Muntik na akong mahulog sa upuan nung nakita ko ang picture ni Madam Auring! Sus me! Kasukasuka! Dyos ko! Patawarin ako! Parang ang sarap magpakamatay pag naging cover girl si Madam Auring noh!

schadenfreude- A malicious satisfaction obtained from the misfortunes of others.

Don't know how to pronounce it. does anyone know?

Sa istorya ni Jarry nung meeting nya with the Central Board (CB), talagang nagisa nga talaga sya. Kaya pala “pressure” yung reply nya saken sa text nung tinanong ko kung kamusta yung meeting nya. Well in my point view ano, most of the members ng CB ay talagang so full of themselves. Feeling kasi nila porque nanalo sila in a campaign eh they're superior na. Hindi uubra sakin yung ganyang attitude nila noh! Magbabarahan kami dun!

Ang kwento kasi ni Jarry, parang super nega daw lahat nung members ng CB. Lahat gusto sila yung i-prioritize. Lalong lalo na daw si Kat Corpuz yung sa Engineering. “My God, 2000 kami, andami namin, hindi ba pwedeng kami na mauna?” more or less ganyan daw yung sinabi ni Kat. Naku! Ang tagal na nya sa council noh! Hindi pa ba sya nakakaisip ng way na maoptimize yung tour? Kung nandun ako, babarahin ko yung babaing yun!

“Are you saying that the CSC should prioritize Engineering and leave other councils idle while waiting for the shipment for Engineering to be complete? Ikaw na nagsabi marami kayo, and right now we only have 750 kits and shipment is in batches. Ang panget naman kung hihintayin pa natin makumpleto yung para sa Engineering habang pinaghihintay natin yun iba. Why not look the other perspective? Another point is this is just a preliminary talk regarding the Thomasian Walk. We will still have to deliberate with Mr. Cachero regarding this. Hindi pa ito final. We will do our job, and you should do yours.” – Wilberta Dyosa

Hindi kasi ako naiintimidate sa position nila ano. Wag nilang pagmamayabang sa kin yun. I think kung hindi man ako angat, kapantay ko lang sila. Excuse me lang! Tsaka sabi nga ni Jarry, lahat ng tinatanong nila saken, nasasagot ko kagad. It shows na ni siang katiting ng intimidation wala sa katawan ko! Dapat talaga sa next time na imi-meet ni Jarry yung mga yun, assistant nya ako, para mambabara ako! Whahahaah!

Ang UST-Central Board ay ang prime body in the University that legislates policies and guidelines pertaining to the student body. Kumbaga, sila ang Senado ng Student Councils. They are composed of all the presidents of the different Student Councils with the CSC president as an ex officio member.

Nung isang gabi, nakusap ko si Kuya Cachi so phone. I've been meaning to talk to him the past days kasi andami kong tanong na naaipon. Natanong ko kung kelan ako pwedeng humarap sa Central Board (CB). Ang sabi nya may meeting daw ang CB bukas ng gabi (kagabi). Tinanong ko kung pwede ba ako isingit dun sa agenda. Si Jarry daw ang uupo in behalf of him. Kaya tinext ko si Jarry. Sya na daw bahala.

Kahapon, mga around 4pm, dumating yung speaker ng CB, si Dianne, ang president ng Accountancy Student Council. Trivia: Sya din yung courtside reporter ng UST sa UAAP. Well nagulat talaga ako nung nalaman kong siya yung president ng Accountancy, tumakbo pala sya? Ang alam ko kasi straight LAKAS ang nanalo dun, so ibig sabihin LAKAS sya. Well anyway, tinanong ko sya kung nasabi sa kanya ni Jarry to include TP4 in there agenda. Hindi naman daw. Ito talagang si Jarry oh.

Sa Central Board meeting, binigay ko muna yung pinapadala ni Jarry, yung Student Design Manual, and then umupo muna sa tabi while there still having there session of scrutinizing the Student Election Code. Nung dumating na ang time ko. Medyo kinabahan din naman ako kahit papano. I'm not one with their circle, hindi ako tumakbo at nanalo, appointed lang ako. But that didn't stop me with my aim to address to them this great project called Thomasian Project 4.

Ok naman yung usapan, although napapansin ko lang na yung mga nasa farther side eh hindi nakikinig, nakacircle kasi kami. Ang mga ramdam ko lang naging interested ay yung mga taong malalapit saken. Yung mga malalayo, specifically CFAD and that girl na hindi ko knowing, ay medyo nagkukulitan. Si Jarry nga din hindi nakikinig. Si Dianne nga nung ni-announce ko yung name number at email address ko alam kong hindi nya sinulat. The bitch! Nagkunwari pang sumusulat, cheap ass! NAKAKADEGRADE SYA! HINDI KO SYA GAGALANGIN NA EVER! After that, umalis nako, binalikan ko na si Mon sa CSC office.

Totoo ba to? eh feeling ko nga kahit yung mga bakla sa parlor eh kayang basahin tong blog ko eh! Naamaze naman ako!

Super natawa ako sa picture na yan! Wahahahahah! Hindi ba pwede sa batya nalang lumaki si baby? lalagyan ko nalang ng tube para dun ko nalang ilalagay ang mga necessary nutrients para mabuhay sya.

Wow ah, si Arnie nag-gigitara! Marunong ba naman kaya? Nakasalubong ko nga lang yan kanikanina lang. Nag-aaya magdota. Eh magbloblog ako kaya ayoko. Infairness, gumagwapo ang mokong na ito ah. Well, medyo kampante ako kasi kahit wala na si Flor, yung ate nya, medyo nagmamature na sya. Piff mahal ko yan si Arn, hindi ko lang masyadong pinapakita.

5. I love to talk.

I just want to share everything about me. I want to socialize by simply talking. Having a good conversation is my idea of a good time. Although you are reading a blog entry, it is also somehow listening to the author. I write my blogs in the way I would say it. If after the phrase I will laugh, I'll put a “Whahahahahahahaah!” after it. Or I would sigh, “piff!”. Bottomline is, I write the blogs in a way that you will hear me talking about it in person.

4. It's a spirit of sharing

Many people share their lives through their blogs. Some are informative, some may share the same interest with other people, others, inspiring. I don't know what category blog falls under. But I write because I know others would be interested to read it.

3. It's Stress relieving.

I'm a really busy person. I have responsibilities in school and at home. All of which are taking a toll on me. I write these because it sort of keep me relax. I also notice that when I'm doing blogs, I tend to remember things more clearly and I'm able to think more concise.

2. It's to inform my friends about my life.

As I said, I'm a really busy person. That is the primary reason why I'm always bailing out when my friends are going lakwatsa. And I don't really have time to talk to them in person either. So I resort to writing blogs so they can be updated about my life.

1. For Having friends

Although we, most of us anyway, don't know each other in person. Still, we know that we are part of the blogsite author's life when we read his/her entries. It's about sharing and then connecting with your fellow bloggers. And I can say that I'm proud to be a blogger. Kudos to all the bloggers out there! Especially my favorite ones! (tingin sa kaliwa, then kaway everlou!) Wahahahahahha!

yung gurlalou, classmate ko nung elementary. Kasama nya yung asawa nyang singkit. Yung boylalou ang pag-uuspan naten. BAKET KAMUKHA SYA NI SIR CHAO!? WTF! Baka kapatid ni Sir Chao yan! UST-ChE! Comments!



Kapatid or not kapatid ni Sir Chao si singkit?

Calculus in 20 mins


very informative!

Calculus Christmas Carols

Kakatawa! Sobra!

U + Me = Us (Calculus)

Boy band! Infairness! May cute!

Graphalicious

Ang galing ng lyrics! Nakakatawa!

My Humps

She's got me graphing... oh graphing all your functions on me... on me!

Calculus

C-A-L-C-U-L-U-S. Ohhh... the calculus! the quotient quotient. calculus! Oh the calculus calculus!

Wonderwall

He's right, were just too lazy to study calculus

The Derivative Song

Nakakaloka!

“Calculus is like bringing a hooker back to your hotel room, only to find out that the hooker is a guy with felony convictions, but the guy won't leave without you paying, so you figure you might as well make use of his services... and then he rapes you and steals all your money and leaves you blindfolded and handcuffed to a radiator which is blowing steam in your face.”

~ Oscar Wilde on Calculus 0

Warning: Alcohol and Calculus do not mix. Don't drink and derive.

too bad you don't derive you differentiate... Calculus is the worst thing ever created by man or beast. Invented sometime in the 18th century, it represents a culmination of hatred toward high school students. There are ten types of Calculus so far: Pre Calculus, Boring Calculus, Hard Calculus, Really Hard Calculus, Weird calculus, Hand Waving Calculus, PowerCalculus (which is obtained only after drinking Powerthirst in RAWberry form) and Really Hard, Really Boring, Weird-as-Fuck Calculus, the deadliest of all the calculi, followed by God of Math.

Before the invention of algebra, calculus consisted of coloring in the area below the line, or measuring the slope of the line, or making lines... oh hell, I don't know what it consisted of before Algebra. Although your parents say they took Calculus before you did and didn't whine about it, it was entirely Pre-Algebra Calculus. Just ask for help with your homework, you'll see. What I'm trying to say is that your parents are retards (no offense). The original use of calculus (which is still used today by some), was to test students for the capability of practicing ritualistic Satan worship: By forcing students to stay up for hours unended, and show no signs of lack of sleep, and also "think outside the box", it was possible to find those who would be able to take part in night-long Satanic rituals. Calculus is still used today in this fashion by sadistic teachers who hope that you fail anyway. Gawd! I HATE CALCULUS!

The passage above is an excerpt from an article from
http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Calculus

As much as I want to hate the subject, I'm an Engineering student. So I have to love it whether I like it or not. Read the rest of the entry.

Herpes Zoster aka Shingles, is an acute inflammation of the central nervous system. It causes a blister like rash and neuralgic pain in areas of the skin supplied by the affected nerves, most often in a band (Greek, zoster) around one side of the trunk.

Grabeh na ito, naiimagine ko lang ang taong may ganito, although it is called Herpes, its not the STD. Hindi ko pa talaga nakikita yung actual na itsura, nahihiya din kasi akong itanong kung pwede ko rin ba makita, pero as the name suggests, band-like ang itsura nya. Neuralgic pain, ibig sabihin, sa nerves yung saket. Masaket talaga yun. Ang normal pain sa nerves din naman, pero that is due of a stimuli, eh pero in this case, kusa nalang sumasaket. Ang normal pain pag hinimas himas mo, nawawala ang saket eh.

Herpes Zoster and varicella or chicken pox are caused by the same virus. It is called as V-Z virus. Initial infection of the virus will result to chicken pox. After recovery, the virus will remain dormant to the root of the nerves. Reactivation of the virus will cause a skin eruption supplied by the nerves in which the virus remained dormant.

So kung hindi ka pa nagkakaron ng Chicken pox, at exposed ka sa taong may Herpes Zoster, magkakachicken pox ka. Pero kung nagkachicken pox ka na, Herpes Zoster ang dadapo syo. Since pareho lang naman ang virus na nagdudulot ng mga sakit na yan.

The first sign of Herpes Zoster is often pain in the area that the eruption will occur. The rash usually extends from the spine one one side of the body and around the midline in front. Normally, the blisters appear for about four to five days. In th next week or two, they dry up, crust over, then heal. The most troublesome aspect of this disease is the pain. It may persist even after the blisters are gone.

Imagine an oval cut in the center vertically, yung one side, ganun yung magiging affected side. Parang ang herpes zoster ay chicken pox lang, mas mahaba nga lang ang healing process and mas masakit. We're talking about aching nerves here. Pero hindi sya makati. Tsaka sa torso lang sya lumalabas unlike its simple counterpart, na kalat, although may cases na pag mahina yung immune system ng patient, kakalat na parang sa chicken pox.



Herpes Zoster


Sa naalala ko sa medication ng friend ko. Nagets ko na yung idea kung baket nya iniinom yung mga gamot na yun. Anti-biotics, vitamins, analgesics. Grabeh. Andami, pero gets ko na. Hindi man ako expert sa field na yun, at least naiintindihan ko nah.

Hindi ko inexpect na I would stay sa CSC office that late. Near 9:30 nako umalis. Wala rin sa plan ko na pumunta sa office, wala lang, bigla ko lang naisipang dumaan lang.

Pagdating ko may mga people, nagulat nga ako nandun si Jarry, sya kasi yung expected kong hindi pupunta sa activity nila. May exercise ekek project yung Office of the Student affairs namin. Ewan ko ba bat hapon nila ginanap yun. Well anyway, nandun din si Paul, yung PRO, si John, yung makwentong staffer, si Sky, alam ko lang yung name nya, at meron pang dalawa na hindi ko kilala, yung isa nursing obviously kasi may nursing book sya na binabasa, at isang gurlalou na wai spluk masyado.

Syempre, palusot, tinanong ko kung nandun si PI, isang staffer na staff din ng Central COMELEC, may tatanong kasi ako sabi ko. Philip Israel ang name nya, hindi Putang Ina. OK? Buti nandun si Paul, gusto ko na kasi as early as possible magawa yung website ng CSC. Pumayag kasi akong maging designer nun. Kaso yung mga “clients” ko hindi clear ang gusto. Hindi nila alam kung anong klaseng site ang gusto nilang gawin. Ganito kasi ang ni-suggest ko. Kung gusto nila na puro information, we'll use XML and CSS as language, kung gusto nila ng interactivity, Flash ang program na gagamitin. Unfortunately, wala talaga kaming idea kung ano yung gusto ni Kuya Cachi, yung president, dun sa site. After naming, magusap ni Paul, umalis na sya with Sky and the wai ispluk na gurlalou. Kami namang natira, kumain sa Wendy's.

Grabeh ang mga kasama ko, kung kain, kain talaga. Eh pano, ako lang ata yung mahirap dun sa mga natira. Ang mga binili nilang food, over a hundred yung prices, samantalang ako, 74.14 lang. Yung kay Jarry nga 214.56 eh. Pwede kong kasuhan yung branch ng Wendy's na yun, yung nakadisplay nilang prices wala pang 12% VAT. Bawal yun. Pagkaakyat ko, binanatan ako ni Jarry, “Ang tagal mong nag-isip yan lang binili mo?” Sa loob loob ko, eh sa wala akong pera ano! Aba, napansin ko lahat sila may frostie. Ang yayaman talaga. Leche! So ayun, kwentuhan galore, kahit puro boys ang kasama ko. Pinag-chit-chat-an ni Jarry tsaka nung nursing guy ang isang sakit called, Herpes Zoster. Actually, wala akong maintindihan, kundi yung medication lang, kasi kelangan daw ng Potassium permanganate compress. Napaisip naman ako. Oxidizing agent yung KMnO4, kung gagawin mo syang compress, dapat itapat mo sa ilaw para mangyari yung desired oxidizing effect. Napag-alaman ko din na may anti-bacterial properties ang KMnO4. Kinausap ako ni Nursing guy, “So Engineering ka?” Obvious ba? Nakikita mo ba yung Engineering shirt ko? After a few more chit-chats, umalis na kami at iniwan si Nursing guy sa Wendy's dahil dun daw sya mag-aaral.

Bumalik si atashi sa CSC office, kasama si Jarry and John. Wala rin naman kami masyadong ginawa. Pinagdiskitahan ni John at ni Jarry yung mga ipis na naglalaro sa office. Mukha syang malinis, actually, kulay golden sya. Bonggacious! Pero in the end, ipis pa din sila, kelangan patayin. Mukha ngang tanga si Jarry, kasi parang kinakarate nya yung mga ipis. Whahahahahaah! Shortly after, umalis na si John. Ako, binuksan ko yung favorite computer ko, at nagpasya nalang akong mag-update ng blog at magbasa-basa na din ngiba pang blogs. Matagal tagal din yun. Nung lumingon ako, wala si Jarry, pero alam ko kung nasan sya. Nandun sya sa kabilang side ng mga computers. Alam kong nandun sya kasi dun nanggagaling yung tunog ng cellphone nya. Nung nagpasya nakong umalis, kasi Desperate Housewives na, lumapit ako kay Jarry. Nakita ko syang nakahiga at medyo natutulog na sa mga ni-line up na chairs. Believe me, gusto kong magstay, ayoko sana kasing iwan si Jarry. Nafi-feel ko yung saket na iniinda nya, I have never seen a boy so fragile. Pero umalis pa din ako, I have responsibilities pa kasi to attend to. Pero deep inside me, I long to say to him these words: Friendship goes both ways. Lagi nya kasi akong tinutulungan, gusto ko ako naman ang makatulong sa kanya.

I was succumbed by that melancholy feeling. Every inch of my plump body simply plunged to a weary state. All the while, that recent song plays repeatedly on my mind. Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see... Fake a smile so he won't see... I uttered so slow and lonely.

Wilberchie mood. I have always had this mood. It was just a surprise why it came to me now after all the stressful nights I had the week before. On one side it was a good thing, it means that my brain wants me to think so it will not rot. On another side it was a bad thing. This is going to be a sleepless night.

I feel like a house in a Potemkin village. A house whose facade is as vibrant as the shining sun but whose interior is as hollow as a drain pipe. There are many unresolved issues within me that I am yet to cope. People may see me as a person of strong personality. A tree whose trunk can withstand the many storms of life. But sometimes this tree wants to put his branches down, and simply be a tree. A person. A person susceptible to mistakes and sickness. A person who has needs and likes. A person whose personality is not as stagnant as a coke in a bottle. I am a person. I am human. I also have feelings. I also cadge for understanding.

I don't regret that I chose the path of a homosexual male. It has ups and downs just like straight persons. According to my keen sense of observation, I am enjoying and enduring both at the same time. This is a Wilberchie moment so I won't talk about the ups.

I love him. But I can never have him. If I can have him. I'll turn him down. I can see a bright future ahead of him, I don't want that vision to blur. I want him to have a wife, kids, and live as a normal husband and father. Adding more on more to my jar of emptiness. Borrowing a line from Teardrops on my guitar, he's the only one whose got enough of me to break my heart. He took all the pieces of me that I gave him. And now, I am sensitive everything that is related to him. I can say that holistic Wilberchie would not exist without this man. But, there's only one thing I can do, think about him and sigh. Think about how I can come up with a compromise, hiding in the abyss that he owns my heart. One more time, the song echoed through my head, and suddenly, a teardrop fell on this purple folder. I'll bet she's beautiful that girl he talks about, she's got everything that I had to live without... and then another...

Left: Ms. Rosario Garcia; Right: Nanay Maritess Barredo

Kahapon nung pauwi nako after ko magparapara, nasa lubong ko yung 2 teachers ko nung 4th year. Ang adviser and English teacher ko na si Mrs. Barredo; at ang Filipino teacher ko na si Ms. Garcia. Ganun pa din si Ms. Garcia, makulit pa din na seryoso (gets mo?). Si Nanay Tess naman, mahaba na ang hair. Syempre and unang tanong: Kamusta kana? Aba syempre! Sasabihin ko yung natural kong sinasabi. "Eto busy." Tinanong din ako ni nanay kung pumunta kami kay Flor. "Of course naman Ms, friend yun eh." Tapos binigyan ko sila ng card ko, kaso si Ms. Garcia, medyo sira yung nabigay kong card, yung basa. Well anyway inaacept naman nila. Tapos kamustahan galore saken, "Mukhang hiyang na hiyang ka sa UST ah, ang ganda ng katawan mo." sabi ni Nanay Tess, na sinigundahan naman ni Ms. Garcia. Gusto ko ngang sabihin na nakablack lang ako kaya ganun. Wahahhahaha! "Busy nga po ako, ako na po kasi yung dirctor nung org namin na student teachers." sabi ko. "Wow ah, talaga naman". With that nagpaalam nako. Mukhang may pupuntahan sila eh. Sana itext nila ako.

OMG! Nakakaadik tong Blogthings! Ang ikli lang kasi nung mga questionaire kaya ang sarap magsagot! Ang masasabi ko lang, they are all so true!

Your Scent is Pumpkin Pie

Warm, comforting, and a bit old fashioned You've got what men want - believe it or not!

Your Thinking is Abstract and Sequential

You like to do research and collect lots of information. The more facts you have, the easier it is for you to learn. You need to figure things out for yourself and consider all possibilities. You tend to become an expert in the subjects that you study. It's difficult for you to work with people who know less than you do. You aren't a very patient teacher, and you don't like convincing people that you're right.

Your Psyche is Violet

You are spiritual, intuitive, and serene. People trust you to rescue them from bad situations, and you usually come through. While you are quite enlightened, you find that your path is very lonely. When you are too violet: you can't connect to ordinary life or ordinary people When you don't have enough violet: you lack wisdom and can't learn from the past

You Go For Brains!

You want a guy with a big... brain. And of course it would be nice if he were a total hottie, but you're not counting on it. What's on the inside is what counts for you. (Besides, you can always change the outside later!)

You Are Rain

You can be warm and sexy. Or cold and unwelcoming. Either way, you slowly bring out the beauty around you. You are best known for: your touch Your dominant state: changing

You Are Artemis!

Brave, and a natural born leader. You're willing to fight for what you believe in... And willing to make tough decisions. Don't forget - the people around you have ideas too!

Your Expression Number is 1

You have the skills to be a top executive or businessperson. But first you must develop your natural capacity to be a good leader. You are truly original - with a creative approach to life and a very sharp mind. You reach for the sky, and you have the potential to reach it. Assertive and straight forward, you have little need for supervision. You are self-confident, self-reliant, and courageous in your convictions. While you sometimes fear loneliness, you prefer to be left alone. A bit self centered, you may be hard to life with at times. You also have a strong dominant streak - which can push others away at times.

Your Birthdate: July 20

You are a virtual roller coaster of emotions, and most people enjoy the ride. Your mood tends to set the tone of the room, and when you're happy, this is a good thing. When you get in a dark mood, watch out - it's very hard to get you out of it. It's sometimes hard for you to cheer up, and your gloom can be contagious. Your strength: Your warm heart Your weakness: Trouble controlling your emotions Your power color: Black Your power symbol: Musical note Your power month: February

You Are a Sentimental Gift Giver

Your gifts are warm, caring, and very personal. You know that it's the thought that counts... And you definitely put the most thought behind your gifts.

You Are a Total Brainiac

You're amazingly brilliant. Some would even say genius. You're curious, thoughtful, analytical, and confident. You take on difficult subjects because you want to... not because you have to. No field of knowledge is too complicated or intimidating for you. You've got the brains to do anything you want. It's possible you end up doing everything you want.

Your Power Bird is a Vulture

You are always changing your life and the lives of those around you. You aren't afraid to move on from what holds you back. Energetic and powerful, you have a nearly unlimited capacity for success. You know how to "go with the flow" and take advantage of what is given to you.

Your Element Is Water

A bit of a contradiction, you can seem both lighthearted and serious. That's because you're good at going with the flow - but you also are deep. Highly intuitive, you tune in to people's emotions and moods easily. You are able to tap into deep emotional connections and connect with others. You prefer a smooth, harmonious life - but you can navigate your way around waves. You have a knack for getting people to get along and making life a little more peaceful.

Jarry, your VP, always ready!

Ang baet baet talaga ng taong to. Minsan I wonder, hindi ba to naiilang saken? Hindi rin sya marunong gumawa ng é. André kasi yung name nya. Nakita ko sa friendster nya na e' yun é nya. It's Alt + 0233. Simple as that. Ang cute nya no? Hindi ko pa confirm kung may gurlfi na sya.

“Beautiful”, sabi nga ni Marian Rivera sa commercial ng Nesvita. Well, “Beautiful”, yan din ang masasabi ko sa umaga kong ito.

I literally woke up smiling. Siguro dahil nawala na yung pinakamabigat na burden ko so far. Tapos si Mudra nagluto ng ever so favorite ko na pasta, Carbonara. Isa lang ang ayaw ko. Feel ko kasi parang naiinip ako. Ewan ko kung baket. Parang atat na ata na akong umalis ng bahay. Pupunta kasi akong CSC office today to work on the website. Pero wala pa rin naman akong solid plans for it. Hindi ko pa kasi nakakausap si Paul, yung bagong PRO ng CSC, sya kasi yung in charge dun. Bukod pa dun, ayokong magwork mag-isa nanaman sa isang website. I want a team. Hello? Ako na kaya ang director ng Thomasian Project 4. Tapos, feeling ko sakin din ibibigay yung STRAW. Kaya talagang kelangan ko ng mga katulong ano. After that siguro magpaparaparadise ako. Miss ko na magsasayaw eh. Then balik España, sa Perpetual Succor Hospital, para kunin yung dirties ni Kuya.

Birthday na ni Richmond, hindi ko alam kung anong ireregalo ko. Oh well, bahala na nga. Si Manong din pala.

Eto nga pala yung tinext ko kay Jarry.

”Mtgl q nang kinikim2 to s loob q, gs2ng gs2 qng sbhn n pro nttkot aq, nung nsa btngas tyo chance n sna kaso im rily scared. Hir goes, piff, aq ang legal oficer ng SIKLAB, d AKLAS engg afili8.

I luv tp4 kya plz gv me a chance.” - Wilberta Dyosa

Pagkatapos kong maiginternet kagabi, umikot muna ako. Naglakad lakad. Pinatagal ko pa yung time na mabasa ko yung text ni Jarry. Sobrang kinakabahan talaga ako nun. Bawat hakbang ng paa ko feeling ko ganun din kabilis yung pintig ng puso ko. Bawat hakbang siguradong papalapit sa katotohanang wala akong ideya kung ano, ang reaction ni Jarry sa tinext ko sa kanya.

Nung nasa kwarto na ako, hinawakan ko ang cellphone ko. May 2 message, isa kay Jarry, isa kay Ian. Binasa ko muna yung kay Ian.

Binabati ko lahat ng nagmamahalan ngayon...

Leche si bakla pinatawa ako. Serious mode na nga eh! At finally ang text ni Jar-Jar.

” haha, nuh kb, di aq mpultkong tao, work s work, un lng, wla isyu dun bsta gwn ntn dpat ntng gwn kc yq nga nung craan dn, dnt wori, wnt take it against u, sbhn m lng pag mei prob, aq bhla.” - Jarry

Umiyak nako after ko mabasa yung message. Suminghot singhot muna ako, nagpunas punas ng luha at nagreply. Tas we exchanged texts for a while.

”Owkie, tnx ha, tnx tlga, naiiyak nko s sbrng sya! Mtgl q dn tngo un. Kya d aq mk2log dhl lng dun. Thank u, thank u!” - Wilberta Dyosa

“ wla un nuh. Wla tlga prob dun. Bsta gwn ntn lht 4 ust. Lam m b b4 fil q tlga prng ang lyo m smen. Kya tntry q ipfil syo n kasli k s csc di lang tp4.getz?.aun.bsta wg k n mg icp iba. pmlya tau dto.tulungan.” - Jarry

“ ah,un,un nga ung ayaw q, kya kgya nga ng sbe q gwn namin lahat pra mk2long s tp4.” -Jarry

“Ntps n den ang dilemma q mkkpgfocus na q s mga dpt qng gwen.

“ haha, gud 4 u, nd s lhat, cge, relax lng, tndaan mo lng lht ng cnbe q, gudluck stn, godbless, slmat dn s twala” - Jarry

“thx =D” -Wilberta Dyosa

Of all the CSC-EB, kay Jarry lang talaga ako nagtitiwala. Kahit pa sya yung huling huli kong nakilala sa kanila. Siguro kasi he made CSC office home. Kahit pa si Kuya Cachi ang una kong nakausap in person, si Jarry pa din ang nagconstitue sa isip ko na I made the right choice in accepting TP4. And I promise to give my best to this project, now with the help of my new friends.

I would like to share this wonderful blog entry from my colleague and friend. Mother Carlo Masajo. I actually consider him a mentor. Being gay and wise. Something I always dream of. And I hope that this would set a mindset to the newly elected officers.

---

To the newly elected CSC Executive Board Officers and the Central Board Members:
I send this to you, not in adversity, but in search of common ground. Last year, the university has been filled with so much political filth that breathing is such a hard task to do, at least politically.

I am no special student of the university - not like you, vested with cushioned chairs and centralized air-conditioned offices. I am very ordinary. Like 32,000+ others, I fall in line to pay fees, I write letters to get things to work, I sit down atop grass covered university lawns. During enrollment period, I am one with the students in getting my reg form, paying my tuition, and having stickons to my ID.
Last elections (actually prior), I chaired the opposition party, AKLAS, not because of heartfelt anger but of butt-pushed disgust towards the way you run things. I just can’t accept the way you have been ignoring the abuses done to several students by fellow students, faculty members, administrators, and the system itself. When you began you party in 2004, you were talking of change. Changes even. And many believed. That was years ago.

But now, you got fresh mandate. and your message of change is nothing but a promise. From your agenda in 2005 to your agenda last year, nothing happened. Maybe now is the time to deviate from your “achuchu’s” advices and actually think of students’ daily predicaments. After all, this is how schools work, and should work. FOR THE STUDENTS.
And how is that? For starters, negotiate reforms in the way students enroll. Every single semester (summer included), students like you and me fall in an endless file of fellow students to PAY. Is that how customer service works? And what does the CSC do? Nothing. I can clearly hear some of your guys telling you that it’s beyond your control. In some respects, yes. But UST adheres to a spirit of dialogue, and everything can be put on the negotiating table, with a little political will.

One more thing? Facilities. Last year I almost got excluded and expelled for complaining about a damn comfort room. Nobody wishes to admit fault. Not even you guys. You didn’t do anything about it. Too bad for a student who speaks his mind. Maybe it’s the curse of “ordinariness”. Or maybe because TYK comfort rooms are so comfortable that Beato Angelico CRs don’t matter anymore. After all, it’s us who’s gonna get the herpes. These need changing.

And lastly, change your adviser. Anti-student. Anti-student council. Anti-democracy. I have respects for this person, but as to the way this person sees a student council, I extremely and vehemently dissent.

trust me. If these are not met by elections 2009, a new wave of qualified, non-pretending, and truly serving student leaders will try their best and push their luck in a desperate attempt to change whatever litter the LTC has brought to UST. UST-CSC needs a major cleanup before 2011.

But make no mistake, I am willing to help. WE are willing to help. The 32,000 people you consider sheep are willing to work to make second home a better place. The people you sweet talk during the campaigns are way more intelligent than we are, and with them, changes can happen. Just tell us how, and what to do, e are more than willing to offer our help. Just ask.

Lovingly Yours,
JOHN CARLO MASAJO

Pauwe nako kagabi from the CSC office nung naisipan kong kumain muna sa McDo. Habang kumakain ng usual Burger Fries combo, nagple-play tong song na ito. Nagustuhan ko kagad sya. Siguro kasi pinoproblema ko yung sa CSC, then sympre ang buhay bading, malungkot talaga. Tsaka we all have that scene where we want to say to that special person that he's important but opted not to because you know your stature. Haaay anyway. Eto na po ang bago kong fav song after Nancy Jane's Love Song.




Teardrops on my guitar by Taylor Swift
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I'm needing everything that we should be
I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without

Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's just so damn funny
That I can't even see anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night

[Chorus:]

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly,

The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause

[Chorus]
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight
[Chorus]
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into..

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.

Bago ako umalis nang bahay kanina para pumunta dito sa computer shop, ni-text ko na kay Jarry yung text message na nagsasabing, member ako ng SIKLAB, the AKLAS Engineering Affiliate. Sinabi ko na lahat ng gusto kong sabihin. I'm really stressed out na kasi. Feeling ko maadmit nako sa Mental Hospital, kung san nagduduty si Whel, pag hindi ko pa ito ilalabas. Ang pakimkim ko lang pag nangyari yon, ANG CUTE NG NURSE KO!

Pag uwe ko, since 50:50 lang naman ang chances, may reply saken si Jarry regarding it. Medyo matagal pa akong uupo dito sa computer na ito, pero ngayon pa lang kinakabahan nako. 50:50 chance na sasabihin nya sa ibang EB. Pero we should change that considering that I think Jarry is loyal to LTC. Mga 80:20. I have a knack of knowing these kind of stuffs, kaya I'm very effective in a decision making body. But if you would ask me kung anong nature ng response saken ni Jarry, I'm completely Coke. Zero. Hindi ko pa kasi kilala si Jarry eh.

Ay uu nga pala. It seems ganun lang talaga kabaet si Jarry, so I take back what I said earlier. It's better we remain friends sa mga nagsasabing imove to the next level. Sayang naman ang friendship namin! Well anyway, kakakaba pa den.

Nasabi ko na kahapon kay Richmond na member ako ng AKLAS. Wala syang sinabi. He just kept silent na parang hindi nya narinig ang sinabi ko. Kinukulet kulet nya pa din ako. Sana ganun din ang gawin ni Jarry pag sinabi ko na din sa kanya. Sya lang talaga sa EB ang feeling ko kayang kong pagsabihan. Kagabi, ewan ko ang aga ko inantok. Sinimulan ko nang itype nun sa cellphone ko yung text message na nagsasabi nang sikreto ko na talaga namang nagpapastress out sa akin.

Gustong gusto ko na talagang sabihin, pero lagi akong nauunahan ng takot. Masaya nako sa ganitong set-up namin. We're all colleagues and a big happy family. Pero there is always the risk na malaman nila kung sino talaga ako. At ayoko nang manggaling pa sa iba. Gusto ko it came from me, para sigurado akong tama ang malalaman nila. I never thought I would face this kind of dilemma. Although, for most people, hindi naman probelema ang bagay na ito, pero sa akin, this is really a big deal. I would lose friends if I don't make any steps soon. Hindi ako traydor na tao at hinding hindi ako papayag na sasabihan din akong ganun.

I only want what's best for the Engineering students. Giving what is due to them is their right. I joined SIKLAB because this is one of the prime trusses of the party. Although we are affiliated with the Central Party AKLAS, we have the mindset of not following Central AKLAS's orders if it is not compatible with the Engineering needs. And If I'm asked to jumped over the fence and join other political parties, I would turn it down. I think that SIKLAB is the best thing that happened to the Engineering students. And I am confident to say so. I would use last year's Registration and election as reference. SIKLAB was the first political party in Engineering to complete the registration. We were supposed to file a case against the COMELEC Engineering regarding the flexible deadlines and unprofessional posters that they set, which was supposed to be spearheaded by me. But we decided not to get too radical because after all we were still a newly organized political party. We don't want to be tagged as radical. In relation to the flexible deadline, RESPECT, an opposing party, submitted the requirements late. But COMELEC Engineering still accepted their application stating the reason as it was not yet the deadline. It shows the unprofessionalism of both COMELEC Engineering and RESPECT. Another political party, LAKAS ng INHINYERONG TOMASINO, was not able to be recognized. They are the affiliate of the LAKAS TOMASINO COALITION. Their inability to be recognized in the last application period shows incompetency. If they really cater to Engineering needs, they should have been prepared being that this application is not taboo to them. SIKLAB rattled RESPECT by getting 7 out of the 9 positions in the Engineering Student Council. This really a big factor that sets SIKLAB apart from RESPECT. Considering that RESPECT has been existing long before SIKLAB was founded. This really shows the competence of SIKLAB. SIKLAB is the best political party for me to be affiliated to. It is the most competent, compassionate and committed political party in the Engineering Faculty. Truly the Thomasian identity. SIKLAB! Burn in the passion to serve!

I'm really proud to be chosen as the 1st Legal Officer of SIKLAB. That is why if the people from the Central Student Council would ask me to resign, I would be in an even more dilemma. Haaaay. Jar-jar.

Bonggaycious! Emphasis on "GAY"!

Naloka ako! Medyo wala kasi akong magawa dito sa CSC office, kaya medyo nagbabasa basa muna ako ng mga blogs ng iba pang mga members ng Pink Mafia. Eto yung mga gusto ko:

The Emancipation of Thadie
Cumgratulations! Wahahhahahah!

Mandaya Moore-Orlis
Langing Handa! Che!

Bananachoked
Salamat!

Aj Sottou
Tomasina ang leche!

Ilang linggo ko na rin kinikimkim ang saket sa puso ko. Hindi ko naman masabi kahit kanino. Natatakot kasi ako sa sasabihin nila. Ayoko kasing magbago yung pakikitungo nila saken dahil lang dun. Isa pa, masaya talaga ako sa company nila. It's like home. Kaya lagi akong nageeffort na pumunta sa UST araw-araw, hindi lang dahil ako ang director nang TP4, kundi dahil gusto ko din ang presence nang mga taong nasisimulan ko nang mapalagayan ng loob.

Ok, here's the issue. Member kasi ako ng opposition party ng mga nanalo this year na officers ng UST-Central Student Council, ang AKLAS. Lakas ang party nila. Well, mostly naman din ng staff ng CSC ay member ng LAKAS TOMASINO COALITION. Ang problema ko, ayokong isipin nilang spy ako ng AKLAS, dahil hindi naman talaga. Kung bigyan din naman ako ng AKLAS ng tinge of interest na magspy for them, hindi ko rin gagawin. I believe in a healthy political competition. Resorting to such treachery for me is cowardice. Magbibitiw na lang ako sa post ko sa SIKLAB, the Engineering AKLAS affiliate, as the Legal Officer. Mag-isip sila ng magandang political strategy. Very remarkable kasi ang ang pag-sweep ng LAKAS sa majority ng Councils in the University. Although hindi ko naman sinasabing mali, madalas gamitin ng LAKAS ang face value ng isang candidate. Ang kelangan ng AKLAS total make-over. Hindi spy-spy. Kahit magbitiw ako, pwede ko pa rin naman ipressure ang Engineering Student Council kahit wala akong political party. Kaya rin naman ako sumali sa SIKLAB dahil I believe in their 4 trusses. I can't deny that we really did a great job dahil nakuha namin ang 7 out of 9 positions ng ESC. Kaya alam ko ding mahihirpan din akong magbitiw, if ever.

Hindi ko rin talaga alam kung pano ko sisimulang sabihin sa kanila yun. Ang napili kong sabihan ay si Jarry. Super baet kasi ng taong yun. Ewan ko ba, bat napakahalaga na saken ni Jarry in such a short period of time, well, hindi lang naman sya, pati din naman si Richmond, napamahal na din saken. And I won't let my political affiliation affect our friendship. Gustong gusto ko nang sabihin ang lahat lahat tungkol saken sa kanila nung nasa Batangas kami. Kaso, everytime that we talk about UST politics, it always end up bashing AKLAS candidates. Nagrereact lang ako pag-SIKLAB candidates. Well, totoo naman kasi yung sinasabi ko sa kanila. Deserve ng SIKLAB ang manalo sa ESC elections. Ang naging strategy lang kasi ng RESPECT, yung isa pang political party, eh i-highlight yung standard bearer nila, na si Kat Corpuz, at siguro nagdasal din sila na sana makargo ni Kat yung mga kasama nya. Obvious naman na hindi competent yung mga kasama nya, parang mga nahila lang. Pasalamat sila at hindi pwedeng magtanong ang mga audience directly sa mic. Kung hindi sinindak ko yung mga taga-RESPECT. Pero this coming new school year, I think babalik na ang LAKAS NG INHINYERONG TOMASINO. So tatlong political parties na ang maglalaban laban sa next LOCAL STUDENT COUNCIL elections sa Engineering. LAKAS na naman ang babanggain ko, party na naman nila.

Hindi ko din naman alam ang ideals ng Central LAKAS so hindi ko din naman sila maituturing na kaaway. For me, being a person seated in power takes a lot of responsibility. Especially that the CSC scopes the whole University. It is really a BIG responsibility. Kaya I salute any officer seated whether they came from AKLAS or LAKAS. As long as they are doing their job, I won't have any problem with them Basta wag lang nila lalagyan ng pulitika ang TP4. Ako talaga ang makakabngga nila. Mukha akong matapang no? Pero sa totoo natatakot pa din ako sa sasabihin nila pag nalaman nila. Gusto ko kasi saken manggaling, so I can see the look on their faces, and they can see mine too. They'll see that I'm really sincere in the things that I told them, I will really support all of their projects, in the best I can. Sana lang talaga, wag mawala ng trust nila saken pag sinabi ko na sa kanya.

Si Mama Kate!


Napanood ko ulet yung episode ng CSI prime about dun sa doctor that performs transgender operations illegally. Nakakaloka kasi nalaman ko na si Kate Walsh yung gumanap na Mimosa. Sya yung bestfriend nung 1st victim. At! Transgender ang role nya. Her make up made her look totally like one. And her voice was really low. The 1st time I saw the episode, I never had thoughts that Mimosa was a real girl. Nakilala ko lang si Kate Walsch kasi sya yung gumanap na Doctor sa Grey's Anatomy, and now the lead of her own show, Private Practice. Galing!

Kate Walsh as Mimosa

Buong maghapon, nasa CSC office si Jarry. May dala pa nga syang suman. He offered everyone a piece. Nakakatawa nga kasi si Mon, nagpapatawa. “Kainin nyo daw yung suman ni Jarry! Malagkit at maliit!” Grabeh! Tawa ako ng tawa nun! He really made the joke sound green! Buti nalang sport si Jarry. Siguro nasanay na kay Mon. Araw-araw mo naman ba kasi kasama! Tinago ko yung dahon ng saging na pinagbalutan nung suman. Nilagay ko dun sa box ng champola chocolate na binili namin sa Mall of Asia. Sana nga hindi nya napansin yung ginawa ko. Nasa left side ko lang kasi sya nun, and he was seated facing me.

Kanina, nung nagtuturo ako ng proving of trigonometric identities, napansin kong pinapanood ako ni Jarry. Nandun sya sa labas malapit sa pinto ng room, nakatingin... well... saken. Pero ayokong mag-assume, siguro natutuwa lang sya kung pano ako magturo, nakangiti kasi sya eh.

After nung class ko with TP4, bumalik ako sa CSC office para makita ulet si Jarry. Chos! Hindi naman! Bumalik din ako para tumulong dun sa paggawa nung surprise exam namin sa mga bata bukas. Nakipagkwentuhan ako kay Rowie, yung staff ng CSC na naassign magtype ng mga exams. So habang tinatype nya yung English kwento galore ako sa kanya, kahit first time ko lang sya nameet! Feeling close ako! Wahahahah! During that time meron syang katabing boylalou na natutulog. Pinaglaruan ni Cheska at ni Jarry yung kawawang sleeping boylalou. Tapos tinanong ako ni Jarry, kung tapos na yung sa mga bata. As usual my usual reply, “Oo.” Eh, nagkataong magsisix pm na kelangan na ni Rowie umuwi. Pinaphotocopy nya yung manual, kasi hindi daw nya pwedeng iwan. Sabi ko tutulong na ako. Bumalik si Rowie binigay sken yung photocopy ng Biology exam na kelangan kong itranscribe sa computer. Nung umalis si Rowie, sakto naman yung pagbalik ni Jarry with Cheska. Siguro it was around 6:30 pm nung sinabi ni Jarry saken. “Wilbert, kung gusto mo na umuwi ok lang, ako na tatapos nyan.” KILIG EVER! WAHAHAHAHAHA! Tumanggi nga lang ako. Kasi wala naman akong gagawin eh.

Ang sweet talaga ni Jarry! Haaay!

Ate Grace with the Little Debutante, Nicole

Ang pamangkin kong si Nicole, na anak ng kaisa-isahang ate ko ay 7 eyars old na nung May 10, 2008. On that same day, ginanap ang 7th birthday party nya sa covered court ng Holy Child Catholic School (Alma Mater namin parepareho!). Well anyway, ako yung Emcee nun. Kaso yung crowd hindi naman nakikinig. Hindi ko naman sila masisi, because after all, it's a children's party!

Even though we had a rough night, dahil andming aberyang nangyari. Si Nica ayaw magsmile. Ang gugulo ng mga bata. Yung caterer nalate, yung food nagkulang. Yung ibang mga participants sa programme, nagpapasaway, nagpalate! Kainis! Well anyaway ta least tapos na yun. OK na yun. Basta ako tapos na yung gawain ko dun.

Si Wilberta, ang Dyosa!

Ay nako 1st time ko nagalit sa klase ko. Ang ingay ingay kasi. Sino ba naman bang gaganahan magturo nun? Bukod pa dun, yung mga boys hindi pa gumagawa ng SW. Ano feeling nila ha? Pinaderive ko kasi yung equation ng adiabatic process ng thermodynamics. Last week tinuro ko lahat ng basics ng Algebra na gagamitin sa equation. Lahat ng earlier lessons ko was made to ready them dun sa derivation ng formula na yun. Bonus pa nga nilagay ko pa sa left side nung board yung mga properties ng Algebra na gagamitin nila. Aba ang mga boys walang tinag nakatungaga! Eto ang script ko sa kanila:

”Nakakainis na kayo ah! Ang ingay ingay nyo! Hindi kayo gumagawa ng seatwork! Anong akala nyo ha?! Ako ang magdedecide kung makakapag-USTET kayo o hinde! Ako ang Director ng TP4 kayo ako ang may say! Hindi kayo matutulungan ng CSC dahil ako ang kakausap sa OSA! Kung ganyan din naman pala ang ugali nyo, you don’t deserve to be a Thomasian! Dun nyo sa PLM ikalat yang kabastusan nyo sa teacher!”

In all my teaching experience sa TP4, un pa lang talaga ang first time na nagalit ako. I can say that I’m a really cool teacher, and many will be willing to testify for it. Ewan ko bas a batch nay un. Pero I’m sure to trim them down. Mabibigay ako ng surprise exam that will stip them of their happiness! Ha! Akala nila ah!

Well anyway gutso ko yung lessons namin sa Algebra, kasi Word Problems na kami. Dun ko na malalaman kung sino talaga yung nag-iisip. Nag-bigay din kasi ako ng mental exercise sa kanila. Wala din nakasagot. Ang tanong kasi. The congruent sides of a isosceles triangle is 10 cm, the third side is 12 cm. What is the measure of the side of the largest square that is inscribed within the triangle?

Ang sabi naman kasi nila eh nakapag-geometry naman sila. So alam ko alam nila yung mga postulates and properties regarding the triangle. Ewan ko din kung baket hindi nila nasagot yung tanong. Ganito lang nman kasimple yun.



The object is to be drawn just like the one above. The side of the square inside the triangle is unknown and is represented as x. If I bisect the base, it will result to having two right triangles. Using part of the triangle, we can solve for the height of the triangle using the Pythagorean Theorem. 102 = h2 + 62. Observe that the x that is parallel to the base. It’s now coincides with both the congruent sides. Using the property of triangles we can conclude that they are similar triangles.

Reason: The three angles of both triangles are congruent.
Proof:
1) The angle at the top is congruent to itself by the reflexive postulate.
2) They are right triangles therefore they both have 90 degree angles.
3) The angles beside the 90 degree angles of both triangles are congruent by using the property of parallel lines. Alternate interior angles are congruent.

Because they are similar triangles, we can apply ratio and proportion.
Base of big triangle/height of big triangle = base of small triangle/height of small triangle

6 / 8 = 8-x / x/2

Solve for x:

x = 2.9 ~ 3 cm

Sisiw diba? Ewan ko ba! Hindi kasi namin finilter yun eh. Si Kuya Ney kasi sabi nya tanggapin na lahat. Well, ififilter ko sila bago magexam. Tignan lang naten.

Reaction about the book…
It was a first for me to read a book by John Grisham. And his writing style really blew me away. In his book, “The Street Lawyer” the issue about homelessness was very clearly defined as the root of all problems in an area. I would certainly agree with the scenarios in the book, wherein the homeless people are the ones mugging the denizens of a city, that the homeless are desperate, and the homeless are treated as if they are not human, therefore they don’t have rights. All of these scenarios are clearly depicted in the book. And I hope that the legislators in our country will really look up to this as a serious matter.

While reading the book…
I was really trying my best not to read that fast. In my actual speed of 4 lines per second, it was really hard for me to do it. But in the end, I was able to finish the book in 8 hours. And in those hours, I was really absorbed in the issues that the book was trying to expose. Maybe because I want to enter law school in the near future, that is why I was really interested to read it. Although that is not until I finish my undergraduate course. =D

Message…
Read the book! It is really good! And I am buying a new copy so I can give it out as a gift to that guy that I want to know better. Nyehhehehhe!

Like na like ko talaga si Vincent ng Ghostfisghter. Honestly nung bata ako, nagstastanding ovation ako pag nakatopless sya. Kahit na maliit sya, feeling ko naman matulis eh. Nakakaloka! Nakakapaglaway kasi yung cuteness nya, tsaka yung body nya.

kahapon may umuwing kamag-anak ko from abroad. Syempre alam mo na ibig sabihin nun! Chocolates! Hindi naman ako maselan sa ganun. Kahit ano lang na pasakubong ok na sken. Pero natuwa ako aksi naalaala ng kamag-anak ko na yun na Reese's peanut buttercup ang favorite chocolate ko. Yes! Calories nanaman! Wahahahaha!

Wilberta: Ang Dyosa ng Underpass
Kakatapos ko lang manggaling sa SM Manila. Alam nyo na para para. Actually papunta pa lang ako sa SM Manila, nagpaparamdam na ang kalangitan na uulan sya. Nagparapara ako. Ang sabi ko pag uuwi nako at uulan bibili ako ng mas marami pang tokens! Member kasi ako ng Worlds of Fun kaya may mga freebies pag bumili ng marami. Eh nung dumungaw ako at hindi naman umulan, nagsimula nako maglakad pauwi.
Nung nasa may tapat nako ng UDM, ayan na umabon na. At hindi lang basta ambon, super lalaki nung bagsak eh. Sa may Lawton may underpass din. Sa tumawid ako using the under pass. Nung lumabas ako. Ayan na super lakas na ng ulan. Nakapunta pa ako dun sa kabilang underpass yung medyo malapit dun sa canteen ng mga schools inside intramuros. Dun nako nagpatila nang ulan.

Hindi nagtagal. May umakyat sa hagdan. Isang batang nakauniform, nakatsinelas, tapos may hawak na plastic. In my examination, yung black shoes nya yung nasa loob ng plastic. Infairness cute sya! Natempt nga ako bigyan sya ng calling card ang cutie. Kaso pinipigilan ko sarili ko kasi parang ang bata pa nya. Nagtanong pa nga sya sken. San daw yung papuntang SM. Sabi ko. Any jeep na papunta sa direction na yun. Habang tinuturo yung direksyon. Gusto ko na nga syang sabihan ng "wag ka munang umalis, patilain mo na ung ulan. Dito ka sa tabi ko kwentuhan tayo" Pero hindi ko na ni-try kasi mukhang in a hurry si kiddo. In the end umalis din si cutie. Tumawid sa kabila. Dun ata sumakay.

Naghintay pa ako ng kaunti. Tas may dumating na mag-anak. Nagstruggle sila sa direction. So tinulangan ko sila. Nagtuturuan kasi sila. Tinanong ko kung san ba sila papunta. Ang sabi nila sa Cavite daw. Sa Lawton po ba kyo pupunta? Sa sakayan ng bus? Ang reply nila, FX daw ang sasakyan nila. Ay sabi ko hindi ko alam yun. Tinanong nila ako kung san yung park and ride. Sabi ko, dun po sa kabila may isa pang underpass tawirin nyo po yun un na yun. Ayun umalis sila, sinugod nila ang ulan. Grabeh! Dyosa talaga ako! Underpass!

Resident Flood
Dahil sa sobrang lakas ng ulan, nagkaron ng flash flood. Para nga akong nasa Resident Evil World, yung mga Zombies yung flood. Diba yung Zombies may virus? yung Baha din naman meron ah! syempre, para makaiwas sa flood, maraming techniques ang dapat gamitin!
Ang yakap-the-poste no jutsu

-para hindi ka malaglag sa baha, to have support

Ang talon-talon-eklavou no jutsu

-alam mo na para hindi mabasa

Ang tingkayad-para-hindi-pasukan-ng-baha-ang-sapatos no jutsu

-kelangan pa ba iexplain yan?

Ang flylalou-sa-kabilang-sidewalk no jutsu

-syempre hindi lang naman sa isang side lagi yung baha no. kaya kelangn mo magpalipatlipat.

Unfortunately nung nasa may plaza Morga ako, natrap ako. Kahit san ako tumingin baha. Wala akong mapuntahan. hanggang sa magdecide ako na tawirin ang baha at makarating sa Shell Station. Nag-tingkayad-para-hindi-pasukan-ng-baha-ang-sapatos no jutsu ako kaso hindi ko natantsa yung baha. Pumasok sa sapatos ko! Para akong napoison! Kunwari, nanghihina ako, urgh urgh! Para nga akong tanga gumagwa ako ng mga sounds na ganun habang naglalakad, tapos tumatawa pa magisa.

Pagkauwi ko sa house, naginit ako ng tubig. Then nilagay sa timba ang tubig nilagyan ng alcohol, and presto, ang cleansing foot spa! Ang saya ng araw ko!

Grabeh! Kanina naranasan ko yung naranasan ng mga professors ko. Yung maubusan ng ink yung marker mo. Grabeh, super taranta ako. Kasi late na kami sa lesson, tapos ubos na lahat yung ink nung mga marker na nandun. Wala na akong choice kundi maghanap ng bago.
Plan A:
Bumaba ako sa Central Student Council Office para maghanap. Hinawakan ko ang doorknob. Hala! Hindi ko maigalaw! LOCKED! Shet! Patay! Ano na gagawin ko!

Plan B:
Si Jarry! sigaw ng isip ko! Buti nalang dala ko yung cellphone ko. Pero nahihiya ako eh. Pero tinext ko na rin si Jarry.
"Malapit ka lang ba sa TYK? I need help" text ko.
"Dito lang ako sa Health Service, baket?"
"May supplies ba ng marker sa office? we just ran out of ink."
"Ay wala, pero nasa SM sina Mon, papabili ako?"
"Ok thanks."

Nung hinintay ko sina Mon na makabalik, shortly after my last text kay Jarry, nakita ko sina Mon at Rexa pabalik ng building. Tanong ko kagad,
"May extra money ba kayo dyan"
"Wala na eh, Baket?"
"Naubusan na kasi kame ng ink sa mga marker."
"Meron ako."
"yung blue?"
"Oo, nadala ko."

With that bumalik na ako sa klase ko.

Nagstart nako maglesson sa Algebra. Kaso, 1st problem pa lang, nawala na yung ink nung marker. Whel and Shelby pa naman yung question nun. *peace Whel!*

Plan C:
Talagang pinagpilitan ko talaga yung blue marker. Kahit na nagpaparinig na yung mga bata na mag-ambag-ambag. Ayoko nga. Sabi ko sa parents nung mga bata nung Saturday, hindi kami kukuha ng pera sa mga bata. Eh kasi naman binigay ko yung pera ko kay Sir Rani, kaya wala akong pera.

Plan D:
Bumaba ako ulet. Nakalock nanaman yung CSC office wala nanaman sina Rexa and Mon. Nakita ko yung desk ni Kuya guard. May marker! Kaso nahihiya ako. Kahit lagi kaming nag-uusap ni kuya nakakahiya pa din hiramin yun.

Plan E:
Tinext ko ulet si Jarry.
"Naggive up na saken yung Marker T_T"
"Ganun?"
"Yep"
"Sige lalabas nako ako na bibili" at that moment kinilig talaga ako!
"Ok, thanks ah"

Bumalik ako sa classroom. Dun ko na hinintay si Jarry. After siguro, fifteen minutes dumating na sya. Hindi ko pinahalata sa mga bata na super kilig talaga ako. Lalo na nung nakita ko yung mukha nya. Shet! Parang gusto ko talagang maghihiyaw! Pero syempre, poised pa din inabot ko yung plastic na inaabot ni Jarry.
"thank you ah..."
And then he gave a nod and went on his way.

Ako naman bumalik na sa pagtuturo. Pero feel na fell ko pa din talaga yung kilig habang nagtuturo ako! =D

I can say that I am a person of strong personality. I am always counted to be responsible. Thus, I am always the leader. As a leader, I am tasked to decide on matters that affect the organization or the group. But sometimes, being the one in charge, is really tiring and very stressful. Sometimes, I wish that there would come a day that a person will command me, and I would let go of what I am doing, or what I am supposed to do, and follow orders with no buts. Haaay. I don't need a partner. I need a person.

Lagyan nga yan ng dialogue

The following article is from pep.ph

Asia's Songbird Regine Velasquez signed a two-year exclusive contract with GMA-7 last Monday, May 5, making her a certified Kapuso star.



Present during the contract-signing were Regine's manager and sister Cacai Valasquez-Mitra and the following GMA-7 executives: Gilberto R. Duavit Jr., Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer; Wilma V. Galvante, Senior Vice-President for Entertainment TV; and Darling de Jesus, Assistant Vice-President for Magazines, Musicals, Variety, and Specials.



Aside from the Sunday musical variety show SOP, Regine has also started taping for the Pinoy version of the Koreanovela My Name is Kim Sam Soon and her solo musical show titled Songbird. In Kim Sam Soon, the singer-actress will be paired for the first time with Mark Anthony Fernandez and Wendell Ramos.



Earlier this year, Regine almost transferred to ABS-CBN after being considered to play the lead role in the Pinoy version of the Colombian telenovela Betty La Fea. In the end, the Asia's Songbird opted to stay in the Kapuso Network.

Tama ang desisyon mo mama Reg! Kapuso tayo!

Hindi ko makalimutan si Jarry. Lagi ko siyang iniisip. As in. Lagi. Kanina, nung nagtuturo ako ng System of Linear Equations, mali mali na yung nasasabi ko. Nung nagtuturo ako ng Laws of motion nakalimutan ko yung first law kasi puro Jarry yung nagreresound sa utak ko. Buti na nga lang ay hindi ako nadudulas at nasasabi yung pangalan nya. Tapos habang nagtatype ako kanina sa CSC office dumating sya. Bukod kay Mon, sya lang talaga yung nakakausap ko. Tsaka sya lagi yung 1st na kumakausap sa akin. Lagi nyang tinatanong kung kamusta yung TP4. "OK naman, andami naming natackle kanina". Kung alam lang nya, kanina ko pa sya iniisip. Nung umalis ako sa CSC office boses nya yung huling boses na narinig ko. "Salamat!" narinig ko bago magsara yung pinto ng CSC office.

Last weekend I can say I watched 3 great films. What luck!

The Divine Secrets of the Ya-ya Sisterhood
I really love this movie, siguro kasi, it's about family and friendship. Hindi ko rin kasi maimagine na galit ako sa mom ko or vice versa. Kaya this movie really gave me a picture of how astray I will be if that would become a reality. Bukod pa dun, it rosters the veteran actresses Maggie Smith (Professor Mc Gonagal) and Sandra Bullock. The story is really good. I was so touched by Vi-vi's life. Inspite of the hardships that she endured during her lifetime, she managed to make everything right even at her old age. Love it!




Can't Hardly Wait
Wala akong masabi kundi this is such a teen flick! Sobra! Yung time frame lang nung movie is 1 and a half days. 1 day morning, graduation, 1 day evening Grad party, 2nd day morning, Lead character Preston, leaves for a workshop. I was surprised to see many familiar faces. Especially that this movie was filmed at the time that I don't care about foreign films. Like Jennifer Love Hewitt (Singer of Barenaked, Lead Actress in the movies: If Only, I know What you did this Summer and its sequel), Melissa Joan Heart (Sabrina the Teenage Witch), Seth Green (Scott Evil in the Austin Powers movies), Selma Blair (From Cruel intentions, and Legally Blonde), Jerry O'Connell (tomcats and Detective William Hoyt from Crossing Jordan) and Charlie Korsmo (Jack from Hook). The story showcases the high school life of an American teen.


Frailty
Lokang loka ako sa movie na ito. If God would give you a message to kill persons, would you do it? I mean, literally, kill persons? The odd thing though, the scene when the father touches the devil and scenes of their evil doings are shown, is just plain brutal. Grabeh! ganun ba sa America, papatay ng bata? papatayin yung sariling nanay, tapos maglalagay ng pic nya kasama sya dun sa pic at pulis pa sya? Grabeh it's plain brutal. Bukod pa sa ang twist sa dulo nakakamatay sa hilo! papaikutin talaga ang mundo mo! Ang ayoko lang din dun, is the thought that you're going to kill your brother. Haaay. hindi ko kaya yun. Pero kahit ganun yung theme. I really loved it!
