peel, peel, peel.

met 9 of my participants today. im soooooo excited, its not even funny. haha. really, this is just the thing i need to get back to my old self.

this summer's turning out to be... eye-opening. really. i feel like im watching myself become someone else. and whether thats good or bad, i still dont know. all i know is that: the things i used to love doing.. seem really shallow now. and the things that i used to have strong feelings against.. seem okay naman pala.

yeah, i know. weird.

hello, people who read my journal.

if anything, the past few weeks have made me even more grateful for the people i have in my life.

tessa and bianx, i super love you guys, you know that

went home with cholo yesterday and just spent quality time with his family. and we even picked the girls up from school since they just came from their overnight leadership training in bataan. i love spending time with them, and cholo's mom and i super get along. to the point that we were ganging up on him na, telling him na puro siya gimmick. haha. love.

things have been getting better and slowly (super slowly) going back to normal. as can be expected...

i'd have to say that this year is definitely not turning out to be anything like i imagined it to be AT ALL. and believe me, even though its only may, i can say this wholeheartedly.

here's to hoping my luck changes soon. please, please, please Jess..

i need one-on-one time with Him badly. thankfully, ctk13 is coming up in a week. hala, ree... panic time. haha, kidding hun

how psychotic is it that i cant wait for school to start? anything to take my mind off things. and i've come to the realization that i need to actively take part in bringing the old tums back.. so yes, i've decided im going back to Danzmove this school year. i dont know exactly how it'll go, if i have to try out again or whatever, since i just went on loa from the org.. but yeah, if i do need to try out again, thats perfectly okay with me. more challenge nga, which is good

random.

how funny is it that ym really does bring people closer together?

or that you get to talk to people you wouldnt normally have had the chance to?

message from Jess talaga, right now im super deadset on going back to Danzmove and all, and what do you know! the ex-president ym-ed me last night, making kuwento. so when i told her that i was going back to the org, she was super encouraging me.. which made me even more determined to go back. galing talaga

and then, just a little while ago, my brother's ex-girlfriend (from long, long ago) messaged me, just to say hi and ang pretty ko daw. yes naman.. haha. nice lang that people go out of their way to make you feel special and remembered

yup, this is me babbling. boredom sucks.

Currently listening to: too little, too late.
Currently feeling: blah

im loving 'kaladkarin girls', real people, and boylet kuwentos with tessa 4th year days all over again, times ten. because now, we've been through much more together and thats just the best thing about our friendship. comparing notes uh-huh

and karla will always be the one i'll run to for ANY kuwento. thats how much i trust her.

and bianca? even all the way from australia, she'll call me up and text me just to see how im doing. best friend talaga. i love you bianx!!! june's near na, counting the days...

also, thank you ree, kringy, tims, loi and hasna girl friends are the best. ree, special mention just because youre someone im so, so, SUPER thankful to have gotten close to. i love you!

who woulda thunk it? haha .. that all this could make me realize just how much i LOVE my friends? (and how much they love me?)

this week COULDVE been our bora week....

asaksjdhaboid. asidhaugdubgs. asoiudyoibyiowy.

yeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhh.

of course, if it had been, i'd be going to bora all sunburned and with my skin peeling. so yeah, guess Jess has His reasons.

******

watched Spideyboy with Tobey este Cholo (haha) yesterday. it was.. so-so. i was bored in some parts, and it was so funny, in the parts where MJ was fighting Peter, i was literally cursing along with her. haha, feel ba masyado? kessa, can relate tayo? haha

im getting sick of Eastwood na, considering we're there like twice a week. thank you, Days powwows.. there was a time before when we lived in White Plains pa and Eastwood was our emergency place. like if we needed to buy anything, or we were hungry, Eastwood was the place to go. now, its Greenhills. what would we do without malls?

******

fo shizzle ma dizzle fo sho yo tims! ayt ayt.

tums is bored and rambling yet again.

this is what happens when you stop doing certain things that used to keep you occupied for hours on end. ahemMULTIPLYahem.

******

because of yesterday, every other time is stuck in my head.

high school days! the best, i swear.

when life was still.. relatively uncomplicated. and i was perfectly happy just going out, having fun, boy-watching (hahahaha), and being with my friends.

of course, i would like to forget nights in ateneo high school with me in a tube (hu-what?).. haha, tims! yes i know, ang labo.

i miss i3 and barkada sleepovers where we wouldnt do anything but eat tapa king and talk about our(?) boys. and high school parties where everyone seemed to have the ultimate goal of getting crazy drunk. and nights out dancing with white lights.

******

i was unearthing old, ancient files burned on cds and i found the infamous 'mahal mo ba si celine?' sound clip.

good times, good times.

when im feeling down, or im just plain pissed or angry, all i have to do is listen to that. its the best pick-me-upper.

and i always have to laugh when i hear mike sobrang tawang tawa in the background.

classic.

******

true light 7 in.. 3 weeks and one day.

ctk13 in.. a week and a day.

and then there's ydwtl in between.

nothing like days weekends to recharge you.

bil.

if a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. if he doesn't, nothing can make him stay. never let him know everything, he will use it against you later. he is a man, nothing more, nothing less. you should never look for someone to complete you. a relationship consists of 2 whole individuals. make him miss you sometimes, when a man always knows where you are and knows that you are readily available, he will take you for granted.

its so ironic that i've had more realizations and life lessons in the past three weeks, than i've had in the past three years.

growing up sucks just because youre made to face things you arent sure you can handle.

dont mind me, im just typing whatever thought pops into my head. iba na pag walang kausap haha

scratch that, i have ree, tessa, bianx, karla, kringy.. and the list goes on and on. yeahboi. love you friends

i like staffing in DLSU. theyre so maayos, and so accomodating and friendly, and there's just such a good atmosphere there. plus, its a college and older crowd, which is a huge difference from ctk, truelight, poveda, and ac haha time to grow up!

im not a drama queen but i think lately, i've just been so.... madrama. so yeah. hope that ends soon.

its so sad though that after 5 years, kami nalang ni karl natira. *tear* and in the beginning, we were all so active! ctk02, we were mostly complete staffing. and all those powwows and recharges, our batch was always present..

the first few months of a relationship, with all the kilig first-time hand-holding and sweet texting and all the mushy pick-up lines, are the best and its so funny how im so caught up in someone's new.. relationship that im getting kilig as well haha and im the one who keeps reassuring her to be less praning and just enjoy! and yes, can i just say that ALL my predictions so far (about the guy and the progress of their love story) have been coming true? ang galing ko, swear. hehe...

i cant believe kringy's leaving na on friday! *teeeeaaaar* im gonna miss her A LOT. everyone will, im sure. its so sad when people start leaving to go abroad for school, or work, or whatever. its especially sad when youre the one left behind..

ctk13 is in two days. wow. i super miss staffing for ctk days. there's nothing like being in your own community.

summer is winding down and yes, i cant believe im actually thankful that it is. i cant wait to go back to school and just be busy again. busy studying that is, haha with all the dwtl weekends that are sunod-sunod, im pretty sure that along with the days high will come the pagod that comes with being super busy. so yeah, wanna keep myself occupied with my studies nalang, plus with (hopefully) Danzmove

so thankfully, my week has been going pretty well. cholo and i had a relaxing monday morning-afternoon together, then we went swimming tuesday, i worked on the boards yesterday, and today, i had breakfast at something fishy with kringy, ree, timsy, karl and lari as a sort-of despedida for kritzia.

that was fun i love you, poveda girls. yes, even if im from assumption, not once did i feel out of place with you guys haha hey, all my closest girl friends are either from ac or poveda! i guess its coz we're all basically from the same background, and we talk alike, and we get along so well. right? haha. im babbling. then after breakfast, went to ctk for a while for pre-weekend fixing up, then cholo picked me up and we just bummed and had lunch at home. relaxing, super. yeay, good week so far

who's excited for ctk 13?? i am. wow, i miss ctk days and allllll the dazers and true light staffers and basta, everyone.

craving for a slow dance. haha. seriously.

true light, shmrue light. haha. i am in denial that the batch is a week and a day away, and we still have like two mountain-fuls of work to do. there were just so many things wrong with that previous statement, pero bakit ba.. this is my journal. haha.

im happy though because Jess, as usual, fixed EVERYTHING. i was literally going out of my mind, thinking that i'd have the smallest true light batch, that we wouldnt get xavier, and that there would be ZERO staffers. but, as i said, He fixed everything na. like He always does. galing, super

we're preparing for the 15 babies, and im already so excited. scary excited, yeah. but excited parin yun. im on days-mode na though, thanks to CTK13, so thats good. and there's nothing in the next week that can break my focus. Please Jess, dont let ANYTHING break my focus. promise. this summer has been too gulo already. all i ask is for one successful, happy, GOOD batch. please?

i dont know what feeling this is, but as eventful as my summer has already been, i have a feeling my year is just starting. call me psycho, but i do think something even bigger is gonna happen to me, latter part of this year. and when i get these feelings, they almost ALWAYS come true. sana hindi diba, but yeah.

huhuhu. haha :D biglang ganon eh... i think this is my karma, since last year was SUPER GREAT for me. two great years in a row is just too impossible, i guess.

and when i was talking to tessa, she was saying something that made perfect sense. one crappy year is usually followed by a really good year. good karma follows bad karma.

so does this mean my 2008 is gonna be EXTREMELY HAPPY?? it better be. i deserve it. you have no idea how much.

now THAT was a good weekend.

and it was (technically) the last weekend of summer na for me. so the fact that it was a really good one makes me hopeful about the rest of the 2007.

martin and ray-an's party was fun yes, we were late way early, considering loi and christine arrived before us pa. im glad we got there before everyone else did though, since we had much needed kuwento time. i missed my friends so much! waaaah, i love you guys LOTS, i swear. nothing beats how we can just make kuwento about ANYTHING. <3 <3 <3 we need more nights out! tara, kailan next? loi, birthday mo okay?! you promised na

and i missed the bilog boys (and girls) too! paps and his kalokohans, and marts in his drunken (but sweet haha) state.. it was a good party over-all. and we got to spend time din with cholo's cousin kuya nel, and his girlfriend tyff. so yeah, had a great time trying to dance to house, and finally rejoicing when they played hiphop 

ydwtl29 was this weekend too, and i went back to being a puppy for 3 days  can i just say, saturday night had STRESS written all over it? haha linny and her water spilling definitely eased the tension.. had fun, as usual just doing one of the things i get so much from. and yes, cholo and i had a good long talk with Him, complete with singing together from the songbook. hmmm.. as much as this hurts, yes we are the most sentonado couple EVER. promise. talk about tone deaf. pffft. okay lang, bawi naman sa looks eh hahahahaha

sarap this weekend, i swear. i needed this. and i felt like everything was how it should be, how its always been before things got messy and complicated. i guess, Jess has this way of always making things right in the end. whether or not we see it that way. yeah. yun iyon.

funny kuwento: cholo went to sleep last night with a bonnet over his hair so it wouldnt stand up and be gulo when he woke up... so imagine my surprise when the first thing i saw when i woke up this morning is a guy beside me with THE WHOLE BONNET over his face! haha who are you and how did you get in my bed???!! hilarious. warn me naman before we sleep! haha...
