LSS OF THE DAY: "LOVE HEALS" FROM THE MOVIE, RENT

Do I really have to say it again? You people should know me by now



Exams are on Monday! AAAAARRRGGGHH!!



Hectic week. As always. But we didn't have classes last Wednesday (because it was St. Dominic's feastday) and on Thursday because of the storm. We made headlines when the flood reached up to the knees right in front of UST. We're always the first ones in Manila to get flooded.



I cried a river for two whole days. You know why? Love issues. Again. I broke up with Romeo on Wednesday because I thought that that was what he wanted, then he said that he didn't want us to break up even though we were already broken up. Then I asked him if he wanted us to get back together then he said that he'll think about it. The next day, he said that he decided that it was better that we should just stay friends. I was crushed, of course, so I complained my ass off to him. When I finally gave up and decided that it was better if we just cut off all communication, he said that he couldn't do it. He said that he was already trying to forget about me but he couldn't. So he asked if we could get back together. I said that I'd think about it. Then I said yes. End of story. I'm okay now.



We watched "BLADES OF GLORY" this afternoon. So funny!!



My cousin sent me this e-mail. You gotta read it!

LSS OF THE DAY: "TODAY FOR YOU, TOMORROW FOR ME" FROM THE MOVIE, RENT

I'm not gonna stop and you know it



It's been one hell of a week and I got so much to say to you all!



MONDAY, JULY 9 - I don't remember a lot about what happened during class but I do remember what happened after class. I was so hungry when we got dismissed so I dragged Meg with me to Dapitan where I ate in Chowking. Iris joined us after awhile. Then we went back to school because Meg had to accompany Kuya Lawrence in the AB Debate booth for the Org. Fair. We hung out there for awhile, talking, laughing, taking pictures of Sir Olivar; and then, I saw Kuya JC coming out of the building. I swear, I wanted to jump and scream. He's gotten a little thinner but he still looks good. I could only imagine how red my cheeks were at that time and Meg and Iris' didn't make it easier with their teasings. When he was gone I was able to breathe a little. Then we saw Dylan Ababou on our other side! I went nuts! I asked Meg if it was okay if she would ask him to have his picture taken with me. I was shaking like a leaf when I approached him. He was so tall, and so cute. We were so close to each other, and I mean really close.

Me was very happy. He even thanked me!. So anyway, after that "Ababou craze", we all turned our attention to Kuya Lawrence. Then Janel came by and she was hysterical; she likes Kuya Lawrence. Actually, she's liked him since he became our classmate in PGC last semester. She was shaking so badly and her hands were going cold; even Kuya Lawrence showed a little concern which only made her go crazy even more. After while, he left and Sarah and Mau came by. Took some pictures and stuff before heading home.
That night, I talked to Romeo. At this point I got a lot of explaining to do. When we broke up a few months ago, I thought that it was really over between us; my world came crashing down when we broke up and I was unconsolable. The reason for our break-up was pretty clear; he didn't want us to be so far apart from each other and I understood that. Long-distance relationships are pretty hard to maintain. Then he asked if I could wait until the time that he graduated and when he would move to Manila, that way we could be closer. I said that I'd try; but that night, I don't know, I just felt as if I couldn't take it anymore. I've been debating with myself for the past few weeks on whether or not I should let go. But ultimately, I made my decision. I told him that I was letting go; it broke my heart to say it, but I had to. He didn't want me to let go so he asked for another chance. Another chance? I didn't know what else to say so I told him that I'll think about it.



TUESDAY, JULY 10 - P.E. day. It was so tiring! But we had more fun this time than the last time. Our professor gave us easier stuff to do, so thank goodness for that!. Again, Richard was just on the other side of the court and he kept looking at me; probably looking for an excuse to tease me. I went straight to the dorm after P.E., took a nice cold bath, then went to the library to do some research about our report in English. I left a little earlier than the others because I was supposed to meet Sarah in Jollibee for lunch. Then went back to school, classes, classes, classes. While we were waiting for one of our professors to come in, my friends surprised me with a belated birthday gift. They all gave me messages and compiled them; Meg even drew a cartoon version of me.

If only I look that good in real life...

I was really touched with the stuff they said and I'll never forget that day. They really surprised me; Meg and Sarah left the classroom for awhile so Iris, Janel and I stayed behind. When they came in I didn't even notice that Meg was hiding it behind her back; I didn't even suspect anything when she passed me and did a complete rotation around me (she was hiding it behind her back so I wouldn't see it). Finally, she sat down and beckoned all of us to come nearer. She laid it face-down on her lap so I didn't know what it was. I thought it was a poster for a student organization or something but when she finally gave it to me, I read it over and over again just to make sure that I wasn't going blind or anything. And sure enough, that was it. I was in tears when I realized that they made it for me. I love those guys. I am gonna love them forever. When Mark passed by he asked what was all the fuss about; when Meg told him he was like, "Oh yeah! Your birthday! I totally forgot!"; then he gave me a hug. Oh well. Better late than never. Our professor in Psychology got in really late; the rule there is that if the professor doesn't show up after 30mins. (for MWF classes), the class president must go to the Dean's office and ask if the professor is absent, if he/she is, then we have a whole free period to ourselves. But if its a one hour and 30-min. class and the professor doesn't show up after 45mins., we do the same thing. It was already well past 45mins. when she came in. Darn it. It was raining when we got out so I had to run and jump all he way to the dorm. I got a little wet but I didn't mind.
Talked to Romeo again. I told him that I was going to give him one last chance. If he messes up again, it will be totally over. Then I asked him what he planned to do now that he got his chance; he said he wanted to make up for lost time and for the mistake he did a few months ago. In other words, he wanted us to get back together. I thought really hard about that so I kept him talking while I was thinking; I asked him what about his girlfriend, he said he already broke up with her. I asked about the "distance thing", he said that he'll make it work anyway. I kept on stalling until I ran out of stuff to say; until finally, all I could say was, "YES". This time, I'm not going to take our relationship seriously. I took it too seriuosly before so that's why I got really hurt. But if I take it lightly, I won't get as hurt as before. I know I'm being stupid for agreeing to be his girlfriend again, but hey, I'm a hopeless romantic. Whatever the outcome, it'll be my fault and I won't spend my time wallowing in self-pity when we break up again. I've become stronger since we broke up so I know that I won't get broken that easily. When it comes, I'm ready for it. This is my problem and no one else's. So if you have anything negative or positive to say about this, please let me know; I could use a little laughter right now



WEDNESDAY, JULY 11 - I bought a new scientfic calculator becuase my old one was causing me a lot of trouble. Then me and Janel ate in Jollibee (yes, again) before going to school. After class, Mau accompanied me to the Health Service because I wasn't feeling very well; the results are okay, nothing serious. Mau was even making his own diagnosis while I described to him what I was feeling; surprisngly what he said and the doctor who checked on me said were not that far apart. We went back to the AB building after that and went to the Guidance Office where Meg and Sarah were taking their personality tests. We had a lot of fun while talking to Ma'am Shake. We even made a new friend from the other section named Jo. She joined us when we went to Jollibee (again!) after we left the Guidance Office; and you know what? WE stayed there until almost 7 in the evening! We arrived there around past 4 and left really late. WE were having so much fun! We even stalked Sir Olivar. I'll put up the link at the end of the post. We found out from Jo that the first years now wrote a hate letter to Professor Dalangin (our professor in History and Geography last school year and one of my favorite professors there); how dare they! When I find out who did that I am gonna wring that person's filthy little neck and choke the life out of him. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY has the right to talk crap about Sir Dalangin. And if they drae to do it again, they won't just be hearing from me, but from my other classmates as well.



THURSDAY, JULY 12 - I attended my first meeting on THE FOCUS. It's the official newsletter of Behavioral Science and they recruited me to be one of their staffers. I had a great time; we were laughing and joking around while some were actually doing some of the real work. I wasn't really familiar with the stuff that they were saying so I just stayed out of it. After that me and Meg ate in San Mig beofre heading off to the library. We ran into Sarah and Mau and Sarah joined us becuase Mau had a class to attend. We went to the Filipiniana section because Sarah had to research for her report in Rizal. Our classmate, Mark Anido, was there reviewing for our recitation in Natural Science. I asked him if he could accompany me in looking for the book that had everything we needed to know that was sure to come up in our recitation. So we went down two floors to the Science and Technology section but the book wasn't there so I had to look for another one. I had it xeroxed then I read it. We went down for lunch when it was already 12pm. Classes, laughtrip in Philo and stuff. And Sir Olivar made me cry. All becuase of one darn question. I was so pressured to answer it but I really had no idea what he was talking about. I looked at my classmates and I could see that they didn't understand what he was saying either. I guess I couldn't take it so I let it all out through my tears. I'll do better next time even if I have to read every single book in the library. Just wait, Sir Olivar. You think you know everything just becuase your a professor, but just you wait...
At least one good thing happened; we didn't have Psychology because our professor was absent. As for History, I am so not liking it. Mainly becuase of the professor. She talks to us as if we're a bunch of kids! And everytime she talks, she sticks her tongue out. That kind of stuff distracts me from the lesson! Urgh! I want Professor Dalangin!



And finally, today. I'm in Dagupan right now. I'm gonna watch Harry Potter with Kathleen adn the other seniors in the morning. I can't wait! I hope its good. I've been getting mixed reviews about it so I'll just have to wait and see

LSS OF THE DAY: "MY GIRL" BY THE TEMPTATIONS

I really don't know how that song got in my head in the first place!

It's been an interesting day. Raphael came over this afternoon because he wanted me to teach him how to deliver a speech. He said it was for his finals in English or something. I couldn't say "no" because, well, he's my friend, and I owe him A LOT. After I gave him a few pointers and correcting his grammar and pronunciation, we sat back and relaxed. We talked for a very long time; about our other classmates, about the future, about past relationships, and a lot more. It feels really great to just sit down and chat with an old friend.

PICTURES!

Funny, huh?. I really miss hanging out with that guy. We're planning to watch "SHREK 3" together when it comes out. But if we can't watch that, then maybe we'll see "PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: AT WORLD'S END" instead, and I can swoon over Orlando Bloom.

Ladies and gentlemen, I would like you all to meet my adorable cousins:

JAIME, AND HIS SISTER, SOPHIA

They're sooooooooooooooooooo cute!.

LSS OF THE DAY: "YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE" PERFORMED BY JORDIN SPARKS ON AMERICAN IDOL

The American Idol finale draws ever nearer. I'm so excited!. It's now down to two: Jordin Sparks and Blake Lewis. I was kinda expecting Blake to be voted off last Thursday so I was really surprised when Melinda got voted off instead. Shocker. But I really shouldn't be surprised that much. I mean, she's okay and all that but she a bit--uhh--old-fashioned. Not hip like Jordin or Blake. Jordin's young and she's so bubbly that people just can't get enough of her. And Blake, wow! His beat-boxing's the best!. I think Jordin will win. But we'll just have to wait for next week.



Wow. I've just been tagged by two people. And the thing is, they're tags are completely different topics! Hahaha!

The first tag is from PLUGINBABY; he was the one who tagged me about the ADDICTEDness thing. When I read his tag on his post, I was really thankful that it was easy. Thanks, dude!. And now, my answer to his tag:

The rules are, list out 6 websites that you often suff upon opening your web browser. And the 6 places where I love wasting my bandwidth are :

*YAHOO because it's my default browser and because I always check my mail first before I do anyting else.
*FRIENDSTER OR MULTIPLY. When I check my mail, I see if I have any updates on both of my accounts and I go there right after I sign out of my inbox. Sometimes I only have updates on Friendster so I don't bother in checking my Multiply.
*BLOGGER. Of course, for my updates and for viewing my blog.
*OTHER PEOPLE'S BLOGS. I go blog-hopping once in awhile when I'm not feeling lazy. But everytime I go online, I always read five or six people's blogs.
*YOUTUBE. I especially like going to this site after an episode of American Idol so I can watch their performances again.
*FANFICTION. I love to read other people's stories. I get inspired by some of them to write my own story, which I will discuss more about a little later on.

Now, I will tag these people:
*Janel
*Cha
*Pepe
*Kathleen

. This one's pretty easy, too.

Each player of this game starts with 6 weird things about you. People who get tagged need to write a blog post of their own with 6 weird things, as well as state the rules 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. I TALK TO MYSELF. Yes, I do. When I've got nothing else to do, I talk to myself. Sometimes, when I'm walking down the street, I whisper stuff to myself and I answer back. I say my thoughts aloud and I'll even comment on what I just said. Weird enough for you?

2. I PREFER BEING ALONE THAN SPEND TIME WITH OTHER PEOPLE. I'm sorta anti-social. I've always been anti-social. Enough said.

3. I NAME INANIMATE OBJECTS. I named my iPod, TONY; I named my digicam, TORI (actually, my sister suggested that name when I told her that I was gonna name it); I named my bag, FUZZY, because it had one of those thumb-sucking monkeys hanging as a keychain. Do I have to say more?.

4. I THINK SHOPPING IS A WASTE OF TIME. I don't like shopping. Some people find it strange, even bizarre, that I don't like to shop because I'm a girl. So what? I don't mind shopping for maybe one or two hours, but a whole day of shopping? No way! I apologize for the "shopaholics' out there. Please don't hate me.

5. I LIKE EVERYTHING THAT HAS MINT ON IT. Mint chocolate, mint ice cream, mint shakes. Everything Mint!. I remember that I ate nothing but mint ice cream when I was in the States. Aside from Cookie Dough flavored ice cream.

6. ALL MY STUFF IS BLACK. The pouch where I put my cellphone is black (but my cellhpone's color green), my iPod and its case is black, the case of my digicam is black, my wallet is black (so when you open my bag and look inside, it appears that I didn't bring anything because the interior is also black), and I prefer wearing black t-shirts even if its really, really hot. I hardly wear colored shirts; but when I do wear them, that usually means that I'm out of black stuff to wear.

The people I'm gonna tag are:
*PluginBaby
*Marijuana
*Fiona
*Gretchen
*Iris

0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0



I hate it when people think that I "copy" what they like. So what if we like the same things? Is that wrong? Geez. You people can be so super-sensitive about this stuff.



I have made as story blog! Check it out and please leave comments; flames accepted.

STORY BLOG

I just heard from my Mom awhile ago that Benjie Lim, who ran for Congressman in our district and lost to JDV, said that "his life was in danger bcause he ran against JDV". What the hell?!. That's ridiculous! The people don't care about you anymore! You're the one who keeps on saying stuff and then you suddely turn on him again? When will you stop? JDV does not have a history of violence and now your starting a fight. Why? Can't you just accept that you lost? Can't you accept it gracefully? You're the one with the goons, he has nobody to protect him like that. He doesn't give a damn if he gets killed, but you? Your crazy! You didn't deserve to win. Who would listen to you, anyway? I don't think that even your followers will listen to you; they were only "supporting" you so they could get your money. How blind can you get?



Deep breath. Okay. That's enough. I don't want to continue.



I'm sleepy now. I still have to finish the first part of my story.



Buh-bye!
