Disclaimer: Some words may be inapproaite or used incorrectly. This is due to my imbibing a Cosmopolitan and an Absolute Black Currant mixed with Sprite, and the fact that my family (based on my ahya’s experience) gets sleepy when one drinks. Another thing, I woke up at 6 am, so really, I’m sleepy. I’m thinking that the reason I’m sleepy. Hopefully, that’s the reason. Morning’s Learnings It’s been such a long day filled with surprises. Early in the morning I heard about MTR W/O MTR UR MTR. (Guess what that means!) Carl—or is it Carlo—swears that this is the most effective method for others to learn, because they learn something without the prior knowledge that they’re actually learning something. An example he gave was ALICE. A software designed for kids that allowed them to create stories, only they just don’t create stories, they also learn Visual Basics and the like. Imagine, little girls and boys learning Visual Basic. Head fake is another term he introduced to the lot of us, taking it from its American football context. *grins* Eyeshield 21 rocks. I knew what it meant in the football lingo. All in all, I had fun. I got a lot of white-paper feedbacks, and met a lot of people. Thank God Jackie Kawsek and Dana were there to ease the process. So, there was Jauro, Julianne, Anton, Bea and Steph for the upperclass men who facilitated the whole event. So, for anyone who’s interested in formation activities, who aspires to be the change, to be the start of change, or simply wants to discover what he can contribute to soceity by being a leader in his/her own way, then tell me because I’ll drag your arse to the next GA.
Seriously, something sticks more to our minds when we get amazed or surprised by something. Think. Batman I watched Batman. Again. And guess what? I found it as amazing as the first time I watched it. I gasped, still, at the same moments I did back then. I laughed at the same scenes. But more importantly, noticed the foreshadowing that was used for the traitor. I just feel bad for the P180 my mom paid. HUSH, please. Shopping=Anti-Stress You read that right. Since Friday night was a big stress night for me (good thing I was too numb and tired to react already and get emotional about it) where-in there were two different parts, I thought to de-stress myself by rewarding myself with spending my allowance. I bought a pink off-shoulder, and a maong skirt. Both were on sale, but I still spent about P1200 for everything. *sniff* That made a dent, seriously. I am so poor. Pre-Party I got to spend an hour or two at home after buying dinner at McDo (mcFlurry, fries, taro pie) and Lumpia from DEC before proceeding to Metrowalk (sp? Is it one word or two word?) to check out the place for September. Not what I expected, but, hey, who am I to talk? My ahya had a successful and a fun birthday there. I have no experience whatsoever with actually drinking with friends (except those two instances *sheepish smile*) hence I am quite at a loss on what to do and expect. Guitar Hero anyone? Sure ball na yun. I only wish Ahya buys Rockband. Asa pa ako. *shrugs* But he said so... he might. *laughs* Right. 30-50 guests? Buffet? Whatever. Not all mine, after all Andre has to invite five, but it would me mainly my party. Ahya and Achie Cel would have to invite their friends and stay outside the VIP room. In the process, my ahya took it as his responsiblity to start doing something about my alchohol tolerance. As my first pre-party drink with him, he ordered a Cosmo. I didn’t liked it. Why? Because mine, they finally realized when they had a sip, was too strong. We ordered three, one for us each, and mine was the bottom part of the shaker. Diagnosis: It was shaked properly. When we got home, we went straight to their unit, and they mixed Absolute Black Current (40% alchohol) with Sprite and made me finish the glass. Ooh, I was able to finally taste Frostings. Yumm. Still, I liked Sonia’s Elvis better. p.s. I was supposed to write something about relationships this week. Unfortunately, because of lack of time and my schedule being filled to the brim... Eck. Seriously. I’m not done with my Filipino paper for Tarong and my critical paper for English. In fact, I have yet to choose whether I shall write about cotraceptives (which I am for) or argue against “Scholarship in Ateneo being founded on Elitism”. Remember a post I did for the latter just this summer? Yes, that. p.s.s Who can manage to get 2 upperbox A (or better) tickets for next Sunday’s game? UST/ADMU? XD This is Granger logging off. *laughs* Paano kasi Harry Potter was brought up in one of our classes, and I suddenly remembered Awi/Monty. To Awi: Miss you, dear. Mickey: Ikaw rin. Hay.
