joseph michael c. ang, editor

about a year ago was my grandmother's burial. last monday was a year after her passing. anyways, since i was in bulacan for her burial, i wasn't able to attend the malate ga announcing the managers and editors. i was the prose editor.

i had to quit that position for many reasons.

about 7 and a half days ago, i was on my way home from a meeting of the ces core group. my position: editor in chief, bridges newsletter. i applied for the position webmaster. i felt it was predestined.

if i'll be quitting, i doubt. though i still believe in my unqualifications for any editorial position, this time, i'm doing a mistake i've done once making me better at making it right. i do that.




currently, i'm cramming a day early for a report. God help me and my peers.

"kasi ang strength, dine-define ng mas mababa...tama ba?"

iyon ang sagot ko kanina sa tanong ni mr. franco sa mattest, kung bakit ang kono-consider ay ang mas mababang stress sa design. noong sabado ng gabi hanggang linggo ng madaling araw, hanggang sa buong araw, alam ko, nag-overreact lang ako. anong masasabi ko, natural na engineer yata ako. nag-usap kami kanina. ang mahalaga, cool lang kami.

(vague and unclear. i wonder if i'll understand what i mean at this moment when i look back in time someday.)

weapon of the day: t-square

bitbit ko ang t-square ko kanina sa school. gagamitin sana namin panukat para sa posicle stick bridge pero hindi rin namin ginawa kasi hindi kami namin napag-usapan. gumising akong iniisip na hindi maganda ang araw na ito. pero minsan, kahit alam mong di mabuti ang para sa iyo, kaya mo pa ring baguhin. kailangan mo lang patawarin ang sarili mo. (i'm speaking for general cases here.)

good thing 1 - madali ang enrollment. hindi ako naka-enroll for summer pero ok lang--tipid naman.

bad thing 1 - hindi na naman ako pumasok sa hubehor.

good thing 2 - pay-off ng paggawa ng computations sa soromla. madali ang exam.

bad thing 2 - bagsak sa report no. 1 sa matesla.

good thing 3 - pakiramdam ko, masaya si lica.

bad thing... wala na... everything bad becomes easy load.

on the weapon, nakita ako nina cara (grey wolf) at sunny (tiger sun) dala ang sandata. quite as i expected kasi kahit na "by chance" ang pagkikita namin, ako ang unang nakita nila. naglakad ako halfway pauwi bitbit ang sandata na may sense of safety. the other extended half was restful.

ngayong dilim, hiling kong pagpalain ako at makuha ko ang lakas para gawin ang report no. 2 sa matesla. i need a hundred to regain my grade and my pride. naalala ko, hindi ko natanong si sir tanhueco kung siya ang prof ko next term sa ceflume at ceflula. in a way, may kasunduan kami na patutunayan ko sa kanya kung gaano ako katalino.

lahat ng bagay ay kaya basta alam mong gamitin ang iyong sandata.

L stands for leisure, love, life, and you know who

on leisure

though a greater part of me disagrees with the term (pinili ko lang kasi sa L nagsisimula), today was the second ang last day for my relstri community service. came late, rested a lot, did moderate work under moderate sun (moderate is a subjective term), finished late. had some fun with classmates i don't spend much time with but felt damn far from the her while she was just on the next housing project.

why leisure, by the way? one word: fun.

[did you know that new door can be changed into one word?]

love

for family and friends and that special love people talk about. it makes me think of sadness, joy, and the absence of both in me.

(...and it's opposite...)

i did some backstabing and i sure wish my companions will remind me of my cawardly courage in words by monday that i may not be one of them i backstab. one category that i sure won't be at the same level with them is wisdom, or stupidity if you put it in their terms -- that being my basis for backstabbing.

life (and the end of it)

made my mind busy for on my way home from severina (just the entrance). there's this sense of loneliness related to the last bold L word. in brief, it's a loneliness among people around who don't actually want to be where they are.

another point pondered on is...are the dreams i have for others. interesting, it seems, is the posibility of being known as one who lived with unfinished dreams. then again, i'd have to die first so let's leave that with a low probability. besides, i wouldn't want others fulfilling my dreams for me.


i need to talk to someone as wise about my grammar and these things that run through my mind. the latter, maybe at least to a good listener. gotta get these out of my mind. i've got priorities piled up, and they're all related to academics.

(arun, antagal ko nang hindi nagsusulat! saklolo. i'm a lost kid and you're a cop from grammar police.)


o, and if you're wondering what about the fourth L word, she's plays a big part in all the others.

sunrise

tila matagal na rin akong hindi nakapag-update at tila hindi ko na rin maitatala ang lahat.


hindi mabuti ang pakiramdam ko sa quiz ko kanina sa soilmec at bagsak at delikado ako sa struct2. karagdagang badtrip, hindi pa kami nakakausad ni ray sa proyekto namin sa hubhor. a little gathering of strength, motivation and good luck plus prayer, i'd end up well. ang badtrip lang, hinang-hina ang loob ni lica sa status niya sa struct2. kaya kong sabihing magaan ang sarili kong problema, pero pag problema na niya, nagbabago ko. hindi ko muna iisipin ngayon. tumutugtog ang "friday i'm in love" ng the cure at gusto ko ang masayang feel ng kanta.


ang mga nagdaang araw:

* pag-quote kay loi
* pag-iwas kay mr. zalatar
* sc campaign
* pagdamay ng sarili sa problema ni odessa (ok, nantrip na naman ang winamp)
* kaunting pagka-depress sa academic status
* final fantasy seven


pero masasabi ko pa ring masaya ang araw na ito given the above statements at nakita ko pa si yama. una, nagkita kami ni menard. pangalawa, P169 ang load ko sa dalawa kong sim (at mapapatagal ko pa nang ilang araw salamat sa sun 24/7 ctu). at pangatlo, ayon kay ernie baron, 6:09am ang sunrise kanina.

/*update*/

magaling ang winamp. pagkatapos ng ilang inspiring words sa ym mula sa aking pinsan at kabarkadang si jeff, tumugtog ang "learning to breathe" ng switchfoot.
