I love Sagada!!!

I had my much-needed break. In the middle of the sem, when midterm exams are in full bloom and stress come in any and in many forms, I escaped QC and found myself in Sagada...haha. saya!

Loved the sites, and food at Yoghurt House and the waterfalls and the cave and the weather. Cold, without snow. Haha. I wanna go back there.

If you want to see more of our Sagada pics, see http://competitive.multiply.com/.

sleep at 1am, wake up at 6...zzzzzzzz...

I've been sleeping at around 1 am for two consecutive days. I got no choice. I need to perfect the art of cramming. I finished my feature article about Woody Co last sunday night. Last Monday night, I studied for my Cultural Geog first comprehensive exam (the term long exam is not apt).

Our thesis topic was not approved. Too bad. After the RRL, and statement of the problem and the specific and gen objectives, our topic was rejected. So we're back at square one. But it's all right. We had a new topic now, thanks to Prof. Arao.

The Special Projects Committee of Green Minds was called SPies (pronounced es-pis, although I call them spies.) So my committee needs a name as well. We call ourselves the MnMs (melt in your mouth, not in your hands.haha), the Multimedia Committee Projects Committee. Or pwede rin MnM Peanuts. haha. Yuck. Corny. pero cute pa rin.

Sagada field trip over the long weekend. Masaya to.

UP is now 0-8. Cellar-dweller huh. Hope Martin Reyes and Woody Co were right. They said they'll win 4 games. So a 4-10 slate will be expected. Anyway, okay lang din kahit hindi. We're just bragging that we're 'matatapang, matatalino' not 'magagaling sa basketball' after all.

Of misaligned broadband and winless Maroons

I dunno if that's the correct term. Misaligned. Our Broadband connection is misaligned. You know those customer service reps? They keep on arguing with me that there is nothing wrong with our broadband connection. It's unusual though. We cannot have signals in the morning or at noon, but we can watch videos from Youtube or funnyordie at night. I asked why is that so. And they said that I need to turn my Firewall off. turn it off? what will happen? will viruses attack my laptop any moment?I didn't do what they told me. Sorry. I don't want to risk having too many virus swarming inside my laptop without me knowing it.

Finished HP7. Ganda. Corny lang un chapter na may conversation si Harry and Dumbledore. But JK Rowling got no choice but to do it that way. Too bad Fred Weasley and Tonks and Lupin and Dobby died.

And I felt sad because the series ended already. But there are still 2 movies coming up. Hope Harry will have a not-so-hideous haircut in the next movie.

Need to interview a sports personality for Journ196 class. Article due on Monday.
And I was assigned to interview Woody Co. Sana magpa-interview cya. I don't know his number and it's gonna be weird if I ask him if I can interview him if I see him in AS. plus, I don't know their practice time in HK gym. Got 6 days to figure that out.

the Fighting Maroons got a 0-7 slate after the first round. But hey, they're called Fighting Maroons, not winning Maroons anyway. And here's the silver lining: Next year, they'll be more experienced and those rookies will be rookies no more. Maybe we'll clinch the UAAP Men's title by then. Kaya yan nina Mike Gamboa, Martin Reyes, VJ Serios and Woody Co. Go Maroons!

Sana pumayag ang journ dept sa thesis topic namin.

(fingers crossed)
