updates

so i haven't posted anything in a while. between preparing my sister's surprise debut, teaching and, oh yeah, working, i didn't really have much free time for myself. it was all candles, papers, seashells, class list, buffet menu, quizzes, layouts, avps, and ops scheds. but all that's over now. well, at least the debut part. hooray for me. another successful debut concluded satisfactorily. i might have prospective clients after that event. maybe i'll become a wedding planner someday. heh. the poor couples. natch!

i'm uber glad that bubu appreciated it. regardless of the fact that several boobs weren't there to celebrate her birthday with her, i could tell that she had fun. but thank the good lord i only have one sister to spoil.

my fledgling career as an instructor was off to a good start... i think. my potty mouth didn't rear its not-so-ugly head up, i didn't spew venom and my class stayed in their seats until the bell rang, so that's a pretty good start. i'm giving them their second quiz tomorrow. i do believe they are starting to dread my quizzes. i wonder why...

i have this little, fluffy theory percolating in my head. hopefully, i'll be able to understand its significance soon enough.

ma famille et moi will be going to el nido for a vacation. yay!!! december 22-29 will see me skinny dipping in palawan with a hot brazilian guy. (wow, it just occurred to me that i haven't thought of my prototypical brazilian guy for ages... maybe it's because i've been thinking of shifting to another archetype... natch!) haha! anyway, i'm really glad i decided against the eurotrip with my bro; at least this way, the family will get to spend christmas and new year together, unlike last year when i was in strasbourg and they were in hong kong disneyland. i think i can bear to stay away from europe for a couple more years... maybe less. let's see.

ok, back to quantitative methods...
