Come on!

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

Oh come on... I know i've been wishing for someone to make me laugh. But not this joke. Rez Cortez for President? Who's laughing?

Translucence

These running lights are disciplined by her unforgiving cries. The observer blinks and intermittently sees the future through the exhaustive lies. Only the truth can pass through her translucent eyes.

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?

Today's Forecast

You don't generally relish interruptions in your routine, but one that happens now could be a very good thing indeed. Be ready to drop everything and welcome it with open arms.

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.

Humanda Ka!

"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!

--------------------------

Btw, i spent a few hours in Seattle's Best to read my assigned cases in Legal Profession and God's way of distracting a self-confessed Jologs like me is through... (drumroll please!)

CELEBRITY SIGHTINGS

1. Assunta de Rossi - uhmm ok. the more distracting part was the way the guards pretended not to care when in fact, they stopped inspecting the bags of the people entering Powerplant.

2. Dyan Castillejo - nice bod. bitter ocampo ako.

3. Nasaan Ka Man Cast [Claudine Barreto, Diether Ocampo, GLoria Diaz and JERICHO ROSALES...] ---- Echo, Echo... I'm drooling, must stop hyperventilating... Echo.. take me home..

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...


Washroom
Blockmate: Nakikita mo ba ang sarili mo na may karelasyon sa lawschool?
Jersee: Oo naman! (ng walang pag-aatubili).. pero feeling ko isa syang malaking distraction.. so di rin pala ko sure. (ano ba talaga?!)

Jollibee: Mga Senyales at Manifestations ng Pag-ibig
Usapang Pepe at ang kanyang gf.
Usapang selosan kasama si Pao at Deo.
Usapang pagkakaibigan at lihim kasama si Noli at Patty.
Usapang crush at kawalan nito.
Usapang kawalan ng seryosong relasyon.
Usapang pag-ibig na nakakakilig.

Pag-ibig.. masdan ang ginawa mo.

Ok, back to work. Read, Read, read.

Solid!

i did study.
i did read the cases.
i did my best.
therefore...

INTRO TO LAW... wag pasaway!


What are the chances that i wouldnt be called the entire week to recite for my Intro to Law class? I spent hours of reading and stressing myself out for uhmm, almost nothin. hehe. Yeah, exaggeration. I did learn a lot and i did enjoy studyin with my SOLID! study group. Happy.

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!)

Pitt-Jolie Flick

Watched Mr. and Mrs. Smith tonight. Hmm, nothin new 'bout it. Didnt enjoy the flick that much. Next in my list, Sin City.

Seryoso.

The country's soooo damn in trouble. GMA's in deep shit. I am beginnin to lose faith in Filipinos. (not that it matters) But if i am losing faith, i can just imagine how a lot have lost it a long time ago. Im an optimist in a way, and now that im beginnin to see doom, i dunno what's gonna be next.

Waiting for My Color...

Amidst the bursts of green
I long for the biting brown
Stemmed bruises on white
thin black strips swaying
pink isnt cheerful
silver isnt glam
why dont they smile?
must be the music.

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.

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
