It pays to have cannabis-inhaling Bill C. as an alumnus. I was cycling along the towpath yesterday and was napahinto holy-shit it's byutiful ogling his college's new boathouse. Their boathouse was burned down ages ago, apparently by arsonists. This replacement cost £1.75M and whoever they commissioned to design it, did a great job.

To put things in perspective, that second one from the left is ours.....



.....and across the river is Bill Clinton's college's new boathouse.....glass, copper clad ceiling, etc.. potang-ena parang Prada samantalang yung sa amin ginawa ng architect ng SM...Wait, SM Malls had architects?

This has probably jacuzzis and shisha lounges and a special receiving room for prospective White House interns.



Meanwhile, our own alumnus is NOT doing well in the polls. He probably won't make Prime Minister. In fact, Gordo is doing quite well and despite his lack of charm, he looks hardworking.



Paano naman, mismong sariling tutor ni Brother Cameron dito, inokray sya in a full page article sa dyaryo. Meron ring malaking Facebook group from our college saying di namin sya type. O ha, hende porke we come pram da same college, suportahan kata agad.



Gordo is actually the first one among PM's who went to university in the past 100 years who didn't go this way. Tama na rin yun para hindi naman laging taga-Oxbarrio Uni (or Cambarrio) ang nagiging Prime Minister.

Incidentally, many PMs didn't go to University - Churchill, Major, Disraeli etc. Overrated ang university degrees. Tingnan nyo si GMA, daming degrees nyan pero sumemplang pa rin big time. (Lokohan nga yata Phd niya in Economics dahil she would have easily spotted na kahit 15% pa ang GDP growth kung 2% naman population rate, eh wala rin. Atsaka, would you expect a logical person to appoint idiots to cabinet?)

Aaaanyways, there is a reason I prefer getting bespoke shoes from Reed's Bootery (or those along General Luna road). Bespoke is more expensive but it's longer lasting and you pay a fair price to the workers unlike.....



...£5M contract for a model to 'design' clothes (na alam naman nating designed by other people dahil wala naman alam mga artista at modelo to make burda anything) but 20 pesos sweldo isang linggo for the poor workers...

Incidentally, I hope Angel Locsin learned something from her 'extensive' two week pashun course. Maybe she can design a scarf we use to tie up Roopa to make her STFU.

Finally, you know that the Horsemen of the Apocalypse are about to break the seals when....



...a book that's utter bullshit outsells a Booker prize nominated masterpiece. (Para na ring nanalo yung libro ni Celine Lopez ng Pulitzer.) In fact, lest I be accused of snobbery, irregardless of whatever else is out there, I can't believe that people are actually buying "The Secret". It's rubbish. But then again, whatever this so-called secret is, it worked for the author who is no doubt raking in the cash.....
