amazing days...

The blessings just keep on piling up:

1. First thing at school today, Clar and I met up with Ate Issa, Ate Olivia, Kuya Niki and Kuya Teddy.

2. Chem class is something I get even at a slow rate.

3. Labpsych ended early for my group!

4. VERY LONG break time with Junee, Tino, Ron, Charles, Pao, Paul, Dave, Niki, Drew, Ico, Clar, AJ, and Dan. Lunch out with the latter four in this list. Laugh trip and bonding galore.

5. FILDLAR ended early. Some tambay time with sina Ate Oche, Kuya Darwin, Ate Olivia, Kuya Niki, Kuya Marco, Ate Melai, Kuya Rocky, AJ, and Dan.

6. Watching "Riles". Napaiyak at natawa ako.

7. SMS general assembly. Quite fun, and I'm excited for the later activities this year. I also received the announcement that I made it into this year's junior committee. Yes, junior officer na ako. Now I can actually put my acads to good use. Buo na ang buhay ko, wala nang palugit at butas. Wala nang oras maging tamad. Of course I will still study hard, serve in YFC (this will always be of some priority for me) and fulfill my assistantship. I just have to learn to make better use of my time. :)

Praise God na nabuo na rin ang retrato ng aking araw.

my sis' 18th!!

I should get pics from Miwa when she can give them to me. Anyway, this day was for the most part humdrum: biopsych test, chem mix-ups, nitty gritty of college life...well it WOULD have been really boring if it were not for the fact that my dear sister Clarisse Michelle Guiang Gomez celebrated her 18th birthday today!

The plan: meeting up at the tambayan for worship, then my sister's surprise debut. Yes, surprise debut right in DLSU. Complete with 18 roses, birthday cake, lots of good food and the company of friends from all over. Hahaha!

Thanks to everyone who made it possible, all the way from my parents, my brother, my cousin Martin, to my "brothers and sisters" in YFC DLSU and other YFC programs, to the LSPO for allowing us to pull off such a thing, and to God for giving me an awesome sister who was the reason for this day being so great.

Next up: SMS GA, YFC households, Kuya Marco's birthday, and more YFC events. And of course, acads (tredtwo, majors, and more). Scholarship assistantship too. Puno na ito hanggang November 16!!

After all of this, may God be praised!

lasare 2 + GK On Fire + village fiesta

Yeah, that's the way to sum up my day. Lasare 2, despite being a little slow-paced at some points, was surprisingly reassuring. Well, then there was the fact that the reco was rather EARTH-SHAKING. Thanks to Trish, Mec, Minseun, and Andria for everything.

GK on Fire was fun, for the short time that Clar and I were around. Hanging out with Arven, Teddy, Olivia, and Darwin. Cheering on AJ and Paul during the modeling bit, and Ate Regz each time she was on stage. Listening to Kuya Leonard and Kuya Greg. It was truly inspiring to see so many people who are at the very least, interested in the work of rebuilding the nation.

The village fiesta was well, a little slow-paced for me. Maybe because I mostly caught the bingo part (though when the band Blush was playing, it was pretty good). I really wanted to just stay home and chat with people. Wahh.

ang saklap talaga!!

And no, it has nothing to do with the game.

Surprisingly acads were good. I actually understood chem and biopsych today, never mind the brain bleed (pun intended). Things began to go downhill though some time around lunch. I went up to the SPS to get some sisig, and on my way down, my left knee gave out. Sisig and rice went flying all over Yuchengco Plaza. Just when I got to my feet and went a few meters forward, I got hit by a stray Airsoft pellet. OUCH!

So I had to eat my (very) depleted lunch before going to the Andrew Building for class. Got stuck in the elevator queue. Only to find out that we were going to get dismissed early from FILDLAR. Waahhh! CITIGOV was okay, but it just left me thinking "Oh great, more projects." I stayed in school till about 7 to wait out the rain, before going home all wet anyway.

What made the day somewhat more bearable was the presence of certain people. Thanks to you all.

Tomorrow: SMS interview, then household. I hope everything goes better.

nothing goes as planned, yet all goes well

Alright, so this day is just one of those funny days...

TREDTWO was mainly all about community service orientation. Hmm, I DO wonder where and when I'm going to be working (please, please I do not want to miss the metrocon because of my TREDTWO requirements!) Biopsych activity was way, way too easy. But I don't think the same can be said for reviewing for my test.

Lunch: Again, me with the boys (Dan, Drew, Dave, and Paolo) since Clar, Ico, and AJ met Ate Carla elsewhere. Eventually Ate Olivia showed up. Then I had to go all the way to the Velasco building to talk to Dr. Gallardo about my assistantship for my scholarship requirements. However, since apparently lunchbreak wasn't over yet, I went to the LAPIS to deposit my application for the SMS junior committee. I got to catch up with Mel and Erin Mercado while I was there. Then it was back to the Velasco building. This time around, the other scholars and I nearly jammed up the intercom in our attempts to get it working. How embarrassing.

Then I had to go all the way to the Andrew Building to meet my supervisor. No such luck--she wasn't in today. Back to the tambayan for yes, the mother of all tambay sessions: running errands, eating ever so often, listening to the guys writing songs, using AJ's laptop, telling jokes and stories, reading through yearbooks, and finding out the ONE thing I can do with my hands that my friends cannot do! Ahahahaha! Of course we had worship again. It's the perfect ending to such an odd day.

I hope tomorrow will be just as blessed.

very early in the morning musings

It's past midnight, I know I have to be in bed, but I am still suffering from insomnia.

I've been swinging back and forth from euphoria to doubt for two, maybe three days now. There are times when I am so unsure, so scared, so distrustful of everything to the point that I feel paralyzed and pessimistic. With all of the things coming up: grades, tests, scholarship duties, activities, and more, I feel overwhelmed and helpless. Sometimes I feel like I can't do anything anymore.

Yet I know that I have no reason to fear, no cause to give up. No, not while I know God loves me. Not while I can still see blessings in my life. So there are those times, like during breaks, during worship, when I understand the lessons, when I can laugh, that I feel all is right and wonderful in the world. And once again, I remember the value of surrender.

Maybe I do not need to always be in control.

I believe that the love I have from the people in my life and the love I can give is strong enough to overcome the shadows that I see. I believe that yes, there is a love beyond all reason, and that it comes from God.

"Cause all You are, is all I want...always" .

God's morning to you all.

Monday, September 22, 2008

one of those " things I learned today" posts

1. There is always a good reason to wake up in the morning

2. If an annoucement is on the Psych bulletin board in Miguel Building, chances are it's also outside the LAPIS. There is no need to worry.

3. It's never easy to determine whether tremors in the Miguel Building are caused by construction near the EGI, equipment on the ground floor, or if they are actual earthquakes

4. Better to be late than embarrassed...

5...unless being late causes you to be embarrassed

6. Drawing brains is harder than it looks

7. For some reason, people always see FOOD in my drawings. Are you guys all hungry?

8. The human body is designed to eat lunch at noon. Try not to get a schedule that involves getting lunch only at 1pm.

9. I should not have fallen asleep in bio class in high school. If only to understand a sodium potassium pump.

10. Nothing is "for sure" in psych.

11. Staying after school is usually a blessing

12. So is unexpected worship

13. You never know when you will make a new friend

14. Never try to open a bag of Milo Cereal recklessly. Otherwise one will be picking up little chocolate balls for some time.

15. kikay lesson: There IS a difference between "kikay" eyeliner and eyeliner that just looks emo.

16. I am emo. Yes, inamin ko na.

17. God always has amazing ways of surprising people. Amen.

araw na astig

Firstly: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRISH!

I really had to find a good reason for me to go to school today. I don't know why, but I woke up with absolutely no motivation in me. It was all I could do to get up, change into the outfit that I had planned (Campus Fresh t-shirt day!) and finish getting my things together for school.

TREDTWO was a blessing. A good movie with my class, some bonding with Andria, Neulfred, and Arianne. I really love them. BIOPSYC was a little frustrating, but at least now I have a better understanding of neural transmission. I could get really slow in my majors. Chem lab was surprisingly good. I actually got some of the answers right for molarity. Praise God!

Revenge of the logbook doodles: Enough with the brains, enter the nerve cells. But unfortunately my brothers insist that the neurons I draw look like "sitaw" or coconut trees. ARGH!!! Breaktime surprise: Kuya Marco was in town after all. Too bad I couldn't sit and chat since I had class.

PERSEF2: some fun with the activities, bonding over clay sculptures, getting acquainted with Mackie, my groupmate besides Trish, Mec, and Andria. But well, that class (so far) isn't anything I haven't heard.

Tambay time after: I was determined to make the best of it, since I'm starting SFA duties this week, and I really don't know how much spare time I'll have. So I hung out for a grand total of two hours, during which I got to play on AJ's guitar, meet Fer (yes that's his name), joke and hang around with Clar, Ico, Niki, Kuya Rocky, Rodz, Tino, Ate Issa, Ate Olivia, Ate Carmel, Kuya Arven, Dave, Dan, Mira, Karl, Nelly, and as I mentioned earlier, AJ and Fer.

For ONCE in the school year, sumama ang buong execom sa worship. Astig!

We had worship today. It was just, for lack of a better word, awe-inspiring. Sure, we couldn't get the lights on, but it was great to still worship in the early evening. Kuya Greg also dropped by to say hi to all of us.

I started the day feeling worthless, but I'm ending it feeling awesome, loved, and happy. After all of this, may God be praised.

sectorcon

Oh yes, so much fun. Even if I came late. Even if I really really wish that YFC-DLSU had been able to field an entry for the creative competitions (next year guys, dapat andun na tayo!). I got to meet old friends again. Hanging out with Kuya Tino, Kuya Arven, Ate Ynah, Kuya Arvin Borja, Ate Drei, JM, and AJ. Also saw Ico, Kuya Niki, Ate Raissa, Rona, Ruth, Ken, EJ, Kuya Jai, Ate Laarni, Ate Cy, Ate Dindi and more people. Sana mas maraming pupunta sa mga susunod na events. Congrats to all the winners!

To be a witness is the most difficult job in the world. Not so much in the direct sense, but more in the indirect sense. To be honest, it's easier to plan events, to hold household and attend conferences day in day out than to be a real Youth For Christ day in, day out. But that's what we have to do...

...otherwise how will the entire world know?

Peace out!

Ate Ynah's birthday + super tambay time

Nothing like an 18th birthday celebration and a free Friday to be reasons enough to meet up with good friends.

Clar and I left home a little late, but we got to school in time to join our YFC DLSU friends at Ate Ynah's birthday lunch. Sobrang saya: good company, yummy food, honoring our ate, and of course all the hilarity that comes with planning a birthday surprise. Thanks to everyone who came. Kakaibang debut, actually. And I thank God for that.

To Ate Ynah: I really appreciate what you do for all of us, and I hope we will continue to grow together in YFC DLSU. Alam ko parang nasabi ko na ito sa honoring, pero ayun na.

Super tambay time after with Karl, Niki, Ico, AJ, and Dave. Later we were joined by Rodz, Pert, Kuya Mon, Minseun, and my cousin Martin. Stuff like AJ's pink guitar, ice cream, and other things making their appearances.

This day definitely was not a "bum" day...

Thursday, September 18, 2008

actually, it's yesterday....

Whatta day....

PSYCHM2...frustration ahoy. I NEED HELP!

Lab for biopsych: brain dissection Round 1 with Minseun, Andria, and Cecilia. What a challenge. Those brains are falling apart, and making us psych students get migraines from the formalin fumes as well as the sheer memorywork in this course.  Got formalin all over myself, got to see the most interesting structures...but you know what, I still can't draw a brain to save my life.

Breaktime: I ate a bit before going with Kuya Niki to CSB for a bit. Then I went back before 2pm to hang out at the tambayan with Dave, Paul, AJ, Kuya Arven, Ate Issa, Ate Olivia, Kuya Mark, and Ate Regz.

FILDLAR: Intros and funny discussion with Sir Cayannes. I hope that class keeps me smiling.

CITIGOV: I usually enjoy the subject matter for this class, but I suppose that since it was already past 5pm, I really wanted OUT. I wanted to get away from the cold classroom and a lecture that was fun even if slightly redundant for me. Patience...

After class: Tambay with Dan, AJ, Geom and Lara. It's kinda crazy how easily I laugh when I'm around my friends. After a while, Clar and I had to go all the same since we had to visit Bikai and her family all the way in Sta. Mesa. Not sure if I'll go back up there soon.

for friends quiz

http://www02.quizyourfriends.com/take-quiz.php?id=0809040515159132&a=1&&
I already posted this before, but here's a proper link if you guys want to try. Madali lang, I promise!

food trip day and extra gastos...

Yes, that's it so far. Thank God that today has been pretty much calm compared to yesterday...

TREDTWO was pretty interesting---I think I really like our professor's approach to the topic. Biopsych was hmmm, amusing? Never knew evolution could be so fun. I also discovered that I could still follow the discussion even while reading ahead.

Super tambay mode today! I got stuck studying while waiting to get back my rather battered ballpen.Nakakawa nga ung ballpen na yan: survivor ng chem class ni Dr. Paano, englstress, expsych at maraming psych exam....ngayon naman survivor ng tambayan at pati na rin sa klase ng eng.

Also had quite a few food trips in and out of school...Mom's sandwich + chicken gambas and rice + chocolate c/o Mira + KFC Hotshots + asado. Dreadfully indulgent of me. But I suppose that reading too much about brain structures and laughing too hard with Clar, Karl, Ico, and Dave are bound to get my appetite up. Come to think of it...almost my entire household was at the tambayan, well not ALL at the same time!

The day also had a few expenses: acquiring dissecting gloves and a mask...getting my cellphone fixed AGAIN...that's the third time in a month that my phone has had a message sending error. I am wondering if I should get a new unit but *cough*finances*cough* don't permit me to ask. Pasko na lang. And maybe I can do without it...for now?

This term hasn't been that great for my prayer time. I should wake up earlier, or find a proper time in the day to pray. Seriously.

rollercoaster days

Today was a little bumpy at the start, but matters improved rapidly before classes were in full swing. I can't believe I almost did not get to understand my biopsych lesson, thanks to *not* knowing about the assignment. Mabuti na lang na madali. Hahaha.

Tambay time was pretty funny today what with the old debate about "whose course is more useful" up to the misadventure with AJ's food and a pesky cat. Can't say the same for classtime, or for the evening...(aww Beeks)...Thanks to Jade, Nana, China, and Janine for letting me bail out early in citigov.

I really wonder at times about God's odd way of working or allowing things to happen....

Monday, September 15, 2008

things I learned today....

1. Taking on the Andrew Building stairs at 7:50 am is a surefire way to get an asthma attack

2. I really have to keep my reactions subtle.

3. By this time, everyone in the YFC tambayan knows my handwriting

4. God's time = best time

5. The LSPO is surprisingly helpful

6. It is possible, but difficult to listen to greengiantfm over a dial-up connection

7. Surprisingly, cold C2 is pure agony when it comes in contact with two singaws.

8. It is possible to keep yakisoba on a coated plate without it sliding off

9. Worship at mid-afternoon is just the best part of the day.

10. When one is bored and unimaginative, one risks being assigned a groupname as strange as "The Giant Omelette".

...and that's another day for me.

Pugad Baboy 20

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Books
Genre: Comics & Graphic Novels
Author:Pol Medina
The Fat and the Timeless. That's Pugad Baboy 20 for you. Like most of the other PB installments, Pugad Baboy 20 showcases one year's worth of cartoons, but this time with a bonus. Highlights of Pol Medina's other works as well as write-ups on the inspirations for his long-running comic series grace the pages of this 20th anniversary special. Many of the jokes follow the timeless formulas (e.g: Polgas' commentary, Brosia vs Dagul, the Sabaybunots, the students vs. Ms. Nobatos, political humor, and more), but always with the same irreverence and freshness that characterize Pol Medina's work. A few of the gags reference previous storylines ("Pirata", "Aso", among others), but as a whole, the volume is pretty much an excellent stand-alone.

Not to miss: the jokes on the Cabalfins, as well as the Saw parody.

All in all, a good read, for the PB die-hards and first-timers alike.

Thank God

Ang galing. Most of my doubts have somehow been eased over the past 24 hours.

I had no idea what I was going to do with regard to the CLASIKO psych newsletter. Thank God for our planning meeting that helped me learn what I have to do for this amazing project.

I thought I was losing my touch with literature. Thank God I went to the book fair.

I thought I was going to freak out with GK work. Thank God for the chance to talk to Mel and Ate Dhang.

And of course, thank God for the opportunity to join my friends for a reco/planning. I'm happy that somehow, some way we're setting a new, exciting direction. I'm eager to step up, I'm ready to stand my ground, ready to grow and break myself over and over if it will help me learn to love and be loved in return. I'm ready to continue striving for the integrity I am seeking. I'm so excited for YFC DLSU now.

To my parents, Clar, Trisha, Kuya Raffy, the rest of the CLASIKO staff, Mec, Mel, Ate Dhang, Kuya Marco, Kuya Tino, Ate Ynah, Ate Melai, Kuya Arvin, Kuya Jai, Kuya Niki, Kuya Rocky, Dan, and Dave...thank you, thank you so much. I know that the last two days almost did not happen for me, but I am glad they did. I'm glad you were a part of it all.

so much for the day

What.A.Day. I feel like I've been left out to dry (yes, that was meant to be ironic).

PSYCHM2: I am trusting in Divine Providence that Engr. Ong will be our prof for this class. He sounds like he's going to  manage to make chemistry interesting for a bunch of traumatized psych majors.

LBYPSB: Ms. Lajom is so much fun. I like the tips she gave regarding examining brain specimens (I kid you not, this is part of psych...)

Breaktime: The lonely tambayan scenario: I was lucky today to get out early, but I know that my Tuesday/Thursday lunchbreaks are going to be a little less fun. I get out at around 12 or so, then I get back to class at 2:40. So this leaves me a lot of spare time, but around only one hour with my friends. The rest of the time, I am left to myself since everyone has to go to class. Wahhh.

FILDLAR: Our professor is quite amusing, despite his tendency to enjoy side-topics too much.

CITIGOV: This is one floating class I'm taking with quite a lot of BS-PSYC friends. My floatings for the last term (ENGLRES and INTFILO) plus my other floatings (TREDTWO and FILDLAR) have a significantly smaller number. Still, it's going to be at least a fulfilling experience. I love citizenship.

Didn't hang out for so long today thanks to the awful weather.

Tomorrow is going to be a very full day. And I'm going to love it.

help needed....

Activity: CET Review (in preparation for DLSU-CET and other universities)
Participants: SIGA (Servant In God's Army) members of GK (Gawad Kalinga)
Duration/Time: Three or Four Consecutive Saturdays starting  sept. 13, 2008 from 8am to 5pm
Venue/s: DLS- College Of Saint Benilde; De La Salle University- Manila; University of the Philippines

This activity will cater all SIGA youths from chosen GK sites within manila. The purpose of this activity is to prepare all SIGA's on the upcoming College Entrance Test of De La Salle University- Manila and other Universities as well. The call time of our activity is 8am and it will end at 5pm. Transportation allowance will not be provided for this activity but Food allowance might be possible (sorry guys. I'm not sure. I forgot what was the instruction for this matter was ). We are hoping that the volunteers that we would be able to gather and will participate in this activity is knowledgeable enough on a certain subject matter, preferably science and mathematics. please text me at the numbers indicated below if you have questions and issues regarding this matter. By the way, we will have a meeting on September 12, 2008, 2pm at DLSU-M. matters about this activity will be discussed their. all volunteers and the people I coordinated with this upcoming activity is "required" to attend. The venue is still yet to be announced.

(from Rodrigo Bernardo)

new term, new life?

I can only hope.

TREDTWO: I think that despite the paperwork, I'm going to really like this class. Am with Andria, Julie, Yna, Pat, Claire, Elli, Sam, Joe, Ryan, and other psyc majors. Also managed to end up classmates with Neulfred. Also managed to make a new friend, Arianne. It's not by chance that Arianne was my sister's TREDONE classmate, thus making her AJ's classmate. And AJ is classmates now with Justine!

BIOPSYC: Wow, this is going to be challenging. I'm looking at the book right now, and am convinced it might be the scariest book I've had yet.

LBYCH09: Teeny tiny class. But it's going to be fun being classmates with Jazz and Jason. We got out very early---in time for lunch.

Tambay time after: Ahh, reunions. Got to see Ate Issa, Junee, Dan, Pao, Charles, Teddy, Paul, Don, Ramil, Gayle, Kuya Rocky, Kuya Mark, and AJ for the first time in how many days. Tambay time with them plus Miwa, Kuya Tino, Kuya Niki, Rodrigo, Arven, and Clar always equals a lot of fun, joking about various Asian artists, discussing stuff like a dance contest for the sector con, and of course getting my dose of daily asaran (I missed that during the break, and I'm sure at least two of you missed me too) all the while contemplating the possibility of classes getting suspended. All of this in the flooded tambayan. Hahaha.

The flood going home today was just BAD. Worse than when Egay struck the metropolis. Glad to be home now though. I should have broken in my shoes beforehand (now my feet hurt). Oh well..

I hope that I can continue to be patient and persevering...and learn not to look at things with a narrow mind. I hope that God can help me continue to cultivate an understanding heart.

Les Miserables personality quizzes

Because Kat loves these things and has to retake them at least once a year for psychology's sake. :D
You're Combeferre!
A fount of compassion and common sense, you're Enjolras' right-hand man and occasional conscience. You may or may not wear glasses.

Which Barricade Boy Are You?
Not surprised I got that...
You're... "Do You Hear The People Sing?"

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?

You're all about righting wrongs. And making a mess. And yelling a lot. What's more, you're contagious.

What's Your Les Miz Themesong?

Now that's one thing that hasn't changed....
I'm Enjolras!
A person with a cause, I charm everyone around me with my revolutionary ideas (not to mention my natural charisma). Unfortunately, I don't have very good social skills, and my impulsiveness is liable to get me in over my head.

Which Les Miserables Character Are You?
Hay...grabe pa rin...

revisiting "Les Miserables"

This is what happens when Kat is put under house arrest...

Yeah, so I opened up my song directory (under the very bad influence of watching Youtube clips). I find it hilarious that two years after first getting hooked on Victor Hugo's master work and the musical derived from it, that the story and the songs are still *so* applicable to my daily life.

I remember high school days, being clumped with my three amies, doing our own renditions of songs from the "Les Miserables" musical. I remember notes in red ink, a red flag up by a desk, and joking about barricades. Those were the "activist" days, when everyone was joking I'd get in prison for writing about the government once I reached the age of 18.

Fast forward two years. The four Amies have not met up since Cookie's despedida. I've seen protest rallies and survived the political storms of earlier this year. Thank God I have not gotten in trouble with the law yet. I've gotten a little tired of taking to the streets, and would rather focus my efforts on other ways of changing the world. 

Still, every single day, I see the stories of "Les Miserables" playing out: people struggling for righteousness, young idealists trying to change things, innocents making their way in the world, fallen souls striving for redemption, students who dream much with varying results, streetchildren in trouble, women hoping to hold their families together, systems that hinder society, crooks who cheat people day in and day out and God somehow loving everyone and allowing them to have free will in events...

And somehow my role hasn't exactly changed very much since those lit-obssessed days. I'm still like Enjolras, the idealist who has grand ideas for the future. I'm still like Eponine, the lost, slightly wacked out girl who can get too caught up in everyday life. And there's still that part of me that is like Jean Valjean, who has been through hell and back, and is ready to surrender to God's will.

I think I should go reread that entire Brick.

astig ni God, di na ako bitter

I was so convinced that this weekend was just shot. As in, stayed in Manila for nothing, stayed at home for no good reason.

Again, good reasons and unexpected plans. Friday night was spent with commbased friends. I missed you guys. I really hope that God will guide you in serving in YFC Magallanes.

Saturday: One of those not so busy days, but a good day despite the outcome of the game.

Today: I am so thankful that I got to listen to Fr. Joel's homily. I think I understand why God is letting me go through so much angst/pain with regard to my prayer life, my service, and schedules. I think I'm slowly giving over all of those areas to Him. And letting go of the pain of some of the past few weeks.

Bonding with Clar: shopping trip talaga! Salamat sa Diyos na nakaipon kami ng konti. Dinner with my cousins and extended family was pretty good, even if we missed some people.

I know, I am weird for wanting to get back to school so soon. But there's a lot to do, a lot to take care of, and a lot of loving to be done. And I'm glad that God is somehow putting me back together into a whole that was even stronger than before.

   - secret
 
9. Are you willing to do something that will make you look stupid for the one you really love?

God bless!

...getting my heart broken in order to love better

Which is sometimes what life seems to be for me nowadays.

Lessons in patience today while tagging along with Niki and Ate Carla during docu/photo shoot in GK Pinagsama. Contemplating plans for this term...oh yeah, things are going uphill again and it's going to take faith to pull everyone through. And I know that we're all going to have to give more and more (even what seems impossible to give!).

I thought I gave a lot already in the past. That was all before last term. Today though, I figure that this coming term and the rest of the terms after...heck, even the rest of my life...I'm going to have to stretch the limits and give more and more.

It's good to see miracles unfolding again, good to be able to run all around Fort Bonifacio and eventually plop down for Chinese food.It sure beats staying around at home going a little bonkers from the fact that things are so *quiet* here. Well, at least home seems quiet when compared to school.

I can't believe I'm saying this: Gusto kong pumasok ulit!!! I really miss everyone na: blockmates and YFC friends alike.

Sana magsimula nga yung term!!!

tambay + videoke = YFC DLSU UBE

Yes, that is what happened. A little time at the tambayan waiting around and getting merienda. Talking about things relevant. Then it was off to Providence for one afternoon of videoke.

I didn't think that we would be so many (Arven, Dan, Tino, Clar, Marj, AJ, Mark, Teddy, Rodz, Regz, Oche, Olivia, Issa, Andrew, Niki, Drei, Darwin, Deney, Carmel). Or that we'd have such a *wide* collection of songs (everything from oldies to newbies!) . Kudos to everyone for being such good sports and for sharing musical talents. Ang saya talaga!

Unforgettable moments... "Special Siopao" c/o Tino

"A Very Special Love" c/o Marj

"Uptown Girl" c/o everyone actually (kahit kami ni Clar ang may hawak ng microphone)

"It's My Life" c/o Teddy

"Magazine" c/o Olivia and Arven

"If You Wanna Be My Lover" by nearly everyone else

at maraming, marami pa! UBE talaga ito.
