[X] studied along Taft (I guess studying inside a jeep caught in traffic along Taft counts.)

[X] watch a play that's required (What I watched wasn't a play kasi. It was a movie. About gay women. Memories. Lol.)

[X] watched any variety show (Syempre DPSM Week!)
[] promised to quit smoking

[X] joined an org (BCS, syempre.)
[X] allowed yourself to make mistakes
[X] took summer classes (Do I have a choice?! Do we ever take summer breaks? No. Once and for all, LET ME SAY THIS. Nag-susummer class kami hindi dahil bagsakin kami. Di dahil adik kami at gusto maka-advance. Di dahil malakas ang trip namin. It's just that, we don't have a choice. We have four years to finish something that could normally take five. Okay?)

[X] used your 6 allowable absences wisely (I tried not to exceed. Lalo na sa GE where they have attendance checks. Sa SS2, exams lang ako nakita ng prof. Sa Bio10, halos ganun din. And many other courses. But 20 absences is the norm sa amin. Joke. Half-meant.)
