Alam mo ba?

19.2 kbps lang ang connection speed ko pero gumagana ng matino ang mga sites. Nakapag Ym pa ko. Astig. HIndi ko nga lam na posible palang magkaron ng 19.2 kbps na speed at gagana ang browser.


Nabasa ko sa blog ni ay_lin: YUng lalaki asa US, tapos yung babae asa Pilipinas, nanghula ng number yung lalaki, ang nahulaang number ay kay babae, naging mag textmates sila. Umuwi ng Pilipinas ang lalaki. Nag-EB sila nung babae. Naging sila. Nagpakasal. Garden wedding. True story 'to. Astig, parang pelikula. Posible na pala ang ganun ngayon. Akala ko sa mga magazine at romance stories lang nangyayari yun.


"Manghula na rin kaya ako ng number?"


Kaya lang pano pala kung yung soulmate mo eh hindi cellphone user? Pano kung Mangyan o kaya Igorot yung soulmate mo? HIndi rin pala effective...

Monsters of the Ice

At last, gumana na ulit itong Blogger... medyo nabobo yata siya dahil sa sobrang dami ng nangahas na gumawa ng blog. Marahil dahil sa sobrang bagot dahil bakasyon o di kaya naman nahook lang sa blogging frenzy... parang ako!

Tapos na ang first of four depts sa chem at math. Natapos nung Monday. Hanggang ngayon walang katiyakan ang kahihinatnan ko sa Haying Kapnayan (Organic Chemistry). Bahala na. Nagsiswimming pa rin sa utak ko ang ang aldehydes, ketones, ethers, sp3, sp2, sp, double bond, triple bond, james bond (?)... lahat sila. Langoy lang ng langoy di rin naman naabsorb ng pangmatagalan. Ang di ko lang mawari ay kung gaano ko kabilis namememorya ang channel line-ups at palabas sa mga tv stations, local at cable, ganun naman kabagal kong namememorize ang formula at concepts sa chem. Buhay nga naman.

Nung Monday na lang ulit kami lumanghap ng simoy ng Robison's. BInago nanaman yung pintuan kung saan dapat papasok at lalabas. May bagong kainan din- Ice MOnster! Syempre porque bago kailangan naming subukan. May malaking poster sa harap ng Ice MOnster kung saan nakalgay kung ano yung mga tinda nila. Tumigil kami sa harap nun. AYos. Nahalatang first time namin. Bago sa jologs naming panlasa ang tunog sosyal na Ice Monster. Nakaramdam rin kami, kaya umupo na lang kami sa isang malapit na mesa. Ooops >singhot<.. ano yun? naaamoy niyo ba? Yuuuuuckk. Ang bahoooo! Lipat tayo. Kadiri amoy panis. Wala bang service crew dito? At nagulo ang buong Ice MOnster public. Lumipat kami ng lamesa. Dun kami sa mas maliit. Apat kami pero nagkasya kami sa pandalawahang lamesa. Ayos ang seseksi namin. Meron naman palang miniature version nung poster na tinitignan namin kanina sa mga mesa. Iyon naman ang pinagdiskitahan, dinuro-duro hanggang sa maisipang umorder. Umorder kami. Ano ito? Naubusan raw ng yelo?! Hindeeee... Kinukuha pa pala.

Kung tutuusin mahal ang isang serving ng ice monster mula 60 hanggang 90 piso ang budget. Meron ring mini version 45-50 piso pero huli na ng malaman naming meron pala nun. Malaki ang serving. Ice monster nga talaga kasi parang monster ang kakain. Mukhang masarap. Maganda ang presentation. Maraming yelo. Ang rami namang yelo nito... Kaya nga ice monster eh! Mukhang sosyal. Aba asenso na tayo ngayon. Ang sosyal na natin. Dati pa mcdo-mcdo lang. Sabay sabing Sana nag-Chowking na lang tayo... Sa susunod, na pag-usapan pa namin na dapat bawat linggo may kakainan naman kaming medyo sosyal. May theme every week. Date 'yun.

Hindi yata sanay ang sikmura ko sa sosyal foods (kahit na hindi naman masyading sosyal yun!)dahil sumakit ang ulo ko pagkatapos. Major brainfreeze. Naramdaman ko ring parang gusto kong masuka. Pero dahil iyon sa nakaupo ako sa balcony ng bus pauwi kung saan matagtag ang biyahe.

Hindi nga pala ako binayaran ng Ice Monster para mag advertise.

Eto na naman. Nararamdaman ko na ang CWTS Syndrome. Yung tinatamad kang pumasok dahil tanghali na at feeling mo wala ng klase. Hindi naman pwede umabsent kasi hindi na nga ako nagbabasa ng module, hindi pa ko makikinig sa klase. Ewan ko lang kung saan ako pupulitin pag ganon. Isa lang ang masasabi ko dyan: "Tinatamad ako!". :) what's new?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Hindi ko nga pala naabot yung isa sa mga short term goals ko. tsk tsk. kulang sa aral sa majors. sana mapagbigyan next tym.. pero mukhang malabo. ang totoxic ng mga subjects namin next sem. parang tanga. sabay-sabay sila lahat. haay bahala na. live each day at a time.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


For some reason, down ang server ko kagabi at ayaw lumabas ng google at yahoo at higit sa lahat ayaw mag-appear nung mga blogs. akala ko nasira ko na yung browser namin. buti na lang hindi :p. Kung wala pala kayong magawa at gusto niyong matakot search niyo to: Grigori Rasputin. Nakakatakot ang itsura niya. Pero in fairness kamukha niya yung isang lalaki sa System of a Down. YUng mga tao nung time ni Rasputin ay naniniwala na meron siyang healing powers. creepy... try ko ipost yung picture niya if i have time.

This will be the end. :: TTFN

New Template

I really had to change templates after all. The pink layout got busted and I don't have the time to do the necessary repairs so I opted to post a new template. Bummer! I sooo liked that pink one.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Not really much going on in my dull, boring and pathetic life now. I'm currently enrolled in summer class and am taking Chemistry and Math subjects. Chemistry, as usual, is frightening with all the C's (symbol for Carbon) and H's (element 1). And Math would always be Math.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Wait. Will you look at that annoying banner? Irksome. It should've been perfect if not for that stupid banner.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Because I, again, had nothing better to do I randomly clicked my mouse on some of sed's blog links and I found out through these tests that :

Take the Girlfriend Quiz at www.kidzworld.com!


A Dream GF!

You're a definite keeper. You're not needy or clingy and you're almost as much fun to be around as one of the guys! You know exactly how much space your guy needs and how to keep your own groove on while in a relationship.

Wow! And to check the accuracy of that result. I took another similar test:

What Kind of Girlfriend Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla

-Perfect-
You're the perfect girlfriend. Which means you're rare or that you cheated :P You're the kind of chick that can hang out with your boyfriend's friends and be silly. You don't care about presents or about going to fancy placed. Hell, just hang out. You're just happy being around your boyfriend.

That's from two different tests!

This will be the end. :: TTFN

Darn 2/ Help!

I forgot to post Darn 1. It disappeared. I copy pasted my new template on the template tab and clicked on preview but the stupid blogger ad banner kept showing up. It is the rip on the otherwise perfect dress that is my new template. If you happen to know how to get rid of that ad, please tell me. I really want to have an ad-free template.

American Idle

Either I'm so hooked with American Idol or I just had nothing else better to do. I watched both reruns of AI and I checked out idolonfox.com. Fantasia has pretty bad reviews. She can sing and all but maybe, all the praises crept into her head and it has blown up a little already. I don't know if anyone has noticed but she didn't handle Simon's critiscisms very well. She was, in fact, a little pikon and she tries to hide it but idoes a sucky job at it. I think, Ryan Seacrest felt it too. She has that personality thingy working for her, though and she can sing so maybe she'll be on the show long enough, maybe she'll be on the final 6 or 5, even.

People today don't have Good Fridays like we used to have them when we were younger. I remember when Biyernes Santo seemed so solemn that we were scolded by Tita Arce when we laughed a teeny bit loud. Or how my Tita Fe would tell us to take a bath early because when 12 noon strikes, they told us, we were already forbidden to bathe because Jesus was about to die. I didn't quite got the logic there but as a child, of course, I believed them because they're older and I thought they know better. I also grew up on the belief that when you get wounded on Good Friday, it would take your wounds a very long time to heal because supposedly, since Jesus is dead, his healing powers are down. I remember me and my cousins took extra care in playing or not play at all during Good Friday because we were afraid we'd get wounded. Before, you were supposed to be sad on Good Friday even if you don't feel like being sad at all , that's why we say, "parang Biyernes Santo ang mukha mo" whenever we see someone look really gloomy.
But now, Good Friday was just like any other day. In fact, in our street, children seemed to be noisier and numerous than usual like there was some conspiracy that they'd all go out at once you'll be puzzled where all the kids have come from. It could be because of cable TV and the internet that we don't fell much of Good Friday anymore. It was one thing to do away with silly beliefs but another to take away the solemnity of Good Friday.

What's maunday about thursday?

hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin alam ang ibig sabihin ng salitang "maundy". nagsimba kami kanina dahil nga maundy thursday. taun-taon naman kaming nagsisimbatuwing huwebes santo pero ngayon lang ako nagtaka dun sa pagrere-enact ng paghuhugas ni Hesus ng mga paa ng mga disipulo niya. yung pari, siya yung gaganap na Jesus tapos hahakot ng labindalawang laymen para gumanap na disipulo. in full costume pa. sabi nila para raw maalala natin na maging "of service to others" katulad ng ginawa ni Hesus. tapos yung mga nagsisimba manonood kung papano huhugasan nung pari yung mga paa nung "disipulo" niya. dahil rin sa sakit ng tiyan at hindi sagarang paniniwala sa tradisyong ito, hindi rin ako tumayo para panoorin yung "play" nila.

Nagpagupit na 'ko

pero mas maikli kaysa sa inaasahan ko... short hair na tuloy ulit ako. arrgh! curse that Allan gay!lesson learned: 'wag masyadong maengross sa pagbabasa ng magazine tungkol kay posh spice at david beckham sa parlor habang nagpapagupit.

I'm an AI fan too

jasmine kinda sucked on last night's American Idol country song presentation. it could've been the song. Breathe is one of the songs you'll enjoy listening to or even singing along with but never a contest-ish type of song, i think. on the other filipina, camille, i think she sings well (first time i heard her sing today) but her nerves are showing. can't blame her though. yeah right, don't i sound like paula abdul now? :) but the performance that sucked big time was matthew's. it sucked bigger than he is. the puppy dog look wasn't at all working for him. he looked like a muscular homosexual (no offense to gay people. i love gay people). again, it's the song. an upbeat song would've sounded better for him. while i waswatching his performance, it felt like watching Carlos Agassi do drama. a definite, definite YUCK!

guess, you've received this e-mail not just once. it made me think.. try to think about it too.

THINK ABOUT THIS:
1. At least 5 people in this world love you so much they would die for you.
-- 5? i can only think of 3 and i'm not so sure about 1. my mom and dad and let's count Jesus too.

2. At least 15 people in this world love you, in some way.
-- more than 15 naman siguro dahil extended family pa lang.. marami na.

3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you, is because they want to be just like you.
-- kawawa naman yung isang yun. lahat naman ng gusto niya maging, ako pa. how pathetic

4. A smile from you, can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
-- yeah whatever.

5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
-- really? kaya pala di ako makatulog e. hehe

6. You mean the world to someone.
-- awww... nakakaintriga 'to ha! hehe.

7. Without you, someone may not be living.
-- oa..

8. You are special and unique, in your own way.
-- i know. hehe (kapal ba?)

9. Someone that you don't know even exists, loves you.
-- downright creepy...

10. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
-- maybe.

11. When you think the world has turned it's back on you, take a look, you most likely turned your back on the world.
-- kewl.

12. When you think you have no chance at getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, you probably sooner or later will get it.
-- damn. so cliche.

13. Always remember complements you received, forget about the rude remarks.

14. Always tell someone how you feel about them, you will feel much better when they know.
-- talaga? kakashy e

15. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they're great.



*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*



Whatever*

i was going through stuff under my bed matress when i came across a wish list i wrote probably a month ago when i was feeling depressed (i did?!)and i desperately wanted to put order in my life. i don't quite understand how a wish list could tidy up my messy college life but at least, you would know what to give me for my birthday. deviations from the said list would still be appreciated. i could definitely feel my face blow up now...
WISH LIST:
1) laptop
2) digicam
3) ipod
4) unlimited free DSL access
5) plasma TV (at least 21' but bigger would be better) or an LCD projector
6) cd ng Silverchair (yung greatest hits o kaya lahat ng titles pede rin)
7) drumset! (nyek)
8) optional: supply ng walang side-effect na whitening pills (kung meron man)

this is my wish list, my literal wish list. everything's just a wish... it could come true but i doubt if it would. >sigh!<
under the wish list, i wrote a list of my long term goals.

LONG TERM GOALS:
1) maka-graduate ng BS Nursing sa 2007
2) magkaron ng master's degree
3) magkaron ng PhD (kung single pa ko at age 29)
4) to travel the world
5) have an extensive CD collection (nyek! with all the piracy i'm doing, this is quite impossible.)

i think it's a pretty reasonable list but in case i don't reach these, i'll make another one.

opposite my long term goals i wrote:

SHORT TERM GOALS:
1) maging CS (ahem.. pagbigyan na. libre naman e.)
2) maka 1.75 sa mga N subjects
3) maipasa ang Chem 31 sa summer at Chem 40 next sem
4) mapanood ang Passion of the Christ
5) have a Silverchair cd

and i think i want to take them all back... i don't work under pressure, you know.

And I'm back in the game...
For some time, I hated my blog. I hated it so much that I wanted to delete it. Good thing, my internet account ran out and I didn't get to have the chance to do it.

Sibling Warfare
Bad trip. Mahaba-haba na rin yung na-type ko last week na come-back blog kaya lang sa buwisit ng nanay ko dahil sa sibling war namin binunot niya yung saksakan ng AVR. Poof! Syempre namatay yung computer. Ni-reboot ko kaya lang dahil sa sobrang inis at panghihinayang, tinamad na 'kong ulitin 'yon. Ang nakakainis pa nakagamit tuloy ng telepono ang ungas. Lumalabas, ako ang talunan. Arrgh. Pero ang weird kasi kahit na sobrang dapat mainis ako o di kaya naman magalit, wala akong naramdaman. Oo, medyo, nainis ako pero medyo lang. Hindi outrage katulad ng inaasahan ko sa ganong mga pagkakataon. Hindi ko tuloy alam kung immune na lang talaga ako, naging manhid na ko sa dami ng bagay na dapat kong ikainis o kaya talagang mabait lang ako, period. Sana lang..
