- I know how you treat other people, and I'm beginning to think that you might be treating me the same way. It just scares me because I consider you one of my closest friends. I wish there was a way for me to know if I'm really one of your friends. It will definitely hurt me if I learn that I'm like those you consider idiots.
- Don't you dare hurt her. Don't you dare use her to escape from the emotional quicksand you are in. Do this and I WILL KILL YOU.
- You told me a very important secret about you, and I vow to take it with me to the grave because I did the same thing.
- Once you create insults that attack intelligence and academics to berate other people, it tells more about how intellectually and emotionally deficient you are. Your QPI does not and will never reach over and transcend what's needed to live a true human life.
- If you are wondering, yes, I am defending you. You're still one of my acquaintances after all.
- Thanks for the compliments you drop. You don't know how much an ex-bulimic like me appreciates comments like that, especially those that come from people outside of my very immediate social circle (family, boyfriend etc). They help me recover. Thank you so much!
- I'm happy for you, I sincerely am. But I can't read the entry you made that chronicled your experience. I hurt me a lot because I kept on thinking "That could have been me...why not me?"
- Kudos to changing from that hideous creature into this guy that we all love and like! =)
- NO. I don't like you in that sense.
- Sometimes, girls feign ignorance just to plump your ego up. So don't feel all powerful because she's the one who's got you twirled around your finger.

ADM 102: Introduction to Ateneo-La Salle Games
Thu/Sat/Sunday, 4:00 PM, Araneta Coliseum
Course Description
The course introduces the student-cheerer to the dynamics and principles of the Ateneo-La Salle rivalry. The course employs both theoretical and application dimensions. The theoretical phase exposes the student to the history of the rivalry, the tradition of cheering, the construction of the ideal Atenean 6th Man, and other theoretical concepts.
The application phase on the other hand requires the student to put into practice all the theoretical principles. These practices include, among others: effective skills in lining up for the games, cheering (pre-game, during the game, half-time and post-game), jeering, heckling, creating effective posters and banners for one's favorite players and posing and smiling for Fabilioh.com.
Course Objectives
By the end of the course, the student should have been able to:
- understand what it means to be the Sixth Man

Written Long Test will assess your memorization of the tradition and history of the Ateneo-La Salle rivalry. The test items consist of Multiple Choice questions and an evaluation of True or False statements.
Oral Exam. The student will randomly draw two cheers from a lot. The student must cheer/sing the cheers he picked. Afterwards, he must be able to explain the significance of the cheer/song. He must also be able to identify when these cheers/songs are used.
Practical Exam: The student must line up for tickets. This is a pass or fail exam. If the student is able to acquire a ticket, he automatically gets an A. If he doesn't get any ticket, he must take the Make-Up Test.
Make-up Test: Negotiating with Scalpers. Students who wish to pass the first practical exam for the course but failed to do so must take the Make-Up test. The student must locate a scalper within the vicinity of Araneta Coliseum. This is not a pass or fail test. The student's grade depends on how he was able to acquire a good ticket with the lowest possible price. The better the ticket with lower ticket price, the higher the grade.
Final Exam: Students are required to cheer during the game. The grade depends on the voice quality and frequency of the cheering. The Ateneo standard grading system will be applied. Therefore the passing score for the Final Exam is 70%. Students who cannot stand up and cheer 70% of the time automatically fail the exam.
Bonus points are given to students who are able to convince others to cheer loudly, either through a well-articulated speech or forceful coercion. Extra points are also awarded to fans who make creative banners for their favorite players.
Written Long Test: 20%
Oral Exam: 20%
Practical Exam: 20%
Final Exam: 40%
Course Policies and Other Reminders
1. Plagiarism. Plagiarism is an extreme offense. Do not copy cheers from other schools.
2. Cellphone Use. Using your cellphone to place in bets is illegal. Do not get yourself into trouble.
3. Cuts. Once you are inside Araneta, you are not allowed to leave. You must watch all four quarters. Win or lose, you are not allowed to leave before the Song for Mary is sung.

1. The rains were so heavy that my dad decided to drive us to school than to have 3/5 of his family commute and drown in the rat urine laden flood waters of the metro. We had to leave early, since my sister's class starts at 8.30. Mine didn't start until 10.30 but I had no choice. For the love of god, I was already in school at 8.30 in the morning, and classes weren't suspended by the NDCC until 11.00 am. OH YEAH.
2. We met with our new Biosystematics profs that will take over in Dr. Lagunzad's absence. Sir Ron for lab and Dr. Sagun for lec.
3. CARA'S EPIC CAKE EXPERIENCE X_X
4. The rains got stronger and the winds blew harder, but I still had to commute home. I was half-cursing because my feet went through unavoidable puddles and pools of flowing water and half-minding my umbrella so that it would not flip and invert because of the winds. I was also half-crying and half-laughing due to the fact that I knew that I may have contacted half a hundred different parasites or bacteria from the feet-water contact I had. At one time I was telling myself that I really wanted to go home, and I didn't give a cow's shit to what may have entered my body through the skin on my soles, but by the next minute, I had this urge to cry and disinfect myself immediately with Lysol or something. I also felt like an idiot when the strong winds slammed into my 100 pound body and made it feel like an air balloon. I was literally being blown back by the wind that I can't hardly walk a straight line. PLEASE LANG, REGALUHAN NIYO NA AKO NG KOTSE :|
5. It was our 1.5th anniversary yesterday, and we didn't get a chance to talk that much. I had classes from 10.30-12.30 (the suspension started 12.30 x_x). When my classes ended, I decided to go home early because I feared that the weather might worsen and I'd be stranded somewhere. Jericho, on the other hand decided to stay in school to study for his orals today. Well, I think we're going to have time to celebrate on Friday, hopefully. =)
6. Father Dacanay gave back our topic proposal and he said that we need at least 10-12 sources for our topic. :| If you know any reputable source that tackles celebrity marriages (characteristics, complications, context etc), please let me know. =)
7. I texted my mom about the suspension of classes and told her that I was going straight home. While on the jeep, the rains started to stop, and so I asked my mom if she wanted to go to the mall. She told me that she would want to since the government also instructed government employees to go home because of the bad weather. And so my mom bought me two new pairs of sandals and a new bag...HURRAH =)

FIRST: I really did take it to my heart when you said that my school has caused my tastes to change. Sure, I have changed some aspects of my taste, but hear this: what I like or don't like is a product of my own scrutiny. For the record, being an Atenean didn't have anything to do with it.
SECOND: I am not an elitist. It's not like I chose not to know any of the new local shows or celebrities just because of pure spite. I don't know them simply because I do not get to watch that much TV nowadays because I'm really busy. There are local celebs that I like and some that I abhor because of sucky performances and I'm sure you have a similar list, right?
THIRD: I have my own tastes, and so do you. Besides, it's not like I loved all these things to my core before I was an Atenean---I'm not much into TV and movies ever since.
FOURTH: I can't pretend I like something just to conform. What is it to you if I didn't like something? I have my opinions and so do you. It's not like I accused you of anything for liking something, then why single me out for not liking it? Isn't that unfair?
You meant it as a joke, yes, but I was offended.
Pasensya na. Mababaw na kung mababaw. Hindi lang kasi tama.
~~~~~~~
Sorry. I can't study for theo orals unless I write something.

10 Things You Can/Do Actually Say to Yourself Either Consciously or Unconsciously During and After Anything
1. The base I'm supposed to act on came in very late, and so I created my own base. But before I knew it, the base was created already, only I wasn't informed.
2. Connected with 2: Informing is to trust. Simply put, trust is to tell me what's going on.
3. I won't blame anyone except myself. I could have done more, I could have done better.
4. On the contrary, I could have done better if I was permitted to. DAMN IT.
5. I am aware I have many lapses, but I am also aware that at I delivered and I did what I can do at the very least.
6. I have learned a very valuable lesson. I know you have too, but know that I'm not normally like this and it's true. I'm not making up excuses.
7. I know you know that living things react to their environment and atmosphere. That's exactly what I did. Now looking back, I wished that I was booted out early on because of that environment. It's not worth it to survive in that kind of atmosphere anyway. To extend the metaphor, I could have been born in another environment.
8. Nakakawala kasi ng gana, OKAY. It's not just me.
9. Again, no hard feelings.
10. Oh well. Shit happens. I'M JUST SO GLAD IT'S OVER.

TO MARECA
Service from people like me does not consist of just listening to man's ailments and writing down prescriptions for them.
I want to make the things that they prescribe.
I just don't want to diagnose, I want to discover the deeper molecular or chemical causes of that diagnosis.
THERE IS NO VOCATION THAT IS LESSER THAN THE OTHER VOCATIONS AVAILABLE IN TERMS OF SERVING OTHERS. It is the intensity and dedication that we have towards that vocation that matters.
So don't make that "you are an idiot" face when I'm talking about taking the road less traveled.
Besides, I was not talking to you then, I was talking to my dad(I am really tempted to add a profane word to emphasize my spite but never mind).
TO MAMA AND PAPA
I have not just made this decision in a drop of a hat. I have thought of this for a long time now, and I have made sure not to overlook things.
I have consulted with all sorts of people, read a lot of material, and contemplated a lot about them. I realized that this is what I want for myself. Something that I actually want, not just some decision I arrived at because of motives other than what I see myself doing in the future.
I understand your disappointment, but please trust my decision.
I really, really, really try my very best to bring you all you want and more...just give me your trust in this.
TO AMIEL
Are you going down the path I used to take?
If you are, then that's good. Your patients can be a good source of free tissue samples (HAHA >:)).
Think it through, and good luck.
~~~~~~~~~
I love you all for all that you are---your bitchiness, support, doubt and love.
