So super kumita ang Manila Zoo dahil sa La Salle!
Hehe...Grabe... ang fun kasi ang daming animals! Tapos aasarin ako ni Paul kasi aliw na aliw ako sa animals... Ang cute eh... I wanted to bring home with me the elephant, the zebra, the sheep, the ostrich, the goose, the ducks, the peacocks, the chicken looking animal pero hindi, the stork and other birds! Weee...!!! Major fun. Woohoo! ♥ ♥ ♥ Pwede bang sakalin si Jeff Ko and Jorelle? Wala namang jeep na masasakyan eh! Joke talaga kayo. Goshness, we walked from Gox, to Starbucks tapos paikot going to Manila Zoo! Buti na lang naaalala ko pa pano pumunta dun coz nung 4th year ako, nagpunta kami dun kasama yung mga kids na vinisit namin sa day care center. Hehe... Tapos wala ring jeep from Manila Zoo going to Quirino station! Grr... It's ok with me namang mag lakad eh. Ayaw ko lang mag lakad ng sobrang tirik ng araw! Goshness 2 pm naglalakad ako sa busy street? E di siyempre mas mainit coz nagbbounce yung heat ng cars sa cement to our bodies! Woohoo ang init. Grr.So while we were walking papuntang Quirino station, I dropped by Pan de Manila and bought 6 pandesals. 4.50 each. Mahal noh. Pero ok lang. Masarap naman siya compared to other pandesals. Hehe. :)Yun lang. Ang fun! :) ♥ ♥ ♥

Now that you have read sassyxan's version, here's mine:
We walked to Manila Zoo, which is near Lasalle by car, but not on foot. We knew that we were near Manila Zoo when we smelled the pungent aroma from the animals. Wonderful... Php. 20.00 is the cost of a very few animals, empty cages, incomplete information about the animals, stink, bites from unknown insects and more than an hour of long walk under the hot sun. If you wish to take pictures with the animals or even touch it (by entering the kinder zoo) you are charged an additional Php. 40.00. Wow... Business Strategy of Mnaila Zoo, somehow get the LBYBIOS profs to require their student to do field work in Manila Zoo. Then, you'd get tons of visitors, since that's the only way to get me to go there. Bea and I can't help but compare Manila Zoo to Avilon Zoo in Taytay, Rizal (it is after all the biggest zoo in the Philippines and boasts a larger collection of animals, as far as we are concerned).
And those are the reasons why I am currently in the Lab G206, researching on the different species of animals. Once again, wonderful.
Enough of the Zoo, yesterday was my sis' birthday, my little sis was singing "Happy Bday to you, Hsiao Wei went to the zoo..."
In relation to my sis' bday, I went to Greenhills after the trip to the Zoo. Greenhills, more specifically Promenade and the new Virramall (but I'm not sure if it is still called Virramall) is really turning into a pretty cool scene. Anyway, I bought Decadence cake (yup, it is one of those comfort foods that satisfies cravings, love it!) from Goodies and Sweets, which costs Php. 95.00, kind of expensive for a small piece of cake. Then, I went to Fully Booked and bought Dave Pelzer's brother's new book, A Brother's Journey, and Jo's Boys by Louisa May Alcott as my big sis' gift. Big expenses, good thing I found in the depths of my stuff an angpao from Joyce from my Bday.
Then, when I got home, I went out agian with my mom and big sis to buy yet another cake (a bigger one) from Cake2Go, which is near our house. We had them deliver this yummy Strawberry- Chocolate cake!!! Yummy as it is Pretty. Even took pictures of it.
Other things that I am also doing right now (yup, am a multitasker) research on Ternary Search and Modified Binary Search for DASALGO. (yup, am a nerd)
Hmm... had an exercise in OBJECTP, don't remember much about it, aside from Gummy Bears and Berry Juice (just kidding, I think there was something about inheritance, aggregation, object, class etc.)
I downloaded all the ppt slides from the different subjects. Advantages of being in a university that is considerably hi- tech: no need to take down notes, just download the power point slides from the FTP or IVLE site. Btw, a correction, the FTP site for OBJECTP is http://ccs1.dlsu.edu.ph/class_files/courses/OBJECTP (accg. to Gina).

Other things on my mind:
Movies that I want to watch: Chronicles of Narnia and Underworld 2 (love vampires).
Annie (li'l sis) borrowed Left Behind the book and the movie, will probably watch later.

Anything else? I guess...
Now I'm writing just to let you know that I'm still alive
I'm still alive

Dedicated to Paul and those who thought my blog had officially died.
