miss blogging!

Have a few minutes left with me before we head to mass. My stay here at home has been great so far, although I miss Manila already. I miss my friends!!!

==
I'm currently hooked on Bookends by Jane Green, the main character is so much like me! Well except for the fact that she's clad in black all the time. But the bookshop dream, how she handles her relationships with her friends, it's so me! Creepy and funny at the same time. :)

==
I haven't seen my friends here yet, Yet will be home after holy week pa, and Tin's in Cebu coz her Mom just had an operation. I just found out last night that her Mom has cervical (?) cancer. Please pray for her and her family.

==
Maxi, my all time favorite fastfood place here, is now replaced by Sugba King. Haha. Damn i love it there! Grilled tuna! Yuuuuummmmmmyy!! :)

==
Nothing from B yet. Will I get to see him? Oh, and Ara, if you're reading this, I just broke my promise - the monthly resolution. I replied. Dang.

==
This will be my last summer EVER. This should be F-U-N!!! I was thinking of all the things I wanted to do, but here's the thing, I am BROKE. There's this pink Chucks I want so badly, plus I need money for Moro, and the beach getaway with Santayo if ever tuloy. Where will I get all that? And to think I maxed out my account already. Hay.

==
Been thinking about lots of different things over the past few days, wasn't able to put them all down in paper though. Hopefully I will be able to during holy week. We've just been so busy the past few days. Paolo's grad, early Sundays (I am so not used to this!), and Sam's recognition. She got in the honor's list too! :) Yay! Congrats nay! :)
I will post a more decent entry soon. Ciao!

S-U-M-M-E-R ! ! !

aaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D it's summer na!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D that means three STRESS-FREE weeks of being at HOME!!!!!!!!! :) i'm so excited! i'm going home tomorrow! :)

==
My Philo orals went okay today, surprisingly. I wasn't as nervous as I was in all the previous oral exams and I actually got my point across. Thank you Jess. :)

==
Went shopping with Trisha earlier today. (Kakaiba talaga. We were wearing the same outfit today. Freaky!) I promised her we wouldn't do the 7-hours-straight thing again, but we were quite close to it. After our yummy lunch at Dannylicious, we headed to Rockwell at around 2, and finally used our Fully Booked GCs! Yay! :) After that and a few errands for Mom, we headed to Mega na. Oh no. I ended up maxing out my account, saying bye-bye to my savings. (To think I was even lecturing Ciara about it! ;p) On the brighter side, it was my birthday money anyway, and at least I used the money for stuff I could actually use and not just on food. Yeah yeah, I'm convincing myself.
There were lots of cute bikinis at Surplus, but obviously, I didn't have the figure yet. Yes, in a year, I will. Resolutions...I wanted to get a blue and yellow tankini but I was having second thoughts so I trusted my instinct and stuck to my "When in doubt, don't." principle. Got this really cute top and board shorts though for a cheap price. I still can't believe it only cost that much! Got flip flops for Geli and Sam too, now the three of us have sets in pink! :) Chose to buy Paolo a classic Vans cap, the shirts he wanted were all too big for him pa. Hope he likes it.
Trisha and I were good girls since we stopped ourselves from going to Bayo, knowing we'd end up buying something we really didn't need YET. Haha ;p we just compromised by going to Bread Talk instead, take a break for a while before walking again and pushing ourselves in the super cramped MRT. Got home at around 8, so that was about 6 hours all in all. An hour away from the 7 hour record. Now my feet are killing me! But thanks talaga Twin! :)

==
Now that I'm done with junior year, what's next? Duh. I am officially a senior. Wow. Time flies so fast. It's exciting and scary at the same time. But the anxieties let's save for later. This is a well-deserved break. I shall enjoy it to the fullest. :) Ciao!!!

ONE MORE TO GO!!! :D

aaaahhhhh!!!!!! i can do this!!!!! philo orals nalang and i'm D-O-N-E!!! i can hear summer calling me...hold on for one more day. :)

who is it?

all i want is what i'm missing...are you listening?
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be (possibly your roommate, neighbor, coworker, long lost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger), but when you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment they will affect your life in some profound way.

And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart.

Everything happens for a reason.

Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck.

Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.

The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, help to create who you are and who you become.

Even the bad experiences can be learned from.
In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones. If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious when you open your heart.

If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.

Make every day count.

Appreciate every moment and take from those moments everything that you possibly can for you may never be able to experience it again.

Talk to people that you have never talked to before, and actually listen.

Let yourself fall in love, break free, and set your sights high.

Hold your head up because you have every right to.

Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, it will be hard for others to believe in you.

You can make of your life anything you wish.

Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets.

And learn a lesson in life each day that you live.

HITCH! :)

Finally got my wish of being able to watch a movie earlier today. I've been yearning to watch one for weeks! The stress is just killing me. After two defenses today, I just couldn't say no to a movie despite my almost empty wallet. So Ciara, Kynan, Yda and I decided to watch HITCH, and it was hilarious! I loved it! :D Kudos to the scriptwriter! And Will Smith rocked!
If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend this movie for a perfect de-stresser. Comedy with a whole lotta sense. ;p I already wanna watch it again! :)

==
Flash project, Marketing final presentation, POM final paper and defense = DONE.
Three more to go and I am on VACATION baby! Finance finals, Philo orals, Walmart case.
Let's do this!

==
Geli made it to the honor's list this year! :) Congrats Pinnnzzz! I'm real proud of you! I'll see you soon :)

==
Side note: We were in uniform today while at the mall. Why, you ask? Because we wouldn't fit in the employee's room if we stayed, and there was really no point in staying since we didn't have a client to cater to today anyway. Hahaha. ;p
If I could have the chance to be one of them, I would point out the mistakes in a more polite way - not only because I've been there, but more because I know that despite those mistakes, somehow, they worked hard for that project. (unless of course, they let someone else do it for them) Hay, issues.
What goes around comes around.

:D

Enough of the drama. I think I found my drive to actually do good in the remaining reqs.
I can do this!

11 days to go. :)

mixed up me

Lilo's clock says it's 2:46 am. I'm not sleepy nor am I productive. I can't concentrate on the ALTP paper. I will never ever buy a grande at 10 pm if I don't intend to pull off an all-nighter.

I'm chatting with Trisha right now, both of us filled with unhealthy nostalgia. Men really are from Mars. I hate this lingering feeling.

"Is there anyone out there coz it's getting harder and harder to breathe." - Maroon 5

"The space between the tears we cry is the laughter that keeps us coming back for more.
The space between the wicked lies we tell and hope to keep safe from the pain.
The space between in your heart and mine is the space we'll fill with time." - DMB

In life I know there is lots of grief, but your love is my relief." - Annie Lennox

t****na.

naiiyak na ako sa

S T R E S S ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

utang na loob sir, ilang papel pa ba?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

My YB entry got published! :D

Thank you JESS! :)

My Youngblood entry got published in the Inquirer two days ago, March 1 to be exact :) :) :)
I practically blew off the eardrums of my dad when he told me he saw my article on the daily paper. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D
Hehe, i'm just so happy about it (isn't it obvious?!), ironic as it may seem. I mean the topic may be sad and all, but still I'm happy that it actually got into print.

Thanks to all those who read it, hehe :) (it's not as bad as it was back in first year, believe me.)

Thanks to Sir Randy for the dream project requirement. It would take me another five years or so if it weren't for the 20%. Haha.

Thanks to my friends, especially to Santayo - Ciara, Kynan, Queena, Shiela and Yda - who have always been there to alleviate that sad feeling, and who are genuinely happy for me. Love ya guys :)

Thanks to Mom for her endless (nagging ;p) encouragement. Love you Mom. :)

Syempre thank you God for making all this possible. :)
