Catching Up

Sixteen days after my last update, at last, I have a new entry! Sorry for the unannounced hiatus. My blog went to hibernation because of school work. Only three weeks have passed since the second semester had started and I'm already tired. It seems that my professors' favorite pastime is to give their students loads of assignments, researches, projects, reports and tests. So many deadlines, procrastination is my best friend. My only consolation is that I have a better schedule now, by dusk, I'm already home (except for Tuesdays) and I've got loads of break time (two and a half hours of break every Tuesdays and Thursdays and another extra hour every Tuesdays).

Enrollment Day Disaster

This day is a big disaster, thanks to the ridiculously disorganized enrollment day. I had to wait for an unbelievable seven hours and 30 minutes just so I can proclaim myself officially enrolled for the second semester. And the big thing was more than half of that time was spent standing on a line with multitude of students around me.

I arrived at school around 7:30 in the morning. I thought that I would be the first in line. But it turned out that I was the 35th second year student who arrived there. During the first step of my enrollment was not a big fuss. I finished the first step in no time.

Wi-Fi

Haay. Naka dial-up lang ako sa bahay. Yung maingay. Yung eeeeeee grrrrrr eeeeee. Tapos failed, kaylangang ulitin ulit.

Five of my high school friends invaded our home and abused our Internet connection via wi-fi. It all started back in Saturday, when I and some of my friends in high school (a few of them where the same people who invaded our home) played badminton. I did not play much and there was nothing special with it so I will not talk more about it. After we played, we went straight to a mall here in Pampanga, despite that something had blasted in Glorietta 2 the day before that which resulted to a big accident leaving the part of Glorietta 2 where the accident happen unusable, 11 dead, and 129 others injured (Source: Wikipedia). As of the time of writing this, the investigators of the accident doubt that it was a cause of terrorism. They still don't have a concrete evidence that it was a bomb or anything of that sort that set-off this disaster.

Shampoo Commercials

Yes, it's already my sembreak. There's so much thing that I want to do, like I want to bake a peach pie, change the layout of this blog, finish watching House MD (special thanks to the piraters here in downtown San Fernando), read, write reviews of the books that I have recently finished reading, update this blog, and the list goes on but since I've mentioned about updating my blog... I have to update it.

I’ve already mentioned here that the shampoo commercials in the country looked like they were taped in other countries but it turned out that they were taped inside a studio with the usual shocking green background. Honestly speaking, I’m always fascinated with these commercials. Of course, minus the stupid jingles and the weird dance moves. Whoever created them are brilliant and it must have used all of their creative juices just to come up with these funny yet sometimes stupid commercials.

Big Brother

Once you have entered any Big Brother house, I'm sure, your wouldn't have any privacy and confidentiality, or if there is, only a little of the two. It's sad isn't? You can't do things without the others knowing it. It's a breach to everyone's right: the right to privacy. But then, to relinquish one's privacy and confidentiality is a prerequisite or a mechanic or whatever you want to call it of the reality show. Besides, the housemates have consented to relinquish their privacy and confidentiality by joining the game.

Cinderella

Let me tell you a story about my misadventures last Monday...

It was my last PE class this semester. Every single day that I have a PE class, I bring with me my PE uniform and my rubber shoes. On the morning of Monday, when I have finished preparing myself for the day, I decided to play Jak II on our PS2 console. An hour had passed and that means I had to go. But I still haven't packed my things, I was cramming. I'm not one of those students who are always tardy and I really avoid to be tardy.

Another Story About Books

Every time I bring a new book in school, my blockmates would always ask me what I am doing. Can't they see? I'm reading? Isn't obvious? And then, they would ask me what is the title of the book that I am reading. Finally, they would comment that they're not fond of reading (as if I care). I've heard those lines for the nth time! Seriously, I'm getting tired of hearing those lines all over again and again.
