...

not feelin' good now.
not in the mood to draft either.
will just sleep.
later.

takin' my break

i'm havin' my much desired break now after finishing (well, almost) the site development plan for our house design in arch 31. i think i'm gonna have some coffee and donuts after making this post, coz i'm still gonna do my arch 24 plate after this break.

i stayed overnight at nins' and gaux's flat from friday to saturday, and realized that we haven't done much during that time. so we ended up dividing the work (site dev't for me) and planned on working whole day monday since we won't have arch 24. anyway, we're gonna have the esquisse for arch 24 on thursday, and sir alex won't be around till early august. so, we have more than two weeks with no mth class... but i should still work on the architectural drawings as fast as i could. laziness shouldn't hit me now, since i have less a month left before the deadline!

i'm awake now coz i slept from around 5 in the afternoon to almost 9 in the evening. my sister just woke me up. that time, they just got home from the mall, and she showed me stuff they bought. they got me a new cellphone, nokia 3200! i was so surprised, that i even called dinsky thru my cellphone, which ended with a 10:01 call summary (damn one second!). but since i already have lotsa files and texts in my nokia 7250, i decided not to take it and instead let my mom use it. i'll just borrow it sometime if i wanna see a new phone on my hand. hehehe... by the way, they also got a new dvd player and epson printer. i asked them where they got the money to buy these, and told me that our empty lot in the province was sold to my uncle. oh well. we're not gonna use that property anyway. besides, it's located at a kinda hidden place.

okay, i think i'm gonna have my coffee and donuts now.

weekend again

last day of the school week... man, i should really work on my plates this weekend. and i mean work on them hard. i'm already feelin' the tension and pressure as den have said. arch 24 demands lotsa time and energy... and the plate's due on august 5. i don't wanna cram, but hell, i'm not even working on it much till now.

anyway, i'm gonna sleep at nins' place later to do the arch 31 plate due tuesday. haay. good luck to all of us!

june 28 to july 2

well, since i don’t have updates for the past 2 weeks, here goes:

0628 - 0702

monday. our arch 24 class ended up early, so loz, jik and i decided to have another mcdo session at philcoa. then i went to dinsky’s place and he stayed here in our house to study. haha… uber serious. ü we went to mini-stop to have my ice cream float to end the day.

tuesday. we had a review session for the first exam in arch 26. as usual, i felt sleepy in arch 57. and after sir sarthou’s discussion in arch 31, gaux, nins and i went to our prospect sites to take pictures and talk about what we’re gonna do for the design. i went back to melchor hall to see rika and the others, then went to AS. mymp was there! they played “a little bit” and “everything little thing he does is magic”. and after that, rika and i went back again to melchor to see benj. and mymp was there too! haha! they played the two songs too, plus their good version of “emotions”. haay… i really love that group. i was even happier when i saw my car sandwiched by juris’ and chin’s car. hehehe… so benj, riks and i went to mini-stop (not again! hehe.) to have some floats, took some pictures, then went home.

wednesday. woke up pretty late, so I had to rush all the way to my ge 11 class. well, we already had our first fieldwork, and walking and walking with a surveying tape really sucks. oh well. i guess i have to get used to it anyway. and after arch 60, we (loz, jik, nins and i) had another mcdo session at philcoa. as usual, uber laugh trips. :p

thursday. first day of july. went home early enough to study for the dreaded arch 26 first exam.

friday. the dreaded arch 26 exam. weird, i was able to answer all the questions (which made me feel good actually), but the problem is that i dunno if they're correct! and after arch 19, went to nins’ and gaux’s place to do the design program. was there till past 11 pm because… nins and I fell asleep! good thing gaux went out with jiddu and the others to watch spidey 2. nins woke up when she pressed the buzzer. hahaha. ü

okay. that was just one week. and weekend’s here again... i’m gonna make this week’s update later. or tomorrow. or sunday. or next week. or not. hehehe. :p

spiderman + arkikada = fun!

at long last, i 've seen spiderman 2 already! i watched it yesternight with kayish, patrick, jik, and lozzie. it was my birthday treat though it's already two weeks overdue. hehehe... nins was also with us but watched kill bill 2 with her mom. anyway, the movie has a good storyline and great effects, though sometimes they didn't look real at all. pat and i laughed and laughed with peter's stupid/dumb scenes. and it's better than spidey 1. i think. :)

after the movie, we walked around and ate ice cream at dairy queen, then went home already, with airport eksenas (hehe... nins started them!). pat was the first one to go, next is kayish, and the three of us (loz, jik and i) ended up having another mcdo session at philcoa after thinking where we should take our rides home. hehe. had apple pie and hot chocolate with jik, while loz got regular-sized fries from her globe autoload. hehehe... got out of mcdo past 10 pm. lozzie's parents came, while jik and i took our rides home. i got home in around 20 minutes, while jik got home around 11:20 pm. anlayo talaga ng teritoryo niya! haha. :p

haay... a happy night that was. sana maulit. :)

billiards and bowling naman! i just found out that some of us are also into them. we're planning to play those stuff when we have the free time and money. hehe. as i've said many times already, we're really busy with arki stuff. and oh, p&l meeting at 10:30 am. whoops, i think i gotta go...

hehe. later!

sunday evening

haay... haven't done anything academical for this weekend. i should have done my arch 24 drawings and arch 31 program, read my arch 19 and 57 readings, studied in advance for arch 26, worked on my ge 11 fieldwork, prepared my arch 60 stuff, and many many more...

but no.

i spent the two whole days lyin' on the bed, eating too many, watchin' tv shows and movies, talkin' to different people on the phone... in short, i spent the two whole days bumming around.

oh well. i guess the weekdays are so tiring that when the weekend comes, i always think of nothing but sleep and sleep and sleep. btw, i'm here on the dining table, with my mom, dad, sis, tito and cuz. we're eating the left-overs from yesterday's celebration. for the whole day, i ate nothing but pizzas, lychee dessert and mango float. hahaha. :p

nocturnal (again?!)

my phone conversation with rika just ended minutes ago. well, we talked about different stuff, but mostly about her... haha. peace out rika. :) grabe, laugh trip talaga. i kept on telling her that "they" look good together. hahaha. :) and when we were about to end our conversation, _ (another one!), texted her. okay rika, sing the song, sing the song... :p

anyway, just stayed here in the house all day saturday, and talked to dinsky in the afternoon. talked about, well, some serious matters, which made me feel more depressed. good thing he's always there to listen... i dunno what'll happen to me if we didn't had that talk.

we also prepared for a small dinner celebration because my sister just graduated from college. wow. i hope i'll be able to finish my studies here too. oh well. so, i made some mango floats and pizzas. yummy. there were also pancit (mom's specialty) and lychee something (i forgot its name) for dessert. little feast, big tummy after. ü

after eating, talked to alej, mitch, dinsky and rika on the phone. different topics with different people. alej and i talked about his first few weeks as a up diliman student (he's takin' up bshe btw), mitch and i talked about some of my thoughts, dinsky and i talked more about what we were talkin' about hours before, while rika and i talked about... read the first paragraph. :p

haay. hafta sleep earlier than yesterday. gotta do my arch 24 today. no tamad day dapat.

apple

it's been a year na rin pala since apple passed away... she was my very good dog that was with me for 9 years. half of my life. i remember the days when we used to run around, chasing each other, the times when i force her to behave and take a bath so i could hug her after that, the moments when she's with me when i'm alone in the house... i surely miss her.

well, that makes it five.

depression

lotsa things are pullin' me down...

one
i have this feeling that many things have changed... even myself. i used to be always on the go, never missing any happening or event. but now, since i'm busy with arki, i always stay in the college instead of hang-out with some of my friends whom i really had great bonds before. man, i really miss all of them. and to make it worse, i think the gap between me and them is continuously widening... or i think i'm just too pessimistic about it. there are things i do not want to do, but i still keep on doing. well, i cannot blame myself completely. situations around me just really make me irrational. maski ako, sobrang nanibago sa sarili ko.

two
it's really hard to survive academics in up. i have seven subjects this sem, and all of them are really serious ones. statics of rigid bodies, construction, design, building laws, arki history, surveying, urban planning... ugh. with many subjects comes many requirements. and actually, i have lotsa things to do already. and i haven't done much yet.

three
sometimes i feel like giving up studying because of certain reasons. how i wish i could finish my studies here. till now, i really don't have an idea when our family's gonna leave for the us. what if we leave at august or september? my efforts in school for june and july will just be useless. like, man, i can't even lay my plans for the next few months because i don't know if i'll still be here in that times. and when i leave, i dunno when i'll be back again.

four
it's really depressing to know that one of my acquaintances, whom i already consider a friend, is under comatose right now. for the first few minutes upon knowing it, i kept on askin' myself if it's really true. well, it is. my friend told me not to tell anyone yet, so the sadness is trapped in me till now. all i could do now is pray for my good friend...

i think i have to sleep now... but i'm sure, when i wake up, all of these will still run in my mind.

haay... i need someone to talk to.

nocturnal

still awake. and not sleepy at all.

got home around 11:30 pm from nins' and gaux's apartment. we worked on our design program which will be presented on tuesday. while we were working, gaux left the place with jid to watch spiderman 2 with some of the arkikada people. so nins and i continued doing it until lozzie called. while waiting for nins' and loz's phone chitchat to end, i went to nins' bed...

and fell asleep.

i woke up around past 10 pm, and was surprised to see nins sleeping beside me. but i didn't mind, so i slept again. good thing gaux came around past 11 pm, so we woke up to open the door for her. if it wasn't for gaux, i still might be sleeping in their place right this very moment. hahaha. ü

anyway, i wasn't able to attend the jma orientation seminar because i'm hell busy with arki stuff. oh well. all of my upis barkada were there, even dinsky, while i was working on some academical stuff. sheesh. i guess this is what's really meant to happen.

so for monday, we don't have class. but i'm still gonna be at arki for the arki forum apps orientation and site picture-taking with gaux and nins for design. and i'll do something else. i'm so excited with it. can't wait for that day!
