anti-hell week

-
This week has been very kind to me. *knocks on wood and hopes to not jinx it* I actually got an A on last week's long test in Math! :D I will not even elaborate on how happy it makes me because a certain blockmate of mine is probably reading this right now and scowling at his/her monitor in a display of freudenschade.

So instead, I'll tell you a few other reasons why this week is awesome.

  1. On Monday, we made ice cream for Chem Lab! It tasted like real ice cream, too. Ours was strawberry flavored. :3 If there's one thing I learned in that experiment, it's that if one wants to sample all the good flavors life has to offer, one shouldn't be afraid of sharing a little saliva. 
  2. After the ice cream came Bondage! (Doesn't that just sound so wrong?) Anyway, Bondage is this yearly activity organized by the Pre-Medical Society of the Ateneo (PMSA), where people mosey on down to a grassy field in Ateneo and squirt each other silly with water guns. One person from each team is wrapped from head to toe in tissue paper, and the team whose mummy has the most tissue left at the end of the game wins. Unfortunately, I was my team's mummy, which meant I had to hide behind Jethri all the time, shielding myself with his umbrella. At one point in the game, I actually tripped on a rope (Who put that there?) and landed on my back. All these people from the enemy teams started swarming around me - while I was down. :| Chivalry is SO dead. But the activity was still a lot of fun, despite the fail. The rain, the water, the having to pick up all these clumps of soggy tissue paper after the event, not to mention being able to shoot my friends in the face with water - yyyyup. Monday was a good day. :3
  3. On Tuesday, I got an A in Math :> *insert annoying, self-satisfied smirk here*
  4. Wednesday marked the start of Season 2 of Glee! I went with some of my friends to Alyssa's condo to watch it! I don't know why Charice is getting all this flak for her starring in Glee. Pinoy pride, yo. (Wish I had gone to Rythm In Blue! Tickets were sold out @-| )
  5. NO NOTECARDS DUE FOR ENGLISH THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. My dad's coming over! :D In about an hour, I expect! YES! I'm gonna be spending the weekend at my aunt's house in Pasig with him and my cousins. I'm so looking forward to going to the mall with my dad, because I never feel like I get the most out of going to the mall with my friends Karen, Jason, and Michael, who usually go to check out the stores that sell expensive shoes and expensive clothes. Zzzzz. 
That's pretty much it. In other news, the new Coke vending machine in the Kostka building has its own Facebook page now. Gee, I wonder who started it.

summer plans

I found out yesterday from Alessi that our last exam is on the 23rd! (Yeah, I haven't gotten around to checking the March calendar yet.) My flight's on the 26th (with Gerard! ), so that gives me three extra days of ~COMPLETE IDLENESS~ woohoo. So anyway. I'm really excited to go home. It's just two weeks though, and after that, TWO MONTHS of summer classes. Which means I'll have to fly all the way back to sweltering Manila to take up the TWO SUBJECTS that I and the rest of the Health Sci majors are required to take. Gahh. I can feel the heat waves reverberating towards me from the future. Right. Lest I digress any further, here are some of my (our) ~summer plans~ roflmao March:  Go home and be happy as a bee for two weeks! April-May: Take Psychology and German. -_- Take the Carlos Celdran tour around Manila! n_n Sign up for PAWS! At last! Light up some environmentally destructive floating lanterns, and then later lecture everyone on how they've just...

women superheroes

A lot of my close friends are boys. Boys who like comic books. I hang around them a lot, and usually we talk about random things like physics and foreigners and lobsters having no pain receptors. We went to watch The Amazing Spiderman on a whim just recently. It was fun. Sometimes it's not so fun. I used to get a lot of sandwich jokes until those stopped being funny. Now I get "d'oh you're a girl so of course you hate comic books" jokes. I don't hate comic books. I love Neil Gaiman's Sandman . And Walking Dead, too. And Scott Pilgrim!!! But I don't read superhero comics. It's hard to be interested in them when most, if not all, of the superhero women 1.) have gigantic breasts, 2.) wear sexy clothing, and 3.) are always in stereotypically feminine poses. What if the male characters posed like the female ones? (c) Kevin Bolk And look at that. Why can't the men wear clothes as revealing as the women, or women wear clothes as concealing...

Box O' Rice

To be honest, I don't even remember if it's called Box OF Rice, or Box O' Rice. I hope it's Box O' Rice. It just sounds cooler that way. But anyway. I went there last Friday for dinner, and it was my first time there. It's a cozy little place right next to my dorm, and they serve exactly what their name implies: boxes of rice. Boxes of rice with toppings, of course. Emphasis on the word "boxes." Which means there are no plates involved. Which means you can bring the boxes in and out of the store as you please. I should've noted this earlier, because I embarrassed myself at the counter, telling the cashier TWICE that I wanted my box of rice "to go." Durrr. Boxed na. To go pa. Anyway, the food itself is good, for P60-P70 priced meals. My only complaint is that their meat-to-rice ratio needs a bit more tweaking. There's just so much rice, and so little of anything else! That's Pinoy portioning for you. Actually, the store don...
