Sentiments

Today is a good day. I finally have friend #1 back. Thank you God.

Tim was being sentimental in our Finance class this afternoon.
He sat beside me, suddenly he said
"Isang taon nalang ga-graduate na tayo."

I've been going through the same feeling since this sem started. Wala lang. I just wish I have more time to be with all my friends. This junior year has been a really great year for all of us- my block mates, both old and new. I wish I get to be with my non-BA friends as well. My GE friends and CWTS team. I miss screaming at the top of my lungs with my rappelling team. We're like a big family- Engineering people, plus me and Kara (Psych).

Another thing happened in Finance today. Ma'am Guantes was discussing future values of stock dividends. She asked a question and I tried to answer it (hoping to look interested because half the class isn't listening). Anyway, when I recited my answer in such an enlightened manner, she replied in her monotone voice, "yes." The funny part was I didn't understand if it was a 'Yes, you're right, that's really nice" or "Yes, duh! Ngayon mo lang naintindihan?" Seriously, the monotone confused me. hahaha

* * *

Okay, now I miss you my friend number 2 and 3. It's been a while, my dears. I hope we can catch up soon. I was with 3 kanina but we didn't get to talk much. And 2 is simply invisible and out of reach.

Juancho made me laugh really hard today. hahaha "Parang I felt I was falling na..." hahahaha

I'm currently loving Sara Bareilles' song, City
"I'm finding every reason to be gone,
There's nothing here to hold on to
Could I hold you?"

We will have 6 exams in the next two weeks. Plus cases plus papers plus all the other deliverables. Crunch time na. Stress month.

Today was fine. We finally have a new professor in Marketing, Miss Agatep. She is also the other block's professor. She's okay naman. At least more engaging than Dr.Ben Paul. Still, nothing compares to Ma'am Chin's great teaching skills. Fa, Punky, Vicki, Kyle, Pat and I had Yellow Cab Meatlovers Pizza delivered for lunch. Yay, Yum yum! Anyway, Law class was canceled. So maybe, today was great. We had this karaoke day as part of my business organization's week-long anniversary celebration. Yeah, I sang but never mind what I sang or what my score was. Everyone in the org believes that the karaoke was not in its best condition anyway. hahaha

* * *
Someone didn't speak to me today. But fine fine, I'm too happy to even mind. Okay, maybe I hated the fact we didn't speak, but I think I understand.

* * *

I just finished watching the last episode of Gossip Girl's first season. I've been going through lot lately. I feel confused, angry, jealous and happy all at the same time. If there's one thing I learned from Gossip Girl, it's being a friend.

I want to be like S. When she eats her pride at takes in a bullet for a B or Dan or Jenny. When no matter how bitchy B gets, she will still stick with her. The scene where she stopped B from leaving for France...it made me weak. I was touched.

"Stay and fight. I'll fight with you."
-S to B

But somehow, I find myself associated to B's character. She's nice but mean. She's sweet but cruel. She loves Nate so much even when there is no assurance of forever.

But it's fine. I think I'm actually moving to the character of S.

I'll give you time. But if you need me, I'm here.
Love,-

Isn't that so Serena?

I'm starting to be extra understanding, become sweeter to my good friends and trying to listen to people more. And of course, like S, fear nothing to take a chance on something like love.

Oh, did I just say love?

Ü

"One can never have too much of the good stuff."

Ahh, yes. Chocolates, ice creams, cakes, etc.

I want to thank you for the comforting hugs, the sweetest gestures, the genuine grip and all that effort to make me feel alright. Thank you for listening, for talking, for sharing and simply sticking around. You know what? Maybe you're right. We can never have too much of the good stuff.







And that includes spending a little more time with you.

Will definitely be remembered.

The UP Centennial Kick off Celebration was effin' amazing! I cannot describe the feeling of being there to witness something great. It is history unfolding in my naked eyes. homaygash!

Migs decided to skip his Fencing training to join us in the concert. I am truly touched.:)

I totally enjoyed watching the parade except of course the fact that it was hot and tiring to stand for hours! The skydivers were worth the wait naman so that's cool. We moved to the field at the back of Quezon Hall so we can get a good spot for the concert. We sat on the grass because our legs were screaming in pain already. And three long hours later, the concert finally started. I loved the 1812 overture, the chorale version of APO Hiking Society's Blue Jeans and ok, I appreciate the appearance of Maestro Ryan Cayabyab. He sang one song which he composed with a friend back in their UPIS days. Yun lang...I wish he just sang a song that everybody could sing along with. Para naman mas worth yung hintay namin diba? But then again, this is about the University's culture and rich history so fine. hahaha In the closing ceremony in December, please sing Tuwing Umuulan or Paraiso or Heto Na Naman. So that we can sing with you, ayt? Oh, by the way, the Maestro entered UP as a Business Administration student but pursued Music when (then) Senator Salvador Laurel offered him a scholarship in Music. Woot woot, BA!

Fa messaged sometime during the concert. Just checking on us. She's in Batangas for her lola's birthday bash so there. She was there busy having her face licked with her toddler cousins.

Fireworks. AMAZING. The best fireworks display I've seen in my whole life. Better than that of Mall of Asia and Enchanted Kingdom combined. (Now I totally don't mind the tuition increase. hahaha, I kid!) OMG. I really really fell in love with the heart shape fireworks. I wanna die. :) I wish Fa was there to see it. Then we can both die of kilig together. hahahaha :P

Si Juancho nag aya manood nung Kick off tapos wala naman siya. weh.
Btw, Juancho's mom is close to Mr.C. Maybe she can hint about nicer songs? hahaha

It's funny how sneaky God can be. He made this night something far better than I hoped for. I love this night. I wouldn't want it to end any other way.

Eyes like waterfalls

Dear Adz,

I totally know how you're feeling right now. It's one of those days when you realize that the very things that make you happy will be the ones that will hurt you so bad. To a point that tomorrow, when you wake up, you will need to find the strength somewhere in your soul. The strength to get up and face the day even when it feels like it's not gonna be a good one. This is strength. R, F and J are strengths. Jesus is strength. See? It comes when you need it. And trust me, it will be enough to get you through the day. Keep in mind that as long as there are mornings to wake up to, people to run to and minutes to call on Jesus, you will always have a reason to face every waking morning.

Love,
Lee

To Raisia who listened and sent me a tight cyberhug.
To Fa who's always been there and who gives me a hug at random moments.
To Juancho who reminded me of Jesus.
To Karen M. and Ching for the hugs.
And of course, to Jesus, who sent these wonderful people.
I l♥ve you all.
