Ex-Mamugz

My final sem had a twist. I was transferred to another group --the Bugstato. After the new groupings was posted, we tried to make some requests in which was later on denied.

If you'll ask me at this very moment, I'd say I'm happy with how things had turned out to be. The other "transferees" don't feel the same (I'm betting on it) because of personal reasons. And for this, I wonder why I differ from how they feel.

*I feel kinda tired at the moment. Hehe. Guess I'll have to cut this here for now... I'll make an update soon. Oh, I'm planning to blog on two things. One's a list. And the other is a "how-to" post. :D Ja ne!*

Crocodile Park, Finally!

I had fun yesterday though I didn't want to go near animals even if they're caged. All animals. Hahaha! Birds, ostrich, monkeys, phyton, lizards, squirrel, and whatelse is there.. Have I mentioned the crocodiles (especially Pangil)? Sheesh. Pangil's so big. I told M that he'll be accommodated inside that crocodile's stomach. :D Really. :)

Maybe he thinks I'm bluffing. And that I didn't enjoy our date.... which is not true. I enjoyed it, really. I'm not an animal lover.... I don't want to touch that phtyon's body... Nor place a baby croc (with mouth taped) in my shoulders... I shielded his body against a running baby ostrich towards our direction... I refused to go any nearer those cages containing reptiles (even birds, and OK, I admit..... all animals.. there)... So what if I didn't? I enjoyed Crocodile Park in my OWN way. Hahaha! :D Like taking a look at animals from a "safe" distance (I know they're caged. But they mustn't be overwhelmed. Hehehe. What did I say?)... Taking some pictures of myself and some other cute animals I've seen (like the squirrels, the tiger, and the playful orangutan). Asking M to take pictures of me.. Taking our pictures... Strolling with him.... And sipping some cool shake beside the river while winding down.

I felt like a child. Hahahahaha! *C'mon! Lemme finish..* I felt like a child, not that almost everyone there were kids but because I can't remember the last time I went to a zoo. OK, it wasn't a zoo. But seeing those various animals makes you think and feel that it was. I felt like a child 'cause I felt the excitement in going there, in strolling, like I was when I was younger.

Next time, I want us to play badminton. :) Or go to NCCC Mall and ride those electronic-and-furry-animals-that-needs-token... I don't think he wants to ride those. Oh well, if he really won't, I'll let him take pictures of me. Great idea, isn't it? LOL ♥

Crushed

Blurry water was made clear..
Folds ironed..
Path brightened..
Dusts blown.
Salty water drops soaked pillows
And drained the heart.

Dress in black.
Wear the cloak.
Hide the bruises.
Put on a red lipstick.

Faces are buried in hands.
Bury my head in the sand.
Bust my ass.
Drench me with vodka.

Truth gobsmacked me.
Pieces are told.
Dress in blue.
Sink in the pool of sadness.

Wish on a star.
Hope it'll come true.
Dropped pennies in a well.
Crossed my fingers til it swelled.
Wrote on wishing papers and
burned into a cinder.
Prayed.

Don't know what else to do.
Suture, please.

Down to 1

Finally, this is the moment I have been waiting for...

I'm down to one --my last sem in school. Elated, I am. I wanna take pictures and create more meaningful friendships with my classmates. FINALLY. After 5 years, I'm about to take my last semester. I'll be graduating soon. (If God permits.♥)

 Palakpakan! :) Hehehe.

For some reasons, I don't want to graduate yet.
1) Allowance not guaranteed.
2) No money = Find Money.
And if you don't find money, there are times you want Earth to open wide and swallow you whole to escape humiliation --of being one of the tambays (a liability, in English.. Haha).
3) No money = Stay at Home.
Or if you're in dire need of getting some "downtown feel", don't expect to receive money from parents.
4) No allowance = No Savings.
Worst is, you'll have "no more savings".
5) Regular Jeepney Fare.
I don't like this one. Hahahaha!
6) Sure work is not guaranteed.
I'm thinking of a business as early as now. Hehe

Oh well, I'll take this one at a time. Live today and not worrying much for tomorrow. I might not enjoy the journey much if I become preoccupied with senseless things, right? Right! :)

I ♥ My Berx

Torn between going and not going, I decided to go afterall. My Dad gave me my money back, so I have enough bucks to enjoy my day.

Ahfat III was our first stop. We were soooo full. Btw, seven out of eleven were present. RA dropped by though I wasn't able to catch her. S was I-don't-know-where-she-is. A had her review. RT, I-don't -know-too. Anyways, we had 5 different noodle soups, 8pcs siopao (I'm not sure if it's really 8) *I love their Black Mongo Pao*, 2 different dimsums (shrimp ball? and I forgot what's the name of the other one... x2 or x3 each dimsum), siomai, tausi spareribs?, 1 shrimp rice roll?. *Haay. I actually didn't mind the name of the dish much. Everything's delicious.*

The bill was shouldered mostly by P. We should be paying 150+ bucks each................ (A million thanks to his generosity.) The outstanding memory for this day was that N finished all 5 noodle soups. Sulit talaga! Simot. Palakpakan!

P needed to stay in their restaurant so we tried to drop by our batchmate's thanksgiving party at Torres St. 30mins earlier than the party. Unfortunately, no one was still there. We just called her to say our greetings and went to N's house at Maa, where we ate ice cream and talked and talked and talked.

N went for a night swim (which hasn't pushed thru), and the rest of us were at Basti's Brew. I love their coffee and their pasta. The ambiance was chillax. The crew's halloween headband was cute. :) Did I mention that I love their coffee?

We continued talking and talking and talking. I just love them. *Thanks so much for your concern and for your love. I thank God I have friends like you.*  (And I hope they'll get to read this.)

RU was with me til my family arrived downtown to have an ice cream (and to fetch me....) though his eyes are heavy. He's a gent. And I love him. He knows that.

I ♥ My Berx. They're the best. Mwah! Hope we'll get a perfect attendance next time. Til then! :)

*I'll upload some pictures tomorrow in a different post.. Some kind of a P.S..... I'm already sleepy.*
