LSS OF THE DAY: "FORTUNE FAVORS THE BRAVE"
From: AIDA [Musical]
I wish Adam Pascal was my husband; that way I'd be able to listen to him sing to me every single day
I'M ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!
I've had a very tiring week; I swear, if things get any harder I don't think I'll be able to cope with it.
First: On Sunday, we went to The Block near SM North Edsa; I had Mom buy me three books and I bet you will not believe what I got. "BORED OF THE RINGS", "THE DA VINCI COD" and the music sheet of Les Miserables; okay, the last one was okay but you gotta admit that the first two sounded funny. Then they dropped me off in the dorm since I had to attend that stupid LTS seminar; I had to dress up really quickly 'coz I think I only had fifteen minutes to spare. I speed-walked to the Engineering building (which was like, on the other side of the campus so it was a pretty long walk) and got there at around 3:05. I was so exhausted that I sat down as quickly as possible; but when the roll-call came, I was mentioned so I approached the iunstructor and asked why I wasn't called. She consulted her list once again but she didn't find my name so she told me to go to another room and look for one of the instructors who has the over-all lists. I left and went to the said room but he said that he didn't havve the list so he told me to go to another room and asked the instructor there. I did as he said but when I got there, surprise surprise, my name still wasn't there. So, she told me to go to another room; this time, the instructor in that room had all the lists and I finally found where I should be. I already wasted almost thirty minutes going back and forth from all those rooms. We'll be teaching in Bataan in Febuary.
Then, on Monday, while I was in Netopia and Tony was plugged on the PC, when I took him out, ALL MY SONGS AND VIDEOS were gone. I was so upset; Tony was one of my links to civilization! I had almost 2,000 songs and a lot of videos; ALL GONE. But luckily, I saved some of the songs so I asked one of my classmates to transfer them for me. I'll just have to download the rest later.
Tuesday, during P.E., we had to learn how to pass the ball with our heads (I'm taking up football with my friends); it hurt as first but as we got used to it, it wasn't so bad. But my head hurt so badly on my way back to the dorm, along with my back, legs and the upper part of my arms. Later in the afternoon, I was sitting outside the classroom waiting for the freshmen to come out when I saw one of my old friends; we talked for a while before he went up the stairs. I missed him. When the people in the classroom came out, I went in with my friends but as soon as I sat on my chair at the back, the PA did its annoying opening tune. At first I thought that they could be praying the Angelus but then I realized that it was almost one in the afternoon; the Angelus was said at twelve. Then someone announced:
"Attention, may we request all students, faculty and personnel to be please evacuate the building and proceed to the pavillions in front".
I was surprised but I immediately grabbed my bag and followed everyone out of the room. I felt my phone vibrate in my bag but I didn't take it out since we were still walking and there were a lot of people so I couldn't risk dropping it when someone bumped into me. Once we were outside with Sarah, on of my friends, we frantically searched for the others; when we couldn't find them I thought of texting them so when I got my phone I read the message someone sent me earlier. It was one of my classmates, and friend, Janel, who said that there was an earthquake. An earthquake? No way! I didn't feel a thing; and from the look on Sarah's face after I told her, she didn't either.Then our ABSC president came by and told us to go to the Plaza Mayor where all of the AB students are assembling. We went there and talked with a few more people, asking if they felt the quake; some of them did, some of them didn't. We managed to find our other classmates and we wiated for any further announcements; we even took pictures just to kill the time
So many people; Meg and Sarah goofing around
We thought that classes were going to be suspended but they resumed it anyway; darn
Wednesday, quiz in Statistics and PhilHist. After class I attended the Pax Romana choir practice; it's been awhile since I attended because of all the stuff we've been doing. I really missed it there. Made a lot of new friends too. We finished around six; on my way out, Kuya Sherwin saw me and called me over. He told me some stuff and he asked if I was available next Tuesday; I said yes, so he asked if I wanted to join the exposure trip to Bilibid. Naturally, I said yes; it may be a prison, but the memories from last year's trip there came flooding back and I really wanted to go there again. He said I could invite one of my classmates. Then we talked for a while longer nefore leaving. It was also about this time that I decided that I will not audition for Moulin Rouge; my colds aren't getting any better
Thursday, we had our reporting in English and we were required to dress up in corporate attire; I had to ask Hazel if she could lend me some since all my other stuff is in Dagupan. She said we did very well, and I think we did okay. At least we're done. And, yeah, the whole coup d'etat thing. I asked my Mom if she could pick me up from the dorm and to immense surprise, she agreed. I only knew about the whole Trillanes thing when my Dad texted me; I asked Meg to fill me in on it. When I got to the dorm, I waited for Mom. After about an hour or so, she went up to my room; I asked her why didn't she just text me? Turns out that I haven't been recieving any of her messages for the past half hour. She told me that we had to get out of there as fast as we could because they imposed a curfew. Needless to say, I was silently panicking while we were on the road; there was no way in hell that I am going to spend a whole night in a police station if we got caught. And guess what? We passed through the last check-point at exactly 11:59; how cool is that? So, yes, we were spared.
Thank you to the people who were texting me that night and to those who tried to keep me calm
Now I'm home and I'm hoping that there wouldn't be another seminar on Sunday.
I really hate being sick
I can't believe how stubborn he is! I WANNA KILL HIM!
Okay. If that's the way she wants it, so be it.
I saw someone last night when we were in one of the restaurants along the Expressway; she looked so--familiar.
So far, I haven't had any weird dreams and I've been sleeping very well for the past few days. Usually I wake up in the middle of the night or early morning a few times but not any more. I hope it stays this way
I've written about twenty-five pages of my story in one of my notebooks. Now I'm getting a major case of writer's block. Darnit
Martina McBride's music videos of "God's Will" and "Concrete Angel" made me cry. Watch them yourself: Concrete Angel, God's Will.
Alright, best be off. I have a lot of downloading to do

LSS OF THE DAY: "ELABORATE LIVES" (Reprise)
From: AIDA [Musical]
Don't look at me that way
This is my first post using my new URL: http://nightwishesofadaydreamer.blogspot.com
Why did I change it? Simple. Some people don't know the purpose of a blog. They think that I'm giving away everything; but that's the point: this blog is supposed to be my outlet. And you know what hurts the most? My own family's suppressing me; I know, bad for me
Why is my new URL like that? I dunno. I was thinking of a good URL last night and that was the first thing that come into my mind. I'm a self-confessed day-dreamer, that's all I can say because honestly, I really don't know how I came to think of that
So, I'm not telling any of them my new URL; only my link-exchanges know about it.
Anyway, my sister and I watched "ENCHANTED" and I loved it! It's so cute! Go watch it!

I'm leaving for Manila tomorrow with my sister, Mom and Doc. Darn LTS
I have a project to do. Update again soon.

LSS OF THE DAY: "HOW I KNOW YOU"
From: AIDA [Musical]
You know as well as I do that I'm never gonna stop obsessing over musicals, right?
It's been an interesting week but the highlight of it was:
I TOUCHED A CADAVER!
Yup! You heard me! And it was so cool! I wanna do it again
Lots of work to do. I hate secomd semester; the hardest subjects are usually there
I forgot to mention in my previous post that I had three dreams in just one night; well, morning to be exact; I kept on waking up so I wasn't able to finish all of them. The first one involved Romeo; I can't remember which one of us was leaving but he kept on saying "It's not fair". I was curious, I wanted to know what it meant.
The second dream (right after I fell asleep again), it was raining, and I was standing on a ship. And to make things a little more weird, Orlando Bloom was standing beside me and Johnny Depp was somewhere there ordering people around; I was in Pirates of the Carribean. Another ship was chasing us and they were pelting us with cannon balls and--arrows? Who uses arrows in a thuderstorm during a ship-chase? So, anyway, Orlando (or rather, Will Turner) got hit and I had to take of the arrow and try to stop him from losing a lot of blood; he woke up awhile later, and so did I. I would have loved to finish that dream
Third dream: We were in a huge house; it was abandoned but then we weren't really sure if the real owner of the house was still there or not; in other words, dead or undead. You get the picture. We were lookig for something so we searched through the whole place; we even had some police guys accompany us; big guns and all. We went to the top floor to search the room of the "owner"; it was locked so we had to use the spare key we found somewhere. When it opened, we stepped inside and I saw that the electric fan was on; I remember telling my companions nervously that we should hurry. After a few minutes, I stepped out of the room and there was a flight of stairs behind me; all of a sudden, I heard a creak. I looked down quickly, only to find that a cat was passing by. I sighed in relief but then something strange was moving from my peripheral vision; a hand was creeping up the railings of the stairs and then I saw a person; all I thought of at that moment was to warn my companions because I was staring into the evil eyes of the pwner of the house. I waved my arms frantically because no sound was coming out of my mouth; I finally managed to blurt out: "She's here!" before waking up. It was then I realized that I actually screamed it; my heart was beating so fast that I was afraid that it would fall off or something. And then I prayed that my room mates didn't hear me; thank goodness one of them was fast asleep while the other one was taking a bath at that time. Whew!
Wierd, huh? But it keeps my life interesting
I'm coming down with the colds. Darn it
I'm planning to audition for Mediartix some time next week. Wish me luck
First seminar for LTS is on Sunday, 3-4 in the afternoon. Grrr

LSS OF THE DAY: "WRITTEN IN THE STARS"
From: AIDA [Musical]
I'm back to this again; sorry guys
First week of school was okay; I mean, sure we've been loaded with stuff to do already, and some of our professors are just down-right boring and then we've got a mini-thesis to do for Statistics (what was she thinking?!), but other than that, things are okay. Just another day in the life of a college sophomore in the University of Sto. Tomas
We attended a seminar hosted by the Behavioral Science Federation in Marikina; I had a blast! I made new friends from UP Manila and De La Salle University, had a lot of fun with the activities and I even have a little crush on someone (hush, hush!). We stayed there over-night and the guy who owned the place had a pool and a jacuzzi! I took a LOT of pictures and here are just some of them:
The participants from UST and UPM
I'm sitting on Kuya Martin's chest; part of the activity
Kuya Ryan had to lift me to cross to the other side. Poor guy. Hahaha!
Sleepy me
More pictures on my MULTIPLY
Look at Simon's new hairstyle!
Love it!
PLAN A: FAILED. Gotta make Plan B.
Look how flooded it got in front of my dorm last Thursday
Sorry, I'm out of stuff to say.
'Til next time!
