This happened last Thursday, March 12, 2009
Actually Wednesday night I began having second thoughts of coming with them to Divisoria
But I realized I don't have many things to do that day so I still went with them
At aroun 7:40AM I woke up already
But they are coming from Cavite, and only about to leave there
So I still have to wait for them
Then they texted me to come over and meet them in front of Mini Stop near CCP
So after five minutes I started walking to that place
I walked from the Burg to Mini Stop near CCP
Under the heat of the sun
I was able to make it there just under 15 minutes
Then inside the are Me, Kuya Marvin, T-Tin and T-Tel
Then we headed to Divi
Upon arriving I started to fool around talking with a Chinese accent
Then we went to Divi Mall to gain an easier access to Tabora
Then we were in Tabora to buy some of T-Tel's creative shot pharaphernalias
But we weren't able to get anything there
Tabora is usually very crowded
But when we went there you can even do cartwheels without bumping someone
The place became like that because of the raid
That happened since January 2009
According to one of the vendors there
Then after Tabora
We decided to go to the Bodega
It is the building full of toys
Let me just call it Kid's Heaven
All kinds of toys are in there
They come in a cheaper price
But some still looks really fancy
We spent about an hour there
Then we Kuya Marvin, T-Tel and I started to get hungry
And for my case extremely thirsty
Then we went back to Divi Mall to eat
But before going back to Divi Mall
We passed by this Candy Block as I will call it
And found the candy that T-Tel and I are craving for
Then after buying the candy and having our lunch we went to 168
And the vendors starts speaking Chinese whenever we pass by them
Oh they really think that we are Chinese people :D
Then I was planning on buying to buy an MP3 player
Just an MP3 player not an MP4
Then as we are walking and checking out the items
I saw this PSP like gadget or more commonly known as MP5
A better version of MP4
It comes with a camera and games
And after I asked the vendor how much is it?
She replied 1.5K, I said not bad at all
Then I still did not buy it
Until we went to this store operated by this Chinese woman
She is really accomodating, and she also thought that we are Chinese
And she is speaking in that Chinese accent that I was doing a while ago
Then they have the same product
And only selling it for 1,150 Pesos
But it has an internal memory of just 1GB
But she offered me an 2GB SD card for only 250 Pesos
So I got the whole deal for only 1,400 Pesos
My MP5 has a capacity of 3GB already
Very great deal indeed
Then during our final minutes in 168
Kuya Marvin found this toy store
Which is selling a replica of the WWE Championship spinner belt
In the malls this costs 1000 pesos
And it is so hard to find
But then it only costs 400 pesos
So I decided to buy it
Those are the only things that I bought
But we had a really long day in Divi
And our day is far from over
Because our car had a broken fan belt
And luckily we are already in Blue Wave Petron Station at that time
But unfortunately it is already pass 5:00PM
So their service center is already closed
So T-Tin just called on our mechanic which is still going from Cavite City
So we just waited for them at Blue Wave
And I still have a lecture to pass to my group mates
I was sort of expecting that they would take over my load
Because I am stranded at the moment and unsure of what time to go home
But our leader insisted
So at around 8:00PM my Mom also arrived
And I told her that I would be going with her
And she dropped me of the Burg
I am again under time pressure
I started making my lecture at 9:30PM
And I said I could finish it by 10:30PM
But I finished my lecture at 10:40PM
And my leader told me that I am still missing something
So I revised it and finished at 11:15PM
Then after I arrived at the Burg
I went down again and bought Coke, Tuna, a bottle of Strong Ice and Pancit Canton
Then I saw Peping walking to the lobby
He also bought a Mucho
Then we both went back to 1211
We had a little drinking session of our own
It is deifinitely the best way to end a very long day that we both had

RTP#22: The Tarzan Law
Why Tarzan Law?
Simply because of the concept of Tarzan swinging through the jungle
Using the swingable objects in there
Let me just call those the ropes
And the Tarzan Law is really good because if you don't want to proceed
You can just let go of your current rope then go find a new rope to start swinging again
A friend sent me quote one time
“Hindi mo pwedeng piliin ang makakatabi mo sa bus,
ganyan din sa love”
I don't fully believe it
Because of the first rope
And I call it
The Hunt – this is a very interesting and thrilling part in the Tarzan Law. This is where you'll be asking your friends to set you up with someone or with that one or you'll start to attend the classes that you find boring because you have a hot classmate. This may take long or short there's no constant time frame for this. If it's taking too long be patient.
Once you found someone
Then it's time to jump to the second rope
Which have two choices
The Background and The Approach
The Background – this is when you start asking question to your friend who set you up, what is she like? Where is she from? Then the best place to have a knowledge on the girl is through her Friendster account.
The Approach – this is when you're going to make your move to meet the hot girl in your class, and start to know her and try to ask her out on a lunch eventually.
After knowing details or making her agree
Next would be The Move
The Move – when you're in date you want to show your better side to her and try to know her better, then here you can insert the chunks that you have researched about it would really help, especially when the awkward silence comes. Try to show as much interest as possible, because once your date doesn't really see that you are not the interested the you would really not able to go anywhere from here. This is a very crucial point in The Tarzan Law. And be careful because if you found out that she's not the way you expected her to be and you just lost interest on her, still get through the date nicely and then make a flowless drop from this rope then start all over again.
If The Move goes on pretty well
Then reach out grab the next rope
The Follow-up – if you are really having a good time spending time with her, then she somehow feels the same way towards you then this rope is going to build your relationship. The Follow-up is like the second and succeeding dates, where you can start to show your other side as well. And this is where the developing thing starts.
Things are starting to get better after this rope
The next rope would really speed up the process
So I'll just call it The Booster
The Booster – this is basically you being there for her everytime she needs someone. Whether she needs help or just someone to keep her company, you MUST be there. She will really appreciate and like you more because you are always there for her. Especially if she's really going through a hard time, this is your best chance to speed things up. And don't you ever dare to let go while you are still holding on this rope.
Then if you still want to jump to the next one
Then it's the most crucial rope of all the ropes in the Tarzan Law
The Wall – take it from the name because if you won't be able to pass through this rope you'll lose everything even though you don't want to. This is the part where you are going to tell her about how you feel for her. Do it in the most romantic way you know. Look straight to her eyes while you are telling her everything. You only have one shot at this, better not blew it or else it's over.
The much awaited part is the next one
The Difference Maker – this is what she's going to say after you have said how you feel for her. If she replies in a positive way, then congratulations dude, you may have just got her. And if she replies in a not so good way, then don't lose hope try to talk her out of it. If there's nothing you can do about it and she doesn't really want it, try to wait for her. And remember you're still recovering from the hard bump on The Wall so if you're going to wait just make sure that you will do everything to hold on that rope and not . And if you cannot take it anymore, just drop off it. Maybe it's not really meant to be.
If you're still surving then just jump to the next rope
Knowing that you both have mutual feelings for one another
This time there's two ropes to choose from
The Question and The Fish
The Attack – here you are going to ask her if you can officialy court her. It's up to you on how and when are you going to do it. This is very risky there's also several responses that you can hear from her. One is “Yes”, two is “No”, three is “Not now”, four is “I'm not ready”, etc. If you have to wait again just hold on tight don't let go.
And if you don't want to take the huge leap and risk it all
Let me lead you to your next rope
The Fish – from what it's called it is basically just going through the flow. Let the current guide you to her. This might really take long, but most probably you don't need to court her after this. Just go through this like you did in The Booster. Then you may make her develop her feelings for you and make her fall in love in you.
Then let's say you are now a couple
Then it's the end of the Tarzan Law
Tarzan is finally home with Jane
Let me give you a recap of my Tarzan Law:
The Hunt
The Background/The Approach
The Move
The Follow-up
The Booster
The Wall
The Difference Maker
The Question/The Fish
Of course I cannot guarantee you a 100% success in the Tarzan Law
Let me list down reasons why:
1.You let go of your rope
2.She blocked you while you're jumping to another rope which caused you to fall
3.There's no 3rd reason
Well you see mutual feelings are very important in the Tarzan Law
And if she's not feeling the same way then you may experience the 2nd reason that I gave
Or if you don't feel the same way that she feels for you then just put the 1st reason into action
And don't dare to skip a single rope in going to another one. I'm sure it won't do you any good.
And the time frame for the Tarzan Law is not constant, it may or may not take a long time for you to reach the end. It really depends on how the girl would respond.
And again for the very last time, if she asks you to wait, don't let go no matter what. Just be patient and you'll be with her.

EP#30: Just Chillin'
This happened tonight March 11,2009
A long day indeed
After my defense and arriving at the Burg
I felt so tired and already looking for rest
But after I took a shower
I felt reenrgized so I prepared my drink
Then as I am pouring my red horse into my tumbler
Peping arrived
Then he was drinking Pale Pilsen in can
We including Rovin who is just watcing TV
Began talking about all things that's happening
Just exchanging stories
It felt great
Having a semi-serious talk with them
It's really one of those things that I really like about staying here at the Burg
I mean you can definitely talk to these about anything
From the how's school to the crushes and almost everyhting almost under the sun
In fact I am sort of tipsy right now
But I really had a long day
But it ended in a good note
So still it's a very awesome day for me
Goonight.. :D

EP#29: One Shot
This is about our Machine Problem [MP] defense
Well, I was really not able to contribute anything in our program
But I really asked for something to do
But I was not given any task
But that's fine, completely fine
But the major consequence is that
I know nothing in our program
So here we are defense day
The biggest day of the term
Even bigger than finals day
I still haven't looked at our program
I have no idea how it is going to flow
Then at 3:00PM we [my group mates] met at the library
To learn about our program
But too bad our master programmer isn't there
And he arrived at 4:15PM
And our defense will be starting around 4:30PM – 5:00PM
So we just had a brief discussion about it
Then when we left the library
All we did is try to relax
And get ready for our defense
I can say half our group
Which includes me
Have a very little knowledge on our MP
Just like having one bullet in a gun
You'll be very lucky when you'll be asked the question
That we have discussed the answer earlier
Prelude to our MP
Part of our relaxation is doing card tricks
Then we are two groups left waiting for our turn
I know based on the arrangement we are the last to go
But because of this incident that happened to the other group
We became the second to the last group to defend
Here is what happened to them
Because of the card tricks
After one of them performed a trick
Every single one of them went loud
My professor overheared it
Then said to them “Yari kayo sa akin mamaya”
We on the other hand just finished fooling around
Then sat to rest for a while
We had a really lucky break there
Then we started joking “GG na kayo mga sir”
Because we all know at that time that our professor won't go easy on them
Then our group were called to defend already
Upon hearing from the other groups who just finished
Our professor is very strict and serious during the defense
Adding more due to what happened earlier to the other group
We were somehow scared of what is going to happen
Our defense started after our professor had her CR break
Then my group mate Darren started to read the documentation
Nikka followed him after he read the first part
Then we found out that we misunderstood the 2nd problem
Which led our professor to focus in the first problem only
Then she began to ask question to Eliana
She was not able to answer that clearly
So our professor asked Karl [he is the master programmer]
Then he was able to explain it very well
Then when she finished dealing with Karl
She the asked Katsu something
And what she asked is what we were not able to discuss
So Katsu passed, then she called me
I also got no idea how to answer the question
So I said to myself I only have one shot
Then I missed, but our professor did not get mad
Because we were not able to answer her questions
And after 5 minutes our defense ended
We were the fastest group to finish
And I think we still have a great chance to get a good grade
I am not really used in doing nothing for our program
In fact in my first defense
I made 70% of our program – including the revision, we were 2 in the group
In the second defense
I made 40% of our program – we were 3 in the group
But because of our professor in our 116 lecture
We really had a hard time understanding the lessons
And not able to help in programming
But I really got to give a huge thank you to Karl
And also to my groupmates
Well defense is over
And in a week this term is history
I know I am doing pretty well except for my Math class
I feel bad that I gave up on that subject too early
I took a risk on that subject
But it didn't pay off
No regrets. Just lessons learned.

EP#28: A Blog Effect
A Blog Effect
I just want to share how blogging affected me in one way
Earlier today [March 9, 2009] I had a one on one recitation with my professor
And she let me discuss my favorite topic in her subject
I chose the Greek Point of View: Self-knowledge, “Know Thyself”
I chose this topic because I know it is easy for me to discuss it
And I really had an easy time reciting
And after my recitation
My professor said to me that
“It is good that you can express your self very well in English”
“I really want to talk to you more, maybe in some recitations in the future”
How awesome am I?
I even got my professor saying that to me
But I think a key to my English proficiency is blogging
Well I don't really mind about my grammar
When I am writing a blog entry
But regularly composing a blog entry
And I'm using the English language
In 95% of my blog entries
And that recitation is like
Just me writing a blog entry
Just telling a story about my life
About things from my point of view
That's why I was able to get a comment like that from my professor
As usual I don't use very difficult words
I really didn't expected to develop this as I write things
I am also getting better in speaking
Well things like that happens to me
Because of one reason
And that's simply because I am awesome..
Oh wait, not just awesome.. I am VERY AWESOME!:D

RTP#21: Diamond Post
This is my 75th blog entry
And funny thing is I haven't shared why am I blogging
So I would discuss everything in this post
And if you are wondering
What are those RTP, RP, LP, PP and EP before each title
I would be discussing those too
Let me start on why am I blogging?
The very first reason why I started blogging
Is to impress the girls
Yes, that's right
And it worked out pretty well
Because here I was somehow able to impress Che
In fact my first blog entry PP#1: Cellphone
Is dedicated to her
And PP#2: 143-So Much is also for her
Then after we broke up
For about 5 months my blog site is passive
Then I resumed blogging November 2008
I got inspired by Kuya Didoy's blog
Then that really started everything once again
This time I am not writing to impress
I am writing just to express myself
My thoughts, my feelings and my experiences
Like a high-tech journal
And then after watching the Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Another reason came to my mind
And that is to write everything while it's fresh
Because eventually I will forget about it
Just like my first club experience
I know I wrote about it but I think I lost it
Even though I can still write about it right now
It is not as detailed as the other one
In fact when I'm viewing my blog archive
There's some posts that I already forgot what is about
And it feels good that I am able to go back to those stories
Then next part is the codes before the title
Random Thought Post (RTP) – is about the random things that suddenly pops into my mind
Review Post (RP) – is about the movie reviews and tv shows review and everything that I evaluated
Experience Post (EP) – these posts is about the things that experienced whether it's a problem, special occasion or anything that is happening to me
Poem Post (PP) – these are the poems that I wrote, and would remain poems and not turned in to songs
Lyric Post (LP) – these are the song lyrics that I composed, it's only lyrics it does not have any real melody yet
I made these codes because I find it cool
Like when I am going to tell someone about one of my posts
I would say it like this
“According to RTP#5...” awesome isn't it? :D
I got the idea from The Bro Code from Barney Stinson
I remember he once said
“According to article #32 [I think] of the Bro Code, it is stated...”
That's where I got the whole categorizing idea
I really enjoy blogging it is pretty obvious how much I enjoy it
Now I'm in Post # 75 and who knows
Someday I am writing about Post #750 already
As my mind comes up with more interesting stuffs
And as I deal with life
And as long as I can find something to write about
There is going to be a new entry in my blog site
And funny thing is I haven't shared why am I blogging
So I would discuss everything in this post
And if you are wondering
What are those RTP, RP, LP, PP and EP before each title
I would be discussing those too
Let me start on why am I blogging?
The very first reason why I started blogging
Is to impress the girls
Yes, that's right
And it worked out pretty well
Because here I was somehow able to impress Che
In fact my first blog entry PP#1: Cellphone
Is dedicated to her
And PP#2: 143-So Much is also for her
Then after we broke up
For about 5 months my blog site is passive
Then I resumed blogging November 2008
I got inspired by Kuya Didoy's blog
Then that really started everything once again
This time I am not writing to impress
I am writing just to express myself
My thoughts, my feelings and my experiences
Like a high-tech journal
And then after watching the Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Another reason came to my mind
And that is to write everything while it's fresh
Because eventually I will forget about it
Just like my first club experience
I know I wrote about it but I think I lost it
Even though I can still write about it right now
It is not as detailed as the other one
In fact when I'm viewing my blog archive
There's some posts that I already forgot what is about
And it feels good that I am able to go back to those stories
Then next part is the codes before the title
Random Thought Post (RTP) – is about the random things that suddenly pops into my mind
Review Post (RP) – is about the movie reviews and tv shows review and everything that I evaluated
Experience Post (EP) – these posts is about the things that experienced whether it's a problem, special occasion or anything that is happening to me
Poem Post (PP) – these are the poems that I wrote, and would remain poems and not turned in to songs
Lyric Post (LP) – these are the song lyrics that I composed, it's only lyrics it does not have any real melody yet
I made these codes because I find it cool
Like when I am going to tell someone about one of my posts
I would say it like this
“According to RTP#5...” awesome isn't it? :D

EP#27: Bonding Bonding
This happened last March 7, 2009
@ Miel's first birthday in Villa Theresa
Well of course all of us would probably be there
After eating all of us gathered in one table
And began planning on our presentation
Of our grandparents
Then for about an hour
We all left the place
Then decided to go to Island Cove
But we stopped at Alah's place for a while
We had dinner there
Then at around 9:00PM I think
We are already in Island Cove
Then we sang at Island Songs
Had a little drink
A pitcher of frozen margarita
Plus a bottle/can of beer for some
Including me of course :D
Of course being an awesome singer
I scored the highest among all of us :D
You know everyone is just having fun
Not talking about their problems
I myself wanted to have a serious talk with Alah
But I decided not to and just let us
Have a good time that night
Part 2 – At Last The Serious Talk
This happened just about a minute ago
We went to Alah's place to get something
Then the much awaited talk between us happened
From the very moment we sat
I asked him about what's the deal between them
I ain't going to spill the details
Just got to respect the privacy
And I think at some point
He just did the right thing
It is pretty much what happened between me and Che
Even though we can push through it
It is not the right thing to do
And I almost heard the same things that Che said to me
I know how bad it hurts
But after looking in the bright side
I saw and appreciated what she did
It was the right thing
And I know it's hard
But sometimes you just have to deal with it

RTP#20: Is Anything Possible?
Just a thought that came to mind
While I was on a ride back to the Burg
Stuck in a little traffic
I began thinking of random things that I usually do
Well I thought of these
Anything is possible
Impossible is only in the state of mind
Well I myself got the never say die attitude
I mean in basketball game
Until there's time there's a chance to win
But let's be real
Let's say your team is trailing 20 points
And you only got one minute left in the game
It would be a miracle
If your team is going to win
Not convincing enough?
Here's what I really thought that made me realize
That not anything is possible
And if you think that anything is possible
Prove it by doing a this
Count the raindrops while it's raining

RTP#19: Is It Good Enough?
This is about my professor handing out awards
For the best reflection paper in the class
I really want to get an award in this
Not expecting to have the first prize though
Just to have my paper named one of the best is good enough
But question is is my paper good enough to be one of the best?
I really don't know
First, is even though I've got good thoughts
The grammatical errors really do hurt me a lot
And in a graded paper it is highly considered
So I don't know how is my grammar in my paper
I did my paper like I'm just blogging
Just like telling an experience
That's how I did it
So I am not so sure if it is good enough
But I really want an award
My cliche is not that strong either
If only she told us that there would be awards
I would've done a better paper
I can say that I have a good paper
Because I've just read it
I followed instructions
Although being my typical self
One element that I'm really missing
Is having wide range of words
As I've said earlier
I made my paper just like a blog post
I made it very easy reading
That even a high-school student could understand it clearly
I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing
And just imagine
I've got nominated for best-actor in that class
And if I'm going to and hopefully receive an award for my paper
How awesome am I? :D

RTP#18: In Your Dreams
This is about the dreams that we are having when we are asleep
Sometimes we experience having a lot of dreams
Sometimes only one but very long one
And the thing is
We cannot really remember these dreams
That we are having every night
Although there are dreams that are remarkable
Just like the following
There are those dreams
That makes us stay in bed longer
And makes us wish that the alarm clock would not ring yet
And when we wake up it will make you close your eyes again
And continue dreaming
There are those dreams
That would wake us up
And make us stay up all night
Whether it's a nightmare, something interesting or just something disturbing
It might scare us or it may elate us
Then we're just up all night
Thinking of it
There are those dreams
That we try to recall in the morning
But we couldn't no matter how hard we try
There are those dreams
That are adventure like
Like we are in a movie or a game
And would make us wonder
Why we had a dream like that
There are those dreams
That would make us smile
That would make us cry
That would make us think
That would make us sleep more
That would make us sleepless
That would make us sweat
That would make us laugh
But no matter what your dream is
It's just a dream
And eventually you'll be back to reality :D

RTP#17: Judgement of Paris (Best Actor Nominee)
This is about the high-school like play that we did
Because we were required to use costumes and props
We were divided in to three groups
So my group mates are mixed
There are Frosh, batch mates and higher years
The Frosh students were really excited
They became our leaders
They organized the whole play
The I was assigned to play the role of Zeus
I thought I only got a few things to say in the play
But it turned out that I've got the most lines in the play
Then here we are the day of presentation
We got the best costume and props obviously
With just a look you would really agree
My group mates even bought linens from Divisoria
Just for our costumes
Then enough for the costumes
We are the last group to present
And I just took a look on my lines
And didn't bother to memorize it
I really changed the script as the play happens
Scene 1: Entrance and wedding
I am supposed to say a line here
“Oh ano pa ang hinihintay natin? Let's Party”
And I told my group mate that I wont be able to deliver it well
So they assigned that line to another person
And it turned out that I could have done a much better job than her :D
Scene 1 should suppose to end when I took the apple
From the three goddesses Athena, Hera and Aphrodite
I was expecting a short cut to change the setting for scene 2
But it did not happen
Scene 2: The Decision of Zeus
Original Plot: Zeus is alone thinking who should get the apple
And would sit then clap three times to call on Hermes
And instruct him to give the apple to Paris
And he would decide who to give it to
What happened: I was not alone, still with all the characters from scene 1
I changed the thinking that is supposed to be just standing and walking around
I have the three goddesses with me at that time
Here starts my revisions to the play
I pointed and called their name
“Athena.. Aphrodite.. Hera.. nakapagdesisyon na ako at wala akong napili sa inyo”
Then I clapped three times here's Hermes standing in front of me
“Hermes, ibigay mo ito kay Paris at sabihin mo ang kailangan niyang malaman”
Then my role is done
I wont discuss scene 3 anymore
But if you're wondering who got the apple? Aphrodite, because he offered Paris
The prettiest woman in the world
I thought my acting is really bad
Because I don't really like it
I had short pauses when I am thinking for my next line
But thank God I was able to think fast
Then here comes Friday
The day of the awarding and giving of grades
The Nominees for best actress are
Two guys which played the role of a girl (from group 1 and group 2)
And the three goddesses from our group
Winner: The guy from group 2
Then the Nominees for best actor are
I don't really remember how many nominees came from the two groups
But in our group my professor said
“And from the third group Zeus as Benj”
That's me! That's me! :D
I was shocked and I bet my classmates are also
Because we are all expecting Paris' name would come out
But it did after I was nominated
Winner: Sherwin as Paris from our group
I find it really hilarious because I thought I really messed up out there
But it turned out that I was even nominated for best actor :D
I don't know how did I do it
But never did I expected some recognition due to my acting
Because I never do acting
And why would I?
I did not even stated that in my Golden Post
As part of my 50:50 dream come trues
And when we were able to watch the Oscars
I always tell T-Tel
“Di ako makakapunta diyan, wala akong balak, Grammy's na lang” :D
And I always labeled myself as a writer only
In the movie or tv show I can take part as the script writer
And never did it hit me to be the actor
But now I am considering it :D
Now only one thing stands in my way to become a triple threat
And that is dancing who knows maybe I can be a triple threat
Then I'll say hello to ABS-CBN :D (just kidding) :D

PP#4: Saglit
Written: Thursday, February 26, 2009
By: Benj Medina III
Isang umaga sa inyong iskwela
Tayo'y muling nagkita
Ngunit di nagkausap
Dahil ika'y sobrang abala sa iyong ginagawa
Ngunit may isang pagkakataon
Tayo ang naging gitna ng atensyon
At gusto nilang ika'y aking abutan ng bulaklak
Noong una ay di makapaniwala
Walang nagawa kung hindi tumawa
Habang ikaw ay kaharap ko
Ngunit aking ibinigay ang kanilang gusto
At sa loob ng isang minuto
Tayo'y muling nagkangitian
Ito'y di ko makakalimutan
Nangyari na ang aking inaasam
At iyon ang muli kang makita
At ika'y makasama kahit saglit lang
Oh anong saya
Muling napapangiti tuwing naaalala
Ang mga nangyari kaninang umaga
Sa sandali na tayo'y nagkasama

EP#26: VIP Bar Launch Event @ SSC
Well this is about the event where Joyce invited me to come
And all that I have to do in this event is to eat according to her
And dress just like I'm going to a bar
I had 2 Problems
First and the bigger problem is my black maong pants is missing
I can't find it anywhere when I was in Cavite
Then when I arrived at the Burg
I was lucky enough to find it here
Then second problem is the event is happening at 7:30AM – 9:00AM
So I have to get up early to make it there
But I got motivated to wake up
By the fact that she would also be there
So I was able to wake up at 5:45AM
But I am shaking feeling very cold
So I was able to get up at 6:00AM
I am not feeling very well
My energy level is lower than usual
But nothing could ever stand in my way
So I took a bath
And finished dressing up at 7:20AM
Just enough to get some rest before leaving
I left the Burg five minutes after
Then another problem came
How am I going to enter St.Scho?
Bigger problem than my pants
So I arrived at the gate 1 of St.Scho
And texted Joyce
But Jayce came and we went to the function room together
Something funny happened on our way to the room
It is when we reached second floor
And we were about to enter
Some sort of org-office like room
I hesitated to follow
I thought it is not the way to the function room
So I said to Jayce
I am going to text Joyce instead
So I would know how to get there, silly me :D
Then here we are outside the function room
I was the first guest in there
I looked inside to find out what's happening
Then they saw me looking
Then started greeting me
After a few minutes
Another guest came but wearing a St.Scho uniform
Then after a few more minutes a group of students came also
But I am the only guy at the moment
I am starting to feel a little weird about it
Then here comes their professor
The program is going to begin at 8:00AM
Their professor arrived at 7:45AM
So she also waited for quite some time
And just 5 minutes after 8:00AM
They started it with an opening prayer
Then followed by the cutting of the ribbon
Then we all went inside
I stayed at the table alone
Because Joyce is still busy
But after the opening remarks
Arvin Jayce's boyfriend and another unknown guy arrived
Somehow relieved that I am not the only guy
Then Joyce just checked on me
On how am I doing
Then she reintroduced me to her friends
That I was able to meet last year at MOA
Yes I remember them but not their names
I am really not good in remembering names
But I had a chat with them for a while
Then I went back to my table
Then Joyce told me to come over to them
Which is what I am thinking to do
They are in the other side of the room
So I went there
Then there's this bouquet
That they teased me to give to Maan
Well we're in front of everyone
I am hesitating at first
But I don't want to disappoint them
So I did it
I gave Maan the bouquet
Then they took a picture of us
While doing it
Whew.. Normally, I would never gonna do that
*We (Maan and I) were not able to get a chance to talk
But it's okay :D
Also as part of the opening of the program
There's a flaring presentation
By a couple of HRM student's from St.Scho
The event finished at 9:00AM
Then I helped with the cleaning
And we finished before 10:00AM I think
Then we went to Joyce's dorm
To stock the things they have
Then there Joyce talked to me
About what happened to them yesterday
When She and Alah met at Glorietta
She said they were good
They're friends
And there's one thing that Alah told Joyce
That involves me
And it is “Maging boyfriend mo na ang lahat,
wag lang ang pinsan ko (which is ME)”
After it I was really laughing about it
I wonder why? :D
Then T-Tin texted me
That they will go to the Burg
To get my laundry
And at around 10:30AM
Arvin and I were about to leave St.Scho
But we were told to go back
So we went back
Then before 11:00AM
We all left St.Scho
And went to Prov
But because I still need to fix my things
I was not be able to go with them to Prov
But I said that I'll just follow them after
Then I fixed my things
At around 11:45AM
I was able to hand over my things to Kuya Marvin and T-Tin
Then I went back up to the Burg
To take a little rest
But again that little rest went a little longer
And from 12:20PM that I was supposed to go down
I woke up at 12:55PM
And I was not able to follow them at Prov
Then for the last part
My evaluation on their event
As one of their guest
If they are really going to start the program at 8:00AM
Then they're just on time
Then food is good
The sounds are not loud enough
The flaring is good
Drinks are also good
And the girls in the event are very nice
If I am going to grade them
Let's say I'll give 95% out of a 100%
Of course all the effort and hard work
That they put to make that event possible
Should be highly considered
Good job!!! :D
And all that I have to do in this event is to eat according to her
And dress just like I'm going to a bar
I had 2 Problems
First and the bigger problem is my black maong pants is missing
I can't find it anywhere when I was in Cavite
Then when I arrived at the Burg
I was lucky enough to find it here
Then second problem is the event is happening at 7:30AM – 9:00AM
So I have to get up early to make it there
But I got motivated to wake up
By the fact that she would also be there
So I was able to wake up at 5:45AM
But I am shaking feeling very cold
So I was able to get up at 6:00AM
I am not feeling very well
My energy level is lower than usual
But nothing could ever stand in my way
So I took a bath
And finished dressing up at 7:20AM
Just enough to get some rest before leaving
I left the Burg five minutes after
Then another problem came
How am I going to enter St.Scho?
Bigger problem than my pants
So I arrived at the gate 1 of St.Scho
And texted Joyce
But Jayce came and we went to the function room together
Something funny happened on our way to the room
It is when we reached second floor
And we were about to enter
Some sort of org-office like room
I hesitated to follow
I thought it is not the way to the function room
So I said to Jayce
I am going to text Joyce instead
So I would know how to get there, silly me :D
Then here we are outside the function room
I was the first guest in there
I looked inside to find out what's happening
Then they saw me looking
Then started greeting me
After a few minutes
Another guest came but wearing a St.Scho uniform
Then after a few more minutes a group of students came also
But I am the only guy at the moment
I am starting to feel a little weird about it
Then here comes their professor
The program is going to begin at 8:00AM
Their professor arrived at 7:45AM
So she also waited for quite some time
And just 5 minutes after 8:00AM
They started it with an opening prayer
Then followed by the cutting of the ribbon
Then we all went inside
I stayed at the table alone
Because Joyce is still busy
But after the opening remarks
Arvin Jayce's boyfriend and another unknown guy arrived
Somehow relieved that I am not the only guy
Then Joyce just checked on me
On how am I doing
Then she reintroduced me to her friends
That I was able to meet last year at MOA
Yes I remember them but not their names
I am really not good in remembering names
But I had a chat with them for a while
Then I went back to my table
Then Joyce told me to come over to them
Which is what I am thinking to do
They are in the other side of the room
So I went there
Then there's this bouquet
That they teased me to give to Maan
Well we're in front of everyone
I am hesitating at first
But I don't want to disappoint them
So I did it
I gave Maan the bouquet
Then they took a picture of us
While doing it
Whew.. Normally, I would never gonna do that
*We (Maan and I) were not able to get a chance to talk
But it's okay :D
Also as part of the opening of the program
There's a flaring presentation
By a couple of HRM student's from St.Scho
The event finished at 9:00AM
Then I helped with the cleaning
And we finished before 10:00AM I think
Then we went to Joyce's dorm
To stock the things they have
Then there Joyce talked to me
About what happened to them yesterday
When She and Alah met at Glorietta
She said they were good
They're friends
And there's one thing that Alah told Joyce
That involves me
And it is “Maging boyfriend mo na ang lahat,
wag lang ang pinsan ko (which is ME)”
After it I was really laughing about it
I wonder why? :D
Then T-Tin texted me
That they will go to the Burg
To get my laundry
And at around 10:30AM
Arvin and I were about to leave St.Scho
But we were told to go back
So we went back
Then before 11:00AM
We all left St.Scho
And went to Prov
But because I still need to fix my things
I was not be able to go with them to Prov
But I said that I'll just follow them after
Then I fixed my things
At around 11:45AM
I was able to hand over my things to Kuya Marvin and T-Tin
Then I went back up to the Burg
To take a little rest
But again that little rest went a little longer
And from 12:20PM that I was supposed to go down
I woke up at 12:55PM
And I was not able to follow them at Prov
Then for the last part
My evaluation on their event
As one of their guest
If they are really going to start the program at 8:00AM
Then they're just on time
Then food is good
The sounds are not loud enough
The flaring is good

Good job!!! :D

RTP#16: Just Like A Hot Coffee
This is something that came to my mind
Well I am thinking of how to describe pain after a break-up
And moving on
Yes I came up with this
It's just like a hot coffee
I was able to come up with this
Because I've got a coffee right now
And I usually do not drink coffee during mornings
Here's the thing
A hot coffee would remain hot no matter how hard you blow it
But as time pass by it will cool down eventually
Just like when you're hurt
No matter what you do to cover up the pain
It's still there
And time is the best medicine for it
In a matter of time
The pain would eventually pass out
And you're good to go
:D

RP#9: How I Met Your Mother (1st - 2nd Season Review)
Okay, the last tv show marathon that I did is about 2 months ago I think
And it is the best show I've ever since it is Friends
With Joey, Ross, Chandler, Phoebe, Rachel and Monica
Then when I am still watching Friends via dvd
Sometimes when I'm just channel scanning
I've eventually found this show which has a very similar setting
Just pretty much like Friends have
The apartment scene is what I usually got into
So I began to hate this show
Because I thought it is imitating Friends
Then when my sister told me
“May bago ka ng idol, walang sinabi si Joey (from Friends) dito”
I got intigued
I asked what is the title of the show
And it is called How I Met Your Mother
So one Tuesday noon Me and T-Tel had lunch
Then we went to Harisson Plaza (HP) to buy dvds
Then I thought of buying this tv show's season dvds
Then at the first store we were not able to find it there
I am planning to buy all the available seasons
Which are from season 1 to season 4
So T-Tel said “naku mukhang mahihirapan tayo dito”
Then the second store
We asked where are the series?
Then she (the vendor) led us to them
Then guess what I found
How I Met Your Mother
Seasons 1 – 4
Just right in front of the rack
Then back in the Burg I started watching season 1
Damn this show is good
Setting wise yes very similar to friends
But the story and characters
Hmmm.. Not that much
Here are the characters
Ted – the one who's looking for the right girl
which he's going to spend his whole life with
Robin (she's HOT!!) – the girl to whom fell in love at first
sight with, who later became his girlfriend
Marshall and Lily – Ted's college friends who just got engaged
after 9 years of being together
Barney – he's like Joey Tribbiani (from Friends) the ladies' man
but he's smart and rich and no one even knows what his job is
Well now let me tell you how the story flows
Marshall and Lily just got engaged and here's Ted who realized he himself should start settling down with his soulmate which he still does not know. Then with a little help from Barney he was able to meet Robin (she's HOT!!) who is a journalist from Canada who just moved in to New York, and on their first date Ted said that he's inlove with her (Robin) then she was shocked then it did not go any further than that for both of them, they became friends until the end of season 1.
Well the show is about Ted telling his two children in the year 2030 about the story how he met their mother. His story started from year 2005 I think or 2006. Just imagine how long this one is going to be, I just finished season 2 and they are only in year 2007.
I finished 18 out of 22 episodes of season 1 last Tuesday 02/17/09
Then finished the final four episodes last night 02/18/09
Then I began and finished season 2 today 02/19/09
That's how hooked up I am to this show
Let me tell you how I did this marathon
I started watching at about noontime where I prepared my lunch
That was around 12:00PM
Then watched until 2:30PM
Where I took a shower
Then bought a Coke and Pancit Canton at Maldita's
Located just at the lobby of the Burg
Then back to unit 1211
And watching again
Until 7:30PM where I prepared dinner
Then ate dinner while watching again
I finished season 2 in 8:43PM
So that gives me 8 hours and 43 minutes
For me to finish a tv show season which has 22 episodes
And I am planning to start watching the 3rd season after writing this post, I can't wait so I am just going to end this already
I'm telling you this show is truly just like Barney Stinson says “legend.. wait for it.. dary!!”
And it is the best show I've ever since it is Friends

LP#7: Anything
Written by: Benj Medina III
I know how hard it is
I know how bad it feels
I completely understand
It might take a long time
Especially it is your first time
I don't know what he did
But never I would do that to you
I'll never gonna hurt you
Everyday I'll love you more
Coz you are more than I ever asked for
I wont let you go
In my dreams it's you I see
And if you're going to look in my mind
You'll be like looking in a mirror
Coz it's you that you'll see inside it
It's been a while since I last saw you
But it's everyday that I want to be with you
Never thought about looking for someone else
Coz no matter how long it takes
I am willing to wait
I only went serious in this thing once
And she even made a fool out of me
Did everything for her
Love her more than she loved me
But I found myself replaced by him
I know what's going on
But I played the fool
So I could still be with her
Just so you know
That I'm willing to get hurt
If that's what it takes to be with you
I'm going to bear with all the pain
And it will be okay
Coz I got you
I know how hard it is
I know how bad it feels
I completely understand
It might take a long time
Especially it is your first time
I don't know what he did
But never I would do that to you
I'll never gonna hurt you

LP#6: Miss You
Written: Tuesday; February 24, 2009
By: Benj Medina III
Another song for her
Third song that I made for her
If she'll be able to read this
Hope she'll like it
You know who you are :D
It's been weeks
But nothing changed
Still, you're always on my mind
Remembering little memories that we had
Wishing to see you soon
Cause I miss you a lot
I miss your smile
I miss your voice
I cherish every moment
Every minute
Every second
That I'm with you
You're not more than half inch away from me
I almost hear you breath
Can't stop looking at you
And you just smile whenever you catch me staring
And one time
I just want to kiss you
But I can't because it's not right to
I'm crazy about you
Hope to be with you again
I can't help but smile
Every time I remember you
You're always in my dream
And I don't want to wake up
Because now it's only in my dream
Where I see and be with you
And when this dream becomes real
Then I'll always be with you
And I won't do anything that's gonna hurt you
I'll never make you cry
I'll always make you smile
And I'll love you more than you'll ever love me

RTP#14: What If?
This about what I realized about our country's history
Well we all know that Americans wanted to make the Philippines as part of the USA
And our heroes fought for our freedom
I realized during that time it's a good thing
We were set free from the colonists
But now USA is suffering from an economic crisis
And all of us our waiting for it to be fixed
Let's take this from the bright side that I saw
If our heroes did not fought for our freedom
And we belong to the USA right now
We are definitely living in a better country
Well we are known for our natural resources
And just imagine if we are under the American government
And they would be able to use our natural resources better
Maybe the Philippines would be 5 times better than today
Or maybe not

RTP#13: Crap Talk
Crap Talk - are the things that comes in a middle of a conversation, a lecture or speeches that are not related to the topic and is taking a long time to finish.
Sample sentence: Oh no!!! She's doing the crap talk again.
Well I always experience this in one of my professors she do her teaching like this
20% - Lessons
80% - Crap Talk
And we are meeting 3 times a week 1 and a half hour every meeting
Imagine that almost 3 and a half hours of Crap Talks
Well it depends on who is doing the crap talk
If she's my date or some pretty or hot girl
Then I would still listen
But if not I would still pretend that I am listening
And if I'm in class
I'll start to draw or write poems

RTP#12: True Love Waits
This is the seminar that my Mom attended
And after hearing Mass which we did not understand anything
Because of the weak sound system
We gathered and read the Readings for today
Then after it I thought we are going to eat already
But my Mom opened to us the seminar that she had
Which is about True Love Waits
Very interesting topic
My Mom have this handout
Which contains about it
Then she asked me to read the first part
The title is Pull of Pornography
(I'll post a detailed version about this later)
Basically it is about how porn take effect in one's life
But we got stuck in this topic for about an hour
I'm telling you
The last person you want to talk about porn is your parents
Because it is really awkward to tell them about your opinions
Well after it she talked about purity
Immature and Mature relationship
Pretty much like conducting a seminar
It took almost 2 and a half hours to finish
After an hour and a half
I'm starting to get very uncomfortable
Getting hungry and maybe because of the topic
But then I realized that I am really ready for a serious or mature relationship
It's not everyday that I can talk
To my Mom about this
So I did let go of some of my thoughts
Regarding her topic
It's good to do family talks like this
Not really this topic in particular
But sort of an open forum
That would really help
The family a lot
And after hearing Mass which we did not understand anything
Because of the weak sound system
We gathered and read the Readings for today
Then after it I thought we are going to eat already
But my Mom opened to us the seminar that she had
Which is about True Love Waits
Very interesting topic
My Mom have this handout
Which contains about it
Then she asked me to read the first part
The title is Pull of Pornography
(I'll post a detailed version about this later)
Basically it is about how porn take effect in one's life
But we got stuck in this topic for about an hour
I'm telling you
The last person you want to talk about porn is your parents
Because it is really awkward to tell them about your opinions
Well after it she talked about purity
Immature and Mature relationship
Pretty much like conducting a seminar
It took almost 2 and a half hours to finish
After an hour and a half
I'm starting to get very uncomfortable
Getting hungry and maybe because of the topic
But then I realized that I am really ready for a serious or mature relationship
It's not everyday that I can talk
To my Mom about this
So I did let go of some of my thoughts
Regarding her topic
It's good to do family talks like this
Not really this topic in particular
But sort of an open forum
That would really help
The family a lot

EP#25: Late Night Out w/ the Joes
This is about what happened last Friday Feb 13 '09
Yes everybody it's Friday d 13th
Well this has nothing to do about it
Let me start telling you about what happened that night
I texted Martin
And asked if he's going to the Mutya ng San Sebastian
Which is going to happen that night
No I am not interested on the event itself
I am more excited of reuniting with them the Joes
Well Joe/Dyo is how we call each other in our class
When we were in 4th year
Just like dude and bro
But instead we used joe/dyo
Then he picked me up at around 8:30PM
Then we (Me, Martin and Rap) went to Dodi's/Guiller's house
Then to Marc's house
Then straight to our old-school BASTE!!!
We are in Martin's car
And it has customized sound system
So bumabayo talaga yung sounds namin
And we entered Baste loudly
As I can remember Move Shake Drop is the song playing
Then we went around the school and looked for a parking space
Then when we went down the car
And went to the gym
And then there's D-R
We just stood right there in front of the gym
Went to the canteen
Then back to the gym
You know just talking and hanging out
Then at around 10:30PM
Show's over
So we left Baste and went to Rasta
Just beside Baste
Then there we drank a mixed drink
And at around 12:30AM
I decided to leave
And go home
So my would not catch me so red
I am not drunk
I was able to go home safely
All by myself
Well I definitely had fun that night
And like I told them
If my Mom's not around I'll be with them till the end
Just being with the "Tropang Joe" again
Feels great
I hope we could get together again soon

EP#24: Valentine Post
This is about my Valentines Day
I wish you had a Happy Valentines Day
Whether whoever you spent it with
Your family, friends or lover
Well as usual I started this special day
At exactly 12:00AM
I texted to be the first to greet
Then at around 1:00AM I slept
Woke up at 9:30AM
Drank iced-tea then watched the Rookie Sophomore game
Then at around 10:30AM
I took a shower
Because we are going to SM Bacoor
To buy my birthday clothes :D
Well at around 11:30AM
We left Cavite City
And decided to have lunch at Hidden Tapsihan in Bacoor
Then we when we arrived at SM
Then I bought clothes
Then after it
My Mom wanted to send me to Let's Face It
To get a facial treatment
I agreed and here we are
The first thing that they told me to do is
To wash my face three times
After doing it
I went to the bed or chair whatever
Then the one who will treat me asked me to lie down
Then she opened the lamp on top of me
I was blinded by the light for a while
Then after a few seconds she closed it
And said "Ang dami mong pimples"
I replied "Kumonti na nga po yan eh" :D
Then she proceeded with what she's going to do
It is not my first time to do this
So I know what's going to happen
At first everything was good
Then midway my cell phone started to vibrate
Which is in my pocket
Then it is T-Tel calling
So I answered it
Then after the call
Here we are the main event
The pricking
As usual it is painful at some point
Every time I feel some pain
I move my feet :D
And sometimes there's some tears
Falling from the side of my eye
But no I did not cry out loud for God's sake
Then after it
She applied this mask t my face
Then gave me a little massage
Then said be still for 20 minutes
Then the treatment concluded
When she took off the mask
And said don't wash my face till tomorrow
After it me and T-Tel bought a shirt at Artwork
Then went to the department store to look for our Mom
Then while we're there
I saw Nicole (my high-school crush)from afar
So I was not able to greet her
But there's nothing between us anymore :D
From the department store
We went to French Baker
Coz T-Tel hasn't had lunch yet
And also we are about to leave
So she took-out from there
Then we met with T-Tin
I transferred to her car
As we are on our way to Calle Real
For our Family Valentines dinner
Then I ordered Pork Tender Tips
Then here are the foods
When I saw what they gave to me
I was so shocked
The serving for me is so small
But they said after dinner
They are so full
And me still hungry
Then we went to Red Ribbon
Coz Mom wants some coffee
Where there isn't any
So we just bought a cake then went home
When we arrived
T-Tin told us (Me and T-Tel)
That we are going to have a drink
We are drinking Vodka-mansi as I call it
I checked for calamansi and bought Sprite
Then here's the three of us drinking
I drank about 3 glasses of Vodka-mansi
I turned red as usual
That's pretty much about my Valentines Day
How would I conclude it?
Of course greet everyone for the very last time
And be the last person to greet
Happy Valentines Day!!!
I wish you had a Happy Valentines Day

LP#5: Mighty Bond
Written: February 12, 2009 @ 6:30PM
By: Benj Medina III
Ikay muling nakasama
Tayo'y magkatabi
Di muli makaimik
Ako ay nanahimik
Ngunit pag ikaw ay kasama
Oh giliw ako'y napakasaya
At nang mahawakan ang iyong kamay
Sana'y may mighty bond ang aking palad
Para di na mahiwalay sa iyong kamay
Dahil ika'y gusto laging makasama
Kahit saan magpunta
At ikaw ang makapiling habang-buhay
Kahit anong oras ika'y nasaisip
At kapag ako'y tulog ikaw ang nasa panaginip
Pangalan mo'y laging nababangit
Di maintindihan kung bakit
Bigla-biglang napapangiti
Nagmumukhang baliw
Sa tuwing ikaw ay naalala
At nang mahawakan ang iyong kamay
Sana'y may mighty bond ang aking palad
Para di na mahiwalay sa iyong kamay
Dahil ika'y gusto laging makasama
Kahit saan magpunta
At ikaw ang makapiling habang-buhay
Ngunit hanggang kaibigan lang ang iyong maiibibigay
Masakit man para sa akin
Kung anong gusto mo'y dapat respetuhin
Kung may mighty bond sana ang palad ko
Ngayon ay naririto ka sa aking tabi
Magkahawak-kamay buong araw at gabi

This is supposed to be half of what I am going to give Maan for Valentines Day
I'm considering this as one of my masterpieces
I was not able to write anything this good in a long time
And basically this all about how I feel about her
And Maan if you'll be able to read this
Hope that you'll like it
Don't know if what I'm doing this right
Or I'm doing it wrong
I don't know if I'm going too fast
Don't know if I'm going too slow
I'm so clueless
I hope this won't become a mess
This is the first time I did something like this
There's so much to come
And I always want to be beside you
Makes me want to spend forever with you
I'm so happy when I'm with you
When it's the two of us alone
I can't stop talking to you
Always want to make you smile
But when someone is with us
Things would be different
I'm becoming my old self
Being shy and quiet
I'm becoming a different person when they're around
I don't know why
I just got to loosen up a bit
But it is taking me a while
I even made a script
But only said half of it
I'll be smiling out of the blue
It is every time I remember you
Looking like crazy
And it's all because of you
This is the first time I felt something like this
Now I don't want to miss a thing
I always want to be beside you
Makes me want to spend forever with you
I'm so happy when I'm with you
I want to be alone with you
And if it's okay
To hold your hand
To hug you tight
To kiss your lips
You'll be the first one
I'll experience all of this with
Ever since I saw you for the first time
I just can't stop thinking of you
Makes me want to spend forever with you

EP#23: I'm Cool With That
This is about my reaction on what happened between me and Maan
It's somehow confidential
Sorry I ain't going to spill out what happened
I don't know what went wrong
But she said there's nothing that is wrong
Maybe it's something I've done
No there's nothing that I've done that went wrong
I don't know
Why this happened all of a sudden
I did not expected this
Never it went to my mind
I don't know why every time I am serious about a girl
Things just don't go the way they should
I admit I also think that I find things between us going too fast
But she wants us to stay as friends
Just friends
Even though at some point it hurts
Just got to accept it
Got to respect what she wants
My mistake is I expected that there's a mutual feeling between us
But I can live with us just being friends
I don't know what to say
It's not everyday that I feel something like that
Very happy every time I think of her
When I'm with her
When I remember her
I am so serious about her
That I am not even giving a damn that there's a pretty girl standing beside me
Cause all I think about is her
I know this is not easy
And I just want to thank my room mates
Kuya Iking, Rovin, Kuya Paeng and Peping
For being supportive
Especially right now when I really need it
Dudes thanks a lot
I really do appreciate it
And also Joyce and Alah
Thanks guys
Note: I'm sorry if my thoughts are not that organized cause at the moment I've already drank about ¾ of the mucho size red horse
Just want to get this out of my chest
It's somehow confidential
Sorry I ain't going to spill out what happened
I don't know what went wrong
But she said there's nothing that is wrong
Maybe it's something I've done
No there's nothing that I've done that went wrong

RP#8: Goodby DotA..Hello Left 4 Dead
At last a game that could make the very popular DotA vanish
Let us all give a warm welcome to Left 4 Dead
But let me discuss DotA first
I played DotA (Defense of the Ancients) for about 2 – 3 years time already
And during my high school days it was the vice of most of us
Spending at least 6 hours a week in the computer shop
Playing and competing with my classmates and friends
Can't get any better than that
Plus the player limit is up to 10
Whether it's a 5vs5, 3vs3 or 1vs1
With a lot of heroes to choose from
Then tons of items to equip your hero
This is the ultimate strategy RPG game
But I am seeing the downfall of DotA right now
Let me give you a brief introduction of Left 4 Dead
I still don't know a lot about this game
But I'll describe it base on what I have experienced
Well basically it is very similar to Counter-Strike
A first person shooter kind of game
But here you'll be against the zombies
And you're 4 in the group trying to find your way to survive
The large number of zombies that you'll encounter
And make it to the end to be rescued
It is very fast-paced
Swarm of zombies might appear on your screen
You'll get shocked most of the time
Plus there are numerous bosses in the game
And some of them doesn't appear only once in a stage
Like the Boomer, Smoker and Hunter
You would encounter them several times
But the Witch and the Tank
Will only be encountered once in the stage
Teamwork is the key to victory
It is advisable to play with 3 of your friends
To fill in all the characters in the game
And not let AI to take control of one of the characters
Because it's harder to communicate with them
Though it's not impossible
Through radio chat which is built-in the game
You can communicate with both human and AI team mates
Okay then let me proceed to my first L4D experience
This happened Monday night at around 9:00PM
When Peping and I decided to try it at the new computer shop
Located at the lobby of the Burg
But then as we are both getting ready
Rovin came back and we asked him to join us
Then the three of us went down to the computer shop
And then asked the administrator for 3 pc's
Then we started the game
We cannot even create our own game at first
But Rovin asked the admin to teach us how to do it
And it is very simple
In the console command you need to type map
Then the others will connect to the server
Pretty much like any other LAN game
To my surprise I have already played this game once
When we made our MP last term at Lorenzo's house
He already got this game and I was able to play it
Well at first we're all doing fine
Just killing the zombies around
And discovering the game
But as time pass by
We are still in the same stage and still not accomplishing our mission
Then I saw that we need to get in a hospital to be rescued
Then after a while I also located the hospital
Problem is, we can't get to the hospital
So we decided to play in another map
Here we discovered that once we located a new safe house
We should just close the door when all of us is in it
Then the stage would be over
It is that simple
Simple yet challenging at some point
And the best thing is it is easy to learn
Unlike DotA it will take some time to master a hero
And there are about 90 heroes as of now
In just a matter of time
This game would become the new DotA in terms of popularity
And after we played
The three of us were all elated
And still want to play
But Kuya Iking needs some help
So we all went out to help him
The computer shop is pretty cool
There's a restaurant in there
A perfect place to hang out with friends
Let us all give a warm welcome to Left 4 Dead
But let me discuss DotA first

EP#22: The Lunch @ Munch
The title pretty much explains what this post is about
This just happened today
February 5, 2009 @ around 12:15PM
I was so eager to have lunch with Joyce's friend Maan
But she said she will only that to happen
If she'll also bring their two other friends
So got no other choice
I still agreed even on that situation
It is my first time to be in that kind of situation
And I am really bad during first times
And nothing changed
This would be the worst of the worst
Let me tell you what happened
When they arrived
Maan seated beside me
I just said hi
Then after that we began thinking of what to order
And when each of us had decided
Alah and I went to the counter and ordered
After it we went back to the table
And they began talking and talking
Me what did I do
I just talk every time I am asked by them
I was not able to talk to Maan immediately
And that thing lasted for quite some time
Then when we are about to finish eating
Still I haven't talked to her
All of a sudden she asked “Kamusta ka naman.?”
Damn she even made the first move
I was not able to answer immediately
Because we all laughed about it
Then they let us talk to one another
Then I asked her about what does she do during her free time?
She replied “Wala naman, ganito lang kasama ko lang sila”
Then I asked her about her family
Then after that the interview that she had last Tuesday
Then after that not a single thing
Then Alah began to tell me to get her number
But I knew that I would not be able to get it
Based of what I have done
But we knew that we would leave at around 1:30PM
Because they still have a class
But I still asked her for it
But she only smiled then said “Di naman ako masyado nagtetext eh”
Before I was able to say anything else
They started to talk about them having no class
And maybe she forgot about what that I am asking for her number
I am scared to ask her again
Because I don't know
I just felt that I should not do that
Then after 10 – 15 minutes we left Munch Gulp
Then we went to Prov
But Maan and Saina need to photocopy something
And Alah and I went up to the Burg to get our things
Then went back to Prov again
When we get there
They were'nt there yet
But after a few minutes
Here they are
Maan did not sit beside me when they arrived
But her friend made her
Then Alah put his foot beside me
So I would be closer to Maan
I just gave her the songbook
Then nothing else happened
Until one of her friends I think Saina
Dared me to sing a song that I would dedicate to Maan
I was not about of anything else
That would be more perfect
Except for “Closer You and I”
Then that is what I sang for her
I can say that I sang it pretty well :D
And the lyrics were just right
Especially the line “Give it time just a little more time we'll be together”
Then after a while
Jayce gave me the songbook
To me again
After I sang “Closer You and I”
I began thinking of what to sing next
Then I thought of “True” by Ryan Cabrerra
Not the whole song is perfect for the situation
But it is good
Thank God I didn't get a low score
I got a 91 and a 93
I still have a make-up class to catch at 3:00PM
And when I checked the time
It is already 2:56PM
Got loss track of time
I decided just to go to school at 4:30PM
But just minutes pass 3:00PM
Maan and her friends had to leave
So we all left Prov we are with Allan (Alah's friend) this time
Then we just took them to their school
Then parted ways
But Me and Maan were not able to say our goodbyes to each other
So she texted Alah to say thank you to me
We had a stick of Dunhill (Me, Alah and Allan)
Then parted ways as well
Then on the way back to the Burg
Alah said that I should text Maan
So that I could thank her also
So without asking for her number
Alah gave it to me
Then when I got back to the Burg
It is only 3:20PM
I got so frustrated about what happened
And did not come to my make-up class
But there's this thing on Saturday
There would be a lunch at I don't know where
And there would be a little drinking as well
And I'll be there
We'll see what's going to happen
This just happened today
February 5, 2009 @ around 12:15PM
I was so eager to have lunch with Joyce's friend Maan
But she said she will only that to happen
If she'll also bring their two other friends
So got no other choice
I still agreed even on that situation
It is my first time to be in that kind of situation
And I am really bad during first times
And nothing changed
This would be the worst of the worst
Let me tell you what happened
When they arrived
Maan seated beside me
I just said hi
Then after that we began thinking of what to order
And when each of us had decided
Alah and I went to the counter and ordered
After it we went back to the table
And they began talking and talking
Me what did I do
I just talk every time I am asked by them
I was not able to talk to Maan immediately
And that thing lasted for quite some time
Then when we are about to finish eating
Still I haven't talked to her
All of a sudden she asked “Kamusta ka naman.?”
Damn she even made the first move
I was not able to answer immediately
Because we all laughed about it
Then they let us talk to one another
Then I asked her about what does she do during her free time?
She replied “Wala naman, ganito lang kasama ko lang sila”
Then I asked her about her family
Then after that the interview that she had last Tuesday
Then after that not a single thing
Then Alah began to tell me to get her number
But I knew that I would not be able to get it
Based of what I have done
But we knew that we would leave at around 1:30PM
Because they still have a class
But I still asked her for it
But she only smiled then said “Di naman ako masyado nagtetext eh”

LP#3: Smile
Lyrics by: Benj Medina III
Hey there's something in your smile
Could be love at first sight
You were never part of a dream
Now to be with you is my dream
Since the day that I saw you
I can't forget that picture of your smile
Coz every night I sleep too late
Coz I think of you
It's past 2 AM I'm still awake
Thinking of you
While lying on my bed
Maybe it's you
Who I've been waiting for
And I hope we could be together
And in two days
I'll be seeing you
I'll get the chance
To know more of you
And now I can't stop thinking of
What will happen
When that day comes
Since then it's you that I see
Every time and everywhere
I didn't saw this coming
So it must have been a lucky day
Thank God I'm not with somebody
And I know that you're still single too
And maybe it shows
That we really are meant to be
I know we should have met
Three months ago
But it did not happen
And now it did
So did you feel
The same thing that I felt
With just one smile
This special smile
While looking in your eyes
In a little while
Give it time hope not a really long time
Maybe we'll be together
You and I
Hey there's something in your smile
Could be love at first sight
You were never part of a dream
Now to be with you is my dream
Since the day that I saw you
I can't forget that picture of your smile
Coz every night I sleep too late
Coz I think of you
It's past 2 AM I'm still awake
Thinking of you
While lying on my bed
Maybe it's you
Who I've been waiting for
And I hope we could be together
And in two days
I'll be seeing you
I'll get the chance
To know more of you
And now I can't stop thinking of
What will happen
When that day comes
Since then it's you that I see
Every time and everywhere
I didn't saw this coming
So it must have been a lucky day
Thank God I'm not with somebody
And I know that you're still single too
And maybe it shows
That we really are meant to be
I know we should have met
Three months ago
But it did not happen
And now it did
So did you feel
The same thing that I felt
With just one smile
This special smile
While looking in your eyes
In a little while
Give it time hope not a really long time
Maybe we'll be together
You and I

RTP#11: Golden Post
This is the 50th post in my blogsite
I want to discuss about my 50:50 achievable dreams
This one is gonna be fun :D
I'm going to start of with being an author of a book
I really want write my own book
Whether it's a novel
Or just a compilation of poems
I really want to see a book with my name in it as the author
I want to see it in all the bookstores I know
And I want to influence people through my works
I want to write a book about being a high school student
When I was still a high school student
And now about the life of a college student
And I also thought of writing a superhero story a comic
Like the X-Men, Spiderman etc..
I really love the thought
Of seeing my book in bookstores :D
Next would be me as a Singer/Songwriter
Currently I already got the ability to write the lyrics of a song
Problem is I can't give it a melody
I want to sing my own songs
Pretty much like what Ne-Yo is
I would also write songs for other artists
And what excites me about this thing is
Me having my own album
Actually I am already starting to work on it
But only it'll only be a 'lyrics album'
*My first entry would be 'Enough' I've posted that already
I must say I really grown up as a writer
When I was only starting when I was 14 or 15 years
I only write about my experiences
But now I can write about others too
I am also experiencing sometimes out of nowhere
Lyrics just come running into my mind
And of course I will write it immediately
Most of the time it's all about girls
I also tried writing form a girl's point of view
But no I still can't do it
But I'm really happy of what I am now as a songwriter
But there's more things to learn and develop
Plus when I'll become a successful one
There's a big chance that I'll be lasting a long time
Then let's move on to the next one
Which is being a model
No not a ramp model
But the one who appears in magazines and billboards
Just to see myself in one of those
Would really be great :D
And maybe I would appear in a magazine
Because of the picture that I have
And I got Kuya Germs in the background
And it could be submitted to FHM :D
This is only a crazy ambition
I don't think this one is ever gonna happen
But if given the chance, why not? :D
And also I want to be a radio DJ
Where I can say whatever great ideas I want
And play songs for people
Make people laugh through my jokes
And influence people in a good way
Make them overcome boredom because of the traffic
I also want to be a DJ in a club too
Where I would perform an make people dance
And every night I get the chance to see and meet pretty girls in the club
And I would even get paid for what I am doing
Even if I'm just having fun
So basically I want to be famous
But no I don't want to be an actor
Or a professional sports player
And also I don't want to enter politics to be famous
What I want is like I've said earlier
I want to influence people through my works
That pretty much sums it all
Happy 50th post to me :D

RTP#10: Hmm.. Interesting
This is something about my professor discussed in my class
And it is about friends
I mean true friends
And she gave out some sort of criteria for that
It was the first one that really made me think
It is same interests
And she then asked my classmates
On which do they prefer in having friends
The ones with their common interests
Or the one with their opposite interests
And most of them answered the one with same interests
And who can blame them that is how it should be
But I concluded that I'll have both
Let me explain the same interests side first
It is really good talking to someone with a common interest
And here you will learn more about the same thing
It would definitely be a fun conversation
And I am pretty sure that the two of you would talk again
Then here we have the opposite interests side
I will find this person really interesting
I am pretty balanced
I mean I can keep quiet and I can be loud
I can be funny and I can be serious as well
If you are the 'Emo' one
Who loves to stay alone
And you're going to talk
With the 'Party Person'
Who loves to talk a lot
And vice versa
Think about what would happen
If they will just go through a normal conversation
I myself can't imagine it clearly
But if I'm in this position
One good question that I would ask
Is 'What is it like?'
'What is it like being always alone?'
'What is it like always going home late because of the party?'
See my point?
And with this being asked
You'll learn about the opposite of yours
And see what it is like
And you may even try it
And end up like him/her
If it is good and fun then why not?
I just find it really interesting
From an Emo becoming the Life of the Party
But I can't really see it the other way around :D

RTP#9: From One Side to the Other
This is something about I realized about myself
I am the only guy in our family
Ever since my Dad passed away due to heart attack
It is almost 10 years since he died
And I am turning 18 on February 20 '09
Then it is almost 10 years also
That I've been living with girls
My Mom and my three siblings
Well with that being said
I know many things about girls
And I understand them very well
And it is hard especially with their mood swings
And when in the mall we are 95% at the ladies' stores
But it's fine, why? Because I get the chance to see pretty girls :D
But here's the thing
Living with them is hard
Because I can't talk to them about everything
Yes I can talk to them about the NBA in one minute
But 15 minutes? Nah, I don't think so
I'm sure they would change the topic after a minute
See my point?
Then now I am living at the Burg with 4 guys
So that would make 5 of us including me
And what I love about living here
Is I can talk about them about anything
School, girls, basketball, girls wrestling and por#
And including our problems sometimes
With family and school
And my Mom told me once
That that is the one thing that I don't know
And that is living with a man around
Which is true it is almost 10 years since that happened
And now I know how to live with both sexes
Now I can understand people even better
And I've grown a lot since then and it will not stop right there
I am the only guy in our family

LP#2: Enough
Lyrics by: Benj Medina III
Stanza I:
It's almost been a year
Since you broke up with me
Because you chose him over me
And there's nothing I can do
But baby it's okay
Because I also played the game
And maybe you're just a better player than I am
Pre-Chorus I:
Have you had enough
Baby it's been months and you haven't changed a bit
And I want to thank you
For breaking us
And choosing him
It made me realize
You're not worth to be loved by me at all
Chorus I:
Baby we didn't last long
But I did shed some tears
For a few days I hoped
That you'll come back to me
And I want you to be happy
So I did let go of you
And now I feel good
For the choice we made
Stanza II:
I said you wouldn't last with him
I guess I am right
Because he can't understand you
Like the way I did
And baby it makes no sense
That everyday you fight with him
I expected that to happen
And now you just got hurt again
Pre-Chorus II:
Have you had enough
Baby it's been months and you haven't changed a bit
And now you want me to
Bring us back
No girl the past is past
It made me realize
You loved me more than him
Chorus II:
Not because you still love me
We could be us again
Baby I moved on from us
Free from you for good
I wish I didn't love you
Like the way I did
Cause my love
Just became a waste
Chorus III:
Thank God we didn't last long
I shouldn't shed some tears
I loved you and you cheated
Now I don't want you back
No I'm not with somebody
But girl I'm sure I'll find
Somebody that really
Deserves my love
Stanza I:
It's almost been a year
Since you broke up with me
Because you chose him over me
And there's nothing I can do
But baby it's okay
Because I also played the game
And maybe you're just a better player than I am
Pre-Chorus I:
Have you had enough
Baby it's been months and you haven't changed a bit
And I want to thank you

Baby I moved on from us
Free from you for good
I wish I didn't love you

Now I don't want you back
No I'm not with somebody
But girl I'm sure I'll find
Somebody that really
Deserves my love

RP#7: Friends
This about the TV show Friends which I watched and finished via dvd
There were 10 seasons of this show
And I've finished it already
But I really wished that the show should go on
But everything should go to an end
I felt sad after finishing the last episode
Of course I can still watch it all over again
But I learned a lot from that show
Literally from each of the main cast
Let me start off with Chandler
Also known as Mr.Funny man
He is the one who just can't stop telling jokes
I myself loves to make people laugh
And by watching him I learned a bunch of new tricks
And also he is the one who thinks about the future
Saves money, which is what I also do
Then let's move to Monica
She became Chandler's wife
And also Ross' sister
She the most organized among all of them
When I said organized I really ment it
And she came from fat to thin
Very determined and competitive just like me
Next is Dr. Ross Geller
A paleontologist and somehow a geek
He is also competitive like Monica
He was married three times in the show
And been divorced three times as well
He is also Mr. Always Right
Sensitive just like me
And also a real gentleman
And has a lot of respect to girls
Let's move on with Rachel
The Ms. Popular in High School
Spoiled and irritating at the start
But she wanted a new life
And she got it by living independently
Earning money through job
And not relying on her dad anymore
She is really tough
That's what I admire in her character
Second to the last is Phoebe
The weirdest among them
Never had a serious relationship
Until she met Mike
She grew alone
Definitely she is Miss Independent
Since her mom committed souicide
Then she and her twin splitte up
She lives a very simple life
Though very weird at some point
You got to love her simplicity and courage
Last but not the least
Drumroll please..
Let's all welcome Joey
The ultimate playboy
Who almost slept with every girl in New York in the show
Which has a signature pickup line of
"How you doin?"
An actor
All charm not much brain
But what I love about this guy is
He never gives up
When he does not qualify
He'll try to be better the next time
And he is really good in giving advices
Just like me
And he is a huge Knicks fan
And he is my favorite among all of them
Well as you can see these are 6 different persons
And what I learned and trying to do is
Creating a balance of the six of them in me
And also they area perfect example of true friends
The ones who is willing to do anything for you
The ones who will be in your good times and bad times
Through the success and the failures
Basically they will be there for you for your entire life
There were 10 seasons of this show
And I've finished it already
But I really wished that the show should go on

Never had a serious relationship
Until she met Mike
She grew alone
Definitely she is Miss Independent
Since her mom committed souicide
Then she and her twin splitte up
She lives a very simple life
Though very weird at some point
You got to love her simplicity and courage
Last but not the least
Drumroll please..
Let's all welcome Joey
The ultimate playboy
Who almost slept with every girl in New York in the show
Which has a signature pickup line of
"How you doin?"
An actor
All charm not much brain
But what I love about this guy is
He never gives up
When he does not qualify
He'll try to be better the next time
And he is really good in giving advices
Just like me
And he is a huge Knicks fan
And he is my favorite among all of them
Well as you can see these are 6 different persons
And what I learned and trying to do is
Creating a balance of the six of them in me
And also they area perfect example of true friends
The ones who is willing to do anything for you
The ones who will be in your good times and bad times
Through the success and the failures
Basically they will be there for you for your entire life
EP#21: Beaten by My OWN Move
This is about how I loss to my sister at bowling in Wii
Well it is her first time to play it
Then I myself knowing that my throw is not straight
Already have my strategy planned
And to my surprise she also has the same stroke
And what she did is she copied my strategy
Which really put me off my game
Then that led to my loss
I just feel bad because my OWN strategy is the one which defeated me
I thought and practiced and mastered that tactic
Just to be copied and be used against me
DAMN!!!
>:-(

EP#20: Wii-k End
This something about what happened when I played our Nintendo Wii
After knowing that we already have it
I was so hyped and so eager to play
Then when I started playing it was all fun
I didn't even believed that it would get me tired
But after playing the boxing game in Wii-Sports
I am sweating big time, like I went to the gym for real
Of course, I didn't stopped playing
Then I got really tired and sleepy
So I went to bed at 3:00AM
I still need to wake up early
Because Kuya Marvin is coming to our house
The next morning because he also wants to play Wii
I woke up at 8:00AM
Then didn't even cared about having breakfast
I am already feeling a little pain in my body
Especially in my elbow joints
So I surfed the net for a while
And didn't played Wii until Kuya Marvin arrived
Then I went to my Chabakano class at Baste
(sorry if the spelling of Chabakano is wrong)
Then when I am back at home
I played Wii again
Then after having dinner and washing the dishes
I began feeling the pain
Actually I'm still experiencing it right now
And I'm telling you this ain't pretty
Though I really had a lot of fun
But here I am experiencing the consequences of playing too much
My arm and my back really hurts so badly right now
Definitely it is the most enjoyable way to exercise

RP#6: 1st Week of 2K9
This is something about everything that happened to me from Jan 4 '09 - Jan 10 '09
Sunday
I am already at the Burg by noon
Got no one to talk to all day long
So bored, got nothing to do
SO I cleaned up a little bit
And watched TV and Friends
Then grabbed a couple of beers
Before I went to sleep
Monday
First day of the 3rd term
As expected not all professors are going to show up
In fact I only met half of my professors this day
But what brighten up this day
Is my HUM10 class
There are a couple of pretty girls in here
And I am planning to hit on one of them
When I got back to the Burg
There's Kuya Iking but he is asleep
From 2:00PM (I arrived) - 7:00PM
Then when he woke up
We ate dinner together
And talked a lot
Then when I was about to sleep
We are both in the bedroom already
He started coughing and coughing
So he went down his bed and said
"Tang ina Jay, umiilaw tsinielas mo?!"
(because my new havs is glow-in-the-dark)
And our light in the bedroom is closed
So it is glowing a the moment
I can't help but laugh about how he reacted
Tuesday
I have no class this day
And Rovin was also back at the Burg
This day I was a bum
Still got no school works
So I just sat down watched TV
Played elem TD
Remixed a little
Ate and slept
Wednesday
This is when our first lecture in Calculus happened
Concluded by the first seat work
I managed to do half of it
Then copied the rest of it
Because I am lacking time
We also met our prof in HUM10
And even though she looks strict
I am not going to miss a single class
Because I want to see the girls in our class :D
Then HUM11 started to get boring
Still we have not met our professor in COE116
And we met our professor in COE116L
Which is Ma'am Yumang
Then we are complete at the Burg this time
Me, Peping, Rovin, Kuya Paeng and Peping
Thurday
A very similar day like Tuesday
Not a lot of things happened
Got no class
No home works
Basically got nothing to do
Friday
Quiapo Day!!
Thank God I'm from south bound
So I was not affected of the traffic
Caused by the devotos to Nazareno
School is fine this day
Had a discussion in Calculus
Which I barely understood
Again no professor in HUM10
And also in HUM11
But we met our professor in COE116
And I meet up with Alah
And went to the Burg
Just hanging out until 4:00PM
Because that's when T-Tin's work would be over
Then we went to T-Tin's clinic
And we are told to meet Anne and Mom at Blue Wave
There we also ate early dinner at Pizza Hut
Then we went to S&R
Then we drived-thru for a milkshake
Then we headed home
Saturday
No class
But got some stuff to do
I got a haircut
I went to a birthday party at 3:00PM
Then after the party
Alah, Ate Mitchy, Kuya Marvin, T-Tel and Me
Went to Island Cove to play billiards
But all the tables are occupied
So we switched to videoke
After an hour we left
And did some picture-picture around
Then after it we went home already
I had a pretty good week
Still not tough just having fun
Not that much school works too
I almost forgot
From Sunday-Thursday
I had at least 1 bottle of beer :D

RTP#8: Pretty OR Yummy?
This is something about how I classify girls physically
Well this only started as one of my jokes
Which I always ask to my friends
Pretty means the girls who have a pretty face
Yummy come on guys you know what I mean about this :D
It goes like this
“Who would you choose as a girlfriend? Pretty or Yummy?”
Or "Pretty or Yummy? Saan ka don?"
They usually just laugh about it
But once they have chosen one
I'll follow up it with
If he chose pretty
“So it's ok if your girlfriend has a pretty face but fat? Or extremely thin?”
And if he chose yummy
“So it's ok if your girlfriend has a hot body but not pretty?”
Then most of them will have a second thought on their choice
Funny thing is right now I also have to pick one
And I mean just one not two but one
Having a new term
That would also mean that I would have new subjects
And of course new classmates
In one of my minor subjects
There's two girls in this class that really did caught my eye
One of them falls in pretty
One of them falls in yummy
Let me tackle on pretty first
She is more fresh looking
She has a model-type of body (slim & sexy)
She has a fairer skin
Then here is yummy
She has a sexier body
No, she does not have and ugly face but less pretty face
Okay that's about it
But I decided to go for yummy
So in our second day in class
I tried to create a space for her beside me
First I sat at the back where she sat at the previous meeting
Then a bunch of guys came and sat on that row also
So I figured she won't be seating here anymore
Then I transferred on the row in front of me
Where no one is seated yet
I sat in the isle behind Luigi
Then two girls sat in my row
But still it's ok
Because the seat beside me is still vacant
And there's only few seats available
Then here she is came late
From the backdoor
She headed towards a seat
And unfortunately she sat on the seat
In front of Luigi
Then I transferred again
But this time I sat beside Luigi
Then while filling up the information in my index card
Accidentally I glanced at yummy's card
I saw her surname begins with “M” followed by “a”
So if my professor would arrange us in alphabetical order
There's a huge chance that we are going to be seatmates
Hope that would happen
Of course there's no assurance that there would be something between us
But it's worth a try
Being the torpe guy that I am
I really had second thoughts about my plan
But then I heared this song in my iTunes
Which is Akala by Parokya ni Edgar
And it really struck me hard
Especially the lines
Wala kang mapapala kung hindi ka magbakasakali
Dahil lumilipas ang oras
Baka ka maiwinan kung di mo susubukan
And I realized
It's a new year
It's definitely a time for a change
So how about you?
Pretty or Yummy?

EP#19: 1st 2K9 Post
This is something about what happened in New Year
I'll be starting on what happened during the last hours of 2008
Approaching the year 2009
The noise are all over the place
Whether it's coming from an early firework
Or from the sound system of our neighbors
Then here I am
I thought of something new to do for our sounds
I thought of remixing songs by my own
So after downloading a software
I started practicing for a couple of days
Then here comes December 31
At around 4:00PM I began recording my own versions of songs
But unfortunately it didn't went out pretty well
And it is already 10:30PM
So what I did is I dispatched what I did earlier
And fought the sound system of my neighbors
By doing an on the spot remixing
Having only one speaker
I still felt good while doing it
I am like a DJ in a club
Yeah I really brought the house down :D
Then here comes the New Year countdown
I went out of our house about 10 minutes before 12:00AM
And I began jumping around
And the fireworks are starting
My Mom and Nanay Itcha also began lighting their own
Then at 12:45AM we went back inside our houses
And and had our first meal of 2009
After it we drank a sparkling juice
Then a glass of Absolut Vodka
Then we all went to sleep at around 1:30AM
I woke up at 12:30PM
I only had breakfast
Then surfed the net immediately
At around 2:00PM my Mom told us to dress up
Because were heading to Greenhills and there we are going to hear mass
And do a little shopping as well
But unfortunately when we arrived it is closed
So we just ate at Flapjacks
Then there we were able to see
Kuya Germs and Jojo A.
Then after having early dinner
We went to the EDSA Shrine
And there we were able to hear mass
Then we went to Rob Galleria
And there we did a little shopping
On our way home we dropped by Starbucks
And it has been a while since I went to Starbucks
There are a couple of pretty girls there
I am like Ooh check them out :D

RP#5: Year Ender Post
This is about what happened to me in the year 2008
Here's a list of what am I going to talk about
-School
-Family
-Love life
-Personal Growth
School: 2008 was a great school year for me
even though I had my worst term in the beginning of the year
I was able to bounce back in the succeeding 3 terms
Especially in the 3rd term which was June-September
I had no failing grades :D
In this year also I felt I am a college student already
I mean I experienced the "College Life"
Like drinking and smoking
Plus I also had my first bar experience here
It was a tough school year for me
But still I managed to pull it off
Even though there were sleepless nights
It's all worth it :D
Family: 2008 was a not so great year for our family
In the beginning of the year
It is the prime of the issue between Anne and her boyfriend
At May a couple of BIG changes are made
Anne is enrolled in Pasig Catholic College (PCC)
We decided that I I'll be staying in the Burg when the new term comes
Therefore since June 2008:
Anne and Mom lived in Pasig
I lived at the Burg (@Vito Cruz)
T-Tin and T-Tel were the ones who stayed in Cavite
We only had weekends to spend time together
And sometimes it doesn't even happen
Because either my Mom or Anne has to do something
That will cause their failure
To come home to Cavite for the weekend
With all of these things given
Our quality time with each other really suffered
But it did affected us all in a good way
Not a great year but it is okay
And everything is stable right now
Love life: I did not had any productive love life this 2008
In fact I only had one relationship this year
Because I want to be on a serious relationship now
I had troubles in finding the right girl
But when it came
It did not last a long time
After it I said to myself
"Thought it was my time but I guess not yet" :D
Then after that I am back in the looking process
It is May when we broke up
And it is almost January
So I've been single for 6-7 months already
Time really flies when you are having fun
I mean I really had fun being single
Up to the 5th month
But now I am starting to get bored on being single
But because I want a serious relationship
I am willing to wait for it
But I am hoping that it will come soon
And I really like someone right now
Hope that we can work things out regarding this :D
Personal Growth: I grew rapidly in the year '08
Mainly it is because I moved in the condo
And lived away from my family
Literally I lived independently
Together with my elementary friends (Rovin and Peping)
Plus Peping's 2 brothers (Kuya Iking and Kuya Paeng)
Here's a short list of what I learned in this experience so far
- Discipline
- Time-Management
- Budgeting
- Cooking my own food
Basically, pretty much about everything about taking care of myself
This experience was really fun
Bonding with my roommates
Drinking beer while watching Friends or a movie
Doing the "boys talk"
I mean these are a couple of things
That I can only do there
And no way that I can do when I am here in Cavite
But even with those things
We still manage to get passing grades
And how can I forget
Drinking beer while doing a project :D
That's pretty much about my 2008
I am so thankful for everything that happened in that year
And for my failures and defeats
No regrets, just lessons learned :D
