yey! exams are finally over! thank you, Lord! i love you!
so exams went from a range of moderate to really hard.. here goes..
(summative test)
religion: confusing, but bearable..
1st day
computer: it was ok.. not bad..
biology: HARD! especially the analogy part.. there's sort of a rumor pa nga that the highest in the DD class was 88/100!! if that was the result of the DD bio test, what more with us?!
PE: easy.. 20 points, 'nuff said..
Health: moderate.. twas ok..
2nd day
History: it was ok, but what fraustrates me is i wasnt able to answer two questions!! i know i reviewed those topics, i just didnt remember the answers!
math: HARD.. i dont think i need to elaborate..
filipino: i liked it.. it was ok..
Last day
english: there was this part which was sooooo fraustrating because let's just say, i committed a very stupid mistake! arrrgghh!
journalism: it was haaaaarrrdd!! sir velarde makes great and fun tests (they were in game form), but unfortunately, their really difficult.
statistics: not bad.. just lacked time..
by the way, my studying habits during the exams went to the extremes!! like i studied a little during sunday pa lang for the wednesday exams, studied for 11 hours straight for the second day, and 7 hours for the third day.. twas excruciating! i even woke up at 5 am every exam day to review a little more! but the bad thing is, even though i studied that long, there were a lot of exams i found really difficult!
oh well, im just thankful the exams are over!!

i went to parish a while ago.. as usual, i came at an early time.. 7 am to be exact! i was still sooooo sleepy.. you cant imagine how tough it is to get out of bed! why you ask? well, because this week, ive only gotten a rough 11 hours of sleep! and that's already in a week! to think we have to have an average of 8 hours of sleep in a day.. 11 hours in one week is totally unhealthy.. yup..
anyway, after parish, i went to valle to train.. gosh, i really didnt have energy.. even after just the warm-up felt too much to handle.. i think i lost my touch.. but my mom says i still got it.. oh well.. my arms and legs hurt.. who wouldnt be after all those jabs, punches and kicks.. darn, it's gonna be sooooo hard to wake up tomorrow! body pains all over!! ba-na-na-na!
anyhow, gotta scram! baboosh!

im sure they're cursing me right about now! they really hurt! im serious! we went to the mall a while ago, and we were walking for about 3-4 hours.. there were so many people in the mall also if i might say! hhhmmmpphh!
anyway, i entered the mall all excited, and left ALMOST in tears.. it's coz i've been eyeing this pair of shoes in bayo, for almost 2 weeks now, which looked uber yummy! two weeks for me seems like a lifetime if i really want something.. see, i wanted to purchase a pair after the exams, sort of like a reward.. anyhu, i went to different malls already, and found no pair of the pink ballet shoes i wanted! it's either there's no size, it's out of stock, or they don't order those kinds of shoes anymore! aaarrrggghhh! fraustrating! after all that walking!
good thing were going to shang tomorrow.. i really wanna go shopping!

okay, i try not to conform, but reading a lot of blogs containing the topic death, well, makes me think of mine too..
when i die,
1.) i dont want to be cremated. seems harsh.
2.) eulogies, they're okay. but i dont want people to be saying all my good traits and stuff. exploit me if you want. say what you feel. by doing so, people will remember me as an imperfect person. after all, no one is all good.
3.) no typical wake songs like tanging yaman, or any of that hooplah.. i want the songs being played to be my favorites.. akafellas, maroon 5, theatre songs, even unocho songs if possible.
4.) reserve the tears only when you find out. but when it's all registered in your brain, smile naman dyan. it would be nice if you could also tell jokes during the wake. para astig. mas masaya pa kung corny. the types na bumebenta sakin..
oh well, that's all for now..

wow, i think i lost my voice with all the cheering and stuff.. so here i am typing.. anyway, ateneo won against feu!! hahaha! yup, great news!
during the first quarter, feu was leading.. then ateneo was.. it even went to a lead of 16 points for ateneo! then in the fourth quarter i think, feu took the lead again.. basta it was so exciting! chris looked uber yummy.. i mean cute.. hehe.
i love LA for his unexpected shots! because of LA, ateneo is still unbeaten, even without larry (awwwwww).. when LA got the shot, larry even stood up (which was really hard considering he has an acl injury)! nice.
anyway, gotta scram!

yesterday and today, we didnt have homework! wow, that's a first. considering eversince the school year started, we already had homework! and that was on the first day! and then we never had a day without homework..
anyhow, we've got a new seating arrangement! im seated at the second row, right in the aisle. the seatmate to my right is mandeeü, to my left is jillian, backmate is tin tin.. that's all i can remember..
then i just remembered, the official name of ii-6 is "t'siks".. haha.. it's pronounced as "chicks".. oh well.. ü
that's all for today.. baboosh!

ateneo lost! ateneo friggin lost! against friggin UE!
ok, i know they tried their best, and of course there's always a first time, but it's really heart-breaking!! aaarrggghhh!
i even saw larry in the side lines wearing black. his face had this i-feel-sad-and-angry-and-helpless-because-i-want-to-help-you-guys look.. nakakaawa.
at the end, no one showed a sign of hope or even a simple smile on the ateneo side! everybody was sad. who wouldnt be?! also, at the end, the UE bench came running to the court! ouch. the taste of failure since such a long time..
then right now, im hating bugia! he's been playing really bad!! parang lahat nalang ng attempts niya, either STUPID or just plain careless.. nakakasira ng diskarte ng ateneo! arrrrgggghhh! mas magaling pa nga yata ngayon si kramer sa kanya eh!
oh well, at least i saw chris tiu score 3 points in the final seconds.. it really helped the team. also, at least ateneo only lost by 4 points (59-63) ..

when going to eastwood, make sure you're wearing decent clothes(read: wear something maporma).. otherwise, youre gonna look like a total dork. ive realized that a while ago when everybody, and i mean everybody was wearing stylish clothes. haha.
by the way, i saw jc intal in eastwood too. he was gonna watch a movie with his girlfriend. they were either gonna watch collateral, a cinderella story, the village, or garfield. ü he's soooooo tall. gwapo.
i watched a cinderella story a while ago. typical and so-so. but all i can say is chad michael murray is definitely hot. 'nuff said.

yey! ateneo won against ust! pathetic though, chris had four fouls before half time.. lotsa turnovers. but it's ok i guess. they won anyway. a lot of rookies were also given a chance to play. goodie. especially for johan. and for a change badjjie played well. as in really well. best player. astig.
also, ive totally given up on the hope of getting to watch ateneo-lasalle game live on the 22nd. well, coz it's a sunday which means we have to go to lola's house, and im sure i wont get tickets, so better not waste my energy lining up.
my dad promised me that we could watch the admu vs adamson game on the 29th anyway. so that aint so bad. it's in ultra, so it isnt so far. also, im going to force my dad to allow me to watch the admu-feu game on sept. 11.. it's 2 days after my birthday anyway, so my parents might as well give in. ü
aaaahhhhh! uaap fever. it's crazy.

aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh! we're still soooooo sabog!! *bites nails*
you know what, i really wouldnt care if we lose, but i just want our class to be sort of a competition. gets? i mean, as long as we dont embarass ourselves, im good. plus, i want our batch to have a good representative. i want us to have a chance.
anyway, at computer time a while ago, i thought it was going to be boring, but noooooo! i had fun! well at least class numbers 5-13 did. haha. we did the turbo c thing. haha. we shouted really loud when i finally got it right. and it was just 4 asterisks. it was pathetic, but i was sooooo proud. all that hard work.nice one.
btw, since my birthday is coming up, i've thought of the perfect way to celebrate it.
sept.9, as you know is my birthday (hint! hint!), but unfortunately, it's our class retreat. haay. big whoop.
so retreat's on sept. 9-10. ugh. but luckily, the admu-feu game is on sept.11! so im gonna force my dad to buy about 6 tickets so i could watch the game live with some of my friends! yeah yeah! *crosses fingers* all i need is transportation from a certain place to araneta, and then back. ü oh, i hope this pushes through.

Three Questions
I want everyone who reads this to ask me three questions, no more no less. Ask me anything you want. Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends (including myself) to ask you anything.
Ask me in the comment section. I'll answer your questions there too.

okay, so my saturday started with the usual parish involvement in the morning form seven am 'til ten. haay. it was tiring. then denden, crystal, tippy, jillian and her sister, and i, went to shang. wohoo. bonding. ü
then my mom picked me up. we went to mega. then we got a facial. ouch. 'nuff said.
we went home after, had lunch while watching casper in star movies, then i took a catnap(?) 'til about five pm.
when i woke up, i dressed up coz we were to watch sibol plays, as requested by kuya. fine. we watched two plays, thirty five minutes each, which were not at all bad.
these plays we watched were really deep. astig. i forgot the title of the first one, but this play involves so much thinking. sibolism was greatly used. or should i say idealism. the next one was "ang paglilitis ni mang serapio".. it was good. nakakaawa yung main character. but you learn a lot. to mention a few, i learned:
1. "those who want to see great things must be prepared to travel alone."
2. "you pay for your dreams" or should i say you earn them?
3. if you give up on your dreams, life loses all meaning. you become a paralytic. you don't live anymore. you merely exist.
i really should remember these. ü maybe you should too.

nakakainis:
ATENEO LOST AGAINST LA SALLE!
nakakahiya:
ateneo only had fifteen points at the end of the first half. lasalle even lead by 33 points.
masakit:
ouch. feu's at the top also. after ateneo worked so hard, they share the top seat with another team. truly heart-breaking.
nakakairita:
chris even missed the supposedly "fastbreak point".. fastbreak na nga lang di pa nagawa. grrrr.
nakakatawa:
naka-headband si chris. feeling mac cardona. first the number, now the headband? wahehe. joke lang.

Life's not fair! It's never been fair, but while
adults might just accept that, I know
something's gotta change. And it's gonna
change, just as soon as I become an adult and
get some power of my own.

mm-hmm. no other word to describe it. "it" here refers to well, quite frankly, everything.
"everything" is pathetic because:
1. i rarely get allowed to go to bfu gimiks. yup, im a loser.
2. sophies lost in the songfest. but hey! WE WERE REALLY GOOD. we deserved a place. well, that's my opinion. walang kokontra. baka masapak ko kayo.
3. the philippines doesn't even have one single medal in the olympics. c'mon. give pride to the country!
4. i can't think of anything more to say. yup, NOW THAT'S PATHETIC.

moments. yess.
i wish i lose weight.
i wish i get higher grades.
i wish i would stop being so lazy.
i wish i lose all my procrastinating tactics.

So I spent this Saturday night with some of the BFU members, namely Tala (happy birthday!), Tippy (junior’s how old?!), Aggie (Merry Christmas!), Cheska (love the skirt!), Mars (yes, pinayagan!), Karen (who was oh so hyper), Basilio (na nagkanda-wala-wala pa ü), and Achay (my fellow Loser) at Strumm’s bar (Jupiter). Oh happy day. Yess. I was allowed to go after all.
First, Mars, Cheska, Aggie and I met up at Tippy’s place, so from there, we were fetched by Tala. She was supposed to pick us up at 8:30 pm, but ended up picking us up at about 9:15 or so. I was sooo worried, considering my dad told me they’d fetch me at strumm’s at 11 pm. Yikes!
Anyway, when we got there, there were no tables available on the first floor, so we got kinda bummed and all. We were told to sit at the second floor in the mean time, which wasn’t so bad anyway. So we watched the first set there. While watching, we ordered sisig, nachos, carbonara (for Karen ü), and some drinks. The losers (Karen, mars, achay and I) ordered iced tea. Pathetic, we know. We felt so stupid when we saw aggie, cheska, tippy, and tala order vodka ice. Hehe. Oh well. No biggie.
Then in the middle of the first set, tala, tippy and aggie were called to come up on stage and dance and stuff. Coolie. The guy vocalist named “JC” *ahem* was even waving at us—Sandara style. Weirdo. Patattoo-tattoo pa sha, halata namang fake. Nope, he’s not hardcore.
By the way, Karen is the biggest fan of the samurai bassist. Astig. And also after the set, my mom texted me that they’d be fetching me past 12 already coz they were watching a movie. Yess. Extension. ü
Then bladie, blah, basilio came, etc…..
After the first set, there were finally available tables on the first floor. So we settled there. Then after, ordered “mature” drinks. Haha.
The next performer was ‘Ntwine (spell check?!). They were good. The one guy vocalist, Jason, was über hoooooot. Loved the hair. And the smile. I’m melting. I shook his hand. He sang to me. Got to dance with him. Oh so kilig.
Anyhu, I loved their performances. Get you really pumped up (Merry Christmas!). They got all eight of us to dance on stage, after of course, all the forcing, and pulling and everything. Even mars and basilio danced! Astig talaga.
Haha, unbelievable, considering I’m the reigning “worst-at-dancing” champion. Woah. Great experience. Never to forget. But tala’s experience on stage was even better. Haay. I’m sooooo jealous! Holding hands and all. Haha. Again, merry Christmas! ü
I hear ringing in my ears, I think I’m close to being called deaf. Nevertheless, it’s an experience to remember. I love my friends. Ü thanks, you guys!

Currently feeling: hyper & dizzy. seriously.

Lately, i've been hearing too many stories about people who are less fortunate than we are. I've come upon a number of blogs in which their latest entries tackle the rough world outside our so-called "naive life", and there is of course, the usual stories of sir velarde, which i must admit, really hit me. Like the one about Ishmael(?), the feature he watched in eyewitness, and the most recent, the one about the lady in SM city.
These occurences really got me thinking, "Why aren't people in this world all equal?" "How come I'm too materialistic?" "How come other children find joy in just simple things in life like bottle caps and newspapers, while we get so angry when we don't get what we want?"
All these questions really make me feel guilty.
Think about it.
