2012 has been one of the best years yet but the things below are the ones memorable.

Meeting these two babies! They were bundles of joy to us because there have been no babies for so many years! I can’t wait to see baby Isabella this year! :)

These people made my first year in college a blast! I’m so blessed to have them not only as the people who I have the same interests with but also as the people who I want to party with for the next five years (hopefully until med school too)!

Loving and serving God has never been this fun with these people. I can’t wait for another year of working and having fun with them!

I’ve got my hopes up for 2013. And I love to share this year with you, guys!

Look what I’ve accomplished so far: 0%. Oh, Christmas break.

My Last Week for First Sem in Photos

Yesterday marked the end of my first semester and today is the start of my three-week sembreak! *rejoice* Spent my last week of my first semester as college student meaningfully! :)

First: Ice Cream date with Bianca! 

Had the first taste of Sebastian’s last Tuesday! My P100 spent on a scoop of cookie dough flavored ice cream was worth it. You should try it and you get to have a free taste before you can buy :) I like how unique and “Filipinized” some of their flavors are such as the Champorado flavor. :>

Second: This Task 2 Paper thing. 

I’ve spent most of time revising and revising my explanatory paper because I’m not good at these. But when I finally passed mine, heavy loads of  depression and anxiety are lifted up! Crossing my fingers and hoping that it is worth the 15% grade for my English subject. 

Third: Oh em books!!1 

I went to the National Bookstore last Tuesday to buy some necessities for my papers (just like above) and checked out some good books to read. And here are some of the books I want to buy! I want to move on reading with the Heroes of Olympus and the Kane Chronicles! Eeeep.

Fourth: The Final Game Experience.

We had our Ma18a finals so I didn’t have the chance to watch the game live yesterday. But we rushed to Leong Hall to catch up and when the game was at the last minute, everyone was just standing. The almost three-point shoot from UST almost gave me chills! And when the time ran out everyone in the hall was just leaping and jumping around. There was a thanksgiving mass later but I didn’t get to attend because I left early to go home. But I won’t miss the Bonfire! See ya guys!

Fifth: BonChon dinner with the peeps. 

Meals with the block are always a blast. Ended a great day by eating dinner at BonChon. 

Not in the photos: A glimpse of my five-page essay about a book containing poems. It gave me a headache of analyzing the poems and thank God, I’m done.

Doing homeworks at a rest day while surfing the internet. Oh well, hello ellipses and hyperbolas!
