Was that another week gone by?

Right now I'm really really annoyed at my comm3 groupmates. Let me correct that, I've been annoyed for weeks. Only one project to go and we're changing groupings. Can't wait. This last one though, is the most tedious. We're supposed to present a 10-minute fairy tale with a twist next Monday. The script's done and we've practiced once, but they want us to practice again the whole day Wednesday and on Sunday.
But, Wednesday is Ely's day, ne?
Ok, given that we have to make some of the props and stuff, but I've volunteered to make the backdrop for the presentation in the hopes of appeasing the gods but apparently that's not enough for them.

Now...must think of a really good excuse not to show-up in school on Wednesday. Text I'm sick, I suppose? Thesis shit? Bleargh! Whatever excuse I give won't suffice anyway. Bengki suggests I start invoking my age. 0_0

Last Sat was our 1st practice, I arrived late then didn't return after lunch. Yep, skipped out on them cos I didn't realize it was for the entire day.
I made plans to meet with my friend from Davao and her brother (Hi Pam, Hi Glenn!) who were here for some personal business.They were going back to Davao the next day, Sunday. Haven't seen them for two years. We had lunch at Chocolate Kiss and they asked to be toured around UP and so I did. We were walking around the Sunken Garden when the shit hit the fan. Some of my groupmates were there and of course asked where I've been. I didn't answer them properly since I was still with my friends. I just said tried to say I'm with people I couldn't leave.
Yesterday, I explained it to one of my groupmates whom I liked. Come to think of it, there's only one person I don't like in the entire group and she stands in as the leader in this project and they all defer to her.

By the way...did I say I was Sniffing Beauty---a-rugby-sniffing-minor-character-who-gets-whomped-by-the-prince-at-the-end?

Enough of comm3 for now.

A NOTE FOR OTHER PEOPLE WHO PASS BY MY SITE AND NEVER 'TAG' OR SIGN THE GUESTMAP (READ: OI! COUSINS!) Let me know you did pass by. It's not that hard to use the Tagboard,ne? X(

WOW... one entire week without blogging. Just because blogger is acting up and I've been busy and my internet card is almost depleted.
Anyway...

SUNDAY, I went to Cavite to visit my aunt and her boyfriend who just arrived from Negros Occ. and also to vote the next day.
I got some pasalubong food for my trouble (but not enough to share, sorry). And a couple of sweaters courtesy of my lola in the US.

The next day, MONDAY, my aunts and I voted early. And to answer a question I've been asked, No, I did not have a relative running for office.
In Cavite (in Bacoor, anyway), they apparently keep track of every constituent. My aunt told me a certain Kagawad had been asking for me since Friday the previous week, wanting to know if I was voting.
I felt compelled to vote.
I mean, I didn't know any of the darn candidates, much less care, but my aunts can be kinda scary when they insist you do something. I don't have to say that they are the figures of authority who stand in for my parents around here.
And I haven't voted in the last presidential or senatorial elections either.
Bengki says I share the blame for putting Erap in power cos I didn't vote then. =D

TUESDAY I stayed in Cavite almost the whole day house-sitting, watching brainless tv shows and trying to do the illustrations for the UGAT folio. I was able to leave there at 5pm got caught in rush hour mayhem and arrived here at 845pm, utterly useless. But stilll able to finish inking Bengki's drawing of Da and sleeping at around 3am.

Nothing noteworthy on WEDNESDAY except I skipped a meeting of my comm3 group as I was too tired.

THURSDAY was hellish because of the GRAIL recognition papers, but I know April had the worst of it.
It just sucked cos I had to think about the comm3 report/workshop and at the same time worry about the membersip list--doing minor "miracles" just so the requirements can be met.
Ended the day talking to Dell over iced coffee, iced tea and pita at the Oz cafe. And realized a few things I won't write here anymore.

On FRIDAY watched MIB2 with Bengki then went to UP for the GRAIL meeting which was okey except for the attendance, as usual.

Nothing for me on SATURDAY.

SUNDAY afternoon I watched Oedipus Rex for comm3. Anton Juan directed it so it was better than the other one we were required to watch for KAS1 back in our freshman days.
Bengki says I know I've been in UP too long when the plays start to repeat and I'm required to watch it again.
Realized I don't care much for tragedies.

(Ey Trish, Arlo was one of the actors in the chorus)

MONDAY I didn't even dare to leave the house cos of the SONA. Heard classes were suspended by 1pm. Yay.
But missed another comm3 meeting. My groupmates are so...zealous.

And on that note....





take the "what's my fault" quiz.

(and then browse around mewing.net. because laura is cool.)


sigh...I guess I am to most people cos I don't tell all, you hear?





take the antisocial test.


and go to mewing.net. because laura's feeling social.



And to end in a happy note...





take the death quiz.


and go to mewing.net. laura = great.

Don't you just hate it hate it hate it when people working towards the same ends are at cross-purposes?
I wish I can say more but I don't think it's exactly the right place to rant about it...
Arrgh...dammit.
I guess I just don't understand what's happening.
Nobody cares to tell me/us after all.
I just don't get it.
Maybe I should just stop worrying about it, dammit.

Never me mind.
sigh.

YAY! quizzes! quizzes to make me happy. O_O



I'm a Pac Man Frog!

Argentinian Horned frogs seem to have been designed for the sole purpose of eating as much as possible. They appear to consist of two main parts: a mouth and a stomach. This is probably where they got the nickname "PacMan". Their needs are fairly simple, a warm habitat in a simple plastic box or aquarium with some shallow water and a few rocks so that they can laze around all day suits them just fine. They don't mix well with other frogs, even in their own species, as they are just as likely to eat them.

What kind of Frog are you?

The rain just never stops!
Am I never gonna run out of excuses for thesis procrastination?
The summer was just too hot for thinking.
Now the weather is only good for sleeping.

The cats definitely agree with the sleeping bit.


As for the last entry...that was when blog was down but the cannot publish sign was not yet up and bengki wanted to know if only her blog was acting up. Apparently not.

bengki is forcing me to publish!

Which flock do you follow?

this quiz was made by alanna

This blog is proof of the eloquence of my thesis.
What eloquence, you say?
That answers your question right there.

My pet peeve this week: the 10-7-5 assignment for Comm3. It took me about two days to do the darn thing, using up a big chunk of time meant for thesis (yeah, right!).
10-7-5. Straight out of Oprah and Dr. Phil. (who?)
We're supposed to list down:
10 defining moments in our life
7 critical choices we made
5 pivotal people who have influenced us
and how all these affected us.
It's supposed to make us know ourselves better.
Uh-huh.
You think it's easy?
I dare you to try answering it!

On another note, our Prof texted everyone in class today saying we won't have class for three meetings because she's going to undergo a gall bladder operation. But still no break to speak of since we have class activities to prepare for. Comm3 can be so....
