| Got teamed up with Angelo and Patrick in the 5th Inquirer Inter-collegiate Debating Championship. While we didn't break into the Octofinals, in terms of team scores, [+] we ranked as the 16th of the 52 teams. ( So, if we were 16th, why didn't we qualify? )
[-] Turned out that you have to be at least a second year law student to get an internship at the law firms. So last Monday, I started working in the Legislative Department at the Senate Office of Sen. Madrigal, who is [+] Committee Head for Youth, Women, and Family Relations (My favourite law subject is Persons and Family Relations Law, btw :)). Right now, I'm to write a letter in behalf of Laban ng Masa to go with Sen. Madrigal's petition to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights. ( Read more. ) I fell down two steps and got a large nasty bruise on my thigh on my first day of work. Dad left for China (again!) early that morning, and I saw him off, which meant that I had to slip in a catnap before I left for work since it's way too early to prepare to leave. Woke up über über late, showered fast and was running around the house when I slipped and fell on the stairs' landing. Hahaha. :)
During Final Exams week, I missed the public vans and rode the train on my way to uni. [-] My two year old Nokia 3650, my favourite phone, got stolen. :( (Please delete the +63.922.63.77.016 number from your lists.) ( 2004. :( )
Was at home the whole week last week (Holy Week). That's a first in so many months.
AND FINALLY, FOR feistydork: ( ♥ ) | |

| ..and the resurrection of the jomvi jokes shall commence.
I got accepted as an intern at the Office of Senator Jamby Madrigal this afternoon.
One out of three slots.
And I'm fricken confused. Can I leave that offer hanging for a couple of weeks or so? Because options for other people are running out by that time, and should I swing out, there'd be this gaping 33.33% vacancy gone to waste.
What I really want is an internship at the SyCip Salazar Hernandez Gatmaitan Law Firm---chances of which are highly uncertain considering the fact that I have yet to submit my transcript and my resume, and that I have to lose my spleen competing for a slot.
What to do, what to do?
1. Leave the Senate's ass cold for a while and wait for the SyCip demi-gods. 1.1. If SyCip=YES, Senate=NO 1.2. If SyCip=NO (FARK-ASS!), Senate=GO
2. Sit. Stay. (Good dog.) But send resume still. 2.1. If SyCip=NO, Jom lauds good decision and is relieved. 2.2. If SyCip=YES, Jom says, "Ha, ha. You can't have me. Must suck for you." *inner sob.*
3. Forget SyCip dreams and never be able to put an end to what-ifs.
Ack. Sounds like the DLSU-UP-UST debacle from 3 years ago.
Need to hit the sack now. Already been awake for 23 hours.
* Sen. Madrigal's campaign jingle used to be "Ja-ja-ja-jamby! Ja-ja-ja-jamby! Chaaaaaange the world~!" ..or something like that. o_O and Judy Ann Santos' face was far too distracting. - Tags:crap, uni

| Went to the mall with Kev ( daylightbreaks) this afternoon after debate training. Even if we walked and scourged the stores for almost 3 hours, and I didn't get to buy what I went there for (no more sizes :\), 'twas really fun picking and criticising stuff with him that I didn't feel tired at all. :D Halfway through the "exploit" Kevin was begging to see a movie and had even faked interest over a Broadband Internet subscription just so he could sit. Haha. I've yet to find a person of the male species who's built for shopping. Before this post sounds like I became the bitchy "you have to come with me and I'm not asking you to say yes because I'm going to drag you into every store anyway", I'd like to clear that I hadn't, and we, not just I, were shopping for ourselves. I ended up buying a Php449 bottle of moisturiser that's supposed to do miracles in 28 days. I shall post on the first day of February and say that it did. (At least I wish I'd post on the first day of February and truthfully say that it did.)
By the way: I've just remembered why I didn't write up New Year's Resolutions last year. And the year before that. And the years before that. It's because I'm lazy. :\ I write them on my birthday (07.Jan, to "redeem" not having written them 6 days before) instead. Would be posting them under a "Friends-Only" post this Saturday so I don't "break tradition". Gaaah. It's pretty obvious what should be first in that list. ( In the meantime, here's my generated one: ) | |

| AB Debate SeriesMia, Elaine, and I, as Team Legal Management A didn't make it to the Semis. :( We broke ranked 2nd in the Quarterfinals tho, with a 4-1 standing (We lost to TDC's Joan, Kayleen and Bry by a 0.5 margin). :) None of us expected to go this far, considering the fact that all of us are amateur debaters who just got in debate this school year and are competing for the first time. I love my team! Thanks Mia and Elaine! <3333333We'll be competing in the ALMAP Debate Series this Saturday... Wish us luck~! ^^ Also, congrats to my neighbour Mae! Her team beat us in that last round, and they're advancing to the Semis. :) Pinoy Big BrotherI don't really watch the show oft, and now i've probably lost the main reason to try to. Ate Say has been evicted out of ABS-CBN's Pinoy Big Brother yesterday. :( I didn't really want her to win in the end, because she won't need the money anyway (Hehe! Kyle, if you ever come across this, I'm sorry! I did shell out lots to vote for her!), but I did want her to be on the final four. :( I am rooting for kickass Nene now tho, so I might try to catch the show still. Just won't shell out money. Hehe. Kyle was on TV last night~! ^^ (She's the über-pretty one in green.) Yeah. Welcome back Ate Say~! :)
And since it's almost 12 mn, HAPPY BEERDAY KEVIN! ( daylightbreaks) ^^ | |

| Still taking 24 units.
Despite the fact that our classes end at 9pm and we don't have a class earlier than 12nn, this sem's schedule's pretty decent. We meet almost every other day, 4x a week. Even if they crammed Research Writing and Labour Standards on a Saturday, I'm thankful that we don't have to sit in Basic Accounting for 6 hours straight (We have 3-hour meetings twice a week).
I can't really say that my Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays are free though. With me helping Kim out for the MMAB Pageant, the AB Debate Series, the UST Dialectics, the inter-major Cheerleading Competition, and the IIDC's coming up this semester, I'm on a leash.
When I left the AB Football Club last semester, I asked my coach whether it was fine if I train with the team once in a while, when I find time, but sadly, even if he said yes, I haven't used my spike shoes since. :(
Gah. Sorry I'm bitching about acads, co-currics and extra-currics again. :) It's just that I have yet to find a technique to juggle all these kitsch. - Tags:uni
