yesterday (or was it the other day), i spent brunch watching 3 full episodes of national geographic's pharoah's week presentation. and i found it marvelous.
wonderful wonderful wonderful archaeological, historical, (and not to mention medical) brilliance.
i must admit that i initially was attracted in the costumes of the harems in the re-enactment part that's why i managed to sit through the first few parts of the first episode. but it turned out to be a wonderful set of episodes. As with any documentary and following the scientific method, all episodes start with speculations, and each resarcher's version of what could have happened, and their quest to find clues and piece them together. i'm gushing over it.
first off was the harems and their plot against this certain pharoah (whose name i now forget). The first harem's name was Queen Teye, so whoever her husband was that's who they supposedly killed. The second one was about the mummy of Rameses I and how it got rediscovered. Finally, and the most controversial of all was the episode on King Tut, how they resolved King Tut's curse, and how they discovered how he died, not to mention how they reconstructed his face (yes we know how he looks like now and the guy they got to reenact really looks like him! HAHA).
please please tell me someone has watched it. i'm looking for somebody to geek about this.
in the meantime, off to do my papers and school stuff. let's go bionic!

i realized this morning, that maybe, just maybe...
i do love chemistry.
i hope it loves me back.
HAHA this is what you get for having no boyfriend. you love abstract things.
kinikilig ako pag nageelectron configuration and nagdedetermine ng quantum numbers! ang galing talaga ni papa erwin schrodinger! tipong ganun.
AT AT AT
KUNG MAMALASIN KA NGA NAMAN.
/edit: I slept again and then woke up at 5 am. i seriously have an oversleeping thing going on. its scary.

( as usual, to get to this amusing state of staying up to witness midnight, i slept earlier, at seven to be exact, and woke up at 11. )
NEWS FLASH: MY CLOVER IS MISSING. it's not in my wallet. *bawls*
and since i'm lazy enough to not consider typing my new sched now, i'll just tell you the stuff worth knowing (for outings, gimmicks and... whatnot. hehe *evil grin*)
*i have morning classes, since i can't pick any another schedule, i have to eliminate my late-afternoon-schedule-everyday ideal and deal with it. and i have to wake early. *mourns lost idleness*
*i can stay as early as 1pm and as late as 830pm. after 1 i can go to diliman to have my shifting questions answered, among other things.
*my wednesdays are filled up already, BAD. i have two consecutive classes, three hours each, and one of them is my 530-830 class. fun fun till the daddy took the tbird away my ass.
and i'm still not an official bio student. i have to fix that too.
i am having the hardest time. and what sucks is that this might go on until i graduate, and then the whole medicine thing will be another whirlwind of cussing, panicking, processing papers, reaching deadlines and a lot of other unfortunate events.
So many days you passed me by
See the tear standing in my eye
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter
may i finish this sem still smiling and not out of insanity. AMEN.

i keep telling myself to sleep early but i can't! today i couldn't cause i slept from 3 to 7. so there, an entry before i sleep.
we had dinner at zamboanga restaurant ( (GO THERE IF YOU HAVE BALIKBAYAN RELATIVES I RECOMMEND RECOMMEND) )
my uncle treated me for dessert afterwards, although i was itching to go home, cause he was extremely happy about the shifting. turns out, he's depressed lately and he said the shift made him truly happy. that makes me feel good in a way, that despite my doubts about the shift, and about college, i know there were payoffs(one, that i made him happy, that somehow i didn't disappoint, and two, he'll treat me HAHA). all in all, i am content with what i am in now, moreso because it's leading me to strive for more academically. but i'm not saying that shifting was not a sacrifice. it was a huge one.
But why, OH WHY, can't i have the kind of celebration i want? the kind that will make me dance to the sounds of the beatles??? bakit di pwede doon?!?!
i need my cd NOW.

will you look at that.
i just took note of notable habits i have recently. such as eating an average of 4 mangoes a day (including the flesh in the seed area), which would've been more sophisticated and nigella-esque if i added some whipped cream and mint. or eating bread/pandesal and slices of cheese any chance i get. and eating cereal 4x a day before we ran out of milk. oh look, they're all food related.
and being all this beatles freak i wasn't before. take note: i didn't know abbey road when we were in london. we even took a picture of some monument/statue we THOUGHT was "abbey road." that's how stupid and oblivious i was. all i knew is that mr. postman makes me swoon, along with other songs during that period. although i knew the abbey road album cover, it was still embarrassing to pose in the same fashion while cars are on standby with their drivers wondering how many minutes they'd have to wait. but i prolly won't care the next i have the chance. and searching for random things on wikipedia.
how interesting to find that in wikipedia, the featured article for today is about Mt. Pinatubo. and while looking for decent beatles sites i came across this funny little list of how the beatles were different from bands. such as refusing to play to segregated audiences or facilitating movements of Eastern philosophical concepts to the West or protesting the Vietnam War and refusing to meet with Imelda Marcos . LoL i wonder why.

okay so i'm not shifting. yet.
not that i'm that desperate. yet. maybe next sem.
although i know that not everyone on the list is going to accept bio, so they'll produce another list later on the week. i don't know what to do.
i'd be a billionaire if i were given a pound for saying, expressing and even thinking of how i dislike college because of things like this. this uncertainty, and decision making and confusion is driving me nuts!!! and you just wish you had some consolation, but no, such is life.
again, i'm still not ready for the real world.
next sem, next sem...

the interview didn't go as well as i expected. tough man, i suddenly had a difficulty expressing myself and started stuttering, an obvious no-no. eh. it pretty much racks my brain cause out of the how many courses i shifted into its the only one i got an interview for. i'm not sure if the others require an interview so i'm pretty much expecting the worst. i just want it to be over with.
moving on, i crammed some research, went around harrison for a box, and now i still haven't finished studying for my test tomorrow. i'm pretty beat, and the whole interview thing bothered me all day since i stuttered and whatnot. it's making me anxious about the results. and again, the pressure about facing my still unsure future.
btw wedding date = LONDON PAHIWATS. hello surrey.

i am enjoying summer class with ding. we talk about the funniest things. especially on that jungle animal behaviour tape.
the cheetah starts the courtship by stalking the desired mate. ding and i exchanged looks and giggled upon hearing this (or something that sounds like). add to that the "endless love" swans, the raped koalas, and female jungle animals, and the cats who lurve mating.
EDIT: raphie (i know you might not read this but) my condolences.

half the report is done. i hope our teacher will enjoy telling stories again/will be late so that we could stall and report on friday.
however, i still haven't progressed with my shifting. i need my 2x2 pics (and ang bangag ko pa tignan!) plus i have to get my grades, certify it and whatnot, my certificates, my brown envelopes and get another form.
moreover, i haven't bought my gifts for ria/sunny YET. i can't faaakkin go out cause my class time is quite smack in the middle of the height of things (1-3 pm) so there.
further, there's that april 22 event which i shamelessly invited myself into. it would be a shame to compromise that.
i can't fix my schedule!!! huhu this is tragic.
plus that baby found it interesting to be sisa these past few days and laugh and smile alternately. extremes pa sya. it's cute when she smiles/coos but when she cries i just want to show her off ala michael jackson and swing her to add irritation.

relief # 0098329
oh there is the new pope. hello, i welcome you. he's not a meantime pope, is he? i am anxious as to how he will lead us. i wish him well. if i were back in highschool i could just imagine him being the topic of discussion.
calvary 1 1/2
i was initially frustrated today because i couldn't find anything for our report on thursday, but i found some few things which i can share and discuss and that relieves me. this reporting is hard. i was forced to face something i really exactly don't know how to go about. huhu. keeping it cool. eep.
calvary 1 3/4
my fear for jeepneys is resurfacing. people mistake me for being a tourist because i don't talk and i don't pay attention (to the nakikisuyong bayad, heheh). and there was this one time, i was sitting alone on the whole bench and i was wondering why nobody wanted to sit besude me when i felt the heat of the sun on my back. ang init pala sa inupuan ko. i could say my ass was HOT that day.
relief # 0398409
oh yeah quality time at my uncle's place. shouting at people from other buildings and shouting darna/ doing those superhero spiels, fun fun. i must bring binoculars. haha BOSOHAN. if you see it, it can be mistaken for a temple/museum. it's too immaculate, i can't even bring myself to pee in the washroom.
ok useless rambling must sleep NOW. may class pa mamaya. hehehe.

( late reg, but i did it *victory pose* )
so now all i have to do is concentrate on, aside from my summer classes, my other calvary, which is the papers for shifting. omigah. seriously, i'm hating college by the jerk.
|
|
|
damn classcards. missed by .05 points. BOO
lintik. tapos yang summer reg pa na pinaikot ikot ako. BOO.
and then when i rode the jeep, i gave P5 to the driver (like i often do if i don't have 50cents) and forgot na transport strike pala at may pinaglalaban sila. he freaked out and started saying things. i gave him another peso so he could concentrate on driving. wala na bang student fee? laos na ba yun?
and to think i might not shift this semester. and my uncle's making parinig about how happy he will be if i get to shift. (sorry for the schrey schrey ness). PRESSURE. kasi i've been hearing lots of things about that whole shifting thing: kesyo isang slot lang daw para sa libo libong applicants, kesyo dapat 1.25 ang average para sigurado. GRRRR. out of frustration, i actually thought for some time if i'm just being too obedient, and i found out that maybe it's also what i want. i do hope i get to shift. maybe it's what i need since i'm a mess and unprioritizing.
i want to shift, but i also don't want to shift. syempre gusto ko din panindigan ung course ko. BOO.
stupid college. stupid real world.

according to a ripley's comic strip, smarter people are more likely to break down under pressure because their extra thinking capacity leaves more room for doubt and worry.
i'm definitely under a lot of pressure, but prolly that's because my thinking capacity completely accounts for the doubt and worry. haha. what extra thinking capacity.
i'm checking my class cards on friday. i'm really scared, actually. it's just too serious and vital, and the results would just be too drastic.
i'm so not ready for the real world.
