BIRG: My twinnie is graduating summa and was chosen to deliver the UP Centennial Graduation Speech!
 

According to DICTIONARY.COM (haha ;)), to BIRG means to

Bask in Reflected Glory 

–verb (used without object)
1.to lie in or be exposed to the pleasant reflected glory of someone close to you: to BIRG of my twinnie
2.to enjoy a pleasant situation as if it is somewhat related to you: Tata BIRG-ed of her twinnie's summa cum laude standing

All kidding aside, allow me now to Bask In The Reflected Glory of my twinnie, Gabriela M. Francisco! :) (*insert incoherent, fangirl shriek here*)

Not only is she graduating SUMMA CUM LAUDE (belonging to that super rare breed of UP iskos who manage such an academic feat in such a demanding and challenging environment---where all one's classmates are the best of the best), but she was also chosen, out of all the summas, to be the one to deliver the Graduation Speech on the UP University Commencement Exercises (which will be televised, since it's the UP Centennial Batch who'll be graduating!!) this April 27, 2008!!!? In front of the ENTIRE university....in front of the whole WORLD...on the UP Centennial, no less...

AAAAAaaaaaAAAAA!

:D

 

OMAYGULAY TWIN KO YAN hahahaha! :)

There. BIRG-ing over. :) hihi. *happy sigh*

 

***

Apologies for the incoherence. Am just delirious with joy and pride. :)
