I MISS YOU BLOG! I PROMISE TO BLOG SOON!

KILL ME NOW!

2009-06-04T03:39:00.000-07:00

TODAY IS THE MOST TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE IN MY WHOLE 19 YEARS OF EXISTENCE. THE MOST EMBARRASSING, THE MOST BIZARRE, THE MOST UNFORGETTABLE.
DEAR GOOD LORD, WHY ME AMONG ALL PEOPLE! WHY ME?!

I WANT TO DIE NOW.

Something to think about

2009-05-31T04:18:00.000-07:00

This is a reblog from my Tumblr account (I update there more often) and I just felt like sharing it also here in my blogspot for the sake of sharing and....updating of course :p

mariakatrina said: So yeah. Shame.

asiana said:
FU Hayden Kho. FU senate people taking this seriously instead of the H1N1 virus.

You’d rather blow up and cover (either way) his big stupid pile of mess than stop a virus that could possibly spread more if not prevented soon.

I say this is one idiotic publicity stunt. Sex scandals happen every day, geez. If this were the case, then the senate should make a big deal of every sex scandal caugh on video, no matter how ugly the quality is or how cheap it looks. Paris Hilton’s scandal didn’t reach the US senate when it happened before (mmm, correct me if I’m wrong), so why in the world does our senate think THIS is more important than the H1N1 virus.

Somehow I’m glad I don’t watch the local news anymore since they don’t give out real news anyway.
One Fifth Avenue said:
I am beginning to seriously think about this issue. I think it’s another escapist way of covering the H1N1 outbreak. Yup, that’s how we solve our problems. We bomb malls and review sex tapes. Sobrang nakakawalang pag-asa.

I say:

Very well said people :)

I really agree with this. I mean, why the hell is our dumb Senate people over-reacting (to the most exagge level BTW) with this stupid and idiotic sex scandal issue in the first place anyway? Okay fine, Hayden Kho and Katrina Halili has a sex video scandal, SO THE HELL WHAT?! I mean, haleeeeerrrr it’s not like this is the:

FIRST.VIDEO.SCANDAL.IN.THE.WHOLE.HISTORY.OF.THE. PHILIPPINES., right?

Sure, I don’t really watch the news every single day- I know that’s a bit lame but what’s the point really?- so maybe I’m not really that knowledgeable about this whole stupid matter OR worst, maybe I really don’t know anything about it that's why I don't have any right to talk about it, but when you simply try to understand things with just one look, without overnanalyzing things, everything seems really really really pointless especially when there are helluva LOTS and LOTS of more important situations in our country that needs to be given more attention.

Come on Senate people! Where’s the tiniest shreds of dignity left in you?

Enrollment day

2009-05-26T08:29:00.000-07:00

The enrollment today can only be described by one word: CRAZY.

As the President (ahem) of the class- since I really don’t have any choice- I enrolled 20 people from our class in Section 3. Well actually, the enrollment flow is quite smooth and fine unlike the previous years but what made it crazy is my classmates who are being so demanding and a bit inconsiderate for back-outing the last minute.

But anyway, after all this, what’s important is that I am already enrolled.

Oh my gosh, this got me so nervous already. Senior year, HERE I COME :)

P.S. Spot my new rebonded hair! Yay or Nay? :)

P.S.S. Whoa what a very short post I got here. Well anyway, it's just for the sake of updating really. Will make a decent post SOON. Watch out for that! =)

My 20th Birthday FTW!

2009-05-23T06:23:00.000-07:00

Yes! That’s on MAY 24, 2009. Tomorrow. Sunday.

As much as I would like to be 16 or 17 or 18 forever like Bella or Edward Cullen (hahaha) I know that there is such thing as “reality” and so, like change and dying, I’m pretty much aware that growing a year older is inevitable. Hahaha. So since there’s nothing I can really do about that, I might as well seize the moment and live life as if this would be my last year or last day even!

The whole point in all this is: don’t forget to greet me. Hahaha. Send me your love HERE. Please identify yourselves though if you don’t have a blogspot account so that I would know those nicest people in the planet earth who remembered me on this special day :)

P.S. I will make my bithday update later (dance) I'll be posting it tomorrow. I'm so not in the mood to blog right now so this will do for the mean time. Tamad much? Hahaha. I love you all and thanks in advance! :) :) :)

HIT THE COMMENT BUTTON AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS AND PUT YOUR GREETINGS THERE =)

Loser much?

2009-05-19T00:56:00.000-07:00

In every single update I do for this poor-slash-abandoned-slash-almost-forgotten-blog, the hardest part always (and forever will be, I guess) is how you start it. Arghhh. So how will I start this thing?

Okay, since I have no idea really, let me start it the- Meredith-Grey’s-way: I’m screwed.

So for a quick glimpse of the past… Let me see… It was November of last year since my very last decent post. Haha. Gawd, that was quite a long time! How sad is that huh? So what took me this so long? Well, I have many reasons in mind but I’m not really sure what among all those reasons is the most reasonable. Hahaha. I’m not explaining myself to you guys. I mean what’s the point in doing that right? Don’t mind me, I’m just talking to myself okay? I self-talk a lot, you know. So here’s the point: up to now, I’m still trying to figure things out to myself.

Maybe I was lost again and didn’t know the way back like some castaway. Maybe I was hiding from something or someone. Yes, I guess that’s pretty much it. Hiding from something I’m not ready to face yet─ scared to say or even think what it really is. Refreshing the memories of my Psych 101, my all-time favorite subject, right now I’m using the two of my most frequently used defense mechanism: denial (blocking out or disowning painful thoughts and feelings) and repression (an involuntary, automatic submerging of painful, unpleasant thoughts and feelings into the unconscious). *With matching definitions pa. Oh well. Haha*

Maybe I was fooling myself all this time that everything will be alright and everything will eventually fall into its places when I come back into reality and finally awaken from a very long sleep.

Yes, I was asleep. I couldn’t really say that it was like a journey because it’s not as positive as it may sound. Why? Because all this time that I was in neverland (haha) I felt that my life is wasted and miserable. Everything turning into pieces, everything is… screwed up. I lost my self-esteem. I lost my trust in myself. I lost my faith in what I can do. I lost my passion in doing the things I love like writing. I feel so irresponsible. I’m not being productive as a member of our organization. I feel so worthless. It’s like I’ve lost everything that I’ve worked hard for: the respect of other people and most especially, my self-respect. And to sum it up? I’M SCREWED. Do you have any idea how this feels when you put these altogether? It’s horrible, I tell you.

So yeah, where will I start my life? And where will I end this post by the way?

Screw it, I have no idea. Right now all I can say is this: life goes on. Nada.

Jeez, that was a pretty messed-up start.

There are certain things that I don’t want to, as much as possible, talk about especially with other people BECAUSE they are very painful and I consider those the darkest moments of my life in which I am not proud of. Yes, I am ashamed of the past mistakes and whatever it is that I regret to talk about. Besides, what’s the point right? I want to move on and it wouldn’t help if I’ll be reminded of those mistakes in my life. It wouldn’t be a help at all.

I’m so tired of feeling miserable and tired of those people whose trying to make me feel miserable. I’m so tired of being reminded how a big failure I am. Couldn’t people just leave me alone and let me figure things out myself?

Jawbreaker

2009-05-07T15:00:00.000-07:00

At exactly 3:00 inside my room on a gloomy and rainy (stormy, rather) Wednesday afternoon, I finally finished Breaking Dawn! Insert dancing banana here.

FINALLY, after somewhat holding back myself from reading books other than my hideous-looking books on Nursing─ Medical Surgical book on the top of my list, of course, a.j.c.a (also jokingly called as) the most accessible and effective sedative there’s no need of a sleeping pill for the insomniacs─ I finally finished the book (Breaking Dawn) that has always been my priority-must-read-book. This vacation seems to be the perfect timing for this─ I thought it seemed inappropriate to call it a summer vacation when there’s a lot of storm approaching. It feels good to finally be given the luxury of time to splurge on leisure readings. Let’s cheers to that!

It’s roughly the second week of my much awaited vacation and since there’s nothing much to do really aside from watching some crappy pirated DVDs with my cousins from Manila who arrived also last week, I’ve settled myself to just read and read and read until there’s no more books to read with the hope of letting me get me through my last week of my vacation (probably my last vacation, I fear so) and now that there’s no more books to read the boredom seems to be taking effect now, killing me piece by piece.

Okay, enough of the drama.

Since thinking about boredom alone is altogether boring already I might as well shrug away from the thought and try think of positive thoughts and find myself of something to do so now I’m here, getting myself into the blogging scene again! Cheers to that! I really really missed blogging. It’s been like forever since my last post and I feel quite bad about it. It’s like I’ve forsaken a very important part of me: my love for writing. I promise myself I will be better. I will make up and keep up.

So anyway, I’ve finished 4 books so far: The Zahir by Paolo Coelho, Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella, There’s no place like here by Cecilia Aher and finally, Breaking Dawn by nonetheless, the genius, Stephenie Meyer. I enjoyed myself reading all these books, I love them all, each one of them equally worth-reading but my fave (I have a favorite, of course) is Confessions of a Shopaholic. It’s a really good book─ Rebecca Bloomwood is the funniest! Cecilia Ahern’s piece is also loved. I really appreciated the story and it’s lesson─ I’ve learned a lot from it. Sandy Shortt, the heroine of the story is so much like me in many ways. Although I found Breaking Dawn a priority, I found it─ as what many others have called it─ the downfall of the Twilight Saga. I don’t know, maybe Twilight has been my rock-solid-favorite-of-all-time among the four books that I didn’t really appreciated the other books that much. I mean, they don’t weigh equally as Twilight, sort of a thing like that. Do I make sense? Haha. I can’t explain, really. Maybe I found the “firsts” the best like for example, Legally Blonde 1, I think, is better than Legally Blonde 2 or the first season of Grey’s Anatomy is my fave of all the seasons, but of course, we all know that all the season of GA’s are one of a kind. OR maybe each one unique as the other─ that explains it, I think. End of the story. Haha. But anyway it feels good to finally finish Breaking Dawn. It just feels good to feel a sense of fulfilment and accomplishment =)

With that I couldn’t be any more thankful for having created literature, if someone created literature that is.

Currently listening to: Longer by Dan Fogelberg. Senti mode.
Mood: Relaxed, ecstatic and a bit bored.

I know you missed me.

Xoxo,
Apple (K)

So here's the thing...

2009-04-14T05:16:00.000-07:00

I’m back to blogging again though I might get to update only sporadically (I would like to thank the movie Clueless for the word). So anyway, I recently changed my 24/7 internet connection to a prepaid mode nalang- I’m currenly using Globe Tatoo. I’m not really using the net that much during school days (school can sometimes be a bitch, y’all know that already) so therefore sobrang lugi ako since I pay P999 every month eh once a month or twice, sometimes pa nga I didn’t get to use the internet for a whole month. Boohoo. Well anyway, Globe Tatoo is okay naman as of now. Haha. Sometimes lang the signal is so mahina that’s why it can be so mabagal at times but anyway it’s cool because I can get to bring it anywhere (it’s so handy) so it’s all good parin :)

Hahaha. Okay that was random.

I miss blogging. I miss my blogger friends :( Hopefully I might be able to catch up parin since a lot of them are using Plurk. It’s soooo much fun! I hope I’ll be able to update a lot to make up for my loooonnngg absence in the blogging world. I miss writing narin eh. Goodluck to me! :)

Where is she?!

P.S. Welcome back, Misha!!!

Sembreak finally

2008-10-26T03:24:00.001-07:00

Gawd, this day is soooooo boring. I can't imagine how I survived this super to the nth degree celcius hotness of the weather today. And hey, speaking of the weather... Isn't it that, supposedly our weather should be a little less warmer or should I say, colder? Whatever okay? But what's wrong with the weather?! It's freakin' hot this afternoon and I don't know what to do :l Rain, rain, please do rain!

Haha. Okay, enough about that.

Okay, since I have nothing to blog about really so I think I'll just be sharing some pics during our seminar last October 18 at the Fiesta Pavillion, Manila Hotel :)

On our way to Manila Hotel. What's with the snob attitude? Hahaha.

L-NU Nursing Student Council

Behind the scenes.

That's me in the lobby of Manila Hotel. First time eh. Haha.

With our very own CON Dean, Dr. Virginia Mendoza.

I've learned so much from this conference.

On our way home.

It's one of the best seminars I've attended so far and I'm really really grateful to be chosen as one of the representatives of our school. Ahh, the perks of being in the Nursing Student Council! Gahhh, I owe you this =) Thank you for this great opportunity!

P.S. Can I say hooray? Today is officially our first day of sembreak! Yehey!!!

Thank you Sunshine.com

2008-10-25T05:36:00.000-07:00

For being truly, my greatest sunshine.

For changing my life in so many ways.

For helping me become a better and whole person :)

The Chosen Ones

2008-10-20T02:19:00.000-07:00

Hello gorgeous people of this planet! This is our last week here in Manila for our affiliation. Bilis noh? The group from Veteran's went home last Friday kaya konti nalang kame sa dormitory here in Varsity Hills.

So here's the thing: You just have no idea how busy I am right now. As in busy-ness to the nth power, I swear. LOL.

Yung tipong di man lang makapagbukas ng other accounts like my friendster or multiply.

Yung tipong di pa kame makalabas labas ni Ishna (ako pa naman ang nagyaya. Sheesh)

Yung tipong di man lang makapagshopping for personal use sa Shopper'sville or MOA. Well nakapunta na ako sa SM Marikina last Saturday pero sobrang saglit lang. If ever makakalabas kame, sa NBS Katip lang mostly to buy the materials we need sa mga activities namin sa Sunshine.com.

Ahh. This is life. Sigh. But anyway, kahit gaano pa kame kabusy, I'm still very blessed and overwhelmed na sa Recovery ako napasama. With that I say, Sunhine.com is one of the best thing that happened to my life :D

Kweschon: Pwede bang maglibrary sa Ateneo kahit di ka student dun? Hehehe. May Case presentation kasi kame about bipolar disorder and we badly need some referrences. You know, you can't really trust the infos you get in the net. It's either we go to the city library or Ateneo. Hay ang hirap naman, sa Friday na pala namin ipapass. Yay yay yay yay.

Hidden agenda: para makakita ng mga artista. Hahaha. I'm such a loser.

I miss Dagupan.

I miss my room.

I miss my school.

I miss my parents.

I miss Sunshine and Izan.

I miss... YOU.

Affiliation Update

2008-10-13T17:51:00.002-07:00

It's our 2nd day here in Manila for our affiliation in Sunshine.com in New Manila, QC and we've been literally toxic since our first day so my supposed schedule to blog was postponed. I have lots of stories to tell for all of you so stay tuned :)

BTW, we'll be staying here in Loyola Heights for the 2 weeks duration of our affiliation and it's soooooo cool because we're super near in Ateneo, my dream school. HAHAHA. I hope I'll be bumping into Saab Magalona or Chris Tui one of this days. Heehee.

Will update SOON :) Bye.

Happiness is the keyword

2008-10-04T08:34:00.000-07:00

Finals are finally over... and I'm so over it.

Okay, so this will be very quick because I still have to do some editing etc etc. Yeah, my job, my responsibility. Whatever. WTFH. Yay! ~~I'm so f*cked up!~~ My life is such a mess. *sigh* Anyway, negativism aside for the mean time, I'm so overwhelmed with joy at this moment (exagge!) that our final exam- the "judgement day" as what we, nursing students call it- is finally over. I've been sleepless and stressed out and anxious for the past two weeks because of the freakin' exams as manifested by pimples here, there and everywhere (screw the freakin' hormones!) and prominent dark circles under my eyes- yeah, the eyebugs. I super love it.. NOT. It's bull.

Here's a quick evaluation of my exams:

Cardio- Internal hemorrhage
F & E- Sisiw! Hahaha :))
Respiratory- Nosebleed
GI- ANV (anorexia, nausea and vomitting), Slightly complicated
OB- 50-50 Hahaha.
Pedia- Easy as usual :p
Psych- My favorite subject. My forte. Hehehe.

Okay so here's the best part of all- I lost my examination permit. It was a minute or two before the exam proper when I went to the comfort room to pee- a strong manefestation of my high anxiety level. I know I know. Bad timing (or can you say worst?). I was in a hurry to the max because I don't want to be left behind with the shading thing (FYI: we do shading during exams and unit tests for every single subject) that's why I was almost running to get to the CR. And the rest is history. I'm 100 to the nth power % sure that I had dropped it somewhere. You just can't imagine how my world turned upside-down when I realized that my examination permit was gone in the wind- the most devastating situation of my life so far. I was crying like hell looking for my permit on my bag and everywhere. It's really a good thing and I'm very very thankful that Mam Nicholas, our proctor, was very kind and understanding enough to let me take the exam (I just showed her my permit) or else... I'm double dead. As in like a double dead meat. Taking a special exam is never an option for us nursing students like me so I'm not exagerrating here. *Sigh* What an awful experience :l With all that I say... ~~SHIT HAPPENS~~! Whahaha.

The lesson? Never ever ever put your money and your examination permit on your pockets and it's so urgent that you have to run because you really need to have a last trip to the comfort room before the start of the lethal exams. Yeah right!!! When will I ever learn this lesson?

So enough about that super bad experience. The most important thing for me now is that the sem is finally over and the next sem will be another chance to change and improve for the best, to rise up again after that long, painful fall and to learn from the past mistakes. I must admit that this sem was not that good or satisfactory (think: mediocrity), whatever you call it but I promise to myself and to my future (haha) and to my Mom and Dad that I'll make up for it and try harder next time by sparing more of my brain cells and burn more midnight oil. I'll avenge my name this 2nd sem. Itaga nyo yan sa bato! Hahaha.

***

MAJOR UPDATE: I'll be going on AFFILIATION on October 13! I'm suuuppeerrr excited about it! [Obvious naman diba? Naka-all caps pa ang word na affiliation. Hahaha.] Only 25 of us were assigned in Sunshine.com, a recovery institution for mental patients. The rest will be in Veterans and NCMH. I'll be telling more about it when we get there in Manila.

Ishna, magkita tayo please! Hahaha. Sa Loyola Heights, QC ang dorm namin, malapit kaba dun? :)

Oh btw, summer duty na namin for NCM 103 on Monday. So hospital duty from Monday-Friday (Oct 6-10) then affiliation on Saturday. Musta naman yun? :c

***

A picture in Medical Centrum Dagupan with one of our patient, lolo Adrian. Share ko lang because this pic inspires me a lot. Looking at this picture helped me to become motivated to strive harder this finals. He's one of the nicest and the best patient I have handled so far. I will never forget him :)

***

Yay! Ang haba din pala ng post na to'. Hahaha. So I think that's all for now. I badly need a good night sleep tonight. I need to regain my energy after this long, stressful, exhausting day.

Thank you Lord for everything :)

Sweetdreams people!

Epal lang :p

2008-09-30T08:26:00.000-07:00

Ramon Bautista, YOU ROCK!!! Hahaha. Super laughtrip to the max, yo!

Watch and Learn.

So what do you think about it? Nakakaloko lang eh noh. So that's it. Yun lang naman. Hahaha. I'll be updating SOON after our finals exam. Please pray for me guys :) Love you all.

I'll be right back :)

P.S. I WILL SURVIVE 101!

Note before watching: No laughing please. I'm not good at this, okay? ~~I'd rather write instead.~~ But well, in fairness to me, 1 take lang yan. LOL. Sorry about the poor audio. Hope you like it :p

Hahaha. Btw, forgive me about the "Curettage" pronunciation in D & C. Honestly, I'm not sure how to pronounce it correctly :p Obvious naman sa part na hesitant ako sa pagpronounce right? Haha. And musta naman ang Ow-peration? Hahaha. Kabado eh. Oh well, it happens sometimes.. I guess? Haha.

No negative comments please. Please be good to me.

2008-09-07T09:13:00.000-07:00

Semi-Final Exams are finally over!

Yahoo :) Now this calls for some MAJOR celebration. Cheers :D Haha. I really really really hope though that the results wouldn't be that bad. LOL. Oh please, I need to pass everything or else—mark my word (hahaha)—I wouldn't show up my face to the world EVER if I fail *knocks on the wood* even a single concept.

Anyways, based on my assessment on the exams today, I ranked it from my most difficult to the easiest one:

Rank 1: MS: Cardio-Neuro*
Rank 2: MS: Fluids and Electrolytes*
Rank 3: MS: Respiratory
Rank 4: Obstetric Nursing*
Rank 5: MS: Gastro-Intestinal
Rank 6: Psychiatric Nursing
Rank 7: Pediatric Nursing

FYI: The ones with asterisks (*) are those subjects I find a bit difficult. Jeeez. What an understatement! Haha.

Uhm.. Can I ask for a human minute please? I just badly need to perform my personal mantra...

I love Nursing.

I love Nursing.

I love Nursing.

I love Nursing.

I love Nursing.

I love Nursing.

I love Nursing.

Hahaha. Okay, so much for convincing myself. Lol.

Btw, I was supposed to post my VLOG (watch out for it :p) here today but the uploading in YouTube is taking like ages. *sigh* I guess I'll be posting it tomorrow na lang :p

***
CONGRATULATIONS, ATE CHESCA :D

So that's all for today :) See you all tomorrow.

Memories will fade, a video is forever ♥

2008-09-03T09:27:00.000-07:00

This video was taken from my Sis Izan's 18th birthday bash last Saturday in Nibaleo Resort in San Fabian, Pangasinan. It was a pool party with a touch of Hawaiian atmosphere. Lovette, beybi! Haha. Anyway, the girl on the video is Tessa having her very funny and super touching testimonial to Izan. Super laughtrip to the max yo! :)) Tessa is the best comedian on the face of the planet. LOL. Btw, I'm the one who took this video so my voice is just on the background. Ibida paba daw ang sarili? Haha. Epal. FYI: Awww is the overused word for this video. Hahaha.

This week will be quizes-slash-unit tests-slash-exam week so I'll be on a blog leave for a few days till Sunday :) Please please please pray for me. After the Semi-final exams on Sunday, I'm back in the game. I might be posting something pero random ramblings lang and whatsoever. The rest of the pics and happenings in the debut will be served to you right after the exams. Yay. Break a leg, Apple :)

Dream sweet people <3

Look what I've just read in my phone just this morning. This is too much na. I don't deserve this. When will they ever stop this whole bullshit thing?

Here's the text message:

What is the fuckin' wrong with these people?

Grabe ang kapal naman ng mukha ng taong ito na magtext sakin ng ganito. The nerves talaga! Of my 19 years of existence, ngayon lang talaga ako nakaencounter ng ganitong tao. Sobrang nakakabadtrip talaga. Up to now I still can't get it why there are some people who could be so mean, arrogant, rude, inconsiderate, insensitive and bastos! I mean, bakit naman siya ganon sakin? Sino siya para pagsabihan ako ng ganon? She has no right to talk or text me like that. I mean, sana naman twice niyang inisip yung mga rude comments niya sakin sa text before sending it to me.

Question # 1: Why would I keep the notes from them? Why would I do that? Ano bang mapapala ko?

The point: WTH?! How could she be so stupid? Everytime na may notes na binibigay, she knows it na inaannounce ko naman sa buong class. What's the big fuss about the whole nonsense thing? If she wants, we could go to the nursing office on Monday so Mam Manuel could say it straight right in her face na wala pa syang binibigay na notes sa OB. I hope she has thought about that or kahit sumagi man lang sa makitid niang utak. Tsk. Naturingan pa namang matalino. How could her way of thinking be so lame? Jova, of all people. I can't imagine. Itinuring ko pa naman syang friend—I'm digusted. I was dead wrong about her. Plastic pala sya sakin. I should have never trusted her easily. I'm really disappointed of her. Sobra talaga. So I guess all this time yun ang iniisip niya sakin about me.

Question # 2: Bakit hindi niya sakin sinabi lahat yan kahapon sa duty namin? Bakit sa text niya sakin binubuhos lahat nga galit niya?

The point: She should have confronted me, face-to-face sakin kahapon sa duty kesa sa text niya sinasabi lahat ng to'. Sabi pa niya, "Sna lng wlang damuTan grl 8z jz a mater of notes lng naman?Ryt?F u dnt hv let me d1 hu'l get fr0m ma'am ob.Underztand?!". At may, "Undeztand" pa talaga ha? Anong tingin niya sakin? Hindi makaintindi? Baka siya! Ang kapal naman ng mukha nia. Argghhhh! And what's up with her exclamation marks? Hindi naman masyadong obvious na galit na galit sya noh?

Question # 3: Bakit niya idinadamay ang pagakapresident ko sa class dito sa very childish issue niya?

The point: First of all, what does she know about leadership? With whole conviction I'll say na I'm doing my part as the president of the class so please, fuck off and shut your stupid-big-bad-mouth, girl! She doesn't have any right na i-question ang pagakapresident ko sa class dahil mismong sya na class vice-president "kuno", wala namang ginagawa! Ano nabang nagawa niya as the vice president? Mahiya naman siya sa mga pinagsasasabi nia. Who the hell she think she is? Kunwari pang concern sa ibang classmate, tae nia! She knows deep in all her veins and arteries na she's just thinking about herself. Stop pretending that you care kasi hindi mo bagay!

I know I have a lot of shortcomings as a leader. I'm not perfect, I also commit mistakes. Alam ko lahat nang yun. Pero, ang saakin lang, if you're going to address such critisms and complains, sana naman say it in a nice way. Madali naman akong kausap eh. Hindi naman ako mahirap umintindi. Sana sabihin naman nila sakin ng maayos. Wag naman sana sa way na nakakabastos naman sa part ko.

I don't have to prove anything to them. I don't have to show to all of them na I'm going inside the office to coordinate all their concerns and complains. That's not the type of leadership I know. Hindi nila ako katulong or utusan or anything. I know my obligations as the president of the class. Wala syang karapatan na i-judge ang leadership ko because she doesn't know anything about being a leader. Wala siyang karapatang maglecture sakin about leadership.

Please stop bullshiting me as if you know everything. Stop barking at the wrong tree. Better not push your limits.

Last Duty Day Syndrome ♥

2008-08-29T08:38:00.000-07:00

Goodbye Nuestro Senor Sto. Nino General Hospital. Goodbye Bayambang.

One of the best duty days ever! Lol. Our month-long duty in Nuestro has ended tonight and although it breaks my heart *LMAO* we officially said goodbye to Bayambang and as for me... to Nurse Francis ♥ Hahaha. We had our evaluations exam at 6 pm and everyone have finished it with no sweat. Lol. As our University President would say, "Team work and hard work will work". JOKE. Well seriously, the exam was not difficult only that there were some unfamiliar drug classifications that we haven't encountered before so that's where the power of a 20-20 vision works. Haha. Sucks to be me though, my sense of sight is kind of deteriorating so I have to wear my stupid glasses. Haha. I'm near-sighted btw. What a loser. Lol.

Anyways, if I haven't told you yet, my dutymates are the BEST people in the world—I love them all ♥ and we had the best times in Bayambang. Best people and the best times. Very nice :) Although sometimes there are some misunderstandings and other issues about the stupid van and others, I can say with conviction (exagge. hahaha) that we have the happiest and the best group the College of Nursing has ever made. Special thanks to Mam Nasog :)

Our almost-complete-picture. Sorry for the poor image quality :p

Btw, our next duty for the month of September will be on Metro Dagupan Centrum (not sure about the hospital name. Lol) 8-4 shift and I hope it will be as fun as like in Nuestro. Yeah, hopefully.

Our last pic before finally leaving the hospital. Nurse Francis at the middle ♥
:))

Here are some of the pics taken for the day: (Picture sharing galore. Lol)

The Anatomy of Tinola for dinner :p

Happiness :)

Shine: I'm gonna kill you, you biatch.
Me: Have mercy on me! Please!

Hmmm. What's with the pose?

Camwhoring moments

Okay that's all for tonight I guess. It's 1:20 na in my clock. Have to sleep na for Izan's grand bday Hawaiian-themed party at a resort somewhere in San Fabian. The attire? Swim wear. OMFG. Wish me luck. ~~YES YOU HAVE TO.~~ Lol.

:))

Bye.

To a sister and a friend

2008-08-27T07:31:00.000-07:00

Happy 18th Bday Sis Izan! We love you so much <3

Hello, gorgeous people of the blogging society! My Tumblr Blog is up and running. Haha :D I'll be making that one as my random blog so you'll be seeing me update there more often (because I'm such a random person. lol)

And please don't forget to follow me. Hahaha.

http://lyraquilloy.tumblr.com

But of course, this blog is still my first love (and Edward Cullen is my greatest love. Hahaha) I won't be changing the layout yet because tamad pa ako so I'll just probably keep it like this for now, simple and clean.

Sweet dreams. See you in dreamland :)

P.S. See I updated again! Hurray to me! *applauses* I'm so happy for my blog. Improving! Haha. Like I told you before... Bubuhayin ko ang blog na to! LOL.

Dammit.

I got home from my hospital duty (3-11 shift) at Bayambang Pangasinan last night at around 11:45 pm. It was tiring but fun of course :D Thanks to the nicest people on the face of the planet, my ever hilarious and lovable dutymates! I love you all <3

Lola Ancheta, my patient last week whose suffering from CHF (Congestive Heart Failure) of both the right and left, was still there and I was surprised because I thought she was discharged already because she'd been in the hospital for a week now. She told me that today was just supposed to be her check-up (she was discharged last Saturday) but she has to be confined because her dyspnea attacked again. She was on with a nasal cannula when I saw her. I got the chance to visit and talk to her later (because I was assigned on the ER yesterday) and so I found out why she's still confined. I hope she's doing fine now. Get well soon, Lola :)

Yet another day in my second home, the hospital :)

Happy 18th Birthday, Ms. Altheza Paguyo, one of my most loved dutymate! Get ready for our surprise later at the hospital. Mwahahaha.

Wow. Finally. My second post for the Month of August. Lovette. This is life :)

~~Bakit kung sino pa ang magiging perfect girlfriend, sila pa yung single?~~

:))

[Edit:] This is nonsense. Ngayon ko lang narealize. Hahaha. Pasensya na. Nageemote lang ako. LOL.

It's all in the mind

2008-07-10T05:42:00.000-07:00

Screw school. Screw MS. Screw nursing.

Hahaha. Just kidding :))

Okay so I'm not supposed to blog right now. Fine! Namiss ko lang magblog. Tagal ko ng di nag-uupdate. Sooooobrang busy kasi ako right now, as in. Busy sa school. Busy sa ULNOS. Busy sa life. Busy busy busy. Hayyy. You can't imagine how busy I am right now. Deepest sigh ever.

So anyways, orientation pala namin sa Pangasinan Provincial Hospital tomorrow, from 8am-12 noon sa San Carlos, Pangasinan and then exam namin sa NCM RLE at 1 pm. Kamusta naman yun diba? LOL.

Ang sarap mabuhay!!! Arghhh.

Anyways, I'll try to make a more decent update next time =p I'm gonna make kwento about Shine's debut last Sunday. Andaming happenings. Gazillion pictures are coming up so stay tuned! Btw, I'm typing this whole crap sa isang internet shop malapit samin so I have to stop right now. Gosh, this is so random. This post is so sabog! Hahaha.

One more thing, please pray for me guys! Exam na namin on Saturday. Bale 7 exams all in all and take note, for one day lang yun ha! My gawd. Nakakaloka. Tapos on Sunday, general rehearsal na namin for our Capping ang Pinning. OMG, sa Monday na pala yun! Yay. I'm so excited.

You know you love me :)

P.S. This blog is still alive. I'll be returning comments soon :D

Kweschon :l

2008-07-02T05:40:00.000-07:00

Nangyari naba sayo yung ang saya saya mo tapos after a short while biglang darating ang sangkatutak na kamalasan sayo?

Bakit kaya ang happiness ng isang tao parang laging bitin—yung tipong hindi mo malubos-lubos yung moment na masaya ka kasi may biglang mangyayaring masama o may isang bagay na pipigil sa kasiyahan mo?

Labo :l

The point? TODAY IS NOT MY DAY. Period.

The end.

Plug :)

2008-06-28T05:30:00.000-07:00

Quick post.

May blog na si Shine! Hahaha. You know her na, right? I've been mentioning her in my blog randomly like in the sun-is-for-the-lovers-only thing. Hahaha. She's so precious, diba? LOL. For the information of everyone, she's one of the closest person to me...ever since! Hahaha.

Welcome to the blogging world, S! Cheers :) Actually, ako talaga ang nag-influence sa kanya to make her own blog kaya wala pa syang idea totally about the whole thing. Hahaha. Love you sis!

She's been bugging me to make an entry about it so here it is, sweetie pie :D Ibida ko daw sya eh. Whaha.

So yeah, please visit her blog and kindly welcome her =) Thanks in advance.

Sunshine of Your Life

Updates coming up soon :)

You know you love me,

Your the only other half that makes me whole...

Question: May alam ba kayong song na may ganitong line sa lyrics? What's the title? :)

[Edit:] Alam ko na yung title! "Make me whole" by Amel Larrieux. Thank you Tric and Nadine :) Super ganda ng song na to', I swear. Super fave ko siya kasi... nakakainlove :) Hahaha. The song is so sincere and so solemn. Grabe, I still cry whenever I hear this song. Haaayyy... Ang sarap pakinggan habang umuulan... and malamig ...and you're lonely... and gusto mong magmoment. Hahaha. Corny.

This is one of the truest song anyone has ever written.

Eto na! I have decided. Sure na ako. This will be my wedding song someday! Hahaha :))

Cause your eyes are the windows to heaven
Your smile could heal a million souls
Your love completes my existence
You're the other half that makes me whole
You're the only other half that makes me whole

P.S. La akong mahanap na playlist nung song kaya sa youtube ko na lang kinuha =p

First Week High

2008-06-23T21:28:00.000-07:00

Finally, an update :)

First of all—for your daily dose of my lame excuses *evil laugh*—I haven’t been updating for a week now because classes started last Monday, June 16, and I’ve been quite busy on the first day of school itself that I wasn’t able to find time to face the computer and blog. Boo :l I bet school will always be school and I am too cool for school. LOL. So yeah.

To get a glimpse of my personal “torture” for the next 4-5 months of the 1st semester—so you can sympathize with me—I now present to you…my class schedule :p Hahaha.

CLASS SCHEDULE
A.Y. 2008-2009

Monday
Pediatric Nursing 7:30-8:30
Obstetric Nursing 8:30-9:30
MS: Fluids and Electrolytes 9:30-11:30

Tuesday
MS: Respiratory 7:30-8:30
MS: Gastro-intestinal 8:30-9:30
MS: Cardio-Neuro 9:30-11:30
Psychiatric Nursing 1:00-2:00

Wednesday
Nutrition and Diet Therapy 9:00-12:00

Thursday, Friday, Saturday
NCM 101 RLE
(Hospital Duties) 7-3, 3-11, 11-7

On the lighter note, if I’m going to think about it, I got a fair good schedule. My Mondays to Wednesdays are not full-packed which is a good thing. At least I can have time to rest—to sleep most especially—and to study and review for all my nine subjects. God is good all the time!

As they say, junior year is the most crucial part in the life of a nursing student and I certainly won’t argue with that. For one, I have 9 subjects in all—8 major subjects and 1 minor to be specific—and another, our hospital duties. Well, hmmm…*thinks*, if that will be the case, I should really be serious and focused with my studies. It’s not that I’m not serious and focused but I think I have to double (or triple?) the effort and everything so I won’t be left behind in our lessons. I’m pretty sure our subjects for this year will be way more complicated as compared to the previous ones. Yay! Now I can feel the real pressure. Good luck to me!

For my Mom and Dad, for my future and for myself, I will do the very best that I can to survive and pass through the enormous mountains ahead of me! So help me God.

***

Here's a very short conversation of my friend, Shine and me. Wala lang, I just remember it out of the blue and when I did remember it, natatawa talaga ako :))

Me: Shine, masu-sun na ako.
Shine: Sun? Bakit, may boyfriend kana ba?
Me: Um. Wala pa :(

Shine: *confused look*
Me: *incredulous look*

WTF?! What's wrong with this world? Mga magboyfriend at mag-girlfriend nalang ba ang may karapatang mag-SUN?! Tell me, please!

***

CLASSES ARE SUSPENDED TODAY!!!

:))

Wow! Ang saya naman namin ni Jems, my schoolmate, kasi la kaming pasok! Hahaha. Yahoo! Nakalusot sa OB quiz namin today *evil laugh* Si Jems, first day nia sana today kaso ayun. Wala palang pasok. I bet she's disappointed. Haha. Ayaw ata syang papasukin sa school! Whahaha :))

Grabe, ang lamig today! Sarap mag-nescafe pag umuulan noh? Haha.

Okay, enough of that. I know you’ve had enough. LOL. Let’s come now to my favorite part—the more random and fun stuffs! :p

Please just be happy for me because… It’s official!

I am now the Editor-in-Chief of ULNOS, the Official Student Publication of

I’m really, really, really grateful for this blessing God has given me, for entrusting me this— though a very big responsibility—but really an awesome opportunity. I know they (ULNOS pipz) wouldn’t be able to read this by any chance (haha. I’m pretty sure about that), I would like to thank all those who voted for me and chose me to be the next EIC. Thank you for trusting me :) I’ll do everything I can, in the best way I can to be a good captain of “our” ship; to help keeping the “legacy” (naks!) of ULNOS burning!

Duh. What a speech XD

Anyways, if your confused about what the hell I’m talking about here, read this previous entry of mine just so you’ll be enlightened =)

D: Meredith.

M: Where have you been?? I've been waiting and waiting for you! And I did this stupid, embarrassing, humiliating, corny thing! And I was just gonna tell you that this over here is our kitchen! And.. this is our living room, and over there, that's the room where our kids could play! I had this whole thing about I was gonna build us a house but I don't build houses because I'm a surgeon! And now I'm here feeling like a lame ass loser!

I got all whole and healed!... And you don't show up! And now its all ruined because you took so long to come home! And I couldn't even find that bottle of champagne!

D: (shows the bottle of champagne) This is the kitchen? Living room? Its a little small. I think the view's much better from here. And that's the room where the kids are gonna play? Uhmmm..(nodding) Where's our bedroom?

M: I'm still mad at you. And I don't know if I trust you. I wanna trust you but I don't know if i do, so I'm just gonna try, I'm gonna try and trust you. Coz I believe that we can be extraordinary together rather ordinary apart. And I wanna be...

[Edit] I'm currently watching this...

Okay, fine. I get it. Although the story's way too far to become a reality, I still enjoy watching it coz first of all the story is cute, Wu Chun is cute (and he's freakin' H-O-T too), Angela Zhang is cute and I've always been into fairy tales since I was young which, I think is also cute. HAHAHA.

Very cute couple. They look perfect together but...
If fairy tales do come true, i would want to marry you!!!

Dahil kay Cosme...

2008-05-30T04:43:00.000-07:00

1. Dahil kay Cosme, wala kaming kuryente sa aming munting apartment which means NO internet, less blogging activities or, in short, inactive cyberlife (or whatever you call it). I'm typing this whole crap in an internet shop. 88.20P na ang current balance ko as of this time. Ugh.

2. Dahil kay Cosme, hindi ko naannounce ang aking birthday nung May 24. Hindi ko kayo nasabihan na batiin nio ako :( Hindi ko din nabasa ang mga birthday greetings ko sa Friendster and Multiply. Thank you pala sa mga bumati :)

At hindi ko rin nabati si Ate Chesca 2 days after. May 26 kasi yung birthday nia. Belated Happy Birthday, Ate Chesca!

3. Dahil kay Cosme, hindi ko naibalita sainyo na tapos ko na ang Twilight and New Moon. Grabe, ang sarap pala talaga ng feeling nang may natatapos kang something noh? Fulfilling ang feeling. As usual and as always, out-of-stock na naman ang Eclipse dito sa National Book Store, Dagupan kaya nabitin ang pagbabasa ko. INUTIL. Grrr. How I wish na sana may Powerbooks din dito. Anyway, dahil dun, I settled reading Tuesdays with Morrie instead. I haven't finished it yet kaya next time nalang ang aking reactions and whatnots :)

Btw, speaking of books, here's the list of the other books that I would like to read next: (At kelan pa ako naging bookworm?!)

Note: Of course, I know that I may not be able to read all of these in a nick of time considering my anticipated-almost-impossible 3rd year life schedule as a nursing student PERO I'll try to prove myself that I can have a life outside the hospital and school. Sabi nga nila, "All work and no play makes a boy dull". Ganun ba yun? Ah basta something like that! Hehe.

Pagbigyan nio na ako, frustrated reader eh, diba?

*The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks
*To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
*Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
*Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen (I already have this one)
*Secret by Rhonda Byrne
*The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
*My Young Blood book compilation :) (I have this one na din)

Any worth reading books na gusto niong isuggest? Share it naman oh :)

Help me live life to the fullest! LOL :>

4. Dahil kay Cosme, may chance pang maging mas lalong productive ang summer vacation ko. Aba, mahaba-haba din pala ang bakasyon ko kung tutuusin ah. Ang bait naman talaga ni Lord noh?

5. Dahil kay Cosme, sa June 10 (yehey!) or June 16 (wow!) or June 23 (whaaaaa!!!) pa ang pasok namin. That seems to be a good news, I guess. Good news for me in a sense na matatapos ko pa ang Eclipse before pasukan and marami pang time para magreflect sa buhay (naks) at maghanda para sa pasukan: physically, emotionally and spiritually.

6. Dahil sayo Cosme, hindi na ako natigil sa kakaisip kay Edward. Sa gabi, dahil walang kuryente at walang magawa, iniisip ko siya... :(

7. Dahil kay Cosme, madaming mga poste ng kuryente at mga puno natumba, maraming mga tao ang nawalan ng tirahan dahil nasira ang kanilang mga bahay at natanggal ang kanilang mga bubong.

Cosme, oh, Cosme! Anong ba tong ginawa mo?

Yun lang. Hehe. 105.42P na ang balance ko as of 8:43 p.m. Haha. Bye for now guys :) I'll be back soon! Please pray na magkakuryente na kami at matagal pa sana ang pasukan. Heehee.

P.S. Babalik na si Cindy :)

PPS. To end this, let me share to you something I treasure deep in my heart...my family. Here's our family picture :)

My family. It's where my heart belongs. LOL.

Astig. Hehe.

Perfection.

Twilight Madness

2008-05-14T06:26:00.000-07:00

About three things I was absolutely positive.

First, Edward was a vampire.

Second, there was a part of him-and I didn't know how dominant that part might be-that thirsted for my blood.

And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

O.M.G. Hyperventilation to the extremes!

I saw this Twilight teaser from Gyk's blog and I just want to repost it here to help spread the good news to everyone. Good in the "good news" doesn't even fit, though, but even so, you're gonna love me for this. I swear. LOL.

So, without further adieu, here's the video that will surely make your dreams come true, in the literal sense of the word.

Here it is. Indulge :))

Twilight in HD

Coming out this 12.12.08

Have yourself an early-merry-little Christmas!

Sigh. Don't you just wish that you possess this supernatural power of making the time pass by fast, I mean fast-forwarding the time so it'll be December 12 already? Haha. I hope I do :(

Anyway, everybody seems sooooo excited about the movie and I can see no reason why they wouldn't! Edward Cullen is just too good to be true, or as Bella describes, "too perfect to be real", even in the movie, I hope. Honestly, I'm not that certain if Robert Pattinson (Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter) can justify the character well. My imagination and perception of Edward's "perfection" in the book doesn't seem to satisfy me in the person of Robert P. but, maybe, I'll just have to make my judgment until the movie comes out in the big screen. Whoohoo. Big event.

Actually, I just started reading the book, I'm on Chapter 14 already. Or rather, nasa Chapter 14 pa lang ako. Haha. Okay, fine. I must admit, my reading ability is not that quite good. Or read: I'm not quite a fast reader. Or easily put as: my reading ability suck bigtime. Haha. Whatever.

Edit: I've finished reading the book already!!! This calls for a major celebration! I'm already starting with the 2nd book :) I.am.loving.my.summer.vacation.

Yeah, I know, I'm not like Tric (I love you, mare) and the others who can be considered as "voracious" who have the ability to read a book like this in two days or less. Me, on the other hand, can be considered more of a "frustrated" reader for that matter. Why-oh-why have I missed having that skill of reading fast? Sigh. Maybe I just never like reading that much, since now. Before, I see it more of a task than a hobby that's why I'm not really into reading, if you know what I mean. LOL. Scholastic readings, yes, of course, I had enough of that. Or rather, I'm already fed up with that. Haha.

When life offers you a dream so far beyond any of your expectations, it’s not reasonable to grieve when it comes to an end.

The moment I read this certain line from the preface of the book, I already had this strong feeling that this book's going to be freakin' good. And truly it was, better than I expected, actually.

I bought the book at Powerbooks, SM Megamall last Friday when I went to Pasig (FYI: I used to live there for many years) to attend Emil's Christening. And also, my Auntie Emily and Ate Myleene, my cousin, with her family arrived here in the Philippines so everyone in the family was there, almost complete. I wasn't really surprised that we're all present because it's sort of a must to show up there when they arrive. LOL.

Good thing, this book isn't yet sold out in bookstores in Manila so I wouldn't end up disappointed as what happened when I searched for this book in NBS, Dagupan. The books here were more limited, I guess.

I wish I could finish this book soon (or sooner) so I could start (or rush) on the second book, New Moon, before the school is about to begin. Go go go Apple!!!

I love you Edward Cullen.

You are the love of my life.

You dazzle me every time. It never fails.

:)

P.S. Birthday ko na sa May 24! Please don't forget leave your birthday greetings here :D Heehee.

PSS. Here's the first part of my plugging thingy for my friends and blogmates joining the Candy Teen Blog Awards :)

This Broke My Heart :'(

Please watch it too :) You'll never regret it. I don't know about you but honestly, I broke out after watching this so now I'm sharing this to all of you to find out why.

Warning: This is a major tearjerker. Make sure you have a tissue beside you :)

Enjoy and be inspired =)

If You Want Me To by Ginny Owens

The pathway is broken
And the signs are unclear
And I dont know the reason why you brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I will go through the valley
If You want me to

Now I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise
You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials bring me closer to You
I will go through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my own
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'll never go alone

So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley
If You want me to

Ahhhh. This is LIFE!

2008-05-06T20:53:00.000-07:00

I am on Hiatus NO MORE.

GG is back. Georgina is back.

SO AM I.

This is really is it! Now I can officially greet myself a merry, happy vacation...at last! My week-long sleepless nights reviewing for my Micropara and NCM 100 is finally over. Well at least for now. LOL. I've been longing for this y'know, I mean a real-slash-true-to-life vacation coz if you still don't know yet, I'm in school like 75% of the time. Or make that 80 %. Haha. Yeah, seriously. For the past two years of my academic life here in college, (yay. I'll be in my junior year this sem btw) I haven't recalled any worth-remembering moments of my summer vacation. Last summer, as far as my poor, crappy memory is concerned, I was also in school having my summer classes. We weren't really required to take summer till our 2nd year summer but I enrolled because I thought it would be a good idea to make use of my summer vacation wisely by advancing some minor subjects and yes, it really was a great help to lessen up my loads for the next semester. Besides, being stuck at home is much worst than I could imagine summer classes would be. Since I have anticipated being at home to be as twice as boring, I took up summer classes. Apparently, as you can see, my whole freshmen year was spent (or can you call that devoted?) in school. Oh yes, I love school! I love being in school. Or not? LOL.

So why am I ranting about all this nonsense? What's the point? Hahaha. Yeah, I know. Don't mention it. I'm pointless. I'm nonsense. But maybe I am just the owner of this almost-forsaken-ancient blog and I have all the right to be pointless and nonsense. Haha. Just kidding. Well seriously, maybe I'm just happy that I have survived another semester. Maybe I'm just happy to have a break, not being in school OR not having any meetings or commitments with my orgs even for a while. Maybe I'm just happy not being worried about anything and be carefree.

The bottom line of this post: I am really back.

I am on a HIATUS.

Learn it. Live it. Love it.

Haha. Just kidding :)

P.S. I'll be back after my Micro Para exams! I miss you all bigtime :( I have a loooooooooooottttt of stories for you when I come back :p Keep in touch ok? Stay with me. Love you all :D

This is my now

There was a time I packed my dreams away.
Living in a shell, hiding from myself.

There was a time when I was so afraid.
I thought I'd reached the end,
But baby that was then
I am made of more than my yesterdays.

This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment.
As I look around
I can't believe the love I see.
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then, this is my now.

I have to decide,
Was I gonna to play it safe?
Or look somewhere deep in side,
Try to turn the tide,
And find the strength to take that step of faith.

This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment.
As I look around
I can't believe the love I see.
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then, this is my now.

And I have the courage like never before, yeah.
I've settled for less now I'm ready for more,
Ready for more.

This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment.
As I look around I can't believe the love I see.
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then, this is my now.

I'm living in the moment
I look around I can't believe the love I see.
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubt
That was then, this is my now.
This is my now.

Hello everyone! How's your summer vacation so far? Enjoy nio ba? I envy you all :( LOL. I hope you're all enjoying your summer. My gawd, it's freakin' hot today. Summer is really here na talaga!

I was online yesterday but as you can see, now palang ako mag-uupdate. My bad :p It's been 2 weeks na naman since my last post. Wala pa kasing inspiration to write eh and up to now kasi, hiatus and geek mode pa rin ako and I've been somewhere else... in my Multiply. Haayy, kawawa naman tong blog ko :( Well anyway, I'll make up for it nalang after summer classes. Heehee.

Btw, for some of the "God is good" news, we're almost on the midway of our summer classes so it's all good :] Konting-tiis nalang and vacation narin namin. See? I can still have a vacation for a month at least so I therefore conclude that summer classes isn't that bad :D

For some bad news on the other hand, depressed ako ngayon because of the result of our Micro Para exams. It's not so good eh :( I swear, I didn't expect the exam to be that hard. Parang board exam sa Nursing ang dating. Nakakabaliw! I thought madali nalang since matataas naman ang mga nakukuha ko sa mga quizes and scanning of notes nalang ang kailangan. I became confident coz feeling ko, nareview ko na. *Sigh* My aim pa naman is to get a line of 9 in Micro. So sad :( Maybe I just have to try harder. Grrrrr. I will avenge my name in the Finals!

Anyways, last Wednesday was the Graduation Ceremonies of the general courses of L-NU and guess who is the Guest of Honor and Speaker? Tentenenentenen! No other than, Dr. Lucio Tan, one of the most prominent (and richest?) business tycoons in the Philippines. FYI: He's the president of the Philippine Airlines. Oh diba? Bongga!

Syempre, present ang L-NU Chorale sa event na to! Pwede ba naman kaming mawala? Hahaha. Kung saan ang balita, nandoon kami! Grabe, we're soooo privilege talaga kasi diba, it's a rare opportunity na makita ang isang Lucio Tan! It's not that he's rich or something pero, wala lang. Hehehe. Iba lang ang feeling. Parang "in" na din kami. Parang...we belong! Hahaha. We serenaded them during their luncheon and in the Graduation proper so basically, andun kami till matapos ang program. Nakakapagod. When I got home nga, knock down agad ako sa kama :p

Here are some of the behind-the-scenes (naks) pics:

Inside our office. Prepping up time!

Picture ng picture! Errr.

Meet my camwhore buddy, Kuya Neil :)

At CSI Stadia. Kami ang naghawak ng welcoming banner for Lucio Tan.

Kami ang nawawalang anak ni Lucio Tan!!!

The Upper East Siders. LOL.

Dumating na si Daddy! We miss you Dad!

Unfortunately, eto lang ang mga pics. Bad timing naman kasi, nalobat ako kaya ko napicturan ang mga important events. Rawr.

***

While I was in hiatus nga pala, busy din ako na matapos ang Love Story in Harvard starring Kim Hyun Woo (Kim Rae Won) and Lee Soo In (Kim Tae Hui). Yeah, I know last year pa to but you know me, lagi nalang akong behind. Well I say, "Better late than never"! Hahaha.

Love Story in Harvard portrays the dream and love pursued by foreign students studying in Harvard. It demonstrates bright, hard-working, and romantic characters and storylines.
A young love story set at the famed Ivy League school in the United States. Kim Hyun Woo (Kim Rae Won), a 1st year law student at Harvard Law, enters into a rivalry with classmate Hong Jung Min (Lee Jung Jin) for the affections of beautiful medical student Lee Soo In (Kim Tae Hui). The two men are both from prestigious families, while Soo In is from a poor family.
-Drama Wiki

I tell you, this is one the best dramas I've ever seen. It made me motivated to study. Haha. Lovette. Grabe, it makes me want to study in Harvard tuloy..while falling in love.. Ganong level. Yahoo :)

And the best thing about Love Story in Harvard? It's nonetheless Kim Tae Hui. She's really very pretty, I tell you. As in super crush ko sya. She's like the prettiest of all the prettiest for me :) Hay, if lalaki lang ako, I would want to marry her someday! Hahaha.

Don't you think she's perfect? :)

OMG! I CRUSH HER. LOL.

Aside from "Love Story in Harvard", I also watched the Kmovie, "My Tutor Friend". Ang verdict ko naman dito....it's one of the most cutest Korean movies I've ever seen! Hay, nakakainlove and nakakatawa sya, swear! If you'll think about it nga, may pagka-similar sya sa "My Sassy Girl". As a matter of fact, this movie was said to be a sequel to My Sassy Girl. YOU SHOULD WATCH IT!!!!

The story is about a man Kim Ji-Hoon (Kwon Sang-Woo) from a wealthy family who should be in his second year of college, is still finishing his highschool requirements. His family hire a tutor Choi Su-Wan (Kim Ha-Neul) for him who is his own age but she comes from a poor background.

Cutest movie on the planet!

OMG. OMG. O-M-G. Eto pa ang isa sa mga ultimate crushes ko! *Faints* He is Kwon Sang-Woo from the more familiar "Stairway to Heaven". Haaay, I love him na talaga. I'm willing to give my heart and soul and ~~body~~ to him. Hahaha. Just kidding kiddos :))

Yummy :) LOL.

He's my soulmate. Heehee.

That's all for now guys! I'll be doing the plugging thing for my friends nominated at the Candy Teen Blog Awards tomorrow. I'll be visiting your blogs and other blogging activity next time. Don'tchuworry, I'll also be returning comments and answer messages in my tagboard pretty soon :)

I MISS YOU ALL!!!

Return of the Comeback Part III? Errr.

2008-04-04T08:06:00.000-07:00

Oh yeeessss! I'm back again.. for real! Yipee! But this time I'm not going to say that it's going to be for good coz I don't want to fool you guys, if you know what I mean. LOL. OMG! Oh shucks. The last time I blog was.. let me see that one.. okay.. March 14 and today is.. hu-whaaaat? Today is a freakin' Friday night, April 4 so that makes it like a freakin' 21 days that I was virtually dead in the blogosphere. Freakin' freaky huh? Poor me. Huhuhu.

To everyone, I'm really, really sorry for not replying to your messages in my tagboard or returning comments or whatsoever. Maybe some of you would call me madaya for that matter but kasi nga diba, I have summer class and I've been veeeerrryyy very busy in school. As in super busy that I can't even find time to check my friendster or multiply. Oh diba? What a helpless situation. Tsk tsk. LOL. Well seriously, I'm super kaduper busy with my studies coz as I've told you before guys, I want to take my studies into the next level seriousness and moreover, I'm currently on the process of bringing back my usual-old-self that's more determined and goal-oriented. NAKS. I want to become a more productive person so I have to minimize my internet usage on school days except only if it's for scholastic purposes but of course, that wouldn't mean that I will totally forsake this crappy-for-not-being-updated-that-much-blog because I want to keep this till I grow old and have my children and apos. Hahaha. It's now your cue to throw me some bulok tomatoes there. LOL. Most probably, I'll be scheduling all my net surfing and blogging activities on Thursday or Friday night. Half-day lang kasi ako every Thursdays and I have no class on Fridays. Hmmm. Well syempre... It depends on my mood :p

So there you go, while you are out there enjoying the heat of the summer (or not) in beaches or wherever or just simply bumming around and gluing your face in front of the computer the whole day of the rest of your summer vacation, yours truly is struggling to wake up early for my friggin' Microbiology and Parasitology class in the morning (8-11) and (now this is pathetic) trying so hard not to be sleepy in my NCM 100 class in the afternoon (1-6) because I know, you know and we all know that most of us, if not all, feels a bit sleepy after eating our lunch also known as siesta.

Oh my gulay, I should know better now that nursing students knows "no vacation". I mean, I should be erasing the word "vacation" in my vocabulary because starting this semester up to the next 2 years of my academic career (naks), I'll be vacation-less. Damn it.

***

Hey Cindy, my love :) Thanks for the tag! Aughh.. You're a super friend na talaga coz you know exactly how to make me happy. LOL.

List down ten things that recently made you happy. Then tag it to ten other people to spread the love.

1. My Dell Inspiron 1501 my mom bought me for my 18th birthday. FINE. It's not the most latest and techie-est laptop in the world but whatever okay? "I got it from my momma" so I couldn't care less. Hehe. Ayos ba?

2. My 1 hour and a-half walkathon experience with my cousins Ate Melanee and Ate Leilanie last Holy Week vacation. Hahaha. Lakas ng trip namin eh. We woke up very early and then we started our so-called morning walk to Tondol, a white sand beach in our island town. We didn't swim or anything. Basta when we arrived there, konting pahinga and sight-viewing then umuwi na kami. Hahaha.

Fulfilled. lol.

3. My summer class particularly my Micro Para and NCM 100 subjects. Okay I know it's ironic that my summer class actually made me happy despite that I've been bitchin' about all those rants about my summer class but yeah, I'm having a lot of fun despite that it's very stressful. Mam Alvarez is probably one of my greatest stessors right now but I still love her. I like it tough eh.

4. Enchanted Cave in Bolinao, Pangasinan. My family and I (of course) went there last Holy Week vacation, Sabado de Gloria.

Almost Paradise

Be enchanted

Look at my posing. lol.

The Family's gonna have F-U-N.

Inside the cave. Super hot! Grrr.

5. Eden's 18th Birthday Celebration and the Tabing Ilog Adventure in Sta. Maria Pangasinan Uhm, when was this naba? Tsk. I forgot the date na eh. Anyway, it was a really, super fun experience nung bday celebration ni Eden, a very good friend of mine. Sleepover kami sa house nila and then nung morning, we went to the Tabing Ilog (I also forgot the name of the ilog). Since I'm too lazy already to make kwento every single detail, let these pictures speak for itself nalang :)

The Debutant and Moi

[Insert Tabing Ilog song by Barbie Almalbis here]

I'm walking on sunshine

Walk with me?

Amazing Adventure

Izan and Moi :)

6. My obsession of becoming "maputi" again. Hahaha. I'm not saying I'm maputi before or what but now kasi I feel like I'm so maitim na coz nung outing namin ng choir sa PTA, nag-volleyball kami buong maghapon under the striking heat of the sun. I had no care in the world that time kahit na tanghaling-tapat pa ata yun basta all I know was that I am enjoying so much na I barely forgot na mahal ang Belo Essentials nowadays. Hahaha :D

I WANT YOU BADLY! lol.

7. Our role play activity in NCM 100 about the History of Nursing in other lands. We got the Intuitive Period and the outcome was well.. okay. Hmmm.. Wait! I think it's better than okay coz we got the highest score, 90. Not bad, right? Hahaha. Whatever.

8. My latest Candy Issue. I know you'll love it too :)

It's Blair on the April Cover!

9. My new barkada, Ate Apple. Oh Shine, you were asking me to make bida you on my blog so here it is :p

Dude Shine and Dude Apple

10. Finally. Since wala na akong maisip (hehe), eto nalang: My most favorite blue dress. I've worn it like a hundred times already. Hehehe. Just kidding kiddos :)

Now I'm tagging everyone in my link list!

May napansin ba kayo? Hehehe. Ginawa ko syang update. Tama ba naman yun? Haha. Wise ako eh. Beh :p Well that's all for now, fellas! I'll do the blog hopping and returning comments or whatever SOON. I swear, I will. More stories coming up so stay tuned.

I know you missed me.

xoxo, Apple

Listen up y'all, cause this is it
The beat that I'm bangin' is de-li-cious

Updates:

Starting Monday next week before the Holy Week vacation , I'm going to be very busy in school and in Ulnos so you may (or may not) see me update my blog that much. I really want to take my studies seriously (to the next level seriousness) because I want to give my grades a total make over especially now that I couldn't take my Micro Para and NCM 100 as a joke ever coz definitely, they're not. Please bear with me.
Mia and J ems would probably understand this since mga nurses na sila. Haha. Anyway, speaking of our resident RN bloggers, I think above anyone else, they are the ones who have all the right and privilege in this world to blog as much as they want coz they don't have to problem school anymore. Hahaha. I so envy them :( LOL.

I bought myself a March copy of Uno Magazine yesterday. Of course I do know it's a men's magazine but it's not what you're thinking. LOL. It's also not that I've ditched off my Candy magazines and that I've switched to Cosmopolitan, Glamour, FHM and Uno Magazine for that matter but (okay, here it is) I just did buy one because of this one major reason...

Ellen Adarna, my most favorite Candy Girl is on the cover!!!

Behold and see her evolution from sweetie...

To hottie...

OMG! That was waayyy too H-O-T to handle!

Notice to the Public:

Note: Yeah, I know I'm such a big fat liar when I said that this is not a blog post but I've changed my mind. Hahaha. Weird ko noh? The Notice to the Public section can be found now in the sidebar of my blog (for the meantime only) to give way for this post so you can comment about it. Baka din kasi maguluhan kayo :)

Okay, so now you understand. You may now proceed reading this whole thing. LOL.

# 1: I've changed my layout...finally. Waddaya about it guys? Is it just ok or what? Please let me know so I can do something about it. Malakas kayo sakin eh :)

# 2: Prior to # 1, upon changing my layout, due to an unconscious negligence and my semi-ignorance to these things (it's actually my first time), The Beautiful Mind, my Official Link List was lost, deleted or whatsover which would mean that some of you (a lot, actually) will not be able to see their links for the meantime. My sincerest apologies.

Unfortunately, it's totally gone now except for the links in "The Glamorous" section, previously named Highly Recommended. Those people in that list are some of my closest friends here, my blogkadas so I have memorized their sites already, kaya ayun. I didn't see that coming, really, kaya wala sanang magtatampo or what kasi lahat kayo, love ko :)

Believe me, I have backed up everything so perfectly before I finally clicked that 'Save Template' button so please don't raise your eyebrows on me coz I'll do my very best naman to make it up to you, to find your sites and link you again...from scratch. Yeah, that's the deal.

Tck. Sayang. I have 100+ links pa naman na ata :(

So yun, if ever napadaan kayo dito and you'll be searching for your link (and you couldn't), please let me know so I can add you up ASAP. That' a promise.

I'm really sorry for the inconvenience.

# 3: Don't forget to comment on my posts. Yes, this is the most important thing you have to know. LOL. You know where and you know how. Less than a minute of you're precious time won't hurt :)

# 4: Beware of hackers. Misha's blog (and multiply?) has been hacked din ata according to our sister, Mia. I'm not sure okay but I'm worried of course. Before it was Cindy's multiply and now it's Misha's blog. We'll never know who will be their next victim so be careful. Be very, very careful guys.

Edited: It's confirmed already. Misha's blogspot, multiply, 2 friendster accounts and for heaven's sake, even her emails was hacked.

I mean, WTH? What is dead wrong with this world nowadays? Tsk tsk tsk.

GET A LIFE, LOSERS! BACK OFF and leave my girls alone! Please lang noh?

LOL. So yun nga, I was like, "Why not, poknat?". Brilliant idea! Haha. It looks like the coolest kids in town have come up with the coolest-idea-ever! Oh, may aangal? Bwahaha.

Can you imagine how supah cool and fun is that to meet your closest friends in the cyberworld someday? I'm pretty, very so sure (haha. forgive my redundancy :p) that would be a looot of fun!!! As in 100% fun.

Hey, I'm serious okay? I'm dying to see you all in person! Hahaha.

10 Random Things/ 10 Things People Don't Know About Me

1. I'm currently applying to be the EIC (Editor-in-Chief) of our school's publication. Yeah, I know it doesn't seems like I'm qualified or something because I'm not that good in writing as you do (haha. just kidding) plus I do not have the perfect grammar but yeah, believe it or not, I took the guts of intending to be the EIC.

FYI: I've been in ULNOS, the Official Student Publication of L-NU for one year now in where I'm currently the Feature Editor.

Lord, let thy will be done.

Prayers, that's what I need from you all right now so can please do you me this little favor of including me in your prayers tonight or the next night or the next, next night? Haha. I will definitely appreciate if you do :) Btw, our Associate Editor and Managing Editor are my fellow candidates in the EIC spot (rawr) and we'll be having our exams from Monday to Tuesday (double rawr) so I'm really getting nervous now. Please, please, please pray for me!

2. I know you already this but beside my ULNOS, I'm also a part of our University's Choral, the L-NU Choral or in other words, I am supergirl. *Very long silence* Screw up, I'm joking man! Hahaha. BIG FAT JOKE okay? Not funny actually. Why? Take it from Spiderman, "With great power comes with great responsibilities." Okay, you got my point. LOL.

Find me in this picture :p

On the contrary of my being a Choir member, yes I can sing but I'm not that really good as what Ishna and Jems might be expecting as of this moment coz fyi again, they've been bugging me to post a video with me singing. Kamusta naman yun? Hahaha. Well girls, CHILAX. Don't worry coz your request might be granted soon. Whahaha. Feeler ako eh.

3. I had my hair rebonded twice already. My hair was naturally curly before kaya naman for a change, I decided to have my hair rebonded.

Virgin hair no more :p

4. Chace Crawford is the man of my dreams! Errr. Do I need to explain that? LOL.

5. I hate loud people especially those who cannot control the modulation of their voice. I mean, diba? Imbyerna. It's soooo annoying lang kasi masakit sa tenga. Ako kasi, I don't want to be scolded or masigawan in any forms because I believe na lahat ng bagay ay nadadaan sa magandang usapan. Okay that was a replay. I've said this na kasi before in my previous post. Better not talk nalang if you're gonna make sigaw. Haha. Conyotic tone ba?

6. I want to become a Community Health Nurse someday. Yes, among all the fields in nursing, this is what I really wanted to be. Well, I also want to be a hospital nurse but I have this strong feeling na sa community ang calling ko. Before kasi, I don't want to take up nursing coz I wanted to become a Social Worker. Yup, I had dreams before of becoming a volunteer social worker but of course ayaw ng parents ko. So yun, I've realized later on when we were having our duties na in the community that I'm a social worker na rin in a way kaya naman right now, I'm enjoying my nursing course :)

7. Sinigang is my favorite-food-of-all-times! Hmmm...

8. I love sunset more than sunrise. I don't know the exact explaination to this pero there is something really unique about sunset eh. Uhm, maybe its drama? Haha. I'm not sure :p

9. I'm an Olsen Twins fan. Haha. Corny.

10. I love you all. Hahaha. Wala na akong maisip eh. Sorry :D Ie-edit ko nalang to kapag may naisip na ako, okay?

The Return of the Comeback Part I

2008-03-09T01:40:00.000-08:00

After 253485960 years

*Drum rolls please*

I'm Back!!!

After almost 2 weeks, 13 days to be exact, of being on a hiatus status or shall I say, "mysterious disappearance" in the blogging world, I'm finally back and I'm back for good. Hopefully. Let's toast to that, shall we? Haha.

Yayayaaay! I really missed everyone as in super missed! I know, I know. I've been a bad girl. I'm really sorry for not leaving any trace or notice that I'll be gone for quite a while. 2 weeks is quite a while right? Haha. I swear, I totally have no intentions of forsaking and abandoning this blog okay so let me explain myself. Haha. Whatever.

Anyway, before that, I just read my tagboard and I was very, very overwhelmed to read messages like:

apple! i'm back already. wala ka pa rin? :( miss you- Ishna
apple! nammiss kna ng blogosphere! hope everythings okay wit u :)- Cindy
apple, udate na :p- Superym
apple namimiss na kita..:)- Mia
Update ka na Apple! :)- Tric

Aww, very touching and heart-warming :) I was actually teary-eyed while reading all your messages. Promise. No sugar. Haha. You know what? I've realized just now that more than blogging and anything else, I MISS YOU ALL the most especially my "barkadas" in the blogosphere, those who have been very close to me and those people who loves me and my blog. Well, you should know by now that I love you more :) I haven't seen all my messages yet, maybe I'll just go over them later. Thank you very much for keeping in touch.

So finally, THE REASONS:

The overused reason. Drum rolls again please... I was super busy. Haha. Yeah as in super busy. Busy because of our Final Exams, book reports, projects, paper works and the usual school stuffs.
We moved. I mean, we moved to our new condo unit. Haha. Joke. Apartment lang. Ate and moi became very busy moving and fixing our stuffs to our new-and-improved home. Though our old and expensive apartment's more convenient since it's just near our school and is nearer to the commercial areas, I like it here better coz it's more spacious and we can be able to get a taste of fresh air here than before. It'll be a change of scenery for me for the next 2 years :) I'll show some pics of our new home soon.
In connection with reason # 2, since we moved, our internet connection was also relocated. It took weeks before we got connected again because hindi agad naasikaso because of, as I've said, we were busy packing and moving our things.
Emotional problems. Whahaha. I had gone through a lot these past few weeks that I was gone. I'll just post about it next time.

So there you have it. Now you should all know that this blog is still existing and yours truly is still alive so please don't name me Casper, the friendly ghost or whatsoever. Haha.

And now for the Updates Uplate...

Update Uplate # 1: Summer Class '08.

The classes started March 5 but it was just orientation and stuffs. The real battle will be starting tomorrow so wish me luck guys. I have to prepare and braise myself for the curse of my nursing course in on sight. Haha. Just kidding.

Well seriously, I have to really, really study hard and squeeze my brain juices for my NCM 100 and Micro Para this summer class. FYI: Microbiology and Parasitism, according to many, can make your worlds go merry-go-round. Nakakabaliw daw. Creepy huh? Oh Micro Para, please be good to me :D

Oh brighter side.. Sudden change of emotion. Oh my gosh! I'll be having hospital duties very soon so you better tune in and watch out for me wearing my white uniform. I'm sooo sooo excited.

Update Uplate # 2: The DVD Marathon

Since we had no internet connection for the past few weeks, Dimple (my older sister's name) and moi went on a DVD marathon. (We have cute nicknames noh? Dimple and Apple. Haha.)

AWESOME.

If you're a die-hard Beatles fan, surely gonna love and crave for this one. And since me and Ate are not, hindi kami nakarelate masyado. Haha. But all in all, it's one of the best and interesting movies I've watched so far. It's a work of art, I tell you. I am 100 % sure that this movie's gonna be a hands-down-hit! Never ever dare not to watch it! More info about this movie here.

My favorite line in this movie: "Screw up, I'm joking man!"

Who in this world doesn't know A Ben Stiller? Next to Adam Sandler, I think he's one of funniest guy I know. (Yep, I know him as in were friends. Haha.) Sorry about that Ben but Adam Sandler is still my number one favorite comedian of all times! Haha.

Okay back to Ben, so far I've watched T here's Something About Mary, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, Meet the Parents and its sequel Meet the Fockers and I could say that he's freakin hilarious! More info about this movie here.

The Notebook vs. My Sassy Girl

It's a TIE.

To the recommendation of my sister dearie Ishna, I watched My Sassy Girl ora mismo! Now I have to go and blame her because this movie is now tied with my all-time-fave, The Notebook. Haha. Just kidding sis. Love yah :)

Anyway, the movie is really good. It's not like the usual love stories I've watched, the story is the most unique among all. In fact, it's exactly my-kind-of-love-story. Well yeah, I'm so happy to finally watch it coz it seems like everyone have watched it except me...again. Bwahahaha. Again? Lagi nalang akong napag-iiwanan pansin nyo? Huhuhu. Ako ako ako. Lagi nalang ako. LOL.

More updates next time ok coz WTF, hindi ako makapagload ng pictures!!! What's up with this Google Error huh? Can somebody help me out here? Errr... Naman oh. Walang pakisama. I hope ok na later coz it's kinda freakin' me out y'know!

P.S. I'll be returning comments, messages, links, tags and whatsover later after my class so sit back, relax and see a movie. Abangan ang mga susunod na kabanata :p LOL.

Till here guys. See you when I see you.

XoXo, Apple

Someone to look up to

2008-02-26T18:15:00.000-08:00

I guess each one of us has our own sets of persons in mind that we've been admiring and idolizing. They are some of the extraordinary being who have been such great influences to our lives. They have become a great part and reasons of who we are right now and what are we going to be in the future.

For me, it has been a kind of “essential” to think of those persons that I would like to set as examples, not or never to imitate or copy of course but as what I've said, to make them examples and inspirations because I believe that in one way or the another, they'll be helping me become a better, more goal-driven individual.

Instead of the title, "Top 10 Most Beautiful People Living" I have changed it to "Someone to look up to" coz a lot of my friends might protest for not being included. Haha. Peace out :p

Warning: Pretty-Hot-And-Tempting Girls Ahead (in random order)

Can you tell me who's the fairest of them all? :p

My Super Mom in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Picture taken here ♥

Of course above anyone else, I look up to my Mom the most because she's the Bestest-Mom-Ever! I'm so lucky to have her as my mom and on the other way around, she's lucky because I'm her daughter. LOL. Well, I don't really need to elaborate or exaggerate y'know. I love her so much and that will explain it all :)

Okay, so you're claiming that you're Mom's the best but you should have read the rules first. No objections people, my Mom's da' Best! Bwahaha! Just kidding!

Chesca Sumilang as Audrey Hepburn
Picture taken here ♥

3rd-year BS Psychology in UPD. HS Valedictorian. Prom Queen. Dagupan's 12 Prettiest. Model. And so on and so forth... In short, she's perfect. I mean, almost.

I met Ate Chesca in an Essay Writing Contest back in HS. I was 2nd year that time and she's 3rd year. I always see her in quiz bees and other academic contests here in Dagupan but that was the first time that I actually got the chance to talk to her. I was starstruck dude! Haha. Joke.

I tell you guys, she's super pretty, smart and friendly. I must admit that what I know about her are all superficial and mababaw, but still, I look up to her simply because she has it all! Could it be her milk? Haha. Haayy... I wouldn't really wonder why there so many people wanting to be her by pretending to be her. Yep, I'm talking about her numerous posers. She have lots of posers or psycho posers rather flocking around the net so don't be fooled and better be careful coz there's only one Chesca Sumilang!

The prettiest EIC, Ate Anna
Picture taken here ♥

Ate Anna is the Editor-in-Chief of our School Publication. She's 4th-year now and almost graduating taking up BSN here in L-NU. She's the longest-running EIC as of now and for me, that's just amazing coz despite the grueling Nursing life (everybody knows that) and her almost impossible schedule because of her hospital duties, etc she still managed and survived to be the EIC. No one can ever replace her in Ulnos :)

I look up to Ate Anna of her simplicity. Simple yet charming. I love her for being that coz for me, "Simplicity is a Virtue". She doesn't even have to try to be beautiful or whatsoever coz it just comes out to her naturally. In fact, she's my fashion icon! Haha. *Crossing-fingers* I hope she's not reading this though. LOL.

She was never judgmental on people. She doesn't conclude things without being sure of it. She won't agree on things just because everyone agrees or in other words, she has her own decisions. And most especially, I admire Ate Anna for her very, very long string of patience for Ulnos. She knows what I'm talking about. Haha.

My Childhood Bestfriend, Jeanne
Picture taken here ♥

Jeanne and I were classmates and best of friends during our preschool and early grade-school years in LICS. We were the closest pipz during that time. Yeah, as in super close that we even write each other short notes using our scented Hello Kitty stationeries even though we're just a few chairs away from each other. Silly noh? Haha.

I look up to Jeanne because she's very beautiful (haha) and she never forgets. Although we didn't had the chance to see each other grow up and mature since as I've told you guys before, I use to transfer schools a lot, that didn't became a hindrance to our friendship. When I transferred school, I was in Grade 3 then, Jeanne and I were the best pen pals in the world!

Our constant communication did the job for our friendship that's why up to now, I know we're still the best of friends that we were ever since. Though a lot of things have changed on both of us like we totally have different worlds now, different school and set of friends, I know in my heart that the Jeanne Bernadette Rivera I used to know before is still the same person now. She was the very first person who taught me what bestfriends should be no one can ever replace her for that.

My Ate Kat
Picture taken here ♥

Ate Kat and I just became close recently and I could tell now that she's one of the sweetest and nicest person I've ever met! I swear, as in Jawbreaker sweet. LOL. Everytime we'll bump into each other in school, she'll always give me a hug and make beso-beso to me and that's just nice of her. Whenever Ate Kat does that, I felt loved, as in super loved. Simple acts like that coming from her never fails to make me "awww" and I look up to her for that :)

The Unbeatable Top 1 Dean's Lister, Renee
Picture taken here ♥

Renee had been my classmate during my freshmen year here in college and I can say that I've learn so much from her. Renee and Charisse or shall I say the "Promil kids" were the first persons I get to be friends with this college and I'm so glad I found them. They've influenced me so much particularly in my studies because those two geeks were very, very, very studious and grade conscious kaya ayun, I felt the pressure to study din and eventually, nahawa ako. Haha. Just kidding :p

I look up to Renee coz she taught me how to be fair on everything. When it comes to studies, she'll always remind me that you should get the grade you deserve, that you shouldn't be dependent on other people coz in the long run, it's just yourself that you can depend on. Renee always reminds me to do my best in everything coz there might be no second chances, that there might be no next time. She's one of my greatest inspirations to strive hard in school.

The Gorgeous Beauty, Jamaica
Picture taken here ♥

At first, I thought Jamaica was a spoiled, snobbish rich kid who always get what she wants. I had thoughts like that probably because of her sosyalera status (haha), that she's Inglishera and all that or in other words, "unreachable and untouchable" but I was definitely wrong. When Jami and I became classmates last semester and eventually get to know each other, that's the time I knew I had to stop believing in the saying that "what you see is what you get".

I look up to this girl not because she's like the "it girl" of our school: beautiful, gorgeous, exceptionally smart and she has almost everything but because despite that she has all the reasons to brag about what she have and be a snob...she never did. She's like the most down-to-earth persons I've ever met and that's just amazing right?

And because I'm such a good friend... Hahaha.

Shiela Ragos

Sunshine Karisma Frias and her BF (?)

I look up to them coz they're my friends.
Nothing more. Nothing less. PERIOD.

To My Dearest and Most Precious Ate Shiela,

It's been a month or two since you finally decided to go abroad and work. You almost left us without even saying goodbye and we're ~~despising~~ you for that up to now you biatch! LOL. Well seriously, it's been kinda hard for us to adjust, most especially for me since it's like 50 % of the day that we're together (excluding school hours). The sem has officially ended and now we're missing you so badly :)

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, always remember that we're always here for you okay? We're just an IM away :p I know you're a thousand miles away from us but please keep in mind that you'll always stay in our hearts—and that's a promise. Don't you ever forget that we'll be your girls-for-life and at the same time, don't you forget our chocolates and pasalubongs okay? We'll definitely wait for your comeback!

We miss you so much Ate Shiela!!! (L-R: Shine, Shiela, Izan and Me)

Because something has always been missing when you left...

I miss my Chowking buddy, I miss my bestfriend :(

...coz our Chowking nights will never be the same w/o you :p

***

I promise to post a more decent update next time :)

But before I sign off I just want let all the ~~crazy~~ and wonderful people know to this...

Are you happy being single?

YES I DO :p

You have a full, fun life. And you definitely don't need love to be content.

Of course, being single can get you down a little. Especially when you've been single for a while.

But you know how to be patient and wait for the right person. You're life is too good to settle for anything!

Are You Happy Being Single?

So can I say hoorraaayy for the last time?

The Greatest Love Stories Ever Told

2008-02-17T02:25:00.000-08:00

Hey you, just some sort of a survey here :p

What are you're TOP 3 to 5 (if you're in the mood) most unforgettable movies that had made you cry? I hope you can still remember those. It can be a love story or anything, except for comedy movies of course. I mean, it's different when you cried out of laugher right? LOL. I would love to know what you think about it so just comment me for your answers. Woohoo. I'm so excited :)

NOTE: I'm encouraging (for my friends: "obliging") you to watch the videos down here for you to appreciate this particular post. Haha. Yeah, why not? LOL.

Well anyway, these are the trailers/scenes of my TOP 5 most unforgettable love stories of all times. These are the some of the "rare" movies that had never failed and will never fail to make me cry and give me some serious goosebumps every time I watch it.

Patience is a virtue so please be patient while waiting for the vids to load. I promise you, it's all worth it. Even if you have seen these movies in the past, it's different when you reminisce them. You'll gonna fall in love again after watching these maaann, I swear :)

Awww Movie # 1: The Notebook

Awww Movie # 2: Titanic

My Heart Will Go On (with dialogue)

Add to My Profile | More Videos

Awww Movie # 3: A Walk to Remember

Awww Movie # 4: 50 1st Dates

Awww Movie # 5: The Lake House

Oh sorry... It's just supposed to be 5 but let me add this one:

Awww Movie # 6: Serendipity

*Teary-eyed* I really, really, really love and crave for movies that can give me a good cry after watching it. As a matter of fact, I can only judge or conclude that the movie was good based on that. The harder I've cried, the better :p Hahaha. Lame as it may seem but I just believe that if you've found yourself crying after watching the movie or whatsoever, it only means that it has captured your heart and has it moved you. Am I making sense here? Well... I hope so :p

I know at this moment, you already know that I am such a sucker for romance. Or you can call me a "~~hopeless romantic~~" for that matter. I'm definitely cool with that :)

So how about you? What are you're TOP 3 to 5 most unforgettable movies that had made you cry? Let me hear it :)

RED is for ♥

2008-02-14T06:41:00.001-08:00

THE LOGIC: Today is Feb. 14 and Feb. 14 is Valentine's day. Valentine's day is commonly associated to hearts, flowers particularly roses & etc. Roses are red and figuratively speaking, the color of the heart is red. So I therefore conclude that the title of my post shall be a 3-letter word, RED. Haha. Whatever :p

This Heart's day ♥ the color red for me is for:

♥ The Red Alert for Blogspot blog/site owners (or whatever you may call it)

I've posted this with Joseph's permission (of course) to help him spread the news about the pop-ups he have been experiencing when visiting some Blogspot sites through his Kaspersky. I just want to share it to you because this info might be helpful in the future. Read on to understand what I'm talking about.

Blogspot.com l A Phising Site?

"Recently, I was browsing blogs through my blogroll, since most links I do have or linked up from my site was from blogspot.com. Before, it was all okay and no anti-spy alert will pop-up on my desktop from my installed internet security, Kaspersky Internet Security 6.0.2.666.

But a few days ago, was like 2 days ago, I experience pop-ups from my
security suite, emphasizing that the page I was trying to open is a
phishing site.

This is what the phishing alert looks like,

I really don’t know what happened to blogspot.com. I did conform my classmates about this incident but, they are afraid of doing so, and or their Kaspersky is blacklisted. I was also trying to contact blogspot but I wasn’t able to get their contact e-mail so I decided to place it on my blog, hoping for Blogspot can search this post and or put action to this matter."

After reading this in Joseph's blog I felt quite alarmed. I don't know about you but I'm a bit worried because who the hells knows if this can cause Blogspot users like me problems or trouble in the future right?

♥ The red headband of i know you all know who :p

I know, you're going Gaga over GG series and I'm not. I mean, not yet. LOL. Everyone's seems to be crazily talking about this Gossip Girl phenomenon especially by who else but non other you! Hahaha. Guess who??

I know you're crazy about the whole thing so "I know you'll love me if" if I'll be posting about something you're dying for and of course, it's no other than Blair Waldorf!

Picture taken here ♥

I saw this very interesting article about BW from this site and so now, for the sake of at least having a GG entry for this blog, I'm gonna post it here :p

HOW TO BE LIKE BLAIR WALDORF:

1. Try getting blue contacts and dyeing your hair very dark brown. You can blow dry or straighten it, as long as it's healthy and shiny. Blair is 5"4, with blue eyes and straight brown hair or sometimes might do loose waves depending on the occasion. At the start of the series, her hair is long, but then she gets it cut in a short style.
2. Dress preppy, but also a little bit sexy. If you can, get designer brands - some of Blair's favourites are Chloe, Marni, C&C California, Calvin Klein, True Religion, Seven, Dior, Habitual, and Missoni. Also, remember her favourite colour is shell pink, but she isn't obsessed with it - try to get a pink polo. Blair also loves cashmere, designer bags, and shoes. She has expressed her dislike for Target, so stay away from their clothes. Shop outlets, clearance sales and TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Loehmanns for the shoes and bags. Whatever you wear, make sure its hot and looks like what a Manhattan socialite would wear.
3. Be very smart and a perfectionist. Blair is at the top of her class, speaks French fluently, and excels at all of her subjects. Try not to ever fail anything. If you do, lock yourself in your room and feel sorry for yourself while watching "Breakfast at Tiffany's".
4. Don't be afraid to be mean, but do it discreetly. This means freezing out other people and spreading nasty rumors. Don't ever confront someone, or say some cheesy comeback, that's just desperate.
5. Play tennis, but don't get REALLY into it, remember it's just a fun hobby for Blair.
6. Go tanning with your friends, don't be afraid to sunbathe topless if you are on a private beach.
7. Be popular, or at least be the head of your group.
8. Go to/throw a lot of parties and functions.
9. Have a gorgeous, preppy boyfriend. He doesn't have to be smart, but he has to be VERY sexy and desired, as well as very preppy. Bonus points if he's rich and loves sailing.
10. Make a big deal out of everything other people do that annoys you, but rarely whine about yourself.
11. Try to stretch out fights for as long as they can last. Make sure they are the one to apologize.
12. Be a drama queen, but still remain cool. Don't cause a scene in public, but if your pissed off, make sure everyone else knows it!
13. Be confident. Know that you are always right.
14. You should never feel bored or deprived of attention. If it feels like your (LONG TERM) boyfriend is ignoring you, call them exessively, buy them presents and leave them notes until they pay you attention again. If you feel bored, either watch an Audrey Hepburn movie, go shopping/into the city, go get coffee with friends, read a magazine such as Vogue or Elle, take a bath with luxury products, go see a movie, or if you are DESPERATE watch TV.
15. Go on lots of really nice vacations! Don't camp or stay in a trailer, always insist on a great hotel, and don't go anywhere boring. Somewhere on the coast, or somewhere overseas/exotic is good.
16. ALWAYS get what you want, no matter what you have to do to get it.
17. Blair isn't a slut, she doesn't sleep around or dress like a desperate hoe. But she does dress sexy, for example leather pants, singlets, sexy dresses and tasteful miniskirts.

A Girl Raped in Dagupan

A girl went to a party and she ended up staying longer than planned, and had to walk home alone. She wasn't afraid because it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away. As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger. When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided to take it. However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he was waiting for her. She became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God's protection. Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her. When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely. The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there. Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep. Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story. The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him. She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed. The officer thanked Diane for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her. She asked if they would ask the man one question. Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her. When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she wasn't alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her." Amazingly, whether you believe or not, you're never alone. Did you know that 98% of teenagers will not stand up for God? Repost this as A GIRL RAPED IN (your city) if you truly believe in God. PS: God is always there in your heart and loves you no matter what "If you deny me in front of your friends, I shall deny you in front of my Father"

STAND UP FOR HIM

93% wont repost this

Lets raise this number.

I love God

***

I have read this in the friendster bulletin a while back and I was moved by the thought of the message. I swear, it had touched me so much that it made me cry. It's a chain message (obviously) but I didn't mind because it's the message that I'm after for. I have a soft heart when it comes to things like these you know. Haha. Yeah right. Sorry about that again. Btw, Hannah, a schoolmate in grade school posted it.

Deep, deep sigh. I hate it like this but my memories suddenly comes back..

I was 7 or 8 years old back then when I became a born-again Christian, a very active one. Because I was living with my relatives who were active Christians too, I became deeply involved in Church activities and so at a meager age, I accepted God and slowly, not so long after, my life revolved inside the Church and with God.

I was in 5th grade when I transferred in a Christian school (FYI: I use to transfer schools at lot) and that's the point in my life where I felt closest to God. The foundation of my Christianity grew stronger and stronger. Later, my faith became indestructible, or so I thought.

Looking and comparing myself before and the present, I can say that I am a completely changed person. (Everybody changes right?) What I am now is a whole lot different from my life when I was younger. As a matter of fact, I couldn’t imagine myself now being a downright religious person talking to God everywhere, reading the Bible constantly and memorizing verses on my way home like I was before. Yeah, let me repeat that again, like I was before. LOL. It's nothing really. I just know that these days, that's kinda weird to imagine. Now I am wondering if my classmates back in grade school think I was...weird. Haha. I really think they did. Oh yes, how can I forget? How can I not remember them bullying me after our Wednesday devotions in school, calling me "Banal" and stuffs. (You know who you are. Haha)

With all of that, I could say that I was living an almost perfect Christian living. But that was before.

When my parents got separated, I told God and myself that if He will send a miracle for my Mom and Dad to reconcile, I'll offer my life to Him forever. I was so serious about it that I prayed for it every single night before I sleep, every Wednesdays of our Devotion in school and every Sundays in Church. I prayed hard that they'll be together and we'll have a happy family again and I never failed to include that in my prayers. I have never missed to pray about my Mom and Dad, about our family.

But after 2 years, I gave up. I lost my faith and turned my back to God or in the Christian term, I backslide. A lot of trials and problems came to test my faith and I failed to win over them.

Yes, I loss and now, I am lost. I lost my direction in life. I lost my faith in God. I lost...myself.

But despite all of these, I know that God has never forsaken me all these years. He never did to anyone. I know he has His reasons why he didn't answer my prayer about Mom and Dad. In the right time, eventually, I'll know why.

God has always been there for me. I know in my heart that He’s just waiting for me to come back home but...I think I’m not ready yet. It's been like 10 years since I turned back my faith so it’s not that easy on my part to turn back as well to the mistakes I’ve done and all the wrong decisions that I’ve made. (Oh gosh, it's hard to explain but i do hope you got my point.) A lot of things had happen in the past that I cannot change anymore. It's complicated but I know He'll understand.

I'm not yet prepared and I need more time to think things over.

I just hope it’s not yet too late when that time comes…

Randomness Attackkkkk!

2008-02-08T05:11:00.000-08:00

So there you go. I have no class today and I'm a total bummer. Please bear with me. Thankyouverymuch.

I have nothing to say really so for now, get a taste of my randomness. Ahh. This is life! Bwahaha.

Hear ye, hear ye! Cindy's (aka Francesca Milyonarya) weblog is now hosted at ilabyu.net so to all her numerous fans and online friends out there, kindly changed her links to cindy.ilabyu.net. Thanks a gazillion :D

She must be having a hard time right now telling all her friends online about it so as a good friend of hers (we're friends Cindy, right?) I would like to help her through my blog and I hope that it would be of great help to her.

And I'm doing this all because She.is.Blair.Waldorf. LOL.

I'm mishing Misha again. Hey girl! Are you still in the gym or what? Haha. Kidding kiddo. "Magupdate kana! LOL." Well actually, Cindy said those exact words to me. Hahaha. She obliged me to update (big joke) so I'm gonna try if it'll work on you. Whaha :D

Today is February 8 and 6 days to go before Valentine's day. Wait... Did I just say that aloud? Am i really counting days before Vday? Oh no, no. This is so not me! Haha.

Yeah, Valentines. Nah. Whatever. Screw Valentines day. I ~~dread~~ it's coming and I hope you all know why. LOL.

No MYMP pictures yet and for all you know, it's Shine's fault. Haha. I just can't wait to share it all to you :D

As for now, I'll just have to share to you my newest favorite song from MYMP, So Perfect. Very, very nice and happy song :) I heard it in the concert last Saturday (I'm so not over it yet :p) because I was too busy taking pictures of Juris. Haha. In the midway of the concert, I just found myself realizing that I wasn't focused on the concert anymore. Hahaha. Thanks to Kuya Renz for making me remember of this song. With all of these you can tell that I'm a HUGE fan of MYMP.

So here it is. So Perfect by MYMP. This song is Oh-So-Perfect! Oh-So-Lovette! Enjoy :)

In Your Dreams

2008-02-07T10:05:00.000-08:00

Apple wants this!

Ahem ahem. *Clears throat* I love you Mom and Dad. Hahaha.

Yeah right. LOL :p

I'm Losing Control

2008-02-06T06:21:00.000-08:00

Current mood: Pissed off

Damn it! I want this sem to end and I want it NOW.

I know, "hate" is a harsh word (quoted from Renee) but I'm really beginning to hate some of my classmates in our block particularly their group—and that's official. Believe me, I'm trying my best not to use the word hate or not to have this feeling of hatred to anyone but it's leaving me no choice since that's the only word I could think of at the moment to describe my feelings towards them. It's like I want to scream! They're really getting to my nerves and they're going way out of my league. Arghhh.. I'm really, really, really pissed off with the way they talk or approach me. I'm pissed off with their faces! They are so mean, rude and BASTOS.

Hey you! You know exactly who you are. If ever you're reading, kindly read this loud and clear: stop acting to me like as if you're someone or as if you know everything and stop trying my patience because I'm about to explode and blow your faces up in no time.I'm not asking you to respect me as your leader or what because I already have lots of respect for myself and for other people, my only point is that if you don't have anything good to say or you can't say things in a nice (or at least in a calm way) could you please just shut your mouth and better yet, GET LOST. I'm going through a lot of things right now and I'm facing a lot of problems so please just leave me alone and don't add yourself up to my burdens. I'm tired and sick of it.

***

Mood shift.

I'm glad it's the middle of the week and our Family Class was finally over. Thank goodness. Well I therefore conclude that the program has been somehow (?) successful except that our speaker was very, very late. The Mayor of San Fabian also attended the occasion.

Again, I'm too lazy to share more happenings in school and whatnots so for now, let the pictures do the talking.

Btw, mymp concert pics will be uploaded soon. I promise :)

The Lethal Injection. *Evil Grin*

Kuya Renz on John Carlo

Shine on Izan

Izan on Shine

Son, Ruben, Shine and Me

Misha you're not alone. I hate cameras too! LOL.

Pan Pan! You're so cute :) Whaaa! I want a pet dog na rin!

THE ORANGE COUNTRY

my pimples sucks. deal with it :p

***

After that hate post, let's get into the opposite side of it. This time around, I'll be talking about LOVE :D

Meet my new love, Pan Pan. He's a very, very adorable pug of my Thai neighbor, New. Now I'm serious that I want a pet dog! Yeah, I'm falling in love with a dog and I think he does too! The feeling is mutual. LOL.

So this is my first-ever personal video taken yesterday. There's nothing special about this video. You can only here my cute voice talking to Pan Pan. Kidding.

PS. Pan Pan speaks English so I have to speak English too. Any problem with that? LOL.

The MYMP Experience

2008-02-02T11:47:00.000-08:00

Woohoo! Grabe mga friends kakagaling ko lang nanood ng concert ng MYMP sa Astrodome. Kakauwi ko nga lang ngayon kasi around 12 na natapos ang concert.

Hahaha. At talagang hindi na ako makapaghintay na ikwento noh? Inaantok na ako pero gusto ko nang ikwento ngayon habang its fresh pa sa mind ko. Baka mawala sa memories ko. Hehe. Tsaka parang news reporting kasi yan eh: serve it while it's still hot :D

Weew! It was a blast mga dude! Super kaduper ENJOY talaga. Sulit na sulit ang 200P na entrance fee :p I will never regret na nanood ako ng concert kesa magtype para sa research paper namin. Lol. Hmmp. Bukas na yun. I mean, mamaya. Umaga na pala. Haha. Sorry :D

Ano kasi, 1-time experience lang to mga dude. Malay mo, diba? Baka di na sila magconcert ulit dito sa Dagupan. Haha. (Ang OA ko naman) 1st time ko din palang manood ng concert kaya sobrang excited ang lola mo! Pramis! As in ngayon lang talaga.

KJ much? Not much. Haha. Ang totoo nga nyan, I'm an outgoing type of person, yung tipong always on the go pero pag mga rock bands and the like, nagpapass ako kasi parang nakakatamad. I mean, duh. Ayoko talaga...kahit ilibre mo pa ako. Lol. I told myself kasi na if it's not MYMP, di bale nalang. I swear. Matutulog nalang ako. Haha. I have never liked to watch such concerts not unless it's MYMP. Yeah boi! Maka-MYMP talaga ako forever eversince they're starting palang, since nung pinakauna nilang song, "A Little Bit" hanggang ngayon na sikat na sikat na sila.

I'm with Shine pala kanina with her family. Yup, naki-join ako sa kanila since tinatamad daw si ate. Haha. Alam nyo, ang KEWL talaga ng parents ni Shine kasi game na game pa silang manood ng concert kasama ng mga anak nila. Aww.. So sweet :) Nakakainggit talaga ang family ni Shine.

So yun, mga front act muna bago ang MYMP. 3 bands lahat before the main event. Unang nagperform ang Noodles, yung band ni Kuya Renz (naks naman ang "Crazy for you") then yung Fragile, band nila Kuya Oti, Associate Editor ng Ulnos na hindi ko kinaya ang rocker mode ever! Lol. Parang hindi lang kasi ako sanay :p Haha. And yung last band, I forgot the name pero what I can remember is that agaw-eksena ang performance nila kanina. Haha. Medyo scary and weird sila eh. May sumulpot pang mga mukhang gangsta (whatever) out of the blue. Tawang-tawa kami ni Shine kung alam nyo lang. Hahaha.

Edit: Impro band daw yung name ng last band according to Kuya Renz and I knew it! Nakadrugs nga daw ang mga loko :p Sheesh.

Sa monday na ang mga pics kasi low-bat ang digicam ko kaya andun lahat ng mga pics kay Shine. Darn it! Asar ako. Nadala ko nga yung cam, hindi ko rin naman nagamit. So stupid ko kasi, nakalimutan kong palitan ng battery. Tck tck. Kung kelan may mga important occasions or what dun naman walang battery or nakalimutan ang memory card. Kamusta naman yun diba? For the second time around na to ah. Sigh. Sigh. Sigh. I told you, malas ako this week :p

Lesson for the day: always check the battery and memory card of your digicam.

Whaaa! Grabe mga friends! Ang galing-galing talaga ni Juris, I swear! I love her and her voice to the nth power! Fan girl much? Oo naman and I wouldn't deny that :p Hayyy.. Kung ganon lang sana ang boses ko kay Juris.. Hehe. Dream on! Grabe, it's just Juris's angelic voice that can make goosebumps all over my body. (Tama ba yung pagkasabi ko? Ah bahala na. Heehee) Amazing talaga, pramis :D

We didn't had the chance na makapagtake ng picture with her. Kuya Renz did. Inggit akooo! Andami kasing mga marshalls. Pero kahit na, I had the chance to see her naman face-to-face. Bheh :p I can't believe I saw her that close, as in really close. As in nasa harap ko na siya. We took lots of pictures while she's performing at meron ding super close up. Watch out for the pics soon :)

Here's more: nahawakan ko yung hands ni Jurisss! Pwede na akong mamatay. Hahaha. Fan na fan ang dating. Yuck. Lol.

Hoy Shine naaasar ako sayo! Ikaw lang ang may evidence na nakapag-shake hands ka kay Juris! I haaaatte you!!! Hehe.

Well anyway, yun lang naman so far. To sum up, I LOVE MYMP, I LOVE JURIS and super nagenjoy ako kanina. NakakaStarstruck :) Talk about the MYMP syndrome, I can't stop singing MYMP songs inside my mind. Haha.

PS. Edited na po to kasi inaantok na talaga ako kagabi kaya ngayon ko palang talaga nabasa yung mga pinagsusulat ko :p

Good morning to everyone!!!

The 30 minute post

2008-02-01T11:47:00.000-08:00

For the past few weeks, I must confess that I've been overly obsessing myself to blogging and sort of things like that in which, if you can notice, the updates are posted almost everyday. With a maximum of 4-5 posts a week, how-do-you-think-was-that? Hmm.. Most probably that's because a lot of things had happened to me last week like those mixed emotions, outrageous events and stressful encounters with people in school that's why I can't help myself to blog and tell the whole world about it. As you know (if you care to know or the hell you care to read my previous posts), this blog has been my one and only outlet for now. Well at least for now. Yes, I do have friends (and I have a lot) but I've decided not to bother them with my own problems not because I don't consider them anymore as friends or they aren't good friends or they aren't willing to listen but because I believe that we all have our own problems.

My friends have problems too, I guess. Hahaha.

So where am I? Oh. But this week is gonna be different since finals is just around the corner. *Deepest sigh ever* I've been busy this past few days because of my overwhelming pending school stuffs that needs to be done plus the unending freakin' more that awaits me. And since I can't settle anymore to sit down and glue my face in front of the computer longer than the usual especially during weekends, I'll be trying my best to do my posts for a maximum of 30 minutes. Yeah right!

I mean, why not? Like a 30 minute challenge. Lol. Do you think that's fast enough or that's still lame slow? Tsk tsk. My poor typing skill is to blame ok! Haha. Very lame it is :p

It's been a week already since my last entry so I felt the need to update or else the thoughts and memories will blow in my mind and I ϋber missed blogging you know. It's Friday night and it's time to blog! Haha.

30 minutes? Let's see. Bwahaha. The timer starts...

Warning: Taglish blog ahead. Random, very random.

Hello Cindy :)

Haha. Random agad :p

Saturday

Sabado night, it was Pherica's 18th birthday and I was sooo late. The party started at around 5 pm according to the invitation (the one that I only had the chance to see nung andun na ako sa mismong venue. nyaks) and there I came at 7 pm. Talk about a grand entrance. The good thing was, I was still able to catch up and gave my speech. Too bad that I can't be able to post our pictures because the stupid me forgot the memory card of my digicam inside my laptop. WTH?!

Kaasar talaga! Sayang ang Kodak moments. Haha. Tck. Andun pa naman yung mga super loved and missed kong mga HS friends to the nth power. Parang that night was like a reunion-slash-debut-in-one of our barkada from way back. I missed them so much talaga, as in. It's been like forever since I last saw most of them except for my bessy Ching since we always get to see each other in school. Kulang lang ang mga ever pasaway na sila Dexie and Rose Ann. Hayy.. Sayang talaga :(

Sunday

I’m back to Dagupan. ASAP was live in the City Mall. Wala lang :p

Monday

Last quiz na namin sa HC lecture. Yehey :)

Kami ni Son2 ang unang nagdemo ng IM and Skin testing sa RLE and WTF?! What a traumatizing experience talaga! I cried with all my heart my friends, I swear. Umiyak talaga ako ng sobra. Naging super laughing stuff siguro ako ng mga classmates ko. Akala nila siguro takot ako or something pero I’m not. No, no.

Nakakahiya ba na umiyak ang isang 18 year old, 2nd year nursing student over a super duper painful shot of 0.9 mm of distilled or saline solution (thanks for that reminder Lad) and a 0.1 mm of ascorbic acid? Tell me please! Tell me. Ah. Ewan. Bahala na. Di naman siguro. Hmmp.. Well anyway, I really don’t care sa sasabihin nila. Eh ang sakit kaya?! Kung sila kaya ang nasa kalagayan ko na matusukan for exactly 5 freakin’ times all in all?? 4 times lang naman sa Skin testing and 1 time sa IM. Sige nga? Sige nga? Please explain that to me? Huhuhu. Nagkamali kasi Son on his 1st shot kaya inulit nia sa other arm ko tapos mali ulit then again nung Tuesday morning on our Health Care Lec tapos mali ulit. Arrraayyy ko po!!! Of course, I was so tensed and everything nung tinusok ko na yung syringe for skin testing, bevel up, 45° and then for IM, bevel down, 90° sa arm ni Son pero tama naman! I got it the both IM and skin testing nang tama on the 1st shot. Oh diba?

I’m not mad at Son or what. He’s a very good friend of mine and it’s never his intention naman to hurt me eh. Obviously, nagkataon lang talaga na nagkamali sya. I love you still Son :) Friends pa rin tayo ha? HIGH FIVE!

Tuesday

I’ve been cursed ata. Friday the 13th kasi ang drama ko this Tuesday. Basta. I feel so unlucky talaga. One big MALAS! Huhu. You have no idea what I’ve been through mga ate and kuya. Grabe talaga. It’s like andun na ako sa point na naiiyak na ako sa sobrang kamalasan ko.

Here’s some of my kamalasan escapade:

Nauntog ako sa jeep for about 2-3 times today. For real! No exaggeration here.
Mali-mali yung pinaprint kong certificates. Letche talaga!!! Sorry about that. Badtrip talaga kasi eh. 15 copies na full page colored certificates ang naprint na walang “E” sa Northwestern. I just came to notice na it spelled NORTHWSTERN nung tapos na. WTH! WTF! What a waste! What-a-big-stupid-me! Whaaaa :(
3 beses kong pinuntahan ang isang taong I really need to talk to about one of our projects. Take note: mahal ang pamasahe ngayon ok? Hindi ko man lang maabu-abutan! Bakit naman ganon? Bullshark naman talaga oh!
Wala si Dean, hindi din mapipirmahan ang mga certificates para sa mga special guests naming for Family Class! Kamusta naman yun??

Basta marami pa… Di ko na matandaan eh.

Wednesday-Fridays

Tinatamad na ako. Basta malas ako this week. I’ll post about these kamalasan next time.

Gusto ko nang palitan ang lay-out ng blog ko!

Please help me! Bakit ba kasi nakakabaliw mag-aral ng Adobe Photoshop? Ayookooo na! Hehe.

Sana kahit yung simple lang. White background. Please, please?

Lad bukas ko na yung tag mo :) Hehe.

Sorry, hindi pala applicable ang 30 minutes para sa post na to :)

To My Ate Kat...

2008-01-30T07:39:00.000-08:00

I'm so honored and proud to have known an extraordinary person like you :)

This was a comment by my dearest ever Ate Kat to my Operation Smile post. She sent it to my friendster account:

ayaw tanggapin ang comment ko sa blog mo, so dito ko na lang
ipopost..hehe..
ok, first of all, i wanna let you know that we shared
the same experience (and sentiments) in commnity duty..hehe..i hated thursdays
because it's time-consuming,hurdled me from my happy experience in school, and
worst of all, it gave me an UNwanted skin color *the heat was
raging..aughh!*sagip paa was fun though :)
2nd, it's okay to share.especially emotions..tell you
what, if you choose to repress, thoughts that are pushed from your
consciousness, and are submerged in your subconscious will remain dormant, but
operant..so it's better to say it, than to burst later on :)
ok, if you feel like you can't stir the wheel, at feeling mo
ay magiging super saian (or is it sayan?..whatever) ka na dahil gusto mo ng
sumabog, here's a good outlet...SCREAM YOUR LUNGS OUT!!!..hehe.."

Thanks for being like a real ate to me :)

Freaky Friday

2008-01-25T20:00:00.000-08:00

Why freaky Friday you may ask. Haha. Well, it's nothing really, as in zero. I just couldn't think of any title at the moment for this post so I'll just have to leave it like that. I know this post is all nonsense so please bear with me okay? :D

How about a "Whatever?!" title?

Okay, so today is Friday (I know you know. sorry about that) and I have no class. Weee. I'm so in loove my schedule ^_^

Wait... Hold it. I think I’m forgetting something again. I do have class tomorrow on Philippine History (and that’s every Saturdays) so my supposed celebration will be useless. Tsk tsk. Stupid me. I shouldn't have mentioned it. I told you, its nonsense.

How about a "Nonsense" title for that?

Speaking of TGIFs, I do believe (and I hope you'll agree too) that Fridays are really meant to be some sort of a "Sabbath" day for everyone especially for nursing students like me. Oh yes, you should agree with me on that! This world nowadays has been intoxicated with so much depression, hate, and everything that goes with it so you can't blame me for loving breaks. Besides, as I've mentioned before in my previous posts, everybody needs a break once in a while. Coffee break (Coffee prince? Haha). Heart break. Outbreak. Whatever kind of break. Give me a break

Oh C’mon. Is it just me or what?? Hahaha.

Oh how I wish I was a person full of humour. Haha. Well at least I tried right? (Taps myself on the back).

Seriously, today is Friday and it’s not as freaky as the title implies—I just really couldn't think of any title. Haha.

I woke up around 4 or 5 am to finish the invitation letters for the VIPs of our Family Class next-next week. We (Adonis, Ginalyn, Justin, John2 and me) went all the way to San Fabian this afternoon at 3pm just to give these letters. My goodness! The 30 minutes trip did drain me. I swear, I really hate traveling especially if it's far and it's freakin' hot (but it's not like when I go home in Anda ok? that's different). And yes, it was freakin' hot this Friday afternoon so as the usual, I had a sleepy head along the trip.

If you only had seen me, my face is so oily, my hair looks terrible and my eyebugs were very obvious plus there were these street children on our way home, begging for money (of course) who have been harassing us while we’re waiting for a bus to pass by. The boy was holding a stone (it was a big one okay?!) threatening us that he'll throw it to our faces if we wouldn't give him money so we all freaked out. Okay, so he didn't actually utter a word or what but that's just how I thought of what he thinks at that moment. Hahaha.Believe me, those kids are psychos. They scared me maaann. Good thing a bus came right in time. What a relief! You should have seen how I ran myself quickly inside the bus. Silly me. Hahaha.

With all of these, what more could I ask for? I looked like a haggard, "toxic" nurse on duty with a 7-7 shift or better yet, a rape victim. Haha. I therefore conclude that I was not in my good condition today and I feel so ugly. At least just for today. Haha. I just had the chance to look at myself in the mirror and comb my hair when we finally arrived in Dagupan at 5 pm. The bus stopped near Jollibee junction so I went there and used the comfort room.

Oppss.. I forgot again. Forgive me. Before all of these, we performed in the gym this morning for the opening of our school's intramurals. Our call time was 6 am but what the heck? The program started 9 am! Nice, very nice. Good thing again, I was late "again". Haha.

These are the pictures taken with my choirmates:
