Season's over for Ateneo

I didn't think I'm gonna blog about it. The Ateneo-La Salle rivalry proved to be very much alive last Sunday when 23,000+ fans trooped to Araneta Coliseum to witness the final battle between the two universities for a place in the UAAP Season 70 finals. A lot of people didn't get in because tickets were sold out even days before. I am not an Atenista, also not a Lasalista. So whichever team wins is really a non-issue. I have a lot of friends in Ateneo but I wanted DLSU to win more than ADMU. Not because of the school, but simply because they are the better team. They are good offensively and excellent defensively. It's funny because people were thinking I was rooting for Ateneo because it's just beside Miriam College. Since when did proximity become the basis for choosing what team to cheer for?

The Shakey's V-League is back!

She's so gone

He has this notion that he's giving her everything this world has to offer. There was no reason for her to leave. Zilch. Nada. Why would she resign? What is she, crazy? Well, guess what. I smirked when my officemate finally had the gut to tell her boss she's leaving by the end of June. I was there. I even printed her resignation letter and I saw how her boss' face distorted when she blurted it out. There was no effing way he could have seen it coming. And that is what makes the whole thing sooo funny. Suddenly, the world reminded him that it doesn't revolve around him. That people could actually turn their back on him, just like that. Because there's a lot of better things in this life worth paying attention to.

She started working for the company the same day as I did. So she was my companion since day one. I told her I don't want her to go but I won't advice her not to. I really think she's better off away from you-know-who. But the setback is that I'm not accustomed to dealing with change that easy. That's why I try not to need anything from anybody. Life's easier that way.

Shakey's V-League.

The 2007 first conference of the Shakey's V-League has been recently concluded. UST Tigresses were champion. Last year, I blogged about it almost on every entry. I even went to the venue (Ateneo gym at that time, now they did it at The Arena in San Juan) to see the games live. I rooted for San Sebastian College and every team which faced La Salle. UST didn't play last year, the reason why DLSU won the championship. I was so sure about that and I still am. Proof? UST was back this season and DLSU didn't even reach the finals.
