Yo soy calmado
I can’t believe that I could still get away with my writing bullshitry even here in the US.
What I mean is that back in the Philippines, I would write stuff that my teachers would want to read about, and voila! instant A. Well, it’s not that I’m complaining, actually. My iPod paper was more [...]

A quick semi-blog entry
Or “quasi”-blog entry, as my history professor would say. Apparently, “quasi” is his favorite word.
Man, I’m not too crazy about American History. Philippine History was my best subject back in my old university ["You write better than most of my graduate-level history students," said my Philippine History prof back in UP Manila] maybe [...]

Please answer my short survey! [school-related]
Hey guys, I need your help with this.
I'm going around forums, conducting an online survey regarding the use of portable listening devices [i.e. mp3 players: iPod, Zune, etc] and portable hi-tech gadgets [PSP, Ebook, BlackBerry] and its connection to social behavior.
I just need you to answer a few questions by writing TRUE or [...]

“YOU ROCK!” and this week’s weird-isms
Michael, my weird seatmate, went ballistic at English class this afternoon when he saw a Calculus book on top of my desk. I got in by the end of his hysterics.
Michael: OMG WTF BBQ it’s a CALCULUS BOOK!!! *&^*($^&*$
Whatshername: Why are you going hysterical over a Calculus book?
Michael: I mean, it’s a Calculus book!
Me: *weirded [...]

First Day Funk
“First day of school,
Dapat cool na cool,
Mas cool pa sa tubig ng swimming pool…”
–Parokya ni Edgar
Damn, that was random.
I am freaking tired, and it’s only 4:30PM.
One more class to go…
God, I never knew shuttling back and forth from SCI to DIAL in 10 minute intervals would be so tiring.
Anyway it’s 4:03PM and I think [...]

Christmas, Americans, Filipinos, and Famous Authors’ Blogs
I am quite aware that my “Merry Christmas” blog entry is long overdue, so there’s just no use writing about it. Other bloggers have either written about how frustrating the Christmas season’s commercialism is, or how over-the-top “political correctness” is, or how sad or happy their respective Christmas celebrations were.
There is no point to follow [...]

I’m just hoping that somehow, I am seeing YOUR IP address…
And that somehow, you’re reading everything I’ve written.
I saw another thing at PostSecret, and man, how I wish that I was the one who made this.
I just miss the way we used to be.

Save Me
Hanson is the band of my childhood. They’re the guys who inspired me to pick up the guitar and start playing. They’re the band who inspired me to practice and teach myself piano… [and the harmonica, and the recorder, and.. and..]. They inspired me to draw realistic sketches, too. I was a [...]

12:01 AM
It’s 12:01 AM and I’ve finished three out of the two papers for this day’s quota. Go me!
* * * *
I came from Barnes & Noble yesterday. It’s been a long time since I’ve ever been to a decent bookstore [the bookstore in school reeks of the pseudo-grocery/gas station/NBS Katipunan vibe]. I bought my [...]
