10 Things I Hate About You + Driving

Since I was absent yesterday (for no special reason), I decided to watch 10 Things I Hate About You (starring Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger) via Youtube. I'm now head over heels for the movie. It's so funny and romantic! I especially love it when Patrick (Heath) sang Can't Take My Eyes Off You in the soccer field - his voice was so sexy.

Now, I can't allow myself to have a crush on Heath, since he's a dead guy and it would make no sense salivating over him. LOL. But I terribly miss him. He was a great actor; very handsome, too. It actually pained me a while ago when I went through tributes for him in DeviantArt. It shocked me how it hurt, the fact that he's gone. Up til now, I still can't accept it.

Anyway, before I start crying: my family let me drive to Filinvest QC last Sunday. Guess what? By the time we were there, their knuckles were white, they were stiff as a board, and their hearts were up at their throats. No kidding. ROFL.

Oh, here's one of those lines in the movie that made me laugh so hard:

                              CAMERON
                  (to Patrick)
                  We know what you’re trying to do,
                  with Kat Stratford.

                            PATRICK
                  Is that right?  And what do you plan
                  to do about it?

                            CAMERON
                  Help you out.

                            PATRICK
                  Why’s that?
      
                               MICHAEL
                  The situation is, my man Cameron here
                  has a major jones for Bianca Stratford.
      
                               PATRICK
                  What is it with this chick?  She have
                  beer flavored nipples?

Good news, bad news

My Aunt and cousin just arrived from England and they gave me awesome presents. LOL :D

Anyway, I'm starting to get tired from school. There are moments when I think about skipping all of my classes (and sometimes that does happen), and I care little about the consequences. I'm not so sure as to what the reason is, though; maybe I'm just drained, tired of the heavy amount of school work. Or maybe the fact that I'm freshman when I'm supposed to be a sophomore gets my head stuck to possibilities and what-ifs. Or maybe I'm just not inspired enough (I NEED AN ATENEAN BOYFRIEND D:). Or maybe I just think too negatively before even coming to classes?

I need to change my attitude! I just wish it's as easy being done as it is being said. I need to study a bit after getting home from school - I swear, I don't know how to study. I'm not sure if there's a routine or something. I've never studied academics my whole life, I swear. I got by in high school through stock knowledge, and through my freshman year in Miriam by sucking up to my professors (which worked brilliantly, as I was only a few decimals short of being a dean's lister). Ateneo is a big challenge to students like me.

Before I make you sad through my ramblings, I'll put in some good news: my close friend, Ashleiy, just celebrated her 20th birthday last November 28. The good news there is that she's freaking old, and I'm still freaking young at 17! LOL! XD We celebrated her birthday last Sunday - lots of visitors, and one of them was... an old flame (or the one I almost got - but that's just my imagination). And he's so... handsome O_O Argh! Not the Zohan type (Zohan's cute), he's more macho and... handsome and... handsome? T_T AND I'M SO EAGER TO SHARE WITH YOU GUYS HIS PICTURE! LOL! (To Ashleiy: If you're reading this, just keep it a secret XD) But of course, I don't want to post it here. Just add me up at YM: kaslacson :D

Oh, the reason I want to share his picture is so I could have everyone's opinion on whether he's really hot. Coz I think he is D: Let's chat so that I could tell you our history! XD

Anyway, I better shut my mouth now XD

growing old

It's less than three months before my birthday, and I can tell you - I'm excited. NOT.

I'm so scared of growing old; turning 18 makes me scared. Well, I'm excited about the party and all, but the fact that I'll be turning 19, then 20, after that really creeps me out. No kidding. If I could, I'd stay 17 forever.

I know that I'd be freed from a lot of restrictions once I turn 18, but the hidden message there is that I'm already old enough to be left alone. Homaygulay. I still want to feel secure - I still want to feel, er, protected :|

I don't want to turn 18, or 19, or *gasp* 20! I can't commit any crime knowing that I can be put to jail (LOL, yup, I seriously think about that XD).

Anyway, I need to improve on my writing skills. I'm beginning to suck big time :(

Owned

Since there's nothing worthy to be blogged about, let me just share with you this photo I Stumbleupon-ed.

Destined!

I think I found Kiko's Friendster account. And by that, I mean the real Kiko; the Kiko Rustia of Survivor Philippines.

When I'm deeply passionate about something, I do all I can to obtain information and to get closer to this passion of mine. Apparently, Kiko is one of my passions. HAHAHA so yes, after some painstaking research and interviews with different people, I think - I hope - I finally found the real Kiko! Mwahaha! *More evil laughter*

Kiko, alam kong itinadhana tayo maging... magkaibigan. (Depends on how you pronounce it LOL ;)) I hope to see you in the shores of Boracay. XD

Isn't he hot :))

Anyway, sem break is over. Why am I feeling so sad about this?

Cosplay is for the rich

Since hearing of it, I have always wanted to cosplay.The thought of dressing up as one of my favorite anime/gaming characters excites me for many reasons. And although it has long been my dream to do this, I never came close to achieving it. Heck, cosplay is costly (as far as I know) - and to buy all sorts of materials, from the wig to the clothes to the accessories to the shoes, just to showcase it all for a few hours - it's not practical.

Then I saw this site, and believe me, I'm amazed. More like swept away, actually.

But there's this one character which I dream of cosplaying: Lulu of Final Fantasy X



BUT HOW D: And where to get items... actually, have I got any money for this? Haha LMAO. I'm getting all dejected again. But I really want to cosplay Lulu; I want to look exactly like her. But for now, I'll save my money for more important things. I'll start saving up for cosplaying by the time I'm in showbiz. :))

Kikoman

As a man respects
His beloved's privacy
You, dear, are untouched

-Haiku for my blog

Not exactly a fruitful sem break, but that's just how I like it.

Good news: I finally got my car (from the clutches of my relatives! *Evil laughter*)! It's a red Toyota Corolla. Dad was actually the first to own it, back in 1997. He then gave it to my aunt, who, after getting the yellow Volkwagen New Beetle I've always wanted to have, hardly used it. I'm suddenly getting this feel of the phrase "passed down from generation to generation"... but no, it's not an ancient car. It's still in top condition, and dad wants to have it improved i.e. have it fixed for power steering, power whatnot... he even wants to give it a paint job! I told him, "Dad, do that after I crash the car." O_O *knocks on wood*

I've given the Corolla a gender and a name. My car shall be a guy, and I shall name it Kiko. Yes, Kiko. In honor of my crush du jour - a Survivor Philippines castaway - Kiko Rustia! XD





Okay. Sorry ha. Pero ang hot niya eh :))


I just finished looking for him at Friendster, and as expected, there are lots of posers stealing his identity. Although there's this account which intrigued me, and at the same time, made me wildly jealous. Gah! Pictures don't lie! The picture doesn't look fake! I hope that girl's just one of those fans who got a little too friendly with him. Hahaha.

That's that. If you're bored and got nothing to do, I suggest you play this game. It's got me hooked for a while. :)

Oh, for the people who are asking about Zohan: My mum and I were supposed to watch him perform at Metrowalk last Friday; he was going to sing at Elbow Room. Unfortunately, the plan didn't push through: mum didn't want to go home late (since his performance was at 10:30 PM). Ayun.

And the movie? He didn't open the topic anymore. LMAO.

The complications of being a girl

I'm inspired enough to write today! :)) This sem break has got me occupied with... stuff (read: PS2).

Let me tell you something: I don't like Zohan anymore. After all, crushes disappear quickly (in my case, at least). But he's... he's making the moves T_T ARGH! WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN MYSELF INTO?! Haha, kidding :)) Seriously, though, he's inviting me to watch a movie. The invitation goes something like this:

(By the way, sorry if I'm so inconsistent. At one post I tell you guys that I like him and that I invite him to eat with me and stuff, then suddenly this. To tell you honestly, even I'm confused with myself. If I'm not interested in someone, there's very minimal possibility that I give that someone a chance to even make a move.)

(Oh, yeah, please forgive me for my train of thoughts XD)

Three days ago
Zohan [Z]: Di ba sabi mo once ka palang nakakapuntang Trinoma?
Me [M]: (Thinks, 'Uh-oh') Yeah, with my uncle. Ang damot nga niya eh, nag-share pa kami sa pagkain T_T
Z: Punta tayo dun some time, watch a movie or something
M: ('Ack! o_O') Okay, sige :)
*Etc. etc.*

Two days ago
Z: Free ka ba sa Thursday?
M: ('Eto na') Hindi eh, sorry. I have to tutor my brothers; periodicals na kasi nila.
Z: Awww. I was hoping na tsaka tayo manonood ng movie.
M: Ahhh, sorry. Hindi kasi talaga pwede eh. Next time nalang :)
*Etc. etc.*

Today
Z: So busy ka hanggang tomorrow, right? Sa Saturday free ka?
M: ('Nako! What excuse to give?!') Um, hindi pa sure. May kukunin akong ticket eh. May napalanunan kasi akong contest :))
Z: Talaga? Ticket saan?
M: Folded and Hung Fashion Show (Which is true - I really did win tickets)
Z: Saan mo kukunin?
M: Hindi ko pa alam, hindi pa nagbibigay ng details.
Z: So kung sakali free ka or magbago isip mo, text me nalang :))

Oh man. Let's just see what happens.

Zohan, sorry for being inconsistent. -_- Nagkaganyan-ganyan ka tuloy.

Babawi ako

BABAWI AKO NEXT SEM.

Babawi ako.
Babawi ako.

I'm actually expecting low grades this sem. Low=3 D's (Zoology, Math, feeling-major-subject Filipino). I know - it's terrible. But getting those grades are going to make me happy - I don't want to get an F, ever. F is never an option for me.

I actually chatted (YM) with Mum a while ago (she was in her office). I told her, "Ma, D lang talaga makukuha ko ngayon." She replied, "Ok lang, ang goal lang natin this sem makapasa ka. Alam namin ni dad nahihirapan ka pa." THAAAAANKKKK YOUUUUUU. Hahahaha. I'm really, honestly going to make up next sem. I'll always sit at the front and always listen to the prof. Augh. The thought alone is awful. Hahaha, kidding.

Moving on, Aryan commented, "I thought you're over Zohan?" Well... how do I explain this? Let's just put it this way:

Girl likes Boy. Girl does what she can in order to get close to Boy. After finally befriending him, she loses interest and thinks of him only as a friend. But then, Boy starts to give Girl more attention. He becomes more talkative, more friendly, a tad more touchy (or maybe that's just Girl's imagination). Girl thinks it's amusing, LOL. So she just goes with the flow. =)

Which is to say that I don't exactly have a crush on Zohan anymore. But we're getting to be close buddies.

Oh yeah! Remember what I said, about the two of us eating out? We did eat out yesterday - we had breakfast at Pancake House. We talked about normal stuff (acads, friends)... but there is one thing he said which makes me go, "Hmmm " Wanna know what it is?

This:
"Sa susunod sa Old Spaghetti House naman tayo."

Oha! *Hair grows long* But I'm a bit irritated with myself, actually. I shouldn't be sharing everything. XD

Eligible bachelors

I have some really bad news about my academics. But...

NEVERMIND XD

I'll solve this - literally - on my own.

Aaaanywaaaaayyy.

Today's the last day of our regular class sessions. And it makes me SO FRIGGING HAPPY! Lol. Of course I'm a bit sad, but, what the hell. This HELL of a semester is finally over.

Damn, I still have my finals D: Zoology and Math... why do you have to ruin everything ;_; (I have to get REALLY HIGH in my finals in order to pass those two subjects D:)

Anyway... guess what? Zohan and I are eating out after our Zoology finals! Yessszz, just the two of us :D But here's the catch: I was the one who invited him. HAHAHA. I know, it's very... malandi, right? But what the hell - I felt confident inviting him because of everything that's going on between us right now. Also, there's but a slim chance that we'll be class mates again, since he's not my block mate D: I know - sad, right? So I must bond with him - but I hope it wouldn't be the last time ;o;

Wait, I'm not finished! XD Remember the guy (let's call him "Miggy") who visited my house a week ago (click here)? Well, mum and I had a conversation regarding that a while ago...

Mum [M] and Kring [K]
M: Nagtanong nanaman ang daddy mo tungkol sa pagbisita sayo nung Miggy na yun.
K: O, ano daw?
M: Tinanong niya, 'Sino ba yun?', 'Taga-saan?', 'Saan nag-aaral?' Haynako! Lumabas nga ang pagka-matapobre niya eh.
K: Oh? (*laughs*) Pano?
M: Eh kasi tinanong nga niya kung saan nag-aaral, so sinabi ko sa (*insert school here*). Sabi niya, 'Eh mahirap pala yan, eh!'
K: (*Laughs some more*) Eh kasi ma, totoo naman...
M: HAYNAKO! That doesn't matter! As long as mabait at masipag mag-aral, okay na sa akin. Nung bata nga ako eh mahirap ako (blahblahblah)...
K: Okay, okay XD
M: At eto! Sabi niya, 'Sa susunod na bumisita yon, pakawalan niyo yung mga aso' HUH?? Tawa ako ng tawa nung sinabi niya yon! Pero seryoso yung itsura niya!
K: FTW! (*rolls off floor laughing*)
M: Kaya anak, now you know... hindi talaga open ang daddy mo na magka-BF ka.
K: I knooooow T_____T (*Mopes for a while, but thinks about what he said about letting the dogs out and laughs again*)
M: Baka pag nagkaroon ka ng manliligaw, bumili pa sya ng mas matapang na aso.

Okay. I'm really scared as to what will happen if someone courts me, 'coz I want to present eligible bachelors (ftw) to my dad. I wonder how he would react -_-

Chris Tiu, I know that if you'd be my suitor, dad would need no convincing. So... please. For my sake, COURT ME. NYAHAHAHA.

The Tiu-Tiu Train & the love investigation pt. iii

HANDSOME.

TALENTED.

SMART.

What's not to like about Chris Tiu?
He's the perfect guy to bring home to your parents.

Argh! I'm beginning to be part of the Tiu-Tiu train o_O Which sucks big time, as Chris Tiu is, so far, unattainable. I see him around school, and dammit! He's so... hot. The epitome of hotness. Hahaha.

I've told you guys about how four of my block mates are Team B players of the Ateneo, right? I'm particularly close with one of them, Jek. He said he'll try to introduce me to Papa Chris. They are friends, after all. Yipee!!!

Anyway, let me give you a Zohan update. My classes ended at 8:30 AM yesterday, can you believe it -_- So I was about to go home when I got a text message from him. It said: "Uwi ka na diba? (You're going home, right?)" I was about to reply when I saw him walking. So I just called him. When he saw me, he approached me, and guess what? He kissed me! NYAHAHAHA! Joke! XD Actually, he approached me, chatted with me, and he hung out with me for about two hours, since he had nothing to do.

Makes me wonder why he hung out with me, of all people. Yiieeee. (Linagyan ng kulay *u*)

Oh yeah! He knew that I'd be attending the Ateneo Bonfire. He didn't plan on going to the event, so when the Bonfire started, he texted me, "Kumusta yung bonefire? (How's the bonefire?)"

I laughed at the wrong spelling. Nyahaha. Sorry, my bad XD

I wanted to reply, "Masaya naman yung BONEfire =)) (The BONEfire's great)" but we aren't close. ROFL.

Anyway... the plot thickens XD

Dropping forks

I literally dropped my fork two times last week. And I, er...acquired what it corresponds to in the Filipino adage.

I got a visit from a guy. He came over two times. (Click here. You must be in my contacts for you to view it :O)

His first visit was two nights ago. He arrived at about... 9:30 PM (and to think it was storming that night). But before you think of anything - two of my friends were at the house, too. All of us sang and danced the night away with the trusty Magic Sing (LMAO, he sings GREAT!). He, along with my friends, left at about 11:30 PM.

It was a shock that he came over, really. I never expected him to come because of the tropical storm. I was also nervous as it was our first time to really get to know each other.

The second visit was yesterday. He had a long break time so he came over the house to chill. Guess what? He didn't bother going to school anymore, tinamad na. -_- So he stayed from 1 to... 7:30 PM? But before you think of anything - Mum was there XD Again, we sang (thank God for the Magic Sing!), played with the dogs, talked and talked, and he also played with my little brother, Bryan.

Sooo... I just think of him as a friend XD LMAO. The way I write it, it's as if I'm writing for a gossip column or something. o_O

Why do I write so friggingly fugly today?! I'm so tired and lazy -____-

Anyway, about Zohan. If you want to see his Multiply account, check my Multiply guest book - he commented there with a simple emoticon. NYAHAHAHA.

You Are Gay

Oh my goodness. Our gay Lit prof is being mean! And when I say mean, it's serious-mean.

It started last Monday. The group reporting disappointed him, and from then on he started being... imbyerna, gay style XD It's pretty irritating actually. But more than that, it's depressing. *Sigh* He's my favorite prof. Actually, not only mine, but my block's. Why did this have to happen... -_-

There's something wrong with him, though. He's taking things a bit too personally: a while ago, when I greeted him outside class, he acted as if I were one with the air XP He didn't even look me in the eye! WTH. That's wrong, man. It's unprofessional, right? I mean, even if you don't like someone, you should atleast greet him/her back when he/she greets you. I know he was upset - insulted, even - but please. Not everyone in the class did something wrong.

Moving on...

Zohan! You know what? I think I'm falling out of love for him :P haha! I know, it's kind of sad. Last Monday I spent my free time with him (and it's because I invited him - not the other way around XP), and instead of feeling giddy I felt... disgusted? LOL! No, not disgusted, more like... I wanted to be alone. I wanted to get away from him. And what's weird about that is that he didn't do anything offensive - he was actually very kind. So WHY?? Maybe it's because I saw his face up close and saw that he had many pimples?? HAHAHAHA. Wellll... I can't say that that's not part of the reason but, WTH. XD Oh my gosh. Now you see that I really do have high standards. :( FAIL.

Oh, yeah! I know you guys want to see him. Well... want me to give you his Multiply ID? I can post it here, but if someone who knows him sees this, it's going to be embarassing. :)) So if you do want to see his pic, just add me up on YM. It's kaslacson. :)

That's all there is. Ciao :))

The mushy and gooey love investigation pt. ii

Warning. School girl post coming through. Read with barf bag.

I'M SO HAPPY! And yet I'm confused as to what the real deal between Zohan and I really is T_T Argh... who knew that men would be even more confusing then women?

Anyway, let me tell you all about it.

Zoology class always starts at 12:30, but yesterday I came to the classroom an hour early as I had to practice a report with my group mates. I was expecting that I'd be alone in the classroom for a long period of time, but surprisingly, Zohan and I entered the room at the same time (he went through one door; I got in through the other)! Gasp! Is this fate or what (ookayy...XD)?!

Since both of us were alone, the girl-ish, malandi voice inside my head said, "You must make a move!" So I did. I sat beside him, since, you know... it'd be awkard if we sat apart, in silence, for an hour (oh, really.). And we talked.

Me: ...So. What org are you joining?
Zohan: Glee Club.
M: Woooow, so you must be really good at singing! SAMPOL!
Z: *Laugh* No, not really.
M: Sige lang. Sample!
Z: *Laugh* But I have colds!
M: No that's okay! Sing please T_T
Z: ...What d'you want me to sing?
M: Um. *looks for songs in the MP3 player I'm holding* Closer (Ne-Yo)?
Z: Haha, no! I don't want to sing that. Black ang kumanta eh.
M: *Thinks... 'OMG, a racist T_T'*
Z: The singing voice of black people are so good. Mataas without effort.
M: *Thinks... 'Ah, hindi naman pala racist!' XD* ...I can't think of any song.
Z: Yung ano nalang... 'How did you know, I needed someone like you in my life'
M: *Dahil crush ko siya, todo react ako* SIGE!

He sang the first stanza. His voice is good! And to think he has colds.

So we talked some more; there were already few people in the class room.

Then he stood up, got his wallet from his bag (which was on another chair), headed to the door, and said, "Sama ka sa caf? Libre kita."

I didn't give myself time to think. I immediately agreed. When you think about it, parang makapal ang dating ng mukha ko. Hindi ko man lang tinurn-down ang offer niyang manlibre. Hindi na nga kasi ako nag-isip. :P

We had drinks; I thanked him profusely.

So we talked until we got back to the class room. My group mates were there; we had to discuss the report.

---

So it was dismissal and I saw my kabarkada, Jenny. She was with her friend and her friend's boyfriend. We hung out for a while; and I told them what had happened with Zohan a few hours before. Since I was also talking this over with a guy, I was hoping he'd tell me the meaning behind what Zohan did.

He said, "Ay, hindi. Nakikipag-kaibigan lang yun."

HAYNAKO! Kainis T_T

Is that really it? I'm gonna cry T_T (OA!)

---

Anyway, Zohan and I texted a while ago despite the fact that I'm Globe and he's Sun. But I'm kinda tired already, so I'll just save that story for next time :D

Sorry, mushy. Even I'm irritated with myself. :|

Waiter, oh waiter

Very quick, 3-minute post, as I wanna go to sleep early D: (It's actually 9:45! Gasp! *Big deal*)

I went to Robinsons Metroeast a while ago to meet up with my kabarkada, Jenny. You know why she *forced* me to go there? To eat at the friggin' Greenwich fast food restaurant. She has a crush on one of the waiters there and actually wore a very sexy kimono top + short shorts in order to impress him. What the effing hell XD Magkaka-crush ka na nga lang sa waiter pa. LOLz.

I asked Jenny, "So, if you get to give him your number... what happens, then? (Hidden message: Do you actually want to have a relationship with a waiter? -_-)"

She replied, "Not expecting anything, really. A one night stand's okay."

HUWAAAAAAT.

*She was just kidding, of course. If she was serious about that then I swear, the person I was talking to wasn't Jenny. It may have been someone who stole her skin and used it as a costume... or something -_-
*We didn't find the waiter. Day off, maybe? Oh well, we'll come back on Friday XD

Pajero

It was an ordinary day, when Mum's story made me roll over laughing.

Our maid, Ate Vangie, went to the wet market to buy beef for Mum's Pochero. Mum wasn't aware that Ate Vangie already bought the beef, so they had a conversation...

Mum: Bumili ka na daw ng beef?
Ate Vangie: Opo, para po sa Pajero.
Mum: *confused look* ...ha?!
Ate Vangie: *smiles a shy smile* ...Pajero?
Mum: POCHERO!
Ate Vangie: ...kaya pala tumatawa yung tindera sa palengke...

Just thinking about how their conversation went makes me laugh! XD

Anyway, guess what? After graduation (which is 3 years from now), my Nigguh Ashleiy and I will be joining The Amazing Race Asia! Root for us! XD

The mushy and gooey love investigation

Ooookay. How many times have I told myself to start blogging again? Multiply's been my online outlet these days, but I realize that my writing skillz are getting bad because I seldom write at Multiply. So, for the nth freaking time, I'm back! ^.^

First things first. School. I'm stressed! It's as if I'm only starting to adjust to college life. Back at Miriam, I could go the whole semester without studying - and have high grades at that. But in Ateneo - it's different. If you cram, you fail. And that's my very problem. I've got really low grades in Math and Zoology. And the fact that I have to score real high in those subjects in order to get atleast a C (yes, it's that bad!) - it's stressing me out. How do I manage to catch up?

Second, block mates. Ano, sugurin na natin? Haha, kidding XD Things have died down. But the bad vibes are still there. Still, I'm not going to force myself to be liked by this person. If she doesn't like me, it's fine. Actually, now, I don't mind at all. She's just one person who doesn't like me - and there are hundreds of people who like me for the way I am :) Right? Right!

NOW LET'S MOVE ON TO A BETTER TOPIC. I'm crushing on someone! Er, well - If you read this post then you may think that I'm referring to the same guy. Actually I'm not. This one's different. We shall call him Zohan, LOL. He's my classmate in Zoology.

Anyway, Zohan - let's just say that compared to the first guy I was crushing on (let's call him Jai), he's more... attainable XD Jai's a team B player for the Ateneo (and my block mate. Haha. If they read this :O), while Zohan's a normal guy. He isn't really good-looking (which doesn't mean to say he's ugly), so I wasn't attracted to him the first time I saw him. It just developed slowly. I like him 'coz he has a deep, sexy voice (ooh la la), he looks intelligent, and he's kinda cute - for me, at least (chinito, fair skin - kinda pimply, though. *snorts*). Anyway, my attraction for Zohan grew a bit more when he:

A. Helped me out

It was our long test in Zoology, and we needed a Blue Book in order to take the test. And me, ever the henyo, had no Blue Book. I was a bit panicky - I didn't know where to buy one, plus the test was in 5 minutes. But then, Zohan entered the room, holding a cup of coffee and a Blue Book. So I went to him to ask where he got one.

"Uy, san ka nakabili niyan?"

He replied,"Sa caf - halika, samahan na kita."

You guys know how I felt by then ♥ ARTE punyeta.

So we walked. He told me he was sleepy. After a while, I realized that I had forgotten his name (please, I'm terrible with names!), so I asked him:

"Uy... ano nga ba pangalan mo? Sorry ha >.<" He said, "Ang sama mo!" and told me. To challenge him, I asked, "Eh ikaw, alam mo ba pangalan ko?"

I didn't expect that he'd know. "Oo naman," he said, "Kring."

ALARM BELLS STARTED RINGING IN MY HEAD. HAHAHA.

So we got back to the classroom after I bought a Blue Book. By then, my crushing on him, which I didn't really take time to notice, became something I thought of more frequently.

B. He volunteered!

Three weeks ago, we had an activity which was by pairs. And my row-mates were absent, so I was completely alone in my row (3rd row) -_- When our prof asked who among us didn't have a partner, I raised my hand and said, "Ako, miss!" Zohan then looked at me, and all the way from the 1st row, said, "Tayo nalang."

I said, "Okay." but my heart was about to explode from happiness by then. Haha. ARTE punyeta. After pairing, we found out that the activity involved physical contact. Nyahaha.

Okay, so after that, ZERO. We hardly talked, and hardly noticed each other (?). And IDK whether he did the two things mentioned above because he had something for me or because of the circumstances, which are...

In A, he was sleepy and even had coffee with him. Did he accompany me so that he could energize and make himself less sleepy by walking?

In B, well. I guess he had no partner either. -_-

Other than that, he's a Sun Cellular user (why am I making a big deal out of THAT?), and you know Sun users - mga mag-syotang kuripot. XD Argh! What the hell. Can our feelings be mutual? Or am I just fooling myself into thinking that? (Melodramatic music, please) Oh please give me a sign.

Argh! Magkagusto ka sakin please. Hahaha.

---

So anyway, here's another thing. I like this guy, he's the maternal cousin of my paternal cousin (meaning we aren't related by blood), and the weird thing is that I like him even though I haven't seen him for a year and a half. And my tita - his ninang - wants us to be together. Gusto niya kami i-set up. So ako naman si Kilig. Agree ako! LOL. I hope it really does happen. I like him, eh :) So you see...

Dalawa ang puso ko. HAHAHAHA.
Torn between two lovers. Dammit. Nagfi-feeling. :))

SUPER NAIINIS AKO SA ISA KONG BLOCK MATE. SWEAR.

HAYNAKOOOO!!! NAKAKAINIS! BWISIT KA!

Hahaha, sorry don't mind me. :P

Oh help

I need a breath of fresh air, and yet somehow, I want my old life back.

Hence I'm going to regularly update this blog again - I hope ;)

Anyway...

I am so not happy with how things are going so far. I'm kind of depressed. Maybe it's because my academics are spiraling downward? Or because my block isn't really the best block there is? Or maybe it's a mixture of both? Please don't let that be the case. :O

Explanation:

1. My academics are not so good. So far I've failed 3 long tests - Math, Zoology Lab, and Zoology lecture. How much worse can it get? Other than that, I'm completely disorganized...

I'm ranting right now, hahaha. Somehow I just want to laugh all of this off. I feel like a BIG laugh will make all my sadness disappear, and I remember how I write in this blog. Kind of humorous in a way, for me that is. Argh... I need to laugh! I need a laugh from non-Ateneo people! O_O Ateneo's... gah!

2. My block mates. You know how, in the first few days of school, almost every one of us says "Holy hell my block mates are the best in the world!!!" And little by little, day by day, you realize how mistaken you are? Well that's the stage I'm in right now. Don't get me wrong, though; I'm not in a fight with anyone in my block. It's just that the class somehow feels tense. There are a couple of B.V.s (Bad Vibes) between people here and there, and me, I'm trying my best to have good relations with everyone (Good thing no block mate of mine knows about this blog :3 I can type all I want). Add to that the "groupings" between block mates - and I'm a loner. BUT. That doesn't mean I'm uncool yo 8) Hahaha. I only mean that I don't stick with a particular group - I change groups depending on who I feel like talking to.

I really feel sad right now :( I need my friends. My barkada, Ashleiy, Cha - holy, I haven't seen all of them for about 2 months now. I NEED THEM! :|

1, 2

I haven't been updating this blog, ew for me. I'm so engrossed with my Multiply that I've ignored my blog.

Anyway...

UPDATES!

I'm crushing on someone - hard (of course, that's really the first thing a teenager needs to update people on. Haha!). I think it's okay to give a description of him here, since most of my Ateneo friends don't really know about the existence of my blogger account... but what the heck! Better safe than sorry, right (nabitin ka? :>)? Sigh! But there is a problem. No, he doesn't have a girlfriend. It's just that... I can't find a common ground for him and me to talk about, sooo... it's hard to get close to him. WTH.

Studies. So far I'm failing my Zoology, but I'm trying to get back in track. My profs in Zoo (there are two of 'em) are so boring; one of them teaches so quickly that I don't have time to absorb the discussion.

I have two gay professors - one in Math, the other in Literature. I'm quite fond of the latter; he's really girly. My male block mates always react to whatever he's saying. And since it's Literature he's teaching, he makes us, you know, read stuff which is rated R. And he explains the male protagonists so...

"What the girl doesn't know is that oily men are usually the greatest in bed" (Um, okay - based on experience?)

GTG. I'm so sleepy. I'm so stressed out; I need to adjust my body clock to atleast 10 PM.

Third's a charm

Our computer crashed AGAIN. But it's because of the hard drive this time.

I'm having a blast in Ateneo! Yay I'm so happy~ my block mates are the best.

Wait, more updates when my head is cleared of all distractions.

Goodbye, Cindy

Our dog, Cindy, died trying to give birth yesterday (father of puppies=unknown stray dog). She lived for 11 human years.

I got the news while I was with my Literature group, but it was only when I came home at 8 PM when I found out about the details. Ate Vangie (our maid) told me that Cindy was crying as she died ("there were tears in her eyes"), and that she was buried beside Sparky. I was heartbroken when she told me that after Cindy died, Brosia (our bulldog) came looking for her and stayed at the spot in the garden where Cindy was last seen alive.

Unlike with Sparky's death, I cried - and am still crying - for Cindy's (If you see me, you'll assume that I just broke up with someone). She has been my pet since I was I was in first grade. She's the smartest and most docile dog I know. I've seen her grown up, and she has seen me grow from a kid to a lady.

I'll miss Cindy. I'll miss the way she looks at me, the way she keeps quiet, the way she wags her tail, the way she eats the food I throw at her, the way she closes her eyes whenever I pat her in the head, the way she rolls over to scratch her back. I'll miss the way she stops near the opened front door when we look at her and say, "no" and I'll miss the way she gets all excited when we bring the leash out to take her for a walk. I'll miss everything about her.

When dad got home, he didn't notice how swollen my eyes were; it was mum who told him. Then he looked at me and said, "Ano bayan, nung namatay si Tiya Peting hindi ka umiyak (When your Aunt Peting died you didn't even cry)!" my mum and I laughed to that. Mum added, "Hindi ka naman bibigyan ng mana ni Cindy di gaya ni Tiya Peting (Unlike Aunt Peting, Cindy won't leave you any possessions)"

So we talked. Then dad said something - something I expected, "I'm going to buy a dog" he said, "An Akita"

"What is that, a guard dog?" mum replied, "It may attack your children, you know" and she added, "What does it look like, anyway? An ordinary dog?"

"It looks like a wolf."

"Nyay!"

So, we'll just have to wait for the Akita. Hopefully my brothers and I can shower it with love without it biting us =)

Fin.

I don't live in the mountains

It kills me that I don't have anything to write about. Oh... wait! I do have something to write about. XD

I'M NOT SEPARATED FROM CIVILIZATION ANYMORE!

I BOUGHT THE TWILIGHT BOOK! XD

And I'm still at chapter two. Despite that, I already love Edward Cullen. He's... not mine, okay (I was supposed to type "HE'S MINE!" like I always do with my other crushes, but unfortunately I can see that that's an impossibility *insert sad face*).

Why do vampires look good? No... wait. Why am I not a vampire? Hahaha XD

Moving on, my dismissal tomorrow's at 9:30 AM, but I'm going to stay in Katipunan until 4:30 PM as I'm going to attend a friend's birthday party. What am I going to do with my time? D: I'm planning on meeting up with my friends from Miriam College, hopefully that would push through.

Hello, Ateneo

Aw... I've been ignoring my blog D: Sorry about that. Regular posting resumes now. :)

So I told you a bit about my block. Well, here's a little bit more: I love them. My block's the loudest and most diverse class among the freshman blocks. Ages range from 16 to 22; residence, from Quezon City to Austria to France. Energy level? HIGH.

Anyway, here are some of the pictures taken from our Orientation Seminar (thanks Isay). I'll also be posting my schedule. Click pictures to enlarge.

Where do you think I am? Hint: red shirt

I'm holding the TR sign

With TNT's (stands for Talk and Travel... I think :P) Gabe and Exo

I'm the one with a peace sign on top of my head (blame that guy beside me, Jek :P)

And here's my sched. :) I like it, BTW. I share the last three subjects of my MWF with my block mates, so it's all good. :)

Kids on the block

Haha, this blog hasn't been updated for a long time, ew. Our PC crashed so I had no internet access for almost two weeks.

Anyway, we had our orientation seminar (OrSem) in AdMU for the past three days. I got to know my block mates (block TR - short for 'transferees') and we hit it off right away. They're fun to be with, especially the guys; they're a crazy bunch. And believe it or not, our block has the three tallest people in the batch. They're a head taller than anyone!

So... I'm kinda bored. Yawn.

Bend in the road

I do not not post because I'm lazy, but because I've been too busy. *cries* I had - and still have - to go to Katipunan to take care of my transfer.

By the way, I passed UP (Speech Comm), but I chose AdMU anyway. And yesterday I was on the brink of changing my mind 'coz mum told me that dad was talking to himself when he saw the tuition fee of AdMU ("...Sa UP nalang kaya si Kring?"). I feel really bad that, compared to when I was in Miriam, he has to pay a whole lot more, and not to mention my brothers' tuition fee also increased a lot (it's now 60K+ for Bryan, 70K+ for Kyle).

I chose AdMU as I thought my parents would prefer me to be there than to be in UP. Besides, I've chosen the courses I wanted in both schools, so whichever university I go to is fine with me; it's up for my parents to decide. So they told me that AdMU is better as I had a better course there and that some of the subjects I've taken in Miriam will be credited in the university. But thinking of the finances... I just feel bad that they have to pay a lot. And to compare the tuition fee with that of UP's - they would've been able to save the finances for some other important things.

Another one of the factors of why I chose to be in AdMU is because of my paternal relatives. Before, when they asked me the course I have chosen in UP, they commented that the courses were "not good", or in Filipino - "pangit" so I asked myself whether or not it really was a bad course, and of where I will be heading when I graduate with that degree. When they asked me my courses in AdMU, they told me, "Ano ba 'yang courses mo, Kring" as they didn't know what the course descriptions were. Taking into consideration what my parents told me, I decided that yes, it would be better if I studied in AdMU - atleast these people can't say that I've made a mistake (and make me feel bad or stupid) because I chose to study in UP with a course that's "not good"

Well, that was before.

Last Sunday when my relatives found out that I passed in both universities and that I chose to be in AdMU, they again asked the course I applied for in UP. When I told them "Speech Comm" they suddenly told me, "Hey, that's a nice course!" A big WTF. With that - and with dad talking to himself last Sunday night- I started questioning whether it was a mistake to apply in AdMU.

But this is the university I chose to transfer to. I can't turn back now. Heck with the finances - I'll make it up by being in the dean's list. And as to my relatives - another big WTF. I don't want to talk to them about my college life again.

SMEXY :)

Note: You don't have to be interested in anime to understand this post. Just read along.



I just finished watching La Corda D'oro. And what can I say... -_- I've fallen in love with a couple of non-existent guys! Again! *sobs* This is what I hate about TV shows. They make you emotionally attached to either the characters or the story, ignoring the fact that they depict little resemblance to real life. Gah!

I want to share with you the guys of the anime; I'm sure one of them will catch your interest. Haha. You're probably thinking, "This Kring, what a freak she is..." Well... I know right? XD Just now, pleeease? :)

Len Tsukimori

Okay, so for me, this guy's the hottest. Haha. I mean, really. He's mysterious, anti-social, and full of pride, but deep down he's a nice guy ^_^ He's also a prodigy, being very good at the violin.

If we met in real life (allow me to fantasize): He probably wouldn't take notice of me and wouldn't care less about me (this is what comes up even if I fantasize)

Azuma Yunoki

Second hottest guy. At first I found his image a bit too... overused in depicting a pretty guy, so I thought that he wouldn't be of interest. But I was wrong. As the series progresses he becomes smexier! XD He's kind, talented, and very smart, but all of this is just a cover up of his true, dark self. Plays the flute.

If we met in real life: He'd be overly kind and formal with me, just as he is with everyone else. But deep down he'd find me annoying (Damn it, this fantasizing doesn't work)

Keiichi Shimizu

Young and cute! He's always sleepy and confused, and he talks slowly. He's just so adorable. ^_^ Sometimes, it's hard to understand what he's talking about. Plays the cello.

If we met in real life: Hm... I'd probably think that I'm talking to an alien: I just wouldn't get him. But I could stare at his face all day without him caring.

Kazuki Hihara

Very friendly, and knows no social boundaries. He's also athletic and full of vigor. The most outgoing of all the five guys. Plays the trumpet.

If we met in real life: Now this! We'd probably be friends ^_^ We're both wacky and cheerful. I could hang out with him all day long! Hah!

Ryoutarou Tsuchiura

An athletic guy. He's very kind and is best friend material. He's the least appealing for me, so... -_- there's nothing much I can say about him. Plays the piano.

If we met in real life: We'd be friends, probably. Yeah, that's it. -_-

And could you believe that all five of them fell for this girl?!

Argh, I just hate it -____- And can you believe she's being paired with my love, Len?! Just because she plays the violin doesn't mean you could pair her up with another violinist!

Anyway, got to go. Still have to fix some matters regarding my reservation in AdMU. :)

La Corda D'oro = ♥

I'm sorry I haven't checked your blogs to see how you guys are doing. All I can do nowadays is update mine; this week has been my busiest and I barely have time to surf the net. I promise I'll get back to you next week.

Anyway, here's what I did for the week, if you want to know:

Monday

• Went to UP to see the schedule of my interview (got lost in the way)

Tuesday

• Had a panel interview in UP and passed
• Went around UP to check the schedule of interview for my other courses
• Checked my ADMU results (passed ü)
• Driving lessons started

Wednesday

• Had my test in UP (on the 12th, we'll see if I passed)
• Went to Miriam to get 2 copies of my transcript and a copy of my Honorable Dismissal
• Driving lessons
• Fussed about what to wear on Marvi's debut

Thursday

• Prepared things before going to Ashleiy's house (stayed there overnight)
• Fussed over what to give to Marvi
• Attended Marvi's debut

Today

• Driving lessons

Saturday

• Fix things before going to Sta. Mesa
• Go to Sta. Mesa
• Dental appointment

Sunday

• Go to Bataan with my family

I'm sorry if the list is actually short, but I'm not used to being this busy! Argh! I actually gained 4 pimples this week, all clustered on my left cheek -_- The agonyyyyy!

On a lighter note, I'm so obsessed with the anime La Corda D'oro Primo Passo. It's a neoromance about a girl who doesn't know anything about music until she sees a fairy who gives her a magical violin. She's then chosen to compete in a musical concourse, and all of the male contestants - five of them, mind you - develop feelings for her. The story is so nice; and the guys... o_____o;;; they're soooo handsome! -__- How I wish I'd experience the same as the girl did o_o Anyway, I watch not on Youtube, but on Crunchyroll. They have a complete list of episodes, could you believe it (we don't have Animax, so there).

Well, off I go! Gonna watch some more. ^^

GLORY!

I passed the Ateneo.

And I'm too happy to say more. <3

Interdisciplinary, here I come!

Fast and Furious

I came back. Oh my gosh, could you believe it. I'm actually updating this blog.

Anyway, I have no plans of shutting down my blog; I've just been too lazy to update. Although I have to say that the previous days have been good. I wasn't that bored as I was busy.

So! Last Saturday I went to Ashleiy's house coz her dad was going to treat me to lunch (late birthday present - my birthday was February 1). We ate at... what was it called? Panday Hill? The restaurant offered Malaysian food, and oh my goodness. It was so good. So delicious. Spicy! I love the food the moment it touched my tongue. We also went to the Oceanarium (though we didn't bother going inside the Oceanarium as we originally planned, the place was jam-packed) and to SM Mall of Asia. It was great. I had a great time bonding with Ashleiy and her family. :)

What else... oh yeah. I finished two books in just a week. Can you freaking believe it. And the first book I read, I read only while I was in the hospital waiting for my dental appointment. Talk about an accomplishment (well, it is for me).

Oh, and you know what. Dad bought the New Beetle. At first I was jumping for joy, then I found out that he was going to give it to my aunt later. -_- Is this the Boulevard of Broken Dreams or what? But it's okay - I planning to get it from my aunt later, when I'm already good at driving. Mwahaha...

And driving! Oh yes, driving. The lessons will start on Tuesday next week. Yippee! After that I could finally drive on my way to school. I'm so sick of commuting. Aside from the academics, commuting's one of the reasons why I don't want to go to school (hehe).

Ah, and yes - I've been preoccupied with two things: Deviantart and Harvest Moon. The latter's a game I've been playing in the PS2. It's addicting :)

This post's a mess. I'm typing so fast and have no time to correct typos, so sorry my post is not "readable" XP And the music? It's from the anime Rorouni Kenshin/Samurai X. Yes, I love anime. Very much.

Car Story

This is the car that I'm supposed to have.
The Volkwagen New Beetle.


Dad already gave a down payment for this, as he was planning to make it ours.

But unfortunately, Ninang Tetet decided that this is the car that she wants, thus dad backed down and gave way for her to buy it.

T_T

Heavens.

Dad already gave a down payment, but we won't be getting it in the end? So tragic. But it's okay; I'm still a beginner, and it wouldn't be nice if the car I destroy (haha) is a yellow New Beetle.

And the time will come when I'll be so rich, I could buy a hundred Volswagen cars without feeling bad.

A random thing happened two weeks ago. Take a look at the picture:

Do you spot anything?

A kitten! In the car's engine! Haha, so cute. Apparently our Labrador, Cindy, hates cats - she actually already killed two by crushing them in her mouth. When she spotted this kitten, it made a mad dash to mum's car's engine and stayed there for a long time. We tried making it go down, but nothing worked. Too bad, I wanted to pet it. -_-

By the way, dad's coming home from Hawaii today. He only stayed there for five days, goodness. Reminds me of when he also went to the States and stayed there for less than a week. I hope he bought Hawaiian King - it's a brand of chocolate with Macadamia nuts inside, and it tastes like... okay, so cliche - like Heaven on earth. But it's really good!

I have to tell you that, partly because of Chalfonso's influence, I got a bit interested in yaoi (yaoi=boy to boy). I know it's weird but, sigh, yaoi drawings are so cute. >_> Although I'm only interested in drawings and not on stories. I've already drawn yaoi, but I'll show it to you some other time.

Click here to see one of the yaoi artworks I found interesting on DeviantArt (hey, if you don't like the subject matter then it's none of your business T_T). I don't know why I suddenly had an interest in yaoi, but what the heck... why do I keep explaining myself?

And speaking of Chalfonso... T_T I hate her. She won "Best Female Head Turner" in her cousin's grad ball. But can you expect less when she looked like this?




Mind you, she took these pictures after the grad ball. T_T

But we do know that birds of the same feather flock together, so if she's beautiful, then what does that tell you about me? Hahaha. Whoo! THE AIR! XD

The magnificent Body Building Belt

Suddenly I don't care about the blog's readership anymore. I just want to write well.

This day is screwed up. Last night my brother, Bryan, discovered a hidden treasure, namely the Body Building Belt, in one of the cabinets of my study table. I decided to give it a shot today. Having been kept away for so long, I thought it wouldn't work but holy hell - it did. And the neat thing about it is that I can adjust the vibration of the belt so that the workout would be more intense. So I adjusted it more, higher and higher --

- until I got electrocuted.

Geez, this Body Building Belt works through a battery and I get electrocuted? Where's the sense in that? I'm not going to use it again. Well... at least not today. Hehe.

My Heritage

So I even look like Jet Li, huh.

But in all fairness, I really do look like that girl up there (points to the upper one nearest me).

Or maybe I'm just dreaming. But! I know that I'm going to be a celebrity soon, so why compare myself to other celebrities? Haha.

Speaking of dreaming, since last week I've started to remember my dreams. When I wake up I remember the important details. Even if the day has gone, I still remember them. Cool, right? This is the first step towards lucid dreaming. For those who don't know lucid dreaming - it's when you're aware that you're dreaming while you're dreaming. And with this, you can take control of your dream, and you can do anything you want, like fly or travel. I really want to master lucid dreaming because I can travel to other countries for free ;P

By the way, I made a new, private blog in which I will show a more serious side of me. I've noticed how I've been goofing off in this blog, and I don't think it can help me with my writing skills if I keep joking around. So there. But I hope I'll still write here as regularly as before.

Anyway, time to write at the other blog. Ciao!

A petty argument

Many of you want to know whether or not the three-day diet worked on me. I actually can't tell - our weighing scale's not working. But mom did lose two pounds (not forgetting the fact that she was actually snacking on fruits in-between the diet). But I have to tell you that these type of diets aren't recommendable as it focuses on quick weight loss rather than safe weight loss. So I think the best you've got to do is eat in moderation and exercise/go into sports. Not only will you lose weight but tone your muscles as well. :)

Anyway, this summer I've been doing nothing but eat, read, play the PS2, and go play badminton with my brother, Bryan. It's nice that I finally have a daily workout, but aside from that, I feel like I'm not that productive. I mean - I'm not learning anything new and not meeting new people. Which is disappointing as summer is the perfect time to, well, have time to do these types of things. But, whatever. I don't know how, but I'll make sure that this summer's going to be a fruitful one.

Mum and dad kind of got into a fight last Saturday night. It isn't exactly a "fight" as it was only mum who was angry and dad was just his usual self. It happened like this: mum was stressed 'coz she did lots of things that day and wasn't able to get enough sleep. She sat down in the living room and called for a cab to bring my aunt and cousin at the airport the next day. Then dad comes to the living room and asks her where the change of his money was, mum having enrolled Bryan at Kumon. She said that she used it to buy ice cream for us. Then dad laughed and joked, "Why did you buy ice cream? It isn't your money," and I laughed with him. After all, these types of jokes are very common in our family. But mum didn't laugh, glared at dad, and said, "I have money in my bag, if you want your change then get that" I was surprised with the way she responded, but I was still laughing, and I said, "Mum, it was just a joke" Then she looked at me, gave me a face, then suddenly slammed the receiver to the floor. She then marched to her room. Dad and I were like, what the hell?

I was very alarmed. I knew she was crying at the room. Dad just told me, "Ang pikon ng mommy mo (your mom isn't a sport)" and proceeded to watching TV.

You may think that dad's insensitive to not approach and apologize to mum right away, but he's like that. He wants mum to cool down first before he decides to talk to her. Either that or he just talks to mum about trivial matters the next day, and they become okay again.

Then suddenly mum's plans change. She decides to go to work the next day, Sunday, not go with us to our relatives, and not join us in our game of badminton. I was irritated when I found that out, because mum's starting to hurt us, her children, too. I mean, if she's angry at dad she should not make her children feel as if something's wrong. I wanted to tell her that, but I didn't have the guts to.

Anyway, they're already okay, I think. They talk normally and mum's starting to laugh at dad's jokes again. I just hope I wouldn't see or hear of them fighting like that again. Having a very happy family, that type of scenario's already too much to handle.

Dad's going to Hawaii tomorrow. Tomorrow! And he just told us last Friday!

Makes you think that my parents are okay as dad's going to Hawaii tomorrow, right?

I'm very envious of him. I want to go with him -_-

Genius brother

The person shown in the video isn't my brother.

But the piece being played here was also played by my brother last night.

And he played it ignoring the fact that he hasn't taken up piano lessons.

He just thought of the notes he would use and did a trial and error.

And he got it. Greensleaves by Mozart. -___-

He also got the Mr. Bean theme song and two of the Samurai X instrumentals.

...

Why is he much smarter than I am?! Oh well, at least I overpower him.

Okay, so mom and I are currently on the three-day diet, and this is our first day. I'm doing pretty well; I thought it that this diet's hard because my intake of food is so small, but as of now I could still manage.

The diet promises to shed off 5 to 10 pounds in three days because of the interaction of the food with one another. Let me share with you the meals:

DAY 1

• Breakfast
• Black coffee/tea
• 1/2 a Grapefruit or juice
• 1 slice of toast with 1 tbsp peanut butter
• Lunch
• 1/2 cup tuna
• 1 slice of toast
• Black coffee/tea
• Dinner
• 3 oz any lean red meat or chicken
• 1 cup each of
• Green beans
• Carrots
• Regular vanilla ice cream

DAY 2

• Breakfast
• Black coffee/tea
• 1 egg
• 1/2 a banana
• 1 slice of toast
• Lunch
• 1 cup of cottage cheese/tuna
• 8 regular saltine crackers
• Dinner
• 2 beef franks
• 1 cup of broccoli/cabbage
• 1/2 cup carrots
• 1/2 banana
• 1/2 cup of regular vanilla ice cream

Day 3

• Breakfast
• Black coffee/tea
• 5 regular saltine crackers
• 1 oz cheddar cheese
• 1 apple
• Lunch
• 1 boiled egg
• 1 slice of toast
• Black coffee/tea
• Dinner
• 1 cup each of:
• Tuna
• Carrots
• Cauliflower
• Melon
• 1/2 cup regular vanilla ice cream

So, how does it sound like? Looks pretty hard, but I think I should eat slowly so that I'd feel fuller.

Have nothing more to say. I can't wait for my driving lessons.

Blah and blah

The reason why I haven't updated for a long time? The PS2.

Finally! After a year of waiting, dad finally thought of having our PS2 fixed. And now it's finally okay! Yippeee!

I bought two new games to kill my time with, and since I'm into RPGs (role-playing games), I got Shadow Hearts from the New World and Dirge of Cerberus (Final Fantasy VII)



Okay, so much about that.

My clique went to my house last Wednesday. It was so much fun! Though they left with so much mess... T_T We had a great time singing (since I borrowed my Ninang Tetet's Magic Sing), but two of my buddies stayed in my room all day, either just lying down on my bed/surfing the net. They refused to go out of the room because it was air-conditioned, and going out would be too hot for them! So starchy.

My friend, April, has not uploaded the pictures yet, so this picture will have to do. It was taken last June. T_T

Oh, and it was mom's birthday last Thursday. We ate in Maxs like, two times. Haha. Ube Decadence is so delicious.

I'll be taking driving lessons already! ^___^ At long last. All the sessions will amount to ten hours. I'm so excited! And I hope dad buys that car he's been eyeing on (Toyota Yaris). Or, if the gods allow it - I hope he buys the other car he's been eyeing on - the New Beetle.

Oh, it is love~♥

I've been blabbering about random things as I have nothing to say (apparently nothing significant's happening in my life right now). 'Til then!

No damnation, please

Happy 18th birthday, Jil honey. A girl like you deserves nothing but the best.Ü

Anyway, it's 12 AM. I'm kinda restless. Check that - I'm agitated.

I just received my freaking report card. Want to see it?

Holy. I couldn't believe it.

I got an crappy, effing 2 in Math.

I had a codigo and all in my finals, but I still get a 2?! It's repulsive! (And to think I got a perfect 5 in the subject last semester... -_-)

I'm really, really worried about how my dad would react to that. All this time he's been thinking of how brilliant I suddenly am in Math, only for him to see my crappy report card and realize that his daughter is below average in her Statistics.

And Sociology? Don't blame me - blame our prof. She's one of if not the most useless prof I have ever had. If she's a normal teacher, she should've 1) brought her class record and other academic stuff in class and not just her handbag, and 2) realized that I actually should get an FA in her class as I have been present in her class for only half a semester.

Dammmmmiiiiiitttt.

I should pass ADMU and/or UP.

I don't want to go to Miriam anymore... -____-

I'm gonna cry already.

LOL. I should really use The Secret right now.

That is, like, so gay

Japanese people are so cute -__-

And I hate the fact that I love Japan. I mean, loving a place where you know you won't fit in, with the barriers and all - that sucks man. I want to be Japanese (but I'm not complaining about being Filipino, I'm actually proud of that)!

But anyway...

This video made me laugh hard. I know it's kinda corny, but still - it's funny.


By the way, when we were in Camsur Watersports Complex my brother, Bryan, conversed with a foreigner. They talked when Bryan finished a round in wakeboarding...

Foreigner: How are you?
Bryan: I'm fine, thank you.
Foreigner: You're a much better swimmer than your sister.
Bryan: How did you know that I have a sister?
Foreigner: I heard you when you called her 'ate'

...

T___________T

"You're a much better swimmer than your sister"
"...much better swimmer than your sister..."
"...swimmer than your sister..."
"...your sister..."

Urgh! Is my swimming that bad?! Well, what's there to expect from a non-athletic, unfit, aging lady like me compared to an athletic, healthy, vigorous and active eleven-year-old?!

And that comment came from a foreigner... T_T
