COMPRE NA!!!

I went to DLSU today. I saw some of my classmates- Veron, Karla and Jill. We were surprised when we found out that our Comprehensive Examination is set next week. Yes, next week na!!!!!! We're all doomed. We all thought it would be on the 3rd week, but no, it's happening next week!

I'm not that prepared. Lord, help me!

Paranoia or Reality?

I've been so careful nowadays because a virus is continually spreading. Like I would wash my hands with soap longer and more often, use alcohol or alcogel after I touch on things, and drink more amount of vitamins. I have never been so OC like this because I really don't want to acquire flu or fever when almost all people are. Inside me, I wanted to be strong even though I know that my blood pressure drops from 100/70 or sometimes 90/60.

However, no matter how I take care of myself, I can still acquire sickness. Right now, I thought, I was just being paranoid that I feel so cold and that I have fever. Several times today, I asked some people if I'm hot. Yer, they just said that I'm just being paranoid. I took a half-day vacation leave today and Michael fetch me in the office. I asked him if I was hot, he said the same thing, I was just being paranoid.

When he dropped me home, he held me and said, "Sweet, mainit ka nga ah." So there, it wasn't paranoia at all, now it's a real thing happening. I'm sick. I self-quarantine myself in the other room and here, I'm helping myself out. Of course, this is not A (H1N1), just a mere fever that attacks everyone in the office.

Goodthing, it's my off and I'm on VL again on Sunday. I hope I could get better soon.

Wants in Reality

Lately, I've been daydreaming of things I want to have in reality. Please note of the word "want" and "reality".



I want the latest Ipod Shuffle-4GB. So small so cute!


I want this extra-thin fabulous Apple laptop. Perfect for my upcoming thesis!




I want a PSP. I could have gotten one if I have just told my dad or mom. But I don't want them to spend money for my luxury. I want to buy this out of my own pocket. Alright, I know I could have already bought one for myself... but... I'm a self-confessed "kuripot" for myself. I'm still in agony thinking if I should buy one.



I need to buy one because my cam is not working.



I want to buy stocks in the market.



I want to buy the lot of my Elementary School.




I want to go to Baguio with my Hone... soon!



I want to go to Palawan with my Mom and Dad... and take lovely pictures with them.



I want to go to HongKong. I know it's coming by September, but I just can't wait. I want the Comprehensive Exam to be over so I can rest, relax and shop.



I also want to explore Singapore. It's a perfect gift for myself on my next birthday which happens next year. Lastly,



I want my Hone to start his training, so we could start out our plans for the family that we will build.

I have never been so materialistic all my life 'coz my parents have taught me to be thankful for whatever I have. But now, I just simply want to have these things, they're all attainable anyway! I don't know if it'll all make me happy, maybe somehow, partly or maybe yes.

Am I asking too much?

Happy Father's Day

Papa, we've been through a lot of mess... together, as a family.
I've done certain things in my life I know you didn't like but you know, I did it for your sake.
And no matter what... you'll always be loved by me and by Mama.
For me, you're the best Dad, and no one can ever changed that until I breathe and have this life on earth.

Miracle of Life

My Mom and I were talking to Aye (our family dog) for days if it's time for her to deliver her babies. Saturday morning we noticed that she's in huge pain because she screamed and chilled the whole afternoon. If there's anyone who's excited for Aye's baby, of course, it's gonna be me.:P

Then, the time has come. 'Twas Saturday night at around 8pm when Aye, delivered her five healthy and cutie babies. It was amazing how our little dog turned out to be a mom. Imagine, even dog have instincts and have motherly love for their babies, 'twas really amazing. She just knew exactly what to do.

All of us were so happy for Aye, and we just can't believe that she's now a mom and my mom and dad are now grandparents.:P Perhaps, you understand why we all feel this way... it's because it's our first time to have a dog who delivered babies.:p

How much have you changed in 10 years?

I took the "How much have you changed in 10 years?" test in Facebook and here's the result:



It says, I've changed 45% in 10 years.

I know I shouldn't give much thought about this test, I know well the tests accuracy (hahaha!) Though I wonder inside if I've really changed that much or that little.

Travelling back in time, 10 years ago, I was just, okay... 15 years old (that confirms my age now, huh?!).

I was a 15 year-old highschool girl- Physicaly thin but fit, emotionally unstable, intellectually hungry, socially balanced, economically dependent to my parents, and spiritually active and fulfilled.

Let me differentiate how I was before and how I am today.

10 years ago, I woke up every 5:00 o'clock in the morning, diligently prepare and go to school everyday, asked my daily allowance from my dad or mom, listened and actively participated in school activities, struggled in Calculus and Chemistry, mingled with classmates and friends inside and outside class, bullied at times and cried a lot, wrote poems, compiled songs and diary in a notebook, wished to be truly liked and loved by my crush, allowed time to pass before going straight home after school, watched television or listened to 96.3 WRock, played volleyball, talked to a particular circle of friends in my life, chatted on phone every night, studied and made assignments, sometimes argued with dad and especially with my mom, wrote and collected love and friendship letters, sneaked to go to the mall or to my friends houses, ate in fastfoods, asks my parents to bring me to the mall to shop, had little cracks on relationship with few persons, went to church every Sunday & served God by dancing, and I dreamed one day at a time.

10 years after, I wake up at 4:00 in the afternoon to start my day, diligently prepares for work, take seriously but lightly and easily the master's school, mingles with officemates only inside the office, rarely mingles with classmates in the MA, sometimes bullied but gets even and rarely shed tears, I write blogs, posts songs and diary on www.blogger.com, celebrates life and love with the person whom I love and love me in return, goes home at exact time like a ninja, rarely talk to any friends when I get home, texts those people whom I needed to say something or send quoted messages to those who've sent me some, checks email and multiple social networking accounts, play computer games, appreciates every time I spend with my dad and loves chatting with my mom before she leaves home and before I go to sleep, gives house allowance to my mom and dad, can tell my parents to go to any place I want to but rather I usually choose to stay home, eats in expensive restaurants, invites my parents to go to the mall and shop or sometimes I just shop for them, have several broken and totally damaged relationships, sleeps every Sunday morning, and often dream big things for the future.

Now, I'm already 25 years old- Physically voluptuous but weak, Emotionally semi-stable, intellectually hungry at times, socially unbalanced, economically independent, spiritually starving and dehydrated.

They say that, "Nobody gets everything in life." It's a cliche. But yes, thinking it over, you get some, you lose some... you really can't have everything!!! (take note of the 3 exclamation points!)

With all the changes and turnovers that happened in my life... I believe that I'm still the same person. Though I lost and gained some things... I'm still the sweet, bubbly, who fights for what I know is right, the moody one at times, the most appreciative, the dependable, the crybaby, the dreamer, the achiever, the good daughter, the good friend, the loyal lover and the one who still highly believes and adores God in spite all the trials.

Time hasn't totally changed me, I'm still me... the me that I love.

1 Missed Call Part 1 and Part II

Carla lend us Raph's DVDs. This is why I was able to watch the film, 'coz I really won't spend money buying horror films which will only terrify me and make me scream.

My dad and I watched these videos on two consecutive Fridays on our Home Theatre.

I find the 1st Part freaky. There were certain scenes that I screamed and held my dad's legs, and he was faking his fear. Watch the trailer:



While, I find the 2nd Part freakier. There were lots of scenes when I screamed at the top of my lungs and held my dad who was also screaming of fear this time. Here, take a glimpse:



Though, both movie parts had terrible endings. Honestly, I didn't get both the endings, both vague and unrealistic.

Oh well, what I enjoyed was the company of my dad. Love Fridays!:p

Friday with Hone

I arrived home at 5:00. Turned the pc on at 6:00. Turned it off at 9:30. Told myself that if I wake up at 1:30, I'll go to La Salle to get an application form for the comprehensive exam but if my sleep and bed pulls me hard, I won't go this afternoon.

So you think, I woke up? Take a guess...

Oh yes, I did, with just 4 hours sleep. I still managed to wake up and curl my hair.

I arrived at 3:30 in La Salle, there was some sort of activity there. When I was there, I didn't worry much about the A(H1N1) cases anymore. I was able to immediately get the application forms that I needed. Plus, I've met and chatted with Khing, my college classmate who works there as an HR Officer.

After that, I dropped off to Michael's work to fetch him so we can do malling and spend time together. We went shopping in Landmark first then we ate dinner. He was so full and content. Though, he didn't completely feel well because he was kinda dizzy. I told him to have an eyesight check-up, maybe, he needed to wear glasses or contacts.

We also saw some of his office mates in his previous work which still happens to be the sister company of the one he's working for now. Though, they've mentioned that they've already resigned. It actually surprised me because I have just seen them three weeks ago and now they've made their decisions.

When we got home, we dropped to her Lola's house so I can pay the item which I've ordered from Sa-i, we also saw Ahia Bhon and Ate Jen there. Then, we also bought a pansit in Pugon.

I love spending time with him, it's the only time I feel human and the only time when I can feel real emotions.

Nature

I arrived at the terminal of jeepney in Guadalupe at around 5:40. I immediately saw a waiting jeepney. Seats infront were still not occupied, so I hurried up to get there to refrain myself from being bumped by other people inside the jeepney and to avoid passing others fare.

When I got in and seated infront, I noticed that the jeepney driver was somehow decent looking. "Oh well, at least", I silently thought. Few minutes later, when everyone's in action, it made me realized that "No matter how you dressed up a jeepney driver, the fact remains that they're still jeepney drivers."

Rough. Rude. Reckless.

Swear to God! I really have nothing against them. It's not my nature to discriminate 'coz I know that all people differ inside. Though, I certainly believed that the "nature" or the "environment greatly affects and creates the personality of people.
