~All Bottled Up... Not!

2010-07-12T02:00:00.002+08:00

The other day, my dad loaded his Gone with the Wind DVD in the player with the speakers on full blast. I wasn't interested at first so I wore the headphones to listen to my sister's daily kpop playlist but I couldn't help but watch. The movie is so interesting - no, it was SO GOOD! I really liked Scarlett O'Hara's character because I can (OMG, eto na, t'o! ang kapal haha) somehow relate to her. I used to be a spoiled brat (my dad says I still am) like the young Scarlett. That's my problem - I'm still stuck at being a brat - and I want to grow so fucking much. It hurts me so much whenever things don't go my way or "according to my plans". I'm just cunning but I'm not strong-willed enough to do the things that I want to do. I want to forget my own Mr. Wilkes or meet Mr. Butler to get me out of this rut (two words: unrequited love). I don't care if he's a bad boy just as long as he is charming and he'll be there whenever I need him. Oh my God, what am I saying?

2010-07-08T00:57:00.002+08:00

I have a freaking lump on my neck the size of a twenty-five cent coin. I'm not sure if it's just a huge pimple waiting to emerge coz it's kinda deeper beneath the skin. It's like a slanted/misaligned adam' apple! My sister said it could be a swollen node but we kept it a secret from my dad coz he'll surely freak out.

God, let this be a pimple or a swollen node... I hate hospitals!

-------------

I'm praying for something. Hope I'll get an email... I promise I'll be good. :/

2010-06-28T23:19:00.002+08:00

Ugh! what an episode today.. di ko alam kung matutuwa ako or malulungkot. Di ko alam kung matutulog ba ako or kakanta na lang nung LSS ko na kanta ni Christina Milian.

Ugh.

2010-05-06T23:45:00.001+08:00

My neck feels so weird. It's been two week since it started. There's this uneasy feeling and it always makes me want to wince just to lessen the numb/stiff/tight/whatever sensation. I dont know if it has something to do with my nerves or if it's connected to the headache and dizziness I felt last week. I think it's better to see a doctor than to search "weird neck" on google XD. I'll do it after the election.

-------------------------

I'm happy that I can be of service to my community. I accepted the task because of the money but after a few days, I realized that the financial gain is just a bonus - I was given the opportunity because they know that I can do it. I'm excited and a little nervous. I hope there wont be any problems.

---------------------

When I get the full payment for my summer job, I'll lend it to my sister so that she can use it for her business. She's saving up for U-kiss' concert on the 29th. She's been sulking since last month coz our dad wont buy her a ticket. My sister has never been to a concert before. If mom' still here, she'll definitely find a way for my sister to see her favorite artist.

I know how it feels when all you want in the whole world is to see your favorite boy band. I sulked, stomped my feet and refused to talk to my dad whenever he said he'll never buy me and my elder sis concert tickets to BSB / boyzone / westlife. I was a bratty teenager but still, my mom supported me in my fangirling days. A day before Westlife or Boyzone's concert, she'll say "Let's watch their concert tomorrow! Don't worry, I'll ask dad - He'll never say NO to me hehe". She would also call the nearest record store if they already have stocks of BSB's album on the day of its release. She even sent a fax message to Moffatt's local distributor/record company asking if they could give me and my sister backstage passes to their mall tours. Yes, my mom is so cool! <3

There's still a few weeks left before the concert. I hope she'll make use of the time and the money I'll give her to earn her enough cash to buy a good seat. :>

Brought my cat and her precious little kitty to a veterinary clinic that a friend recommended. It was the nearest animal clinic to our house. It takes two jeepney rides to get to the clinic where we used to bring our cats and dogs. My cat, that poor cutie has never ever set foot outside of the house and is not used to travelling (she was squirming and crying inside her travelling bag!) so going to my friend's vet is the best option. The vet- she was very nice and funny. My cat will be taking antibiotics for seven days to cure her Mastitis while the kitty's under a strict diet because she's undernourished (she can't drink her mommy's milk anymore *sad*) and was also prescribed an eyedrop medicine.

My wallet's weeping but haaaayy... good thing we brought them to the vet. Anything for my little queen!

2010-03-01T11:50:00.001+08:00

Something's up. I know when someone's harboring ill feelings toward me, when someone's backstabbing me. How? I can feel it even if they're a few cities away from me. It's in the way people write their text messages and emails. When they're in front of me, I see it in their eyes. I sense their guilt.

haaaaay. : (

My throat hurts. Parang nagvideoke ako ng ilang oras kahit na hindi. Malapit na birthday ko, andyan na naman ang birthday blues. I feel so old. Mid-life crisis, please go away!

Well anyway, bakit ba parang napakahirap na ikaw ang mag make ng first move? Andun na ang opportunity, nahihiya pa akong sunggaban. Haaaaay... ewan ko sayo. Ayoko na, ikaw naman ang humabol. chos! (inarte mode) *3*

I need a salt gargle.

Yes, I googled it when a friend asked me that question. I also wanted an answer.

So cute! ♥

---------------------

It's gotten chilly during night time since the last week of October. It's good that I can sleep well on cold nights but I'm not too happy about it.. I just realized that I've always felt that way even when I was a little kid. :(

2009-10-25T03:55:00.001+08:00

I can't sleep. I have a toothache.. and ok, I'll admit it, I still want to play some facebook games! My sisters are into this game called Rock Riot (or something like that) and they've been hogging the internet the whole day yesterday. I can only use the computer when one of them is already sleeping (vacant computers, I kinda feel like I'm renting a PC at my own house lol XD). I'm usually the one hogging the PC or laptop at home (yes, I have no life, so sad :/) so this is ummm, a little unbearable. Internet withdrawal syndrome much?

Darnit, they already fixed the mystery-box-refresh-glitch-thing in Pet Society! I heard they also removed the watering points in Country Story. I'm biased to cute games that's why I always play Playfish games but but but... oh man, the changes are making me want to just play Farmville or that Cafe game that slows down my computer.

Oh well, there's still Poupee Girl and Tinierme (although they're not facebook games, they're really adorable! ♥)

2009-10-14T17:30:00.001+08:00

I hate the weather. I also think that the weather hates me. One day it's hot-yuck-i'm-sweating-sunny, the next day it's cold-i-need-to-pee-several-times-a-day-raining. My allergy, God, my allergy is acting up like there's no tomorrow! My nose is running like a faucet! It's so embarrasing, I don't wanna leave snot-filled tissues everywhere. I don't want to take a medicine today coz I'm already feeling a little sick of the cold weather (allergy medicines just just weaken me so much). I'm going to run out of effective antihistamines so I'm saving them for future allergy attacks. Plus, I don't want to feel any drowsiness, not now, coz I'm reading an awesome manga.

Gantz. I'm excited for the live-action movie starring Nino and MatsuKen. Despite the gore, sex and violence, it's a great manga. And I just realized that after reading a few chapters, I'm already addicted to it. I'm still on chapter 184... 3122341243242 chapters to go! D:

My acid reflux is still acting up but that's ok. I got free Pantecta tablets, thanks to my sweet and generous aunt.

I'm so happy with the good news that I received just now. My friend is safe, thank God! Because he's living alone in an apartment, he didn't have enough time to save his stuff and had to rush out to go to a higher place. He lost everything and that's the reason why we couldn't contact him since saturday. He's staying with his neighbors, very kind neighbors. I have to wake up early to inform the others. Oh, Thank God!

Awful awful things happened because of thr typhoon Ondoy. Had to stay upstairs coz of the knee-high flooding inside our house; hip-deep out in our area. I'm just thankful that my family's safe, our pets - a little scared of the flood, hungry coz we ran out of food and supplies - but safe and dry. There's no Globe signal and our relatives in Mindanao were worried sick coz my dad couldn't reply to their text messages.

I suddenly realized that most of my former officemates live in either Pasig, Cainta, or other places in Rizal. I really hope that all of their families are also safe. Texted my friend who's living in a boarding house in Cainta and learned she got stranded in Ortigas Extension from 12pm afternoon Saturday until 8pm last night, the flood having reached five feet.

Watching the news is heartbreaking. And for some weird reason, I can't get rid of this uneasy feeling in my gut. I don't even know why. :(

2009-07-27T22:27:00.001+08:00

Bumaha sa bahay namin kahapon. First time nakakita ng tubig na umaalon sa loob ng bahay ng mga pusa namin. Na-shock yung pusa ko kasi mahimbing ang tulog nya tapos paggising nya, natulala sya and nataranta dahil sa tubig. They were all smart though- they stayed on the sofa and tables to keep themselves dry haha. Chicken Sopas for dinner.

OUR COMPUTER DIED. Hindi ma-detect yung hard disk T.T Dad offered to have it fixed pero sabi namin next time na lang pag di na sya busy.

felt a little sick this morning. My back ached so I asked my sister to give me a massage. It didn't work. My dad tried din pero wala ding nangyari. I also have sores in my mouth. Oh no, ayokong magkasakit. :(

BLAH

2009-07-25T01:23:00.001+08:00

I should be sleeping but I guess it's fun when I can type without any distractions.. I mean, it's the dead of the night so everyone else are asleep. I've been thinking a lot lately. Well, except for my being a lazy bum and a hermit, there are other things that I think about especially when I'm about to sleep.

I've always thought that I was naive when it comes to certain things. I thought it's cool to just live free, to not worry about what's going on with my life or what's in store for me in the future. I've discussed it with a few friends, thought it's just some hormonal thing, just PMS whenever I get bothered about it but I realized that I AM lonely afterall. It's been a long time since I felt this way. I thought I have forgotten but I think I was just taking a rest with the *ehem* "lovelife" stuff (or the lack of it). I thought I have finally moved on but I still get jealous whenever I hear a single detail about him- who he's been seeing, his crushes, or that girl whom he's still hung up on. I'm not in a hurry to fall in love with another person again but I WANT to forget about him as soon as possible. I need to get out more. Come to think of it, my family and friends think I look paler now coz I don't get to much sun. Nah, I think it's just my heart- it needs to pump more blood to my face. Oh my poor heart! XI

hmmm.. this new keyboard sure is nice. The letter Ps and Bs in my words aren't missing anymore.

What happened to NHK's schedule? I DIDN'T GET TO SEE SAKURAI SHO ON OUR TELEVISION! huhu. I always watch Shounen Club Premium at exactly 9:15pm on our living room clock, I waited from 8:30pm until 10pm but there's no Sakurai Sho, no Kokubun Taichi on TV, only an Eco show with Domoto Tsuyoshi, Ai Otsuka and TVXQ. Dammit, I even begged my sister to pay the cable man on time so that we won't have any problems with the cable reception (heck, it's already been yeaaaaars since we last had a non-cable TV at home). I wanted to flail so much it hurts (haha exag!).

Oh well, at least Dad got the PC fixed yesterday. I'll just wait for some kind people who'll translate it and then imma download it.

-------------------------------------------

I want cake.

hmmmmm.. maybe I'll have a chance to eat a cake tomorrow at the mall after I take my sister to the zoo. Oh no, I'm not leaving her there for adoption, haha, she just wanted to see the animals that Aiba got to see. Happy Father's Day to all the dads! My dad's already asleep and snoring loudly (it's funny coz he's in chorus with his snoring dog lolz)

I'm overflowing with happinesss! my gosh, it must be from the caramel-cinnamon pudding and choco bars that I ate today!

I saw screencaps of Atashinchi no Danshi ep 7 and and and... oh my heart! ♥ I'll just write in bullets coz I'm too busy spazzing.
• Hard Gay in Atadan ep 6 lol XD
• Koji Seto is so cute. Oh! he's in the new Ju-on movie!!
• Mukai Osamu is so gorgeous!
• I remembered Mukai Osamu's in Mei-chan so I immediately searched for Takeru Sato.
• Takeru Sato is in a new drama with Tamaki Hiroshi, a live-action of Osamu Tezuka's manga MW.
• MW has a movie and it stars Tamaki Hiroshi (Nodame Cantabile) and Yamada Takayuki (Densha Otoko).
• Yamada Takayuki in a movie with Chiaki Kuriyama (Kill Bill's Gogo Yubari).
• Crows Zero 2! awesome awesome boys! Thank you for adding Miura Haruma in the sequel.

----------------------

While typing this entry, my sister and I heard a loud crying from outside. I rushed out the door to look for it. I brought it home. I could not help it, it's in my instinct/reflex/whatever-you-call-it to save kittens from the street! Our neighbor's dogs are gonna maul the poor thing. Heck, even my younger sister is afraid to go out coz our neighbor's beagle bit her and their other dog, a brown labrador is starting to hate her, too.

Now, the problem is our cat Meimei just popped four kittens last week so.. dundundun.. I'm in BIG trouble. Dad's gonna flip when he finds out tomorrow that we have ANOTHER kitten. An addition to our 10 adult cats, 2 three-month-old kittens and 4 newborn kittens.

I have to think of new excuses.

2009-04-22T16:48:00.000+08:00

I'm in my room, living like a hermit. I'm using my sister's laptop just to check on my pet on Pet Society. Omigosh, this game is so addicting!!!! My sisters created their pets coz I couldn't stop talking about it. Now, they're hooked, too! HAHA XD

------------

I heard something funny a while ago---> "Nakakaiyak naman yan!"

That's my dad while watching Door to Door starring their (my dad and younger sister) beloved "Taro" Ninomiya. Just like in 2007, when my sis watched Letters from Iwo Jima on DVD, my dad watched too.

2009-03-17T11:59:00.001+08:00

starting from scratch seems like the most difficult thing to do. I have to plan and re-evaluate my priorities before I can move on. Looking for a greener pasture is another problem. I know that there are some available jobs out there and I already have the experience that the companies are looking for but I still feel a little uneasy. I know myself, I know my skills andmore of what I know I can achieve but what if I don't get the slot/s that I really want to get in a good company?

a few more days to go and I'm free.

2009-03-11T14:48:00.001+08:00

oh what a slow and boring day. I feel so sleepy. I want to go home and sleep then after I wake up from my nap imma drink coffee paired with my favorite toasted pandesal. One week and four days to go and I am a free person. I deserve a rest after all the hullaboo. I'm excited. Yayness. :)

finally

2009-03-03T17:23:00.001+08:00

After the meeting this morning, I walked away clapping and with a smile on my face. I ran to the restroom to lock myself inside a cubicle. I cried, not because I was sad but because I felt so happy, so relieved. Between sobs, I prayed and muttered a silent "Thank You". This is one of the scariest and at the same time, HAPPIEST moment in my entire life.

I don't know what will happen. Actually, I'm a bit scared to START again. I've become a stronger person in the three years that passed. .

For a long time, I have tried to convince myself that I could never leave this place because it is my comfort zone. But I realized that it wasn't, after all, why would it be my comfort zone when everytime I am here, I feel sick, tired and sad?

I told my friend "I feel so happy, it's as if today is my birthday."

Well, for now, it's goodbye. This is a big sacrifice for me, I had to let go of a lot of things. This is for my future, it's about time that I become serious and selfish . I have my priorites, I have my dreams.

I don't want them to say Goodbye, I would rather hear them greet me CONGRATULATIONS.

Good luck to me. :)

2009-02-27T01:50:00.001+08:00

It's funny that people have mixed reactions: When I have a little extra time in my hands, they give me double load to maximize time; When I'm multitasking (i.e. doing my own deadline and at the same time, being a back-up person for another magazine and editing a media kit), people tell me that it is very unfair for me. Whatwhatwhat?

I'm a little surprised I'm not YET stressed to the point that I'm having an acid reflux attack (just like last week)

Whatever. I'll just go shopping this weekend... or watch John Lloyd's new movie hihi

2009-02-18T23:24:00.001+08:00

I feel so stupid. I AM stupid.I've counted it in my head and this is the fifth time. I should be scared I should be crying. I was expecting that I'd cry but I didn't. I can still laugh after everything. Manhid na ako. Maybe I'm not stupid, I'm just plain crazy.

Maybe this is a sign. It could be a stronger push and not just a pat on my shoulder saying "hey, you should do something, do something for yourself".

I want to cry... but I can't.

2009-02-16T11:50:00.001+08:00

Our mama cat Ardie popped 4 healthy kittens just this morning ♥

2009-02-13T13:16:00.001+08:00

'Almost' all of the sites are blocked in the office. There are only 3 computers that are allowed access to the internet in our department: my boss, me, and a vacant computer. I can't open my yahoo mail and gmail in my compy that's why I'm using my editor's PC right now in another department/room.

It's ok I guess, not being able to browse too much sites. This is turning into a self-discipline - I feel kinda guilty that I'm the only one other than my boss who has her own access to the net.

Valentine's day tomorrow. I'm wearing a red shirt today (it's our uniform XD). I'm not sulking, I'm quite happy with the way things are right now. I can truly say that I'm 'single and happy'. hee hee :D

You can google anything

2009-02-08T20:53:00.000+08:00

A few hours ago, after watching the latest episodes of my favorite dramas on streaming, I decided to google up the names of some people that I know (both from the past and present). Some of them have name-sakes from other countries, some have blogs that I don't know about and some of them written in the local news. I was enjoying every minute of it when someone's name popped into my head. I googled her/his name. Memories started to rush in and I realized that I'm still hurt. There was no closure coz the last time I tried to make amends, to help, I was once again tricked and somewhat harrased. So much for being a good girl.

"That person" has a multiply account, too. From the pictures posted in the site, she/he seemed to be happy with her/his life now. I was a little relieved to see that but still scared that once life becomes mean at him/her again, his/her past will haunt him/her again and I'll be blamed. I know what he/she can do but I'm giving him/her the benefit of the doubt.

It's a good thing I don't disclose much of my private information on the internet. I have 5 e-mail accounts that I use for business, friendster, website, facebook, multiply and a whole lot of networking sites. I am THAT paranoid. I use more than 3 passwords (combined uppercase, lowercase and numbers just to be safe) and I never give out my passwords to my friends, close friends... even my sisters.

The internet is very useful but it is scary at the same time. You can become a victim of Identity theft, Phishing, Viruses, Online scam, etc.

Just to be sure, always check your accounts to see if you're putting too much information about yourself. Use multiply emails and passwords and don't trust just anyone. It's better to be safe than sorry. ;)

2009-01-25T12:29:00.000+08:00

I just wanted to post the pictures of the Cinnamon Rolls I baked last week. I forgot to take a picture of the finished product fufufu XD.

Slow internet connection is slow. I can't download anything!! I still haven't watched UtaOni episode 2 D:

2009-01-22T18:56:00.001+08:00

I'm bored right now coz the bosses are in the mancom so i have nothing to do. I already ran out of things to wiki and gossip sites to read. Lots of things happened and will happen in this month: Some people are coming home, some 'returning', and another one leaving. I had chicken pox at the tender age of 24 (wow haha) and was on leave for eight days from January 7 to 16. Thank God I don't have pock marks on my face, coz seriously, most of the blisters appeared on my face, scalp and back. The power of Acyclovir is so amazing - it prevented the spread of the blisters, stopped the itch and it really does speed up healing time.

My kitty Ermengard is so fond of me. I think it was the midnight snack of Whiskas that did the trick - I always take her to my room at bedtime and feed her the kibbles. So whenever I come home from the office, she runs to me while I lounge at the sofa and meows like "where be my whiskas?". That cute kitty is so spoiled, she karate chops the other cats with her paws whenever they go near me.

Can't wait to go home... I'm already late in watching Episode 6 of Boys Before Flowers!! :D

SUNNY SUNDAY

2008-12-29T07:01:00.000+08:00

We went to the cemetery to visit my mom. Hindi kami nakapunta last sunday and on Christmas day because my sister had chicken pox. We brought flowers and bought candles from our suking tindera.

That moving thing is a Makahiya / Mimosa Pudica or Sensitive plant (of course everyone already knew this hehe) :D

My ate shared some stories from our childhood complete with hand actions, sobrang animated. Kinwento nya sa younger sis namin na lagi noong brownout from afternoon hanggang gabi (I think panahon yun ni President Cory :P). Pag di nakatingin si mama, she'd wipe the wet watusi on her hands and face then tatakbo sya sa kalye with the other kids. Naa-amaze sya coz it's glow-in-the-dark. Tapos pinakita sa news na maraming nalason na bata kaya natakot na sya ulitin ulit. Pero kinakalog pa rin nya sa kamay nya yung watusi na may sindi just like the boys in the neighborhood. She's a weird kid. Once, pinaikot-ikot nya sa ere yung ipis hawak yung antenna. Biglang naputol yung antenna then tumilapon sa mukha nya yung ipis haha XD

------------------------------------

I ate Oishi Sponge chocolate dipped in full cream milk while watching "2 Faces of My Girlfriend" with my sis. Yum! :3

(Oh look! They're earsing! They're letting their ears kiss)

Merry Christmas to Everyone! :D

THE EYE

2008-12-10T14:46:00.001+08:00

Na-inspire ulit akong gumuhit dahil sa isang pangyayari na naganap kagabi bago ako matulog.

Ang hirap pala mapuwing ng langgam.. ng pulang langgam. Akala ko pilikmata lang ang tumusok sa mata ko o yung hibla ng mascara pero nung sinubukan kong tanggalin, di ko sya matanggal. Kusot... kusot. Ipinahid sa kwelyo ng t-shirt. Tumingin ako sa salamin ngunit naroon pa rin sya, nasa sulok ng kaliwang mata, sa pagitan ng mata at ng kulay pink na tearduct. Kinusot ko ulit at kinutkot gamit ang kuko. Binanlawan ko ng mineral water pero nandun pa rin ang makulit na langgam. Lumapit ako sa salamin at dahan-dahan ko syang tinanggal gamit ang dalawang kuko. "Pinitas" ko sya. Bwisit na langgam, nakakapit pala sya sa laman (ugh!) ng mata ko.

Naalala ko tuloy noong may langaw na sumalubong sa mata ko. Naipit sya sa pagitan ng mga pilikmata ko. Parang yung eksena sa Aeon Flux ang nangyari sa akin. Buti na lang naka-mascara ako,

Ang mga ito ay nagpapaalala lamang sa akin kung gaano kalaki ang mga mata ko. XD

2008-12-08T17:04:00.001+08:00

I'm turning 24 in a few days. This is my week haha. To jumpstart the celebration, I went to the salon yesterday morning to have my hair rebonded. Now it's super pin-straight! It'll take a few days for the natural straighness to return. I can cut my bangs again coz the stylist totally ruined the part of my hair (I part my hair on the right side). 
 
I also started to lessen my food intake and I only eat cereals for breakfast and dinner. I ate my cornflakes with cold milk this morning and it caused a major tummy ache. I popped a pill buit it didn't work. My former boss did this accupressure thingy with my hand and after a few seconds, the pain is gone. Magic! 
 
I'm bored. I want to sleep but I still have some layouting to do. Ohno has a new drama! I'm so excited! I'm also waiting for that korean version of Hanadan. I want to see Yatterman, too. So much to look forward to next year. In 2009, I'll also fulfill my dream (well, other than seeing Arashi XD). I've promised this to myself and this is also what I'll consider as a Christmas gift for myself. This time it's for real =)

Is it cold where you are?

Can you touch the clouds?

When the sky sends droplets of rain,

Are they like tears?

Can you still see me? hear me?

It has been a year mom..

I miss you. :(

Random drawing for today.

I've been itching tomwatch TTwilight after reading the book last month. When the movie date with my friends got cancelled, I thought to myself "No, I HAVE to watch it today, on it's opening day ". So I called my sister up to tell her to get dressed and meet me at the mall. My treat coz I was lucky yesterday (my client payed finally).

I thought that I'll be disappointed with the movie because I've read the book before watching the n\movie adaptation. Well at first I wqas a bit disappointed that it was too fast-paced. They also changed the sequences and some of the character's personality (well, not just how I imagined them).I'm also into the technical side of movies and I didn't like the editing of the transitions and some of the effects. But my fascination with the movie started in the 'baseball scene'. It was breath-taking and the soundtrack is perfect!

I enjoyed the movie notjust because Edward Cullen is hot (Rob Pattinson!!!! <3) . The actress who portrayed Bella was kinda.. twitchy. My sister can make a mean inpersonation of her stuttering and twitching eye movements "No..no.. don't.. don't leave me, no!". XD

2008-11-24T18:24:00.001+08:00

I was fixing my things last night when I felt another heartburn episode. I thought to myself "I'm not allowed to feel pain coz I don't have my medicine... too expensive. Besides, I can use that money to watch Twilight ."

Haha.

Twilight on wednesday, yipee! ♥

2008-11-18T17:55:00.001+08:00

i miss :(

2008-11-18T15:57:00.001+08:00

• Four people on my online messager who don't even know each other all have the shout out "Move forward." Maybe I should use that phrase, too. hmm?
 
...it's not that I haven't moved on.. the perfect description for it is "almost there." :D. See? I'm making progress!
 
• My birthday's less than a month away. I already have a wishlist of things that I want to have or do for myself but I know that the list will keep changing every day, depending on my mood.
 
• I'm going to buy a journal. It's been a long time and I just thpought that writing my thoughts on paper has a big difference with writing on an electric journal.. Maybe I'll buy one that has a lock on it coz I don't wnt people reading something that's supposed to be private. I'm a very secretive person, Neener!

2008-11-12T10:16:00.001+08:00

shemay, humahapdi na naman tyan ko. i didn't bring my money with me so i can't buy my medicine. buong araw ko tong titiisin... putik!

this is what i get from another argument with dad this morning. sermon ang breakfast. haaaaaay.

2008-11-10T12:50:00.001+08:00

45 days before Christmas. I already have me Christmas wish =)

Oh, I'm gonna be a first-time godmother to my friend Caj's baby, Kiel. Which reminds me, when we were still in high school, we had this homework wherein we had to use a picture of our baptism or baptismal paper. I learned that Caj and me were baptized on the same day and Church- on a Christmas day. My sis said "then it only means that you're destined to become friends" since we only became friends in third year high school, two years after she transferred to our school. :D

2008-11-06T01:02:00.001+08:00

nagbukas ako ng albums kanina. habang tinitignan ko ang mga larawan, hindi ko maiwasang matawa at malungkot habang iniisa-isa ko silang lahat. para sa akin nakakalungkot ang salitang 'pagbabago', nakakalungkot kasi hindi ko siya maiiwasan kahit na ano man ang gawin ko.

nakaka-miss. :(

2008-11-05T12:56:00.001+08:00

i am shick.. *shniffs*. yesh. lots of people are sick with flu this week and i'm glad i'm not one of them. i just have a terrible cold and i've been coughing like mad since yesterday. my eyes have turned puffy and small.. i already look like a korean/chinese. this shall be over by.. uhmm.... sunday (well, i hope so).

BEAUTIFUL DAYS PV!!! so pretty!!! especially when Sho-kun blew on the animated stars.. yay for biased opinions yay! weeeeeeee

2008-11-04T01:08:00.001+08:00

I went to the hospital for my follow-up check-up. This time, I was alone coz I'm a big girl now.. hah! hehe. My dad kept asking "Should I come with you? Do you want me to go there coz I'll be in a meeting with my client near the hospital" XD. I woke up late so when I got there, my waiting number is already at 22! I waited for uhhh.... four hours. I fiddled with the strap of my bag, deleted SMS from my inbox (700!!! 8O), walked around the place, observed people, listened to people's conversations while pretending to be asleep, went to the restroom, walked again, ate soy chicken noodles with crab meat and drank strawberry tea, composed messages that I can send to friends in the future (haha), slept for thirty minutes in a slouched position at the waiting area (haha I'm shameless). Well, I didn't know that there are so many people with gastro problems! hehe.

Finally met the doctor at 3:30pm. He told me that my GERD is a long-term problem. It'll prolly take months or years before I can get back to my normal lifestyle. The medicine helped a lot coz the daily acid reflux attack has somehow decreased. I'm not allowed to smoke, drink alcohol, carbonated drinks, coffee, eat chocolates, etc. I should be under a high-fiber diet, vegetables, exercise *eherm* more, and take psyllum fibre twice a day. He prescribed another medicine that I can take when there's another reflux attack. Oh, and he gave me a discount card for the medicine.(yay for saved money!) . haha. It kinda looks like a credit card! My sister calls it the GERD club card.. hehe. Tomorrow, I'll be back to the pressures of work. Good luck to me and good luck to my tummy :D

2008-10-28T18:34:00.001+08:00

same drawing but with different hair color. i'm bored. my younger sis went on a downloading spree yesterday. she downloaded D no Arashi 15-18 and Shukudaikun 103, Johnny's Sports Fest 2003. Sports Fest! i literally jumped on my seat on the soccer match! i wanted to let out my fangirl scream at 1AM but my dad will be mad. Sho-kun's so cool! wooooh!

1 hour to go. I wanna go home~!

2008-10-28T17:29:00.001+08:00

bored much?

2008-10-23T18:49:00.001+08:00

i drank coffee today. i'm not allowed to but nobody saw me so i guess it's okay. i needed to calm my nerves, and it's the only thing that soothes me when i'm stressed. i took one cappucino flavored coffee from the untouched box that i bought from the grocery last week. it tasted awful but the caffeine really kicked my sleepiness away. i would've thrown the boiling hot contents of my tumbler onto the faces of some shitty people but that would only bring me trouble. i wouldn't want to waste the caffeine on them. 
 
i felt insulted but i shouldn't take it seriously, they're older, they'll die before me anyway- that's according to the two people i talked to this afternoon. pretty cool advice huh?
 
no more tears. one more then it's goodbye.

2008-10-22T16:19:00.001+08:00

thinking of what to eat everyday has become a hard task. i'm afraid that eating this or that will leave my tummy in pain. i miss my coffee breaks. i miss coffee. i want coffee. i can't eat or drink my fave foods- V-cut, fried foods, taho, coffee, cola, etc.

i have to control myself... this is for my own good. i'll be obedient... i should be coz the medicine i'm drinking is freaking expensive!!! one tablet is enough to buy a meal with upsize drink and fries in a fastfood restaurant! my poor wallet. good thing i only have to drink it once a day. (>o<);;

THANKFUL

2008-10-20T20:19:00.000+08:00

Dad brought me to the UST hospital this morning. I had an appointment with his gastroenterolgist but the doctor is still in Germany. The substitute physician is a young lady- she's very nice.

I have acid reflux... Gastroesophageal reflux. It has something to do with the sphincter of my stomach that stops the acid in the stomach from climbing up my mouth. I have to drink this medicine that will help in controlling the acid flow in my stomach. I'm not allowed to drink coffee and eat spicy and oily foods. I have another appointment in two weeks to see if the condition of my heartburn and sour taste in the mouth will improve. If not, they'll prescribe me with another medicine that will speed up the movement of the acid from my stomach to the small intestines. Sounds pretty complicated, my sister said. But I am glad to hear I'm not dying yet (I still haven't watched Arashi in a concert dammit!) haha.

THANK GOD I'M NOT SERIOUSLY ILL! ~♥

I've was so scared that I'll be diagnosed with something incurable or fatal that I've been putting down my family's offer of taking me to a doctor and my lovable friends' advice of having myself checked.

Life is definitely good. =)

new place... bored

2008-10-16T19:21:00.001+08:00

I got into an argument with my dad this morning. The usual why-do-you-always-sleep-late-now-you're-sick-and-lazy-and-the-cats-are-freaking-annoying-coz-they-poop-everywhere fight. I left home without eating anything, even if he made hotdog sandwiches and a banana-mango-pineapple shake for me. Isip bata na naman ako thinking that that'll make him worry coz of my stomach problem just to get even. It's just that I'm already tired and his nagging is not helping with the stress I've been going through for the past months. I wanted to give my mind a rest even for just one day but it seems that it's not really possible. Oh, and violet bruises are randomly popping out on my right arm for no reason. Must be the stress again.

gastroenterologist appointment next week. Hope I'm not seriously ill (I'm also hoping they won't take me to a psychiatrist instead).

Peach~! (again! yay! :D)

2008-10-13T11:51:00.000+08:00

We watched Hana Kimi SP last night on live streaming. Thank God keyhole was very cooperative :D. My sis had to stop typing her school project just to let me watch on the computer.. sweet little sister! hee hee <3

I was so amused watching the first half that I forgot to take screencaps. During a commercial break, I opened photoshop to paste my screenies XD

Oh, I forgot to take caps of someone... JUNPEI! He's the lead guy in the drama Hachi-One Diver. They gave him more screen time and lines in the SP. He's cute!

Here's a screencap of him in the opening of the Hana Kimi series:

That is all. Can't wait to download the raw files and english subs =)

2008-10-10T17:54:00.001+08:00

watching the fancams made me feel overly happy and at the same time sorry for myself that i didn't try my luck in lottery or rob a bank (haha)- anything just to have money money money to watch Arashi's concert. If i did that, I'll be in taipei right now (or in jail lolz). Arashi ~for dreammmmmm!! Nezt year!! NEXT YEAR!! JUST YOU WAIT! oh my fangirl heart! ♥
 
ok. back to work hihi XD

2008-10-08T19:10:00.001+08:00

My mood swings are getting worse. For two freaking days, I cried for no reason. I even cried in my sleep. Gah. I know I'm crazy but I'm not sure anymore... I think I get crazier everyday. orz
 
So... I turned on the computer and watched Arashi shows. I love their Odoroki specials. I learn and I laugh and it definitely cheered me up last night.

2008-09-27T11:32:00.001+08:00

Yasuko to Kenji episode 9...
 
*sparkles and jumps like a happy glittery goo*
 
I now ship YasukoXTsubaki. Can't wait to download the final episode (yes, I am that late)

I'm still not feeling well. My tummy's still rumbling. The sour taste in the mouth, I hate it. My dad's watching over my food intake, buying me bananas, oatmeal and soup. I can't drink coffee and softdrinks anymore, also dairy products. 
 
I had another episode of allergy this morning. Sneezing and wheezing and it felt like I'm gonna collapse coz I couldn't breathe. I dont want to go to the hospital please.

2008-09-24T16:36:00.001+08:00

It's the third day that my stomach's being weird. I always have this sour taste in my mouth. Dad said I must have eaten something bad, something 'acidic'. I don't know what to eat anymore. The saddest thinh is... I can't drink coffee anymore. 
 
----
 
Food Review again.. haha XD:
 
I bought my lunch from Jollibee today. The cashier offered their new flavor of sundae, Black Forest. "Mam, masarap po yan, may cherry po yan". I love cherries that's why I decided to try this dessert. At first glance, it looks like their brownie sundae until you see the thinly sliced cherry.
 
Did I like it? Honestly, I don't like it that much. It kinda leaves you with a bitter aftertaste. I'm also not sure if it'll click with the kiddies coz most kids don't like cherries coz it reminds them of the flavored medicine that mommies force them to drink when they're sick. It's a good thing they topped my sundae with lots of brownie crumbles coz it definitely saved me from the bitterness. yeah.

this direct posting from my email to blogger is pretty nifty, i love it! [^o^]

2008-09-23T13:35:00.001+08:00

I am loving the Wonder Girls' new song 'Nobody'. The video is so cool (lol at JYP making fun of himself). Amazing as usual. So many groups making a comeback this season huh? Mirotic... I'm not that into DBSK's new song. If I watch it a few more times maybe it'll grow on me.

----------

I was feeling super icky yesterday. My tummy has started to act up again. Bloated to eternal damnation, I went to the restroom and barfed my way to the feeling of wellness. whut?. My headache stopped after that and I slept like a baby inside the spacious and cold bus. Seemed like everyone's in a hurry last night- the bus, the two jeeps, the people walking in the streets. Must be because of the storm brewing. The wind was strong that the banderitas and the palm strees swayed under the bright moonlight. uhuh.

...and I still don't have a mooncake. Dad bought special hopiang monggo to make up for it but like I always say, "mas special yung may laway ng intsik na nagbalat nung mga butong pakwan na nilalagay nila sa mooncake." HAH!

2008-09-22T14:27:00.001+08:00

my younger sis and me had a discussion with my dad yesterday afternoon. my dad argued that 'money is the root of all evil'. we countered that 'money makes the world go round'. haha. i know it's wrong and stupid but i have my own reasons. in our house, we need money to feed twenty mouths, that includes my whole family, turtles, cats and dogs. without money, we'll starve, the pets will starve, and we'll all get sick. without money, we can't go to the doctor. and ... yeah. this is getting stupid. haha. what the f, i'm bored. hmmm... maybe i should scan some drawings again. i took my drawing book from the baul last night and i've started drawing again. i got inspired after watching episode 8 of Yasuko to Kenji. Oh, and because of YtK, i also cooked curry last friday. i love it when i'm inspired. oh yeah, i'm bored. XD

2008-09-19T11:34:00.001+08:00

Sabi na nga ba eh.. kahit di ko alam ang mga festivals, na-feel ko na maraming mooncake ngayon. waaaaaaaah!!! I wanna eat mooncakes! MOONCAKES! Especially the 'special' mooncakes, yung malalaki and maraming nuts, watermelon seeds and eggs sa loob na binibigay ng friends ng tatay ko. Dad... where are your chinese friends' mooncakes?! I want one now! I can buy one pero tinatamad ako magpuntang chinatown or maghanap sa mall. I remember last year, and the year before, naghahati lagi kami ni mama sa mooncake. Pag wala natatanggap si papa, bumibili sya somewhere sa may roxas boulevard or kung san pa man yung lugar na yun. Awwww mooncake.

Pag nagkaboypren ako, gagawin kong term of endearment sa kanya mooncake coz mooncake is love. hah!

2008-09-18T17:31:00.001+08:00

Miura Haruma! ampogi mong bata ka, bwiset.

at bakit ganun, mali ang spelling ng 'what's new' sa main site ng Bloody Monday (waht's new). wehehe.

2008-09-17T17:19:00.001+08:00

I watched the first episode of Nabari no Ou online last night. Waaaaaaaaaahhhhh~♥ such a cute anime.. I mean, the animation is so cute. The art style kinda reminds me of Ouran. The story is about ninjas and a few minutes into the show gives a little hint of BL. hihi. Plus, the characters are so pretty! woot! me likey! haha

I'll watch more tonight! I WILL WATCH MOOOORE!!!

UM YEAH

2008-09-15T13:27:00.000+08:00

I cooked okonomiyaki last saturday. I scribbled Arashi beautifully on top of the okonomiyaki using worcestershire sauce but the drizzled mayonnaise ruined it. haha. Made another one and designed it with random zigzags. It looked like hotcake with chocolate and cream XD.

I finally watched Maou 11, the finale last night. Why? WHYYYYY? T_T

Serizawa's dad made me cry (he's a very good actor, please shower him with awards!). Oh Naoto. Oh Ryo/Tomoo. The ending made me cry buckets, gawrsh! Why did it have to end like that?!? ToT

Damn you Shiori! I'm gonna have nightmares of your shocked-psychic face!!! D8

Oh, and Happy 9th Year Anniversary to my ichiban group...
ARASHI!!!

busybusy

2008-09-12T10:32:00.001+08:00

busy busy busy...

Maou 11 tonight.. wooh! I'm so excited! Keyhole please don't fail me~

I wanna eat okonomiyaki again. I was going to buy some ingredients last night but the mall's already closed. Too bad, it would be really cool if I can eat okonomiyaki while watching Maou live without subs. hihi.

That is all. And now back to my morning coffee. Yays.

2008-09-11T12:35:00.003+08:00

• Maou 10 is amazing. Naoto's dad, I thought he'll have a heart attack. Hmmm... I guess he understood Tomoo perfectly. I don't know what's gonna happen in the final episode, don't want to read spoilers cause i don't want my viewing pleasure errr.... spoiled. XD

• My younger sister is downloading like crazy again since monday after our internet returned to its normal faster speed.

• My dad's obsessed with the tuna sandwich that I've been making for dinner these pat two days. He told me this morning that he wants to eat it again tonight coz it's light and he sleeps better whenever he eats it. Nakakasawa na.. haha XD

• My ate suddenly received a job offer in China. Her good friend's aunt is helping her with the application and may waive for her visa at the embassy. Perfect timing for the AAA Concert in Shanghai. My younger sis and me joked that she can buy us con goods but she'll have to queue for at least 2 hours. hihi. But seriously, I'm crossing my fingers for this. She can finally use her degree in Architecture! Dad will be so proud. Although the callcenter biz sure rakes in a lot of money, I think it's time she test if Archi is not so bad after all (I mean, she wouldn't continue 5 years of college if she hated it that much, right? ;D).

• BoA! I saw the teaser videos for Boa's US single and it's so good! I like the korean MV version better. Hope she'll be successful ~<3

• Kahit saan ako sumakay, kahit anong ruta, nakakasakay ko pa rin parati si Matsujun-look-alike. My sister says it's 'destiny'. My dad joked "Dapat niyakap mo". haha. No. Na-smell ko na sya malayo pa lang, he's bi. :D

• It's not raining anymore... I can't use my beautiful umbrella! I want to use it pa naman then I'll sing 'Ai Ai Gasa' while hop-hopping on puddles. Yeah.

----

I read on yahoo news about the owner who found her missing cat after 9 years. Awwwwww.... I'm so happy they got reunited. I can totally relate coz some of our cats sneak out of our windows or door, get lost, and after a few weeks we just find them just hanging out at the garbage piles in the streets. Oh, it's not the same but, hey whatever. Maybe our cats just get bored of us and seek adventure outdoors.

Which reminds me... Pixie Pie, my dearest honey pie, the cuddliest pusakal in Manila, if you're still alive, please go home. I you and you whiny meow very much.

2008-09-09T12:36:00.001+08:00

i'm shaking. it feels like i'm on a moving boat. at random times i feel like i'm floating. weird. ito na yata yung pakiramdam ng taong sabog.

2008-09-09T11:27:00.000+08:00

gah! the medicine's taking effect. i can't control my eyes, they're drooping on their own. i want to sleep! D:

TORMENTED SOLE

2008-09-08T18:57:00.001+08:00

Yayness! I finally have the payong of my dreams! I am now a proud owner of a j-dorama umbrella, the clear plastic one!! Dad saw it on the sofa and asked "Whose kiddie umbrella is this?". Yes, it is mine 8D

I bought it at the mall yesterday with my sisters. I wore my sister's flipflops even though it's a little smaller for my feet. After an hour of walking, my right foot started to throb.

Me: My foot hurts. Well, not really the whole foot, just the.. umm.. what do you call it, sole? Yep, my sole.

Younger sis: Your soul? haha Wooo! Your tormented soul! Emooooo

Me: No! no! I said my sole *points at my right foot*

YS: Haha whatever! You should have a custom print shirt that says "My sole is tormented" haha

My sister is crazy. Last night before going to sleep I almost had an asthma attack from too much laughing. We were laughing about my tormented sole, our old cat Kikay (inside joke hehe) and other annoying stuff. But it's ok, the nutty gene runs in the family XD

Oh, I'm so proud of her. Two weeks ago, she wasn't listening to her professor, just chatting away with her buddy when her name got called. She was chosen as her class' representative for an Impromptu Speech Competition. She agreed coz there's nothing she can do about it and besides, there's prize money. She's hoping to win 2nd place coz the 1st place will be sent to an Inter-school Competition. Haha XD.

The following week, she got over her fear of public speaking and got through the first round. There are 15 out of 26 of them left. Then last week, at the final round, she just harrased the other contestants with her loud singing and befriended most of them. She does that to cool her nerves. At the awarding ceremony, they chanted "Burger! Burger!" to the 3rd and 2nd placer. When it was time to announce the first place winner, she joked that the winner should go a notch higher and buy Starbucks for everyone. She was shocked when her name was called. Haha. Weird girl, my sister is. I'm sure she'll be 'tormented' by her friends when she gets her prize money. Oh, and she's now praying that she won't be sent to an Inter-school competition. hehe

PINKU

2008-09-03T00:41:00.003+08:00

I can't finish my entry for the competition. I can't even file for a leave to pass it on friday. I am so sorry Jhaynie (even though you don't know this blog exists) huhu. I made this for you coz you believe in my skills and you're always pushing me to go further <3

A REUNION

2008-09-01T16:39:00.009+08:00

I remember when I was in grade four, my teacher in Filipino made us sing "Toyang" in class.

Last night, I got to sing it again. Not with my grade four class but with thousands of people... and with the Eraserheads.

Early dinner with my sister + Walking at Bonifacio High Street + Fullybooked
+ the security confiscating my mascara at the VIP entrance + camwhoring +
giant screen turned into a digital clock, changing every second, a countdown
to kick off the show + Screaming with the other fans...

The next minutes are one of the most awesome minutes of my life.

This is my childhood. This is my generation. Eraserheads...
Thank you for the wonderful music. =)

FOOD REVIEW (lol whut?! XD)
 
I am munching on Jollibee's Mushroom & Bacon Hotdog Sandwich. Yummy, but not as yummy as the Chili con Carne hotdog (also from Jollibee0 that I ate for lunch yesterday. I wasn't very fond of Chili con Carne before thus never ordered anything with it be it fries or nachos. Everything changed, or at least Jollibee changed my finicky tastebuds when I devoured (yes, devoured, I'm like a monster haha) the Chili con Carne hotdog sandwich. There's so much flavor when you bite into it, and both the melted cheese and the CcC (too long, had to abbreviate it) complemented the mild taste of the hotdog. I don't know why the M&B version isn't that too special, maybe because I didn't taste the bacon. Oh, and about the bacon... they cut it into little bits so when I bit onto the sandwich, some of th bacon bits fell into the table. I like it when the food stalls in malls just wrap the bacon  around the dog, it' less messy. ;D
 
-------
 
ok, I'm off! Gotta meet with my sister then we'll head to the best local concert of the year.. yay! :D

I'M CRAZY IT'S FRIDAY

2008-08-29T17:10:00.001+08:00

Because i'll be missing out on all the fun that is 24-hour TV. I won't be anywhere near a computer or internet connection tomorrow afternoon until night so I made this. Yay!

I used to hate you when I first became an Arashi fan but now I love you because of the way you take care of all the Arashi members ~~and because you sounded like a duck when you sang the blind A-RA-SHI on AnS~~. You are one sweet Hime ♥

Happy Birthday Matsujun! May you be blessed with more doramas, hit singles and member-ai.

P.S. Please refrain from high-five-ing with my Sho-chan if you're wearing your HUGE ring. He's muscled and all but he's really a wimp you know! XD

THURSDAYI'MBLOATED

2008-08-28T10:52:00.005+08:00

Finally finished downloading Tekkon Kinkreet and Paprika.. wooh~ I wanna watch now! I can't watch it last night coz my sister's using the compy for her homework and she's also preparing for the impromptu speech tomorrow. She's a little cranky coz she has no choice that her professor chose her as her class' representative. She'll have to overcome her stage fright. I know she can do it *proud sister :D*

Anyway, I checked TK, the quality is so good! Played it with subs and found out the subs are in french.

Je ne comprends pas français!

So I shoved my sister away and googled for english subtitles. Found one. Yay! Maybe I can watch it tonight with my sister if she's in good mood. 8D

YAYWEDNESDAY!8D

2008-08-27T17:41:00.010+08:00

I want to watch "Hinokio" because of Tabe Mikako, Maki Horikita and Ryoko Kobayashi :D

Horikita Maki • Tabe Mikako • Kobayashi Ryoko

hmmm.... ~~torrent!!!~~ C.R.! yay!!! 8D

but my favorite will always be.. dundundunnnn:

Aya Ueto! ♥

-------------------------

The internet died for an hour. Got tired of tap-tapping the keyboard, refreshing and fiddling with my drink's straw so I opened Photoshop to keep myself busy. I made this blue thing.

TUESDAY BACKACHE

2008-08-27T00:22:00.007+08:00

I think my dad's interested in Maou. While watching ep 8:

[dad] "Is that Taro?", "Where's Taro?"

[me] "He's not in there, he only appeared in the first episode. "

[dad] "Ahh.. ok. Is he that blonde guy? The one who's a good singer in Arashi?"

[me] "Yep, it's him, Leader :D"

So ok, maybe he's only interested in seeing Nino/Taro XD.

--------------------

Maou episode 8. Oh gosh. Oh no. Poor girl. (I want an umbrella like that!!)

Run Naoto, Run! :O

I've read the first two chapters of Ryusei no Kizuna and I can say that it'll be a great drama. I wanna see the yellow people together so I'm posting this picture again (something I made last month).. Too lazy to search for other pictures that I can edit in photoshop.

-----------

Just something that caught my attention when I rode the bus a few months ago-- two girls using an umbrella to shield themselves from the sun... inside an airconditioned bus! Had to take a picture or my sisters will never believe me.. hehe!

My back hurts... I need a massage!!

and... Eraserheads on saturday! =)

MONDAYHOLIDAYSLEEPDAY

2008-08-26T00:32:00.013+08:00

Wasn't able to watch News Zero and AnS coz I was having coffee and pastries with my dad and younger sis. I opened keyhole and saw Sho-my-love *wheee~* and decided to make caps.

He interviewed Takashi Murakami, the designer of this year's 24-TV t-shirt. I liked Murakami in 2005 or 2006 way before I became an Arashi fan when I saw pictures of his exhibits of huge colorful sculptures and his collaboration with Louis Vuitton. During the interview, they showed the process of silkscreening the shirts. Cutest chipmunk! Oh Sho-kun~ I'm so proud of you.

I like this lady... she's so funny! And.. and.. Bae Yong Joon?!

Nakama Yukie (left). The two comedians (right)

The wonderful boys ♥ (is that Nakai?)

commercials!! haha 8D

Cute talking cats in Aya Ueto's Softbank CM and Kokubun Taichi's commercial. I like Taichi, he has a hearty laugh with the audible "HaHaHa" sound. Just like Sho-kun. My biggest wish is for Sho to be the premium guest in Shounen Club Premium. Maybe he'd talk about the love in Arashi and *cough* underwears. I would love to hear the two of them laugh <3>

MADMADSATURDAYYY

2008-08-23T13:45:00.002+08:00

I am suddenly reminded on why I should hate people. 

People can't handle the truth. They are not loyal and they won't trust you.

That's why i have cats for pets... at least they show some gratitude and they make me feel like i'm the most wonderful person in 'their' world.

-------

I'll grab the opportunity. I have the weekend to fix some stuff. Good luck to me. 

-----

edit:
4:00PM (Saturday)

I am renting a PC here at the mall. The connection's kinda slowwwwww but there's nothing I can do about it. Just to pass time.

Why am I here when I can use the compy at home? Well, because I got home but discovered no one's inside the house... just the cats, turtles and dogs. My loud knocking woke up the animals. Gosh, I'm so lucky, I don't even have a duplicate of the house keys!!! [>.<]!!!!!

Darn, how many times do I have to tell my family that they should at least leave the keys to my aunt or at my cousin's store when they're going out. They won't even give me a spare key. They'll be so sorry when I get home. I'll rant so much. I'll throw a tantrum. I'll get their keys and tell them "How would you feel if you got locked out of your own house?!!!!". Just you wait, people.

Sheesh! And I even had to pay 20pesos for the tricylce just to go to the nearest mall! I'm also gonna pay for this internet rent! I also have to eat at a fastfood chain! Plus 20pesos again for the trike home. Oh the expenses!!!!!  

While the dogs are barking and howling from inside the living room window, I saw this guy looking at me. from afar. He lives 2 houses away from where I live, renting at my aunt's apartment unit. He was smiling and laughing to himself. Stupid bastard thinks I like ugly and stinky morons like him. Yuck. If I have my own goons, you'd be dead by now. Hah!

ep 8

2008-08-22T22:35:00.003+08:00

I opened keyhole to watch Maou. I was on time! On time for the next episode's preview. Just my luck. Oh well, at least I have a screencap... just ONE screencap.

Wooo~ scaryyyyyy!!

Hey Naoto! with that face, I'm now confused on who's the real Maou.. haha XD

--------------------------

My sister's reading the Ryusei no Kizuna translations so I can't watch anything on Youtube. I sneaked here while she's busy mixing the dogs and cat's separate dinner. I'll just drink coffee before going to bed. XP

THURSDAY-DAY

2008-08-21T16:40:00.002+08:00

why is it that no matter what i do, i still get zero for being nice?

cest la vie, as my friend would say. whoever said that thing about positive career = negative lovelife? or vise versa? 

how come i don't have both? oh no, i'm not complaining, reallllly. 

don't worry, i'll still give up my train seat for elderly and pregnant women.. just because some men had their butts glued to their seats. so ungentlemanly of them. hehe

--------

i'm eating snacku. ba't ganun, lasang halaman? XD

------------

I'll watch Tacchon clips tonight. We'll see if I can be an Eito fan. =)

----

Eksena last week:

pa-cute guy sa jeep papuntang Robinson's Galleria... tingin ng tingin. Nung magbabayad na:

"Ma, bayad o, isang ro-ro-Robinsen's" *sabay ngiwi*

Nahiya si kuya, di na makalingon, tumingin na lang sa labas ng bintana ng jeep at naglagay ng earphones sa tenga.

Robinsen's whut? XD

7!

2008-08-18T23:46:00.003+08:00

Yay! Maou 7 subs is now out! I can finally watch! wooh~ 8D

...but I have to rest for a while coz my sister and me just finished watching Disney's Camp Rock. It was a fun tv-movie *sings: This is true this is me...*. Joe Jonas is so cute... and errrr... it sounded a little wrong but yes, I'm fangirling another younger guy.. haha. Thank you torrent~♥

I miss watching Tegoshi, my niban! *needs to download the NEWS DVD or anything with Tegochan in it* (hmp.. my sister told me Jin Akanishi doesn't like Tegonyan... well, WE don't like him either..hihi)

Oh I remember, I can't download until I have back-up files and reformat the PC. Mr. Intarweb Man was here yesterday and told us that there's nothing wrong with the internet connection. I'll reformat it this week and if the mediafire and megaupload downloads are still not working then wooh! they're definitely gonna hear from me.

Okura Tadayoshi!! soooooo cuteeeeeeeeee (episode 5 yes)

EARLY SUNDAY

2008-08-17T23:59:00.007+08:00

A sunny sunday morning at the cemetery. The heavy rains from the past few days left puddles and flood. We brought orchids to decorate the tombs. There are mold forming on some walls. My sister just had to write Arashi, using a stick to scrape off mold. XD

While eating some snacks, we met a familiar face.

The same orange and white tabby making rounds on the cemetery last December 2007. We named him Bob. A very nice cat.

(photo taken last Decemeber 09, 2008)

He lost a little weight. This is our third meeting. He just pops out from nowhere. Maybe he's also visiting my mom =)

Bob ♥

SUNDAY LOVE

2008-08-17T23:11:00.010+08:00

It's a good thing I snatched the remote from my dad to change the channel to NHK. Shounen Club Premium has a summer special with V6's Nagase as guest with lots of performances from other JE groups.

Arashi on VTR! and their old performance of Love so Sweet and The A Day in our Life minus Nino 8D 8D 8D

-----------

I opened Keyhole and this is what I saw:

Arashi and Yukie Nakama and another lady on Music Lover ♥

Smiley Aiba-kun~
♥ Love so sweet ♥

They're teasing Shochan :D
Kaze no Mokou eh! Yays! 8Dmy caps are Sho-centric XD I can't help it

They showed 5 AU CMs...
first is Ohno's simple 980, Jun's CM but I forgot to make a cap hehe, Nino the alien, Sho's henshin, then Aibaka's new grampa gift CM. :D

They teased Sho into wearing a denim pants.. I don't know why coz I can't understand. ORZ

'e-o-d-d' [081708]

SYNCHRONIZED

2008-08-16T23:50:00.004+08:00

Just finished watching two episodes of Waterboys on TV5. I really enjoyed it even if it's tagalized! I like their new program lineup- korean dramas, local shows, chicklit dramas, hollywood movies and japanese dramas. I only saw the commercials but haven't seen the other shows except Waterboys :P

Okay, back to Waterboys. I saw 2 eps tonight... if they're showing 2 episodes every week then there'll be a new j-drama every five weeks? (Maybe?!)

Young Yamada Takayuki (Wooh~ my Densha Otoko) and Eita (Takeru!!) ♥
Yamada's in Crow Zero with Shun Oguri? Okay! I'll watch it tomorrow. Yays! :D

--------------------------------------------------

I mopped our living room and kitchen floor. I'm very productive haha. And oh! Arashi performed Truth on Music Station! ♥♥♥

---------------------

I want to watch the live-action of this anime:

Cute no? :3

Here's the live-action version...

Waaaaah~ so cute! I've seen one episode on youtube and it's so funny. My dad's gonna laugh at me if he sees me watching a kiddie show haha but I don't care. It's not really a pre-schooler's show, I mean, just listen to Maruko talk! She's like an adult trapped in a little girl's body! XD

I think I'll buy this in Quiapo. Yeah 8D

PARAISO

2008-08-15T12:53:00.003+08:00

I watched some youtube videos last night before going to bed. There are old Filipino commercials uploaded, some of them were aired when I was still in elementary. I also watched videos of Smokey Mountain (first ever record my sister bought).They're so amazing. I listened to 'Paraiso' last night and it made me cry. (Wooh~ Why so emo? haha). Another night of reminiscing coz I miss my childhood so much (quarter life crisis? I don't know D:)

So after a few google clicks, I finally donwloaded their album. Oh yes. =)

'e-o-d-d' [081508]

2008-08-14T09:35:00.003+08:00

late 'e-o-d-d' for yesterday. i'll just post it today hehe

typing the whole every-other thingy is super effort... but i'm a lazy bum so starting today i'll just use 'e-o-d-d'.

I painted this while eating my TLC burger lunch. I'm still using an optical mouse in drawing/painting digitally. I love how this turned out. I've always wanted to achieve the almost nude colors with soft pastel effect. The finished painting reminded me of a great Filipino painter that I admired when I was still in college -- the artist Caloy Gabuco . I love how he paints women. His subjects have angelic faces and soft features. I've seen some of his mother and child paintings and wanted to learn how to do them. I fail at portraiture but I'm pretty happy that I can draw and paint women better than painting men. I can't paint children no matter how I try, they always look midget-ish or awkward with abnormally large eyes..haha

------------------

I enjoy watching the olympics on TV with my dad. He'll calls me whenever there's a japanese in every match so that I can try to spot Sho-kun in the audience. :D

Michael Phelps is so amazing! So amazing ♥

-------

I love watching Project Runway Philippines. They're all good. I love the bickering. I love the designs. But.. but... I can't believe Lord Maturan was booted out. I like his designs and he seemed like a very smart person. Oh well. I'll tell my sister to watch the replays coz she still hasn't watched a single episode because of her work schedule.

-----------

Maou episode 6 is my favorite so far. Naruse is pure genius. He's becoming more EVIL! And poor Naruse's not qualified to be loved. wheeeeeeeee~

Yasuko to Kenji episode 3 (that's the latest I've downloaded huhu) has more Tsubaki Jun (Okura) screen time. Too bad there's still not much dialogoue. But I love him still. <3

Eriko Sato "Cutie Honey" (honey flashhhhhhh!!) is the guest. She's so cute :3.

DOUSHITE?

2008-08-13T06:36:00.000+08:00

Wednesday post by a wednesday child. whut?! XD

I've been so busy with work that I didn't have time to post my 'every-other-day-drawing' last monday. It's still in the computer at home. Today's another day for a drawing. I'll make one after lunch since that's the time when my creative juice will be flowing. hehe.

Well anyway, the reason for this post is because I feel that I should write about the drama "Yasuko-to-Kenji". I haven't flailed properly for the show since I don't know anyone (well, personally) who has seen that drama, not even my younger sister. She's too busy with school work but I'll make sure she'll watch it tonight. haha. (pressure!!!)

I watched this primarily because of Tabe Mikako. I loved her in Yamada Taro Monogatari and I got curious when I read a post while blog-hopping that she's with another JE boy in this drama. I couldn't find downloads at first so I asked my sister to search for torrent files. There are torrents!! And because of that, I learned how to download torrent (haha oh my, what an accomplishment).

I LOVE this drama. I love their acting and the story (it's a manga live-action). Tabe Mikako is her usual giggly girl and she's so embarrasing and funny. Her mangaka brother, Kenji (played by TOKIO's Matsuoka Masahiro) is a very great actor too. His exagerrated facial expressions whenever he's mad is pure win. The cute owner of the flower shop who has a dual-personality, Erika, is also awesome with her character shifting from sweet to plain scary. haha. Her younger brother, Tsubaki Jun, is just. just. just.

Okay! Screencap~

*Melts* Even without the effect I'm sure that's exactly what I would have seen when I watched the pilot episode. He's oh so sparkly!

So, I goolged the drama and found out he's Ohkura Tadayoshi of Kanjani8. What?! I didn't know there's a super cute guy in Eito. Seriously, I didn't know. I only know Ryo and the names of the other members, have seen their performances in Shounen Club premium but but... why am I so late in this?

Wheeee~ Ohkura, you're now on the third spot of my favorite JE boys, you pushed Yamapi down to number 4.

TVQX's Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattandarou? A cappella version is so beautiful I want to cry. They're really talented singers and they deserve more exposure and album sales. I love them even before I became an Arashi fan. I'm so happy that they're also doing great in Japan. <3

LOVE WEEK

2008-08-09T11:41:00.003+08:00

Kaze no Mokoue eh PV~

oh, my fangirl heart!!

This is a very lucky week for my sister:

On her birthday, the 7th, there's Himitsu no Arashi-chan Sakuraiba Childminder, Arashi's Utaban guesting with the Truth performance. Yesterday (8th), release of Truth PV, Beijing Olympics!!!, Maou episode 6, Sho's Beijing report on News Zero, Aiba played "Smile" on his recommen.

Today, 9th, release of Kaze no Mokou eh PV

ahhh... be still my heart ♥

---------

my dad is so funny. he just came home from a meeting when he saw us watching Truth PV on the DVD player (I burned it so we can enjoy the feeling of watching it on TV as if we are in Japan lolz). he's like a little kid with his silly dance steps while watching Arashi XD

and because of that, this is 'every-other-day-drawing' [080908]

Ai wa kitto furisosogu ame no youni...

2008-08-08T18:57:00.000+08:00

Watched the opening of the Beijing Olympics on the local channel while eating dinner. Amazing! It was so beautiful. I'm so proud to be an asian.

We waited and waited for the the Philippines' turn with Manny Pacquiao as the flag bearer. We got bored because there are commercials on the local channel's live telecast. I opened Keyhole TV to check on Maou but couldn't find TBS channel. I spotted a channel with 200+ watchers, NHK, and opened it. Yay! live telecast of the Olympics, 3 seconds advanced from the local TV.

Click. click. clicked another channel.

Voila! News Zero just started!!! I saw Sho-kun! woo! I'm so proud of our Keio boy!

His expression while watching the opening ceremony fireworks is so priceless :D

Dear, close your mouth.. hehe

after a few minutes, Keyhole lagged. and then it stopped. gah.

CHIYOOOO

2008-08-08T18:00:00.002+08:00

Can't you see? Every step I have taken, since I was that child on the bridge, has been to bring myself closer to you.

-------

I want a life that is mine!

--------

The heart dies a slow death, shedding each hope like leaves.
Until one day there are none.

----

In that moment, I changed from a girl facing nothing but emptiness, to someone with purpose. I saw that to be a geisha could be a stepping stone to something else... a place in his world.

yep, Memoirs of a Geisha movie.
I'm now a Ken Watanabe and Zhang Ziyi fan :D (Gong Li is so beautiful~)

WHAT? 2.5kbps ?

2008-08-07T23:40:00.006+08:00

waaaah!! what's wrong with our internet??? how am i going to download anything with 2.5kbps????? D:

Arashi's TRUTH performance on Utaban is love! ♥

Arashi + serious = SEXY!

sniffles. it's not an allergy anymore.
darn, i should've taken those vitamins.

'every-other-day-drawing' [080708]

It's my younger sister's birthday today. I gave her money but the monetary gift didn't feel quite right (and special) that's why I decided that I'll just draw Ohmiya for today's drawing exercise. I didn't want to draw Ohno cause his nose is a pain to draw but, oh well, there's no escaping it- I really need to draw it for my sister even though I know that the outcome would look sucky. orz

no, wait I take it back. that's not really Ohno.. it's just a random person with Nino..haha :D

-----------

I remembered my obsession with the Backstreet Boys last night while inside the jeepney on the way home. I became a fan when they went to the Philippines in 1996. My parents supported my sister and me in our fandom. My mom bought everything there is about BSB: magazines, VHS tapes and cassette tapes (we don't own a CD player then). She even gave us her expensive unused collage book so we can make a clippings album. I begged my dad to make a bank account with the money for concert tickets for when they decide to come back to Manila (haha stupid kid would do anything.. my dad tricked me into believing that he did make a bank account for the tickets though XD). Well, they came back... after 10 years. I thought I wasn't that much of a fan anymore when they returned. My elder sister bought tickets for my mom, younger sis and me. I left from the office to meet up with my mom and sister at Araneta. I thought that it would be a simple performance- just another concert. But when they appeared on stage, I cried. I cried so much! It was so magical... a dream come true. They were a huge part of my childhood, of my highschool days. If I didn't become a BSB fan, I'm sure I wouldn't be an Arashi fan either.

I'll wait for my chance to see Arashi. It's possible. It will happen. Oh yeah. :D

YELLOW AND PINK

2008-08-06T17:58:00.003+08:00

no drawing yesterday. i failed again but managed to make one today because i have a lot of time in my hands. it took me one hour to finish this. i think i'm already getting used to painting digitally using an optical mouse (pen tablet! i want a pen tablet!!).

so, here's for yesterday's 'every-other-day-drawing'. :D

----------------------

KAZE NO MOKOU EH PV preview. I LOVE IT. Sho is so cool! I can see his beautiful muscles.. haha XD he's wearing cute boots! Ohno looked so good spinning around. Aiba is.. hot.

But.. but... why is Nino wearing a silver bathrobe? (haha joke!!) It's not really that bad compared to Jun's weird uneven sleeves.. hehe :D:D:D:D

-------------------

TVXQ's Doushite Kimi wo Suki Natte Shimattan Darou? (Why did I fell in love with you?) is so beautiful. The PV is like Proposal Daisakusen.

COOKING

2008-08-04T18:47:00.002+08:00

no 'every-other-day-drawing' yesterday... if i make one tonight, it would still count, right? (riiiight.. i'm trying to convince myself.. haha!).

well anyway, i'm turning into matsujun's 'bambino' - my little cooking skill is now A-OK. on saturday, i cooked carbonara for dinner. my family loved it.. even my dad who calls my cooking "chamba" said it's so good. i am so proud of myself *accepts non-existent award*. then yesterday (sunday), i cooked chicken teriyaki for my lunch since i don't eat sinigang (i'm not fond of sour dishes XP). i also cooked... dundundun... BANOFFEE PIE. hell yez. they're all praises for my culinary skills. younger sister even told me "mom, would be very proud!":D

i'm made of awesome, i know! haha XD.

too bad my phone's still dead and my sister brought her digicam for a mini-photoshoot. i would have taken a picture of it because i'm so happy and proud hihi :D:D:D i just realized that i really enjoy cooking and i can make a living out of it. maybe one day i'll can have my own restaurant? i'll only have three foods on the menu: Okonomiyaki, Carbonara and Banoffee Pie. hehe 8D

EDIT: because i'm a cheater.. here's my artwork "for yesterday" (a quick sketch which i made in 15 minutes)

i really need to buy a pen tablet [T_T]

HOPING FOR THE BEST

2008-07-31T18:49:00.001+08:00

It's calmed down since last night. I hope there won't be any more rumors for Arashi. :l
