Appreciation

now that the national moot court competition is over, i want to thank and express my gratitude to the following persons:

- Lars & G - the so-called "DRAGON LADIES" and "GIANT KILLERS" hahaha, you both did great during the competition, however, the forensic's guild opportunity to argue before supreme court justices will have to wait till next year (di ba G? hehehe).. nevertheless, a huge huge huge THANKS to both of you

- Hazel - tunay na maaasahan, you sticked with the guild from the day we started preparing the memorials till the very last day of the competition. i know that you really wanted to compete and i apologize for letting you down (after all, i'm a useless prime minister hehehe), but next year, your opportunity will come

- Dean - your contributions were truly indispensable and you played a big part for the success of the team. remember your promise hahaha

- Ole - i know you're on a leave of absence from school, but thanks for the help

- Bigx and Welski tag team - thanks for sticking with me during the first day of the competition. i know i demanded a lot from the two of you but thanks for understanding

- Joana - malakas nga talaga ako sayo hahaha, i enjoyed your funny comments on some of the mooters hehehe

- Skye - your willingness to volunteer as a bailiff is admirable, even though i asked you on such a short notice, isa pang maaasahan

- Prime - kahit alumnus na ng arellano, you nevertheless volunteered. thanks

- Khalid - not me, but the other Khalid hehehe, thanks for volunteering bro, i appreciate your efforts

N.B. this might be my last project as ALFG prime-minister wooooooooooohoooooooooo!!! hehehe

finally, something stupid

after another long lay-off (hiatus), something stupid came up which urged me to write about.. for friendster users, have you noticed this (look at the yellow highlight portion in the picture) oh yeah friendster "you win", or should i say WON!!!

note: this is real people, it's 100% unedited :)

how ironic

aga mulach as endorser of quaker oatmeal brand, now isn't that ironic?? i mean come on, he's an endorser of JOLLIBEE (A FAST FOOD CHAIN) and now he's also endorsing a product which "protects your heart", when everybody (or some people) knows that a one of the (major) causes of heart diseases is FAST FOOD... now that's what i call a conflict of interest hehehehe, correct me if i'm wrong ladies & gentlmen =)

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

did you notice that there are some restaurants located right below the gold gym's branch in glorietta, and if you look carefully you'll noticed that there's a Häagen-Dazs outlet too?? what a combination, an ice cream parlor which is one storey away from a fitness gym.. nice location guys very nice of you =)

fucked up

I'M SO FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKED UP REALLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKED UP!!!!

so what happened?

since my short "vacation" is coming to an end in few hours, it's time for me to reflect on what i did & what took place during that period.

i watched:

1. the godfather trilogy - could have been the best trilogy of all time, were it not for sophia coppola's acting in part III of the trilogy, but generally the story on michael corleone's rise to power was told in a good way. a quote i remember from the trilogy "i know it was you fredo, you broke my heart, you broke my heart" -michael corleone to his brother fredo in part II.

2. star wars episode I-VI - time to revive my nerdy & geeky alter-ego... this was one heck of a lengthy movie marathon, now try to imagine me watching 6 movies, with each one of them having a running time of at least 2hrs... sheeeeesh i probably won't do that again. anyways, i just realized that although the story of the star wars series was good, the acting sucked and SUCKED REAL GOOD, notwithstanding that some of today's accomplished actors and actresses were involved in the movie. (oh by the way, i think that a young harrison ford looks like steve martin hehehehe..)

3. friday night lights (the movie) - another nice movie about a high school american football team. it portrayed the life of teenagers who are idolized by the whole town, and for these teenagers and their coach to keep up with too many expectations.. (lid's verdict: three thumbs up!!! yes people i'm an alien born with three thumbs hahahaha)

4. napoleon dynamite - one of the weirdest movies i ever watched, but it was so weird that it was actually very good.. quote i remember from the movie - "vote for pedro, vote for pedro"

5. samurai champloo - this is an anime series, it has a good story which is unique in it's own way and the fighting scenes were also good. plus the animation was done in a nice way.

music albums i listened to:

1. infinity on a high by fall out boy - good album, nice songs from an emo band.

2. don't fake it by the red jumpsuit apparatus - now this band has a weird name but they came up with a good debut album, way to go.

3. all albums by explosions in the sky - i didn't think for a second that an instrumental rock band could ever exist, but they proved me wrong, more so when they were able to come up with 4 albums.. they rock!!!

books i read:

actually nothing as in nothing hehehe, aside of course from few time magazine & news articles from the internet but other than that i didn't open any books during this short vacation.

for this blog:

1. i changed the banner of my blog, it features homer co'z i got tired from watching stewie smoking hehehe

2. i added a tiger pet (named tiger lid), just to show the world how pathetic i become...

3. i added a blogger and firefox buttons (firefox is much better and secure than internet explorer.... i know i'm very very bad in endorsing products hehehehe)

also wasted the majority of my precious golden time:

1. chatting with friends

2. sleeping (now what's a vacation without sleeping hehehehe)

due to lack of time (well, i spent majority of the time sleeping and chatting) i wasn't able to:

1. watch the harry potter series

2. watch band of brothers series for the nth time (oh well i still don't get bored watching it)

3. read any good books

4. change the layout of this trashy blog

5. watch samurai 7 co'z i just discovered that the files i downloaded were corrupt buhuhuhuhu

the results

yup it's confirmed, the supreme court will be releasing the results of the 2006 bar exams tonight, april 2, 2007. so i'd like to take this opportunity to hope that the following names will be flashed on the strategically placed (that's what Justice Angelina Sandoval-Gutierrez said hehehe) LCD monitors, they are:

1. hanan romanda;
2. hosni guiling;
3. berne guerrero; and
4. aileen amor

God bless to all of you.

if i could, then i would

yes people the title of this entry is a verse from a song, but in reality, it's just my wish list so here it goes:

1. if could learn how to speak english, but here's the twist, with a scottish accent hehehe (to give you an idea, watch braveheart)

2. if i could go the CAMP NOU, Barcelona and watch a game between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid (the so called el classico)

3. if i could get a job which lets me travel to different cities around the world at least once a month

4. if i could have a photographic memory, oh that would be great for my law studies

5. if i could have a tickle me elmo doll (i don't why the heck i included this one hehehe)

6. if i could become one of the stockholders of google.com (hey they earn a lot every year)

7. if i could gain some weight, at least 20lbs (i'm a malnourished person after all)

can't think of anymore wishes, so i'll stop
