so i blew another soy mocha in starbucks this morning, dang that stuff is good. it's probably fattening. you know what they say. anyway, i just want to get into a little ramble here, and i don't know why im apologizing to the cyberspace air, but anyway. . .

so i was deciding what to teach my econ kids today. wow. i've practically finished the entire syllabus! i guess i will teach them that chapter on basic tools of finance after all! i decided to give them a little lecture on the costs of inflation and then move on to basic finance. never got to basic finance. costs of inflation ended up taking the whole time. and it wasn't because of their questions, it was because they couldn't keep up. oh well, i guess i bore myself to death when i teach slowly so i sped up a little. poor kids. they're not gonna find my lecture in the book. i have to figure out how to reward people who actually listen. i think i'm gonna put an essay portion in my final exam. i'm gonna give them a little curve ball, just to be fair to those who actually pay attention.

jojo l (leviste! not lastimosa) fresh from Syd was actually sitting in my class. we were gonna hang out in the afternoon. apologized for giving a class that i think bored a few them to death (despite my contrary opinion that actually things were getting really meaty. oh well. we'll see what they put in my evaluation). we had a semi-baboy lunch at Libis, this italian place and browsed around a different bookstore. we went to metro walk (yuck) to buy his boss some DVDs and ended up in the best part of the afternoon. i just hung out in his condo watching the new concert dvds, eating cookies and reading whatever books looked interesting in his room. jojo was organizing his social life during his one week and a few stay here. which reminds me that harvey is in town nga pala.

got home and started doing some work and because im afraid that watching TV is gonna derail me from further progress, i started typing somethings here. where has mahar been? he's been coming home late a lot.
