What the night can do...

 

... To Makat...

Happy Birthday Gsel!!!!!!

yesterday, i woke up early, the usual morning routine, and then drove all the way to UP just to attend our boring Nat Sci 2 class. i was having second thoughts if we have a class or not because our prof was so unorganized in her way of speaking and teaching (really, i can't imagine how she became a professor especially in a Biology subject!) so we attended still.

and so, we woke up early.. FOR NOTHING! we had no class, and guess what? we also have no class in English 10 because we are given this week to finish our Concept Paper.. that we know thanks to our responsible and approachable professor (argh!! i hate out Nat Sci/Bio prof!!!).

so anyway, gelai, camille, arlene, fleur and i just stayed at CS canteen doing our own businesses (gelai reading arlene's phone, camille and arlene reviewing for Kas 2 class, fleur annoying arlene, and me reading the book i bought last thursday - eleven minutes). that lasted for an hour and 30 minutes.

after that, i drove them to their own classes and when i drove camille to the gym, i discovered they are still allowing students to sign up for ACLE (Alternative C_______ Learning Experience????? not sure). anyway, our math professor said that if we attended any of the 'lessons' in ACLE, we would get plus 15 points that i really badly need!! why? my average of the 1st 3 teacher exams and midterm is 76%.. shit..

anyway, guess what i signed up to?? THE ULTIMATE FRISBEE!! yeah! i'm now into trying new sports (like my PE archery) and i'm really interested in learning this at least the basics because this is just a one day affair.

after dropping them to their respective classes, i decided to go to BigR to study and type at our shop so that i wouldn't spend a penny (as compared to staying in katip) and so that i wouldn't die of boredom (as compared to staying in any lib in UP).

after my class, i picked up yen at Mcdo katip and we went back to UP to jog around the Acad oval which was 2.2 kilometers! i'm really out of shape and i really wanted to try that. although i wasn't ready to jog with a runner! yep! yen is a runner.. and i decided not to follow her pace and just did mine. eventually, after some time, i saw yen already waiting for me from where we started..

after running (at least jogging for me), we went to the sunken garden and decided to play soccer for a while. yen and i joined this soccer org in UP together with sherry and we just practiced for our 'training' later this afternoon.

(ATTENTION: to all those who are interested in joining, i would like to reiterate, this is open to eveyone including Non-UP students! c'mon! may you be an expert or a beginner or you're just curious on how to play the game, join us! promise! ang saya!)

we decided to walk now around the acad oval so as to relax our tired legs and just appreciate the beauty of surroundings. again, i don't know what i'm getting myself into! yen started preaching about the monocots and dicots and on how to determine the ages of trees by just looking at the circles of the trunks etc (hehe! peace yen!) i still had fun plus i learned a lot!

we eventually went home, i ate a light dinner, took a bath, watched TV, tried doing some school stuff although ate needed the PC so i just slept and there!

  

It's a Manas Day!!

 

  

Day Out with Friends!

 

  

i hate sundays, really.. it's a day where i normally stay in my house by myself, thinking of the schoolwork to do for the next day (bummer!!).. it's a good thing it's different this sunday.. now i have a few reasons to like this day! =)

just this afternoon i've watched another movie.. well, you see i've grown to become a movie freak (which, i just want to add, is not bad at all) and i've watched almost every movie there is that are shown.. at least those that i think are worth my money..

i admire movies, i critique them and i've got a lot to say about them.. some made me think, some were easy to understand yet were fond to watch, while some were unoriginal and very predictable..

but that's not entirely my point in creating this entry..

my point is, these past movies that i've watched and mostly the movies that are shown and that have been shown always portray a happy ending.

yeah, it's fun to live and imagine your own fairy tales that everything will bend the way you want it to.. but it doesn't work that way.. reality is, things don't always end up happy..

i know we make our own 'happy endings' although what i've observed in these movies is that you always get everything you want..

i'm not saying movies should show bad endings (or maybe sometimes they should) but at least show the viewers what reality means, that life doesn't always spoonfeed us with everything we need.

movies have grown so idealistic and that shouldn't be. although the good part of this is that they give hope in getting this 'special' something.

nonetheless, i think movies should illustrate the reality, where every person can relate to..

call me pathetic but i think this is really one flaw of the movie industry..

i may have only realized this now because i'm one of those people who have observed the unfairness of life and who is currently in search of that happy ending..

yeah, i'm pathetic but what the heck..
