#01: Introductions are required.
(Issa? Here goes the retelling, hence the change in user photos. I guess I'll do this as long as I want to, but as I write this mukhang pupunta kami ng Baguio for a week, so no updates till then. And chilly weather. And before I freeze to death I'll start this thing. Who knows, baka maging screenplay ito sa Cinemalaya. Aaaack, dreaming endlessly.)
Just go and get it, Niko.
I don't wanna.
You know where it is, right?
Yes, I know. I saw it last night when I was looking for an old notebook. It's in my rack of paper junk and everything else.
Alam mo naman pala kung nasaan eh! Now get that piece of paper and type down all the things you see listed under that heading. Each and every one, Niko. In bullet points, please. Thank you.
Ang kulit. I don't think we have to drill that point down. Let's just say it's a lot of achievements.
Well, not like Jaja. She's a presidential awardee, after all.
And I didn't know Sarah before that, so I guess it doesn't hurt. But I didn't know Jaja won the award.
Nag-switch ka naman ng topic. The achievements, Niko, the achievements. I know you want to emphasize something.
Let's just say it's a lot of achievements nga.
Like?
I dunno. I read that before, for the campaign blog, and I didn't pay any attention. Marami kasi eh. And I don't want to get intimidated at all. I'll be talking to them a lot, I told myself, kasi I'll be giving them ambush interviews and stuff. Feeling journalist and all. But surprising the achievements never got in the way.
Never got in the way? Ayun naman pala. Then get the effing SPOA and type the achievements down!
Eh ayoko nga!
Niko, Niko, Niko. Up till now you haven't got the balls to open it up and look at the text. And I don't care if her photo is beside it, just write the entire thing down!
And so? I just realized those things don't really matter, because ako na rin nakapansin nun. All those awards, they're out of the window.
Awards? I didn't know that.
Or maybe school honors. You know how politics works in student bodies, they'll get the most intelligent and the most charismatic person around. And maybe that's why they got her. I guess they're lucky. She got the most votes among the four candidates. Two pairs, two seats. Nanalo rin si Jaja.
And out of the window?
Because when it all started, parang wala lang. Nadala ako ng charisma, I must admit.
Oo nga. I also have a photo. Galing sa'yo ata, nasa Multiply mo. Pretty ha, in fairness.
Eh bakit meron ka?
Wala lang. Bakit ba?
All right, I'll get the SPOA.
Good. Bakit nga ba na sa'yo pa yun?
I figured I'll need it for the next election. I'll blog about it again.
I wonder whether she'll run. Batch representative? Maybe college assembly president?
Wala, ayoko pa ring tignan.
Duwag ka talaga, Niko.
I wonder whether Issa's sung well sa UST kanina?
Switch topic na naman, Niko.
Mahabang kwentuhan ito. Pagbigyan na, please.
