Just for Kicks

I want ice cream..Now na! Grabe, I am so craving for ice cream! And kung kailan pa ko nag-decide bumili ng caramel hot fudge at Mcdo (which I occasionally do) kaninang lunch time, hindi ako nakabili because sira yung ice cream machine! What luck..Hehe. One pint of ice cream I want!

I am sooo feeling the summer vibe. Whoo! But..I still have so so SO much school work to do! Nakaka-inggit yung mga bakasyon na! Pfft. But oh well, I’d rather be going to school than be depressed at home noh, no money pa..Hahah. I am looking forward to our family camp on April 5-7 though, konting bakasyon muna before finals week comes! :) We already kind of planned on our fun night on the camp, and we will be having costumes. Nabunot ko is soldier! So I’d be wearing a soldier’s uniform. Weee I’m excited! :)

Moving on to a more sensitive topic, of course it’s really obvious on my recent previous entries that I am still not so okay with..you know. I still cry myself to sleep most of the time. Gosh, I’ve become such a melancholic. Choleric side, where art thou? I miss you na. Please come back! And, something really dramatic happened on his birthday. Now, I am stuck with a promise that I’d rather have to myself, though some of my friends know this. And starting today, I’ll try not to involve “this” in my blog anymore, because I really really want to move on now. Good luck na lang sa kanya and sa future nila. Hehe.


So there, I’ve said it. NO HEARTBREAK STORIES ABOUT HIM AFTER THIS LINE.

Hehe.


Oh, last Saturday too, BMS (Business Management Society) hosted a party at One Esplanade entitled “Spectacle”. Okay naman siya generally, but I didn’t so enjoy the party. Walang camera e! Pfft. Hahaha. Actually, I had a camera. Problem was, wala yung memory card inside! Tinanggal pala ng sister ko. Tsk tsk. So I just went there to watch the Mr. and Ms. BM pageant (which for your info, ay obvious naman kung sino mananalo. Nahulaan ko na e), have a good night with my friends, and party before hell week starts! Haha.

Of course, kaninang ENTRES period namin, obviously Sir Harvs wouldn’t miss talking about what happened in Spectacle. For about 20 minutes of the period, yun lang yung pinapag-usapan namin! Excited siya e. And he was so proud and happy na maayos and maganda daw yung party, compared to last year’s. Siyempre he also talked about the Mr. and Ms. BM. And he is also excited na for the NEXT YEAR’S BM party. NEXT YEAR pa ha, kamusta naman. He was already thinking of ideas for the next Mr. and Ms. BM. Haha. Dapat daw mas strict na and mas meticulous na ang pagpili ng contestants. They will be choosing 30 girls and 30 boys as the initial contestants and there would be a pre-elimination round wherein they will be choosing the 12 boys and 12 girls to compete on the night of the party. Gusto pa niya may overnight ek ek yung contestants wherein magsstay daw sila in one house. Siyempre may PBB aspect. Lagi naman e. Haha. Lastly, he added that next year daw, there should be a talent portion na daw. Ngek. Kung sasali ako, HINDI ako agree sa talent portion no! That’s the humiliate-yourself-in-front-of-people portion e! Hehe.

Then, Sir Harvs already scouted sa class kung sino yung mga gusto niya isali for the next Mr. and Ms. BM. Sabi niya “Next year and mga dapat sasali si..blahblahblah..” At kamusta naman, while I was busy doing something (kasi I don’t usually pay too much attention sa mga stories niya noh) unang-unang binanggit niya was my name! Sinasali na ko for the Mr. and Ms. BM 2008! Hahaha. Well, pwede rin pero I just don’t have enough confidence (and willpower? Haha) sa mga pageant-pageant. Weird e, it’s like selling yourself. Haha. Plus, the talent portion pa! Okay lang yung question and answer e, it’s not that hard naman, based on the questions na tinanong sa mga candidates last Saturday. I can join pa sana if same lang yung gagawin like this Mr. and Ms. BM 2007 e, opening number lang, then you just strut on the stage wearing clothes of the sponsors, then answer questions! Kaso mas mahirap na next year if ever matuloy yang mga PBB eklats plus talent portion. Ano naman ittalent ko? Hahaha. But on second thought, if you win naman next year’s Mr. and Ms. BM, mas may sense of achievement kasi it’ll be harder e.

So..join na ba ito next year? Hahaha. I am not a pageant person talaga e. Ipa-engganyo niyo muna ako magpa-develop ng pictures na ippass. Dun ako na-sstuck e. Tinatamad magpasa ng picture. Haha. Join na? Just for kicks? :)

Whatever.

Wanna know what happened to me on March 24, 2007? Did I go to his party or not?

Just ask me. :(


But I'll leave you with this (and this was my friend Pat's text message to me):

"Naisip ko lang, you're fighting for your love for LJ by not fighting. Gets? It is here that you exhibit your love..By letting go. Only GOD will know if he is the one. I'm proud of you. Mwah."

I wana cry... :(

Friday, March 23, 2007

I can't take this.

Haiii. I am sad. Parang I'm so down right now and I don't exactly know why. Parang ngayon nagssink-in na I feel so alone kahit na maraming nanjan for me. Bakit ako ganito I don't like this. Dahil sa ganito ako, I stayed at school today 'til 730 pm (buti na lang open yung DO until that time, which is unusual). I was dismissed na by 440, then I stayed at the office 'til 730. Kwentuhan lang with DOPs. Because that's one place I can laugh, and forget about my worries, kahit for a while lang. It's like the DO has become my nearest refuge, that whenever I feel like so alone or konti na lang maiiyak na ko, I'll go there. Hay.

Actually, may pinanggagalingan yung sadness ko, though I feel deep inside that hindi lang ito yung cause. Hindi ko na talaga alam kung ano pa yung ibang cause. But the main reason of my sadness is, in less than 3 hours, LJ will be turning 20 na. Okay, we're friends. But iba pa rin na he'll be a non-teenager na tapos "wala" na kami. I mean..Ewan. I can't explain. Then of course, I got used to the 4 years na nakasama ko siya on his birthday..Well, for 2 years ko lang pala siya nakasama personally. Pero, all four years of his birthday, I was there. I mean, there were the greetings at exactly 12 midnight, the sweet texts and "I thank God he gave me to you" messages. Hay. Let me recall.

March 24, 2003. This was the first time I told him "I love you". As in "I love you" in a romantic kind of way. I remember pa na he was in his school nun sa Claret, having training. Then, his friends told me na nagwala daw siya sa tuwa when I told him that. Waaah.

March 24, 2004. I was with him March 23 pa lang. Because it was his prom day. I remember that it was my finals week at St. Scho nun, and I will be having 2 final exams the next day. But I still came at his prom. So while the transition from March 23 to 24 was happening, we were together.

March 24, 2005. I don't think we were in good terms during this time. Kasi 'til April, before his grad ball, nag-away kami for 2 months yata. But still, I remembered him and valued him as my own.

March 24, 2006. This was when my kabarkada Reg celebrated her 18th birthday. Same day. But after going to Reg's debut celebration, I went to LJ's naman because he was celebrating his birthday with his blockmates. I wouldn't miss that.

Haay. Grabe, this is so sad. What will happen now at March 24, 2007? I still want to be that special person who'll make him very happy on his 20th birthday..But, can I do that and will he allow me to? :(

Help. I am so sad. :(

Thursday, March 22, 2007

Never thought I'd miss it so much.

Uuuggghh. Grabe na itong sipon na ito. Boses ngongo na ko. Hehehe. Tapos naluluha-luha pa kasi sobrang kati nung ilong na gusto mo na talaga mag-sneeze, pero ayaw! Tapos I'm having extreme dysmenorrhea pa. Kamusta naman pati yun shinare ko. Haha. X)

Speaking of dysmenorrhea, girl thing ito. Hehe. I never thought I'd miss St. Scho so much.

When I rode the fx on the way home, sa harap ako umupo. I had a girl beside me, and I knew that she is a Scholastican, because she was wearing a St. Scho volleyball jersey shirt. After a few minutes ng paghihintay mapuno yung van, there were two girls na sumakay sa loob. Then they called the girl beside me, and I knew na Scholasticans rin yung dalawa. Pinalipat nila sa likod yung girl na katabi ko para kwentuhan sila. That's where it started. From La Salle to Paranaque, hindi na sila tumigil sa kakadaldal. Tahimik lahat ng nakasakay, tapos sila lang yung nagsasalita.

And that's the first thing I love in Scholasticans. Girl power! As in there's this really strong bond between friends lalo na pag classmates kayo. Even if you see each other everyday, hindi talaga mauubusan ng stories. Second, I miss the madaldal nature of Kulasas. Like I said, tahimik yung mga tao sa van, pero sige pa rin sila. Lahat tuloy napapakinig sa mga stories nila. Hehehe. Nung una, I was thinking pa how immature they were kasi yung pinagkkwentuhan nila were having crushes on their teachers. And take note, on FEMALE teachers. Hindi na ata talaga mawawala yung ganung kultura sa St. Scho. Girly yung mga students, and I know that the teacher they were crushing on was also a girl na hindi naman tomboy (pero pa-tough personality). I knew that because kilala ko yung teacher na pinag-uusapan nila. Naging teacher ko rin yun e. Hehe. I duno kung bakit nagiging crush nung mga students yung certain teacher na yun, coz as far as I know, every batch na natuturuan niya, may nagkaka-crush sa kanya. Ew. Eh I don't like that prof pa naman. Pa-cool effect e. Yung pa-terror teacher effect, eh hindi naman bagay. Haha. Kaya masaya makinig nung kwento nung mga students e, kasi kilala ko pinapag-usapan. =D Then, I knew kung bakit they were so into this teacher. They were highschool freshmen pala. So medyo 1st year pa lang nila of seeing this teacher. Hay nako, magsasawa din sila. Heheh.

And because sa mga yan, I began to reminisce my St. Scho days. Haha. Matagal din yun ha, I went to school there for 11 years, since Prep. Sobrang dami nangyari, which will never make me forget that school. Nung gradeschool, I remember pa that I was this super shy kid na may glasses pa na anti-social. Magsasalita lang ako pag kinausap ako. Waaaay different than who I am now. Hehe. And it's because of my experiences in St. Scho that made me a better person, and a more confident one too. It all started when I was in Grade 4, when I was nominated as a candidate running for the position of class PRO. Haha. Kahit class elections lang yun, believe me. Sobrang kabado ako. Kasi naman, my opponent was a very confident and intelligent student. As in no questions asked, kitang-kita mo talaga yung leadership traits niya. Pero wala, after all the pangangampanya and Miting de Avance, I won. Di ko alam kung pano nangyari yun. Maybe because sobrang bait ng tingin ng mga tao sakin, tapos tingin nila sa kalaban ko overconfident. Hehe. What happened to my opponent? She's now also studying in La Salle, but nag-highschool siya sa Philippine Science. Nakakatuwa kasi she still knows me. And I was right, she's now a student leader too. :) Tapos since that Grade 4 days, every year, I become a class officer. Actually, class secretary lang naman lagi. Since grade 5 to 2nd year HS. Nung 3rd year, muntik na maging Presidente, buti na lang hindi. Hindi ako naging eligible for elections eh, dahil sa excessive lates ko nung 2nd year..Haha. Pero umasenso din naman nung 4th year, naging class VP ako. Haha.

Pero ang highschool pa rin talaga ang pinaka-unforgettable. First year, there's the initiation. For us to be "officially" part of the HS department, magkaka-partner kaming 4th year HS. They would be our "big sisters". For one week, we will be under their rule. As in kahit anong i-utos nila dapat sundin namin. There would be days na papasuotin ka nila ng mga outrageous costume, and you have to follow it. Or papapasukin ka nila sa school pero yung schoolbag mo balde. Or papayungan mo sila pag naglalakad kayo. Those were the days. Heheh. :D

2nd year HS. Of course, interaction ang highlight. "First encounter" with boys. Hahah. I remember pa that before the interaction day, I thought of not going to school. Kasi naisip ko wala naman kwenta yun and that was for Kulasas lang na mahilig sa boys. And I used to be not one of them. (Does that mean na mahilig na ko sa boys ngayon?? Hindi rin. Haha.) Wala pa ko pakialam sa boys nun. Hehe. Pero pumasok pa rin ako. I remember din na when I entered the hall kung saan kami mag-iinteraction, wala pa ko sa interaction mode nun. I was finishing our lab report kasi nun sa Biology, submission day na kasi. But everything went unexpectedly great. And siyempre, that's where I met one of the most heavenly special people in my life, LJ. :) Mahabang storya pa yan, hindi kami naging close agad. Hehe. Sa ibang blog entry na yan. :p Another highlight pa pala was the Afro-Asian. Competition yan between sections sa whole batch. Parang presentation of assigned countries. Gagawa ng kind of play na may song na may dance. We were assigned sa Indonesia, and we won the most awards! Plus first place pa kami :)

3rd year. Siyempre prom. :) But honestly, I didn't enjoy my prom. Haha. Besides sa naging "rock prom", ewan ko nag-away pa ata kami ni LJ nung pauwi na kami. Hehe. I can't remember kung bakit, pero basta umiyak ako nun. Hahah. Another highlight was the Shakesfest. Parang Afro-Asian din siya, pero mga plays naman ni Shakespeare. Our section won 3rd place! Yay :)

4th year. Grad! Hahaha. Pero the thing I loved most during my 4th year days was my section!! I soooo love 4C! I remember na I was voted pa as "the most conceited" nung nagka-survey sa class. Hehe. And of course, member din ako ng mean girls. ;) Whoo! I miss na our retreat din at the St. Scho retreat house in Tagaytay, no cellphone for 3 days din yun ha! And the overnight SEE-Subic activity! Parang mini-CAT siya, and yung mga dala lang namin na gamit ay yung essentials. As in icconfiscate yung hindi kasama sa list na binigay sa amin. Tapos lots of tiring and sweat-producing activities, tapos hindi kami pwedeng maligo! Then we were made to sleep in a tent na kami rin magsset-up! Uy proud ako, ako nagdala ng tent for our group haha. :D And of course the graduation. Hehe hindi ako naiyak nun promise hindi ko alam kung bakit. Maybe because sobrang daming times na namin nag-practice na hindi na siya nakakaiyak. Mas feel ko pang umiyak nung practices, lalo na the first time we sang our grad song. Huhuhu.

Hay, grabe so many things to remember in St. Scho na hindi ko makkwento lahat dito. Basta, I am so grateful na tubong St. Scho ako, kasi I am proud of what I have become now, and hindi maipagkakaila, na St. Scho was one of the contributors kung bakit ganito ako ngayon. :)

Let's cheer for St. Scholastica! Haha. :)

dile-dilemma-han.

5 days akong hindi nagpost! No...Hahah. Grabe, everyday, I think of updating kaso lang it's either one of my siblings is using the PC, or kinain na naman ako ng schoolwork.

Top 3 things making me paranoid (as of now):

1. COMP2BU Final Paper - database eklats; BPI/BPR Study; revision of Chapter 3, 4 and 6; do Chapter 8 (Testing and Debugging of Database)...EVERYTHING should be done before Sunday! Phooey. I. am. not. a. computer. expert. Help.

2. FABUMAN Final Paper - family business "analysis"; just found a company; company profile pa lang ang meron kami; March 30 would be our reporting; April 2 would be the submission! Waaah.

3. FINAMA1 Final Paper - ito ang pinaka-kamusta naman sa lahat. We still have no DEFINITE company; still need to find 4 annual financial statements; haven't started anything yet; April 2 would be the submission too. Eeeek. O_o

There, there. In short, schoolwork really makes me paranoid right now! Sa aking bilang, I only have 13 days to go before my "summer vacation but not really" vacation starts! And ang dami pang requirements to do! At least in ENTRES1 where I love my group ♥, lahat masipag and everyone does their work talaga kaya minsan lang ma-ENSTRESS. Yeees. :)

Speaking of ENTRES, may kulit story pala ako. I was ALMOST "evicted" from big bro Harvs' yahoogroups. Hahaha. Pasaway na bata kasi ako. I forgot that one of his house rules was "not to post any message in the group that is not ENTRES/PRACTICUM-related. Ako naman itong si Ms. DO Paragon, nag-post ng message regarding the DO Email Address and Hotline. Nyahehe. Because I am under the Information-Dissemination team sa DO, siyempre ginawa ko lang naman trabaho ko. Eh nakalimutan ko yung rule ni Sir Harvs. So muntik na. Warning na ko. Hahaha. I love Sir Harvs na nga eh, kasi (1) he loved our Tsineelas product (we know it, because hindi niya kami binara, at wala siyang nasabing negative and he didn't complain about anything) and (2) he just gave me a warning for breaking his rule, when in fact nakalagay sa "house rules" niya ay "no warning would be given". So dapat talaga, evicted na ko. Hehehe.

Lumayo-layo naman tayo sa academics. Eww. Hehe.

Fully-booked na naman ako at the end of the week! This coming Friday night, Kimi and I (Ching, sama ka!! Kanina lang namin napag-usapan na pupunta kami eh haha) will be watching a concert of DLSU's Chamber Ensemble, entitled "An Overture of the Soul". Actually, wala naman talaga kaming plano manood, kaso Ms. Mitzie (our ECONTWO prof) said that she'd be giving plus points if we attend. Sayang naman, kaya punta na kami! :) But that means na mawawaldasan na naman ako ng P120 sa aking moneeeh. Pfft.

Mas lalo sa Saturday. Grabe na ito. 8 am I have to be at my church, because there will be a training for the teachers who will join the DVBS (Daily Vacation Bible School). Patay, gising na naman nang maaga yun. Waah. Hehehe. The training will be til 3pm. After that, direcho na siguro ako sa MOA because the DLSU's Business Management Society org will be hosting a year-end party. May plus sa ENTRES pag pumunta dun. Hahaha. And of course, I want to be there naman, sounds fun eh. Bilibit or not, I have never had a henna tattoo. Meron sa party. Magpapa-henna na kaya ako this time? :D Haha. The party would be from 7pm to 12midnight. But I THINK I will not finish the party. Why? It's LJ's birthday! He'll be turning 20 na. Waaah tanda na. Hehe. Though, I'm still not sure if I'll really go. Kasi naman, obviously, I'll see someone there at baka mainis lang ako. Then if hindi maganda mood ko, hindi ko na mapapasaya si LJ. Hay. Hay. BUUUT, it's his 20th birthday!!! Anong gagawin ko? Go there to make LJ know na hindi ko binalewala birthday niya kahit may event ako sa may MOA at kahit alam kong maaasar lang ako pag pumunta ako; or not attend LJ's party para hindi ako mainis pero magtatampo si LJ sa akin and make him think na just because "wala" na kami, I don't care na?

Grabeee, ang hirap kaya mag-decide. Friends? Help?

ENTRES-ting lamok-hunting!

Whooo. Tomorrow's our product critiquing. Yeah. Sana magising ako kasi I have to be at school at 8am! Bugger. Hope everything goes well, and sana we'll get a good grade. I have great confidence in my group, I know that we could do this! Besides, ang cute ng product namin. Hehe. Cute pa ng name. Tsineelas. As in Chi-neeee-las. :)

Our first prototype in ENTRES1! :)

Woohoo. Ang cute no? Paa ni Kimi yan. Hahaha. Prototype pa lang yan. We have yet to improve on our product. :) Basically the main feature of our Tsineelas is yung lahat ng sides nung tapakan may holes, so that one can do her own design ng sandals. Pwedeng weaved, covered, peeptoe, roman sandals, etc. We'd be offering different colors of ribbons din, depending sa taste ng customer. One sandal, different designs! :) Saves money. Pag binebenta na namin, bili kayo ha! :) [Request from the author: Kindly don't use or share this idea to others, kasi pinaghirapan namin ito and we just don't want our ideas stolen by other people. Respetuhan lang. :)]

ENTRES-related again, I so hate the idea ng peer evaluation ni Sir Harvs! Pag-aawayin pa kaming mga groupmates! Pfft. To those na hindi nakakaalam, our peer evaluation would be like "Pinoy Big Brother" daw (forgive our prof, showbiz addict kasi yun at may plano din atang sumali ng PBB pero pakipot pa, overqualified daw siya pero lagi naman niya binibring-up yung PBB! Iba talaga pag vakloosh ang prof.), wherein we have to (1) rank our groupmates kung sino pinaka-nag-eexert ng effort to the least, and (2) we have to forced "evict" two of our groupmates. Hay. You know how hard it is to vote of not one, but two pa of your groupmates when you love them so much? ♥ Pfft. Pano na kaya to. Sa Monday na ang submission. Nyaar.

Moving on to a different topic, may rage ngayon dito sa village namin. As in as far as I see (at least sa street namin within the vicinity of our house), fad talaga siya. Hehe. You know kung ano? Yung pampatay ng lamok which looks like a badminton racket. Hahaha. Ang kulit talaga. Kasi that pamatay ng lamok is so easy to use, fun pa. You turn the switch on, then you also have to push a button while waving around the racket. Then when it comes into contact with a mosquito, nagsspark yung racket. This is because na-eelectrocute yung mga lamok pag nadidikit sila sa racket. Hahaha. Tunog watusi siya pag nadidikit yung lamok sa racket. Hehehe! So may pang-exercise ka na (coz you wave around your arm while finding mosquitoes), nakakabawas pa ng lamok yung ginagawa mo, fun pa na may sparks, may watusi sound effect ka pa! Hehe. I promise, hooked na talaga yung mga tao dito, as in pag dumilim na, may maririnig ka nang watusi sounds. Hehehe. Even sa tennis court na katapat ng bahay namin, nagpapatay na rin sila ng mga lamok dun. Haha! :D Nakakatawa pa when we first got a hold of the product, na-addict na yung mom ko to the point na talagang bumaba pa siya sa garage namin just to go lamok-hunting! Hahaha. If interested kayo, you can buy from us, it only costs P200. Kesa bumili kayo ng sobrang daming katol o incense na hindi naman usually nagwwork ng sobra. At least with this product, sure kang nababawasan ang lamok population. So let's go lamok-hunting! Buy now! :) Contact me lang if you have more questions pa :)

HAPPY 2 YEARS! =D

I just ate an uber sarap dinner: Chicken Adobo. :) Walang kapantay talaga ang luto ni Ate Winnie pag dating sa chicken adobo. Hahaha. Thanks Ate Winnie for the sumptuous dinner! ;)

Silver's (my blog haha) celebrating her 2nd birthday today! Yay! Happy Birthday Silver! Greet niyo rin siya, hehe.

Grabe, we had our 4th General Assembly at the DO kanina. As usual, masaya na naman! Lagi naman e. Hehe! Limitless energy kasi yung mga tao dun! So there, we had some reminders, etc. na I'd rather not talk about because (1) it's supposed to be confidential and (2) boring naman eh ano naman paki niyo kung ikkwento ko diba? Haha.

After all the reminders and announcements, we had a group dynamics activity entitled "Hand Language". Alam niyo na to, this is the famous activity where you'll draw your hand on a paper, then you'll write and draw certain things on that drawn hand. Ito pinagawa sa amin:

Wrist Area: Write your name or nickname or the name you want to be called (Siyempre I wrote jOn).

Palm Area: Draw a symbol representing your vision of your life in the future (I drew a sun, kasi I want my life to be bright and yellow, na ibig sabihin ay happy and full of energy! Hihi).

Thumb: Draw a symbol which represents life's greatest gift to you (I drew stick people haha, representing my family and friends! Awww *group hug* hehe).

Index Finger: Write one word which describes yourself (Pat, I borrowed your word. I wrote a one big FABULOUS! It's self-explanatory..Hahaha).

Middle Finger: Draw a symbol which represents your greatest growth experience. (I drew a flower. Because through my greatest growth experience, I was able to "bloom" into a better person. Naks. Haha).

Ring Finger: Draw a symbol which represents your unique contribution to the world (I drew a heart, which means I contribute my love. Yuck jologs ng sagot no? How unique. Hahaha nakakatawa wala na kasi akong masagot e).

Pinky Finger: Draw a symbol which represents your weakness (Sobra yan yung pinakamahirap na tanong!! Wala ako masagot!)

So eto na. Na-disturb ko na yung mga tao within my reach (yung mga katabi ko, at mga katabi ng katabi ko hehe) kasi nga wala pa rin akong sagot sa pinky finger, eh mag-ggroup sharing na. So I gave my paper to Mhike para siya mag-iisip ng weakness ko haha. First, he wrote letter "B", pero nag-react kagad ako! Hahaha sinigawan ko siya in short. So pinalitan niya. Then he drew a pentagon, at obvious ba alam ko na iddrawing niya. Hindi na niya tinuloy kasi hindi niya kaya i-draw yung lettering. Hehe! So pinalitan na lang niya. First, hindi niya muna pinakita kung ano dinrawing niya, then when I saw na what he drew, nakita ko he drew an arm with biceps!! Yaaak! Hahaha! (At this moment, alam kong tumatawa ka na Ching hahaha) Sobrang natawa ako kasi ang kulit nung drawing eh! Parang popeye, sobrang laki nung biceps! Hehehe! We left the drawing there, pero nung nalaman namin na ippass pala yung mga drawings, siyempre binura ko no! Then I put na lang the word "rejection". Nyahaha corny ulit. :p Pero, sa diin ng pencil ni Mhike, naiwan yung trace nung bicep drawing! Waah! Hehehe. Ang kulit talaga. XD

Group dynamics ulit! Ulit! Ulit! Hahaha :)

overfatigue

Grabeee. I was sick yesterday and the day before. :( Good thing I'm okay now, thanks for all your prayers friends, they were of great help talaga. And I was super touched to those who even bothered to text me and tell me that they missed me in school. You know who you guys are, I sooo love you people. :) Kaya I'm enthusiastic to go to school eh, dahil na rin sa inyo. Hehe. :)

Til this morning, I was thinking of what could be the cause of my 2-day fever. I had no cough or colds, had no tonsillitis, didn't remember na naulanan ako either (well, umulan ba these past few days? Di ko na pansin). So I was thinking kung ano ba talaga. All I remember was last Thursday, I was really excited to go home 'coz I miss my bed so much to the point that hindi ko na tinapos yung 230 to 430 residency schedule ko at the DO. 4 pa lang I left the office na and headed for home.

While I was eating my dinner kanina, that's when I thought of the reason why I was down with fever. And it was because of sobrang pagod. As far as I can remember, this was the first time na naging cause of fever ko is sobrang pagod. Now I'm believing what my friends say, that I've become such a workaholic. Started when LJ and I went..you know. Hehe. Can't blame myself if I wanted so much distraction right? I didn't feel too stressed naman; maybe mentally I wasn't feeling it pero yung katawan ko pala sumusuko na without me being aware of it. I've been working long hours at the DO, to the point that I leave school na at 6pm everyday when it should be 430pm-ish. Yung 430 onwards visit ko to the DO ay hindi na talaga included sa residency hours ko, but still, I work. Besides distracting myself, ay gusto ko rin naman ginagawa ko 'coz I love my work, and I love the people there. Yan tuloy, nallabelan akong addict sa residency..Haha. Then after traveling from school to home, shempre I can't rest right away kasi there's still schoolwork to do. Tapos aabutin ka pa ng 12midnight kakagawa. Then you'll have to wake up early pa the next day. There. That's why.

Perooo. Pasaway pa rin si jOn. Eeeh kailangan talaga eh. I was at the Corinthian Gardens (our plant site is located there) kanina with my business groupmates. We practiced doing our product, para pag-visit ni Prof. Harvs sa plant site namin, we all know na how to make our product. In short, I was back to work again kahit galing lang sa sakit. Hehe. And now, I'm doing my online homework in one of my subjects (while blogging?! Break lang, ito naman. Hehe). And this routine would continue until summer, 'coz fully booked na ang summer ko. Work din. :)

Hay jOn, magbakasyon ka naman! Hehehe. :p

It's a man's world.

Prince Charming # 1: The lost love. So many princesses want to have him; or at least have a prince like him. But he chooses not to have any of them for the reason he only knows. He'd rather be alone, in his own world. Searching for the perfect princess for him; for the perfect time to have her. He no longer wants to be hurt again; to go through the excrutiating pain he has experienced from his last love. So for now, he chooses to broaden his horizons and hopes that maybe, just maybe..He will finally find her princess or realize that she has always been there.

Prince Charming # 2: The child at heart. A charming, but not so charming one. May be finding love for the wrong reasons. Serenading every pretty princess that comes along his way, giving her flowers and lots of surprises. A very sweet prince, but he just not suits the princess' taste.

Prince Charming # 3: The illusion. It started with a simple, casual conversation. Then both enjoyed each other's company. It reached to the point where the prince thought that he was already falling for the princess. Did everything to have her. Became one of the sweetest persons the princess has ever known. But when confusion came into the picture, the prince was caught off-guard. Afraid to take the risk, he decided to leave her princess. And it all goes down to one thing. Simple. He is not what the princess thought he was.

Prince Charming # 4: The half-hearted. Haven't seen her princess yet again, but still drops hints that he is still waiting. He is stuck in a complicated state, where he has everything he has always wanted and needed. But the princess isn't part of what he has now. Which makes him wanting for more. He makes everybody confused, even himself.

Prince Charming # 5: The fallen friend. He is the princess' confidant, emotion-absorber, source of laughter in times of despair, esteem-booster. He has always been there for her. He has seen the princess in good times; he has also seen her when she thinks that the whole world's fallen on her. Still, he remains. He was willing to go against all odds just to be with her. But one thing causes great pain in his heart: he is secretly inlove with her. But he's aware that the princess would never look at him as her knight in shining armor. He knows that whatever happens, he'll always just be her friend. But his strong desire still keeps him hoping that someday, somehow, she realizes that he has always been waiting.

Each is a prince charming in his own way, but when will the princess know who would be compatible to her own "charm"?

And so she waits...

AND THEN, THERE WAS LIGHT.

Yes, and I know you know it. I still have the same excuse for not blogging for weeks. That's right. Schoolwork has got me. Eaten me alive. Causing me to be overly-emotional, losing my sense of balance. Yaddayaddayadda.

But, i still managed to give my blog a new design, right? =p Pambawi yan. Besides, my bloggie which i will call "Silver" from now on (and i don't know why either haha) will have its birthday on March 14. Happy 2 years old my beloved online journal. You've been through quite a lot. From my emo moments, complaints, rants, shout outs, advertisements, praises and moretocome entries, I know you'll always be there (unless i shut you down hahaha). XD

Well, here are just some of the photos (which by the way, you can also access at my MULTIPLY SITE) i have had since February 13, which was my last post before this one:

It's dated September 27, 2006. But I wanted to share this to you people. Why? Because THIS is just one of the very reasons why I am still in my (almost) normal state of self. These people are my beloved co-Paragons. Every moment with them is just wonderful. Bad things turn to good times because of these people. I don't know how they do it, but I can say that I've finally found my family in De La Salle University. =)

Disclaimer: HINDI SIYA ANG KAPALIT NI LJ OKAY. I know your next question. Wala po. =p Valentine's Day, and this guy (Marco) was the one who saved me from looking single-and-depressed (haha). Such a sweet guy. Lots of surprises, and all were appreciated. Of course, friends who remembered me during the day are also included sa aking heartfelt "Thanks!" =)


February 15, 2007. This was the day when we had a tribute party to our most valuable Discipline Officer, Tata Jack Pascual. The whole afternoon til evening was dedicated to him. The party was a fun party, an emotional one too. As Tata Jack moves on with his life and enter a new chapter, the DO will always remember him as someone who has contributed greatly to De La Salle University. [on photo: DOP Secretary Jon Hernandez, Tata Jack Pascual, DOP President Joel Concepcion]

This is what I was doing on February 16. Camwhooore! Woohoo. Hehe. On the photo is my forever classmate whom I love so much, Chingy! With us is Trisha, our blockmate! The school's celebrating its University week, so no regular classes, that's why I had a camera with me ;) Hehe.

Same day. Because of boredom, nagpa-pictorial na ko kay Ching, since she just came from LEAP's Photography 101 Class last February 13. Hahaha.

Night came. We attended the Animo Amplified Concert; this is the culminating activity of the school's University Week. Many bands played, such as Rocksteady, Sandwich, Callalily (ata?) and many more I can't already remember. Of course, the day won't end without camwhoring with my co-DOPs, Istine, Camae, Ava, Mhike and Eia!

February 17. I had a reunion with my 4C classmates, Cha and Tor and my 3rd year HS girlet, Jessica. Spent the afternoon at Glorietta and Greenbelt having fun and taking pictures. I missed these people so much! ♥ Waiting for another gimmick to come, kasi sobrang bitin! =)

A surprise dinner awaited me after my gimmick with the girls. Spent the evening with my kapatid blockmate, Micko. According to him, the dinner-out served as a stress reliever on my part, 'coz the guy knows how busy I am. Hehe. Thanks Micko, I appreciated it. Whoo for our funny photos! Hahaha!

This photo was taken on February 24. I, together with some of my Scholastican kabarkadas, attended Piyar's debut at Crowne Plaza. Yipee she was the last among our barkada of 14 to celebrate her debut! =) Our barkada had pictorials at the bathroom (a must for Kulasas hehehe) with our batchmates! Yay =)




And I was wearing this outfit because the rule was we should wear something rocker-ish. And I was a rocker chic. Hahaha.













Poof! There goes my life so far. Taking one day at a time, one step at a time, while enjoying the journey.. =)
