Dear Eunice Zuleika,Here is your single's love horoscope for Thursday, July 12:

You're extra in touch with feelings now, both your own and those of the people around you. It all makes you a little more tenderhearted, in a really wonderful way. Open up and let the emotions flow.

Today is such a Light Day

I have the time to go to the lib and update everything because I am not on deck in Torts, I read as far as possible for Tax and of course our Labor prof didn't go to class the last time so I basically "studied" what's gonna be discussed today.

I got to eat free ice cream today... Yay! What great timing.

I still hope for the best. Thanks Jan for calling, Patty and Rach for staying.

David, Arman and Pepe for the comic relief. Nect time talaga, sa Tondo naman. Haha.

Mahirap...

... sabihin ang mga bagay na sa tingin mo di naman makakabuti pa sa sitwasyon.
... tapusin ang mga bagay na di naman nagsimula.
... simulan ang mga bagay na di mo alam kung paano matatapos.
... umiyak sahil sa mga bagay na di mo alam kung karapat-dapat ba.
... kung nag-umpisang walang problema at natuto kang maniwala para lang malaman na meron lang palang WALA sa paniwala.
... maglakad-lakad kung may posibilidad na madapa at magkasugat ng di mo namamalayan.
... maging masaya kung malulungkot ka din pala.
... magdesisyon at malaman na nagkamali ka.
... maging bahagi ng isang komedya.

Still I Rise

Maya Angelou

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise.

Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don't you take it awful hard
'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines
Diggin' in my own back yard.

You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise.

Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I've got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?

Out of the huts of history's shame
I rise
Up from a past that's rooted in pain
I rise
I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.

Back in the Ballgame

My close friend from a long time ago, Carlo, texted me today saying that he misses me. I should really make it a habit to catch up with friends that I haven't seen for a long time, if only so I can take my mind off law school and anything related to it.

The stress is beginning to catch up on me, for the nth time, and the sad part is... everyone around me is stressed too. Which leaves me with the brilliant idea of finding emotional support from people who are in the OUTSIDE WORLD [meaning, outside law school].

I really should start "bumping into people" again. I miss the social butterfly in me.

Buntong-hininga.

Sabi ni Sarj, "we should get payong."

ang sabi ko naman, "saan nakakabili ng payong na pipigilan ka mabasa ng sarili mong luha?"

Ok fine. What the Heck..

Horoscope for today:

What the heck -- might as well, right? Give a new social opportunity or a
new certain someone a whirl. Saying yes doesn't commit you forever, and it
signals to the universe that you're willing to try.

SUCCESSION Moments

Prof: [blah blah blah blah about BAKEKONG...] Wait, why am I talking about

Prof: [talking about CORRELATIVE NUMBERING in WILLS] It could Alpha, Beta,
Charlie, Delta.. Echo. Teka nasan un Echo?
Class: [confused look]
Prof: Edi ayun na, sumama kay HEART!

Alam ko valid naman ang question, pero nakakatawa lang kasi e. Tinanong nya kung san galing ang Lumpia in english. Un na.

I Love the Rain [na pala]

I know, kakasulat ko lang ng isang mahabang-mahabang entry about my not liking the rain but something happened a few minutes ago to make me change my mind...

I was about to go to Starbucks when I was welcomed by the fury of the rain and while I was contemplating on whether I should stay in school or swing it [meaning, magpakabasa sa ulan] over a stick of yosi, something kakilig-kilig happened. This guy I've been crushing on back in the day emerged in front of me.

Euns: I know you.
Guy: Yeah.
Euns: YFC right?
Guy: Yup.
EUns: I'm sorry, what's your name again?
Guy: Anthony.
Euns: Oh my God, you went to my debut a few years ago!
Guy: Yup... WHat's your name again?
Euns: Euuuuunice. [this is how I introduce myself when I'm in the presence of sosyal people]
Guy: What're you taking up? Law?
EUns: Yeah, you? MBA?
Guy: Yeah...
Euns: Your classes just started?
Guy: This week.
Euns: Great.
Guy: What year are you in?
Euns: Third.
Guy: Wow, that's like 2 more years and you're a lawyer...
Euns: I knoooow. Who would've thought diba? Anyway, I'll see you around.
Guy: Aight. Bye.
[naiwan si Eunice na nakangiti]

Chenes! Checked his blog. IN A RELATIONSHIP. Pakshet. What did I expect diba?

Anyway, I'm blogging because there's nothing else to do. The rain is still pouring like there's no tomorrow.
