So what's up? Well, considering the fact that we don't have classes--again--and our quizzes were postponed and we only have 2 final exams next week and LA work's a bit delayed for next term, call me free!!! For now, at least. With that, I had a few memorable hours with my newly-fixed sewing machine. Welcome to my new hobby! It pretty much goes hand in hand with t-shirt printing, so it's all the more addicting. I'll post pictures next time. ^_^

Not a passenger

Have you been to batch reunions? We went to my dad's civil engineers' reunion yesterday and although I didn't know anyone and there really wasn't much to do, watching old friends catching up with each others' lives was actually quite fun...and scary.

Years from now, it's us who'll be having our own reunions. What stories will I be telling? Where have I traveled? Will I actually go to the reunion or be too embarrassed to show up if I'm not successful enough by that time? Or maybe, those are not the questions that would matter. Will I have a good life?

Who ever thought French profs can make you reminisce about high school? During French class earlier, after answering her correctly, Madame Berdardino asked me:

B: Did you ever take up French before?
Proud Me: Yes, in high school.
B: I see..
(then after hearing someone else ask me if I was from Zobel)
B: Ah you're from Zobel? Do you know Madame Nenette Brenner?
M: Oh my God, you know her?!

I guess that's how acquainted French-speaking Pinays are.

_ _ _

"So many things to do, so little time." The overused words cannot be more apt to how I'm feeling now. I want to try out so many things--more than my tired body can handle. Most of the days since I'm-not-sure-when, I have my thoughts on boxing. Or gloveless punching. Or anything similar to jabbing onto something hard. Like a wall. Yes, a concrete wall.

And that's how I suddenly forgot about trying out new things. 'Coz here's another side of it.

Two days ago, quite insanely, I hit the wall and got a bad bruise on my knuckles. I forgot why I did, but most of the time that I feel like hurting my hand, it's because I'm keeping myself from saying something that'd disturb my peaceful conversations with people.

Okay, enough of drama. Je me sens fatigue. A bientot.. (I'm tired. See you soon..)

on reco letters and my not-so-good history

2007-07-04T18:43:00.000+08:00

i should be writing my brother a recollection letter now, but something came up. as i was looking for a nice envelope to use, i saw and read through past reco letters from my classmates in zobel. grade school until high. and here is one particular letter that bothered me:

Dear Rachel,
Hapi Reco...kung pwede lang talaga, pls. TAMA NA. Minsan lang talaga naiisip ko, bakit lang ako nandito sa mundo e kung mga tao sa paligid ko thinks I'm a big joke? Last year, last, last year...Paulit ulit na lang! Kung pwede lang, kasi, feel ko di na ko nabubuhay ng maayos kasi pinagtatawanan na rin ako...Pero, sometimes, nafoforgive na kita. Like nung ginawa nyo nung Saturday. But it hurts me pag inuulit ulit kasi nararamdaman ko talaga na joke lang talaga ako. So pls. Please. Stop. Please lang talaga. I still consider you as a friend. Nalaman ko na pwede pala kita maging friend nung 1st Quarter. So alam ko, you could be a friend. Thank you. At least, na OK pa tayo mag-usap. Happy Reco and God Bless...

there. i'd rather not write who it's from. this one's from grade school days.. and.. well.. was i that mean?! shoot.

i've forever been a small girl. and i once was a small girl and a bully at the same time, but not that i regret it 100%. frankly, it's a bit of a relief to know that i wasn't at the losing end. still, it's not something to be proud of. and for that, i am truly sorry.. so to you: i hope you could read this, that is, if you still remember what you wrote me.

while i'm at it

2007-06-23T17:46:00.000+08:00

is it me, or has blogging become so tiring? well, considering the fact that all the other bloggers are still religiously updating theirs, yeah, i guess it's just me and my love for going all horizontal lately. i just want to get as much rest as i could these days, thanks to the stressful Student Council life. anyhow, to more or less sum up what i've been up to these past few weeks...

19th Young Hoteliers' Exposition. here's to my very responsible and passionate fafichef! err, i'm so proud a momma.

i just got home from my second visit to World Trade Center where they're holding the YHE events with Mafbex and am really stuffed with all the food for free tasting! *drool*

Green & White. 5 more terms and we are graduating..and we should, so we better make it good. speaking of, we(most of my friends) already worked on our Green & White requirements for the yearbook. yep, as early as now. and who best to do my 80-words-max write up than sam? here's what she did (i edited some parts and included elcid's contribution):

From afar, one sees a girl giving a myriad of facial expressions coupled with similarly bizarre actions, giving people huddled around her a good time. Up close, it isn’t so different. Some people would probably find difficulty reconciling this voluptuous, effervescent, goofy person with an intelligent, street-savvy one-heck-of-a-girl. This lady, who harnesses a gift for numbers and music, can do some serious ass-kicking in legislation. More than tables, means and probabilities, she’s a friend to be kept and treasured forever.

French class. i should be taking up European Studies since i find myself looking forward to 2:30pm(French) every MWF. although some people are more blessed with linguistic skills, probably my passion would pay off in time. and when i go to Paris... i'll stop now. that's a loooong way to go..

Actuarial Exams. now this is what i should be focusing on. i'm dismissing my hopes of taking the Probability exam come August. it's just too soon. and the next batch is in november, which seems like a better month. but from now on, i'll ~~try to~~ devote at least 2 hours a week studying for it, even if i would tend to repeat several theorems. at least they would stick to my brain cells, much like how the multiplication table is integrated in our systems. my hopes of travelling to europe depend on these exams...

goodbye DSL, hello SmartBro! i hope it's a good decision..but we had no choice. a little cost-cutting is needed. :p

je parle un peu francais

2007-06-04T18:00:00.000+08:00

and oui, i am getting the hang of french! not that much, though. but at least i kinda get the grammar, thanks to my "French: Step by Step" book. and joy was right about having a prof who speaks in pure french. we're actually learning to understand her faster and, well, get other resources like what i did. C'est tres interessant!

i think i lost some brain cells. i've become quite slow this week--in terms of daily routines. the dreamy feeling lessened by friday, good thing, but i still had to touch the bowl everytime i pee..just to see if i'm really in the comfort room. but what's weird is that i'm surprisingly more interested in listening to our profs. so i guess i'm not slow academically since so far, all the stat concepts still make sense.

here's jerick with the ever famous and mysterious McDo icon:

grimace is sooo cute!
and speaking of my brother, i envy his art skills. he did this thing with MS Paint:

we are nuts about Titanic! without knowledge in making instant boxes and shapes,he did it pixel by pixel, zoomed in. amazing!

enzo can be quite mean.. he told me not to post this, but i will anyway..
(over the phone)
me: zo, may papakita dapat ako sayong picture pero hulaan mo nalang kung sino to: naging malapit sayo nung 3rd or 4th year, maitim. tight kayo, partners nga eh.
enzo: si mars?
me: naging close pala kayo nun?
enzo: indi, pero maitim sya..
foul!! i was referring to javier labrador, his badminton partner.

oh but thank youuu, fafi, for this!

that's a bag, btw. the garments are not included. heehee!

lastly, i was tagged by camz and to lengthen this post to make up for my absence in blogosphere, i shall answer it.^_^

Instructions:
Each player of this game starts with 6 weird things about him/her. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says you are tagged in their comments and tell them to read your blog.

1. When i get constipated, i do this weird sound--a habit that became a part of me since i learned to talk--and all the shit just go to where they should be.

2. I used to read Lihim na Liham. Now, if you know what that is, shut up. lol.

3. Almost always, i dream of the last thing i think about before i go to sleep. so more or less, i can sometimes control what i dream about.

4. Kenny Rogers muffins are gooood when mashed with gravy. at least better than their mashed potatoes.

5. Okay this is gross. don't you like the smell of your fart? coz i do.

6. i love eating goats! caldereta.. *drool*

I'm tagging:

i still haven't recovered from the loss of sleep. and for the second day now, i feel that i'm a mere observer. i do not exist. di to drama ah.. yun talaga feeling ko..lutang..sabaw. para kong robot. but it's not negative. i lurve the feeling..and i loove my friends!! Makiling's watapeys pics are up in my multiply!

this one i got from rap:

want 1 for you and your special someone? drop me a line! price is relative to the text and shirt size...

tiiiring first day

2007-05-23T21:40:00.000+08:00

of classes, yes. we're such losers that we start classes in May. and forget going to the gym today, at least we used the stairs to go up the Andrew building's 11th floor this morning. precious calories lost..wee!

if French class will keep on being like a game of charades as it did this afternoon, i'd regret paying for about 5k for that extra class. i don't need French, really. i just took it as an audit course for additional knowledge, meaning i need not go to my classes, take tests, nor will i get a grade for it. the prof was nice, except that the only English word she used earlier was "okay." and that's assuming all of us know nothing about the language. thanks to sir friedel, i learned "vous pouvez repeter sil vous plait" back in zobel. i don't even know if the spelling's correct but heck, i understood my prof when she said that earlier! anyway, i just hope she'll speak in English once in a while to at least make us understand what French sentences she'll be saying. i just want to have something to look forward to every MWF.

SC work. that's what's been keeping me busy. tomorrow at 9:30, we'll be setting up a freedom board as part of our advocacy against having venue rental fees for all academic sectors in dlsu. not that our manifesto against it will completely remove the fees, i just hope the administration will consider it. these fees would greatly affect batch units in the implementation of their activities..tsktsk.

while my butt hurts

2007-05-13T18:07:00.000+08:00

aside from visiting the hospital again, this has been a pretty normal day. quite boring, if you ask me. that's why i ended up reading Entrepreneur magazine and found a few ways to earn extra money. kewl. i hope the idea won't escape me. for that, i'm thinking of learning how to sing jazz.. hmm..
__

there, Just Friends just ended in Star Movies and i can finally concentrate on blogging. i think the movie can give you a good laugh, especially Anna Faris' character, but the "love story" is too superficial: size-ist and definitely not inspiring.
__

anticipation is eating me!!! i'm excited for the 5th movie too, even though i'm not that much of a fan of book 5. but i want to see Dumbledore's Army at work and the fact that Daniel Radcliffe's bod is now KABOOM!

i think i need to read books 5 and 6 again. those are the two that i haven't repeated ever and some facts were quite forgettable. except the deaths and duels. i need to brush up on some of the names at least.

money never became an issue..until now. things are not going well, especially for my dadilolo. i visited San Juan de Dios hospital, but i didn't even see him. apparently, visiting time for patients in ICU is not until 6 in the evening. he still can't talk after a nerve in his brain sort-of..tore? popped? whatever. he's not ok and we're continually praying for him. i've never lost a close relative and i'm not planning to start now.

he collapsed in harrison plaza. whatever the hell he was doing there, i don't know, but he was believed to be blessed to have a stranger bring him to the hospital. not a cent lost, to think he was carrying a lot of dollars and credit cards at that time. none of us even got the chance to thank that person. he --or she-- left the hospital before my mom and lola arrived. well at least we know good people are still around. and that was in harrison plaza, where 50 bucks can get a pervert his *insert adjective here* oral pleasure!!

anyway, to keep things light, i made another shirt! look at the picture..isn't it obvious? ^_^

the background's photoshopped. and ooohh, i look like i have short hair!

speaking of my hair, my mom said i could get it colored. finally! dark blue, perhaps. it would still look black, but a little different. and then i would begin to look like Sapphones, my lovely priestess in Ragnarok. hihi! yey!

i havta make 2 more shirts now... so bye!

"It's OK..."

2007-05-08T21:33:00.000+08:00

not everything is right. sometimes, we hate ourselves for what we do or think or feel. but then i've come to realize the normality of some things and that we respond to situations based on different ideologies. for this, i say it's okay to...

- expect. we are not bound to be surprised every time. anticipation may sometimes lead to frustration, but to expect is like setting a goal that may cause you to be more ambitious--in a good way.

- cry over grades that are short of being excellent. be it 0.07 points from being in the Dean's List or even graduating magna cum laude instead of summa, it's normal to feel bad. makes you always want to do better next time or through other means; it makes you always want to be your best.

- not say you love someone..(NOTE: not all the time!) although this may lead to hundreds of "what ifs," keeping your feelings to yourself may gauge the sincerity of the other person. i wouldn't suggest this, but i'm saying it's okay sometimes.

- be vain. loving the way you look is like appreciating what God has given you. wellthat's giving vanity a whole new look! [Disclaimer: i'm not vain.]

- punch the wall when you're mad. if it'd make you feel good then go ahead! just be ready with some ice and a forgiving heart.

i would like to stress that these are purely based on my personal thoughts and experience. being a non-professional nobody, i wouldn't know if these would apply to you. more to come next time.. xiao.

weirded out and rule crazy

2007-05-07T19:24:00.000+08:00

freakin weird.

i was having dinner with my mom when ate bekbek, whom she asked to buy her tablets for her pimples, showed her the contraceptive pills she bought.

mom: hala pang-pimples ba to?
ate bekbek: yan po yung binigay nyong pangalan
mom: e sabi sa TV eh. nako sainyo nalang to!
ate bekbek: ay ate di po kami gumagamit nyan
mom: ako rin! sa 9 na taon di ako gumamit nyan. withrawal lang at rhythm! bumibilang ako no.

oversharing..
- - -

jaywalkers. i hate them. i always keep from cursing pag may super kulit na mga taong tumatawid just below the overpass. waste of cement and electricity. yes, electricity, since there are overpasses here in Las Pinas with escalators. cool, yeah, but useless. they should let jaywalkers pay! (feeling good citizen of the Philippines ko ba? hehe! but these rules are too simple not to follow.)

i gotta go watch Heroes now! vinci was right about me getting hooked.

sweaty, with the fan just beside me. grr

2007-05-05T18:26:00.000+08:00

palawan was great, though we only spent one day sa beach. still, i love the crocs, falls, the underground river, plus free billiards in the resort. i need more of this kind of relaxation! (more pics in my multiply)

behold the entrance to the underground river..

somehow, i can't go to places like this without at least holding one of their babies. i once held a wild cat in singapore and a snake in tagaytay!

ay iba na to. tsktsk!

but next summer? i'd rather go to bora kahit gasgas na. hold on, wala pala kong mapupuntahan next summer! OJT! crap. kelangan sulitin ang vacant days before the 23rd (first day of classes).

i watched Spiderman 3 with enzo two days ago. although i'm not a blogger who usually rants about the movies i watch or who's skilled to give critiques, i can say i'm not a fan of how emotional the movie was. really, too emotional for spidey. but what the hell, harry is too hot!!! [spoiler] it's a pity he died and scarred half of his face.

the gym's been my daily stop for 3 days now! (dapat lang). it's been costing my mom too much and i don't really get to maximize it. she's actually planning to transfer me to Slimmers' World, which offers a lifetime plan. but before she does, i'mma make the most out of my membership. veggies, i love you now! ^_^

missing you already...

all for now

2007-04-25T10:32:00.000+08:00

i just spent four days in Atrium hotel with the other elected SC officers for our L.E.A.D. it was fun, considering i met most of the people i'd be working with, and that we had five meals a day. ack, that would mean i'd have to go to the gym everyday to lose the pounds i've gained..well at least before we go to palawan on saturday. yey! ka-excite.

it's official. i'm not in the Dean's List. it's a surprise my parents didn't get mad. really, floating subjects should be HATED.

when you don't have things to do, get personal.

i am tired... would rather not blog about it... lesson learned.

anyway....
magandang investment pala ang blackmail. tipong may alam kang importanteng bagay about sa mga tao. and in turn, they too should know something about you. this is what sam would call "mutually assured destruction." black-mailan. ang sama pala pakinggan! survival lang yan. hehe. (matagal ko na tong naisip na iblog pero nalilimutan ko every time.)

nagbabalik

2007-04-15T16:25:00.000+08:00

sa wakaaaasss!!! summer came to me! (pathetic. hihi) i've rarely done things for myself since the general elections, fixing my room included. so yeah, that's one of my priorities before May. gym, too. OMG. i've yet to lose all the unwanted pounds i gained, thanks to our devlish final exams that so needed comfort foods.

missed my laptop! it's with me now, finally, but all the files are gone.T_T and now i don't have photoshop. my cd's missing. grr. eng-eng... i lost my saved pics and my One Tree Hill 4 episodes. until epi 15 pa naman un. *sigh*

course card day. almost there...yoko naaaaaaaa!!!!!!! oh well, so much for 3rd term. SuMmEr: i luurrvvveee yaaahh!!!

my first accomplishment yesterday: printed a new shirt! okay, mejo lame yung nakasulat, but i like how it turned out: dirty and misaligned. perfect. i made another shirt with the line BORN TO ANNOY but i used a bad font so hindi mabasa ung "annoy." ayusin ko nalang at tapalan ng iba. i'm planning to make lots of shirts this summer for next schoolyear.

jerick's been bugging me into looking for a sideview image of Titanic. and i chanced upon this: freaky shit....

....genius.

last night was another first for me. i friggin went swimming in my undies. lol. umuwi pa ko ng basa. katamad na ikwento. sabi naman ng mga kasama ko ibblog rin nila eh. too much info...

nakatabi ko sa likod ng bus ang isang matandang gay (50 yrs old daw) kahapon while going to taft. dyos-meh. bigla nalang nyang kinuwento ang buhay nya sa katabi nyang lola 80 yrs old daw. hindi sila magkakilala. pero they entertained me the whole trip.

lola: anak mo yang nasa picture?
gay: ay oho. gradweyt na sya ngayon ng grade school..
lola: sino asawa?
gay: ay hiniwalayan ko na ho. nakilala ko yun sa parlor ko. 15 years old sya nun, ako mga 37. nakitulog lang ho iyon sa bahay ko at pinakain ko rin, mabait ako eh. kaso ayun nung hating-gabi, ginapang ako at na-rape. kaya eto may anak ngayon.
(kwento pa... hanggang sa bagong boyfriend nya. 6 years na daw sila. napunta kay pacquiao dahil taga general santos rin daw sya. napunta sa pag-abort ng asawa nya ng dalawa pa nilang anak kaya nya hiniwalayan.) pang maala-ala mo kaya..

study break

2007-04-07T15:20:00.000+08:00

think take-home finals would be great? HELL NO. not for Sampling Theory. it's been eating up my valuable study time for my other theory subjects! gawd. nice Holy Week. 1 week nalang...1 week nalang!!!

over my gawddamned head

2007-03-18T12:21:00.000+08:00

i've been away from the blogging world for a million reasons. to cite a few:

1. my laptop's being repaired for the 3rd week now and i miss it terribly.
2. last week was campaign week, and we've been training for weeks before it.
3. tests are quite out of my control these days because of reason #2.
4. still because of reason #2, i only get to spend about 5 hours a day at home, sleep and study time included. kill me now.

oh but good news, i have a new fone!

i think it's quite a beauty, actually. it was my dad's, originally, but he had a hard time adjusting to ericsson's keys. so, akin na to!! yey! cam-whoring time!

- - -
saying something you've kept to yourself for so long can make you feel insanely happy. believe me.

the other Rachel Licarte

2007-02-22T21:36:00.000+08:00

and i'm not trying to be dramatic with the title. i really do have a namesake. to think there are not much Licartes than those directly related to me. rachel ann licarte rin name nya.. naiba lang kami spelling ng "anne." coincidence. i was just trying to see if my blogspot's "searchable" in google then lumabas yang friendster account nya. pinay din eh, but residing in toronto.

nangingialam

2007-02-20T00:16:00.000+08:00

i shall make this shirt soon!

minsan may facade talaga ang mga tao. hindi mo alam kung goody-goody ba talaga ang katabi mo o mahalay o senti o maangas. wala lang, naalala ko lang nung nasa bus ako isang araw. may nakatabi akong taga CSB (lam ko csb sya kasi uniform nya pang-chef) dati tapos nakatingin sya sa labas ng bintana na parang galit sa mundo. katakot. angas. rakista siguro. nakasuksok pa yung ipod sa tenga. malakas. kinig naman ako. hmmm...anong song kaya pinapakinggan nito...kinig pa ko lalo... "you know i’m such a fool for you..you got me wrapped around your finger..do you have to let it linger.." oops. angas pala ah.. "Linger"--by Cranberries. kaya siguro naka-simangot, nag-eemote.

tama na nga, pake ko ba sa trip niya??

and why am i blogging?! aral muna ko ulit.. grr... i hate chem.

luvin' weekends

2007-02-18T21:58:00.000+08:00

since my eyes are tired from reading the pdf file of the numenal notes and from making yet another layout (i love it this time--blue!), i'll make this entry short. para lang hindi naman stagnant ang blog ko. (sana short nga)

so... quick update:

guested in One Night Only--Makuhari Restaurant. after several weeks of voicing practices with ate frida, sabren, and ideza, we finally got the chance to go onstage last night! nanood parents ko, zo, and some family friends. anj said nasa dyaryo kami. tabloid ata. hahaha!

on the way home... cam-whoring with fafi zo!

first time mag-liturgist sa church. oohh.. feel ko ambait ko kanina. ^_^

oh! balik tayo sa wednesday.. twas my best valentine's day ever! simple date lang.. picnic til 11pm! fuuun...first time ko rin magdrive sa skyway! thanks for the toll fee, zo. hihi.

complaints, and more complaints

2007-02-07T00:02:00.000+08:00

to hell with back pains. urgh. all thanks to walking around the mall for 3 hours to look for something to wear for our show, trying to sit up straight in the SJ tables while having a meeting with the COS LAs, and then flumping onto the bus seat with contours that are not meant for human relaxation.

Focus 2005 got *sigh* eliminated for LSAL's women's basketball last thursday. but at least we reached the quarter(or semi?)finals. oh, that day was fuun. we were dismissed at 12:20 so i was able to work out in the gym for about 3.5 hours...then back to school for the special LA session... then went to sports complex to cheer for our batch's team. there were 5 players originally. i became the 6th and changed back into my sweaty gym attire. pathetic. kalahati ata score namin sa BNE 08. but the burnt calories were worth it!

Life Contigency test this morning. oh my gawd. i'm down 15 points automatic. for the 3rd time, i was mentally-blocked with completing tables. yung mga madaling gawin pero nalimutan yung formula.. so patay. nada points for me. and it's a major subject. geez.

i'm kinda regretting i took up BS-STAT. nasilaw nga ata ako sa pera. malaki daw kita sa actuarial science eh. haay.. statistics is not something i really enjoy kahit mejo mataas naman mga stat subjects ko. i mean, i love probabilities but as of now, i can't seem to see myself computing for the rest of my life. oh well, shifting is out of the question. let's see where Gauss' spirit will take me.

we had a meeting earlier and after the discussion, chichi time:
gwen: mga math and stat majors kayo, edi wala kayong lab subjects..baduy!
me: meron ah! sa computer lab. numerical analysis. using excel...

hmm.. come to think of it. we ARE boring people.

"certainly the Lord will guide me where i need to go.."

craazzy, crazy weeks. everything piled up and stole my right to good sleep.
i don't even get to watch american idol anymore! *sigh* but my weekend was great: 2 surprise parties for enzo!

saturday: with his yhe(block)mates

there. i sang "for all of my life." ^_^
thanks for the pic, joy!

if not for sir ele(enzo's prof), i wouldn't have been able to go inside akic. he told the security people i was from PAASCU and they apologized for not letting me in right away. lol.

sunday: with me, fongga, pia, buddy, and the cantimbuhans..
at his house in merville

omg, looovve the food! (pic from rap)

sr-c reps - (rap, marco, and jeg). naglilibot ata.
and here's a poster i made for him:

i heart you.

on koreanovelas: never, never have i thought i would get hooked. rawr! but my mom's case is worse. princess hours marathon until 4am. lol. ako my girl lang. geez. like i said in my ym status yesterday, "hindi ako mahilig sa singkit, pero bakit ang pogi mo??" was refering to Lee Dong-Wook.

jologs. that's what i am. here's what distracts me from work every night at 9:30pm:

gawd. buti kamukha ni zo si gerald!

2007-01-16T22:35:00.000+08:00

wee, free time! finally. it's hard to acquire such a luxury these days. and my gym time is suffering! gawd.

rnp (rules and policies) committee had a pretty light-hearted working session last week. we were working on the council of university representatives (CURE) manual and leah just started a really corny joke that alice and i, both from COS, couldn't understand. so it's back to college-bashing. COS versus them non-science-lovers. they're mean. >:)

- - -
leah: ano apelyido ni denzel?
us: ano?
leah: zulueta.
(this was the one i didn't get. see? baduy naman talaga eh. lol)
- - -
al: ano first name ni nemo?
us: hmm..?
al: sarah gero!
(yey gets ko na to!)
- - -
and so i went on with my classic "magic baston" joke. but i can't tell it here--too explicit and it requires some hand action. (*naughty grin*) benta naman sa kanila eh. mga bastos eh.
- - -
meg: siguro naman kilala nyo yung moffatts? (hindi na 'to joke)
leah: huh?
me: moffatts! yung (*singing*)"mmm bop, ba duba dop.."
them: (*laugh*)
(eng eng! hanson nga pala un)

-
ugh, choco fondue + salmon + mix of red and white pasta sauce + etc. = test of dietary discipline (@ nina's debut). they had very delectable food choices. oh, not choices, since i didn't choose what to eat. i ate a bit of everything! grr. but the really kewl thing about that night was sharing the table with my badminton teammates. i missed them!!!

-
we went to tagaytay again last saturday, but with new company. i met mom's highschool barkada and got to mingle with their kids. which brings me to thinking, will my hs friends ever go out of town in 10, 20 years from now? dapat!!

-
i uploaded another skin with an image that i (*ehem*) drew myself. those who know how i draw people will know i really did it:

well, the frustrated artist (a.k.a. me) didn't stop with layouts. i did my first brushset and put it in my deviant account (click the image below to go to my deviant page and download):

surprisingly, the agham celebration general assembly was fun because
~ i won P3000 from FOCUS 04's raffle project!
~ jologs as i may be called, i'm proud to admit that i know, not watched, recuerdo de amor and got my 15 seconds of fame in the charades.
~ sir mel was, as always, inspiring. perhaps the kewlest vice dean ever!
~ free food! need i say more?

blogging when i should've been doin hw

2007-01-10T20:22:00.000+08:00

to migo, who's viewing this entry from multiply: i couldn't reply to your comment for some dsl connection reason, but the idea of the "blood diamond" part of my previous post actually came from your entry. your review made me want to watch it, really.^_^

wee! thanks to james' screwed up priorities, he's taking StatPac this term instead of last year and our lifeco1 will be moved to 9:40am due overlapping schedules. no more 8am classes!

floating subjects=crap. i'm pretty sure that chem and kaspil2 will be the most demanding and time consuming subjects this term, after hearing what friends and upperclassmen had to say about our profs. geez. on the other hand, i feel like i'll enjoy lifeco1 (life contingencies). the subject's about the probability of death. yes, dying. hmm, this should be interesting...

breaking news: my room is still clean and everything's still in order! yey! it lasted a week! and i'm proud to say that i'm trying real had to be organized this year. to aid me with this resolution, mom gave me the 2007 starbucks planner. hihi! syempre feel na feel ko magsulat.

old flame

2007-01-07T16:54:00.000+08:00

i remember migo saying that The Aviator bored him to the point of leaving the movie house. or was it rap? anyway, the movie didn't have the same effect on me. it's leonardo dicaprio, for crying out loud! i used to worship him.

geez. thanks to watching it, i searched for leo pics again and AGAIN read his movie synopses.

just before starting this post, i chanced on a feature on National Geographic of the movies Titanic and The Abyss. both by james cameron. remember leo's dying scene in titanic? apparently, that wasn't very plausible--he still lasted a few minutes before submitting to hypothermia and was even able to talk.

i've yet to watch the abyss even if it was an earlier movie. hmm..cryogenics and breathing liquids can definitely get my interest.

enough of science, oh my gawd.

it's fun to do icons. i did three last night (see the start of this entry). i'll be posting icons from time to time when i've nothing to do. but that wouldn't be in a while, since tomorrow, we're back to prison. school's back and i need to fix my sched and find time for my other non-school-related activities, aka gym and voice lessons.

back to leo.. i wanna watch Blood Diamond!!! i've heard very good feedbacks about it at kahit gurang na at dirty-looking at may Bar Refaeli na si leo darlin, old flame ko parin yun. hahahah!

updates:

belated happy birthday, kyle! and thank you last fri. we had fun sa katips. malas, i brought my cam but forgot to charge it. eng-eng.

happy birthday, joanna! free lunch daw sa buong block sa monday. joke lang. hehe. ^_^

amazing race. not amazing race asia, or anything on TV. i set up clues around the house for jerick and included tasks like solving multiplication and other academic questions. lo and behold, he didn't complain! see? tactics. the final clue led to a 20-Peso bill and a promise to buy him a cheap toy tomorrow. wrong move, i shouldn't have included the promise. i have 200 bucks with me. maybe less.

new layout! it's pretty simple, just did some brushwork and put in pastels. quite girly, really.

Ace Water Spa. no, haven't been there, but i want to! maybe you've heard about it and i'm late on the buzz. i saw it being featured in Kay Susan Tayo while i was on the bus this morning. then of course i looked it up online and it seemed (haaay) relaxing just seeing the pictures. think water jets and therapeutic pools and bubble massages..herbal pools. oh my gawd. fyi: it's located at 399 del monte ave, san francisco del monte, near corner Banawe St., QC. Tel. numbers 3678040-41. and oh! 4 hours worth of using all services is P480 for adults. actually, it's quite okay kung KKB. hehe! no food allowed.

that's it for now, xiao!

A Sizzlin 2007 to ALL!!!

2007-01-03T23:04:00.000+08:00

my gawd, this blog has been so dead this break. for some irritating reason, our dsl decided to go suhloooooowwww. and when it finally returned to its normal surfing speed, i can't connect to blogger! oh well, i missed blogging.

Dec. 30, 2006. my 19th burtdey. we got home from an overnight in tagaytay before lunch and what was supposed to be a simple pigging out with my family turned out to be one purfect day. there was a big card in my bedroom door with instructions to open the card after opening the door. so...suprise, surprise!

thank you, enzo! syet, ang tanda ko na.

new skins. while i was far from being an active blogger, i entertained myself with making 3 more skins which i submitted for others' use.

the last one's the hardest, believe me. that's the first layout i made using line art and then coloring and shading. it took me almost 6 hours to do the image alone. i need to practice this method more.

room sweet room. yey! finally, i can sleep in my room alone, now that it's clean enough to be inhabited. yes, i do not sleep in my room. haha loser. we're just trying to save up on energy(aircon) so my brother and i sleep in one room. now that i've decided to go solo, i'd have to settle with an electric fan. oh well.

virus. friggin cough and colds. i need more vitamin C!

although it's been said many times, many ways...

2006-12-24T21:25:00.000+08:00

merry christmas to you!!!^_^ i feel quite guilty that i wasn't able to give gifts to my friends except for those whom i've picked for Kris Kringles. well, i don't have that much money these days and no time to make crafts for them because of our finals during the 2nd week. at least i got to give gifts to my parents, two brothers, and enzo. after, nadamoolah left. a mere hundred bill in my wallet.

one kris kringle that i particularly enjoyed and looked forward to was the one with our Batch Assembly officers. i picked poor, poor lorraine. her disappointment during meetings after seeing what her mommy(me) prepared for her delighted me every week.

i gave lorraine something....

naughty: an old Dorm Daze dvd
sweet: 1/2 kilo of sugar
slimy or sticky: 1 plastic of okra
useful: dulcolax(spelling?), biogesic, immodium
long and hard: labanos
soft: cotton balls

...while others got chocolates, belts, beauty stuff, sumans, etc. nyahahaha! pero mejo bumawi ako sa final gift..i hope.

well, well, xmas break update:

Christmas dinner with BA. less than half came but it was fun just the same. karyl asked me to host a game and i did Pinoy Henyo and of course, anlabo ng pinahulaan ko, with statements and words like: "tinga," "Lance Tan," and "Panget ba ako?" wala lang. gusto ko lang sila pahirapan. hehe! thanks, pat, for your amazing roof top!

itsh not bastos...we just like fruits! >:)
more pictures in yoe's multiply.

Sr-C Christmas "party". as always, venue was good old Town(ATC). the whole thing was arranged by dana, of course. she and arlene even prepared xmas cards for each of us, for everyone to write their xmas messages on. really brilliant. we went to alex' place after and did whatever. poker, videoke, inom ng onti.. overall, twas a very mems-able evening. ^_^ missed you, guys. for those who didn't come, well, you missed us. hahah! pics: [x] [x]

blogskinning. it's a good boredom-buster. i signed up in blogskins and submitted some past layouts. i'm still not an expert but it's so fulfilling to see that my works are being downloaded. not as much as others do, but at least one means a lot. i've much to learn and explore. my latest layout's background image is on the right(click here to enlarge). share lang. ^_^

it's 10:30 pm and sooo nearing Christmas! kain nanaman. omg. i have to go to the gym on the 26th. and on 27. 28..blaaach!!! Merry Christmas again y'all!

creative juices

2006-12-19T20:03:00.000+08:00

i'm done with 30 shirts, now my mom's requesting for 10 more. no prob. here are the pictures:

nakakapagod rin pala! it's harder to print on dark shirts...you have to apply the paint with more force and repetitions. i need more practice with shirt-printing and perhaps new screens. mine are clogged and for some friggin reason, my stripper solution doesn't seem to be able do its purpose of removing photo-emulsion from the screen.

i made myself an "i heart stat" shirt a few months ago and have been wearing it to school. my blockmates actually wanted their own and ordered from me but i can't find black baby tees! my friends are too darn thin. wah! my shirt was actually for men, but my mom used her "creative juices" to make it fit me well. she even cut the sleeves, sewed them back and put messy stitches on the back to have the grunged People are People look.

i've been nagging my mom to buy an electric sewing machine since she knows how to sew and has a lot of ideas. if we get one, then she can make our own clothes and i'll print on them! money = saved. then if we can cater to other clothing orders, well, niiiice. money = mine!!!

okay, speaking of shirts. i have a few ideas in mind-- well, not in mind, in soft-copy --that i would like to have for myself. i did drafts in photoshop and perhaps if i can get the new blank screens i need then i can start preparing the patterns and make them.

it says I'M NOT BORED. but the "i'm not" should be really small and yellow. that one's intentional.

this i made during one really good day.

just an idea for an advocacy project. but it's not feasible because it will definitely cost a lot. so anyway, for it's sake, please, do SAVE TREES and ALWAYS RECYCLE!

last. i just wanted a big-eyed girl with luscious lips on my shirt.

well, well, well... it's 6 days before Christmas, 11 days 'til i'm 19, and 13 days till 2007! (did i count correctly? whatever) did you have a good year? i sure did! excited for the next? hell, yeah!

i even made my own 2007 calendar inspired by the song Seasons of Love. the image is too small but the real thing was printed on an A3 poster paper and rests in my room, waiting to be used.

want one? drop a line! ^_^ (i accept cash, check, or anything edible) lol.

oh. i already have my 2nd term grades and as expected, i didn't make it to the 3.4-GPA cut for the 1st honors DL. pero DL parin and that's a relief! 3.5 sa lahat except physics (2.5) pero that's sooo better than my projected grade! i thought i would get 1 in physics and 3 for matrix theory and theory of interest so now i'm super thankful that my profs gave me more. nakabawi pala ako sa finals dun. my stathe performance disappointed me a bit, though. 88 lang finals so yeah, asa pa sa 4.0.

sometimes it's good to be contented. good for yourself, that is. good for mood. but for me, i'd rather be pressured. through the years i've realized that i do better when i start hating myself for not trying to be my best. and i'm hating myself now for Stat kasi mababa finals ko when i could've read the instructions more carefully and would've seen the need to include the cummulative distribution functions in my answers! (huhu nasa scratch paper ko lang eh...) that's a lot of deductions. crap. too late...and what college students always say: bawi next term!

while making money

2006-12-18T13:43:00.000+08:00

wattuupp?!!! lol. new layout again. but it still doesn't look good with IE, or maybe with other screen resolutions too. i'll fix it later when i get back from RnP's xmas bonding session.

i printed shirts for my dad's workers before lunch this morning. still not done. he promised to give me P20 per shirt, so it's 600 for 30! a bit cheap if you ask me, but they provided the materials anyway.

it's 2pm, havta go!

thanks for the book, al! i hope you read maxim mag..haha! geez, ang bigat sa tyan ng soju. it's a korean drink that leah let us try. we finished three bottles while playing a couple of card games. fuuuunnn!!

so how's the xmas break? i went to kat's debut last saturday..kat looked stunning and the food was suuper! there was this acoustic band too and my blockmates asked me to sing. and i never say no to singing. well, almost never. anyway, i sang "especially for you." cheers to kat and jick!♥

oh my gawd. in alex' words, it's D-day tomorrow. for the first time in my college, aka grade-conscious years, i am fearing the fact that i can fail a subject. ugh, physics, why do you have to be partnered with palisoc?! good luck to us tomorrow. one thing to look forward to is chowing down james' cheesecake.

13 shirts to go and i'll get my money! off to moolah-making mode... xiao!

something that doesn't happen very frequently just did. i was bloghopping and stumbled upon arnel's page and as usual, heard "gitara" by parokya (the default tune in his site's music player). then for some reason, the music was loud--loud enough that my laptop couldn't possibly be making the sound. and then ayun! at the exact moment, yun din pala tinutugtog sa Princess Hours. as in sabay na sabay. weird. hehe.

it's not me, it's Saturday.

2006-12-16T07:34:00.000+08:00

do you ever feel like saying something and then out of reasons that are obviously unfavorable to you, you can't seem to find the right words? and then after, just right after that opportunity to muster the courage to speak, all the thoughts and emotions and just about the most appropriate statements come rushing back. that's oddly how i'm feeling now. yes, at 8 o'clock in morning. and i actually thought i would have a good day. maybe that's why i'm blogging now. guess i wanted to see these emotions in black and white-- before the feeling escapes me. because really, feelings have perfected the art of fading away even if you don't want them to. but this time, i hate it and would give everything to make it go away.

i feel stupid. from now on, i should have my own reservations. not that i'm someone with that much experience on feeling rather down, but here's a tip: don't feel like anyone else, as in not another soul, is obliged or is responsible for making you feel happy. they're simply actors in our own stories. from troy bolton's words, "you are the playmaker." feeling happy is not something that others do for you, but something that you make yourself feel after someone else has done something good. we are the ones accountable for our emotions.

remember how i said that thoughts and words come back to you after the actual chance of saying it? perhaps it's fate. otherwise, had i not bottled up my thoughts a long time ago, i would have lived a different life. and i'm happy with how i am now. this time, this "happy" feeling... well i'm hoping that it doesn't fade.

wow, i'm actually contradicting myself. i started with saying how we are accountable, and then now fate is. but whatever is, things we say, or in my case, don't say, can affect us greatly in ways we may or may not notice.

there. i'm not sure if i'm making sense anymore. whatever. i inflicted this upon myself.

well hello, Christmas!

2006-12-15T10:07:00.000+08:00

alas, the week is OVER. no more late-night theorem-analyses. pathetic. so, updates on the happenings in my uber ordinary life:

xmas parties, xmas dinners, and more xmas meals. it has no end. i thought after finals i'd get to lay off on sweets but noooo, ang daming temptations. Rotary Club of Las Pinas had its xmas party last night and my parents dragged me with them. really, really good food. and not surprisingly, my dad volunteered me to sing a number. i actually brought a minus 1 cassette tape (as instructed by my mom) but apparently, these days' sound systems don't have such "old school" tape decks. i just sang "If I Believe" by Patti Austin from the videoke equipment provided.

Schedule for the week
Dec 15: Batch Assembly Christmas dinner
Dec 16: debut
Dec 17: Gawad Kalinga in the morning, Christening in the afternoon, debut at night.
Dec 19: aaack!!! Course Card day!!!
Dec 20: please...gym day na sana to....
Dec 21: Christmas dinner with Sr-C. when and where, we don't know yet.

geek quote. kuya norman forwarded this message, which i found quite funny...

"we are on the same plane... but sadly, we would never meet" -parallel lines. o di ba? pwede mag emote sa math! =D

...and which i forwarded to sam and got this yet-again-geeky reply:

sam: sa non-eucledian math, pwede mag-meet ang parallel lines.

to no surprise, i don't friggin know that.

finals. well, it's a good thing that compared to our quizzes, the final exams were a bit easier.

i'm not supposed to be blogging right now since it will probably eat very precious minutes that are meant for studying, but screw it. freedom awaits me on december 13th. pero puyat days before that and i have--although against my will--loaded myself with sinful sweets to at least up my adrenaline.

btw, james! para sayo ung pic sa right. hahaha! malas naman aral ng aral sa bday. tsktsk! also, belated haberdey to elcid(10th) and marco(8th)!

2 finals down, 3 to go! we're planning a study group tomorrow for physics but still haven't decided on the venue. syet. i need at least a 2.0 para dL parin!! i used to like physics... badtrip to!!

that's it. time to do some solvy solvy. eww.

when it comes to being lucky, i'm cursed

byebye, 1st honor dean's list... all thanks to physics and probably a bit of all my other subjects. we took our last Stathe quiz this morning for more than 2 hours. alas, a start of a bad day. it's not that something really unfavorable happened, i'm just not feeling too chirpy.

ang dami kong...
why wouldn't anyone...
i need...
syet. wala akong masabing pwede dito. labo ng lahat. labo ko.

this game is adddiiiicccttiiingg and at the same time--unfortunately--veers my attention from Stathe1. my mom has the same game in her O2 mini and she's still playing with it as i type this. adeek na. try it!

here's a screenshot:

the goal is to clear the path and move other cars so that the yellow/orange one can go to the red exit. requires logic and patience... actually, i remember going to ATC (at Hobbes) and playing the real thing (not virtual). mom had said i could use the credit card to buy it pero yoko na...800 bucks for a puzzle game?
_ _ _

today's my first time to go to school and back home twice. and it was quite heavy, financially speaking. my bad, though. i photocopied liselle's stat notes for our quiz and i friggin brought home her notebook! i was relaxing on my bed--kakatae nga lang eh--when she texted and out of guilt and shame, i rode the bus again to school to give it back.

lesson learned: copy notes. completely.

i do have notes, except that at times, my body clock does not permit it. due to unfavorable circumstances, i sometimes arrive at 9am for my 8am Stat class. i didn't have problems going to school as early as 6 during the general elections last school year, but for some reason, 8:00am has this weird force that seems to repel me. yak! this is so physics. haha! enough.

bottomline: i hate 8am classes.

show me the money! really, i need some cash... pang exchange gifts. ang dami eh, halos lahat worth P200 dapat. my block's gift-giving is this thursday and i haven't thought of anything yet. not that my recipient is that hard to please. the thing is, i have 2 days to friggin come up with 200 pesos. omigash! batch assembly kris kringle rin pala sa thurs... hmm.. something long & hard... that's not too difficult. ;p

my brother can be a future lawyer. young as he is (8), he has his principles and arguments--although not all the time correct:

(mom scolding jerick)
mom: jerick, bata ka pa. wag ka sagot ng sagot. sumunod ka nalang sa mga sinasabi namin.
jerick: edi para na kong robot nun?

now that's philosophy right there! debate on free will... haha!

harsh day, mentally, with three quizzes that require analytical patience. take it from vinci. he has pretty much ranted about it in his blog.

my mom wasn't as patient as i had expected when i tried teaching her how to use photoshop. i'm not sure if my explanations were effective, seeing how she donned the things-weren't-this-complicated-during-my-time look when i started talking about layers and opacities. oh well.

while studying last night and going online at the same time, enzo amused me with his
super corny hirits:
_ _ _
enzo: uy..baka kelangan natin magpapicture
rach: wrong send
enzo: d a..
rach: huh?
enzo: sayu yan
rach: for what?
enzo: para madevelop tayo
rach: amfuts

enzo: pinaglihi ka ba sa keyboard?

enzo: kc type kita

enzo: sa tae pinaglihi ka?
rach: baket?

rach: waaah

enzo: bka sa flinstones may relasyon ka?
rach: ?
enzo: coz..u make my bed-rock
enzo: nyek!
_ _ _
that simply made my day. hahah!

[warning: malicious content]
here are some GIFs that i've stored in my good old nokia that you might find disturbing, but i'll post them anyway. hihi.

sagwa ba? haha
_ _ _

what's with the food these days? or perhaps lifestyle? tita Susana Pichay, my vocal coach and a professional singer before Cory's days, told me how small her waistline was before she got pregnant. my mom's also used to be only 23. hmm who else..one of my stat profs, plus more middle-aged women i know whom i wouldn't have imagined to be sexy back then, but were. now, but now! eto ako nagpapakahirap mag-gym! haha! but really, i think it has something to do with the food. (ayaw pa talaga tanggapin eh no?) i mean, there are more junk foods these days. more hotdogs. more fast food chains. more money! i need to live in a world with less temptations.
_ _ _

marco surprised me with some questions just now:

marco: oi
rach: oi
marco: bat d mo na kasama si enzo sa mga pic?
marco: status ba
marco: pati puro emo

oookaaay...eto pa:

marco: sino na ba bagong lalaki mo

parang ewan. haha!

btw, here's a new layout! inspired by the well-thought, moving, and perhaps the best episode of one tree hill so far: Some You Give Away.

i hope to hell there wouldn't be electrical problems when the typhoon comes. another Milenyo is too much for any of us to handle.
_ _ _

bitttiiiinnn!!! one tree hill season 4 definitely won over my plans to study theoint last night... i've only downloaded until the 8th episode from youtube and settled with the flv player.. no worries, basta OTH. rawr! james lafferty is too damn hoooottt!!!
_ _ _

contrary to what i had hoped, i didn't get "tanned" enough when the SC went to La Luz, Batangas last weekend. but it was fun and though i risked my physics test and chose the beach, i've no regrets. (pictures in my multiply)

masarap pala ang Orgy? hehe.

we had to walk through this dark path to get there... at 1 am.

_ _ _

before i forget, here's another of sam's unconsciously-said geeky lines:

(during one Theory of Interest class when we were asked to solve for a certain problem and sam realized she got it wrong)
sam: rach, mali ako... aww, kawawa ka naman...
me: sinong kawawa? ako?
sam: yung solution ko...di na s'ya magagamit..
me: you're talking to your solution?
_ _ _

some people just don't have any care in the world. they do whatever they want. jologs. proof?

vandalisms. deeds of them senseless, bored, and idiotic commuters. i took the pictures while on a Tas Trans bus with vinci, sam, and joanna. if the photos aren't clear: the left one said "kantutan very good," while the other, "Tropang Britney Spears." wala lang. amfness.
_ _ _

may God help me study for finals. all my subjects this term are either theory-based or require solving and thus, are all time-demanding.

Dec. 11: Calculus and Matrix Theory
Dec. 12: Theory of Interest and Stat Theory
Dec. 13: Physics 2

you read the title right. not your usual combination of mood but yeah, that's how i feel today, having lost 2 friggin pounds! haha! add to that an accomplished day: spending a couple of hours in the gym, being able to help someone without really meaning to, bumping into people that are worth seeing, and singing along with someone special.

jerick's pet is getting bigger. i meant his Tamagotchi.. and super inggit ako!!! i wanted one but my mom wouldn't give me money. P999 eh..darn. buti pa baby bro ko may sariling pera.

hello, saturday!

2006-11-18T19:16:00.000+08:00

if you can call working my ass off in the gym pampering, then yeah, i guess i pampered myself well today. i only did cardio, though, but it's tiring just the same. just try watching a whole movie while running on the treadmill! so there, i watched Daylight, starring Sylvester Stallone. i used to love action films like such, but these days, action movie effects tend to be too unrealistic and beyond my liking.

..which brings me to enumerate...

fave action stars as a kid:

- Jean Claude Van Damme (eto talaga panalo sakin ^_^ - Kickboxer, Bloodsport, Death Warrant, Hard Target,... name them)

- Keannu Reeves in Speed (part 1) lang. i didn't like The Matrix

- Sylvester Stallone in Rocky and Daylight

- Arnold Schwarzenegger in True Lies and Kindergarten Cop

- Bong Revilla. seriously. haha! especially his remake of Kindergarten Cop. but the local version's entitled Ang Titser Kong Pogi.

- Michael Treanor. if you don't know him, well, he's Rocky in 3 Ninjas. when i was in Senior Prep, i think the movie was shown to us in class. for what? i dunno.
_ _ _

anyway, nag-fade rin naman yang hilig ko sa action when i realized i would never enrol in Karate.

that's van Damme doing his super straight splitting kick..

..and now i can't imagine that i used to dream of marrying him. Gawd.

blah blah.. enough of childhood mems.

my mom is --i believe-- testing my determination and discipline when it comes to resisting (ack!) food. she cooked dinner and made extra effort to make the presentation even more tempting. then when i opened the fridge in her room, there's this platter of graham cake topped with crushed oreos, and yeahboy i only had one friggin bite! maybe two. damnit.

btw, i-link ko lng... my multiply. i've posted long overdue pics from my phone.
_ _ _

i was bored and visited blogthings again. here are my test results:

You Are Sunrise

You enjoy living a slow, fulfilling life. You enjoy living every moment, no matter how ordinary.
You are a person of reflection and meditation. You start and end every day by looking inward.
Caring and giving, you enjoy making people happy. You're often cooking for friends or buying them gifts.
All in all, you know how to love life for what it is - not for how it should be.

What Time Of Day Are You?

i think it pretty much described me, except for the part about cooking for friends and giving them gifts. reason: can't cook and am very, very kuripot. ^_^

Your Scholastic Strength Is Evaluating

You are great at looking at many details and putting them all together.
You are talented at detecting subtle trends, accuracy, and managing change.

You should major in:

Statistics
Speech
Conflict studies
Communication
Finance
Medicine

What Should You Major In?

ayos to ah! Statistics parin una... yey! i showed it to my mom and again, she insisted that it included Medicine--something that she personally wants for me. but she's okay with stat so no prob.

where are you?!

what's up with our dsl? good thing i am now connected to the wonderful world of web. for 2 days i felt apart from everything..w/o ym. huhu. last thursday, i was planning to have another online group study with my blockmates for our physics quiz. come friday, the test was a bit easier than the first, but still unsatisfying. Dr. Palisoc certainly has a knack for making things more difficult than they really are. hmph.

i got home quite late last night. geli, camille, ivy, kb, joy, and i went to mall of asia and had dinner at Sbarro and temptation won over me. half a slice of cheese pizza was irresistable. i gave the other half to joy and her "friend," joshua. after dinner and a little strolling, we headed to Hotel Philippine Plaza. it's the former Westin. ivy said the management's changed. that's sad.. a lotta mems there, but i'd rather not mention them. sa private blog nalang. ^_^

so yun, coffee coffee lang and acting like typical socialites--which we are not--then lumabas din ang tunay na mga kulay: we sorta played with the hammock and joy's camera. feeling FHM na naman ako. welcome back, Aleck Bovick! harharhar. pictures to follow...

kb had another kb moment back in MOA. while strutting herself with no care in world, nagpapansin ang kanyang heeled sandals. tsktsk. thank geli's mom for her safety pin or kb would've spent over a hundred for another pair of footwear.

3 hours in the gym is time well spent. i need to burn that taste of Sbarro. rawr!

i'm missing someone when i shouldn't. grr.

drink 8 glasses of h2o a day. i never realized it to be so useful. yesterday, my mom had her kidney stones "lasered" and ground and spent 45 grand for the painful treatment. kulang daw sa tubig dati. she's now required at least 2L of water a day. nyay.

seriously. cramming has taken it's toll on me. i shouldn't be writing in my blog right now. i should be practicing how to get the resistivity of copper! after hours of reading through liselle's photocopied notes, i am ready to hit the bed. hihi! pero nakakatakot humiga, coz for sure mawawala antok ko once i get a comfortable position. that's how it always is. habang nag-aaral, onting higa lang nakakatulog agad. but when it's finally time to visit dreamland..amfness happens. kaya nagblog muna aku..

it's 11:30pm.. havta wake up at..6? leave by 6:30 to get to school in time for another--ack!--meeting at 7:30am. baket ang agaaa?!?! 6:30pm pala may meeting uli. until about 8:30. 8 nalang, sige. so that's more than 12 hours in school...yak. havta wear comfortable shoes.

Keep in mind, rach. You can do it:
1. Kirchhoff's Current Rule (KCR)
a. incoming current: add
b. outgoing current: subtract
2. Kirchhoff's Voltage Rule (KVR)
a. Seat of emf
a.1 from (-) to (+): add
a.2 from (+) to (-): subtract
b. Resistive elements
b.1 against the current: add IRs
b.2 with current: subtract IRs

after 3 livejournal entries, i've decided to move back to blogspot. i'm more comfortable with free html-ing here. it's enough that i've learned to change my LJ layout.

anyway, here's a new simple look for my page. can't get enough of blue... ^_^

in a while magtutuos na kami ng stat theory at physics. i want to maintain my stat standing and need to pass physics. 35/100... nampuchang score yan. i envy my blockmates who dropped phyfun2 because of the prof. nice move.

last friday, i was standing in line (to see the show tonight and there's a light on heavy glow...joke lang) and waiting to get Liselle's notes photocopied. i paid the xerox lady P100 and was told that she didn't have any change. fortunately, the good-hearted guy next to me offered to give me 20's for my 100.

then i looked at him.

kaboom!

si Sir Friedel! -(4th year french teacher) but i don't think he knows/remembers me. T_T he said he's teaching French and computer in DLSU and CSB. sabi na gusto nya lang malapit sakin. we had a history, mind. nyay joke lang. it was like seeing claudio valdes, only with more hair and a bit older. heehee.

i was in church this morning and even joined the choir. after the mass my little devlish horns sprouted again-- maude (my choirmate) and i took a pack of ostyas (the thin circular wafers used for communion). feel naman namin hindi na gagamitin eh. baka tira na. sana... i munched on half of my share on the bus ride home. tsktsk.

errr...aral na muna ko. i should be in Bulacan now, fishing, but i told my mom i need to study. so sayonara.. ^_^

too lazy...

2006-10-29T20:34:00.000+08:00

yey! i finally learned how to make animated GIFs.

btw, i might stop updating this blog for now. i've started using my livejournal and am trying it out but i'm not sure if that's for good. so i'm keeping this in case di ko matutunan mag-ayus ng layout dun.

yun lang. haha! will get back to you...

rainy day memories

2006-07-25T00:04:00.000+08:00

no classes tomorrow = badminton day. after more than a year of not seeing my beloved fake yonex, i finally needed it. it was surprising to realize that my badminton bag still felt heavy, until i opened it. i never thought it carried this much senior year mems. it pretty much told me how disorganized i was (but i guess i was still disorganized in college, until about 2 days ago). papers, papers, and still more papers were inside and it felt quite good to see them. ahh... like i'm back in zobel.

included are:

- Sir Joon's 1st quiz (13/15, pwede na...*TAKE NOTE: he used a green metallic pen*)

- Stella's physics seatwork... bat nasakin to?! (the one with the velocity vs time graphs)

- Ms. Reyes' work sheet on pregnancy ekek (again, di nasubmit)

- Physics take-home quiz (woohoo! 19/20! =D)

- Parents' Bulletin (Vol. 4, No. 6) reply slip (di uli nasubmit)

- scratch papers for Bado's requirements

- a filler with one journal (for english, i think. i wrote about the cellphone incident)

-Lason: Ang Ganti ng Kahapon script. okay..definitely A LOT of mems..

- Senior prom reply slip and parental consent form (how i was able to go without submitting this, i do not know. but going to my senior prom is by far the best decision i've ever made)

at marami pang ibang stuff... may alcogel na onti palang bawas, pens, and Extra Joss. and once again, i can't bring myself to throw them away...

my Senior-C family

the rain and the many hours it took me to study for the "supposed" calculus test are probably the ones responsible for all this senti shit. nyt y'all.

all cleaned up

2006-07-22T22:24:00.000+08:00

to start doing a task is always the hardest. but once you begin, it gets easier and before you know it, you're done. i finally got my room tidy enough to be inhabited. without clutter. maybe i just found it hard to trash things before, even if i know i won't use them.

here's a new layout! inspired by my fave song from vertical horizon, Best I Ever Had. the past layout, the pink one, was fine but some found it hard to get to the blog part. so now i just made a simple one.

while in my cousin's house in bulacan kanina, i friggin stepped on dog shit! havaianas pa man din suot ko..first time yun..pati mismong paa ko nagkaron. eww. to think before that, kinukulit ko sya na ibigay sakin ung isang puppy na pug. now? NO THANKS. i would never want a dog again.

for the first time, a got 70% in a calculus exam and it's frustrating. now how am i supposed to get a 4.0?! the darn subject's worth 4 units and it'll greatly affect my GPA. *hoping to be in the 1st Honors Dean's Lister this term...* i need 6 consecutive terms in that list to be a candidate for the Jose Rizal Honors Society and now that idea seems quite vague. 3 terms palang... badtrip talaga 'tong term na to, even for the other subjects. i don't blame my extracurriculars. i'm sure it has nothing to do with them. academic negligence is just killing me.

I need to be...
1. more studious
2. OC
3. more understanding
4. an "Ate"
5. slimmer by summer `07. haha!
6. a rich actuary by 25 years old
7. an artist! (frustrated...)
8. ready for my recital on June 29
9. ready for our jazz dance number for the recital
10. forver happy...much like how i am now. =D

raindrops keep fallin on my head!

2006-07-12T13:22:00.000+08:00

so it's a wet wednesday... classes are suspended! they should've announced the suspension earlier. ugh. now i'm here in Collegian net cafe just across North gate waiting for enzo. that's one good thing about today though: we're goin' to makati and i'll probably accompany him as he shop... haha baliktad =D i'll just worry about studying for my physics exam tonight.

speaking of exams... the hell with INTOSET (introduction to set theory...wtf?!) the class had a median grade of 64%, and 16 failed. i'm hoping for a make-up test. yeah, i passed, pero mababa and sayang naman. with my current standing, there's no way to get a 4.0, and i'm freakin aiming for that.

i finished watching one tree hill season 3 and woohoo! inlavavo na ko lalo kay james lafferty! anak ng patatas na itsura yan... H-O-T. he'll most probably graze my layout next time i change it. ;)

oh, happee birthday monique!!! 19 na si istik! hihi!

3 days from now, migo'll be leaving pinas...huhu... ingat ikaw at good luck sa girls! hope you'll make it as fitness first singapore's new body jam instructor! oh yeah! =D

sarap ng food nung despi ni migo last sat... masarap rin ung cheesesticks, pag magaling kang kumagat. antigas! hehe! peace! saya sya kainin though. ;) kakamiss senior-C!!! see pics from mae's multiply...
nadapa pa ko... asa pa kasi sa heels... bruises on both knees...gawd. sabi kasi ni pia "migo" clothes daw ang suotin...mejo pakikay tuloy kami. pero yung iba madaya! boo!!!

pangya muna ko... kakainggit mga katabi ko sa shop...playing Ran, RO, Dota... bye!

after my cheesedog break..

2006-06-21T21:56:00.000+08:00

just when i have nothing much to do, i can't connect to yahoo messenger and at least have a decent chat with my friends. i went blog-hopping instead! and look at what i found...

nice one, hermy! s'ya kaya yan?

i am actually hooked to "bituing walang ningning." wah! ba't ba kasi andun si carlo aquino?! hahahaha! although i'm not that much into soaps, this one has a familiar story because of the movie, which i have seen like what, dozens of times? eerrr... hihi!

nasira ang plans ko ng pag-diet today. i woke up at 6:30am to go to the gym (without breakfast) and since we had an LA session during the ubreak, i only ate a jamaican pie for lunch.... dinner without rice..and plenty of water! but just before i started blogging, ate lala cooked cheesedogs and i thought of something: cheesedog and rice with melted cheezweez (microwaved). damn it! right after eating i remembered what sam once said: "a moment in your lips, forever in your hips." hah! too late...

TS online.. another game that caught my eyes. they have a booth at the central plaza and the ragnarok-ish characters are so cute! hmmmm.... /gg

it's the recruitment week for the organizations and i still don't have money to renew my memberships. i can't ask from my mom..she's just paid my voice lessons and i've been spending a lot lately. hmm... gusto ko pa naman mag MOOmedia... can't get enough of things to do! byebye tamad days..haha!

Current tune: none. just WBC International's advertisement in the background... Go Pacman! baduy nga lang may movie...wehehe

when eyed by a dog, don't run.

2006-06-18T16:34:00.000+08:00

one has to thank a stress-free weekend. no quizzes or deadlines for monday! we went to tagaytay with mom's TG barkada and i got to spend time with aj and cid again. enjoy mag-magic sing especially now that we've figured out the technique for high scores! :D puyatan nanaman...

now about the title of this entry, poor jerick was chased by a bitch this morning. he only stopped crying when we said that since it turned out he was a fast runner, he can try kid's soccer.

hmm...still sleepy from last night's long vocal torture..

Current tune: Best I Ever Had - Vertical Horizon

So you sailed away...into a grey sky morning...

Belated HABERDEY vinci!!!(june 17)

Happy Dad's day to your fafas!

i've got so much to see..this is where i wanna be

2006-06-04T13:00:00.000+08:00

Calculus isn't much fun these days--this term, for that matter. thank you, my dear queer professor and your favorite student, the blackboard. 2 precious butt-against-wood hours are all i can take with him. so it's Leithold and me again... save me..

The first two weeks weren't that stuffed and neither did i go home right after classes. masaya naman tumambay sa school 'til about 5:30.. ;)

i finally accomplished a summer goal: have my room repainted and my stuff in order. well, maybe just the painting part. i still have some of my things in boxes...

take a look!

ahuh, a bit generous on colors but i have it just the way i like it.

we went to Mall of Asia yesterday. huge that i didn't expect us to have a hard time finding a place to eat. my mom got hungry at exactly 12 noon and the good restaus already had people waiting. but good thing i was finally able to shop. wee! new sneakers!

masama akong Ate...

malabo yan pero magegets nyo.. wah.. guilty..hehe!

soooo... byebye Philippine Idol dreams.. my vocal coach wanted me to audition but i just didn't have the guts. i wanted to... a bit. waaah! tapus na ang june 3... maybe next time... Naaah.

want time to speed up? get busy.

Current tune: Pure Shores - All Saints. (missing Leo... we HAD something..haha!)
Craving for: a hug... and choco-banana-peanut crepe with ice cream from Z2 Cafe. 40 bucks.^_^

2006-05-25T20:48:00.000+08:00

i hope it's normal for one to feel that most of the things he does are not right. that way i won't be so paranoid and perhaps be more efficient. and once again the "what-ifs" wouldn't be that significant. that's all, no details.

2006-05-19T10:52:00.000+08:00

alas, the last friday of summer. it's not as if i've been a total bum these days-- pretty busy, actually. but i found time to learn a few online games that got me up early, got me up late at night, and got me up every freakin' freetime: Pangya and O2Jam. blame enzo for creating an addict. but for a couple of days i've tried to veer away from the pc..(or it'd be hard to adjust when school starts!) pero try nyo rin maglaro!!

oohhh... two remaining Idol people... sino kaya... =)

HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY TO ALL YOUR MUMS! =D

2006-05-14T10:03:00.000+08:00

lazy day with bryan adams

2006-05-11T12:28:00.000+08:00

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

Back in the summer of '69!

what's with his voice that simply captivates? or is it just me? pansin ko paulit ulit songs nya sa ipod ko... kakaiba lang talaga. a little raspy, but relaxing.

i finally realized that wearing glasses can be a hassle. hehe yeah, i have a pair now. my vision's still clear, but the doc said i have astigmatism..whatever that is. i got thrilled when i heard i should wear one. pang-porma sana. dati nga sinasadya ko magbasa sa dilim para pwede na ko mag-salamin. but now that mine is already a few days old, i'm starting to get tired of it. ambigat pala sa mukha.

hala! eto na si jerick..mag art attack na daw... sus.
- - -
after 30 mins...

jerick bugged me again and said he was going to watch tv na at chupi nanaman ako. boss talaga yun sa bahay. pwe. so ito blog nanaman ako..=D (ayaw ko nood tv sa ibang rooms kasi 1 aircon lng dapat bukas pag daytime)

ei! try this link.

glad to learn i'm about as tall as shakira, mary kate olsen, and kylie minogue. ok na ko dun. normal pa naman pala.. and i'm taller than Lil Kim and (ack!) Dakota Fanning---dapat lang?

kayo, sino kasing tangkad nyo? =D

eto luma na...pero wala lang: http://www.blockfrenzy.com

i wish bedrooms are as easy to makeover as blog layouts. my dad said i could get my wallpaper removed and my room repainted. wee! but i can't seem to decide what color or theme. gusto ko parang sa living room ng PBB teens...heheh!

Craving for: halo-halo and lomi! (not the instant lomi...yung tunay.)
Current tune: Kama Supra - Eraserheads (tama na muna Bryan Adams... =D)

bago nanaman..papatagalin ko na to.

2006-05-10T20:13:00.000+08:00

err... a new layout again. hihi! i know, i know... it's a bit too girly for me. but what the heck. i once loved pink. sabi na magsasawa agad ako sa previous layout(blue one). masyado maliit yung text area.

tafters have a week and a half before school starts and i still haven't seen at least half of Sr-C. boo. at least some of us got to enjoy at Splash Island. hihi!

- - -
can't wait for Fitness First-SM Southmall to open! too bad migo's moving out of the country... ang lapit sana sa bahay nila nun. as for me, please! sana 3x a week na talaga gym ko... rawr! habulin kita migo!

- - -
thank you, kat, for a good laugh. hehe! i was testing colors for my layout when she texted me: "Pak pak pak pak pak pak lilipad..kapag ikay may pak pak pak" and i was like, "hah?!" heheheh! apparently, it was supposed to be for her cuz. thanks, anyway. bored ako nun.=D

i finally learned how to use the getElementbyID thing in html. hence, a new layout! just played with the brushes using my fave color. =D but i doubt that this layout will last for me. the area where the text appears is too small. maybe i'll use my panda layout pag mejo nagsawa.. or a new one. yeah, maybe a new one. =D for now, eto muna.

bora trip

2006-05-03T22:02:00.000+08:00

it's funny how a near-perfect vacation can turn nasty towards the end. the 7:30pm departure from caticlan port was delayed til what, 1 am? di ko na lam, basta pagod na kaming lahat... all because of the insensitivity of some. katamad na ikwento but that was one of the few times na natakot ako. there could've been a stampede of passengers if it had rained. thank God hindi. =D

dagdagan pa ng temper ng ilang tao:

man: wag magtulakan! baka ma-ultra tayo! may mga bata dito.
man2(the bastard): mag-eroplano nalang kayo kung ayaw nyo maperwisyo!
_ _ _
mommy: miss...(*forgot what she said*)
lady: hindi ako miss. doctora ako.
mommy: (*di na pumatol but gives her "the look"*)

pero kahit mejo sabog ang ending, masaya parin. natuloy yung parasail! minsan lang sa buhay yun mangyari... the P1500 was worth it. haha!

jewik and his goggles!

wah! pano ito gawin?!

nyahaha minsan vain din ako

no turning back...

strapping up!

and up we go!

and up and up and... masaya sya. =D

first time ko sa balsa! (Dapdap River)

ala lang! share lang!

xiao! =D

nognog na!

2006-04-30T19:13:00.000+08:00

woo! boracay kami ngayon and thank Smart Buddy may free internet! they have this Hot Summer Samahan thing...bamboo concert din maya!:D enjoy naman... got my hair braided and baka bukas mag parasail! sana matuloy..anyway.. malapit na magclose tong free net kasi kakanta na si kawayan. baboo!!

missed the net

2006-04-15T17:37:00.000+08:00

our family went to Baguio--again--for the Holy Week and i haven't blogged in a while. and even if i brought my laptop to kill time, i wasn't able to use it that much...and it's my mom's fault! haha! she taught my younger cousins how to play Zuma and Feeding Frenzy at wala na silang ginawa kundi kulitin ako. and so to live in peace i settled with Jerick's gameboy.

Wednesday night--my cousins(the elder ones), paul, and i went to Padi's Point and ordered 4 barrels of SMB, sisig, and kilawin. i didn't drink as much as i expected to...mejo matabang yung beer, di masarap. ate jing said she has a friend working in Padi's (not the branch we're in) and the friend told her they usually put water in the barrel..so mejo may daya pala. two bands played that night. the first one had an excellent male vocalist--in terms of voice quality. but they didn't seem to capture the crowd's party mood because of lack of umm, movements? anyway, the second band was, in my opinion, the better one. and although the vocalists weren't the best voices, they got the people on their feet and the dancing started. and perhaps the bikini-wearing-is-she-in-baguio singer helped get the y-chromosomed perverts bumpin. eto namang mga pinsan kong lalaki and (ACK!) pati si Paul joined the girl who was pole-dancing at the corner. she's from the table next to ours at nakipag-flirt naman mga kasama ko. heheh! pag-uwi sa bahay(still in baguio)... we checked the pictures taken at Padi's and hihi... mas maganda daw yung girl nung nasa corner. in the dark. hirit mga pinsan ko kamuka daw ni PEPAY sa Home Along Da Airport. i don't know, i don't watch that..hehe. although i didn't like the crowd in Padi's that much, i enjoyed the night with my pinsans. this is what i call unwind... /gg.

yesterday(friday) wasn't my first time in Strawberry Farm pero nun lang ako talaga naka-step sa farm na part. and thank my forgetful mind that i didn't get to bring any footgear aside from the slippers i was wearing when we left las piñas. kung nadala ko mas magandang shoes...yun susuotin ko sa farm na SOBRANG PUTIK.buti nalang. but boo, we didn't pick any strawberries... 200 a kilo. sa market nalang! but i had another first sa farm..first time kumain ng strawberry taho. imbis na arnibal, stawberry syrup with strawberries talaga. yum!

anyway...bahay na uli ngayon. and i tried playing Dota. mahirap! pero masaya pag nakakapatay... though most of the time ako yung pinapatay kahit pc palang kalaban ko. kainis! summer naman..practice practice. hah! gotta love the break!

this picture was taken at Night Safari in Singapore. saw it while browsing through my files and remembered how sorry i was for the 5 dollars i spent for this pose. it's not everyday that i get to carry a real live snake and parang sinadya pa ni daddy na putulin ako sa picture! did the guy in that costume appeal to him more?!

---
oohh ayan nafeel ko na... bakasyon na!! finally. first plans of action: organize my pc files, update blog and links, and type the contents of my inbox para naman mapagawa na yung long-overdue kong fone.

hate my philosophy test this morning. whatever. anyway, and cute pala ng Zathura! yun pala yung ginagawa ni jerick na boardgame sa folder...

---
we had our PE Dance finals last saturday and i didn't expect that much people. ang dami pala naming nag PE dance.. i saw myka and sab! sumayaw rin kasi sila nico and gee. waaah! kainggit yung awardees na under Mr. Ronda. nun ko lang naenjoy manood ng ballroom.

about the marinduque trip kyle was offering.. sayang hindi ata matutuloy. sana at least before summer ends may matuloy na outing ang Sr-C...

...sa mga ganitong tipo ng lugar...

naku ayan na si mommy...pinapagalitan na si jerick at mababa ang grades. hahaha!

-----1:30pm-----
ang saya magising na alam mong di mo kelangan maligo agad. pero nagtoothbrush muna ko sympre. hihi! then diretso na sa pc and worked on anj's blog layout. simple lang.. pero natagalan ako coz i reviewed css. tried to start the html from scratch..nang hindi nagccopy paste sa aking past layouts(which were just editted versions of other people's layouts). so this is basically my first layout na ako lang talaga ang gumawa: wee! it's just a little favor for my dear friend. wala ako maisip na itsura. she just told me to make it green and i put an image of a green-eyed cat. i had some problems with it, though. baket ba ang laki laki ng "About me" ?!?! ayun talaga ang di ko masolve...kaya yan anj bahala ka na magedit pag may ayaw ka.. hehe! nagenjoy rin naman ako sa paggawa kaya ok lang! nalimutan ko na nga magbukas ng notes for math114..yikes! maya maya nalang... after maligo. hahahah! yeah... haven't taken a bath yet. amfness. sige na ang init eh. babay!

-----gabi-----

sakit ng ulo ko... i can feel it sort-of throbbing. tatanga-tanga kasi eh. nauntog ako sa pinto ng banyo ko. i'm sure it's because of that.

today has been a semi-productive day. aside from finishing anj's blog, i studied the 1st part of our calculus finals. hopefully i can finish the freakin-long coverage. the exam's on friday pero baka di ko matapos. we still have stat and statpac on wed.

SUMMER(maikli for tafters) - 1 WEEK = FINALS

ay nako, storbo.

when 2nd term started, i bought the novel Sophie's World for our philosophy class to get additional grade if i made a book report. i didn't. and maybe it's because of the historic genre or our workload that i just can't finish books these days. 97 out 427 pages. naknangpatatas. the book before that was Rule of Four. i ended up lending it to sam and asking her to judge it for me. then maybe when she says it's okay then i'll read it this summer.

i miss my phone. mejo palpak sa signal yun ngayon so i'm using jerick's N2100 (or 2200?). problem is, i can't bring my 6630 to semicon yet. more than 1000 valuable messages pa ang andun and di ko kayang i-pareformat. wah. still have to type all of 'em. *wishin' for a software that recopies messages from phone to pc...* (ericsson ata meron? rawr.)

free lunch---nah---free YELLOWCAB's the best lunch. especially when there are more slices for you than you can eat. thanks, johanna! HAPPEEE BURRRDAYYY!!!

...mag-investigate muna kami ni vinci... babay muna... :D

quickeee

2006-03-29T19:50:00.000+08:00

last day of PE dance.. byebye waltz, swing, and chacha! ay may chacha pa pala sa finals.. next sat i think. we'll be dancing in latin costume at--argh--yuchengco lobby, where anyone can see us. i inquired about the latin costume since i wasn't that comfortable with idea and our prof said: "basta sexy skirt.. maikli kung pwede. sa top, tube...spags..sexy!" HUWAW. manigas sya. lintek magssleeves ako! maybe i can wear what i wore for dana's debut. hihi! parang ang init..

one bad thing with having Feeding Frenzy in my laptop is that i can't seem to use it in peace. since the game's quite easy, kaya laruin ni jerick. eto ngayon at sinusuntok nanaman ako. lalaro na daw s'ya..waaah! baket ko ba pinagmayabang kay jerick na meron ako nito?! babay muna..ikli tuloy ng blog ko. pwet.

ps. waaah! sana hindi sa Holy Week outing ng senior c....

im a pish!

2006-03-28T21:02:00.000+08:00

bakeet?! di ko magets ang SAS sa statpac... friggin program. cguro coz of the many times i skipped class for the campaign. or even when present, mas nakakaaliw kasi ang c++ machine program kaya mas ginagawa ko yun. tomorrow's our quiz in SAS. i've read the handouts but nothing seemed to make sense. it's different when done hands on. oh well bahala na... that's why i'm here in front of the pc now.. don't care nemore sayang lang kung aralin ko at di ko magets. sam! tulong! heheh!

before reading my handouts, i watched spiderman 2 AGAIN. ang kewl talaga ng movie na yun...para sakin. hehe. nakakaluha parin minsan...rawr! ang babaw ko. fave part: "raindrops keep fallin on my head..." so relaxing... AND distracting when you're tryin' to study.

there's this new game i'm currently addicted to: Feeding Frenzy. simple, but yeah..kakaadik. you're a fish and you use the mouse to swim. then you can eat the smaller fishes when you pass them OR get eaten by the bigger ones. dami stages...thanks to kuya norman for it. hehe! i don't know where to download it..i just got the file from his laptop... 11 mb lang ata so pwede sa flash disk. wee! laro muna ko!

mabubusog na naman

2006-03-26T20:15:00.000+08:00

2005-07-27T19:32:00.000+08:00

ang tagal ko na inde nag-blog! tnatamad ako dati eh...

hmm...

10 things i've learned since i-don't-know-when:

1. nakakapagod rin pala magbilyar...nakatayo ka lagi. pero masaya! sana nga lang gumaling ako...

2. looking at the details of your fingerprints can give you a headache.

3. maraming bastos sa mundong ibabaw...

4. masaya gumawa ng good deeds! (minsan lang...)

5. sana di ako masyado naadik sa harry potter....waaaaahhh...book 6!!!

6. ang lamig ngayon ah!. dapat hinaan ang aircon...teka hihinaan ko na...
7. don't buy pirated dvds sold for 3/P100. hmph!

8. hindi na pala tokens and LRT?!

what's groin on

2005-06-16T21:34:00.000+08:00

hmm. haven't blogged for a while ang dami gngwa...hehe! or pag alang ginagawa, bumabawi sa kulang na tulog... but i don't think most people go online anyway... ala ring babasa. nasa kani-kanilang dorms and condos or busy with college rin. like jeg here... was talking to him when i opened my blogger account...tapos nag-babay na sya... saglit lng nagchat... i miss them peeps... buti nalang may mga nagdedebut! hehe! now speaking of debuts..last weekend, i attended meg's and kristine's. syempre, lamon nanaman. haay... kelan kaya matutuloy ang balak kong pagdyedyeta?! masaya naman pareho... reunion narin i like the ambience at Palmier's... nakaka-... hmm...masaya. then dun kay kb...wee! first time to eat a century egg..hehe! parang kikiam lng pala... ang arte naman ng mga nasa Fear Factor! pero siguro kadiri pag isang buong itlog... i only ate a slice.. actually yun nlng natira sakin, galing pa kay alex...hehe tenk yu lex!

so what's been goin on?

college: masaya pala magsipag! mas confident ka and feeling... feeling---marunong. oha. i applied for Malate Literary Folio, prose section. wah! i'd have to say the screening can screen. haha! ang hirap solid ng exam and there were too many requirements. we'll know the results next week pero asa pa ko. kelangan ng 3 sample of prose works and kulang yung sakin so i gave one of my composition papers c/o our very own miss donna rose B. alang kwentang composition...ah basta may requirements! then yesterday i took an exam (still for Malate..Filipino sinagutan ko, wrong choice.) and the questions were about who-wrote-what, vocabulary (so what the hell do "bikakaw", "bilangaw", and "titis" mean?!?!), and facts about prose. puro hula ako at imbento, as was my custom. may bonus questions...isang item dun practical. you have to sing Full House' "Bear Song" in front of all the examinees and examiners in the room. there was one girl who did something like it but she took the English exam and the song's different. kanta sya song sa spongebob. with feelings and actions and the hanging blouse. laughtrip solid!

anyway...

bukas na uli antok na ko...

wee! naka 2 weeks na!

2005-06-03T20:30:00.000+08:00

done with the first two weeks in college...naks! i'm getting used to commuting and crossing what rap calls "deadly taft." haha! ang saya nga tumawid eh... sabi nga ni enzo, "para kang may POWER." let me post my drawing which is so much like what we do everyday...hihi!

see the power? talo pa supehirow! awow! i didn't even touch the jeep! it stopped! `mazin'... pathetic ko. hahaha!

may sinabi nanaman fil prof ko na laftrip... "the pen is mightier than the sword. totoo yun...baket, kung nasa school ang kaaway mo, di ka makakapagdala ng sword. pag ballpen, papapasukin ka parin ng guard! edi pag kaharap mo kaaway mo saksakin mo ng ballpen!" amf... pwede pwede...

filipinos will rule the world!!!

2005-06-01T20:18:00.000+08:00

wahihi...been busy for the past three days..haay... to think na 2nd week palang... astig ng KASPIL(former JPRIZAL) prof ko...sabi nya na dahil sa laki ng populasyon ng pilipinas...kakalat ang mga pilipino sa buong mundo... pag di na daw kasya dito...tapos, halos lahat ng bansa may pinoy na nakatira...kaya we will rule!!! ala lang share lang..haha!

waaah...won't be able to make it to the class gimmick on saturday coz we're going to tagaytay with our family friends...boo... miss ko na kayong mga ulaga kayo!

House of Wax

2005-05-29T20:07:00.000+08:00

woohoo! it's my first time to drive alone to town and back...ginabi pa ko! mack, enzo, and i watched "House of Wax" before going to zobel(Search-In circle 100). indi sya horror...it's a biology movie. sabi nga ni enzo: "it's anatomy." kadiri! body parts everywhere...basta... you know when you watch horror films parang di ka mapakali sa upuan mo? eto iba...nakakasuka. ang dami ko pa naman nakain na magoo's pizza...pero di ako sumuka amf. some parts that weren't supposed to be funny turned out...funny. pero astig naman...hehehe...basta panoorin nyo nalang! (nood muna bago kain...good for your appetite) ;p

pero eto ang dahilan kung bat nanood ang (yung picture sa taas) iba--not me...

nakaka-miss rin ang S.I.. proud to be there at least for a few hours during the 100th circle. i feel so old...and still so short...hahah!

sige sige aral muna ko....hahahaha

3rd day funk

2005-05-25T19:19:00.000+08:00

i gotta love university breaks. we're given a chance to see other HS friends and although i'm used to seeing them, it has never been this thrilling to actually spend time with them and know that it's good for only 2 hours a week. the student council hosted a parokya ni edgar concert and free food in the ampitheater titled "first day funk". it's actually a good way of welcoming froshies and all other college students back from summer's heat. but even with all these happenings, most of us SR-C taft-goers decided to veer away from the crowd into our own little world. it's a different kind of enjoyment for us. =D karyl and i went to UM to meet up with enzo and we ate at House Blend. then we visited karyl and jem's room at "@ home." it's a nice place: cozy and near. tv nalang kulang. hihi! so inabutan namin si jem then after onting chika chika...punta kami ni karyl starbucks dahil andun si mae and arlene... si jem and enzo balik angelo king for a meeting. we met up with mae, arlene, rap, and javy sa starbucks and then checked out arlene and her siblings' penthouse. astig rin dun...then kain nanaman ng luto ng ate nya...tenk yu ahlene!

when we went back to lasalle, parokya's still playing "yes yes show". then umulan na... @ 2:30 we're all back in our respective classrooms...

i never liked religion classes but i enjoy RELSONE. it's really the prof, i guess. really witty, but sensible. ang dami mo mapupulot kaya tinututukan ko ng kinig. and teachers don't really get my attention for long...goldfish utak ko eh. pero tong prof na to astig. makes me feel good to believe in God... =D

philippine history rin astig teacher! ang taray ng prof namin (mejo uhm...pero lalaki sya) at ang daldal. pero mas gusto ko panoorin gestures nya..i'm sure rap wouldn't mind being there to entertain himself. nakakatuwa tlga...

i'm starting to enjoy the company of my blockmates. may mga nagiging close na...cla vinci and jick. sla mga kasa-kasama ko pag breaks except cguro pag wednesday... basta saya!

ay nako...kayong mga magkakatipunan... magparamdam parin kayo ah pag pasukan nyo na! gimmick tayo!!!

a good feeling

2005-05-23T19:21:00.000+08:00

mukang sisipagin ako ngayong kolehiyo..haha! well i'll be forced to. i guess this is one step closer to "real life", haha! preparation na tlga...anyway, the first day's been great. so far, the profs are okay. our Math112 prof looked strict, though, and the subject seemed really fast-paced. we already covered a whole lesson in the remaining 15 mins of the class after she gave her introduction. laftrip naman sya eh...parang si sir llaguno. nakapag-notes ako ng matino, huwaw. hahaha! iba talaga ang nagagawa pag inisip mong yayaman ka sa course mo...

the religion professor--at first-- reminded me of HP 5's professor umbridge. she wasn't even smiling and looked uninterested while praying. very unreligious-like. but when she started talking, we just found ourselves laughing at almost anything. there were times i doubted if she even knew she was being really witty and funny and actually getting our attention... parang si miss reyes..hmm..nakakamiss, hehe!

eto sample ng mga kakulitan na tinawanan ko:

"don't bring very small Bibles...someone brought a really small Bible before and even used a... (makes gesture as if holding a magnifying glass)...microscope! really!"

"if you have no face, you get no grade"

"i'm from ifugao...ifugao's are already becoming educated, so we no longer look like carabaos"

"you can just look at the hanging coffins in sagada. anyway one day, all of us will become coffins"

(time-keeper announces a minute left)"oh we have a minute left? okay let's look at each other" (then smiles and looks around. she was serious)

hehe...baduy, pero mababaw ako eh! hahah! but here's something from her that perhaps i'll never forget: "decisions are very important to make history--to make a story." yeah, i believe so, too. every decision we make changes what would've happened if we had done otherwise...

back to school

2005-05-22T18:48:00.000+08:00

summer's over for me and other taft people. it's back to friggin-pressure-days! well at least for now i'm still excited about it...hopefully di pa mag-lesson dahil pag ganun, ay, sabak na sa gyera...bagong buhay na to! ala ng tamad tamad! hihi! i hope...

day 2 over

2005-05-21T18:22:00.000+08:00

the convocation wasn't so bad...di naman pala mainit kasi saglit lng kami nasa labas... made more friends and at least i think i see now some of the people whom i'd gladly spend my time with(sa block)... mga maloko rin eh! we met a few of our professors...may dalawa dun mukang pasaway kaya baka makakasundo namin yun! hehe! kasi nung iniintroduce sila, daldal ng daldal...ahem.

anyway, alam nyo ba yung instant LOMI? tae! ansarap! lagyan nyo ng cornstarch para malapot-lapot...then toyo...*drool*

sige na...ligo muna ko and we're going to tagaytay...i hope i enjoy my last days of rest there...waaah!!! kita-kita, mga tafters...hihi!

almost there...

2005-05-20T19:40:00.000+08:00

done with day 1 of our LPEP! it stands for Lasallian Personal Effectiveness Program and is what all froshies go through before the actual college thing. the program gave us a chance to get to know our blockmates, whom we would spend our first two terms in dlsu with. okay naman mga blockmates ko...some are really shy, though. but all of them seem nice..mukang walang mga bisho. "good bunch" nga ata talaga college of science. haha! kasali ako dun!

coming from a lasallian school, it's a bit easier to get familiar and be "at home" with the university. i actually felt proud singing the Alma Matter song once again. hihi! nakaka-miss ang zobel!!! lalo na high school friends...

anyway, byebye muna at magpapahinga ko...nakakapagod! the orientation ended 6 pm na... and tomorrows my dreader "corporate look" day. yikes!

2005-05-11T23:32:00.000+08:00

i just had a blast of a day...

isang araw sa LTO

2005-05-10T21:12:00.000+08:00

wee! got my nonpro license...all i need is a little more driving practice with our driver and i'm off on my own! haven't been driving since i lost my student permit before. i had to get a new one and wait a month and finally, the real thing... pero sobrang hassle sa LTO kanina! kulob na room, siksik sa tao, haba ng pila, at walang breakfast...haay.. we were supposed to take two exams: written and practical. fortunately, the jeep we were to drive was not conditioned so they didn't risk letting us newbies use it. instead, the examiner took us outside(thank God. i couldn't stand the waiting room) and asked some questions. this part's quite entertaining...

"Ano pinaka importanteng bagay dapat mong dalin pag magddrive ka ng malayo?"
- "spare tire?"
"Mali. Pera -- pambayad sa pulis."

ang kulit! hehe! anyway after the "practical" exam we were back in the crowded waiting area and stayed for about 30 minutes more. and then i was called for the release of my license. finally!

dreams

2005-05-10T01:15:00.000+08:00

i read through my old blog. it's the one miss punzalan required us to make and was responsible for my stumbling upon blogger.. haha check nyo ang sabog. anyway, we had this topic about dreams(about the only thing that got close to a reflection) and here's what i wrote:

We all dream, don't we? About what? Many things...things you would want to have but in absolutely no way you can get...people you love and wish would love you back but they just damn don't...events in life you would want to experience but just aren't for you...rotten dreams. There's just too much crap to dream of that sometimes you'll just frustrate yourself if you don't achieve 'em. But then again, dreams are what gets me going. I'd like to wake up to each day that there are still goals to look up to, hopes to brighten me up, and yeah, dreams to either make me frustrated, or continue to rise. I guess this crap is really a big part of life, after all...;p

and actually you never know, you might stumble upon something, or someone that'll make you stop and consider your dreams a reality, if not better. ;p

hindi na nasilayan ang araw

2005-05-08T18:51:00.000+08:00

ay. nasilayan naman pala pero 1 hour lang. hahahah! we went to laguna yesterday for a night swimming in one of the private pools that the place is famous for. too bad i'm still not allowed to swim!! buti may videoke at bilyaran pati lechon baka! :D so anyway, we left the place at 6 in the morning (kanina lang). ayun...maliwanag na... and for an hour nakakita ako ng liwanag. kasi pag-uwi ng bahay, tulog!! gising for lunch but i didn't go out to see the sun. hahahaha! tulog uli. gising...uhm...kakagising lang. hehehe! and it's already dark. :(

man, ang babaw ko magblog ang lalim ng title. good evening, y'all!

colehiyo...malapit na

2005-05-07T12:09:00.000+08:00

dlsu-manila's enrollment system isn't at all convenient. the accounting office was PACKED with people and the guard had to make announcements using a megaphone. it reminded me of LTO's cashier windows and waiting rooms...sobrang init! dapat i-aircon yung harap ng accounting office ng lasalle!

hmm...i got my sched and i don't know what to say. haha! ok naman except for wednesdays. grabe 8am - 6pm ako nasa school...may isang subject pa na 3 hours...err... i hope i get to pay attention...ack! May23 is only a few days away...
