Start of Something New

School is imminent and I'm really excited. You know why?


Well aside from seeing my crush, chitchat with my friends and eventually drowning myself with those hardcore major subjects in Biology, I’ll be getting a brand new ‘activity cycle’. For the past few months, I tried to keep myself busy by indulging on books written by my favorite authors, photoshopping, blogging and web designing. In that way, I won’t be bored on a certain period of time since I am spontaneous. I am also getting tired on listening with the same headlines over and over again, from the anomalies of the government (Con-Asshole), the never-ending saga of Hayden and Katrina, the A(H1N1) Virus and the freaky weather that made some locals confused, whether classes in primary and secondary schools are suspended or not.


I don’t have a choice. Nakababaliw kaya kung pabalik-balik ang mga ginagawa mo. Nakababagot. Shoot.


Today, my latest read was Deception Point by Dan Brown. I already read this book almost four years ago though I just borrowed it from my friend. I think I didn’t finish reading it last time since I have to return it. I already forgot some significant parts and details of this novel. That’s why I bought it the moment I saw it on NBS. Phew. Only one copy left. Same story applies on Michael Crichton’s State of Fear.


And now, I’m broke. I want to buy Neil Gaiman’s American Gods and The Anansi Boys. And oh! I want to buy Robert Ludlum’s Covert-One Series (The Hades Factor, The Cassandra Compact, The Paris Option, The Altman Code, The Lazarus Vendetta, The Moscow Vector, The Arctic Event and The Infinity Affair). Oh! Dan Brown will be having a new novel this year. It will be released this September 15. Interestingly, this novel is going to be the third Robert Langdon book written by Dan Brown.

Okay, I got bored last night and I made something for Tumblr. LSS!

Tumblrific

I have joined Tumblr three days ago and I must say that I really enjoyed that site. I just post/publish anything under the sun. I'm getting weird lately. Kahit ano nalang lumalabas sa utak ko. Well I think Tumblr is the best remedy for this predicament.


Lemme share some cute images from my Tumblr.

I LOVE THIS. Loooool

Courtesy of Nate's sister. Beautiful. The fury of Mother Nature.

WOOHOO! My favorite monster, Domokun! :))

Thesaurus, the geeky dinosaur.

See you on Tumblr!!!

Funny News

Headlines nowadays are becoming funny and eccentric. News such as this in Singapore had made its way to instant fame a few weeks ago: A man’s penis has been literally severed due to a vehicular accident. The reason behind the demise of his manhood? He and his secretary performed oral sex while driving. Karma struck him when he hit on a van and the girl detached his dick from his body. Poor thing. The girl was discovered to have loads of (cum) and blood around her lips. Yuck.


Here’s another one. A woman shot her husband because he fatally shot her chicken in some God-forsaken town northwest of Eugene, Oregon. Police are sure the woman intended to shoot the man because she was pissed when he shot her pet chicken. They filed charges against her for assault. They're not sure whether the man intended to shoot the chicken. No charges were reportedly brought against him. He used a handgun but she pulled out her full-blown rifle in reply. He shot the chicken straight up - from the front. She shot him in the back!


And yesterday, a weird headline had caught my attention. The sexy actress who starred in the famous sex scandal filed a rape case against her fellow star, the pervert, crazy doctor. She claimed that she was raped and she was the victim and the doctor was the bad guy. Errr, girl, how can I assess it as “rape”? Even if I’m not a judge, I won’t consider it as rape. Or should I define rape for you girl? You moaned so loud when the doctor caressed your fake boobs and doing the finger job on your pussy simultaneously. He even licked it when he got bored five minutes later. Uggh. Sorry If I sound obscene on this entry, but I can’t help it. Her claims were funny and out of this world!




The gods, goddesses and demigods must be crazy. Shoot.


Oh yeah, I find Enrile and Pimentel’s word fight on the senate yesterday to be weird too. Tae, para silang mga immature na bata. Ano ba yan. Habang tumatanda, mas lalong naging immature ang pag-uugali. Tsk. >:|

Under the Sun

Lately, I’m getting sick and tired with the news. The sex scandal Dr. Hayden Kho and Katrina Halili isn’t fresh anymore. I’m getting annoyed with it. And yeah, Senator Bong Revilla is a hypocrite. It’s obvious.


Speaking of TV, it’s so sad that all of my favorite TV shows have come to its end. All good things have come to an end. First, it was Amazing Race, and then followed by American Idol. What the heck. So I’m back on surfing the realm of internet but sometimes I find this a boring activity if I visit my favorite sites over and over again. Reading books would be my very last resort if I had done all possible things just to enjoy myself. Category 7 is my latest read. Ooooh, I want to buy Anansi Boys and American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I have to read them before school starts.


So last night was fun. Lyle turned 18 and the party was cool. But we didn’t have a post party affair. All were tired and wanted to go home last night. So I’ll grab pictures from Mon, Von and Mikko. Yey! Grabber on the loose!


God, this is the first summer that I haven’t gone to the beach. Believe it or not, my skin complexion isn’t appropriate for the whole summer break. It seemed that I lived in a landlocked place like the American Midwest. Wait, I have gone to the beach once, last April but it was for my thesis. I think I have mentioned this on my previous entries, but heck, I am still bothered by it.



What else?


Ah! I have to cook for my dinner. Actually, I’m going to cook rice and just order my viand to our local chef. HAHAHA. I'm all alone in the house, you know.



So, how’s your life buddy?




(btw, this is so beautiful.)

Reality Check

Ah yes. The reality shows that I’ve been watching since Day One had finally come to its end. First on the line was The Amazing Race (Season 14). I didn’t expect that the challenges were that short but I really think that carrying a hundred forty pound of pig in relatively long distance is a tough task. Also, I did expect that the final task would be a puzzle, like remembering all those tasks, road blocks, and detours from the first leg to the latest.


Margie and Luke may have won the million bucks only if Luke didn’t commit a crucial mistake on the last two surf boards. Plus, I think his mind went into a bedlam state when he saw the arrival of Tammy and Victor. Then again, the former NFL cheerleaders, Jaime and Cara were STILL very unlucky on choosing their cab driver.


To conclude the fourteenth season of the race, Tammy and Victor won the million dollars, followed by the aggressive Jaime and Cara and the last but not the least, the first deaf racer of this season, the mother and son tandem, Margie and Luke.

As what the previous seasons have shown on TV, the eliminated racers will come to the top three teams and give them hugs and kisses, whether if it’s genuine or not. But the important thing is Tammy and Victor deserved to win the million dollars. Woohoo! Hurray for the first Asian team to win the award winning reality show, The Amazing Race.


Tune in for the fifteenth season of The Amazing Race. I think they have started filming the race already or they already have finalized the final set of eleven teams. CBS will air the latest season this fall or winter.



Next week, it’s going to be the season finale of American Idol. Ooooh yeah. May the best man win.

Wait…Did I say “man”?!

Movie Review: T2 (Pssssst)

“Sabihin mo sa akin, sino sila?” “MGA ENGKANTO!” “Pssst!”
---

I always hear this trailer on TV. Directed by the talented Chito S. Roño, this horror flick reflects on to Filipino’s culture and ingenuity. It shows how artistic and how imaginative Filipinos are when it comes to literature, particularly when we delve on different classical folklores and tales. Some of which may be true base on eyewitnesses’ accounts while some are just impossible to believe at.


The story revolves only to the two main characters with a few minor characters that add color to the storyline. I think it was a great idea to focus only on to the main characters since people won’t be confused while watching flick. With a few touches of colorful flashbacks from the main character, I think the storyline wasn’t bad at all. Another compelling thing about the movie is the cinematography and the visual effects. I really commend the “rat” special effects because I thought it was real. I had goose bumps, upon seeing those millions of rats crawling on Maricel Soriano’s body.


Overall, the movie wasn’t that SCARY, but rather what made this movie scary were numerous “surprising scenes”- scenes that intentionally focus on one character and then all of the sudden, another character of the movie appears on the screen accompanied by a frightening sound. Speaking of the characters of the movie, I thought of the acting to be good and natural. Maricel Soriano is still the Diamond Star. Mika dela Cruz is going to be the most promising young actress of the Philippine television in the near future. Elias’ (Eric Fructuoso) character is funny. All other characters portrayed their roles well, at least.


I consider this as a true horror movie because:

One, real horror movies do not need knives, chainsaws, and other scary thingamajigs.

Two, real horror movies do not need to have flying decapitated heads, mutilated fingers and toes or raging rivers of blood.

Third, real horror movies do not need to have sex scenes before the character dies from a morbid death.

Well, just sharing my insights about it.



Feng Shui was scary, Sukob was predictable yet creative and T2 was surreal. Kudos to the production team of Direk Chito S. Roño!


“I do believe in engkantos, I do, I do!”

Of being a Madcap

If you’re a KEEN observer, you might have noticed that I keep on posting serious blog entries. I’m sick and tired of being serious. This is so not me. Whatever! My wackiness had been subjected to hibernation for a month already. Yikes. Though being serious can be beneficial sometimes since I can concentrate a LOT of things (when I say LOT, it deals with MILLIONS of things). But no, being serious is the most boring thing in man’s life (SHOCKS-UUUHHHH)! Lol. So I’ll probably write anything under the sun. Forgive me if I’m not coherent in this entry. But who cares, right? Haha.

Yesterday was the longest day of my life. Wanna know the reason? I DIDN’T SLEEP FOR MORE THAN 24 HOURS, thanks to our wonderful report on Genetic Landscape of Africa and the movement of the Y chromosome by the haplogroup E-M78 to Europe. I didn’t expect that I would complete that extraordinary feat. I think it was a triumph since I’m the type of person who really loves to sleep. I think fretfulness is more effective on fighting against bleariness than caffeine. Actually, caffeine relaxes my mind and even kindles me to sleep. Okay, good thing the report was around noon. At around four in the afternoon, I decided not to attend my Soccer class since it would be a crazy idea. I haven’t had any sleep for more than twenty four hours and it would be surprising if I still have an ample amount of adenosine triphosphate for running, kicking and screaming. Nah, being an audience is cool, I mean seeing those classmates of mine running, and screaming and kicking like wild hyenas in the wilderness with all the sweat pouring almost every significant parts of the body. And yes, girls are really curious about the feeling if our balls were being squashed by a soccer ball. Hmmm, it’s the most painful pain in man’s life, for Christ’s sake. You can’t walk properly if you have squashed balls. HAHAHAHA. But hell, it’s true. But anyway, that’s not my concern since so far, my balls weren’t accidentally crushed and kicked by my teammates. Thank God. By the time I went home at around 7.30pm, I changed my clothes, brushed my teeth and went to an eternal sleep that lasts for at least 13 hours. Imagine, 13 hours of undisturbed sleep.


Oh yes, the AMERICAN IDOL CRAZE IS BACK. Too bad I didn’t watch last night’s episode. Siiiigh. Blame Genetics for that ordeal. HAHAHA. But I’ll watch the replay on it this Saturday and Sunday. I have read some spoilers regarding to the final list of the TOP 12. I heard that Anoop Dog-in-the-House managed to be on the Top 12. Here are my top three favorites and I’m rooting for them to be the next American Idol, well either of the three.

(L-R): Allison Iraheta, Kris Allen and Anoop Desai

Danny Gokey and Adam Lambert are overqualified for this show. HAHAHAHA. But yeah, I like them too. It would be rather nice if Anoop will sing JAI HO in the ensuing episodes. Now that’s a crazy maneuver. Lol. But who knows, right? Maybe he’ll catch the attention not just America but to his fellow Indians. Lol. So let’s watch for the subsequent episodes. Haha.


BTW, guess what time did I take this photo. 5.30pm? 6.00pm? Naaah. Believe it or not, I took this picture at around 1.30 pm this afternoon. Good thing I only have one class today, which is Biochemistry. We are already through in Visual Communication and Invertebrate Zoology Lab. I don’t want my fragile self to be soaked in heavy rain water. After 10 minutes of taking this picture, it started to rain. Today, it’s raining cats and dogs.

So next week, I won’t be reporting in Ecology and Genetics so I guess I have an ample time to study for my third long exam in Biochemistry. Oh yes, at least lessons were a little bit easier to decipher and understand. Fats are easier than the pesky carbs.

Oh yeah, The Ting Tings sensation is starting to invade my psyche. HAHAHA. I just love them. Shut Up and Let Me Go is very funny and had a catchy tune. Great DJ is awesome and That’s Not My Name is very flirtatious. HAHAHAHA. I so love them.

So basically these are my plans for tonight:

1. Chat with my friends
2. Create some tags on facebook
3. WATCH AMERICAN IDOL. Definitely. I won’t afford on missing tonight’s episode. Grrr.
4. Communicate with _________. BLEH. :P
5. Watch Air Crash Investigation (National Geographic) on YouTube.
6. Read Paul J. McAuley’s Fairyland
7. And… Change my theme in Multiply. LOL

I also plan not to shave for at least one week. BUT ACKKKK! I don’t have plans to look like a modern caveman. Sheesh.

Talking about Fairyland, I’m starting to regret of buying that book in the first place. Okay, I really love sci-fi novels. But this sci-fi novel is way different to that of Michael Crichton’s. While reading the lines of this book, it creates a tight aura that surrounds my soul. I don’t feel reading this book anymore. No. I bought this with my own money and I SHOULD finish this, even if I didn’t like the story. Sigh. I’m stuck in the middle part of the book. But I’m still hoping that the plot would somehow turn into a tragic twist. What I don’t like in this book is it has lots of characters to remember and the plot seems to be the most complex one since I started reading novels at a tender age of 8. I just want to read Series of Unfortunate Events. I have downloaded the thirteen (or 14? Correct me if I’m wrong, hehe) Ebooks of it last month. Sigh


I think this is already long and exaggerated. Well, the latter one was only a joke.

Frustrations and Ludicrousness

I really really really REAAALLLLLYYYYY (take note of the emphasis) hate myself when it comes to remembering even the smallest details of a certain exam. Like, whenever I remember it, I feel the deepest frustrations on to me for either not having the right answer or simply just forgetting the simplest term. Ironically, I usually answer the hardest question correctly and the easiest one would be my mistake.

A dim-witted gaffe…

I wish that I’ll forget the exam questions right after I passed the paper and just live in a normal life. Until now, I am really bothered by it.

So much for that. I know I can’t amend my life unless a brilliant Physicist will invent a time machine.


You see? Life is an irreversible process. Once you have done a thing, say a mistake, you must live by it and take it as a significant part of your life. Wait. I shouldn’t use YOUR. This applies on to me, right now.

And I’m on the verge of having an emotional outbreak. Mine is unique though. When I have an emotional outbreak, I just stare in the blank wall for at least three hours and I don’t think anything else except to breathe and blink.

I know it’s a crazy idea but true enough it’s an effective way…

TO BE INSANE!

You may ask why I’m wasting my time in the internet doing this entry. Apparently, we aren’t obliged to just read, study, read, study then the cycle repeats all over again. Our brain would eventually get bored with this cycle.

The perfect idea is this: dancing and singing while studying will make your brain cells kicking and alive.


Smile. Life is a wonderful story to tell.

And I’m not telling about something to someone. And that someone is a no one. And no one is allowed to ask. And now I’ll ask you one thing: Did you ever ask the question why I’m wasting my time in the cyberspace?

Provide me an answer and I’ll provide you with millions of questions about life.

And life is like a fairytale. And a fairytale is a wonderful story to tell. So as life. And my life is becoming boring. And boring sponges live under the deep blue sea. And I can’t see a bright day ahead. And the bright light is shining through my way.

Am I in heaven or in my dog’s haven? I wasn’t given a time to think about this way. And this is not the right way to exercise my brain. My brain is still in normal condition. And normal isn’t normal at all.

The world is full of something which someone’s getting on to it.


Bring it on.
Damn it.


And my insights about life are getting unsubstantiated.
I am getting absurd.
PERIOD.

OPTIMISM and AUTISM

"To be a successful biologist, one must know how to DRAW."

God. My hands were all tired after three grueling hours of drawing circles, then various regular shapes of a plant's cross section of roots, leaves and stem. Mind you, those freaking circles drove me crazy. My hands were shaking but it was a big accomplishment though.

Yeahyeah. So last Monday, I went to school to register for my subjects next semester. So after a day or two of weariness and anxiety, I had finalized my schedule for the next sem. So, here it is:

TUESDAY'S DEADLY and THURSDAY'S NOT. STILL, no Mondays. Weehah.

Maybe I'll take an advance class in Statistics and History this SUMMER.

Last Monday, we went to People's Park and you guessed it right, we enjoyed the newly built park. I uploaded tons of pictures in my album so if you're curious about our wackiest adventure so far, just browse my photo album. Hehe. :))

TUESDAY. We had a surprise quiz in our Bio 3 Lab. Actually, it was a surprise as well as an interactive quiz. First we dissected a frog, then after which, we cut and opened her gut (since the frog was female) and identified the different parts of the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM. I don't find it yucky or eeky, it's just, I'm immune with these gooey stuffs. Haha. So, I got a perfect ten , but I almost got one mistake because I was quite confused with the pancreas and the eggs. They were both yellow. ♫ LOOK AT THE STARS, THEY'RE SHINING ON YOU .. COZ THEY WERE ALL YELLOW ♫. Waaa. SABAW NANAMAN ako. Whatever.

MIND YOU, her heart was still beating while we conducted an "academic operation" to her digestive system.

And her lungs were inflated. Kawawa. But we have to do this.

At that day, Joie had an LSS AGAIN - Rihanna's PLEASE DON'T STOP THE MUSIC. Hahaha. I just remembered Kim's ESnips Music Player on his blog. His player had a cool baby chick on it and danced like a funny duckling, yung tipong pina EGYPTIAN dance step ang ulo. Bwahaha. So, I introduced that dance step to Joie and Mark. We were all like ducklings at that moment, well hanggang ngayon. Hahaha.


WEDNESDAY. As usual. I woke up LATE, again. I didn't woke up with my alarm (palibasa ang alarm tone ko is FAIRYTALE by ENYA). Naku. Instead I was awaken by mom's CREEPY voice.

"KUUUUYYY, quarter to eight na, oh ano, may balak ka pang pumunta ng UP?"

Waaa. It's WEDNESDAY and first period ko is CHEM 17, 8:30 am! Waaa. So I didn't ate breakfast, just drank my cold frappe, took a bath, tapos got dressed with my PE uniform then off I went to CSM. I arrived five minutes before the time. HECK. Our teacher was ALSO LATE. We waited for 15 minutes before we could finally disperse outside room 113. It was 14 minutes after 8:30 am. Sheara, Ralph and Mark can't hardly wait so they went outside the room. Minutes later, they went back to the room, panting as if they were chased by a wild animal. Yun pala, paparating na pala ang wild animal sa room. Hahaha. So we continued the reports, lectures, just like an ordinary Chem lecture.

In our lab, I'm not used to Alberto's approach. Good thing for those who experienced and got immune with his approach for the whole semester. Yuri, Sheara, Cha, Joie, and Mikko were all immune by his way of teaching. I found it weird since he talked in a BRITISH accent just for FUN. Waaa. Natawa nalang ako kahit I found it corny and annoying. BWAHAHA. Peace Alberto Baloney. Hahaha. =))

Today's ASH WEDNESDAY but this idea didn't came across to my subconscious mind, that is to attend the ASH WEDNESDAY Mass. My classmates invited me and since it's still 4pm, and we're just a mile away from Immaculate Conception Parish, I decided to attend the Eucharistic Celebration of the Ash Wednesday.

♫ WE RISE AGAIN FROM ASHES ♫

FROM NOW ON, BAWAL NA ANG PORK, BAWAL NA ANG BEANS, BAWAL NANG KUMAIN. Waaa. Joke lang. Nangangayat na ako 'di pa ako kakain. But other forms of sacrifice will do. As long as you'll do some penance in this Lenten Season.

Tomorrow's Thursday. Another wonderful lesson in Trigonometry (yihee), Long Quiz in Bio 3 Lab, which fortunately memorized ko na ang parts ng vertebrates, pelvic girdle, pectoral girdle and anterior limb ng frog. Hahaha. I just love it.

BTW. I found this wonderful song entitled You Had a Bad Day by Daniel Powter. Actually, it's one of the OST song in the movie ALVIN and THE CHIPMUNKS. TAKTE! Di pa nanglibre si Chipmunk Kristalala para sa movie-ng to. Oh well. I'll just buy a dvd copy of this diminutive movie.

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the brink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Wee. I just loved this song. Kanta 'to ng mga OPTIMISTIC na AUTISTIC. Hahaha. Lol. I'll just leave you this message. I won't tell when and where I took this pic. PEACE OUT. Hehehe :D

PseudoBUSY

The second round of the bloodshed had finally ended around 11 am of January 26, 2008. Weee. That day was our second long exam in Chem17 Lec. Fortunately it was an EASY exam. I wonder kung ano ang nakain ng Chem teacher [I shouldn't call him Professor since he still have to take his masteral this June] because he's fond of making DIFFICULT long exams. Well, the memories of Chem16 Lec still haunts me every now and then. Okay corny na 'to, but it's true. The fact that I got a 2.25 grade in Chem 16 was a some sort of a chamba-ish moment. Nabawi ko lang yan sa Lab grade ko, kaya nagkaganoon. Hahay.

Anyhow.

After that exam, I immediately went home together with Inna, Van and July. But for the others, they intruded Marky's crib in Laz Terrazas (a plush and luxurious village located on the steep hills of Ma-a). Favorite hobby na ata namin to - CRIB HOPPING. Unfortunately, I didn't join them since I'm so tired and I need to SLEEP.

When they arrived at Mark's place, guess what, NATULOG lang din sila (some of them watched TV)! Ang iba natulog sa comfy and luxurious couch nila (like Yuri) and for some, wala nang arte, humiga na sa carpet, kumuha ng ilang pillows and POOF, they snored in their respective places in no time. Here are some revealing evidences na natulog sila like SLEEPING BEAUTY. Special thanks to JOIE SHEEN BASTIAN - one of the pioneering paparazzi of Shakira Shabing for the pictures. Naks.

Wow. Nagbibeauty rest si Madame Sha-bing. Hahaha. Biro lang Yuri.

Grabeh. Binabaha na ang den nang dahil sa laway niyo! Bwhahaha :D

Hindi po ito White Lady. Si Sheara po ito. Hahaha :D

See? I told you. If I just didn't fought my mom hours before the exam, I should be there. Eh kaso, wala ako sa mood nung morning na yun because of STRESS, ayun! Di tuloy ako binigyan ng BAON ni MAMA! Huhuhuh. Sayang. 100 pa naman nyun. Hahay. That's life. Bweset.

Oh, Last Friday, I had this weird adventure. And it feels like I'm still in highschool. It goes like this. I didn't wore the appropriate PE shirt since I thought that I wouldn't attend my PE class. We were dismissed EARLY in our Chem 17 Lab, so early that we went to DHK Building (Department of Human Kinetics, hindi na HKC) at around 12 noon and played Table Tennis. I used my cellphone as the source of music (Nokia 6300). My PE teacher saw it and he was amazed. He asked me for the price and etc. The moment he checked the attendance, he warned me about my shirt. If I didn't changed it to pure white or any UP white shirt, he'll confiscate my cellphone. I know it's a joke but natakot ako dun. Praning na kasi because nung highschool ako, teachers there were fond of confiscating cellphones, iPods and other digital thingamajigs. It's like parang ngayon lang sila nakakita ng cyber doohickeys. Ooops. I'm talking too much. So right after the attendance, I sneaked out of the room and headed straight to Ate Malou's place para kunin ang mga finotocopy ko sa Chem. Unfortunately, hindi kinaya ang pagfotocopy ng Chang ni Ai2x (or tinatamad lang sila?!). Keshyo raw hindi klaro eh di na nila pinatuloy ang kanilang trabaho. Ugh, The nerve!

[Chang - Chemistry book worth 2000 pesos.]

So I hailed a jeepney and went straight to Kanluran (CSM - College of Science and Mathematics). And parang minalas ako, out of order pala ang photocopier doon. Haay naku. So I waited for the other block to be dismissed in their Chem17 Lab para may makasabay ako pauwi. On our way home, I gave the book to Mark and he'll return it to Ai2x.

Haay. Whattafriday.

BTW, as I wrote (with the help of the keyboard, not a pen) this blog, biglang bumukas ang pintuan ng kwarto ko, and it reminds me of CHELSEA. I used to love this name (Ugh. Highschool memories). So cute and pretty - appropriate and fit for a pretty princess, until Mamatay ka sa Sindak ni Barbara changed my perception with this name. Haay naku. Chelsea's funnier (and admittedly creepier) than Chaka Doll. Chaka Doll's cheap. Bwahahaha. :)) And Chelsea used to be a pretty doll until minalas lang siya because of a life long curse. Weh. Di nga.

YES. Finally. AFTER COUNTLESS YEARS OF SEARCHING AND RUMAGGING LIMEWIRE, I finally found this song. I knew the lyrics and the melody but I'm clueless with its title.

"I love you always forever
Near or far, closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you"

Yes! It was entitled I LOVE YOU ALWAYS TOGETHER by Donna Lewis. Feel ko nasa dagat ako whenever I hear this song.

Oh yeah. BTW. I just remembered this. I just saw the University calendar and by February 4-8, it would be our PRE-REGISTRATION WEEK. Ang bilis ng panahon. Second Year College na ako. YIKES. Well, I'm gonna enlist myself to my future subjects:

Bio 70 (Earth Science and Process) ahhww, too bad hindi na si DADDY BASTIAN ang teacher, si Ma'am Talde na, well according to DADDY BASTIAN'S daughter, Joie Sheen.
Bot 3 Lec (Intermediate Botany) yikes. Dr. Novero again.
Bot 3 Lab (Intermediate Botany Lab)
Chem 31 (Elem. Organic Chem) and who knows? Maybe yung bagong teacher from Food Sci and Chem Department. Sana bago. Huwag yung tipong "comeback tandem" na prof.
Chem 31.1 (Elem. Organic Chem Lab)
MCB 1 Lec (General Microbiology) Sabi nila, babalik ang terror prof ng microbio ng UP. And she's fond of giving a 3.0 grade, despite your greatest effort in mcb. I just hope it would STILL be Ma'am Pakdat or Ma'am Vernaiz. Aanhin pa ba ang UNO kung TRES ang USO. yahyah. Whatever.
MCB 1 Lab.
Phys 3 (General Physics 1) Hahay. I just hope this subject would be offered this SUMMER. And I don't want Engr. Acosta to be the teacher of this subject.

and 1 GE subject. Sana MST6 - Biodiversity Challenge. Teacher namin, ang ex-DEAN ng CSM! Weee. Ang pinakaEMO na DEAN sa buong UP System! Weehah.

Oh yeah. We still had one exam left for this week, and that is Bio 3 Lab. It's a moving exam, actually and all we need was to memorize each parts of organisms from Eukaryotic bacteria, prokaryotes, fungis, plants and animals. Haay.

This is the LIFE of an iskolar ng BAYAN. Bow.

Round One - FIGHT

Distant rumble of thunder could be heard from an approaching cumulonimbus clouds located at North of East. Today's Friday and STILL I shouldn't relax 'coz we will have a make-up class or lecture in our Chem 17 lec tomorrow. It sucks big time since I want to have an at least 16 hours of deep slumber for even just ONE DAY. I really need to sleep. LOTS AND LOTS OF SLEEP! But wait, I shouldn't. I should drink more and more and more COFFEE to compromise the second part of the hell week. Whatever.

I had gone through series of dilemmas, surging mood swings and emotions and grueling sleep deprivation.

So okay. The First Round of the infamous Bloodshed week had officially ended its term yesterday afternoon. Cheers. Well, as of today, I only acquired one result from our scheduled exams this week. First, I got a good 106.5/120 score in our Chem 17 Lab. 88.75%'s not bad. :)) Congrats to Mikko for making it to the top. He got an almost perfect score, which is 116/120. Wow! Waaa. Ba't mo narinig ang RESONANCE ni Sheara? To think I sat near the door, where you overheard Sheara's noisy conversation with YURI. Uggh. I need to fix my ears. What if mag e-ENT nalang ako instead of Neurology? Naks. It's quite ironic kung mag i-ENT ako. Hahaha.

And I'm quite anxious to the result of my Comm 3 long exam. May God bless my soul. Whoever's the highest should TREAT US big Chupachups LOLLIPOP. Yung tag trenta sa convenience ha! Wag yung tag-piso from Ate Sabing's :)).

Well, if you had read my previous post, entitled YELLOW SUBMARINE you'll wonder if I found the yellow chemistry lab report. YES. You've heard me. I FOUND IT IN THE LIBRARY. Well it goes like this.

When the clock struck at 1000 hour, I immediately flew to the Library hoping that I could still locate it. So I went inside the library, and I first went to the shelves where people place there bags and folders before entering the main library. I frantically rummaged through the long shelves and I failed to locate it. So I went to the other side of the library and asked the Librarian. She didn't knew if a yellow thing notebook was left in the library last Wednesday afternoon. So I went back to the shelves and I felt hopeless and desperate at that time.

So I thought of the the third and final plan if ever I can't locate the yellow notebook - to accept that I'm an ass, an idiot ass.

I went to the guard and desperately asked if he saw anything, again the yellow notebook. He just gave a disapproving nod in front of my weary and anxious stricken face. So I frenetically went back to the Chem Laboratory and remained silent for almost 15 minutes. I felt like parang namatayan ako ng isang miyembro ng mahal ko sa buhay. Grabe. During the first part of the expeiment, I went back to the library and asked the "other librarian". I asked:

"Uhm, excuse me kuya, may nakita po kayong yellow na filler ng binder na may title na chem 17 Lab Even numbered reports tas maninpis lang po siya??" (I just gave him the exact details due to desperation).

He just gave me a SMILE, opened his DRAWER and withdrew something that's YELLOWISH. Yes, it was the thing that I desperately want to hold since yesterday. It cost almost half of my life, literally. He even joked at me: "MAY BAYAD TO HA? Hehehehe". So I gave him a million thank yous, salamats, arigatos, kansamedas and etc.

YES. I found it. I was so happy that I sang a happy tune for almost an hour during our eighth experiment. I was relieved when I found it. I was right, it was indeed in the library. I left it last Wednesday UNCONSCIOUSLY.

On Thursday, we didn't have any classes on Nat. Sci 1 and Bio 3 so, I was almost FREE in the whole Thursday afternoon. After we took the exam on Comm.3, we managed to finished the exam in just 10 minutes (kami lang mga Bio students) and according to Princess, one freshman student from BS ABE (Agribusiness Economics) commented on our early departure from room 105. He said, "SHIT MANING MGA BIO UIE!!"

Haahaa. We just laughed at it since the exam was only of true or false and enumeration. If you don't know the answer, then definitely 'di ka talaga maka-answer especially sa enumeration. Sa first part, pwede ka pang manghula since the probability of getting a correct answer is 50%. Hahay. Sana makachamba lang ako. After this, we headed straight to OBLE'S Lovely GARDEN and sat down in the grass (despite its dampness and the abundance of MAKAHIYA GRASS [ouch!]) and made some kwentuhans and laugh trips out there.

We decided na pupunta kami sa McDo at SM but first, we have to give way on Mark, Ralph and Yuri's addiction - TABLE TENNIS. So we acted like an intruders and invaded one class in HKC. So yeah, I didn't played TT since I was not on the mood to play. So we just watched the THREE of them and they just kept on saying this "sirang plaka statement": WAIT LANG, 5 MINUTES LANG!

Huh? 5 minutes? Are you sure Mark? Hahaha. We're actually bored on watching you and all we want to do was to leave the HKC immediately and go to McDo as soon as possible. To answer the nature of boredom, Me, Cha and Sheara took several pictures together with YURI. So here's a sample:

Oh yeah. Yuri, you're a trying hard EMO. Hindi ka bagay. :)) bwaahaha.

We went back to the CHSS building and Sheara noticed that Princess' kissing pig key chain was lost. So she hurriedly went back to the HKC Building. FYI, if you want to go to the HKC (Human Kinetics Center), you need to cross vast and infinite meadows of grass, well similar to the scenes from SPRING WALTZ. Along the way she came across with this certain guy and he's holding the kissing piggy key chain.

Boy (codename: I LOVE YOU SO): Sa iyo to?
Princess: Uhhm. Yes. uie salamat ha! :D

Hahaha. Parang nag-ala SPRING WALTZ ang eksena. UUUY. KILIG. Speaking of Spring Waltz, Spring Waltz is the latest codename of a certain person whom we HATED most in our class. He or She's not our coursemate. Taga ibang course siya but kasabay namin siya sa isang major subject. We just hated him slash her because of a certain reason. CURIOUS? SECREEETO!

Finally, we went to McDo and para makabawi si Mark sa aming paghihintay sa kanya, he bought tons and tons of large fries. WEE.

And we ate and ate and ate until our bottomless stomachs were satisfied.

After McDo, we headed straight to the World of Fun, played some arcade games there, and they even tried the Dance Maniax.

UNEXPECTEDLY, we came across with the former DEAN of CSM - Dean Obsioma! Bwahaha. We just greeted him with hellos and good evenings. Sayang di ako nakapagpicture sa kanya. I consider him as the MOST EMO Dean of UP. Nyahaha.

Next stop, I had to start with the comprehensive Chemistry LAB REPORT due on Wednesday. Exam on Biodiversity and Nat. Sci 1 would be this Tuesday and the 2nd long exam on Math 14 would be this Thursday.

It's going to be a LOOONG WEEK in the next few days. Again and again I would like to splurge myself on cold frappe. So far so good.

And I just hate this when my brother becomes so impatient whenever he wants to use the PC. As if it's an important matter. Sheesh.

The V Doohickey and the S Thingamajig

Warning. This post may not be written in a chronological manner since the author's mind had been entropic since last week.

V for Vendetta. S for Shitlord. Oops.

Well, V stands for Vices and S stands for Studies.

Oh yeah. HELLO PHILIPPINES AND HELLO MILKY WAY! I'm back. It was really a grueling week for me since HELL WEEK officially started last TUESDAY. Haay naku. We had to deal with tremendous workloads and yeah, next week would be bloodier and the week after next week would be the bloodiest, if not mistaken. Imagine next week, we had 4 exams to take and worse, on January 22, Tuesday, we had 3 exams scheduled on this day. Originally, it was only Bio 3 and Nat Sci 1 scheduled for their respective second long exams on this day until nakisinggit ang Math 14 of Sir Tecson. Grrr. Oh well, since lessons in Math 14 were not that hard, so the class opt to have an exam this Tuesday. If we move the exam by next Thursday, then the coverage would be longer. Gulay.

Oh yeah. I usually wake up at 7 am and as the day progressed, I become lazier than the usual day, got up at almost 8 am (everyday my first class is 8.30 am) and shivered whenever I took the shower. It's all because of the DAMN WEATHER. You could always imagine that at 7 am, it's still DARK, cold and yes, you've guessed it right, ang sarap ng feeling mo sa bed and nakatatamad kung bumangon. Hay naku. And I fervently wish that it would not rain every morning since I always took HH (Habal-habal or motorcycle) as my mode of transportation everytime I go to school. I don't want to get WET and WILD when I arrived at school. Sheesh.

As a child, I always ask mom kung kailan na ako pwedeng uminom ng coffee. She ALWAYS replied this statement, all over again: "BASTA, 'pag malaki ka na at may trabaho ka na". I was 4 or 5 years old then when I frequently asked that question. After 13 years, I'm semi independent to CAFFEINE. Yes. I'm still a student studying at the premier AND overrated university of the country, but I constantly drink coffee most especially during our examination week. Caffeine is my best friend whenever I study and answer those tiring assignments. Caffeine accompanies me to success. (Naks). Oh well. I just can't help this. I'm really hooked to CAFFEINE. Naha-high ako whenever maamoy ko ang aroma ng COFFEE. Ahhh. PLEASURE. Caffeine is the safest drug that I've ever known. But to much CAFFEINE in our system is not good. Again, I would like to reiterate that too much is NOT GOOD.

YES. Finally our Bio lab instructors had finalize the destination of our field trip. We'll be having our field trip this February 1-3, 2008 at Marasugan, ComVal Province - a good two-hour "land flight" from the city. YAHOO.

BTW, right at this very moment, mom got pissed with her N73. I don't know. She can't send outgoing SMS to dad. Wait. It's not the phone, it's the NETWORK. Sira ata ang globe ngayon. TOPAK. BALIW. Good thing, I'm a SUN user and it really helps, well if I had extra free text to the other networks. Ouch.

Awww. This is a sad sad sad story. We didn't took our PE class (Table Tennis). We were forced to CUT CLASS since we had an exam in Chem 17 Lab. Yeah, our Lab instructor told us that the schedule for the long exam would be outside the laboratory schedule. Oh well. I could hardly imagine the face of our PE teacher. He may looked like a confused dude because of the unusual attendance. He may scratch his head like a silly cartoon character. Whatever. Good thing, the Chem 17 Lab exam was not that DIFFICULT. Weehah.

Yesterday, Monz complimented me on the way I write on my blog (OOOWS?!). So he suggested me to join YUWEI. YUWEI is a website designed for social networking and small business enterprise. He said that if YUWEI liked your blog, they'll pay you, IN DOLLARS. So I was quite interested and joined YUWEI just 18 hours ago. But I don't have a bank account (I only have a piggy bank account though and that's not counted, hahaha), so I didn't signed up for the payment scheme, I just signed up for the sake that I'm gonna be one of the 900 plus newest members of YUWEI. I'll just think of this. If you're interested, just log on to:

YUWEI'S WEBSITE.

UPCAT results were released unusually EARLY. To those who passed UPCAT, congratulations! And for those who didn't, that's okay. :)). And dun sa mga nakapasa, I would like to encourage you, yes YOU (if you're an UPCAT passer, that is) to study at this overrated university. Nyahaha. It's just like being an iskolar ng bayan is wonderful occurrence in life - a once in a lifetime experience. It could also be a life changing experience. And yeah, don't waste your wonderful student numbers! Sayang. Oh-eight pa naman kayo. I like eight. And 2008 is our centennial celebration. :))

Speaking of centennial celebration, Jai gave me a suggestion to try another song regarding the centennial celebration of UP. It's from the UPLB music fest and it goes like this: (again, please click the play button since I didn't activate the autoplay. Thanks.)

I find "UP ANG GALING MO" a good song but I find "ISANG DAAN" better than the former. It's just like the former's message was quite self-centered (peace, no offense) like we're the best among the rest, etc., (which is TRUE :p), but the latter's message was simple yet outstanding. It showed about the progress of UP and how did UP molded it's students as one of the most outstanding and brilliant citizens of the country as time goes by. Somehow, the former had an intense LSS FACTOR while the latter one's quite feeble. Anyhow, I posted the lyrics of ISANG DAAN in one of my contents, I think sa VIDEO ata or sa LINKS. whatever.

AY NAKU. SABAW HAW HAW KARABAW!

May gagawin pa ako ngayong gabi.

Study for Bio 3 Lab exercise 5-6. QUIZ.
Study for Comm 3 for the midterm exam. Which I haven't started even one-eighth of it. Oops.
Answer the questions of our seventh experiment in our Chem 17 Lab.

Haay. tatlo lang pala. Kaunti lang to. Isang daan tungo sa karunungan. Isang daan tungo sa madugong labanan ng sariling utak at ng mga bluebooks. Aycaramba.

To BLOG or not to BLOG

8.32 pm - 75% TAGALOG, 25%

First time.

I'm DEAD. Yes. Patay na ako. Patay in a sense hindi ko na alam kung ano ang gagawin ko. Should I study or not? Papasok pa ng school or mag LOA nalang at sa following semester nalang ako uli papasok sa UP. Haay. Ano ba?!

Well, as usual, 8.30 am ang klase ko kanina at Math 14 pa. Naah. When I entered the room, ABA-ABA! Agad naman akong sinalubong ng mga shocking revelations, "HOOOY REEEENZ! (insert hyper mood HERE) Alam mo ba? May nalimutan tayong assignment."

Napaisip tuloy ako. HUWAAAAAT?! (Sabay lingon sa kausap, with pa-slow-mo effect :p) Eh, natapos ko naman din ang Bio 3, tapos, AH! Pati ang Chem 17 prelab. Ano pala kulang natin?

Then ayon, nalimutan ko nga. NALIMUTAN ko na may assignment pala kami sa Comm.3 (AH3)!! Ay CARAMBA! Arrghh. Dalawa ang assignment namin. Yung isa, written, about the pros and cons of being multilingualism, bilingualism and its positive and negative effects to Filipinos pati make your own presentation showing bilingualism and multilingualism. Aba-aba. So nagbrainwash kaming mag-grupo. Una, kami nila Joie, Cha and Sheara. Then kinombine nalang din ang group ni Mikko, Mark, Ralph, Yuri at Princess. Haay naku. Adlib nalang kung adlib.

So dumating ang 8:45 am and take note, university rule namin, if 15 minutes late ang teacher, may right na kami na umalis sa classroom. So ayun, akala namin wala nanamang Math 14 for the second time in a row. But I was wrong. Indeed, may math nga kami. May formal lecture na si Sir Tecson. Oh well papel. Life must go on. Ayun, di pala siya nag formal lesson, he just gave the result of our first long exam. Medyo masaya ako coz nasali ako sa top scorers sa class namin, 4th ako, 84%. Haay naku. And ang mga mali ko? puros katangahan. SHEER stupidity. Tanga. tanga. CARELESS. Careless whisper, carefree pantyliner, WHATEVER.

So after ng Math Class namin, we headed straight on to our Bio 3 Laboratory room and as usual, we just compiled our activity sheets, kami ni Brigz nagpapakopya sa mga nais mangopya ng mga sagot at drawings (Iba na ang hindi nagcacram haahaa lol). And then we didn't have a lesson again sa LAB, we just discussed about our upcoming FIELD TRIP.

AND TAKE NOTE, hindi pala kami sa SAMAL ISLAND, kundi sa CAMIGUIN ISLAND!
Wooohooo! :D Camiguin, here we come!

Yes Galus galus. I'm really excited. Can you feel the beat Chickie??

Okay okay. So enough of that stupid excitement. First I was quite hesitant with the place because first of all, we should deal with the tremendous expenses - from traspo, to food, and of course sa PASTEL. hahah. Lol. I asked my lab teacher and more or less, 2,000 pesos ang siguradong magagastos namin EACH. Though, ang 2,000, lahat na yan. May matira pa nga diyan eh. So ayun, I asked my mom kanina the moment I arrived at home, mga 6.00 pm. Then pumayag na rin siya, siyempre wala siyang choice, eh part naman siya ng 9th lab experiment namin. And this was the best STATEMENT na narinig ko from mama:

TOTAL malaki ka naman, so papayagan na kita.

O MAY GAD. Yes. Sa wakas. Independence. The Emancipation of the Walking Toothpick ika nga. Ewan ko lang kung ano ang magiging statement ni papa since he's on Butuan right now, I think. Tapos my mom said pag 15, ipaglalaan na niya ang two thousand. YEHEY. So, pumayag na nga siya.

OKAY after ng Bio 3 Lab, kumain kami ng lunch, then after niyan, tumambay kami sa Bio 3 Lec room namin, for almost an hour. Maaga kasi kami dinismiss sa Bio 3 Lab. So ayun, laughtrip, si Angelyn, gumawa ng cast ng MAMATAY SA SINDAK SI BARBIE, tapos si Leizel, siya si CHELSEA, tapos ako ang voice over ni CHELSEA. HAHAHA.

Tapos ang food lover na si YURI (cge na nga, FOOD EXPERT), SHAKIRA SABING na name niya. HAHAHAHA. Then our laughter was temporarily suspended when Dr. Anabelle Novero, Ph.D arrived in our classroom, with her IBM laptop and her trusty brown envelope. Naku naman. The moment of truth - ibibigay na ang results ng 1st long exam namin sa Bio 3 Lec.

PATAY ako. I'm dead. Mag harakiri nalang ako. Ugh. Crap. Suicide are just for big-assed losers. May word ba na assed? Naku. Ang noun naging verb. Who cares. Okay back to the topic. Since Sunday night, I felt a bad omen regarding my result in Bio 3 Lec. Bagsak ako. I failed. Lagpak.

YES. I was right. Definitely right. Nahiya tuloy ako. Asar! bagsak nga. Walo lang ang nakapasa. I only got 52%! Arrghh. Okay lang, di ko naman sineryoso ang pag-aral ko sa Bio 3 since nung time na yun, malapit na Christmas break and yung weekend, mas pinili ko pang manood ng STARDUST and THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW than studying. Tapos, I crammed pa naman the day before exam. Nakakatuwa maglecture si Prof. Novee. Haha. Wala lang. Basta. No further explanation needed. Secret na namin yun. Hahaha lol. =))

Oh yeah, may presentation pa kami sa Comm. 3 (AH3), so ayun, laugh trip as usual at biglang tumilapon ang wall clock sa room namin at muntik nang matamaan si SIR DENNIS. ABA! Parang eksena sa PATAYIN SA SINDAK SI BARBARA, just replace Barbara to DENNIS! HAHA lol.

Then, we had our last class for the day, which is Nat. Sci 1.

So I got my four results of my long exams from different subjects and three out of four subjects, pasa, and BIO pa ang binagsak. Naku.

Sa Nat. Sci 1 - 91,
Sa Math 14 - 84,
sa Chem 17 - 75,
then Bio 3 - 52.

Sounds low kung if we compare this to my highschool standing, but hell! ANG HIRAP maka 80 pataas sa LONG EXAM, at sa Chem/Bio maka 75 and above ka na sa long exam, INSTANT CELEBRITY KA NA! Hahay. UP kasi.

So bukas wala kaming klase sa Chem 17 Lec because aatend kami ng isang forum about PHYSICS and aba! Kano ang maglelecture, live via videophone pa! Sosyal. Part to ng Centennial Celebration ng UP!

Oh, BTW, I just realized that our dining table looked like a traffic light. Haay. Parang nag ALA-MMDA ang dining room namin.

STOP. LOOK and LISTEN! Kainan NA!

Hindi ko pa rin narereceive ang PDF file from Prof. Novee. Ay naku. PASAWAY. Lecture niya yun and naka PDF file pa talaga presentation niya. WOW.

So ayun. I did enjoyed this post since nonstop ang kamay ko sa keyboard. Dere-derecho. Kaya paalala lang kaibigian, maaring may na-misspelled ako na words jan, kaya pagpasensyahan niyo nah. First time ata to na dominant ang TAGALOG sa post ko since October 2006! Hahaha lol.

Til then. Au revoir. At biglang bumawi sa FRENCH.

9.36 pm

The PIG'S remaining DAYS

The end is near.

It's like saying goodbye to Piglet, Babes, the three little pigs, PEGGY, idig-idig [my alleged pet pig when I was young], BABOY and alike.

The end is near.

I've finally finished and completed the arduous yet exciting Bio 3 (Biodiversity) Lab Reports. I've finished not just one lab exercise, but three life-long exercises. I am half through with my heavy home works and school works. I can now concentrate with my upcoming Chemistry long quiz.

I am almost through.

My friend as well as my classmate, July, stated that these home works almost killed her festive mood in today’s holiday season. I agree with her. I second the motion.

My friend Geva, a BACA [Bachelor of Arts in Communication Arts] student said that she didn’t know how to start her midterm projects as school resumes this January 3, 2008.

Inna gave a comment on one of my friendster account. She said that it’s quite difficult to locate those pesky answers on our lab reports in Bio 3.

My good old pal Chippy AKA Kim [Krista] didn’t have plans to study for her upcoming long exams in Microbiology and Animal Science.

Fred Egg had tremendous assignments on his SocSci subjects.

Neil would only worry if it is January 2, 2008. For now, he’s gonna enjoy the festive spirit of the yuletide season.

Life is always difficult. You should deal with it.

While I was busy on answering my Bio 3 Lab reports, Carmi texted me that we should have some quality time together with my barkada at the mall (G-mall). Uggh, again?! So we finalized our plans by midnight.

Life is short and full of surprises.

I’m still suffering with my severe flu and my head aches so bad when night struck. I drank two medicine tablets and good thing my head ache went off. Eventually, mom gave me a cool massage on my forehead, head, back and chest. She surprised me.

Life is so sweet and wonderful.

I crave for fruitcakes. My friends find me weird for I find fruitcakes delicious.

Life is a sophisticated thing. Life is WEIRD.

I’m quite anxious with the upcoming year, which is the year 2008. I really don’t know what would be my fate in the next five days.

Destiny shall linger upon one’s life. It is a mysterious paradigm.

I’m going to sleep early. I’m going to meet my old friends within the next 10 hours.

Life is sweet, delicate and a wonderful gift from GOD. Five jittery days before 2008 !!!
