lately i've been itching to take a trip to Quiapo or Riverbanks just to buy dvds but i'm too paranoid (or is it my conscience speaking?). buyers of pirated dvds would actually serve jail time if caught so i'm not going to step into a pirated dvd stall until the paranoia dies down or until i gather enough guts.
nothing profound to say-- which sucks, basically. i've been wanting to write so bad for the past few days but rack as hard as i can, i still can't find the right things to talk about. i'm getting tired of writing this-is-what-happened-today entries. i don't think people even care about what crazy or good things happen to my life. my life is boring anyway except for some days when i feel like going out and doing things that i usually enjoy. other than that i'm only at school or at home. dork, yes?
to cheer myself up a bit and put smiles to faces who need to be brightened up, i'm going to sort through the huge trunk of bags which were hardly used (there are A LOT). i'm going to donate them to the
UP Pahinungod so that i can be a productive citizen for a change. there's a Valentine's Day bazaar by the UP Pahinungod at the PGH Quadrangle so if you want to donate stuff (anything from books, bags, toys, etc.) just email me
crazygirlgail@yahoo.com. the proceeds will go to the UP Pahinungod programs like Hospice Care, Program for the Street Children, etc. or if you want a portion of the profit of your sales, you can have it as long as you give a little to the Pahinungod.
i wish school permitted me to engage more of my time to volunteering for the program. but come to think of it, volunteering is
MAKING TIME not
FINDING TIME. so i might be productive this year. i hope so. last year, all the counselling workshops, etc. were scheduled during days (and times) when i had class so i couldn't attend most of the time. argh. that was very frustrating. i wanted to take up that counselling workshop. i think the other people from the Hospice Care program already visited the Cancer ward. that makes me sad :( they say you can't visit the ward yet unless you've taken up the counselling workshop. :'(
it's the Department of Social Science week, by the way. so we've been listening to symposiums. i've been to two already. yesterday's topic was
Ang Pagkalalaki ng Mga Lalakeng Pilipino (hrm, pretty interesting) and today's topic was on the conditions of the Filipino laborers (particularly those of Hacienda Luisita). then tomorrow it's film showing--
If These Walls Could Talk (a film about homosexuality). last year we watched
El Crimen del Padre Amarro. i liked it.
practice again tomorrow. actually, the contest/presentation is on friday. yikes. Lord, help us through.
do me a favor and click on this link:
I want to know more about Jesus. i was browsing through the
