over my gawddamned head

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

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

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

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

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.."

enjoying an hour for myself

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!

lamang lang si pbb dude ng onti..hahahah!


frustrated artist. i made the layout for the website of Lami 2106 Inc. click here to view--> Inca's Papas

in need of..

1. some time for myself
2. sleep
3. h20
4. gym time
5. chocolates
6. more memory space
7. patience
8. money
9. creative juices
10. a time-stopper!!!

LSS: do you have to let it linger?

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

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

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!!!

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...

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

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

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!

8:52pm:

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!

10:00pm:

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.

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!

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.

one tree hill 4 epi 10. yey! my download's done just now! nood muna ko...

takas lang

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.

Current tune: The First Cut is the Deepest - Sheryl Crow

...but if you want i'll try to...

the world has come between us...

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!

Current tune: Breakfast at Tiffany's - The Wallflowers version

...our lives have come between us...

i dare you...

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
rach: hahahahha
_ _ _
enzo: pinaglihi ka ba sa keyboard?
rach: indi, bkt?
enzo: kc type kita
_ _ _
enzo: sa tae pinaglihi ka?
rach: baket?
enzo: d kc kita mapigilan?
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.

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.

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.

...to move like today never happened before.
