Domestic Partnership explained
4/08/06
By nature, i am a happy person. moody? suplado? corny? funny? well, those words can describe me too, depending on my mood. right now. i’m just happy. i can’t pinpoint one particular reason for my being so. i suppose i just am. 
i’ve received quite a number of messages asking me whether or not my status as being "in a domestic partnership" indicates that i am "off the market". haha. the answer is No. Not because i’m the type to play the field (i most certainly am not), but because i lost a bet and i had to indicate that i am in a domestic partnership (which i think basically just means a prolonged fling).
the object of the bet? i bet that no one actually reads blogs nor considers looking at the "status" of the people in their list. i lost by a large margin. i purposefully didn’t answer any of my friends’ queries regarding such status because otherwise, i would have had to pay an even stiffer penalty (honesty system haha). But basically, my mailbox was inundated with messages teasing me and asking me who the unlucky girl is. so there it is. wala pa.. rin. same old same old (baby pa kasi ako.. ndi pa ready hahahaha)
i’m now an incoming senior in the UP college of law. this schoolyear, we will actually be handling REAL cases and will be going in front of real judges to litigate our clients’ interests (this is legal by the way; Rules of Court Rule 138-A). i can hardly verbalize the feeling of dread that creeps within me everytime i hear the word OLA (office of legal aid). i am NOT ready to act (and be) like a lawyer. i don’t know anything yet. KERBY na ako. man, kung daily recitations nga lang kerby na, yun pa kaya? hahaha
some reasons to be happy:
–just came from bicol and totally enjoyed my stay there with my cuzzins and blockmates (i also went to Gubat, Sorsogon. saw some Esquivias clans there haha… i got goosebumps when i read my name in the stores )
–i get to go on an extended vaction with my family this summer (kapamliya hehe)
–i have the best bunch of friends… B-boys and C-mates (select blockmates lang ako close.. but it’s not because of a lack of effort) and some other non-law sch friends which prevent me from going crazy. Eagles Fortune hlky as well hehehehe
overheard in Donsol, Bicol:
Lady blockmate (gesticulating): we saw a whaleshark this big.
Psycho Sid: That’s nothing. I saw one as big as a bus!
Lady blockmate: No shit?!
Psyco Sid: Shit Yeah!!!!
Xtian walking away (muttering): yeah, whatever whatever.
