Humanities Week: off to a great start? I don't think so.

It's all in the title. I really didn't like the way the week started. For one, they made us stand under the blazing sun for nearly an hour before even starting the "parade", which really pissed me off. After that, we had to watch a performance by maskara, and then the talent show.

...they really didn't expect us to play nice, right? during the parade, we sneaked away from the line and made a beeline for the cafeteria. We bought some drinks, and then just stayed there. After a while, some of the COs went to the cafeteria and shouted at all of us to go back to the field. Well, now they told us, right? So we went as instructed, and suffered another hour under the sun.

There was a short break, and after that, the games commenced. First up was tug of war, then some weird game which i forgot the name of that involves a rope and fifteen people racing towards the finish line. Next up was a weird chopsticks/calamansi game. Last was Premyo o Bayong, which is like the original Pera o Bayong game by MTB.

After the games, there wasn't much to do anymore. Some of us didn't know where the tree planting was, and opted to stay in the front lobby, cafeteria, or gazebos. There was a darts tournament in the front lobby.

We practiced for dikum at about 3:30. Later, I accompanied a friend to the math unit to see Sir Mardan. We arrived there, and no one seemed to be there. We looked into the "restricted area", and found a pair of feet on the couch. We approached it, and found Sir Mardan asleep. I whispered to my friend that I need to get my camera, and I told him not to wake Sir Mardan up. I ran towards my bag, got my camera out, and took a picture of Sir Mardan. Then I told my friend that he can now wake Sir Mardan up...but we couldn't. He was fast asleep. So we crept out of the math unit...with a trophy. :D:D:D
