Aaaaah, now that it's Sunday, let me bask in the glory of a fulfilled weekend. I've been having a lot of do-nothing weekends wherein I spend more time looking for things to do outside of the house and creating things to do for the sake of using my weekend. This weekend though was all business and pleasure, all done with moderation and purpose. Here goes:

Friday
: Happy Independence Day! For all it's worth, I'm proud to be Pinoy.

:A thank you God moment: I began computing for my tuition for my enrollment the next day. I got the numbers from a friend and frowned as my computations left me with my tuition falling slightly under what was in my bank account. Luckily for me, I have a teacher's discount, which is one reason why I chose Ateneo in the first place. I would have enough for my tuition but not enough for GH. Resigned, I checked my payroll account, knowing that it was only the 12th and there was no way on earth that there would be anything new in my account. I was dead wrong. My sweldo came in early. Thank you God. Now I don't need to worry about my tuition and savings, and I can still go to GH.

: I needed to buy a few stuff over in GH and knowing that Poldo would be returning there for the Creative MUVO mp3 player(which he didn't. He bought Soundwave instead. I was supposed to get that! T_T), I texted him the night before and made arrangements. Apparently, there were other people who were itching to go to GH too. Their names are Karljoe and W. So there we were, four "Scouters" in a table in Le Ching restaurant, ordering Chinese and discussing "weeeeerk" and looking for ways to keep on laughing until the waiters shoo us away. We parted ways when  I needed to buy my Binyag gift and new shoes while the said two boys went to score some new Xbox games. Thank you Poldo for being gracious enough to accompany me through the jammie hunting and failed Shoe expedition. We trooped to Karljo's house afterwards for a round of Guitar hero and "Tunay na Lalake" qoutes. I left early to go to a family dinner. Ninong and Tita were leaving early the next day back for the states and since it was also my lola and lolo's wedding anniversary as well as said lolo's birthday, we had reason to celebrate.

:unforgettable moment: When Poldo asked why I didn't get jammies of my own and why not buy a boys pair with Hulk and power rangers rather than Tweety and Disney Princess. I said, when I have my own kid we'd have matching jammies.

Saturday
: I had to get up early to enroll for my MA classes. With the H1N1 scare over at the grade school and high school you'd think the college, being between both, would think their schedule over but no. Enrollment is as scheduled, and no ma'am there's no case of an infected student here. The face masks? We're just wearing it for safety precautions. Though I sat in an air-conditioned room, waiting around can be very boring. Good thing Onyx is also every dependable. A really long line awaited me over at the cashier which I managed to get through at 11:59. Perfect timing. As I lined up with one person in front of me for the cashier, some of the other booths were already closing for lunch. I breathed as sigh of relief as I heard the RegCom tell the person behind me, "Sir, last na kayo." I trooped to SM for my usual withdraw and deposit ritual for my funds and with enrollment out of the way, I can finally focus on that phone I've been eyeing. Unfortunately, it seems to be getting more expensive compared to a few months ago when the price was actually going down. I had my solo lunch over at Kenny Rogers and scoured Cyberzone for my beloved phone. Still there and good, there's still one store that is still selling it for below 10k. Paid my internet bill and headed home.

:Unforgettable moment: Had a craving for Shakey's in the main mall but saw that it was packed and there was a line to wait to be seated. Walked all the way to Cyberzone looking for the perfect place to eat and settled for Kenny. That's one way to starve yourself.XP

Sunday

:got up early to go to mass and to do binyag duties. I wasn't Ninang thankfully, and this was my first time attending a baptism as a tita rather than a cousin, sister, kababata. We spent an hour in church and another hour in Chowking where the meals were served quick and all, but no plates and drinks were served after we were done eating. I left after buying Halo Halo for parents.
: mom went and had the desktop reformatted. Big problem, now the monitor won't work. I need to get it fixed otherwise there goes my budget for a new phone.T_T

ah well, a fulfilling weekend indeed.
