Upcoming Elections

2010-05-07T19:45:00.002+08:00

Honestly I never thought much about the coming elections; I never saw the reason to. I mean Villar just irritates me to death with his commercials, never considered Erap, I don't think Noynoy is ready yet, I only heard about Gordon from others, didn't think much about Gibo since he was associated with PGMA, and as for the others, I didn't know much about them.

I'm probably what you'd call a lazy Filipino citizen when it comes to the upcoming elections. I never got the urge to research on the candidates even though I had thought of doing it. All this time I was undecided and was simply basing my future choice from what I see and what I hear from other people.

But despite being such an awful Filipino citizen up until a while ago, I guess being unbiased to any of the other candidates helped me read through the whole blog my older sister sent me. The content was about Gilbert Teodoro.

It was a good read and I'm actually quite convinced. So from having absolutely no one in mind, I have a likely candidate now. However, I still can't say completely if he'll be the president I'll vote for.

The blog post about Gibo is here.

It Feels Heavy

2009-10-18T21:47:00.002+08:00

It's been so long since I've blogged. Everything, no everyday, seems to be practically the same old-same-old that I have nothing to write here. I've been the type of person who thinks into things too much so I've always been debating whether I should blog about it or not. And most of the time I choose not to. Multiply is a BIG NO. I somehow feel embarrassed to blog there. If I did everyone would read them, people I know. And somehow I can't seem to deal well with that. I think I still feel traumatic about what happened in high school between me and my friends, that I can't seem to do anything without thinking anymore.

-sigh-

I just cleaned out my inbox from the mails I got from multiply and facebook. And I just couldn't help but blog. I don't want to deny that I am envious of my friends. The only thing I'm proud of right now is my tablet that I got as a graduation gift from my parents. I love it and I use it a lot, but I can't help but want more. I don't think it's wrong to want more, it is, after all natural for all of us to want things. But it's just that the topic of wanting, no asking, for a camera is something I can no longer ask or joke about with my parents. It's not that I've given up on wanting one, it's just that there are much more important things to be taken care of first. I'm not saying this because it's what I should say, I mean I still crave to hold one of it from time to time, but I just can't stand to hear another heavy sigh. I've survived a quarter without one and only with a digicam, I think I can still survive the next with just that, no..I have to.

I know I'll eventually get to own one, maybe just not right now. And maybe I should concentrate more on improving my drawings. I'll get to own one when the time comes, I know I will. But I guess right now I'll have to go for a goal that I can achieve, one that does not require me to depend on my parents.

For now, I'll just have to continue on looking at the Olympus E-620 DSLR everyday. I'll own one someday, I know I will. :)

NEW Craving

2009-08-14T23:14:00.004+08:00

Rawr! So, now it's August and that means I am no longer a Frosh(since July pa..). XD

Haha..
Anyway, that now means that the photography course can be taken. One downside though, I don't have a SLR or a DSLR. They said that the first photography course was learning how to use an SLR (But it turned out our professor was ok with us using digital ones. He said he won't be teaching us technical stuff, but about concept.).

Well, we show up for the class and get our first homework. Our professor said that it was to assess how we are at photography and how much we learned from the video he showed us.

The next time our class met, he gave us another homework, our first 'serious' homework. He asked us to take pictures of objects that form all the letters in the alphabet.

We were like, "Ok." and left.

---

Now for the connection of this entry to the title. XD

Everyone was excited for the photography class, and so there they were buying cameras for them to use. I've always wanted one, but I can't have one.

I pretty much stood on the sideline with all these shopping spree for cameras by my classmates, but the announcement of our first 'serious' assignment made me even more determined to ask for a camera.

So I tried, eben though I knew I wouldn't get one that easily(we're not well off like my classmates are..>.<). Still, I gave it a shot. i got what I expected the talk about not having enough papers to buy one. I asked for a Nikon D40, but was turned down, they said it was too expensive. Now, my dad suggests I go check out Olympus since he thought that it would be more affordable. I did and found one that I really liked, Olympus E-620. Turned out, though, that it was a lot more expensive than the D40. But when I looked at the specs and compared it to Nikon and Canon, it really was more affordable. ---- Olympus E-620 Image from here.

Details here.

Wish I had more 'papers'

2009-04-14T18:26:00.003+08:00

Unfortunately my summer break will soon come to an end. I'll be going back to school on Monday, the 20th of April. I'm not saying that my summer was boring, it was actually quite productive. I thank Facebook, partially, for that. I got to improve my drawing and am now taking care of a virtual dog, so yeah, my summer so far is doing good.

Now I'm craving for new games to play, not that the ones in Facebook were boring. I miss playing otome games, so I went online to look for some. I've had my eye on a few for a while now, such as Ouran Koukou Host Club(DS) and Will O' Wisp(DS). I'm not sure of the story line of Will O' Wisp yet since I couldn't find any reviews of the game, but I'm inlove with the art. XD

I've only set my mind on getting otome games in the DS, but now I've thought of looking into PC otome games as well. I've already heard of Da Capo Girl's Symphony, though I'm not all that interested in playing or looking for the game. What interested me, however, was Garnet Cradle and Asaki Yumemishi. Again, I love the art. (lol..it seems what gets me to look into the games is their art..) Aside from those two, I just saw the opening of Starry Sky and, yes, I fel inlove with it as well.

It's pretty hard to get good games here and I don't have enough 'papers'(if you know what I mean) to even buy one. It seems that I'll have to graduate first and get a job before I can fully enjoy them.XD

Starry☆ Sky

Worst

2009-02-04T08:54:00.004+08:00

Officially the worst day of my life. First I woke up really late then scratched myself while cleaning my glasses and now I just got home from the bus terminal, still shaking from the hold up incident. Everything was already out of my routine, I guess I should have been expecting something worse. One weird thing about it is that I feel like I had a dream about it last night. Except it wasn't in a jeep, it was in a bus and it wasn't my cellphone that was taken from me, but my money. -sigh-

I really want to sleep right now, but I'm currently too scared to close my eyes. I keep recalling what happened to me and that gun that the man took out. He didn't aim it at me, but it still scared the hell out of me. They dropped me of just before the Coke Plant and from there I rode a tricycle to the bus station. I was glad to see a familiar face when I got there. I immediately approached the kid dispatcher and asked if he had a cellphone. He didn't so he directed me to the Controller of BBL. Once there, I started to cry while asking if I could borrow a cellphone so I text home. Everyone was very nice to me at the terminal, specially the controller. He made sure that I was comfortable and kept on comforting me on how I should be grateful that it was just my cellphone that they took from me. I am grateful, I truly am, but I still can't help but miss my phone. I kept a lot of dear text messages in there like 'I Love You' messages from my family and 'Thank you' messages from my friends.

I didn't go to school after that. My cousin picked me up from the bus terminal and took me home. It's not like I didn't want to go to school, but right now I'm too scared to go anywhere else but home.

Anyway, I'll go and continue looking for games, read manga and continue my oil painting to get my mind off what happened.

Currently craving for:

Ouran Parody-Hanegasaki Gakuen Host Club

2008-12-28T21:02:00.004+08:00

I just love this video!!

I'm a complete Ouran fan and, now, a Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side:2nd Kiss so this video was just really REALLY awesome! XD

I first found this in a photobucket account when I was looking for pictures of Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side(TMGS):2nd Kiss in google. The link brought me to a photobucket account and I saw the video. I was so shocked to see the TMGS characters as the characters of Ouran. the video was only very, i mean very, short though. Nevertheless, I still loved it.

And then I found the complete video in youtube and I just couldn't help but post it. XD

Addicted to YUU!

2008-12-26T18:06:00.008+08:00

Lame title..haha.. Anyway, I was referring to Otonari Yuu, my neighbor in this game I'm currently VERY addicted to.

Grrrrr..!!! I'm still all fidgety and stuff just remembering the game. LOL! I'm as weird and random as ever.

Okaaaayyyy.... Going far back to how it actually started, it was gift giving time early in the morning of December 25 (past 12 midnight counts as early in the morning, right? XD). I wasn't really expecting much since I knew that we were having troubles with a few things. I opened my gifts, which in total were only three, and didn't expect anything else.

After everyone had opened their gifts, my older sister and brother then asked me to sit with my sister and close our eyes. While we did as we were told, I could hear them excited about something. After they calmed down, they finally asked us to open our eyes. WOOT! Right before our eyes was A BOX of Nintendo DS Light. They reminded us to open the box first before reacting, so we did. Inside was my older sister's awesome card game, SET. I was like, "OMG! SET!". I didn't notice that it was actually my older sister's and it was just a joke to trick us and all. My older brother then handed us a paper bag of BAYO and inside was the actual NDSL with its charger and extra stylus and strap. It actually took a bit of time for me to actually take it all in. My younger sister was already crying and then I could feel that I was tearing as well. It wasn't long when I was crying with my sister. Tears of joy as they say!

Really, it was a shock! I didn't expect that my younger sister's continuous nagging, I mean reminder, for a Nintendo DS Light actually worked. I wonder if it would work for me too if I keep on nag~ err... asking them fro a DSLR. haha! Gah! It was all so...so...nice. Even my mother teared when she saw us crying. I mean, to me, just us spending the Christmas together was enough. I was already way happy when my older brother finally got home. I am not saying that just because its nice to hear or read, I was truly already very happy when the whole family was complete. I guess that good and happy feeling I've been having for the past days before Christmas was also because of the surprise my older brother and sister did.

The NDSL wasn't just for me and my younger sister, it was for everyone in the family. It was really nice to see that even my mother and my cousin was playing.

------------

Let's see, well I didn't exactly sit down and play yet after we got the NDSL. I was just watching my younger sister and the others play. It was just last night when I really, and I mean REALLY play. The moment it all sunk in, I remember about otome games. I found out about them while I was browsing the net and I stumbled upon Hiiro no Kakera. I wasn't really familiar with them yet, so I did more digging in. I searched for otome games in general since I didn't have anything in mind yet. I found Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side:1st Love and fell in love with the graphics so I decided to give it a try. I found one but when I loaded it, it didn't work. I was depressed. So I decided to try the 2nd installment, Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side:2nd Kiss. Success! It worked. It took me ages to finish just my name. Haha..It was all in Japanese so I had our trusty Japanese-English dictionary right beside me(mapapa self-study ako ng di oras..haha!). So I got it done and I was off to play. I started at around 8 ( I know 'cause my younger sister told me to stop at around 10, but it still didn't end up that way..XD) and stopped for a while at around 1:06 am. I packed it up and brought it upstairs when I saw that my older sister was still up. I continued to play until past 2 am. I told you, I'm ADDICTED!! Bwahahahaha...and now I'm itching to play again!

Hariya-kun!!!!!!!!!!

Doodle me this!

2008-11-11T18:30:00.003+08:00

Ok, I'm back.

I couldn't really update my blog since I've been cramming my plates. Hihi..I'm bad, I know, but the mood sets in at night and if I force myself to work when I'm not in the mood, it'll turn out to be ugly. Still, even though I stay up late a lot, I am very much enjoying college. I never really expected it to be this much fun. I especially enjoy monochromatic drawing, I'm learning so much from it and drew things I never thought I'd be able to accomplish. An example would be our nude sketching. I always avoid trying to draw realistically, but after our classes in nude sketching, I felt so proud of myself that I was actually able to draw a real person.
Another thing that I enjoy in monochromatic drawing is our doodle sessions. Our instructor allowed us to doodle on one of the walls of our room(covered with Manila paper, of course..). During our first doodle, she wasn't around, but we still went on with the activity. When she got back this morning and looked at the wall, she said that we didn't do it correctly, so we did it again for the second time. We were supposed to do another plate but then she decided that we repeat our doodle. An of course, we all agreed. They hurriedly bought Manila papers and markers for those who didn't have any. Once the Manila papers were up, we started to draw. Ms. Julie started it off and then the others joined in. I didn't get to draw at once since I was still helping the others put up the rest of the Manila papers, but I still had lots of fun.
I didn't know how to draw monsters so I was just a, how should I call it, a sub-filler(?). Ted and Jhay R were the official fillers as titled by Ms. Julie..:D. She wasn't wrong to choose them since those two are monsters when it comes to drawing.

When the doodle wall was starting to take shape, Ms. Julie was really happy about it and so were we. The second one was way better than the first and I agree with what our instructor said, we did improve.

Pictures can be found here: magnusforever.multiply.com
It's the multiply of my classmate. Go to the Doodle: Baby one more time for our doodle session this morning.

Oh and I just made a multiply account this afternoon. bwahahahaha.. The happy feeling during the doodle this morning didn't rub off yet so it inspired me to finally make an account. It's still pretty empty but do visit. Its doodle0me0random.multiply.com.

Frosh Week!

2008-07-10T20:48:00.003+08:00

Ha! I am finally going to school. Wee. I started this Tuesday. The first day was...well.. all right My cousin went with me on my first day and what a big help it was. The next day I went on my own and it felt scary yet fulfilling at the end of the day. It was really tiring but everything is worth it anyway.

This week is Frosh week in Mapua. A week just for the welcoming of the freshmen. It's pretty cool to have such a nice welcome. They have a lot of activities for us. Today there was 1 vs 100, the other day there was show from their Dramafest titled "Coffee, I miss you!". I didn't get to watch all of it though. There are also orientations for the different programs and food stalls at the South side of the school.

As for the classes. Well, they're ok. It's tiring to wake up very early early morning and commute to school, but I'm starting to have fun. ^_^x Yay!

Nostalgia

2008-06-10T20:19:00.004+08:00

I'm blogging again, yay! Well anyway, I took my sister to school this morning. I felt like I was the one excited to go to school. The night before, I couldn't sleep at all. I even got to watch Mr. Bean's holiday on HBO which was shown past 12 midnight already. But thankfully I gave in to sleep not long after I finished watching. It was strange, for a person like me who wakes up at around 12nn or 1 pm in the afternoon, I really woke up at around 5:30am. And I didn't set an alarm, too. I was so proud of myself. When I woke up I even thought that my sister already left for school since it was too bright for 5:30am.

I really wanted to see my sister off. I watched her eat, take a bath and change clothes. I knew that my younger sister was excited and I was too, even though it wasn't me who was going to school. On the way there, we met up with our neighbor at the 'Friendship park'. She was with a friend of hers. We went ahead but we met up with her again in the main road. When I saw them walking together and chatting happily at the same time, excited, I thought to myself, "I was just like that not too long ago." I held back my depression at that moment. When we got to school, I went with my sister inside up to her room. The hallways were buzzing with excited students, new and old, familiar faces and new ones. I saw teachers and greeted them happily. On the way out I glanced at the bulletin board that had the names of the students and their classes. I remember pretty well that I like to look at that bulletin board to see who my classmates were and if there were any new students. hearing the students greet each other as if they haven't seen each other for ages made me miss the times when we were like that as well.

Everything was so nostalgic when I went back to school, even if it was just for a brief moment. I've been there lost of times for the yearbook, but this was the first time I actually felt so sad(?). I'm not sure what word to describe how I felt. Everyone was so happy and so innocent. I won't blame them, most still have a long way to go before they graduate from high school.

When we got back to the house, I wanted to sleep again but I couldn't just like the night before. My thoughts were filled with so many things, most of them were the fondest memories I have with my friends. I don't regret anything that I did or how I went about in high school, but I guess I could've done more if I wasn't so caught up in my own little world. Maybe I'm feeling this way because I feel left behind by the others. But I think its because I know that what was happening all the time before(the funny jokes, the laugh trips, the goofing off, secretly texting in class, secretly eating in class, and so many more..) won't be the same anymore.

I wonder if these thoughts of mine is because all of us have been together for so long to the extent that we've been classmates since grade 1. And that I can't seem to let it go. I know that we can't be together forever but still....it makes me feel pretty down sometimes.

Geryl sent me an off line message with a link to youtube.
The video was about a robot created by a lonely scientist. The one she sent me was a RAW video, but thankfully there was another video that had an English translation of the lyrics. It was indeed very touching.

Details!

Wee! Finally after such a long time, a new layout.

I was honestly going for a darker color as the background, but it didn't look good. There was also supposed to be a diagonal red pattern at the back but didn't work out well when I started to code this layout. Main picture would be the young Itachi above the navbar. I mainly got the color scheme from there as well. Like I said in the navbar, I only used one brush on the actual layout(points up..). I basically put in most of the Itachi pictures I had and plastered them on the header. As for the others that I wasn't able to put up there, I used them in the banner, down under. The idea of the banner below was from
Suzaku Fanlisting"> when I was browsing my 'Kazoku'. I really liked the idea so I tried it. I also had help from Bie's previous blog layout. For the navbar, I was planning on making it stop after the tagboard but I'm still trying to figure that one out. My head was so blank coding this. I haven't done this for a long time that I felt like a beginner again.^_^x

I honestly need to explore more. I'm too dependent on Nica's code. Hopefully I'll be able to put up my personalized layout soon. I was supposed to use that instead of this but I didn't like how it looked like so I made and used this one instead. This should be all right for now.

Short!!!!

2008-04-28T23:16:00.003+08:00

The breeze is oh so nice..XD

I got my hair cut! I have short hair now..Well not super short just right. My hair still passes my shoulder a bit but since I had it layered, the front is shorter than the rest. It needs some time to get used to it but I like it. I'm going to have to learn new hairstyles to suit my clothes and mood now. hehe.. I like how I look right now. This is so rare, I feel pretty.haha..^_^x

The trip to the salon was way more expensive than I thought since I also went ahead to get a hot oil. They suggested it since they said that my hair was really dry. The hair cut was very quick. The hot oil was nice. The guy who did it was really nice. I enjoyed getting my hair cut today. It was way over what I expected but I can say for sure that it was worth it and it's not always that I pamper myself. hahaha..

I was right..!

2008-04-26T23:51:00.011+08:00

I just can't help but post in the middle of the night. I mean how can I not when my emotions are overflowing right now? I don't know exactly how or where to start. Just that I'm feeling..I don't know what exactly. I guess it's the feeling you get when you watch, read or hear something that touches your heart. As for me I read something that touched me.

I was lagging behind Naruto Shippuuden and couldn't help but catch up on the manga when my brother said that Itachi was a nice person and that Sasuke was going crazy. Who in the right mind wouldn't be intrigued by that?(-ahem- only my opinion..) I read on and on with my younger sister but had to occasionally cover her eyes because of some mature words.

Alas! Sasuke and Itachi's awesome fight came to an end and the last two chapters were great. There we learned much more about Itachi.

"It was to protect you."

I had tears in my eyes after reading that.

"You need to know about him..This man who risked everything to protect the shinobi world.. The leaf village..and most of all, his little brother."

And I cried after reading chapter 397. I never expected that to happen. But then again the simple minded old me only and always thought of Itachi evil. I loved how he and Sasuke got along before the Uchiha clan was murdered. Even though he said that he was only acting like an ideal brother, after reading the 397 and 398, I doubt that. He was a great brother till the end.

Aww..jeez! I calmed down now and I lost 'that' feeling. Tsk.

Anyway..In the last chapter Sasuke was all crazy. But who wouldn't since he was pretty much confused. Itachi tried to kill him and many more(won't spoil it too much..) and then 'this someone' tell him that Itachi was protecting him.

Now I can't wait for the nest chapter and find out more about the Leaf village and of course more about Itachi. I wasn't wrong to have stuck to Naruto Shippueden. I mean the twists and turns of the story...so nice. You really wouldn't it having so many chapters in the manga and so many episodes in the series.

Not so bad..

2008-04-24T17:52:00.002+08:00

Phew! Finally got home. We went to Mapua Intramuros today to enroll and boy was I nervous. My heart was pounding. The parents were asked to wait outside and only us the enrollees were allowed to go through the whole process. Filling up the forms was all right and we had free juice and snacks, too. But I didn't get to drink or eat because I was too nervous and even though i was felling hungry, I didn't feel like eating or drinking. I finished the papers that needed to be filled up and everything went smoothly and fast, or so I thought. The line for the 2nd step was long and slow. It was all right though since that process..err..step was to make sure the information on us students were correct. And it was even better since during that time I met a new friend, Janelle and got to meet a mother who was enrolling for her son. She was really nice. She asked for a biscuit from one of the people who was distributing them because I wasn't given any.

One of the things I was afraid of in going off to a new school was that I had no friends. I was scared since I'm not very outspoken.

Meeting Janelle was great. We had the same course and both liked anime. She likes to draw as well. Before I knew it I was next to go in the room for the second step. Talking with her felt great. By that time I already forgot how nervous I was and I then had better confidence that things would turn out all right. Although I didn't get to see her after the second step, we exchanged numbers while in the line and so we still got in touch after that.

I got my schedule and the subjects I had to take. I thought that we would have to choose but They were the ones who did that for us. All they asked was when I wanted my P.E. to be. I have classes Tuesday through Sunday. No classes on Mondays, obviously. My classes start at 7:30 am and the longest I'll be staying there would be during Wednesdays, up to 4:30. It's great even though I would have to wake up VERY early to get there. At least It won't be dark when I need to come home, less scary and dangerous.

The Psychological test, medical and dental exams come in at May. And I didn't expect that we were going to be interviewed by the Guidance Counselor(dum..dum..dumdum....hehe..kidding). My heart skipped a beat when I saw that. I'm just really not good at those stuff, but I'm sure it'll turn out all right(I hope so..^_^).

The whole enrollment process was a great experience. The travel was tiring and I know that I'd have to travel like that everyday, but I know that it'll be worth it.

disastrous..well almost..

2008-04-03T22:48:00.006+08:00

Before anything else.. I would like to offer my deepest apologies to the graduates of Laguna BelAir. I got caught up on arriving to school on time that I forgot to bring the cd for the grad. song. I'm so horrible I know, but please do forgive me. i felt terrible enough after we sang the song for two, unexpected, times. Ask my seatmates that night, I was in small tears. It was not intentional, I would never do something very inconvenient for everyone.I even had to hurry on the first day of practices to download the song and burn it in the blank cd(that I thankfully had..) when I realized I borrowed the wrong cd just so the practices would run smoothly. I do hope that you guys would forgive me.-bows-

-------------------------------------

Well I didn't exactly have a wonderful afternoon yesterday before I cam to school. I was so worried that I wouldn't make it on time. I just had to jump on the back of our bike and temporarily wear slippers to i would be able to make it. Thankfully when I got there, I felt a lot better. I saw Sir Bryan and boy was I happy! I was bummed in his class before(no offense sir..hehe..) having low grades but I do really miss him. He's fun to talk to and I miss that. I was glad that he could make it. The ceremony started and all pretty much went well. We all listened to the speakers and then off we went to get our diplomas and take a bow on stage. One of the best parts in the ceremony was the surprise Journalism award for Kevin. Everything was really going smoothly when suddenly it hit me. I was "OMG!"..I forgot the cd. Man was it bad.. It wasn't that horrible but it caught everyone off guard. When we got back to our seats to wait for our turn with the class picture taking, I was in small tears. I was telling myself "How could I let this happen?". It was an important day and I made things go down the drain. I kept on telling myself that I should've left it with Kuya Anthony. Boy was my head spinning. I was looking at Sir Norman and the other teachers talking at the back, puzzled why there any music. I was getting myself ready for a sermon. I felt gloomy inside but I couldn't let it show because my older sister was there in front taking pictures and a video while we were singing.

I did my best to get over it but honestly up to now, I still can't.

After everything, everyone was taking pictures with friends. It was great that I managed to get a hold of most of pahalajm.. Mhec wasn't there so I made up for it by taking a picture with her. It was a crazy graduation full of different emotions. But it was even crazier when we got home. Before we ate, my parents and sister showed me presents. I wasn't entirely expecting much but I was in tears of joy. It was the gift I've been waiting for for years. Up until yesterday, it was just a dream to have one. I got a cellphone sticker of Sasuke from my younger sister, a shirt, pair of slippers and underwear(hihi..) from my older sister, a watch and necklace from Ninang Ellen, a pair of earrings from Ninang Lyn, and last but not the least a Bamboo Wacom graphics tablet from my parents. I was overjoyed! It was just awesome. I sat down to look at it and it was thin and small. But eve so, it was the best!
Later that night I installed it and tried it with my younger sister who was as eager as me to try it out.

All in all it was an awesome night.

*Pictures coming soon.

New car song..

Haha..My blog is sooo dead..Soooo I will once again revive my blog and hopefully it wouldn't be dead again..^_^x

When we travel, sometimes we sing songs to keep us from being bored, like "99 bottles of pop on the wall 99 bottles of pop. You take one down pass it around, 98 bottles of pop on the wall...."(hihi..from Kim Possible..) or any other song. But yesterday, it was very different.

I guess everyone already knows about Ken Lee..^_^x Alan was singing it in the car yesterday while we were on our way to a friend's house. I didn't really know anything about it and it was the first time I heard about it but it was hilarious. I just saw the video a while ago when my brother showed it to us in youtube. My sister and cousin were laughing.

((sorry for a lousy come back post..still trying to get the hang of posting again..^_^x))

waaaahhhh...My Blog was dead!!

So Sorry about that. For a quick catch up..Well lets see..I've been tired, stressed, depressed, happy, had lack of sleep for some nights, was busy with school and had fun.

The school year is almost over, only a couple of months to go. I'd say this year was very interesting. A lot of things happened. though not all of them were good, it opened my eyes to so many things.

Aside from all that life long lessons, I'm really having fun. It was sad to be separated from close friends but I've learned to adapt and we still see each other in school. The class has been more chaotic. The boys always standing up and such, but all is well. It adds to the liveliness and fun of each day.

The parol making winners were just announced yesterday. I wasn't really expecting anything, though I'd hope we'd win. Oh well, that's life. Congratulations to IV-Archimedes, by the way..You guys did a great job..going back, getting the 3rd spot wasn't bad. I knew I should have chosen being third, so I could take the lantern home..hehe..Anyway, in the end, Richard won the raffle and he'll be taking the lantern home. I'm not objecting to it since he's pretty deserving. He really helped with the lantern. He wove the strips of magazine to help.

Aside from having fun with making the lantern, I became a saleslady for a while. I got an e-mail from my sister to help her sell some shirts. I quickly got to work sending e-mails to my friends containing the sizes and pictures of the shirts I was selling. My status that night was "T-shirts for sale!! Tell me if your interested." and my avatar was a picture of a sample of shirts my sister was selling. I was really happy when I got a customer..haha..The next day I brought a printed version of the pictures of the shirts to show the others who I wasn't able to send a-mails to. I showed them to my classmates and some were interested and I got to sell about 2 more. The guys were interested, but were looking for a guy version of the shirts "Little Miss Blue Eagle,""Little Miss Green Archer" and other school shirts.
I moved on to the Archimedes classroom at lunch to try and sell some. I shouted "T-SHIRTS FOR SALE!!!". There were interested ones but didn't place any order yet. After that I realized that I have no future in that business. I'm not persistent enough and I don't think I have the charisma to actually have a future as a saleswoman.haha..

After being a saleswoman for about a day. I was still very excited about the new Roleplay I joined. It's, so far, the only big one I've joined. I've never had to think of a character profile for days. I really wanted it to be good and I'm still excited about it today. I just finished my profile last night and It's already posted. The only problem is that the RP lacks characters. There are still characters the Game Master provided that need to be filled. I wonder why it's not being a hit. It's based on Ouran and I think Ouran is all right. It's one of te reasons I joined. I always wanted to join an Ouran or Ouran based roleplay. Oh well..I hope the spots get filled in soon. I really can't wait to get started!

The Power of the Wolrd Wide Web

2007-09-27T19:16:00.000+08:00

Now that we're living in a modern world, it's pretty cool how the WWW works. Although there are disadvantages, there are also a lot of good things from it.

I'm not exactly into friendster and honestly, I don't log in there much. My layout hasn't even changed for months now. It just rubbed off me now. But one good thing about friendster is keeping in touch with old friends.

I couldn't believe it when I checked my mail and saw a message from friendster. An old dear friend of mine, Hans, sent me a message. I was really shocked because it's been so many years since I saw him and he didn't say goodbye. After reading the message he sent, I was fully awake, forgetting how sleepy I felt and replied at once. There was so much I wanted to tell him but my happiness was just overwhelming. I couldn't think of what else to say even though I wanted to keep on going.

I said 'dear' because we go way back. We had the same service/school bus and we were always together, talking, while waiting for the service to come. We even befriended the school guard. I definitely had wonderful moments of laughter with him. I really miss him a lot.

*O, diba Hans...isang post para sa'yo..ganoon kita kamiss..^_^x

Anyway, always take care of yourself and do visit us if you ever have the time. Its our last year here in BelAir. If not, then maybe send me a message for everyone so I can put it in our Prom Video..hehe...We miss you very much(speaking for the class now)! Ingats!

Biscuits and Tea

2007-09-27T19:00:00.000+08:00

So many things to do so little time.

No,I'm no having a tea party. It's just that I've been sick for three, not so good days. It started most likely Thursday. I wasn't really sick that day, just that feeling like your going to be sick. Then I caught a cold very early in the morning, sneezing nonstop. And then of course, a fever followed. I felt tired and sleepy as always..nodding off once in a while. What felt like a nap fro hours was actually just a shut-eye of a few minutes, which annoyed me. And like the usual, too, I had nightmares. Well not exactly horrible nightmares, but I call them that when I dream about something not really good when I'm sick.

The next morning I was feeling better but I spoke too soon. My fever went up to 39.9˚, the worst I've felt in my life. Everything tasted bad to me, even water. I couldn't enjoy the tasty food at home either, specially my mom's homemade lasagna. And just my luck, our neighbor gave us bars of chocolate. Oh, how I wanted to eat them.

I always felt hungry, but I didn't k now what to eat. I wanted to eat at the same time I didn't want to. I hated that feeling. All my stomach gladly accepted was Sky Flakes and tea my mother made for me.

Thankfully my fever went down but I still felt lightheaded and I got dizzy easily, even in school. For a few more days I felt very tired after school and just wanted to sleep and sleep but I had so much to do.

-sigh-Anyway..I'm glad that was over..that was the worst I've felt and I hope the next time I get sick, my temperature won't be very high. Wait, I shouldn't be saying next time..
Right,better stop sleeping so late now(if only I could do that..hehe..)..

Weird Change

2007-08-07T21:47:00.000+08:00

I'm back..I should be doing another powerpoint presentation right now but since I'm full of energy..I'm going to squeeze this post in..

I'm not going to make it long..this has just been bothering me for sometime..It's a big bother because it's really a weird but good change..

For the past days I was actually enjoying studying..And I'm actually enjoying, some, other subjects in school. Economics seemed scary before but now I'm thinking, "hey, this isn't so bad.."(even though I still don't understand some of it..). English, I'm really enjoying. It's mythology, who wouldn't enjoy it?(only my opinion..hehehe..) Those are some examples. Oh wait..I forgot Physics. I'm actually participating and I'm really putting more effort to it. I mean I'm participating in exercises even though I wasn't called to answer. I know in the future lessons it'll be a lot harder and by then i won't think the same thing, but still, it's just unbelievable. Computer, well many like it right now. Yay, I'm learning DHTML!(didn't code my layout..read in the navbar..-points to the left-)

Another one from English. A few weeks after the start of classes, I was excited about our Word Lists. And last week I was excited about our long test about it(probably because it's the only thing I can pull off with a high score..). I don't know why, but I noticed I like to memorize or it's what I'm good at(when I'm in the mood..hehe..Although, after I've already used what I memorize, I tend to forget them..ahehe..).And I'm not so afraid of reporting anymore. I would usually put everything in the powerpoint and just sit there and press the button, but now I don't mind that I would talk,aside from reading what's in the presentation. I don't mind explaining(not sure if it counts as explaining...ahehe..)

I don't know why I'm suddenly fascinated with things in school. I've never felt this way before. This is TOTALLY new to me. That's why it's bothering me so much.

By the way, this is a song from GunXSword. I liked it at once when I heard it while ago. I'm not really sure why I like these type of songs..-shrug-

A whole new World

2007-07-27T20:35:00.000+08:00

I know my blog has been dead for sometime now but I assure you, I did not come back to rant. This update is way late but I'm still going to write on about it.

I guess you've all read Kevin's post about the elections. I wasn't really planning to run. But I thought that it wouldn't hurt if I gave it a shot and so I did. I ran as Secretary of the S.E.B.(Student Executive Board). As the Miting de Avance drew closer, I couldn't help but think,"maybe I shouldn't have agreed to running..it would be a lot easier with less responsibilities..and I'll enjoy my last year here..". But every time I think of chickening out, one thought kept on telling me to go through with it. And I did.

The room to room campaign was a nightmare to me. On the first classroom that we went to was Grade 4(my sister was in that class.).I cannot describe my embarrassment that time. I did not know what to say! And when I was done I said I was running for President! After that I hid behind some of our fellow party members. Ugh! that was the worst! But as we went along,I got the hang of it and eventually survived that day.

During the Miting de Avance,when I delivered my speech(I lost my voice for a moment that time..x.x), I said that "I don't want to leave this school without facing my fears. I did no want to leave the school without at least knowing that I can actually do this."(something like that..) And it's true..I'm terrified of public speaking. I don't like speaking in front of people but after that day I felt better. I faced one of my fears and even though i stumbled on a few words,I did it. And I was right to go through with it.

After getting the results of the elections I found out that I won(even though I ran..I wasn't really planning on winning.ahehe..). I thought,"ugh! more things to do..". "but then again..,", I thought.
Being a secretary isn't exactly new to me but taking down important things during meetings was one task that was new to me. Usually I'd just take the attendance in class and help out the teachers a bit, but nothing like my job in the S.E.B..

The Miting de Avance was a nice experience. It gave a boost in my confidence which is great since I'm not really a confident person.

It's just the start and I'm sure that there are still a lot more things given to me and a lot more busy days,but I'll manage..^_^x

the boat is sinking....

2007-06-24T23:03:00.000+08:00

it's this feeling again..and how i wish it would go away..not exactly depressed but maybe close to it..and to think that my day was a lot of fun..right now I'm disoriented in a way..I'm not sure what to pack in my small bag for tomorrow or what to do next after this..

i just watched PBB,didn't finish it though..it showed Gee-ann crying in the confession room after they told each other who they would nominate..that's when Wendy went crazy..but I'm typing this because of what Gee-ann said,then, to Big Brother..I can't remember the exact words but she somehow said that she always seemed like the bad person..It got me thinking,"hey, I feel the same way, too..". What ever it is that I do, it always seems to be a bad thing. It's like I have to watch my every move. It was a life I wanted to get away from. I felt like I never had the freedom that I wanted. I never intended to hurt anyone. I am just being me. Some may look at it as a big change and I get that, because we all change. The recent year of my life, I watched what I did and made sure I wouldn't hurt anyone but then right now, I realized that it might have been a mistake. Trying to make everyone happy by restricting myself from what I really wanted to do, may have been wrong. I lost myself that year. I couldn't find myself anymore. And up to now it's still chasing me. I don't know what to do anymore. Like what Gee-ann said,"am I doomed to fail?". I don't want to think that way but so far,it seems that way. Trying to please everyone made me lose a bit or maybe a large portion of myself and I don't think I can get it back. The fear that I had last year is still there and I don't know how I'm going to deal with it.

Treats

2007-06-11T14:15:00.000+08:00

wahahahahahahaha!!!!! Thank you my dear little sister for finding these Hare Hare Yukai treats..this post will mostly contain stuff from youtube so I'll stop here..I hope you enjoy them..^_^x

New baby

2007-06-11T13:30:00.001+08:00

weeeeeee!!! We have a new cat! Well we sort of adopted it since it came to our doorstep. I'm not exactly sure of the details but,from what I heard, they(the real owners) dropped kitty(will reveal the cat's name later) somewhere far from their house. In short para maligaw yung pusa. I think they got angry with him or something and then he came to us..ohh lucky him..hehehehe..

My cousin said that he was used to people carrying him and touching him. I was really happy.Now that he's part of the family, we needed to think of a name for him. My cousin suggested Tars because he looks like one with his big eyes. But I had another name in mind. It was the first name that popped in my head when I saw him and his huge eyes.

I name him Puss!
He looks like Puss in boots in Shrek. I'm not sure if you agree with me but when I first saw him when I woke up, he really did look like Puss in Boots. He looked up at me with those eyes and there it clicked that I shall name him Puss..hehehe..

Here's Puss in Boots from Shrek and Puss our new baby

More pictures of him

The power of the clone tool...hehehe..I removed some dirt near his eyes..

not ready..

2007-06-10T23:18:00.000+08:00

I don't exactly know why but I suddenly felt irritated. Wonder if it's about going back to school..hmmmnn...-.-?? Anyway, I not exactly sure if I'm ready to go back to school. One weird thing is that I want to go back to school because the new uniform amused me. I did say it was weird, didn't I? I hate what I'm feeling right now..it ruined my day..somehow I knew that after we laughed a lot, at the end of the day something would ruin it..oh well..-shrug-..

I am "sort of" excited on how the review will turn out..There's honestly no more room for my laziness this year..I need to study if I ever want to pass the entrance exams in U.P. and Ateneo..
-sigh-

ha! I thought of one possible way to cheer me up..Hare Hare Yukai!hehehehe...

2007-06-08T15:35:00.000+08:00

I'm Back!!!! After being gone for so long, I'm back..And just in time for my blog's birthday..weeee!!It's now official that I've been blogging for a year. Thank you DNAngel!!! For the new readers I'm thanking DNAngel because it was the layout I made. I wanted to have it coded after I made it so I asked Nica for help. She asked if it was for blogger or something else and that got me thinking "why not?". So I registered and my blog was created! I'm so happy I actually lasted a year.

I'm not really sure what to do for my blog's birthday. A new layout would be nice but I the current layout is pretty new so I'll cross that out. Kevin, then, suggested that I make a video. But unfortunately, there wasn't enough time and I'm currently lacking a few things. So I'm crossing that out as well. I'm running out of ideas but I may have something to put up on my blog's birthday.

(-points down-)Read on..^_^x

This has been in my head for days now and I'm actually watching it almost everyday. I even told my sister,"parang ang sarap sayawin.." then, "tara syaw tayo.."..wahahahaha...I honestly can't believe I said those things. I'm not the type of person that dances. The only times I danced were during Grade 6 and the batch dance for the prom(oh and during P.E. too. Only because we needed to dance.). That's pretty much it. Ang kulit kasi ng sayaw..wahaha..(even though I said those things, I doubt that I'd dance Hare Hare Yukai..specially the ending part..)I want to thank Geryl for introducing me to Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu.^_^x I'll miss you..

I'm 'It'..

2007-05-11T14:20:00.000+08:00

I got tagged by Kevin..It's just like I said,it's just like the one in DA..Though I haven't answered it yet..hehe..

The rules of the game is as following: The 1st player starts off by doing an journal entry on him or herself. The topic shall feature 6 weird habits/things about oneself. After you are done listing the six weird things about yourself, you must pick the next six people to be tagged, and you must leave a comment on their blog saying you've been tagged and tell them to read this.

oh well,I'm not sure if these are weird but..

1.Even though I feel sleepy at night and I'm already in bed, I find it hard to sleep immediately. It would usually take me hours before I fall asleep.

2.Tons and I mean tons of ideas come rushing in my brain at night. I would usually get an idea for a drawing or some events that I could add to my fanfics. I even had an idea for an entry in Animax's contest. But then I tend to forget my ideas in the morning.

3.Connected to number 2,I would get a strong inspiration to draw or write at night when all the lights are out and I'm the only one awake.

4.I join fanlistings based on the icons they display on the 'codes' section. If like 'em I join. But of course the anime and which anime character is also a big factor for choosing to join.

5.Every year, I hate carrying my heavy bag while walking to school and coming home from it but I can't seem to remove or leave some things at home. I would look inside to see what I can leave and just end up leaving some pens which no longer have any ink.(note: I leave all my books and notebooks in my locker not unless we have a test or homework. What's inside my bag other than my books,don't ask..)

6. I rarely go out with my family to the mall. I happily go along with them if the mall they're going to has Comic Alley in it.

There..that actually made me think..glad that's done..let's see..I tag..

This is one of the things boredom does to you. Aside from being bored, I went on a quiz spree to get my mind of being depressed. The results really amused me. All of it was very true about myself. Lack of sleep and ice coffee made by my sister are things that are dangerous to me. One time, me and my younger sister had to sleep together because the fan was so noisy. I barely slept that night. The next day I was laughing non stop. I laughed so much even though my family's jokes weren't even that funny. Then later on I'd just suddenly laugh. I already thought I was crazy. Coffee on the other hand, makes me hyper and very cheerful. I tend to annoy my siblings. When I took one test I was glad to see that I was somehow stable...^_^x

Maricris is gone

2007-05-02T13:45:00.000+08:00

Wahahaha...yes that's right..she's gone..though I'm sure you already know that..this post is just way too late..This one is a bit up to date:Dionne, Saicy and Wendy are nominated..wahihi..My classmates might be surprised that I'm actually watching PBB Season 2(Pinoy Big Brother). I'm actually surprised myself. I've never been this excited about it. At night I can't wait for it. I find myself constantly looking at the clock waiting for the clock to strike 10:20(but recently its been 10:30). From what I've seen, this season is very fun and they seem close to each other as well. This season actually got me interested not like the previous ones. Another reason that I watch the show is my older sister. She's the one who really watches PBB. She's off to work now. Its amazing how I feel so much closer to her now(wahihi..ate miss kita..).

Happy People

2007-04-19T17:24:00.000+08:00

Page came over for a sleepover at our house the other night and it was great. The fun began after we prayed the rosary. All the girls went upstairs including my mom, my older sister and my cousin(my dad and my brother were left downstairs). At around 11 or so, my cousin opened the aircon(just for that night). When it got cold and after watching PBB, we cuddled and had "girl talk". I wish I had the chance to take pictures but people were leaning on me so I couldn't stand up. We were so noisy laughing and talking. Goodness! Ice coffee in the afternoon really had an effect on me and my older sister. We were so hyper and full of energy. Even after the lights were out my older sister climbed over to my bed to listen to me and Page talking. Page and I slept at around past 2 in the morning or something. My older sister slept later because she finished the book Victoria and the Rogue using only the light from the tv.

New Layout

2007-04-01T11:35:00.000+08:00

Weeeeee... I have a new layout. Took me long enough. I was actually planning on a Suikoden III layout but I was too lazy to get the cd I burned which had the pictures. Plus I'm totally crazy bout Gundam Wing right now. I want to thank Nica again, she's been very helpful to me with the layouts I made. I had problems with this layout(you can ask Nica. We took a long time in fixing this). I finally figured out how it would repeat a bit smoothly and now here it is. I've edited this layout hundreds of times before this. I really like the first one I made but it wouldn't repeat nicely so, yeah, I just went with this one.

Productive?

2007-03-31T13:32:00.000+08:00

I never expected my summer to be this productive(if you ever consider watching tv productive). I honestly thought my summer would be boring but its actually turning for the better. I noticed I've become a bit more active in the anime community. I'm planning on going to an anime convention with Page tomorrow(take note of the word 'planning'). And on June I'm hoping to go with her and her sibling in a cosplay. It'll be my fist and if i manage to save enough money in time, I'm going to come along as a shinigami like them. I'm really excited and I'm doing everything I could not to spend any money. This summer I managed to get my hands on a few episode of BLEACH and the entire series of Gundam Wing(not to worry my savings are safe..).I'm actually already starting on the Gundam Wing marathon. I guess it would've been better if I bought cd's of series before rather than pins..hehe..I've never taken my love for anime this far. I guess I still have a lot to learn.

Spectrobe

2007-03-17T14:18:00.000+08:00

I have to thank my younger sister for finding out about this one. She was playing games in the Disney channel website for Asia. I wanted to play a game in Hannah Montana but then the other Disney channel website,the one in the US) was gone. Well not exactly gone,just renovated I guess. I was looking for games when I found something there. I saw "Spectrobe" on the side bar. I checked it out. I found out that it was a game for Nintendo DS. I checked out the trailer and got interested in it. I checked out the webisodes there.

Well,to me, it was like mixed Pokemon, Digimon and those kind only it was in a futuristic setting. It's not the storyline that got me interested. To tell you the truth I can't really explain what I feel about it. I only liked the fact that its futuristic and the gadgets and spaceships and stuff looked nice and well,cool in a way. I guess I have a thing for futuristic stuff or at least things related to it. Too bad the girl had pink hair.-sigh- I have a few issues with "some",not all, pink haired girls.

Friends...really,what does that word mean? looking it up in a dictionary, it says that it's a person whom one knows well and is fond of; an ALLY, SUPPORTER, OR SYMPATHIZER.Sounds so nice doesn't it? Sounds so nice to think that you have an ALLY, a SUPPORTER, a SYMPATHIZER. It doesn't really sound so good to me now.

I wonder how a world would be like to have no friends. Maybe it's nice since you won't get hurt. The downside, you'll be lonely. But what's the difference really? When you have friends you can't really trust them exactly can you? Happy moments seem to be only a distant memory and it seems that its all shattered when you come realize this one thing. In the end the feeling is just the same,you'll still feel lonely. Maybe it's just me, its what I think. Maybe I need to learn from this and take it as a challenge instead,just as what my mom advised me.

I'm not really sure what to do now. Maybe just lay low for now and wait for this feeling to pass.

We just recently found out about a cute little puppy. Me and my cousin pass by a house on our way to school and my mom and my cousin knows the owner. The owner let us walk the puppy to school. Its so cute and little..Ohh...so adorable...if I get the chance to take its picture, I'll post it up here..and tonight I got to walk it again...

I sound like a child..sorry for that..it's honestly my first time to walk a dog and a cute one at that..^_^x

too tired..

2007-01-22T21:22:00.000+08:00

3rd quarter is OVER!! Which means TWO things: a.)another 3rd Quarter PTC(oh pure joy..-sigh-) and b.)more work...

3rd quarter was the shortest quarter but also,well, hard. It seemed easy since there were less topics to study but with all the teachers wanting to finish all the topics before the Christmas break was hard. 3rd quarter passed by really quickly and here we are now waiting for us to meet our maker. This Friday will be our PTC(oh joy no classes)..Yeah, no classes but then our parents...oh boy...If i could only stay asleep for that whole day or find other plans to escape...Our teachers said many went down and it really wasn't a surprise..its as if the topics, all just flew by.

the end of the 3rd quarter means that 4th Quarter starts. The very important quarter of the whole school year. This time it'll be 40% not 30% like the last 3 quarters. This means we really need to study to make up for the grades we lost last quarter. This also means more activities. This coming February alone is too much. Dramafest, Foundation Day, JS Prom, Math and Science week. To add to those, we still have quizzes, long tests, projects, homeworks, etc. Mannn...I guess it's no surprise that I sleep most of the time on weekends. I barely go online anymore. I usually just stay in bed. I've become too lazy. I really need to make up this quarter. hopefully I'll really do better this time.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

2006-12-27T22:32:00.000+08:00

Kurisumasu Omedetou!! Its been sooooo long since I wrote in my blog. This Christmas is all right..I was full that I can say for sure..Even though the food wasn't that much I ate until I couldn't eat anymore. Not many gifts but wonderful all the same. A big change this Christmas. I wore a dress!!! yes I wore a dress to the Mass. But we stayed outside since there were a lot of people inside. And thankfully it was dark so not many recognized me. Also I have more pictures this year that last year. I would like to post it here but my hair was just...bleh....hehe... All in all it was a great Christmas.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Even though its Christmas we still had to think about school. We had to do this take home project in Physics. One of the activities was to go to Enchanted Kingdom to get somethings to put in the data tables. The topic is Angular and Periodic motion. At first I was considering it but in the end I backed out. Man I'm so dumb when it comes to Physics. So I decided to go for the activity called Obramaestra. I have to draw a picture or an abstract art consisting of up and down motion, curves or circles. This will be less expensive and a lot easier too.

Photoshop LIVES!!!!

2006-12-15T20:15:00.000+08:00

yay!!! I finally got Photoshop installed again..with the help of my father..as soon as I got the time, I immediately opened it and worked on a new Christmas sig and avatar for the forums I go to..I don't know if there are added features...I haven't explored it that much but i'm just really glad to have it back..I have to thank my friend Julian for this,too..and Raymond for also helping me with the installation..

for other news..Christmas vacation is coming!!!our exams aren't done yet though..we still have Sci.res. and Gen.math on Monday..but we're not quiet homeward bound yet..regular classes follow the next day and on Wednesday is out Christmas party..then,we're homeward bound...I really can't wait..
-----------------------------------
Oh what's this?I look at my tagboard and see my sister tag...huuwaaatttt!!!she found my blog...ohh noo...!!!hehehe...it's ok...as long as she didn't tell my brother..(you didn't tell did you?..oh please say no..)..he still needs to guess it..it wouldn't be fun anymore if he just asked my sister..^_^x I'd be happy to make one for you,sis...
------------------------------------
didn't really like the new profile in friendster...its blocking my background picture!!because of that people can't see my beloved Sasuke..wahehe...I mean there is a reason why people put backgrounds in their profiles...it's to add design and let people see it..-sigh- I just really hate it..

Photoshop...

2006-11-29T20:57:00.000+08:00

waaahhh..I miss photoshop so much...!! It's amazing that I've survived this long without it..-sigh-i guess I was just really excited about installing CS2..we ended up having problems and now I have to wait for my brother to come home with out old one so we can install that again...waahh...-sigh-I guess I can think Windows Movie maker for keeping me company..I made about one AMV just to kill time...it's a bit random but I guess it's ok..I haven't uploaded it yet though...i just hope when my brother comes home tomorrow he has the photoshop with him...

Short,ne? I haven't uploaded the behind the scenes pictures of us working hard on our cheering props...internet is slow..-_-;

I guess that'll do it for now..i just don't want my blog to die again...ahehehe...

Super Mario!!!!!

2006-11-12T14:42:00.000+08:00

This was an awesome find! I have to thank my brother for this one. He was looking at blog last night...No wait it was actually early this morning...and I mean early...about 1 in the morning...I went down to go to the bathroom after having a marathon on anime shows, Paradise Kiss and Fushigi Yugi - Eikoden at animax. I continued to watch Card Captor Sakura The movie : The Sealed Card on the cd and once it was done, I went down again. When I did my brother was playing this and I immediately knew what it was. It wasn't loaded completely so I decided to wait for it,take a little nap on the sofa and then watch again. But it was taking too long so I decided to go up but my brother told me to say and watch it, what was done at least. So I did. And man it was worth it. I can't really describe our reactions after hearing the rest of it. It was so awesome!!! You must be wondering by no what the heck am I talking about? Well, you'll just have to watch...

After watching or while your watching, you'll know what the songs are. I don't know all of it but I know some. I've had my fair share of playing Mario. I didn't go far though. But it was enough to know the songs.

Carzy!!!

2006-11-05T16:04:00.000+08:00

Oh no!...sembreak is over!! I am now savoring the last moments of freedom...I don't want to go back yet...It'll be a ton of work again since we'll be starting the practice for the December stage play. The good new we are excused from our classes(woohoo!!). But we'll have to do make-ups for what we missed in class(oh boy..).

I'll have to say goodbye to video games(waaaahhh!!!!). And just when I started to go crazy about Suikoden III again. I started to play again and man was I hooked to it(nothing like when i played it before...). I downloaded it's opening song,Transcending Love. I love the animation and the music. I'm trying to get my hands on the video but I just can't find any(I'll have to work harder...). I find myself going to youtube every time I had the chance to go online and look for it's opening video as well as Suikogaiden and Suikoden II. I can't stop viewing them. I even started to think of a story based on Suikoden III. I just finished a character in her 3 different outfits(yeah I'm working on that..). I'll have to brainstorm a lot on this. Like I said, I'm CRAZY!!

Now I have to say goodbye to it along with Naruto Narutimet Hero 3 and Sims2. I never really got the chance to use the computer a lot so there isn't mush that I'll miss about it(aheheh...),except maybe using adobe photoshop..^_^x

-sigh- by the way...here are the graphics I made out of the pictures I got of the characters in Suikoden III. I have an avatar and a signature. I use this in the anime forums I go to..
Signature:(just click it to see it in full size..)

Avatar:

This is the opening of Suikoden III:

This is the opening of Suikoden 2(I think...hehehe...)
Another amazing animation..It makes want to play it but I'm having a hard time finding it..hmnn...anyway..I got a jackpot finding this. So far,for me, this is the best quality I've seen..a bit dark but still wonderful..^_^x

GO JUNIORS!!!!!

2006-10-25T19:43:00.000+08:00

Phew! Today was worth it.. Every grueling day of practice for the cheering competition paid off. It was great.

We were asked to be early. We needed to be in school at 6:00 am. Early,yeah I know, but there were a lot of preparations to be done for the competition(at least thats what it said in the text message...hehehe..). We were there,though some were still late. We started to prepare. The cheerdancers were putting on make-up and tying their hairs up to a pony tail. The pep squad were putting on paint on their palms and putting "J" on their cheeks. The others made small banners and gave it to the lower levels(elementary). Before we went down for the very short parade, Sir came in to give us a few words. After that, we assembled in the field and followed the rest of the students into the new covered court. We sat on the left side nearest to the stage. We had the Opening Ceremony, a few words from our Principal, The Oath of Sportsmanship(is that right?dunno what they call it...ahehehe..)and it was on to the show.

I sat back and watched the other years perform and honestly I was nervous. I wasn't a cheerleader or a member of the pep squad but I was in charge of ther music. One slip and everything would be ruined. What made it worse was that from the sound system booth I couldn't see them since it was facing the stage not out to the court where they would be performing. So I told them to cheer loud so I would be able to hear from the inside.

First up was the freshmen. They were alright except it didn't give that much impact,for me that is. Though for freshmen, they were good. Next up was the sophomores. It was nice because I was itching to see what they created since they only usually practice a part of their routine. There was supposed to be an intermission number from the Indak club(dance club..) but they were having some problem with their music. They couldn't find the music in the i-Pod shuffle and so they said that they would just perform after the competition. So there... We were up next,the moment of truth. I placed the cd in and waited for the cue. Once I got the cue to start, I played the music and stepped out of the booth to watch. I couldn't help myself, I wanted to see how everything looked. Everything was going well so far. From the stage it looked great. The moving pyramid and the hanging pyramid was done successfully and there wasn't any major mistakes made. The pep squad gave it all their best to cheer and the cheerdancers gave it all they got with the dances and chain reactions. All went well up to the last pose and the exit. It felt great after that. Next up was the seniors. Their entrance was great. I really liked it entering in togas and then removing them. They had great steps and nice cheers. Though to be honest, it seemed like something was missing and I didn't quite get their exit. But all in all I enjoyed watching them.

The competition was over and the judges were deciding the winner. The Indak club came back but still had trouble with the music. But still even though the music was really messed up, they still danced. After the Indak club, it was time for the awarding. We were all nervous and really couldn't wait to know who the winner was. Every year gave it all their best and everyone did great. The first award was best in costume which was awarded to us. It shocked me since I thought the freshmen would win it. Next was the first runner up which was the freshmen. We clapped and they cheered. The 2nd runner up was the seniors. I was,again, shocked. I never thought that they would be the 2nd runner up. The sophomores and us, the juniors were left. We had our hands with confetti(cut pieces of magazine..) preparing to throw it around at whoever the winner would turn out. Finally they called the sophomores as the 1st runner up and then and there we shouted and cheered and threw the confettin making a big mess. But hey we won we had the right to celebrate right? It was great! Everything we worked hard for, every sermon or lecture we got for not doing it right, some things that happened which wasn't that good, paid off in the end. We Won! The Champions in the Cheering competition. Man it felt good.
Here are some pictures from the competition. There are supposed to be more but they're blurred.. I'll do a behind the scenes post next along with pictures...^_^x
This is the start of our routine..

Meet the squad(part of them..) and the men in black at the back.. I don't have any decent pic of the male cheer dancers..sorry...

This is the ending where they posed...the cheer dancers, I mean..

These two are when we won...don't expect to see me in here since I was cut off...haha..^_^x

2006-09-16T14:07:00.000+08:00

gah! it's been so long...I finally have time in my hands to post. I know it's been so long since I wrote and that what I'm going to write happened ages ago but what the heck it wouldn't hurt to write about it...

I've been a member in this anime forum ever since it was on it's first server(except when it was only a gellery). I've always wanted to at least join it's "arts and graphics team" or at least it's "doujin force". Time passed,as they changed servers I still registered(possibly a hardcore member)even if my previous posts were gone and that we would have to start all over again. I loved it there meeting new friends and such. Through all those times I never had the courage to ask if I could join either of the team. This summer I told myself to go on and ask since my fan art thread was going well but what kept me from asking was that whether I would be able to handle i when school starts. Being a high school student is no joke specially when your a junior. This kept on echoing in my head. Everytime that I would have the courage to ask I would suddenly back down but then,maybe, a miracle happened(XD)... I checked my private messages and there in my inbox was a message from the doujin force asking if I was interested in joining. My heart skipped when I read it. Of course I was interested. I agreed and asked for some samples. At first he asked for a pragraph but then I told him that I was going to enter as an artist. So he went to my thread to check it out. I waited anxiously for his reply. I kept on refreshing the page and then there it was. The title of the message itself made me jump for joy even if i didn't read it yet. The title already said it all. I was ACCEPTED! Boy! I was happy. I couldn't wait to start or participate. I tried to catch up read all of the threads in the doujin force. At first I couldn't understand but I soon calmed down. That's pretty much what happened. I just hope I can keep up with this as well as school.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Now I have that done. i'll get back to the things that happened recently. Well we had a ton of long tests but thankfully we managed to get by them. Right now,we're all looking forward to our field trip..err...i mean our educational outbound trip( or was it tour?). This'll be something really new since we'll be going up a mountain.. a part of it at least. STill, it'll be high and it'll be really exciting. ^_^x

We have a new,but temporary, name. from pahalajmak to grandtomotwintwi2wynnessesshobeechoocuppy...very long I know...but it's only temporary...so far it's not really only the seven of us but most of the class joined as well...it's history will follow. Another post maybe..and it will be all about how pahalajmak started.

Not very long but I hope this will be fine for now.. ^^

New Found Craving...

2006-08-21T15:21:00.000+08:00

Long weekend...Yay! this week was sssooooo tiring...so many activities...I managed to get by, somehow. Even though I was really tired there were a lot of laugh trips. I don't think I'll do a great job in describing that moment so I'll move on to the weekend.

My weekend was fun. I got to watch Initial D the movie with my brother at home while my mom and everyone else at home were upstairs watching My Girl. It was really cool(for me it was). The drifting and all those things. That's pretty much one of the things my siblings and I agree on. The next day I asked my uncle to watch it. It was kinda like he had no choice 'cause I was going to watch it again so might as well watch it with me..^_^x I watched it again but the excitement during the races were still there just like when I watch the series(some of it..^^). The next night it was my sister and father who watched. They were amused just like me and my brother. I could hear their comments from downstairs. Now my brother took the DVD with him. I won't be able to watch it again(not this week at least). :(

While I'm in the topic of my brother, I want to thank him for almost killing of laughter a while ago(if your reading this I'm only joking...and congratulations for finally finding out my blog..^_^x). It pretty much all started when my sister was upstairs watching High School Musical. The last number came up, We're all in this together, and just couldn't help but dance. My brother saw the whole thing since he wasn't far from her even though she was dancing in the corner. That topic was carried down to lunch. Thankfully my brother waited for me to finish eating. After talking about my sister's dancing he danced as well. I couldn't help but laugh really hard. I could barely breathe, you couldn't even hear anything from me. He stopped and I told myself;"thank God", but no he had to do it again and now with his legs. That really hit the spot. I laughed nonstop. I guess you could say it was scary since I wasn't making any sound. I really couldn't breathe but I couldn't stop laughing. My laughter died down and I caught my breath. I recovered from the traumatizing event and went my merry way. Now all is well since I've found a new craving...

Yes a new craving..I recently found out about Ouran High School Host Club(bit behind on this). I've heard about this before in other forums but it didn't bother me that much to actually make me look into it. But then I joined a roleplay which was the anime so I did my research. Thankfully I found a site that had episode of it so I downloaded it. I thought it was manga scans so I was puzzled why it took so long to download. When I extracted the zip, I found out it was an episode. I watched it and was immediately hooked to it. I downloaded the other episodes and loved it more. Right now I'm downloading the 5th episode. I'm looking for pictures of the anime so I could make wallpapers, sigs, avatars, etc. I'm really looking forawrd to the future episode and I'm really excited to watch. I think I'll stop here and go for another marathon. ^_^x

FREEEE!!!!

2006-08-11T13:24:00.000+08:00

Exams are finally over!!! Free at last!!! though I don't think I did well in my exam..-sigh- this week was soooo tiring...to add to that we'll have to pass a project by Monday.. the heck?! aren't we supposed to rest by friday and on the weeked? I thought for once,"Yes, finally free time and nothing to do on the weekends.."; but no...there was a post placed up on the board saying about our project...waaaaahhhh!!!!!!! no I have to keep working..PLUS! I have to present my monologue again by Wednesday..I guess it was a good idea if I blew my presentation that way I would just be realxing..hehe...

Last week was something...I was really depressed.. I didn't expect to feel that down last Friday.. We held a farewell party for our classmate who was going to leave for Japan. It was really a memorable moment. It was like going on a recollection, open forum and all. The time came for goodbyes and for us to give our messages for him. And wow...tears started to fall as we gave our messages..the girls cried a lot and I mean a lot..I look awful in my picture with him because of my red eyes and nose. It was really hard for us..even though he's been only with us for about 5 years, he's been a part of our family and has played a huge role in it. Our class, for me, was different from the others because we've been together since elemntary and we're really bonded now. Goodbyes are always hard specially for me since I'm such a cry baby and a sentimental person. I had a picture with him and had a goodbye hug. honestly, it felt good. I've never expereinced being hugged by a guy before so it did feel good. I made the most out of it since it would be last time I'll be seeing him for a very long time. I was really stupid then that I accidentally threw his note.^^ I'll definitely miss himsince I've grown quite fond of him.^_^x (if your reading this, well sorry about the note..hehe..) The class of III-Einstein will greatly miss you!!!Man our eyes are so red...^_^x

Cramming

2006-08-02T20:56:00.000+08:00

I baaaaacckkk!!!!! It's been so long..How i've missed the computer..^^ A new post..Yay! let me see...school again..I'll take about tha vacation later..(your going to have to wait kevin..) Just by reading my title it's obvious that I'll ba talking about school and my cramming(I'm such a bad student..XD). Like what Kevin said in his blog,we were asked to read Lord of the Flies. We agreed on 65 pages per day but sadly I was too tired to read on Friday. so it was moved and I didn't finish the 95 1/2 pages but I did read a tiny bit..(pasaway talaga ako..)and now Sunday came. We woke up early to go to church and after that went straight to Festival mall. Now, being a good student, I brought along with me my book and read while we ate breakfast at KFC and while I was waiting for my parents to finish some things. It still wasn't enough. I only read I think up to the 4th chapter. I'm a really slow reader but if I like the story and I'm really interested in it I can finish it easily. I still haven't finished reading it and so far I'm able to answer the questions Ms. Zeta gave us for our book report(Ms. Zeta, if your reading this, sorry that I've been lazy..^^). Though I don't think I'll survive on Friday,long test for the book. I have to finish it before then so I won't fail. i really don't want to get a Mid-quarter status report.

Another thing that I'm cramming for is for our "monologo" in Filipino. Sir gave it to us early so we could prepare but I really couldn't think of any role that I might play. The week of presentation came. I was taking a bath when suddenly it hit me. I suddenly thought of a role I could play. It was a good thing I was scheduled on Friday. I managed to think of a role in time but the problem now is the execution. Honestly, I'm really not good when it comes to acting. I don't mind it sometimes as long as i'm with other people but this one I'll have to be alone. i'll be having extras to help me but I'll be doing a part of it alone. waaahhh... I'm getting nervous already. I just hope I can pull it off when it's my turn.

Oh, I almost forgot. I have a new skin. I found this at BlogSkins.com. Since my layout hasn't been coded yet, I'll have to stick to this for now.

Weather forecast

2006-07-13T16:46:00.000+08:00

It's been rainig pretty hard these days. The wind here are really strong you could hear it whistling. Yesterday the classes were cut and not long when I got home, it started to pour down hard again. The sky was really dark. On top of that I was stressed out on our Chemistry project that was supposedly due today(Thursday). Thankfully there were no classes so we had a bit more time to prepare.

-sigh- It was tring and I slept around 1:45am(I think) But one thing made me laugh when we went back to school. I remembered what happened on Wednesday(was it on Wednesday Kevin?). hehehe...It was Computer time and sir wasn't there. Sir Foman and Ms. Zeta substituted for him on our 2 periods. We barely had anything to do except answer 2 pages in our book then after that it was free time. It was really nice. I was able to talk to Athalia about the fan fic I was writing and she did the same for hers(we're both writing stories. And like me she also has previous stories that aren't done yet...hehehehehe..her stories are good..most likely better than mine..^^). I was also able to talk to Justine(a great artist..trust me on this...she's just amazing when it comes to arts...)about the random dragon I was drawing. I got a few pointers from her on how to draw it correctly and how to name a dragon nicely or how to make it look nice. I had a great time though it was short. (here it is Kev...^_^x..) It was after that. The others were roaming around the room and some where goign outside to go to the Water Closet( :D ..in other words...Rest Room..). Kevin suddenly grabbed his wallet and went for the door. Kent was standing by the door and Kevin said, "Let's go...". Then I thought, "where is he going? we still have Physics before lunch.." ..I told him that and he realized that he made a mistake. I started to laugh hard and he did the same. Athalia asked why we were laughing and I told her what happened and she laughed as well. It might not sound funny when I described it but boy was it funny then...^^
Here it is Kevin...I finally wrote about what happened.^_^x

The weather forecast continues for what happened for the past days in school.
Friday came and boy was it an experience! The very first subject and most of us cried. Yep! We cried. And we were graded for it. no, it's not theatre or anything it was an activity. It was Filipino and we had our quiz. Sir asked us to close our eyes and talk to someone,group of people,parents, relatives(dead or alive),or God. We can say anything from sheer happiness to deep, possibly, deadly anger. So it started. The person he was going to tap will speak. He won't say when to stop but when you hear another voice, that's whe you'll stop. I had my turn. After that most of the girls eyes where red. It was a nice activity. It felt nice to cry since I haven't cried for sometime now.^^ After that we had English then Chemistry..We prepared our table and the juice and salad. It went well,somehow. While we were doing that we had our Medical Dental check-up. One bad news is that I now have 20/25 vision. But other than that I'm fine. Trigonometry came up and Sir Foman played Scwabble(did I spell it right?) with the boys, while we,the girls, played cops and robbers using paper. Before Sir Foman left we had Kodak moments posing a few times. He told us to do a few poses and we did. It was really fun. I have so much to tell but now my brother is about to leave me behind and sleep so that'll be all for now. I'll try to write agian,soon...

-_-;;

2006-07-02T15:49:00.000+08:00

WOW! So tiring....I'm so glad to be able to use the computer again..I couldn't believe it myself. I survived the whole week without ever using the computer. With only a day of not using the computer I'd already be going crazy because of worry that I might be so left behind in the rpg's I joined in the forums I go to. ehehe...But all in all it was a fun week,not to mention a ton of laughter and still a ton of homework.

I was finally able to read the manga of Spiral and I'm on the 4th chapter now. Yes,I only read the manga now even though I knew about it long ago. I even included their names in our computer project in making a somewhat class record in excel and my student were anime characters.(hehehe...) Now that I read it, I'm hooked to ti and I can't seem to stop reading it. Dum Dum Dum...!!!!I have to stop reading soon or I be able to do my homework and study for tomorrow...waahhh...(I'm so bad.....) 3rd year life is tough but fun at the same time. I'm starting to adjust to it little by little. I think I'll stop here. My head is empty right now and I can't wait to get back reading the manga.^_^x

Gambatte!

wwwaaaaahhhh!!!! 3rd Year Highschool is hard!!! Not a single day for rest...everyday there's homework..if not written homework, we have to study. I'm pretty much having a hard time adjusting and I feel so left behind. -sigh- I don't know if I'll be able to survive this year,but hopefully I will. Everyone's gotten so good and sometimes I feel so small. My mother said I've changed for the better but I don't feel like I have. To me, I'm still the same.

I told myslef I'll try harder this year. The trip to Cebu during the vacation was worth it. I had fun plus I found inspiration there. We visited relatives and though it was tiring, it was great. When we visited a relative, he started to tell how my mom was lucky to have bright kids compared to the kids of his children. I told myself,"I doubt that I'm bright." Compared to my brother,sister and younger sister's achievements, I'm not even close. They always brought home medals and gave our famliy a nice look. But when it came to me,I took home none. I only got a medal during 1st year highschool and that was only by chance. But inspite of all that when I heard what he said, it gave me motivation to try harder. I told myself that if that was what he expected of my mom's children, then I'll try to live up to it. It won't be easy but I'll try my best. I don't want to disappoint him and the others who expect things from me specially my parents. I won't compare myself to my siblings anymore but I'll think of them as inspiration and motivation. If they were able to do it then I can too. I am after all a daughter of a wonderful mother and father and a sister of intelligent siblings.(hehehe...^_^x) Gambatte!

going straight; stressed out...-_-;

Monday we went to Fresh hair. I was only supposed to get a haircut but then when we got there they starightened my hair. I couldn't argue since it was what my mother and older sister wanted. It turned out ok though it hurt when they applied the medicine(?) to starighten my hair. I found out when I got home that,I think, my scalp had an irritation or burn. It's ok now since we've been putting medicine on it and it doesn't hurt so much anymore.

Classes started this Tuesday. We met our new advisor and man was it scary. He looked so strict. We had our orientation in the morning then had the regular schedule in the afternoon meeting our subject teachers. The new teachers were pretty scary,honestly they really were. There were a lot of unexpected things like memorizing on the first day of classes. The moment I got home and got changed and I immediately went to my bed and slept. The next day I woke up and I wasn't feeling that well. I felt like I was going to barf but when I go to the bathroom nothing happens plus I lose my appetite. I was told that it was stress. Pretty unusual, huh? Being stressed out already after the first day of classes. I wasn't alone. Some of my classmates were going through the same thing.
We got to know our new teachers better and we were able to meet our other subject teachers. It was ok but then we were given tons of homework.
Yesterday was nice. We laughed a lot. The new teachers were fine and we started to like them(some of us at least). But again,homework. Tons and tons of homework. We had to do so much plus memorize the History of Trigonometry that our teacher discussed. It was tough and we did memorize it only to find out today that the recitation was moved.-sigh- Up to now we still have homework. The thing that was nice about today was that our Social Studies teacher didn't discuss any lesson today,only a quiz about countries and it's capitals in Europe and South America plus current events and our lessons last school year(yes,last school year). After the quiz we just sat there and talked. We also had fre time in our last subject and just took home the questions we were supposed to answer as homework. This week has been nothing but work. Not a single day was given to us to rest. I never thought being in 3rd year highschool was this tough. I'll need a lot of time to adjust. But then even though this week was tough and tiring, it was ok since we still had time to laugh.

Just around the corner...

-sigh- School is just around the corner and I'm not ready to leave summer behind yet..I do miss school a bit and I feel a bit excited for just a few seconds when I see pictures of us in the classroom or stolen shots of my classmates. But then homeworks,projects,seatworks and presentations come to my mind. School means we'll have to go back to work again...And I might have to say goodbye to the computer for a while. My mother told me to concentrate more on my studies now since I wasn't that serious before..But my grades were ok. I managed to keep my position as Top 4. I'm not boasting or anything it's just hard when people expect a lot from you. And I just hate the pressure..But I have to live with it...-sigh- :(

I haven't heard many good news about the new school year except maybe that our class is still intact. Other than that it's bad news.. I mean new teachers and classmates plus some of our old classmates were transfered to the other section. I even heard our new adviser is a guy and he's strict. Also a new math teacher. Ms. Sonia won't be teaching us anymore although she still teaches there,just maybe in the lower level. I'll admit I will miss her even though she's scary sometimes. And Ms. May,I heard, is gone too..-sigh- I just hope none of them are true...well maybe, at least, I hope most of them aren't true..I guess we'll just have too see on Tuesday. I am escited about one thing though...seeing my friends again...I mean who isn't?

I am totally new to this so I hope I'm doing this right..
I always wondered about blogs and always thought how it would be to have one. So here I am..
At least now I have other things to do when I use the computer other than forums and chatting..
Not much for a first post,huh? I think I'll stop here for now...I'll most likely post a lot when school starts..
