random thoughts on the 3rd of feb, 2005

1. i am secretly hoping that our advertising teacher would give me name to the former country director of P&G for a possible shot at an employment there. God forbid. in spite of sending resumes i still haven't gotten any calls. i am losing hope. but really, i don't think i'd enjoy working in P&G, and besides, there's a small chance of my teacher giving my name after i fucked up orals with her last thursday.

2. i am in a dilemma. you see, 1430 to 1800 classes were supposed to be called off today for the university service awards and yet because our advertising teacher had already talked with the coke vp for export marketing guy, the talk couldn't be cancelled so she's calling off classes the week after next week. the problem is that of course, including me, all of the seniors are now secretly wishing that there'd be no finals for this class since our teacher is a bit forgetful and i think she's kind of forgetting that we have only until this month. the problem is, our teacher trusts me so much that she asks me about everything and my senior friends don't want me mentioning anything about the finals to her. but i also want to have that finals since it's my chance to redeem myself for the fucked up orals i did.

3. i was slightly bitten by my cousin's dog today. and he was chewing on my slippers. and i'm still in a good mood.

4. sir sev was funny yesterday. when i saw him for the events project consultation, he said that i'm a weirdo. after a closed door deliberation with my adviser for thesis, he saw me laughing all the way in spite of knowing i sort of fucked up defense. and he said, "yan si joyce po, parang bola yan na pagni-roll mo pababa, makulit, pilit magroroll pabalik pataas." and he added, "alam mo, ok naman yung thesis mo. kinukulit ko lang."

5. i'm learning to control my temper. hopefully, i'll get there soon.

6. i got my first zero in a quiz for theo. my theo teacher drew a sad face inside that big 0. she said she thought i got the wrong set but when she checked, the problem was really with me. the sad face was for her thinking that i didn't get to understand filipino well.

7. these past few days have been long days for me. prior to this week, i was no longer used to staying in the school from morning til late afternoon or even early evening.

8. tomorrow is my first philo orals and i haven't read a thing. God bless my soul.

9. on saturday, pyke and i will have a drinking spree. thank God.

10. it's less than three weeks. time flies so fast.

11. i went around UP today. i'm tempted to get a degree in film and/or sociology if i don't get to go to the states.

12. i talked with sid last night over the phone. God knows how much i miss that guy. and i thought you weren't serious about reading my blog! :D i promise to give your kylie cd as soon as we see each other in school.

13. finally. ate duday has sun. but the lazy 'ol me hasn't even bought load for the 24/7 call and text unlimited.

14. ate duday and i are going to have dinner soon. it's really something one must look forward to when having a law student as a close friend.

15. i might not go to boracay anymore knowing all the ateneans are going there in summer. palawan palawan palawan with my twin and doing nothing but adventure activities...

16. i need to get a haircut soon. i have been pulling a lot of strands with splitends lately. i have sort of mastered it already.

17. there's a lot in my advertising class that i get annoyed at. these people are irritating--two seniors and tons of juniors.

18. i like the medal i got for iac. it doesn't look cheap.

19. i have to brush up my photography skills.

20. i am serious about enrolling in a cooking school. i hope eric si serious too.

21. i miss sativa, bea's sister's dog. the problem is, sativa loves sid more. :D

22. i have lost weight since immersion. why? all they feed us there were innards, and beer.

23. i drank so much beer last weekend. miss it so much and i'm gonna have a lot more that's for sure.

24. defense is over. i feel like graduation is so near. but thanks to my failing grades in theo, i better pray twice harder.

25. i'm going to get paid for doing my friend's philo paper (which i had fun doing actually). it's about debunking descartes. you know how much i LOVE debunking stupid religious theories especially if they're too unrealistic.

26. one major thing i dislike about a lot of religions: their charismatic side. i'll never be fooled with their "praise the Lord" or the "alive alive" shits. oh and this i don't get, how come el shaddai believers fall for the trick of bro. mike? believers open their umbrellas invertedly in order to catch the invisible "spiritual money" that bro. mike velarde supposedly throws at them. weird huh?
