Now That's A Weekend.

Oh yeah.

Finally, a productive weekend. Y'all know very well how my weekends usually become occupied with dance rehearsals/trainings or other school-related things, right? Well these past couple of days were exemptions, to say the least.

First things first, notice the new look of the page? I did this new layout and header because I got bored with the old look of this page. This page now sports my favorite colors. Brazil. You can say that again. Haha!

I finally had time to watch DVDs, just like any other adolescent/young adult out there. I watched SAW 1, 2, 3, and 4, in preparation of the upcoming SAW 5. I, together with my cousins, watched (for the nth time) A Very Special Love and One More Chance. Also, I finished the entire first season of the series CHUCK, which I found amazing, in a geeky kind of way. Haha. I bought Season 5 of One Tree Hill. Too bad we'll be busy with rehearsals this week, plus, the second semester starts on Wednesday already (which reminds me, I still have to look for and enlist under one more subject. Stress.).

I also managed to finish Haruki Murakami's Dance Dance Dance, which is a good thing because I can now re-read his Kafka on the Shore which to me is a bit confusing. Haha. Haruki Murakami's great and all, but reading his works requires a lot of patience. Haha. I also went OC and wrapped all my novels with plastic cover so as to protect them and prevent further distruction of the covers. Things people do when bored. Haha.

Anyways, I'm quite satisfied with the near-ending sem break. I've accomplished a lot and mind you, went through a lot too. Good or bad, they're all experiences, and all of them are worth keeping (I guess. I hope. Haha).

I've officially ran out of things to write. Or maybe I'm just being lazy. Whatever.

Oh well, you guys better watch Skechers on the 23rd!

I Know I Have A Point.

No, this post ain't serious. I found myself blurting out (more like typing) stuff I am now finding funny. Haha. One's me being mysterious, while the other's me bein' emotive. Like there's something new there. Yeah. Both statements have strong points, though. Well, at least for me. Haha.

Exhibit A.

para may thrill ang buhay. dapat, hindi lahat nakalantad.

Exhibit B.

panalo talaga ko. sa puso lang ako ni 'ano' hindi nanalo.

I Guess I'll Just Charge All Of It To Experience.

A lot has been happening lately and the mere thought of writing them all here is strenuous. I'm disappointed, distracted, confused, and wrecked as of typing this. I need the "pause", or better yet, the "reset" button for my life program.

But then again, tomorrow's a new day. Maybe I can start then.

Yeah.

Exactly.

Exactly one year ago, we were on our van driving home from my first competition, RX Rhythm and Street Year 6, which was held at the Decagon, in Silver City. It amazes me how time really flies. I can still remember vividly the day I auditioned (half-heartedly) for the UPLB Street Jazz Dance Co., and look at me now, I'm now considered as a senior member of not only the Competing Team, but also of the whole Clan. It's weird how that one year gave me so much memories and experiences which in one way or another, made me a better individual, not only on the dance floor, but also on a "normal" basis. Haha. I don't regret anything, except maybe for letting my academics take a back seat whenever we have gigs and compets, but still, all in all, the past year was quite a good run.

Exactly one day from now, it'll be my Mum's 50th birthday. I'm excited for my mom, because I believe God has much, much more plans for my Mum (including the part where my Mum would not be so afraid of riding airplanes anymore, thus, world tour, here we come). Haha. Only one problem though, I still don't have a gift for her. It should be special, really, because it's her time for the big five ow. Argh. Think, think.

Exactly one hour ago, I started this entry. An hour has passed and I believe this entry's end should come now. I have nothing to write anymore. I've ben pulling all-nighters since last week and I believe the stress is busting all of my neurons out.

I need sleep.

Minsan Lang 'to.

Minsanan na lang ako mag post ng entry na Tagalog/Filipino. At yun ang gagawin ko ngayon. Una, dahil nami-miss ko ng mag-type ng Tagalog, at pangalawa, dahil hindi masyadong nagana ang utak ko. Lunod pa sa alak na tinira namin kahapon hanggang kaninang madaling araw.

Eto na, sem-break na. Halos. May tatlong exams na lang ako at makakasigaw na rin ako ng "Goodbye 1st Sem!". Pero dahil masyado akong magaling eh inunahan ko na ang sem break ko. Nag-party na ko agad, kahit marami pang naka pending na gagawin (lab reports, at yun ngang mga exams). At maniwala kayo na nag-party ako.

Birthday ng tatlong walang kwentang tao sa buhay ko kahapon. Si RJ (na pinsan ko), si Eli (kababata ko), at si Allen (kababata ko rin). Benta ang birthday breakfast ni RJ. Agahan pa lang, parang nakapag hapunan na kami sa sobrang daming nakain. Haha. Dimasyadong eventful tong parte ng araw na to kasi maaga pa massyado, saka may laban sila RJ ng basketball kaya umalis din yung mokong kaagad. Hoy RJ, 14 years old ka na. Pwede mo na aminin kina mama at tita na nag-iinom ka na. O gusto mo ako pa magsabi? Haha. Peace, bro.

Sunod kong pinuntahan yung party ni Eli. Kapitbahay lang naman namin kaya pinayagan ako lumabas, saka ka-vibes din ni mama yung mama ni Eli. Haha. Ang akala naming late lunch ay nauwi sa early inuman. Nag labas agad ng Gran Matador brandy yung tatay ni Eli. Naghain din ng sisig, inihaw na tilapia, pusit, at kalderetang kung ano man ay hindi ko alam. Sabi namin, uubusin lang yung isang bote tapos tama na, may party pa kasi si Allen sa gabi, eh ayaw naming pumunta ng wasted na. Malingat-lingat kami, nakaka 6 na bote na kami ng GranMa, at wala pang alas-6 ng gabi yun ha. Sa puntong 'to, masasabi ko na hindi pa talaga ako lasing, malakas lang talaga yung tama. Haha.

Umalis kami kina Eli ng mga 6:15 para maglakad papunta kina Allen. Pagdating namin, pinakain agad kami. The best talaga mag lechong kawali tatay ni Allen. Parang lahat ng parte, malutong! Chicharon! Haha. Pagkatapos kumain, naglabas ng inumin si tito at, surprise, GranMa ulit ito. Haha. Naglabas din siya ng Red Horse. Chaser daw. Amph. Dito na 'ko natakot. Oo, aminado akong malakas akong uminom, pero hindi ko pa kasi nasubukang mag inom ng hard, tapos chaser mo eh beer na malakas din sumipa. Wala ng urungan, minsan lang naman eh. Haha.

Wala na ko masyado matandaan sa puntong yon. Ang alam ko lang, naka ubos pa kami ng 6 na bote pa ng GranMa, at naka 2 bote ng Absolut (Citron). Ang alam ko alng din, ngayon ko lang na experience na halos makatulog na sa upuan sa sobrang kalasingan. Haha. At eto pa, na-experience ko na rin na amging bestfriend ang toilet (Cabugao, 2008) namin dahil sa sobrang kalasingan. Haha. I threw up several times (ininggles ko na kasi ang pangit kapag Tagalog eh). Tinuturing man akong bestfriend ngayon ng toilet bowl namin, ayoko na siyang maging kaibigan. Ang sakit sa lalamunan ang ilang beses mag throw up ha. Haha.

Anyways, masyado kong na enjoy ang Saturday ko. Nakakatawa, na yung mga kababata ko, dati-rati eh naglalaro lang kami ng Lego, o kaya nag roller blades, pero ngayon, mga kainuman ko na. How time flies talaga. Nakakatuwang isipin na nandun pa rin yung samahan, kahit na sa mga ganitong walang sukuan (at sukahan) na inuman na lang kami nagkakasamasama. Haha. Here's to more inuman!

(Ang bobo ng entry ko. Sorry na.)

Unfinished Business. Lots of them.

I'm currently reading three books, of course not all at the same time. I wish sem break would come a lot faster because not finishing a book makes me fell like I'm unintelligent or something, even though I put the real blame mostly on my laziness and heavy workload, still, I hate the feeling of not being able to finish something I've started.

Nonsensical post brought to you by yours truly.

Worth It.

Sulit na sulit.

Exactly the three words that's been resonating in my mind since I got home a couple of hours ago. I've tickets to Sponge Cola's gig in Java Avenue but after rehearsals, I went home instead. I figured I wouldn't be able to enjoy it fully because if ever I decide to go, I'd have to be home by 1:00AM, and no, it ain't because of curfew or anything. See, I have this big problem called waking up at 5:30AM for a 7:00AM "you're absent if you come in late" kind of class. And unfortunately, I've maximized/used up ALL POSSIBLE absences for that subject, and I've no intentions to flunk just because of excessive unexcused absences. Haha.

I wonder if she went. Hmmm.

Anyway, mum gave me the surprise of my life (o.a) when I came home and found not 1, but (insert number here. clue: between 2-10) pints of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. Gawd. Funny, 'cause I came across someone's Multiply and saw Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream in one of his posts, which got me really craving for it. Mum and I were talking on the phone early this morning and I told her about it. She actually missed Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream herself so she decided to take a break and go to Alabang to get some. Rustan's Supermarket in ATC is the nearest grocery which carry Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream products, I think. And voila, Ben & Jerry's resting comfortably in our chiller. Not for long though. Haha.

(Yihee, creative shots. Taken with Casio Exilim Z1200)

And yes, sulit na sulit ang hindi ko pag-nuod ng Sponge Cola gig dahil sa Ben & Jerry's, and quality ice cream time with my family. Yihee, cheesy.

Ang mature ng entry ko. Haha.
