Exactly 20 days from now, my so-called life as a bum shall turn from endangered to extinct.
I am now sitting at the end of Tin delos Reyes’ dining table, in her newly acquired [leased] condo, initially intending to finish my brother’s legal reseach paper on election fraud only to end up appropriating her internet card for my personal consumption.
Life after the bar is something alien to me. As most of my avid blogfans know, my daily routine consisted of coffee, highlighters, hundreds of pages of law and jurisprudence, coffee [again], and the occasional booze. My waking up every freakin’ day has a definite purpose — to study til my brain cells threaten an instant meltdown. Most of my friends consider me so "baduy" for ditching gimmicks only to bury my face in books and stain my hands with ink from my pen.
The Monday immediately after the last Sunday of the Bar was mind-boggling. Never in my life as a law student had I imagined that a day will come that the urgency of dragging myself out of bed would be the least of my concerns. It was so weird! Adjusting to this new-found life of non-nerdism took a little more effort from me. Gimmick was not something new to me, but it wasn’t a weekly or even a monthly thing for me. Usually, I go out when friends celebrate birthdays, or when the Law School holds parties and events. But after around two weeks, I was craving for more of the crowded-dancefloor-loud-music-eye-stinging-smoke-and-alcohol fusion of intoxication. in short, I am officially having fun.
I HONESTLY DON’T WANT TO WORK JUST YET! Boring Thursday night has just started to transform into an "Official Poker NIght". Me and Ruby are beginning to take interest in tagging along Gme’s clickthecity.com events. Cuisine at the Fort has slightly become part of my definition of a good time. Wow. I’m evolving into a normal person! Hahaha.
Pero okay lang. Christmas is in the air. Meaning, mahaba na naman ang pila sa gate namin! I need moolah to finance the long list of gifts for family and friends. Another thing is, my demand letters from inaanaks are piling up. Hahaha. I have a new inaanak. Seb. Chucky’s kid. I’m crazy about him! =)
So, there. I have to enjoy what’s left of my "break" just so I can say that I really did. I never got to go out of town with my friends. As if my parents would let me. Pero I’m still hoping that something will happen over the next 20 days of my so-called existence that I can unequivocally and definitely call memorable — in a positive way. 
PS: I’d like to thank my sponsor TIn for the internet card I’m using now. Hahaha. ;p
