"by the way, napanuod ko na yung slumdog millionaire. ang ganda tae... deserving"


all it takes is one simple text message to inspire me to really watch slumdog millionaire. with 8 oscar wins, who would doubt the genius of such a critically aclaimed film? so i promise myself that after this ResMeth hell is done, i would really watch this film and totally unwind from the hysteria of major subjects. gawd, i feel like im going to crack one of these days; school requirements are just so hellish - they decided to pile up all at the same time so as to drive us all insane.

so there, slumdog millionaire. i'll watch it very very soon.

no brainer

everyone's getting crazy these days. just tonight, my sisters began talking, through chat, about all our UPCAT grades. turns out, i got the highest language grade among the 4 of us. i got a whooping 82% for language proficiency hehe. why exaggerate with whooping? because, thanks to my math genius, i only got an incredible 3% on my math results. the huge difference is so palpable that an 82 seems like a god compared with 3% haha. if iam not mistaken, UP uses a zero-base grading system, so my score would be like 3/60 or something close (or even lower) to that. it is so shameful, i know. what can i do? i hate math and it loathes me. the feeling is mutual so there are no hard feelings at all haha. atleast i scored decently on the other exams. i got a good grade in reading comprehension, and surprisingly, a fair grade in science. too bad, i did not make the cut off. oh well, what's done is done. i am loving where i am right now anyway. i get to spend time with my high school turned college super friends, plus, i have met a lot of incredible friends in polsci. all's well that ends well :].


ok, back to business. enough UP talk hehe.

skul schucks

i badly need time, time and more time. i'am such a crammer that i deprive myself of good sleep every time we have major requirements to finish. grabe, how i wish i could fast forward this moment so that i'll be able to start with the resmeth requirement. that is the only subject i love studying right now. sobrang inspired ako with research, for the first time kina-career ko ang pagbabasa at pagaaral dito. i hope that inspiration somehow sifts through polthought. that subject is such a blah i cannot wait to get it over with. hindi lang siguro ako ginaganahan kay hegel. dibale, next paper ko si freud na, that would be way interesting compared with hegel.

mac-a-bebe

ever had a liking for something, but not actually craving to have it? i usually experience those moments. sometimes i do not want to own that ‘something’ just so the ‘goal of having it’ won’t disappear. much like the merchant in the alchemist who postponed his trip to mecca just so he could continue his dream of planning to go there. i know it’s a bit odd, but I bet people really experience it. the reason maybe is because there is still the un-materialistic side in us, which is already contented at just the liking/wanting stage. it is a mystic thing, really.

as i said, i frequently experience this (like when i see a good pair of shoes or something). but this wanting for a macbook is totally out of the question. i super want a macbook before i graduate. i am just so tired of bringing our laptop. that laptop is still in tip-top shape, but it is undeniably heavy :[. i want a macbook which would be lightweight plus virus free, so i won’t have to worry too much about corrupted files. i super want it talaga. i saw on their website that the price is now down to $999, which is less than 50k. but sometimes when i really want something, i usually don't get it :p. pero this is the only gadget that i reall, really want. i swear. i could live my life with out posh phones or an ipod, i just want a macbook. period. i know it's too much and that i am probably being avaricious right now, which is bad.

oh boy, this is daft and superficial.
