i never had that kind of moment at the Sunken Garden, katakot mahuli!

pag freshie ka sa UP, half of your block ata valedictorians and salutatorians from different schools. tapos kala mo matalino ka, pero bumabagsak ka pa rin! i remember Math 17, naiyak ako sa result ng 1st exam ko!
e math quizzer ako ng high school, buti na lang pumasa din.hehehe

favorite expression ng philo teacher ko " Ang taong nagtatanong ay tanga, ang taong di nagtatanong ay mananatiling tanga!"

sakit sa dibdib, pero totoo.hehehe

kaya naman kasi mayayabang ang mga taga-ateneo ay dahil they were shaped and trained to be that way. They were trained to be a leader, kaya nga maraming atenista na naging president or CEOs eh. kaya mayabang sila dahil alam nila na angat sila sa KARAMIHAN BUT NOT ALL filipinos in NEARLY ALL aspects. ganito kasi sila pinalaki sa loob ng ateneo eh, wala tayong magagawa. mula sa orsem pa lang eh sinasabihan na sila na lamang sila kaysa sa mga taga-labas.

regarding doon sa IS na course, i have friends na interdiscplinary. noon nasa economics pa ako, niloloko ko course nila, but later i found out from my mom na napaka-versatile ng course na ito kasi it touches many disciplines that you'll need once na CEO ka na or chairman or president. akala ng mga tao pambobo ang Interdisciplinary pati Euro studies, this courses were not technical courses but it doesnt make them easier. akala ng mga tao na bobo yun mga nagtake nito, pero okay lang kasi once na nagstart na magtrabaho, masmalaki naman ang nakukuha ng mga taga-IS and euro. hehehe ganyan talaga ang buhay.

ako i dont judge a person from where school he/she is coming from, kasi he/she is not a book naman eh... hehehe... pero somehow it affects kung paano mo itreat yun tao... actually kaya naman nayayabangan ang mga tao sa mga atenista dahil hindi lang sila sanay. sanay sanayan yan lang eh. ako hindi ako nayayabangan sa kanila kahit araw-araw ko sila kasama. regarding sa traffic, eh hindi nanamin kasalanan yun, eh sa gusto lumabas ng 15,000 cars and SUVs from ateneo ng sabay-sabay eh. eh di wag kayo dumaan ng katipunan, para wag ma-traffic hehehe....

tama, may allowance dun.actually libre lahat. from barracks to messing to academics to clothing. lahat parepareho, aside from monthly allowances, you get the pay between a master sergeant and a 2nd Lieutenant.

but PMA -pedicure, manicure, alot? or pahinga muna anak?

but i love Saint Louis University in Baguio City.

SLU - sa leakage umaasa....

Louisians, lets sing it:
lets all sing a song, gay and cheerful, bursting forth from our young and joyous hearts....

Hehehe... naalala ko lang yong commercial last year nung AMA computer college...tungkol sa anak na gustong mag-artista.. tapos yong dialog nung nanay parang ganito:

' Anak di ka pwedeng mag-artista, wala kang boobs, mag-enroll ka na lang sa AMA computer College, maraming courses na mapagpipilian..merong..'

..natatawa ako every time na naririnig ko to sa radyo...hehehe...

ba't mayabang mga atenista?

ganito kasi yan...pagpasok nila,of course they're depressed.so people try to console them w/ the fact that at least, they dont have to go to that school in taft....then they are brainwashed into thinking that they didn't go to UP not because they didn't pass the UPCAT, but because the facilities are too plebeian for their rich,spoiled asses....hehe,peace po, mga barkada ko puro atenista (HS)...obvious ba kung anong school ako? "UP naming mahal....."
