THE WEEK IN REVIEW: 14-17 JUNE 2005
TUESDAY: BANGAG
tuesday, the first day of class last week(due to gloria's proclamation of a non-working holiday last monday), started on a rather drowsy note. i went to comm 100 class still feeling groggy. my mind could not distinguish people i met, and so i was tempted to greet everyone a very tongue-in cheek "Hi Violy!" :-P
:-)my mind awakened, albeit rather slightly, in my lingg 110 class. still i just in a haze followed what ma'am cepe was saying. good grief. she might catch me trying to catch some forty winks there. :-P
then film 100. finally direk ed lejano came, and after filling up our filling up of our classcards, asked us what our favorite film was. oh no. i don't watch films. what should i tell them? what should i tell them? i racked my still hazy brain for pieces of scenes that were randomly scattered around my bionic file system. oh yeah. to be amusing, i had to divide those i watched into required and non-required. at least. i stood in front of the class after giving my classcard, and in a usually stage-frightened voice told them, "Um, my name is Masakatsu Kakuta, but it's cumbersome, so please call me Sam. I don't usually watch films unless required, (at this point laughter). and of those required my favorite was 'The Soong Sisters', and of those required, um, Ring."
"'yung Ringu?"asked direk
"yessir."
"why do you like it, aside from the fact that it's japanese?"
oh no. quick thinking, sam. quick thinking. "um, the cinematography, sir." uh oh. i said something i knew nothing of. what was cinematography anyway? and how did it get into my fuzzy vocabulary made fuzzier by the day's more than usual fuzziness?
"ah, the cinematography, which was, by the way, shot in shades of blue, green, and gray. in contrast, the moulin rouge was shot in shades of screaming red, pink, yellow, and... exactly the opposite colors."
i went back to my seat after bowing slightly. whew.
and because of that, i resolved not to go to my filipino creative writing class. i've had a tough time after direk made us watch an indie movie entitled "living in oblivion."
i went to bed early hoping to get up early enough to get to church choir practice the next day.
WEDNESDAY: Escape from Manang Lags's Retirement Party Performance
The day as a student assistant in the Math department went on smoothly. Nothing interrupted my filing the faculty's curriculum vitae, my photocopying of papers, and so on and so forth. Amazing how one cannot escape a dull dreadful life if one resigned to a life of routine. But thank goodness mine was not one of routine, so I still have a chance.
I managed to escape the performance before the time of Manang Lags's retirement party by telling them that it was my Journ 101 class. At which point I arranged with Ma'am Marichu Lambino(the professora) to let me attend her Saturday class instead of the Wednesday, to allow me some extra time for work on Wednesday. :)
THURSDAY: Still the Same As Yesterday
FRIDAY: Woohoo! Weekend!
Well, almost. Having your Journ 101 moved to Saturday 7:00am to 10:00am is not my idea of a weekend. Good thing I was interested in my classes for the day; I otherwise wouldn't call them classes if they weren't. My Lingg 110 class was a major's class, meaning the people there were Filipino, Anthropology, or Linggwistiks majors; Ma'am Cepe only let me in because I told her I was industrious. I felt guilty lying to her afterwards. :P But I AM doing my best naman, e. No need to feel bad anymore. :D
Film 106! My most anticipated class of the week! Well, we watched Shiri.
It was a great but gruesome movie, not a bad thing, but not that appealing to me. It tried my wholesome conservative tastes, the gory scenes. It made me sad.
Still there was no Korean prof. A former student of his taking up his M. A. in the college acted as a sub for the session. His name was Park, he didn't tell us his given name. But at least he told us the professor's full name: Kim Shin-Dong. Nice name. But I would have liked it better if his name had been Jin. :P
Then MPs 10. Oh well. Now that I think about it I regret taking it up. But I have no choice. -_-u I must finish my AH GEs already. -_-u
SATURDAY: TIRED, HAGGARD, SOMEWHAT LIKE HARASSED, BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER. ^_^
I had to get up before 7:00 in the morning. The registration person at the Journ room told me Ma'am Lambino doesn't stretch the time to the limit, but I never thought it would be like THIS. She's a TIMELESS woman. Take it from me, Journ majors who will someday consider Ma'm Lambino.
I afterwards went to the UPCB college entrance exam review at the CEM auditorium of the New Era University to lend an unwanted helping hand. Oh, what a tired day. But never mind. Someone was there during the review. ^_^
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Ah! What a long entry that was! Wha! I'm not doing such a long post for a long time anyway. ^_^cheer!
9:51 AM
No more lonely nights
Am the Head of the Department of Poisons and Antidotes of the College of Substances, also doubling as the chief of the Apothecary for the Department of the National Defense. Ahem.
BUT SERIOUSLY
Am a 4th year University of the Philippines student, but currently am a non-major in the College of Mass Communication. I can write, but am really unsure of whether I write well. This is a somewhat faithful version of what I keep in my paper diaries. And yes, I DO write my diaries MANUALLY. I've already filled up thirty-three Papemelroti notebooks, and am on my thirty-four. I love to eat, and boy, my diet sure can pack the pounds on even Palito. I now am planning to reduce weight, but will execute after the hell weeks are over. :D Am planning to shift to either BS Economics or BS Statistics. Wish me luck! :D
