Sobrang nakakafrustrate ang araw ko kahapon. After our GA, sobrang bumuhos ang ulan... Waaaaahhhhh... Most of my orgmates forgot to bring their own umbrellas kaya ayun... nagkandangloloko-loko na... I'm off to the student center for Stillwaters worship service after the meeting. We waited for like 15 or 20 minutes hoping for the rain to tone down a bit. But Jepoy and I can't wait for so long so we decided to take the risk. I shared my umbrella with him dahil wala siyang dala. Ayun... syempre lumalakas ang ulan at sobrang basa kaming dalawa. Not only that, I was wearing my new pair of shoes that time and I can feel the rain seeping through my socks... Shemsss... sabi ko na nga ba dapat hindi ko muna sinuot yung bago kong tapatot... Haaaayyy... Jepoy and I can't take the rain any more so we stopped by the UP main lib muna. Naghintay ulit kami ng mga 15 or 20 minutes pero ayaw talagang paawat ng ulan. Pasaway... (Parang kumakanta si Agwe ng Rain from the Broadway Musical Once on this Island..) Hindi na rin kami nakapaghintay ni Jepoy kaya sumugod na kami. So we're like soaking wet nung nasa loob na kami ng jeep papuntang Katipunan. And siyempre, nakalimutan ko na bumabaha pala sa entrance ng student center pag umuulan. So ayun, sumugod ako sa baha ng walang pag-aalinlangan and take note, suot ko ang bago kong sapatos... Waaaaaahhhhh... I wanna cry at that moment talaga nung na-feel ko na pumapasok yung tubig sa shoes ko. 'Di ko na naiisip na magtanggal ng shoes dahil sobrang lakas na nang ulan and I'm carrying a lot of things. Haaaayyyy... Kainis talaga... Kulang na lang kumanta ako ng 'eto ako... basang-basang basa sa ulan... walang masisilungan... walang malalapitan... Kaya ayun ang theme song ko kahapon. Nakuha ko pang mag-dinner with the Stillwaters people after the worship service. At nakita ko si Patrick Lubenia from MT-G sa McDo Katips. Then nag-photo-op kami dun.

Early this morning, I texted the ME freshies inviting them for lunch. But it seems like each of them has his/her own thing. Pero thank God dahil nag-confirm si Gelo na makakapunta daw siya. Si David din nag-text tapos ininvite niya rin sila Ariane and Carlo.
I was at the Beach House na by 12nn when I saw Gelo coming. Kwento kwento muna about life and everything. Then Ariane and Carlo arrived followed by Feb and Dominic. Ervian also came pero sandali lang. 'Di na nakahabol yung mga nagsabi na hahabol sila. Nandun kami sa beach house ng hanggang 3pm playing cards and kwentuhan to the max. Umalis kaagad si Feb and si Gelo kaya 5 na lang kaming natira. We decided to take a walk and go to the new Engineering Library. Nagkuwentuhan din kami dun hanggang 5pm, then we ate isaw. Yeba!!!! Hehehehe!!! Sobrang nag-enjoy ako ngayon kahit hindi ko nagawa ang mga dapat kong gawin. Hehehehe!!! Ang saya-saya!!! Parang naging freshie ulit ako dahil nakasama ko sila. Hehe!!! Thank God for the nice weather!!!!

When Disaster Strikes

4:36 PM, Saturday, July 07, 2007 | Link to this post | 0 comments

I really don't know what am I gonna write here. Disaster talaga 'pag nasa harap ako ng PC. I should be doing a research for my ME 186 paper pero ano ang ginagawa ko... hala sige.. friendster at you tube. Musta naman 'yun? Wahahahahaha... I was just wondering why the internet can't give me the information I need for my paper. Haaayy... Information Overload... I think it would be better for me to do 'manual' search na lang at the Eng'g Lib.

I should be having dinner with the Stillwaters pips last night but ate Flo and Dwight didn't text me. That's the only thing that I look forward to yesterday. It was Celso who told me that no one wants to have dinner and all people made their way back home. Hello? I mean it's a Friday... why is everyone so excited to go home? Well, it seems like I'm the only one who's not excited to go back home. Haaaayyy.. I wanna reward myself pa naman dahil katatapos lang ng exam ko last Wednesday and I really want to have a break. Masyado yata akong na-pressure sa studies.

How about my ME classmates? It's sad to say that I don't find time to bond with them anymore. The fact that I've been left behind for graduation hindered me from spending time with them. Most of them, kaklase ko lang sa isa or dalawang major subjects. I was one of those 'unlucky' people who didn't pass ME 186 last sem, so I have to take it again this sem. Those who passed that course last sem are taking ME 187 now, most of them are in that class. It hurts me a lot whenever I see them outside the classroom waiting for their 187 class (186 is scheduled right before 187).

'I should be there with them..' That's the thing that always comes to my mind every after my 186 class. I don't want to be seen by them getting out of that small cold room with younger people, people whom I'm not comfortable with. That's why I'm always trying my best to walk as fast as I could without them noticing me and get out of the ME dept. in no time. It hurts a lot din whenever they talk about their 187 class and do their assignments together in the library. Minsan I feel like I'm out-of-place when they talk about their power plant design proposals. Hay.. Basta yun... I seems like I need to learn to do things on my own from now on. I shouldn't be depending on them always. This is the real disaster...

The Sad Tale Of Gian

3:10 AM, Monday, July 02, 2007 | Link to this post | 0 comments

Grabe!!!!!! Sobrang hirap ng ME 186 (Power Plant Engineering I).... I haven't finished solving the problem set. I think I need to review my ME 63 (Thermodynamics) first before I can answer the problems. But there's a bigger problem, my book is with Rai and she's in Korea right now. Waaaaaahhhhh!!!!!! Sobrang nakaka-frustrate na! To think that this is my second time to take this subject (got a grade of 5 from another prof last sem).

EEE 1 first exam is on Wednesday. I've been practicing solving problems since Saturday but I think I need to practice more. Then we've been given another assignment in ME 186. Well do 2 research presentations on the 19th. Take note, 2 presentations to be submitted on the same day. May mas hihirap pa ba dyan? Tapos we're required to propose some improvements daw dun sa report namin by giving our own equations. Thesis ba 'to? Balita ko walang thesis ang ME. Waaaaahhhhhh...... ME 186 is so demanding.
