sabi ng kaibigan ko they keep reporting "Ateneo" is postponing classes, which appears to be a generalized everything term. sana hindi naman. i'm tired of sitting at home all day and playing neverwinter nights 2 and red alert 3: uprising. (i can't believe i'd ever say that)
i want to watch glee :(

I didn't watch the news kanina, but my sister mention the HS in ateneo postponing. GAH. Waiting for the start of classes seem to be taking forever since the OrSem was postponed :
Ohhh, RA3 Uprising???? I never thought anyone would play that! Woohoo, I got a friend!
What's your favorite faction????
On-topic:
They say the college department won't be affected by the postponement of the GS and HS. I still bet that within the first week, there's got to be at least one case. It's very plausible.
1. ORSEM would go first before the first day of school, because classes got postponed. 2. Classes would still be the same and ORSEM moved even further. 3. Nothing will happen

Hmm, well, unless they move all classes on September, like the classes in other countries. :) That would be.. TERRIBLE. :(( I''m so bored na sa bahay. Tumatakas na nga lang ako since my parents won't allow it. May virus daw sa paligid. XD They're paranoid na. :))
Freshies, chill out. School will start on Monday as planned, unless Ateneo explicitly says our classes our postponed.
I just want to point out the H1N1 virus is not an airborne disease. You are not going to get it unless you come in DIRECT contact with someone who has it. By direct contact, that would mean the infected person sneezed in your direction and you happen to ingest that person's spit.
Sorry, I'm a Bio major, and I just had to comment. :)
Actually, my mom is a doctor, and she told me that yes, H1n1 is not airborne. But, it's not really that you can only get them when they sneeze right at you. The virus globules or something are like really heavy so they don't get that much airtime when you sneeze. Thus, they settle on inanimate objects. And me mom told me that the virus can survive for at least 24 hours on that object. So, if you touch an object an h1n1 virus-positive person touches with hands he sneezed on, and you rub your nose or scratch yours eyes with the hand you touched the object with (lol long sentence), then you will get infected. Thus, the real preventive way is really staying healthy and washing your hands.
I think they won't suspend any classes anymore. I mean, we'd have a year long vacation if we suspend classes for ten days after a student gets it. D:
