so here i am at tina's condo. I swear this is probably where i'll end up crashing for the rest of my college life. I should be going home but... uhm... no. I'll hang out here for a while. i mean, why go back to that place when i feel so at home right now right here. 

Tina and Pao have this amazing thing going for them. I know so little about the situation but i mean, all i really need to know is that they're having some good fun together for now... I admire that they're taking their time on these things. I mean, Pado is such a gentleman. And tina's this lovely princess who deserves the world. I know that Pado would gladly do that--give her the world... which brings me to my next point...

I don't want the world. Nor do I need it. besides, i doubt i deserve it. Anyways! what i'm trying to say is this:  I could be anywhere and i'd be just as happy. all i need is the people who make my life magic everyday. i found them at orsem. but only realized it. the campus is magic. With it's never ending green. Even the cigarette butts scattered over the "cemented area" in the smocket are beautiful. See!? I've become this optimistic never-ending ball of energy--that's not usually the case with me. But look at me now! Here I am, grinning from ear to ear, enjoying every minute of this spell i'm under. 

I was worried about vince earlier. I mean, he wasn't smiling the way he usually does. He wasn't laughing nor was he telling jokes the way he does... don't ask me why i notice these things he does. i just do. So my immedeat thought was that something was wrong. Finding out that he was just serious about a test was a little hard to digest--not the fact that he was serious (though that is a rare thing!). what surprised me is that I was genuinely worried. And for a moment, my energy level dropped. i dedicated 5 minutes to pondering--wondering what could be wrong. i cared. i cared a little more than i should have. but this might be what reveals a simple fact. unfortunately, this fact was not only realized by myself... but everyone else. am i really that easy to read? eventually i'll give up trying to hide... if, that is, i AM hiding it. 

I'm proud of the fact that i'm finally starting to get my act together in terms of school. I'm pretty confident that my minipaper for lit is going to kick ass. that's a good thing. i mean, our minipapers count for 20% of our grades! now if only i could keep at this, i could get a much-needed scholarship. pray for me everyone!


i'm beginning to wonder what on earth i might do if i were to ever get kicked out of ateneo. Now that i've built my life on what happens here--in this wonderful new world. leaving would throw me into such sadness that i'd probably stop living all together.

I think about it and I know that it feels right. EVERYTHING feels right. This is the first time in so long that I haven't had to overthink it all. I know what i want. I know what I have to do to get it. I don't feel like i'm doing something stupid. I don't feel like this could at all be a mistake. 

I tought that college would be confusing--a blurr of scary stress and backbiting "friends''--people being nasty. I was wrong. This "college experience" that's been handed over to me by the Father himself has changed me completely. These people that I only met last month--they seem to me like old friends--the ones you know from kindergarten. Every moment I'm with them I silently thank God for sending me such perfect angels. I can't get enough of them

the ff, are those who've touched me in profound and magical ways


:::MEG:::
gorgeous--inside and out. Among the first to befriend me in the block, she holds a special part of my heart. I can say with complete conviction that she will be the one I'll be celebrating graduation with--she'll be there at my wedding--she'll be one of my first child's ninangs. She'll be a part of my life for the duration of my years.
:::TINA:::
The sweet, the generous, the fantastic--Tina. Who else would put up with me passing out under her coffee table. Who knows what I would have done if she hadn't brought me to her condo that night I was too drunk to even remember where I was. 
:::PADO:::
adorable beyond words. This droopy-eyed man-candy (hands off girls he's already reserved for the wonderful tina) is always a pleasure to be around. When he's got nothing else to say to me he'll always just put on that blank face of his and go "hello...". He hasn't exactly shared any secrets with me, nor have i told him much about myself, but something tells me that if I needed help he'd be there--no questions asked (then again, i get the feeling any of them would--all the more to love them for)
:::PATRICK:::
the diva with a heart of gold. he'll never fail to make me feel gorgeous! This queen can put a smile on even the most serious of creatures. the piercing high-pitched "CHE!!!!" will forever echo in my head... 
:::RAI:::
I know she's older, but I feel the need to protect this little doll. with her bubbly personality and ever-available wise words, she'll always be special in my book. Again, one of the first to befriend me. 
:::DINO:::
this boy, with his crazy appeal, weird-ass jokes and CLUE-LESS-NESS in Bio will always be a memory that will stick with me. The most fun to watch when he's drunk. He can be quite an ass as a drunk. But we all know he doesn't mean it. 
:::VINCE:::
what can I say. Two weeks of getting to know him, and I'm hooked. No one else can send me into and insane fit of side-splitting laughter. I'm surprised I haven't gotten sick of him yet--i've spent so much time with him in the span of two weeks. I never really expected him to be....what he is. What is he?..... well, for one thing... he's black. His stories from da hood are just feeling-box-breaking, but i know that those trials in the ghetto have made him the strong person he is today. For another thing, he's hilarious. I wouldn't have guessed it had I not talked to him that fateful thursday. Every other word that comes out of his mouth could make you giggle for hours. what else? he cares. he really does. genuinely, i feel like he cares about me. Again, i get the feeling that if I needed help, he'd be there
:::PAPZ:::
the rainbow of the block, he never fails to get the party started. What would we do without this insane guy... blue babble papz, in my opinion is the pride of block E. he should be our mascot. Love love love the way he can turn any situation into something to laugh at.




There will be more, I promise... I still have many to mention. And so much more to thank all of you for.


Much Love,
Mikkie

at last, after what seemed like two decades of horrid confusion and flat-out hopelessness, all is settled with meg. No more drama I beg of the block. Atleast not until I start hitting the books with a clear purpose:learning. Then you can start your crazy bickering and i'll be too consumed by a pile of homework to even see the world beyond notes and readings. i mean not to say that i will no longer care. i care. and right now, i care about the sole fact that everything is perfectly fine--almost everything


yes, vince i talked to meg. all is well in our world once more! and BOOM the feelingbox--full to the brim.
