another ordinary day. attended my succession and tax law classes with nothing out of the ordinary. yesterday, sunday, i went to UP to attend the first matches for courts of law. i signed-up for table tennis because i thought no one wanted to play. i was informed by someone from 4D that he wants to play too and i was glad to let him play instead of me. even if i knew i wasnt going to play, i still went to the CHK gym. i havent played table tennis for quite some time and i just wanted to just play a little. besides, it was good that he replaced me because he was certainly better than i was. and when i was heading home, saw my cousin at the Checkpoint, riding his one-month old big bike. hitched a ride to philcoa. tsk. and i thought i was going to be the first one in the family to own one of them big bikes. i mean, it was my plan to buy one once i start earning. and if ever im going to buy an automobile, id buy a pick-up or something built for similar purposes.

as for the day before, saturday, i also went to UP after waking up around lunch time. i was planning to study in the library but unfortunately, the 4th floor was closed and it was hot in the 3rd floor. so i headed to the mall. i dont quite recall why i went there in the first place. next thing i know, i was heading home thinking it was a waste of time to go to the mall.

as for friday, july 13 (friday the 13th), it was a very good day. it started with me inside the UP library studying. then i got a text message from diane asking me if i want to go to marikina shoe expo to see an exhibit and eat at bellini's afterwards. then right after jump texted whether i was going to the Block D party at grace's house. i said yes to both of them (although i was hesitant whether i really wanted to go to the party). anyway, after a few hours, headed home to get some sleep since i didnt have any the night before. then went out with diane later. and hours later, went to the party. got home around 3am. jluy 13th in its entirety was really good and also served a break from law school (not that i really needed one since ive been spending time with old friends lately).

as for thursday. nothing out of the ordinary. got Public international law (where weng and allelu were called to recite), negotiable instruments (where i got called to recite and made a fucked up mistake of citing the wrong article number, saying the provision i was reciting was article 66 when in fact it was 65!), and evidence (where a class activity was prepared by mam avena where we were supposed to apply what we have learned from the past weeks to the film we just saw last tuesday. as some of my blockmates joked, we were 31 angry students! the film was 12 angry men).

as for wednesday, went to see harry potter right after succession class. saw it in The block, and watched it around 2:30pm (class ended around 1:30pm, so it was really fortunate that i need not wait long and loiter in the mall). i was a bit disappointed and felt the movie was like an extended trailer with its "choppy" scene transitions. but even if thats the case, i still intend to watch it again with my siblings this coming weekend. i also got in touch with eller (thru text of course) since it was his birthday.

as for tuesday, again nothing much out of the ordinary. got PIL class for around 30 mins since prof leonen wasnt able to come in time (very busy man), nego and evidence (film showing of 12 angry men). when i got home, i resumed reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on my PC (wasnt able to buy the book, but i will buy it eventually!) which i started continuing reading the day before, monday. i think i finished it around 3am.

and to complete a full week of recollection, we now turn to monday where like today, nothing out of the ordinary. got succession and tax. but when i got home to read PIL's assigned article of the International Law Association, i read Harry Potter instead since it was going to be released by wednesday, july 11, and i better finish it so i could get to watch the movie.

there, one full week of recollection.
