Malungkot... At nagluto ulet ng tuna pesto na niluto ko nung birthday ni Dadee. Gusto ko talagang magluto. Nagmana ako sa nanay ko na masarap magluto. Normally nagluluto ako para sa mga taong mahalaga saken o kaya walang nagluto ng ulam sa bahay. Pero lagi akong nagluluto pag nalulungkot ako. Ewan ko, parang I feel relieved kasi alam ko pag may kumain ng niluto ko alam kong masasayahan sila dun. Kaya gusto kong magluto ng magluto para maibsan yung kalungkutan sa puso ko!

Tapos nah. Finalé na yun. Hindi ko na babawiin yung naging desisyon ko. Kahit anong laban ko hindi ako mananalo. Magiging pabigat lang lalo yun sa puso ko. Mabuti na tong ganto at sa simula pa lang ng klase nangyari to. Pwede pa ko makapag-charge para maayos yung buhay ko at maging on track sa plano kong pag-aayos ng grades ko. Katulad nga ng sabi ko, "It's not my loss, it's theirs!"

Wilberchie... FIGHTING!!!

By subject nalang yung pagkwento ko para mas madali.

Arnis. Ay sa wakas! Nakakuha na rin ako ng PE na gusto ko! buti nalang at hindi ako nagkukuha ng PE nung una kasi hindi ko talga gusto yung mga natitirang PE date! Anyway, hindi rin naman ako nakapasok nung 1st day dahil nabasa ako sa lakas ng ulan at wala akong dalang payong. Pumunta nalang akong CSC office para magpalit ng uniform since basa na yung uniform ko.

Chemical Engineering Laboratory. Ang aga dumating ng mga classmates ko pero into no avail, wala rin dumating na prof. Kamusta naman yun diba? Anyway, dito sa subject na ito, matutunan namin gumamit first hand ng mga Separation apparatuses and instruments.

Particulate Technology. Si Ma'am Evie ulet. Hindi nako natatakot kasi nasa harap na yung upuan ko. Tsaka as promised mag-aaral ako mabuti for this year. Kaya magpapakabibo ever ako sa classes. Dito naman sa subject na ito, puro physical separation ang matutunan na napansin ko eh puro pang Environmental Engineering yung application. Like filtration, screening, etc. SO puro dust yung kalaban dito. Not very intimidating.

Separation Principles. So parang etong part ng separation principles na eto eh puro mass transfer. Big time ang prof ko dito. Si Prof. Alberto Laurito. Former Dean of UST Faculty of Engineering, and the immediate past president of the Philippine Institute of Chemical Engineers (PIChE). Asawa din sya yung prof ko sa Particulate Technology. Topics include: Gas Absorption, Leaching, Stripping, Adsorption. Goodluck parang Mega Stoich! Ay, Si Ma'am Glaiza Tanguilan yung prof namin sa Computation Lab! See below for description nya.

Chemical Reaction Kinetics and Engineering. Si Dean Abet ulet yung prof ko dito. Mukhang masaya sya! Puro rates yung pag-aaralan namin. Yung Reaction equations para makapagdesign ng isang Reactor that will be used sa Plant design subject namin the following semester. Kelangan makinig dito. May Kinetics yung thesis namin eh!

Taxation and Agrarian Reform. Ang prof ko dito ayon sa joke ni Sir Butch ay si 1st Ms. Faculty of Engineering, si Ms. Edna Kinilitan. Mukha namang magaling si Ma'am. Expected grade = 1.00. You know naman that I love my law subjects.

Fuel Technology. Si Engr. Glaiza Tanguilan ang prof ko dito. Big time din sya. Graduate ng UST ChE ng 2008. Top 9 sa April 2009 ChE Board exams. Bongga diba? Parang Stoich lang din "daw" pero syempre mas mahirap kasi hello. Iba na yung name nya. Tsaka parang napansin ko, people tend to generalize the word Fuel to gasoline or any combustible material. But in truth the word fuel really means energy giving substance.

Basic Electronics. From ECE yung prof namin dito, na hindi naman dumating kahapon. Nagwowonder tuloy kami kung sino sya. Kasi yung sa other section eh dumating at naglesson na daw. Balak ko pa naman sanang ilipat dun yung BE ko. Eh nakapag-lesson na eh. wag nah.

Engineering Management. Wala. Wala akong masabi kundi, wala sya, hindi sya dumating.

infairness naman saken, nagnonotes ako ah. Which I don't normally do. Ngayon I'll se eto it na perfect ang attendance ko. Watch out! See me fulfill my promise!

In fairness!!! I love this song and video! It's so cool! Ang sarap gawing pangshowdown! Naloka loka pa ako nung nakita ko ang bruhang ito!


Sandara Park

Aba! Nadadaan talaga ang talent sa hardwork ano. Well in any case, happy na rin ako para sa kanya at sumikat na sya sa kanyang home country na South Korea. Infairness kasi, super sikat na yan ngayon sa Korea!

Pero hindi si Sandara ang favorite member ko ng 2NE1. Si bunny girl!


Ang pretty nya kasi at gusto ko yung boses nya. Girl na girl! Love it! =D

Ayan may bago nanaman akong danc emusic sa aking cellphone! Kaya hindi ako makapag-emo eh! puro dance songs yung sa cellphone ko!

May video pala yung nagDance Revo ako nun sa MOA. Nivideo pala nung mga kasama ko. Eto sya. Watch nyo. Makakakita kayo ng baklang sumasayaw habang naglalaro ng Dance Revo! Naks!

Matagal na din ako hindi nagdadance machine. At kelangan na talaga yun para medyo pumayat nako. Nako pag nagkatime talaga! Araw araw is Parapara Day!

I'm the one who created this illusion. And now I'm destroying it. I've started to burn it in its funeral pyre and it won't be long before the fire totally succumbs this illusion to ashes. I have made so many sacrifices. I have made so many efforts. I've given so much already but it seems that these are still not enough.

I'm just tired. I'm just SO TIRED. I'm tired of competing and fighting for my place. I'm fed up of trying to win you. I'm fed up of giving you everything. I'm fed up of understanding our relationship. I'm so FED UP! FED! UP!

I am now looking away, for myself. I'm walking, bit by bit, these steps of redemption. Redemption that will secure my heart in a safe place. A place where this heart is guarded and well taken care of. Care that you were selfish to give this passed few weeks. Weeks that have tormented me, given me pain. Pain that squeezed these tears that are falling from my eyes. Eyes that are looking away this very moment, walking away...

Slowly melting... Slowly... Defenses Down... Slowly... Slowly... tears... your face fading... blurring... and passion... disappearing... Goodbye...

Katrina Halili

May returning role na si Katrina after the very much huge scandal surrounding her and Hayden Kho. Sya ang gaganap na Fedra sa next soap ng Kapuso ang Rosalinda. Exciting kasi talaga namang maganda yung gumanap na Fedra sa original. At makikita natin ang attack ni Katrina Halili sa kanyang role dahil syempre sigurado makukumpara yung role niya bilang Angelica sa Marimar. Take note: Parehong Thalia original ang mga soap na ito at sya ang gaganap na kontrabida sa parehong show. Si Angelica kasi mayaman na siya talaga, at si Fedra naman, mahirap tas yayaman dahil napangasawa nya si Fernando Jose nung inakala nilang namatay na si Rosalinda. Tingnan na lang naten.

Marian Rivera

Wala nang Captain Barbell! Hindi na tuloy ang Captain Barbell meets Darna dahil si Marian Rivera lang ang nitetelevise na gaganap sa fantaserye. No question naman ako kung baket si Marian ang pinili dahil alam kong isa syang Kapuso royalty. Nakakaexcite din kung sino yung mga gaganap na kontrabida dahil mga classic kontrabidas yung makakalaban nya: Babaeng Lawin, Babaeng Tuod, babaeng Linta, at ang Babaeng Ahas! Wow Femme Fatale pala ang theme ng show na ito! I love it! Let us show that ungrateful bitch that Darna can exist without her! Che!

Richard Gutierrez

After ng Zorro, ang gagawing soap ni Papa Chard is Full House. Ito ay remake mula sa isang Koreanovela original. Ummm, nagwonder ako kung baket sya yung napili. Pero if you look at it closely may similarities din sila ni "Justin". Matineé idol si Justin. Mayaman. Sikat. Gwapo (si Papa Chard). Well let's see how Papa CHard will do sa comedy. Comedy-drama ito kaya machachallenge ang acting ni Papa Chard dahil this is relatively new for his career. Btw, yung babae na naglalakad as Jessie feeling ko si Rhian Ramos pa rin yun. Sana iba naman.

I was browsing my friends' blogsites when I stumbled this entry of Joeward about CONASS. Honestly, JOeward is one of those people that I would think of writing about it. Well, I know Joey is more of the F's of life. Fun, Fashion, and Fierce! But I am very happy that he did made a statement about CONASS, and I think every Filipino should have a stand pro or against CONASS because we, the Filipino citizens, will be the one's affected by this gigantic change.

Wilberchie's statment.
I too am against CONASS. Number 1: because it was passed in a very non-traditional way, by just "ayes" and "neys". Palakasan lang ng sigaw! In this manner, the decision lies solely in the discretion of the House Speaker: which we all know is pro administration. This is highly unethical! Hindi na uso yan! We are civilized people that should be practicing democracy! It's no wonder that they are very much enthusiastic about amending our constitution! Because in the first place, they don't respect democracy at all! Kung palakasan lang ng boses ang gusto nyo? Pumunta kayo sa kalye namin sa Pitong Gatang at pasigawin natin ang sang kabaklaan sa kalye namen!

Number 2: because people are not aware what would happen after the amendment has been done. They don;t even know what parliamentary is! The media should explain what are the changes that will be made if it was to be changed to parliamentary or to Federal system of government. They should now that when we have a Parliamentary system, we will not elect the president anymore. This "President" is just an appointee whose main job is just to represent the country in any affairs. But the real person who shall be running the country is called a Prime Minister, and is only elected through the "Assembly" by the Assemblymen who are elected by the masses. The media should also give information what are the pros and cons of a Parliament and a federal system. I think that this is part of their social responsibility that the masses should be well informed. It's no use making a survey if the people are pro or against CONASS, they don't exactly know what it is so their comments are worthless. Instead of doing an effort of doing a survey about what the people what, it is better to inform them first, after all, we are not the 100% Literacy type.

I'm one with the opposition representatives in shouting that this is a disgrace to Philippine Congress! Stop this tyranny! Stop this disrespect to democracy! May you be reminded that the people voted you to that seat for you to give their voice and not to protect your own interests!

I haven't anything from that religious sector that I am always pointing out. You see, this is the issue that they should be dealing with. This disrespect to democracy is the issue that they should be addressing and not the minuscule issue of Oil Depots. Now this is a social issue of a national scale! This is your time to shine! This is the time to voice out your concern!

Malapet na ang pasukan, masusubukan nanaman ang skills ko sa time management! Hala! ilatag na ang mga dapat gawen!

Thomasian Project 4. Ako pa rin ang project director! BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! Evil laugh dahil ako pa din! Isang masigabong palakpakan dahil ako pa den! At ngayon matutupad ko na yung mga binabalak ko nung isang taon. This year, we will adopt two new public schools. We will also have a minimum of 15 students per school which gives us 45 all in all and 5 wild card that can be selected from the 3 beneficiary schools. Sana nga lang eh mas marami pa ang makapasok at hindi na maging tamad yung ibang students. Meron kasing nakakapasa ng UST pero hindi pumasok. Mas preferred nila yung PLM. Nako, this time around, magiging strict talaga ako. Pag mag-pi-PLM wag na denied na ang application mo! This year gusto ko din magkaron kami ng field trip sa isang science museum para talagang educational. And finally, ngayon magkakaron na ng TP4 Academic Support program para dun sa mga scholars na ng UST para hindi sila mawala sa scholarship.

Executive Assitant to the Central Student Council Auditor. I am one of those veteran staff who will not do anything outside the scope of my position. Kung EA lang ako. Trabahong pang EA lang ang gagawin ko. Hindi ako gagawa ng letter for any officer unless it is a matter of urgency. EA lang ako. hindi ako EC (Executive Corrdinator).

SIKLAB Legal Officer Emeritus. For the 3rd time in a row, ako pa rin po ang Legal officer ng Engineeirng based political party, SIKLAB. Pero this time, magtetrain nako ng papalit saken since gragraduweyt nako. Pero gagawin ko pa rin ang lahat ng makakaya ko para pahirapan ang kabilang partido, isulong ang karapatang ng estudyanteng inhinyero, at guluhin ang buhay ng COMELEC Eng'g! Nyahahahah! Sarap maging Legal! Madugo!

ChES Grievance Committee Chair. Actually tinatamad nako sa post na ito. gusto ko na ngang magresign. but that would not be a good example to my subordinates. Kaya hangga't kaya ko, I'll stay in this position. Nakakatamad pa din kahit na alam ko si Ma'am Berna yung pumalit kay Mama D bilang Senior Adviser ng Chemical Engineering Society. Nakakatamad yun lang. Hindi pa ako inaupdate ng OIC namen. Eh ako pa naman gusto kong kinukulet ako para gumalaw.

Chemical Change!. Let the fire burn!!! Adding phosphorus to this fire shall give you flare! Magningas ka apoy na nagpapabago sa nakagisnan! Apoy na babago sa lahat! Flame! the prime initiator of chemical Change! Ignite! Wahahhahah! I am burning with passion!

Yung picture sa taas, yan yung former cast. Nasabi ko sa previous blogs ko na I really like this youth oriented show of TV5. Well bagong season na sya, marami nang naalis at marami rin ang dumagdag. At mas maganda pa dun, medyo gumganda na yung quality ng acting compared from before. Yun nga lang, nawala na totally yung LIPGLOSS Website. Hango kasi to dun sa hit American TV show n Gossip Girl. Eh diba dun sa Gossip Girl sa website nalalaman yung mga nangyayari dun sa upper eastsiders?

Marami nang nawala sa Lipgloss cast considering na pang-apat na season palang nang show. No matter what the reasons are as long as maganda naman yung story sige lang tuloy lang nila. Recall naten yung cast na nawala.

* Saab Magalona as Meg Madrigal
* Mikee Lee as Maui Amor
* Sam Concepcion as Kyle Ponce
* Cheska Ortega as Ziggy Borja
* Miki Hahn as Stephanie "Steph" Garces
* Princess Ryan as Sarah Madison
* Ejay Falcon as Santi/Santino
* Rodjun Cruz as Jake Perez
* Fred Payawan as Jiggo Perez
* Niña Jose as Camille Borromeo

It's either namatay sila or simply bigla nalang nawala. Ewan ko din.

Ngayon sa bagong season pumasok ang bagong cast.

* Lovi Poe as Princess Ava/Sophia
* Rhem Escano as Jana/Lisa
* Regine Angeles as Charlene
* Benj Besa as Knoxx
* Enz Guazon as Chase
* Cherry Ann Kubota as Allona

Isa pa sa reason ko kung baket ko pinapanood ang show na ito ay dahil sa hot bodies! Nyeta! iba yung approach ng youth oriented show na ito. Hindi na sya katulad dati ng teenybopper. It is a more mature attack kaya mas gusto ko sya. In the age of male vanity and perennial female insecurities, dapat lang talaga ganto yung gawing attack para maging iba naman!

Ang mga HOT boys ng Lipgloss:

From left: Kevin Lapeña, Benj Besa, Enz Guazon, Nico Ibaviosa, Neil Coleta, Zyrus Dezamparado

Isama nyo na rin si Jose Mari played by Carlo Guevarra. Kaso wala sya dyan eh. Hot din yung lokong yun. Ay! Pretty yung gurl na Regine Angeles ah! Ang sa nabasa ko kasama sya ni Carlo Guevarra sa nanalo sa Be Bench before. Infairness pretty talaga ang bilat! Like ko yung character nya na bitchy! Grabeh bagay sa kanya!

A war against the oil depots in Pandacan, Manila has been waging for weeks now. This is about Draft Ordinance 7177 amending Ordinance 8027. Ordinance 8027 changes Pandacan and Sta. Ana areas from industrial to commercial zones. This will force the industrial companies in the said areas to shutdown their facility or relocate to another place. This is amended by Draft Ordinance 7177, which allows the industrial facilities to remain in their present location.

A lot of people/groups/institutions expressed their violent sentiments when Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim signed Ordinance 7177. Issues such as pollution, health effects, and security reasons where aired. I recall that at first, Mayor Lim was reluctant to sign the said ordinance. Considering that the passing of the ordinance made such a ruckus. But in the end, Mayor Lim signed the ordinance even stating that he shall sign the ordinance because the people are asking him to do so.

There are many factors that should be considered 1st before making a comment on this issue. I will admit that as of now I don't have full understanding of this issue. But as a matter of argument. I would like to stress some of my points.

In the issue of environmental concern, I think the reason is pretty lame. People are citing the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act. But do they know that there are provisions in the act the permits industries to discharge their effluents to the surroundings provided that the effluent and the gas emission is in the regulated quality? As a Chemical Engineering student, I had a course in Environmental Science and Engineering. I know for a fact that there are personnel called as Pollution Control Officer in every Industry in the country. They are the ones in charge of treating their wastes so that they become more acceptable for discharge to the environment. It is against environmental laws if any industry would discharge effluents and smoke outside of the regulated quality. I think that it is better to just pressure all the industries in the Industrial zone, most especially the Big three, to put an effort in treating their wastewater and smoke before discharging them to the surroundings.

Morality. It is a known fact that the industrial zone has been there for a long time, they have institutionalize themselves in that area. Forcing them to relocate to another area is not only inhumane but unjust. I'll admit that I am not a suitable person to speak of morality but I would like to point out the Church (Catholic) shouldn't use the faith the people working in the industries just to bring them down. I find it very unethical and to some extent immoral. The Church should not interfere with this kind of problems because the people concerned are having dilemma. Are they going to follow the will of God (or some people saying to be man of God when in truth they are not) or are they going to save themselves from starvation?

Health Reasons. It was a risk living there in the vicinity. It is one of the negative effect in living near industrialized zones. I don't have a strong stand with regards with this issue but I believe that the government whether local or national should pass law that will give a minimum perimeter of which residential areas should be far away from industries. Hear me? Councilors? Senators? Congressmen?

Commercial. The relocation of the Oil Depots will have a strong impact in fuel oil prices. First, let us discuss what is an Oil Depot for? An Oil Depot is an industrial facility for storing petrochemical products. They are usually in a form of large tanks above or below ground. They are usually near oil refineries or near a port for easy discharge of products. In this sense, an oil depot is just a container for petrochemical reserves. Included is gasoline. After the transfer of products from water vessel tanker to depot, then the depot will transfer them to land vessels for transport to the different gas stations in Metro Manila. Imagine these reserves were to be relocated outside Manila or Metro Manila. Then the cost for fuel will rise because the land vessels will come from the provinces. I am not an expert in this field but I think despite the promise of commercialism in Pandacan, it will just result to just a higher oil price of which the price commodities that will be sold to those commercial lands are relative.

Security. It is just plain pessimistic that the demonstrators voicing for the relocation of the oil depots because it is a threat to their safety. What if terrorists attacks and bombs the depots? I mean, the oil depots were there long before most of them are born. It was there even during the Japanese invasion. May I remind them that petroleum is one of the most expensive commodity in the world. Even if bombing the oil depots are one of the best options for them to do, even they will suffer the consequences of their actions because we thrive from that energy giving commodity. A shortage of oil will mean virtually no transportation system because mostly all of our transport systems needs energy/oil.

Politics. I think that filing of case against Manila officials by the DENR is backed by a political motive. It is well known that the present DENR Secretary is the immediate past Manila City Mayor. And I believe that they will once again have their showdown in the coming local elections, and this issue will be the main point of Atienza's campaign as well as some other issues that the present Mayor has failed to address.

Misinformation. It is not only the Big Three that will be affected by the change to commercial zone. There are other "non-toxic" industries that will be affected. Manufacturing companies that give a source of living to many of our manual labor kababayans. I wish that the people should be informed that the oil depots that will relocate but also these manufacturing companies. And I don't think that some of those demonstrators know that. Even a League of Kagawads who held a forum about the relocation of Oil Depots didn;t say a word about these other companies in their flyer.

In the end, education is still the best weapon against these kind of things. I really wish will be more informed about the matter so that it will stop these meaningless debates about the industries.

Boss Tope

From Liezielle Taguiam, CSC Secretary, nalipat yung supervision ng Thomasian Project 4 (TP4) kay Kristoffer Almeda, CSC Auditor. Saken naman okay lang kahit sino pa yung in charge. As long as wala na sanang pahirapan pa pag pirmahan ng paperworks. Tsaka it’s a good project to begin with kaya sana supportahan nalang yung project.

My boss up close
Si Kristoffer Almeda, katulad ko, ay mula sa Pakultad ng Inhenyeriya. ECE ang course nya. Tope, as we normally call him, is also a working scholar of the university. As stated earlier, he is the incumbent Auditor of the UST Central Student Council. Hmmmp. If I will describe Tope in a single word, I can say that he is SWEET. Napakacaring nya. Napansin ko yun nung katext ko sya at nasabi kong may saket ako. Napakasensitive nya sa feeling nung mga tao around him. Mahilig syang magbiro, joke joke joke ba. At napakathoughtful nya, biruin mo nagkaron sya ng initiative na bumili ng snacks for the TP4 graduates during TP4 calculator tutorial. And that’s a first in TP4 history! Hindi ko pa ata namemention, gwapo tong boss ko na to. Hindi naman obvious sa picture nya noh? Feeling ko nga chickboy to eh! Hihi! Hindi ko pa nga lang na ungkat kung may girlfriend na sya. Minsan nga gusto ko nang kiligin sa sobrang sweetness nya. Kaso lam nyo naman, may nagmamay-ari na ng puso ko. (YAY!! SOBRANG CHEESSY!!! WHAHAHAHA!)

Thoughts
Ok na ok na ako sa boss kong ito. I have no issues kahit na mas bata pa saken yung boss ko. It’s not about the superiority anyway but the quality of work that we can do. Alam ko that he is somewhat inexperienced with regards to paperworks but I see his potential as a leader. Yun nga lang kelangang kelangan pa syang idevelop. And I think being in CSC will be a good training for him. Pero nagdadalawang isip pa ako kung ifufull force ko ang pagtulong para madevelop yung leadership skills nya. Alam nyo na, we belong in opposing parties. At pinsan pa nya yung founder nung mother party nya dba? Kamusta naman yun? Ay, BTW, Executive Assistant nya na din ako. Ok Ok, alam ko, hindi bagay saken yung position dahil veteran CSC staff ako, pero ayoko naman kasing makipag-argue regarding those kind of positions. Appointed lang din naman ako, kahit mas mataas yung rank ng Executive Coordinator, appointed lang din naman sya. Tsaka feeling ko, mas alam ko pa gawin yung trabaho nya noh. Tulong tulong nalang kami, since we belong in one office (Office of the Auditor ha hindi yung buong CSC).

Future
Hmmp. As early as now, ang tip ko kay Tope, step up. Have initiative. Wag nang hintayin na bigyan sya ng gagawin bago gumalaw. Remember, officer din sya. He shares equal responsibility along with his co-officers. Tapos, alamin nya from past staffs or officers yung talagang trabaho ng isang CSC Auditor. Ewan ko, I feel like he’s a little lost when it comes to his work scope. Now Tope, if you’re reading this, gawin mo lang tong two tips na ito and I assure you, you’ll become one of the best Auditors that LAKAS has put into power. =D

After being exiled to the other section for one semester, I can finally say, “I’m home!” to all the 5th year Chemical Engineering students. After the pre-sectioning earlier, its official! I’m back to where my closest friends are. I’m back where my soul resides. I’m back where my seed was first sown. I’m home to where my heart belongs! 5ChE-A!

Gusto kong sabihin sa mga kapatid ko na babalikan ko sa Section A, na miss ko kayo! Lalo na kayo mga Hawk Boys. Lam nyo naman na special kayo saken. Kayo: Alberchie, Monil, Sir Raniel, Nior, Sed, Pau, Jabs, Kirby, JR, Donald at Jepoy. I really miss the company sa classroom. Although naging masaya naman yung stay ko sa section B, iba pa rin yung tatak A. Lalo na yung company ni Lady Seo, a very very dear friend. Sana alphabetical ulet para katabe ko ulet sya. Dayao, De Guzman tandem! Woohoo!

What do I expect in this coming school year? Very good grades! As promised to my favorite professor, I will study harder this school year. I do have staffs to help me in my student-leader life anyway. This time, I’ll show the ChE professors what I’m made off! Hihi!

What would you do if you’re thirsty and you found a store to buy a soda but then you realized that your half brother is inches away from you and is also availing from that same store? Your eyes met but you both turned away at the same time?

Moi?

I gave him my cellphone number. He was buying load that time. I tried not to be so awkward because I know we bonded before I knew the truth. We shared a few jokes. Actually it was him who was speaking of naughty jokes. Like, I’m so lucky, I have tons of cellphone, etc. Well I understand him because he was deprived of the rights of a son from his father. He texted me after we parted, and he asked me to save his number. He said that he just a bum inside his house, he has no things to do, he just hangs around in their house. I don’t know. After much contemplation, yes he is deprived, but then again, opportunities come to those who seek it. If he really wants to study, there are public institutions that the city can provide for him. He can ask our dad for help since he (our dad) is a public servant for “backers” so that it can boost his chances to enter these public institutions. If there’s a will there’s a way. I have learned that from my college life. Maybe he just hasn’t learned it yet.
