stream of unconciousness

yup, month of my birthday, what have i dont to celebrate?  well, i didn’t exactly have a party or anything, but i HAVE been having scattered impromptu drinking sesssions with some people (to the others, sorry if di ko pa kayo nalilibre).  i realize that september isn’t the best time to have a party when you’re a law student, it’s the month of the bar, so you’ll have major problems getting people to go to your celebration, another reason (main) is that it’s just WAAAAY to lame to go up to your parents and say: "can i have a little extra money this month so i can treat my friends out?"  yeah i know, i’m sure it wont be that big deal to my parents, in fact they might even be happy be happy i even HAVE friends to treat out.  i just dont like the idea of a 24 year-old asking his parents for money to blow on booze and pulutan (ok lang pag 23).  it’s ok if you’re working since, hey, you’ve earned it, do whatever you want with your money; but not if your a student living off your parents for the past 24 years of your existence.  i actually appreciate working people painums more than the usual parent-funded ones.  i mean, these are people who literally worked for the beer you’re chugging.  so thanks, to all you working people who’ve ever bought me a beer.

anyway, where was i, so there, a couple of inumans to celebrate my being born.  i used to have a more formal (not attire, i mean planned) birthday celebration, but its been almost impossible the past couple of years.  i WAS able to get some law school people to drink with me though, which is greatly appreciated btw, you know who you are.  i realize that some of you guys don’t exactly share my obsession with drinking and drunk conversations, so the fact that you guys even sat down for a couple of hours to do it with me really touched me….deeply….i’m talking proctologist deep here.  we have to drink more often, i mean, seriously, if we can’t drink when we’re law students, when CAN we drink??  when we’re lawyers?  HAH!  lotsaluck.  When we’re older and more stable?  maybe, but by that time we’ll be having health problems already, and be too scared of dying coz we have a family that relies on the income we generate.  i’m thinking, we drink A LOT while we’re young, LESS when we’re old, and back to A LOT again in heaven (hopefully meron dun).  (cut to 10 years from now in an AA meeting:  "Hi, my name is al (hi al!), i’m an alchoholic")

ok, i gottaget some sleep. before that though, i’m gonna try to list down 4 things i’ve learned in the past 24 years (no im not going to list down the usual, spend time with your family, love yourself, go to mass apcray) :

1.  certain people will NOT like you no matter what you do.

2.  Respect your friends. (don’t make them look like asses in front of other people)

3.  have a sense of humor. (especially about yourself)

4.  have flaws, but make sure they don’t affect other people (it’s ok to be a moron, but dont leave the car running in the garage while ur buddy’s sleeping inside)
