Vocab Mula sa Hikab...

due to my lethal boredom, i wrote this article while pretending to listen to my prof in one of my classes today...
---------------------

1] happenings - a combi of happy + happen + penny in the present progressive form. It is the pursuit of satisfaction which will only be achieved if the three requisites mentioned are attendant.

2] chillax - combi of the uber cool word "CHILL" and that uber calming word "RELAX". It is used to connote that leisurely moment of forgettin all the things that are stressful.

3] impossible cry - from the legal concept impossible crime which pertains to crimes which are inherently impossible to accomplish. It is the moment where someone cries due to a nonexistent cause or an undeserving cause [in the case of MEN who are always "not there"]

4] malicious miss cheap - a totally murder-worthy whore who exudes malice and succumbs to extremely cheap ways.

5] democrushy - the act of demonstrating one's admiration for a crush. It's usually spontaneous and exercised with lack of discernment.

6] Lovey-dovey - a relationship between people who have plans of not staying in the relationship permanently. It's also synonymous to having "prescription / expiration dates". It's when one or both parties are planning to "fly" away from the other.

7] ballyntine - "akala mo it's enough, pero hindi! hindi! hindi!"

STAMP ART

Life's one big mail with no "return address" and an unknown destination. Its value is in a way quantified through its stamp. The stamp's a label of how much the sender spent [effort exerted] to jumpstart the mail's journey. The "stamp" gets licked or in a more civilized way, is wet by a sponge capable of absorbing the moisture that could make a number of stamps stick. What's that tongue's /sponge's counterpart in life? I say it's experience. Life reaps value through the stamps that gets stuck to every experience we battle to survive. If you get stamped, you are forever labeled. You may try to conceal a stamp that you aren't too proud of, but its existence never ceases to haunt you. It's unseen but it's felt. WE ALL ARE STAMPED!

Deep.. Deep.. Deep..

mister : it's war, jersee.kill the evil. see, i believe there is a happy counterpart of angsty.
Jersee: i will. and i'll see you on the other side.. after the smoke has been cleared aight?.
mister : speaking of which...wahahahahahahaha!! maybe after the smoke is DITCHED. hehehe
Jersee: right, right.. i miss really chattin w/ u. not the "hi hello to everyone fun fun fun" chat.
mister : that's the "me" i miss...i shut it up.for a long time
Jersee: may i ask y?
mister : it got dangerous to my personal priorities.
Jersee: uhmm,im not sure i totally understand but yeah, it's quite a valid reason. how did it "endanger" ur priorities? [tell me if i have to stop.haha]
mister : i honestly never thought radio would put me on a "celebrity" status. and there are harmful people who attach themselves to those pegged as "celebrities". these people are called "stalkers".i never wanted groupies, nor fuckmates, nor admirers. all i wanted was her admiration. and her admiration became complicated becasue of my status.
Jersee: we all have that one thing we want.. that's hardest to get.
mister : which i feel is a big deception, because i am still a nobody. just a loud dj. and that's it.
Jersee: unintended consequences, unforeseen results. sources of complications.
mister : an oily face would be a source of complications too... jsut felt like asying that, because my face is currently oily. how deep.
Jersee: and im laughin. thanks. i always find myself thankin people who make me smile or laugh. im forgettin it these past few weeks. and im tryin to find again that part of me who always feels thankful for the simplest things.
mister : forgetting is different from forsaking. i'm guilty of forsaking.damn.
Jersee: yeah, good point. i have to be more precise in my language too.hehe. forsakin... we all are guilty of this. the good news is, you KNOW and acknowledge it.
mister : the moment you realize it was your doing, you realize you can do something about it.
Jersee: exactly. but you have to make a decision first. it's easy to realize something and disregard it for convenience.
mister : better point.
Jersee: see, this is what i love about conversations. real ones. it's easy to talk... it's easy to ask for group hugs. but it's hard to establish a conversation that's worth rememberin.
mister : i love lightness.
Jersee: hmm, i dunno if i love lightness. there are times when i feel iv been laugin at life long enough. that it's time for me to keep my acts straight.

Jersee: Dad, bakit di mo naman sinabi na nakataas un skirt ko?
Daddy: Akala ko style un. Kaya pala nagtitinginan un ibang tao, akala ko nagagandahan sila sayo.
Jersee: Ayun.

God's Divine Plans...

At a fund raising dinner for a school that serves learning-disabled
children, the father of one of the school's students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all that attended.

After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question.

"Everything God does is done with perfection. Yet, my son Shay cannot learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do. Where is God's plan reflected in my son?"

The audience was stilled by the query. The father continued.

"I believe," the father answered, "that when God brings a child like Shay into the world, an opportunity to realize the Divine Plan presents itself and it comes in the way people treat that child."

Then, he told the following story:

Shay and his father had walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, "Do you think they will let me play?"

Shay's father knew that the boys would not want him on their team. But the father understood that if his son were allowed to play it would give him much-needed sense of belonging. Shay's father approached one of the boys on the field and asked if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance from his teammates. Getting none, he took matters into his own hands and said,

"We are losing by six runs, and the game is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him up to bat in the ninth inning."

In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. At the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the outfield. Although no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be on the field, grinning from ear to ear as his father waved to him from the stands. In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. Now, with two outs and the bases loaded, the potential
winning run was on base. Shay was scheduled to be the next at-bat. Would the team actually let Shay bat at this juncture and give away their chance to win the game?

Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible because Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.

However, as Shay stepped up to the plate, the pitcher moved a few steps to lob the ball in softly so Shay could at least be able to make contact. The first pitch came and Shay swung clumsily and missed.

The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball softly toward Shay. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball to the pitcher. The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and could easily have thrown the ball to the first baseman. Shay would have been out and that would have ended the game. Instead, the pitcher took the ball and threw it on a high arc to right field, far beyond reach of the first baseman.

Everyone started yelling, "Shay, run to first, run to first."

Never in his life had Shay ever made it to first base. He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled. Everyone yelled, "Run to second, run to second!"

By the time Shay was rounding first base, the right fielder had the ball. He could have thrown the ball to the second baseman for a tag. But the right fielder understood what the pitcher's intentions had been, so he threw the ball high and far over the third baseman's head. Shay ran towards second base as the runners ahead of him deliriously circled the bases towards home. As Shay reached second base, the opposing shortstop ran to him, turned him in the direction of third base, and shouted, "run to third!"

As Shay rounded third, the boys from both teams were screaming, "Shay, Run home!" Shay ran home, stepped on home plate and was cheered as the hero for hitting a "grand slam" and winning the game for his team.

"That day," said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, "the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of the Divine Plan into this world."

------------
A Pesonal Commentary:

I received this email today and i just couldnt help but pass the message of how perfect God's plans and creations are. Yeah, we sure experience a lot of ups and downs but if we just LET GO and LET GOD then things'll turn out more than fine in the long run.

There will be times when we feel so incomplete, so inadequate, so lost but it's all a part of the game. When we feel like there's nothing we can do, we must also start rejoicing, for it is in these times when we are most likely to experience how God works. Love moves in mysterious ways because love comes from God.

Anime: ano sabi?
Jersee: Ayun, sabi nya, he would have to kick himself if he didnt send me a message. tapos, shempre, i replied. tapos, ayun, parang you've got mail ang dramahan namin.
Anna Banana: Gwapo ba naman? anong hitsura?
Jersee: uhm, hindi ko alam eh.. kasi yung picture nya, biceps ang nakapost.
mamba: bakit biceps?
Jersee: hindi ko rin alam eh... pero maganda ang biceps nya. ayuuuun, kaya pala i keep on replying sa mga messages nya. ngayon, na pinpoint ko na.
Anna Banana: eh, baka naman mamya, kasing payat ni ___ yan.
Jersee: feeling ko nga hindi sya yun eh. biruin mo, kung attractive sha, eh di sana picture ng mukha nya ang nakapost.
Anime: oo nga. kung gwapo yun, di sana pinakita nya talaga ang mukha nya..
Anna Banana: eh bakit tayo? puro mukha naten ang nakalagay sa friendster naten. Ganun ba tayo ka attractive?
Jersee: Ah. dalawa lang yan eh. kung proud kang ipakita ang mukha mo sa friendster mo, it's either sobrang attractive ka, or nasobrahan ka lang sa confidence. yung sa atin, confidence yun.
Anna Banana: oo nga noh.
Tubby: aaah, so yun pala yun. dahil sa biceps...

YOU'VE GOT MAIL!

A GOOD CONVERSATION

hi, how are you eunice.. i had to drop you a message, i figured, if i didnt, i would eventually kick myself and ask whether you would've responded to my message.. so here it is.. ah friendster, on one hand, i think if friendster didnt exist id go up to you at a coffeeshop or even at a bar and say hi, get to know your name, and even get a decent conversation going.. but here we are, me doing all the talking, im going to shut up now, since you'll probably see my profile, i'll leave it at that..(trust me) im not such a prick after 5mins.. anyway, eunice, if your looking for a good conversation, write back, i would love to hear from you and get to know you..

cheers
j.

GOOD CONVERSATION? J'adore!

first of all, thanks for making me smile. ive been going through a really stressful week and yeah, a message from a stranger who wants to actually "converse" is one of the things that'll make me uhmm, my mind off lawschool. i must admit that the "if i didnt, i would eventually kick myself" line is a li'l too cheesy for me, it's both good and bad but it leans more to the "bad side" haha. i doubt that you'll dare approach and talk to me in a coffeeshop, i can be a li'l too intimidating and bitchy especially while battling with my thirst for solitude. i dunno how i can actually deduce the prick part in your profile, except for the neverending litany about your bein into women, (which i dont mind coz if you're into men then i might have to rethink of how i look in my profile, haha) your bein a prick wasnt in a way evident. conversations are great, so i wont say no if that's what ur askin of me. i must warn you though that u might have no idea of what you're gettin into. =P my "hollaback" msg's a li'l too long now, so if i may quote you "im going to shut up now".

til next time. ciao!~

RE: Good Conversation? Ja'dore

hey eunice, youre very welcome for letting me put that beautiful smile on your face..ooo so damn cheezy, but hey, thanx for hollering back kid!! well, what can i say, i checked your profile again, and this is what i got to say..Ed, i cant believe you watch ed, i use to watch ED, all the time, they eventually canceled the show, but it was such a feel good tv show, plus, who the hell in the right mind is an attorney at law, that practices in a bowling alley? but i loved, absolutely loved it..so now i've got to ask you in return, are you in the right mind to actually write back to me, you dont know what youre getting into!!haha..so you speak a lil french, well, let me bust a few lines, on the other hand, if i did you'd probably slap me so let me just shut up and wait for a reply..

au revoir
j.

IRONY

beautiful smile? oh come on, not another "line".=) Ed, i love its irony, i think life's one big irony anyway. yeah i do know what im gettin into, conversations right? hmm, french? nah, i just know a few "useful" lines. i can feel that uv been tryin to test if i mind your bein a self-confessed prick, well.. i do and i dont. for as long as u
wont ask me to have sex with you then we're ok. sorry if im too direct, i just wanna make sure that we both know what we're getting and not gettin into. that kiddo thing, i love .. u sound so Mr. Big in Sex and the City... it just helps that im soo into Carrie Bradshaw. haha.

hafta do some readin so im shuttin up too. btw, if u wanna get to know me more, u can always visit my blog.. http://eunicemonsod.blogspot.com ... and
leave a line or two in my shoutbox. i dunno, u might learn a lot of things about me there, u still have time to save yourself from the distraction that is Eunice. haha.
Ciao!

ONE MIND

hola seniorita..
you know its strange, actually, its cheezy, so i aint going to write it down.. but you know what i wanted to say before a thought passed my beautiful mind, is that, we've typed over 4000 characters, which means, i only know probably 4000 things about you through your tone of voice, the words you use, what you think, etc... i know, how weird i can get... well its gets even weirder, i love the fact that your direct, cuz im pretty straightforward as well.. first, the sex part, o my god, if i couldve messaged your earlier so i would've gotten a response sooner i wouldve..from my standpoint, im a guy, i would be lying to you if i told you that i emailed you strictly because i felt like typing, no dick, no sausage, no guy, however nice he maybe writes to a girl he doesnt know and not think about the 3 letter word.. but at the same time, i think your cool, and if i pushed the issue of sex, i would potentially lose a penpal who would give me an orgasmic conversation.. that does sound odd, but thats they way the message has been going...haha...anyway, i hope you had a wondeful weekend, and yes, if your still thinking what im thinking, lets not think about it..because we both know that youre here for the conversation, and im here to stick with the conversation as long as i can:)

salut
j.

4000 Characters and counting...

now we're talkin. literally. haha. i think it's always a good thing to start something on a clear note, i hate bein in the middle of things i dont wanna be in the middle of.. and im impressed bout the 4000 characters part, it's uhmm, a new way to say that we've been wasting soo much time writing these letters =p .. but seriously, i didnt ever doubt the "intent" to take things to the next level, just like what you said... guys are just all too predictable.. but it's all good i dont take it against u, thanks for bein honest coz if u said u didnt wanna have sex w/ me then il be hurt for your not findin me attractive or i wont believe u and il forever doubt ur intention. just kiddin. with respect to orgasmic conversations i'll pair that up with emotional nudity.. whatta combi huh? ;) so lemme ask u, what made u send me that first letter? just thought il ask. im sorry if i wanna indulge in the "gettin to know u" part coz i usually like knowin what the people i meet do and how they try to survive this oh-so-dramatic and ironic life. What are your idiosyncrasies? it's always easier to remember things that are obviously more interesting.

as always, my time for relaxation's totally limited. hafta go back to reading criminal liabilities, intent, motive and other stories that the revised penal code has to offer.

au revoir.

back to the FIRST LETTER.

ooo it was such a long time ago, 1 week would you say?..so back to the first letter, the first 1000 characters,the pathetic line to get your attention, im not doing to shabby considering the fact were almost reaching the 8000 character mark.. im trying to get your number, (yes) i said it, by the time i reach the 10,000 character mark.. so back to the question, why did i ever write to you to begin with.. like i said in the previous letter, to me, its not about the 3 letter word, if it happens, it happens, and if doesn't, it doesn't bother me at all simply because you cant force attraction.. no matter how characters i write, or how many responses you have, it comes down to comfort level.. so yes, im comfortable with telling you all these things perhaps cuz your a stranger, a person on the other end of a computer screen typing to me.. on the other hand, of course there is that hope, that one day, you'll need to destress yourself and i'll be there to pick you up and play a little game called boy meets girl.. (i know its sounds so cheezy, even erotic) but its not, cuz the issue is being in a comfortable level with another.. so that brings me to the 2nd part of this letter, of course there was an attraction, no guy wastes his time at this age to meet more friends that are girls, well that is a possibility between us since from the look of things, our conversatons could be just as stimulating than the physical aspects of the three letter word.. ok i got to go, have to eat lunch before work starts...

ciao,

-- this for me is the best of the YM messages tonight. It embodies my life in lawschool.

This afternoon, i wasnt able to answer completely my Persons prof's question and i felt really humiliated that i wanted to cry. THe thought that first came to my mind was that i didnt sleep for nothin. My prof thinks im a bimbo. But i figured that, "hey, everybody gets humiliated in law school. the worst thing that i can do is to wallow in pity for a single time that i felt like everything i prepared for was to no avail." If im gonna give up now, then it just reaffirms my weakness. I refuse to give in to my own belittling of my abilities. I have to fix my personal battles fast, i cant lose grip now.

Come on!

Kung marami ang nagsasabi na si Rez Cortez ang susunod na magiging pangulo, bakit natin pipigilan?

In Mourning...

Why?

Today, Cardinal Sin's journey has come to its end. It always feels so surreal when someone, or something you have grown to live with suddenly disappears or stops existing. The first thing that came to my mind when i woke up hearing the depressing news was that Cardinal Sin is irreplaceable. The role that he played in the Philippine society, though somewhat political, was undoubtedly of great importance. In the past, i would always find myself thinking of how the Church seems to forget that the Separation of the Church and State should always be followed. Cardinal Sin always made it a point to have an opinion. He never failed to remind the government that he, just like every Filipino, was watching the officials' moves despite the fact that he is being criticized all the way. When i was a kid, i was given the chance to meet the Cardinal and to kiss his ring. For me, it was a privilege, an opportunity that not everyone who wants to meet him is presented with. Until now, i think i'm one of the few who was graced with the opportunity to witness how he moved, how he talked and how even in that short glimpse on his life, he touched me and made me believe that God truly exists. He is a legacy. He is that irony in this life of apathy, after all, what's more ironic than being called Cardinal Sin?

Anecdote of the Day:

Sir Crim: So youre' saying that it's a crime?
Jersee: Sir, if it's stated in the revised penal code then it's a crime.. right Sir?
Sir Crim: Where in the penal code?
JErsee: Sir, in the Article 5 of the Revised Penal Code.. if the Ambassador has endangered National Security by saying disrepectful things 'bout a certain leader, then it's a crime especially if it violates the laws of nations.
Sir Crim: oh you wanna go there, what are these laws?
JErsee: (laughs) sir im just sure that a certain law prohibits disrespectful remarks against leaders of countries.
Sir Crim: ok, i'll look it up.
Jersee: sure sir.

"Lahat ng babangga ay magigiba!"

Yeah, this includes my professors in the Ateneo. Nothing can make me change my mind anymore. I wanna become a lawyer. I want it BADLY. I WANT IT DESPERATELY. I WANT IT.

Prof: Why do you wanna become a lawyer?
Jersee: I decided to become a lawyer the moment i realized that i couldnt become a ballerina.

And there is truth to this. Being a lawyer has been the only rainbow i've been chasing all my life. What if in the end, i realize that i've been chasing the wrong rainbow? That there's no pot of gold at the end of this colorful pursuit? I guess i'll have to find a new one... No regrets. This rainbow has at least showed me the colors that life has to offer. Drama,drama,drama.

I dont think my Crim prof is a true-blue terror. He doesnt make me nervous. It's either his being a "terror" professor is superficial or that i have evolved into a law student numbed by my intro to law experience. PErhaps my embarrassing myself through the years has proven to be effective in my preparation for my law studies. Im not really worried about effin-up during recits, we all make mistakes, what's more important's that i studied or at least tried to study. Let's get it on!

Usapang Single...

Part One: Search for Mr and Ms OrSem

Judge: Do you have a boyfriend?

Jersee: FOrtunately and unfortunately, NOPE.

Judge: Would it be ok with you to go into a relationship with him? (Sabay turo kay Anton)

[Segue: Anton's my blockmate, the victim of my shake-that-thing dance step who was unfortunate enough to be paired with me in the Search]

Jersee: (feeling Miss Universe, napaisip pa daw kunwari) Our question's not even intellectual. You're not takin us seriously. (Crowd laughs). Well, i dont think there's anything wrong with going into a relationship, may it be with someone in Lawschool or in rockwell or wherever. for as long as the feeling is mutual and we wont forget our priorities, then it's all good. But of course, he has to settle whatever it is that he has to settle (uhmm, like havin a true gf?) before we can take it to the next level.

(Ok, and that's the part where people applauded while i was thinkin.. "I didnt sound desperate right? and i didnt sound like i was actually toying with the idea of dating someone from lawschool? oh well..)

Part Two: First day of regular class...

Conversation for the day:

Daddy: Ang mga searches ba na ginagawa sa mall ay constitutional? Diba bawal invasion of privacy un?

Eunice: Daddy, the mere fact na we're going to the mall,ibig sabihin wina-wave na natin ang right natin. At ang bawal lang ay gov't ang nag-initiate ng search pero since ang megamall ay isang private extablishment, di sya unconstitutional.
(with a grin, hmmm.. was thinkin of the Valmonte case pati narin ang Malmsteadt at lahat ng mga cases na may searches na nangyari... yeah boy!)

Stemmed bruises on white
thin black strips swaying
pink isnt cheerful
silver isnt glam
why dont they smile?
must be the music.

Legally Bond...ed.

Ateneo School of Law Batch 2009 Section 1-C.. [today, the stairs... tomorrow, the courts.]

OrSem

Ok, when we talk about comfy clothes, it doesnt necessarily follow that it's something sporty right? Apparently, it's an incorrect interpretation of the instruction on my part. My idea of comfy clothes would include a stylish skirt, my white knitted top and my polka stilettos. What did i get? lotsa sticky grass and a noticeable pile o' mud under my stilettos for falling in line in Ateneo's Atrium. Yes, it rained. On my PERFECT DAY. so Legally blonde.

Welcome to Camp Ateneo. Right.

I met my section and they're all uhmm, interesting people. I had to humiliate myself by executing a "shake that thing dance step" while doing the "hi i'm _____ and i can ___" game. And the worse was yet to come... My section decided to make my attempt to change my image into a serious law stude to no avail when they chose me to be their representative for Mr. and Ms. OrSem. Oh come on! But Anton (my partner -in-crime) and i pulled it off, the goofy and crazy people that we are endured our minutes of fame/shame.

Then i was elected to be the class' ass't beadle... keep it comin'! haha.

waiting for that dreaded Intro to Law Caselist...

Intro to Law...

ive been studyin like a maniac the whole week.. a minimum of 5 hours a day.. i cant even go online to write anythin coz there's a lot to read. im enjoyin lawschool, and i dont regret goin to ateneo, but man! it's hard. shirking's not an option.

pero i dont worry that much bout men, they're just freakin all around me. hahaha... kaya lang walang time, lahat kami ARAL kung ARAL. and im not kiddin, im now an official GEEKOID.

my family misses me coz i dont go out of my room anymore... i told my friends that WE defintely SHOULD go out. kaya lang there's a back to school party that i think i should attend on saturday. or maybe i'll just sleep.

have to go back to work, lotsa cases to read. I MISS YOU ALL.

This song is dedicated to Dean Roy... for your consistent expression..
"Are you happy now? 'coz you're touching yourself.."

I TOUCH MYSELF
The Divinyls

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

Chorus:
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

You're the one who makes me happy honey
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine

I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you

Chorus

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

Chorus

I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you
I touch myself
Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah

Chorus
