I've been coughing for a week now. My dad said I may need to see a doctor to get antibiotics. Why do I have to get sick everytime my vacation starts? So much for all my "outdoor" plans... tsk tsk tsk.

In other news, my standing on my online courses still isn't getting any better. I've got a sneaking suspicion my classmates in there think that I am an idiot. This is the problem when you work with "accomplished" people. They take everything seriously.

Gah. I'll be so happy once I put both of these courses behind me. So PO'd with people I don't even know... -.-"

Today is the first day since summer vacation that I'm not sick at all. Looks like I've made it a habit of getting sick during vacations.

I am kinda regretting taking my courses online as it seems that it takes up a lot more time than when taken in class. I've got such "uptight" classmates (or online-mates) and I don't understand what the hell they're talking about half the time. The book's not helping either with the hefty $50-something tag on it. So much money for a crap I'm not interested reading.

At this point it looks like summer is going to be stressful rather than a dull one. Is this a good thing? My headache begs to differ.

Thank God for pills.

Do you know what a $10 burger tastes like?

It tastes exactly like a $2 burger.

 

 

 

(The beer was good though)

Two more exams to go, and I'll be a "free agent" again this summer. No commitments until sometime in July. I think I may have to look for another job though since my bank account's just crying out for income. 

I didn't go to the bowling night they have organized tonight someplace because (1) I suck at bowling big time (2) There won't be that much people going in there. Besides, the beer's been good lately and I just don't want to start binge drinking just yet. Not until everything's done...or at least, not until I'd have the money to pay for it.

The days have been good lately, and so have the nights. Well what do you know, everything will indeed fall into the right place in the end...at least, it seems to be doing so at this point.

And that's all for now... Weekends, here I come!!!

Cheerio!

Ang Pilipino'y kaparis ng kawayan,

nakikisayaw sa hangin, nakikisayaw:

kung saan ang ihip

doon ang hilig,

kaya hindi siya nabubuwal, hindi nabubuwal.

Di tulad ng punong niyog,

ayaw yumuko, ayaw lumuhod,

kaya siya nabubuwal, nabubuwal.

 

Iyan ang sabi-sabi,

ewan lang kung totoo.

Pero kung totoo ang sabi-sabi,

lagot tayo!

 

Ang Pilipino'y kaparis ng kalabaw,

napakahaba ng pasensiya, napakahaba:

kung hinahagupit

walang imik,

kaya hindi siya pinapatay, hindi pinapatay.

Di tulad ng baboy-damo,

ayaw sumuko, ayaw patalo,

kaya siya pinapatay, pinapatay.

 

Iyan ang sabi-sabi,

ewan lang kung totoo.

Pero kung totoo ang sabi-sabi,

lagot tayo!

--Jose F. Lacaba
