• UST's loss last Sunday against Ateneo at the start of the UAAP Final Four left a bitter taste in the mouth as it ended a once-promising season for the defending champion Tigers. Coach Pido was seen crying on TV and he should be. He knows his team is much better than the Ateneo team that just beat them. Well, welcome to the real world Coach. You can't win 'em all. And besides, there's always next year.
• As if UST's loss last Sunday wasn't enough, Letran, Chabs' employer lost to San Beda last night making Beda back-to-back champs. But this time, there's no shame in being second. Letran wasn't even supposed to be playing in the finals. They lost to a Beda team that is far superior talent-wise & Height-wise. This finals stint can be attributed to Coach Louie Alas. He has once again proven that he is the master of making do with limited resources.
• Looking at Joey De Venecia, now I know what Yoda's son would've been if he had a son. hehe
• Watching the Senate hearings make for some good entertainment. With, what, 24 (or is it 23) senators perpetually trying to put one over the other even on the most insgnificant of things? They should televise the hearings on Primetime.
• With Chabs off to Cebu for the PMAP conference yesterday, this is the longest time I have been parted with her. This early, I'm already missing her. The days and the nights simply aren't the same. Umuwi ka na baby. And don't forget the pasalubong ha? hehe
• To NEDA Director Neri, you got some balls of steel and an impeccable conscience. Imagine turning down a 200 million peso bribe & spilling the beans on COMELEC Chair Abalos who tried to bribe him. May more of your stock populate this country of ours.
