Son of a bitch! It is finally over!!!
Yeah, those filthy lines came from my mouth the moment I finished my DEVC20 exam last Friday morning. That is such a fresh breath of air after the four short months of tortuting ourselves with nonstop works, and prjoects, and assignments, and exams, and whatever.
Gone are the days that I [though I know I'm not alone in here] where I'm gonna cram my paers, and sleep well the day before my exam, only to shock myself the morning and rush all the information and insert them in my mind.
I am so happy that I won't commute myself every Monday morning to LB and go back Thursday afternoon and then commute again on Monday and the routine goes on and on.
But you know what? As much as I am happy that I can funally get the paradise I am looking for, I am sad. i'm even lonelier than the bliss that I am feeling right now.
Let me shift to the Tagalog language...
Ito ang pinakamasayang semsetre na naranasan ko sa buhay college. :) No kidding there. Ang sarap ng feeling na araw araw eh nasa college ka, at tumatambay kasama ng mga friends mo.
Ito kasi yung sem na talagang makikilala mo halos lahat ng DevCom students exisitng dahil mayroong 4 na majors at ang buhay mo ay nasa DevCom na talaga. Mahirap man dahil hassle at talagang stressful lahat ng requirements, ang tanging enjoyment na nakukuha ko ay ang bonding time with groupmates.
Andami kong nakilala na hindi ko alam na nageexist pala buong first year ako. Andami kong naging kaclose na hindi ko inaasahan na magiging kaclose ko. Sa araw araw na ansa DevCom ako, hindi ko maeexplain ang sobrang business na nararanasan ng lahat ng DevCom students thinking na ito na raw ang pinakamadaling sem sa DevCom.
Namimiss ko na ang college hindi dahil madami ang ginagawa, o dahil may pera ako lagi, o dahil makakainom anytime you want, or makakuwi anytime I want, or makikitulog saanman, pero namimiss ko ang mga jokes at atawa at halakhak ng aking mga kaibigan.
Marami man ang napalayo, mas marami ang pumalit at naging malapit para sa akin.
Babye na sa sem na to. Magkakalayo na lahat next sem. So panu ba yan? See you sa mga kamajor ko na lang. :)

DO I MAKE YOU PROUD???
Now, that's sembreak is almost over, [I still have two loooooooooooooooooong exmas next week], I'm starting to miss LB as a whole. Hmm. Maybe because it's the end for the most fun semester you'll experience as a DevCom student. Gone are the days where you'll have 4 major subjects in a semester and you'll be staying at the DevCom building every day!
But of course, nothing beats the joyous atmosphere of my dear college as we won, yes, you heard it right, WE WON last Wednesday at the Dance Contest that was held in commemoration of the UPLB Loyalty Day.
Let me give you some facts first, the Loyalty Day is only celebrated at UPLB for those soldiers of the World War II who used the grounds of my dear alma matter during the midst of the war. So, every October 10, we celebrate Loyalty Day for them [and secretly, for us. :)]
And back tot he dance contest, I was not suppose to be a part of the performance. I was asked to join several times, and though I really want to join, I digress because of the gazillion requirements that I still need to finish (i.e popularization, magazine program, LSD) so I just let that opportunity fly away.
But as what they say, if it's emant for you, it definitely is meant for you. The final night before the main event, I was watching the rehearsals because I'm quite celebrating the fact that my hell week ended earlier. By Tuesday, I am already done with my four exams. So, I was there taking pictures while taking a look at their performance...
...when suddenly, the finale will include lifters in it. So, the choreo was waiting for them to find five guys that will lift siome ladies. They already suggested me, but the last time I lifted someone was almost a year ago, when I was still a member of the UPLB Pep Squad, but after than, none anymore.
few minutes later, there I was practicing witht he rest of them. The ebst part of it is having a free dinner. And in my case, free dinnerS since I was already eating when they gave me a pack of Bugong fried chicken telling that it was exclusive for the lifters. Haha!
The following morning was the special day. the call time was 6:30 am because we're all gonna be attending the parade. And free breakfast! LOL! So there we were under the sun, together with the instructors, professors, department head, waiting for our turn to be called since they are introducing every college. When it's our turn to be called, the hair on the back of my head rose because of the flattering introduction that the host [a DevCom student] gave to us. After all, the College of Development Communication was CHED's choice as one of the only two in the whole Philippines as the Center of Excellence in Communication. Haha!
Before we performed, another set of free food were given to us. This time, it's a cheese burger meal from McDo. I'm trying not to eat the whole meal because I may feel so full and might not be able to lift my partner, which would be a disgrace since that's the my only participation.
When it's our time to perform, I can say w emanaged to do well. Very well in fact. I already felt that we have a big shot of winning. I would be confident in that statement if the group who performed sxth was wearing lovely costumes that looks like they are back up dancers of a noontime show.
And finally, when the winners were announced, we won! Yoohoo! We all jumped for joy. It was so much fun and makes all of us proud. We all have a moment to touch the trophy [a wooden version of the famous mariang banga] and have our own pictures with them.
After that, a celebration followed which means free lunch! Oh, the perks of being a lifter. LOL! It was so fun! All of us at the college is celebrating that day! After eating, we went to watch THE performance, and it was so excellent. There are some mistakes at the first part, but it was complimented at the end.
Later that night, we watched the fireworks display at the Freedom Park. It was beautiful, and we spent the night taking pictures, and still, celebrating. :)
**************************************************
OK, from the famus Mariang banga, let's go now to the infamous Desperate Housewives scandal. Just gonna say my two cents at this issue. I just feel that people here are overreacting. It can be quite understandable that students and graduates from medical schools might feel furious about it but honestly, there's nothing worth fussing about.
It's as if we are not yet used with the jokes that they throw at third world or not so known countries. We have been mentioned in movie as hot spots for drug relocation, our women being known as prostitues, aren't we used to it?
We have been mentioned in other comedy series such as Friends, and Will and Grace, and only now that we're complaining? Why? Is it because the ones affetced are medical specialists? In My Name is Earl, there's a joke thrown to Filipino bellboys, but did we hear such a clamor? No. It's time we stop this ridiculous thing.
And please, let's not involve Teri Hatcher in it. I might hate her so much, and think that she's a bitch, but come on. She's an actress. She's known for acting, not for making political remarks. Anyone who thinks that Hatcher must apologize just wants to feel that Hatcher is begging to us. Come on.
That's all. :)
