A CEREBRAL POST IN A LONG TIME
Okay! After a hiatus of something cerebral (I had to just post anything that came my Friendster way), I now am here with something philosophical on my mind. I am back!
Though the money isn't (and sad since it is a prerequisite for distilled thoughts), I have decided to write AS IF I WROTE IN A JOURNAL. And so here.
The weekend was uneventful, with the exception of the discovery of the fact that THE 27th NOTEBOOK IS MISSING. Funny, but my main mode of writing is not E-based. It is through these Papemelroti notebooks that I vent out my feelings. Well, most of them. I spare the readers of my electronic journals the sad, the morose, and the ugly. It is a small step forward to discipline, and it works for me. No matter that I write mostly mushy things or depressed things or highly political and economic things. I just keep on writing everyday even if the content is trash because that is one way to go about the habit and practice of writing.
I started the journals in my fourth year of high school, back when Papa was just four months six feet under. To relieve myself of depression, I started buying some Papemelroti notebooks at the SM North with the stipends I got from the government. It pays to be a science scholar. Wahaha. :P
Come to think of it, that was the time I got addicted to malling. Haha. Four years in Pisay and only in my fourth year did I get used to the idea of walking around SM North. And to think it was only walking distance from the school. :D
Now I am filling up my 27th, I am just depressed that I misplaced it. Oh goodness...
Till here for now. ^_^Still have an Econ class to catch up! ~sam

ARTICLE STOLEN FROM RIA-SENSEI
SAYAW NA WALANG MUSIKA
Strange ba? Medyo. Paano ka naman sasayaw nang hindi naririnig ang tugtog, o ang beat, o ang rhythm?
Kagabi, may naabutan akong maigsing feature tungkol sa mga deaf/mute dancers sa China. At ako ay na-amaze. Tumayo ang mga balahibo ko habang pinapanood sila. Sa TV pa lang yan.
Imagine, hindi nila kailangang marinig ang music para sumabay dito.
Naalala ko tuloy yung description sa isang sayaw sa Kontra-Gapi. "sayaw na naririnig at musikang nakikita".
Nararamdaman nila ito. Yung pulso ng rhythm. Halimbawa, lumalapit sila speaker para maramdaman yung beat. Para madali nilang sabayan.
Yung pinakita nilang performace kahapon ay tungkol sa Thousand-hand Bodhisattva.

Ang galing-galing talaga. Napaka-inspiring.
Sana makapanood ako ng show nila, Live.

SOMETHING TO SMILE ABOUT
Hinding-hindi ko makakalimutan ang mga mumunti
ngunit ginintuang butil ng payo na nakuha ko sa
aking mga magulang:
1. Si Inay, tinuruan niya ako HOW TO
APPRECIATE A
JOB WELL DONE.Crazy "Kung kayong dalawa ay
magpapatayan, doon kayo sa labas! Mga leche
kayo,
kalilinis ko lang ng bahay."
2. Natuto ako ng RELIGION kay Itay. "Kapag yang
mantsa di natanggal sa carpet, magdasal ka na!"
3.Kay Inay ako natuto ng LOGIC. "Kaya ganyan,
dahil sinabi ko."
4. At kay Inay pa rin ako natuto MORE LOGIC.
"Kapag ikaw ay nalaglag diyan sa bubong, ako lang
magisa ang manonood ng sine."
5. Si Inay din ang nagturo sa akin kung ano ang
ibig sabihi ng IRONY. "Sige ngumalngal ka pa at
bibigyan talaga kita ng iiyakan mo!"
6. Si Inay ang nagpaliwanag sa akin kung ano ang
CONTORTIONISM. "Tingnan mo nga yang dumi sa
likod
ng leeg mo, tignan mo!!!"
7. Si Itay ang nagpaliwanag sa akin kung anong
ibig sabihin ng STAMINA. "Wag kang tatayo diyan
hangga't di mo natatapos yang lahat ng pagkain
mo!"
8. At si Inay ang nagturo sa a! min kung ano ang
WEATHER. "Lintek talaga kayo, ano ba itong
kuwarto
nyong magkapatid, parang dinaanan ng bagyo!"
9. Ganito ang paliwanag sa akin ni Inay tungkol sa
CIRCLE OF LIFE: "Malandi kang bata ka, iniluwal
kita sa mundong ito, maari rin kitang alisin sa
mundong ito."
10. Kay Itay ako natuto kung ano ang BEHAVIOR
MODIFICATION. "Tumigil ka nga diyan! Huwag
kang
mag-inarte na parang Nanay mo!"
11. Si Inay naman ang nagturo kung anong ibig
sabihin ng GENETICS. "Nagmana ka ngang talaga
sa
ama mong walanghiya!"
12. Si Inay naman ang nagpaliwanag sa amin kung
anong ibig sabihin ng ENVY. "Maraming mga
batang
ulila sa magulang, di ba kayo nagpapasalamat at
mayroon kayong magulang na tulad namin?"
13. Si Itay naman ang nagturo sa akin ng
ANTICIPATION. "Sige kang bata ka, hintayin mong
makarating tayo sa bahay!"
14. At si Itay pa rin ang nagturo kay Kuya kung
anong ibig sabihin ng RECEIVING. "Uupakan kita
pagdating natin sa bahay!"
15. Si Inay naman ang nagturo sa akin kung ano
ang
HUMOR. "Kapag naputol yang mga paa mo ng
pinaglalaruan mong lawnmower, wag na wag kang
tatakbo sa akin at lulumpuhin kita!"
16. At ang pinakamahalaga sa lahat, natutunan ko
kina Inay at Itay kung ano ang JUSTICE. "! Isang
araw magkakaroon ka rin ng anak,tiyak maging
katulad mo at magiging pasakit din sa ulo!"
:D

A LITTLE BIT OF MADNESS
And a little bit of madness it will be. I am now applying for membership in two orgs right now: UP Tomo-kai and UP MCO.
I don't know if I can't still hold on to application process for the UP MCO. I submitted a so-so autobio, and I heard from m buddy there that they graded me low. Of all the blows people can deal me, the one that hits my self esteem will get through my defenses. Dammit, I withstood the UJP application process JUST BECAUSE THEY CHOSE NOT TO STRIKE ME WHERE IT HURTS. And now I don't know whether to continue. Just because I am NOT creative, NOT industrious, and NOT one to withstand pain. Haha. So why did I join orgs anyway?
I myself do not know.
As for UP Tomo-kai, things have not yet heated up. I still am lax about things, but at least I've tried to memorize the Jikoshoukai (Self-Introduction). Now I am preparing for Christmas party tomorrow. ^_^
Oh well...

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
