the perils of

The following events are the main constituents of my day: Cram-wrote the introduction and conclusion of the first draft of my research paper today. :| It sucks so much it puts black holes to shame.  Attended a Gawad Kalinga talk for Health Sci majors with most of the block. I know now that I made the right choice in choosing Health Sci and in coming to Ateneo.  And, hey. Is it me, or did the speaker at the GK talk just say that they needed more men and less women to volunteer because women only give birth? :| First (and last) Ma 20.3A long test of 2010!!! I think I did pretty well for someone who still doesn't know what a derivative is (Yeah yeah yeah, it's the slope of the line tangent to the graph, yadda yadda yadda. What is all that even supposed to mean!? :|) Kapelikula with the Rapster! We watched three awesome short films from director Raymond Red. Also, I recommend that all of you come to next year's Kapelikula. It is a very wonderful and rewarding activity bro...

#1: Lolwhut . Chick lit is a real genre now? . . . #2: My guitar of five years finally bit the dust today. I have no idea why, but when I picked it up this morning from its usual place behind the mirror, its bridge was already snapped off and the strings dangling out of place.   Aasdfkj asolfjwoijsld; sakj fw ;.  My mom says I can buy a new one here in Manila, but I'll go take it to a repair shop before I even begin to think about replacing it. We've been through so much! :'( And now for a little nostalgia: The guitar was actually a present from Santa Claus back in the December of 2005. It was a gift meant for all of us kids, but I, being the most musically inclined in the family (and also the most talented and probably the smartest), took to learning the guitar in the summer of 2006.  When I became a freshman in high school, I brought the guitar with me a lot, and whenever I did, my friend Marc Paul (whom I mentioned in another guitar-related post and is probabl...

Now that college is only three weeks away, I’m going to have to pick a talent and stick to it. I'm sort of a jack of all trades, master of none. I know how to write, draw, take pictures, do graphic design, and play the guitar, keyboards, drums and bass. Problem is, I'm not exceptionally good at any one of those things. (That's what the "master of none" means, in case you didn't know.) But with college just around the bend, I'm going to need one special talent to hone, polish and rub in people's faces. (Kidding, kidding.) Now that I have to start REALLY developing one of my skills, I figure the one I should choose is making music. Playing the guitar, especially. Because out of all the things I know how to do, that's probably the one I know how to do best! Tried and tested during school Foundation Days and music projects. Haha. Which is why I've been setting aside a huge chunk of my time each day to log onto http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/ ....

I've just converted the Pink Room into my own little music room. I brought the piano in from downstairs so I could practice "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley (for Rickrolling purposes, of course). I've already got it on the guitar, so I wanna record both into a computer and see what I end up with! Also, I really need something to do other than Facebook. So, music it is :3 P.S. We're gonna go watch the Apo Hiking Society concert this Friday! It's gonna awesome :3
