Take-nology for Granted

Technology is greatly appreciated at least twice in their entire existence—when it is first introduced (or discovered) to significantly make lives easier, and decades after it is no longer produced and has outlived its use (and users). In between, it is unappreciated and taken for granted. Such is the concept behind the museum and artifacts. One era’s junk is another era’s treasure. The Ayala Museum, for instance, houses the most ordinary stuff— decades and centuries ago. Nothing’s so special about plates and pots, clothes and ornaments until time makes its mark on them.

Para Sa'yo, Krisha

Actually, exam ko 'to last year sa isang panitikan class. Pero ikaw iniisip ko nung sinusulat ko 'to hihi. Labyu!
 
Yoh. May pinabasa sa’ming mga kwento sa isa kong klase sa panitikan baka magustuhan mo. Maikling kwento lang sila so ilang pages lang yun, saka tungkol sa pag-ibig (na paborito mo kahit wala ka namang lablayp). Malay mo makakuha ka pa ng realizations dun para sa mga hinanakit mo sa buhay.

Week Five Past Five, Still Alive

The eleventh week starts on Monday and ends the head and neck anatomy class with exams until Tuesday. Morning lectures followed by afternoon exams, with only lunch breaks in between. Such is the life of a medical student. Not only do lectures and discussions and all other class activities revolve around exams, exams are the center of our universe. This is important, remember this, they will ask this in the exam. 

A few weeks earlier (feels more like months) before another exam, a classmate fainted on her way to the comfort room. She looked really tired  before the incident, dozing off while reading our anatomy book. Didn't seem to be getting enough sleep. See, exams are even more important than sleep in this part of the universe. Studying one week before the exam is already cramming.

A Tale of Tomato Sauce and Iced Drinks


A little more than a decade ago, eating was torture. While some people live to eat, I barely ate to live. I pretty much disliked most food I tasted. Spaghetti, however, disgusted me the most.

A List of Hannahs

This message was sent to my phone yesterday:
GENO! - Hannah
So I got confused. There are several of them in my world.
