Biochem

-
I wish I had my old phone back. Yes, the one I stupidly left in a taxi in my rush to catch my flight home last December. I hate that December. Now I'm using the phone I had back in first year high school, and it can't upload things to computers. Hence the decline in my posting of pictures from my daily life. (I do have my DSLR birthday camera, but I don't like bringing it around everyday. Who does that [apart from people whose job it is to do that]?)

Anyway. Yesterday I had a Biochem exam, which I did okay at. I skipped my Environmental Sciences class to cram for that test too, and I'd like to think it paid off a little. There was a logic part of the test where you had to figure out the right order of amino acids based on a bunch of clues. I really enjoyed that part, actually. I felt like Nancy Drew, racing against the clock to figure it out. :))

After that...
  • had a Game of Thrones marathon and some mushy, caramely bananas with ice cream
  • slept like a baby (got too little sleep the previous night because of Biochem)
  • woke up bright and early at 7 AM
  • jogged the usual MWF jog with Rap
  • talked about water quality in Enivonmental Sciences. It's a topic close to my heart because the Cagayan de Oro River was featured a lot, and it proves to be among the cleanest in the country. Also, our teacher talked about her experience during the 1995 water crisis, when households had no running water for two months. I remembered the horrible December of 2011, when Sendong happened and the water supply of several barangays in CDO was cut off. My dad had to go wait in the water refilling lines to get water that would last us three days, sometimes two. I really wanted to help him out but I feel like he intentionally didn't let me carry any of the water, just because I'm a girl and supposedly not strong enough. Hmpf. Times like that I found myself wondering, What Would Mulan Do? Cut her hair and disguise her boobs, probably. And then lift those freaking barrels of water. I love Mulan.
That's pretty much it. Oh, my mom's coming over this Saturday! So are my aunts and uncles. And my grandparents, too! YAY! Good food here I come!!!


Just so this post isn't so dry, here's a picture of my dirty laptop, with Jules's Spanish profile reflected in 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...
