The finals are over. \o/ Raise your arms and wave them like you just don't care! :)
What's left on my list?

1. Freshmen Orientation Student Guide

I suddenly get flashbacks of the printing, collating, and stapler-ing, and counting torture I had last summer. Ate Therese and I were just-- tortured.

Print. Collate. Stapler. Print. Collate. Stapler. Realize a page is upside down. Take out stapler. Accidentally rip 3 pages. Print again. Collate. Stapler. Count.

Oh the joy.

2. Freshmen Orientation CATALYST Video

Last summer, I did the Tripod video with Twinnee (RIP). And all-mighty Chair IT JoshYwee says we'll use the same video for this orientation since we didn't get to show it. I wonder how people would react.

I imagine Twinnee coming out and saying "Surprise! I'm alive! TADAHHHH!" and it was all an April Fool's joke. A well planned joke.

But its not.

So now, CATALYST. :)

3. LSPCON (Lasallian Press Conference) @ DLSAraneta

From March 7 - 9, Kevin and I will be at Araneta for this Lasallian Press Conference. And guess what?
There's free coffee. LOL.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed about the sponsorship and the school shouldering our P12, 000 lodging and registration fee. ;) *SANA!*

4. 3rd Year's lame schedule and the school's system

Ano na? Are we gonna burn na? HAHAHA. Until now, my ABCA Batchmates and I are STILL underload! And I'm getting really mad. We can't wait forever. :|

There are three things to choose from if ever none of the classes we petitioned gets opened (which I hope won't happen. This is their fault. Not ours.)

(a) Underload. For that term, I'll only have 3 classes. And none of them are majors. And I still need to pay the same miscellaneous fee. And it's a waste.
(b) Cross-enroll. Probably at Taft. But I still need to pay the miscellaneous fee of both schools and it's really hassle to go to Taft. Though I really like that opportunity. ;)
(c) Stop. Maybe I'll go work or find something to do. Rather than wasting money. :| I'd rather earn.

Either way, all of us will be late. And you don't know how much I want to graduate already.

5. Leadership Training Seminar

Yay. I'm still very blessed to be able to join LTS this year. Not so long ago, I gave up hope or any chance of being a somebody. Not that its important or anything. But I just lost a great deal of self-esteem. And to those who know what that's like... well, you know what I mean. :)

6. Subic Grande Island Vacation

Hurrah for a 2-day break. Nothing but swimsuits, that sexy back, darker skin, a jet ski, and lots of salt water. I'll need to stop thinking about all of the above for a while. I'm gonna die an old-looking, stressed person. Ew.

We should all die FABULOUS in our coffins. Hahaha. Oh my, how dark. Lol. :))

There are other things that I can't seem to get out of my head right now, but it's all minimal. Like that girl who--- oops. :)

Anyways, rejoice fellow students. The break is here! Let's rest till a new year of stress, coffee, and sleepless nights come again.

Holy Week

Thursday, April 9, 2009

No breakfast.
No dinner.

Just one heavy lunch.
And a kazillion liters of Nestea. "I-bottomless ang saya!"

Bisita Iglesia. 4 churches lang. Frankincense. I'll just share what I blogged in my Multiply:

People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives.
Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable.
Be honest and transparent anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.

People who really want help may attack you if you help them.
Help them anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt.
Give the world your best anyway.

- Mother Teresa

Such great words.

enchanted kwento

Saturday, April 4, 2009

03.29.09

"Be at the gate at 11am", sabi ni Zyrille. Sya ung may birthday nung araw na yun. Eighteen na sya. Pa-onti onti nawawala ang mga 17 sa barkada ko. Sa tingin mo masaya ako? Haha! Oo naman! Honor kaya ung bunso ka sa grupo. Sa bahay kasi, ako panganay. Pero ayus parin yung treatment sa group. Walang taboo sa usapan. Equal lahat.

Nag-ready na ako kagabi. Jacket pag malamig. Ung susuotin kong shorts kasi alam ko na mababasa ako sa Rio Grande. Extra shirt. Yung shirt ko na Pinoy Pride galing Artwork. Suklay. Bag. Slippers.

Wala ata akong cellphone nun eh.

Napakatalinong bata, nakalimutan mag dala ng extra shorts. Di bale, palagi naman gumagana ung routine eh. Pagkatapos mag Rio Grande, derechong Flying Fiesta para magpatuyo. Ayos rin kasi magkaharap lang sila ata. (3 years na ako di nagEenchanted Kingdom. Grabe.)

So ayun, habang naghihintay ng 11, nagPet Society muna ako. Sabay tulong rin sa chores. Mejo. Excited kasi ako sobra. Hahaha. Nanuod rin ako ng "Marley and Me". Movie siya starring Jennifer Aniston and... agh. Yung guy na "Jedadiah" sa Night at The Museum. Yung maliit. Hindi si Octavius. Tapos dun sa "Marley and Me", ung dog namatay. Huhuhu.

Umakyat si Dad sabi may text daw ako galing kay Adrienne.
"Cat, how are you going to EK?"
"Uh, I haven't texted Alexis yet. S'ya dapat eh."

Yun pala, malapit na si Alexis, Heinz, at Adrienne sa EK. Waa. Nakakahiya. Ayun, so pinick up nila ako dito sa bahay. Hahaha.

On the way to EK, medyo malunkot parin ako dahil dun sa dog na namatay. Binigyan ko si Adrienne ng coffee pagkababa namin ng EK. Meron rin ako. Nag-spill pa nga ung onti sa paa ko. Sayang. Buti hindi ako pusa na ni-lick yung paa ko. Haha. Kung pusa sana. Hahaha.

Ayon, nakita namin si Vya and Ralph, Jempots, and si Jane. Maya-maya, dumating na rin si Zyrille. Tapos kumuha kami ng ticket dun sa may booth. Libre sya.

Ngayon lang namin ni Alexis and Sharelle nalaman na may name pala ung wizard dun sa EK. Si 'Eldar' siya. Dati 'Merlin' tawag ko. Haha. Nahiya tuloy. Hahaha. Ang init dun sa entrance. Hinihintay kasi namin si Myco. Nagpapaganda sya. ;)

So ayun, nag photoshoot kami.

Hindi pinayagan ipasok ung brownies ni Zyrille kaya inubos namin. Pumunta muna kami sa Rio Grande. Wow. Haha. Tama pala ako na sa harap nung Rio Grande yung Flying Fiesta. :)

Pumunta muna kami dun sa kainan. Di ko alam kung ano yung tawag dun. Basta kainan sya. Tapos dun sa may dulo, andun yung para samin.

Merong sign na "Happy Birthday Angela" sa may window.

"Chicken? Chicken? Pork. Pork. Chicken. Pork."
"Ay, hindi. Spoon."

Ops. Ang corny! Hahaha! Ayun. Kumain ako ng Pork Barbeque. Sila Chicken. Masarap! Pero di ko naubos. Kasi (a) busog ako, (b) excited ako sa dessert, (c) wala ako sa mood kumain. Ang desert pala, Vanilla Icecream Cake na may Coffee toppings. San ka pa! So ayun, kinain ko yung toppings. Super saya. Hahaha.

Nag-cr ako. (Haha. Kaylangan ba 'to i-blog?) Basta pagkatapos, sinusundan ko lang sila Adrienne at Jane. Akala ko nauna na si Heinz. Pero hinihintay pala nya ako dun sa may CR. Oops. Hahah. Adrienne kasi. Nakita na nga daw nya eh. *fail* Sorry! DX

(Adrienne was hypnotized by the lady's purple dress. Or so we thought she was.)

So, yung first ride ay ang Rio Grande. Wow. Hahaha. Hindi sumama si Sharelle at si Alexis. Ayaw muna ata nila mabasa.

Nakakatawa ung mga pinapanood sa tv habang nakapila. Hahaha. Tapos, gamit PSP ni Adrienne, nag-video video kami. Ang kulit nung sign na:

"WATCH YOUR HEAD."

Pano kaya un. *tries*

Naghintay si Sharelle dun sa may exit sa taas para kunin ung PSP at yung bag ko. Dun sa pila nag palit na ako ng slippers. Ayon. Nahati kami. Ay-- hindi KAMI nahati. Nagkahiwalay kami. Kasi 7 lang kami. Eh 8 per raft, so si Adrienne, Heinz, Zyrille, Myco, at ako dun sa isang raft. Si Vya, Ralph, Jane, & Jempots (plus dalawang di namin kilala) dun sa isang raft.

Wow. Nabasa shorts ko. Plus, my back. Hahaha. Tapos, ayun-- routine! Flying fiesta! :P

Ayaw naman ni Adrienne sumama. So pinicturan nalang nya kami.

"Do nat poosh or pool other swings."

Haha. Masaya.

Pumunta kami dun sa may lockers para iiwan ung gamit namin. Para hindi hassle.

Pagkatapos nun, nag-arcade kami. Super ultra mega fail ako. Hahahaha.
Wag na natin pag-usapan. :p

Ayon, dun naman kami sa Anchors Awayy. Ayaw ULIT sumali ni Adrienne. :(
Hahahaha. Once lang. Nakapikit pa sya, umiiyak. Naka-kabit kay Jane. LOL. Mga 5 times ata kami sumakay nun. Pa-ulit ulit kami ni Vya, Alexis, Heinz.

Tips para makakuha ng seats sa dulo ng ship:
1. Pumila.
2. Pag nasa unahan ka na, tapos may mga tao na sa upuan na iyong ninanais, mag-hintay lang sa pila.
3. Paunahin yung mga tao sa likod para mag-mukhang mabait.
4. Pagkatapos mapuno, hintayin matapos yung turn nila. Ayun, sure na sa next turn, iyong iyo na yung upuan sa dulo.

O, diba? Hahaha.
May pasigaw sigaw pa kami na parang baliw. Ayos talaga.

Pagkatapos nun, SPACE SHUTTLE.
In my head:
Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!~ *pilit na binubuksan yung mata* AAAAHH! Nakabaliktad ako! AAAAAAAAAAAHH. God, I love my liiiife. Don't make me diiiieeee----*cough*---eee.

...

Ayun lang. :P Cool. Cool. Ayos ng buhok, flip. Smile ulit. Hinga.

Pagkatapos nun, na-ulit nanaman ung Rio Grande. Una sila Alexis. Sobrang tagal. Pagkababa nila, nagphotoshoot kami ni Adrienne dun malapit sa 4D.

Sunod, kaming lahat na. Yehey. :P This time, hindi ako nabasa. T^T
Pagkababa namin, Heinz saw his ex.

LMAO.
Hindi ko nakita.

"Bakit di mo pinakilala?"
Hahaha.

Ayii. Tingnan nyo si Ralph & Vya. LOL. So nagbihis muna sila Adrienne kasi basa sila. Sila Jane, umuwi na...

Kaya nag lakad muna kami. Hindi pa inuupload ni Adrienne ung ibang pictures kaya di ko mapakita ung mga pinagagawa namin.

Eto nalang. Bumili si Heinz ng shake sa may loob na store worth P60. Sa labas, masmalaki binebenta, P35 lang. Kainis diba? Hahahaha.

Pagkabalik nila Adrienne, kumain na kami. Actually, sila lang. Kasi... ayaw ko ulit kumain. (a) Masyadong masaya, (b) nahilo sa sunod-sunod na Anchors Away, (c) napatahimik sa Space Shuttle, (d) hindi kumakain ang basa na pusa.

Joke lang pala ung letter 'c'. Ung 'd' naman, theory lang. ;)

Tapos nanuod kami ng fireworks at nagTarot. Inaattempt ko rin hulaan ung secret text mate ni Alexis. Grrr. Fail.

Sabi nung tarot ni Alexis: "Grab the opportunity. It is the right time."
Secret yung sakin. Baka mapaluha kayo.

After they ate, mga 8:40 na ata yun. So nag last ride na kami sa ~~Pepi's~~ Ferris Wheel. Andun sa pila ulit yung ano ni Heinz. Magulo kami sa pila. Hahahaha.

Gondola #1

Iuupload ko palang yung sobrang astig naming Happy Birthday song para kay Zyrille. Nakay Adrienne pa eh.

Naffeel nyo ba minsan na makakalas yung gondola pag iniikot? Paranoid si Alexis. HAHAHAHA.

"I'm happy that you guys are all here."
Awww~♥

After that.. wala na. Umuwi na kami.
Joke lang. Nagpicture kami sa may fountain. Ang corny wala ako sa picture na to.

Ako nalang kasi nagvolunteer mag-photograph. Baka kasi pag sumali pa ako, umapaw ng kagandahan pa maslalo. OOPS! MAHANGIN! HAHAHA.

Hahaha. Joke lang un no! *pahumble kunyari*
Nag part ways na kami nila Zyrille & Myco sa may gate. Tapos super bangag namin sa Starbucks.

Ibang story na yun.
Nagustuhan nyo ba ung story ko? :)

Hihiga na ako. Ngayon lang ako nagblog ng mahaba na tagalog pa. Tag-lish.
Bakit kaya.

Impluwensya. T^T Hindi ko na to gagawin, ever! HAHAHA. *peace out*

At alam ko, kasama si Nicky sa lahat ng kalokohan namin.
Diba, Twinnee? ;)

The Greatest Inside Joke

Tuesday, March 31, 2009

Somewhere between the stress and the pressure,
I fell in-love with something that I used to take for granted.
I got attached to something I knew I wouldn't have in the next days.
And, the tragedy of it all does not end there.

Seeing the thing I've had beside me, though not absolutely my own, --

That little thing that could've been mine,
that great thing that could have been...

-- fade away...

Got me, undeniably, on my knees, shedding silent tears and asking the Lord to take it all back,
And start from scratch.
