Last Week of College
Well, yeah, hopefully, last week na ng pagiging college student ko. Lahat ng graduation determinant next week mangyayari, nasiksik talaga lahat. Unang una, sa monday, thesis defense. Ipagtatanggol namin ang Bayanihan Overload. Dry run nga nung defense namin bukas. Sa wednesday, 3rd long exam sa combinatorics. Hindi talaga ako masaya run sa resulta ng 2nd l.e. dun. 29% lang ang nakuha ko. The only failing na nakuha ko after 2 years and the sedond lowest l.e. score ko sa buong buhay ko, the lowest was 20%, exam sa electromagnetism. Also on wednesday, ngayon ko lang nalaman, exam din pala sa e-commerce. Nakakainis kasi yung ipapaexam niya simula january yung coverage. Unfair kasi hindi yun final exam pero ganun kabigat. Sa friday, presentation ng website project sa internet technologies. Yung ginawa ko Median : A Mediocre File Sharing System na may blog at chat. Sana makuha nun yung lahat ng bonus awards dun sa presentation para 150% plus one step up sa final grade. Lolz. Ang pinaka-crucial lang naman talaga ay yung exam ko sa combinatorics eh. Kailangan kong makakuha ng mga 75% para makakuha ng tres sa l.e. average. Sana nga matapos ko ng maayos lahat.

Pulitika
Ang huhusay din talaga ng karamihan ng mga tumatakbo para magkaroon ng posisyon sa pamahalaan ano? Biruin mo, gagastos ng malaki para sa mga posters, patalastas, at kung anu-ano pang maisip para lang maipakita ang mukha at pangalan nila sa maraming tao.
Gusto nga talaga nilang manalo. Bigay todo sa gastos. Ang pagkakarinig ko humigit kumulang P400, 000 ang bayad sa isang minutong patalastas sa telebisyon. May mga pulitikong ganoon kahaba ang mga patalastas. Ang nakakatawa talaga rito ay hindi lang isang beses pinapalabas ang mga iyon sa isang araw.
Kung manalo man sila, bigay todo rin kaya ang paglilingkod na gagawin nila?
Mayroon ding mga tumatakbo na pinadidikit ang kanilang mga posters sa kung saan saan. Nakakaloko nga kasi pati sa mga pribadong lugar nagdidikit pa rin yung mga nabayaran nila. Hindi lang naman ako ang naiinis sa mga poster na napakaruming tignan kaya nung isang araw nagtanggal kami ng mga poster ng mga kandidato at mga partylists. XD
Hindi mo na talaga malalaman kung ano ba talaga ang gusto nilang mangyari: ang manalo o ang maglingkod.
Ang isa pang nagbibigay ng malaking tandang pananong ay kung magkano nga ba ang sweldo ng mga nasa pwesto. Kunwari isang senador, magkano nga kaya ang binibigay ng pamahalaan para sa kanilang ginagawang trabaho? Kung nakakagastos sila ng P400, 000 para sa isang maikling patalastas, may pera pa kaya silang pangtustos sa pangaraw-araw na gastusin? Siyempre meron pa. Hindi naman tanga 'yang mga 'yan. Kung may sponsor naman, bakit kaya hindi na lang ibinigay sa kung saan mang charity o kung saan mang hindi lang sila-sila ang makikinabang?
Sabi nga nung kaibigan ko, imbis na yung mga plataporma nila yung ipakita, yung mga mukha lang nila na wala namang maibibigay na magandang basehan para iboto ng isang Juan dela Cruz.
Ayon nga rin sa isa kong nakausap na madalas makisalamuha sa mga pulitiko, kahit sa pinaka-urban at pinakamaliit na baranggay, mayroon at mayroong corruption.
Nakakalungkot isipin, pero ganito na talaga ang pulitika sa Pilipinas. Kasama na nga yata sa kultura.

Fate/Stay Night
The ending is absolutely stunning. I just finished watching the whole series. The Mac broke down again but a while ago it worked yet again so I decided to finish watching the series.
Anyhow, I never did expect that the series would end in such a way. The beginning and middle parts were too dragging, too many terms, explanations, and stuff to remember. The climax and conclusion gave most of everything that I actually wanted to be cleared. It was the drama that I liked, particularly the letting go of the one you love thing.
Good anime to kill time with.
For some reason, I rewatched.
There are many instances in the series were a touch of feminism is presented. "Shiro, you are my sheath". Shiro is incompetent, while Tohsaka, Illya, and Saber excel. Shiro is good at cooking. King Arthur, and also Bedivere, are shown as women. Gilgamesh, king of kings, is unable to get his hands on Saber. It all adds up.
The holy grail, in the context of this anime, is the representation of human desire. It's like, if someone excessively desires to achieve something, it will eventually lead to trouble for others.
"There are things that are beautiful because they are unattainable".
Again, the ending is very good. The art, the script, the music, the animation, everything.

Nat Sci 3 Field Trip
The assembly time was 6:30 am, we ended up leaving at 7:30 am for some reason.
We went to Nangalisan, Tuba, Benguet to look at rocks. The start of one of the proofs that Baguio or, in general, most of the Philippines was once under the ocean. We traveled for about one hour from school to get to the destination, which was near the Asin hot springs.
In the first site, there was a hanging bridge, which we crossed 10 people at a time. It is a place where one can see thick sedimentary rock layers beside a river.
After around 20 minutes at that site, we moved on to the second destination. The class had to go down from a very steep and slippery platform because the site was down that platform. It was similar to the first site in that it also had the thick sedimentary rock layers, the difference is that the layers were in a different orientation. It is intriguing to see that it is possible for oceanic crust to tilt all the way to 90 degrees from its original horizontal position. That was cool to see.
The third destination was around 15 minutes away from the second. It was a conglomerate boulder haven. Huge rocks of conglomerate were present at the site. Also located at that site was a water irrigation system for the nearby village.
The final destination was beside Marcos Highway, I think. It seemed to be a marine fossil junk yard because many marine fossils can be found there without digging. Most of my classmates enjoyed picking them up.
We went back to school after that. We arrived at 12:30 pm.
The trip was pretty much okay. I kind of enjoyed it.
