summer concert 2005

i'd like to excuse myself from blogging for a while, but since i'm posting anyway, i might as well put in some stuff worth blogging about.

last night, i went to the company summer concert. i went there with ria, jay-anne, bogs, and ian. we're all from the same project. i got to know ria because she was one of the organizers of the AWSO. jay-anne is ria's ka-startgroup. i first met bogs when he tagged along with jun last company christmas party. ian is jay-anne's boyfriend.

the concert started lame. sugar-free could have had a better crowd. kitchie got a little more. rivermaya's crowd was the wildest. it must've been the beer. lol

that's it. au revoir!

catcher in the rye

"We studied the Egyptians from November 4th to December 2nd," he said. "You chose to write about them for the optional essay question. Would you care to hear what you had to say?"

"No, sir, not very much," I said.

He read it anyway, though. You can't stop a teacher when they want to do something. They just do it.


The Egyptians were an ancient race of Caucasians residing in one of the northern sections of Africa. The latter as we all know is the largest continent in the Eastern Hemisphere.

I had to sit there and listen to that crap. It certainly was a dirty trick.

The Egyptians are extremely interesting to us today for various reasons. Modern sciences would still like to know what the secret ingredients were that the Egyptians used when they wrapped up dead people so that their faces would not rot for innumerable centuries. This interesting riddle is still quite a challenge to modern science in the twentieth century.

He stopped reading and put my paper down. I was beginning to sort of hate him. "Your essay, shall we say, ends there," he said in this very sarcastic voice. You wouldn't think such an old guy would be so sarcastic and all. "However, you dropped me a little note, at the bottom of the page," he said.

"I know I did," I said. I said it very fast because I wanted to stop him before he started reading that out loud. But you couldn't stop him. He was hot as a firecracker.


DEAR MR. SPENCER [he read out loud]. That is all I know about the Egyptians. I can't seem to get very interested in them although your lectures are very interesting. It is alright with me if you flunk me though as I'm flunking everything else except English anyway. Respectfully yours, HOLDEN CAULFIELD.


He put me goddam paper down then and looked at me like he'd just beaten hell out of me in ping-pong or something.
