Janey day on the 31st
July 31, 2008 – This is how my Thursday went on. I rushed going to school since my class is 1:30, I rode a taxi and paid 50 bucks since its already 1:15, only to realize I don’t have class. So I got too disappointed I needed some cheering up. I couldn’t find any close EDUC friend, as our next class is one thirty. So I went to Bob’s café alone, ordered some Saté Babé (READ: it’s pronounced as sat-eh Bob-e). Few minutes later, I received a text message from Janey, one of the nicest friend I ever had, asking for my whereabouts. So I invited her over, to have some coffee and to have someone to talk to about latest gossips. We had fraps and a strawberry crepe. It was fun catching up with each others lives. Oh! Before I forget, big ooohhhraah for my classmates (when I was still in the College of Nursing), who passed the Nursing Licensure Exam. *clap!*clap!*clap!*
So let me share to you some snaps I took during my sugar and caffeine rush.

At last! My meal is here.

Messy Equation of friendship
July 25, 2008 - Humid. Tiring. Utterly lazy day in La Salle. Days like this that would just make you go home and take a bath. Just one of the many detriments of living in a tropical country. so anyway, the whole point of the introduction is that, when days like this come I get demotivated to the 10th power. therefore, that very day - i skipped class. yes, i used the weather as an excuse. yes, i did it because 1) it's friday, anyway. 2) its tiring to look at the face of another tired student and 3) im gonna meet up with my bestie! hooray!!.. now shush. you ask too many questions just like my mom. (i love you mom :D)
so going back. i did meet up with my bestie for almost 7 years (yeah, im that patient when it comes to her abnormalities). we went to Robinson's, roam around, flirted (her fault), look for some unimaginable stuff, had fun at the toy store, check-out some laptops, went to a hardware shop and laugh and laugh and laugh like the picture below.
boo!
... then we got hungry, so we roam around again and saw an ice cream kiosk. its just another "american-like" ice cream shops. the usual four seater tables, a neon ice cream sign and the checkered apron of the waiters/waitresses. and i bet if they have enough space, they will surely add a car seat - the one you saw in old movies where protagonists feed themselves with spoonful of ice cream while they drown themselves with sweet nothings.
"the ingredients"
diin na to textmate ko man?
Actually, she wasnt really waiting for her textmate. she got tons of guys so no need to find one. its just that, in this picture she staring at her old flame. notice her lips? tempted. tempted. tempted. (hello Julius? hehehhe)
we got so bored we made decided to hook up Pong with Pang
See that dark blue cutie turtle? Rida gave this too me.. Hooray! She RARELY become normal and thoughtful, so im so touched..
here's a closer look of Pong (the dark blue turtle) and Pang (the light blue turtle)
mouth-watering menu
Chocolate Parfait
Finally! The parfait landed our table. This one cost 95 Php but i can assure you its worth it.
FACT: Parfait
(pär-f
)n.1. A dessert made of cream, eggs, sugar, and flavoring frozen together and served in a tall glass.
2. A dessert made of several layers of different flavors of ice cream or ices, variously garnished and served in a tall glass.

her sole purpose of taking this picture? evidence! Evidence that she will show to dearly beloved papa julius. ''pa hisa-hisa portion"

the messy equation of friendship
what is the messy equation of friendship? does it really have an equation, in order for it to survive? what does it take to endure all the obstacles and all the negative vibes of the surrounding? i believe that friendship is like cooking. it needs all the ingredients needed like trust, respect, and affection. then you mix this all together until lumps and bumps are dissolve. lacking one ingredient would be useless. for what is friendship without trust, without respect and without affection?
To my bestie:
For almost seven years now, i havent utter my words of thanks to you. Well let me take the chance to thank you for being one of the closest, most amazing, incredibly funny and hilariously flirty friend of mine. ive learned a lot of strategies, techniques, and everything importance about the art of flirting. more than that, i just want to thank you for being there when i needed you, for lending an ear,for scolding me and most of all for loving me for who i am. they say that in a relationship there are two year-glitches to be forewarned of: the two-year glitch, and the seven-year glitch. we have already survived the two year glitch, and i know that this seven-year glitch wont do harm to us. love you bessy. my hearts and hugs and wishes of luck to everything you do. im just around.
Of love and other demons,
Cathie

Coffee + French cheesecake = Good prelims
The dreaded preliminary exam is here. Ahhhh!!! deadlines here and there plus terrifying teachers trying to make students life more miserable. What's exciting is the different strategies students apply on how to survive this dreaded day. From endless borrowing of notes, photocopying transparency films, copying powerpoint files and most of all reading - as in endless reading. Advices from mentors our also taken into consideration: from MemoPlus Gold (to be taken a week before exams until the exam week), to eating sweet foods (Glucose is good for learning and memory). College life indeed is more than just being able to go home late and party and extended curfews. It's all about being responsible.
Cooochie-coochie coffee
this is how we survive college
Happy Birthday Ms. Fauna! :)

Im F*cking PISSED off!!!!!
My WONDERFUL know-it-all friend is trying to distant his/herself away from me. For what reason? I don’t know… the nearest thought I could point out is, s/he don’t want me to be his/her partner in ******* **** and that s/he thinks his/her ideas and knowledge are God’s gift to the people around her. To sum it up, she’s a bit boastful and arrogant (yes, you are). Its just pathetic to know that the friend you tried to comfort and care about doesn’t even care how you feel and doesn’t even trust your capacity. Well so much for so-called friendship! Ughhhhh!!! Why is it that people always tend to look down on other people’s capacity? Shite!
Before I end my hot blog(before I burn the sunny side of all things), here’s my simple message to you my DEAR friend:
I just want you to know that I really, really hate you. So much that I want to strangle your neck. Maybe this is the effect of loving and trusting you too much, that I get disappointed with all of what is happening. I can already see what lies ahead if we don’t settle this at once! I least expect you to be the one who will look down on me. You are goddamn UNFAIR! Is that the effect of broken heart and torn maidenhead? Too bad then. Oh! By the way, since we are FRIENDS and friends tell each other the flaw of the other, I want you to know that you aren’t that great and that you are feeble minded despite the fact that you are smart. And always I want to tell you that the social aspect in a man’s life is also as important as the intellectual aspect, so just a piece of advice: don’t belittle all your friends, you might lose them. And lastly, careful who you stab on the back, some people are very sensitive. They know what you are doing through your actions.
Of love and other demons,
Cathie
