Last Day

Today marks the last day of eliminations for this year’s sportsfest. We managed to top our bracket (which means that we move on to the semis) in Tennis but the girls had their first loss. It was a very, very close fight. Both of them in singles scored 5-7. It was somewhat heartbreaking yet that’s it. Shit happens. It happened. The good part is, they’re not yet eliminated, so they still have a chance to make it somewhere in the Top 3. On a different sport, I can almost not believe that our Basketball team lost for the second time. It’s “eliminated” for them. Their first loss was during last week’s first set of elims in which they scored only 2 points behind that of the Fisheries team. This time, I heard that it was only 5 or 6 points against the Scions. The sad part? Well, they just happened to be the champion last year — and they were twice-to-beat! Oh, well. Change happens.
I went to the church today after a series of Sundays without doing so. I have to thank Someone for all the happy things (even though I am no longer capable of remembering all of ’em this instant) that’s been lately. I surpassed exams, won my games, acquired new belongings, and had the opportunity of attending an IT congress for the second time. I sat beside Sahara (a friend who’s a BS Economics student) and it was interesting on how she were asking things which related to the homily… I had 3 cups of rice and Adobong baboy and fried chicken for dinner. Heavy, huh. We won’t be having a class in our Computer Graphics (animation using Blender) subject tomorrow so that leaves only our exam in World Literature for for certain we won’t meet in our Systems Analysis subject in the afternoon because we have to be on the airport for our flight at 17:00 o’clock. It’s gonna be bye-bye school for a week starting tomorrow.
A few lines by Jeff Lew:
“C’mon. We’re animators. We’re not supposed to be smart.”
(after talking about a specific feature in animation)
“You’ll love it. If you don’t love it yet, you better love it.”
New Footwears!

For the first time (sounds like a movie starring KC Concepcion and Richard Gutierrez to me lol) since I stepped into college, I finally bought a brand new pair of shoes. Oh, yeah! I AM LOVING IT SO MUCH. :cheerful: I didn’t actually plan on buying one today for I was to only get a new haircut at the good old salon that makes me happy and buy new slippers that will hopefully satisfy my sweaty feet until I realized how poor-looking my shoes really are already that one more wash and it’ll definitely come to its end. (Wait, that makes me remember that this is already my second pair of shoes in college. Teehee) I currently have three sneakers and they’re all the same — very tampered, open to water penetration, and no longer fully reliable when engaging in sports. When Mama surprisingly approved my request of buying one, I did not hesitate to look up for one that suits me well and with an affordable price. In the end, I decided on a black slip on Skechers (something like the one below). This’ll be my first time using such type of shoes and brand. I wish a long life for this pair. :sweat: And oh, the slippers I bought are the so called Havaianas. It’s colored brown with prints of the brand name letter h all over. Do I count myself in now? 😆 I’mma post pictures of these two for sure. Soon.
You might be wandering why I’m having all these new haircut and slippers and shoes. Well it’s because for the upcoming Philippine Youth Congress in Information Technology in UP Diliman this year. Obviously, it’s not an event that truly requires grooming. I’m just seeing the fact that I’m not from Manila and I barely even go there. Everybody does such thing, right? (If you’re a Filipino and you’ll disagree with me, I’ll hunt you down anywhere you wish to go.) I’ll be leaving by Monday afternoon and will stay there for a week. To my online buds, would you mind an eyeball (I just love this word)? I haven’t tried it yet though. :laugh: There are still many things I’d love to blog about and hopefully they’ll be all up next time. ‘Til then!
Edit: Check this out. What do you see in the title again? :tongue: It’s thanks to Euri who was the one who initially told me about the tutorial. Glad to be of help to others.
