I wanna be a billionaire.


Had I won that 750 million peso lotto draw, my plan was to build a students' center in UP. It'll house the orgs that will qualify certain standards. And then every certain period (say two years), orgs will be reevaluated. ABAM, of course gets its own space. haha

The center will have wireless internet, their own awesome cafeteria, meeting rooms, game rooms, event halls, the works! Pretty much like this office of Skype (photos from Interior Design ideas). The event halls will be available to other orgs too so they can hold their big events in campus.


Qualified orgs get their ID cards and will need to have it scanned (yes, hi-tech itetch!) before using meeting rooms. CCTVs will be installed all over the building to make sure no vandalizing and theft happens. And if it happens at all, we cant track em down.

Cleaners are assigned per day and per area. The cafeteria will have a 'clean your table before you leave' policy. No overnights allowed. The center will also have its set of officers who will lead projects that are socially relevant and will contribute to the academe and the society in general. The student center will also have a board of directors- composed of members of the alumni community, sponsors and professors who will evaluate projects, act as guardians to members, and ultimately, gather support to sustain the students center.

Non compliance to the house rules will lead to cancellation of membership to the students center and a one term ban from application.

HAHA OKAY, I'M GETTING TOO SERIOUS. TALAGANG NAPAG ISIPAN KO NA DIBA?


I still want to do this. Only it'll take a little longer and if I become a billionaire at all.

Oh what money could do. :)

Just because.

So much has happend since I last posted but it's too much that I cannot even find the energy to write about it. It's basically just me spending so much time out with different groups of friends, meeting new people, and hanging out a little too much in Maginhawa Street. It's practically my second home in the last two weeks.

Anyway, earlier this evening I was blog-hopping and had a random thought. I cannot wait for the day that I'm so rich that my only must do in life is wake up and breathe. Hahaha Ang labo. And when that day comes, I'd love to send my friends little gifts on random days just because.

I like and miss doing things just because I feel like doing it. The I-don't-care-what-people-think sort of randomness. It makes me feel more human. More alive. But I hate to say that I'm such a chicken when it comes to randomness. Ever since work got serious, I've been more serious, more calculative, more careful with the things I do. I'd have to think and rethink decisions, even the minor ones. I just miss living life the way I think it should be lived.

I remember telling myself after the Japan quake that in this day and age, nothing is certain and I should start living my life as I envisioned it. Where'd all my guts go now?
