Last Monday, me and my Guidance groupmates practiced for our tableau-styled reporting at a classmate's condominium unit at Lepanto St. I was amazed. I never thought I'd meet a classmate who actually lives in a condo, to think we are just students. Yeah, her parents must be making good money.

Anyways, I have always imagined myself living independently. Just imagine me... >insert daydream here<

Haha. I can only imagine myself coming home drunk from a rockin' rave party. And I only have myself to treat me from a nasty hangover. :(

I also imagine my brother paying me regular visits, bringing me steaming hot pizza.

For these dreams to come true, I must first earn my masters degree. and I must first finish my tertiary education.

Well, I must really ace my tests first. I got an effin' 2.75 on my Educational Technology exam. Screw that 20-item enumeration part. XD

Ano nangyari dito?
Sino sa atin nagbago?
Maglakbay sa simula,
Balikan natin and dating mundo.




Dani will be on a forever leave at work because she is tired and she had the courage to make 'though choices'.

"I am the most selfish bitch in the whole world. All I think of are my feelings, my reputation, everything about ME. So now, I am going to think about you. I am going to let you be what you want to be--happy. And me, I am gonna sulk until I feel happy about you being happy, even if you being happy is something that does not include me. I really don't like you hearing me cry, especially when I cry not because I am angry but because sad." -Nineteen in Pigtails

Okay, so that didn't make any sense. hahaha. Anyways here's a wrap-up:

My mom wanted me to wear pigtails, so I wore one for her. I guess its because my mom want to see me become a child again (even just for the physical appearance), she's quite amazed how I grew up fast.

I tried to cook mojos, but my cooking skills aren't going anywhere better, so my mojos suck. I even bewitched my brother to sleep thirty-minutes later just to taste my mojos so he could give an honest opinion about them, and he says my mojos suck. I love my brother. haha.

First thing me and my brother do when I reach home: we turn on the dvd and watch House. My brother loves me so much, I can get him to watch House. My brother is a sixth grader, btw.

So there, aside from the pigtails and the sudden outburst of senseless emotions, everything is pretty mundane.

I must sleep now, I am having bad feelings I am getting puffy eyes and major headache tomorrow. Sleep till it hurts no more!!! :)

In our Guidance subject today, we were asked to bring bond papers and crayons to class. The activity was to draw an object that would best represent you as a person. And this is what I drew:

So there, I hate giving disclaimers, but please forgive me for my lame art skills. Lol. After giving thirty minutes to draw, we were assigned to a classmate to share his own explanation about his drawing. My partner's symbol was a bamboo, because bamboos are flexibles and all that. After a few minutes, it was my turn to explain my drawing. I sure know why I drew that object, I just don't know what the object is called, really. I was asking my partner, "Alam mo ba kung ano ang tawag dito?" And she answered, "No." hahaha.

Go figure my explanation about my drawing. It was enough explaining it once to a complete stranger. And through the wonderful world of the web, I found out that I drew a Jack in the Box.

I managed to steal another week off from work. I feel my managers are pissed off at me, but I really don't care about what they think of me right now. This week is mine.

This last week feels like its the last week of my life. Imagine me, terminal, with a week left to live. Dani must do all these things now, or it will be too late.

I am so lost. Jason Wade makes me cry. and yeah, rainy seasons are sad.

this time all I want is you
there is no one else who can take your place
I've seen enough, and its never enough
it keeps me leaving needing you

For the past weekend, I did nothing but watch Korean movies, Korean soaps, and everything Korean. I also sored my eye to death watching my favorite anime of all time, Kare Kano. Watching Kare Kano made me download its soundtrack, which I think will take weeks to finish because of my faulty dsl connection. Pfft. After draining myself with all these Asian pop madness, I decided to go western this time. And that's how I bumped into House MD. :)

I was amazed, I never thought I'd get hooked up with the drama which talks about nothing but medical terms I never really heard of. Haha. I suddenly remembered being disgusted with Grey's Anatomy because its popularity made it into some mainstream drama, and I never really understood their dilemmas. So I never became Meredith's fan.

I am so getting bootleg copies of House MD series. I know, bootlegs kill the economy. You don't need to stress that. And I know, I am a laggard.

In other news, I am going back to work, which means I am going back to my un-social life, if that is even a word. I am not ranting, okay?

All in all, the past two weeks was fun. I get to go home early. I get to go home whenever I want. My bag was light, because I don't have to bring my set of uniform and an extra shirt with me. I get to bring my digicam almost everyday. I was a student.

I am going to miss this. :)

My Java uploader failed to load ever since I upgraded my Firefox browser to Firefox 3. So logically, I thought of using IE as a substitute when posting gazillions of pictures. The rub is, I became so used to Firefox I forgot what its like to use IE. Plus, my IE is a passe version. I want to upgrade my IE to its latest version, but my OS does not support the latest version of IE. Grrr...

Don't ask me if I have Java installed on my pc, because I had it installed ages ago. And don't ask me if I have verified my installation, because I have verified my Java too.

So there, I guess my logical thinking is correct. Java runs on my IE browser. Enjoy the pictures. :)

is IE love? Java is love.

Excuse me, but I still have a report to prepare for. XD

A month has passed since schooling began and I can count with my ten fingers the times I came to school on time. Its either I am late, or the professor is late. I really want to promise myself that in the succeeding days of this semester, I will come to school on time. I really want to promise that to myself.

Funny how this appears on my screen everytime I access this site

How my professors are in...

1. Filipino Stenography
He's Gay. Period. Aside from the basics of Filipino Stenography, he teaches the deeper meaning behind our national anthem, and the school hymn. Tinuturo din niya sa min kung paano magkamot, umupo, bumati ng 'Magandang Araw' and all the other petty things you do everyday. Yhang, hulaan mo kung sino ito!

2. Ecology
He will make you feel like you are his stupidest student in his class with his expression that goes, "YES, I ALREADY KNOW THAT" or "We ALL KNOW THAT." He will call you for a recitation but he will not even give you a chance to think, he wants his answer quick.

3. Educational Technology
The moment she saw my registration card stamped with 'KATAGA-PUP Honors Society', she threatened me that she will fail me unless I participate actively at her class. Wth. I don't participate in any class. I just keep my thoughts to myself, yet I make sure I get good grades.

4. Principles of Guidance
In her 30 years something in the industry, she HAS NOT FAILED ANYONE in her class. Cool, huh? She requires no projects, no assignements, no reporting, and all that crap. The best part is, her essays are answerable in one sentence only. COOOOOLLLLLLLL!!!!

5. Home Economics.
Requires too much. Very particular about the format and all that formatting essentials. She requires her assignments handwritten! Grrr...

6. Bookkeeping for Highschool Students
Its like understanding Accounting for the first time. The award for best Accounting professor goes to her.

7. Buhay at Gawain ni Rizal
Three hours of agony. She is just plain boring.

8. Methods of Teaching Office System Subjects
Paulit-ulit. paulit ulit.


Ang dami kong assignment due next week. Wala lang. :D

I don't really know the REAL story. Some says a total of 20 freshmen are related to the crime, some says there were only 8. My point here is, the policemen shouldn't have cuffed the 'offenders' in front of the whole class, and the professor should have done something about the arrest. First of all, the policemen have not yet proven anything against the students arrested. Just imagine you being handcuffed in front of your whole class because of a crime you didn't commit. Who wouldn't be traumatized? One of my professors said that if she was the one handling that class during that time, she would have let the policemen (even Pres. Guevarra) wait until her class finishes. Its still her class anyway, and after all, she is still in control.

At Umagang Kay Ganda earlier today, Pres. Guevarra humbly admitted that indeed, our university lacks security. With a very limited budget that will cater to almost 10,000 students, faculty and other personnel, how will it suffice?

>insert rallying students here<

And now, as I proudly wear my uniform and ID on my way to school everyday, I must bravely face the prejudices of those narrow minds. Let us admit it, situations like this happens in YOUR university too, its just that, the media loves US.

PUPian ako. Peace tayo.
