Yahoo! Chris has a new song! He was my favorite contestant on American Idol last season. I was really rooting for him; HE could sing. I was so disappoined that he got kicked so early in the show. I loathed Taylor Hicks. I wanted him to trip while he was doing those ridiculous dance moves. He looks so old! He looks like a grandpa! And he reminds me of Mom's boyfriend. Eeeww!!
Anyways, push that aside for a minute before I start rambling on about it again (until now I'm STILL not over it), I'm gonna say something else.
I left for Manila yesterday around 2:30 in the morning. And the thing was, I didn't sleep at all at home. And in the bus. I was wide-awake through the whole ride. Then I took a taxi going to the dorm. I can't believe how expensive it was! I got to the dorm around 6:45. I changed into my uniform and I went straight to school. I was so sleepy through all of my classes. When I got to the dorm after class I didn't even sleep. Goddness, I was so tired. I'm still tired, come to think of it.
I went home with my cousin today, Dennis Caliwag. HE NEVER STOPS WHINING. I swear, my patience was starting to wear thin from his constant complaining. We met up in Chowking in Dapitan because he said that there was a bus station nearby. So when we got there we found out that the next bus leaves at 5:30p.m. Obviously not wanting to go home that late, I immediately told him that we should go to Cubao and take Victory Liner; that's when he started complaining. I explained to him that we had tp go to Espanya to ride the jeep but he insisted on hailing a taxi. Dear lord. I really couldn't persuade him to take a jeep. So we stood there, waiting for empty taxis to pass by. All of them were full. Finally, after about ten minutes or so, I forced him to give up and begin our walk to Espanya. He gave in. While we were walking he kept on saying that, "it's so far!" and stuff like that. I was trying to get him into talking about something else but it didn't work. Hay. When we got to Espanya, he continued to whine; until he spotted an empty taxi. He hailed it and we clambered in, and we were off to Cubao, much to the satisfaction of my dear cousin.
When we got to the bus station, he continued his complaining about how long the bus took to leave. About this time, I learned to just laugh at him every time he does that. It helped me blow off some steam. On the road, we talked about a lot of things. I learned a lot from him and I hope he learned even just a little bit from me. I kept him updated with the stuff that happened to me since we last saw each other, which, by the way, is a VERY LONG STORY since we haven't seen or talked to each other in over ten years. Here are just some of the stuff I learned about him.
- He just found out that two of our titas were my mom's sisters.
- He just found out that our lolo was my lola's husband (it's kinda hard to elaborate)
- He's on probation - this is when you failed at least two subjects during the first semester and you're given a warning that if you fail at least one more subject during the second semester, you're gonna get de-barred; in other words, KICKED-OUT.
- He has to sleep for 15 hours straight or else he'll be in a bad mood the whole day.
- He's tamad when it comes to going to school; he didn't fail his subjects because he didn't study, he failed because he was always absent.
- He sleeps at 3a.m. EVERY DAY.
- Mom's boyfriends and his ex-wife are their family friends. Oh dear lord.
- He's had more girlfriends than anyone else I know.
- His shortest relationship lasted 30 minutes.
- Girls court him; he doesn't court them.
- His last relationship ended just last January. I forgot to ask how long they were together.
- He's really close with his old high school buds.
- He talks highly of his family.
- He loves brazo de mercedez and blueberry cheesecake. Same here, dude:)
- And the biggest shocker of all: HE SMOKES. Oh no. Insan.
I got so upset when we stopped in Dau. He went down and smoked. Then when we stopped in Tarlac, he smoked again. When he got back inside the bus, he postively reeked of cigarette smoke. He took out his perfume and started spraying it all over his body. I wanted to puke real badly. The mixture of perfume and cigarettes wasn't a very pleasant thing but I had to bear with it.
We talked some more during the trip. We talked about anything and everything. I had a good time. It was nice ot have some company:)
Jane and I are gonna look for a different dorm. The dorm fee went up; ridiculously high. The sisters there are trying to make us bleed 'til we're dry.
I'm sleepy. That's all for today.
G'night y'all! :)
