UPDATES! UPDATES!

Well I've been very busy these past few days, to think the sem just started ha. Anyway, I got out of ReneVill's class. Nung first day na na-meet namin siya, he pointed out na "kung ayaw niyong mabwisit ngayong sem ay huwag na kayong magpakita next meeting." I guess nabasa niya ang nasa isipan ko, so well byebye Malikhaing Pagsulat 10. Hello PanPil 17. Actually dapat may MPs10 pa rin ako, pero kay Andrada na. Kaso para wala ng away nag-PanPil 17 na lang ako kay U. Pero love ko pa rin si Sir Andrada kasi ang gay gay niya!

As I have mentioned sa last post ko, may Philo 10 ako ngayon. At sabi nga nila seldom lang siya pumasok. Well dalawang Wednesdays na niya kaming ini-indian. Sana man lang ni hibla ng buhok niya masilayan ko na. Honestly, ala akong idea kung anu hitsura niya. Kung pangit ba siya o maganda, kung mataba o payat at kung kalait-lait ba. Ewan ko!

Pero sabi ni Jeff, kasi naging prof na niya un, nakita naman na niya ang dearest prof ko na pakalat-kalat sa campus. Wish ko lang nga mapadpad naman siya sa klase niya minsan.

I will not talk about my major subjects here. Well hindi naman sa boring ang mga pangyayari, its just that hindi ko feel. Although masaya naman ako sa CRes 110 dahil kung anu anu kalokohan pinaggagagawa namin at halos every meeting ay parang may pot session lang kami, hindi ko pa rin feel magkwento. Kapag nabad trip na lang ako saka ako magkwekwento.

Well anu pa ba? Ah, at last I am joining an Org. For real na ito. Last time kasi naudlot eh. Anyway, CommResSoc ang target namin ng aking mga friends. Exclusive sa magagandang CommRes students na sa hindi malamang bagay ay nakaka-survive pa sa bagsik ng mga prof sa Dept.

Last Friday naganap ang orientation ang buddy bidding. No comment na lang sa buddy bidding. I think lahat ng kasama ko na nandun pare-parehas kami ng nararamdaman. Pero kahit ganoon, excited pa rin ako sa whole App Process. Shortest application process daw ito ayon sa mga members sa buong history ng CRS. Kasi 30 years na sila sa Feb. So like naman nila na kapag nag-30 sila, mems na rin kami. Di ba, saya! :D

Sige ayun lang muna, marami pa akong kelangan basahin. Kabundok na nga eh. Bakit ba kasi nagkasakit pa ako. huhuhu...

VAU: Three Letters One OUGHT Not to Forget!

CRes 101 grades are out. And thank God I passed the subject. Turns out our paper did well and pulled all my low scores in the exams. I got a 2.00!

Well I'm really happy getting that grade since I think, it's high enough considering all the things we have heard from upperclassmen about VAU. So I retain my CS standing. Whee... I am really happy.

But on the other hand, I can't be too happy.

Well something happened to my other classmates, especially my friends. Because of technicalities they got into some sort of a problem. And I'm really sad that because of what happened, some of my blockmates might be bidding CRes goodbye. Ohh... things will never be the same again.

But because of what happened, I think it made all of us more determined to finish the program. Now we know that no one is safe. ANYTHING can happen to ANYBODY. Now we should REALLY expect for the unexpected.

We can do this guys! (gals!)

P.S. To my shifting out classmates, I hope you reconsider. But whatever your decisions may be, I wish you all the best and may you find you true heart's desire. Iyong "kanya-kanyang hilig" VAU has been talking about the whole first sem. :)

The Search for this Sem's Next Freaking Subjects...
Will I survive?

The second sem has already started, but I tell you, lots of things happened before we got officially enrolled.

I went to Maskom a bit late on the first day of registration. Little did I know that I should have gone earlier because our whole CRes 101 class has to fall in-line with the other students o see the College Sec. Well we didn't do anything wrong. Its just that our 101 grades were not yet available since VAU went on a trip to Singapore during the break and forgot all about her students. Thanks Ma'am! What's worse, we cannot enroll yet since we still aren't sure if we passed the damn subject or not. Of course you can't proceed to higher CRes if you ailed the previous one.

And what is even worse is that I am six units short. So still have to do manual enlistment. And thank God for the TriColl thing which makes all the lives of other students harder to bear.

So second day it is for me.

I tried the Geol class first thing in the morning the following day, Nov. 8th. When KC, Raine and I went their the previous day they said that 45 slots were "up for grabs" the next day so I was really hopeful. But expect the unexpected. Daig pa ata ang pila sa Wowowee sa haba ng pila sa NIGS. So I gave it up and just went back to AS to try English classes. I so wanted to have an Eng 30 class, sadly I failed again. I ended up taking MPs10 (Malikhaing Pagsulat 10). I thought it was okay but thanks to Google, I now know what to expect. Turns out my prof is a Palanca awardee, Hall of Famer I guess, and based on feedbacks from Ron (a Filipino major), my prof who I will call ReneVill from now on is really strict and moody. I also found out that he was the scriptwriter of Batibot. So will I drop the subject or not? Need help guys.

I will also be taking Philo 10 this sem. Well I swore never to take a Philo class. But scarcity lead me to it. I just happen to pass by the Philo room and found out that there were a couple of slots left. Since I was so tired of the whole manual process, I decided to enroll in one of the remaining open classes. For the first tiem , I have a Wednesday class. And to my surprise, I found out that my prof-to-be seldom comes to class. And is generous in giving grades, which I badly need now with ReneVill at hand.

I got AeroKickboxing for PE. But I got disappointed when I found out that they offer Belly Dancing. Aww... But it won't fir into my schedule anyway since Belly Dancing classes are held every TF. Which are my Major Subjects days.

I have three majors this sem: CRes 110 (Quali), CRes 115 (Quanti) and CRes 125 (Computer thing). Luckily I got a MST class. The "uno-able daw" na MBB1 class. :)

Hopefully I can manage this kind of schedule just like the previous sem which was my favorite sem in my entire UP life.

Usher is that you?!

there's this new thing going on in the net lately. it's a friendster-myspace-multiply site combined. It's called TAGGED.

So whats new? practically nothing. well i haven't explored the thing yet since its too predictable. but i guess there are some freebies/perks at stake if you try some of their offers. More like the pop-up thing on your screen when you check your mail or go to porn sites. Ooopss... did i mention porn sites? :]

As of now, the population of Tagged is incomparable to friendster. But I think after a couple of months or so, freaky people will be invading it and will be posting their horendous photos there. Boo. Spare me!!!

And God I just can't wait for all the laughs. Well I saw this page of someone from I do not know where. Aside from the friendster-like features of Tagged, I think it's unique feature is the Confessions part. And so, when I saw the page of this person he confessed, "I am a gay!" What could be funnier?! hahaha...

Well I'm sorry darling if you didn't get the joke there. So for all you dummies out there clueless at this point, his confession should have been, "I am gay!"

My, I didn't wish for this blog to be instructional you know!

Tata for now!

KATATAWANAN SA CLASSROOM
PART II


Ms. D, the Pennsylvanian:
Isang pag-alala sa masayang semestre

Malakas ang usap-usapang tila hindi na yata magtuturo si Ms. D sa susunod na semestre. Hindi kasi makita ang pangalan niya sa mga propesor na magtuturo ng CommRes subjects sa CRS. Totoo kaya ito? Babalik na ba siya sa kanyang Alma Mater? Kung hindi, saan siya pupunta? Aalis nga ba siya?

Ang katatapos lamang na semestre ang unang beses ng pagtuturo ni Ms. D sa unibersidad. Matapos niyang makamit ang PhD sa Amerika ay bumalik siya sa Pilipinas. Pero hindi siya sa UP unang nagturo, kundi sa kanyang beloved Alma Mater na nasa Katipunan lang. (Ang dagdag na kaalaman ay mula kay G. Alberto).

Maituturing si Ms. D na isa sa pinakamagagandang guro sa kolehiyo, marahil pinakamaganda pa nga sa departamento namin. Sabi niya, gusto niya ng collared shirts kasi nagmumukha siyang kagalang-galang. Dagdag pa niya, parang damang-dama niya na siya ang nagtuturo kapag ganoon ang suot niya. Minsan nga naaalala ko pa ang mala-Britney Spear niyang itsura. Naka-pink siya na collared shirt at naka khaki na pants. Tapos naka-sneakers siya. Na ang sabi ko kay Raine ay masyadong malaki kung pagmamasdan. But nevertheless, maganda pa rin siya. Nagsusuot din siya ng mga nakamamatay na sapatos. Iyon bang sa sobrang pagka-pointed eh ikamamatay mo masagi ka lamang nito.

Maayos naman ang naging takbo ng kanyang klase. May mga pagkakataon nga lamang na inaantok ako kasi tatlong oras kaming nakikinig sa iba't ibang teorya ng komunikasyon. At kumusta naman iyon?! Nagkaroon ng pagpapangkat at nagulat ang bawat pangkat ng isang teorya. Dito na nabuo ang mga masasayang quotable quotes ng aking mga kaklase, at maging ni Ms. D. (kung inyong maaalala, nagbanggit na ako ng ilan sa KATATAWANAN SA KLASE PART I. hindi ko na iyon babanggitin muli!)

Umpisahan na natin ang pagbabalik tanaw...

Hindi natin namamalayan pero nagbabago pala ang itsura ng ating bansa. Marahil ako ay nagtataka dahil hindi naman ito nababalita sa mga pahayagan o maging sa TV man lang. Pero ayon sa iginuhit ni Ms. D sa pisara, iba na nga talaga ang itsura ng Pilipinas.


Hindi man lamang natin napansin, naglakbay na pala papuntang Mindanao ang pulo ng Palawan.

Ang ikalawa...

Madalas akong sumakay ng LRT/MRT, pero wala pa naman akong nakikitang nakasabit sa mga tren. Pero mukhang si Ms. D ay meron na. Sa isang paguulat kasi pinatayo niya ang aming mga kaklase at pinaarte na kunwari at "nakasabit" sila sa MRT. Marahil ganito ang itsura noon...


Gaya nga ng nakalagay sa picture, huwag gayahin at baka ma-sakuna ka!

Eto pa...

Maging maingat sa mga pothole sa labas ng inyong mga tahanan. Kapag napabayaan, maaari itong lumaki. At sa sobrang laki ay kaya na nitong lunurin ang mga truck na daraan tuwing baha. Tulad nito...


Tunay na napakagaling ni Ms. D at naisip niyang paalalahanan tayo tungkol dito.

At ang huli...

Huwag maliitin ang mga chakang barangay hall. Marahil ay ginawa na itong sariling tirahan ng mga barangay captain ngunit ayon kay Ms. D, mabisa pa rin itong lapitan kapag may problema ka.



Ayos di ba?!


Tunay nga na mataas ang litera[l]cy rate ng mga Pinoy. Ang mga nabanggit ay ilan lamang sa mga hindi malilimutang pahayag ng mahal naming si Ms. D.

Narito naman ang ilan sa mga na-okray moments namin ng aking mga blockmates:

(1) Necklace sa dibdib ng kaaway

...Diyos ko, maawa ka sa necklace ni MB. Hindi na sila makahinga. Nagpupumilit na silang makaalis sa nakamamatay na pagpiga ng kanyang biniyayang dibdib.

Sino siya?! Balak niyo bang mag-swimming? I-try ang 8 waves or 9 waves park.

(2) Second reading, a reading according to the book of Griffin

...Daig pa namin ang nasa misa. Biyernes pa lamang ngunit atat na ang aming kaklase na basahin ang gospel. Ang tanong, nag-ulat ba siya o nagbasa? Sagot: nagbasa!

Sino siya?! Ayon kay G. Alberto, mahilig siya sa turon. Dagdag pa niya, nasa average ng 2 turon ang nakakain nito sa tuwing nakikita niya ito. Guess na!

(3) It

...Neither a man nor a woman. Kaya IT. Maloloka ka sa mga tanong at sagot na hindi rin namin alam kung saan nanggaling. Isang babala: huwag matakot kung mahuli mo siyang nagsasalitang mag-isa. Hindi siya baliw. Naghahanda lamang siya sa susunod niyang sasabihin sa klase.

Sino siya?! Kakakasal lamang niya. Anak ni Da boy at Vanessa.
