my week...

Monday...I can't remember what happened.

Tuesday...One of my most memorable nights. My friends, Krn and Noreen, and I were about to go to the parking lot when we saw one of our managers. We asked him about his day and he told us that he had some problems so we joked around and told him that we should drink to that. It was all for fun until he asked, "where?". We went to Molokai, one of the bars in Alabang. We were there until4:30 AM. We talked about our angst and our grievances in life. We had fun that night. It was awesome.

Wednesday...we were still talking about the thing that happened in Molokai.

Thursday...Almost all people on the floor were fretful on what would happen of our day. Mr. ACM had a bad mood. He was a little bit cranky and he was the person that we would not dare cross. Well, before our shift ended, he was smiling again but still we didn't know why he was peevish for two days.

Friday...everything was fine even though we were feeling a little bit sluggish. We were tired but we were working..we were young and we were underpaid...

Circle trilogy


I finished reading the book of Norah Roberts' Circle Trilogy, Morrigan's Cross, Dance of the gods and Valley of Silence, early this morning (around 5:00AM--kinda addict). The three books were about the sorcerer, witch, scholar, shape-changer, warrior and "one who was lost" (vampyre). The books were interesting but I think it would be better if she were more detailed especially when the war broke in the Valley of Silence. I felt like I want to read more about the events that had happened in the story especially the fights they had with the vampyres and of course the love stories of the six main characters. Among the three love stories, since each book has a love story of it's own, like in Morrigan's Cross, it was about Hoyt the sorcerer and Glenna the witch, in Dance of the gods, it was about Larkin the shape shifter and Blair the vampyre hunter and the last book of the trilogy was about Cian the vampyre and Moira the scholar. The trilogy had humor, friendship and team work. It did not just revolve around love and this was one of the reasons that made the three books wonderful to read.



The circle trilogy was a combination of historical and contemporary setting. It was meritorous on howNora Roberts was able to combine the two and how she was able to entrancingly described the characters. It was worth reading and I could not get enough of it.

my saturday...

12:01AM, Saturday

I went to Starbucks my favorite coffee shop. I asked my friend, Anna, to bring my laptop so that I could surf the net and write my critique paper about the article that my professor gave. I researched about the topic that I had to critique for several days already but it was so hard to find it. My friends already left me in Starbucks for they had to go somewhere to have fun. Me, I was stuck with my critique paper and with my Starbucks chai tea. I was so frustrated because I didn't know how to start my paper and how to critique the article that was given since I didn't know anything. hehehe! Anyway, I was so frustrated that I went home and I ended up playing Monopoly in my laptop. I played until 5:00 AM and that made me panicked. I had a class at 8:00AM and I didn't have a paper to submit. The thing was, I was not worried. I slept for two hours and went to school afterwards. I asked my professor if I could submit the paper later that afternoon. Thank god! He was such an understanding person that he gave me until afternoon to finish my paper. The funny thing was, when I asked my classmates about the paper, I realized that the paper that I had to do was not difficult than I thought. I just didn't understand the instructions...Wooohhh!!! Well, I was able to submit before the time my prof gave me elapse. Next time, I think I really have to analyze and to understand the instructions before complaining. *^*
