ang pasko'y sumapit :)

the past christmas was my happiest to date. mejo matagal ko ng pinagninilaynilayan kung bakit... the answer: you're not gonna believe this (coming from me)! si jesus. :D

pano ba naman kasi, ako eh yung type na, yep i'm catholic, period. ganon lang. going to mass was just some kind of obligation, a family affair during saturdays or sundays.

but attending misa de gallo changed all that. yung pagsisimba every night made me feel light hearted afterwards. happy. ang galing, yung essence ng simbang gabi, which is actually a preparation for the self to accept christ's coming and love on christmas day, was not lost in me. hindi yung sisimba ka dahil masarap ang simoy ng hangin or masarap yung puto bumbong afterwards. :D

sabi pa nung pari nung christmas homily... love is the reason for this season. tama! kaya masaya ang pasko ko ay dahil christ gave me so much love the past months... buo ang pamilya ko ngayon, there's gerald, my imed friends who i never get tired of seeing everyday.. ganon. naintindihan ko na rin sa wakas. let me change that. i'm just STARTING to understand it.

i don't think i made any sense. hahaha!! i've barely scratched the surface of what i've wanted to say, of what i'm feeling. :)

eto o, picture!!! our church, on christmas eve:

kinda malabo, just from my trusty 6230. yung guy na andon, di ko kakilala, paharang harang sa camera! hehehe. kahiya naman patabihin di ba. :D

stuck in a rut

enter quasi-depression mode. i've been going nowhere in the past few days. not literally though. every other day, my family and i go out. i'm just feeling unaccomplished lately. i haven't done anything for my personal growth. reel from the shock and actually believe that maan de castro starts talking about personal growth. hahaha.

i've been wanting to change THIS layout for one. i have a concept already but it just wouldn't fully materialize. hay nako.

i said that i'd get to watch all the film festival entries. but i haven't even seen one movie. my family's too tamad to go watch movies.

ever since the vacation started, i've planned to study our lessons in preparation for toxicity galore. i've done nothing but schedule and line up all those that i have to study. i've only read like 5 pages of developmental biology and never even bothered with the other subjects. lagot ka maan!

i've accomplished two things though: baking a LOT of cookies (choco chip, white choco chip, macaroons--the best!, snickerdoodles and crinkles) and finishing she's come undone (whatta nice book!). there. seeing that in writing (typing) made me smile. :)

i can't wait for classes to start. some kind of loser i am. nyahahaha. :p

what's new?

new lay out!! merry christmas!!! i did it by myself this time. well, most of it. si ge yung naglagay ng snow flakes. :)

new laptop!! not technically new though, it's my dad's and he bought it some 4 months ago. i exchanged ziggy for "bob" (my new laptop's name, hehehe. para bagay pa rin sila ni marley, BOB MARLEY!). bob's an acer aspire 2010. the bestest laptop in the whole wide world! exaj naman. but even ge would agree. :D di ba ge? it's centrino, has bluetooth and infrared, dvd-rom, can burn (see i dunno the right terms hwehehehe), has wi-fi, 4-in-1 card reader, has a whopping 15.4 inch display and some other specs that are really jargon to me. click nyo na lang ito: CLICK CLICK CLICK for the full specs. ang yabang ko. :p

my new baby :)

new books!!! i went book shopping yesterday at powerbooks in alabang town center. with only a thousand pesos at hand, i was able to buy 3 good reads:

Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

this is what i am currently reading. i like latin american literature pala, i just realized.. because most of them dwell on mythical/magical themes interspersed with a little bit of romance. i love those kinds of books! laura esquivel (author of like water for chocolate) is another latin american writer that i admire. i love her book!

Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho
di ko pa ito nababasa... yung first paragraph lang and it really struck me:

"Once upon a time there was a prostitute called Maria. Wait a minute. "Once upon a time" is how all the best children's stories begin and "prostitute" is a word for adults. How can I start a book with this apparent contradiction? But since, at every moment of our lives, we all have one foot in a fairy tale and the other in the abyss, let's keep that beginning."
ganda talaga ng opening paragraphs ni paulo coelho ano? my favorite opening paragraph though, is from by the river piedra i sat down and wept.

She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb

a coming of age novel about an obese adolescent. i like coming of age novels din pala hehehehe, like white oleander by janet fitch. i've read somewhere na maganda daw ang she's come undone, in fact it has won several awards including the new york times notable book of the year.

ayan! may magagawa na ako ngayong bakasyon!

last na lang na new..

new flats!!black sequined ones na mejo indian inspired. bought it for only P550 at Shang.

hihihi. harumph. la na akong masabi. :)

back from the dead

whew. after how many days of not blogging, eto na naman akoooo!! weeee!! yayness!!! i'm finally at the place where i can choose 'never dial a connection' in my internet connection settings. yep, i am so at HOME already!! just got back from manila yesterday afternoon. ;)

so much have happened the past 2 weeks.. ittry ko silang irecall lahat!!

ACADS:
believe it or not ZERO ang acads meter ko for the first part of the 2nd sem. we didn't do anything!! unbelievable! dahil nga siguro maraming days na walang pasok dahil sa bagyo, holidays, at kung anu-ano pang activities ng college ay na postpone ang mga departmental exams, etc namin. nakadalawang quiz lang yata kami samantalang sandamukal ang exams ng ibang courses. i'm going to hoard all the sleep i could get! i bet hapitan na yan next year.

iMED SHIRT:
astig. ang yabang!! hehehe. sayang, di ako nakakuha ng pics galing kay sheng. tingnan nyo na lang kay GERALD yung pics namin. buti na lang black ang napili naming kulay. nakakapayat!! hihihi.

NMAT:
ano nga ba ang NMAT? it stands for national medical admission test. all those wannabe doctors have to take the NMAT so that they could enter the medical school of their choice. for intarmed's case, formality na lang yung NMAT. di namin kailangang umabot sa kung anumang percentile para makatuloy kami ng med proper. kung mataas ka, well and good, may natutunan ka din pala sa lahat ng ka-toxican na ipinasok mo sa utak mo. hehe. kung mababa ka, ouch, masakit lang sa pride. so how was the test? ummm, i'm glad intarmed ako. :) pag nakuha ko na ang aking test result sa february, wala akong pagsasabihan ng score ko! sa physics and bio and some subtests lang ng abstract part lang ako mejo nadalian. MEDYO lang. bwehehe. i dunno din, baka naman dahil hindi ako nagreview whatsoever! nagsimula lang akong magsagot ng NMAT stuff 3 days before the examination date. talk about cramming huh? anyway, i'm just glad it's over! good luck to those who are going to take it on april!

BAKING SESSION w/ GERALD:
ge and i planned to give cookies to the whole class for christmas. wala ng ibang time so after ng NMAT umuwi kami sa bahay nila sa Q.C para magbake. pero bago magbake ay namili muna kami ng ingredients sa cherry. then heard mass at the church behind cherry. then ate at jollibee for the third and thankfully final time that day! pinoy version of supersize me huh? anyway, we started mixing all those ingredients at around 8:30 pm already. initially, we planned to give 10 cookies per person (so 10x40 is 400 rayt?) kaya lang, by around 10 pm we realized na di namin kakayanin yata, we still have to go back to manila. so ayun, mix mix and bake. hehe. ang filipino pala sa baking ay paghuhurno. non ko lang nalaman. ;) tapos we placed the cookies in small plastic containers, added red and green ribbons. to follow na lang the next day yung gift cards kasi we were so wasted by the time we got back in manila. 2 am na yun. haaaaay. kapagod. labor of love. ;)

looking harassed after baking. haha!
and the packaging
SALUBUNGAN NG MGA TALA, ADOPT A WARD AND CAMPUS IDOL:
syempre, kinarir na naman namin ang simpleng pagkakaroling. hehe. nagcompose pa sina gid and master julian ng christmas song entitled Araw ng Pasko. but the salubungan didn't proceed as what we've expected. pagdating sa PH, parang 1 song lang dapat ang kakantahin namin! but di kami pumayag! sayang naman ang pinaghandaan namin. and besides, sinabi naman yata na it's a 30-minute program. kaya ayun, napasama tuloy kami sa pag-ikot sa campus. haaaay.. ang kinalabasan pa eh parang kami lang pati ang mga students sa carolers. most of the people that were with were like staff or faculty of the department. i dunno. basta they were old na. pagdating sa NIH (national institute of health) tumakas na kami to go to the Cancer Institute (CI) at PGH para naman sa adopt a ward.

magkasama kami ni ge sa room na pinuntahan namin sa CI. both of the patients are suffering from breast cancer. yung nakausap ko has already undergone chemo. ayun, kwento kwento lang... ako, yung patient mismo ang nakausap ko. si ge naman, yung bantay nung patient. here's the twist: yung nakausap ni ge ay may pagka psychic. i'm not going to delve into details but what he told ge is not exactly amusing.

after ng adopt a ward, we went to campus idol to watch the two imed 2011 contestants. sayang, di namin naabutan ni ge yung dalawa.. di ko rin naman na masyadong napanood yung iba dahil kachikahan ko si louie. ang corny ni wency corneho yun lang.

UPIS FAIR:
pagkatapos naming mag FCH at sumaglit sa christmas party ng med (i swear, matutunaw na yung crush namin ni kathy sa katititig namin!!!), pumunta kami ni ge sa UPIS para manood ng concert ng cambio, sugarfree, imago and other underground bands. dumaan muna kami sa bahay nila para kunin yung starex tapos we had dinner din don.

pagdating sa IS, may naalala akong nangyari sa akin dati doon noong 3rd year HS pa lang ako. i was there before kasi dual meet ng UPIS at UPRHS. syempre, i was ever supportive of ex no. 2 kaya i went to watch him play volleyball. after a disapponting loss against UPIS volleyball team (kung saan kasali si gerald, hahaha!) super bad trip si ex no. 2. i asked him if he wanted to eat but he was really so bad trip that when he answered "ayoko" parang naiinis pa sya sa akin. so nabadtrip din ako! LQ! wahaha! pagtapos non, i went to sit on a fallen tree trunk at sinundan nya ko don. dahil nga LQ kami, di ko sya pinapansin. maya maya biglang, CRAAACK! nabali yung branch na inuupuan ko, nabigatan yata masyado sa akin. bwahahaha!! nalalaglag ako sa ground with my feet up in the air. kahiya! ex no. 2 helped me up on my feet, laughed at the whole incident and just like that, nagkabati na kami. bwahaha! wala lang. reminiscing.

side note: alam nyo ba na foster "brother" ni ge si ex no. 2 nung nag exchange student si ge sa rural? he lived in their house for a week. FYI. ;)

going back to the fair... nagpa henna tatoo muna kami ni ge sa isang booth doon habang inaantay yung main performances. we had it around our wrists. ang mahal nga lang! supposedly mine was priced at 100 bucks. of course i had to make tawad, ang liit liit ng wrist ko tapos 100! no way jose! kaya ayun, 80 na lang. pagtapos ng henna tatooing session namin, we were just in time for cambio's performance. stig! rocker chicks, ummm, ROCK! bwahaha!
pagkatapos ng cambio, sugarfree naman, may mostest super kaduperest favorite pinoy band! yung song nilang "sinta" is now an official GerMaan song. bwahaha! pagtapos ng kanilang performance, we went backstage to have their autograph signed. ang kapal kapal ng mukha ko, i made chika pa with ebe (the band's vocalist). i told him that i was also rural nung high school. he asked pa if i was going to our alumni homecoming and he added that if i see him there, he'll remember me if i'd approach him and say hi. hehe. rubbing elbows with a star. :)
didn't stay around the stage or imago's performance. konti lang nanood sa kanila... after waiting for mela (ge's younger sis), we went back to manila. but our night didn't end there!! dahil wala na namang gagawin the next day, pumunta pa kaming roxas ni ge. hihihi. :) took out some food from 7-11 and just sat on one of the benches there. first time ko pang naka-wiwi sa portalet!! hehe. sayang, we were flat broke that day (lalo na ako, as in mamiso na lang ang natira sa wallet ko!) di na kami nakasama kina elaine at JM sa padi's. went back to the dorm at around 2:30 am.

FPJ:
on our way back to manila, we passed by sto. domingo church. grabe ang haba ng pila at dami ng tao!! FPJs death came as a shocker for many people including me because he didn't exhibit signs of a serious illness. unlike cayetano, who was clearly emanciated no?
kaya lang masyado na naman overly over sensationalized ang pagkamatay ni FPJ. pati sa mga diaryo, nasa front page ang picture ng casket nya. nagiging circus na naman. nawawala na ang "soulful mourning" ika nga. naaawa ako sa kanya. he was used by power hungry politikos last elections, hanggang ngayon ba namang patay na siya ay ginagamit pa rin sya? i heard from the news na "tinaningan ang Arroyo presidency". and who's behind? mga supporters daw ni FPJ. i wouldn't be surprised at all if Susan Roces runs for office in the next elections. wag kang makinig kay Angara! keep your word!

ABE, KATHY, AND TIPPEE'S BIRTHDAY PARTEEEEE!!
Happy birthday to my friends muna! Abe, gurang naaa! Kathy, your biological clock is ticking. same with TP, hanap na ng boys! bwehehehe. ummm, si tippee meron na. kathy? :D
grabe suot ni ge noon. mukhang sya ang may birthday! pogiii. ;) yung mga celebrants were wearing med shirts lang. hehehe.

we went to greenbelt, sa Krocodile grill(ery?) to celebrate their birthdays. ganda talaga don. afterwards "kodakan" (as kathy put it grabe didn't expect that word to come from you!) kami sa may fountains. bwahaha! imed people talaga o, camera shy. after seeing all our pics naman siguro di na kayo maniniwala sa sinabi ko. :D

@kroc grillery

LANTERN PARADE
in true intarmed spirit (and kakapalan), nilead namin sa cheer ang buong college of medicine! exaj talaga, ngayon lang ako nag-enjoy sa lantern parade. last year kasi, naawa ako sa college namin, feeling ko patay na patay kami compared to the other colleges. nursing pa ang katabi namin tapos yung cheers pa nila mga anti-medicine. so this year... ipinakita namin sa kanila!!! hmph! ayan tuloy, im getting excited for next year's lantern parade. kaming class 2010 na ang gagawa ng lantern!

maganda naman yung lantern ng med, kaya nga lang kulang ng oomph factor. you know, the kind that would make people wow! kung mas malaki lang sana, and mas makulay at kung umiilaw, baka sakaling nanalo na kami ng 1st place. pero okay lang, naka-third naman kami this year for the lantern and pati na rin sa facade.

"DATE" :)
dahil baka last na naming magkasama ni ge for this year, we spent some quality time with each other bago sya bumalik ng Q.C. ;) (para namang di kami laging magkasama ano? hehe.) we ate take-out dinner from mario's kitchen and our favorite cake from figaro. yummy yum yum talaga. tapos nanood din kaming magnifico on vcd. truly deserving of all the awards that it got. galing ni jiro manio. ubos na ang luha ni ge kaiiyak! hindi siya todo drama like sharon cuneta/nora aunor films. but the simplicity and yet profundity of magnifico (jiro manio's character)... made the film truly moving.

BAHAY
pagdating ko dito sa bahay namin sa sta. rosa, isang bagay ang bumulaga sa akin. tadaaaa! nagpa landscape (na naman) ang mom ko ng garden namin. may mini fountain na sa garden. ang gandaaaaa. iisipin mong ang sarap mag date sa garden namin. ge, gusto mo dito na lang tayo mag date? bwahahaha! pictures to follow. walang batt ang digicam namin kaya bukas na lang pag sinipag ako. :) oo nga pala, paskong pasko sa bahay namin. ang dami-daming christmas decor. ang motif nga pala ng christmas tree namin ay pink at purple. wahahaha!! maan na maan. 3 yrs. ago na yun pero every year may dinadagdag lang kaming paunti-unti. pictures to follow ulit. ;)

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING:
di pa ubos ang christmas money ko. at wala na akong mabili sa robinson's ermita! lahat ng stores nasuyod ko na. di ko alam kung nagsasawa na ba akong magshopping or wala lang talaga kong magustuhan. bukas pupunta kaming market market! para mag gift shopping. alam ko na kung anong ibibigay namin sa mga pinsan kong girls. sa mga guys wala talaga! hirap talagang regaluhan ng mga lalaki o. sa mga tito and tita wala pa rin kaming naiisip kung anung ibibigay.

WHATEVER:
*happy 20th anniversary to my mom and dad!! gift ko sa kanila caricature nilang dalawa. bwehehehe.

*nagsisimbang gabi kami tuwing 9:00. iba kasi sa don bosco, kung saan kami nagsisimba, literally gabi ang simbang gabi, hindi madaling araw.

*ang gift na lang din ni tinton sa mga classmates nya ay kukis!! so my monday will be spent baking and baking and baking white choco chip cookies using ge's secret recipe. naku pano na yan, di pwede ang secret ingredient pag mag-isa lang ako? bwahahahaha!!

*eto mejo icky. nautusan akong maghugas ng mga platong kinainan namin kaninang tanghali. dahil sa kaantukan, natulog muna ako pagkatapos namin kumain. pagkagising ko nung hapon, sinilip ko kung hugas na ang mga plato. nakita ko nakastack na sila neatly sa isang tabi so nagblog na lang muna ako. maya-maya tinawag ako ni tinton at ipagluto ko daw siya ng pancit canton para sa meryenda. pagkaluto ko, kumuha ako ng plate dun sa stack. pagkatapos kumain ni tinton, huhgasan ko na yung kinainan niya then i suddenly noticed na may remnants ng malunggay yung ibang mga plates don sa stack. oops! di pa pala sila hugas!! and yung plate na pinaglagyan ng pancit canton ni tinton, di pa rin nahuhugasan!! bwahahahahahaha!

*i bought a new wallet na nga pala and it cost 150 bucks lang. fake na benetton. kyut nya, color white tapos may trimming na pink. kaya nga lang ang bilis dumumi. nyorkis. but i've found a replacement na!! yahoo!! now i just need the money to buy it. it's xoxo, saw it in rustan's. not the long one though, maliit lang sya but kasya na lahat ng cards ko. actually i have the money pa pala. kaya lang mejo gagamitin ko muna yung new wallet ko so i won't go hinayang on it.

*random pictures pictures pictures!!!

abe and his small head :D

guess who's applying polish on my toe nails?

physics 51. may mumo sa likod?

smelling Flower, our favorite Sinosisans props :)

my not so distant past(s)

for as long as i could remember, i was the mushiest person i know. growing up, i read all sorts of happily-ever after fairy tales, the kinds of cinderella, sleeping beauty, and a whole bunch more. i was a dreamy kid, conjuring up images of my own prince charming, coming to sweep me off away from the horrors of uhhhm, academic load. :) (yeah, ever since elem i was THAT busy)

ex no. 1
my love life started in grade 6. would you call him my boyfriend? i think not. it was a sheer immature "relationship". he was the typical bad boy... always getting red marks on his card, sweaty everyday because of too much basketball, always called in the guidance counselor's office due to some fight... he was that kind of person. maybe what drew me to him was the "ka-astigan" of being with him. i needed that to get rid of the dorky image that comes with being no.1 in class and the president of the student council. i really thought that it was love, however. :D my first kilig moment was when i was with him. it was our school fair and at canossa, we would have rides installed in our grounds. for that year, we had a caterpillar ride. and so we rode together in one car. i held on to my seat because i get dizzy with fast (and even not so fast) rides. but then his fingers crept slowly to mine until they were just barely touching... those were the good ol' innocent days. that pseudo-holding hands thing completely made my day, i remember. i went to sleep holding the hand of winnie the pooh, the stuffed toy he gave me, imagining that it was his hand holding mine. see, told ya how mushy i am. hahaha! anyway, we parted ways when i transferred to rural. where is he now? i don't know... the last time i heard from him was in 3rd year HS. he was still in canossa but he repeated a year because he failed many subjects miserably. poor guy. hope he's changed now.

ex no. 2
the next guy i was with was my first serious boyfriend. he was the exact opposite of ex no. 1. he was a jack-of-all-trades: being the no.1 in our batch, a skilled basketball/volleyball player, crush ng bayan, a great leader and so much more... he was idolized by everybody. the perfect catch, ika nga. our time together was a test to how much i could sacrifice in a relationship. at first, everything was just perfect. being the "and they lived happily ever after" person that i was, i really thought that it could be him. however we were physically separated when he went to japan as an exchange student. first there were emails every week, a few handwritten letters, a few phone calls. as the year passed by, our communication almost dwindled to nothing. i was having the time of my life at school, but he was not there to share it with me. we just got emotionally distant that by the time he was back, i was a completely different person, and so was he. we tried holding on to the relationship until the first few months of college but it didn't really work out. we called it quits and separated as friends. i still see him once in a while whenever i chance upon him in diliman. funny how life goes on, one moment my life revolved around him, but now, he is just a guy that i once knew...

exes 1 and 2 are not merely numbers that would inflate my ego that yeah, i had my own share of admirers. :) they contributed a lot to my understanding of boys (uhmmm, men) in general, and of loving young.

*wag magseselos, gerald! wihihihi! jowk lang. ;)

galeeeng talagaaaa!

ang ganda ng imed site namin. astig! galing ni master julian! henyo!!!!!

wanna see what the intarmed people are made of? click
HERE HERE HERE! or sa links ko. :) I LOVE IMED 2010!!!

halos maubos na internet card ko. exaaaaaj. wala akong magawa.

school's out!! (again and again and again)

gosh. NO CLASSES AGAIN. almost 2 weeks na kaming walang ginagawa. nakakawalang gana na tuloy mag-aral, nawawalan ako ng momentum. 2 beses ko ng inaral yung iqquiz namin sa zoo lab, at 2 beses na ring hindi natutuloy. ano ba naman yaaaan!! sayang ang brain cells ko. conserve, aba aba!! malayo pa ang paglalakbay. bwehehehe.

sabi ko nga pala sa previous post ko na nararamdaman kong wala kaming pasok nung tuesday. meron pala, hihihihi. kagabi, di man lang pumasok sa isip ko na mawawalan kami ng classes ngayon. tsk, ang hina na ng psychic powers ko.

but you know what, i feel kinda guilty rin everytime na nagwwish akong walang pasok.. sasabihin ko pa, sana may bagyo bukas, sana walang pasoooook!! di ko man lang naisip na maraming namamatay, nawawala at nasakatan tulad nung bagyong katatapos lang... palibhasa kasi di masyadong ramdam dito sa manila or sa sta. rosa kapag bumabagyo eh. GUILTY!! waaah! pero ang lakas ni yoyong ano and it's kinda scary na. signal no.4?! exaj naman. kawawa naman yung mga hard hit areas....

kanina ko pa iniisip kung anong tagalog sa guilty... di ko maalala!!!!

ibang kwento naman. :D

had a long day yesterday. and the day before yesterday. hehehe. last tuesday night,
ge, kathy, sheng and i prepared 40 crowns for our entire class. tapos nun, gumawa naman kami ng aming napakagandang banner! aba, di yata papatalo ang intarmed! at habang gumagawa kami ng banner, inaayos din namin yung paper namin for sts. ano ba yaaaan!!! kapagod. slept around 1 am na.

kinabukasan, ang aga ko pa rin gumising. kailangan kasing idistribute pa sa mga classmates yung mga props nila. hehehe. may kyoot yellow balloons pa kami!!! tingnan nyo!!!

THE MAKINGS OF A SUPER CLASS :)

my prince charming

... with the princess!

hahahahaha!! pagtapos naman ng parade and opening program (which took up most of our morning), nagdecorate naman ang imed 2010 and 2011 ng MSU building. in fairness, ang ganda ng kinalabasan!! we had a hard time finding decors that would fit our small budget. still, may class naman yung kinalabasan ng dekorasyon namin! and laugh trip pa yung paggawa ng belen! kung anu-anong kalokohan ang pumapasok sa isip namin! bwahahahahaha! tingnan nyo na lang sa blog ni ge yung belen. tinatamad na akong maglagay pa ng pics. i swear, my internet's so bagaaaaaaaaal like 2 minutes mag load ang isang page. annoying!! don't buy BLAST internet card!!!

naalala ko na tagalog sa guilty. NAKOKONSENSYA. di ba? tagal kong inisip. :D

rainy days and mondays

wheee lemme guess. we won't have classes AGAIN tomorrow. sa tapat pa lang ng dorm namin, baha na. i don't know if i'll be happy about that or not. if we don't have classes it'll actually be in my favor because i'm still not feeling well. however, i can tolerate sitting and listening to boring lectures naman...

PERO!!!!

kung wala na naman kaming pasok bukas, almost 1 week na kaming walang pasok!! thursday was the transport strike. friday was when we had TRP; we were supposed to have zoo lec but lo and behold! ma'am co didn't make it to class. maybe she did. but after 30 mins of waiting, umeskapo na kami bago pa sya dumating. hwehehehehe. i'm sorry but rules are rules. then today is a national holiday. then on wednesday the college of medicine will be having its centennial celebration. no classes for us again.

glad? i think not. hello cramming na naman and patong patong na requirements. goodbye movies!!!

pero i guess NOT having classes is still fun eh? hehehe. if only it wouldn't have such dire consequences on our part. :P

how to tell the monkey is sick



achoo.


all i want for christmas

because christmas is just around the corner..

1. no. 1 on my list is... A BETTER PHILIPPINES! serioso, no joke at all! dr. cordero is really effective in putting across the essence of what FCH is trying to impart with us. his lectures awakened my pagka-pilipino and opened my eyes to the sad reality that is happening around us. too bad the world is fast becoming a selfish one, kanya kanya na ang mga tao. of course, it's just survival of the fittest in action, but at the expense of others. sa kagustuhang umunlad ng mga pilipino, nararamdaman natin ang brain drain sa ngayon. actually, matagal-tagal na... kaya naman lalo nang nalugmok sa kahirapan ang pilipinas eh. no more bright minds to oil philippines' machinery for development. tsk, how utterly depressing.. kawawa naman tayo. kelan pa tayo uunlad?!

2. a new wallet, preferrably one of those long types. i haven't seen one that i really like. or something that's worth my money. i don't like the plain wallets na. i want color color color!! owkay lang sa tiangge sana, i wish they don't put the fake brand na lang.

3. a pink jacket!! i almost cried (exaj naman, but i was real sad) when my uber favorite pink jacket got ripped. haven't gotten around buying a new one since i end up with no money at all after buying clothes and abubot that i don't really need. prospects: the white and fuschia knitted one from bayo. also the trench-like but short lang that i saw... where?!! sa bayo rin ata.

4. kumot. i only use 2 kumots na pinagpapalit palit ko lang... *sniff sniff* what's so special about my kumots is their one of a kind softness and texture. they're FLANNEL. the only material that could warm me up even if my aircon is turned on to the coldest setting.

5. flats. i enjoy wearing them!! they go well with jeans, skirts or capris. i swear, ukayans have the coolest and cheapest flats on earth!! kaya lang. i really have to search for cleaner ones. punta nga kami ni ge sa ukayan when i get my christmas money for christmas shopping na!

6. clothes and accesories. different colored shirts from atc that cost 90 bucks LANG each. white pants from bayo. cool hide-the-flab blouses from whoops. cheap but asteeeg skirts from sm and robinson's department store. swatch-like watch na kyooot talaga and mura talagaaaa (350 lang, compared naman sa 2000+ from swatch) from the gift factory.

7. delicious food for noche buena and media noche BUT! minus the extra pounds. i love christmas ham. and turkey!! and molo. and pansit malabon!

8. more blessings for my family. thank you god for being so nice to us. :)

that's about it!!

some other kwento...

i'm not so nerdy anymore! bought new contacts earlier. disposable ones. i think they're better than extended wear because they're cheaper (3 pairs for P770), plus, i get to dispose of them monthly so there'll be less protein build up that cause irritation to my dear eyes.

i've also been to the dentist earlier. my new elastics are colored furfol!! :D

hehehe. unexpectedly, i was finally able to watch UPCM men's volleyball play in palarong med, even for a short while. si ge kasi eh, ang aga pumuntang alabang country club. told him to go to our house na lang muna... we ate lunch then i went with him to atc because i had to buy contacts nga. then sa country club na lang ako nagpasundo sa parents ko. nakagala tuloy ako. happy pa. :D

attended my cousin's debut din kanina. gosh, andami kong ginawa today! i wore my skirt that i bought sa ukayan for 50 bucks. i kept telling my cousins and titos, titas that it only cost P50! di sila makapaniwala!!

i want to have a party on my next birthday. a debut!! but dahil di na ako 18, it'll be a "coming of age party" na lang. hehehehehe. god willing. and time willing. :)

*hikab* sleepy. church day tomorrow, i have to wake up early. goodnight cyberworld!!

what the hell am i doing

i should be studying now!!!! i have a zoo lab quiz tomorrow, a lab manual to be submitted and a physics problem set to be submitted also. pero ayan, blog hopping pa ko hahaha!! pano ba naman kasi i drank two glasses of ice cold coffee and now i feel that i'm having palpitations making me kinda jumpy and nervous when i don't have anything to be nervous about. basta, queasy feeling. kaya i stopped studying muna and tried to find answers to the guide q's in the manual but ended up blog hopping and blogging instead. pero okay lang i don't feel pressured (as of now hahaha mamaya i know i'll be panicking na) kasi my classes tomorrow will not start til 1pm. i still have the entire morning to study the slides for zoo lab. tapos baka there's no classes pa bukas because of the transport strike. my dad told me that by 5am tomorrow, tsaka pa lang malalaman if suspended ang classes sa metro manila.

wait lang i'll click the spermiogenesis result muna sa google.

wednesdays are toxic!!! to think that our subjects today are yung mga you could consider "wala lang". but nooo! sts na sabi ng buddies namin is a complete waste of time kasi you do nothing but sit turns out to be the most toxic subject as of now. reporting and that terminal paper plus some other papers that he would like us to submit. IPC pa. how OC naman the doctor. my god, nagqquiz kami! the only relief is FCH. i soooo like dr.cordero. hehehe. witty sense of humor.

my back is hurting again. waaah!

the college of medicine has many activities this coming december. finally, a breather from all that academic stuff!! lots of gastos too.

gotta go na. outie!!

kagabi, well actually kaninang madaling araw, telebabad kami ni ge with our sun sims. hwekekekekek. 2 oras din yon. sulitin sulitin! kainis lang, every 15 minutes napuputol. tapos calling AGAIN is really testing what little patience i have. pero sige go pa rin, kausap ko naman SIYA eh. hehehe. sarap matulog afterwards. my aircon is freezing my butt off but whatthehell. ang warm ng sleep ko. *kilig* :)

the first onset of REAL classes

haaay. it's such a drag, i'm blogging in an almost week-long basis. thanks to my super high speed internet connection sa dorm (that's uber tainted with sarcasm), i've only gone online for a couple of hours. doing research, whatelse?

hindi ko pa marerealize na simula na talaga ang pasukan kung di pa kami nag-quiz sa zoo lec last tuesday. this is it! eto na talaga. wala ng atrasan. sinundan pa yun ng two quizzes sa physics at reporting sa zoo lec na naman. sabi na nga ba eh. yang maluwag na sked na iyan, pakitang tao lang, hihihi. ang toxic, sobraaaa! lalo na yung sts namin (science, technology and society) which SHOULD BE A WALA LANG COURSE BUT WHAT THE HELL WE GOT A TOXIC TEACHER. we even have a friggin group "terminal paper" (as prof dla put it, he uses big big words! i mean terminal is not really big, i know but he could have said term paper na lang da ba but he's really maarte with his words) that rendered us catatonic. he said that kaya. kaya major laughtrip din sa amin ni ge yung sts. add to that that he always says okaaaay, or kaaaaaay. binilang nga namin. around 5-6 okaaaaaaay/kaaaaaay per minute! wahahaha! sutil.

okay. this is fun. i'll say a bit about our teachers muna.

you know prof dla na. yeah, and dr. co din, our zoo lec instructor. the ms quotation queen. i wanna add something lang. I DON'T GET HER. i think i have to read the book before all those tthings she said would make sense. sorry na lang ako, i don't do advance reading. all those handouts are piling up and i haven't gone through 1/4 of them. oh my oh my.

ma'am borja for physics 52. "gets mo?" she teaches really fast but i'm learning. i'm actually forced to listen to the lectures because we have quiz/zes afterwards. sana lang she doesn't make baby talk to me like what she did last sem, physics 51.1. crap!

dr. nicolas. the dean pala of AS. good teacher but biochem is still chem... oh god oh god help me. the module is color blue din like the org chem. deja vu? shiaaaat. I SIT IN FRONT NA. btw, she's our teacher din pala for natsci 50. molecules to man. how can we get so friggin lucky?! 2 chem subjects in a sem. oh yes sireeee! saya sayaaaa!

prof. jaravata for zoo 30. kewl teacher. we didn't understand and see all those spermatids/spermatocyte/spermatogonia under the microscope kaya she'll be providing us with pictures para ma-pinpoint nya which exactly is which. coolness.

dr. dizon (tama ba?) for ipc, history of medicine. OC teacher. OC doctor. asks too much from us, considering that IPC units is enclosed in parentheses. yebaaa!

dr. cordero for fch (family and community health). like him like him like him! he's very passionate about what he's doing and i hope all doctors are like him.. you know, all those shit about serve the filipino people apply to him. funny pa! super maka-UP. hahaha!

sir baclig (again) for physics 52.1. he's mabait really but he's super sensitive! maingay pa naman ang block namin and he takes it personally na maingay kami.. sheesh. but he's mabait naman eh so okay lang.

there you have it. so if i go crazy over the sem... blame one of them.

----------

ay, may ikukuwento pa ako!!!!!!!!!!! had a crazy experience yesterday! i was hurrying along taft because i was going to meet my groupmates for our report. as in i was walking big long strides kasi we have to go over our report slash presentation pa and we only have 1 hr left. while i was walking...oops! bakit bigla kong na-feel yung concrete? i looked back. i saw the slip-ons that i was wearing. sabi ko sa sarili ko, kahiya naman, naiwan ko yung tsinelas ko... so sinuot ko ulit. and guess what? it's napigtal pala!! oh my god. how utterly embarrassing! i was bending down trying to fix it kahiya talaga!! and i couldn't fix it! i walked dragging my foot kasi nga the tsinelas comes off! i called gerald and told him what happened. hihihi, kumakain pala sya.. he had to leave his food pa just to get to me. he borrowed sandals ni carlos and it was so so big for me. at least i have footwear naman to walk all the way back to the dorm. so there, changed shoes sa dorm. that, to date, is my most embarrassing experience! as in i saw this lady riding a taxi laughing at me! the taxi kasi was naka-stop kasi sa stop light kaya medyo may build-up of traffic sa tapat ko. nakakahiya talagaaaaa! funny rin. :p

----------

ninakaw ko sa blog ni ge kasi i like it talaga. :)



kyoot no? lalo na yung braso ko. that was taken at his birthday party.

i'm off!!

kati kati!!

i really wanna blog as in my fingers are absolutely itching to type something. but i have to go!! later na lang. so to get that itch out i'll just say na i have to go. owki.. later!

the internet sa dorm is just so bagaaaaal what the hell!

ang mga nakalipas na araw

friday, 12 november
so ayun. may birthday party si ge sa bahay nila. casual lang, according to the invitation. pagdating namin sa kanila... tadaaaa! hahaha! mukhang pang formal na debut. kumpleto dekorasyon pa. christmas lights, flower arrangements, etc! hihihi. owkay, the rest of the kwento i'll leave it up to ge. ah basta, nasa hot seat ako non! puro kantyaw ang inabot ko. hwehehehe. i had fun. ;)

dapat don na ko susunduin sa bahay nila ng parents ko kasi didiretso na kaming baguio. kaya lang my dad didn't want to drive sa madaling araw, madilim, okay lang sana if we're familiar with the roads na dadaanan namin. eh hindi... so balik pa ako ng dorm at don naghintay til 4 am! super wasted ako. nagbihis lang and then slept. nevermind kung di na ako naligo. pano ba naman kasi, had tequila. di naman ako sanay. ayun. bagsak.

sabaday, 13 november
we have new ford everest nga pala. hehehe, kaya kami pumunta ng baguio para itesting! hahaha! jowk. anyway, eto pic namin ng pinsan ko and ng bro ko. stop over namin sa may luisita...



we arrived at baguio around lunch time. hanap hanap ng lodging and we ended up don sa tinirhan nila ge when they went to baguio.

tapos we went to burnham park. sakay kami ng boat nung pinsan ko. ang kyoot ng pinsan ko!! hihihi. kamukha ko sya nung baby ako.



then punta kami sa ukay ukay! bought 3 skirts and 1 shoes. total cost: 370 LANG! kasalukuyang nasa laundry bin sila ngayon kasi i bet they're so full of alikabok! nagkasipon kami ng kapatid ko pagkagaling namin sa ukayan. sya naman, he was able to buy a kappa jacket (which i think is orig) for 150 bucks. and nice blue checkered chucks for 600. orig din yun. nice.

sunday, 14 november
happy birthday sa aking pinakagwapong daddy! 47 na pero mukhang 30+ lang. miski may gerald na ako, kayo pa rin ang no.1 lalaki sa buhay ko! naks, enough bola na, hihihi.

san san ba kami pumunta? nagsimba muna kami sa cathedral nila, fully packed! exoj! then balik sa ukayan wala lang, huling tingin. too early though at wala na akong nabili pa, sarado pa yung ibang stalls. tapos sa mines view park. bought lots of pasalubong and took lots of pictures. then punta muna kami good shepherd for their world famous ube jam. kaya lang 2pm pa daw available... so kain muna kami sa barrio fiesta. and i had an expereience there with an igorot man...



hihihi!! ang kapatid ko naman, may experience with the doggies!!



ayan, balik kami good shepherd, just in time for the ube. shet, pagdating don, ang haba ng pila!! 2 hrs kami nakapila just to buy their ube. but it's G-O-O-D!

then punta kaming camp john hay. wala lang don. tingin tingin lang.

most of the time eh nawawala kami. hwehehehe! ilang "pare" na ang napagtanungan namin just to go to a particular destination. pansin ko pa, puro rotunda sa baguio! everytime we pass by one, sasabihin ng pinsan ko, di ba nakapunta na tayo dito? hehehe.

at bigla na akong tinamad magkwento. hehehe.

monday, 15 november
andito na ko sa dorm. balik school na naman. speaking of school, have to research pa for zoo. haaaay. yoko ng zoo namin ngayon, embryology!! nyorkis. di naman masyadong magaling magturo yung teacher. sabog sabog.

gerald

last night could have been the happiest day of my life... :) the funny thing is, we didn't even do anything! we just sat, goofed around and talked about everything for hours. i wouldn't have asked for anything more. i'm in a state of utter completeness right now. happy happy happy!!!!!! :D and no, it's not my birthday. feel ko lang na birthday ko rin! hehehe. happy birthday GE!! i love you honey. ;)

so if you see me smiling like bangag for no reason at all, you know why. :)

day one

it was only this morning that i hauled all my things back to my dorm. as in HAUL. hahaha! ang bibigat ng mga maleta ko. at andami dami kong dalang kung anu-anong abubot. parang dala ko ang buong bahay namin. well actually, dala ko ang buong kwarto ko! parang ganon.

napagsabihan na naman ako ng mom ko. and my dad too. last night when i was packing all my stuff, she can't stop saying ANG DAMI MONG DAMIIIIT! kainis pa, may dad kept on repeating ANG DAMI MONG DAMIT!!!! ayan tuloy, nagatungan pa yung mom ko at napagsabihan na naman tuloy ako for my excessive shopping for the nth time... i feel bad. very baaaad. from now on, NECESSITIES ONLY! just ONE last purchase. i made my decision to buy THAT (secret! for reasons i cannot disclose) while i was forcing myself to sleep. and no ge, hindi yun regalo sa iyo. harharhar! malalaman mo rin kung ano yun dahil sasabihin ko bukas. at hindi rin yun regalo sa dad ko!! hahahahaha!! SIKWET.

going back... may class dapat ako ng 7-9. PE. bakit naman ako papasok don di ba? so yung 11:30 zoo lec class na lang ang pinasukan ko. FRIGGIN AMAZING. 'ba klase! whew! nag-lecture na agad yung teacher naming ms quotation queen. kept saying all those verses from the bible, quotes by og mandino and others. however, note to self no. 1: SIT IN FRONT and be a dork. hehe, alam nyo naman... new sem resolutions. that manage to get broken as the sem goes by. :p

pagtapos ng zoo kain muna kami ni raldy :) sa go nuts. hehehe. junk na naman. increased MSG intake once again. it follows na i'll be constantly craving for food. na kakagatan or titikman ko lang ng konti... and then donate to gerald. hehehe! note to self no.2: STOP!! baaaad maan! love your body and nourish it with the right vitamins and minerals and nutrients. san naman ako hahanap non? i had sukiyakidon for dinner nga from karate kid which i'm 100% sure is super kaduper saturated with MSG.

where was i? after go nuts we went back to the dorm to fix some stuff and then back to rob again to watch the incredibles! incredibly A-M-U-S-I-N-G watch it watch it watch it!! KATHY!! you missed it! then back to the dorm again. and then WHAM! isang malaking WHAM! wala akong gagawin. manonood sana ako ng dvd kaya lang yung earphones ko nakina ge. tinatamad pa akong bumili ng internet card sa baba (goodbye dsl... tears). kaya i forced myself to sleep! for like 2 hrs i was just lying on my bed with my eyes shut... kaya lang, ayaw talaga!! sanay ako ng may ginagawa sa kwarto na to! 15 mins lang siguro ako nakatulog. nyorkis. pagod tuloy ang feeling ko. finally bought an internet card. so here i am. semi-insomniac for tonight. put me in an asylum if i start reading my ORG CHEM manual out of sheer boredom.

put me to sleeeeep. alas-siyete pa klase ko bukas!!

Sunday, November 07, 2004

ooh la la!

over breakfast my dad said, "punta tayong SM after lunch".

the other sounds faded away... all i can think of was SM? punta tayong SM?!

yeaaaah! semi-shopping haven! you can find lots of cheap stuff sa department store. there's always something WORTHY (and kinda cheap too) to look at.

and ooooh yes! i have money!

but you know what? i end up din NOT buying from the department store. wihihihi.

but then again.. there are still lots of eye candy. ;)

nyorkis

i downloaded closing time by MATCHBOX 20 over limewire.

guess what?

it's by semisonic rin pala! kwenkwenk. isang malaking joke.

----------

i can almost bite anything with my braces!! wahoo! pero carefully lang.

napakawalang kwenta. i'm so scatterbrained right now. must be because i just woke up. at wala namang magandang ikwento ngayon. wala naman masyadong nangyari... nakapag-reg na ko, ayun lang. and get this, 16.5 units LANG! well, PA LANG. wala pa kasing nat sci4 eh.. but i wish we'll be taking nat sci5 instead. nat sci4 is earth: our habitat and 5 is biodiversity. wish ko lang walang mga bato bato sa 4.

ay oo, masaya nga pala kahapon. :D nagkita kami ni ge eh. wehehehehe! at nagkwentuhan ng nagkwentuhan. yun lang. :)

----------

mas masarap gamitin ang broas instead of graham crackers when you make ref cake. try nyo! lasang chiffon cake ang kakalabasan.

----------

just great. for the nth time this morning that friggin phone calls are annoying me. my mom and dad kasi are like window shopping lang for a car yesterday. i think every car dealer they've visited has already called! and i'm the only one at home so i have to answer all their questions.



----------

mamayang hapon na lang, baka may maikwento na ako ulit.

ang wish ko: sana di ako tamaring mag-blog pag may pasok na... waaah!! walang dsl sa dorm!

sheeet. malapit na ang pasukan. sana magaan nga ang sem na 'to. when i look at my form 5 i see all those free time we have. but appearances can be deceiving. baka nga ang dami daming free time pero andami din naman dapat aralin at gawin!

sige na.. sana naman pagbigyan ni lord ang imed na ma-feel kahit papano ang easy easy na college life. last sem before med proper!


which is pretty SCARY actually. but i am excited at the same time.

lust

the new nokia 6260 *drools*


remembering them

all saints' day or all souls' day wasn't really such an event for our family because we only have a few close relatives who have passed away. although we visit the cemeteries and pray for them, that was it. no nostalgia whatsoever because i didn't know our dead that much. the holidays would only affect me and my brother in the sense that we are more wary of the ghastly elements all around us. thanks to the halloween specials on television.

but all that has changed some 4 years ago. my lolo passed away and was finally relieved of all those pain that he has been having for so long. 3 years after after his death, my lola, his wife, joined him in eternal slumber.

undas had all the more meaning for our family ever since.

i was my lolo's favorite. i was his very first apo, and a girl at that. i grew up in their house because my mom and dad were both working then. my earliest memories of my lolo were of him in his office and a nosey little me on his lap. i would tinker with his typewriter on the desk until all the keys would lock up. hehehe. yep, i was already THAT makulit. :p

during family get togethers, the whole of our family would stay at their house. while my cousins and i play, our mothers and my lola would be in the kitchen preparing yet another feast for lunch. after the sumptuous lunch (now you know where i got those extra pounds, hehehe), our lolo would make us children sleep. all 8 of us would squeeze ourselves in on my lolo and lolo and lola's bed. and then the aircon would start to whir. we would try to sleep while our lolo watched over us, with a belt on hand. if one wouldn't sleep and would instead make kulit on his cousin beside him... WHIP goes the belt. hehehe. being the favorite that i was, i was always spared from the ouchy whips of his belt.

by 4 pm, we would wake up, eat merienda and play some more. at 6 pm, our lolo would call us again to pray our rosary. my lolo and lola are devout catholics so at an early age, my cousins and i were taught how to pray the rosary. after praying the rosary, me and my cousins would state all our intentions. common to all of us was "sana gumaling na po sina lolo at lola".

ever since i could remember, they have been suffering from heart problems and diabetes (which i have probably inherited and could manifest if i don't watch my diet). that's why while i was growing up, i've always wanted to be a doctor, so that i could cure my lolo and lola. as what i've written on the essay for the second screening for intarmed, when asked with the question, why do you want to be a doctor?, i answered exactly just that. but of course, now that i'm all grown up, and my grandparents have already passed away, my concept of "curing" not only encompassed curing my loved ones. i want to help all those people in need.

i only got to know my lola when my lolo has already passed away. by then, she was also paralyzed after a series of strokes. my mother decided that she would be living with us. my mom would always say that her parents had given them everything they needed. now that they are the ones needy, it was time for them to repay their parents.

unfortunately (or fortunately), God had other plans. after a few months of living with us, my lola spent her last day on earth. she died on the same rocking chair that my lolo was also sitting on when he died.

both of them were cremated. it was during their funerals that i cried the hardest in my entire life.

yesterday, we spent all saints' day with our relatives, at my tita's house because my grandparents' urn was kept there. it was just like our family get togethers when they were still alive but the difference now is that they're gone and everybody's grown up. we ate a delicious lunch. instead of sleeping, my cousins and i watched the punisher on dvd. after watching, we ate merienda. then it was time to pray. we prayed the rosary, as a family just how our grandparents taught us. i missed them then because they were not there to see us. that would have made them happy. but i know that they were with us, deep inside our hearts. :)

eternal rest grant unto them, o lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
may they rest in peace, amen.

thanks!!

random stuff

braces

my dentist has finally finished putting all those metal in my mouth. they hurt like hell but in time i'll get used to it. can't eat everything i want to because it hurts to masticate. and it's also hard to carry out the deglutition process because my teeth cannot perform a thorough mechanical breakdown of the food that i've ingested. wahahahahaha!! ayan, mapipilitan na akong kumain ng konti. :D

right now, they're color feenk, what else?

i like my dentist. she's competent, young and approachable. i don't get bored even if i'm just lying there with my mouth open for like around 4 hours! she even gave me a mirror so that i could watch my teeth being "excavated". PLUS: she wears light blue by d&g, my favorite perfume. asan ang koneksyon? :)

----------

happy halloween!!

full moon pa rin ba? sayang, di sumabay sa halloween or all saints' day or all souls' day. that would have made the ambience during those days even more spookier! just looking at the moon last night got me goosebumps. i could almost imagine a wolf howling awwoooooo! yeah, i'm THAT sissy. but i never learn. watched feng shui twice already and the grudge again when i went to manila last wednesday. but it's the american version this time. pinapahirapan ko lang sarili ko. why do i keep on watching horror flicks? geeesh.

----------

NMAT

at dahil malapit ng mag-november, malapit ng mag-december.malapit na ang NMAT! shet. i swear, hindi ako magrereview. pero nakakapanic no pag lahat na ng kaklase ko nagrereview tapos ako hindi magrereview? ah basta. i'm not going to review for it. kelangan ko lang naman maka-40% eh. :)

----------

another word

do you know what a squeegee is? yung mga ginagamit na panlinis ng windshield ng sasakyan. ya know, yung mga nandon sa gasoline stations. kyut ng word no, squeegee!! the next time i have a pet, i'll name it squeegee! :)

am i the only one who doesn't know what a squeegee is?

what my brother would do for pasa load

he's such a clown, i'm tellin you.

whoopdeda. that's all for now. dvd marathon naman. :)

unrequited love

for some unknown reason, I MISS MANILA. yeah, THE manila i so lovingly loathe during classes. but i was bouncy/uppity/jumpy kaya while i was walking along taft avenue the other day. i felt like i wanted to do an ala-maria stint, ya know... "the streets are alive, with the sound of traaaafffiiiiccc!", with my arms outstreched. hahaha! :D

kaya lang. i felt unwanted.

inamin ko na nga sa sarili ko na na-miss ko ang maynila. and guess what i got in return?!

a shiny and outrageously ready to pop ZIT. right smack on my forehead.

sorry avril fans...

ms. lavigne looks like an anorexic skunk in her video nobody's home.

wala lang. i remembered it just now. i saw the video while i was on the bus earlier this day. ooops. that was yesterday na pala. as of now, it's 12:59 am and i can't seem to get enough of blogging.

i have a 9 am appointment with my dentist tomo... oops i did it again (nyahahaha!! imagine britney's song playing in the background, korny ba?) TODAY. i should be sleeping already! naaaah. i'm used to lack of sleep. the length of time i sleep during my afternoon siesta (3-4 hrs) is usually the only sleep that i get when we're so intoxicated (as
gerald would put it. go see his blog now!! click it, baby!!).

*hikab* kaya nga lang i'm not used to it na. what, after being an absolute couch potato (a better term naman than pig di ba?) for the past 3 weeks.

that should be all for today.

hulaan ang title!! (ala-maalaala mo kaya)

bigla naman akong napa-reminisce dahil sa ikinuwento ni ge sa akin kanina sa ym. naaaliw akong balikbalikan ang mga nangyari nung mga nagdaang taon! 5 months pa lang kami, pero ang tagal naming "in the making". hehehe. ibig sabihin, hindi kami love at first sight. it's far from that. siguro love after taking a second, erm, third... uhh, fourth look. you get the picture. ibig kong sabihin, hindi sa isang iglap lang nabuo ang "kami". hehehe. i'm enjoying this. :D magtatagalog ako para dramatic. hahaha.

unang umeksena si mr. abesamis sa aking buhay noong kami'y 2nd year H.S. pa lamang. siya'y galing UPIS. siya, kasama si carla, ay ang mga ipinadala ng kanilang eskwelahan upang maging exchange students sa aming mutyang rural. unang impresyon ko sa kanya: NERD. hahaha! at malalaman ko rin ngayong imed na ang unang impresyon din pala nya sa akin ay: NERD!

hindi kami masyadong naging close noon. paano ba naman, ang lagi niyang kasama dati ay si arnel, yung lalaking patay na patay sa akin! hahaha. dati, lagi kong iniiwasan si arnel. alam nyo na, nakakaasiwa kasi na alam mong may gusto yung isang tao sa iyo. normal lang naman yung ganon sa hayskul o sa elementary di ba? (ano bang tagalog ng elementary? i suck.) pero close na kami ni arnel ngayon. lumalayo na ko sa usapan. ang weird naman pakinggan kapag diretsong tagalog. ah basta.

ang naaalala ko pa noon, nagkagusto daw si gerald sa isa sa mga kabarkada ko. si hani! oo nga. hahaha! totoo ba yon ge?

ayun. pagkatapos ng ilang araw nang pamamalagi sa rural, dumating ang oras na kinailangan na naming mamaalam sa aming mga bagong kaibigan. (wow, i'm proud of this sentence! pang maalaala mo kaya!!!) binigyan namin sila ng aming batch shirt na kulay apple green tapos pinirmahan namin ito at sinulatan ng kung anu-anong mga mensahe. makikita ko muli yang apple green na kamiseta (shirt?) na yan pagdating ng intarmed.

pagkaalis nila, nag text text pa rin kami, pero nakalimutan na rin ang isa't isa pagkalipas ng ilang buwan... ipinagpatuloy na ang sari-sariling buhay.. at pag-ibig. (aaaah! i love this, this is soooo dramatic! ) di nagtagal, nabura na ang "gerald" sa phonebook ko.

halos dalawang taon ang lumipas bago kami muling nagkita. aba, at si gerald, intarmed din pala! di nakapagtataka, naisip ko. oo nga pala, nerd yon. hahaha! joke lang. :)

nasa college of dentistry ako nun, kasama si gideon at krista, mga kapwa ruralite na pumasa rin sa intarmed. nagkukwentuhan kami habang naghihintay ng aming dental check-up nang biglang may bumaba sa hagdan na MAINGAY! tiningnan ko. mukhang pamilyar ang lalaking ito ah. sabi ko kay gideon, di ba si geraRd yon? yung exchange student dati? subalit di kami nakakasigurado.

ang huling naaalala ko sa araw na iyon (tama ba 'to? my last memory of that day), nagkausap din kami ni geraRd. muling nagbalik si "geraRd" sa phonebook ko.

ayan, pasukan naaa!! unang semestre ng unang taon. noon ko lang naalala (kasi nirinig ko nung ipinakilala niya ang kaniyang sarili) na geraLd nga pala at hindi geraRd. hahahahaha!

parehong mahapdi ang aming mga puso noong unang semestre (heartbroken, wahahaha!). tanda ko, nagpapalitan pa nga kami ng mga "i miss you" at mga senti na mensahe sa text upang i-forward sa kanya kanya naming mga... hmmm... "nakaraan". (nice.)

kaya lang di pa rin kami masyadong close.. ako'y nakatira sa isang dormitoryo habang siya'y nag-uuwian naman. nanonood na kami ng mga kapwa ko dormers ng sine habang si gerald ay nasa biyahe na pauwi. hahaha! nakakapagod yon no! at na-realize din naman nya. kaya naman nung ikalawang semestre, nagdormitoryo na rin sya... at ka-dorm ko pa!

don na nagsimula ang aming pagkakaibigan. :D

natatandaan ko, noong bagong lipat pa lamang siya, may isang gabing ang tagaaaaal naming nagkwentuhan at nagtsismisan! simula noon lagi ko nang kakwentuhan si ge. aliw kausap, animated, malikot at nakakatawa! higit sa lahat, may sense kausap. at dahil nga ka-dorm ko rin sya, sabay na kaming umuwi, pumasok, ganon. di nagtagal, siya na ang lagi kong kasama... nag-aaral ng zoo, gumagawa ng reports, nag-aaral ng calc, etc! marami pala kaming parehong gusto at parehong ayaw. katulad ng pareho kaming mahilig kumain (aba, nagulat na lang ako nung minsang nasa ministop ako upang bumili ng meryenda! nandon din siya, naghahanap rin ng makakain! hahaha.), mamili ng mga damit, at kung anu-ano pa. at ayaw namin sa math. roar! may isang beses pa na nagkatuwaan kaming huwag mag-usap. ang maunang makipag-usap, talo! talo SIYA! bwahahahahahaha!! :D

pero noong mga panahon na iyon, wala lang yon. ;) ang lokohan nga namin dati, paano pag naging si gerald at maan? HAHAHAHAHA! tatawa na lang kami.

nag-iba ang ihip ng hangin nung minsang pumunta kami ng diliman upang saksihan ang dual meet ng rural at IS. kaming dalawa lang ang magkasama. at dahil ako ay walang kaalam alam sa pagbibiyahe noon (hanggang ngayon naman yata eh, di pa rin ako marunong pumunta ng diliman mag-isa... at ayaw din naman akong payagan mag-isa ng isang tao jan.), inihatid pa niya ako pabalik ng maynila. kakaiba naramdaman ko noong araw na iyon. parang... ang saya saya ko! at ayaw ko pang umuwi. gusto ko, nakasakay na lang sa kotse nya at lilibot lang kami kung saan saan. hahaha!

naguguluhan ako noon. at kinikilig na rin! hahaha! (tadaaaa. ayan, nagsisimula na ang mga mushy) di ko na nakayanan na itago sa sarili ko ang mga nararamdaman ko kaya't sinabi ko na kay sheng, ang aking roommate. hehehe. nagsimula na rin akong mag-save ng mga mensahe ni gerald na binibigyan ko ng meaning. (what i mean is, yung mga nakakakilig na messages, i placed them in a folder. nyaaaa!)

sus. alam ko naman noong mga panahong na yon na may nararamdaman na rin siya. ayaw lang sabihin. torpe!! :)

nahihirapan na akong magtagalog.

so ayun nga. ganon na kaming dalawa. alam namin pareho pero walang gusto na maunang umamin. hahaha. dumating ang bakasyon. pumunta ako sa korea. guess what? ka-chat ko siya araw-araw. pag-uwi sa pilipinas, walang nagbago. ganoon pa rin... ayan, summer classes na.

hanggang may isang maliit na insidente na nangyari... kung tutuusin, hindi pala maliit. iyon ang nagbago ng lahat. basta. hindi ako ang dapat magkuwento. si gerald ang concerned don. hehehe. sa mga hindi nakakaalam, tanong nyo na lang sa kanya... ewan ko lang kung sasabihin niya sa inyo! basta, sa aking parte, yun ang nakapagbigay sa akin ng lakas ng loob upang aminin ang lahat sa kanya.

and so inamin ko.

at inamin din nya.

nagkaaminan na!!

pero wala pa rin, ganon pa rin kami. :D ahahahahaha!

isang gabi bago ako umuwi sa sta. rosa dahil tapos na ang aming summer, magkachat na naman kami. tinanong na niya ko kung gusto ko na bang ituloy kung anuman ang namamagitan na sa aming dalawa. ang sagot ko: i'll tell you my decision pag nagkita na tayo ulit. ang sunod naming pagkikita? dapat sana ay sa reg na.

pero hindi eh.

kasama ni abe at kathy, ang aming dalawa pang super friends, pinuntahan niya ako sa sta. rosa!! may 22, 2004. isang sabado. makalipas ang dalawang araw noong huli kaming nagchat.

at syempre, tinupad ko ang aking pangako. sinabi ko ang desisyon ko.

OO. :)

kaya't eto, may entry akong ganito: ANG KWENTO NI MAAN AT GERALD. bow.

P.S. nahulaan nyo ba ang title ko? hindi no? wahahahaha!! :D ayun o, in bold, capital letters. korny. but i love it!

i just have to say this

you know where i got my kakulitan? from my DAD. everytime he sends a message in ym may kasama pang buzz!!! grr!!! hehehehehe! :D at nagkukulitan na lang kami.

a fascination for words, et. al :)

hahaha! while i was reading ge's recent post, my curiosity was aroused by the term technosexual. i was wondering why exactly that sexual has to be its suffix?!? is it related to sexuality, the sexes or the sex organs? apparently it is. technosexual is a term applicaple to males. nyarf.

so there, while i was "googling" :) technosexual i stumbled upon a site about words! hehehe. my dorkiness kicks up again. this site,
The Word Spy should have sprung up on me way way before when i was still in korea. that was the time when i first got acquainted with the word ennui (ang nice no?) and i was obssessed in finding my other favorite words for a while. unfortunately, the hunt for "my other favorite words" was futile (i'm using futile kasi i like it but not enough to go into "my other favorite words") and it continues until now... now that i have all the time to do just that. :) so if you're feeling just as dorky as me, just click on the link.

----------

as scheduled, my mom and i went to the optha earlier this morning. my doctor was one cool guy, ya know, the type that makes me go "haaaay... gusto ko na talagang maging doctor" and makes me remember that going through the harshness of medical studies is like finding the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

anyway, he told me i had papillary conjunctivitis brought about by chronic use of contact lenses. i've been wearing them for what? 4 years now and i know that i haven't been a responsible wearer. read: i tend to leave them on when i doze to la la land. so when he checked my eyelids, he saw some bumps (inflammation). however, this is just normal for people who wear contact lenses. what's alarming is that i have LARGE bumps on my left eye. he told me not to wear contact lenses for three weeks and prescribed me some light steroid-based eyedrops. kaya nga i'll be living up to the imed title: dork, geek or whathaveyou. hahahaha. glasses plus braces? a dorkifying experience. *shiver* :) hahaha! but it's okay, a change of look nonetheless. hehehe! tapos i'll wear all those preppy outfits of mine pa no? hihihihihihi.


----------

i bought some nice jeans while we were waiting for my doctor. wala lang. f&h and kamiseta are my must-go to shops when i'm shopping for jeans and capris. they are hiyang for my size. :)

for tops? there's my best friend the tiangge. the ones at atc are the best, and i guess sa shopesville din. i don't go there often kasi, too far from our house. so i make do with the ones at atc. for special occasions (like when i have money talaga) i go to kamiseta or bayo. the clothes in kamiseta are more of the frilly-girly style while those in bayo are kinda laidback, ya know, girl-nextdoor type. love the bayo tees!

why am i doing this? i love talking about clothes. :)

it's so funny actually. no matter what the store is, i buy what i like if i have the money. oo nga pala. hahaha!

the body shop. another one of my favorites! ...if i have money. but they're on sale right now. right? or tapos na?

and then there's the department store... :)

----------

i go to healthway in atc, and festival mall. kaya there's always one little side trip for me... erm, for us! shopping is contagious. my mom is my recent recruit in the i love shopping club. ;)

----------

but from now on, I'M SAVING UP. PERIOD.

i'm contemplating whether to go to the derma or have my hair relaxed.

watched chocolat. loved it! there's this certain kind of feeling i experience when i read or watch stories like that. something... magical. experienced it while reading like water for chocolate and blessed are the cheesemakers. while watching naman a walk in the clouds and how to make an american quilt. magic.

i get irritated easily nowadays. and no, i don't have my period.

pero mood swings lang naman.

see. tralalalala. i'm owkay na ulit.

wish upon a star

you know what i want to do? just get out of region 4. even sta. rosa. haaay. i'm gettin bored at home. nothing much to do here except the internet, watch a lot of pirated dvd's, will and grace on tv and read more books. boredom's killing me! i swear, by the end of the break my butt's going to be so lapaaaad from all that sitting. and my eyes are going to get even more labo than before.

was supposed to go to baguio actually. but nooooo... my parents didn't allow me to go. magastos, because i'm getting braces din. yeah. because of one lone friggin canine my teeth look kwadrado. nyaaar. but if i sum up all those things i've been buying for the past few days, i bet it would have been much cheaper if they allowed me to go to baguio. bought shirts, jogging pants, books and lots of pa-beauty stuff. nyahaha. i really want to go out!! will somebody get me out of here, pleeease? even if for a day?!

my mom went out and she has my cellphone with her. craaap. how could i have forgotten it in her bag? i have some friends pa naman coming over they may be texting me and i don't have my phone! bahala na.

i've been the official driver this morning. now i want a car!! i want a second hand one so hindi masyadong nakakahinayang if i crash it in a post or something. but i can feel in my bones that i'm goin to be one terrific driver. no kidding. :p

antok na ko... ZzzZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZZ

i forget

i'm so sad.. it's because of that friggin' movie, the notebook. yeah, ive read it but still... i wanna cry!! i mean my number one fear right now is that i'm going to have alzheimer's or dementia. boohoo. i'm such a sentimental person pa naman. i want to remember EVERYTHING as in ALL, LAHAT!! that has happened to me. most especially those little things that we tend to overlook.. but if it did not happen then that exact moment is altogether different, you know what i mean? things like the exact message prof yao texted me when i passed the chem finals, when we were asked to wear kids' party hats on my birthday, the time when our whole sweaty huffy-puffy toxic supra tired block (as in the 20 of us) made siksik at the dorm to study the cat and henry was telling me that i remind him of his mom and yeah, the sound of a printer crashing to the floor ;). now how am i gonna capture all that?! much as i don't want to, i keep forgetting things always. see? i'm going to have alzheimer's. i'm sure. maybe i should go into neuro and stop those brain cells from deteriorating (if that's what's happening..).
