The Crapasutra

WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?.. That is the question.

2010-01-10T17:10:00.000-08:00

KINDERGARTEN TEACHER: To get to the other side.

PLATO: For the greater good.

ARISTOTLE: It is the nature of chickens to cross roads.

ARISTOTLE2: To actualize its potential.

KARL MARX: It was a historical inevitability.

TIMOTHY LEARY: Because that's the only trip the establishment would let it take.

SADDAM HUSSEIN: This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.

SADDAM HUSSEIN2: It is the Mother of all Chickens.

JOSEPH STALIN: I don't care. Catch it. I need its eggs to make my omelet.

DR. SEUSS: Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes the chicken crossed the road, but why it cross it, I've not been told!

O.J.: It didn't. I was playing golf with it at the time.

JACK NICHOLSON: 'cause it f.....g wanted to. That's the f.....g reason.

RONALD REAGAN: I forget.

CAPTAIN JAMES T. KIRK: To boldly go where no chicken has gone before.

HIPPOCRATES: Because of an excess of phlegm in its pancreas.

ARTHUR ANDERSEN CONSULTANT: Deregulation of the chicken's side of the road was threatening its dominant market position. The chicken wasfaced with significant challenges to create and develop the competencies required for the newly competitive market. Andersen Consulting, in a partnering relationship with the client, helped the chicken by rethinking its physical distribution strategy and implementation processes. Using the Poultry Integration Model (PIM), Andersen helped the chicken use its skills, methodologies, knowledge, capital and experiences to align the chicken's people, processes and technology in support of its overall strategy within a Program Management framework. Andersen Consulting convened a diverse cross-spectrum of road analysts and best chickens along with Anderson consultants with deep skills in the transportation industry to engage in a two-day itinerary of meetings in order to leverage their personal knowledge capital, both tacit and explicit, and to enable them to synergize with an enterprise-wide value framework across the continuum of poultry cross-median processes. The meeting was held in a park-like setting, enabling and creating an impactful environment which was strategically based, industry-focused, and built upon a consistent, clear, and unified market message and aligned with the chicken's mission, vision, and core values. This was conducive towards the creation of a total business integration solution. Andersen Consulting helped the chicken change to become more successful.

LOUIS FARRAKHAN: The road, you see, represents the black man. The chicken 'crossed' the black man in order to trample him and keep him down.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.: I envision a world where all chickens will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question.

MOSES: And God came down from the Heavens, and He said unto the chicken,"Thou shalt cross the road." And the chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing.

CARL JUNG: The confluence of events in the cultural gestalt necessitated that individual chickens cross roads at this historical juncture, and, therefore, synchronicitously brought such occurrences into being.

JOHN LOCKE: Because he was exercising his natural right to liberty.

ALBERT CAMUS: It doesn't matter; the chicken's actions have no meaning except to him.

THE BIBLE: And God came down from the heavens, and He said unto the chicken, "Thou shalt cross the road." And the Chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing.

FOX MULDER: It was a government conspiracy.

FOX MULDER2: You saw it cross the road with your own eyes. How many more chickens have to cross the road before you believe it?

RICHARD M. NIXON: The chicken did not cross the road. I repeat, the chicken did NOT cross the road.

MACHIAVELLI: The point is that the chicken crossed the road. Who cares why? The end of crossing the road justifies whatever motive there was.

JERRY SEINFELD: Why does anyone cross a road? I mean, why doesn't anyone ever think to ask, What the heck was this chicken doing walking around all over the place, anyway?

FREUD: The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity.

PAT BUCHANAN: To steal a job from a decent, hard-working American.

THOMAS DE TORQUEMADA: Give me ten minutes with the chicken and I'll find out.

BILL GATES: I have just released the new Chicken Office 2000, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your checkbook.

OLIVER STONE: The question is not, "Why did the chicken cross the road?" Rather, it is, "Who was crossing the road at the same time, whom we overlooked in our haste to observe the chicken crossing?"

DARWIN: Chickens, over great periods of time, have been naturally selected in such a way that they are now genetically disposed to cross roads.

DARWIN 2: It was the logical next step after coming down from the trees.

THE POPE: That is only for God to know.

M.C.ESCHER: That depends on which plane of reality the chicken was on at the time.

GEORGE ORWELL: Because the government had fooled him into thinking that he was crossing the road of his own free will, when he was really only serving their interests.

IMMANUEL KANT: The chicken, being an autonomous being, chose to cross the road of his own free will.

GRANDPA: In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Someone told us that the chicken had crossed the road, and that was good enough for us.

DIRK GENTLY (Holistic Detective): I'm not exactly sure why, but right now I've got a horse in my bathroom.

NIETZSCHE: Because if you gaze too long across the Road, the Road gazes also across you.

B.F. SKINNER: Because the external influences, which had pervaded its sensorium from birth, had caused it to develop in such a fashion that it would tend to cross roads, even while believing these actions to be of its own freewill.

JEAN-PAUL SARTRE: In order to act in good faith and be true to itself, the chicken found it necessary to cross the road.

ALBERT EINSTEIN: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road crossed the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.

ALBERT EINSTEIN2: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road moved beneath the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.

PYRRHO THE SKEPTIC: What road?

THE SPHINX: You tell me.

BUDDHA: Asking this question denies your own chicken nature.

RALPH WALDO EMERSON: The chicken did not cross the road ....it transcended it.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY: To die. In the rain.

COLONEL SANDERS: I missed one?

Kayo?? Why the chicken crossed the road??

END OF THE WORLD.. Kuno.

Good day, sexy people!!

after countless months of being blogless.. I finally have something to blog about. (GAWD. I miss blogging.)

uhmmm, honestly, I got tired of blogging because there are so many things to blog about.. So many special things that happened in a short span of time..

Well, this blog post is about our family dinner bonding time stuff.. (trivia, OUR ULAM is pritong tilapia.)

we just watched KNOWING starring Nicholas Cage, and it talks about the End of the WORLD of something like that. in the movie, there's this solar flare that will engulf the Earth and destroy our atmosphere, locking us within a poisonous cloud of gas..

So, over dinner, my mom, my 2 brothers and I were arguing what is the most possible way the world can end..

my mom said that..

Maybe there's a very huge meteor that will hit the Earth... that is, apparently LARGER than the EARTH.

to this thought, I argued:

Ma, Hindi naman pwedeng makahila ng mas malaki sa size ng Earth ang gravity ng Earth eh!

then my bro said..

hindi, ate, baka ang sinasabi ni mama, yung Sun ang makakahila ng meteor, tapos nagkataong nasa direksyon ng meteor yung EARTH! tapos sasalpok!

then I argued again..

hala! posible ba yun? siguro, pwedeng magmeet, pero hindi naman siguro malakas yung impact nun kasi parehas lang yung acceleration ng gravity ng Sun sa kahit na anong heavenly body, kahit na ano pa yung mass nya.. End of the world na ba agad yun??

then my 2nd brother said..

tama na nga yung meteor! eh yung sa great flood, O, diba end of the world din yun?

I argued (again).

hala! sino nagsabi na matatapos yung mundo ng ganun-ganun na lang..? nagsi-circulate lang naman yung water content ng Earth eh.. So kung baha yung isang part, tuyo naman somewhere else! hindi naman pwedeng maging all-water yung mundo no!

.. Soon, we were arguing again about how God can make things possible.. and my mom even scolded me because I have this freaky idea that God is still having fun playing with us so He won't just end the world like that. (bad.)

But, in the end. we all settled. because one roll of BRAZO de MERCEDES was laid on our dinner table.

END OF DISCUSSION. hahahaha!

Divine Intervention?! (UP vs. Ateneo)

2009-07-26T08:12:00.000-07:00

Gosh. Is this true? (If you can't see this clearly, ADMU: 58.. UP: fuckin' 68)
The low-profile, ever defeated UP Fighting Maroons DEFEATED the ATENEO BLUE EAGLES (ehem. Champions?), Sunday, July 27, 2009 on a very rainy sunset in PhilSports Arena (Ultra), Pasig City.

And, of course, I was one of the stunned children of God that witnessed this very very unexpected game.
Now, I can say.. Nothing is damn impossible.

That was a rainy afternoon. Angelo, a very special friend of mine, treated me with a lower box ticket to the game.. He was pissed off when I got there late. (ehem, almost an hour.)
So we entered the arena, 3pm-ish. and seated there with some Ateneans. It was Adamson Soaring Falcons vs. DLSU Green Archers.
The game was pretty close. It's so intense, there's a five minute overtime.. But DLSU grabbed their victory.

What made me more nervous was when I realized how notorious the Ateneo crowd can be. I mean, they were like "hoy! adamson! wag nyo panalunin yung mga BOBO!".. And they were cheering for any opponent DLSU has.. They also insult the crowd, telling that the "green" crowd was heartless. "parang nilulumot" in some way. hahaha! Cool people.

Before the UP vs. Ateneo game started, Angelo and I found some seats on the Ateneo side. Of course, I would still go with him even if I'm cheering for UP.

But then, I think I got the best seat in the house.. because I was in the middle of the cracked crowd of Ateneo. Across the arena, there was the FORTUNATE FEW UP Maroons. I think only 20 UP students were seating on the lowerbox level. Almost all of the UP crowd was seated in the Gallery Area (general admissions). I guess only 80 students attended that game. (minus the pep squad)

Throughout the game, everyone was looking at the scoreboard, thinking "is this fuckin' possible?!" During the first half, the Ateneans were obviously confident that they would win.. The score was still close, and the Blue Eagles was able to keep UP's advantage short by scoring every after a Maroon goal.

OK, Half time break. Ateneo performed. (haha.)
Then the UP Cheering squad performed. Even without pompoms, they nailed it. I mean, REALLY NAILED IT. That was the best routine I've seen live. (yet.)
you should just check that out on YouTube. It's beyond words.

2nd half. The tension is really building up our side (Ateneo side).. The big guys in front of me were kept silent as I scream my voicebox out whenever UP steals and shoots a basket. (hmmm. So you can guess how painful it is for me to shout everytime they score.)

Angelo was cheering his heart out for his team, of course.. And, because I was on the Ateneo side, I hear their cheers and drums louder.. Gosh, you can't imagine how jumpy my heart is whenever they bang their drums. =P

Hmmm, but hey, it was fun, because my voice seemed louder when I cheer for UP when I'm seating on the Ateneo side.

CRAP. they rain threes.. they shoot. I mean, this is my first ever live game.. but, I can't believe this.. I heard from all people how the UP Maroons suck. I mean, the whole nation says UP Maroons suck at UAAP Basketball. Now, what kind of "sucking" is this?!

The last minute. I noticed almost all Ateneans were holding their cellphones. and they're somewhat silent.. I guess they were texting their friends about the game. No one will believe it. But hell, who cares about how many will believe. It happened. Hands Down.

Hey, Angelo was pretty nervous. He cannot believe it. I think I really pissed him off (and his blue-shirted schoolmates) because I kept on cheering for UP. I was jumping and screaming all over the place. (poise? bye-bye.)

OK, so, finally, the game ended..

hmmmm.. It's morning already.. I think I'll let the world speak about this unbelievable crap.

As for me, I'm tired. I'm sleepy. My voice cracked. My legs hurt. My eyes droopy..
MY HEART FULFILLED.

2009-07-23T06:02:00.000-07:00

It's been soooo long since I posted a blog.. It's not because I'm busy or anything, hehe, I don't consider myself busy because I'm still wanting more. (what?)

Anyway, This is supposed to be a random post. So..

I'm known as "The sexy dancer" in our Freshie batch. It creeps me out because some people just greet me and say, "hey, you're the sexy dancer right?" along the corridors of Palma Hall. Crap.
Why? Mainly because of Daniel Frago. He kinda forced me to dance during our Freshman Orientation.. (which I won.)
I love my Philo11-Logic class. Hehehe! It's the hardest thing I have ever known in my life. I mean, the class is great! Our professor, Mr. de Villa, is very funny.. especially when he curses "yung mga skul sa tabi-tabi".. (with respect to other schools)
He told us that studying LOGIC is important.. "Lalo na kapag pumunta kayo sa Starbucks dyan sa tabi-tabi, tapos may lumapit sayo na gwapong inglisero.. Itanong mo, IS THIS ARGUMENT VALID? If P results to A and Q..."
But then, the "legendary" long exam in Logic is making me nervous as the days pass. No one knows how to answer that stuff (except for my PhilSci alumni classmates).
Next to my Logic class is Badminton. And the really significant thing about it is that everytime I attend that class, it rains. I mean, it's raining effin' hard.
I joined the Volleyball team in Bacbacan 2009. Bacbacan is like a sportsfest initiated by the CBA council. I'm so excited! Hahaa! our first game is against the TERMINALS (5th year BAA students) Yikes! Well, respect the elderly! =)
Rodic's Tapsilog is one of the best meals I have taken.. I actually travel 6pesos a day just to get to UP shopping center and eat tapsilog. hahaha! If you're visiting UP, make sure you try it. =)
Hmmm.. Math 17..? not that hard. I still score some touchdowns there.. And besides, I'm super inspired in that class.. I have a crush on a guy named.. (gosh, I'm too shy to say his name here..).. My friends already know about it, and they say my crush looks like my ex-crush in CMSHS. (what?!).. Haha!
I'm still one week away from an ADB dance concert.. I'm practicing every Saturday, and.. guess what song was assigned to us..? JAI HO! Crap. I wish the costume is not that revealing or anything! Keep your fingers crossed!
My ADHD attacks again. I do crazy hiphop stunts at home. I don't know how to do it but I think my body really wants to release a very harmonic pleasure through hiphop. Weird.
UPCAT is coming, Good Luck, Seniors!

06-03-09.. KOIZORA.. sniff sniff

2009-06-02T23:38:00.000-07:00

Hey..! You're eyes are all dried up.. Have you stayed too long surfing online??
I have a solution for that..! Now you don't have to suffer bloodshot, dry and irritated eyes.. Watch this movie, KOIZORA.. Its about a girl named Mika who retells her story using her cellphone.. (OK, cellphone romance? I'm guilty.)

A real tearjerker. The protagonists are a bit plain, but that simplicity added the spice to the movie.. No exaggerations, this is plain pop drama.

Now I have to clean up my desk, there's a whole bunch of teary tissues around. See yah!

PINOY GAY BROTHER.. SEASON THREE

2009-05-28T21:03:00.000-07:00

WHERE: Eucalyptus Drive, Greenwoods Executive Village, Pasig City
HOW: Sakay kayo ng Jeep na Pasig Quiapo (Pasig Palengke) then, from Pasig Palengke, sakay kayo ng tricycle (Greenwoods, Phase 1H, Eucalyptus Drive) hahahahah!

Pasig Market Central Terminal.. Hahaha! Partida, wala pang pera yung isa dyan. =)

Gate!

Kumpleto na rin, sa wakas..!

Endorse-endorse lang po. ESP Design Associates

James. Oliver. Amiel. *toot*. Joshua.

Hahahaha! Anu, may connection ba..?

Himala, naka-upo pa silang lhat nyan..!

Medyo slow-paced ang overnight ngayon.. Known as the last (ever) Pinoy Gay Brother, it still cannot be compared to Season 1 and 2.
Before sunset, we watched the dreaded HOTSHOT and Boys over Flowers, as requested by Jellah.. Hahah!
Immediately, everyone took their places at the rooftop. Some battled it out to determine who should get the hammock. Hahaha! Then and there, some of us started music jamming, talking and playing cards.. (as usual, the unprecedented classroom scene of 4-Almeda)
After dinner, some of us started a game.. (magtatagalog muna ako aa.)

may ginawang kalokohan sina Amiel, Ferdyn at Diana nung gabi.. Anu daw ang tawag sa dating member ng Hale..? eh di EXHALE. (putakte. napaiyak pa sina Daniel at Oliver sa walang-kwentang joke na yun.)
then, we started another activity, the spin-the-bottle/tough10/openforum.. All of us participated.. (Yehey!) at dahil first time ni RC na makasali sa overnight, sya nagtanong ng halos lahat ng questions.. May mga rebelasyon, pero madalas, light questions lang.. Hindi naman ganun kabibigat yung mga stuff, kasi wala naman talagang issue sa Almeda.. More on future plans and impressions na lang..

(habang nag-oopen forum, adik-adik naman si John sa JamLegend.. JOHN LEGEND..?)

We planned to watch a horror movie.. Pero dahil sa hindi naman masyadong malamig, tska inaantok yung iba, pumunta na lang kaming mga "high" sa court at naglaro ng basketball.. Most Valuable Player si Mariel.. So super galing nya, na-reset yung score ng team nya (with Jellah and Ferdyn) dahil na-shoot nya yung shot na hindi naman dapat i-shoot. (Bwahahahah!)

Init na init na sila.. Hndi na mapakali yung iba na magswimming.. And tinatamad pa yung karamihan, so kelangan na ng drama-stuff para makumbinsi lahat.. In the end, these people headed to the final stage.. =)

After 12 hours, umalis na yung iba.. Etong mga ito, gusto pang magswimming..=D

Gangster style!

As usual, kapag maaraw, sa lilim lang naka-upo. hahaha! in fairness, naubos yung sunblock ko.

Pa cute!

Speaking of pa-cute, may nangyaring hindi inaasahang pagpapacute sa swimming na ito.. Muntikan nang malunod si Daniel Frago (SG President 08-09).. Parang ewan talaga, lumalangoy kasi sa pinakamalalim na part.. Naka-goggles pa!

Sigaw pa nya: FERDYN! *blob bloB* NALULUNOD AKO..!!! *blog inhale* AAAAAH! SERYOSO TO! *blob* FERDYN! *blob* SERYOSO TO!! PINULIKAT AKO!!!! *blob*

Si Ferdyn naman, dahil pinupulikat pa rin, hindi alam ang gagawin.. parang inaantok na nalibot pa nya yung pool, hindi alam kung saang part sya tatalon.. Pero, after 35 years, nasagip naman nya si Daniel..
TULOY ANG SWIMMING!

Sa lilim lang ulet!

HOLD YOUR BREATH..!

Sa lahat ng mga nag-greet sa akin, at sa lahat ng mga nag-acknowledge sa PINOY GAY BROTHER SEASON 3.. Maraming salamat po.

Humayo kayo at magparami.

2009-04-26T06:33:00.000-07:00

Hello, dear readers!!!

I just came by to post something and update you with the latest happenings in my life.. Obviously, because of this creepy crap, I can't blog my heart out anymore.. I've been super busy, and my relax hours are spent with my family..

Anyway, I hope you will still check out my future blog posts.. I promise I will blog about serious stuff next time.
And, if you want, you can suggest a topic for my next blog post about the following..=)

I'm currently studying Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 in Informatics Megamall. So, I spend my Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in Megamall. (Officially, a MALL RAT.)
I'm semi-addicted to jamlegend.com.. It's an online Guitar Hero site.. It has super cool songs (Home Run by The Stolen Cars), and Canon Rock stimulates the soul! hahahhahah! My hands are numb.. You guys just have to check it out. Here's the link.. http://www.jamlegend.com/refer/li/261170
Basketball's the hot thing for me on TV right now.. And its the perfect time to be a hardcore basketball fan because NBA has Playoffs and PBA has the Fiesta Conference and All-Star week.
Harlem Globetrotters, an exhibition basketball team, will be coming to the Philippines. Its about time that Filipino fans notice them. They are super amazing..! You won't believe their stunts.. It's just real..
Speaking of Basketball + Reality, HotShot, the super mediocre asianovela/whadyamacallit, is the worst thing ever shown on Philippine television.. Hmmm.. not really. But, please get the point.. Super stunts? special effects? My friends actually compare it with the anime Slam Dunk.. But, HELL NO! It is not anime.. So, please stick to reality, HotShot fans, because, apparently, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon stunts + Basketball + Cross-sighted Asians + Classic PowerRanger effects.. DO NOT MIX.
I have finished Blackwood Farm, one of the late books of the Vampire Chronicles.. I'm not that satisfied.. because I got hooked with Vampire Chronicles because of the "misadventures" of the Vampire Lestat.. And, the late books focuses more on the Mayfair Witches..
I attend dance lessons in my mom's office (Asian Dev't Bank).. Its called Dance Fusion.. A mix of Hiphop, Jazz, Pop and hardcore Aerobics.. Our theme (so far..) is Pokerface by Lady Gaga. (sooo cool!).. Its the first time that I will dance something that has no recurrent steps.. I mean, none at all!
To make sure my intellect is not drifting away this summer, I read The Da Vinci Method.. Its a book about super cool scientific and creative stuff.. I mean, in a day, I learned about The Butterfly Effect, Alpha, Beta, Delta and Theta Brain Frequencies, The Schuman Resonance, etc.. It sounds all geeky, but, with interest and a dictionary (honestly, I didn't check the dictionary).. It can be considered "life-changing".. The book is somewhat similar to The Secret.. only added with scientific stuff. (so cool, it's ice cold!)
I'm super excited to attend UP!.. hahaha! Its like a whole different world.. I sense brilliance, attraction, adventure, reality and freedom.. (Hell, I just sense them, it doesn't mean i'm going to get them.. Especially freedom.. It's so impossible to get it, like winning the lottery.)
4aver, the unstoppable hot alumni from CMSHS (that includes me!), conducts a fundraising activity for our classmate/friend LoAnn Apostol and her sibling.. Her sibling has Biliary Atresia, a rare liver disease.. the operation requires 3-4 million pesos. I promised 4aver that I will find time to join their fundraising.. And I hope I deliver that soon.. *cross-fingers*
April 18.. Hmmmm.. that day changed my life.. =)

I just have to warn you, that my playlist contains 2,036 songs. Completely varied because I do not stick to one genre only.. (does this mean I appreciate brilliance regardless of its kind?)

2009-02-28T03:24:00.000-08:00

I was dumbfounded when I checked my blog, and for a short time, I had almost 50 views in just one day..

Which is really weird because I only have that blog boost when I blog hop and link my blog to more blogs..
But, since its our ending week in school, I can't blog hop more often..

So, to fill spaces in blog updates, I post and link some of my favorite youtube videos.. One that i really like is the Japanese Prank Massage Chair. (check previous post.)

Because of overwhelming text demands, and the sudden boost of my Crapasutra views, I would like to add some more videos..

here is one I would like to try especially with 4-Almeda.. Hahahah!

And to all of you who's interested, you can listen to his show, Morning Rush with Chico and Delamar in RX 93.1..

have fun!

Hey hey hey!!

It feels like withdrawal already when I wake up in the morning.. I've been in the "call center" mode for almost 2 weeks and I feel like its getting its toll on my health already..

OK, But that is not the main issue here..

For your absolutely insignificant information, We have just finished our periodical exams earlier and we felt like CRAP.

yeah, total CRAP.
Especially when we're forced to answer these creepy stuff that reviewing for a year will never ever solve.

Here is what we have prayed for to the Lord:

The University of the Philippines Madrigal Singers (UPMS), also known as the Philippine Madrigal Singers or simply Madz, is one of the major cultural groups based in the University of the Philippines, Diliman. Its current conductor and musical director is Mark Anthony Carpio. They are the first choir to win the European Grand Prix for Choral Singing twice (in 1997 and in 2007).[1]

The Philippine Madrigal Singers was organized as the University of the Philippines Madrigal Singers in 1963 by Prof. Andrea Veneracion, proclaimed National Artist for Music in 1999. The group is composed of students, faculty and alumni from the different colleges of the University of the Philippines. Its present choirmaster since 2001 is Mark Anthony Carpio.

The group performs a variety of styles and forms but specializes in the madrigal, a polyphonic and challenging musical style popular during the Renaissance where singers and guests would gather around the table during a banquet to sight-sing and make music together. This served as the inspiration for their unique style of singing - singing seated in a semi-circle without a conductor.

Hell just broke loose.

Anyway, I hope this serves as a reminder for those of us who do not know a goddamn thing about the Madrigal Singers. You better memorize and live this stuff. It will surely save you from a devastating blow to the soul.

P.S.
I hope authorities would consider the bleakness of my conscience as I write this blog.

Hey guys! YOu just have to watch this stuff..!

I mean, I got the hang of it when we still have jack TV.. You can watch it in Banzai.. banzai is a very weird "betting" show in Japan where people bet money over crazy stuff.. There's turtle racing, blood sampling, chasing boulders and other really weird stuff.. The most unforgettable stint for me is when they featured a cockroach in a microwave oven.. people would bet how long until the cockroach pops like a popcorn..

SOOOOPER CREEEEEPY.
Now, to see how crazy Japan can be, watch this stuff!

Hahahahahhah!!! Really funny!

01-08-09 (someone stole something)

2009-02-14T01:23:00.000-08:00

Hey hey hey!

This really crappy thing happened just a week after the opening of 2009.

Loann and Erika, 2 of the most beautiful women in the universe, got their wallets stolen by a very weird person.

We just came from the Computer Lab when Erika said "anu ba yan, bakit nakabukas bag ko?!" She searched for her purse, but it's gone.

Loann, on the other side of the room, was quivering and crying silently when she found out her wallet was stolen too.

Daniel, the very famous and powerful lovey-dove of Erika, used his superpowers and summoned his Justice League to search for the wallets..

Soon, John, the funniest and sexiest member of the Justice League, found the wallets inside the crappy water reservoir of a toilet in the Men's CR.

EEEEEWWWWWW... Its a good thing no one used the toilet yet.. is it possible that if a guy flushed the toilet, he would see a wallet floating with his crap..? he would shout out, "woah! I'm crapping money!"

After that, the Justice League said they would search for something in our bags, and because their x-ray vision was not working, they searched for it, the traditional style..

Unfortunately, the contents of the wallets were never recovered.

Its a blessing in disguise.. because our class in Economics was canceled.

NOW Playing:
Love story - Taylor Swift
Don't let me get me - Pink (labet!)
Heartbreaker - Mariah Carey (the video is super cool.)

Just check out this video.. Came across it when I was searching for videos for our Physics project..=)

And here's another one..

01-15-09 (Quote-Quote-an)

2009-01-15T05:18:00.000-08:00

Let's talk Voltaire!!
Here's some of his most moving quotes.. Just proves that you don't need to write countless words, paragraphs and even EQUATIONS to inspire the world..

Man is Free at the instant he wants to be.
The ancient Romans built their greatest masterpieces of architecture for wild beasts to fight in.
Who serves his country well has no need of ancestors.
It is better to risk sparing a guilty person than to condemn an innocent one.
To hold a pen is to be at war.
It is one of the superstitions of the human mind to have imagined that virginity could be a virtue.
We all look for happiness, but without knowing where to find it: like drunkards who look for their house, knowing dimly that they have one.
It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong.
Opinions have caused more ills than the plague or earthquakes on this little globe of ours.

2008, bye-bye.

2009-01-07T06:46:00.000-08:00

Welcum Welcum!
This is my Year-Ender Special.. A blog entry that will sum up my 2008 and raise my 2009..!

Well, my Year is all about school and some spattering of Family Business.

And every memorable thing that happened in school turned out to happen in the 2nd half of the year 2008.

Of course, We're in 4th year now, so it's expected that we have this group presentations, interpretative dances, last-minute presentations for a school visitor and elections for subjects..
And hey, another thing, you will read a lot of "Because we're 4-Almeda"
Speaking of subjects, Our TLE/Business Management class is the only forgettable thing here. (it's a miracle that I remembered it now)

One great opening for this school year is my participation in the Guinness Book of World record attempt. Its fun! Its just a shame that most of 4a-vers' were still killjoys..=)
http://crapasutra.blogspot.com/2008/06/06-28-08-guiness-book-of-world-records.html

Then, one forgettable attempt of the SSG to raise funds is the Battle of the Cups (I just coined this term because apparently, no one knows the name of this so-called project). It is a contest between cleaners. Well, BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we just stacked those icky and slimy cups until all toxic chemicals mix together and form a gigantic structure of crap. The smell of iced tea, milo, apple, pineapple, grape juice, saging con yelo, melon and gulaman mixed together is truly "breath-taking".

Interpretative dance. Its just a simple group presentation but BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we spent our nights practicing for it. And to think that its only a group presentation, not a project or some sort. We bought paint, collected trash for costumes, and rehearsed A LOT. You can see some pics here. http://crapasutra.blogspot.com/2008/08/one-rainy-afternoon.html
http://crapasutra.blogspot.com/2008/06/06-28-08-guiness-book-of-world-records.html
Even now, I can still feel the moist air around when we were performing.. Great times.

Next is the NBA Playoffs. Hhahahahah! Since I had eyes, I have been a fan of Boston Celtics. I've been a fan even with Boston games with Larry Bird and Bill Russell still playing. I served under the Boston Dynasty, and it deserved a celebration when the Celtics went back to business with Garnett, Allen and Pierce. Another thing is that I pure, straight hate Kobe Bryant. It's unanimously decided. BOSTON CELTICS RULE!

Next is the much-awaited UPCAT.. This will dictate our future. Most of us were just excited to take this exam. I mean, we suffered for 4 years to get great education, and the UPCAT is one of the things that will pave our way to our ambitious dreams. We had reviews, from outside and inside the school, we did our drills.. then there. Although it is a bit exaggerated, BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we took it seriously, unlike the other sections in 4th year. Other thing about the upcat is our courses. We spent countless hours deciding what course to fill in those 4 blanks in our application form. If you check my classmates' blogs, you can tell that it is a life-changing experience. REALLY.

Then, there is the Filipino month, and we're supposed to make this Mayon Volcano replica in our room. BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we decided to make it as realistic as possible. we did this skeleton thing in Amang Park, did some "how-low-can-you-go?" and had fun.. We had the most visited room during the festival even if we don't have food to offer. It's a great experience.
http://crapasutra.blogspot.com/2008/08/08-28-08-amang-geddon.html
http://crapasutra.blogspot.com/2008/09/09-11-08-one-explosive-day.html

Next, the Mr and Ms Mandsci.. You know, BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we felt really tired to take this thing seriously (even though Daniel, our classmate, is the SSG President). So, we just gave our outmost support to Arianne Balaoing of 4-Belardo (LABYOU ARIANNE!)

Next is the Musical Play in Mapeh. Hahahahah! It was one of the normal bonding moments we did to remove the pressure of group wars. It is a class project so we have to be united (?). BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we created a storyline to fit for our most "artistahin" classmates, used our musical talents to perform the songs live. Well, its not the presentation that mattered to me but our practices..
http://crapasutra.blogspot.com/2008/09/myooseekaal-play.html

One is the unforgettable BULLYING of "well-selected" students from 4-Almeda.
2 missing notebooks, 1 helpless victim, countless eyes looking at a single person.
This happened because of the so-called GROUP wars in Almeda. When I look back, I mean, what the hell are we thinking?! There came a trial, there's a plaintiff, there's a defense, but then, everyone can judge. Because of this incident, the previous mistakes were uncovered, and hell just broke loose. Everything's so messed up.. The issue dated back from God knows when.. We had numerous open forums that remained closed. But I dont know, maybe its too outdated and I don't want to remember it anymore. (do you?)

One event that raged not only our class but also the whole student scene is the Championship Game between Ateneo Blue Eagles and La Salle Green Archers.. In this battle, the Eagles won over the Archers.. (maybe Archers should use more advanced weapons like M-16 or a Sniper gun instead of bow and arrows..) go, Chris Tiu!!!!!!

Another special event this year is the DSSPS and RSSPC.. that is because I represented the school in a competition.. And, I was able to meet new friends and explore new places.. I am not all Journalism. But after that experience (with my fellow 4-J), I believe I discovered another exciting path to take.. Go 4-J..!

Next is the DYARYO-BOTE NAMAN DYAN thingy. What the heck. I mean, isn't our life crappy enough?! This dyaryo-bote thing is a project of the Graduation Committee to raise funds for our Graduation Activities. Everything went smoothly during these days of crap-sniffing until our Economics teacher decided to grade the tincans we will bring. Of course, those who value their effort, time and money reacted violently and insisted a boycott. But then, BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, the boycott was nothing. More than half of the class bought tincans from junk shops to sell them again (what a galactically stupid thing to do for a CMSHS student)

So, again, some people cried, some people stood in front and scolded somebody, some people felt guilty. So that week, we didn't participate on the canvassing.
The class leaders planned to make a comeback for next week. BECAUSE WE'RE 4-ALMEDA, we grabbed our stuff and lurked the streets of Mandaluyong and Makati in two nights. We went door-to-door and... voila! we collected junk! Wow. This is another galactically stupid thing to do for a CMSHS student. but then, Its fun!! There's this house that gave us a collection of the greatest western books ever written, and they're hardboud too! Wow! I'm like, "this is not trash, I tell you. These books are PRICELESS".. Unfortunately, those few voices that pleaded were unheard because of the commotion. *sighs* When I write about this experience, I remember my sorrows. And yes, I would love to do it again. The smell of rotten newspapers, the feel of pain inside our broken backs and limbs, the sight of sweat on our classmates' neck; all complemented the raging raindrops and flood that added ecstacy to the adventure.
That didn't end there. The canvassing lasted until midnight. All out party.
Then, as expected, the going got tougher when we still had to group those junk and get the copper from the wires we "borrowed". This time, the photos just have to speak for itself.

Next is the DR Comics, I know this concerns a few.. but hell, I'm so unfortunate that it concerns me! I really hate making a comic strip.. Because I have to draw many scenes.. I draw like a pig already! Why push me to do hundreds of frames!!?? Another thing about this comical comic thing is that the topic is Greek Mythology.. I mean, I almost fell in love with Mam Tirones when she told us that Greek Mythology is the topic for the 3rd quarter.. I just love Greek Mythology..! But then, boom! Comics daw.. WAAAAAA! Hell just broke loose. Hell, Erebus, Tartarus, kung ano mang impyerno, nagloloko na talaga!

Then, the Concert.. You'll just have to read it..

Dante's Inferno Test (grabbed from oushiro)

2009-01-02T08:29:00.000-08:00

The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Fifth Level of Hell!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:

Level	Score
Purgatory (Repenting Believers)	High
Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers)	Very Low
Level 2 (Lustful)	Moderate
Level 3 (Gluttonous)	Moderate
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious)	Low
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy)	High
Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics)	Very Low
Level 7 (Violent)	Moderate
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers)	High
Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous)	Low

Take the Dante's Inferno Test

The river Styx runs through this level of Hell, and in it are punished the wrathful and the gloomy. The former are forever lashing out at each other in anger, furious and naked, tearing each other piecemeal with their teeth. The latter are gurgling in the black mud, slothful and sullen, withdrawn from the world. Their lamentations bubble to the surface as they try to repeat a doleful hymn, though with unbroken words they cannot say it. Because you lived a cruel, vindictive and hateful life, you meet your fate in the Styx.

2009-01-01T08:41:00.000-08:00

Overnight.. hay.. Nothing is better to be the close of 2008.. BONDING TIME..!!
Meeting place.. Syempre, sa McDo, ang meeting place ng Mandsci.. 5pm sharp. (daw..) hinintay pa namin si John.. Sabi pa ni Bryan, kasama daw si Marc.. Pero, dahil hindi naman sya madalas ma-late, naisip namin na baka tulog, nagpapatangkad.. Kaya yun.. iniwan na.

eto ang mga sumama.
Jacob
Aura
Bryan
Daniel
Paolo
Ced
Melo
Annlo
Tasha
Loann
Cheska
Anna
Diana
Mikhail
John
Arlene
Ferdyn
Joyce*
Mam Doan*

Nung makita ko na marami-rami pala yung sasama, kinilabutan na ako.. Kasya ba sa Starex ito..? Trivia lang.. 18 yung pasahero.. Bwahahahha! You can't imagine how crowded we were in there... dumating kami, 7pm..

Ayun.. may nagpartycrash pa, si mam Doan.. Nakwento ko kasi sa kanya na may overnight samin through text.. hala, sumama na! buti na lang, hindi sya nakisabay sa Starex.. Pipit na kami sigurado!!

So, they arrived at my house.. hindi naman dapat mabibigla kasi pinakita ko na yung picture ng bahay namin and marami na rin yung nakapunta dun nung bday ko.. pero, may nawindang pa rin.. yung mga tipong, "wow, Angel!! Mansion nga!!" o di kaya "gosh, ang laki!"

So, yan, kumain..dumating si Joyce, buti na lang nakahabol sya. (its better late than never!)
Naglaro din kami sa court/playground ng gabi.. Sayang talaga yung volleyball court kung may bola lang kami..

Bumalik kami, mga bandang 8:30pm na yun.. So pinapili ko na sila kung saan sila matutulog.. bedroom, sala or rooftop. They chose ROOFTOP.

eh, pano ba yan? super lamig pa naman nun!! Gabi, umaambon tapos winter season pa!
Anyway, nais nilang uminit man lang ang kanilang mga nanginginig na katawan.. So, naglabas na ng mga baraha!!!!
4 yata yung nagdala ng baraha nun.. hehe!

bored pa rin.. so bumaba yung iba sa sala at nanood ng Pretty Woman starring Richard Gere at Julia Roberts. (todo kilig si Aura eh!)

Well, there's

=spin the bottle. (so funny na pinapagalitan na kami ng nanay ko kasi nagtitilian kami kahit 2am na ng madaling-araw.. sa sobrang ingay, rinig na ng buong greenwoods yung crush nina.. *toot* na si *toot*..)

=secret game (hahahah!)

=ghost stories
sa simula, 4 na tao lng yung nagkukuwentuhan.. tapos nagka-asaran na may mumo.. sabi ni Cheska, "oo nga eh, marami na akong nararamdaman" ayun, nagkwentuhan na.. si Ced, malupit yung kwento nya.. nawindang na yung iba.. grabe, hindi ako makapaniwala na magkukuwento ako sa kanila.. nanginginig na ako sa takot at lamig.. niyayakap na ako nina Dan at Jacob nun kasi nanginginig na ako.. sabi pa nila, itigil ko na raw kasi baka may masamang mangyari... pero tinuloy pa rin namin.. dahil sa takot, bumaba kami sa sala galing sa rooftop.. pero, nakwento ko na nga.. ayaw ko na ituloy pero namimilit pa rin sila..) nagpray kami nun after that..

sayang din, umuwi si Tasha. sinundo sya ng parents nya..(2am) Pero bumalik din siya ng mga 7am!

=chat-chat with lovelife (binuksan ko yung wi-fi tska laptop.. ayun, nagfriendster na yung iba at nakipagchat pa kay AJA!)

=syempre, mawawala ba yung mga usapan tungkol sa mga teachers, classmates (na wala nung overnight, kaya sorry na lang), lovelife issues, manga/anime, books, graduation, college, courses, family

=grabe, makakapaniwala ka ba..? kahit kasama mga bebe na total advocates ng INUMAN, hindi nagkaroon ng inuman samin.. hehehe.. So, sa mga parents na nag-aalala noon, HINDI NAGKASALA ANG MGA ANAK NILA. pero may disadvantage din.. kasi inubos naman nila yung 3 kahon ng kape namin dito sa bahay. nakadalawang kulo rin ng tubig para sa kape na yan..

excited na rin, kaya naligo na yung iba, kahit malamig.. so habang nagkukuwentuhan, may nagsisipilyo sa tabi namin, nakikinig..

Ayun.. walang tulugan pa rin.. yung iba, bumigay na. himbing na himbing yung tulog nina Aura, Cheska, Diana, Mikhail, Ferdyn, etc.. nabasa yung unan ko ng laway. ewan ko kung kanino yun pero, tsk.. malala na talaga.

So, natulog na nga yung iba.. nagising na sila, mga 7am na.. Ayun.. doon naglabasan ang mga bathing suit at trunks ng mga tao.. gusto daw magswimming! hala! eh ang lamig-lamig nga eh!! and to think na hindi ko naman sinabi na mags-swimming.. kusa talagang nagdala!! so nag-arkila kami ng pool at naglakad papunta dun.. (mahaba-habang lakaran ito.. kawawa nga yung iba eh. excited sana, naka-handa pa yung twalya.. pinaglakad ko sila ng 6 na kalsada.)

wala na nga pala si Aura nun kasi may something with her dad.. so she went home early.. mga 9am..

sa Resort, tanggal na kagad ng damit, wala ng sunblock-sunblock! nag-dive na kagad sa pool.. BIG MISTAKE, kasi mas malamig pa yung pool kesa sa rooftop namin ng madaling araw.. parang mga basang sisiw na nanginginig na yung mga tao.. si Melo, todo-deny pa eh, "WOOOOO! grabe! hindi malamig!! ang init! nakakapaso!"

And, dumating ang merienda, BROAS.. (yun yung biscuit na nasa malaking lata..) nagduraan ng broas, nagpakain sa pato, nagkalat sa pool.. Grabe talaga!!!

Syempre, lunchtime, parang sa isang normal na outing, kumain kami ng lasang chlorine yung kamay.. Pero ok na rin kasi mainit-init yung kinain naming Meatballs with misua.. (yum!)

kahit tanghali na, hindi pa rin umahon yung iba!! nagpaka-Michael Phelps pa at nag-diving lessons!
habang nagpapa-itim yung iba, kaming mga sobra nang tinamaan ng lamig, tumigil na sa pagswimming.. pumunta na lang kami dun sa mini-zoo.. "kumain ka na?", sabi nung maya.. OW SHET! NAGSASALITA YUNG MAYA! namulot din kami ng mga nahulog na feathers ng mga ibon at ginawang remembrance/souvenir mahirap talagang kumuha ng balahibo kasi baho ng ipot yung kelangan mong tiisin..

at last, umahon na rin yung iba.. grabe yung itim nila! lalo na si Mikhail, talagang ebony-black na yung mga hita nya sa sobrang babad sa tubig eh! hahahahah! as usual, nagshower ng sabay-sabay.. naghakot ng mga basang damit at towel... then, balik-"mansion" na ulit..

pagdating sa bahay, biglang bagsak na kami sa sobrang pagod.. inubos na naman ang isa pang kahon ng kape at nag-merienda.. Yung iba, pumunta pa sa playground para magvolleyball.. yung iba (including ako), hindi na kinaya, nag-amplify na yung gravity pull samin sa kama..

So yun.. it turned 5pm.. uwian na.. nag-ayos na ng mga bag, damit, unan, kumot, baraha, gitara, sapatos... Hay.. as usual, mukha na namang sardinas yung mga yun sa sasakyan.. nagpunta pa ata yung iba kina Cheska nung pagkahatid sa kanila sa mcdo! (nabitin na ng todo)

Pagkakita ko sa mga iniwan nila, gosh, bahay ko pa ba ito..? parang refugee camp na sa sobrang gulo..
pero at least, I had fun.. grabe.. nag-enjoy talaga ako.. parang yung feeling, its once in a million years.. todo bonding, no open forums, no insults, no "parinigan".. just memories from one of the best things you can do with FRIENDSHIP.. its a thing no book can print or teach, no person can accurately retell, no other class can experience..

Yun nga lang.. yung mga kasama ko sa overnight.. I'm glad to have them.. I don't regret every single moment with them.. Wish ko lang na sana, yung mga tao na maituturing na closer to my heart, sana, pumunta.. well, new friends.. its worth the eyebags.

Just to add something, eto yung mga nakain namin:

Sinigang na baboy
Kanin
Ridges (bbq and cheese)
broas
pandesal
loaf bread
banana cue
fish crackers
kapeng mainit
e-aji dip snax
meatballs and misua
fried chicken
yun lang ata.. kung meron pang iba, hindi ko na matandaan.. baka kasi naubusan or hindi na ako nakakain sa sobrang bilis ng pag-ubos..

O, yan.. eto na yung mga pictures.. yung iba dito, galing kay Anna (friendster)

Oooopps! Hindi napigilan ni Anna na kuhanan yung unggoy sa zoo ng resort..

Anlayo ba ng kuha?

Ayan, mas malapit pa..

Meet Mr/Ms Partycrasher and Mr/Ms SSG President..

Vain!!

Deafening Silent Night. (gosh!)

2009-01-01T08:08:00.000-08:00

OKAY.. Now we have gone to a point of no return..
I'm supposed to blog about this thing since the day we started our practice.. (YEAH, I can't remember when that is, because apparently, I don't attend much.) But then we're soooo busy during practices.

So this crap we call CHRISTMAS CONCERT, is one of the fund-draining projects of the Graduation Committee for our school.. They did this because THEY LOVE US... and WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO AFFORD OUR GRADUATION ACTIVITIES. (ahahh..haha..)

First thing, we planned this concert in Cheska's house (I think).. when we were doing our headstands. We grouped them (us) according to body structure (huh?!) and ability.. There are ballerinas, angels, drummers and fairies..
For me, everyone's in their proper place.. except that its just weird that more guys are in the Angel group than Drummer group.

Then, our practices started. We had our practices in Rag's Studio with Kuya Molong. We had a hard time during these practices..Mainly because the air's to tight in the studio. I mean, 35+ students in one poorly ventilated room that is a lot smaller than our house's living room! I just can't believe this..! Another thing is the Alto-gether group.. we felt like crap during the practices because we can't just tune our voices with then stupid organ. Hehe! Plus, we were singing with our normal voices unlike the Sopranos who used their falsettos. You could ask the guys how hard it was to sing beyond one's vocal range.
What else..? Ahhh.. The keyboards.. and Kuya Molong's voice.. it's the perfect match. because of these two things, we can UNDERSTAND AND IMITATE the voices EFFORTLESSLY.

That didn't end there. We still had our practices in Brgy. Ilaya park later. WHAT?! The park is beside Pasig River.. And so... crap is still in the air.

One of the most exhilirating stuff about this concert is our costumes.. We went beyond city borders just to get them. And some have to come back to complete them. And, yeah, not the most pleasant experience, I might add.. Because I went home late (and haggard).. =D
Well.. DIVISORIA.. The word says more meanings than the dictionary.. I don't have the ability to talk about it here.. Maybe you should just go there (xmas season is a good time.) and experience DIVINE INTERVENTION.

Then came KUYA JED.. I felt cold when I heard his name.. I had a bad childhood experience with him when I was still in SFNPS.. But then, that's the past.. I actually prepared myself for more "experiences" with him.. especially with regards to my dancing abilities. (haha!) We did our practices for 4 days.. (and nights!).. That is a big progress for us at that time because we were practicing our songs for almost a month (not praise-worthy, in a way..) So we practiced in school, for a weekend, until 10pm.. wow!!!, some in the rooftop of Brgy. Old Zaniga (until 12am).. The practices were great.. Although it seemed unclear for some that I still had problems with Kuya Jed.. (hehe!) Did I sound complaining?! I just asked him if I could skip the practice for one day, besides, I have only one dance, unlike most of us who have 2.. When I attended the other day, I was shocked when my classmates told me about that "reklamo" thing.. (hahahahah!)

Dress rehearsals. We can't tell you how miraculous this thing is. We changed our clothes for a millisecond.. almost like a superhero. There's shouting, panicking and you can see flying candles and robes everywhere. Crappy stuff, but still, it deserves an AWESOME CHEER!..

At last... The CONCERT CAME..

But before than, lets see about the Conflicts and Controversies of the Concert. (wow! alliteration!)

First, there's this thing about the tickets.. I'm not really involved in this matter, mainly because I kept my mouth shut during the process. (we normally just open our mouths then we automatically involve ourselves.) And besides, I was always notified about the ticket sales because my mom is friends with the Graduation Committee.

Second, the Deduction of points for buying expensive costumes. Personally, I really don't like this idea. Is it my fault that I'm rich enough to buy nice costumes? Yeah.. And it's the choice (and capacity) of the person to spend their money.. And if they want to spend it to entertain the people at the concert, why stop 'em?

Third, the Conflict with our teachers.. Of course, it all started with a little more focus of sunlight on a very flammable object. This series of GALACTICALLY UNFORTUNATE EVENTS just piled up on us. One teacher was mad, then the next one.. then the next one.. we asked forgiveness for the first.. but then more teachers got mad.. Our records in their NOTORIOUS STUDENTS FILE CASE got digged.. we have no choice but to reconcile with them all. Don't get me wrong.. I am a straight A student and I have witnessed most of these conflicts with teachers.. But then I just realized that I single "UNGREETED GREETING" can already get you free sign up for being a disrespectful student. Well, this thing caused more effects than we have expected (we didn't really expect this thing to happen anyway.)
A broken xmas tree.
35 wet t-shirts
15 soaking wet handkerchiefs
tons of tissue paper wet with tears and nose drippings.
5 classes
a free pass for every student in Mandsci to see a telenovela in campus.
VIP pass for 4-D (not to mention, the winners of the concert) for seeing the most heartbreaking talk with Mam Tirones
lectures from several teachers
27 pesos for the roses
1 manila paper
air from our weak lungs
246,876 gallons of tears
10,299,484 gallons of nose drippings.
and an unforgettable experience.

Fourth, "PONTIUS PILATE" This doesn't concern me, of course, because I enjoyed the punishment of Pontius Pilate for us.. but it was not that sweet for others who are too jealous of our bonding time with Pontius Pilate.. (hehe!) anyway.. This thing really erupted the conflicts because the parents were definitely involved in the situation. And through this, we witnessed our defeat.. It's obvious how the other sections and the Graduation Committee ganged up on us.. They were taunting, teasing, stabbing us as we just sat together in the middle of the quad. What else can we do but to lower ourselves to their level? (still, tactless choice of words.) Ok.. Take twO! What else can we do but to reconcile with them?

OK.. Lets stop this horrible flashback.
CONCERT!!

the pressure is in the air. Of course, Section A is used to this kind of pressure because we've been getting it for 4 years already.. So there's this unreasonable policy about the other sections not watching the performances because it might ruin the stage production.. Because I'm that obstinate, I went and sneaked a peek on their performances..
One that really broke my heart is the piece of 4-C.. Their CD didn't work.. And its the shittiest thing to happen in a concert. Mr. Patron even joined his class and tried to lift their spirits up onstage.. Everyone knew they cried after their performance.. for 4-B.. One thing that I like in their presentation is Kaycee.. (haha!) I have a crush on her already! (not the lesbo type.. I might add!) Another is their costumes. They have this blinding gold robe and Christmas wreaths on their heads. soooo cool! As for their performance, it didn't give me that kind of kick that will make me burst my applause.. But the performance is great that it is an understatement if I say "I was entertained.".. 4-D..I didn't get to see their whole performance because we were pissing our tights and pants. But I could still hear the audience's incessant applause for their performance.. Well, their performance, without a doubt, deserves a prize..

4-A.. wow. Our performance was so messy and fast.. Everyone's in a hurry.. dresses got mixed up, candles burned, voices untuned, sweat dripped.. Well, it was all unforgettable.. in one dance, my guitar fell. (haha!) I just want to laugh at myself that time.. But then, what the heck. I enjoyed the whole thing! hehe..! OK, I am clearly not the only one who had a stomach-grinding experience onstage. Annlo, who's in front of me during choir pieces, forgot her tambourine in the first piece.. She even told us to snatch it to her during the song itself.. But, no sweat, its not that noticeable anyway.. next, the slip.. Someone in our area (left part of the stage), slipped while getting her costume.. I don't remember who it was because the lights were out.. But I heard the slip and it's just hilarious.. Another thing is with Arlene and Paolo.. If I am not mistaken, they accidentally exchanged their black robes in the second choir piece.. Paolo got a shorter robe and Arlene got a longer one.. The details I heard are vague because the witnesses were just laughing their bellies out while telling the story.. For me, the most amazing piece(s) in our performance were the candle-thing and the dance with the tambourine..
According to all people, our Waterloo is our Silent Night piece. I have to agree with them.. I mean... in the first place, what a nice choice of song.. Silent Night is the hardest song to learn even for professional singers.. We have no right to tell the judges now how that song silenced our pride for next days to come.. but for me, we should've dropped that song because it sucked.. Well, the group to blame there is ALTO.. I will not pour out my excuses here because I dropped my voice during the song when I realized my voice was clearly out of tune and will definitely worsen the whole song.. I was lip synch-ing (I don't know how to say this.) and peeking in only when I know what notes to burst.. Apparently, our performance bursted like a boob job. (nice metaphor.)

After our performance, there was 4-E.. Their mime thingy was breathtaking.. and their choir piece was very satisfactory.. But their dance? ummm.. Good but not enough.. I wish they gave their dances more energy.. I think I can tell some of them were already sleeping while dancing..

Upstairs, we removed our costumes.. One of the most annoying thing about mine is the glitters on my head.. These glitters stayed on me for almost 3 days even with hardcore bathing.. What a mess.

What else can I say..? well, I don't have to blog more of these anymore.. The experience was thrilling enough that its aftermath was definitely amazing..=)

4-Almeda's classroom decoration.

Bakla.. este BAKLAS BOYS. (Habulin ng mga bakla at washing machine.)

Sige pa, trash trash trash! (kanta ng Paramore)

Isa sa mga pinaghirapan kong baklasin. Ang hirap..! buti na lang, barako si Rose Anne..=)

Busy ang lahat. Kapag nahuli ka na hindi busy, katakut-takot na pagpaparinig ang aabutin mo, and.. sa harapan pa ng klase!

Apparently, wala na talagang klase.

Hindi naman sa ayaw naming papasukin ang mga teachers.. Hindi lang talaga sila makakapasok sa classroom namin..

Copper. Copper. Copper. (Chemistry?!)

THE CHERRY ON TOP?

heheheheh!

BAKLAS BOYS, boyband na sila. Binabaklas nila yung makina ng electric fan.. (Pano pa yung washing machine?!)

BALAT GIRLS. (Copper wire naman ang hobby ng mga ito.)

Pero, as usual, kahit amoy basura na kami, never kami magmumukhang basura! (ANNA & JOHN)

So..? Got CRAP..?

Haizz..
I'm just sorry I can't keep up with these days.. I mean, everything just happened without stopping.. I can't blog about it all..!

Anyway.. Maybe I'll just save it for my Year-Ender SPECIAL article..
YOU HAVE TO WAIT FOR THAT!

So here it goes, Christmas.

Well.. Sa totoo lang, malungkot ang pasko dito sa Grenwoods.. Dahil yan sa walang kwentang pagbabawal ng pangangaroling dito.
Sayang sana ang mga pamaskong naghihintay sa aming mga kapuspalad.

kaya, tahimik na tahimik dito lalo na kapag gabi..

Buti na lang, nagsipuntahan ang mga kaklase kong lumuhod sa mga magulang para payagan sa Overnight.
Nagtitilian pa rin kami noon kahit alas-dos ng madaling araw.

Happy times.. Ang it deserves a special blog post.

Anyway.. The reason I felt compelled to do a blog post today iss because I just received the most wonderful gift this Christmas.

An LCD monitor and a new keyboard.

Bwahahahahha!!
Nawindang talaga ako. Kaninang gabi, akala ko, wala akong regalo.. puro keychains and charms and medyas lang regalo ko.. pagkagising ko kanina, WAAAAA! may LCD monitor at keyboard na ako! Syet!

kaya, excite na excite ako magtype ngayon.
kung may mapansin man kayong typo's, pasensya! PASKO naman eh!

So.. Its a season of giving, a season of rejoicing.. Ibig sabihin ng season, matagal. aabot yan hanggang February. pustahan pa tau.

MALIGAYANG PASKO!!!

Now Playing:
Comeback - Bush
Last Christmas - Jimmy Eat World

Halooo!
Well, this is not the first time that I would make my title as relevant to my article as I could.. But, hey.. I like the sound of it, so scram...!
Wait! don't go, I insist that you stay with me for a while.. and I'll display some of my RANDOMNESS..!
Sorry, its just hard to get some topics nowadays.. Maybe I'll make a decent blog entry for Christmas... but that can wait.

1) We have a project in Filipino.. we should make a slideshow/movie of our batch pictures.. but it's just annoying that some people grab my photos, especially here in my blog.. shet! I don't think they realize how hard it is to capture those moments.. ='(

2) I haven't told you about this guy who jumped off the second floor of our school building because of a f****** break-up. Yeah.. true as gravity. But I still reserve that for more.. it deserves a solo blog entry.

3) I have been to Divisoria and I'll never go there again. Everything's sooooo messed up.. I think I have experienced Manila long enough to say I'm a full-time Pinoy.

4)Fundraising is for fools. We have spent more for our costumes than what we need to raise.

5) Everyone's more excited to watch this shit they call Twilight than Christmas, yikes! Here's the trailer link just to pump up your adrenaline..

6) Citizen Advancement Training.. Or should I say.. it Trains Citizens to go home in Advance.
Hahahhah! I just cannot believe it, how our batch takes this program very lightly.. Well, I don't think our batch had a full attendance for this.. And as the weeks pass, here's the handful of people attending this "CAT."

7) We had this Dyaryo Bote Naman Dyan, its a fundraising activity where smart, wealthy, and educated students take a leave off their books and go buzzing around like flies through the neighborhood, sniffing others' junk and crap. Here's an awful snapshot.

Like the guy who jumped off the second floor, this crappy thing deserves its solo blog entry, so wait for that.

Meanwhile,I have this thing you call "homework" which keeps me dead for almost 12 years. I still have to do it to prevent me from being ALIVE.
Thanks for your time! (and internet connection)

2008-10-29T19:25:00.000-07:00

Hay, ang sarap isipin na umabsent ako sa isang practice namin. Haha! (For once!) Eh kasi naman, sino bang panganay ang hindi manggigilaiti sa sarili kung lustayin nya ang kanyang bakasyon kasama ang mga kaklase nya kung sa bahay ay naghihirap ang kanyang ina sa pag-aalaga ng kanyang kapatid na wala pang isang linggo ang gulang..? (ang haba ng tanong.)

Anyway, Minsan lang ako magtagalog sa blog ko kaya lubus-lubusin na!!
So, I present, A movie review!!!

Ayun, so katatapos ko lang manood ng movie, Curse of the Golden Flower, ang talagang nawindang ako. Hindi naman sa hindi ako madalas makanood ng mga war movies na katulad noon. Pero talagang nawindang ako sa sobrang kulay ng movie. Halos lahat na ata ng kulay, pinakita sa bawat scene.. Haha! And, ito pa, talagang ginamit ng China ang kanilang advantage ng pagiging most populous country in the world! Mawiwindang ka sa dami ng extra na nandun.. As in! Kung sa mga artista, masasabing star-studded yung movie. Chow Yun Fat, Gong Li, at Jay Chou. Hay, kung medyo hindi ka makarelate sa mga artistang kapwa mo Asyano, i-Wiki mo na! Dapat naman may kilala ka sa kanila ano?!

Lalo pa akong na-inlove kay Mama Gong Li sa movie. Solid yung portrayal nya sa movie as mataray and medyo baliw na Empress! Plus, nakadagdag sa ganda points nya ng todo yung mga damit nya as Empress, kahit dugu-duguan na lahat, yung haggard look nya, astig pa rin! And if you still don't know Gong Li, sya yung Hatsumomo (bad geisha) sa Memoirs of a Geisha. Di mo pa rin alam?! baka naman masyado kang nakapokus sa Kanlurang bahagi ng mundo!?

Jay Chou. The name says it all. Sa totoo lang, Jay Chou, parang English name ng isang miyembro ng Asian boyband. Pero nang makita ko na yun yung pangalan ng isa sa mga bida sa movie na ito, Hala, convert ako into an Asian movie fanatic eh! Jay Chou is the second son of the Emperor and the first son of Empress sa movie. Napakagaling nya sa martial arts, and ginawa pa siyang head ng Imperial Guards sa super galing nya. Kumpara mo naman dun sa playboy at lampayatot na Crown Prince na unang anak nung Emperor. Haha!
(i-Wiki mo na lang!)
Chow Yun Fat. Lalo pa akong nainis sa pagmumukha nya kasi mukha siyang mayamang rapist. Kahit dun sa Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, talagang uber-inis na ako sa mukha nya kahit bida sya! And merong part na pinatay nya yung bunsong anak nya dahil pinagpapapalo nya ng sinturon na gold. Langhya, masakit yun. Naalala ko tuloy yung Lathalain ko about "sa muling dampi ng sinturon"

Hay, kulang pa kasi yang mga pag-rereview ko, you just need to see the movie para mafeel mo yung ecstasy.

Sorry na lang sa mga colorblind. Talagang mabibighani ka sa ganda..=)

Another movie, Wicked Little Things.
Hay naku, contrast sa Curse of the Golden Flower yung reaksyon ko dito.
Ampangit! Dinadaan na lang sa sindak at laman-loob yung movie. Para na syang killing spree, hindi na ghost movie.

Pano ba naman, mga bata kasi yung mga zombie dito, eh, hello?! parang pinulbuhan lang yung mga bata tapos nilagyan ng ketchup yung bibig. Eto pa, hindi talaga mukhang mga zombie yung mga yun kasi, mga bata nga, hindi sila naglalakad na parang mga zombie. Aba! Tama pa ang stance ng pagtakbo. Plus, yung mga damit nila, all black at mukhang bago! diba kapag zombie ka, galing ka dapat sa lupa?! Aba, yung damit nila, ang linis!

And, eto pa, they casted unknowns for the movie, dapat naman siguro na maganda man lang sumigaw yung mga artista no?! parang nakakita lang patay na ipis yung pagsigaw nila! ang OA pa umiyak! Meron pa isa, yung bunsong anak nung babae, na di umano'y nakipagkaibigan dun sa isang zombie, parang hindi na bata! parang grade 5 na nga eh, diretso na magsalita at mukha namang may muwang sa mundo, hala, napaamo pa ng multo! ewan ko kung stressed out lang yung bata sa kawalan ng katalinuhan ng ina't kapatid nya, pero as in nakipagkaibigan sya sa multo, hello..?! baka hindi talaga mukhang multo yung multo, kasi nga mukha lang espasol na black yung cover yung multo!
Pero, meron pa namang maganda sa movie. Yung gore factor, medyo OK pa naman, nasindak pa ako sa pagkain ng mga zombie sa patay na baboy. Yun lang siguro. =)

Well, alam kong malalagot pa ako sa mga kaklase ko ngayon kasi nagppraktis pa sila. Pero wala tlaga akong magagawa sa ngayon, momma says I need to be here. And as of now, I am.. =(

Well. Lets talk stuff!

1.) I feel dizzy.

2) I'm juggling my priorities in school, and I kept on running away from them instead of facing them head on. (that is, if I still have my head.)

3) I feel so pressured right now. (Haha!) I feel I don't really deserve to be in DSSPC. Well, at least I had the experience. And I had fun. I made new friends. I visited some places again.

4) I'm officially addicted to Bluegrass!!

5) Bluegrass is not a drug. According to Wikipedia, Bluegrass music is a form of American roots music, and is a sub-genre of country music. It has its own roots in Irish, Scottish and English traditional music. Bluegrass was inspired by the music of immigrants from the United Kingdom and Ireland (particularly the Scots-Irish immigrants in Appalachia), as well as jazz and blues.

6) Try THIS SIDE by Nickel Creek.

Well, I still have to go and face my brother. He's challenging me for a match in Games of the General. (I'll just keep this short.)

Oblivion (Op.6)

2008-10-12T01:46:00.000-07:00

Oblivion

Oblivion rises from a point of demand
that none of us can change
the ubiquitous joy of forgetting
the sorrows of life

But what can our brains do but forget
the rabid things our mindless bodies did
the indelible suffering of the mind
on certain moments it is absent

Forgetting is the drug we kept on taking
to stand all of that we endure
where will you go, my dear friend
when even the vicissitudes of oblivion, we forget?

2008-10-12T01:01:00.000-07:00

Hey there!

Wow, It's been a while since I left you guys, and I'm pretty sure you're just too damn tired to see the same posts whenever you visit my blog.. So I won't fail you right now.. I'll just update you with my latest..=)

OK, so why is the title MUNDO NUEVO. means New World actually. A lot has happened in the past that I don't think I remember them all. Its just this.
Every little detail that happened to me definitely changed my life.. somehow.

1) I'm in our school paper. Filipino Journalism, that is..

2) I felt tired of checking my Friendster account.

3) For the first time in my life (well, maybe not, but I can't remember those other times),
I crammed a project and worked on it all night long. I didn't get any sleep that day. But for worse, my head ached that day because I drank 2 cans of San Mig super dry just to keep me awake.

4) I've been stressing lately for my first ever school competition, that is, photojournalism.

5) Notes are stressing me out. (I know there are others.) I mean, I can't think of a way on how you can change the world by writing stuff that you don't really understand.

6) In addition, you still have to waste your time gluing some scrapbook stuff and colored paper cuts on your notebook just to get a high grade.

7) It's all about reporting in school right now. And I still can't get a whole lot of it because I'm too focused with a pink throwpillow at school.

8) We have new neighbors here. Well, thank God their house is finished because its too loud. Anyway, when I came over for an introduction, I saw that there lives a guy, I think 17 or 18, that looks like Steven Strait, literally. (just google if you're curious.) The bad thing is that, he's aloof and stays with the computer for countless hours. (which reminds me of my ex-crush)

9) After some reflections, I have had enough of my "pakialamera" attitude already. I think I'm gonna stay low and avoid conflicts from now on. Its too tiring to chase the spotlight and its too blinding to stay in it.

10) Check out my new songs, they're great..=)

So, there are calamity victims surrounding the volcano.. Haha!

Well, other sections (and years) made the classroom steamy hot.. One because of the short dance showdown between Janelle and a very deranged girl.

May bago akong nalaman tungkol sa alimasag..
Alam nyo ba na may tatlong uri ng alimasag..? May lalaki, babae at BAKLA.
Ang lalaking alimasag, maraming laman. (yung puting laman.)
Ang babaeng alimasag, maraming taba (yung medyo yellow na laman.)
Syempre, kapag BAKLA yung alimasag, maraming taba at laman.. so mas mahal daw yun kapag binenta.. Hahahahha!

There are so many things going on.. And I think I'm blogging the late stuff..

Hey, its me again.. Sorry if you're already too tired to read this one.. But I just have to share some of my insights these days.. especially because I'm currently dealing with global issues and some horrid stuff.

1) Animals which display profundity cease to be animals and will have to be judged by the highest standards.

2) Life belongs to those who are alive.

3) Glitter and goth makes blood shine.

4) Ang walang malay ay MALAYA.

5) Ang walang laman ay napupuno. Ang puno ay hindi na nalalagyan ng laman.

6) SIGAW ng PILIPINAS: Ang tungkulin ay para lang sa malakas; ang karapatan ay para lang sa mahirap.

7) Wala pang tanong, mayroon nang sagot.

8) Makikita lang ang araw sa dilim.

9) People don't need sense to do something good.

10) Sino may book dyan ni Kerouac or ni Ishiguro..??

11) "I believe I can see the future.. because I repeat the same routine.."

>> The HHHOOOTTT guy with a cap is Channing Tatum. He can dance, act, and play ball.. (sweeeeeeeet!)

Juice meh, its a unanimous decision. vain na talaga!
(John, ang dami mo nang ganyang kuha sa akin ah!)

Hala! nakisawsaw pa!

Back the message, isa sa mga kinababaliwang gawain sa Almeda..
Mula sa simpleng pagpapakamot ng likod kasi hindi maabot, lumalim na ang gawaing ito at ngayo'y isa na sa mga reputasyon ng klase. (makata!)

Prominent members of the "Fantastic Four and the Silver surfer": Hahaha! from left to right: Invisible Woman, Human Torch (Angelo, you're so hot!)), and Mr. Fantastic..

Ito, isa sa mga pictures na talagang nagpawindang sa akin. Matapos ang isang araw na pagtitiis ng gutom, bumulaga sa akin ang mga ito. (Grabe! nagpalala pa ang mga cute na flag na yan!)

Ok, first, I want to note that my title is kinda weird for the contents of this blogpost.
Second, I apologize for the performers who did the most amazing performance (highest grade) in this activity because I didn't get the chance to capture them on cam..=)

Anyway, grades don't matter..
we had the greatest fun,
the unforgettable experience and..
the dirtiest hands..=)

Obviously, we did something with our hands..=D

First, perhaps the most awaited performance..

I would like to congratulate this group, because of their talent.. haha! I mean, they grabbed all the choreographers in Almeda!

You know, with this picture, I have thought of a great metaphor..=)
THE PHILIPPINES LAY BATTERED IN THE HANDS OF OUR GENERATION.

the Tatsulok group.

hahahahha! vain!

Blood on my blouse.. ='(

Rain.. Hahahhahha!

Mr. Salvidar, Almeda's cleaner of the year.. Hahahha!

Well, its only first quarter, if Almeda did good in this..
expect better, sexier.. and wetter (!) performances!!

P.S. I would like to encourage IV-Evangelista for their super duper eye-dropping performance.. as in, wow!!

07-27-08 (Pag-asa ng bayan..)

2008-07-27T05:19:00.000-07:00

Let's get to the point..
It's a good thing that we haven't got any classes for 1.5 days.. And to think that our quarter exams are nearing.. Plus.. UPCAT's coming..
we had the most pleasurable time.. so fun that it makes being happy illegal..=)

ohhh.. sorry if I didn't have a record of our "instant acapella" hahahahh!
we just did it for only 1.5 days.. and its so amazing how quickly we mastered it.. (OK, I admit we're experts on that sort of thing already..)
But hey, the important thing is.. Aura didn't cry.. hahahhahah! for once in a blue moon, Aura didn't (nearly) shed a tear for a damn class performance.. A good sign..=)

But then, someone cried.. hahahahha! I don't know. too confidential..

Take a break!

Too Vain to mention...

The root of all evil... hahahhaha! Joke! Mrs. Marjorie Evasco.. Such an amazing person.. and so lucky.. so deep... so... O*d... =D

JOKE!

You can't believe this is what Science high school students do on free time..

Well.. A lot happened... And, for the sake of my readers, I'm supposed to pose about..
My new seat..
My new cellphone..
Almeda's new classmate..
and the controversies that surround me..

Not to mention the Mandsci Scandal.. Tsk tsk tsk.. It's a shame for pregnant women.. hahah!
But, still have to finish my book.. (To Kill a Mockingbird) for my project in Dev't Reading..!

Here's some cute stuff..

This is history-in-the-making..
This is an attempt of the Philippines to assemble the most number of people balancing a book on their heads as celebration of Goodwill Bookstore's 70th Anniversary..

And.. wow.. I'm a part of it!
Let's look at the photos, shall we?

Assembly at the AVR.. A lot of names have been called.. Its a miracle to memorize them.. hahahha!Good thing, Angelo passed his reply slip..

In Frontera Verde, Pasig City.. So many people.. but no cute guys.. ='(

Obviously, vanity strikes again.. This time, mine came with a rule-breaking attitude.. I'm supposed to sign up earlier but I don't want to..

OK, so, we're AHAFACMiPA minus Pat, Darah, Arianne, Chippy, Abby.. I can say that we're the only ones who stayed in A for 4 years.. how sad.....

I just can't figure out why those 3 guys picked that pose. hahah! and, look at Oli.. He posed like a gay model here... hahahhah!

FALL IN LINE!! Apparently, CMSHS had the most number of students.. so we had the longest line.. Kinacareer tlaga!!

This is the burden above our heads.. JOKE! This is a "photobiography" of our late Cardinal Sin.. Its just dumb that we didn't get the chance to see what's inside it..='(

Balancing.. hahhahah!

Ok.. Are you all ready..?! hahahah!

OK, we're just hanging around..!

Waaaaaaa!!!

From this angle, you can really tell where I'm at.. near the stairs!! I wish I got a good shot at the video...

Dyenen! Moment of Truth!! we had 4 dry runs.. And one true attempt! yehey!
Gosh.. You can't imagine how fast this activity was.. but then we spent the whole morning on transportation and drinking free Nesvita Pro-Digestion..!

Bye bye book! Bye, Cardinal Sin...='(

OK, here, we're supposed to take a picture of a nude statue, just me and Jellah.. but soon, everyone went into the picture..!
Hai.. iba na talaga kapa maraming singit.. JOKE!

Ok, we're on the bus.. 4-a went with 3-a.. Everyone had a nice 15-minute ride back to school, especially Cedric, who sat with Arlene.. Hahhahah!
Ummm.. But the air smells weird.. *pukes*

hahhahah! The rest..? just check out other's photos.. I ran low of memory.. ='(
See you next world record attempt!

06-21-08 (series of unfortunate events)

2008-06-21T05:05:00.000-07:00

Hi.
This is ummm.. my (do the math)th weekend since the start of classes..
And.. I just realized I still haven't seen the worst scenarios that our famous school, City of Mandaluyong Science High School, has to offer..
Just kidding..!

One.
On the first day of school, we had a flag ceremony, a pathetic school opening program featuring a *toot* band.. I wish Behind the Wall played something there.. But.. well, great things take time..
(right guys..?!)

Two.
The new line for us, the new seniors, in the flag ceremony, seems pretty interesting.. because we're literally got nearer to the school's exit.. after some months, we're on our way to college!!
(gosh, I promised myself I won't open this topic in my blog, but I did it again!)

Three.
For the hundredth time in CMSHS history, the sun struck us sooo early in the morning. As usual, I didn't bring my fan and umbrella with me.

Four.
The center stairs is now exclusive to teachers and school personnel. (That's pathetic.) I mean, to think than our room's the closest one from there.. so we have to go around the school just to go to the comfort rooms or buy the food (the only food we had for almost 4 years) in the canteen!
And, I assume that our exit as seniors will not be felt all over.. Because all levels were isolated.. I mean we haven't got the chance to meet new students from the freshmen and we can't spend time with the juniors anymore...

Five.
Arlene, our new classmate, is cool. I can see she liked us, in a way.. That's because AHAFACMiPA welcomed her. Hahahhahah! Just kidding! I mean, her first impression of Section A is not super duper geeky.. we just gave her the normal welcome.. hahahahh! Plus, she's kinda calm and easy-to-be-with...

Six.
Our first two subjects are bloody like hell. Advanced Chemistry and Advanced Physics. But I haven't got the slightest clue of how bloodier they can be..

Seven.
Lets talk Elective. I got really hopeful regarding my choice, Robotics. But then, I got so unlucky and I didn't get to the random picks.. So, I went straight to Developmental Reading.
At first, I thought we're all just going to read countless of books then submit a book report almost every month..(That's kinda cool to me!)
The first days were great.. I got the highest score in the diagnostic test. I got elected as the president of the class (thanks to my Australian accent) and I met more batchmates. (I admit I'm pretty estranged to most of them.)..
But after that! doom! everything's so stinky! we discussed the Dewey Decimal System and Library Congress Classification.. And, take note, we have to memorize them! I got zero in the first surprise quiz... (dumb dumb!)

I just hope things will get a lot better there.. I hope we'll just read and read until our books melt!

Eight.
My seat... is tooooooo far. I got the seat at the back. And my chair's too low.. So the only thing I can see is Cheska's occipital bone. But there's some good things about that. I get to be with my barkada.. I got the chance to bring back Mara's smile in our conversations again... I sat next to a vacant seat.. This is pretty cool because I can put my things there and teachers seat there most of the time.. Even if some of you don't notice, I had had close conversations with some teachers.. Especially Mam Tirones. (Although its kinda hard because she keeps speaking in English.). Another good thing is that, Jellah is one of the coolest seatmate one can have. She's good at Math, she keeps the class fund (haha!) and she's funny..

Still, these great things do not cover the one bad thing a student at the back cannot ignore..
The "Jigglypuff" syndrome..
Some time in the afternoon, a force of nature (I know nature didn't mean to cause this madness) will enter our class. And it will let out a super duper deafening and AWAKENING voice that will make even the sleepiest student to be attentive..

It seems kinda weird, but we girls at the back kept laughing during that subject. That's because the force of nature reminds us of a famous band vocalist. (haha!)

OK OK. so much for the content warning. better stop or else I can't even step into the classroom anymore.

Nine.
my world seems to revolve around my current book, Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.. Though it seems I still want to go straight and read The Two Towers right after, I'm troubled if I will choose Crime and Punishment, To kill a Mockingbird or Love in the time of Cholera for my next book.. *sighs*

Ten.
I just noticed that my handwriting became so "doodle-y".. I can even tell that I reluctantly shift from cursive to printed then back again whenever I write something... although one can understand it when read individually, my writing as a whole seemed very unorganized and somewhat crazy...

Well, gotta go now.. leave some comments, will you?

This is my last week of summer.

And I expect it to be the most satisfying week I can have.
But then, I just can't help but laze around the house because I know I will be robbed of sleep for almost a year.

Let's compare my summer last year from now.

It seems like my butt had more action last year than now. Why? That's because I had volleyball lessons last year and, I swear, it made me lose some pounds. Plus, I did countless cardiovascular exercises last year so I'm pretty sure of my health. As in, I craved movement last year. I play badminton almost everyday. I jammed with bands more often. Although the risk of McDonald's, which is soooo near from our house, cannot be avoided, I can say that last summer, I was really active.

This year, unfortunately, my butt's very inactive. Mainly because I'm still adjusting to the neighborhood and I don't feel like showing off my beauty outside.. hahahahah!
My review classes made it worse. I sat on my butt for 88 hours during May mornings. I got no exercise, whatsoever.
The only real action I had this summer is when I travel my self-proclaimed territory every single damn day.. SM Megamall.
I've been lurking inside it, day in day out. But still it's not enough. My allowance and the opening of Starbucks greatly affected my diet. I've been taking on sugar like I had no taste buds.

My addiction to novels made it a whole lot worse. I've been sitting on my butt all day. You know, just lounging around the house like a sloth or something.

OK, lets have a look on my book list.
1. Message in a Bottle - Nicholas Sparks
2. Dear John - Nicholas Sparks
3. The Other Boleyn Girl - Philippa Gregory
4. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - Mark Twain
5. The Prince - Niccolo Machiavelli (Discourses)
6. Stainless Longganisa - Bob Ong
7. ABNKKBSNPLKo?! - Bob Ong
8. Memnoch the Devil - Anne Rice
9. The Vampire Armand - Anne Rice
10. Alamat ng Gubat - Bob Ong
11. The Vanishing Thieves - Franklin Dixon
12. The art of war - Sun Tzu
13. The inconvenient truth - Al Gore
14. Maganda pa ang Daigdig - Lazaro Francisco
15. Epic of Gilgamesh
16. For one more day - Mitch Albom
17. Twilight - Stephenie Meyer
18. The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho
19. Angels and Demons - Dan Brown
20. Memories of my Melancholy Whores - Gabriel Marquez.
21. (ongoing) Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - J.R.R. Tolkien

Yikes! I never noticed that my list is this LOOOOOONNNGGGGG...!
I am. Officially. A bookworm. hahahahhahah!

Well. I promise that I'll be more active next year's summer. I'll go out more often and I'll do sports.
I'm planning on continuing my drum apprenticeship and taking Capoeira lessons (for the sake of my butt.)

05-30-08 (brain damage)

2008-05-29T22:46:00.000-07:00

Things take time. (Read on. You'll know why.)

Recently, I've been haunted by gruesome news about brain damage (which is an advantage for someone who'll take BS Psychology).. and half of it, I heard from my mom.

Based on a survey (conducted by ADB?), there are 3 classes of call center agents: Technical support (computer services), Out-bound agents (sales and marketing) and In-bound agents (customer feedbcaks).. And according to studies, in-bound agents are primary victims of brain damage.

You know, because of dealing with stubborn and stupid customers, call center agents who receive complaints everyday are more open to this sickness. Hell! Imagine you're parents scolding you almost 30 times in only 8 hours!!

you should check out the PLDT Scandal on YouTube..

And, in addition to those hellish calls, call center agents work during the night. So it creates a personality imbalance. Nightshift workers tend to feel abandoned and different because of their lifestyles. They can't see their families anymore. They can't hang out with their usual friends. They can't even watch afternoon dramas and go shopping anymore! (That's hell!)

So.. isn't it enough to listen to the crappy stuff the world throws at you, that you also need to isolate yourself from the active world..?

I don't know if this is true, but some call centers have this "panic room" where workers can scream, cry, or just stare blankly at nothing so they can relax their brain nerves.. Wow. so creepy.. (I wish there's also Starbucks inside that room.. Plus New Age songs for God's sake!)

These things don't happen in the Philippines only. Most OFW's suffer from brain damage because of homesickness, forced labor and ugly, smelly employers.

I think companies should ALWAYS think about their employees health. Not only physical but more importantly, mental health.. Because apparently, Filipinos will eventually sell their souls and brains just to get more of the "green stuff".

Another story..

I took the ACET Simulation test earlier at LSC. And its hard. It's worse that I came in late.. So I took decades of hard-learned questions for granted. (what a schmuck!) Oh well, I guess I'll study next time. I just can't concentrate on my studies again because my mind's preoccupied with end-of-summer sweets.

..(still under the BRAIN DAMAGE category.)

lets talk random!

Life doesn't teach you something.. You just have to learn from it.

A death threat makes people aware they are alive.

Most people die long before they are buried.

All things are ONE.

The most important language is the one that doesn't use words.

If the world turns its back on you, stab it in the back.

A picture paints a thousand words.. and one word shows billions of pictures.. LOVE.

Chances of immortality opens its doors for you everyday.

I think its more difficult to realize what you want than to achieve it.

Which one is more essential:

Reflection of beauty of Beauty of Reflection..?

Peace of mind or Mind of peace..?

Taste of vengeance or Vengeance of taste..?

Familiarity of pain or Pain of familiarity..?

Read on. You'll know about the logo.
Days go too quickly..

It seems like yesterday that I'm too excited for my UPCAT Review..
Now, The UP Simulation Test was over..
I can't help but realize that my May will be over sooner than I think..

I feel that my summer's cut-off is just around the corner..
Lets talk about books.

I just finished reading THE ALCHEMIST by Paulo Coelho.
Its great.. I mean.... A reader should really grasp the ideas to appreciate it..
And, as I read through its small pages, I can think of countless words of wisdom..

I mean.. Its life-changing. It has a sense of "persuasion" in it to achieve your goals in life..
I've learned many lessons after reading it.. There are lessons that I've learned but not yet realized..

(woah.. its seems like I'm a bit philosophical today!!)

Lets change topic.

I've been here, in my mom's office library since hell broke loose and I've noticed a drastic change in the atmosphere.
A Starbucks Coffee Shop is opening inside.
As I type this blog, I could smell the coffee aroma just few seats behind me.
And, as I realize my Personal Legend, I'm letting myself get closer to colonial mentality, again.

I started thinking, what's with Starbucks anyway..?
Is it because of the soothing aroma of caffeine..? The addictive quality of its coffee,..?
Or the plastic cups with the label on it..?!

I feel this opening of Starbucks here in my mom's library will make me stay away from computers with internet connections. I know more people, especially funny smelling foreigners will barge in this room just to check out this rather "award for social status" bar..
I'm afraid I will be forced to spend my monthly allowance in a single meal. (shucks!)

Hehheheheh! I think I would spare my frustrations about this some other time.. Because writing a blog about Starbucks is worth one whole article, anyway..=)

Lets talk about.. REVIEW!

I just took my UPCAT Simulation Test this morning. And I have a feeling that I will fail that. I just can't concentrate on the test. Why...?!

First, my feet are killing me. Its freezing cold inside our classroom and its a sin to wear flipflops.
Second, Angelo sneezes a lot. (Hahahahhahah!)
Third, I can see through my peripheral vision that my other seatmate, Gab (?), is looking at me. It makes me uneasy. Plus the fact that he's from Xavier School..
Fourth, I was thinking about "baby sweetoo". He's our Korean classmate and he's super adorable. He's cute.. Like a puppy.. And I'm attracted with the way he makes faces when he doesn't understand what our teacher is talking about. Its just amazing, to see something beautiful that cannot understand a simple thing.

Oh well, I guess I've learned enough.. (or I was given enough lessons to learn by myself..).
My review will be over on May 30..
To that, I have less than 2 weeks to rest and prepare for school..

School.. school.. That reminds me..
That reminds me of my unfinished business.. I will see THEM again.. I will see HIM again.. I will see HER again..
Oh, this topic deserves a whole blog entry too!

To those SUPER SPECIAL PEOPLE who have been waiting for their photos here during my bday party, relax.. I haven't uploaded them yet..=)

16 Stuff I want for my 16th Birthday

2008-05-19T01:25:00.000-07:00

Well.. Here's to show you my dreams.. now that I'm 16.. wahahahahahahha!

The LOTR Two Towers novel.

I've always wanted a turtle.. As cute as this. Just to keep it alive, I would buy an aquarium/terrarium for it..

Its not the food. its the ref. We had this old ref for centuries now and our growing family MUST buy a new and bigger one.

This is a super duper high-tech car.. Like extreme Pimp-my-Ride..! Well, I know I still can't drive... But I want this high-tech car for my family.. So we won't be rushing when going to Mandaluyong.. hahahhahah! And like Pim-my-Ride cars.. I want this to have a built-in ref, plasma TV, DVD player, Blaupunkt (?) speakers inside. It must be self-cleaning, too!

Converse. Chuck Taylor. Original. Un-emo.

Hmmmm.. Nice eh..? This is not a permanent thing.. This shows a weekend getaway with my loved ones..

A VIP access in a classic Iron Maiden concert..!

New Computer. Hehehehhehe.. with 500 GB memory space, complete hardware and unlimited internet access.

SHOPPING SPREEEEEEE..!

Plasma TV. Those ones that's so cool, it makes watching Dyesebel more "ETHICAL".

Money. Especially those crispy ones. And they must smell good like they're out of the bank..=)

iPod.

I want Lestat as a gift. And it'll be a miracle to get this one.

A drummer needs drums. And nothing's more satisfying than a Pearl drum set. (Ehem, glow-in-the-dark drumsticks, too!)

A milestone. An achievement. A life. A rebirth. An experience that defines a generation. One word that can change billions of lives.

Isn't this obvious enough..? I want a GUY..! (extra points if he's... *toot*)

A birthday post.

2008-05-18T23:42:00.001-07:00

hi!
here in my mom's office again..
Trivia, I've also been here on my birthday last year because I have volleyball training.. And I spent my time waiting for my mom in the office with my brothers but she didn't allow me to go shopping..

So I cried. I told my mom that was my worst birthday ever.
Like, who would even think about spending one's birthday on his/her mom's office..?!

Ummm, but now, its kinda OK..
I admit I really enjoy this day (so far..)
But I'm still crying..
That's because I'm reading Mitch Albom's novel: For one more day..

well, its on the long long list of books that I have to read during vacation..
At first, I'm kinda rushing it because I'm too excited to read Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, which is the next book in line..

But as I read along Albom's novel.. I started crying..
Shet! Pang-mother's day ang dating! Nakaka-iyak talaga!
Nakakahiya lang na ngumawa ngayon dito sa library kasi ang daming nagreresearch na foreigner..
As in, nakaka-iyak tlaga. ang masama pa nito, wala akong dalang panyo. (bakit pa ako magdadala, eh puro air-con ako buong araw..?!)

Hmmm.. Notice the language shift? that's a glimpse of how soul-changing the novel is!

just to add some random spice on my post..

1.) This freezing atmosphere makes me want to pee.

2.) I ate fried chicken, vegetable soup, coleslaw and red gelatin for lunch.

3.) I ate boiled bananas for breakfast.

4.) I ate milk knick knacks and oreos during our review break.

5.) I would like to thank Angelo Romasanta for treating me a Cadbury Fruit and Nut Chocolate worth P44.00 (tax included.)

6.) Instead of my Essential Sciences book, I brought my E-MAT book. (this sucks.)

7.) David vs. David!! who's it gonna be..?

8.) Tumutulo na sipon ko, sa sobrang lamig at kaka-iyak dun sa nobelang iyon. (Angelo, ikaw ang maysala.)

9.) I think our Chemistry teacher earlier in the review balded his hair because of excessive intelligence. Imagine, he is a doctor in profession..?!

10.) I want to buy an iPod for a birthday gift for myself.. because I pity myself for having this "mukhang dinamitang" mp3 (Marc Fajardo) for almost 2 years..

11.) I think I'll spend 3 hours trying to reply all my comments in Friendster.. But don't get me wrong.. Comment me, that's how you're important to me!

12.) Hmmmm.. In a few seconds after I finish this blog, I'm gonna dash to the cafeteria and grab some tissue paper so that I could clear my nose. Shame! Nakaka-iyak tlaga!!

13.) Kapag naging wrestler si Cedric "The Brick", ako magiging manager nya. hahahahhah!

14.) (Yesterday) I saw a brown butterfly stuck on a spider web. I thought I would do this freaky heroic deed and set the butterfly free. So I pulled the butterfly by its wings. But instead of setting it free, I pulled off both its wings. Now I took everything that it has to free itself.

15.) Sa mga naghihintay ng party pics nung May 17.. Hintay lang! ine-edit ko pa!! Ipopost ko rin yan sa blog!! (Humanda kayo..)

16.) 16 na ako!

OK.. *sigh*

In less than 24 hours, my 2-day early birthday party will start..

And I still don't have plans on what to cook! Shame!

Oh, well.. (Langis ito sa tagalog.) hahahahah!

kung di mo pa alam yung joke na iyon, hindi ka nakakatanggap ng GM ko.

Let's just talk random today.

I still find my habits disturbing to blog about.

Just a little trivia.

The blog entry you're about to read is the 4th one I've done today

1.) maggiore fretta, minore atto (The more haste, the less speed.) - Tom Sawyer

2.) The fastest way to get somewhere is a straight line.

3.) We are all slaves of our own.

4.) If not, ENSLAVE YOURSELF.

5.) FEEL something new.

6.) There's more glory in being the first to try something than being the first to prevent someone from trying something.

7.) You have to let go of the past so you can have a future. - Ice Age 2

8.) Leaves and petals of a flower took the shape of the tears of rain that watered them.

9.) A tree watered with tears will bear salty fruits.

10.) The spotlight's on everyone during the morning.

11.) DAVID vs. DAVID. Shucks. its hard to choose!!

12.) I wanna read this Oscar Wilde novel but I can't find any book without Oscar Wilde plays with it!

13.) I still have 20+ books to read. Shame.

14.) The Sun signal here in my mom's office library is so low.

15.) Do something about climate change. Eat your ice creams.

16.) I'm turning 16 on May 19..!!!

wahahahhahahahhaha! Sorry. This post is nonsense, I admit.

I promise I would do better next time!

Anyway, I gotta go.. I need to paint my portrait and cast a spell on it. (A clue on the novel I want to read.)

LSC Review Classes.

2008-05-14T03:49:00.000-07:00

Well, this is pretty interesting to blog right now..
Because it's what I'm busy doing this month.. hahahahahha!
And it happens every damn day.. For someone like me who wants to know new things, review classes is not the thing.

It seems pretty clear that I'm bored.. right..?
One reason is that I don't get to socialize with my review-mates.. I'm stuck with Angelo (well, Angelo's OK, he's good at math.. and he seems to remember how the problems should be done. hahahhahah!)
the whole day and I don't seem to have the courage to approach them..
Hell, how could I do that? Its so bloody just to ask for their names!
spokening dollar!

most of them are from filthy rich private schools. Hell. Me and Angelo felt like shit during classroom arguments and stuff.
Everybody's slang and all that..
And they got higher grades in our English test..
How could we? we're from a public school that teaches relatively poor English compared to those studs!

Anyway, English is only a part of the review.. And I had the most fun there because I learned new words.. hahahahhaha!

We're taking math 3 right now.. and I can still say I'm kinda good at it because it's easy.
but I dread the next math sessions. bloody.

Oh, and I forgot.
Me and Angelo have this favorite reviewmate.
He's from Paranaque National High School (?) and he's the ultimate geek we've ever met.
he wears thick glasses, has thick hair, doesn't talk to someone, reads abusively (ehem.. word power book), asks an awful lot of simple questions and answers them himself.
Maybe I can take his picture.. but I doubt it. I'm too cheap to do such thing if I would only do it to lengthen my resume when I apply for Satan's Angels.

hehehehehehehheheh!
Here's some pics.

The Whiteboard.

The Panic Room. (I took this during our break.)

The Dirty worksheet. (notice the pen? its almost empty because I'm writing a novel.)

But after review classes, I do an awful lot of stuff.
I do this in a amazingly weird sequence every single day and I admit I'm getting sick of it. Well, good thing God still gives me my weekends to interfere with this bloody routine.

This is a Strawberry and Peaches Frappe. it costs 75 pesos. Hahahhahah!
(loved the whip cream!)

bored. want to guess where I took this?

Dyenen! Its in Powerbooks.. In the Children section, the bean-shaped bookshelves! Here, I'm reading my Huck Finn novel.

But, I do multitasking. I disobey rules. I eat Skittles in Powerbooks and I keep it inside my bag.

My mom's office library. not the parlor.

Bored. Vain.

And some important photos you should see.

OK...! I have to go now!
Don't forget to text me if you want my birthday details or musikwela dvd's..!
Tag!

2008-05-13T01:00:00.000-07:00

I'm here.. again in my mom's office library..

its a cliche.. So I think I won't have to say it again in my next blog..

Anyway.. I just dropped by, so you won't miss me..=D

hahahahahah!

I have a lot of things to blog.. and my digicam will soon explode if I don't upload my pictures as soon as possible..

There's my stolen shots of my review lessons, outing in Pampanga and some pictures of my obvious boredom..

hahahahahahh!

Oh, there's one more thing..

my left ear is so painful right now.. I don't know if something's stuck in it but I doubt it.

It started "popping" when I got pushed into that damn dirty swimming pool in Pampanga.

Yeah. my cousin really caught me unprepared. (HOY! RIZZA! humanda ka sa next outing naten!!)

before I forgot..

I will be celebrating my MAY 19 birthday on MAY 17..

So you have to be in Mcdonald's Barangka by 10am..

No. Hell. I won't be having my party in mcdo. Karma may struck me there and send someone to ruin my party like I did to someone.. ahahahahhahah! LOL.

yeah, as I was saying, I can't invite evryone because I can't contact them..

so drop me a line!

0922-8880519

Notice the last 7 digits..?

hey!

I'm here in my mom's office, in the library, specifically..

I'm just enjoying my time here after that dreadful review session in English.

Shame. makes me bleed other's blood.

waaaaa!

especially the logical reasoning stuff.. like is it definitely true, most likely true, most likely false or definitely false..

its so hard..! its like its really necessary to have review lessons for the UPCAT.. I never thought it was...!

anyway, I won't blog about my review.. its gonna ruin my day.

OK. During my weekday afternoons, I'm here in my mom's office library, doing things a geek should do.

like, reading death records of countries that suffered from AIDS and SARS, crying over some environmental problems I've encountered in Al Gore's book.. I mean, it's so devastating.. everybody should be aware of them.. and everybody should do something about them.

and there's a book here about ancient Chinese philosophies and writings. its so amazing and educational. its fun, too! you can see different chinese symbols, paintings and stuff. even their ancient war weapons are there.

yeah. makes me feel I would prefer being colonized by the Asians than Europeans..

just kidding.. anyway, just to make a point, Chinese stuff is breathtaking.

and I've been learning slightly from the Mandarin lessons in the next room. Yeah, there are language lessons here in Asian Development Bank.

Hehehhehe! Its hilarious that most of the students of language classes are old foreigners.

You just have to hear them fiddle-faddle over some easy words.. Hahahhahha!

And I can conclude that many Koreans go here in the Philippines to study English, because the English in temperate Asian countries are awful and sickening.

you will have a glimpse of that when you go here.. the foreigners trying to learn Tagalog and English.. Hilarious in a very positive way..=)

Another pastime, is.. I'm TRYING to write a novel.. Well, its hard.. I've written 7 back-to-back pages so far.. And its really difficult.. especially when I have to write "a process of making love".. Well, making love is necessary in my novel because my characters are mature.. And how can I write a love-making part in my novel if I haven't even tried it...?!

waaaaa! I guess my Anne Rice addiction helped me a lot on that part..=)

Oh, well, I think I just have to sign off now.. I'm sitting next to some foreigner and he smells funny. awfully funny.

A. People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blog and replace any question they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves. Tag eight people. Those who are tagged cannot refuse.

B. These eight people must state who they were tagged by. You cannot tag the person who tagged you. Continue this game by sending this to eight other people.

----------------------
MY NOTE TO THE READER: changed some of the shittiest questions I've ever heard in my life.. Just kidding! Anyway.. I just want to spend my crappy time because Friendster's down..=(
----------------------

1. If your lover betrayed you, what will you do?

~ hmmmm.. do a blog entry for him, go to church and pray. and spend my precious time with someone WAY MUCH BETTER.

2. What will you do if you do not share the same feelings as the person who likes you?

~ I'll tell him I don't like him, that he deserves someone much better, and hook him up with a girl who has a crush on him. (devastating.)

3. What if question number two was the other way around?

~ just the same.. I'll do an awful blog entry on it, (but never get it published.), and expect him to hook me up on a guy that has a crush on me.. what was I thinking..?!

4. If you were to spend a lifetime on an island with 2 people (fiction or non-fiction), who would they be? (ehem. no relatives allowed.)

~ hmmmmm.. That's kinda easy for me, I'll choose
1) Lestat (The Vampire Chronicles) - Hell, If you know who he is, maybe you'll choose him too.! Because with Lestat, you can fly around without wings, never go hungry again because you can drink blood from animals, take a walk in Hell, mess around with ancient vampires and sing your lungs out. (he's actually a former rock singer)

2) Huckleberry Finn (Mark Twain's character) - a cunning, almost irresistible teenage boy. He can almost get through everything, from murderous mobsters to runaway niggers. He can also find buried treasures and stuff. And he has tremendous sense of humor.. Like I would think Mark Twain's novel would be a good joke book.

Other choices: Papa Jesus, Channing Tatum, Paris Hilton (?)..

5. What`s your ideal partner like?

~ someone who would keep his umbrella if I were to let myself get wet in the rain with him..
~ someone who would burn his eggs if he will cook me breakfast..
~ someone who can satisfy me unthinkable answers if I ask a simple question..
~ someone who can play "the damsel in distress" even though he can defend himself well, just to make me feel I'm strong in a way that I can save his life.
~ someone who loves chocolates and smiles after eating a bunch of them..
~ someone who will stay silent even if I beg him to talk..
~ someone who can finish my sentences..
~ someone who loves video games, music, books, TV shows that display COLONIAL MENTALITY.
~ someone who looks anorexic, but will eat every food I'll cook for him (even if it's burnt rice and longganisa)
~ someone who loves controversy. (ehem, except writers sa tabloids)
~ someone who reads between the lines.. ( ________read______ )
~ someone who's NAUGHTY AND NICE..
~ someone who can let me teach him some things he can't learn in school.
~ SOMEONE WHO WILL READ MY BLOG.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?

~ EHEM, you can't compare blessings. and how will I know the difference of those two if I'm experiencing both? (yabang!!)

7. If the person you like does not accept you, would you continue for them to change their feelings?

~ what? what's with the statement "does not accept you"..? Anyway, How am I suppose to change his feelings..? Its free will, even God can't change that!

8. If the person you like is already attached, what would you do?

~ hmmm. Of course, trying something new won't hurt.. (waaaa!), Just kidding! I mean, my selfishness will cause heartbreaks.. I would just keep my feelings to myself.. or.. blog about it like hell.

9. If the person you like says he/she likes you, and you are attached with someone else, what will you do?

~ how stupid! I wouldn't like someone who can risk friendships and commitments just to have what he wants!! Anyway, I wouldn't "attach" myself to someone whom I don't like best in the first place..

10. What do you want most in your life?

~ Hakuna Matata, Action, Lots of Sleep and Money. but if that question needs one answer, my answer will be, INDIVIDUALITY.

11. Is being tagged fun?

~ yeah.

12. What is the corniest thing you've ever wished for?

~ I don't know, mainly because I wouldn't wish for anything that's not corny anyway..

13. If you were to compare your life with a meal/food, what would it be? (extra points if you can say it like a quotation..)

~ "Ang buhay ko ay parang beef tapa, walang tiyak na hugis at matapang ang lasa, ngunit lalong sumasarap kapag may kasamang suka. "

14. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?

~ bored, brilliant, unpredictable. (sana lang hindi siya makapulot ng Death Note.)

15. Would you rather be single & rich or married & poor?

~ Single and Rich, mainly because I'm not into marriage that much..

16. What would be the most extreme (and possible) thing you could do to get noticed?

~ Oh, you don't wanna know about THAT, do you?! Ako pa!

17. If you were to sacrifice one of your senses (sight, smell, touch, hearing, taste), what would it be?

~ Syet, ang hirap ng naisip kong tanong. hmmmmm.. sight na lang.. hehhehehe.. because looks can be deceiving.. And.. oo nga pala! hindi na ako makakabasa ng libro! hmmmm.. Think, think, think... Smell and taste go together right..? hmmmm.. touch na lang!

18. If you will be given one superpower, what would it be?

~ Control time. because time determines all forces of nature.

19. What types of people do you like?

~ types of people..? May subspecies pa ba tau...? Anyone who can think for themselves, just like a HUMAN does. (exception ako.)

20. If you played a prank on someone, and he or she fell for the trick, what would you do?

~ Cry tears of joy and burst with unspeakable laughter.. And try everything just to keep him/her from knowing that I did it..=)

Mlapit na bday ko! excited na akong tumanda!!! ehem.ehem.. Plano ko sanang mag-overnyt na lang tayo sa bahay ko dito sa Pasig.. Or di kaya, mag-malling na lang tayo.. Of course, YOUR TREAT!
TAG ME!

Lets talk random!

1) Lilo is the cutest Disney character for me!

2) Paggawa ba ng kabutihan ang hindi paggawa ng kasamaan?

3) Paggawa ba ng kasamaan ang hindi paggawa ng kabutihan?

4) Hindi lahat ng lumilipad ay may pakpak.

5) Hindi lahat ng may mata ang nakakakita.

6) Absence makes the heart go fonder. But most of the time, Absence makes the heart wander.

7) Kung maiksi ang kumot, matutong mamaluktot: Kung maiksi ang kumot, tahiin ang kumot mo at kumot ng iyong katabi, tsaka kayo magyakapan sa gabi.

8) Which color best represents EMPTINESS..? Black or white?

9) Opposites attract.. But most of the time, OPPOSITES ATTACK.
That's why in a relationship, SIMILARITIES are necessary.

10) Kailangang sisirin ang lalim ng dagat kung nais makita ang kinang ng perlas.

11) Kung bibigyan ang bawat Pilipino ng isang sakong bigas, marami ang magbebenta ng sako nila sa ibang bansa, tsaka aagawin ang sa kapwa nila.. (RICE CRISIS, everyone?)

12) Huwag umasa sa liwanag dahil mapupundi rin ang ilaw.

13) Ano pang mas hihigit na kalayaan kaysa mabuhay sa SARILI mong KULUNGAN..?

14) Mayroon bang madulas na bako sa daan..?

15) Irony: Walang damit ang mga tao nung Ice Age; nakadamit tayo ngayon kahit Global Warming.

16) There is Good because there is Evil.

17) It became clear to me that the only thing I feel for SOMEONE reading this blog is INFATUATION. (kapag curious ka, mag-tag.)

2008-05-01T06:22:00.000-07:00

Its May 1. Labor Day. May Day. Worker's Day. Rally Day. Holi-Day.

I guess the whole nation's taking a break from work (except those in malls..).
And every organization will take this holiday as an opportunity to rave about the same stuff over and over again just to piss off the government.

Well, I guess whatever their agenda may be, it won't be enough to succeed. Because the skies won't allow them. Its been scorching hot during noontime then freaky gloomy later that afternoon.

Lets discuss some styles of "Getting Attention" by our heroes for today's blog, the rallyists!

One is the WALKATHON.
Its just absurd, to think that thousands of workers, mainly farmers, walk from their provinces to Metro Manila just to get attention. I mean, what the ---? Walking is good for one's health and environment. And to think there are thousands of them, its what we call, BONDING TIME in school. Its hard, I know, to walk long distances under the scorching city roads. Oh, that's an understatement. But its costly. Walking long distances takes excessive effort, time, money, props, footwear and sunblock lotion. Need I say more?

The next type of "pagpapapansin" in the government is when rallyists stuff themselves on streetsides, often opposite a government building, shouting with a megaphone. Oftentimes, a crowd behind will shout "oo nga!" after every statement of the megaphone-man. Wow. That's what I call, CLASSIC RALLYING. They cause misery not only to the government but also to motorists, civilians and apparently, to themselves. Its attention, alright.But when you see just 40+ people doing that, its pretty pathetic. Where's the unity? Its not like the government will change the damn old constitution for 40 people!

Another type of rallying agrees with the saying, "Absence makes the heart go fonder". Hmmm.. Still curious..? Just think, there's an obvious difference between "when animals strike" and "when jeepneys strike". Yeah. Strikes. When the workers involved do not get involved. It usually gets a lot of attention. That's why nationwide strikes by some organizations are successful. Think of the benefits. One, they can take a break. Two, no one will get hurt. Three, it will cost them less (or nothing at all.). Its that easy! All they have to do is sit on their fat butts. And.. Voila! The whole nation's getting a hard time doing daily tasks!

The only antagonists in these rallies are the ones we call, KILLJOYS, on the side of the rallyists. And these killjoys multiply during school days. Just take jeepney strikes during school days. They only affect one barangay, for God's sake! They make students hope for nothing! That's sick! Where's the unity?! If you'll do a strike, make sure EVERYBODY will cooperate!

OK, I will be damned if I don't include PRAYER RALLY.
its in the title. People gather in a certain place to pray. They pray for everything even winning on that nights lottery. I don't want to state any opinions on this style of rallying because of my religion and boredom.

Ok, lets skip the other styles in rallying and discuss the more exciting one.
The ones in EDSA or Mendiola. The ones with riots, explosion and free shower!

That's what I call NEAR-DEATH RALLY aka bangayan, kachuvahan, kabonggayan, kaeklabuhan, or simply MALAKING KAGULUHAN..

I love watching the news whenever there's a near-death rally. I mean, everyone will bleed, cry, get beaten by the police using bats and newspapers. Its like an ancient battle, where two sides will push each other. So exciting! And then, the media gets too involved also. The best movie in Philippine history is on the rally news! So cool to see cameras get banged while filming the chaos. It looks real! (Damn you, its REAL!) And, if I can suggest a background song for these rallies, I would choose BODIES by Drowning Pool. (Listen to it!) My tagline "Hell just broke loose" is definitely an understatement.

During these rallies, everyone must participate. Because it will greatly affect their lives. If you ask a random rallyist about his/her experience, He/She will say extreme things, like guns shooting everywhere, police battering one's head, undefeated hoses splashes water all over the place, everyone running, panicking, getting stepped on, dragons breathing out fire and other crazy stuff. And most of the time, you can see all styles of rallying in a near-death rally. Some people are praying, some are shouting on the megaphone, some are walking (of course!) and most pedestrians and vehicles are not on the road (basta lang masama ang strike!) And eventually, a near-death rally doesn't end on a certain place. Loud politicians will open the topic on the congress. And countless rallyists will complain about police brutality, assault, etc.! Unbelievable. I actually included this in my long long long list of things to do before I die.

OK. I know a frequent rallyist will mock me to death because I enjoy these things. And honestly, I do, a little bit. But I want to learn from these rallies. I can see people fighting for what they deserve and believe in. They risk their lives for these actions, just to get the attention and hopefully, a SOLUTION. Well, its not really a permanent solution for everyone. But that's only what the common people can do because of democracy. They use their capabilities and rights to prove something.

What gets me wrong is the lack of unity and the involvement of money. I've heard some organizations pay people just to join the rally. That's pathetically sick. Way too sick for a person, a Filipino, who fought for his freedom. I can't say how awkward it is to discuss these KABULUKAN NG LIPUNAN in my blog but I think to give you a glimpse of reality is wise enough for you, my readers, to reflect on yourselves.

I hope my blog entry/masterpiece will stick to your freakishly hardcore minds (kidding!). Especially to those who plan to be active/already active in political affairs..
Hmmm.. A bit out of the topic.. I promise I'll promote Filipino workmanship next year on Labor day!

MABUHAY ANG MANGGAGAWANG PILIPINO!!

This is a 15-turning-16-in-less-than-3-weeks-year-old's revelation (hell.)
Tag me.
See you in SHEOL. (gets mo ito kapag bisyo mo si Lestat.)

2008-04-29T22:25:00.000-07:00

I can't believe that I'm going to blog something about this..

OK, lets get this over with...

I've been listening to my "mahiwagang baul of songs", which is immensely crowded already.. just imagine, I have 1500+ songs in my playlist.. and they use 4GB of memory..
and another fact, the I still didn't include my classic songs and drum relays.. tsk...

I really have to burn them now...
Yeah, so I was saying...
Oh, You know, there are many classes under the kingdom of "posers".. and, I will focus on the music class because, these species are the ones who we see often.

I have told "someone" about this matter, which I think he/she already forgot about it..

Music is a virtue, its life, its everything.. Its an important part of human/animal existence..
Hmmmm.. I think I'll say that all living things devour music, whether they are talking candelabras or evil trees.

And as I say that music is human existence, there comes the "individuality" of music..
I mean, in some way, music has classifications based on country, singer/artist, melody, tune, instruments used.. and so much more..

so everyone can conclude that 2 songs has at least one similarity.
This similarity also applies with the people who listen to those songs..
Well, during my elementary days, I'm proud to say that I'm addicted to songs already.. Maybe because my mom is an addict.
Unlike most babies who have nursery lullabies, I've been listening to the radio already.. My mom would use blank tapes and record songs from the radio and she will play them again and again until I'm asleep.

That's an early start for a music addict, don't you think..?

So by the time I studied in school, I've been listening to underground alternative rock, powerpop, with a mix of hip hop..
HIP HOP..?! mainly because I hang out with guys and they're into breakdancing..(I'm a guy during my elementary days..)
One time, I was singing Behind those eyes by 3 doors down and no one even knows it.. I mean.. Its a great song, how come no one knows it..?

I just kept this obsession with myself..
Until I came across jazz.
I don't know, but I think it was late grade5 times when I became addicted to it..
I remember its because I saw an indie movie with jazz soundtrack.. So I immediately loved it..

but then, I have no one to talk to.. I mean, no one shares my flare about songs.. literally..
So I gave up my jazz thing and went back to alternative rock and power pop..

I continued to listen to these genres.. especially the early songs of Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessional
woah, until the world started to notice Fall Out Boy, my Chemical Romance, etc... (finally!)
forgive me, but I think Fall Out Boy's exposure caused many "nobody's" to turn to "somebody's" and, eventually "everybody"..
well, a new kingdom of mortals was born.

Everyone started learning the guitars, drums, keyboards.. wow!
no, there's nothing wrong with that, I think, because making music is better than "wearing" music.

Oh, its painful, to think that most people switched to extremely loose jerseys to ultra skinny jeans and chuck taylor's
Here's some samples of the species we call, emo and their role in the ecosystem.

Grabe. Naghihirap na nga sila (see background) pero emo pa rin!

LABO.

Hey! Lets look at it in the positive side. Many music lovers started to feel "they belong", and the history of the world wrote another page of interesting facts. For once in a million years, it seemed like BEING ALONE AND MISERABLE is COOL. And a handful of people "found" themselves being emo, and considered it not only as a state of mind and fashion but also their "individuality". We witnessed the evolution of art, clothing, colors, literature style, instruments, make-up, new language, humor, chemical formulas, etc..
Here's some samples of the beauty behind emo.

Well..
Its so amazing yet, nerve-cracking..
Its great that I can freely say..
That I'm proud to be a TRUE POSER.

Start again - Duncan Sheik
Appassionata - Beethoven (may history ito.)

2008-04-27T21:49:00.000-07:00

In less than 2 weeks, my review will finally start.
Hell. Its just like yesterday I'm too excited to take them. Now, I'm trying so hard to aviod thinking about it, because I don't want to go..

I just realized, I have done nothing progressive this month, except for reading countless novels and stuff.

So I started this gimmick. I even bought the expensive Yellow Cab ice cream just to get a metal container.. (mall rats know what it looks like.)
OK, I used my little sister's mini memo.. You know, the little notepads you get from party bags in birthday parties.. and listed random household chores in it..
I'll just state some.. So you can relate better.

1) wash car.
2) dust bookshelves.
3) learn how to iron your uniform without burning them. (haha.)
4) wash Papa's heavy pants/jeans. (argh! so painful!)
5) clean bathroom.

and wrote them in paper and put them inside the container.. Like a "palabunutan".
So everyday, I have to do a random household shitty stuff.

Well, this sounded like hell for almost all teenagers during summer.. Heheheh.. I admit, it sounded pretty afflictive to me.
So I also wrote some "free day" strips.. Mainly that's because I love myself so much and I would cry to see myself suffer from the sadist hands of OUR HOUSE.

Let's change topic.
I'm currently reading Anne Rice's Memnoch the Devil.
I'm enjoying it from the bottom of my sleepless mind. Hahahhahhahahha!
Well, I can imagine myself reading so much of it so I did. And I spent one whole night doing it. I just stopped when I realized its sunrise. Good thing, I don't have a quiz that day so I can sleep in class. (uhmmm.. figuratively.)
Anyway, I will read The Vampire Armand that Aura lent me.. OK, at first, I just bought Memnoch the Devil so that I can understand Aura's book better.. I'm so excited to read Aura's book because she was raving about countless things making love in the book.
But then, I love the book I'm reading right now. With Lestat's irresistible charm and humor, the book's just incredible.. Lestat's character is, for me, the best part of the series because he's a natural storyteller.. =)

Yeah, I almost forgot!
I was being a mall rat (again) yesterday when this book caught my eye. Well, I've been dreaming to read about this book because I've seen the movie(s) about it.
I know its unfortunate to watch the movie before reading the book itself but I just can't stop myself. I will have misconceptions on the book, but I guess there's no harm in trying..
Its JRR Tolkien's The Fellowship of the Ring.

OK.. Let's explore the vast world and think of something weird, I guess..
Time for my Philosophies/Questions!

1) Only TWO things make a hero: Sacrifice and Death.

2) What sin is not pardonable?

3) Justice is only one man's idea.

4) Some people live even after they die. But most people are not living before they die.

5) Evil is an abstract thing. So as Good.

Hey, keep hitting me! (I mean the blog views.)

2008-04-21T22:35:00.000-07:00

Hi, everyone!
its been a while... so cool that I can feel its summer now..

weird..

OK.. I was thinking another topic today.. And then my brother, Miguel, came up to me and asked me..
"ate, sino ang tatay ni Joselito Jr...?"
I have no idea.. Hahhahahha!

Then he answered, " eh di si Joselito Sr..!" hahahahahha!
real funny..

now I'm thinking, its about time I stop raving on how I'm enjoying my summer alone..
My family's there.. and I have to give them some recognition..
I have to focus with my siblings, of course, because I know my parents would hate to learn that I blogged about them anyway..

OK, I have 4.. now 5 siblings.. That would be considered a HUGE family for most people..
But, unlike them, I learned to accept the fact that deep inside, I want to have more.
(shit. I'm crying like hell.)

When I learned my mom will have another child, I was.. damn furious.. Maybe I should be. I just can't help it. When I learned about my mom's pregnancy, we were discussing "overpopulation" in our Social Studies class. (hell just broke loose.)

Then, my mom started to ignore me. As if my seat's vacant during dinner time.. And when I'm playing with my sister in the living room, my mom would say that maybe I didn't really love my sister at all.
It broke my heart. Like, I love my siblings like hell. I can't imagine life without them. Maybe it wouldn't be a life at all if I'm alone..
So I finally showed my mom that I'm sorry..
Whatever.. Fuck overpopulation.
I would just kill as many people as I can so the country would loosen up. (I mean that)

About my brothers, they're the best. I know. having two wrestlers in the house is an advantage. I mean, they an carry heavy loads, you can punch them and they would laugh. And they have this talent for jokes that even the Presidency would cry laughing.

One time, my dad took them to site and he promised them he will take them to Timezone.. (you know elementary kids.. right?)
But they came home immediately. My brothers were furious. They cried like hell.
They argued with my tired daddy.

"Ikaw kasi eh! Sabi mo pupunta tayo dun! Sinungaling ka! PINUPUTOL MO ANG SAYA NAMIN!!!"
" Oo nga, namumutol ka ng saya! Hindi na SAYA, "AYA" na lang!!!"

My parents went laughing!
Tsk.. Sick children.

And then, sometimes, you would just laugh at how they fight each other. They would just wrestle each other, and punch and kick each other. You can hear their bones tick and break. Then they would laugh. Obviously, me, as a sister, would join them. I don't know. Its just amazing that I have two bodyguards when I grow older.

There's also a time when they would joke about Tito Sotto..
Like, ano kayang tawag ng pamangkin ni Tito Sotto sa kanya..? Tito Tito..? Uncle Tito..?

ahahahhahahah! hilarious.. Really.

Next, my two babies, Abby and Schoooiieii.. So cute. Beyond words.. Especially when I make them cry for hell because I hug them too tightly.. That's why when I tell someone that a family without babies is not a family at all.. Its actually an UNDERSTATEMENT..

I know, I'll be hated by those family planning weirdos.. But hell, not that I disagree with them.. They have a point..
But if the parents can really afford to have children, and raise them as citizens, then why stop them? Its love that matters.. And love is both reason and result.
