culmination

the culmination

i have not been posting about my thesis here. maybe it's because i don't want to preempt myself if ever i get deferred hehe. but just early this morning, i managed to get almost everything right and was able to get a grade of 2.0 for my defense. not high, not low either. but it's ok i guess. at least i'm graduating already. not to mention the 3.750 grade my professor and boss gave me.

segue:
which leads me to think: what's next? dang. do i bum around first and get my mind all hyped up for something better to come along or maybe be depressed again whenever i'm all alone in the house doing nothing? *sigh*
and by the way, i want to acknowledge mr/ms anonymous for the comment about me being manic depressive. i guess it's true, but so what? at least i don't go around reading other people's blogs and stalking them. i'm expecting some bitchface to retaliate now. but who the hell cares? i don't.

not that you care but:
i'm reading jessica zafra's book: twisted 7. she's just a smart ass and it's funny reading her stuff. i was laughing the whole time for her sarcasm and i didn't know it was already 4:30 in the morning. and that was the night before my defense. talk about getting some sleep the night before.

i've also just finished reading isabel allende's the stories of eva luna. it was good. it's actually a good reading material before you sleep because every chapter is a new story. before this though, i read like water for chocolate. good story. good characters. i just don't like the fact that it reminded me of some characters in real life that in the first place i'm trying to forget. i'm looking for the movie version on limewire but i just can't find it. damn.

next on my reading list will be the tale of genji. i've managed to start it up to the 5th chapter but i though i should read eva luna first. so i have to read it again from the first chapter because i don't exactly remember the story anymore.

characters that i loved on the books i've read:
samwise gamgee - the lord of the rings
i super loved his character. i can relate to him in numerous instances. like for example when he has to carry the ring for frodo. o well.

chiyo/sayuri - memoirs of a geisha
oh that subtle charm and festiness. i especially like the time when she was under mameha's guidance. i'm waiting for the movie and the trailer said it's to be shown on 2006 pa. darn.

frank - angela's ashes
that sad story. that sad childhood. though my childhood was very very much different from him, i cannot help but empathize with him. imagine in the first 50 pages, three of his brothers died because they were so poor. sad story. hehe. arse!

those are just three. i can't remember the others anymore. boohoo.

rewind:
i think she read it. i think she knows. i think she's thinking. i think she's still whoring. lol.

whew. i didn't think it will be this long.

ciao!
