from torture to 'mountaineer' to Kris Ablan

*waah! Nawawala yung entry ko last Saturday (you know, about the stampede and all that happened to me). Crap! It was so good pa naman. I don’t want to write it again, even if I can and I want to, kasi mag-iiba na yung emotion and yung thought. Holy crap talaga!*

Pakshet yang walking na yan! Gusto yata kaming patayin nung prof e! Last Thursday, she made us take the ‘mid-term’ exams sa track oval amidst the rain at walang dalang payong yung iba sa amin (kasali ako) tapos kahapon naman two rounds – TWO ROUNDS! – ng Acad oval! Duh! ACAD OVAL? Torture ba ‘to? Tapos she wants us done within 40 minutes! Holy crap! Ano kami, robot? Superhero? I don’t think so. Siguro kung si Louie ako hindi ako magrereklamo, pero duh! Ako ba si Louie? Hinde! I almost can’t walk home anymore! Para na akong lantang gulay!

Kanina Maan, Glaiza, Miko and I had lunch together sa KNL. The place was so amazing talaga - you would forget nasa UP Compound ka lang (lalo na nasa sa KNL ka lang pala). I forgot the name e kasi it's hard to remember (basta 'mountaineer ' ang tawag ni Miko). The ambiance is so kakaiba, and the food is great ah. Mukhang sosyal yung place pero affordable yung food. Try nyo! (Sayang nga di namin kasama si Kamille, it would have been more fun)

Moving on, I really admire this guy, Kris Ablan. He was the former USC Chair of UP Diliman (and I think he did a really good job). Now that he’s working (i don't know where, somewhere in Congress ata), he still manages to amaze me through his blog entries. I’ve been a fan of his blog entries because he writes about the most interesting things – from how much he loves Pizza (or his Dad) to the lamest ads to the current political/social events in the country. He’s so damn smart! I like the way he writes. He makes mababaw things look/sound malalim (you know what I’m saying?). Basta! I want to be like him talaga. I hope he passed the BAR exams. Kung balang araw maisip nyang sumabak sa politika, I’m with him all the way.

KRIS ABLAN FOR PRESIDENT!

"Real love is when you love someone without asking for anything in return. It's when even a passing smile can make your day, a small pat on the back can make you feel alive and the mere sound of his/her voice can move you to break out into a song inside. Real love isn't fate nor is it written in the stars. You , yourself, have to make love happen. It's a choice; a commitment that you stand up for. And even if you're uncertain if he'she loves you back, you take the risk of facing whatever pain that would come your way simply because you believe he/she is worth everything and more."
