And of course avatars from long ago times. ^__________^;
Which reminds me, I recently came across a Johnny's Junior group, Kanjani 8(?), on TV. They were singing a song I remember listening to in my first year, Eden. T_T Amagad! The song itself has a nostalgic quality about it, so I suddenly found myself digging up my old jpop files and loading them into my cellphone to listen to. Shocking to believe that it's been around 5-6 years since vigile first stumbled on nhk and introduced Kat-tun to the trio. ^_^ When I listen to those songs, for some bizarre reason, I remember studying in the math building before an exam. I'm not sure if it was for Math17 or Math100, but for sure I was in first year, in the math bldg. I still used to use my Sony discman then, too. ^^;
I told Tracy about it, and she was weirded out by the fact that I actually remembered studying. Not that I remembered what I studied though, just the general feeling of being in the empty 3rd floor of the math building some morning long ago, cramming. ^^; I guess for some bizarre reason, I have "song memories". What that is, I'll explore sometime in the future, but I'm feeling a bit lazy today. :p
And I remembered my 6 favorite jpop songs of long long ago... (in no particular order, save the first probably. ^^)
1) LIONHEART!
2) Hakka Candy
3) Eden
4) Tremolo
5) Bonnie Butterfly
6) Fly
Had enough of this memory lane? Well I'm not done yet! XD I also stumbled across some Phoenix Pendant chapters and thought to myself that I'd like to write a new chapter or something, even just a parody. (Maybe even featuring my favorite couple.. XD)
~~~
And then I also happened to listen to a song sung by the younger juniors, and I remember that I particularly disliked one of those kids. And one day, while I was once again airing my dislike, vigile (she was probably irritated with the idea by then) commented that I have a tendency to dislike things quite intensely. Or something like that. ^^; And I realized in retrospect that just as that is likely, I also have the equal tendency to like things intensely. Like in Kat-tun, I get overly defensive for my favorite member at times, and a bit mean to members i don't really like, like Kame. XD Though I don't think I dislike him so much now. But of course, I also have a very very wide margin of neutrality...
See the image? The whole light gray is my neutral part, i think. The red and white are the like/dislike parts, the dark gray parts are the slightly like/dislike parts, but still neutral. Its hard to explain though, so I'll stop now and leave anyone reading this to wonder why I brought it up anyway. ^^; But as a disclaimer, that's just what I think. ^^;

Even further down memory lane (yes, as cheesy as it sounds, i'm sticking to it for this entry) I also got to think about the cousins. Just why and how did we (Ejers) end up fighting with Katrina anyway? If I remember correctly, she used to be my closest Certeza cousin till something happened. ~_- Weird that I totally forgot though. I remember that we used to sort ourselves into the "Firsters", "Seconders" and the "Lasters". XD Silly, but the firsters were the first born cousins, i.e. me, Cara and Rob. The Seconders were the second ones, Bianca, France and Katrina, and the Lasters (sometimes referred to as Thirders, which is the incorrect term for them since there is a fourth-born child in the group) were Bernice, Renzo, Angel and Justinne. Of course, the Firsters were the elite group. XD But then again, we were always the unofficial leaders of the cousins. ^^; And supposedly, we liked each other best. ^^ Which was also true for most seconders. Hehe.. France admitted that her favorite cousin used to be Katrina, then afterwards, it became Bianca. Cute, ne? But its so weird that I forgot why we fought with Katrina.. KATRINA!! Do you remember????
~~~
Anyway, I really should get on with my homework. I dunno why, but for some weird reason this semester feels really different from before. Other than the fact that Gremio and I have been going out the past few weekends, and that I'm a mere member in all my orgs, at times even an inactive member, and that a lot of my friends have graduated or have no time for me anymore, it just feels different. My schedule for one thing. During 3/4ths of the week, it feels so crazily busy that I barely sleep, and yet when that's over, suddenly there's a vacuum of nothing to do (usually friday and tuesday nights), hence the long sleep and gimmick times. Weird weird.. To put in simply, this sem is more like a roller coaster than all my previous sems. Or at least it is right now. The busy times are really really busy times and the free times are really really free. I suppose it has a lot to do with the absence of extracurricular activity. -_-
~~~
Anyway, before I end, I watched a movie on HBO quite recently. About a gang of friends who grew up to be really different women. One's a divorcee, another is was a disillusioned but successful entrepreneur, another is unemployed, another is a happy and rich housewife (i think). Basta! Don't expect me to get the synopsis right cause I wasn't watching it closely till the end, but the bottom line is they're very very different women. ^^; And then sometime during the end, one of them commented on how different they were, and that she frequently wondered that if they didn't use to be friends and had just met at that point in life, would they have become friends at all? To which her husband said he didn't think it likely. (sorry I'm a bad storyteller.)
But anyway, I had that exact same thought more than once in my life. But the story was cute in that they still stayed close friends although their lives were so far apart and different.
Well, I think I'll end with that. There's only so much I can type before even I lose interest in the entry. ^^ I don't know if I'm making sense, but anyway, that's it. ^^;
Last sem's trio sched! Hehe...
