Strange but amusing. Got this from my classmate, Jera.
You're Betty Grable!

REALITY BITES
While my mom and sister are hooked on American Idol (also my classmate Jenny, whose post motivated me to do this one), I was more interested in another popular reality show, the Amazing Race 7.
A couple of posts back, I think, I mentioned that I was suppose to comment on the result of the Amazing Race 6. Well, it's simple really: Freddy and Kendra sucked.
I was disappointed that they won because I find them annoying, with all of those unnecessary bickering. Especially the first trip to Africa, when Kendra rudely commented on the unfortunate state of the city/town they visited. Since she's only a model, we can't really expect her to be open-minded of the plight of most African countries.
I was rooting for this team:
Cool Couple of Amazing Race 6
I liked Kris and Jon because they rarely fight, they worked together and they were respectful of the people and the culture they encounter along the race. Oh well.
***
Now, its the seventh season of the race and I bet this season will get more ratings that the last ones because of the these familiar faces:
Reality Show Veterans
In case you've been missing a lot of quality TV time, Rob and Amber former contestants (or castaways) of the popular Survivor series produced by Mark Burnett. Fans of Survivor might want to see how this couple can managed a race around the world.
While my sister may disagree, I wouldn't mind Rob and Amber winning this season (actually, according to an online poll in the Amazing Race 7's website, they are currently the fan favorite to win). Boston Rob honestly upholds the reality show/game credo: MUST WIN AT ALL COST. He's manipulative and sneaky, classic Survivor strategy indeed. Amber, who seems to be a nice girl, will perhaps try to keep things from getting messy for them. She could be the lucky charm of the group since she won the Survivor All-Star.
While Rob and Amber are seen as a major threat in the race, their presence obviously makes the show more interesting. Hope they won't get eliminated soon. Heheheh.

Omigulay!
It has been almost a MONTH since my last post! Valentines day pa...its already the middle of March...graduation fever na po.
Speaking of graduation...both my sister and brother will be graduating from college and highschool respectively. Wonderful, isn't it (especially for my parents, hehehe)? My bro's pretty psyched about college while my sister is making plans for her future career. I wish them both well. On the other hand, its also a sign that I am getting OLDER. Come this April...SILVER na ako..hehehe.
Also, more good news: Nakaka-first sem na ako sa grad school! Huwaw.It only seems like yesterday that I was fixing the necessary documents for my grad school application. How time flies when you are having...uh...fun? While it has been a blast, it was definitely a learning experience. I mean, while cramming seems to work back in college, in grad school...its not a very good idea. I like CRAMMED my last two papers. Ergo, the quality of the papers weren't good enough and I ended up submitting them just for the sake of completing my requirements. My assessment for this sem was okay, but I am not expecting high grades. For the summer (yes, may required subject po ako), I need to be serious about it. I just have the appropriate study aids:

The Working Student's Must-Haves...hehehehe.
The planner was a Christmas gift from my sister. I understood that you can't just BUY the planner itself, you can only get it by completing a number of stamps. Since my sister's a regular at Katipunan, it was pretty easy. Its a very special gift :). The tumbler I bought it myself. Sinadya ko na terno sila, hwehehehehe.

Hobbies
I realized that I don't share some details about myself in this blog, which, ironically, is suppose to be about me. Anyway, to make it simple, I'll just post pictures that might give the blogging community (who happens to drop by)ideas of what makes ConCon ConCon (GETZ?).
My gadgets: Palm Pilot m505, Nokia 5210, Sony Walkman and Canon A85 Powershot...actually its just the case.
