What A Shame

Ever since last year, I am no longer interested with the whole UAAP basketball season shinanigan. Well, that's because my school has been losing. Damn. Just because Ty Tang has finally graduated, so does that mean he's the only valuable player from DLSU? And now that Chris Tiu has already left, I think the games now should be fair and square right? I'm not saying there's something fishy going on, what i meant is that since Ty and Chris are gone, players of both teams could now have a good match against each other. Or i guess im wrong and maybe ADMU is really the better team. huhuhu. Even though this is happening, I still wish the DLSU players all the luck in the world. If they would still lose in their future games, they should focus on studying instead. At least if they couldnt get any careers by playing basketball, they have something much better to fall on. :)

Speaking of basketball, yesterday I was in Xavier, watching the Alumnae League, my batch versus 90s + batch, I think, basta they look like dads na hahaha! i just stayed for an hour because i had to fulfill my Sunday obligation and when i left, my batch was leading. Chris Tiu also played this year as import and my friend told me, he's dead balls if he gets injured because he has this contract with the RP Team or PBA, im not so sure, P200k a month. wooohhhoooo!

I just realized, (this is just some random thought) basketball is like the main sport in north schools, and football or soccer, rather, in the south. Im more of a soccer fan, but I guess that's just how life is :)

Happy Birthday, Nico

Today is the 6th birthday of my first nephew, Nico, the son of my sister.

But we celebrated it yesterday, by eating dinner at my sister's place. Ate Nelda prepared the sumptuous banquet. In details, she served dinuguan, everlasting (weird, right but its something like a meatloaf type of dish), kinilaw na isda, white sauce pasta (my sister's masterpieces are pasta dishes, i guess this one's her version of carbonara?) and home-made puto to complement the dinuguan. I wasnt in the mood to eat the kinilaw, i guess im still not over my kinilaw-phobic experience. In the province when i was still a kid, i ate kinilaw and i guess the fish wasnt cleaned well and i had this allergic reaction when my butt became really itchy and i scratched it to my heart's content until it became a wound and it was really painful. besides, kinilaw with diniguan AND PASTA?!?!?! i dont think those three are a perfect tribination. hahaha! the pasta was aldente and the everlasting was so so so good! damn, diet destroyed again. Im surely going to miss ate nelda, she's leaving soon for saudi, you know, for better opportunities. She's worked there before, but of course everyone misses their families. Tomorrow she's going to have this demo in Diamond Hotel for the arab owners from saudi, i wish her all the luck in the world, NOT! kidding. My dad was joking that he called DFA to delay her passport and stuff.

Anyways, 9pm came and my sister's husband prepared the birthday cake. I was laughing so hard when the birthday candle ran out because my sister took so long in taking pictures and when the wick fell off, Nico started to cry and my brother and I were just laughing, well, at least not at Nico hahaha and so my sister took a candle and posed as if the light from the new candle actually was the birthday candle.

Then Nico opened his present and he and Iggy (his younger brother) enjoyed playing with their Tomi train set.

And they all lived happily ever after. Kidding.

Well, while waiting for my dad and my sister to end their discussion I was watching Fashion TV with my brother in their living room and it was really awkward and weird because my brother kept making such comments like "that's why i like the shows you choose, blahblahblah" you know, coz all the models were in their bikinis and see-through tops.

Death awaits

No longer excited for October, Babskidoodles cannot sleep for a week now, thinking about her thesis. She didnt think this would happen, though she admits she and her group mates are to be blamed as to why they are experiencing such dilemmas.

Yes, they admit: they should have checked first if data was available and easily accessible. They should have been warned in the first place that having bank mergers as their thesis topic is quite risky due to the availability of data. HOWEVER. thesis groups are assigned to have an adviser. TO HELP THEM. so what happened to theirs? she did help them, but what kind of help. Babskidoodles can't say right now, but surely she threatens they might get deferred. THANK YOU SO MUCH. She is now awaiting the response of an econometrics master to help solve their problem. Time's ticking, and her senses' stressed. She can't sleep well, she keeps checking her mail, hoping he'd respond asap. Their presentation for their research conference is on this saturday, and she hopes that her group will be able to present the results already, hoping to finish early like some of the groups.

Guys, please pray for her group. and her destiny. She's nearing her death bed.

:'(

It's 1:03 am and I can't sleep. To think I must be up by 8am tomorrow. or should i say 8am LATER.

I am soooo bothered. I hate it when my friend/s act all asshole-y! you know, like times when you're feeling down and you call up a friend to make you feel better but all they do is make you feel sh*ttier and it ends up you get mad at that person and now you're not in good terms with him/her. And so, I try to console with my dad. BAD IDEA. his OD mode turns on, and tells me that's why he wants me to attend formations so i could contain or NOT feel anger. Well what he told me isnt really that bad, it's just not what I was expecting at the moment. And i dont feel angry, i just feel pissed. i'm not even used to these kinds of situations. I just actually spent the last hour on my cell with my other friend and yeah he made me feel better - a bit. Until now that im idle and i thought about it again. grrrr-ness. anyways i think i need to snort on some lavender oil to calm my senses. i also need to force myself to sleep now. there are better things to be stressed about than this. oooppss was that a bad thing to say? I was thinking of worrying about thesis, though.

Today's my second eldest brother's 24th birthday today. He is drinking downstairs with his two best buds. Happy birthday, bro. :)


Also, yesterday was BJ's 20th birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
