Sorry for the two-posts-a-day thing going on lately. I’ve been busy haven’t had time to publish the posts on the day I was suppose to publish them.
Anyhow, yesterday was a great day for me (and so is today! But that’s a different story…), I got to see my batchmates during college in our yearbook launch. Yeah! Finally our yearbook is here!
Algorisme 2005
As I was eating my breakfast in front of the computer, while reading my feed subscriptions, I got to Bulitas’ most recent post “Foul” and lookie what I found…
A happy bunch of UST Salinggawi Members during the UAAP Opening.
Great! Just a nice effin way to start the morning. I really have no time to waste since I have deadlines but I have a few minutes to spare… So I followed the link from where it came from and immersed myself to the x00 (and counting) commentaries thrown all over regarding the photo.
My take on this? This is crap. Outrageous and downright foul. The L signs I could take, but the dirty finger? Boom! Below the belt dude, just right on the crotch area actually. @#$%^&*
So maybe these boys were just fooling around, come on admit it guys, at one point or another, we make fun of the other schools/universities through the school vs. school jokes because we’re dead bored but these guys? They should have been more careful to let a camera catch this foolishness.
It seems my alma mater has finally caught up with technology. UPLB has introduced online registration to its students for summer enrollment. The system is actually the project/feasibility studies of several of my batchmates last 2005. How I wish I was part of their group so that I didn’t have to worry about conceptualizing a feasib, I may already be a graduate by now. The only advantage of not being in their group is the expectations aren’t so heavy and downtrodden on you. I’m not regretful about that, I’m actually happy that finally, the project my batchmates have so painstakingly worked on is finally getting implemented and used for its purpose, i.e. online registration for the college.
I believe that it may not look like the best of it, but if it’s working great and already bug free (at most if not at all), then I’d give it the thumbs up. I haven’t tried it yet though, I probably will use the system when it comes to that point of me readmitting.
Yey! After so long I can play the guitar again! And because of that, I’m posting lyrics! (oh wag na kayo pumalag sa trips ko e..) On Saturday, we’re going to have the awarding of the tennis game! Woop! I’ll post something then. *grins*
I miss elbi! And this reggae song makes me miss it more! Hmmmmmm I need to get streaming in here so you all could hear it.

Laging alaala ang Elbi nights
Saya na walang humpay
Bayad sa jeepney pabago-bago
Estudyante laging nalilito
Lalakad lang ay ayos na
Mga gabi laging nasa labas
Nag-iinom sa tapat ng ICs baba
At nagkakape sa ICs taas
Wag ding kalimutan mga gabi
Nagliliparan sa campus
Mga tao lahat nagsasaya
Hindi ko malilimutan ang Elbi nights
Dito nabubuo ang lahat
Bagyo na merong pasok pa rin
Absent lagi pumapasa pa rin
Pag sembreak na party lahat
Naalala mo pa ba
Mga swimming nights sa Baker
Mga tugtugan sa dating Padi’s
Sa Agrix at sa Heights
Mga tao’y masasaya at maliligalig
Mga Jammers lahat at nagkakantahan
Di mo malilimutan ang Elbi nights
Home ay Petrino’s at Big Mac
Lechon kawali at Bug-ong
Footlong na pagka-sarap-sarap
Pagkain para sa lahat
Oh fertility tree, oh fertility tree of uplb, how I miss thee….
Hahaha, I remember jogging around oval once with a few friends, resting a while under the bask of the very shady tree and finding so early in the morning… a used condom in between it’s roots… aaah yes, you read that right. used condoms… under a tree in the big big freedom park.
During the mornings and afternoons, this tree is the haven of joggers, football players and whathaveyous. It’s big enough to have picnics, and there’s enough space to play a game of frisbee, volleyball or football or kite flying.
During the nights, it’s a completely different story. I don’t know how they do it, but couples are able to do miraculous activities underneath the tree, especially during the times when the UP police force where not yet required to do their rounds in the middle of the night and no lights where installed nearby. This tree is just near “Kalye Buntisan” (How do you translate that.. Road of Impregnation?) but that’s for another college reminiscing.
