WELCOME! Feel free to roam around. :)

5:44 AM Last night I was so depressed I ate three orders of McChicken meal. Genetically modified poultry didn't satiate my hunger for happiness, thus I cleaned and buffed my nails into perfection. It looked bright and shiny so I decided to sleep early and see my shiny nails (still shining) tomorrow morning.

My mom woke me up early in the morning only to know that it was Election Day. I (we) dragged ourselves to the nearest McD's for breakfast and zoomed away to this public high school that served as the voting precincts. So yeah, me and mom treaded the hallways of this national high school. Call me elitist or what but the school was really dirty! And stinky, too. I guess the government should really be alarmed about this. I think around a thousand other high schools are dirty and stinky as well. So please, clean up folks.

Anyways, I didn't know who to vote so I just jotted down names that "sounded" good and Chinese-y. (NATIONALISTA! hahaha) I just hope that I didn't vote for the trashy ones, even if I voted in a trashy way. :) So friends, I am now a rookie in the field of local election. Clap for me!

And that is how I end my 3-day freedom from headfarks.
Adieu

| 3:12 AM Earlier this day, I received a text message from my mom asking where I was and if I was somewhere in the vicinity of Glorietta Makati. I said no, and asked her why she asked where I was. She said that there was a bomb explosion somewhere in Glorietta Makati, and I should go home in case of further explosions. At first I didn't give a damn. I was safe in school, that's what mattered. What got me alarmed was when me and my friend, Lawrence, were walking towards the staircase when we heard two girls talking on their celllies.

Girl 1: Nasa Makati pa ba kayo? Guys, alis na kayo dyan balik na kayo dito. (Are you still in Makati? Get out of there and go back here already.)

Girl 2: May gas leak nga daw kaya sumabog. Alis na kayo please. (There was a gas leak that's why an explosion occurred. Please get out of there.)

I got scared, really. Because earlier today, we were thinking of going to either Mall of Asia or Glorietta due to our 8-hour break. What if we really went to Glorietta? Maybe we could have witnessed the explosions. Or worse, we could have been the ones who got bombed. Lawrence's mom called him up, and said that there was an intelligence report that there might be other explosions that might happen later tonight. Okay, it kinda freaked us.

It's not only Manila who's having a ruckus, but also in Winnipeg. I got to chat with my cousin last night. She told me that she didn't go to school because there was a bomb scare written all over their bathrooms. It might be a joke, but hey it could also be true. Few weeks ago, there was a stabbing incident that happened in their school. The cause? A love triangle. A measly, puppyish, and stupid love triangle. Like YTF would you stab your schoolmate because he's hangin' wit ya girl? Ya know wat? That ain't cool! That's dog poop!

It's really sad and scary to hear and experience all these things. Every single day, someone dies because of terrorist acts (or whatever you call those). Someone's precious life just had to get sucked out of his body all because of ludicrous people with crayzeh minds. A lot of dreams get wasted, and a lot of hopes get trashed. Just think of having to cope up with every single day with great fear dragging you down, just think.

What's happening to the world, y'all?

| 6:45 PM I'm really envious of other "normal" universities. They're feasting on their three-week (as to what I've heard) long semestral break. As if we really had a term break. Hello? Four days? I didn't even feel it! I want a break NOW :(

Anyways.. No, I can't have a term break or whatsoever right now because I won't have ADPRINS (Principles of Advertising) and so that means I won't see... my backmate. Haha! I like seeing him every Tuesday and Thursday because he has this mini version of the Rubik's cube and he's tall (wtf right). Okay, scrap that.

I'm really really really REALLY full of debut planning shiznit right now. Pam's surprise party was just last Saturday, and this coming Saturday is Jen's debut. SOMEONE. PLEASE. HELP. MEEEE! We're so stressed because of all the mishaps and "damages" (according to Lalay). Please next week come come come already!

Sorry for the entry. I'll write a better one, I promise. When I'm stress-free and prim.
:)

| 10:45 AM I don't really know what's up with you, but somehow you always end up crossing my mind. I always think about the "supposed-to-be" months that were in store for us. I usually think of what could have happened if things never changed or things never went amok. Don't get me wrong, I'm over you. It's just that there are times when I just ponder about the unborn adventures that we were bound to take.

I thought of how I first met you. I called you a fatso; only in my mind of course. I never knew that you'd end up as this someone significant. You're significant, not special- there's a difference between those words. We treaded through a long list of events- from the same group projects to parties. In all those times, you were always beside me. You always held my hand. Remember the time when you sat beside me during our trip home? You held my hand, and wrapped your arm around me because you thought I felt uneasy. In fact, I did. I rested my head on your broad shoulder. You thought I was asleep, but I wasn't. You whispered in my ear, and I just had to hear your confession. I pretended to be in deep slumber. I heard every single word you said. Your thought, your feelings, your secret. From then on, I lived every single day as if I never knew anything about it.

Months after, I found us together. Me, sitting on the bench. You, lying your head on my lap. You even teased me for having thin legs, thus, making it uneasy for you to sleep. I leaned my head against the wall and looked upward. You closed your eyes and tried to take a nap. I looked at you. I wanted to smash your face, but of course I couldn't. You held my hand, just like what you always do. The hatred present in my heart instantly flushed itself away. You just had to break me once more.

"For now, this is the last. Maybe we'll start a new one in the future." You said.

And for now, this will be the last time that I will be writing about you. I'm not looking forward to writing about you, or us, in the future. Thank you for breaking me. You gave me a reason to look for bright and shiny things ahead. And as always, I hope you're happy now. :)

| 2:48 AM I'm charging myself with energy because tomorrow is the most important game of this year: THE 70TH UAAP FINALS GAME 2! We're up against the UE Red Warriors with us having 1 win. Oh yeah! We ended the 14-0 scoreboard last Thursday with a final score of 64-63. Talk about defeating the "undefeated"! But I gotta admit, the UE players were damn good. There was a time when they had a 10-point lead (I think it was 2nd or 3rd quarter). See how good they are! However, the Archers gave a better defense during the last quarter, making them win by a point. So tomorrow's gonna be the judgment game. KEEP THE FAITH LASALLIANS! For the win tomorrow! :)



Yay my cousin bought me Vans! :) I love it; it's so cute! She got me Vans because 1.) she's going here in MNL during winter break 2.) I asked her to buy me one (hehe) and 3.) she loves me. :)) I also asked her to buy me string bikinis since it's gonna be summer in no time and winter sale (of summer/spring clothes) is everywhere in CAD. She's gonna arrive here on December 28. I'm not sure yet if she's gonna arrive during the day or night. Oh who cares, SHE'S COMING OVER MNL! The last time I saw her was two years ago when I went to CAD for a vacation/summer study. We're kinda close because she's the only cousin in my paternal side that has the same age as mine. So yeah, we jive. :)

Anyways, I REALLY WANT TO GO TO NY OR LA. As in right now! Ugh. :'( Okay Winnipeg will do. I so want to fly to those places right now.

OH WAIT, before I do that.. I have to stay for a while! :)) I got a call from Rush TV! They want me to audition for a segment in their show! OH-MAY-GED! Wish Trixie a lot of luck.

| 2:22 AM I've been away from blogger for 11 days and my fingers are very excited to type!

First of all, *drum roll please* ... WE WON! The DLSU Green Archers smashed the Ateneo (Arneo - Vanna Lim) Blue Eagles with a score of 65-60 during the last game of the twice-to-beat advantage series. It was really a good game, you know. Having a close score tells it all. Hats off to Cholo who bagged the top scorer in the team :) And to the other team, it was a nice play- fair and square. Sorry guys, it's just that we always win during the important games. Heehee :)

So for the past week that I haven't been updating this blog of mine, I was very very very busy- with school, with my niece's party, with whatnot. I'm really working my ass off on Merchandise Accounting because it's hell. Really! And I really don't quite feel the need of Accounting in my future job. So far I'm enjoying my major subjects in Advertising Management. It's a lot of work, but it's fun. We get to study different commercials aired on TV and categorize it as good or bad publicity. We also get to go to several agencies and experience the works ourselves! How cool is that. Haha! I'm really grateful that I'm part of the half that passed the qualifying exam for Advertising. Tough luck!

This fall season (of course it's fall in the US, not here in MNL) is full of love! Last week, the premier episodes of Grey's Anatomy Season 4 and Private Practice were aired on ABC. Of course, I had to watch it online and steal my auntie's ABC Online password so that I could download the episodes. Oh the joys of medicine! Forgive me, for I'm a frustrated (kinda) neurosurgeon. I wanted to be one; I mean, I was supposed to pursue my studies in medicine but it's freakin' long! And besides, the media dream captured my heart. I could be a pseudo surgeon and do my own medical show! Haha :))

Zooming in to Grey's, the first episode was a bit.. quick. Yeah, running time is still 40+ minutes but the pacing of the story is like there's too much change. DUH, that's why the episode was entitled "A Change Is Gonna Come"! There was a sudden stick shift, more of a quick pivot. The big change donned upon SGH. Callie is the new Chief. The MerDer tandem adopted Lexie Grey thus, creating a love triangle. George confessed his love to Izzie. And Burke is gone. I absolutely love the transition of changes that occurred in Seattle Grace. I mean, third season became a dragfest because of all the ego bubbles coming out of your screen and who won't forget the dreaded broken relationships. Applause, I must say. I love thee Grey's Anatomy! :)

My first impression of Private Practice was bland, very bland. But watching the premier made me taste flavor. I don't have much to say on PP yet. Kate Walsh (Addison Montgomery) was hot, as always. (OMG GIRLCRUSH! haha) The intro part was funny, where Addison was dancing in the shower. I wanna try that too. :)

Okay I over-babbled! :)) Ta-ta for now, I shall shop for string bikinis.
