[College] Today was the day we skinned the poor neko. Lyn is my lab partner and we named ours, Tom. He had a white coat which we successfully removed in one piece. One of the other cats was pregnant and we’re wondering how many embryos Grace and Arvie will find. The formalin and sponging solution was terrible
but aside from that, skinning the cat was fun. BTW, today was the first time I ever touched a cat and it happened to be dead. How sad. But I told you, I am NOT a cat person.
[People] Most of the time, I am a pretty good judge of character. Sometime during senior year (HS), I think I lost my touch for a brief span of time. I got to know this guy at my old high school and he seemed like a cool guy who could overlook eccentricities but after some time, he turned into a garden variety jerk. What a disappointment! If I wanted to be treated like I belonged somewhere at the bottom of the food chain,
I would’ve just saved myself from a lot of misery and said: “Goodbye, cruel world!” Gah! I don’t know why I suddenly remembered him but oh!
[The Museum] Oh, before I forget! I went to The Museum at DLSU-M with Icy and Garie after CompAna. I loved the graphite on paper pieces by Carlos “Botong” Francisco and Fernando Amorsolo. There was also this black and white painting (just slashes of black and white, sort of like calligraphy) by Cesar Legaspi that I stared at for quite a while because it seemed so easy to create but there was definitely more to it that what you see at first glance. It was beautiful. Well, at least to me.
