its SOOOOOO cold :D POSTED AT 04:46 PM all work and no play makes tums... sneezy. sick. and SUPER DUPER tired. i thought concentrating on my studies, reading up, and just not letting myself be distracted would make me more focused in school. instead, i got sick. and not just the usual flu-type of sick, but REALLY sick. that just goes to show you that you should always make sure that everything is balanced. that you shouldnt neglect your social life and your friends. that studying ALL THE TIME isnt gonna cut it. haha. its funny though coz these past few days has gotten me really interested in Psych. finally, after three+ years of my course, after ALL those major subjects, i can truly, honestly say that im happy being a Psych major, and that I can see myself doing this for the rest of my life. weird, but true. it took me over three years to appreciate everything my course has to offer. to finally understand all those damn theories and dead psychologists and stuff. FINALLY. now im psychologizing and psychoanalyzing everything and everyone i come across. haha. go figure. ******* valentines is ten days away. holy moley. time to rack my brain for a surprise shake it.

random shrandom. POSTED AT 10:16 PM wow wow wow, did you guys know that the temperature for Manila today is 17 to 18 degrees? coooooool.... (literally) and that is why it gets harder and harder to get out of bed in the morning. because staying in the warm, cozy bed is a whole lot better than dragging your butt to school for a whole day of lecture and tests and discussions.. oh well, just a few more weeks and summer vacay will be upon us again. thats something im definitely looking forward to :D ********** so after 6 days, around 12 decolgen/ tempra forte/ ornex tablets, and 8 packs of kleenex, im finally better and cold-free! yeeeeeessssssssss. i've always been reminded of that saying, 'feed a fever, starve a cold' whenever im sick. i still dont think either works, and i have absolutely no idea what to do when youre stuck with both. told ya this entry was TOTALLY random. haha. ********** i love, LOVE jennifer garner i also love alyssa milano okay, end of ditzy entry |

ITS A TUESDAY. and im supposed to have THE WHOLE DAY free to bum, rest, pig-out and plant myself infront of the computer. i cant wait to get this English play over with. aside from busting my brain cells memorizing ALLLLLL my lines, i have to still fix my costume. talk about major effort for a minor subject. haaaaayy...... im craving for pizza! and pasta with white sauce.. baby, let's italianni's soon, please? ************ i was watching ETC's very, VERY delayed season of America's Next Top Model last night, and they were showing the contestants' trip to London! which got me super excited for my trip to Europe with my mom okay so our trip is scheduled for summer of 2008 pa but still. im super excited na.. can you believe im already planning what to bring/wear etc? hehehe ************the Valentine's countdown is now at a week and a day and im still stumped. i think im having a surprise mental block.. |

if youre happy and you know it.. POSTED AT 07:05 PM who was a busy bee today? *raises hand* me, me, me started the day with our second to the last play rehearsal, complete with blocking and all the hand gestures/ facial expressions, etc. im sooooo ready to i love our play though, its extremely funny and the characters are easy to relate with. hopefully, we'll be able to perform it really, REALLY well. my groupmates are actually all okay, i cant say the same for me my interviewing techniques class today, went by SUPER duper fast. for once!!! haha :D and i actually listened mainly because she discussed how to work on our weaknesses whenever we're interviewed. i cant help thinking that, as good as i am when it comes to answering questions, i still have those really sablay moments.. my Personality class was... very, VERY interesting so lately, i've been making kuwento how i've been on this HUGE psychology kick and everything we discuss just interests me. today, we discussed dreams, striving for superiority and birth order, three things that Adler tackled in his theory. and it was just so interesting for me because everything that was discussed i could TOTALLY relate to. like how he defined dreams to be the representation of things that, either scare you, or things that you desire. i mean, its so true. unlike Freud who always had a sexual meaning for EVERY possible dream, Adler's theory makes more sense. most of the time, i dream really, really horrible things that in reality, im most scared of. and other times, i dream of super galing things that i could only wish would happen in real life. so there you go, real-life examples of Adler's dream theory with regards to birth order, thats something that i dont think can be generalized. every set of siblings is totally different, their personalities and characteristics isnt something that can be stereotyped. like, they always say that the eldest is the most responsible and the over-achiever, the middle child is the most positive (according to Adler) or the black sheep, and the youngest is the most pampered. how do they come up with these theories? i mean, was there like a guinea pig set of siblings that fit neatly into these little boxes of characteristics? weird.. of course, i do fit PERFECTLY into the 'the youngest' stereotype. haha other interesting things that happened in class were all thanks to the fact that our professor is a doctor. a doctor who just LOVES to give us all these medical lectures, probably hoping that some of us are just taking psych as a pre-med course, and are gonna be attending med school when we graduate.. anyway, his choice of medical expertise to discuss today was in the field of cancer. and of course, he had to bring up his favorite topic of cervical cancer.. the specifics are just too gory (and gross) to talk about here.. ree and timmy, if you guys are reading this, that thing pala that i made you guys kuwento is called benign cystic teratoma... that thing including hair, skin and teeth.. haha, eeeewwwwwww. im super cringing just picturing it!! haha, our prof is cool despite all his panakot medical kuwentos being with hasna and angge during class is fun ******* on to really babaw kuwento.. our cat (who thinks she's a dog-slash-tiger-slash-person), who hates fish and would rather eat meat, moe-moe has been acting really funny these past few days.. she isnt allowed inside the house because fudge might attack her, and lately she's been hanging out on the roof right outside my window! its kinda cute, but its also a bit annoying.. i've been waking up to meows these past few mornings, and not to my alarm clock. maybe i can find a way to program her meowing so she wakes me up at the EXACT time i need to get up, haha |

another one of those 'crammed-into-one-entry' entries :) POSTED AT 02:50 AM havent had the chance to update about what's been going on these past few days, partly narin coz i've been buusssyyyy. haha, feel masyado the deadline for my nstp community service hours is this wednesday and i was literally sweating coz i was so panicked, thinking i wouldnt be able to complete the 60 required hours. THEN someone tells me that staffing for days is counted pala, and so... tada! i now have WAY MORE than 60 hours to slap in their faces. haha. even if i just count the acollege dwtl batches i've staffed in, thats already 5 batches right there! 5 batches x 48 (more or less) hours = a whole lotta hours. add to that ALL the dwtl outreaches and Faith. activities and im done! YIPPPPEEEEE last friday was fun had a super sarap lunch at almon marina with pocholo, and a chocolate mousse dessert after, and did a last minute play-lines-recall with him. then i had to go back na to school for our english play! strrrrreeeessss. the play went surprisingly well though, and even if i fumbled on my lines a bit for the latter part of the play, it was still good saturday night, we all trooped to Teriyaki Boy in greenhills to surprise gianns! our youngest angel finally turns 20 awwww, i love surprises dragged myself out of bed the next morning to watch and cheer for ALL the Faith. teams at the fbl league in the up gym. we were there at 8:30 am and the games lasted until... 4:30pm. NO JOKE. and we had to sit through ALL THE GAMES, skipping lunch. daym. all for the love of Faith. haha... the Faith. girls team was super galing though we finally had lunch at 5pm. by this time, cholo was super cranky na... my baby gets grumpy when he's not fed! takaw kasi eh this week's looking stressful and busy as well, but one thing im definitely looking forward to is our i3 day on thursday! i miss hanging out with my angels and just talking and making chismis and bonding.. then, since its mike and bianca's last weekend in manila, we'll also be going out saturday, this time with everyone else i was waiting for cholo in glorietta during lunch today, and was just browsing and reading magazines in powerbooks and i saw popcorn's sister, ate ken's wedding featured in one of those society magazines. cool, she had her church wedding na pala it was so cute, there was also this feature on two other weddings. the first one was held in bora, and yeah i know it has been done. my cousin nga got married recently too, and his wedding was in boracay. sayang, only the immediate family was invited haha the other featured wedding had a cute love story behind it. the bride and groom met each other at a soiree in high school, and they met again after a few years.. and now they're married na! thats what you call, destiny my afternoon went from really, really good.... to semi-sorta crappy. got stuck with the task of making the english bulletin board beside the psych department, thanks to my professor who promised me extra credit for doing it. gee, thanks for the plus points (and the added work). had the most UNBEARABLE theo period, lets just say im definitely getting a different professor next sem. THEN, to end my school day, i dropped kenzo FOR THE FIRST TIME. on a cement floor. without his pouch. *tear* buti nalang, there's no gasgas or anything... Valentine's Day is in two days! wow, the days flew by so fast.. good thing im done with my surprise plans |

oh, mcdreamy ;) POSTED AT 09:11 AM Meredith Grey: At the end of the day faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. And it's not so important happy ever after, just that its happy right now. See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you , and once in a while people may even take your breath away.
Meredith: Hey.
Meredith Grey: Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big 'pretend to like your taste in music', 'let you eat the last piece of cheesecake', 'hold a radio over my head outside your window', 'unfortunate way that makes me hate you', love you. So pick me, choose me, love me. Currently listening to: say goodbye |

updating because i've been gone lately.. haha. POSTED AT 10:46 AM okay, i havent really been gone gone but i have been absent from the internet world. haha i spent last night just uploading pictures to multiply, a week's worth of pictures that im still uploading right now. geez. when did school become such a sagabal? haha february 14 valentine's day last week was great. it couldve been greater if i didnt have class and cholo didnt have duty and we couldve spent the whole day together, but hey. im grateful nonetheless because it was still a great, kilig, mushy, keso day. yippee woke up and got ready for school, thinking it was gonna be an ordinary holiday when my cell goes off and cholo's telling me to open the door. funny, i was so disoriented pa that i thought he meant my bedroom door! and i was still getting dressed for school so i was panicking haha.. yun pala, he meant the front door. aaaah.... slow tums. so i went down, opened the front door and there was my baby with a really pretty bunch of pink flowers and my favorite chocolates! awwww we had a quick breakfast and then we each had to go to school/the hospital so *tear* we had to go our own separate ways. ngek, drama. im happy we had breakfast together though, it was a great way to start our valentine's day had to rush to school coz we had a talk regarding love and relationships. yup, they really scheduled it on valentines day. how cheesy is that? anyway, i was late and had to sit at the back with olivia. and yes, the whole time we were making all these cynical, patawa comments about the things being discussed. picture this: a marriage counselor was telling us how, if we were currently in a relationship, we should tell our boyfriends to allow us to date around. hello? talk about sane and credible love advice. basically she was telling us to be players! and to be unfaithful! after, hasna and i had lunch together and spent two solid hours together. haha kuwentos with her are the best, i swear had a Valentine's day family dinner that night and it was just a good way to end the day february 15 our parlor/spa day unfortunately got cancelled but at least i still got the chance to have dinner with my inseparable three angels had a yummy dinner at polu kai and bought dessert from cupcakes to take home. and yes, we camwhored. not as much as i would have wanted, but enough february 16 hassle, stressful school day what with having to make the english bulletin board and dealing with my witch of a professor. bad vibes of the day aside, i had lunch with the cutest boy in the world (thats you, baby!) and he waited for two hours till my class ended and then brought me home, and we had dinner as well february 17 had our very, very LAST nstp session (yeay!!!!), one we didnt even bother listening to anymore. i spent more time making kalikot gk and roxanne's phones and laughing at their pictures, than actually paying attention to the lecture. oh well. then we went to glorietta and i met up with my baby. had the funniest pig-out session at home after didnt have anything to do that night, cholo and his best friends kasi had their boys night out/sleep over (yes naman...) so i was just watching tv. and out of nowhere, i found myself watching grey's anatomy. i've only watched one episode so far, and since timmy lent camille the dvds of seasons 1-3, i decided to watch it nalang. daym, im hooked |

continuation of previous entry... POSTED AT 01:42 PM february 18 so yes, instead of finishing my english paper early i decided to procrastinate and watch grey's anatomy the whole day. haha last monday was the most stressful day in my entire junior year in college. no kidding. i felt like my insides were gonna come out due to all the stress. deadlines suck. procrastination sucks. school then, just when i thought everything would be fine, i turn in my novel analysis only to find out that... the folder i bought, the one she specified, the friggin green transparent folder.. was wrong. and she didnt want to accept my sliding one. so there i was, ready to collapse from ALL the stress.. and my baby goes all the way to makati to bring me a folder. one measly folder. thats love right there. cholo ALWAYS does that, he always finds a way to rescue me 31st month and still going strong |

sacrifices and sweets. POSTED AT 05:38 PM yesterday marked the beginning of Lent.. and also my 40-day no chocolates sacrifice. the sucky thing is, i was THIS close to pulling it off last year but NO... somewhere in the last week, i blanked out and ate chocolate cake. yeah, i know. dumb. this year's gonna be different though. i have to focus. and think before i eat! haha cholo and i heard mass yesterday at greenbelt, and the priest was talking about how we should also abstain from making 'negative mental judgments' about people. even random people that we just pass in the street. thats something thats hard to do, considering we always talk negatively about others.. whats gonna stop us from thinking negatively of them right? and so the whole day yesterday, cholo kept reminding me about it. and everytime we'd pass someone in the mall who looked cutie ***** my afternoon class yesterday turned into a major kuwento session.. first with tori and then with hash and angge. tori used to be my batchmate in assumption grade school, then she moved to the states and came back for college na. and the funny thing is, she's still the same. she has that assumption way of talking, and im not referring to the put-on conyo accent that some people adapt after, oh say, three or four years. the genuine 'i came from assumption' way of talking. and when we were making kuwento nga, she was saying the exact same thing. and we came to the conclusion that no matter what batch you come from, as long as you grew up in ac, there's a certain way you talk and make kuwento and gesture. its so distinct, its like you can tell someone's an assumptionist just by hearing them talk. yeah. really. my kuwento session with hasna and angge was, as usual, block-related. details shmetails. i love those girls, theyre the best to talk to ***** so yes this is what, journal entry number four? about grey's anatomy yes, im hooked. obviously. its really galing eh. im not usually the type to like shows and to follow it religiously, etc. but this time, im super into it and its so coincidental that theyre surgeons and.. tada! cholo's dream is to be a surgeon. so im gonna get him to watch it na din since he can learn a lot from it and all. so, in a few years, cholo will be my own personal mcdreamy. haha tims, if youre reading this: they had this one episode where the guy was pregnant, that's what a teratoma is! remember, the one i was making you kuwento about the cells with hair, skin and teeth.. eeeeww, right? |

February 23rd, 2007
its the weekend! hooray for the weekend! POSTED AT 06:55 PM another week has floooooown by. hay... three weeks to go and then i'll officially be.. a college senior? yikes. scary, scary thought. being a college senior means.. thesis (and not just the baby one, the real, major, extremely important thesis that could make or break you) and defense and graduation and graduation pictures (hey, THAT im actually looking forward to okay, this is so premature considering im not even done with third year yet. so yeah, no use in worrying about something thats not even here yet right? ******* so, my classes today were all.. so-so. mostly bordering on the usual, routine boring lectures but seeing as how the year is coming to an end, i've learned to kinda appreciate my classes (kinda being the operative word). something big has been going on with a few people though. as i always, always say, girls can be vicious. its funny but sometimes when things go awry, friendships disappear faster than you can say 'loyalty'. people take sides, barkadas break up and yes, people whom you once thought to be the best of friends, end up bashing each other like crazy. thankfully, i havent gone through any of that. hopefully, i'll never have to. all that's happening right now's so crazy, and i cant help feeling bad for the people involved. the people who are on the other side, i mean. all their friends have left them, theyre being talked about.. hay. vicious, i tell you. so yeah, vicious girls i can sort of stand. as self-centered as it sounds, im not the one theyre against anyway. kleptos, though are another story. thankfully, i've never been victimized by anyone yet but the 2nd year block has been losing things left and right. wallets, cameras, cell phones.. and since im classmates with them for one class, i have to undergo a lie detector test. ??? hassle.. just coz someone lost something in that specific period.. and to think that me, hasna, angge, cam, and lorraine arent even part of their block! hello, im supposed to be conducting psych tests, not taking them. daym. bad trip. just goes to show you how sometimes innocent people get blamed for stupid things other people do. bad trip. |

February 25th, 2007
sssssunday rantssss. and ravesss as well haha :) POSTED AT 08:46 PM its funny how things can seem so messed up and they just fix themselves on their own and everything turns out okay in the end.. its been a tiring and draining past two days, emotionally. i've gone back and forth and been mad, sad, irritated, everything.. but at least that's all over na. i guess thats why they say you have to work to make it work. thats done. and everything's fine now super thanks karl because i can really tell you anything and know that you'll just listen and give me advice. i've been doing that for how many years na? haha after the faith. party at libis last night, we watched epic movie with mikko, ree and tims. what a waste! cholo and i are really malas when we watch movies in eastwood, we ALWAYS end up watching crappy, waste-of-money movies.. (ugh, its all about love?) was laughing for like the first 5 minutes of the movie. then, it just got REALLY bad. then, i fell asleep. heehee. good thing we had buy the bucket! everytime i have that, i remember highschool intrams and how we always had that booth.. today naman, was able to sleep in, and then got to rest. then cholo and i had a lazy afternoon together, then we went to mass. it felt right going to mass with the weekend i just had. Jess always makes everything right. hell month officially starts this week. hello, deadlines, all-nighters and endless time spent studying, cramming and typing away. oh yeah, im so looking forward to this thursday **** to DG: you know, there's such a thing as tact. try using it. you ALWAYS piss people off by saying the rudest things at the worst times. pasalamat ka we're too polite to tell you off. oh yeah. and stop being a drama queen. its not bagay, believe me. and quit talking about people behind their back. thats just wrong. im not saying i dont do the same thing, i just dont diss my friends. |

February 26th, 2007
another week begins. and it'll be march in THREE DAYS. whoa. POSTED AT 09:23 PM my monday was boring. school school shmool shmool the whole day. nothing interesting really happened, just went through the day, mostly bored.. yes, i've slipped back into a 'school funk'. meaning it has become boring and uninteresting again. and just when i thought i was actually enjoying my majors.. i guess its just because there are so many deadlines, and so many more things to do and finish. thats probably whats causing this whole funk. student council election results came out today, but i got the news straight from maj yesterday palang.. galing how their whole party won. or, should i say, ALMOST won. but still, the results were good. im not really big on school spirit (though i was a cheerleader.. haha..), but im not apathetic either. i can say that i actually care who's in the council and next school year's batch of officers seem really good and good old karma bites thunder thighs in her big, fat butt!!! hahaha **yes baby, i know im not supposed to have negative mental thoughts/judgments about people but you know this story. so there, i just had to say that |

February 27th, 2007
random thoughts. POSTED AT 02:08 PM so, i've been posting OLD pics on my multiply again, just because i've recently found TONS of pictures that are lying around here. pictures that i havent uploaded yet, at least. and its just so much fun to look at them and to reminisce about the good old high school days hehe its funny though coz back in high school, camwhoring and bringing digi cams to school werent uso yet. it was only probably the latter part of fourth year that we all decided it was about time to preserve our memories and we started clicking away. so yeah, compared to how i've been acting the past three years (like mauubusan ako ng time to snap away haha), my pictures from high school are really, really little lang. as compared to my million pictures of me, me and cholo, college, and days, that is anyway, its been fun looking at how majorly nene we all used to look, my glasses-and-braces days, prom pics, etc. plus, whenever i see my barkada pictures with vicky, george and micho, its weird to think that they were once just high school girls mugging for the camera. now theyre models still mugging for the camera. nothing much has changed, has it? haha **** DENNY: "Now, I have this heart that beats, that works. I get to be like everybody else, I get to make my own decisions, have my own life, do whatever the damn hell I choose. Now here's the good part, so you listen close. What I choose... is you. You're who I want to wake up with and go to bed with and do everything in between with. I get a choice now. I get to choose. I choose you." awww |

POSTED AT 02:50 PM now these are what you call memories... hahaha

hahahaha. POSTED AT 07:51 PM i dont know why certain people's blogs always, ALWAYS make me laugh. really, no fail yun. when im having a blah day, the best way to cure it is to go to ____'s and ____'s journals and read up on their days. also, i check and re-check _____'s friendster profile coz thats just another one of those 'oh no he didnt' pages. i swear, i dont understand the way other people's minds work. and why they can never seem to form coherent sentences in English. mag-tagalog nalang kayo please... haha mean, mean tums. oh well. ****** my europe trip is more than a year away, and already im super duper excited for it! anyway, as i was saying, im just really excited for it. my mom, camille and i discussed it over lunch the other day, and they were talking about which places we'd be going to. it'll be just my mom and i, but camille was hinting that she wanted to go din.. no way noh! this is my trip haha i cant wait for spain.. i wanna visit a beach there! also, paris, london and rome are sounding super, duper .. galing. haha im excited ****** cholo's been encouraging me to take photography classes, since i seem to be interested in taking pictures, etc. i do want to. i just dont think i'll be really good at it or anything.. oh well, we'll see. maybe when im not so busy with school anymore besides if i become a photographer, it'll be hard resisting the urge to just take pictures of myself. haha. |
