Today's Gawad Kalinga was rather tiring and darkening (haha!). But I enjoyed using the shovel under the scorching heat of the sun. I was pretty excited about our Gawad Kalinga thing since it was somewhat like an immersion and immersions excite me because I get to live someone else's life for a day or so. So today, I was more or less a construction worker. It was a bit tough even if all we did was dig into rocks and soil and do this human-chain thing to get those rocks to the other end.

I hope we get involved in more of these kalinga-things because despite the extreme exhaustion, it's always fun to work with Statsoc people. :) I'll miss having to do this with them. :(

Anyway, I went to Stat for the Finlog meeting and to help in organizing the kits. We finished up early so I decided to just go to Katipunan to spend my idle time while waiting for my mom. For some fortunate and "idle" reason also, Tonico drove me to National Bookstore. Just then, I realized I've got more "me" time now that org duties are nearly done with. I went to the racks of books and listed a few which I plan to purchase very very very soon:

Son of A Witch - Gregory Maguire
Remember Me? - Sophie Kinsella
Brida - Paulo Coelho
Life of Pi - Yann Martel
Thanks for the Memories - Cecelia Ahern
The Choice - Paulo Coelho
Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus - John Gray.

I'm so excited!!!! I want to go back to reading non-acad books! hahahahahahah Oh well. Time to settle with Lieberman at the moment.

PS. I plan to write about Mary but it's just too sad at the moment. :( :( :( Hhhaaayyy...
