school at about 7:30 pm. Early enough to have a good rest because i need to wake up early tomorrow. Well, that's all for today! Ciao!

Eco Test
February 16, 2004

Today was an ordinary day for me. We had our quiz in CA and for the second time around i failed. Shift na kaya ako ng socio? hehe! We didn't have our socio class and then we had a fun discussion in Geoography. Before i went home, i took my On-line Eco test @ Excel. I was answering question #15 when the internet had a problem so i wasn't able to log out properly. So i got so afraid that i might fail the first quiz. I got home a little early so i went to Block1 to play some ball. At about 9 pm, i tried to access the Eco on-line quiz and luckily it started at question #16 but the problem is the remaining time pala is moving. The time count was 6hours and something but the required time of answering the quiz is only 15 mins. I got to answer all the questions and i even got a score of 28/40. But still, i left a message for Sir Manapat regarding the problem i encountered. I just wish he will understand. Yahoo! I got my cd's na form Cha-Cha! Ciao! *Happy Birthday Noreen!

NYOY @ Colayco Park!
February 11, 2004

Today was the start of campaign for ABSC candidates. Go SDP! Vote straight! Vote SDP! Happy 40 AB Acoustic Night also happened tonight. The concert started at about 6:30 pm with front acts from Tunorg bands. During one of the intermssion of the front act, i won a Wave 89.1 shirt just by singing the song "Rainbow" by South Border. At about 8:30 pm, the main event started and that is none other than Nyoy Volante w/ his Mannos. But before they serenaded us with their good music, i got the chance to meet them and have my Nyoy Volante CD autographed by all the band members. It was an unforgettable experience for me. The concert finished at about 10:30 pm but even though I went home late, the whole night was so good! Ciao! *Happy Birthday Kristine!

Went home smiling!
February 12, 2004

Today was the last day of Happy 40 AB, what's funny about it was i just got my AB shirt just this morning. The AB shirt was nice and to tell you, i am proud of wearing it. According to the shirt "Wala ng hahanapin pa!" That's true! In AB you'll find everything! Also today, we had a quiz in Lit w/c i think i failed. The following sessions were good not until our Logic class where Sir Bolanos got mad at our section. Strike 5 for 1ca1, 3 more to go! But the highlight of the day was when i went home w/ HURT! I couldn't remove the smile in my face because i can't believe that i'm walking with her and was beside her in the FX. Plus, the fact that she listens to my stories and laugh at funny ones. Whew, i miss those times! Damn, just being with HURT completes my tiring day! Well, now you know why i went home smiling! Ciao!

Chocolates, Stuff Toy and Heart-shaped balloon!
February 13, 2004

One day before the much awaited Valentine's day! For today, i went home again with a smile. Know why? First, is because i got HURT some chocolates, stuff toy and a heart shaped balloon for Valentine's Day! What made it more special was the moment i gave it to her before our dismissal. I felt so "kilig" because not only i was able to give her the gift but when she replied "Thank You" and "Happy Valentine's" to me. Her sweet voice was like a voice of an angel whispering in my ears that makes me fall for her even more. And I can consider that moment as one of my best or should i say my best pre-Valentine's Day experience! Second, was the dinner treat of Tin at Greenbelt 3. Yes! For the first time after years i was able to go to Greenbelt 3. The place was so cool, that you have a wide variety of cuisines! Tin treated us(Me, Rej, Arbie, Kenneth, Chinkee, Liszt, Czare and Mike) at Max's Greenbelt. The food was good "sarap to the bones!" My finale for the day was the Sausage Band Party at Loyola Hts Condominium. I went there with some F1 Kada peeps. But when the party ended we transferred to Amet's house and there they continued drinking. I went home at 3:30 am but again with a smile! Whew, two days, two wonderful fRUTHful days! Ciao! *Happy Birthday Lola Judith!

Ordinary Valentine's Day!
February 14, 2004

Today was such an ordinary day. Although it's Valentine's day i still stayed home all day. I didn't have any dates or gimiks for today. The first time i went out was when i attended the Holy Mass at 7pm. I was fetched by Biong at about 9pm because Valyn will have her despidida party. That party will never be forgotten because we got the chance to be with Valyn before she departs for Peru. I went home early at about 12am due to some circumstances but still left Valyn with something to be remembered wherever she will go. Well Valyn you already know what it is and Valyn we will surely miss you! Take care of yourself wherever you are right now. That's my ordinary Valentine's Day! Ciao! Load up P250! Happy Valentine's Day to all!!!

Mega Reunion
February 15, 2004

Today we had a sound system service at Father Blanco's Garden, Intramuros for the Mega Family Reunion of the Hidalgo family in which Tita Marisa is a member. The food was so many and so good, that i miss the chance to taste it all. But still i enjoyed eating. The party started at about 4pm w/ a Holy Mass and ended at about 8:30pm. We arrived home at about 10:30 pm. That's all for today! I miss you HURT! Ciao!

Umasa o Pakawalan?
February 10, 2004

This morning our PE classes was cancelled because our prof. attended something. After eating lunch at D' Fort, we hjelped in preparing the Rizal Con. for the Profline, and i even absent myself from Lit class. Unfortunatelly, due to unexpected circumastances, the show did not push through. We didn't have Theo class that is why our Logic class was earlier than the standard time. We had the 2nd round of recitation in our Logic class. I was the 2nd one who was called and because i did not study, i wasn't able to answer the question. Again, i failed the recitation in Logic, that means i need to pass all my quizzes and my finals just to pass the subject. Whew. Double effort! Well, today i thought it will be that easy to forget HURT. Kasi naman bakit ba ganon? Kapag umaayaw na ako bumabalik siya. Kapag gustong-gusto ko siya, wala naman akong pag-asa. Ano ba dapat gawin ko? Umasa na lang ba sa kanya o wag ng pilitin pa ang sarili ko sa kanya? Ciao! *Happy Birthday DES! *Please Watch Happy 40 AB Acoustic Night feat.

Turon and Bed
February 9, 2004

Today was just an ordinary day for me. All our professors for today had lectures plus we had a Europe blank map quiz. After that we helped Karen Topacio do stuffs for Profline tomorrow(Styrofoam boys and girls back in action!) and we also helped Kuya Christ post the posters of HAPPY 40 AB Acoutic Night around USTe. This afternoon, AB celebrated the Turon festival. Turon was distributed to AB students for free, I wish everyone got the chance to eat turon. Well, just another ordinary day for me. Hooray! I have my bed na in Lola's house! Ciao!

PasaMAXSid!
February 8, 2004

This morning, we had our PASAMASID in ROTC. We were inspected by some ARESCOM officials to see if we were complying with the correct requirements in ROTC and if we were able to learn something. After the inspection, the official said that the ROTC unit of USTe is very satisfactory. On the afternoon, i attended a party at Max's Jupiter st., Makati. It was the 7th birthday of the son of Tita Gina's friend. On our way to the party, i was caught by an MMDA passing the yellow lane(Ordinance #0389) in Buendia. At first i got so mad simply because it was the first time that i got caught by a police. Well, my penalty was to surrender my license and i didn't bother to make suhol na the policemen because i know he's just doing his job and i admit that it's my fault. Good thing, i could redeem my license starting tomorrow afternoon(hopefully no delays!). Our last stop for the day was Robinson's Galleria (again for the 2nd time in two days!). We went there because i attended the Holy Mass at Edsa Shrine while Niki, Nina, Tita Gina, RR and Ron went window shopping at the mall. We got home by past 9 pm. I'm so tired na. I thik i have to take a rest na! Ciao! Ü Happy Birthday Jenica!

Party School Bus!
February 7, 2004

This morning, we went to Robinson's Galleria to buy a gift for Jenica and my Hawaian polo for Jenica's Luau party tonight. I was able to buy the gift, but unfortunatelly not the Hawaian polo. So what we did was to transfer at SM Megamall to see if there is one there. Well, not only one but a lot of designs were being sold that I had a hard time choosing. But because of time pressure because we need to go home na, i got a blue one w/flowers on it w/c i think is quite ok. When we got home, i immediatelly ate my lunch because i have my mentoring session at Sarangani at 3pm and it's already 2pm. I arrived at Sarangani at about 3:30pm. Although i'm late, Garry gave me mentoring session. After my mentoring session, i fetched Vea and Martin at Goldilock's España because sasabay sila sa akin going to Jenica's debut. Vea and Martin went in our house (they were my first UST classmates that went in my house). We left house going to Jenica's party at about 6:30pm and then we fetched Jesse in his house because he is also invited. We arrived at Jenica's party around 7pm. We were the first batch of 1CA1 visitors w/ Franco and Dale. Others just followed. Well, the party was obviously Hawaian (kaya nga Luau diba?) and i'm one of Jenica's 18 roses (actually 3rd). We had a lots of fun especially with the food w/c is so delicious. We left the party around 11:30pm because Jesse and I still have to attend Moe's party. But before that Franco and Dale invited us at Dome at The Podium to chill for a while. We left The Podium around 12mn and we still have to bring home Marvie, her Manang and Rej(taxi terminal @ Pasay rd.), Vea(Lacson st.), Martin(Retiro) and Badet(Starbucks Katipunan). Oh di ba School Bus ang eksena? Hehe! Well, that's how i care for my classmates! Anyways, Jesse and I arrived at Moe's party at around 1am and i had 2 beers and had some tus as well. We went home at around 2:30 am. Well, still have my ROTC later. Hmmm, I still have 2 and a half hours to sleep. Better go to bed na! Night! Ciao!

Zero
February 6, 2004

Today was an ordinary day for me. Well, we did not have our Eco and Socio class today so half of the load for the day was removed. When i got home in the afternoon, i had my hair shaved again (#0). Whew! Ang sarap talag ng feeling kapag kalbo ka! Hehe! After my haircut, i went to John-John's house to chill for a while and have some tus. I went home at about 5:30pm and after that I just stayed home for the remainder of the day! I'll sleep early tonight because for sure mapupuyat ako tomorrow! Night! Ciao!

Pipi!

Today might be the best day of the week for me! First, the Happy 40 AB started this morning with the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, grand parade around USTe and a major kainan at AB Bldg. lobby. After a tiring morning, there's this one person that eased my fatigue and completed my day. She's no other than HURT! She's so damn beautiful today (actually she's beautiful everyday! iba lang siguro yung kagandahan niya ngayon)! As in! What made it more complete is when i sat beside her in the Educ. Auditorium when we watched the play "Aida." HURT talked to me, listened to my stories, laughed at my hirits, borrowed my cellfne (read my messages), said thank you and wrote my name on the attendance paper. Oh, that beautiful face and sweet voice of HURT when she talks definitely makes me go crazy and makes me fall for her even more! Here's an excerpt of our conversation a while ago when i started talking to her:

HURT: O, nakakapagsalita ka na!
Dipa: Oo naman! Ano kala mo sa kin? Pipi?
HURT: Hindi ba?

HURT, mawala man lahat senses ko ay hindi magababago ang nararamdaman ko para sa'yo. Pero wag na sana mangyari yun kasi baka hindi ko na makita ang kagandahan mo at hindi ko na marinig ang sweet voice mo. Damn! I love you so much! Well, i'll end up na my blog for this HAPPY THURSDAY! Happy 40 AB! Ciao!

Work,work,work!

Today was a working day for me and for most of the 1st year students especially the coucil peeps. Tomorrow will be the start of Happy 40 AB. Because of that, the styrofoam boys and girls (as Sir Tobias calls us) are back in action again. Panel boards here, invitations and flyers there! Well, that's the challenge of being an AB Student Council staffer. Also, today was the filing of the candidacy for aspiring officers of ABSC this coming SY 2004-2005! Good luck to all the candidates! Lastly, i was able to talk to HURT today and you kow what she said to me? "Ang weird mo talaga!" Hai. kailan kaya ako magiging normal sa paningin niya? Eventhough my feelings to you will never change. Kahit maging abnormal pa ko! Sorry. Mahal kita eh! That's my working Wednesday! Ciao! HAPPY 40 AB!

Baliw!

Yesterday morning i arrived late in my PE class but good thing our prof. did not notice it. You know what's bad trip for yesterday? First of all, i failed our quiz in Lit and Theo. What made my day worst was when i got my prelims grade in Logic. Pucha, 72 lang ako. Ano ba yan? Bagsak na nga ko sa Eco bagsak pa ko sa Logic! What's next kaya? Another thing, ang dami-dami as in madami talaga naming babayaran sa school. Hindi ko alam kung saan ako hahagilap ng pambayad sa mga ito. Hai, bahala na si Batman! On the lighter side, naka-text ko si HURT! Grabe, sabi niya sa kin baliw daw ako at kung bakit hindi ko siya kausapin sa school. Ay kung alam mo lang HURT, madami akong gusto sabihin sa iyo ngunit hindi ko lang alam kung how will you react on these things i wanna tell you. Oo nga pala HURT, baliw ako dahil sa'yo! Ang ganda mo kasi! That's my Tuesday! Ciao!

Meet the President!

For the first time in my 18 years existence here on earth, i was able to meet and shake hands with the President of my country. Pres. GMA
was in our school to promote her scholarship. Well, my Monday was not so hectic because we did not have any activities and subjects for the day! I think i'll end up na my blog for this day by saying "Hi HURT!" Ciao!

After the Dance Concert...

After watching Jane and Cha-Cha showcased their dancing skills, F1 Kada went to Gerry's grill Libis to eat dinner. But before we enjoyed the delicious food we have to hurdle the bumper to bumper traffic in Katipunan. It took us about 45 mins to an hour before we escaped the monstrous traffic. When we arrived at Gerry's grill, we were so quiet while eating. It's a sign that all of us were very hungry. Oh, by the way, we did not spend any money because Mico treated us. THANK YOU MICO! After dinner, F1 Kada went to our house to have an inuman. Again, Mico treated us with 1 case of beer. THANK YOU MICO! They went home at about 3:30 am, Saturday. And that's what happened after the dance concert! Ciao!

Hectic!

Yesterday was a very hectic day for me. First Mico and I went to Holy Spirit fair to watch the concert of SHS Chorale. Actually two of my close friends were part of it, Leira (who had a solo number) and Krina (the conductor). It was a very nice concert. The songs were good and were sang beautifully. Congrats Leira and Krina! After watching SHS Chorale in concert. Afi and I watched Mico's ABL game at the Rizal Tech. Univ. Although they lost, I was still amazed with Mico's block. Good job Mico! My second to the last activity for the night was to watch SHS's Band Aid '04 again with Mico but now we are joined by my Shobe(Jane), Leira, Cha-Cha, Clare?! and Valyn. 17:28 and Rivermaya were some of the famous OPM artists who performed during the concert. The concert finished at about 10:30 pm. Last stop for the night was in Corrida Don Antonio. We went there with the help of Mico's van which was eventually jampacked. Hehe. There were about 20 passengers inside the van. Again, for the third time in two days, Mico treated us again with 4 or 5 buckets of beer, Corrida rice and Sisig. THANK YOU VERY MUCH MICO! We went home at about 1 am, Sunday. Mico, Cha-Cha, Valyn and Clare?! went straight home to F1 while i accompanied Jane and KD to their own houses. I arrived home at about 2 am and still have 3 hours to sleep because i still have my ROTC at 7 am. Wow, what a hectic Saturday for me! Ciao! *HAPPY BIRTHDAY BESTY!!! *Load up P 250!

Tired...But had fun!

For today...In the morning up to noontime i had my ROTC. A very tiring ROTC training Sunday because we need to prepare for the Pasamasid next Sunday. That is why i wouldn't be able to join the outing on Saturday, but now, i could attend Jenica's debut! Yahoo! Anyways, after a very tiring training, my family and I went to Verdana Homes in Las Piñas to attend my cousin Maby's 7th birthday. I felt like i was a kid again because i had fun watching the crazy antics of the party's emcee plus i had my arm bodypainted with The Flash's logo. Whew. Ang sarap talaga magpakabata kahit paminsan-minsan lang. Well, that's my tiring but fun Sunday! Ciao! *Sorry FYC...Hope you understand! *Advance Happy Birthday Navie and Moe! *I miss you so much HURT!

Cheerdance

Today will be a cheering day for me! This morning we had the Cheermania at UST. Unfortunatelly, due to technical problems, AB cheering team lost to UST high school. Even though, i still commend the performance of AB cheering team! For me, sila pa rin ang champion! Right now i'am just waiting for john-john, anne and some of my friends because we are on our way to Holy Spirit to watch their Dance concert! Oh by the way, Cha-Cha's gonna dance! Good luck Cha-Cha! Lastly, the girl i like did not talk to me today. That means my day is kinda not complete. Hehe. Ciao!

"Chill"
As i have said, yesterday was a holiday for USTe. So what i did was clean the car in the morning and eventually broke the shifter knob of our van. In the afternoon, i went to John-John's house to chill with F1 Kada, ate some ice cream, had some tus and played 1,2,3 pass! And in the evening i watched Single in which i appeared again (whew! feeling artista! hehe!). Before the night ended, i went again to John-John's house to chill. I went home at 2am in the morning because good thing my class today will start at 1pm. Well. That's how i spent my 1 day vacation yesterday. Ciao!

"Rejected"
After a grueling prelims exams and a long 1 day vacation, i'm back to school again for the finals period. Well, for today i was able to get my lit and english prelims exams results and grade w/c i think is very low. Remember the girl i like so much (actually she's my classmate)? Well, she talked to me, asked for a tel. # and borrowed my charger but when i was about to tell her a joke, she told me that she has no time for my jokes. After that incident, i feel so rejected! Minsan na lang nga ako mag-joke sa kanya, tinabla pa ko. Hai. But still, just seeing her completes my tiring day! Pretty niya talaga! Get well soon Vea and Shobe! Ciao!

Extraordinary?!

Woohooo. It's St. Thomas Aquainas' day today and that means No Classes for USTe. hehe. But still no plans for this 1 day vacation. Yesterday was an extraordinary day. First, we had our prelims in CA 202. Damn! It's the hardest CA test that i took and there is a big chance i will fail my major subject for the prelims period. After that grueling test, "The Gang" went to SM Manila to celebrate my Besty's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY BESTY!) and we watched "The Gathering." Being with The Gang again after quite sometime relieved the fatigue i had because of my CA test. I went home at about 3:30 pm to drive my mom at Makati. Again, another exhausting event. Gosh! The traffic in Edsa was so monstrous! What made it worse was when i was bumped in my front bumper(actually "naatrasan") by a taxi. I got so mad that my mom was forced to calm me down. Good thing when i checked my bumper there was no dents or wounds, but still i asked my mom to get some info. of the taxi. Before i slept i got a miscol and text from the person whom i like so much! A "miss you" quote from her. And yes I MISS HER SO MUCH! Well, at least i ended my long extraordinary day with a smile! Go USTe(Congrats!) to Cha-Cha, Jane Carla and Ton-Ton! Niq artista ka na! Watch Singles tonight, 8pm ABC 5! Ciao!
