Successful defense

Jen, Jasper, Katkat, and Sha all successfully defended their senior thesis! Congratulations!

Metaphor of absence

Last friday, a faculty's cubicle is empty. Nobody bothers. Another faculty declares that it is not unusual. For a long time, she's quite hard to find whenever it's her birthday.

This time however is different.

She's migrating with her husband and kids to Canada this October. Her absence last friday is a foreshadow. I think the college will miss a friend. The college will miss a faculty who for a long time worked hard in keeping the department intact and running smoothly. The college will miss a faculty who always submits her grade reports on time (actually, most of the time earlier than the due date). She mastered teaching discrete math with linear algebra and computer-aided statistics. She always come to class prepared. There was a time I worried that she's working too hard and that her blood pressure might shoot up because of n concerns in the department (btw, n approaches infinity).

I wish her and her family all the best in their adventure at the other side of the world. I have been there and life there is quite good.

1 point

.. and that my friend seals the fate to meet the tigers. hehe

UPDATE: The blue eagles (69 pts) won the knockout game vs the tigers (64 pts).

Time out

It's nice to play bowling with Rey, Josh, Froi, and JP. We even made it to the final round of the competition. We are assured of 3rd runner-up. heheh.

1-1

The hokies were simply overwhelmed by the tigers. In 2002, I saw how the hokies embarrassed the then nationally ranked tigers by winning 26-8. It was the first time I watched a football game at the Lane stadium. Today, the hokies just managed 7 points against the tigers's 48. Game recap is here.

Get Real J!

Just saw this at www.phdcomics.com. I'm not quite sure if I'd laugh or not. ;-D



Teaching is a real job. .. right? heheh.

...and I'm quite happy here.

Routing maroons!

beating the katipunan rivals would ensure a match with the taft guys during the semis.

UPDATE: Slow start but the eagles prevailed. ;-)

UPDATE: I was wrong. Two more games to go.
