It's a Fluffaaaay Day~

Okay, don't get me wrong. I know this is the crucial time of the semester (where I should be doing term papers, reviewing for the upcoming finals, finishing my projects, and other stuff) but I can't miss the opportunity to go to a zoo and watch Despicable Me-- all for free. 


Fine. It was our anniversary.


Anyway, just so you know, dear reader, the last time I went to the zoo was a decade ago, more or less. I've been manning Ark Avilon Zoo in Ortigas because it was the nearest zoo in the area.


I know it's kinda weird to celebrate your anniversary in a zoo, but, hey, we enjoyed it. It's like reminiscing your childhood days where all of your fieldtrips during your nurser-kinder-prep years were zoos. 


Ark Avilon Zoo is located in Ortigas, Frontera Verde Area. It's beside The Fun Ranch (that is beside Tiendesitas). It's not your ordinary jungle-type zoo. Patterned after Noah's Ark, Ark Avilon Zoo houses different animals, mostly birds. Entrance fee is P300; P200 for those people who are not taller than their ticketing office (weird rule), and free entrance for babies (12 months - below)


I really like owls. Their eyes are kinda disturbing.

We wandered in the zoo for 2 hours and decided to head to Ayala. I haven't taken my lunch yet, and it was nearing 3pm. We grabbed a shuttle heading to Ayala and ran through Glorietta. 

Despicable me. Yes, that was so despicable of me.

I really like watching movies in 3D especially if the movie itself is in 3D design. No offense, but I did not like Step Up 3D because it doesn't make any sense to me. They're just dancing. What's the big deal of making them 3D? It's freaking the same.

Anyway, the movie was GREAT. I mean, the it's-so-fluffy-i'm-gonna-die part is overrated, but I'd like to say it's novel for me. I've been seeing the trailer for ages and I can't help laughing in that part.

What's fluffier than Agnes?

It's soooo fluffaaaaay!!!


Heading home, I was lucky enough to hitchhike in our operated jeepney. Sam had dinner in our house.

Now, I'm tired of doing school stuff again. Srsly, acads are taming items for me. My professors wanted to eat it me. 

So long, rest days. Hello hell days.

P.S.
Sam bought me this book-- City of Bones (well, the Mortal Instruments series). I'm excited to read it but I must read other things first.

If you had read the book, give me a review! :D

Alam mo 'yun, panalo kami!

Natuwa naman ako sa sinabi ng host kanina (si kuya na overbite), "The winner will receive x-amount pesos and bragging rights."

Tama, bragging rights.

Isa ang Cheerdance Competition sa mga inaabangan kong paligsahan sa UAAP. Iyon na lang kasi ang isa sa mga nakakatuwa at intense panoorin dahil wala talaga akong napapala sa basketball. Bukod sa ayoko nung sports, ayoko din ng nangyayari sa UP. Pero bilib naman ako sa mga players ng university, alam ko namang nagte-train sila ng mabuti. Baka sadyang mahirap lang ang mga kalaban.

Heniwey highway, gusto ko lang i-brag dito na last year ko na sa university pero di pa rin ako nakapanood ng CDC nang live. Ewan. Baka minamalas lang talaga ako.

First year- made my first violation (yes, cutting classes) just to buy a friggin' ticket at the gym. Too bad, sold-out. I didn't bother to go to Araneta and sleep there the night before the competition. Too risky.

Second year- did the same thing, but this time I used my vacant period. Too bad, again, tickets were sold-out. Tried to contact my friends from other universities (except UST and FEU, you know why) hoping they could reserve me just one ticket. Plan failed. I even befriended a student from NU just in case they don't want to watch. They're pretty nominal in the competition. I mean, they are hardly seen in the competition itself.

Third year- didn't bother to watch it live in Araneta. I even forgot the CDC itself. Maybe because of bad experiences (plus cutting classes). Blame Sam also. Hahaha.

Fourth year- ignorance. Just knew the competition the day itself. Yeah, that makes me stupid. I even planned my last year in the university: watch UAAP, especially CDC, attend the fair, eat in ChoKiss, wander in KNL, play at Teletubby Land, etc. Oh well, there would always be a next year, I guess.

I'm pretty sure that when I watched it live, UP will win. Mwahaha. Flame me but you can't burn me.

Let's go UP!

Depresyon at iba pang guni-guni

Depresyon, parang sa economics, nalulugi ang isang bansa na higit pa sa dalawang quarters. 


Pero sa kaso ko ngayon, hindi naman ako nalugi. Ang depresyon ko ay lungkot, na may kasamang hikbi. Marami akong dahilang kung bakit nakakaranas ako ng depresyon ngayon. Pero sa tingin ko nama'y maglalaho ito nang sabay-sabay bukas, o sa makalawa. 


Alamin ang dahilan ng depresyon ko.


1. Economics Exam


Siguro mga panghabang-buhay ko na itong dahilan kung bakit ako nalulungkot lagi. Paulit-ulti kasi sa utak ko ang linyang, "I did my best but I guess my best wasn't good enough..." Tamang statement sa bawat eksamen na kinukuha ko sa Econ. Hindi ko alam kung nabobobo na'ko through time o bumababa ang comprehension ko, pero sadyang hindi ko na maintindihan ang mag tanong sa test. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang tanong doon. Hindi ko na alam kung ano ang hinihingi ng item. Basta, naguguluhan na'ko sa lahat. 


O kaya nama'y... hindi lang ako nag-aral ng maigi kaya wala akong naintindihan. Ewan. Pero sigurado naman ako sa sarili ko na nag-aral ako. Ang hindi ako sigurado ay kung naintindihan ko ang inaral ko. Oh well, estudyante blues, sisihan kapag nakita na ang results.


Saan? Saan ako nagkamali? 


2. Anti-virus


Oo ako na ang masamang tao dahil hindi ako bumibili ng original na anti-virus para sa aking PC. Kasi naman 'te, ang mahal, e mas mahirap na nga kami sa mahirap na daga. Pero syempre may kabayaran lahat ng pamemeke sa mundo. Sa sobrang galing ng anti-virus ko, na-detect nya yung sarili niya bilang isang virus at nag-self-explode. Dyusko, ganun ba ang nangyayari sa mga sobrang galing na software? Suicidal? Kung mayaman-yaman lang talaga ako, bibili ako ng anti-virus na original, pero sa ngayon, magtuloy muna tayo sa pamemeke. It's bad, yes, I know. Pero ano nga bang aasahan mo sa mga mahihirap na gaya namin?


5k for a bloody anti-virus? Pambili na lang yan ng pagkain. T___T


3. Postpaid Bill


Trivial. Petty. Hindi parin naibibigay ang bill ko. May pambayad nako pero natetempt nakong gamitin dahil wala pa ang bill. Syet. Dumating ka na please bago pako abutin ng tukso.


4. Mga nahuhulog na palamuti sa bag


Kung kilala mo ako, malamang nakita mo na ang bag ko na ginagamit sa school. Maraming nakasakbit sa bag ko, katulad nila Dora, Amerika, Aaron the devil plushie at kung anu-anong button pins. Pero ngayon naglalaho na sila isa-isa. Wala na si Suzaku (nahulog yata sa jeep, yung base na lang ang natira), si Aaron the Devil plushie napigtal (buti na lang nakuha ko kagad), si Dora sinira ng isang katabi kong matabang babae sa jeep (masyado kasing pinagkakasya ang pwet sa napakaliit na space), ang green na lady bug na nawala yata sa isang sinehan sa MoA nung manood kami ng Step Up 3D, at yung iba, ewan, wala nakong alam kung nasan sila. 


Nakaka-depress kasi matagal na sila sa bag ko. Parang pamilya ko na sila. Pero nagbabago nga naman ang lahat-- nagdedepreciate ang mga bagay, naluluma sila at nasisira.
--------------


So far, iyan ang mga bagay na nakakapagpa-depress sakin. Inisip ko nang kumain kanina ng sandamakamak na fries para mapawi ang lungkot pero sabi ko mas mahalagang humaba ang buhay ko. Sa ngayon, wala muna akong gagawing acads. Gugulong lang ako sa kama.
