Highlights of the week: Bus casualties, thesis, and a whole lot more!

With a few more days left to freedom, I'm swamped with academic work (thesis defense, finals, clearance..) It left me with only 2-3 hours of sleep, an empty wallet and totally 0% social life. If there's one thing that keep me sane during this times, it's the thought that I'd be spending a worry-free summer with my loved-ones. I'm thinking of roasting myself in the scorching sands of Batangas or Bora, Cool off at Tagaytay and shop-till you drop at Bangkok. I really wanted to spend my summer at Bahrain with my dad but due to time constraints (one month isn't enough.. :c) and problems with his work schedule (he can't go back there till May 21 because his ticket is scheduled at that date) that plan will remain as a dream. Hay. Plus, I forgot to renew my visa! Lol. I can't go there and be an illegal immigrant (TNT - Tago ng Tago) (it's not the kind of trip that I like). Hay. Summer here I come!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

I'll be changing the lay-out of this blog prolly next week after my academic commitments. I'm thinking of a summer skin, with all the pictures of sand, water and sun. Hay! Sorry, I love summer that much. :D So be on the look-out for the new and improved frigginday.blogspot.com next week! :D

-----------------------------------------------------------------

So what happened to me last week?

• Monday: One month of being pseudo-inlove with someone.
  
  
• Tuesday: Last exam in Animal Physio lab! Weefee!
  Watched Hostel with my brother and bestfriend (Gore + bondage = yum)
  
  
• Wednesday: Went to school for stat.
  Bus casualty: Had a really annoying seatmate at the bus. Can't control blabbering at her fone with his boyfriend (Warren - lol. don't ask me how I knew her boyfriend's name). They had this "away-bati" scenario going on and it's really really disturbing (One minute they're arguing and then some minutes later, the girl starts laughing again). There were funny parts though (It's so damn funny when the girl was guessing what the filipino translation of "cor." or corner - it was KANTO :D) (Her boyfriend on the other line gave her the first 2 (K and A) and last letters (O) and she told KALBO.) So I burst into laughter (a lot of people looked at me. lol) WTF? Corner is KALBO in filipino lingo???? Ahh, the complexities of filipino language. Hahahaha.
  
  Another bus casualty: When the bus was in front of DLSU-Taft, a delivery truck tried to overtake the bus that I was riding. And the pointy edge of the back part of the truck must've hit the bus' right side mirror because it shattered into pieces. So the bus stopped and the conductor went down to talk to the driver. He demanded the truck driver to pay 150 pesos for the damage. But the truck driver refused to believe that it was his fault so he suggested to look for a traffic aide and obtain first a police report. We all saw the he was so fucking stupid and rammed his freaking truck at the bus. 150 pesos was a reasonable price compared to the hassle that he was suggesting. (hello? they need to go a long process before fixing the damged side-mirror: police report, insurance claims!)
  
  So when the conductor told the bus driver that the truck driver refused to cough up 150 pesos, the bus driver got hold of a metal tube and went out of the bus. WTF? Metal tube inside a bus? It seems they're always ready for action! You know what they did with the metal tube? (No they didn't beat up the stupid truck driver) They shattered the truck's right side-mirror! Amanos! (revenge complete! Highway justice had been served that easy!) They both ran inside the bus after doing the devious deed and hit the accelerator (what a bunch of whimps! running away from the scene of the crime. lol)
  
  
• Thursday: Had a "surprise" informal thesis defense in UP Diliman.
  WTF? I wasn't prepared at that time so I sucked. Big time. (Lol. Ralph, if you're reading this, you owe me!) Plus, I didn't have enough money to go home to Las Pinas so I asked my mom to fetch me up at Robinson's Ermita. Lol. Surprise! Thesis defense natin sa Diliman! Somebody shouldv'e taken a pic of me when Ralph told me that line.(To give you a mental image: My jaw dropped and my eyes were round as saucers.)
  
  
• Friday: Submitted copies of final draft to adviser and readers.
  Jeep scenario: Since it was already 6:00 pm (during this time, there are no comfy seats left for me in the bus coming from Lawton), I decided to take a jeep ride to Buendia where the empty buses bound to Las pinas are lingering (waiting for passengers from Makati and those round the area of Buendia). In front of me was an Indian national. He had a goldish tint of hair, hairy arms, pointy nose, a silver bangle, and a black document bag. He was so impatient when the jeep driver kept on stopping and asking people on the streets to ride his jeep bound to Baclaran. He was making annoying hand gestures, jerky body movements, and "Tsk-tsk" sounds every time the jeep stopped or slowed down. Man...! I got so dizzy looking at his body movements. Hay. I really wanted to tell him that he should've taken a taxi ride. Sus, sa hirap ng buhay dito sa Manila, talagang makaka-encounter siya ng mga bakaw na driver! (wait, how would you translate this phrase: "buwaya ang mga driver dito sa Manila"?? "The drivers in manila are alligators?" Lol).

Meet the Parents

Hehe.. Before I formally end my single status, there would be a "meet the parents" charva between him and of course my parents. Hahaha. I already told my mom about him. Hehehehe. Kelangan formal dahil matanda na ako. :p

=======================

Uhh. I was really trying hard not to laugh a while ago when I saw this Razon guy (I don't know his first name) being interviewed in a news program in Channel 7. I know it's bad to laugh at other people. But I just can't help it. He was being interviewed because the person who was responsible for the death of his son (due to a car accident) surrendered himself (I think so). And he gave this ever melodramatic speech like a monologue speech of the lead actor in some action flick. He was like this: "Ang sinungaling ay kapatid ng magnanakaw." and "Ninakawan mo ako ng pinakaimportanteng bagay na minsan lang ako puwedeng magkaroon." (or something like that). Now where did I hear that line before???? In some Eddie Gutierrez flick? Ughh. I'm so bad. I feel bad for him for losing his son. I guess he was just carried away by his emotions. Losing someone dear to you can be overwhelming. Hay. Life is short. You'll never know when the Grim Reaper will come and get you.

In a lighter side of life, I just finsihed watching the show "Made to Order" hosted by Guy and Michael Rubino. I really love these guys! They combine food and art by creating dishes with lively and creative presentations. The food that they serve to their "special customers" (they do special favors and menu tastings) are simple yet its elegance is very evident. That's why they:

Michael Rubino (wearing black) and Guy Rubino (wearing his chef outfit)

are my idols in terms of cooking and presentation. If you guys are interested in watching their show, you could catch them every Thursday (8:30 pm, HKG time) at Discovery Travel and Living. :D

=======================

I was interrupted from finishing this journal entry by two t.v. programs. Hay. Anyway, besides "Made to Order" I really like watching "Fashion Avenue" (also from the same channel). Even if I'm not that fashionable, I enjoy watching people buying dresses, shoes and accessories and knowing how much it cost in other countries. It's a must see for kikay girls who want to know the current trends in other countries and how much (price) to expect. But a word of caution, you could be disappointed while watching the show (lusting over things you can't have is very tough for a shopaholic). (Anyway, I'm annoyed with beautiful women with weird voices or weird accents. ~ Jodie Kidd's guest host on Fashion Avenue was a pretty lady, but when you hear her talk, ay Dyos ko, her voice could pass as Kim Sam Soon's ). If you want to watch this show, tune in every Thursday from 9 to 10 pm at Discovery Travel and Living.

International Super model Jodie Kidd hosts "Fashion Avenue" on Discovery Travel and Living

Simultaneously, I watched "My Name is Kim Sam Soon" in GMA-7. Windouz kinda influenced me to watched this show because he told me that Kim Sam Soon reminded him of me. I don't know if it's a compliment or what. Hahaha. Even if it's an insult, I am starting to like that show. In fact, I'm watching it for 4 days now. :D Achievement! I don't normally watch soap operas from local channels because I think the stories are so over-rated and impossible to happen in real life. (I try to watch the endings though... ;))

My Name is Kim Sam Soon is aired every 9:30 pm at GMA Channel-7

=======================

Hay. I need to sleep now because I need to go to school tomorrow to meet Ralph for our thesis. :D

Thanks:

Food TV for Guy and Michael Rubino's fab pic
Showbiz Ireland for Jodie Kidd's glam photo
Yes Asia for Kim Sam Soon Photo

P.S. Sorry if I'm too critical in this post.

Hostel

Oh yeah. Gore.Nudity.Violence

Wait for me.
I'm gonna watch you this weekend.

Thanks IMDB for the pic.

Never again

Never again will I succumb to failure.

I feel a change comin' up.

Metanoia here I come.

=================================

Switch to a channel then saw this scene:

*Raining hard outside.

Girl takes off her shirt.

Guy approaches girl.

Girl looks guy straight in his eyes.

Girl wraps her arms around the guy's neck (no, not the strangle type)

Guy leans and kiss the girl.

Girl mutters some lines.

Next thing you see...

Guy is wrapped in a blanket.

Morning already.

Note: Seriously.. this one's a cliche. Harhar.

multi-tasking once more.

I just did my sentence outline for animal physio reporting while reading entries on a newly found blog-site, thinking about thesis defense and listening over and over to 98 degrees' Because of You. Man. I'm one busy student. I haven't rested since I got from Diliman (I literally ate dust there). Hay. Still... I've got so many things to do later. Hay.

P.S. Blog plug. If you guys have loads of spare time, visit this blog:

Waiterrant

You'll find this 37 year-old man's blog quite interesting. (In case you haven't noticed from his web address, he is a waiter) :D

Busy busy day

Instead of sleeping all day, I went to UPD today to do some additional experimentation for our thesis. So despite feeling a wee bit sick (usual colds and the katamaran streak I've been havin' lately), I dragged my body to QC. Only to find out that both my thesis partner and Kuya Knong won't be coming to help me out. So I can't do anything about it but to do the job alone. A-L-O-N-E. Imagine a sloth in action. It's not possible I tell you! But because I was already there, I had no choice. So I did ALL the thesis work from 10 am till 3 pm (straight, no break). Hay. I can't ask Windouz to fetch me from UPD because he has a basketball game to go to in North Greenhills. Even if he has a car, LP is so out of his way. (brat ko naman pag nagpahatid ako! ) Anyway, I ended up going home alone. He did remind me to stay at the house and rest. He'll be calling from time-to-time to check-up on me. Hay. But I ended up in SM Southmall by 5 pm with my mom and my cousin. *Tigas ng ulo, abi!!* Well, I immediately checked our phone's caller ID and he didn't call yet. Whew. Busy busy!!

Tomorrow, I'll be back in UPD. But not for thesis but for our finals in P.E. (Yuck abi, 4th year may P.E. pa! -- I've completed all my P.E. subjects but somehow, one of them didn't appear on my TOR.. ) Then in the afternoon, I'll be making an outline for our journal reporting this Thursday. (It is entitled: Effects of food deprivation on daily changes in body temperature and behavioral thermoregulation in rats)

Anyway, that's all for now. I need to sleep early because we're required to be in UPD before 8 am.

Ciao bambino, bambini!

Hay.

So after a very long and tiring day, I give my much awaited... Blog post!

Jarann!!

Hahaha.

I'm not in the mood to write anything here right now.

Maybe I'll post something sensible tomorrow!

I'm kinda emotionally unavailable right now.

You know what I mean. ;)

"Ang bumangga sa aming dalawa, giba!"

I know what you're thinkin'...

What's the real score between you and that guy, abi?

Well.

We're just friends..

Showbiz!

Seriously,

I'm happy with him.
He makes me feel special.
He makes me feel like i'm the most important person everday...
He makes me smile.
He's one of a kind.

Windouz Tiangco --> Weird name huh?
I don't care. He's my weird, Kim-Sam-Soon fanatic slash basketball fanatic guy.

He's my Randy Santiago (I used to tease him that when his eyes got bitten by an insect.)
Sweet kasi eh kaya kinakagat ng ipis. Wehehehe.

Hahahaha. :p

Sorry bout the lovestruck post.

Close encounter with the 3rd kind

*3rd kind - ang ex na hindi mamatay-matay, pabalik-balik parang had-had.

Nakakabadtrip talaga. Dati yung ex ko (nyarks.. :s) yung tumatawag dito tas ngayon some freak-o na nagpakilalang kapatid daw siya ng ex ko. WTF? Tumawag yun dito kanina lang. Kumakain pa ako ng agahan! (hindi si j yung tinutukoy kong ex) badtrip. Tas tinanong pa: "You're taking up BS biology in UP right?" Fuck. Ano yun? Yun yung basis niya para tawagan ako at kulitin? Tas gusto pang makipag-meet sa akin. WTF? At for "personal and exclusive reason" daw. Ang drama. Binigay pa sa akin yung number niya! Hay. Itetext ko nalang at hindi ako papayag. Ano yun? Ano'ng motibo nilang magkapatid. Wala akong care sa kanila. Sinumbong ko nga dun kay Win (yung bago) . Kaso mukhang tulog pa. 11 pm na din kasi siya nakatulog kakahintay sa reply ko. Hay naku. Badtrip. Hindi na ito funny. Weird na lang talaga.

Just the two of us lyrics

I see the crystal raindrops fall
And see the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you some time
And I want to spend some time with you

{Refrain}
Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us, just the two of us
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and I

We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted water's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
Not to those who wait too late
We got to go for all we know

{Refrain}

I hear the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
Darling, when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I want to be the one with you

{Refrain}
...Building big castles way on high...

Just the two of us
Just the two of us
We can make it, just the two of us
Let's get together, baby
Just the two of us
Just the two of us
We can make it, just the two of us
Just the two of us
We can make it, just the two of us
{Repeat last two lines to fade}

Shopping spree

I'm broke right now. Yep. Not a single dime in my wallet.

It got me wondering.. Where the hell did my money went?

Well.

I blame the freaking capitalist Henry Sy, the proud owner of SM Supermalls (please don't sue me). I hate him for bringing SM near (fine, proximal is the more appropriate term) our house. I also blame my mom for agreeing to accompany me shop at SM. Despite the fact that I'm currently experiencing a dry spell because of the enormous printing and re-printing thesis fees + recent thesis poster tarp expenses + Manila - Diliman - Manila - Las Pinas everyday trip expense, I still managed to spend all of my remaining money. I get easily distracted by cheap advertising. My eyes bulge and my jaw drops everytime I see: SM Big Big Sale, Up to 50% off! Fuck. "Must buy only the essentials." But what the hell are the essentials? I bought books because they are essential. (Well, I bought 2 pocketbooks at National Bookstore) I bought food because as we all know food is essential. Only thing is that I bought junk food and Sambos (what? I'm just following the bible saying: "Man cannot live on bread alone."). I bought slippers because partly they're considered as clothes. And clothes are essentials too, right? I know what you're thinking right now. Yup. I'm just making myself believe that all of the stuffs I recently bought are important and I shouldn't be guilty at all. Even if my wallet is screaming on top of its lungs: "FEEED MEEEE. I NEED CASSSSH." Here I am, passing the blame to the proprietor of the shopping mecca of Manila.

Hay. If I'm gonna keep this spending-shopping spree, I really need a job a wealthy man to buy me all of my luxuries. Cheap! Hahaha. But in this time of need, we all need to be resourceful (Friendly-user). Hahaha. Just kidding. :D Really the moral of this monologue is to spend your money wisely and the hell with Henry Sy and the Gokongwei's!!!! Ok let's revise that once more. The moral of this post is: Spend your money wisely and don't go to the mall when they're on sale. Ok. I give up...

Don't buy things that you don't need or you'll end up like me.
Poor and miserable.

I can't text anybody right now.
I spend the last of my money on earrings.
No money, awanti load.

Share-a-load or pasaload anyone?

Desperado.
Hahahaha.

P.S. You guys should try Brownies' Sambos.
They're to die for. 20 pesos each lang!

Babies!

Cute and cuddly babies!

I got this from Yahoo! Kulet ng itsura nung baby!



Baby Tai and Justin! I like this one kasi nakatingin si Tai sa cam!



Aww.. This is Baby Italeigh (from Justin's album ulit). She's supposed to be Tai's gf??



Baby Tai and Italeigh. They look so good together! Pogi and danda!!

If you plan to use this pictures or copy them to your disk...

Please ask me first!! :D

Thank you:

Yahoo and Justin for the pix!! :D

Squirrels in Manila?

Now thats very freaky. I've read that squirrels are invading Dasma and Forbes from Jessica Zafra's blog (Click this --> Jessica ). Daym! Talk about introduction of new critters here in our country. Wow. Iba talaga ang Dasma at Forbes. Parang asa Isteyts na ang mga tao dun! May squirrel pa! Lintek, I'm a freaking biologist and I don't even know how that happened. Hmm. Prolly those dugyot-looking rats must've evolved into furry and cute critters as their form of surviving this mapangmatang society. Hay. I wanna go there just take some pictures, but I don't know if their security guards will let me in. Hahaha. Ano naman kaya ang sasabihin ko? "Manong, I've heard that there are squirrels in your village, can I take a picture? It's been a life-long dream of mine kasi to see them ehh." or maybe "Manong, bibisitahin ko lang po yung lola ko. You know Tita Cory? Ah. Apo niya ako sa libag. Hahahahah." Good luck sa akin. So if anyone of you guys know someone living on either village, can you please ask them to take a picture of the said critters and please send it to my email? Squirrels in Manila? Next time will be seeing polar bears here. Cooool. :D

short post

"UP Manila is a reputable school of tertiary learning in the health sciences, and more high school students interested in this field apply to it than any other college or university in the country. U.P. is also noted for its highly political and activist student body promoting stands on national issues, as well as adopting a stance of academic freedom and excellence."

I got this from wikipedia.

LOL. I'll be leaving UP several weeks from now.

I'm gonna miss the...

...haunted RH rooms.
...perpetually foul-smelling bio lab rooms.
...wacky lab attendants of DB and Chem stockroom
...slave-drivers of DPSM and DB
...oh-so-liberated prof of DAC, Charlie (his assumed name)
...crazy guards of CAS
...rat-infested cafeteria
...mosquito-rich tambayan near oblation
...very revealing statue of OBLE
...floors of RH
...rooms of GAB
...masungit girls of OCS
...girls of Sir Go (OSS SA's)
...CR. (uh no. I'm happy to leave UP because of this)

and so much more.

But on top of it all.

I'm gonna miss my family in UP.

My blockmates.

Hay.

:C
