spreading words

yet another movie. i'm right in the middle of watching hitch right now, the one with will smith. we paused for a while 'cause tita nui and miggy [my almost-2yo cuzn] are calling from thailand right now. so tito bong and they are catching up on stuff that has happened since they've left for bangkok last saturday.

meanwhile, i am typing this post... today was a fine day. but on my way to school the jeepney driver uttered

akala mo'y pusit/ you'd think it's a squid

to a fellow jeepney driver whose jeepney was smoke-belching. thick black unhygienic smoke. with that, i recalled something strange that i did six years ago, grade 5 back in elementary school. it was the height of the clean air act campaign back then and abs-cbn was asking everyone to sign-up for clean air. so i did. hehe armed with a pen, and sheets of bondpaper i asked for everyone's [the administrator, teachers, schoolmates, parents, yayas] signature. i think i gathered a hundred or so. but i just left it in some storage box after, didn't reach the "authorities". but you'd get a strange sense of accomplishment after each signature, each complement, each smile. things were a lot less complicated back then that all it took for me to clean the air was a couple of signatures. six years later i'm in a much much dirtier metro with much much dirtier air. boohoo

itm11 class was much more interesting than usual today. maybe because it's almost over. shark and riva and nikki and chrissy and geric just laughing or friendstering. went to cello's after with rj and marco and learned that they're opening their second branch at taft! woohoo spreading the doughnut goodness only cello's can give. spread the word!! ehem.

yas emailed me about gawad kalinga's acting workshop. which i found cool 'cause it sort of incorporates what i started doing this summer- playshopping and gkalinga-ing. for gk, i don't wanna carry hollow blocks or sift sand like what we do during gk nstp class but i wanna write and "spread the good news", "be heralds", "inspire not sell" which i started weeks ago and i wrote about here. and this theater thing for gk payatas teens is something i really look forward to. cool cool. it got moved to june instead of tomorrow.

kakki was looking for someone who could be word, as in microsoft word. i said yes. blue rep's gotta do a show for microsoft to spread the word about microsoft office programs and bluerep is gonna do it ala-TheWiz [a motown musical]. this should be cool.

back to hitch. i think it's funny, gets corny at times but the script is good. years ago i was condemning jb for watching pirated dvds. i'm not complaining now. maybe soon when i can afford for myself.
