#HumbleBlog #5 — Turning Trenta
Whaddup Tobs, As seven-plus years of friendship will attest, you shouldn’t be surprised that I’m replying only after two weeks. What can I say, life’s been kicking my ass around as of late (as it always does every September), and most of it is because of the UAAP. The same exact thing that you, me,…
