Be still, and know that I am God.

Celestamine high.

I'm all glazed over. I'm floating all the time. It's been three days of this doped-up-ness. Stupid contact dermatitis. Serves me right for trusting in a P70 henna.

Spent most of the day in the car. From a brief observation at the Pasig City General, to a uniform alteration in liblib Sta. Cruz, Manila, to waiting for over two hours while Lola gets her post-surgery eye checkup. I don't know how many more trips it'll take for me to finally find my way around that city. Driving to St. Luke's and back was adventure enough. Haha.

Multiply sucks. But I really don't want to have to transfer all my photos and stuff.

Eyelids are drooping. That is all.

Nice surprise. :)

Only someone who truly knows me and loves me would get me a book that says KILL YOU on the cover as a gift, knowing I would absolutely love it. We had to go all the way from Serendra to Greenhills to get it, too, because the last remaining copy was there. I'm so happy! This pretty much takes care of my reading time this week. :)

Thank you, my love. It's perfect. Happy un-anniversary. :) :)

Summer--extended!

I was all set to write my end-of-summer/first-day-jitters entry. I was half done packing, right down to my new pencil case filled with shiny new school supplies with price tags still on them. I had paced my reading so that I would finish The Almost Moon tomorrow night. I was already making the most of my last few nights here at home, before I move into the internet-less, water heater-less, TV-less Adriatico condo.

But nooo. Pres. Roman announced at 7:10 PM that the opening of classes in UP Manila is to be moved from June 8 to June 15. So I'm left with one more week to look forward to/dread the official start of med. And with the weather the way it is (and the H1N1 virus already having penetrated Manila) it's unlikely that I'll be able to go out of town, or do any summery things. My first reaction to the text was one of annoyance, not relief or excitement. Pardon the geekiness/overeagerness.

UPSIDE:

There's more time for reading! I have time to pick up another Jodi Picoult (or two) with my one remaining Powerbooks gift card. Or, since I'm kind of in the mood for something heavier, Atonement. There are also the various TV series I've yet to finish, namely Chuck, Pushing Daisies, House, and The Big Bang Theory. But TV has not really been my thing lately.

There's also time to visit Ruari! Since according to him, adik sila sa St. Luke's, it's unlikely that they'll be suspending their start of classes as well. So I can visit him this time. :) Bea also expressed a desire to meet up before classes start. And I don't need to mention more time to spend with the family, at home, not studying.

On another geeky/overeager note, there's more time to wrap my new school books, and label them too. Haha. :p

And, much as I hate to admit it, Facebook is consuming more and more of my internet time. I only just realized how dead Multiply is already. I guess it's time to get with the times. I will still upload my pictures to Multiply though. The photo upload feature of Facebook isn't as user-friendly.

The rain messes with your head.

I wanted to run outside and dance in the rain. Just because I've never really tried it before. At the risk of catching a cold just before classes start. But then I took one step out the door and got scared of the snails. And the possible frogs. Haha. It's quite sad. :))
