Anawim is still doodling. :p

I have been posting my stuff at my multiply site for months already. Unless I change my mind, I won't be blogging here anymore. (I realized that Friendster blog is not interactive, and it's less easy to manage.) So if you wanna know what's up with me, or if you just wanna make sure that I still exist,  then CLICK. Tenchoo. :-*

Surf now, surf later.

That is: surf net now, surf clothes later.

*sigh*

I will wash clothes later. Tambak na kasi eh. Hahaha! I need exercise, anyway. And when I come to think of it, I kinda miss washing clothes. It has a relaxing effect, you know. (Well, aside from feeling tired after, there's a sense of fulfillment.) Hahaha. Okay, so am I just making myself feel good? :))

Anyway, today I really planned to attend the ABC challenge in Gabay. But I woke up late (for others, 7 a.m. is early, but for me who has to travel for an hour, and who has to prepare for an hour too, 7 a.m. is so damn late already.)

And upon waking up, I realized that I should have woken up around 3 a.m. to start writing my part for our Junior Seminar Paper. Whew. It should have been easy for me. All in all, I would write 6 pages: 2.5 pages for the Theoretical and Conceptual Framework, 2.5 pages for the Review of Related Literature, and 1 page for the Definition of Terms. Sisiw lang, dude, right?

But no.

Philosophically speaking, lumulutang ako ngayon sa konsepto, at kung hindi ako makaahon agad, feeling ko malulunod na ako.

You see, my part is in Psychology.

Okay, I like Psych. Kaya nga track ko yun, di ba? :D

Pero ang hirap kasi eh. Our topic is about the selected television commercials of winning and losing senatorial candidates during the May 2007 elections. Sounds fun, right? Ma'am Guevara liked it. I thought I like it too. Of course, I still like it. (I have always wondered why Pichay lost while Trillanes won. I have a theory: baduy talaga si Pichay. Jowk. Isa siyang malaking jowk.)

But it is only now (these past few days actually) that the gravity of psychology concepts started to weigh down on me. Darn! Communication concepts are less complicated, though they may be more technical. Videostyle Theory. Propaganda. Political Advertising. Hay...

Anyway, the theories and concepts I was planning to use for Psychology were Information Processing and Choice.

Information Processing is too broad. And it belongs to Cognitive Psychology, which I don't really fancy. Choice belongs to Social Psychology. Fine. I like Social Psychology though I haven't taken it up yet. The problem is that we haven't discussed Choice in my previous Psych classes. And though I have been making choices all my life, I haven't seen it as a psych process. Oh well, there's always a first time for everything, right? Great. (Sarcastic mode.)

At any rate, I am really looking forward to finishing my 6-page part. But I dread writing it. So help me God.

*sigh*

So I guess washing clothes will be a great diversion. That is, after I finish posting this cathartic blog entry.

Shoot.That.Ball.

Intense.

It was crowded in the cafeteria. People were really fired up. The Ateneo players were hot. And the game was a close call.

I was really so damn happy that ADMU won versus DLSU by 3 points (80-77)! ^_^

Medyo nakaka-badtrip nga lang ung TV sa caf, may topak, kaya hindi namin nakita kung paano nag-struggle ang La Salle during the last seconds of the overtime--to no avail. Oookay, I don't hate La Salle, ah. Loyal lang talaga ako sa aking pinakamamahal na school.

It was really nice to watch the game. I thought I wouldn't be able to watch it coz we have 430-730 PSY110 class. Good thing, Ma'am Lolarga dismissed us early enough to be able to catch the last quarter of the game.

As Jo commented, it was quite funny to see Atenistas screaming, cheering, and cursing at the top of their lungs as if they were really watching live in Araneta Coliseum. You should have seen us! If I weren't an Atenean, I would have laughed at how pathetic we looked and sounded. But that's life--and when the game's intense, you just can't help but lose yourself with the crowd. (Yeah right, I was screaming too. Wala sa face ko noh? Hahaha!)

Another weird thing about Ateneans is their avid fondness for Chris Tiu. Every girl  (and gay and guy) likes Chris Tiu. When it was his turn to shoot the ball, we would cheer for him as soon as his cute, close-up face appeared in the screen. Kim even said that even if he wouldn't be able to shoot the ball, she would still clap for him. Awwww, how touching. Other basketball players were not treated with the same admiration. Hay, ang astig kasi talaga niya eh.

Anyway, it was really a fitting ending to Ateneans' day. But I also feel for La Sallistas. May nakasabay ako sa LRT pauwi na mga La Sallistas, and one guy was saying how exhausted he's been, and if La Salle had won, he wouldn't feel so bad cutting classes to watch the game. Sad noh? Gosh, I would feel the same way had I been in his shoes. Good thing Ateneo won. Woohoo.

At any rate, it's nice that La Salle is back. Perhaps they deserved their suspension. Nag-cheat sila, di ba? C'est la vie. Time to move on. Sana makabawi sila. I wish them luck. But I am really praying for Ateneo. Siyempre, loyal dapat. :))

Hay, now more than ever, I am really proud to be an Atenista. Iba kasi ung feeling that you're part of the winning community. Even though I am a mere spectator, and even if I am not really into sports like basketball, nakakatuwa lang isipin na nanalo ung school ko. Sabi nila, win or lose, it's the school we choose. But when the school wins, the statement is an expression of a triumphant and gloating joy--not bitter and defiant losing argument.

Yikee.

Ateneo! OneBigFight! Aja! ^_^

Again...Congrats Ateneo! :) Yey! :D Welcome back, La Salle! :)

Medyo totoo 'to. Mahilig nga raw kasi ako mag-blog, mag-comment (sa sariling blog entry, at sa mga blog na binibisita ko), at mag-rant (optimistic ako kadalasan, pero hindi ko maiwasan minsan na lumabas ang pagiging sarcastic ko, hindi ko mapigilan ang mag-punchline).

But I beg to disagree (Mrs. Peñaranda's tone!): 'pag nag-comment ako, more often than not, nagpapakilala naman ako. Hindi ako anonymous. Ana-nymous, pare. At hindi ako psychotic, as far as I know. At hindi ako sooooperdooooper addicted sa blogging. For your info, may mas malala pa sa akin. (Peace!) Sinasamantala ko lang na hindi pa gaanong busy sa iskul, at marami pa akong panahong mag-blog.

Saya noh?

Cge, happy blogging!
