We all know the picture cliches so let me give you one picture to summarize the past weeks:

Mineral water bottle for perspective. This pile-o-doom is a little over 2 ft high.

I had to cram all of this, divided in not so small doses, into my cranium everyday for the past 3 weeks. I think I was so bangag that the night before our Patho exam, while attempting to re-heat my dinner, I watched it burst into flames inside the microwave instead. I’m still not sure if it was the foil or the styrofoam that was non-microwavable. It was probably both. But the bigger ka-shungakan was that I just stared at it. Luckily, my friend who was studying at the dorm pantry had more sense and put it out for me. lol.

After the 19 semestral and final exams were over and done with, I felt a bit invincible. It’s like driving to Baguio.Afterwards, all other trips feel a lot shorter.

We had our much needed year-ender party after the last exam. It was mostly like our usual batch parties: live music care of the band, all you can consume food and alcohol, and Optimus Prime (a friend’s beer bong, which is becoming a steady fixture in our parties). But this time we had the party at a friend’s resort-pretending-to-be-a-house. It was pretty damn funny to watch mostly drunk people drag, push, pull, throw (and all the other creative ways one can enter a body of water) each other fully clothed into the pool (and we were in Tagaytay!).

I didn’t drink as much as I usually do, to the disappointment of everyone who was waiting for my inner drunk English sailor to come out. I even managed to effectively hide/hang out at the pool table with those who wanted to stay dry. But I guess I wasn’t as sober as I thought either as I hit my head with the car door as we were leaving. :))

[I have more to write 'bout the last two months so expect a few more entries during the next few days. C'mon, you know you missed me. ;) haha]
