Anti-English Sentiments

Posted by: Eunice on: June 28, 2004

“One thing we do is put too much pressure on ourselves. We tend to hype them up at home and make people believe they are potential winners. One day they will be but the reality is that we are a last-eight team in world terms and we’ve lived up to that once again.”
It’s about [...]

Ad Infinitum

Posted by: Eunice on: June 27, 2004

I’m not accustomed to being at home on a Sunday. Even in Bacolod, I’m usually out with my parents or with my nephew. So when Dad announced that he had a basketball game this afternoon, I was pissed off. We were supposed to be looking for a living room couch (my parents are moving to [...]

F is For Football and F1

Posted by: Eunice on: June 27, 2004

Sweet.
Though I’d still be rooting for Portugal in the semifinals match against Holland.
I might get the new Holland and Portugal jerseys available on retail in Nike. Nike jerseys seem to be made of lighter materials (Dri-Fit, I presume) than that of Adidas (ClimaCool). The Real Madrid jersey is so mainit and malagkit when worn for [...]

Algebraic Dreaming

Posted by: Eunice on: June 26, 2004

Just a few pictures. I’m dead tired and I desperately want to hit the sack.
But I have to finish my ALGEBX homework. I have to find the complete factors of 25 trinomials.
Mel, you are right. Math is a blast! Let’s celebrate your A and my 3.5!

Enough said.

My beat-up pair of stripey sneakers.

Magazine stand.

Iodized salt.

More iodized [...]

Not Good, Not Good

Posted by: Eunice on: June 26, 2004

I was talking to my friends while riding in an escalator in Glorietta after lunch when a couple of men behind us suddenly made parinig.
Man 1: Linti! Mga estudyante gid tuod ah. Pila pa lang ka bulan sa Manila indi na kabalo mag Ilonggo!
Man 2: Amo gid! Daw si sin-o na kay ari na di. [...]

Curse The Heavens If You May

Posted by: Eunice on: June 26, 2004

I said this an hour ago and I’m saying this again…
Fuck.
Can the French bring back Roger Lemerre as manager? I don’t think so but then again, the team was way better when he was manager.
So. Which team will I be rooting for then? Holland? Portugal?
Definitely Portugal.
Viveo!
I’m off to school for now. More football crap later.

History’s Not On Their Side

Posted by: Eunice on: June 25, 2004

P: The English didn’t win because history is against them.
Me: Elaborate.
P: Remember when Gareth Southgate missed a free kick in Euro 96?
Me: So?
P: Look at it this way, Gareth Southgate in the semis in 96 is David Beckham in the quarterfinals in 04.
Me: Eh. Biased ka lang because maka-Portugal ka.
P: Seriously, David Beckham missed a [...]

Yes, More Football

Posted by: Eunice on: June 25, 2004

Oh well, Viveo Portugal!
It has been a long, long wait for the men of Portugal’s Golden Generation.
The Portuguese have waited so long for their so-called golden generation to deliver that the great survivors from the fabled group of prodigies, whose triumph in the World Youth Championship of 1989 was felt to be only the prelude, [...]

Songs of Hope for a Better Future

Posted by: Eunice on: June 24, 2004

I’m singing songs of hope in a time when most of my fellowmen have lost all of it.
Why?
Because it’s disheartening to think that Filipinos think our country is going to the dogs. I know, I feel the same way as they do.
Now that GMA is President again, we face the possibility that Dad might leave [...]

Oi, Artista

Posted by: Eunice on: June 24, 2004

I saw Sunshine Dizon sa lobby ng AKIC. She was standing on top of the stairs leading to AKIC’s entrance and she was texting with her P900. Eh…
Congratulations, Mrs. Macapagal. Pangulo ka na again.
Sige, mag EDSA na tayo. So that walang pasok. Feh.
