Summer's just about ended, and it was quite the fun ride. This summer was about me being here and enjoying the things I had missed out on last summer when I was an ocean away.

I didn't get to go back to beautiful California, but this summer marked me trying a lot of new things, and I have to say, I loved every single minute of it.

Show me celebrities studying at Ateneo like Robi Domingo or Maxine Magalona and it usually takes a while for me to locate him/her (and that's after requiring a short commentary on who exactly I'm looking at). Show me one of the Ateneo Blue Eagles, and I lose it ( Read more... )

(-) Found out early this morning that Fr. Santos Mena, SJ passed away in Spain. That really made me sad, because when he was still assigned here in Manila, we'd hear the 9AM Mass at Mary the Queen Parish and he'd be the celebrant. That was ever since I was little (as far back as I can remember going to Mass). He was a really great man, and he'll be ( Read more... )

I learned several things today.

1. My laptop is very heavy.I feel kind of dumb. :)) I lugged my laptop to school so I could register it at Faura for Ateneo's WiFi and so I'd have something to entertain myself with during my 4 1/2 break between my last class and the Guidance test. But it turns out the WiFi registration is now self-service, so I ( Read more... )

(+) Ma11, baby! (Thank you, Ms. Evang and Ms. Arceo, for all the Algebra classes in H1, H2 and H4.) My idol is Dav though - he got 100% on the diagnostic test. I was sitting right next to him and yet no Math knowledge seeped into my brain. Maybe next time. :P ( Read more... )
