a wedding and a baptism

just ended an unusually long chat with jen, a highschool "fwen." feels nice spending some nice talk with a more-than-a-decade-old friend and having her share with you her happiness as she's about to walk down that aisle this october.

yup yup, the (most) eligible girl among our kada will finally tie the knot. who would ever thought that she'd be the first. aside from kaye, jen was the last who had a boyfriend. jen was the most masungit to boys among us, despite being the most attractive. i remember during college, xan and i even had a bet on who between jen and kaye will be the first to have a bf. [which reminds me, ei tokti, where's my ice cream? =D ] now, she is the first among us girls who'll take that "road we desire to travel." we wish nothin but the best for our dear jenpot. =)


let me also wish the best for my inaanak, eduard rollan ravelo lapuz. a new addition to my list of cutie, charming and adorable godchildren. i only say yes to the cutie ones eh, hehe. thanks to ate ehla and erwin for letting me be a part of the dear big baby boy's life. last sunday was baby's baptismal and ninang was so sorry that she ran really late.

hail to the blue eagles

in a day, a prey was doubly killed by two predators - fierce eagles. the first one whom the prey took in as someone she can have a peaceful coexistence with did not even recognize her and tore her heart, feasted on it. the second one, sumptuously devoured her, her being, her faith on herself.

let us just say that the prey was resurrected and vowed to finish off that specie of predators. given the right opportunity, she will. not vengeance will be exacted. but justice. if these predators think she is one feeble half-bred fighter, they should think twice. not in this lifetime will they ever be successful in defeating her. not in this lifetime. never.

jurisperitus

had an early day today. much as i want to, i cannot extend my peaceful coitus with my bed. i have to go to beda and distribute our batch yearbook to my classmates. i was sooo late, as in, sobrang late that i treated na lang the press' messenger to lunch. i did not anticipate that traffic is that bad on a saturday morning (along ssh). a number of my classmates were waiting for me when i boarded off the cab. hehe. and they swarmed at me like flies the moment i received the yearbooks from mr.messenger. sobrang kapagod. started at 11:30AM, had lunch at 2:00PM and went off at 5:00PM. dinaig pa ang paggawa ng pleading sa kapaguran.

twas nice seein again those people with whom you shared many scaredy "due" days, cramming season, bokya recits. ours is a small batch (usual for the "traditional' beda system), with 75 people all squeezed in a huge room. no wonder, we are that united (to the point of opposing angas profs and issuing our own manifesto). and as i scan the pages of our dear "jurisperitus" (beda law's yearbook was titled as such since 2003), though i had memorized each and every line thereof and all the pictures therein, i couldnt help but get nostalgic. those were really the days - when the only thing that scares us are recitations, ngayon judges na. hehe. everyone has evolved a lot (yuck parang mga primates, hehe). each has his own story to tell about his/her first pleading or appearance in court. each recounting that law school is indeed far better, and happier.

what probably made me all the more poignant is that i wasnt able to fulfill a promise to myself to express my gratitude to certain professors who contributed a lot in my passing the Bar. first in the list is atty. albay-que who was my professor in persons and family relations, obligations and contracts and labor standards. with my UP-acquired skill in plotting skeds (and guessing prof line-ups), i deliberately chose her class no matter how hellish my life will be, i didnt care. all i want is to learn and her strictness is compatible with my "you're-lenient-i'm-complacent" lifestyle. birthday pa naman niya last week. =( i could still remember her shrill voice, her famous advice to us her girl students "never marry a peter pan," and of course, on a personal note, the way that she addresses me (from ms.constantino to cristina to cristine and tin, later on) to the extent that my friends would tease me as an "albay baby." not that i was her favorite, na-bokya din ako sa kanya. she is a fair prof, plays no favorites. she took the bar really sick, with dextrose and all, and placed tenth. my idol.

then of course, there is our vice-dean, dean navarro, a civilist. sobrang galing. he almost placed first when he took the bar, kaso the first placer (an atenean) was an inch ahead of him due to a question about succession. ironically, dean navarro's forte became succession, a subject which he has taught for years in Beda. third si atty. arcilla. fourth si atty. aquino. ay dami pa, promise.

it's as if beda has turned into a ghost town. really sad. though of course, i remain hopeful that the roster of new profs will continuously make bedalaw the best law school...in mendiola. =)

reminiscent of the past na nga daw talaga our yearbook. collector's item. hehe. we should have titled it instead, "those were the days, the heydays of beda law."


p.s. anyone who has read the article published last saturday (june 24) at the philippine daily inquirer can relate as to what my ka-dramahan is all about. =)
