XDDD I can’t believe there’s MyDeathSpace.com. The site is currently down. The server couldn’t handle the traffic it generated when AP made an article about the site.
The Philippines is where:
1. Starbucks is more expensive than gas.
2. Every street has basketball courts, but every town has just one school.
3. Students pay more than they learn.
4. Doctors go back to school to be nurses abroad.
5. Everything is spoofed!
6. Fastfood is a diet meal.
7. Rodents are normal house pets.
8. Cigarette and beer are necessities. Lottery is a commodity.
9. Soap opera is reality, news provide the dramas of life.
10. Actors make the rules and politicians provide the entertainment.
Arvy sent that as sms months ago. I say that numbers 6, 7, 8, and 9 aren’t true for everyone in the country. Anyone agree with me?
The ff. are what kept me busy (or reasons why I haven’t blogged lately) — Lucky Star, room organizing (not much of a success though), thesis proposal, for you updates, M-O, Angel Sanctuary art (yes, I’ve started drawing again), and burning downloads/requests.
Those are some I remember at the moment. I spend most of the time at home and trying to get most of my to-do list done. I always get side-tracked, so I barely finish any. -_- There was an hour blackout last week. I guess that was Wednesday since I was out on Thurday and Friday. I was told that there was a power conservation going on due to the lack of rains resulting to dry hydropower plants. I didn’t expect that, but it’s possible if the season’s all summer-like. It’s supposed to be the rainy season. There were rains lately (slightly strong and sometimes short), so there are no more blackouts. I hope. ^^;
Last July 22 is our (Mac and I) happy day. We’ve been together for 21 months already. :3 We only went to Greenbelt 3 to hang out. We couldn’t come up with what to do, but being together just like that is already enough for us. ^_~
That reminds me, I decided to post personal photos in my Multiply account. I used to upload them at VOX. I’d rather post my fandoms, hobbies, interests, etc. in VOX while personal photos at Multiply. ^_^ I plan on moving HyukTa.net Gallery there too. I only have to look for the old pictures.
Our thesis proposal was signed and approved for defense this coming Saturday. Wish us luck! ^_^V I’m glad our professor remembers us because she needs to read/check the paper before signing the proposal request form. Since we talked to her last Thursday, the process was faster than the other groups were in. We realized back then that she didn’t read our paper. Before we could point that out to her, she beat us to it by asking us questions that are already in the paper too. We couldn’t answer. We obviously didn’t read our paper before inquiring her. *lol*
We celebrated Maru’s birthday in Italianni’s. I had the Herb Roasted Chicken with 2 mashed potatoes. :9 Then we went to Starbucks Rockwell. I had Banoffee and my usual tall Cafe Latte. I was so full that when I got home I started to feel sick. Haha~ I’ll post pictures later after I do some minor editing to them.
Phoebe celebrated her birthday that rainy night too. I didn’t get to go because of Maru’s celebration. ^^; Phoebe’s birthday is on the 27th while Maru’s on the 28th. The 28th landed on a Saturday — a good day for celebrations without the excuses of friends or acquaintances not being able to make it to your party because of work or school. My excuse is different though.
