hmm.
SWP trooping today in a parish in Makati. Woke up on time but was way too groggy to function properly so I ended up leaving late anyway. Jeep, jeep, then bus to Ayala. Met thomspeaks at the Ayala MRT station as I didn't know how to get to the venue - kept him waiting for 45 minutes. So sorry! Against my wallet's better judgement, I got a grande Creme Brulee frap with extra white chocolate in order to function properly. Met Manny while walking along Batangas St. and hitched a ride the rest of the way. We were late by about an hour but we were the second ones there after Mardon. Haha. Dapat pala nakisabay na lang ako kay Mardon since he was coming from BF anyway (he lives in Elizalde I think) :p Oh well.
Wasn't in costume so was one of the "official" photographers. Basically, we took a picture of each of the kids with the cosplayers and there were about 140 kids. Wow. My cam almost overheated but no permanent damage done. I think. The SWP group pics were taken with Oneal and Ruth's cams so will be waiting for them to upload them so I could print them out ^-^ (There are already pics of my family, friends, orgmates, and PHPers on my dorm room corkboard. SWP na lang kulang :p) Oh, and got to try on the C-3PO torso ^-^ So cool. Didn't think it would actually fit but it did. Yay! Meron na akong kick-ass costume na pwedeng mahiram sa SWP :p Problem nga lang is that the helmet will only fit if I cut my hair - there's not enough room inside the helmet for a bun or even a hairnet. Hmm.
The organizers didn't pay us but they fed us really well: sandwiches, kropek, softdrinks, plus lunch of barbeque and rice. The lunch reminded the UP alumni (and student :p) present of typical UP fare: pagkain sa plastic! Wahahaha. Kwentuhan all around before hitching a ride with fallen_nerd (yay may LJ na si Ruth! ^-^) back to Glorietta.
Mom was at Festival today and bought me a shirt. And underestimated my size again. Haay. Why she insists on buying me a size small when I'm obviously not boggles the mind - I have now officially turned over 5 shirts to my 11-year-old sister because of my mom/aunts/ninangs constantly underestimating my size. I could tell the shirt she bought wouldn't fit just by the width of the shoulders. Haay. Then she said "Bakit ang taba mo?". I know she didn't mean anything nasty by it but it still stung. Oh well. Then she told me she was about to get me a blouse from Kamiseta (on sale of course) in size XS but changed her mind. Buti na lang. Hay. I'm hoping this incident will finally convince her that I am not a size small and will never be one.
And now back to your regularly scheduled program: acads, acads, and more acads. Still have to finish the 160 paper, study for 120 lec and lab exams, data analysis for thesis, start paper for 170, and do the 120 labreps.
Why did I join the trooping again?
