Back Track: February 2011

Because I feel a sense of ownership of February, I'm posting the highlights of my birth month. The past month felt loooooong for a supposedly short month.  Lots of surprises, ministerial prayers fulfilled supernaturally (couldn't think of a more fitting adverb), character stretching and molding, dreams coming to pass, sporadic episodes of heartaches, perky moods, uncalled for moodswings, and whatnots. 'Nuff of the words for now, I'll let the images do most of the talking.

Bannoffee Pie and carrot cake for my birthday. Friends from church dropped by the dormitory just about half an hour before my day officially ended and brought me carrot cake, which surprisingly (since I'm not a fan of carrots) was really good. And I mean really. My beloved seatmate gave me this yummy yummy yummy pie (not the original pie on the photo though 'coz I wasn't able to take a picture). I think I could live on Bannoffee for a week and not feel sick. This is the ultimate upper, I tell you.

 I am in the process of resuscitating my acads back to life.  It was futile for Oblicon last month (I have this month of March for a miracle) but it was not all in vain for Legal Theory at least. My highlights are proof of that, though I couldn't ever finish Sir H's readings! They're always just so long, but very resonant of PolSci.

 So the Dest Dlock Ever decided to pull a monito-monita Valentine's edition exchange gift. I super like what my monito gave me: the fourth book I got as a gift since December. This one goes to my To-read-list for the summer :)

 And because our block just wanted to make ourselves feel good on the day of hearts, we agreed to exert extra effort to look "good". I salute the guys who wore "Barong" to our Legal Profession class. :)) Crazy bunch of people, but I love 'em. We sure know how to spell our own F-U-N. ;)

 So my rowmates Ja and Wiggy had this insane (haha!) idea of binding themselves to a contract of finishing all of their Oblicon backlog before the end of the month.  If they were successful, I think they were gonna treat each other out or go on a spa date or something of the sort. Anyway, they decided to make me third party :) And of course, I wasn't really liable for any of the damages between them. In short, it was a win-win for me. If they were successful, I'd be thrilled for them. If they weren't, they were willing to play genie for me HAHA And I didn't think they were serious! But they were, to my surprise. Two bannoffee pies in one month. Aaah, love.

 One of the brightest highlights of last month is Destiny's Encounter Weekend! The team labeled it the best so far. I couldn't agree more. It was also my first time to preach in the Encounter! It was SUCH an amazing experience. I thank God for the opportunity to be used by Him. :) Oh happy day! Their lot was a happy one. Infectious, in fact. Congratulations ladies! See you in the Post Encounter!

 Now this last one's rather unexpected. My third Romance and Rhythm in Destiny was a pleasant surprise because in the first place, I didn't think there'd be one this year. My date gave me these bunch of pretties. I would've been content with the Stargazers ('coz they were my choicest variety), but they were surrounded with Gerbera Daisies, Mums, Carnations and another kind of lily. Eye-candy creation, eh? :)

So it's a wrap, then! February '11 is nothing short of an adventure, as what I pray the rest of my year would be. I'm definitely looking forward to the coming months. 'Til next time! Ciao for now! :)
