June 25, 2009

Today is the feast day of Blessed Jose Maria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei. My dad woke me up so so so early (5am) and my brother to attend this 6am celebration at San Roque Parish near our home. I havent gone to mass in that church for quite a long time now ( we attend mass somewhere else every Sunday) but all i could remember about this parish is that it is forever being under construction, ever since when i was a kid. Lo and behold, it is still under construction.

Look at the ceiling, it still has those bits of wood hammered together to serve as a support for the construction workers as they fix the main ceiling. and those bars of steel, damn! what if during the mass all these fall on us?!?! i wonder when this parish would be completed, maybe when i already have 10 kids? kidding. :) from the outside this church looks nice, so keep up the good work guys and i hope you complete this God speed ahead!

Anyways, just as i was lining up for the communion, i noticed i was standing behind a very tall man. and this man happens to be an "old friend".. of my sister's and his name was Mr. Raffy Madarang. I felt like a midget behind him, i think i was only in his waist level, good lord that's how tall he is. (or maybe im just too short?) suddenly i remember my dad told me he lived somewhere near so that makes us, technically speaking, "neighbors". my dad also told me he often attends morning mass there with his mom, but today he was also with a tall white guy, his brother, so probably this is the guy my boss was referring to when i told him i knew Mr. Raffy. I wonder, what if my sister married this guy, instead of her husband now as my brother in law? they'd probably be brooding mini OD kids and mom and dad will be soooo proud! again, im just kidding.

after mass, i insisted we eat breakfast at Jollibee. man oh man i love their hot chocolate! i rarely drink jollibee hot chocolate since they only serve them until 11am and i dont usually eat breakfast out so i drank 2 cups and barely ate my food. it's like as if the hot chocolate was enough as my main coarse for breakfast :)

then after this, i went to school because we were supposed to have a make up class for strategic finance. However when our prof came in, she said she might have h1n1 (she should not have to come to school, man) and i had no choice but to go near her because i had to consult a lot of things regarding our thesis. i have great trust in my immune system, i chug down lots of vitamin Cs, so hopefully i wont get sick :)

Then, while i was waiting for my thesis mates, i had lunch with my guy/girl friend at Pizza Hut, UM. He's top 1 in our batch. (great brains!) He's an eco-finance guy.

I know, he looks like a total nerd. but girls go GaGa over him! dayum!

and so now, I am just at home doing this post because i'm still too lazy to study and waiting for my it-takes-10-years-adviser to check our thesis amendments, while everyone's out and about watching Transformers 2. I WISH IT'S TUESDAY NIGHT ALREADY!!!!! we have reservations on imax this coming tuesday night, 1015pm. if youll be in MOA that time, see you! :)
