Last Post Before New Year.





I know, I know. It's been quite a while since I last posted an entry. Hey...it's not my fault. I've been having a lot of visits from relatives and friends. There's no time to really post an entry. Sorry. Hehehe...

Oh yes, I made a video once again. It's another holiday video. Hehe...this time, it's for the Fazon family. Since the Franciscos have one, the Fazons should have one as well. Hahaha!

2006.
Memories.
I laughed.
I cried.
I went through a lot.

So many experiences the past year. There are certainly moments that I just want to hide from the rest of the world. Of course, more of the experiences I've gone through, I share with others...either through this blog or through hanging out with friends or through texting them. I'd say, this was a good year. Despite all the hardships, all the tears shed, all the illness...it's been one good year.

I had a feeling it would be.

When I turned 20, I imagined the beginning of my adulthood as something I would always look forward to. Indeed, it was. Being a student-slash-editor, I've had my share of ups and downs. Being a daughter and a sister, I've had my share of laughter and tears. As a 20-year-old living her life to the fullest, I've had my share of joy and sorrow.

It's definitely a year to remember.

One Day to Go.

Yes, one more day to go and it's Christmas Day. Oh, how time flies so fast. This Christmas, I only have one wish. That is...to be happy. As a kid, I would always wish for material things -- clothes, toys, shoes, musical instruments. But now, I'm a 20-year-old lady who has realized that true happiness does not come from mere earthly possessions. It's all about realizing what you already have in life: your family, your friends, your loved ones. Yes, it's all about the people in your life who made you the person that you are now.

Since I turned 18, Christmas has been different for me. You see, when I was younger (Note: Yes, younger. I still am young, you know.), I'd look forward to Christmas because I know for sure that I'd get a present, whether it is from Santa or my parents or my brothers. But now, I look forward to Christmas simply to give thanks to what I have over the past 12 months. The Christmas season is now a time for me to see how my life is getting better and better because of the people in my life. Even though there have been heartbreaking moments from one time to another, the happiness that I have still overcame the sadness I've felt.

I have a lot of reasons to be thankful for. Those reasons are the people in my life.

(*) Mama and Papi >> For twenty years, they have given me everything they could just so they can be sure I'm happy. They have never been anything else but the best parents a girl could ever have.

(*) Kuya Rom and Kuya Miguel >> They have been my protectors and my guardians...what would I do without them?

(*) Yvette >> She's been like my big sister and I'm happy to have her here with me.

(*) Chi >> My one and only best friend! She always has and will always be my one and only best friend. She has seen me at my worst and at my best. I could not ask for a better friend than her...

(*) Alla and Euki and Claudia >> my Panganay and my Bru and my Sis...being friends with them for a decade (yes, we've been friends since we were in fifth grade) has taught me a lot of things and they've helped me through thick and thin.

(*) College Barkada (Faye, Chatti, Marvi, Tracy, Doray, Maria, Tetel, Jane) >> For three years, they've helped me in my problems and shared my happiness. Our barkada has been through a lot of trials and yet we're still intact.

(*) Fine Arts Friends (Cha, Sari, Net, Nyx, Andres, Angelo, Francis) >> They have made me part of their circle and I am simply lucky to have them in my life.

(*) TS Family (Ms. Wowie, Lei, Jen, Nica, Ping, Febbie, Ian, Ykai, Jay, Chesca) >> They have always helped me when I'm down. Without them, my college life may not be this colorful.

(*) Two of my PolSci Professors (Professor Yu and Sir Boogie) >> They have served as my inspiration and they continuously encourage me to become a better student in the classroom and a better person in the real world.

(*) LoRiCeR >> Through thick and thin, we're still one. I'm the luckiest girl in the world, being part of this wonderful batch.

There are still a lot of people to thank and to greet and God knows that there isn't enough space to tell all of them how grateful I am to have them in my life.

So to all of you...

Christmas is Near...

Still nothing much to do right now. I've been watching WWE Armageddon 2006 via YouTube. Oh the wonders of technology. I have wanted to see this PPV but here where I come from, the only way you can watch this is to pay P300 and see it in theaters. Well, at least I'm watching it right now, thanks to a certain YouTube user named dgenx214. Hehehe...

A few hours ago, I've texted a few of my friends, wishing them Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! When I think about it, I realize how truly blessed I am. I have my whole family here with me and they're simply the best family a girl could ever ask for, I have friends who have always been there for me through thick and thin, I have my professors who give me courage and inspiration to let me do what I want to do. How could I not be thankful for these people?

Blogthings...Again.

There's nothing really much to do around here. So I've decided to post some Blogthings. Hahaha!

Girls-Only Blogthings!

Obviously, I don't have anything better to do.

Enough said.

You Will Be a Modern Bride!

While you aren't ready to throw away all wedding tradions, you want a wedding with a twist
You're more inspired by celebrity weddings on E! than from bridal magazines
Whether this means getting married on the beach barefoot or a mariachi band for the reception...
Your wedding will be a blend of old and new - white dress cocktail, personalied vows, whatever suites you!!!


You're Part Diva

You know that a girl's gotta work it to get her way in the world.
And while you aren't about to throw a tantrum at every turn...
You do amp up the drama when you know you need it.
You mix charm, honesty, and kindness to get ahead.


You Belong in London

A little old fashioned, and a little modern.
A little traditional, and a little bit punk rock.
A unique woman like you needs a city that offers everything.
No wonder you and London will get along so well.


You Are Aphrodite!

A total shining star with a ton of admirers
And no wonder: you live life to the fullest!
When things get bad, you can easily take off to a happier place
But occasionally, you need to deal with problems head on

You Are A Woman!

Congratulations, you've made it to adulthood.
You're emotionally mature, responsible, and unlikely to act out.
You accept that life is hard - and do your best to keep things upbeat.
This makes you the perfect girlfriend... or even wife!


He Is So Into You!

Come on, why was there any question in your mind?
If he hasn't asked you out yet, he will!
All signs point to strong flirtation -
And that's always a good thing.



When Will It End?

Just woke up from my afternoon siesta. Two hours of sleep isn't bad. After all, I needed it. You figured it out -- I'm still sick. Gosh...when will this end?!?

There's nothing really I could post right now. I'm pretty bummed out. Shoot! This flu is really getting on my nerves...I want to get rid of it right now. Of course, that wouldn't be possible. But I try...I drink lots of fluid and I take my medications.

I'm home alone right now. Kuya Miguel is at work, Kuya Rom is out with his girlfriend, Yvette, Mom went to attend to some clients, Dad went to Sucat to help Lola buy a new television. *Sigh* If I wasn't so sick right now, I'd probably be out with my friends, shopping. Stupid flu!

Happy Morning...

It was something I didn't actually expect. But God knows I hoped for this to happen. You see, my brother, Kuya Miguel, told me that he's going to give me his Sony Ericsson K608i when he buys himself a new phone. Last night, he texted me asking me if it was OK that his Christmas gift to me is the mobile phone. I believe his last message was: "Ano? Go ba or damit na lang?" Hahaha! Of course, my reply was, "Cellphone na lang noh!"

When he got home, I was actually already asleep. Hmm...come to think of it, it might be the reason why I wasn't able to sleep again late at night. He woke me up and told me that I can have the cellphone already. That came as quite a shock. I wasn't expecting to get the phone until Christmas day itself.

Oh how I love my brother! Ahahahaha!!!

Thanks, Kuya Miguel, for an early Christmas present...

Couldn't Sleep.

It's way past midnight and I find myself lying on my bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, thinking of...absolutely nothing. I couldn't sleep. I don't know, maybe it was because I have the flu. It's kind of hard to breathe when your nose is clogged and you cough every now and then.

It's officially the 22nd day of December 2006. A Friday. Three days before Christmas Day. Ten days before we welcome the new year. What's really on my mind? I don't know, really. I just feel very much awake. Not a sleepy bone in my body. But how I wish I could sleep right now. Poor me. I have to wait until I could actually get sleepy before I could get some rest.

Usually, when I can't sleep, I'd drink a warm glass of milk. Unfortunately, the milk's already gone. I already drank the last glass last night before I went to bed. Waaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! How I wish I'd get that milk right now. If only I could turn back time to get that one glass of milk. Damn it!

Hmmm...I really hope that my flu will be gone before Christmas. Or else...I'll be stuck at home with nothing to do but wait for my family to come home from Parañaque. That's a long time, I assure you. Woe is me!

My, oh my...around this time, I had bought something to wear for the holidays. However, since I'm sick, I haven't had the chance to go out and shop for myself. Heck -- I haven't had the chance to shop for gifts for my family. Sorry...stupid illnesses!

Maybe I should try sleeping again. I just want to get to sleep so I could rest.

Anyway, good night.

Sick -- But Feeling Better.

It's amazing how one person could actually make you feel better. I still have the fever and the colds and the cough but...despite all that, I'm feeling good inside. I don't really know why but I have the feeling it's because of someone who constantly chats with me. I don't want to say who he is. He might be reading my blog. Hehehe...but for sure, it has something to do with him. And to tell you honestly, it's all good!

Whenever I talk to this guy, I'm always smiling, I always feel good. Even if I'm kind of depressed and all, I'd feel better the moment I start talking to him. I don't know how he does it. But I sure am glad that I feel that way. Oh how I wish that I'd feel better tomorrow. I mean, I hope that I won't be sick anymore tomorrow. It's really starting to bug me. It's a good thing that someone keeps me smiling.

Watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S. right now in ETC. I have to say, even though it's a replay, I don't mind watching it over and over and over again. I like this sitcom. I hope I'd get the complete DVD series. Hahaha! There I go again, adding another wish in my wish list.

Wow! In just a few days, it will be a new year. I wonder what's in store for me by then. I hope it will be all good. I'm turning twenty one next year. In four months, actually. I'm quite excited. Hehehe...I'm an adult. Gosh! I hope I can have a party. I really want to celebrate my 21st birthday. I want to celebrate it with my high school and college friends. Quite a number of people but still a few, if you think about it.

There are things to look forward to by next year. There are also things that I wish would never occur. Now is not really the time to reveal what those are. I don't want to start crying over it. But don't worry...I'll tell you when the time is right.

A lot of things are running through my head right now. I know it's vacation time and it's really a time for me to rest and think about nothing related to school. But I'm sorry...I just can't seem to get it out of my head. I think about a lot of things. I think about the report I have to do by the time I get back to school on January 8th. I think about my thesis and how I'm going to do it. I think about The Scholastican and how we're going to accomplish everything. I think about...well, you know the drift.

All I want to do right now is to talk to him. Yes, that's all I want to do. To make me feel better inside, I guess. It's all I want to do right now. I can't help it. Everytime I think about him, I just forget about everything else. I smile at the thought of talking to him. Don't worry, guys. I'm not in love with the guy or anything. I just like spending a few moments of conversation with him. That's all.

Anyway, I have to go. Still watching "Armageddon" in YouTube.

Ciao!


Daughtry Rocks!


I am not a big fan of American Idol finalist, Chris Daughtry.

But I have to admit -- his debut album, "Daughtry," absolutely rocks! Every song is superb! My gosh...I never thought I'd actually say this but...I just love his album!

Yeah!

Who would have thought I'd actually be looking forward to his next album? Hahaha! All right, so I was a little bit fast thinking of Chris' next album. But how could you go wrong? "Daughtry" is simply outstanding! It's a must buy for everyone...yes, even if you're not a Chris Daughtry fan like me. Hmm...maybe I should add this to my wish list. Hehehe.

Update, people! "Daughtry" is officially in my Christmas Wish List! So for those of you who are thinking of giving me a gift for Christmas, here's your chance. Read my previous entry. Hahahaha! Cool!

A Not-So-Good Morning.

*Sigh* Third day of being sick. This is really getting to me. I can't believe this! I should be out there buying gifts for my friends and my family but no...can't happen. Stupid fever! Now I have the colds, too. How lucky am I to catch this illness?! It's really bugging me big time!

Argh!!! I don't want to be cooped up here at home and not do anything. I really want to go out, shop, hang out. Damn! I really hate this.

Gotta go. Have to eat breakfast (the most important meal of the day!).

Ciao!

Still Sick.

I really don't like the feeling of being sick. I don't feel so good at all. Not good at all. I feel so weak, so tired. All I want to do is to lie down and rest. For the people who know me, they will tell you I don't like not being able to do anything. I'd go crazy! I can't let this day go by with not doing anything. That's why I dragged my butt out of bed and immediately typed away my blues. I can't just lie around and sleep all day. I had to, at least, do something.

I'm currently watching Jurassic Park. Yep, the first movie. It's nothing special, really. I just like this one. Hehehe.

*Sigh* Even though I'm watching a movie, there's this song that keeps playing over and over and over in my head. "So Into You" by Tamia. I don't know why I'm having this Last Song Syndrome but since I heard that song again (which was last Saturday, December 16), I just can't get it out of my head. I kept listening to it inside my head repeatedly, not getting tired of it all. I guess I have Ian (Agoncillo) to thank for this. If it wasn't for her, we wouldn't have sung this beautiful song at all.



With every passing moment
Thoughts of you run through my head
Every time that I'm near you
I realize that you're heaven sent, baby

I think you're truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's stay together, you and me boy
There's no one like you around
Oh baby

I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you

I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you

It could be the way that you hold me
It could be the things that you say
(That you say)
Oh, I'm not too sure what it is boy
But I know I like feeling this way, hey

I think you're truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's stay together, you and me boy
There's no one like you around
Oh baby

I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you

I really like what I feel when I'm with you
You're a dream come true
Don't you ever leave my side
Cuz it feels so right

I really like
What you've done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you

I really like
I'm so into you
I'm so into you
Oh, I'm so into you

How I love this song. I don't know. I guess it's because I like someone right now and this is really what I'm feeling for the guy. It's really nice to think of him and feel all giddy and happy and...well, you know, nakakakilig. Hahaha!

It's a good thing that I'm still able to feel jolly and all even though I'm sick to my stomach. My head is actually spinning. Feels like I'm riding on a carousel. Hahaha! This is fun. I just hope I wouldn't puke. Hehehe...

Hmm...I guess I better go and rest.

Happy Birthday, Professor Yu!

Oh happy day!

My favorite professor, Professor Rolando Yu, is celebrating his birthday TODAY. Yes, TODAY! Hehehehe...I'm so happy...if I'm correct, Professor is already 59 years old...hmm...yeah, I think that's right. I know he's a little bit older than my parents. Hahaha!

Happy Holidays to my High School Barkada!!!



This is a little something to give to my high school friends. We've been through thick and thin since we were in grade school and I'm so blessed to still have them as my barkada.

To Chi: my best friend...I don't know what I would do if I didn't have you in my life...

To Alla: my panganay na anak...wag mo akong unahan. Hahaha! You know what I mean.

To Euki: my bru...you always take good care of me in school. Thanks a lot!

I love y'all!

Happy holidays!

A New Day!

Good morning, world! How do you do? Oh my gosh! Can you believe it? It's actually five days before Christmas Day. But before Christmas, let me greet two of my gal pals from The Scholastican -- Jen Chan and Ping, happy birthday!!! Hehehe...where's the party at? Don't forget to invite me, all right? Hahaha!!!

*Sigh* Christmas...in less than a week, we'll be celebrating the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. When I talk to some people, they say that they still can't feel the spirit of Christmas. Mainly because they don't have the money to spend for gifts. It's actually sad, when you think about it. People think that Christmas is all for gifts and stuff and parties and so on. What they don't realize is that those are just bonuses to Christmas. Christmas is all about being happy with your family and friends. It's about realizing that life is great. It's about being fulfilled with your life.

How I wish that people would actually think about Christmas like that.

I feel lucky, honestly. I feel lucky because the fact of the matter is...I'm not really looking forward to receiving gifts. I mean, sure, if I get any, I'd be grateful and all. But the thing is, I'm happy because I'm with my family. I'm happy because I have friends who continue to love and care for me. I'm happy because I'm alive. I'm able to experience this life God has given me.

I wish people would realize that.

Especially Made for My College Barkada...

This is my part one present to the Sapiang Abnormal.

Merry Christmas, friends!

Love lots!



An Early Christmas Present to ABPOL3!

Here's a little something I whipped up just a few hours ago for my block. A taste of what's to be my Christmas present to everyone. I hope you like it, ABPOL3!

Merry Christmas to one and all!


Sick.

This is not good.

This is not good at all.

It's officially my Christmas break. This should be a happy day for me, now that I'd be able to get some much needed rest and relaxation. Whoopee! Unfortunately for me, I start this break with me having a fever. *Groan* What a way to start my vacation.

I guess I had this coming. With months of not having enough sleep and studying and going from one place to another, it's safe to say that I really deserve this. Sometimes, I just don't know when to stop. I want to do everything as much as I could, in the end, I'm the one who ends up suffering. I just wish I'd get better by tomorrow. I still have to do some stuff.

Here I go again.

JournSem Blues and Team Building Bliss

Since I became the Associate Editor, I looked forward to one thing and one thing only: the annual Journalism Seminar and Team Building. I had always imagined how things would go about this activity because this is a major thing for the Editorial Board. We all want this journsem/team building to be almost perfect, if not perfect at all.

But that was not what happened when we had the activity.

What I envisioned to be an activity filled with fun and laughter turned out to be a three-day nightmare and sorrow. From the turn out of the members to the flow of the activity, everything was, to say the least, HORRIBLE!

From the 55 members that were supposed to attend the journalism seminar, only a handful attended. What was even more frustrating was the fact that I was informed that not everyone knew that we had the seminar. Those who didn't know were said to belong to two sections: Deluge and Graphics. At this point, I wanted to scream! I wanted to scold someone. I wanted to be angry at someone. But I couldn't possibly do that. I needed to keep my cool, calm myself down.

Deep inside, I felt so humiliated! I didn't want to show my face to anyone I know. I just couldn't bear the fact that I am helpless. There was nothing more that I could do with what's happening at that moment.

After the journsem was over, the Editorial Board had a very emotional meeting. I had nothing to say. I was angry. And to let it out to the people who had nothing to do with my anger was useless. So I tried to forget about the whole journsem fiasco and looked forward to the team building.

Oh how I thought this would be the time I'd laugh about the depression I had. Turned out, it was the opposite.

I finally hit rock bottom when we couldn't leave the school due to the fact that we don't have a chaperone. Lei kept talking to Mrs. Ferrer, Ms. Det, Ms. Thess and Ms. Wowie, explaining things and hoping that we'd be able to get the hell out of school.

7:00 in the evening. We finally convinced Ms. Wowie to be our chaperone. We were all set to leave school. Unfortunately for us, the driver texted Sr. Celeste that we're still in school. Argh! While Lei, Jen, and I tried to convince the sisters to let us go, we were unsuccessful. Shoot! How are we going to explain this to the staff who are there already?

We got out of school and proceeded to Jollibee where we planned everything out. Lei spent the next few hours on the mobile phone talking to the admin and parents explainng what had happened.

After making sure that everyone had a place to sleep and that they'd come back for the call time, Ykai, Ian, Nica, Chiqui, and I went to Prov to let out all frustrations by means of singing out hearts out. After a few hours of letting out depression, we proceeded to Starbucks and decided to wait until the time we'd meet the others.

Oops! That didn't work. We were all so tired. We went to Aimee's place and asked if we could sleep over. Imagine eight girls sleeping on two thin mattresses. Oh how wonderful that was. By the way, I didn't get to sleep at all.

At six o'clock in the morning, we met up with Ms. Wowie and the others at Jollibee. We decided to talk commute on the way to Laguna. We got there around 9:00. When we got there, we simply forgot about what happened the past few days.

I was really glad Ms. Wowie was there. At least, I got to laugh and laugh and laugh. The others took a dip in the pool. I was in our room, getting some much needed rest. That sleep lasted about 40 minutes.

And that was our "team building." In fairness, we really got to bond with the others. In a way, I was happy then.

Now it's time to go back to the real world.

Good Day for Blogging.

Lately, I've been having good days. I don't really know why but certain things are just making me so happy, I feel like everything's perfect.

I saw my friend today. Yup, you know who I'm talking about. Him. Hehehe. For two solid hours, he and I were hanging out and I just felt so happy. Crazy me...I couldn't stop smiling. All the time, I was smiling and laughing and smiling -- oh how I loved feeling that way...again. I missed feeling this way. I'm glad that I'm experiencing it all over again.

It's such a wonderful surprise when a certain someone makes you feel that way. Look, wait a minute! Before you go jumping to conclusions, may I point out that I am not, I repeat, NOT in love with anyone right now. The truth is, I'm crushing on someone. That's all there is to it. No more, no less.

Well, I guess that's all I have to say for now.

I'll be back as soon as I can.

Ciao!

Can't Stop Smiling.

I actually missed this. You know...the part where I just couldn't stop myself from smiling. It's one of those days that I'm really, truly happy. It's surprising that the reason why I'm smiling, why I'm happy is because of a simple message from a certain someone.

You see, it's his birthday today so I decided to text him a "happy birthday." His reply...well, it goes something like this...

"Tnx margie! Hahaha.. Having u n my life dis year s 1 of d greatest blesings i receivd!Ü"

All it took was one simple message and I have this smile since the moment I got it. It's such a wonderful feeling to know how someone cherishes you. I know that my friend and I are not exactly the closest of friends. Heck! All we have right now is just plain friendship. Yes, I admit that I like him but you know...it's not as if I'm in love with him. I mean, I don't know him that much to actually say I've fallen head over heels the guy.

The thing is...he made me feel special and he made me feel loved.

That's the reason why I can't stop smiling.

December Begins.

Well, what do you know? It's the first day of December. Only twenty four days left before Christmas. Wow! Who'd have thought that time flies by so fast that it's almost the end of yet another year.

*Sigh* A lot of things are going to happen this month. I mean, apart from the Christmas season, that
is. On Sunday, December 3rd, St. Scholastica's College, Manila turns 100. My goodness...I'll be going to Ninoy Aquino Stadium by 7:30 in the morning, in my school uniform, to attend the Mass for All. I'm kind of sad because on Sunday, the family is supposed to go to my Lola's house in Parañaque for our monthly family gatherings. But since this Mass for All is a requirement for all students, I have no choice but to go there. Good thing, there won't be any classes on Monday since we'll all be there the day before.

I have a very long weekend, you see. It started yesterday and it will end on Tuesday. Nice, huh? Even if Malacañang didn't suspend the classes, I still don't have school on that day. Remember? I don't have classes every Tuesday and Thursday? Anyway, today, we don't have classes too because it's a holiday (Bonifacio day, that is). Tomorrow...no classes. Sir Boogie said we don't have to meet tomorrow (Good news for us!). Sunday, we'll go to school but we don't have to stay all day all night. Monday, no classes because it's a rest day for everyone at St. Scho. Tuesday, well, you know. Hehehe...that's my 6-day weekend.

But hey! Hold on. Even though I don't have to go to school during these days, that doesn't mean I won't. I need to go there for library use. I need to do a lot of research and stuff. A lot of studying is necessary for my majors. So, there you go.

It's really going to be a very busy week. Anyway, I have to go now.

Catch you later.

Thoughts.

As much as possible, I try my best not to post an entry about...love. Why? Well, let's just say I had a bad experience with blogging about my emotions of a certain someone. But right now, I think I have to.

Here's the thing. I'm kind of at a point where I'm back to liking someone again. For a year, I was at the brink of self-destruction. I cried day and night because of him. I neglected everything because I was so depressed.

But now, after everything I've been through because of him, I'm back on track. I have my life back...though not completely, I'm getting there.

Reality is...there's someone I'm starting to like again. Ok. Not really being honest here. There are actually two people that I'm crushing on. Hey, wait a minute. Hold on! It's not that I'm playing in the field, all right? It's just that these two guys really stand out from the rest of the guys.

The first one, well, we've been communicating since last month and it's nice to keep in touch with him once in a while. Although we still have yet to see each other, I don't really mind waiting. I know there's a lot of opportunities to see each other. I guess the "right time" has yet to come.

The second one...ah...I have to admit that I had a crush on him before. But since he was with someone and I was having a thing for someone else...well, you know how it went. But recently, we've been texting each other and we've talking on the phone from time to time, so there. I guess my crush on him re-emerged from down deep. Hehehe...

A part of me feels that this is really wrong. Not because I'm ashamed to like two people simultaneously (Hey! I've seen a lot of people gushing on ten people at the same time). It doesn't feel right because I feel like I still don't know the two guys well enough to actually like them. Sure, I've already hung out with them but that doesn't mean I know them enough.

Of course, the bigger part of me feels that this is good. I guess this serves as a sign that my heart is, piece by piece, going back the way it used to be. Maybe it's a sign that I can fall in love with someone again and actually love that someone when time comes.

I'm happy. Really, I am. Of course, I'm not yet sure what lies ahead with regards to my love life. I'm not sure if that someone meant for me is right in front me or someone I have yet to meet. Bottom line is I AM happy.

Hmm...there goes the matters of the heart for now.

Ciao.

Last Post for the Month.

No class today. It was declared by Malacañang that classes today in all levels are suspended because of Super Typhoon Reming. It didn't matter to me because I don't have classes today anyway. Although it was kind of surprising to see that there was no trace of the coming of the typhoon. No rains whatsoever. The sky was certainly dim though. Nonetheless, no rain.

I did a lot of school work today. Comparative Government and Politics in Europe and America. International Relations/Politics. Philippine Foreign Policy. Cultural History of the Philippines. Methods of Research.

Oi! Oh my goodness! My head is totally spinning! Information overload.

You know. I have to admit. There are times when I just don't know when to stop. This was supposed to be a day for me to just relax and take it easy. The thing is, I just couldn't control myself. I feel like I need to get a hold of my books and my notebook and study or else I'm going to explode. Weird, I know. But hey...it's not my fault, all right?

*Sigh* Going back to what I've been doing earlier.

Whoopee...

Friday Afternoon.

I don't usually do this...but since there's nothing to do for the moment, I have decided to log in my blog and post.

Right now, I'm in the TS office. Yes, yes, I know the internet in the office is not meant for personal reasons and stuff (sorry, Lei) but I just needed to get something out of my system and I need to get it out of me NOW.

I'm beginning to wonder. Will I really be OK? Physically, mentally, emotionally. My mind can't seem to snap out of it...which means that there's really something going on with me that I can't seem to grasp. I don't think that my stress is merely a result of this heavy school load I have. There's something else. I'm sure of it.

Something is bothering me big time. I have this feeling that it has something to do with someone but is it really possible that it's affecting me that much? I really want to know.

I need some time off. I mean...other than my retreat, which by the way, I had last Tuesday. I need to go out...preferably all alone and just think. Maybe that would help me.

*Sigh* Oh well. Time to log off.

Ciao!

One Week Absent.

Wait!

Before you get all worked up with the title...let me clarify. I have not been absent in school for a week. Hell no! I wouldn't dare miss a day in school with all the majors I'm taking. No way!

"Hell Month" truly lived up to its name as the week started giving me tons of school work -- over 500 pages of handouts and pages to read for three subjects, about a dozen write-ups to prepare for three homeworks, and at least a ton of brain power to make everything work.

I actually missed blogging. A lot! Honestly, it's like there was something missing because all I do when I log in the net was research for my would-be thesis.

Oh yes. I'm already starting thesis. It's official. Since Friday, our professor in Methods of Research (MethRes), Sir Laufred, has chosen a thesis topic for us based on the list we submitted to him. My topics for thesis were...

1. ICT Outsourcing Between First and Third World Countries
2. The Role of Mass Media in Politics, particularly on how they project policies on the society
3. Cultural Diversity and Globalization

And the winner is...

Hehehe...I got the first topic, which is perfect because this is the topic that I really want to do as my thesis. I have always been interseted in this "phenomenon," so to speak. I've heard and read that this outsourcing is really good for the economy and it really is. What I will be studying here is...even though it strengthens the economy, how come job outsourcing is considered to be a politically divisive issue? My gosh! I really can't wait to do this.

* * *

Today is the most awaited Pacquiao-Morales III bout and well...what can I say? Pacman won...third round. Morales went down and he sure went down hard! Dad was right after all. He's been telling me that the fight won't go past three rounds and I have to say...when it comes to boxing, Dad knows. Hehehe...

I have been routing for Pacman to win, mainly because between the two boxers, Pacman is more consistent in his fights. I like Morales as well but he's just too cocky. I mean, he got beat with his last fight with Pacman and he kept making excuses that he's just worn out from losing the weight which is really a lame excuse.

Go Pacman!

* * *

Well, I guess it's time to start school work again. I still have a lot of things to do.

Ooh. By the way, I'm having my retreat on Tuesday so...there!

Ciao!

Sunday Blog.

(also known as Hell Months Commence.)

You probably have an idea as to why I was not able to post entries since Thursday. Oh yes, as early as Thursday, I have been bombarded with so many things to do for the coming weeks.

Our class schedule will be changed. Instead of having five days of classes, I will have four days. Whoopee...well, not exactly. Starting this week, my school days are Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Yup, I have a Saturday class yet again. My Tuesdays and Thursdays only have one class, Modern Political Philosophy with Mr. Bugaoan and to the class, that really is just a waste of time having only one class which takes up only one and a half hours of our time. Who would be enthusiastic to go to school if that's the only class you've got?! Whoever did the schedules is or are the ones to blame for this. Our class is not the only one who have a bad schedule. In fact, I've been hearing complaints from a lot of my friends from other courses about their schedules. *Sigh* What a bummer.

At the end of the week, I realized how stressful my second semester is going to be. All my subjects require research paper and I have Methods of Reseach now so that would mean, this is my preparation for my final thesis.

I can feel it. No more social life for me. I'd be lucky if I could get the chance to hang out with my best friend at least once month. Even though I don't have classes during Tuesday and Thursday, I'm sure I'm going to use those days for research since my Wednesday and Friday classes are until 6:00 in the evening. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my only free days to go to the library.

Of course, there's also the school paper. So help me, I just hope I could survive this semester. I guess it's pretty obvious why I call this "Hell Months," huh?

Anyway, I have to go now and eat breakfast.

I'll check in later...hopefully.

What a Day!

Ok. Today, it was supposed to be our first meeting in Modern Political Philosophy with Sir Bugaoan. I got to school around 7:00 in the morning, half an hour earlier than our designated time. I was there with a couple of my classmates. Considering the fact that we were only around 9 in the room, I already had this feeling that we're not exactly going to be complete in the class.

Around 7:45am, Sir Boogie (as we usually call him) was still nowhere to be found. Liane, our class representative, called him on his cellphone and asked whether or not he was in school and Sir Boogie confirmed that he was in school. Of course, we expected him to come barging in the room after 10-15 minutes because climbing 4 stairways of the M Building is very much exhausting.

We waited.
...and waited.
...and waited still.

It was already past 8:00 and Sir Boogie still didn't come in class. Liane was about to go get him but then, Tita Virgie, the room checker in M Building, came in class and told us that Sir Boogie just needs us to sign attendance and he could not come to class because he didn't have a class list.

What the--?! All the effort we exerted to go to school...for nothing?!? Grrr...that really ruined the day.

Actually, it was a good thing that the school paper held a general assembly later in the afternoon because if I had nothing else to do, I swear...I would be freaking out!

Hmmm...don't really have much to say about that one. Actually, there's a lot to say but you know. It's just a bunch of responsibilities that need taking care of. My gosh! I wish I could handle it. I'm really scared of being put into such position.

I'll fill you in this matter maybe tomorrow.

Right now, I'm going.

Ciao!

A Different Turn of Events.

From the time I woke up, I immediately planned that my entry for today will be a happy one because It is, after all, the first day of the second semester. But what I thought as a exciting day turned out to be a rather depressing one.

This morning, I was hanging out with my friends at B304. We were not able to meet our professor in Comparative Government today (which we learned in the afternoon that our professor there is Professor Yu). My friends and I were talking about our friends outside of St. Scho, the "Tag Team." I can't really explain how the "Tag Team" was established in our circle of friends. That's a whole new story. Anyway, we were telling to one another that soon enough, we'll be seeing the "Tag Team" once again and we were all really excited when that finally happens. Just then, Doray got a message from her friend, Harold. That was the time that everyone in our group felt as if everything just went black.

Roy Marasigan died 2:00 in the morning. Cause of his death -- dengue.

We were in shock! No one could believe it. We didn't really know how to react to such news. We thought it was a joke. But then again, who would joke like that?! Then Doray texted her other friends...and it was confirmed. Roy passed away.

My friends and I then decided that we go to his wake at Divine Mercy at Muntinlupa. Before going there, Tetel, Chatti and I were just saying how in disbelief we really were about the whole thing. How could this have happened?! No one in our circle even knew he was sick. We just could not accept the fact that he's gone! I even told them that I felt that even if I did see him in the casket, I wouldn't believe that he's indeed dead.

We (Tetel, Chatti, Doray, Tracy and I) left school around 3:00 in the afternoon and went to Park & Drive to meet up with Gian and from there, we all rode a bus and headed for the funeral home. On the bus, I can't say that I was my usual self. Thoughts of seeing Roy in the casket scared me to death because if I did, that would mean he's really gone -- forever. I don't really think I could actually accept that reality. I know we're not that close but the thing is...we had our good times and all those memories will be in my heart forever. I thought of how Roy's friends are, knowing that they just lost a friend. I thought of how his family is doing, considering that their family just went through a loss of a family member earlier this year. On the month of April, Roy's father died due to cancer. Now him. How much heartbreak could his family go through?

We got there about an hour and a half later. We were trying to ready ourselves for what we have to face in there. From the entrance we saw that it was actually real. It read that in the Diamond Room lies the body of "Roy Vincent Marasigan."

We walked up to the room and saw his family and his barkada. Then we saw the casket. No one really knew what to do next. We were all so scared to go up front and see his lifeless body lying on the open casket. After a few minutes of pondering, we all decided to go and see for ourselves that it was really him.

It was him. Yes. His body in the casket. But still, our minds rejected that Roy was definitely gone...for good...never to be seen again. We looked at the body and we felt that it wasn't him. I guess it's because it's been almost two years since we last saw each other and we couldn't recognize him as that guy lying on the casket. I already wanted to cry. Tears were already welling up in my eyes. All that's left was for the tears to fall. But I didn't cry. I held back the tears. I didn't really want to show any emotions there.

But Doray...she cried so hard. Before she even went to see Roy's body, she was telling us how scared she was because she just couldn't handle the reality that he is indeed gone. But she had to, right? She had to go there and see for herself.

Dick, one of Roy's barkada, told us that Roy has been sick since Tuesday last week. His fever just wouldn't go down 40 degrees. On Thursday, Roy was already taken to the hospital and he was in the ICU since then. It was only yesterday that Dick and the others found out that Roy was in the hospital because Roy's mother was looking for blood donors for him. Although they did found donor/s, it could be that his body just...shut down. Dick even told us that at 12 midnight, he and a couple of his friends were riding a car and they were having a bit of music playing, to cheer themselves up, I guess. All of a sudden, their car broke down...right in front of Divine Mercy Viewing Chapels.

Also, Dick told us this story that Roy's Friendster account has changed its background two weeks ago. According to Dick, in their circle of friends, their backgrounds in Friendster have always been black. Roy, on the other hand, changed it to pure white. In his profile, there was a poem there about love.

Roy's birthday was coming up. He was supposed to celebrate it on the 9th. Dick said that Roy's burial will be on his birthday.

It just broke my heart.

We left the funeral home around 6:00. No one knew how to begin the conversation but I guess it was only natural that it would start with, of course, Roy. From there, we tried to remember the times we had fun hanging out with Roy.

...and we all went our separate ways.

* * * * *

My heart still couldn't take the burden that it had faced this day. But I will be all right. Because knowing Roy, he didn't want any of his friends to be sad.

Roy,

I know you're in a better place. You hold a special place in my heart and I hope you know that. Even though we're not that close, you are one friend I will forever remember.

I'll miss you forever...

...to the Tag Team.

Oh Happy Day.

From 12 o'clock midnight until the time I will fall asleep, I have to say, this is really a fun day. I slept well today and...I have a funny feeling that I will sleep soundly tonight.

When midnight struck, i immediately texted my friend, Francis, to greet him a happy birthday. I was surprised to receive a reply from him. I have to say that it was really great texting him. I've forgotten how makulit he is when it comes to texting. Hehehe. My gosh! Could you imagine a 23-year-old guy calling me ate just because he felt like it. Harrrr. Who was he kidding? He told me he was only 18. Oh yeah. Right. Dream on, Mr. Francis Roble. Hahahaha! I have the last laugh.

I fell asleep around 2:00. Seven hours later, Daddy woke me up because we have a party to attend to. Ninang Linda celebrated her birthday by treating the Francisco family to Jade Garden. Oh my gosh! It's been years since we last ate there. Actually, Jade Garden moved to Peking Garden at Glorietta 2. After so many years, I was able to eat Peking Duck again. Mmm...savory. Yummy!

After the get-together, we all went our separate ways. The family went to Greenbelt to attend Holy Mass at Sto. Niño de Paz Chapel. I've missed that chapel. It's also been a long time since I heard mass there. When I was there, I just remembered how solemn it felt to be there. I loved celebrating mass there and I wish I could do it every week again. Hmm...maybe I will. Who knows. Ehehe...

Oooh...tomorrow I go back to school! Finally! Hahahaha! I have something to do. Already I'm filled with meetings and other stuff to do...which is actually fine by me. I'd rather be busy than be unproductive.

Oh yeah! I also bought myself new shoes. The school shoes I bought last summer were already worn out so...that has to go. Hahaha! Wow! I really like the shoes I bought. Hehehe...don't worry...I'll post a picture of it tomorrow in my blog...hahahaha!!!

Anyway, I think I better go to sleep. If you remember, my class starts 7:30 in the morning.

Good night!

Happy Birthday!

November 5th.
Sunday.
Birthday of three people I know.

One. Ninang Linda, who's become a Golden Girl today. Yes, she's fifty years old and she's celebrating her birthday with a bang. We're eating at Jade Garden today. Yahoo!

Two. Tito Ding, husband of Tita Estie and father of Ate Kriselle and Paolo. Not quite sure how old he is right now. I'm guessing he's 54? Hehehe. Nevertheless, it's his day also and we'll be seeing each other later.

Three. Francis Roble. Now, he's the guy I got acquainted with last year in a conference I attended in Tagaytay. He turns 23 today. Sometimes, he could be such a joker. He's older than me and yet he calls me "ate." Hmph! There's a reason why I actually call him "kuya" but he never listens.

Anyway, I can't stay much longer. I still have to prep up for Ninang's birthday celebration.

I'll fill you in on details later.

Good morning, world!

Ciao!

Sad.

Since last night, I'm really feeling kind of sad...depressed, even. A lot of people may find this very shallow but...I'm sad because my phone is busted. The thing that really irritates me is that I just had my phone fixed last week because the sounds were gone. Now, after a week, there's no signal.

I'm missing my phone. A lot. Right now, I'm using one of the extra mobile phones lying around here. I'm back to using Nokia 3310. Not that I have anything against the phone, it's just that...I really miss using my Sony Ericsson K500i. I mean, for two years I've had that phone and it's one of my most prized possessions because that is the most expensive thing that I bought with my hard-earned money.

Shallow, right?

Hey, don't get me wrong. I'm not the material girl type. There are just so many things that I stored in the phone that I need. Contact numbers, messages, pictures...the list goes on.

I was talking to one of my friends last night. My friend said that maybe it means that I'll be getting a new mobile. The thing is...I'm a hundred percent sure that's not going to happen because nobody's going to buy me a new phone. Since I turned 18, my last two phones, Nokia 3100 and SE K500i are from my own pocket money. No help from other people whatsoever. It's all me. That's the thing that I'm talking about. It's very hard to replace something with so much sentiment on it. This is the reason why I'm really bummed out with my phone being busted.

Anyway, it's late. I still have to wake up early tomorrow. November 5th. Three people are celebrating their birthdays tomorrow.

Ninang Linda.
Tito Ding.
Francis.

With a couple of minutes left before 12 midnight, I wish to greet you, "advance happy birthday!"

Lights out.

Two Days Left.

Saturday.
7:58 in the evening.
Anxious-excited.

I really want to go back to school. I can't wait to study again. Honestly! Call me weird or nuts or crazy or whatever you think is suitable -- but I just want to go back to my studies. I want to hit the books and read and ready myself for recitations and tests.

On Monday, I will have two subjects only. Both are three-hour classes. I'll probably be in school around 7:00 in the morning. My first class begins 7:30 and it's going to end 10:30. Comparative Government of Europe and America. It's an exciting subject, I can tell. I've always been fascinated by Europe and it's going to be such an adventure to discuss it in class. America, well, I'm not really a big fan of it but I'm up for it. Although, I am kind of scared of who my professor is going to be in this subject. I'm just hoping that it's not going to be -- well, for the ABPOL3, you know who I'm talking about. That professor is just so lame...I did not learn a thing from him. Regardless of the fact that he gives his students high grades, to learn something from a teacher is a different thing. So I hope and I pray that it's not going to be the same instructor. If I had to choose who my professor is going to be, I'm hoping it's Professor Yu. He's really my favorite professor. Yes, I know I'm not the one who gets the highest grades in his class but the thing is...he's really made an impact on me as my professor. He has challenged me to perform better each time we meet in class. I really hope he's going to be my professor there. But of course, I'm still open to other instructors...as long as it's not you-know-who. Harsh as I may sound, but hey, I'm just telling it as it is.

From 10:30 until 1:30 in the afternoon, I will be attending my next class. Cultural History of the Philippines with Mr. Lars Raymund Ubaldo. Cultural History is an elective subject in my course and there's nothing really to say except...I'm looking forward to studying it. As for the professor, I'm not sure what to say because it's the first time that he's going to be my professor. I just hope he's not the type who lets his class do all the work and he just discusses what's in th handout or the book. I hate that.

Well, since there's nothing left to say, I guess I better end this entry.

Evening is Here.

Surprisingly, I slept the whole afternoon. There was nothing to do, no one to talk to, and no food to eat. The bed was actually "calling" me to lie down on it and sleep. I guess I needed it. Getting only five hours of sleep this morning, I had it coming. I was still tired from all the late night tv shows and bloggings and other stuff. Sleep was good. Sleep was definitely good.

Good Morning, World!

Brand new day, brand new entry. The blogging is getting to be my habit. No big deal. Just stating the obvious. I like blogging now than I did before. When I started out in this blogging (care of Friendster Blogs), it was for the purpose of one thing: to let all my frustrations out on someone who didn't love me back. It would be no surprise that almost all my entries in my blog are all emotional and heartbroken. But now, I've had a revelation (hehe). Blogging for me is now a diary of not just one part of my life -- it's for everything.

Ever since I could remember, I have always had a journal. It was a routine for me that before I go to sleep, I would write on it and make the memory last forever. I know it sounds cliche but having a diary is very important to me. No, I don't intend to have a "Bridget Jones" moment. I just love having something to write on and just express all my emotions.

Of course, having a diary helped me with my writing skills. If you can remember, I wanted to become a writer first and I heard from a lot of people that having a diary is essential in a writer's life. I was that serious to becoming a writer. If you come with me to my home and look at "mini library," I have a lot of books about writing well. Hmm...sometimes, I can't help but wonder what would happen to me if I did pursue a course on journalism. Funny, I can't imagine myself taking up another course except political science. It's a good thing, right? That I'm sure that this is what I want. I have absolutely no regrets. I'm happy with my decision and I'm sticking to it.

My, my...technology. I was happy with a notebook to write on. Kind of like Harriet the Spy. But today, a simple notebook is not enough. Since the blogs have been created, it was as if these blogs turned into must-haves. But hey, I'm not complaining or anything. As a matter of fact, I'm very grateful to the creators of blogs. It's making my life a whole lot easier, getting me to type everything I need to put down.

Anyway, it's time to eat breakfast.

Going, going...

Gone.
