And Katipunan was flooded! <br /> <br /> I was stranded in the area until really late. <br /> <br /> Anyway, maybe we could take the chance and use our lesson on the Descriptive Essay to try to describe what happened to all of us today in Katipunan (heavy rains, etc.) <br /> <br /> Would anyone care to share a thesis statement we could all develop into a paragraph? ^_^ <br /> <br /> Anyhoo -- <br /> <br /> Hope all of you have a great weekend! See you all on Monday! <br /> <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7324044-109059236658371411?l=r28.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>K.

Please be there a little before that time. <br /> <br />I will be outside with your tickets. ^_^ <br /> <br />By the way, according to the record at Tanghalang Ateneo, only 18 people paid. Today, I only received payment from 12 more people. There are 4 people unaccounted for in our class. <br /> <br />Based on the initial list, 2 people are watching it on a different date and that's Chris and Ram. (But that's 2 more unaccounted for.) <br /> <br />Anyway, see you all tomorrow! ^_^<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7324044-108859646668439395?l=r28.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>K.
