Just a stranger in the bus
Finally got home from a looooong day in school.
I'm glad to announce to the whole wide world that my dear groupmates and I managed to cram our full research proposal in less than an hour. Hopefully by now Ma'am Daryl's reading our paper.. Hahaha. Now that's over, I could finally have some sleep since I'm over with my Math homework. I guess this sums up my day today, eh?
Oh wait. There's more.
During English class, Ma'am Annie told us that the WHOLE BATCH will present the Indian epic, 'Ramayana' in the 2nd Card Giving Day. I was quite skeptical why 90 people would be involved if the only characters are.. Rama.. Sita.. and the monkey. But Ma'am Annie pointed out that we need a big crew. A big crew means lots of people to make the costumes, props, setting, everything on stage. Angel told me that she wanted to direct the play and I said that I wanted to be in charge of the costumes and make-up (hahaha I usually do the make up on my batchmates that present dances in school.. that includes the guys!). It would be really cool to do the make up on the characters of Ramayana since I get to play with black eyeliner a lot, and I get to be creative and stuff. I plan to try out those make up tricks I see in high fashion magazines. Also, Ma'am Annie said that the guy who will play Rama MUST be dark skinned. So dark skinned male Juniors, get ready!
Also, we had this activity in which we wrote our names in a piece of paper then we'd pass the paper around. Then, people would write what they think of you. Here are some of the comments I got often..

- Cheerful
- Loves to blog
- Stylish (?)
and yes, the ever perpetual..
- FAT.
I'm really cool with the fact that people tell me I'm fat (like duh, I've heard it for more than a million times already!). But there are those days when I'm kinda emo then I kinda take things into my chest. Today's one of my semi-emo days due to the lack of sleep. Maybe I could catch up on my sleep tonight. Alleluia.

I bet more than half of the motherland watched the Pinoy Dream Academy finals night yesterday huh? If you did, did your ears bleed when Laarni sang? Sorry Laarni fans.. Her singing just ticks me off. I'm just one person who doesn't like her singing. So, don't mind me. Anyway.
I WAS TOTALLY ROOTING FOR BUGOY TO WIN BUT THEN, okay. Laarni won. Come on. Bugoy isn't the most handsome dude around but hey, he sings so damn fine and he dances so damn good he deserves to win yo! Laarni screams when she sings. And why oh why did Liezel not reach the top 3?
Hahaha my parents told me something on how Miguel got loads of text votes. I don't watch PDA at all but my parents do so I'm pretty updated. Anyway, to those who know how Miguel got those text votes, it's just lame. To some it might be 'desperate times call for desperate measures', but to me it's just being hands down PATHETIC, if what happened was really true.
Did I mention that people were already yelling 'Miguel' when they were about to announce the 3rd placer? Hahaha. Miguel's good looking and all.. He's got the talent.. But he doesn't have the charisma. For me. Hahaha I'm so biased.
So whatever results came out much to your dismay or the other way around, everything happens for a reason. I'm keeping my big mouth shut now. *zips mouth*
BUGOY'S GONNA BE MORE FAMOUS THAN ANY OF THEM, most likely. I'm placing my bet on that.
----------
I've been backtracking to the '90's during the weekend. I found myself listening to Joan Osborne's song 'One of Us' over, and over, and over again. I first heard this song when Marie Digby made a cover of it in her Youtube and I listened to it.. The song was already familiar to me so I searched for the video on Youtube and I found it. I saw a lot of comments saying that the song was blasphemous and all but, I don't think it isn't. Maybe it was the choice of words that made it sound blasphemous. Specifically this line..

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
God wasn't really being called a slob. The line was pointing out that, what if some person in the real world who's a slob was just God in disguise? Or what if that homeless man in the street was just God observing the way man lives? Or, what if he was that friend that you've just met? Or maybe he's just the guy whom you sat next to in the jeep.
God created us in His own image, as stated in the book of Genesis. Therefore, God is in each and every one of us. I guess that points it all out.
----------
What the hell did I take in my tummy today..
Breakfast - crab stick omelette with rice
Recess - a brownie and apples
Lunch - fish with rice
Merienda - juice, kwek kwek and penoy
Dinner - ham sandwiches and a slice of papaya
Errr okay. Better cut down during merienda and dinner. MUST. WORK. OUT.
----------
If God had a name, what would it be and
Would you call it to His face?
I don't know. You answer it for me!

Yoochoob
I am finally done with ALL my written assignments for this week. That is the draft for Research, the final copy of our composition in Filipino, Chem lab report (I HATE THIS LAB REPORT REALLY) and that thingy sa 1/2 for English. I haven't memorized even half of Like The Molave! Darrrrrn.
Not yet Rizal, not yet; Sleep not in peace
There are a thousand waters to span
There are a thousand mountains to cross
There are a thousand crosses to be borne
Our shoulders are not strong; our sinews have
Grown flaccid with dependence; smug with ease
Under another's wing; Rest not in peace
Okay hanggang diyan pa lang namememorize ko. Nakakatamad talaga. As in, sobra. Ang ayaw ko talaga sa Chem labrep was hindi masyado madali intindihin ang redox reactions (para sa akin ha). I had to consume all my time looking for helpful references sa net but kahit na ok naman ang explanation sa net, wala parin ako naiintindihan. It's easier to learn kung may nagtuturo talaga. So hopefully tomorrow, maituro na sa amin ang redox reactions.
So after finishing all my requirements, I watched Hangeul Island (FT Island's show that was shot during their stay in Japan) on Youtube! Thank God na may English subs na. Matuturuan na din ako ni Wonbin magsalita ng Korean. Hahaha. So far, I only got to watch the 1st two episodes dahil tinatamad na rin ako manood. I actually got to learn two phrases in Korean. One was taught by Hongki and the other was taught by Wonbin. These are:
Sa ja reul ki woo da -- I keep a lion (taught by Hongki)
Woori Yeongwonhi Gachi Hamggeh Haja -- Let's stay together forever (taught by WONBIN)
Wala laaang. Naaliw ako sa tinuro ni Wonbin. Hehehe so very sweet. Sabi pa nga nya sa video to say it to all of your loved ones. Lol. XDDD Tska kanina, I posted a message sa message board ng Pops In Seoul promoting Paradiso. WE SERIOUSLY NEED A LOT OF ADVERTISING. So yun, naisip ko na magpost sa Pops In Seoul message board. Sana mabasa ni VJ Isak on TV ang message! SANA LANG PLEAAAASE. Ate Nins also posted a message. Hehehe. ;D
----------
Remember Jung Sungha? That 11 yr old Korean kid who's good in playing the guitar? Guess what. He played 'Anak' by Freddie Aguilar and posted it on Youtube (actually, it's his dad who posts the videos on Youtube.. I think). A lot of Filipinos actually commented on the video and they really liked it. Even I liked it. Sungha's rendition of Anak is really captivating. Magaling talaga siya na bata. Kaso nga lang sa video, wala si Sungha mismo na tumutugtog ng gitara tapos ang video is parang seashore lang. Pero sige nalang. Maganda naman yung music eh. Hehehehe. Here's the video if you want proof. XD

It's blarrrrrrd
Today is Saturday - Saturn's day. Hehehe. I woke up at around 8:30 already because I slept at around midnight last night. Before eating breakfast, I drank Psyllium (tama spelling) fiber so that I won't go hungry easily. Psyllium fiber is helpful in weight loss since it's a natural fat absorber. So for it to be used for weight loss, it must be taken in 30 minutes before eating. So yun ginawa ko. 30 minutes later, I wasn't that hungry so I resulted in eating Skyflakes with tuna. Yum. After eating breakfast, I took a bath since I'd be meeting Hannah and the rest at GMall. Manglibre si Hannah sa Pizza Hut kase birthday nya sa Tuesday. Wohoo! Then I got a text from Angel asking kung what time and where manglibre si Hannah kase gusto niya magsurprise entrance. Hehehe. I remember her telling us na di daw siya payagan. Anyway, while dressing up, I got to watch Pops In Seoul after I do not know how many years. I got to listen to some cool new songs (new for me since I'm not that updated in Kpop, except for FT Island related things) like One by Epik High (their MV has Jeong Ryu Won, the actress who played Kim Sam Soon!) and M Style by Lee Min Woo. Also, I got to see a glimpse of one of Rain's music videos when he was still the Justin Timberlake of South Korea (I think he still is now but it was more evident before. haha). The video was How To Escape The Sun and his dance moves were just, woah. It's better to watch Rain in his music videos dancing than seeing him dance in Clear commercials, seriouslyyy. Lmao. Want proof? Here's the music video!
AND YES. I got to see the Wonder Girls too!
It's Ahn So Hee! Haha.
While watching the show, I learned about a new portion there that you could tell a story of what's up with your life then request a song and if you have been chosen, you could win a prize! The story featured there was from kirihara from the Philippines (KABABAYAN NATIN ITO! WOHOO) and she shared something about her sister getting married (not sure about this, but something like it) and she requested One by Epik High. Madami talaga nanonood ng Pops In Seoul. Superrrr. Hahaha. Which is a good thing, by the way. Tumataas na ang chances na pumunta dito ang FT Island! Yeheeeey. So, I plan to join that whatever you call it thing in the show and I just wish I get chosen so that I could promote Paradiso. Talk about widespread advertising. Anyway, we left right after my dad got dressed since malelate na ako sa lakad ko.
When I got to GMall, the first one I saw was Hannah. So, we waited for the others. The others who came were Ate Danica, Darlene, Robien, Kuya Mitch and Roeland. Jp came in next, then Angel made her surprise entrance. Hahaha. We ordered 1 Cheesy Pops, 2 Triple Stuffed Crust (all 3 pizzas were Super Supreme), 3 Caesar Salads and I had a Black Forest for my drink. Siguro this means na hindi na dapat ako maging kuripot pagka nanglibre ako sa birthday ko.. Hehehe. Hannah, thanks sa libre!!! :) And duuuh. We camwhored again. Alangan eh. Hahaha.

After eating, Kuya Mitch had to leave since magtuturo pa siya ng Kids training sa Holiday. Paglabas namin, may nakita kaming tarp ni John Lloyd Cruz and napagtripan namin magpapicture dun kase sabi ni Ate Danica HOT DAW si John Lloyd. Hahahaha!
While on our way to the 2nd floor to get a pic taken sa Yoyong's, we ran into Shi-Em! (si JM, actually. haha). Tapos biglang nawala si Robien (ulit). When we got to the second floor, napagtripan namin pumasok sa loob ng Adidas kase may posters dun ng players ng Ateneo and Lasalle. Hehehe. Swerte ang AdMU and DLSU kase sponsor nila ang Adidas and they have really nice jackets. Lmao. And duuuuh. More camwhoring. Hehehe.
After that, we went to iCenter first to get Jp's iPod fixed and we also got to look around. Darrrrn. Nakita ko na yung iPod ko is 6k nalang and I got it for 13k. Oh welllll. That's life. Hahaha. And we got to take a picture using the Macbook Air displayed there. It wasn't as thin as I expected it to be but it was really nice. Apparently, a lot of people who tried using the Macbook Air on display took pics of themselves too using its built in camera. Hahaha.
After going to the iCenter, we went to Yoyong's to have our picture taken. Naaliw kami sa mga stuffed toys, mas lalo na si Roeland na sobrang aliw kay Snoopy. He looked like a lost little boy. LMAO.
After having our pic taken, may nakita akong store na nagbebenta ng shutter shades. So, I called Ate Danica's attention and the both of us hurriedly went inside. Hahaha unfortunately, they only sold the shades in red and green. Gusto sana namin white. Anyway, after that, we parted ways kase pupuntang Holiday si Dar, Hannah and Roeland, nagsama si Jp and Angel tapos sumama si Ate Danica sa akin dahil sabi ng dad ko na pupunta kami sa SM and may lakad si Ate Danica dun. So Ate Dan and I went to Pancake House and nung nakita namin sina Angel and Jp, sumama kami papuntang NBS but Ate Dan told me na mauna na siya kase baka malate siya sa kanyang lakad. So I went to NBS with Angel and Jp. I asked the customer service kung may Twilight na (for the nth time!) kaso wala pa daw. BOOHOO. Then I went to the books section to check out some books. I saw some Murakami books that seem interesting and I also saw some Tagalog romance novels (you know those really cheap ones? yeah those) with Angelina Jolie, Keira Knightley and Gisele Bündchen on the cover. OKAAAAY that was weird. Tska nagpakafeeling photographer nanaman ako so I took pics again. Waaah.
Nakita din namin si Ma'am Jenny sa NBS! Hehehe. After a while, I left na rin kase I sensed na my dad was done eating and timing talaga when I met my dad again in Pancake House kase he was done paying the bill and was about to leave na rin. So we went to SM to do the groceries. In the Fish section, I saw this super duper big fish with big scary eyes. As in it was positioned na parang center of attention siya. If you were there at SM supermarket kanina, you'd get what I mean, unless nabenta na siya at di mo na naabutan. Hehehe. Ohyeah, I saw Ma'am Janice there. Nagulat ako kase someone suddenly poked my tummy tapos yun pala si Ma'am Janice. Plus, I got used to seeing her in GMall. Lol. Anyway, here's the big fishie I've been talking about.
Cher Marie Tuazon, this is for you! Hahaha.While my dad was gonna pay for the stuff we bought, I went to NBS to buy stuff that I needed for school. I saw a pen with pink ink! And no, it isn't a MyGel pen. It's Stabilo. Hahaha. After going to NBS, I went back to the grocery to meet my dad again and umalis na kami. We went to Damosa to pick up the laundry and we also went to the Swiss Deli to buy salad greens there and some other food stuff. After that, my dad told me that I drive when we get inside the village so that I could learn more. So went we got into the village, my dad and I switched seats and I drove our car. Don't believe me?
Believe me now. Haha. 3 months nalang pwede na ako! Yay.When we got to the house, I brought all the stuff we bought and the laundry down with our maid and I went upstairs to finish my homework. So far, I already encoded my draft for Research and I'll do more fixing tomorrow. I also got to memorize like, 4 lines of Like The Molave and I've done until the data part of my Chem lab report. Maybe after this, I'd encode my composition in Filipino. Maybe I'd just cram my Chem lab report tomorrow since ideas come out of my mind easily when I cram. Hehehe. After that, I didn't each much for dinner and now I'm still stuck here. Roflmao. XD
And the reason why I didn't train is because I'm too damn tired. There's too much stuff to do. Also, we planned to join the Emcor badminton tournament this August. Okay lang sumali kase wala naman masyadong gagawin by that time. Partner ko si Hannah. Magpartner si Angel and Darlene, and Robien and Jp. Sasali kami ng Level F I think.. HAHAHA! =))
----------
While surfing on Youtube, I came across this video while searching the MV of Make A Wish by Ellegarden. It's a Korean girl playing songs using her electric violin. Absolutely AMAZING. She has videos playing Canon Rock, Tears In Heaven and other stuff. And she even has the theme song of Friends! Lol. I highly recommend watching it! Dunno what her name is though. T_T By the way, she has the 6th most subscribed channel in South Korea. I wonder if the placed here on Star King already.. Haha.
