some days you feel good…ought to blog about it!

February 20th, 2006

so what’s hap i’m happy again. first off, my kids in the debate soc. did a pretty good job at the 13th MPDC. we were this close ( as in imagine my thumb and forefinger almost kissing each other ) to bringing home the cup once more.but all’s good, i know in my heart they did all they can plus i’m pretty sure they enjoyed the tourney ( a.k.a. kicking asses ) so i’m proud ( i wish you could see how swollen my heart is right now…uhh i’m not sure if the expression is acceptable or that it means actually how i want it to mean…if you got any problem with this one feel free to see me). first runner- up, best speaker and best debater of the competiton, best adj…whew the whole contingent had something to boast really but my boys never boast about anything though, sadly they are more inclined to underrating themselves for some freakin’ reason.

the other day i was looking for someone i could talk to about my predicament, sadly the person was not there but luckily someone nice spared his time listening to my rantings which is a relief really…nothing much was resolved but it did give me better perspective of things or problems i don’t even know what ( yeah bummer). but to that person who pretended he wasn’t busy for a pretty screwed up me, THANKS!

i should’ve written about this ages ago, i just never had the time and energy to.i have these really cool people who decided to be in the habbit of buying me coffee, cookies and donuts everytime they go out. it’s just not any coffee ( spell nescafe 3 in 1 ) but the most famous coffee for yuppies in town. who wouldn’t be happy? i mean if you convert that to pesos, that will be around 70 pesos.70 pesos everytime, whew that’s a lot and i’ve never even done anything for these guys.besides the coffee and pastries, i also get a lot of laughing from them…kinda like being in a comedy bar only i drink coffee instead of beer. how’s that? doesn’t anyone want to trade lives with me yet? bite me! hahaha

bits and pieces…

February 15th, 2006

february is my second favorite month of the year, the first being december because of christmas and my birthday. february because it’s the love month pretty obviously and unlike some people who detest it because they are not in a relationship ergo no reason to celebrate and claim they’d rather have themselves fired at in luneta, i celebrate it regardless of my circumstance or status ( if this is another disorder, i’m not complaining!!!).

so what happened on the vday? nothing big actually. i got a rose not from any guy who should be drooling over me (what a pity!) but from people who made me attend some colloqium ( i had some fun though…can’t miss that if you’re with wacky people in a supposedly solemn gathering…yeah, spell disaster). and then there’s a very inspiring letter from a friend. it actually boost the egotistic me.

and then there was a dinner with close, close friends ( former students )the next day. wonderful isn’t it? not from my end because earlier that day i vomited thrice. i don’t recall eating anything weird but i had the worst stomach ever. so i aborted the dinner. they went on without me and as if adding salt to injury, they told me they had so much fun etc. etc. i feigned excitement while being told so!

before the exciting ending of this gibberish, let me just complain about something at work ( misplaced? not so…it happened a day before the wonderful vday!). geez, sometimes you just wanna blast people’s head off for not thinking. this has to do with reservations of venue for programs. some people just do not study their schedules they endanger very important activities. sometimes i feel this workplace has sackful of ironies. there is this motto on excellence and campaign for critical thinking but when there’s an activity that forwards it ( not all though, just the ones i’m involved in ) they just could not prioritize it, damn!!! then again it could just be me…no sense of urgency in what i do… actually there is, it just doesn’t show or it’s just not so strong because i’m so tired i need a looooooooong break ( yes, deviation does not just happen in stats and psych, also in blogs ).

now, this is the exciting part. this is the real vday celebration for me. 4 not so single girls ( not that our statuses are " it’s complicated" but that 1 of us is super attached ) made true our promise to date on vday. the plan was carried out real fine. it appeared we were just not single and in my mind fabulous, but also extremely popular that night ( i welcome smirks and what have you!!!). it’s like the 4 of us were waving back and saying hi every now and then. while i theorize that we’re popular, my other friend concluded this is just a very small city we’re in and like evrybody knows everybody. regardless, it was a fun night especially when we’re seated under some roots with bright bulbs ( go figure!).
