i have this penchant for giving my pets outlandish names. my latest victim: a stray kitten i adopted and called baka. wherever in the world will you see a cat that is a cow at the same time?wahahahahaha!!!
tita wanted to name him meow but i differed and argued that it's a bit overrated and very corny. she even insisted that the kitten likes it because he respond whenever she calls it by that name. heck, it's like their generic name already and all the cats in the world knew about it since birth!hahaha! then mon suggested ariel or surf, after some detergent soap product. but he was too late! i was already calling my new adopted friend baka. besides, he already had his fair share of naming our pets peculiarly. case in point: his beloved chunky, named after some corned beef brand. hehehe.

i went to insular life in alabang yesterday. they called me last week and told me to drop by their office to take an exam and be interviewed for a job i didn't apply for. it turns out their HR department had searched my resume on jobstreet.com and found my "qualifications" suited for their job opening.
and so, i took the exam and after a couple of hours i was interviewed by the HR manager. she seemed pretty much eager to hire me, told me that they needed a political science graduate for the position. after a split minute pause towards the end of the interview, i ask the HR manager if it is okay for them that i am studying. she said yes, although i have to make some adjustments on my class schedule. but since i am already enrolled and it is an impossibility to ask for any schedule adjustments on any of my class, i asked if they can give me some work schedule adjustments instead. after all, my classes are just twice a week. unfortunately, they cannot (or rather will not) compromise their schedule, specially for my job because it is very much demanding and it requires a considerable amount of "dedication". she told me to give them a call the moment i rescheduled my classes.
a prospect job gone. in any case i don't feel any regret because, as i've mentioned earlier, i never really applied for it so i reckon it is not a wasted opportunity after all. besides, i am now married (take note,hehehe) to graduate school and we are a package deal. you hire me, you hire graduate school as well. hehehe. di bale, marami pa namang jobs dyan na flexible ang sked sa nag-aaral :)

true, grad school is a bitch..if you let it take over your entire life.but i refuse to, hell no! so i'm back. hahahaha!! i guess part of the reason i cut short my supposed semester-long hiatus is that i'm done with the first chapter of david mitrany's book, something i least expected given my sluggish reading pace and my short attention span. yupi!one chapter down, two more chapters to go. hahaha!
enough of this shit, i want to share you something.
my opinion: the singing is good, the lyrics might be a bit obscene to some but i like the honesty of it. aaminin ko, medyo naharass ako nung una kong narinig. hehehe. just never mind the video. halata namang tamang trip lang sya.hahaha!

i may not be updating for the next couple of days because i have to work on my book report in IS 290 (and i only have less than a month to prepare!) and essay reports in anthro225. prof. ronas is a little intimidating and if i screw up on my presentation in IS 290 he might eat me alive. this is toxicity at its purest!
by the way, i am once again cavite-based and unemployed. i'd rather go home everyday than stay in quezon city for five whole days knowing that my family is just two hours away from me. just realized how important they are after an entire day of roaming around UPD without anyone to talk to. *sniff* i can bare the workload of graduate school and a full time job than being alone. wala na nga kong friends, lalayo pa ako sa pamilya ko kahit pwede namang hindi. it seems lola gave me a very serious psychological trauma. hahahaha!
very well, i see you when i see you!!!

jayson informed me through SMS that he'd found in youtube.com a clothing line commercial featuring charo ronquillo who happens to be, after the successful career of anna bayle, the only pureblooded filipina to penetrate the international fashion industry to date. looking a little like kate moss, she was able to impressed the fashion world after finishing third in ford supermodel of the world some two or three years ago. although her career path seemed to be going more commercial than haute couture, i am very hopefully to see her on the runways of christian dior and prada nonetheless. we'll see in the future then :) for the meantime, watch this vid.

nakakalulungkot man isipin ngunit tila nakakalimutan na ng karamihan ang mahalagang araw na ito dahil tila itinuturing na lamang itong isang ordinaryong selebrasyon. magkagayon man, mabuhay tayong mga pilipino! sa kabila ng lahat, heto pa rin tayo at lumalaban sa buhay! pagbunyi ang ating kalayaan!

my solitary quest to the world of the cerebral is now on. hekhek. and it started in the heart of up diliman, palma hall. all thanks to my former job, i was able to endure three hours (yes, i was soo excited) without uttering a single word to anyone (except for the slightly peevish undergrad taking survey regarding the new registration process) while waiting for my class to start. fortunately avemar tan (a former schoolmate), who is also in her first year on the MIS program, is in my anthro class. kaya medyo at home na din ako.
i realized how much of my brain cells deteriorated during my academic hiatus when jocano asked each of us of our idea of anthropology. to begin with, it didn't occur to me during college to take an anthro elective because janine reminded me incessantly that anthro in up manila is restricted to them behaviour science students.madamot na bata! wahahahahaha! hence i do not have a concrete idea on the said disciple. so when it was my turn to answer, i just randomly said my thoughts on culture, history and evolution of culture through examination of artifacts cheverlu chenelin!i'm not even sure if the language i spoke was english, filipino or mandarin. but i'm pretty sure half of my answer is in gibberish. hahaha!
jayson is right, graduate school is very much different from undergrad. the class is smaller and the students are more serious. well then i should start telling myself to act like a confident graduate student and forget the awkward undergrad student that i was.

how can a moron possibly win pbb teen!tsktsk...the hell i care if to some robi sounded like a trapo (traditional politician) on his appeal to the voters but he irrefutably deserves to win! to make an imbecile like ejay win by virtue of poverty is utterly disappointing. for crying out loud they could have let any of the two girls win instead!! like i always say, the finale can either make or break a movie or a tv show. and in this case, pbb teen edition plus turned into some biodegradable refuse in a split second.
i'm sure if kris will interview ejay one of these days, she'll gonna give that tired sigh and roll her eyes like she always does whenever she talks to stupids and retards. i subliminally love kris' guts! ha! from now on, i'll never watch any tv special related to this pbb edition! and most importantly, this pbb season is completely erased from my consciousness. as far as i am concerned, pbb teen edition plus NEVER exist. sayang, nasayahan pa naman sana ako sa batch na to.
watch this video instead. something from madtv entitled porn star registration.stephnie weir forever.hahahaha!!!

a year ago, michael adrid signed a covenant to stay gay for eternity. the contract was signed by neah reyes, approved by jerick medrano, and received by mhare junasa. i, febbie flores, and ralph basinang received a copy of it for documentation. however the copy furnished to me was the only one preserved.
like all confidential documents such as those from NSC and CIA, the said covenant will only be released to public after a certain period of time (in the case of this document, a year) for the academic purposes. hence, as the sole keeper of the only existing copy of this document, i took the liberty to present this seminal legal paper in this blog. as a matter of fact, a thorough discussion of this document will be included in the curriculum of law students around the world this year.
NOTE: this hoax document was created out of boredom during one of our last classes in college. whatever claims we did in this thing have no legal bearing whatsoever. also, all names and insignia that appeared in this "document" is not directly connected to us and were only used for our amusement.my apologized if some think it's offensive.
i miss my happy college days :) i miss the way we were!

i love this season of pbb (pinoy big brother) teen!!i love it so much, i even bothered to mention it here. haha!!
so now, here's my appeal to my loyal readers:
please vote for robi domingo!! he very much deserve to be this season's teen big winner regardless of his status in life.
and for the love god please DO NOT make ejay win just because he's poor. he doesn't have personality to begin with! the only things he do there is to chase valerie and be lame. the show can survive without him.
for once people don't make poverty an excuse. in fact, poverty is NEVER a valid excuse. ang pera ini-earn yan, hindi yan pinagmamakaawaan!

looking back on my expenses since i started working, i can say that almost 60-70% of my personal budget goes to food. sure i love clothes and books and movies, but whenever i thought of purchasing any of them the enticing sight of a steaming lasagna or a savory yakisoba interferes and i end up buying it instead.
although i admit being "victimized" somehow by the ideal size of women imposed by society, i still eat like a cow whenever i get a chance to. for one i will never sacrifice my passion for delicious food over artificial standards created by some bunch of insecure people. i'm being paradoxical as always i know, but if you love food as much as i do you'll understand. hahaha!! i also made a promised to myself to try all sorts of food i could possibly afford to gratify my curious tastebuds. each bite i take on foods foreign to my taste is a "eureka" moment for me which is as rewarding as finding a dvd copy of a rare wong kar wai movie. hmm *droll*
i may be damned for being a glutton, but i'm ready to risk my slot in heaven for a luscious piece of chocolate cake. binging is a bliss.. hmm....*droll*

as sun tsu mentioned in the art of war, you should know who your enemies are before launching an attack. hence i googled my professors this semester. technology is the new CIA. hahahaha!! then i found out that the felipe jocano who'll be teaching my anthro225 class is the son of the f.landa jocano!!!what a relief!of course having an icon for a mentor is a huge privilege but you have to prove to him/her that you deserve his/her tutelage and that is definitely a major pain in the ass. hahahaha!! but then again this guy is still a spawn of a legend. so most probably he is also as cerebral as his father, only younger and hopefully hipper. waaaaa!!!!! no matter how i deny it, i don't know what to expect! this is more scary than i perceived it would be.wahahahahahaha!!!
oh dear i wish my much-awaited return will not traumatized me! i'm keeping my fingers tightly crossed.

it's freshman all over again! only this time no energetic FBC (freshman block coordinator) ready to help anytime. perhaps my nine months of isolation in lola's made me rather immune to being alone i never realized i finished enrolling all by myself (save for some quick chit chat with familiar faces). abating, if not completely curtailing, dependence to people is my ultimate goal now. like ditch, the so-called stand alone complex had infected me too and i'm loving it. hehehe...
***
my feet are killing me after what seemed to be a mile long walk. the enrollment may not have been as grueling as i expected, but i still miss the comfortable enrollment life i had in UP Manila.i miss the small enclave of UPM where all the offices essential during enrollment, save for the office of the registrar, are just a stone throw away from each other. assessment, advising and other enrollment stuff are all in one roof so it's like amazing race when it's already two minutes before the offices close! i kinda miss my registration assistant stint during college as well. i get to enlist all my preferred subject without the hassle of queuing for hours in a badly ventilated area during registration. i don't have to kill for a GE slot, thank you very much! above all, i miss the free food and the overflowing candy supply that comes with the job!!!hehehe...
***
i'm a little apprehensive i enrolled anthro225 this semester. felipe landa jocano will be teaching it. yes, THE f.landa jocano that we know from our elementary and high school textbooks! it feels like meeting harry potter in flesh. for a while he's only a name to me and to be honest i really never thought he's still alive! he's 78 years old by the way. i am really scared, but at the same time thrilled, with this academic adventure i put myself into. well i reckon it's just a stand alone complex symptom. hehehe.

i reckon i'll be seeing some familiar UPM faces on my classes :)
