Just because there’s free internet here at Starbucks, Corinthian, I’m going to try updating this thing. Starbucks is not exactly my ideal place to study, but that’s probably because I never really found a ‘good’ branch that’s conducive for studying. It’s all a matter of preference, and this one is surprisingly not bad. It’s not far for Ateneo, but not exactly close enough for me to bump and deal with people I actually know. And the place is pretty big, and plays just the right kind of music – easy-listening, motown/jazz and soul. I’m stuck here because I’m still not...

This is probably my hardest sem yet. And I mean that in different levels – testing me here and there every freakin day. It’s still baffling how I have mustered that much strength to bring me to this point – October 7, my sister’s birthday (no connection whatsoever) with only 5 more days till sembreak freedom. I’ve been wishing for some sort of time-off and recluse ever since this sem started. Now that it’s almost here, I can’t wait. Of course, just before that, hell arrives.

Last week was the hell week of all hell weeks in my entire Ateneo life....

My internet provider has betrayed me for days starting during my big B-day. I guess I’ve been so used to having net access everyday that it becomes too much of a necessity. Ugh, the struggle. Fortunately, I have it back and I can finally blog about my birthday week.

I spent most of it with my family because I really didn’t want too much fuss over it. I was just happy spending time with them and eating loads of good food.

Uhm… the...

Yesterday, I found myself reunited with my High School friends to execute our little surprise adventure for one of my best friends, Sarah. A few days before, my partner-in-crime Jazzy and I (picture on the right) wanted to have some kind of surprise for Sarah. It was just very fitting because we also wanted to see each other and celebrate the end of our school year. Finally, we came up with the perfect surprise adventure ala Amazing Race. Whoopee. Problem is we had to recruit a little bit more than ten people for a flawless execution. And since it was terribly short notice for everyone, we were a bit apprehensive about the participants. Oh well. Being the resourceful, quick-thinkers that we were (haha), we were able to make do, despite only a few who confirmed. And I am soooo happy that most of my and Sarah’s friends were there to help out. Thank you so much, loves!

What a loooong day. I just finished two crazy finals, so thank God for that. I just want to rest! Actually, the past few days have been extremely looong. After pulling another all-nighter with my POS53 groupmates last Friday, the next few days have been devoted to studying for my finals. However, before the stress that is this week, I still had the chance to hang out with the crazy BlueRep gang for Yen‘s debut held at Coconut Palace. (Yen played Sharpay in the recently held High School Musical.) The best part was the theme: Storybook. My friend,...
