what i felt when i saw myself on tv?

Nothing, really.

Sure I felt all giddy inside and "hey look mommy, nasa tv kami!" proud but after a few seconds of staring, it was just like watching another performance of ours caught on video. (Yeah.This time with zooming cameras with uber high quality; accompanied by flashing lights and tons of make-up.) Honestly, I felt dizzy watching the whole thing, much thanks to the numerous angles that the cameras panned in. Oh well, the magic of television.

expect nothing but random blabbings

Ain't it funny why I haven't been posting a lot lately? I guess I was just too focused with the competition and other things (other things meaning trying to get enough rest, extra cash, and other what nots). So anyways, here's a rundown of what had transpired during my semi blog leave.

House mates. Yeah, you heard (or read) it right. I officially have a house mate now. DK's been renting a vacant room in our house since last Monday, and Roy also stayed here for the duration of the RX preparations. So ganito pala pag may house mates. Haha. Magulo, pero masaya kasi I have people to talk to.

We lost. Amp. I must admit that I had high hopes for the Clan but nevertheless, I'm glad UP Indayog won, and mind you, for the second time! Woot! Go UP Manila! I remember typing something retelling my experiences during the day of the competition itself, too bad I forgot where I saved it, or if I really did save it. Tss. Basta the whole experience was a bliss. Never to be forgotten, siyempre dahil first competition ko yun. To the Clan's competing team, much love and respect to you guys! Looking forward to many more "projects" with you guys!

Anyways, congratulations to the winners of RX 93.1 Rhythm Street Dance Competition Year 6!

Champion: UP Manila's Indayog Dance Varsity (Woot! Back to back champions! Kuya ER, penge copy ng pics!)
1st Runner up: Mapua Breakers
2nd Runner up: Holy Spirit (sorry, di ko alam name ng school talaga eh)
San Mig Stomping Champion: UP Diliman's UP Street Dance Club (Woot!)

Okay,tinatamad na ulit ako.

so i'm gonna be competing officially for the first time in a hip-hop dance competition tomorrow night (yes, i have no intentions of considering our stint in Studio 23's RUSH TV as my first competition.haha) and i'm pretty much cool about it. i mean, i'm really confident with the routine, and i trust the people i'm gonna be working with. i just hope everything works out fine tomorrow. what pisses me off right now is that no one from my family would watch me. hay, thanks sa support ha.

i'm tired.my body's sore as hell.

wish us luck.

The past weeks have been busy and exhausting, and at the same time, fun and fulfilling. I recently performed (more like "nakisawsaw") in a coffee shop gig and was quickly followed by a 12 - hour taping for this dance competition in one tv show. Grabe. Ang hirap, pero masarap yung feeling. Haha. It's like I'm finally living my dream. I just wish my academics would not suffer like it did during the last couple of semesters. Haha.

I really really would like to tell you all the things running through my head but I can't seem to put them into words.

Eh pano ko makakapag-isip ng ayos kung ikaw lang ang nasa isip ko..?

diyes is it!

No, no, hindi yan yung napiling subtitle para sa tenth anniversary concert namin, ginamit ko lang siya dito para may mapag-gamitan. Haha.

So anyways, ten more days and 1st semester of AY 2007-2008 will be officially over. Woot! Ten more days eh? Hmm. Hindi na tatagal ng ganun yun. Kasi after this week eh wala na kong class slash exams slash papers and other what nots to submit to over-abusive monsters aka professors in the United Pinoys of the Land of Bukos. Haha. Okay, I sound like a person who has just taken amphetamine eh no? Haha. I guess I'm just really really excited to have a real sem break after a REAL sem of studying. Woot!

Mga natitirang hadlang upang makamit ko ang sem-break ko.

• Microbiology 1 Laboratory Exam (October 16, 2007 ; 4:00pm)
• Botany 3 Removal Exam (October 16, 2007 ; 10:ooam)
• Microbiology 1 Required Final Exam (hindi ko alam.haha)

Wish me luck!

on life..

I imagined that day to be worry-free and that it would just be spent on sweating and such. I didn't see it coming. We all didn't.


News of a classmate's death swept the room and the once jolly atmosphere was enveloped in mourning. He was my classmate. No, we weren't close or anything. The longest conversation I think we had was when he asked me what topics would be included in the second laboratoy exam. That was it. I knew nothing about him, except for his name, and the fact that he's taking up veterinary medecine; for the obvious nameplate that he wore every meeting. I knew nothing about him, but my friends did, for he was their batchmate way back in highschool. A morning of mournings and stories about him escaped through our then trembling lips. Uncanningly, almost everyone in that room had a memory of him. I shall not go on and discuss details causing his death, for only he knows what had transpired.


Remember the recent Pili Drive accident involving some students? Unfortunately, the driver (the one who died) was my seatmate in Ma'am Bucoy's class. The class was surprised to hear the news that he was involved in the incident, let alone when we were told that he was the one who died.


A few days ago, my ninang's mother, Lola Martha, passed away. I never really had a chance to spend time with her, probably because she was often sick and was forced to stay in bed all day long. Her body gave up; and despite the loss, her whole family, including ours, is thankful that her sufferings have ended.


We can never tell when we would go. I'm ending this post with a line too often said/written, that nobody takes it seriously now.


"Live life fully. Enjoy every single moment of it, because we'll never know when it'll end."

the heart wants what it wants

I've been staring at this flat screen monitor for quite some time and I haven't got a single idea on what to write. Argh. I've been itching to blog for two days (thanks to smart bro's stoopidity eh wala kaming net connection sa bahay). Forgive the ramblings, nawala ako sa mood magsulat so pasensiya na. I'll let the fingers do the work na lang. Bahala na. So here goes...


Whew. Three more exams and my semester's finally, finally over. I have to give props to myself for being more disciplined (oh really, now). Haha. No, seriously, even if I parteeeyed more this sem, I DID strive hard for my grades, of which I am really proud of. Let me take this moment to cherish the fact that I got an 83 out of a 90 point exam in Humanities 1. Okay, okay, no big deal right? Uhm, it is for me, kasi si BUCOY lang naman ang professor ko doon. Haha! On second thought, bitter ako kasi may naka 86. Amp ka, kung sino ka man. Haha. With regards to my other subjects, uhm, wala lang. Okay, tinamad na ko magsulat about my academics. Sorry na..


Pop question! DO YOU THINK CHRIS IS "EMO"??


Nothing really. I was just taken aback with some comments I've received from a friend/ some friends na "ang emo ko lately". Haha. Define EMO. Wala na namang sense 'tong sinusulat ko.


Hay. Okay, wala na kong maisip. Sorry naman.

It's a good thing the sem's about to end. Sana makalimutan kita.


Kahit sembreak lang.

three cups of coffee and still going

I'm supposed to busy myself tonight by studying for an exam in microbiology (9am tomorrow,err later) and by doing two papers for Bucoy, which are both due 4pm tomorrow (later). Unfortunately, I was born lazy, so, my apologies to the unfinished notes and the still empty papers. Vicious cycle, I dare say. I always start the semester all excited, hyped up, and even super "bibo" with the thought of achieving good grades; but for some reason, I almost always slack off come middle of the term. Inconsistency. Haha.

i hate it when you smile so innocently.i hate you for gliding in and out of my thoughts.i hate it when an image of you pops into my not-all-the-time-functioning brain and just cause distraction.i hate you.i hate you for unconsciously making me fall in love with you.

I really should study now. ;p

rain can fall now.

the last slice of buko pie..devoured at 1:17am.

for you, still..

sleep is where i get to spend time with you.
dreams excite me knowing that you'll be mine, even just for a little while.
that was then.
now i fear sleep.
for if i sleep, i would need to wake up; and waking up means parting with you and getting back to the reality that you'd never be mine.

or i could choose not to wake up, and get trapped in my dreams of you and me; forever.

I'm simply amazed with how your hand fits perfectly with mine. What amazes me more is the chance I had to be with you; for our walk way home was unforgettable. Dinner was great, as usual, much thanks to your "trying hard" antics to make me laugh after flunking an exam. I love you for that. As if on cue, winds started howling the moment we decided to go home. Cold,definitely; but the warmth coming from your hand as it held mine was enough to keep me warm. This walk towards home was bound to be special, I just knew it. Yes, maybe because this would be our first official walk as "us", and not just "me" and "you", but I was expecting something else. Halfway towards your place, rain fell. It's as if the heavens decided to let it rain just so we could be closer and hold each other tightly as we prance around the now muddy pathway. I have never been so childish in my life, and yet I've never been so in love also. We reached your door and that warm embrace I've been wishing for came about. I felt weak and vulnerable; and yet your warmth gave me strength and assurance that everything will be fine. and then came the kiss. The kiss that slowed down every drop of rain falling from the sky; the kiss that made the howling winds sound like a lullaby; the kiss that made all the stars twinkle despite the thick clouds and immense rain pour. Our lips parted and before I could even utter a single word..


the sound of my alarm clock awoke me..

the internet is such a tease..

mcb1's second laboratory theoretical exam is in eight hours, and i pretty much haven't studied anything.ooh.i'm starting to believe my mom for saying that my laptop plus the internet will do me no good.

wish me all the luck you could ever wish for.

i just can't stop thinking about you..

let alone stop loving you..

algos

what do you do when you've finally finished the novel (which would be included in your next exam) assigned to your class, then find out that your professor will give you another title to replace the former?

have an hour long debate with the teacher?

join your classmates in a "rally", perhaps?

me?

i'd shut up and get a copy.haha.hay naku, ma'am lallie bucoy, kung hindi lang kita mahal na mahal (oist,dahil sa talento niya sa pagsususlat ha) eh nakisama sana ako sa mga kaklase kong muntikan nang maghuramentado dahil sa inyong "sudden change of interest".amp.anyways, i'm on the thirtieth page na naman.woot!one hundred and sixty more to go, Chris!

It just hit me. The sem's about to end and I'm really not all joys with regards to my academics. I mean, yes I'm indeed passing all my courses for this sem, but I'm not sure if I can make the grade requirement to be able to shift. Hay. Comm Arts. You're so near so please don't go too far. Haha. I guess I have to lessen "career" mode and give more time to studying. Hay. Bakit parang ilang beses ko nang sinabi yun? It's time siguro na sabihin ko sa sarili ko ang lagi kong sinasabi kay Tj; kaya mo yan!

You're not my past.

Past is when there's moving on.

You're not my past; still you are my present.

If dying right now preserves my love for you, then I'll gladly take it; and an eternity filled with passion shall begin.

You're still not my past

Still for you, I am not any.

(from death, eternity shall begin)

Oooh. Nothing but pure ranting. Wish me luck! I'll be having an exam in HUM1 and PHLO1 this coming Wednesday, add to that the deadline for PHLO1's paper, and a presentation in NASC10 all in the same day.

Before I forget... HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHISIP!!!WOOT!
