Why I’m a horseman:

Note to non-law students:
My barkada in law school is called the "Four horsemen". Though in reality, there’s 5 of us there. Complicated? Not really. Bobo lang isa sa amin sa math :)

You can check out our barkada friendster account through

Anyway, this next blog is a reproduction of what I wrote in our blog in that account :)

____OOO______________________OOO_______________________OOO______________________

Honestly,  I didn’t think that we’d become "us". The Courtship
stage was so brief that I couldn’t help but blush everytime I think
about it. And I thought i was raised a conservative. Then again, you
can’t help it when you realize that that special feeling inside you has
already consumed you and you’re just dying to express it.

So we aspired to become Master Debaters by coaching each other on debating tactics. Sometimes, we watched dvds or read magazines while practicing.

We’ve also Come out in
the open. Nagladlad. Lumabas. Nag-out. Oo, bakla kami. keber namin sa
inyo. che! How else can you explain our pathetic record with the
opposite sex?  Basura!

I’d like to introduce you guys to the cast of the Four Horsemen:

Remir Macatangay is
our leader. Our head tikbalang (as we call our president). No, it’s not
because he’s often mistaken as one (promise, once lang tlga nangyari
un). Sa gwapo niyang yan, mahiya naman kayo na naisip niyo yun in the
first place.

Galit sha sa mga Chubbs. Especially those na nakikita niyang nag i ice-cream. One time, naglagay sha ng flyers ng Latasia sa bag ng dalawang (lower year) law students. Hindi sha kinausap for 2 weeks after that.

He also prides himself in being the best comedian among us. Sabi niya, "dapat naman funny ako. Kung hindi pa ako naging funny, eh pano na yun? eh di gandang lalaki na lang ang meron ako?" Minsan masarap sha sapakin sa mukha. Ganun ang lambingan naming magbabarkada :)

Emer is our Master Debater
(and lover as well). It’s just that no one wants to reciprocate his
feelings. Matalino naman sha. Sobra! Mabait pa, caring, sweet. Cute din
daw sha sabi ng mom niya. I’ve spoken to  her. True story. Wag lang daw
mag b bonnet anak niya kasi nagmumukang
Turon.
        BTW, hindi rin totoo that he’s tried to commit suicide before. He just wanted to see if matalas yung knife. In fairness,
parang butter daw wrist niya. Soft skin sha coz he uses aloe vera lotion.

Jon
is our enforcer. Lakas kasi body niya. Dati shang pulis sa Marinduque. Kuro-kuro lang yun. Hindi talaga ako sigurado. May tatoo sha. Batang city jail. Tambayan daw niya nung bata sha.

    Di sha mahilig sa mga blogs. Lalo na sa mga pinagsasabi ko. So maybe I should shut up now. Baka magdilim ang paningin niya.

Si Christian ang pinakamayabang
sa aming magkakaibigan. Sha daw kasi pinaka gwapo. Magaling sha mag
recit sa class namin. Everytime natatawag sha, he kisses his biceps and
whispers
"Ben Wallace" before standing up. Buenas daw yun. Good luck charm ba. Favorite term niya "Dami-dami". As in, "Ang dami-dami namang pinapagawa" or "ang dami-dami namang digests".

Pag may naririnig din shang nag-e-english
sa tabi niya, Umiinit ulo niya. Seryoso to.  One time when we were in
Bicol, we overheard a blockmate of ours converse with an English speaking actor. It went
something like this:

Lady Blockmate: We saw a whale shark as big a car!! (at the same time gesticulating wildly)
Sid lucero: That’s nothing, I saw one as big a bus!
Lady Blockmate: No shit?!
Sid Lucero: Shit, Yeah!!!

Christian walking away muttered: Yeah, yeah, whatever whatever. 
(all the while flashing his gangsta sign, using his fingers)

The last and probably the least among us, is of course, myself.

Before law school,
ang tingin ko sa sarili ko, mabait ako. Matalino. Good writer.
Athletic. Magaling kumanta at sumayaw. Sometimes, I even hear a few
stray
 "you’re not so bad-looking if I just squint my eyes, like so.". Sa loob-loob ko, eh kung pumikit ka na lang din kaya nang tuluyan?!!? Basura ka. BEACH.

Again, that was before law school. Dito sa eskwelahang ito, dalawa lang ang image ko. Taga-bakod, o di kaya Basura.  Neither of which, is true.

Nakatawa lang ako pero naiinis ako. hehehhehhehehhe
____OOO______________________OOO_______________________OOO______________________

In fairness to us, it is rare that we’re collectively branded as a
snobbish group. More often than not, we go out of our way to talk to
people in law school. Maybe it’s because we’re becoming more and more
sentimental since we’re about to graduate in a couple of months. Ngayon
pa lang, we already miss some of the people we’ve gotten to know.

yes, including the lower year students we’ve gotten to know and love :)
(kung madalas ka naming lokohin, isa ka na dun)

Now do I need to answer the question "Why am I a horseman?"? Read the transcript above. I believe it has become rhetorical.

in other words…
Masaya di ba? San ka pa? (where are you more) :)

blazing a trail,
julzboy the goodboy

motto for life: barkada lang walang ilangan. wengs lang, walang mahalan.

ewan ko ba dito kay emer. parating na b break yung motto namin. hehe :)
