first week

Wow, I didn't expect the first week of the sem to be this busy and pricey (pala, the pricey part extends up to God-knows-when).

Earlier today my mom and I went to the grocery in Dasma after buying IP 141 requirements in Bambang, we bumped into an old family friend who has a son in UP-CP (Levi-3rd yr BSIP). She told my mom that there remained only five regulars among the 3rd yr BSIPs, Levi being one of them (at sa loob loob ko, hanep ka Levi!). Yon. Then she told my mom how they replaced the separatory funnel (1.5k) her son broke. She even warned me to be careful with burets, since they cost around 4k.

Hm. Pressured, much?

It's good to know every once in a while that you're not the only person experiencing whatever it is you're feeling, the paragraph that follows is an excerpt from angge...

i'm beginning to miss people.

and i can't get over this song: You Raise Me Up - Lena Park.

experiences

While we were waiting for our turn in UM, my bandmate Iji had this funny conversation with kuya (i didn't hear his name) where everyone was listening, here goes:

Kuya: Saang school kayo nag-aaral?
Iji: UP po.
Kuya: O? A, dyan sa Manila. Anong course?
Iji: Halu-halo e.
Kuya: A. Ako din UP e, Diliman, Conservatory of Music.
Iji: A...
Kuya: Dyan ba sa Manila meron ding Music?
Iji: Wala. Kinanya nyo na lahat e!
Kuya: Eh econ, meron?
Iji: Wala rin. Kinanya nyo na nga e! Lahat na e.
Kuya: O, wag ka masyadong tampuhin, ang bilis magtampo nitong si ano e.

I never knew until last Tuesday that making your own music was fun (plus it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be -- or maybe that's because the people I was with were inspired?? o naninibago lang ako dahil magaling lang talaga sila. haha. dapat hindi nila mabasa to, laki ulo.)

Yon. Anyway, I'm also very grateful Karen posted something about Romeo X Juliet in her blog. I am now an addict. I don't have the patience to download it via torrent, so I'm watching it at crunchyroll(another one of my newly discovered highly useful sites).

I've also been wanting to listen to Brewrats at 99.5, but everynight I can't resist sleeping early so I have never been able to tune in at 9-12.

I'll spend the rest of my day in MMP, visiting ina. That reminds me, it's been a decade.
