despedida de solteira

let's do the drake equation then. shall we?

elise crossed her arms which showed her irritation then glared at maine

kala mo por que doctor ka hindi ako sasagot. excuse me. not me.

"let's hear it then"

sensing a brewing instance of conflict between opposing ideas and factions from the two XX chromosomes, alden interjected

maine... wa—

she glared at him and he instantly lost his voice.

kung hindi umubra ang scientific eme mo pwes kukunin ko to sa numero. medyo nanggigigil na ang dalaga

on the other side of the court...

alden felt like water being heated to be converted
to a white mist of small water droplets in the air. steamingly hot.

kingina tatanggalin ko na yung m.d. sa dulo ng pangalan ko pero yung pangalan nya, lalagyan ko ng faulkerson sa dulo

on 2010, peter backus enlisted a formula known as the drake equation — named after its creator, frank drake — he exploited a trick well known to scientists of breaking down the estimation by making lots of little educated guesses rather than one big one

the look on her eyes gauging and so far, from her own assessment, elise is still with her

at least her intellectual capacity is not disappointing. and had they met differently, elise is part of her wavelength that she can entertain as a friend

"you may go on" her tone is already dismissive

when alden and elise were still together, she never felt jealous because alden did not gave her a reason to. she's always his priority.

but this girl, she turned all the wheels to her favor. she realized, maine had not just gotten her place in alden's heart, but she left no space for others to enter
sa tagalog. sigurista.

maine continued to prove her point.

the result of this trick is an estimate, likely to be surprisingly close to the true answer, because the errors in each calculation tend to balance each other out along the way

elise can't help but exhibit her exasperation. this girl's intellect is really pissing her off. but true to herself, maine is the kind of lady she would want her brothers and friends to date.

but the thing is, alden is on the line. she needed to exceed maine's arguments

"so now we go on numbers? estimates? calculations? in case you did not hear, our discussion is based on applied reason. science is my and alden's language"

elise raise her brow.

true enough, elise is an obstetrician and alden is a psychiatrist. both on the field of medicine where they rely heavily on science.

come to think of it. bagay nga naman sila. they can easily understand each other using the same language.... agree?

who would not

but inside maine's mental notation:

haayy girl, mas pinadali mo ang laban. that route is your dead end. akala ko pa naman kailangan ko pang ipakilala si john gottman at i-present ang specific affect coding system.

with that being said, i assume you know that mathematics being the language of nature is a study of patterns revealing everything from the laws of the universe to the behavior of subatomic particles
