GO Channel

our department head picked claire and i to be interviewed for "go channel". i don't quite understand what it was but i was told you have to subscribe in order to view. i was joking that no one will see us because the show has no subscribers but i was dumbfounded when i was told that they have around 22,000 subscribers...

we were asked about our views on the rising prices and how it affects us personally, about the reliability of the internet as a source for academic research, and the early politicking of some senators for the 2010 elections.

i stuttered--big time.

a million things were popping into my head. i was so nervous. i don't like talking that much (in class) moreso infront of a camera and a news crew...whew! but i was somehow able to pull through--with god's help. the reporter even commented that i was the only one who said that the early politicking is againts the principle of servant leadership. those people need to concentrate on their job not on publicity. servant leadership is doing one's job when no one is looking--not when there are a thousand eyes on you.

*damn* (excuse me for the word) these politicians...always wanting to be in the limelight..

birthday bash :)

it's my special someone's birthday yesterday--which called for a celebration haha :) went to the movies and dined out... it may sound very typical but not for us... in our four years of being "together" this was probably the first time we went out on our own--no parents and no chaperone (my big sis) haha... but my mom knew all about it, and there was never a single hesitation on her part when i asked her for permission. this proves that one's obedience and honesty really pays off. i had fun, i hope he did too. making someone happy on their birthday is the best feeling one can have :)

back--for good...

it's been two years since my last blog entry in my first account... but sadly, not even a single trace was left from that old account--all the more reason for me to start anew. this blog will take you on a twisted tour in my twisted existence.

this is my diary on cyberspace...this is my haven...a space where i can vent all my insanities and frustrations... hope you find something in it in which you can relate...

it's nice to be finally back...
