the ID adventure

yes..i lost my old Id. crap..what a hassle, 1 more sem to go and i lost it..i admit i am burara, and i have short term memory loss, due to the operations i had when i was a child (side-effects of anesthesia)
so today was supposed to be a rest day, but then i decided to go to school and get a new one..
  • so first i went to Sir Ligan to get his signature, took my practicum report..
  • second, went to OSA to get the second signature..darnnnit..but it was fast though
  • third go to the main building to get the signature of the Sec. Gen..which was actually a stamp..i think mr. sec. gen, doesn't even know that he signed my papers..haha =)
  • fourth..pay 200php at the cashier's office which was a few steps from the Sec. Gen window..and then BAM!
it was closed..lunch break..and they resume at 1:00pm..by the way it was only 11:30..damn..
i met with my dear friend Lah..but that was minutes ago when Sir Ligan signed my papers..and then we parted ways..because i had to deal with all the turmoil of walking back and forth..back and forth..back and forth..haha
all alone..with no one to talk to..what shall i do when i feel so lonely..haha..well go to the HUGE UST library..an orphanage for long lost books dating back to the spanish era! cool right? teehee

so first i went to this Lorenzo-thing..and looked up some books that i wanted to read..unfortunately they only had books for "research"..
this is one of the cabinets at the humanities section i think they have dozens..
so i found books about the holocaust..and BAM! its at the humanities section..ok so i went there and found the book..but it was boring so i looked around for more  interesting things to read..


first book i saw:
Fables and Fairytales(i don't think it's the right title,,but anyway..) by Hans Christian Andersen..niiiiiice..=)









so i was looking through the table of contents..i wanted to read the little mermaid
i'm a real fan of this story..but then when i went to the page indicated at the table of contents..i just..uhm gasped..

some loser, tore the whole story off..ok so what-to-do..find another story..i guess.haha















 
and then i started reading:
the little match girl..it was..uhmm..okay..












and then i tried:
..this i started to fall asleep..in the first page..haha..so i didn't finish reading it..and i returned the book back..









and took another book..
and i tried to read prince and pauper..but then i think just dozed off..

and then at 1 o'clock..i went to the main bldg..paid 200..went back to the TYK bldg..got my ID printed..and then took a deep breath..and exhaled..aaaaaaaaaahhh..my feet hurt..=) and then i saw kathy..another friend of mine..said hi and went home..
by the way..here's my new ID..it has this cool shiny thing..i think its a hologram(am i right?)of the 400 years of UST..
 
(sorry for all the low quality pics..took them with my loser 2 megapixel phone)haha

the boy in the striped pyjamas



i first read about this book in the local newspaper here. there was a book review about another book by the same author JOHN BOYNE..

i think i want to grab one of those books now..namely: the boy in thr striped pyjamas, and the house of special purpose...both about my 2 most favorite topics in history..the holocaust, and the missing Princess ANASTACIA.

so here it goes, i couldn't find the book on "fullybooked online" as well as national bookstore's online site. but i managed to watch the 2008 film on youtube

daaaarn! 9 whole parts with 10 minutes each.. THANK GOD for DSL..if i was on dial-up i would've given up sooner..

so here's bruno

cute right?..i like how pale he is..and his eyes..


and shmuel (read as SHMOLE)















it's a story about innocence, and the reality that despite being friends..they were supposed to be..uhm..err...enemies,

well shmuel was a jew, and bruno was the son of a Nazi soldier..go figure!

so how it ended..sad..yes but it wasn't sad enough to bring me to tears or anyfing..bruno volunteered to look for shmuel's papa(he's been missing, i think he's dead by that time). so bruno borrowed the "jew" clothes from shmuel and decided to look or "explore" inside the camp.
 
unfortunately, they both found themselves dragged along this group of men, being led to the gas chamber. as 8 year olds..they didn't know what this was..they even thought they where going to have a shower..(i think)..i think you already know what happened..
so bruno's family go looking for him..seeing his real clothes outside the fence..bruno's dad goes inside the camp, realizing his son is nowhere to be found..he soon realizes the smoke coming from the gas chamber..
the end
p.s. if you ever get to watch the movie you'll realize that the only real german in the movie is the dog..all the actors where british..teehee..=)
