mabilis lang...

I have to keep this short so i'll just say this much:

-Food Tripping is great if you're hungry. Food trip becomes bad trip if you don't eat anything. ;P

-I really am getting book crazy... I think its the result of marginal utility (i have a simple theory about this...) and of course, coupled by the increasing need to accomplish my beginning-of-the-year goal, whose deadline is getting nearer...

-It's cute how much Bern's friends love her. I answered the phone a while ago and her friends Lara was calling to talk to my mom. 0_0 Bern is on a retreat, and apparently, the deadline of submission of the MC application is tomorrow. Her friend was worried that Bern might not be able to submit, so she called to talk to my mom. It was sweet. ^^

-writing that previous sentence made me realize that I RARELY use the word sweet. For a split second I didn;t recognize the word and wondered if i spelled it right. ^^

-realization: I will never eat in a restaurant who sings for people with birthdays on my birthday. Bianca had to go through that last Sunday, and it was so uncomfortable...

-ST*T 1*1 TFX AY '05-'06 Ist sem, is the world's crappiest subject. I'm literally in the brink of failing... so bad that for the first time in my life, I realized that indeed, "I think that I shall never see, a grade as lovely as a three..."

-This week was a whirlwind with 3 exams (originally 4), 2 papers, an interview (a super verbatim-memorization hard and stressful and pressuring one) and a major report (50% of my entire grade). I lack sleep so much that my eyes stung when I wet them this morning. T_T

-The coming weeks are filled with 2-exam days, etc... I hate ST*T! X(

-I miss a lot of people... I realized just sitting and talking is such a wonderful and relaxing way to spend your time. *u*

-Sitting in the Sunken with friends is wonderful too...

-I spent more money than a sane Genina would in one week. And the week isn't even over yet. That must say a lot about my current mental state. X_x

-I got myself a pretty henna tatoo... but apparently, I AM allergic to it. -_- I guess it shouldn't be a surprise. I apparently inherited it from my mother's side of the family, cause a number of them have this allergy to ink.

-I'm having lunch with the kada tomorrow, for the last time this sem! It's sad to realize that maybe next sem we won't be as lucky with our scheds.

-And for any guy who dares make my friends' life miserable: I may not be able to kill you, or even physically hurt you, but rest assured that I WILL be cursing whoever you are and damning you in my mind if you hurt any of them. But only if they approve. And no, I'm not planning to curse anyone just yet. But that's just in reference to an obscure future event involving anyone of my friends or cousins or anyone I see suffering such a case. ^^

-Hehehe...

-I have a lot to say, but the entry is long enough already as it it...

-Oh yeah, bwisit ka *tooot*! A person actually gave me a grade of 90 for some certain subject. And everyone else recieved 100! Imagine: 100-100-100-90-100-100...-100. I got the lowest in the group, which wasn't fair cause I did my part! Grr... Just because some people didn't take the initiative to do their part doesn't mean that the blame should fall on someone who did her part. Whatever... at least my other groupmates were fair enough. >:(

-sorry for typos... as usual...

-growl...

-bangag?

-need sleep... Z_z

-good night!

*sigh* Hectic Lifestyle of what Stacy calls a 'Postmodern Working Robot'

Even though I told Vigile that the previous entry would be my last till the end of the sem, i now find myself making a little time to blog...

Updates on my life:
Our CE president actually texted me that "stressed is just desserts spelled backwards, therefore, its just a piece of cake. :D" How I wish. Recently, my grades have been falling (seriously, my geog teacher said so himself) and I'm getting more and more tired each day. I can almost fell the word fatigue moving through my now limp muscles. u_u Wah! And I have so much to do! This saturday I have FOUR BIG activities lined up, plus I have 4 exams AND a final interview next week. And this final interview is no joke. I have to memorize everything about this certain org, including everyone's full names (note the formidable size of this org~ around 150?) and their positions, plus the preamble backwards, etc and their past history since 1959 (or was that 1955). 0_0 Wah!

And I super tired myself out for the JPIA challenge night. I tell you, never have i seen props as nice and give-all EVER! Our group had a humongous (sp?) painted background, umbrealla sized crepe flowers big enough for people to hide in, a car, a camel, a gasoline pump, a huge Darna rock, a gazillion signs and banners, a big portable sun, a guitar... and we created it within 2 afternoons. A group of around 13 mind you! Plus several dance numbers, etc. The event was really fun, plus we won second place too. ^^; That's a first. But it ended at around 10:30? And I had some deadlines to meet... It was pretty tiring...

And my grades aren't something I'm really proud of. X_x Never have I gotten grades this low! T_T

Plus I miss my friends... T_T

I think I'm getting too stressed out lately. X_x So stressed that I'm thinking about almost everything in terms of marginal utility of everything vs. studying and org work. X_x

I probably really will take a break from application next sem. And i'll probably only make an exception for Sig. (or Stacy and Selda) :)

And I won a raffle! Finally! Bong won a php450 CD earlier, and i was starting to think that after all the money I've poured into raffles over the years, I'd probably never win. But I finally did. I'm still not sure about my prize though... What the hell is an ice cream stub anyway? A stub to get a cup of ice cream? 0_0 (In that case, it still wouldn't be worth all the money, but its better than nothing. ^^)

And i don't have geog class anymore! Less to worry about! Yey! Unfortunately, it WAS my favorite subject this sem, perhaps if another subject went out instead, say STAT? or even BA? or even Econ? Or even Nat Sci? or Kas? --> Hmmm... parang lahat nalang kaya sana? XD

It's also BIanca's birthday on Sunday, and sadly, I have nothing as a gift. Greet ko nalang sya. ;D

I miss my cousins... I've been thinking about sending them something via snail mail. Cause Janna's right, it's a lot more personal, plus it reminds me of our younger days, writing letters to imaginary penpals and what not. ^^

And I also miss the KAda... T_T Paradise tayo sa Sembreak! Hehehe...

Part I: Application Ecklavoo~

Strike 3! Ouch! This is getting serious. I'm starting to worry. T_T Will not dwell on it further, to avaoid further embarassment, but you can ask me personally if you want. u_u But just so I'll remember, it's related to some sig sheet description of me from Bong's buddy+a CE mem's comment+an RPT mem's comment.... Hey! All orgs covered! @_@

Anyway, I survived my JPIA hellweek. A particular highlight was when one of the members ordered us to make another JPIA member cry. Now, this member was an incredibly cheerful GUY, so making him flow tears was a pretty intimidating task. So out of sheer desperation (and lost-ness) the small grp of apps succumed to my futile suggestion of simply just asking him to cry for us. I mean, making hiom cry with laughter is harder than one thinks. And, much to our delight, he actually did cry! Yeah! Galing non grabe! We kept on thanking him, and the girl who ordered us was SO surprised too. :D

And I've actually deferred an Org Application! Imagine. What would my teammates say? XD But I have to much in mind already, so I was forced to drop RVC. Shame, It's the last and only opportunity I have to join this group. And it could have helped me get good grades (cause they get inside info on the skeds of good profs), plus I wouldn't have had to suffer enrollment hell. Oh well... Sayang!

And I was recently sooo pissed of with a certain org's requirement of joining a certain photocontest. Aside from having to waste so many good film shoots, I had to spend a LOT of money for it, plus even miss my econ make-up class. So much for that...

And the RPT has new mems. It's so fulfilling. :D I'm beginning to understand the feeling of old mems. :D Plus, I got a moment of fulfillment a while ago when Levs, a BA friend, mentioned that perhaps the hardest application in the entire college was for "rifles" -->*cough* RPT? Imagine! She didn't know I was a mem. *proud* But then again, poor freshie old me who didn't know a thing and just so happened to land the hardest application in UP. What luck is that? But it's pretty worth it. :D Plus maraming nanglilibre! XD

I've been really worried lately about my upsoming JPIA interview. Just thinking about it gives me a pit in my stomach. I'm kind of worried that after everything I went through, I may not be able to get in. T_T I was computing my score based on the percentages written in my Sig Sheet, and I'm also kind of worried that I may not reacj 60%. *sigh* The obstacles I must get through...

And I like my Optics buddy. She's the only freshie applicant, and she likes moons and stars. ^^ *bangag* And some applicant described me as MakaDiyos, Vigile=Makakalikasan and Bong=makatarungan for no reason at all (for lack of better descriptions). Does it ring any bells? Elementary school bells at that? XD

And I had to attend an Org/BA activity called Org press. Withinn the few hours that it came and went, I actually lost my voice. When Vigile and I were heading home, I was rasping terribly. Imagine... I was cheering (laughing) that much I guess. But it was great fun, and I intend to attend next year again. XD

Part II: College Life nga naman!

I met with Sig one day, and she said I was a manhater?!? I'm not... really! I have guy friends. *shrug*

And my acads are slowly dying... I had a stinking Nat Sci exam (for which vigile needs to treat me out cause of some bet we had about getting lower) and my econ exam took place during the RPT FR. How am I supposed to enjoy the entire app process as a mem? And why does my econ always fall on eventful days??? Plus I got not so good grade in Econ... pretty low actually. When I computed it, it pulled my average so low, it hurt. T_T

And have you guys ever tried the Mongolian in C.A.S.A.A.? For some weird reason, neither Bong, viligle or I can get it right. And considering we should have learned from each other's mistakes. Mine had too much garlic (so much so that 1 spoonful will cause the garlicy aroma to rise up in your nose and get your breath all stinky~note just 1 spoonful). Vigile's was literally swimming with sauce, if you set aside some rice, halk the bowl will actually be filled with sauce, and that's no joke, and Bong's was TOO spicy. One spoonful will already burn your tongue, and take it from me, cause I've already eaten several whole pieces of sili at one time in my life. Funny how we could never get that right, ne?

Part III: The Lighter Things in Life

We watched more episodes of Honey and Clovers yesterday! Yosh! I really like Takemoto, Mayama and Shuu. Morita is okay, but I prefer the three. <3 That anime is really nice...

And there's gonna be a new anime channel on Sky. Too bad france can't see it. But for my part, I'm really interested to see the channel's line-up. :D

And Sig has the FF VII movie!!!!!! *gasp struggle to breathe* FF VII!!! Cloud and Aeris!!! \(^_^)/

And I've come to the realization that (despite how much Vigile teases me about it) I seriously dislike guy to guy issues. They're just plain WRONG! When I was watching the nime film showing in UP, I was a tiny bit appaled at their apparent fondness for the TouyaxYukito pairing. Eww! Soo wrong! Touya isn't gay! At least I don't think so... Yukito (technically) doesn't have a real gender considering he's actually a 'creature', but it's icky! X_x

However, if the world should endeavor to get an answer from me about this, I had a recent realization. There IS one guy pair that I actually wouldn't mind getting together. In fact, I *sort of* prefer that they do... take a guess. Clues are that the gang knows them, and their names both start with the same letter, and they're both good looking, and cool (in their way)... those who know them *kind of* love them, in a way. :D (vigile isn't allowed to make a guess though... ^^)

And I finished Coraline without much incident. Although it's probably not that I'm made of stronger stuff than Sig, more like maybe I'm just creeped out by different things. =)

And one day, Dwelly and I succeeded in actually creeping Sig out. It got me a little scared of Sig, and I didn't find it particularly fulfilling. I think it would have freaked Stacy out too... The others... er... maybe not. ^^

And I think, I may have destroyed our car. Actually, my dad said I really did. I've been practicing driving on our humble Corolla you see, and the clutch seems to have broke down because of my inexperience. T_T It was enough to encourage my dad to re-enroll me in driving school.

I visited Sig one day, and as I was walking home, it started to rain. I had no umbrella, so I had to trek under the rain. It was surprisingly pleasant. :D I actually found myself wishing it would rain just a bit harder, cause I was already wet anyway. I was drenched when I came home, but that may have been the most fun walk I've had from Sig's house. Afterall, all the rest are ordinary and similar. ^^

And I finished the Da Vinci code. It was unbelievably predictable, in fact, I think I liked it more than Angels because I was eager to get to the end to find if my guess was right. Wrong way to apprecaite a book, but in it's own way, I enjoyed it at least. I definitely liked it more than Angels, it ended better for one thing. Plus, on the more narcisstically selfish side of things, I enjoyed the fact that I was able to guess the second password as soon as they read the clue, while it took them the rest of the book to figure it out. It gave me a little measure of satisfaction (although I pressume a million other people were able to guess it early as well anyway) that at least little ole me, who is currently experiencing a little school trouble, actually outguessed fictional experts. It temporarily boosted my wounded and crippled ego. ^^

Please forgive any typos... this was an especially long entry. ^^

Weird...

I've realized that I tend to get cranky a lot lately... Maybe its the stress. 0_0 Anyhow, on the lighter side of academics, I realized that I'm not a geek afterall (although there's still a slight chance that I am) but am actually a NERD! Based on definition anyway. Hmm... I wonder what the GC will do...?

And the weirdest thing of all, last Tuesday, I went to school wearing a pair of khaki capri pants and a green shirt. I rarely wear capri, and much to my UTTER SHOCK (!!!) both Bong and Vigile were wearing GREEN shirts and KHAKI CAPRIs! 0_0 Even worse, BOng and I were wearing black slippers, and all three of us were sporting green knapsacks! 0_0 Talk about coincidence. IT was utterly funny, too bad we weren't able to get pictures. Just like the trio's debate get-up. No pictures too. u_u Oh well... such things are at least incredibly memorable as to stay in one's mind without much reminders. ^^

And its fun seeing the *toot*s applicants in costume. ^^

And reading is such a fun fun pasttime! Stress relief grabe!

grrr... nawala entry ko!!! X(

It started with my ranting about how pissed off i originally was that my Nat Sci exam was cancelled, until I realized that I didn't have my calculator. So in a way, I'm still pretty lucky. :D

Also, I've had 4 encounters with caterpillars lately. One actually crawled on my left hand while another fell on the book on my lap. gawd! Luckily, I didn't itch one bit... even I was amazed. 0_0

Basta... the entry ended with: Yay! Sig has so many new books! I have a few too, and so does Bianca and Bong! And it seems all bookstores are on sale these days!!! ^___^ So Happy! So many books to read!!! XD XD XD XD
