3 Things that made me happy today
1. I finally defeated the 6-year old kid, Josh, at chess. Take that! Last night I played and won against an anonymous Russian guy. I also beat a FIDE 1600+ Spanish guy. And some other guy whose flag I didn't recognize. I can't remember their names. But they sure as hell remember mine. Mwahahaha!
2. My dad told me this sometime ago but today I confirmed it. There was, some 100 years ago, a Republic of the Visayas and later a Republic of Negros! When the Americans destroyed Aguinaldo and his puny Tagalog army around the start of the 20th century the strong people of the Visayas held firm and formed their own country! Later, when the strong people of Iloilo surrendered to the Americans the stronger people of Negros stood fast and fought to the very last man. Lo! There do I see them in the halls of Valhalla. I only wait for an opportunity to prove myself in battle and join them. I wonder if fighting Soviets over a virtual chessboard counts...
3. What makes me REALLY happy is: Christmas break is only three days away! And I have plans.
