buenas noches

it's been raining almost the whole day. didn't see a ray of sunlight. the temperature and temperament it brings about in me reminds me of the coming holidays. it's almost this same mood, without the rains though. and yeah, i'm looking forward to christmas. something new for this year. something fun and intimate and joyous.

things i've done for the past month or so:
- watched the fourth harry potter movie. twas' alright. the scene where he came back with cedric's dead body to the pitch cried out to me. i could feel his anger and sadness. besides that, you thought he, ron and hermione are old enough already. but against the other champions, harry is still very young. cedric is good looking in some angles. and fred and george are still the perfect tag team!

-got a new pair of umbro soccer shorts from muroy, on a monday the week i started training again. i used it on wednesday though, hehe. it's reversible, by the way. blue and pink!

- watched DUP's sepharad. of course, it was required in my comm3 class. i also found arbie watching there, also required in the same class. late takers hehe.

- the POV last friday, december 2 was a success. not only did we fill up the whole cine adarna, there were still people standing or occupying monoblocs. too bad i wasn't able to watch all the films. the ones i did get to watch are "frou frou" - panalo sa comedy - and "anong petsa na?" and they're both great. looking forward to this weekend to be able to watch the others. ang galing talaga ng CINEMAsters. ang galing nina bebs and ace. grabe, gusto ko na rin makagawa ng film ko. concept muna, and then some peeps to help me out and a camera, ok na. go na. mahirap nga lang na part iyong concept.

- dec. 3, watched the women's championship match in football in the 23rd sea games at the marikina sports complex with sikad peeps. buti na lang sumama ako after nung training, although kawawa naman ako, didn't bring any pants so i just reversed the shorts i used haha! ang galing ng vietnam and myanmar! they could vie for the world championships. galing nung mga defense tsaka trapping and dribbling nila. kawawa naman myanmar; vietnam and got a penalty kick (i think that's what it's called) and won the game with 1-0. pero astig, i wanna be able to play like that someday. and after that, i will be playing like ronaldinho hehe.. what if? astig.. by the way in that training, karen and i made a pact that we would be committed to sikad from that day on. yes, sana nga tuloy-tuloy na ito. induction na sa wednesday. i need a soccer-related artwork (of course, that won't come out of thin air - got some brainstorming and hand twisting to do) plus a 30-minute batch presentation. keri sana.. my batchmates are planning to play instruments.

- watched ang pagdadalaga ni maximo oliveros last monday with alessa. it was cute and funny but for me it was on the same level as pepot artista. i was expecting for more but i guess that's the problem with an award-winning film. but it was nice. something new yet close to our cultural context.

other thoughts...

*well, got 3 exams on monday: bio 11 lec, bio 11 lab (had a mock exam awhile ago - hope it helps) and math 54. yes, the shock of my life when i learned only last monday when our prof finally arrived that we're gonna be frying our brains on monday. tagal na kasing dinelay ang pag-aaral. ayan tuloy.

*hindi ko na siya nakita uli *turo sa ibaba* mali ako dun sa assumption ko. two times lang, no more. hindi na ako natutuwa pag nakikita ko siya pero ngayon, hmmm, hinahanap ko ang fez niya.

*cinema ball bukas. dress pa lang ang meron ako. how bout footwear? ha! hanapan mamaya hanggang bukas.

*nainggit ako kay marj nung nalaman kong nakapag-shift siya. buti pa siya, nagawa niyang iwanan ang halos tatlong taon sa ba at sinunod ang passion: film. grabe, gusto ko rin ng film. pero there are so many factors, the greatest of which is the financial constraints. besides that, hindi rin ako sure kung mage-excel ako dun. i wanna be sure naman kung nag-shift ako. pero hindi naman talaga ako masaya sa course ko. ang dami-dami ko ngang org, puro varied. hala, gusto ko naman ng specialization.

*physical activity no longer has the same effect on me. i think i need to take it to a higher level. nung last time kong nag-jogging, hindi sumakit katawan ko. kahapon naman, 3-aside iyong game ng girls nung training, minimal lang ang sakit although may pasa ako kasi natamaan ng spikes (walang shin guard). pero dati, masakit na talaga ang katawan sa ganoong activity.

*ukay is great! got a lot of cheap stuff. ang galing!

kailangan ko talagang mag-aral. nasa umpisa pa lang ako sa math. di ko pa na-aapply. so eto na lang muna. uwi muna ako, tapos lalabas para sa meeting. sa mc na lang ako hindi pa nagpapakita. medyo nahihiya na. pero mc squared sa tuesday, punta ako. tapos ep launch ng makopa sa jan 27, aabangan ko iyon.

so happy new year!
