How things turn out. And how time flies. Weird lang, pero okay naman.
I think. It can even be viewed humorous. (Or that might only be me. Haha.)
Pero here's the evidence: With Him, it's only a yes, no or not now. Ang winner lang talaga kung yung not now ay naging now na. Sense of humor Mo talagaaaaa!
I know this doesn't make much sense, but this entry is mostly for me to be reminded of my decisions and choices. So it's okay if this is rather incoherent. Stream of consciousness drama. Haha.

I promised Seedling Jaimee that I'd burn her a cd full of fanworthy songs I've discovered recently. Since I wasn't able to fulfill that promise (yet), here's the lyrics of one of the songs. Actually, I don't need to use Jaimee as an excuse. It's just a beautiful song.
Kahit na medyo self-centered siya. Hahaaaa!
How Do You Love (Collective Soul)
There once was love thrown into your room
But you never knew
A calendar of days just for you
But you never knew, never knew no
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
There once were eyes that only saw you
But you never knew
A portrait of a flower in full bloom
But you never knew, never knew no
And the words that you fear will always be
The words you hear
This space where you've been living
Has gifts you've never given
That's the face you always show
Ask me for words of wisdom
Tell me of your condition
I don't know, I don't, I don't know
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide

Signing off for the nexxt few weeks. Probably. :p

A few things:
Bawal mawalan ng pasok bukas, huhu. May quiz ako na ibibigay sa students ko. :(
---------
Two weeks into teaching and generally, all is good. While I complain about the workload and my class schedule, at the end of each day, I know I still leave work happy and excited about the next day. Hahaaa. Baka hindi na ko ganito bukas. 
---------
While waiting for my mom to pick me up yesterday at Delifrance (Saturday reporting at work yesterday, oh well), I decided to make an answer key to the exercise set I'm planning to give to my students sometime this week. All was going okay and as I was finishing up the key, a British guy and his Filipino friend took the table next to mine. The Brit noticed I was answering the worksheet and here went our conversation:
Brit: I couldn't help but notice, but are you doing your homework?
Me: Oh no, I'm answering the worksheet for my students.
Brit: So you're answering it for someone?
Me: No, for my students. I'm their teacher.
Brit: Wow, so you're making an answer key before you check their papers?
Me: No, they'll be answering this sometime this week as an exercise.
Brit: That's great! I taught Math for 34 years in Canada and Saudi Arabia, that's why I couldn't help but notice what you were doing.
Me: (hahaaaa, ngiti na lang akoooo.)
Brit: So how many years have you been teaching?
Me: This is my first year to teach.
Brit: Oh good luck! I hope you stay long in the business.
Me: Thanks, I hope I could teach as long as you did.
Filipino Friend: Good luck! He just loves math, that's why he's like that.
At that point my mom called to inform me that she was by the Podium's driveway already so I had to excuse myself from the conversation. I told the tale to my mom and she laughed & told me I shouldn't be doing geeky Math stuff at random public places. @_@

Toiletries - check
Food - check
Pretty organizer - check
Net connection - YES!

Here's my (semi)final schedule this semester:
Practicum :: Am going to teach two Junior Advanced Algebra classes. I said I wouldn't teach at IS, because I am scared shitless of sooper OC lesson plans they require there, but recent changes to the Student Teaching Committee forced me to do so otherwise. Ohgod I hope I don't kill anyone this semester. Huhu. So, greatest integer function anyone?
Stat 131 :: I'm done with all my Stat subjects for my minor, but I figured taking this subject up would be interesting. Ahahaaa. But seriously, I think it'll be rather fun. :P
---------
I-Was-Able-To-Catch-These-Movies checklist:
Mostly because I won't be able to watch any more films for the next five months. Sigh.
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
Meet the Robinsons
Fracture
Zodiac
Ocean's 13
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
---------
I need something good to read.

I HATE YOU CRS!!!! Utang na loob, last semester ko na bilang undergrad, palpak ka pa ring online enlistment ka?!
To give you something horrible: Instead of enlisting me in my practicum course and its corequisite seminar course (the only subjects I need to graduate), the oh-so-great CRS enlisted me in Lingg 366 and PA 209, which are doctoral & masteral subjects respectively.
WTFFFFFFFFF talaga.

My entire family actually went home early so that we could all catch the ending of Maging Sino Ka Man. And what do you know, we got exactly what we expected: 10 minutes of actual storyline material, an hour of commercials and a FECKIN' ADVERTISEMENT FOR BOOK 2!
Come on. You have to be kidding me. How will I be able to watch Book 2 with my practicum in June?! LOL.
But really, those entertainment people don't know when to quit. Especially when they're ahead. They should've just tied all the loose ends of the story. Now, with "the sequel" coming, they'll just be banking on the show's popularity to get people to watch it.
Okay. Stopping corny stuff now. :P

ARTICLE HERE.
Haha.
I hate to think of it this way, but because of Nelle's burning desire to see his name on the web (peace, Kuya Bear, hee), we, the MSPs, got to see an article about the program! :)

Haiii. Back to studying multivariate probability distributions. Wahhh. There's this theorem I still can't prove. Huhuhu.

I wanted to be the Great Liberating Teacher, to raise them from their knees after days of drudgery in offices and factories, to help them cast off their shackles, to lead them to the mountaintop, to breathe the air of freedom.
~from Teacher Man, Frank McCourt
When I took up EDFD 116 (Educational Psychology), the final exam was actually a test on what type of philosophy we'd employ as teachers. I turned out to be one who would advocate Social Constructivism.
Haha.
No relevance to the quoted text from the book (because what the text says isn't social constructivist in nature), I just remembered that when I read the passage. :)

WTF.
It has been two hours since I started uploading the Mr. & Ms. Eduk 2007 pictures. Remind me to do either of the following when an event like this comes by again:
(1) set my camera to take pics at a lower resolution
(2) THE BETTER but more hopeless OPTION: not have Edsoc people take camwhore photos ever
And to top things off, Mjay dumped the editing the event video to me. Digital injustice. :P

Even if I can't frickin' accept the brainless-ness of the title, I'm still going to plug this because it's for the benefit the org's scholar (aside from it's the biggest event in the College, lol):

Hahaha. In fairness talaga.
While watching the preview for tomorrow's episode of Maging Sino Ka Man last night, a scene came up with Jackie signing her name on a marriage contract. It lead me into thinking that the wedding of JB and Jackie will push through as planned, and that something will jar the lives of the characters sometime later in the series.
But noooo! In all fairness to the show, Jackie suddenly disappears before the ceremony and the scene that followed showed Jackie and Eli tying the knot! Local television finally has an idea on being properly sly. Haha. Kudos to them. LOL.

I shall now go back to layouting pretty things. @_@
