a very lazily-written blog

-

30,000+ VIEWS!!! I'm guessing that about half of that came from my parents, and the other half is from search results for "college girl with no life outside the Internet and is pausing an episode of Game of Thrones right now to update her blog."

Is this good? 30k? Is that more or less than what an average blogger gets, considering this site has been up for two years already? That's not important, I guess. So let me just go ahead and celebrate this trivial little victory with a small pat on the back.
[pat on the back]

Done! Now on to some less trivial things.

I went to Cravings Katipunan for an unlimited breakfast with AC and Cheryl. Yay! I haven't talked to them in a while because of our differing schedules. Not being blockmates anymore suuuucks. Anyway I had beef tapa, while Cheryl had the longganisa and AC had pancakes. I enjoyed my food, and there was an endless supply of coffee to go with it. And unlimited Honey Stars, too. Classy. I brought my camera with me because I wanted to take pictures of my food friends but I stupidly forgot to bring my SD card. Why does that keep happening to me?

After breakfast, I walked to the Manila Observatory to check out the exemptions list for the Environmental Science finals. I found out that I got a B+ for ES! Yay. I don't need to take the test tomorrow, so basically now I'm a free bird. Aside from my Biochem project. Urgh. 

The impeachment trial of Chief Justice Corona happened around this time, and I guess I should write about that now, but I really don't have anything to say about this. Instead, check out my friend Fred's very wise words (which I am posting here without his knowledge or consent): (click to enlarge his wisdom)

And that's about as far this blog will go to comment on a national issue: posting a screencap of someone else's comments. Thanks, Fred!

Oh, but I will say this: On behalf of the multitude of people in the Philippines who are NOT blubbering idiots, I apologize for the people who ARE blubbering idiots. Please don't let them keep you from doing another show here, Lady Gaga!

When I got back to the condo, my roommate Jean told me that she had some of the banana milkshake I made last night. I told her that it tasted weird, but she responded by kindly assuring me that it tasted all right and that not all banana milkshakes turn out yellow. Phew. :) I'd hate to think that my maiden voyage into the stormy seas of shake-making turned out to be a complete wreck (especially since milkshakes are one of the easist things to make in the world, and it would take a special kind of half-wit to screw that up). 

I've got a lot of things in store for me this week. Tomorrow, my block is getting together for the usual sem-ender "meeting" at Albert's house. The day after that will be my last day in Manila (for the summer, at least), and I'll probably be spending it working on that accursed Biochem project. Grahhhh. Good thing I'm going home to CDO the day after that. I'll arrive just in time for a reunion with my high school classmates.It's the first time since my high school graduation that I'll be seeing the lot of them, can you believe that? And then on Saturday, I'll be turning nineteen! Oh my gosh, I feel so unprepared. How does one prepare for a birthday? I've had eighteen of them already and I still don't know what  to do about them.

That's it for tonight. Here's to enjoying what's left of our summer. :)

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...
