*sigh*
good question! mwahahaha... how i wish i could have had asked this one a few hours ago when we--lorsky, tasia, inna, and i--interviewed the top 2 applicants for the different committees for the fair.
grabe! i didn't expect that it was going to be such an agonizingly long process. we were supposed to start at ten thirty, but due to unforeseen circumstances (mainly, ms sol being called away for an 'emergency' meeting) we began around eleven fifteen, a quarter of an hour later than our original plan. we finished with all the interviews at about one fifteen in the afternoon, and finished the deliberations at quarter to three .it took a bit longer than needed because we kept on straying from the topic. biruin niyo, mula sa topic ng food and drinks com head nakaabot kmi ng club manila east at bora. mwahahaha.
the three of us (inna, tasia, and i; lorra was gone by then) had a really hard time making the final decision. all the applicants had their own strengths and weaknesses. it took us more than an hour to just pick out which girls to get. pero i'm really satisfied and uber zuper OOHber happoe with next year's "line-up," i just hope those who were not so very fortunate enough to get accepted would not be ever so much bitter, instead, take it as a challenge to find another way to serve the student body. kasi really... ergg... i feel ever so much weird when people don't get the fact that the people who were placed in positions of authority got there because they really deserve it and they are the best ones for the job.
haruumm... uber funny kanina coz we were gushing about how we kept on talking about junior year in the past tense. so when we have to say the phrase 'last year' we say 'kanina' instead. mwahaha... hard to believe i actually survived to be a senior. mwahahaha.
i bumped into ate jali in school this afternoon. to say that the situation felt awkward is an understatement, and i'm sure the same goes for her too. haay...
mutti and i postponed our shang trip, we'll be going there tomorrow. i'm uber excited. hehe, ang babaw. wala lang, its been quite a long time (say, a century? mwahaha) since my last visit to the 'city' hehe. can't wait to rejoin 'civillization.'
~*~
high points of the day:
1. friend gave me a slice of my fave cake: chocochip cheesecake from chocokiss! AAWW... didn't think she'd take it seriously but she did. yehey, craving pangs have been put to rest. i love my friend. and i'm pretty sure she sorta hates me right now coz i'm not replying to any of her messages. wahaha... wala na kasi akong load. but she's with jio anyway, so i guess... :)
2. being with steph, nica, inna, and tasia - even if it was just for a short while. UBER FUN! just the sight of my friends totally turned a happy day into a happy happy happy day.
3. inna got me pasalubong from bora! black tie-dye pants! mwahaha... now i have chill pants. i.am.an.ecstatic.gurleloid.
4. finalizing the list of comheads for fair 2005-2006! yeah!!!!!! ACCOMPLISHMENT! :D

I'll probably get a copy of East of Eden. They were talking about this book in Oprah. mwahaha... sounds interesting and thought provoking. aah... to read a good book, its like feeding your soul.
definitely no longer searching for utopia, an ergaslophobic student and aspiring thespian, a true blue Filipina and Assumptionist, existing in a state of utter discombobulation, *BROKE*, and fattening myself up in time for the next human sacrifice ritual in tondo, manila...

==:::A Few Friendly Reminders from your Resident Sane Psycho:::==
life is an unequivocally fast paced string of events, where the essence of a lifetime can be captured in a single breath, love can develop in a second, and where a long journey can feel like just another ride in the metro rail...
so put on your pink tinted glasses, wear your cheesiest smile. life's too short and much too precious to waste with the frivolities of a shallow existence.
let's limbo!
change is the only constant thing in life.
though it is most difficult to cope with change, we must.
it is survival. it is evolution.
but then again,
what if this change is brought about by paranormal sensations and emotions, unforeseen circumstances, hormonal imbalances, and... the weather?
what if this change is caused by things that are not things. forces that are immaterial?
how do we cope?
how do we end the relentless and crazed see-saw of intense emotions churning deep within us?
how do we stop misery?
how do we prolong happiness?
with a four millimeter bullet?
with a cup of peppermint-tasting cyanide?
with prayer?
i don't know.
i can't even begin to pretend to know, or to comprehend.
and i'm sure,
neither can you.
and it scares me.
it scares us.
that this we cannot understand.
everything else --science, mathematics, ratios, proportions, wars, peace talks, chocolate sprinkles and gum drops, ponies and rabbits, Nobel awards-- we know.
but this,
this simple shift of light and darkness,
this slight distinction,
this sudden rearranging of matter, molecules, and sensations.
this indescribable phenomena.
this we cannot even begin to grasp.
illogical, senseless, strange, odd.
fleeting, momentous, gargantuan, colossal.
what is the meaning behind this change in mood? in feeling?
what is the real root? the common cause?
perhaps we have been doomed to be this way.
to not understand.
to be left in the dark.
doomed to be able to adapt with everything else but this simple swing.
this simplistic issue.
never to find a way to evolve around it.
but perhaps.... in this case,
evolution is not survival.
for if you can just grin and bear it.
take it for what it is.
let go of the logic behind it.
perhaps then, survival is possible.
change is not imperative.
accepting is a prerogative, the answer, the key.
