Random Thoughts: Of basic courtesy, well-deserved recognition and back-to-law-school anxiety
It’s been a while since I posted my random thoughts and that’s not to say it’s a "kabawasan" in my average number of blogs monthly. Haha. Right Carla?
I must say, seeing familiar faces in the hallowed grounds of the UP Law Complex brought a really welcoming relief to the migraine that I was feeling brought about by the dripping enlistment sarcasm I had been expecting as early as three months back. Yes! Woohoo! Sarcasm brought about by certain people I’d rather not name for they’d be the ones I’d have to constantly woo for law school-related favors for the next… wah(!)… five years or so… Boohoo…

My dad placed third in the 2nd Jose Burgos Jr. Biotech Journalism Awards. The awarding ceremony was held at the Club Filipino while I was whining over the non-movement of the enlistment line in Malcolm Hall.
I am truly proud to say that my dad, Felicisimo "Momoy" B. Cardenas, a senior correspondent of Manila Bulletin for the last two decades, deserves to have his "iron rich rice article", his lone and unexpected entry, recognized as one of the top three out of the 245 entries submitted. Words are not enough to explain how or why. Or tinatamad lang talaga ako. Haha.

TO THE RUDE JERK WHO WAS AMONG THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO MAKING MY SUMMER A REALLY GLOOMY ONE: And so I thought my day would end up right. The worst feeling is being ignored. Basic courtesy lang naman. I am not hoping or even praying that your time will soon come but somehow, the law of karma will catch up with you so I suggest being very afraid as early as now.
