It's my roommate's birthday

Marco. Yes, that's his name. He used to be my dorm mate, too in Ipil Residence Hall last year. He was one of my respondents in a consumer research I did for my advertising class. I found him snobbish and that I won't mind him whenever he passes by our corridor. But I found him a very fashionable person- someone who can grab your attention just by his outfit.

This year, I must admit I was surprised that he is my room mate upon knowing my room. It was awkward, I must say that he is my room mate with the fact that I snob him at Ipil sometimes because I know he is also snobbish back then, but he welcomed me with a big smile here in our room. Now, I am blogging not on our encounter as roommates but today on his very special day- his birthday!

Marco and me on our wacky pose taken early this night.

Last night, I ordered two items at Bochi I thought that it's the easy way to get a thing for him for his birthday at exactly 12 midnight. So I waited until it was 12 and then greeted him. He said thank you. Then after a few seconds I handed him my simple gift- a Bogchi food box with a post-it above the box with "Happy 19th Birthday Marco!." I saw that he was happy, and I was happy seeing people happy. I thank God for allowing me make people happy. Anyway, he said "wow naman, thank you." I cannot count the times he said thank you last night.  
  
Tonight, I was surprised upon seeing a Banapple Cake on my table. He gave it to me. I smiled and thanked him. I grabbed my camera and took a photo of us to show my girlfriend Lyle and also took a photo of the cake (to be posted, soon). The taste of the cake was really great! I am still eating it now and it is really great! Now I feel shy with the gift I gave him last night with this. Anyway, what matters is that I remebered his special day, right? :)

So to my roommate Marco, cheers! It is our common age, 19!

Yakalista Again

I am officially back to Yakal Residence Hall yesterday when I moved all my things there. I immediately fixed my table and my room. I have a roommate named Marco- he was also a dorm mate back in Ipil. He is a Civil Engineering junior student. I was surprised to know that JayVee and Rye are my dorm mates! I talked with JayVee last night for a long time and he is still JayVee minus the gigantic confidence he used to have.

Yes, I am a Yakalista again. I feel better being surrounded by great and cool people.

I shall return

I wonder if I can still transfer to another dorm. I mean, I've been to Yakal last year and the memories I have had there are quit memorable though I wanted to have a focus in my academics and I think I can't have that in Yakal. Or who knows. I am thankful I've been accepted in a dormitory inside the campus.
