First, the good news: I’ve finally been accepted into a dormitory! I got accepted at Ipil Residence Hall according to the July 9 batch of results.
Now, the bad news: I’ll be a tambay-boy at Molave forever! (Well, maybe not forever… *wink wink*)

It’s almost been a month since classes had started (and I still haven’t got a dorm slot; I don’t know if I should still be hoping to get one this late). This Wednesday will be our first long examination in Math 54 (Calculus II). I hope I pass the exam with flying colors.
I’ve been suffering from a cold until now, although it’s not as worse as last week. Last Monday, I had a slight fever, but it’s pretty minor, and I was feeling better again the next day. Thanks to my friends for their concern. I’m getting better every day. I’ll make sure to return the favor if ever any of you guys were to get sick.
This week’s been pretty boring overall, part of it thanks to my cold.
By the way, happy birthday to Brendalyn Javier (18th birthday) and Jam Fallaria (17th). When will you two be treating me? Just kidding.
