What presents do you give a girl?
Imed answer: Flowers, candy, chocolates.
What a certain Pisay guy gave me (for reasons unknown to me): his NSO birth certificate worth 300 pesos at your nearest City Hall (?).
Why do you give a girl presents?
Imed answer: So that she'll forgive you or like you or start falling for you.
Reason certain Pisay guy gave me his birth certificate: "Para kapag manganak ka, pwede mo gayahin lahat ng nasa birth certificate kagaya pangalan, oras at araw ng panganak, etc."
Imed consensus: Weird way of courting. It's like "Bear my child."
Self-commentary: Bah. Weird lang yung tao.
Sorry, it's nearing the day he gave it to me. Just remembered it.

On Monday, we all wore green or white. Ardynne wore something blue-green (pasaway na bata). Actually, we had to be at the inaguration of our new Dean (at the College of Medicine) and we had to clap when the procession with the dean passes by and carry a banner (made by Athena-san). This means of course that we looked silly and weird. But we were all together, so it wasn't so bad. We were very small compared to the other people there, though... (except my 6 foot classmate).

Another reason life is sad:
Today we were choosing the sizes for our PE uniform (white shirt (with logo?) + maroon jogging pants). Shirt was ok. The smallest size was XXL. Hahaha, XXL for kids.
Everyone felt that the size S pants were too short. (Which led to many people getting the M size since they'd rather the pants be loose and not too short.)
When I tried on the S pants...
It was too long.
Waaaaaaaah.
And sadly, there is no XS.
I think I'm the only one in the block (if not the whole class of Intarmed) with this problem. Waaaaaaaah.

I think life is sad when your very male seatmate in Math 17 combs his hair more than you do, especially if your hair's 10 and one half inches longer than his (give or take an inch).
I ended up combing my hair because of him. Dangit.
To end his continuous combing of his hair (since we had been at it for at least five minutes or so), I stole the comb.
Then he pulled my hair (since he couldn't steal it back).
Waaah. I can't win.

I have met an anime fan :) And he knows a lot of anime too :) We spent part of lunch break talking about so many different anime (from GTO to Saikano to Full Metal Alchemist) :)

I am liking NatSci more and more every day.
We talked about the plot of the first Superman movie. (The part where Lex Luthor makes a missile attack the San Andres Fault and Lois Lane dies and Superman turns back time by reversing the rotation of the Earth.)
Then Sir said this:
"Close your eyes." *follow* "Then imagine your favorite superhero. Then picture yourself next to your favorite superhero. Then erase the head of your superhero and erase your clothing. Then place yourself into the body of your superhero."
"Then you write the name of your superhero on a piece of paper. That will be your name for the rest of the Geo part of NatSci."
Donkadonkdonk. Guess who my superhero was?
Spiderman.
Yes. Now I am Spiderman. Hahahahaha. Athena-san is Violet (from the Incredibles). Dingdong is the Human Torch. Joan-san is Elastigirl. Ardynne-san is *da-dum* the Invisible Man (and thus only the word Man was written on his paper).
Well, there's a girl who's the Incredible Hulk. :) Gender-changed friend. :)
Someone in our class was He-Man. :) Also someone was Red Ranger - from Power Rangers (dangit, I should have written Yellow Ranger). My old batchmate from Zobel was Boy Bawang. :) Sir said "Alam mo, madumi ang factory ng Boy Bawang." Hahahahahahaha.
It's a good thing I didn't take Batman, since my near-name twin took it. Or else more confusion will ensue. >_<
Then Sir made us all say something about the Earth today.
I said: (not correct words, real incident was more jumbled) The two nearest stars to the Earth are the Sun and Alpha Centauri. The sun's light reaches the Earth in 8 minutes. Alpha Centauri's light takes 2.3 (or 2.4) light years to reach the Earth.
Sir: Ba! Kaya nyo yun?
Then Trebor-san: 1 astronomical unit is equal to the distance of the earth to the sun, which is (insert number).
Sir: Sure ka?
Trebor-san: *nod*
Sir: Sabi mo eh. *moves on*
Then JF: The equatorial diameter of the Earth is (insert number). The polar diameter of the Earth is (insert number).
Sir: What's the difference of the two?
JF: *rechecks*
Sir: Alam mo?
JF: *says number*
Sir: Eh ano ang weight ng Earth?
Ardynne: *raises hand* Sir, it is (says number).
I think we Pisay people are too preoccupied with numbers.
Interestingly enough, no one thought to mention that the Earth has seven continents. Namention pa namin yung deepest part of Earth and all the elements in it and all that, ad no one thought of it. Hahahahahahaha.

Math 17 is providing me with material for another story (aka fiction-ripped-off-my-life fiction).
It's just hard to write it when your seatmate wonders what the heck I'm writing in my Math notebook since everything my teacher says is in the book (I mean, module), verbatim.

I think I've found my own true-to-life
Julian Delphiki. His name is perfect too. Not to mention he actually knows who Julian Delphiki is, since he's the only one I know (other than myself) who's read books in the Enderverse.
Now if only a real-life
Edward Elric would show up in my life...

At para una sa lahat (well, except JF who sang-said it complete with clapping number), Happy Birthday Joanne :)
