The final exams in Mapua is already a few weeks away. Students are now starting to get serious with studies (Oo, ngayon lang kami nagseseryoso) and are forced to leave petix mode.

As much as I don’t want to be too affected with this “re-finals” phenomenon, fate seems to be testing my patience by giving me lots things to keep me busy. But do not worry, even if I am very busy right now I would still try to provide articles for all your reading pleasure.

Now, what should I start on reviewing? Hmmm….

Here’s Pinoy Blogero’s weekend recap for the first Sunday of September! Enjoy!
