The Law and Economics of Lust, Love and Life

Yeah, yeah I get it.

My skirt got stuck in my bag's zipper at the exact moment that I was called to recite for Sales.

I get it. I am fate's Guinea Pig. The gods are trying to perfect a REALITY TV Show Prototype. I am the master of DID THAT JUST HAPPEN?!'s

Note to Self:

Dont stare, your vision's pretty fucked up Euns... people actually can see that you're staring. Blurriness of eyesight is not contagious. Staring into someone else's eyes is actually conducive to an awkward STARE FEST which would freak your crush out. Unless he stared at you first. In that case, GO FOR THE GOLD!

Awwwww Moment:
Atty Abano on his HEART CONDITION:

My heart's perfectly fine. I am still so much in love with my wife.

Aha! Moment:

The new golden rule is... Do unto others fast before they do unto you. -Atty Abano

Ganun?! Sabagay... Moment:

[Paopao's checking his hand out]
Euns: Paopao, what are you doing?
Pao: Look at my hands. Kita na un buto. Patingin ng kamay mo.
[Euns hold out her hand]
Pao: Di pa kita, mataba ka kasi e.
Euns: Di ka man lang nag-isip a. Parang hinintay mo lang ipakita un kamay ko para masabi mo un... [tawa]

You Don't Have a Boyfriend Because You are Too Busy

While a relationship sounds nice, you're strapped for time
Whether you're legitimately busy or just making excuses...
... You don't give men enough of your time.
As nice as "instant love" would be, there's just no such thing.

Why Don't You Have a Boyfriend?

Men See You As Choosy

Men notice you light years before you notice them
You take a selective approach to dating, and you can afford to be picky
You aren't looking for a quick flirt - but a memorable encounter
It may take men a while to ask you out, but it's worth the wait

How Do Men See You?

You Are a Party Girl!

You give Paris Hilton and Tara Reid a run for their money
(Who knows? You've probably even run into them at a club or two)
While you do have fun - relax a little every so often
All those drinks do nothing for your looks - or your bank account

Are You a Party Girl?

You're Confident...Sometimes

You can seem confident when the occasion calls for it
But inside you may be experiencing a bit of self doubt
A little more inner confidence could take you far...
And convince others that you're as confident as you try to seem

Are You Confident?

What Your Pink Outfit Means

Unsurprisingly, you are very sweet and cute.
But you're also a bit of a tease - and not that innocent.
Shy but sexy, you're an alluring mix of contradictions.

Designer match: BCBG

Signature accessory: Tortoise shell sunglasses

What Does Your Favorite Outfit Say About You?

You Are Not a Tease

You definitely know how to flirt, but you usually choose not to.
You're not the type of girl who leads guys on - and men appreciate that.
Your charms and sexiness are saved for the one guy you're into...
And for that, he digs you even more!

Are You a Tease?

You Should Date An Italian!

You love for old fashioned romance, with an old fashioned guy
An Italian guy is the perfect candidate to be your prince charming
If your head doesn't spin enough, just down another espresso with him
Invest in a motorcycle helmet - and some carb blocker for all that pasta!

Which Foreign Guy Should You Date?

Your Nail Polish Color is Pink

How you're unique: You're girly without being high maintenance

Why your style rocks: You're the perfect blend of stylish, preppy, and cute

What this color says about you: "I am secure enough not to follow every trend"

What Color Nail Polish Best Fits You?

Sharing...walang climax.

I did great in my Crim Law midterms [it's about time!], in fact, i think i got the highest score. What does this mean? It just means that "Practice makes perfect" and it pays to believe in the saying, "Flunk it badly once shame on my luck, flunk it badly twice shame on me." hehe.

I will never ever ever not study for a class especially if i am on deck. Since nothing is impossible, the chance that i wont get called is as big as the possibility of the Philippines being politically stable. There was a shootout today! From an average of about 10 per meeting, 16 were called to recite. Raid! Raid!

It's true, only the people you care about can make you feel disappointed. The fact that you care is the same thing that aggravates your disappointment. The moment you stop giving a damn is the same moment that you start accepting. It's negative acceptance. More like giving up, actually.

By the way, Powerplant got flooded last Friday. It was like seeing IRONY in motion. Flood and wealth simply don't blend well. My friends got pictures and well, when I tried to get some for myself, this guard actually stopped Mel and me from taking them. Wanna know what's more odd? Flood and wealth and Melanie Marquez. It's just too much of a hoolabaloo for me. Entertainment overload, i guess.

I watched Crazy for You when I got home. The new soap opera starring Toni Gonazaga and Luis Manzano. As my friend, Sandi pointed out in her Bulletin Board post, I dont see why in as much as they want to capture the reality in an OFW's life, Toni had to be fully-made up with her hair curled to perfection. She's too gorgeous to be an OFW. Too glamourous. I am not really the right person to quote on this topic, I'd trade fashion for comfort without blinking but uhmm, how can you be not oily when you're cleaning a whole MANSION? Whatever the answer is, i want her makeup. No smudge and not oily. Something I havent been described with in months.

Lastly, what would you call Reclusion Perpatua? BADING [according to Mr. Choi, my crim classmate] Why? Because accdg to our prof, those with PERIOD [divisible penalty] are women and Death is a guy... since Reclusion Perpatua is indivisible but with period, it's somewhere in between. Talk about analogy. Good enough. It's just so refreshing to hear Mr. Choi blurt out BADING [he's Korean by the way]. There is nothing politically incorrect in this entry. I'm just sharing.

WALANG CLIMAX.

Guys Like That You're Charming

You're the girl most guys can't get out of their heads
Even if they met you on a bad hair day :-)
You just seem to "click" with everyone you meet
So even if a guy forgets about you for a second... his friends haven't!

What Do Guys Like About You?

One for the Road

If there's one thing I learned in life, it's the fact that there may be times when you look at yourself and you see someone so inadequate, someone so unworthy that you end up feeling sure that you will end up lonely or that you are in fact lonely... but amidst all these YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT FOR AT LEAST ONE PERSON, YOU ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH.

It's not faith, it's not wishful thinking, it's for survival. You cannot dwell on pity nor of discontent because sooner or later, something worse will happen and you will end up more depressed than before or more pitiful or more discontented.

WE ALL ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH. I know I am.

I HEART ATENEO LAW T-SHIRT DAY

Yes, today is the day that I denied myself of any preppiness I have and I defied Ateneo Law's dresscode by wearing [ironically!] the I HEART ATENEO LAW shirt. It kind of got a lot of people offguard because well, wearing a TSHIRT is just not one of the many things that you wouldnt normally associate to the drama queen that is me. It's fun, besides the fact that I can be my "barubal" self, I got to break the rules [subtly, of course!] Let's go to the fun part,, which is like the ORDINARY COURSE OF BUSINESS in the PARTNERSHIP that is EUnice and this blog.

After our REALLY INTERESTING apparent and actual quiz in partnership, we waited at the TITANIC [that part of the 3rd floor which resembles, SURPRISE! The TITANIC]. Kiboy and Pepe were teasing each other...

Kiboy: Pasensya ka na Pepe ha, mahirap lang kasi ako e.
Pepe: Ayos a.
Kiboy: Yan ang hirap sa mga mayayaman e...
Chris: Bakit?

We just laughed our asses off because Chris didnt actually realize how wrong it sounded. It was like a voluntary admission of guilt [the offense was her being mayaman] but she actually meant "Bakit, ano ang problema sa kanila?" but of course we let that slip and just focused on the fact that she actually instinctively answered, "Bakit?" Oh well... Laughtrip parin.

To be continued... [gotta go to Mass]

non-LOVELIFE

From my last entry, i got into a conversation about how important it is for me to see my crush to sustain whatever liking or desire or passion i have for him. What I wasnt able to narrate was the fact that while I was actually doing my CRUSH LITANY / MONOLOGUE he emerged from the heavens, or from hell or ok fine, from his room. Sabi nga ni Ana, it's GOd's way of saying... "Eunice, wag kang bibitaw. Patience is a virtue at basta maniwala ka dadating din sya." And all i could say way, "Yeah right Euns. You wish." But seriously, even my non-love life [in celebration of non-boyfriends, non-girlfriends, non-lovers and non-friends, hehehe] is complicated because after I sort of decided that I wont dwell on his being cute anymore, I bumped into him TODAY a lot of times. WHat's the point of this whole entry? I just wanna rant that my life's sooo twisted even the stupid things are sooooooo "WHAT THE F AND WHY THE F IS IT HAPPENING-ish" [shift to bimbo language intentional].

Speaking of non-love lives... I saw Mel today all alone... staring at emptiness and [drumroll please!] SMILING. It's kind of hard to describe but it's the "my crush is soo cute, and he's perfect, and i think i love him" SMILE. Creepy. I had to call her attention and stop her before somebody else sees her.

Since this entry's theme is L-O-V-E...

*Eunice looks at Hazel, raises her eyebrows, half-smile

.... SCORE!!! Hazel approached us with her unusually sweet/ tweetums smile and said, "First conversation." I swear I almost heard the song "PERFECT COMBINATION" play in the background.

Update on the Ana - Pepe love team, I seriously asked Pepe if they will really end up together eventually and he said YES. WITHOUT HESITATION. Therefore, Ana... you're future's gonna be interesting. Yihee.

But the ULTIMATE non-LOVELIFE of 'em all involves SUPERMAN and his LOIS LANE. It happened twice guys, i think even Atty Mercado sensed the LOVE between these two people. You guessed it right, it's ARMAN and CES. Mr and Ms Love and Affection. THe couple who will continue to be together even after DUE PRESENTMENT and DISCHARGE of their INSTRUMENTS. They are THE COUPLE... Move over SPIDERMAN and MJ [hmm, metaphor lang ha?] here comes the FABULOUS SUPERMAN and LOIS tandem. Hehe, Ces... PEACE.

FREE TIME = LAGLAGAN TIME

Deo: Ano ang pangalan ng kamag-anak ni Negotiable Instrument?
Class: Ano? [tonong Ang TV]
Deo: REASONABLE TIME.
CLASS: [awkward silence]
Deo: Kasi diba, it's RELATIVE?
[Ooooha, oooha, ooha!]
---------------------
Noli: Guys announcement... [nakuha ang attention ng class] Si Lea Abutan nagtake ng pregnancy test, positive.
[natawa na lang ang class dahil nga si Lea ay isang INOSENTENT BATA]
---------------------
Ana: [Nagkwento ng sobrang madmaing details]
Eunice: Wala nanaman climax?
Ces: Dapat siguro umatttend ka ng convention para jan...
Eunice: Tama CLIMAX Convention. [napaisip] Err, ano ang plural ng climax?
[after tanungin lahat ng tao, kahit na ang aming resident English Professor di nasagot]
Eunice: Alam ko na kung bakit wala masyado nakakaalam ng plural ng climax.
ANa: Bakit?
Eunice: Kasi usually ONCE lang nangyayari un e.
Patty: Unless may ROund 2.
Eunice: Ano ba.. short story kaya ang pinag-uusapan. [painosente effect]
--------------------
Eunice: Sa tingin ko di ko na sya crush. Kasi di ko na siya nakikita e.
Kibs: Porke't di mo na nakikita di mo na crush?!
Eunice: Oo kaya, kasi nga crush lang di naman love no? Fleeting sya. SUPERFICIAL! Kung di ko pa nakikita ano pa un diba? Di na nagli-linger.
Kibs: Tama rin.
--------------------
Chiara: Guys, ang prject natin dapat before matapos ang sem mahanapan natin ng girlfriend si Paopao. May qualifications ba Pao?
Paopao: Dapat kapareho ko.
Deo: Naka-dress tapos naka-rubber shoes?
--------------------
Deo: Hoy Lea Abutan nakita ka namin sa Powerplant... Kumakain ka ng HOTDOG?! Ikaw din Shelly, nagh-hotdog karin! Nakatalikod pa nga kayo nun e...
[di dapat nakakatawa e, pero dahil madumi mag-isip ang mga tao, therefore natawa parin kami]

TIME FOR MYSELF... my point exactly.

Dear Eunice,
Here is your single's love horoscope
for Wednesday, September 6:

Opposing celestial influences play with your emotions, but you're tired of having your heart be the object in a tug-of-war. Decide to lay down arms and declare a truce. You need time for yourself. Take it.

Men See You As: An Attainable Challenge

You know how to make your man crave more of you
But you also know when to show some interest back
You're good at keeping your guy guessing
And over time, you'll let him know how you really feel

Are You a Challenge?

BIZARRE LOVE TRIANGLE

Date of Birth: 14/05

Your sense of self may be challenged today, Eunice, and you might have trouble keeping your seat during the joust. Keep in mind that the way others see you isn't necessarily who you really are. Don't feel like you have to change your direction to please anyone. Ultimately, your only responsibility is to yourself. Bizarre events are apt to spring up, asking you to change your way of thinking.

Ohh, BIZARRE EVENTS? I'm assuming in the REAL WORLD BIZARRE EVENTS would be synonymous to the NORMAL EVENTS in MY LIFE and if in the REAL WORLD i will be experiencing BIZARRE EVENTS then logically speaking, my day'll be perfectly normal.

Sabi nga nila, ako ang gauge if something's gonna happen sa class. Yesterday I decided to skip For Med, voila! He checked the attendance. Yes people, this is the same professor who never checked the attendance until yesterday. Therefore, I vow never to absent myself from class unless i want my classmates to suffer, hehe.

I was waiting for the update on our SALES class today and it turned out, I DIDNT RECEIVE the TEXT MESSAGE, AGAIN! Buti na lang I texted Anton and Patty... Oh well. Malas lang siguro talaga.

Nasan un LOVE TRIANGLE part? Wala lang, I was just gonna type BIZARRE but then I remembered the song, so there.

Hay Love.

Eunice, A Secret Agent is the man of your dreams

Mystery and intrigue — it's not just for action-adventure movies. It's what you are looking for in life and love. From spontaneous weekend getaways to notes stuck in your jean pockets, you love being surprised and appreciate the extra thought and effort that goes into making it happen.

That's why a secret agent could steal your heart — he's got what it takes to change the world, but he's not about to go around shouting about it. But don't worry, your secret's safe with us. Shhhh.

Quotes from The Devil Wears Prada

Miranda Priestly: The details of your incompetence do not interest me.

Miranda Priestly: I don't understand why it's so difficult to confirm an appointment.
Emily: I know, I'm so sorry, Miranda. I actually did confirm...
Miranda Priestly: The details of your incompetance do not interest me. Tell Simone I'm not going to prove that girl she sent me for the Brazilian layout. I asked for clean, athletic, smiling; she sent me dirty, tired and paunchy. And RSVP yes to Michael Kors' party, I want the driver to drop me off at 9.30 and pick me up at 9.45 sharp. Then call Natalie at Gloria's Foods and tell her no, for the 40th time, no, I don't want dacquoise, I want tortes filled with warm rhubarb compote. Then call my ex-husband and remind him that the parent/teacher conference at Dalton is tonight. Then call my husband. Ask him to please meet me for dinner at that place I went to with Masima. Also, tell Richard I saw all the pictures that he sent for that feature on the female paratroopers and they're all so deeply unattractive. Is it impossible to find a lovely, slender, female paratrooper? Am I reaching for the stars here? Not really. Also I need to see all the things that Nigel has pulled for Gwyneth's second cover.
[seeing Andy]
Miranda Priestly: Who is that?

Nigel: You bet your size 6 ass!

Andy Sachs: [after Emily explained to her no to go upstairs in Miranda's house] I went upstairs.
Emily: [Angry] You went upstairs? Why didn't you just crawl into bed with her and have her read you a bedtime story?

Miranda Priestly: Yes, move at a glacial pace. You know how that thrills me.

Andy Sachs: Doesn't anybody eat around here?
Nigel: Not since two is the new four and zero is the new two.
Andy Sachs: Well, I'm a six...
Nigel: Aha, the new fourteen.

Emily: It's no fair though, I mean you eat carbs!

Emily: Andrea, Runway is fashion magazine, an interest in fashion is crucial.
Andy Sachs: What makes you think I'm not interested in fashion?

Miranda Priestly: [last lines]
Miranda Priestly: Go!

Nigel: You are in desperate need of Chanel.

Emily: [to Andy] You sold your soul to the devil when you put on your first pair of Jimmy Choo's!

[rushing out the door to accomplish an impossible task for Miranda]
Andy Sachs: Wish me luck!
Emily: No. Shan't.

Miranda Priestly: Bore someone else with your questions.

Miranda Priestly: I need 15 skirts from Calvin Klein...
Andy Sachs: what kind of skirts?
Miranda Priestly: ...please bore someone else with your... questions.

Andy Sachs: What if I don't want this?
Miranda Priestly: Oh don't be silly, EVERYONE wants this. Everyone wants to be *us*

Emily: A million girls would kill for this job.

Miranda Priestly: ...You have no sense of fashion...
Andy Sachs: I think that depends on...
Miranda Priestly: No, no, that wasn't a question.

Nate: I don't care if you were pole-dancing, as long as you did it with some integrety!

Andy Sachs: You look so skinny!
Emily: Really? Thanks. I'm on this new diet for Paris. I don't eat anything... and then when I feel like I'm about to faint, I eat a cube of cheese.

James Holt: [Andy approaches at the party to get the top secret dress] So you're the new Emily.

Miranda Priestly: [to Andy] Emily... Emily... Emily...
Nigel: [to Andy] She means you.

Emily: I'm one stomach flu away from reaching my goal weight.

[Andy is on the phone taking a message]
Andy Sachs: Can you spell 'Gabbana'?
[person on the other line hangs up]
Andy Sachs: I guess not...

[At the "Urban Jungle" fashion shoot, talking to Andy]
Nigel: Don't make me feed you to one of the models.

[repeated line]
Miranda Priestly: That's all.

Andy Sachs: [seeing Nigel with a black gown] I love that! Will that fit me?
Nigel: A little Crisco and some fishing wire and we'll be in business.

Lilly: [stroking a Mark Jacobs bag] And it's pretty!

Nigel: Other girls dream of working here. You merely deign.

Christian Thompson: Je suis tres désolé.
Andy Sachs: You're not désolé.

Nigel: [talking about Andy] Who is this *sad* little person? Are we doing a before-and-after piece I don't know about?

Miranda Priestly: Find me that piece of paper I had in my hand yesterday morning.

Doug: Python's hot right now!
