Stress

Hay. Just came from school. Kakatapos ko lang kasi mag-enroll. I must say, this is so far the most stressful registration I've experienced in UP. Ngayon lang ako inabot ng buong araw sa kakapila at pag-enlist. I guess kailangan ko nang masanay. At least 2 sems pa bago ako muling maging priority sa registration. And besides, maswerte na daw ako dahil naranasan ko ang CRS. Dati daw puro manual lang ang registration. I guess that's something to be thankful for. :)

Anyway, I read my friend's blog, but I somehow cannot post a comment on her blog (I have yet to master the inner workings of friendster blogging...hehe). So I guess I'll just put them here.

Hey Soul...I only found out about what happened today. It's kind of a hard situation, the one you're in right now. I wish I could give you some useful advice, but I'm not really an expert when it comes to that kind of matter. I guess the best I can offer is the usual shock absorption we used to do. Your Soul_1215 is just right here, ready to listen to everything (and as usual, absorb shock waves of emotion). Hang in there...

Sem Break :)

Just came back from Baguio. Hehe, ang lamig dun! Tapos nakalimutan ko pang magdala ng jacket (kumusta naman?). Pero ok lang, nag-survive naman ako. Ang ganda pala ng SM Baguio. It's probably the best-looking SM mall I've been to.

Tapos bukas, Tagaytay naman daw sabi ng mom ko. Gusto pa yatang mamili ng mga halaman dun. Hehehe. Pagkatapos next week naman may 2 games ang Granny Goose (favorite PBL team ko). Tapos may event pa sa November 3. Hehe, sinusulit ko talaga ang sembreak. Lalo na't mukhang mabigat ang load ko next sem...Bio 11 + Psych 115 ba naman. Tapos kukuha pa ako ng 2 GE na MST. Hay, good luck na lang. :)

Nga pala, kindly take a peek at my Friendster blog na din. Madami akong recent posts dun, although mas marami pa rin ang total number of posts ko dito. :)

Blog-surfing

I don't know if "blog-surfing" is really a word. But I did it anyway. I read my friends' blogs plus some other blogs as well. Nakakatuwa magbasa ng mga entries ng ibang tao. Kaya lang nasa okray mode na naman ako ngayon. Hehe... *evil grin*

I'm so happy. :) I already have tickets for the UAAP Cheering Competition. I'll be going with friends and other Maroon Maniacs. I really hope the UP Pep Squad wins this year. Ilang taon na din ang nakalipas since the Cheering crown was owned by Diliman. Sana it's our time ulit this year. UP Fight!

I'm also happy because the UPIS Junior Maroons made it to the Final 4. As of now, hindi pa alam kung sino ang makakalaban nila. Pero alam ko kaya nila yan. I have faith in the Juniors Team. Go UPIS!

Lastly, I uploaded some pics in my friendster account. Pinalitan ko na din yung primary pic ko. Hehe, hindi rin naman masyadong karir yung iba kong pics. :)

I'm Back...Again!

As expected, nabulok nanaman yung blog ko. I should really do away with my ningas-kugon attitude. Well anyway, we have no classes today so here I am adding another entry to my stagnant blog.
I'm really thankful that we have no classes today. For the past 5 days I've been very busy. Hindi pa ako nakakauwi ng bahay na mas maaga sa 8pm. What have I been doing? Well, mostly making banners for the UP Fighting Maroons and the UPIS Junior Maroons and going to their games to cheer for them. Buti na lang talaga sa Blue Eagle Gym lang ang venue ng mga games. Although it's much farther away from our house, the tickets are so much cheaper. Hindi naman ako gaanong namomroblema sa pagbili ng tickets, pero syempre ang laki din ng matitipid no?
Kapag hindi naman ako nanonood ng games or nag-iinternet para mag-post sa peyups.com, I keep myself busy with my hobby. Which is acads. Grabe, hobby ko na lang talaga ngayon ang acads. Oh well, I spent the most part of 10 years na puro acads lang ang inaatupag. Iba naman ngayong college!
Hay, I can't wait for the next game. It's on Thursday vs AdU. Sadly, I won't be able to watch the Juniors game because of my class. I'll be there siguro in spirit na lang. :)

Go Maroons!

The UP Fighting Maroons are currently on top of the standings! They have a 3-0 win-loss record:

July 9 - UP defeats UST 69-66. I mentioned this game in an earlier post. A very heartstopping game!

July 14 - UP defeats DLSU 61-56. Haha...Payback!!! DLSU was the team that shattered our hopes of a Final Four appearance last season. Plus, they are the defending champions! I am really happy for the Maroons with this win.

July 17 - UP defeats NU 81-59. Sadly, I wasn't able to watch this live because I had to go to the province (more about this later). Axel Doruelo (UP # 14) played his best game yet. He is now my favorite Fighting Maroon this season (together with Mika Vainio).

UP' s next game is this Saturday against UE. The team that beat us for the last Final 4 spot last season. It's a tough assignment, but I'm sure the Maroons can win this game! UP Fight!!!

By the way, I'm going to post a couple of UP cheers....Hehe, wala lang :)

U-nibersidad ng Pilipinas (8x)

Matatapang, Matatalino
Walang takot kahit kanino
Hinding-hindi magpapahuli
Ganyan kaming mga taga-UP!

U-nibersidad ng Pilipinas (4x)
U!

M-A-R-O-O-N-S!
Fighting Maroons
(Repeat 2x)
O-oh Fighting Maroons!
(Repeat 2x)
Go! Fight! Fighting Maroons!

Hey! UP Go! UP Fight!
Hey Let's Go Let's Fight!
(Repeat until tired :)

Back in Circulation

Grabe, it's been a long time since I last posted...

I just finished rearranging my bookcase. I found out that around 15 of my books had been borrowed but not yet returned. Most of them are Sidney Sheldons and Dan Browns...

What's worse, I forgot the people who borrowed them, and they have probably forgotten that they borrowed from me. I mean, many of them have been missing since 4th year high school...That's like 2 years ago. Argh!

Hmmm...I should probably take better care of my books.

UAAP

It's been a while since I last posted...it's been nearly a week! Much has happened since then, but I guess the most exciting day would have to be Saturday, July 9.

I had a test scheduled for that day, at 10-1130 a.m. for my Math 100 class. It was a little difficult, but I breezed through it because my mind was on other things. Yes, July 9 was also the opening day of the UAAP. I've been waiting for that since way back last year!!!

Needless to say, I rushed to the Araneta Coliseum after the exam. Opening Day started with a ceremony prepared by the host school (Adamson). It was a nice ceremony and guess what, I saw the RNB Princess Kyla up-close! (She sang the UAAP theme---na nagiging LSS ko na!)

The first game of the season started after the ceremony. UP vs. UST. It felt nice to be able to cheer again for UP, and needless to say, I cheered with all my heart (never mind that I had not eaten anything for lunch and had just gone through a though MATH exam). UST led for most of the game, even as much as 9 points at the last 2 minutes. Suddenly, UP caught up and won the game, thanks to the efforts of team captain Abby Santos. I was ecstatic during the last few seconds of the game!

It was truly a very exhausting, yet very exciting day! :)

Cellphones

I met with my friend Alex yesterday. She didn't know that Aya lost her cellphone. We noticed a pattern concerning the cellphones of Valkyrie peeps from UP Diliman:

1. Basty lost his cellphone during summer vacation
2. Edward lost his cellphone on the first day of classes
3. Aya lost her cellphone last week

I should probably start fretting and panicking (spell?) if Alex loses her cellphone anytime soon. Or maybe I'm next in line (no!!!!!!)

Anyway, 3 more days 'til the UAAP Opening Ceremonies! I'm so excited already!
