Before Inebriety

There was no way this guy would fumble in his thesis defense. He was just too confident about his work, his gift of gab, and by the fact that he is himself. In fact, he was confident enough to wear a solid red shirt and pink tie under his coat (to distract the panelists, I think). :-p

Facing Sabio, Elicano and Chan-Gonzaga (a 'revisionist' trio), gummibears endured 40 minutes of questioning to earn his juris doctor. He was, thereafter, called back into the room to be informed that his thesis, with a few modifications, could very well be a master's thesis.

Like the evolution of man, Gumabon's J.D. was inevitable. It was never a condition, but merely a term.

Doctor Gumabon, congratulations! (pero fucker ka! mejo nakaka-pressure ang defense mo)

P.S. You are invited to Gumab's J.D. party at Good Earth on Friday. Atty. Robles will be bringing lechon. :) Inuman na!

I was set on posting Rivermaya's Kisap-mata as Tipsy's song of the month, until I heard the Wreckers' 'Leave the Pieces' on my way to school. Sapul eh!

Leave The Pieces
The Wreckers

You're not sure that you love me
But you're not sure enough to let me go
Baby it ain't fair
You know you just keep me hanging 'round
You say you don't wanna hurt me
Don't wanna see my tears
So why are you still standing here
Just watching me drown

And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just, take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

Now you can drag out the heartache
Baby you can make it quick
Really get it over with and just let me move on
Don't concern yourself with this mess you left for me
I can clean it up you see
Just as long as you're gone

And it's alright, yeah, I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just, take your love and hit the road
There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

You're not making up your mind
It's killin' me
You're wasting time
I need so much more than that

Leave the pieces when you go
Leave the pieces when you go

Driving away from the wreck of the day
And the light's always red in the rear view
Desperately close to a coffin of hope
I'd cheat destiny just to be near you

If this is giving up, then I'm giving up
Giving up on love

Driving away from the wreck of the day
And I'm thinking 'bout calling on Jesus'
Cause love doesn't hurt so I know I'm not falling in love
I'm just falling to pieces

If this is giving up, then I'm giving up
Giving up on love

And maybe I'm not up for being a victim of love
When all my resistance will never be distance enough

So I'm giving up
I'm giving up on love...

An apple a day is too expensive.
An apple a day makes seven apples a week.(really expensive).
Unless, its a donation inter vivos!

Sec 1. Love is a negotiable instrument when it conforms to the following requirements:

1. It is written in the heart and signed by the maker;

2. Must contain an unconditional promise of affection that will certainly involve effort and money;

3. Must be reciprocable on demand or at a fixed or determinable future time;

4. Must be reciprocable to bearer;

5. Must be addressed to a holder who must be named or otherwise indicated with reasonable certainty.

Sec 2. An unqualified promise of affection is unconditional though coupled with a statement of the transaction which gives rise to the instrument.

Sec 3. Holder of a Heart in Due Course -

A holder of a heart in due course is a holder who has taken the heart under the following conditions:

1. that it is complete and regular on its face;

2. that she became the holder of it before it was broken;

3. that she took it in good faith and for value;

4. that at the time it was negotiated to her, she had no notice of any infirmity in the instrument or defect in the title of the person negotiating it.

Tipsy, bakit mo pinapahirapan sarili mo?

My dear... everything in life that was of great value always came at a price. You're worth it.

Tipsy, bakit mo ako ginugulo?

I don't mean to... but I'd rather you hate me than you forget about me... But I'd rather you just be with me.

Tipsy, why is history repeating itself?

Maybe because we're just delaying the inevitable thus we find ourselves right back where we started. Maybe because we should have taken a different path from what we chose. Maybe because there's something really there that is 'undeniable' and fate wants us to find it. Maybe because I love history. Maybe because we never learn... Maybe we finally need to learn it this time. :)
