HAPPY!

I'm very pleased with the results of the UAAP Cheerdance Competition 2009! But before I drop my two cents on this topic I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH to ABS-CBN's TFC-Now for the FREE live stream of the competition! I LOVE YOU, ABS-CBN! 

Back to the results... Like the whole UP population, I really believe UP Pep did an awesome job! But every year, just like us, the other schools also try their best to improve. The Ateneo BBB and FEU Tams can attest to that. I liked both and I really think they deserved to win.

I've been reading the forum about the result of the competition. I really appreciate the people who liked UP's routine. I am very flattered to be from UP and you guys are so sweet. I also find the thank you's from the other schools very sweet. There were people from FEU who thanked UP for rooting for them. Also from Ateneo. Don't worry guys. We UP people cheer for those who deserve it. Lastly, I really appreciate those from UST who try to appease and calm their fellow schoolmates who keep posting rude comments on the forum. At least we know there are still level-headed people in UST. Lahat naman ng schools may black sheeps na talagang mag t-trash talk sa mga forums na yan. Even from our school, meron. But I personally support the healthy competition that UAAP aims to foster. Let's not stoop down to the level of black sheeps- regardless of which school they're from.

Let's not hate some schools too much ok? I know sometimes we have to fight back for the love of the school. Pero hanggang kaya pa, let's keep it classy.

Congratulations everyone! I love UP! Great job FEU and Ateneo!

Here's the UP Pep's performance. :) Enjoy!

Binge!


I went on a book binge today at National Bookstore. 

My mom told me they were on sale so I decided to grab a few books on my reading list. I was planning to get Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows because I don't remember reading it. Unfortunately they didn't have it in paperback and the hard bound version wasn't on sale. I decided to get more Coelho books. I have just finished reading Like a Flowing River (haha took me a looong time because I was too tamad).  I love it! I have so many quotable quotes from this book which I shall do in a separate post. 

Anyhoo, I got Brida, The Alchemist (again. Because I think I lost our first copy) and The Valkyries. I was gonna buy only one but decided to get more since I'll buy them in the future anyway. They're at 20% off btw!
I also got this unpopular book The Year of Yes by Maria Headley. I talks about a woman who decided to date every single man who asks her out. I'm excited to read it! hahaha This was an impulse buy because it looked interesting and it's 50% off! Exage. haha

Another impulse buy is the Swatch book! Next to shoes and bags, watches are on my list. So it's no surprise that I couldn't let go of the book. Well, I was gonna let go of it until I saw my first ever Swatch watch included! I'm sooo excited to see which other Swatch watches of mine made it here. YAY! I dunno how much of a bargain I made here (based on the original selling price) but on Amazon it costs $16. I got it for 169 peyzos. 

My last impulse buy was an issue of Ish magazine. It's an art and lifestyle magazine. I had three of this before but I lent it to someone. I've graduated and all and he hasn't return it yet. I need to hunt him down now because I just learned Ish has decided to stop publishing after a decade of existence. So in effect, it's collector's item-ish na. HELLO ROY, PLEASE SHOW UP AND RETURN MY MAG. OR EMAIL ME AND ASSURE ME THEY'RE STILL IN GOOD CONDITION.

Anyhoo, there's my stock for the next few weeks. Gotta read read read to keep the brain active. Keep reading everyone! :) (As in reading books, not facebook updates. hahahahaha)

TRUE THAT!

I got a message from Oskie today.

"Don't choose a candy if you won't buy it anyway.

In other words, don't be too sweet if you don't have a plan to love the person.

In Tagalog, wag mo siyang landiin pag di mo naman siya balak mahalin."

Hahahaha this should have been sent to me waaay earlier. But it's all good. Just brings back funny memories.
