defense.

congratulations girls! : )

after four groups last Tuesday, and three groups this afternoon, it was finally our turn to defend our thesis entitled Stability and Acceptability of Coconut Imitation Ice Cream. i won't go much into details about our study since i can't explain all of it without using scientific terms. i know that maybe you're wondering why it is called imitation ice cream.. we were also questioned by our panelist regarding that. it is because, instead of dairy milk, we used coconut milk and cream as a substitute. and because of that, we cannot legally use the term ice cream. hehe.

anyway.. my heart was beating so fast when our turn came. i was scared that i'll forget everything i've been memorizing since last night. but thank God, after our presentation, we were asked only a few questions, because we explained everything already on our paper. : ) and they said that we presented our conclusions and recommendations very clearly. : ) im so happy. all hard work and sleepless nights paid off. : ) and Jen also came to watch us to show support - even if she doesn't have class today. : )

thanks to Daniel for answering all our questions last night which helped us in discussing our results. you're amazing, i love you dear. : )

and to my groupmates - Julienne, Regina, Aubrey, and Kara - we made it! : ) thanks for all the good times! : )

hello! haven't written for a few days. after our exams yesterday, we finished editing and printing our papers and passed them to our panelists for our defense next week. then we went to Aubrey's place to start doing our presentation for the defense day. we found out that some part that we edited remained the same. no changes has been made. hay. and so.. we start doing it again. we finished around 4ish in the morning.. and slept for barely three hours. then my dad fetched me there (because i have so many things with me!) and came home. hoping to get some sleep, i cleaned the house, picked up the groceries, and did some chores because our maid left yesterday. only Ate Ning was left. she stayed with us for almost 30 years already. : )

my head is still spinning and i'll be sleeping in awhile.

last night, though tiring, was a fun experience. : ) we bought a lot of coffee to keep us awake through the night, but it didn't work - for me. we had barbecue for dinner, and they taught me how to use hands to eat hahaha! that's a first. then Papa came to see me and bought cheeseburgers and a chicken for us. dami food. : ) Aubrey was so funny because she stayed up later than us playing The Little Shop of Treasures on my laptop, not stopping until she beat the record time which i did last week.

six more days to go.. hope we can make it. : )

and by the way, Daniel's grandpa was out of the hospital already Tuesday night. thanks for the prayers. : ) goodnight! have a happy weekend. : )
