ang init!!!
Grabe, summer na talaga. Pero ang weird ng panahaon, minsan umaaraw ng sobrang init na parang sinusunog ang balat mo. Minsan naman umuulan. Nakakainis tuloy lalo na kapag naka-tsinelas ka lang. Putik putik na ang feet mo. Pero beneficial din para mabalance naman ang tempreture.
Well ano ba ang latest sa akin lately. Naku, may balak na outing na naman ang aming klase nung HS. Hanggang ngayon hindi pa ako nakakapagpaalam sa papa ko kung pwede ba akong sumama. Kainis naman kasi eh, masyado binabantayan ang mga kilos ko. Feeling ko bilanggo ako. Kaazar!!!
Isa pang kinaiinis ko ay hindi ko ma-edit ung recent post ko. Kasi may mga misspelled then ayoko na na italicized ang ibang words. Basta gusto ko siyang palitan. Pero everytime na gagawin ko un eh may problem daw with the HTML code. Naku hindi naman kasi ako marunong ng HTML eh. Sobrang konti lang ang lam ko doon, nung nag-try lang akong gawin ung nasa manual ng kuya ko.
I wanna go swimming!!!
I want the summer classes to start already!!!
I wanna go out with my friends, go skating or sa Timezone na lang forever.
I wanna have that cookie monster!

chill... chill...
isa na ata ito sa mga funny experiences ko. well, dahil tapos na ang exams ay napagdesisyunan namin ni jack na mag-ice skating. yipeee!!! first time ito. But we only had one hour to skate kasi iyon iyong nasa coupon na we got when we went to the grocery.
naku gusto ko na ngang magback-out eh, dapat bowling na lang kami. pero sige go na rin para ma-try ko naman.
naku pagtungtong pa lang sa rink sobrang kinakabahan na ako, ang dulas grabe. so ayun, one hour din akong forever nakahawak sa bars. buti pa si jack nagawa iyong goal niya na makapunta sa gitna ng rink at mahawakan iyong blue na post. kaso sa pagbalik niya sa first try, eh na-excite ata kasi akala successful siya, ayun nadulas dulas siya... bumagsak!!! pero nung second try ay nagwagi na siya.
matapos ang pagmamagaling namin sa skating rink eh diretso naman kami sa Timezone. Dahil limited na lang ang funds namin, hindi na namin na-try kunin ung Cookie Monster na stuff toy. Paano ba naman, mahirap na magrisk di ba?! Paano kugn sa first attempt eh hindi namin makuha, eh di patay patay na. kaya nagdance extreme (?) na lang ako at nag-basketball kami. kaso nakakahiya, sa sobrang lakas ng pagtira ko, napunta sa likod iyong bola.
Ito pa ang nakakainis, nung pauwi na kami, nakita na lang namin na nakuha na si cookie monster. huhuhu... nakuha nung babaeng adik sa timezone, ultimo care bears nga na meron naman sa toy section ng SM eh ayaw pakawalan hanggat hindi niya nakukuha.
Kaya nabuo ang aming motto:
Mahirap Maging Mahirap!!!
Okay ayan ang kabuuan ng nakakaloka at haggard na araw ko. Wala pa diyan ang inis ko sa mga mapagmagandang staff ng isang office sa UP ha. nagtatanong ka ng maayos tapos pagtataasan ka ng boses. How bitchy!!!

when i became jocjoc botante...
okay, i know its kinda late for me to be posting the pictures of my birthday party last feb. but who the hell cares. so here they are. well i don't know if the pictures would turn out right for i just reduced its size here. forgot to do it sa photoshop. might be a little pixellized or something, well who cares about the right terms anyway?!
Okay so here they are...
THE visitors. From left: mark, angie, jack, kenneth, karen, ron, ses, alpha, kim. (This pic was actually taken before they went home.)
WITH the celebrant. Of course, it wouldn't be complete without the goddess herself. hihi...
WACKY?! Anong epek naman ito kapatid?! ayan parang class picture may formal then may wacky. ayan, naglalabasan na ang tunay na nature ng mga bisita ko!
Ayan, nag-umpisa na silang maging-high. nakahawak na kasi ng mic eh. Hala, pili na ng song na kakantahin. kung pwede lang na tig-isa na ang mga ito ng TV para wala ng agawan.
Pero infairness nahihiya rin naman sila (pwede pala un?!). Si angie at karen kunwari pa, sabik namang kumanta. Hala, si ses ang saya pa rin kahit kawawala lang ng cellphone.
SECURED. Ayan, napasakamay na ng mga Bakawan ang magic sing. Sorry na lang kina ronel at no chance na pakantahin pa sila ng mga iyan.
YOU can do it!!! Pero talbog ang lahat kapag kumanta na si Kim. Walang makakatalo sa singing prowess niyan. Iba'ng level! kesehodang magsilabasan na ang mga ugat niya sa leeg. KEBER!
Ayan laos ang beauty ng mga beklas. Sige nood na lang kayo. Wait na lang na kumuha ng foodam si kim para maka-try na mag-sing.
Pa-min-ta! hala, kumanta naman kayo. Si mark wishing pa rin ma-contact ung phone ni ses.
PUWEDE pa-join?! O mega enter naman si ronel sa scene.
KAMI rin!!! Siyempre dapat kasama rin kami, kahit haggard na ang lahat.
PERO, walang tatalo kay Alpha (hehe... peace!) Kung sila Ses at Kim ang Bakawan sa Magic Sing, si Alpha ang ultimate na bakawan sa digi-cam. Parang siya nga ung may birthday eh. Daig pa ako...
ses and alpha,
kim and alpha,
buti may pampalubag-loob. Kami ni alpha.
Ayan, iyan ang nangyari sa birthday celebration ko nung feb 19. five days after my birthday. Siyempre baka hindi naman makarating ang mga ito nung mismong Valentine's Day, eh may kanya-kanyang date ang mga iyan eh. Di ba ses?!
Anyway, thank you sa mga nagpunta. Naghasik kayo ng lagim sa village namin. Hanggang ngayon hindi sila makatulog dahil bumabagabag sa kanilang isipan ang mga boses ninyo. Maya't mayang may nagbabato ng bote sa gate namin dahil sa inyo.
Chorva!!!
Salamat sa mga nagpunta at sa mga regalo niyo na sobrang ginagamit ko ngayon. hindi bale susunod na kayo alpha and ses. Pag-iisahin ko na lang iyong mga gift niyo ha para tipid. Tutal magkasunod naman kayo eh.
Anyway, 18 na ako. Shit I'm like pwede nang bumoto! Next year Feb 14 19 na ako, so iyong regalo ko ha. :)

ang pagbabalik (shit parang panday, ickyness!)
Grabe after ilang years of hibernating I am back. Well why not eh the semester is over and besides, the books lined up for me to read will not be enough for me to enjoy (sana nga) my vacation. Aba, two weeks din iyon bago mag-start ang summer classes ano!!
Anyway, its been almost two months since I last updated my blog. I’ve been very busy these days (parang totoong nag-aaral ha?!). But honestly, I have so many things to talk about. But siguro I was not in the mood to do so. Kaya medyo turn back time ang magiging mga entries. Well for the sake of missed happenings na lang. Kahit wag na ang mga ka-chorvahan ko sa lyf.
At para hindi na rin mailto ang mga utaw (o sisterette lam ko naman babasahin mo ang blog ko eh, ayan mga nakukuha kong words sau) eh isang entry na lang ang back-to-the-future emote kong ito. Pero wait naisip ko i-separate ung mga feel kong ihiwalay. (this is my blog anyway. Ang bitch ever!!!)
Okay acads muna para matapos na. Nyway tapos naman na talaga. Well, compared sa previous sem, I think mas okay naman ang grades ko this time. Aside from mas nag-exert ako ng effort (well kung effort nga iyong maituturing), eh I enjoyed my subjects. Siguro isang reason ung para mag-persevere. Chika!
Sa tingin ko naman mataas ako sa PanPil 40. Aba, sapakin ko prof ko kapag hindi. Hehehe… Sa Comm 100 (majors ito!) nasa line of 1 naman ang final grade. Hehe… hindi ko an tuloy naikwento ung adventures naming sa paggawa ng group report for this class. Medyo GMA 7 lang naman. Ashushu… Okay separate na lang. mahaba masyado un.
Okay din naman ako sa SocSci 1. medyo nafru-frustrate lang kasi ung 3rd LE eh nalito ako. Kainis. Buti pa si Jack mas okay ung set ng questions niya. Sana Set B na lang din ako. Pero may good news. Hindi ko na kinailangang mag re-take nung exam sa map. Binabaan kasi ung cut-off, dati 7 and below, ngaun 4 and below. Yippee, eh 6 ako!!!
Ano pa ba? NatSci 1, well keri na lang iyon. Ang daya nga eh, kasi ung nakuha kong profs a Physics part mahirap talaga magpa-exam, compared sa prof nila loplop, kim, and prepre (may god laging inuulit ang name ha). Sa Chem naman although parehas na kami ni Loplop, eh nagcompare kami ng 4th LE mas madali ung format nung kanila. Kaazar!!!
Well eto na ang bigatin, PolSc 14. Gudluk sa grades. Kasi wala naman talaga interaction sa class naming so I wonder kung ano makukuha ko grades. Although nakapag-comply naman ako ng mga requirements. Aba, sumugod pa talaga kami sa Manila City Hall para mag-research for our paper ha. And sobrang exert din naman ako ng efforts for the assigned readings. Kahit wala nang pumapasok sa utak ko, go pa rin.
Masaya din ang sem dahil sa mga new friends na na-meet ko at sa ibang blockmates na naka-bond ko. Kahit papaano. Although kulang kami sa Comm (meaning hindi buong block enrolled sa class na un) eh okay lang. I still get to see Raines a PolSc. Pero sina Reg, Jen, Dolly and Sheila super seldom talaga. Super sarap maging seatmates naman ang mga new found friends ko sa ibang subjects. Si pearl sa NatSc na katabi naming ni Annali at sobrang lokaloka rin. Siya din ang pinagtatanungan ko sa SocSci kasi parehas kami ng prof. Sila ung class before kami. Sila Ea at Mike na may-pagkalukaret din. Okrayan lagi sa SocSci with Ea. Sa Bowling naman, ang mga grupmates ko, sila Bea, Trina, at Homer. At sa PanPil sila Tina and Romeo.
Grabe ang haba naman pala ng evaluation ko sa aking second sem. So I guess I really have to make a separate entry for the recall-the-past-happenings thing.

Stop Media Repression!
This statement was signed by 124 students, faculty members and
administrative staff of the University of the Philippines College of
Mass Communication (UP CMC) at its emergency assembly last February 27,
2006.
Rescind Proclamation No. 1017
Statement of the University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication (UP CMC) on the state of national emergency
Proclamation No. 1017 and General Order No. 5, both signed by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo last February 24, have been used by the government to quell legitimate dissent as manifested by the arrests of demonstrators and so-called conspirators to bring down the President. We can conclude from the raid on the broadsheet The Daily Tribune and the tight watch by the military on other media agencies that the Macapagal-Arroyo administration is savaging press freedom.
The suppression of mass media agencies and other organizations will continue unless we unite to fight for our rights and to oppose all measures aimed at curtailing our freedoms. As an academic institution, the University of the Philippines College of Mass Communication (UP CMC) is committed to the defense of free _expression and press freedom.
We believe that press freedom is the cornerstone of a democratic society. It is crucial in providing the people the information they need to form enlightened opinion on matters of public interest especially in times of crisis. And yet, Proclamation No. 1017 condemns the media for "recklessly magnify(ing)" the claims of the political opposition.
The UP CMC is committed to oppose measures like Proclamation No. 1017 which clearly undermine the role of the free press in the country.
We demand that the President end the assault on press freedom and the media and immediately rescind Proclamation No. 1017.
**************************************************
Well post ko na rin bilang kasapi ng kolehiyong ito. Kahit pa hindi ako nakasama sa Emergency Meeting ng CMC. Xempre la naman class, bakit pa ako pupunta. Besides, papayagan ba ako?!

Manila Standard
March 2, 2006
Dear Tita Cory, senators, congressmen, businessmen, media people, leftists, and all bleeding hearts out there, I am angry. And I know that there are many out there who are angrier than I am for the same reason. And that reason is simple. I am sick and tired of all you guys claiming to speak for me and many Filipinos.
I feel like screaming every time you mouth words about fighting for my freedom and my rights, when you obviously are just thinking about yours. You tell me that the essence of democracy is providing every citizen the right to speak his or her mind and make his or her own informed judgments, but you yourselves do not respect my silence and the choices I and many others have made. In other words, your concept of democracy is limited to having your rights and your freedoms respected, at the expense of ours.
I am utterly flabbergasted that you still do not get it: we already responded to your calls, and our response has been very clear —we chose not to heed your calls to go to Edsa or to Fort Bonifacio not because we do not love our country or our freedoms or our rights, but precisely because we love our country even more. Because quite frankly, we are prepared to lose our freedoms and our rights just to move this country forward. You may think that is not correct, you can tell me all the dire warnings about the evils of authoritarian rule, but quite frankly all we see is your pathetic efforts to prop up your cause. You tell me that you are simply protecting my freedoms and my rights, but who told you to do that? I assure you that when I feel that my rights and my freedoms are at a peril, I will stand up and fight for them myself.
You tell us that GMA is not the right person to lead this country because she has done immoral acts. As someone who sees immorality being committed wantonly in many ways every day and by everyone (yes, including you), I may have become jaded. But you have not been able to offer me any viable alternative, while GMA has bent over backwards many times to accommodate you while continuing to work hard despite all the obstacles and the brickbats you have thrown her way. From where I sit, she is the one who has been working really hard to move this country forward while all of you have been so busy with one and only one thing: to make sure she does not succeed. So forgive me if I do not want to join you in your moral pissing contest. Forgive me if I have chosen to see things from another perspective.
You say she is the problem. I say, we are the problem; more to the point, I think you are a bigger problem than she is. Taking her out may solve part of the problem, but that leaves us with a bigger problem: you. That is right, you!
While I felt outraged that she called a Comelec official during the elections and that she may have rigged the elections, I have since then taken the higher moral ground and forgiven her. Yes, my dear bishops, I have done what you have told me to do since I was a child, which you say is the Christian and moral thing to do: forgive. Especially since she has asked for forgiveness and has tried to make amends for it. Erap certainly has not apologized and continues to be defiant, continuing to insult us every day with his protestations. Cory has not apologized for her incompetence but we have forgiven her just the same because like GMA, she has worked hard, after all.
I know you think that GMA's apology was not enough, or that she was insincere, or that that apology should not be the end of it, but please spare me the hypocrisy of telling me that you do so for the sake of protecting the moral fiber of society. The real reason is because you smell blood and want to go for the kill.
Well, I have news for you. I do not like her, too. I did not even vote for her. I voted for Raul Roco. But as much as I do not like her, I do not like you even more. I may not trust her, but guess what: I do not trust you even more.
You know why? Because all you do is whine and sabotage this country. You belittle every little progress we make; conveniently forgetting that it is not just GMA who has been working so hard to achieve them.
Every single day, we keep the faith burning in our hearts that this country will finally pull itself out of the mess and we work so hard to do that. Every little progress is the result of our collective effort, we who toil hard every day in our jobs. Yet, you persist in one and only thing: making GMA look bad in the eyes of the world and making sure that this country continues to suffer to prove your sorry point. In the process, you continue to destroy what we painstakingly try to build. So please do not be surprised that I do not share your cause. Do not be surprised that we have become contemptuous of your antics. You have moved heaven and earth to destroy her credibility, you have convened all kinds of fora and hearings and all you have done is test our patience to the core. For all your effort, you have only succeeded in dragging us further down. I say enough.
Don't get me wrong. I am not asking that we take immorality lying down, or that we let the President get away with anything illegal. But you have tried to prove your accusations all this time and you have not succeeded, so it is time to let things be. Besides, you are doing something immoral as well if not utterly unforgivable. The Magdalo soldiers are consorting with the communists—the same people who have been trying to kill democracy for years. Cory has been consorting with Erap and the Marcoses.
So please wake up and take a reality check. In the absence of true and genuine moral leadership, many of us have decided to cast our lot with the President, even if we do not like her. A flawed leader is better than scheming power-hungry fools who cannot even stand up for their convictions in the face of an impending arrest.
Your coup attempts and the denials that you have consequently made only underscored what we think is true: you are spineless and unreliable people whose only defense is to cry suppression when your ruse does not work. You are like bullies who taunt and provoke, but cry oppression when taken to task for your cruelty.
I would have respected you if you took the consequences of your actions like real heroes: calmly and responsibly instead of kicking and screaming and making lame excuses. You say you are willing to die for us, that you do all these things for the country and the Filipino, but you are not even willing to go to jail for us.
Come on, you really think we believe that you did not want to bring down the government when that is the one and only thing you have been trying to do in the last many months?
We love this country and we want peace and progress. Many among us do not give a damn who sits at Malacañang because we will work hard and do our share to make things work. If you only do your jobs, the ones that we elected you to do, things would be a lot simpler and easier for every one.
The events during the weekend only proved one thing. You are more dangerous and a serious threat to this country than GMA is. We have seen what you are capable of doing—you are ready to burn this country and reduce everything to ashes just to prove your point. If there is something that we need protection from, it is protection from you.************************************************************
