Today, I went to school. Why? English defense of some of my blockmates. It wasn't that bad though. I arrived at around 9:00. I was immediately met by Angel and Miguel asking if I would borrow a projector for them. Ack... I'm not the class's lapdog like what Ingco told me. (Thanks, dear!) I couldn't say no though. I felt obliged to do what is necessary. We went to Escaler, where the creepy not-so-nice old man stays to borrow the cable for K304. What luck? Angel charmed herself the cable but she wouldn't be able to use it for today. Haha Anyway, I didn't stay long for class though. I went to the library to help Leonard and Jurmaine in our Filipino documentary.

In the library, we went through the numerous lotto articles and stumbled on some hillarious topics. The most memorable is the "Beheading of a couple who were assumed to be 'aswangs'." That is so funny. Haha!

By 10:30, I went back to the classroom. Four reports had already been done. Argh... The class was so boring. I just finished writing my journal in Filipino. Reg and Ingco studied Math. Drilon and some of the other people with laptops were playing games.

Highlights of today's class:

1. Michael Ruiz sang! (God, he's good! Hm... I wonder he dedicated it to. >wink wink<)
2. Caira made us laugh. People finally know her.
3. Angel wasn't able to report. Darn...

After the class, me, Reg and Ingco went to Gayuma for lunch. Hm... The food was ok. The service... That's another story. Haha! While there, I drew a dog and a ladybug. I also wrote the equation for Math. Haha! Reg and Ingco studied Math. Er... Haha! It took a while to get our orders and well... me and reg got our orders mixed up. Haha!

After eating there, we went back to Ateneo.

Reg went to the library to meet with Paul. I went with Ingco to the computer lab. She finished her Filipino while I basically played. Haha! Afterwhich, we went home.

Anyway, that is how the day went for me today.

For the past few days, I had been quite busy with schoolwork. Argh... I hate life. Honestly, I wonder what my purpose is. Is my purpose to experience the things I am not suppose to be and therefore become what I am like how Evil is able to bring out Good?

I feel sad. I don't know why. I want something that I cannot have. I want to say something but I cannot. I want to do something but I cannot. Is life selfish to me? Is this a test? I don't know. My heart is pumping triple time. I don't know what to do. There's alot of things I don't know and cannot do. This brings me closer and closer to believe some lines of William Blake's work : "To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour."

The country is in shambles... That's the only way I could view the country's status.

If there were anything wise said yesterday, it was the words said by the governor at Southern Leyte calling for people to set aside their own selfishness and to pay attention to a much graver situation which is the landslide disaster that hit her place.

Something amazing about this event was that Sir Acuna was able to predict them. Haha! Perhaps his stories aren't all that unrealistic. The situation reminds me of Paradise Lost. Rebel Angels and the Angels of God fighting for what they believe in. Hm... Perhaps I would use this as my topic for my paper. Not a bad idea don't you think?

Haha! Well... Gabriela, the play of UP, was very appreciatable. Haha! It shows the value of perspective when it comes to story telling. For example, was Gabriela the brains behind Diego or was she just a puppet that was used to encourage the Katipuneros to move on? But when I thought of the situation more, I figured that the true question is what would have happened if Gabriela wasn't there.

Some Serious Thoughts for the Day:

Depth is relative in perspective since we view things, the way we were taught to or trained to. As we have more and more serious talks in life, it becomes a usual for us thus making it a norm.

Just a thought. Take a break from your usual activities and perhaps ponder upon life. You'll see that life leaves a lot of unanswered questions, but, aside from that, it had already answered a lot of them.

If love is a disease, then I don't want to be better. Just a thought since I am sick right now. Haha!

Anyway, last saturday, me, Nicole and Reg went to Xavier for the variety show. Earlier that day, I went to Ateneo for my Filipino class. Haha! I stayed there until 3:00. I went to Xavier through Mara. Thanks, dear! She was going to Avalon.

At the fair, I saw much of my batchmates. I got the tickets for variety show from Javeson. Afterwhich, I hanged out at Carlos's stand and spent an hour there and decided to wait up for Nicole and Reg at Ash Creek.

After looking like an idiot, reading Paradise Lost at Starbucks for an hour, they finally arrived.

The Variety show was sub-standard. I found the recent shows better. We basically spent the evening talking. It's weird but yes, we spent the night talking.

Filipino sucks. I hate the fact that I'm getting the hardest time of my entire educational life right now! Er...

Hm... Probably OC-ing the English Research, I chose to really show Ma'am Lumbera what I can do when I put my mind into it. Haha!

I hope that my Filipino task 2 gets approved. It's really killing me. Er...
