Exciting Month

June is always a month full of anxieties and activities for me.  First there's the opening of classes.  Yes, I'm still studying.  Masters of course.  Not undergrad, smart ass.  There's the excitement of meeting new classmates in my MBA classes.  There's the excitement of learning new things with new professors. 

Ok maybe that's a tad too nerdy.  Erase that last sentence.

Then there's the coming UAAP season to look forward to a month from now.  After 2 years of waiting, here we are 1 month away from what we all been waiting for — UAAP time.  It's the time of the year where students cut class to watch a game.  It's the time of the year when alumni suddenly get "sick" or have an "emergency meeting in the afternoon" every Thursday for the next 3 months.  Anxiety builds up starting this month till UAAP kick-off time.  There's the buzz of new and exciting rookies who will don the Green and White.  There's the usual talk of coach Franz forcing not to smile while the Ateneans struggle to cross the half-court line when the nightmare press is on.

Ok ok, 2002 were theirs.  So were 1987 and 1988.  But we got 1989, 1990, 1991, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2004.  Ok, erase 1991 and 2004 due to boardroom decisions (thanks Anton).

6 championships against 3.  In any language, you know who is better.

Time's up birdies. 

Eagle season is about to start.
