Betches much?

Yeah! I'm so glad hindi ko pa na fee-feel yung distance from my friends even though we've graduated na and it's summer already.

I've been having some quality Betch moments with the 4 best girls you could ever find.

Let me start with B-Betch.

-March 27, 2009/ Friday-

Bevs and I weren't allowed to go to Punta Fuego with the rest of the happy people because...
just cause! Haha!

Anyway, we didn't wanna be left out fun-less, so we arranged plans to hang out in ATC.
It was fun and sorta tiring. We didn't do anything except walk around while window shopping.
We were gonna watch a movie, but we thought the movies available were kinda boring.
So yeah...MORE walking.

By the way, we spotted the cutest bag in TopShop. Haha!
Beevs wanted to buy it but unfortunately, she didn't have any money then.
So for anyone who's planning to buy the red heart shaped purse, PLEASE don't!
My friend needs it badly. Haha! She sees tons of outfits with that bag!
So if you have a heart, don't buy it.
HAHAHAHAHA!

After the long walk, we stopped by Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf to stuff ourselves with more energy.
Here are some pictures:





Conversation of the day:
Upon reaching the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf counter...
Guy who works at Coffee Bean: "Miss you might wanna try our new low fat cheesecake"
Me: "Why? Am I that fat?" *jokingly*
Guy who works at Coffee Bean: "Uh..." *H.A.T.S.S./looks a bit embarassed* "No, not really." *sheepishly*
Me: "Well, too bad. I'm ordering your Chocolate Cake" *Jokingly*

And after that, I immediately had weight gain frenzies. HAHA!
I should've ordered the low fat cheesecake.

By the way, the last picture was taken at Dairy Queen.
Bevs wanted to eat something so yeah...

We had fun:) Right Beefs?
Aw! Quality time with B-Betch!

Oh yeah I saw a couple of people I knew in ATC like Miguel Vinarao, the incoming first year high school girls (I don't know their names), Andrea Avena, the guy who goes to our mass, tita Taneh and kuya Paul. YEAH!


-Mach 28, 2009/Saturday-

Went to the gym with P-Betch.
It was supposed to be me, Pat and Bevs but apparently, a bit of misunderstanding occured so it was just me and Pat.
Anyway, it was my first time in Sphere.
Heck, it was my first time in a gym!

At the front desk was this guy named Tiny (who I may add doesn't look tiny at ALL). He recorded our names, gave us the locks to our lockers and towels to wipe our perspiration while we work out.
Oh and we paid too, of course! :)

I sorta had those nervous butterfly feelings in my stomach before entering the work out place.
I was sure I was in a ride of intimidation once I see the avid gym goers working their brains out.

But FORTUNATELY, there weren't much people inside.
Most of them were the trainers but they didn't count 'cause they were just watching TV :
Haha!

So yeah...
Pat and I started with the treadmill. We did 15 minutes and after that we consulted the trainer on what to do next. Then the whole session began. We did a couple of equipments, barbels and some ab work outs.
It was fun and ULTRA tiring.
I wasn't quite sure how people do these stuff without complaining how difficult it is.
I was obviously the newbie considering Pat has been going to the gym before and the trainer kept on assisting me 'cause...
Well...I looked helpless. HAHA!

We didn't have much time 'cause it was past 3 and I was to be picked up at Elfav at that time.

So Pat and I changed clothes and waited for her tita to pick us up.

While waiting...


*My legs look uber fat! But I'm gonna lose those babies soon!*


Then tita came.

As a treat, Pat and I rewarded ourselves with Halo-halo from Elfav.
Hahahaha! Galing gym eh noh?

FUN DAY :)


- March 29,2009/Sunday -

I saw Pat in PCJ.
I was glad she attended our mass :)
AAWW!
LOVIES!


- March 30, 2009/Monday -

It was PTC.
Okay, nothing special about this day but Bevs, Lauren and I were united again!
HAHAHAHA! Yeah...I missed Lauren.

Anyway, other than being united with them, I got good grades :)
I mean not "Patti" grades but nevertheless, they were good enough to make my parents happy.

Too bad I didn't see Hen and Pat. MEN!

Couple of pictures during that day:



I need to go to the gym...AGAIN.
Haha!


-April 1,2009/ Wednesday-
It was my scheduled medical exam in La Salle.
I felt like vomiting because of intense nervousness before the actual day came.
And when I was there...
REAL VOMIT.
I kid, I kid. Haha!
That would've been embarassing!
Anyway, my first stop was the physical check up.
They gave me a form with different kinds of illnesses that I could have acquired through heredity. I suddenly became "health conscious" reading them while crossing out each with a hint of fear. Haha! Anyway, the FEMALE doctor started examining me. Checking this and that, I didn't realize it was done until she gave me my form back.
The next stop was the chest x-ray. I was told to remove my top and wear their hospital gown.
It took me 2 minutes just to change (I was a bit confused, okay?) and 5 seconds for the actual x-ray. I may want to add that the guy who took my x-ray looked somewhat like Mong Alcaraz. GREAT. Just the look-a-like I wanted to see...
Anyway, we went to the main hospital and had my CBC or blood test.
I swear I hate NEEDLES. I was nervous. I wanted to hesitate and run outside to my aunt.
But I was too late, the girl strapped my left arm with a thick rubber band and started looking for the "right" spot. SHIT. Hahahahaha!
And when she gave me the queue ("Wag gumalaw ah"), I covered my mouth with my handkerchief and closed my eyes tightly. Hahaha! I know, childish.
But I have a good reason for that! I was traumatized when I was young, I had my first dextrose and they started injecting me 3 needles one after the other. My worst childhood memory. HAHA! Anyway, they (my uncle, aunt, brothers, mother, father, Hen and neighbor) said it's like a bite of an ant, and they were right. It did feel like an ant bit me.
I felt proud parading out of the room 'cause for the first time, there weren't any tears streaming out of my eyes. Once I got out, I boasted my cotton bandage to my aunt with a huge "look-at-what-I've-got" look. Hahaha!
Yes, shallow, I know. But you would've been proud too!
Anyhoo, after that I went to get my PPD or skin test.
This is where I was scared the most. I've heard tons of experiences from the oh-so-dreaded skin test. Most of them said it was painful, only some said it didn't feel anything.
As the boy before me got out of the skin test room, he looked pale.
And that's when I freaked out but of course, I remained cool and calm.
I find the PPD much painful than the CBC. Ang hapdi! They injected this medicine (?) on the top layer of my skin and it stung so much. But it was alright, it was as short as the chest x-ray.
After 5 seconds, the lady covered the bump with cotton.
(Hen felt nothing during the PPD. MEN!)
Then finally the last exam, the drug test.
The guy gave me TONS of paper to sign until the real drug test began.
Hen and I met here while my fingerprints were being taken.
Anyway, since the line was taking long, Hen went to get her PPD and CBC test while I remained gulping a bottle of water to help me do my business.
It was quarter to 12 and I still couldn't pee so we ate lunch outside and came back at 1 to do the "thang".
So yeah...
(Don't want to elaborate full details of this experience.)

After the WHOLE exam, Hen and I (accompanied by her mom and my tita) went to check out our dorms.
The dorm room was...er small but enough to keep our stuff away from each other.
We agreed on having our room on the ground floor (stressful kaya kapag 4th!).
We signed a couple of papers, had our "interview" (not a serious one, it's more of a chat than an interview), asked a couple of stuff about our dorm and VOILA!
HELLO DORM!
Can't wait!
After all of that's been settled, Lauren surprised us outside the dorm office.
She only stayed for a "Hi!","Hello!", hugs and beso's then went straight to her car na.
Hahahaha! I love Lauren!

Then yeah...went home feeling good about my day.

By the way, Hen and I don't have pictures during our medical exam.
I was too shy 'cause her mom was there! HAHA!
Sorry Hen!


-April 8,2009/Wednesday-
We had choir practice in PCJ for the Good Friday Mass.
After the practice, I went straight to Beverlys place so then we could eat lunch outside.
We ate in Rosemarys and settled in Starbucks to wait for my sundo.

Pictures!



Then we went home na. Haha!


-April 13, 2009/Monday-

We were gonna have a Betches day out 'cause Patti's gonna leave for States.
Had a bit of misunderstanding (Sorry Betches!) and ended up canceling the whole thing.
So yeah...
Went to ATC to pick up Lanz's glasses (by the way, I saw my anak, Marian, in Rustans) and went straight to Beverly's place :)

Since we had nothing to do, Beevs forced me to go to the hot tub with her.
So she lent me her swimsuit and yeah...
The water was supposed to be boiling hot but instead, it was freezing cold.
Hahahahaha! So Bevs and I SLOWLY got in the tub.
Actually, I was the one who got in first 'cause Bevs thought it was TOO cold. Hahahaha!
Well it was but I was able to bear it.

Okay, here are our malala pics. Please, don't make fun.
We both weren't ready! HAHA!



While in the tub we chatted, ate ice cream and watched tv.
Fun! Fun! Fun!

-Fin-

Can't wait to have more random outings with the Betches!
Love you girls!

Oh yeah forgot to mention, LANZ!!!
I LOVE YOU FAT BUDDY!
Congratulations!
Ako yung magsusuot ng medal sayo ah! HAHA!
YEAH!

"Goodbye doesn't mean forever"

Hello there air breathing creatures of this world!
It is I, Ana, the beholder of thy blog.
It's been such a long time.
I suffered from the usual case of laziness that's why I've been "out" of the blogging world for so long.
Anyhoo, I thought of making this post sorta serious but not too emotional.
For all of those who don't know what I'm talking about, it's our graduation tomorrow.
Yes. Our BIG day.

Wow. Bilis noh? The memory of my first day being a Senior is quite vague but nevertheless, I still remember most of it.

Have I been sleeping while everyone around me started growing up and facing time as it is?

Four months ago, the thought of "Graduation Day" scared the heck out of me...
Well, frankly because I haven't thoroughly swallowed the idea of me being a Senior.
It was all a shock.

And now...
A new chapter's taking place tomorrow.

Will everything change?
Hope not.
'Cause that's gonna suck, big time.

Just wanna share to you all that I've realized how we should all be on our guard always because time could hurt you.
Especially if you haven't taken advantage of it.
But hey, that's life.

We were born, we live and we die.
It's always been like that.

So while we're about to leave the institution we've grown accustomed to, I wanna take this opportunity to thank those people who've helped me in countless ways and to those who also struggled with me during the difficult times.

You guys know who you are!

You provoked me!) 'cause it turns out that you were nothing near to any of it. You're truly a beautiful person, inside and out, and I hope you don't stop being the bubbly, fun and caring person we all know of a "Lauren Silverio". Lovies!

Henriette "Henny" Trillanes - Hen! My future dorm sister! Just wanna tell you na of all the people I admired, you were the one who I admired the most. The way you think, act and speak...sometimes they just blow me away. I won't kid when I say that I find myself at times amazed by how you think. Sometimes I'd even ask myself, "What would Hen do?", whenever I'm caught in the middle of a situation. You're my true inspiration. You basically made me the person who I am today. Well...of course not you alone, but you were more dominant than the others and I wanna thank you for that! You're one of a kind:) You're the best! Please don't ever change! I LOVE YOU!

Beverly "B" Kho - 8 years Bevs! Grabe ah! Hahaha! Just wanna let you know na in those 8 years, NEVER ako nagsawa sayo. Kahit konte. You wanna know why? 'Cause I always look forward in seeing you. And I always will. Having you as a friend is too good to be true. Sometimes I'd question myself how I ended up having a friend as precious as you when I don't deserve it. I love you Bevs! I also wanna thank you for the past 8 years of joy, tears, fights, trust and laughter. Let's make more memories together! To a never ending friendship! You're the greatest!

Masyado bang emotional? Hahahaha!
I bet the song on my blog didn't help the whole dramatic feeling huh? Hahaha!

Anyway, I also wanna extend my gratitude to all the teachers and personel of O.B. Montessori.
Basically, my family:)
Kahit minsan complain ako ng complain, deep inside I love this institution.
I'll never forget you, O.B. :)

I LOVE YOU MS. JOCSON! SSSSSSUUUUUUUPPPPPPPEEEEEEERRRRRR DDDDDUUUUUPPPPPEEEEEERRRRR LOVE YOU!!!!!
You're truly a wonderful person and I highly doubt I'd ever meet anyone as beautiful and kind as you are:)
I'm so glad to be handled by a one-of-a-kind advicer in my last year at O.B.
I'M GONNA MISS YOU SO MUCH!

Oh and I also wanna thank my tutor, Sir Agot who've helped me pass my Math and Geometry subjects for the past 2 years. More power to you!

So yeah...
Love you all!

By the way, this post was to be out yesterday but since I wasn't able to post it, just wanna mention a couple of things:

After the graduation, we went straight home. The first song I heard on the radio touched me and it gotten me all teary eyed. Just wanna share to you all the song that made me realize that it's not the end of us being together. The song is entitled "Goodbye, Girl". It's an old song (what else? It was set on my parents' radio station). The song basically reaches out to a lover but the chorus part helped me remember you guys.

Here it is:

"So remember goodbye doesn't mean forever. Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean we'll never be together again. Though we may be so far apart you still will have my heart..."

And the rest goes on about the lover.
So yeah...
Saying goodbye doesn't literally mean "farewell forever".
There are unlimited possibilities we guys could see and hang out with each other.
It's not the end. It's just the beginning of a new journey as individuals.





So here's for the new beginning we are all to take.
Cheers and take care:)

Oh yeah forgot to mention, dapat andun ako sa mga kasal niyo ah! Hahaha!
Yes. Including you Ms. Jocson :)) YIHEE!!!

-Fin-

By the way, don't think of this as my last post! Hahahahaha!
Of course not! Probably my last post as a high school student.
Trust me, there are more posts to be expected from this blog in the future:)
LOVIES!

Oh yeah...HI CRUMS!
I MISS YOU :((

Bivouac = Pain

Hello there.
It's been a long time.
I've been busy lately.
Anyway since I have the time, Imma make a post.

We had our Bivouac yesterday.

2 words: IT SUCKS.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not a physically active person kaya hindi ko talaga na-enjoy yung bivouac. As for people like Mek, Gabby, Liz and other active peeps, I'm sure they had a hell of a time.


Anyway, the role up of activities given to us were:
1.) Rope Course
2.) Obstacle Course
3.) Lunch
4.) Slide for Life
5.) Rappelling

The Rope Course was...alright?
I was able to accomplish 3 parts of the course but the fourth had to be...UGH.
I can't lie here.
A lot of people saw it!

I FELL.

But not Face-First kind of fall. Mines was more of a Left-Hip-First fall.
It hurt really bad. I HONESTLY thought I was gonna die. Once I opened my eyes after the fall, I thought I broke my bones, but thankfully (at least) all I got from it was a wound (not a deep one) and scratches on my right elbow.

WHEW.
That would have sucked if I broke all my ribs.
THANK YOU!

After the Rope Course, we immediately went to the Obstacle Course.
AWWMEN. The first obstacle was hard. Hahaha!
YES. First palang ah! I couldn't carry Bevs and she couldn't carry me.
So we both looked stupid thinking of ways how to get ourselves across the wall without cheating.
Which was what we ended up doing since we were HOPELESS.
Mek helped us. Hahahaha!
Yeah. She helped us just by using her knee.
Thanks a lot Mek!
The next obstacle was the belly craw. Stupidity stung me at first 'cause I used my elbows. It hurt like hell. It made me groan until I reached the end.
Then there was the tires. I found that part very easy. Not for Bevs though.
Sumobsob siya eh. Hahahaha! SORRY BEVS! Natawa talaga ako!
Nagulat ako eh!
First tire palang nadapa ka na. Awwmen! Sorry!
The Monkey Bars was next and it was HARD. Because of the fall, my upper body became weak.
I couldn't last 3 seconds on a single bar. We all tried but noone prevailed.
Oh yeah. I wanna add that Angela Stailey was good. She was able to do the quarter of the monkey bars. Sayang hindi nga lang ren niya natapos though. Our monkey bars struggle was cut short 'cause Anjela Celso sprained her right ankle. Nahulog ren kasi siya. So she was brought to the hospital and we were told to go to the next obstacle. Then blah blah blah...

LUNCH.

Haha! WORST LUNCH EVER! Yes. Even LUNCH was challenging. The way we eat was being counted! and the worst part of it was we had to finish everything! Naawa ako kay Reb.
Naiiyak siya na ewan kasi hindi niya maubos! AAWW!!! It's okay Reb! Kami ren kaya! Haha!
Oh and thanks a lot Celina for helping me finish my rice! Stomach Saver!

After lunch, we had "Slide for Life".
I found this part VERY VERY FUN!
ANG SAYA! The height didn't bother me at all.
I was laughing my way through the whole slide.
Though yung pag "hampas" part yung masakit sa ulo.
But it didn't matter, it was all good.
I wanna add that my favorite screams were from:
1.) Annica (SUPER CUTE NIYA!)
2.) Sam
3.) Lauren (Super nakakatawa!!!)
4.) Reba
5.) Bea
6.) Bevs

The last activity was Rappelling.
It was uhm...mahirap. I didn't get the instructions that's why I was panicking my way down.
A lot of people enjoyed it, though.
DAMN.
I hate rappelling na.

After that, we fixed ourselves and packed our things.
We finished at around 6: something. Not sure.
Basta late na.
On our way to the bus, it hit me again.
I had a hard time breathing. It was like everytime I inhale and exhale, my chest would hurt.
So I tried sleeping just so then it wouldn't bother me.
By the way I wanna thank my busmate, Philip.
Thank you so much Flip!
Oh and to the others that helped me last night sa bus.
I love you guys!

So yup. That was yesterday.
I forgot to mention, my parents kinda freaked out when I told them what happened.
Hahaha! They told me not to go to school.
YEAH!
Kidding.

Anyway, today was boring. I was told to relax because of the activities yesterday.
My body hurts like HELL.
I couldn't get out of bed or do anything that involves using my arms and legs without groaning (with a hint of anger) while doing it.
HAAY...

I hate this.

Oh by the way I wanna thank my very good Betchfriend, Lauren for calling this morning just to check up on me.
Exact words of my tita: "I like her. She's a very good friend, Aina. Buti pa siya, tinawagan ka."
AAAWWW!!! Thankies Lauren! I wasn't expecting anyone to check up on me. Not even my parents. HAHA!
That short phone call made my day:)
I super duper love you!

Alright. That's about it.
Anyway, Imma make another post tomorrow if I have the time and if I'm not too lazy.
Take Care kids!
Stay in school and keep it zunk.
Peace out.

-Fin-

Here's my booboo.



YEAH...
Imma take a pic of it without the bandage.
Haha!

Oops! Forgot to mention:
Happy Birthday to my cousin, Jesmae!
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
She's like a sister!
Take care and have a great one!

Hello 2009!

Hey peeps!
I know this is SO late but hey, nasa early part pa naman tayo ng January...
So...
Happy New Year! Manigong Bagong Taon sa inyong tanan!
How was your New Year? Had fun? Were you with your family?

Mines? Good.
Nothing different from 2008.

Anyway, I've been too caught up with events and well...the usual case of "laziness" that enabled me to update this poor thing for quite a while.

I'm such a bad blogger...
tsk.tsk.tsk.

Just wanna update applepieisfuntomake... for the first time this year.
Ayoko namang palagpasin ng middle part of January. That's just going to be so sad.
So yeah...

Though I'm not gonna make a FULL story of the past events that happened in this post.
Let's just hope that laziness won't struck me again the next time I open this thing.

Haha...YEAH.


Random:

* Just wanna congratulate the people who passed La Salle, Taft.
Biggest shout-out to my former seatmate, Bea Lobaton.
Congratulations Bea-kins! So proud of you!
And a pat in the back for those who tried.
Hey! It's not the end of the world!

* I saw Rei in ATC today. Liking those Supras, Supraman! Goes well with your jacket. I mean...goes REALLY well with the jacket considering parehong-pareho yung shade ng colors with your shoes. NICE.

* I finally changed the song on my blog. It's entitled "Broken Strings" by James Morrison and Nelly Furtado. Oh! Yan na Mike! Haha! Alam kong nalilito ka dun sa lumang song ko!

* I miss Innah, Ruth, Hannah and Dom! I miss you guys! Oh and CHESKA!!!

* UPCAT results to be posted hhhmm...this week, I think. Goodluck nalang sating lahat!
Oh and not sure with USTET results ren. This week na ren ata.


Anyway, I have nothing more to mention here in my post so yeah...
Imma end it right...



Here.
Ciao!

Oh so little time

Update!!!

-December 18, Thursday-

It was our Christmas party.
More of, our LAST Christmas party in High School.
Yes, I felt a little down, but nevertheless, I made most out of it.

We had the Pagsasarili thingy in the morning. Little Pagsasarili kids went to OB for the annual Christmas party.
We had to wear our CAT uniform for the last time this year.
They were cute kids:) I especially liked the fat kid! He was ADORABLE!
Okay, I can't tell you guys a lot about our Thursday morning 'cause I was really bored.
Not that I didn't like the kids, I just wasn't in the mood that day.

Anyway, the real party started at 2 in the afternoon.
We were all dressed up in our party outfits.
Most of us, girls, wore dresses which we thought is a change from the usual slacks and skirt.
We started off with a game before we all could get our hands on the chicken.

By the way the chicken is from Rose Mary Chicken.
It's located in Phase 1 inside BF.
SUPER YUMMY!

Okay, going back.
The first game was the Calamansi Relay thingy.
It was fun.
It was the girls (mostly the betches) versus the boys.
And we all know who'd win.
WE GIRLS DID. But the boys claimed that we cheated.
Phf...yeah right. HAHA!
Then we had lunch.

After stuffing ourselves with mostly chicken, we had another game.
The game was Newspaper Dance.
It was kinda fun.
I was INTENTIONALLY partnered with Efren (long story)
Beverly was partnered with Mike, Reba was with Rei, Lauren was with Teng and AC was with Amiel.
The first pair that was taken off was AC and Amiel.
Apparently, Amiel couldn't fit well in the newspaper.

Oh yeah! Bevs you might hate me but this just made me laugh!
Favorite quote:
*The newspaper was folded in 1/4, some of us were planning on how to fit ourselves without losing balance*
Efren: "Bubuhatin nalang kita!"
Me: "NO!!! Mabigat ako! I'm a fat kid!"
Efren: "Hindi! Sige na! Okay lang!"
*the music suddenly stops and everyone except for the Bevs-Mike pair were in place*
Mike: *looks at everyone and suddenly realizes that all the girls in the game were being carried/ lifted up*
Mike: "ANG DAYA! YUNG MGA PARTNER NIYO MAGAGAAN!"

HAHAHAHAHA! Okay! I'm really sorry Bevs! Sobrang natawa ako sa sinabi ni Mike!
Okay, SKIP.

The next game was Funny Bone.
It was Beverly's turn to be paired with Efren.
Hen was with Teng, Mike was with Anjela, Bea was with Rei and Ms.Zamora was with Mr.Mendez.
THEY WERE CUTE! Especially Beverly and Ef. HAHAHA!
Okay, I'll stop.

After funny bone we had the Egg Toss.
Ms.Zamora and Rei won.
Sayang Bevs! Lakas kasi ng throw ni Bea!

Then we had the traditional Exchange Gifts.
I didn't expect Efren to pick me.
I mean of all the people I thought who got me, si Ef lang pala.
Haha! Joking.
Not that it bothers me. Unexpected lang.

After that we had a small Awarding Ceremony.
Ms.Jocson handed out certificates of recognition to everybody.
I got the "Sweetest Girl" award which I think is sort of weird since I don't consider myself as sweet at all but nevertheless I was flattered.

All-in-all: I'm glad this last Christmas party we had turned out to be the greatest one I've had in all my years in O.B.

Thanks a lot guys! I love you 4B:)

-December 19, Friday-

I went to ATC with my aunt and uncle to buy the presents I felt obligated to give to my friends. It took me hours to finally settle for boxer shorts. Haha!
Yes, boxer shorts. BUT for my girlfriends that is.
As for Mike and Louie (She was the one I got in the exchange gift and I just thought my gift was a little bitin, so I decided to buy her one more), I ended up buying shirts for them.
It was sort of embarrassing. I went to a LOT of stores just to find Mike the right shirt.
I later on surrendured and stomped off to Pop Culture (for the 3rd time) to settle for the purple robot shirt I had my eyes on during my first try in Rompa.
Then sinabay ko na ren yung shirt ni Louie.
I bought her a BROWN robot shirt. Haha! Which i realized once I got in the car that the gift I gave Louie during the Christmas party was also a BROWN shirt.

DANG. Too late na ren.
Oh well.

Oh and I saw ate Eyzelyn in Pop Culture.
It was a little awkward but she made the awkwardness go away once she lifted a hand and greeted me a 'hi'.
As a polite person would do, I said 'hi' back.

HHAAAYYY...

-December 20, Saturday-

Went to Amalias to see of what I thought would be a complete 4B for the last time this year.
A lot didn't come, but it still fun. At least andun yung mga happy peeps.
Aw! AC wasn't there:((

I was a little early so I stopped by Tropical Hut to buy the sprayer I promised Mike I'd bring so then he'd give me the fungicide suspension which hindi na natuloy kasi natapon sa bag ni Che yung spray ng fungicide. AWMEN.

Anyway, after buying the spray I still had a LOT of time ahead of me so I went to Ruins with my uncle
We looked around for awhile and finally got a text from Bevs that says that I could go to her place just to kill the time.
So I went to Beverly's breathtaking place.
GRABE! ANG GANDA.
It was like a resort! I SUPER DUPER love the 4th floor(?). Her parent's have really good taste! Kudos to them!

Then we went to Amalias na.
I greeted Ms.Jocson with an "A for promptness!" quote since we really early.
It was my first time in Amalias. Bevs and I were the first ones to arrive.
Then Ruf and Paola followed.
And so did the others.

We had spaghetti with fish sticks(?), paella and for dessert we had frozen brazo.
The food was yummy. I especially liked the paella.
Si Ms.Jocson pa nga yung nag cook for us eh.
It was really special.
After that we took some pics outside Amalia's and bid Ms.Jocson goodbye and a merry Christmas.
Reb, Lauren, Hen, Anjela, Mike and Rei went to Platinum while Teng, Gaby, Drea, Zhaii, Ruf and Paola went to Drea's house.
Bea had to go to Alabang to visit her mom and Bevs and I decided to stay at her place for the Christmas party.

We did NOTHING.
We took pictures, experimented on some and had the guts to make a CRIBS episode featuring Beverly's more-of-a-mansion-than-a-house house.
Specifically the 4th floor(?) which I think is the greatest floor I've seen compared to the other floors.
We had several attempts, most of which contains clips of Beverly laughing due to lack of confidence and concentration.
I did my share too since Bevs wouldn't last 3 minutes without laughing on cam.
I would say mines was a lot better than Bevs. I was pretty confident doing it.
But the last part had to be the greatest.
We kept on repeating that last scence and laughed endlessly.
It was funny.

The edited version of the compiled attempts will come soon.

By the way, I saw Min Seun and Sarina Legaspi at Bevs' place.

Had a great time at your place Bevs! Even though wala tayong ginawa! Haha!

-December 21, Sunday-

I woke up at 3:30 am for Simbang Gabi.
Bread of Life was due to perfrom at the dawn mass on December 21.
Since I lost my voice (Well, not completely. More of a hoarse voice but nevertheless a whisper is all I could do successfully) I was ordered to be in computer duty since I sound horrible in my condition and I don't think the people will appreciate Nickelback as the second voice. So basically, I was the one who's gonna show the lyrics to the song on the projector.
And as expected, I made a couple of mistakes.. again.

HHHAAAYYY...

After that we went to Tagaytay.
Then the rest of the day was boring.
I mostly slept 'cause I was tired and I felt sick.

Dang you CHOCOLATES!!!!

-December 22, Monday-

Wasn't able to attend Simbang Gabi since my dad didn't allow me to because of the cold wind that might make my hoarse throat worst.

I did nothing except using the PC and reading Twilight.

BORING.

Oh and my voice is a lot better than yesterday, though it's the same voice I had at Amalias.
Still no sign of complete recovery.

I sound like David Cook.

AAAWWWMMMEEENNN!!!!

-Part 2-

I'm currently reading Twilight.
Finally, I've finished half of the book.
The book is nice kaso lang SOBRANG tagal ni Bella mag describe ng stuff.
Fully detailed siya mag describe, that's why I skip a lot of paragraphs.
They're sort of boring.
As far as I've read, I'm much more satisfied with the book rather than the movie.

Here are some of what I noticed about the book that was quite off in the movie:
* Edward is a lot more nicer in the book. Kasi for me, Edward in the movie is sort of suplado and masungit while Edward sa book, he's pretty talkative, he laughs a lot and friendly siya.
* Bella is more outgoing. Kasi sa movie, sobrang "twitchy" siya but in the book she acts pretty cool and normal. In the movie, she keeps a lot of things to herself.
For me, it was a little O.A.
* Bella didn't meet Jacob in her place, she met Jacob at the beach.
* Mike, Eric and Tyler likes Bella.
* SOBRANG dramatic nung attempt nilang gawing sa woods yung scene na malalaman na ni Bella na vampire pala si Edward. I hated that scence. SOBRANG O.A.
The real thing was they were in the car talking and it was casual.
No drama at all.

Basta! I like the book more than the movie.
Quite dissapointing.
Haay nako.
I hope New Moon will be a lot better.
Oh and I hope na palitan na nila si Jacob.
I NEVER EVER want to see his face again.
Haha!

-Fin-

Pictures will come soon and so will the Cribs video too.

By the way, I'm gonna be out on December 26 to December 29.
I'll be going to Leyte to attend my cousins wedding.
I'll update this thing with probably pics of my short vacation.

Oh and MIKE!!!!
YUNG PLANT NATIN!!!! I think it's dying:((
But since wala akong choice, Imma have to take care of it.
Damn you Group 2! Haha!

Ilang days nalang! It's gonna be CHRISTMAS!
Bilis noh?

Vote or Die!

Yo guys! We, the 4B, took random pictures last week.
And boy, we made WEIRD experiments.

Hen or Reb(?) got the idea of using mirrors to produce weird photos.
So we took EVERYBODY'S picture (including...guess who?)
And they had a bet that the picture with the most votes will be treated out by everyone who partake of the contest (uhm...that would be ALL OF 4B)

So, here are the "leading" pictures with the most comments in Reba's Multiply Site.


Hen
My opinion: uhm...mukha siyang natural except for the eyes. HAHA!


Bevs
My opinion: Bevs looks like a sick Chinese girl


Ms.Pitargue
My opinion:
Ang scary ng eyes!


Reba
My opinion: uhm, Reb...you look like an ape. SORRY!


Angela
My opinion: FUNNY!
She looks like Quasimodo from the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Sorry Angela!


Lauren
My opinion:
no comment.


Alright.
Those are the leading ones.
There's a poll available to the right (below the bear) about this contest, so you vote!
Okay? PLEASE VOTE!
It's for a good cause!
Help the needy and the mentally challenged!
HAHAHAHAHA! KIDDING!


So do what the t-shirt says!
VOTE!

Happy Birthday to Cristina Catarungan!
She's finally older than me! Haha!

Saturday of Saturdays

Hello there! Been a while!
Just wanna update.

December 11- Food Fair

Haha. It was alright. I swear I ate A LOT that day! There were a lot of food to choose from BUT only a few made my taste buds happy. I LOVED the arozcaldo! Kudos sa "Meals on Wheels" for that! It was TASTY! Haha!
So, we sold shakes and NOT ice cream. Hahaha!
Yes, apparently our tarpaulin said "ICE CREAM AND SHAKES" which was kind of weird since we weren't selling ice cream at all. It was sort of embarrassing 'cause some ordered ice cream and all we could say was "uhm, shakes lang po binebenta namin" or "we don't sell ice cream" and afterwards they'll give us the "bakit-pa-may-ice cream-sa-tarpaulin-niyo-kung-hindi-kayo-magbebenta-nun" look.
It was a cringe moment.

Anyway, we earned about 13000+.
Okay na ren noh? BUT we lost to the 1st year students "Sago't Gulaman" booth.
MEN. Hahaha! Well, at least 2nd place?

Oh and good thing walang nag over-heat na blender! WHEW!
Good job 4B!

Wow. Last Food Fair ko na pala yun.
Oh well.

-Event 2-

December 13 - ATC

Went to ATC last Saturday.
SUPER DUPER FUN DAY!
Gosh! Kahit wala kaming ginawa, SOBRANG fun paren!

First was Beverly's visit to my house.

To Bevs: Told you wala tayong gagawin!

Gave her a tour of my house, took pictures and ate lunch.

Here are some pictures:




Then we went to ATC and met up with Luis in the cinemas.
Hen and Mike told us they would come late so we decided to stop by Coffee Bean And Tea Leaf

Pictures:




Mike arrived after a few minutes in his "outside" mood.
Damn you!

THEN Bevs and I went to the cinemas 'cause Twilight was gonna start soon and gave Hen's movie ticket to Luis and Mike (they already watched) in case they bump into her.
Unfortunately, the movie started when we came in.
Hen came 10-15 minutes later.

Favorite quote:
Bevs was texting her mom and Mike during the movie.
Bevs: "Whoaw. Guys! Tingnan niyo text sakin ni Mike oh!"
Text Message: "Sige lang, anak!"
Me and Hen: *Laughs at the random message*
Bevs: "What the hell?!? Ang random!"
*checks her sent messages*
Bevs: "Oh! Kaya naman pala"
*shows us a sent message*
Sent Message: "To Mike: Okay, ma. Thanks!"
Me and Hen: *Laughs out completely*
Bevs: *Replies to Mike's text*
"Sorry! Kala ko mom ko!"
Mike's Reply: "Sorry! Kala ko anak ko!"

HAHAHAHA! That was some random but funny shit!

Oh! By the way, Twilight was alright. I expected a lot but nevertheless it was worth seeing.
Oh well. I'm just gonna have to read the book to feel the "thrill"

Oh and yes. Jacob's face was DEAD annoying!
GRABE!!! Nung nakita ko siya, nagsisi ako agad.
Well, whatev! I'm just glad they'll replace him in New Moon.
(Well. Sana totoo!)

Anyway, SKIP.
After the movie, we ate at Food Court. We saw Ilana and Andre together.
Then went to Timezone, saw Ilana and Andre AGAIN.

Proof:





Oh yeah! We took pictures using Neo-Print(?)
FUN! HAHAHAHA!

Ay! Oo nga! Random deed:
While some koreans were playing basketball, Bevs joined in.
I mean, habang naglalaro sila, bigla nalang sumolpot si Bevs at naki-shoot ng bola. KAPAL NO? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Buti nalang masyadong concentrated yung korean kid at hinayaan na.
Love that Bevs!

Since my dad was calling me for the -th time, I told Bevs to text her mom so then she could pick us up and drive me home (Bevs was my ride the whole day)
So we left and stopped by Festival Mall 'cause her mom was shopping for furniture.
We waited for a while, talked, ate dinner and left.

By the way, your (Beevee's) mom's COOL.
And I mean it!
Thankies again!

Okay, so here's the weird part:
You guys know that I'm not into going out, partying and the like outside with friends right?
Well, that's partially because my parent's (specifically, my dad) don't allow me to.
Since I went home at around 9 that Saturday, I was fully prepared to be scolded by my dad once Beverly drops me off.
I was gonna say a couple of excuses when he interrupted and asked me about my day.
I said it was fun and I had a great time (I was little confused of the delayed scolding)
It turned out, he was TOTALLY fine with it.
He didn't even bother asking my why we took long.
Basta! Sobrang unexpected.
I know it's a little shallow, but if you were in my place or you were a close friend of mine, you'd understand.

More pics:








Too bad Lauren and Pat weren't there:(
Next time Betches!

-Fin-

Happy Birthday to Cristina Catarungan!
Acutally bukas pa eh. Haha!
Well, advance!
