One Week Absent.

Wait!

Before you get all worked up with the title...let me clarify. I have not been absent in school for a week. Hell no! I wouldn't dare miss a day in school with all the majors I'm taking. No way!

"Hell Month" truly lived up to its name as the week started giving me tons of school work -- over 500 pages of handouts and pages to read for three subjects, about a dozen write-ups to prepare for three homeworks, and at least a ton of brain power to make everything work.

I actually missed blogging. A lot! Honestly, it's like there was something missing because all I do when I log in the net was research for my would-be thesis.

Oh yes. I'm already starting thesis. It's official. Since Friday, our professor in Methods of Research (MethRes), Sir Laufred, has chosen a thesis topic for us based on the list we submitted to him. My topics for thesis were...

1. ICT Outsourcing Between First and Third World Countries
2. The Role of Mass Media in Politics, particularly on how they project policies on the society
3. Cultural Diversity and Globalization

And the winner is...

Hehehe...I got the first topic, which is perfect because this is the topic that I really want to do as my thesis. I have always been interseted in this "phenomenon," so to speak. I've heard and read that this outsourcing is really good for the economy and it really is. What I will be studying here is...even though it strengthens the economy, how come job outsourcing is considered to be a politically divisive issue? My gosh! I really can't wait to do this.

Today is the most awaited Pacquiao-Morales III bout and well...what can I say? Pacman won...third round. Morales went down and he sure went down hard! Dad was right after all. He's been telling me that the fight won't go past three rounds and I have to say...when it comes to boxing, Dad knows. Hehehe...

I have been routing for Pacman to win, mainly because between the two boxers, Pacman is more consistent in his fights. I like Morales as well but he's just too cocky. I mean, he got beat with his last fight with Pacman and he kept making excuses that he's just worn out from losing the weight which is really a lame excuse.

Go Pacman!

Well, I guess it's time to start school work again. I still have a lot of things to do.

Ooh. By the way, I'm having my retreat on Tuesday so...there!

Ciao!
