against the flow

my forehead is partly numb from sepak takraw, my PE class this sem. we were practicing headings.

thank god for endorphins.

i took the exam, answered it as best as i could, and last but not the least, i didn't prepare for it.. it wouldn't be 'matsu' if i studied! hahahhaha

so anyway, during english class this afternoon, we got our results.. the test was 90 points. passing is 45.. an hour and a half to finish it. people were copying like mad from their seatmates but i didn't. well, mebbe a few numbers..

we checked them all, counted the mistakes.. i got a measley 74. and yet, i was still third highest. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.. wala nga kong textbook eh!! hahahahahahhahahahah!

joy.

i was treated to heavenly guitar music by this graduating dude in the conservatory, accompannied by a guitar professor. ASTIG. as in, ASTIG. SOBRA. as in drop jaw "whoa-ness"... WHOA. now im in a computer shop with my guitar batchmates after eating in some eatery. ok naman. i heard that amoebiasis is kinda the popular thing here so... goodluck to me

lotsa stuff happenin.. haha

after conforming for sometime, im finally getting comfy with my style here in UST. im beggining to wear "the usual" clothes that i used to wear.. i brought my ethnic stuff and a small collection of necklaces.. if i brought em all, baka mawala, masira, whatever lang.. hehe

nakapasok akong educ bldg ng naka tsinelas lang. wee. not hte rubber slippers, i wore the ethnicky slippers that i got from kuya dennis. astig. i wore black socks para at least mukhang black shoes. there's a uniform rule in UST ya know.

she was at mayric's. sat with her. hours went by and we had a great time talking. friends cracking jokes, sharing stories, sarap. saya.

then, naisip ko. "i'm gonna write sumthin." it's been a while and i didnt know what to write. then from across the table, about a couple of feet away, i see her smile.

scribble scribble.

"your smile glistens brilliantly in the dimly lit room
as i gaze in wonder at your eyes, twinkling brightly in the gloom.

9/16/04 6:45pm"


the note dint have my name.

i tried getting hold of her wallet or sumthin so she could read it a later date, but to no avail.

hours passed on.

time to go home. it was raining. my friends and i parted ways and said our goodbyes. i walked her home. as usual. good thing she lives on my street.

we walk. walked under the rain. how i wish i had my umbrella. then she'd be closer to me. hahahaha

i thought of something, anything, to secretly give her the note. even tried closing her "opened" zipper on her backpack but she looked back. dang.

goodbye. another date, another place, another note prolly.

whenever there's an earthquake, im ALWAYS asleep. so i never felt an earthquake in my whole dang existence. WHY OH WHY??? hehe

well, ren and kyle felt it and they woke up in a jiff. that was around 3am this morning. i slept like a rock. they tried getting me up but no luck there.. they were about to exit the door when i suddenly opened my eyes. "huy san kayo pupunta?" i look at the clock and it says around 3-ish oclock.

"jan ka lang ba? lumindol kaya!" they said.

"diiii ngaaaaa?" i replied.

wahahahahha..

i saw the notebook with my friends from the conservatory. we were all guys. haha. 5 guys watching a chick flick. how queer.

on the way from the condo, i saw this dirty abandoned anklet on the road. really filthy lookin. GOOD. i was checking it out when jonah, my blockmate, told me to get a move on. i hoped that no none would get it when i get back.

stephen treated us all to orbitz and movie tickets. he gets 22k monthly as allowance. wow.

i found the movie to be very well written, even though i havent read the book. i plan to buy the book now. hehe.. but i think it aint as tear jerking as a walk to remember. that book/movie ROCKED. m/

went to mayrics, just to hang out.. eat.. chill after a long day.

i walked with stephen going home since we both live in the same condo building. and lo and behold, the anklet still sits there untouched. not anymore! hahahaha!

washed it up really good and tada! i now have a total of 10 anklets. i only bought 1.. the rest were given or picked up. hehe. actually yung isa tali ng buhok pero nakalimutan sa mayrics. so i put it to good use.

yun lang for today, nothing special.

she could be lesbo.

i slept the whole afternoon. it's gonna ba a loooong night ladies and gentlemen.
