happy blog-niversary!!!
OMG

Have I told you I've been blogging here for a year already?

The blog-niversary is April 19. Huh.

Why is it that when I reach the one-year point, I suddenly want a change of scene, a change of blogs, a change of URL or whatever?

I guess I just can't stay in one place.

But whatever.

One year, huh! And I've only had 2 LAYOUTS!!!

HAH, I think that's something to be proud of! I think.

OR whatever.

And so far, 6,156 hits!!!

WOOOOOW, that's a lot! I mean that may be how many BryanBoy gets in a day, but for me...

...That's a LOT!!!!!!!

Although I'm making a good guess atleast 5% of those are from me, from the constant checking and reviewing and seeing if I said something wrong or if I misspelled something.

Oo na, grammar nazi na!!!

But I mean, before I used to do all sorts of things to get more hits and comments, pero ngayon, I'm not even doing anything! Just doing my stuff and making daldal and kwento. :))

Ano kaya meron, no?

Walang daya yan, ha. Check my counter at the bottom of my nav page.

I mean I still don't get a LOT of comments per post, but don't blame that on me, blame it on the READERS WHO WON'T LET ME KNOW THEY'RE READING! Kayo ha. Sige na, let me know. I won't bite. Kahit naman wala kayong blog it's okay eh.

I don't even have that much links...but really, the numbers really surprise me!!! And where people come from! I've got dots on Europe and America and in Asia too. Massive dots for the Philippines, which is not very surprising. razz

I'll check back on May 7 to see how much the numbers have grown (or not.)

I think I've come a long way in blog-dom. Some people come up to me in school and tell me they enjoy reading my blog. mrgreen Hindi ko nga alam na binabasa nila eh!

But Thank You, people. Really.redface

I mean... Wala lang, I feel like I'm a better person than in my previous blog. lol

Or maybe I'm just imagining things, or whatever.

THANKS talaga for everyone who care to drop by and read!!!

Vicky LOVES you soooo much!!! razz


You make me so, so happy. wink

My head hurts a lot and I have this overall ick factor that SUCKS.

I mean the mosquitoes, or whatever the insects are, are practically eating me alive. Man.

And the house generally has a darker "ambiance" or vibes or whatever you want to cause it, and I reckon it's because of the construction and the people in here. Damn. I want my place, and suddenly I want things to go back to the way they were. But whatever, I asked and begged for this, so no pain, no gain.

* * *

Speaking of pain, my ears are RINGING already. But I won't stop listening to music.

Okay, I've stopped listening already.

Whatever.

* * *

So I've been visiting Multiply pages a lot lately, and then I suddenly find myself missing some people, and wondering if they're mad at me. I mean... I don't know. This girl didn't reply to my comment, and I'm not quite sure if she has a valid reason to get mad at me, but I have a feeling that she does. Sayang, I miss her a lot. sad

It's not that she didn't reply to my comment kaya galit siya...

It's... hard to explain.

Exactly.

Whateverrrrrr. All this thinking makes my head hurt.

* * *

I've been racking my head to find a new URL for my future new blog with a future new layout. I've tried making a layout, but DAMN I am so frustrated and out of inspiration. The things normally just come to me, or something just snaps and BOOM, instant masterpiece.

But now... I can't even think of anything! And the URLs are driving me nuts. Haaay, bahala na!!!

* * *

My body clock is DRIVING ME TO THE BRINK OF INSANITY.

I'm telling you.

Last night I had to take medication so that I could go to sleep.

That was 4 in the morning, and it was my mum's time to wake up. She was like... "Natulog ka na ba? Bakit gising ka pa?"

I really couldn't sleep.

There are times when I'd get lucky and get to sleep at 1 am. Swerte na ako nun.

* * *

Haaay. I think I need to eat rice again. I think that's what making my head hurt.

Naaaah, medoubts it.

what i would give...
... for my own laptop.

I could smell the burning metal of the charger. There's something wrong with the battery of this laptop kasi, so you have to keep it charged ALL THE TIME.

So you can't use it in the plane or whatever. It has to have a socket nearby.

Grabe.

It doesn't have to be a MacBook, atleast for now when I have no choice. Beggar's can't be choosers.

Come to think of it, I have no idea why I want a laptop so much. I mean, they're all there, and the burning desire is...well...burning.

It just makes me feel at ease, being in front of a computer, because I know I can take control. There are numerous possibilities between the computer, the internet and me. Wala pa ang photoshop sa combination na yan! :-P

* * *

Speaking of which, I haven't been photoshop-ing lately. I tried last night, but my muse(es) have abandoned me. No sleeping pill guy, no prince.

Haaaay.

* * *

I'm also stuck with my future URLs.

Something about...


Cause there's Miss/Madame KFC, Riotgrrrl and the lost girl.

But I'm not actually lost.

So let's narrow it down to Miss/Madame KFC and Riotgrrrl.

Hay. Help me.

my footie day.
Watching?
The Biggest Loser.

Ang sexy ng coach ng Team Red! Haha.

* * *

Today was a good Soccer Day. I cannot blame anyone, not even for myself for being not competitive. You can't choose what you want to fight for. You just know. There's this burning desire to win. The will to win. The itching to get the ball off your opponent's feet.

Sadly, I have to wait for something...for someone to ignite the burning desire.

It's in me, I could feel the fire starting.

I just need someone to accidentally spill the kerosene and I'll be on fire.

:-))

Too bad the old flame as gone and left the building, if you know what I'm saying.

No you don't.

HAHA.

* * *

Anyways. About the Soccer Day.

Lia's getting better than me.

There's no stopping a sporty girl.

But I don't mind at all, because I'm not very sporty.

HAHAHAHA.

I'm playing DEFENSE again today, and it sucks ass. NO ACTION. I should start playing Striker soon. SOON. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON.

I could have died and not experience making a goal attempt, what more a goal.

Well, atleast I've worked on my concentration. :)) And even if the score was 4-nil (We LOST), I can't blame myself for that. Nor can I blame my teammates. It's everyone's fault for not wanting the BALL hahahahah.

But all together, it was a good day. I loved the exercises. They were funny. Wooo.

* * *

I think I've grown to love the kids on our footie class.

I've said it, and I'll say it again. I have kids probably younger than my sister playing on the team.

And they're a lot of fun, and they're determined...

...And they're VERY good. :))

corny one.
Watching?
PBB Uber ba to?

Mehearts the foreign boys. Actually, lahat ng boys.

Sorry. Ganito talaga pag barren ang lovelife.

* * *

I AM DELIRIOUS WITH HAPPINESS.

I didn't realize how happy I feel until now, thinking of what I'll put down.

I mean, today has been a relatively happy day. Not actually relative, but today is a GREAT day. Fitness First Dude has made a surprise appearance(siyempre yun palang tuwang-tuwa na ako) and then a lot of something elses... and then the pizza I had at Sbarro, once again, today...

...and then this.

This.

It's something so simple, and I cannot understand WHY I feel this way.

I'd understand if I'd feel pleased or something low-key like that.

Pero giddy? Excited? On the edge of my seat? Deliriously happy?

Oh blardie hell no.

Haaay.

I hate having these feelings. Sigurado sa dulo may feeling of wistfulness, of loss...and then of regret.

Even if there's nothing I should really regret.

Remember Prince **** from my Of couples, Prince Charmings and Fairytales Post?...

No No, God forbid that he is the subject of my woes.

I'm just going to ask him to save me. Leave his Princess **** for a while and save me.

craving
Speaking of which, I've been CRAVING a lot lately.

And I think I know why.

These days, I've been waking up between 9:30 to 11 am. I ABHOR waking up at 11. It makes my head hurt. I was very jolly indeedy to discover that I've woken up at 10:55 kanina, 5 minutes before 11. Which means that my head won't hurt.

Given that, it means that I've been missing the most important meal of the day, nya nya... breakfast.

And I'll tell you this. Everyday, I've been having only 2 meals a day. From lunch to dinner, with low-medium snacking level. From dinner to sleep time, MAJOR SNACKING LEVEL.

And I've been craving for things easily lately. When I read about muffins, I crave muffins. When I read about sandwiches, I crave about whatever sandwich comes to mind. Even the sole thinking of food makes me crave for them.

And when I crave for food... Ahhh, nothing will come in my way.

Remember, SM is only a trike ride a way. If the weather's right and I'm feeling good, it's only a short walk away.

Sbarro was good kanina, it satisfied my craving for a New York's Finest pizza. I'm no idiot, I know NY's Finest could only be found in Yellowcab, but they don't offer things in slices (what kind of pizzeria is that?) and the 10" pizza was a lot for me to pay for alone for a single craving. So MuyMuy suggested Sbarro, and I said sure, but I changed my mind lots of times before that. Until I crossed Sbarro and thought...fine.

Come Sbarro. AAAAH, their PIZZA is absolutely delish. Me loves it. :)

Too bad a huge slice flew off my fork. I don't know how it happened, it just did. I grave for that poor slice. (It was practically HALF my pizza. That's HUGE.)

And now, I'm craving for an egg sandwich again. This time with Bacon.

DAMN. T_T

Vicky can't boil an egg.
Watching?
etc.

Hay. I prefer JackTV nowadays.

I LOVE Brainiac. They do the stupid experimenting for you! It's awesome.

And the cartoons, of course.

* * *

I'm planning to take cooking lessons on the 8th of May but I CAN'T BOIL AN EGG.

How SIMPLE is it? It's a no-brainer thing. It's even a giveaway on the name. You boil and egg.

DUH.

But that's the thing. I'm guessing that my friend Angelique is right. I overthought things once again, and I managed to take off the egg a tad too early.

The disgusting part is, I still took the egg, cut it up (even if the yolk burst out) and put it carefully in my bread. White bread. I know anything white is the enemy of anyone who wants to lose weight, but there was no wheat bread available, and I was SERIOUSLY craving for an egg sandwich. And hell hath no craving like Vicky's.

And besides, that was already my 2nd ruined boiled egg. Sayang yung itlog noh.

tv in our room, reading what they write, friendster, multiply and wanderlust.
Watching?
Blind Date

Thinking...
This show is so dated. No good stuff on this show. How old is this show anyway?

* * *

I felt like blogging, just for the sake of it. :)) That's what I do when I read nice blogs. I feel like blogging.

* * *

It's so nice to have a TV in your room. Well technically MY room, it's mine, Chiara's and my mum's room. Don't ask how the arrangements are that way, it involves a psycho-analysis of my Mum, so there. My clothes and other stuff are at "our old room".

So back to the TV. It all felt so alien to me since I started hanging out here more last night. It isn't technically alien. How many rooms have I been to that had a TV in it?

It just dawned on me that I could stay here the whole day and live. There's the TV after all, and there's this laptop, and I can just put on my Sixteen Candles DVD and I will live.

It's so awesome. I'm watching the Simpsons in my bed! Nyahaha. I don't have to bother about bringing an electric fan out to the living room because it makes me feel guilty to have two aircons on simultaneously. (The one in OUR room is almost always running.)

My mum is thinking of buying a plasma TV for our living room, JUST TO MAXIMIZE THE SPACE, and if EVER that we have spare money left (medoubts it, though) Of course, if I mention it out loud, it means that I am jinxing it, so I won't be expecting a sleek, black wine-glass flat-screen TV (come on, we've all seen THAT commercial before the movies) in the near future.

But if EVER it happens, it's going to be a toss-up for me and Chiara between the TV and the PC. We're going to have our own rooms after the house is renovated, and the PC won't have any place to stay in. It simply can't stay outside, and it can't stay in our mum's room. SO it's either:

a) we decide who gets the PC
b) we give up one room and make it the PC room. which means we have to share a room, God forbid.

Although I'm still not sure if the TV is up for grabs, since when I gave my mum the idea, she shrugged and said "we could give it to the maid's quarter."

Pretty awesome, since we all don't have to grumble if ate wants to see the lottery numbers, but please. There has to be an equivalent of a PC, if ever someone gets it.

Haaaay. I'm talking about stuff that I doubt will turn out the way I put them here.

* * *

I'm thinking if people actually read what I write. Not that I mind if they don't, because I do that sometimes. I just browse real fast over posts, sometimes not even read them at all. Oftentimes though, I get the nub and the gist of the post. I won't be suprised if people are that way though.

Which isn't the same in my blog, because many different topics are presented in whole lengthy post.

Sometimes, though, one topic makes quite a lengthy post and I will bet my shorts that is where people lose their concentration.

Just recently, I've started reading posts the way I want my "readers" to read mine. I've commented or tagged, if ever commenting wasn't allowed.

It's much better that way, I think. I get to appreciate their blogs more and look forward to more posts. :))

* * *

Friendster is really shitty right now. How come the pictures won't pop out, dammit?

I've been thinking of my old gradeschool friends right now, and I JUST friendstered one of them, and his picture won't pop out! I can't even see his face now!

Ewan ko. I just felt like Friendster-ing them. Feel ko lang. Especially the ones who don't study in my school anymore.

I'm very good with names and faces. :-) I saw my Grade 2 class picture a while ago and I remember everyone, first name and last name, except for this one kid. I remember him, Kookie Akutagawa? I forgot the last name, basta it's Japanese. Akukagawa ata. Basta ganun yung tunog. I wonder how they are now. :)) Do they remember me kaya? I bet not. Boys don't remember those type of things.

Speaking of which, I just edited my friendster AGAIN, I was getting bored of my old layout. Here I am, with a Beatles background. And I ADORE it. IT was a toss-up between the Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band inspired artwork or the 100 movie icons one. I love them both. Might use the 100 movie icons when I feel like it.

Clik Here.

Bebols? Man, ang baho. Haha!

* * *

Time flies fast when I am in front of a laptop.

* * *

I also changed my Multiply layout.

Clik HERE.

I hate my URL. I'll probably change it one day. :))

The layout was a half-heart choice, and I just put it on because I wanted something decent on my multiply. It's not quite me, most especially the header. With my luck, I'd have someone thinking I'm referring to them.

I don't like it kasi when someone else has the same layout as mine, but what the heck, I just went to customized themes and clicked away. It's quite cute though, if I say so myself.

I am amazed by the good layouters at Multiply. I mean HOW DO THEY DO IT? Hahaha. I like the headers, especially.

I should experiment more.

And bear to learn the CSS. Man, it's even more complicated than Blogger's. :)) So much parts and stuff. But it's OK. Right now, with all my stuff going on, I need my spare time. :-P

* * *

AAAAACK I have a bad case of Wanderlust, and I know it's genetic. It's not that my mum is experiencing wanderlust, but she DOES like to travel.

I am jealous since she's in Brunei right now.

Well, not really. I don't know if I could see anything in Brunei.

Haaaay. I want to tour the French Indies (Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia). And then Singapore, of course. And then Cambodia! Angkor Wat!!! :))

I want to tour the Philippines too.

I'm quite disappointed with myself on this note. I could name very FEW places in the Philippines that I've actually been to. This doesn't count malls, Batangas, Cavite, Laguna and Tagaytay and shopping places.

And then my neighbor whose house I've been frequenting just came home from a Bohol trip, and then she shares that it's the best place to be in, the beach is awesome, and that she thinks that the Philippines is really a beautiful country.

It is, I haven't really got the chance to see it. :)

But right now, I'm itching to go to the French Indies. And JAPAN!!! Woopee.

My sister Chiara gave an opinion at the dinner table the other night. She says that she doesn't want to go to Asian countries besides Japan. I'd guess the reason for that is...well... Asian countries don't necessarily have the "glamour factor" if youknowwhati'msaying. Now don't be mad, I know Singapore and China are fairly glamorous Asian countries, but heck man, she's a
kid. HAHA.

I've tried to convince her to want to go to Vietnam with us in the future, but she irritatedly reply..."eeeeehhhhh...."

Whatever.

* * *

Maybe I should post different topics in different posts.

I'd try that. :))

Hold on.

Is at:
The neighbour's, buggering her laptop once again. Muymuy's finally back from her trip to Bohol, and I'm guessing we're trekking off to SM later to get some snacksies.

That is one of the loveliest things about being near a mall.

* * *

Badum...bawap. Badum...bawap.

I'm bored with my blog.

And it feels so unfair to have a new layout and a new link when there are so many photoshop "jobs" that I have in line.

Eh it's not my fault I know myself better, therefore making it easy for me to make stuff!

Haaah. I'm thinking of which URL i'd get.

* * *

F*CK people who make blogspots, FORGET to log in them for AGES and then just... LEAVE, without even closing their account!

I checked out one URL that I'd like to have. And when I went to the site, THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! No letter or whatever. I mean, people. people please. Sayang yung mga magaganda niyong URL.

Haaaay. I'd have to find a way around this name that I'm thinking of.

Oh shit.

Now I'm stuck with two URLs that I like.

Hala.

Bahala na.

It's either the decent, out-of-this-world one, or the rockandroll ish one.

If you know me, you'd know which one I'm leaning toward to.

***

Anyways. I'd be back when something juicy hits me. I'd be having them snacksies at the FoodCourt. :D

Okay, medyo negative yung last post ko. But whatever. It's called freedom of speech. Bato-bato sa langit, tamaan wag magalit.

Throw rocks at the heavens, who's hit don't be anger.

AHAHAHAHAHAH Whatebs.

* * *

I'm going to talk about yesterday. It's sad that I don't have pictures to accompany my kwentos, but wtheck right.

* * *

I played football last night at the Tahanan football field. Football Fanatics, the program's called. And HELL, little did I know that I would be playing with kids. Kids, man. Kids younger than my younger sister.

But you know what? IT'S FUN.

* * *

Let's start from the tragicnosity of my travels to Lia's home.

Everyone knows it's been raining these past few days. But yesterday was an extraordinarily sunny day.

Extraordinarily sunny, atleast until my trike arrived at the waiting station in Toyota.

Yes, I'm not EVEN exaggerating an inch. So I was waiting for quite a while in Toyota for my trike. Many ones arrive, but sadly, not many enough to actually reach me. So I wait. A few empty ones arrive, but they take a U-Turn. I wait... and wait. And then when I finally see one approaching me...then it starts to pour. The rain, not the tricycles. So I, being a really sunny person, (excuse me, but THE FCKNG DRILL IS EXHAUSTING MY EARS.) I just enjoyed the ride. Atleast malamig, and the rain isn't so bad. In fact, I like how it feels when it hits my skin while the tricycle breezes on.

And then, because I'm really a very LUCKY girl, the rain suddenly became heavier. But you know, I really enjoyed it. I could name a dozen people who would cringe and who would hate what happened to me, in any case that they were in the same situation as I, but I enjoyed it. It was raining, and I didn't mind getting wet (I was wearing a dri-fit shirt anyway.) and it was a good and different feeling. The trike driver even stopped at a small place to wait the rain out, because it was raining so hard. But I'm good, and I'm cool, and I was born chill, so there.

Okay so the rain stops for a while, and lo and behold, here comes the sun! Not even exaggerating (not a huge fan of exaggerating things). The rain stops and the sun suddenly says hi.

Dammit. From lamig, to init kagad. So we reach their street. The stubborn driver didn't even try to reach the end of the street! He assumed na wala kagad yung #14 dun sa part ng road. But of course, I trusted the driver anyway, so I allowed him to drive on. What could I do anyway?

So drive, drive the driver does.

We finally reach the other part of Lia's street. He stops at a blue-gated house who has number 14 nga naman. Okay. No one comes out.

Vicky: I'm in front of your house na.
Lia: San ka?
Vicky: Anong color ng
gate niyo?
Lia: white. You're not here!
Vicky: Sigurado ka bang kanan na
*insert Lia's street*
Lia: Kanan dapat! Sa may clubhouse nga diba?

Okay, it's well-established that I was lost since Lia declared that her house's gate is white.

But Vicky being Vicky, I didn't panic. Why the hell would I?

So I pace up and down the street, looking for another house with a #14 with it. Buying time for Lia to reply, contemplating on what to do.

But I did it all holding my pretty pink umbrella up with a smile on my face.

I just realized that I like being lost. I'm such a chill person, I'd probably find a way to go home if I lost my mum in MOA. I like discovering things for myself. Myself alone. Although it's always nice and much more funnier to be lost with someone else... I just enjoy the company of myself a lot these days. So there, I like being lost.

Pacing up and down the length of the street, a kind lady comes out of one house and asks...

Lady: "Hija, saan ka?"
Vicky: #14 *insert Billie's street* daw po?
Lady:
"Ayy Hija, sa kabilang part yun. Doon oh. *points to a gate dividing the two
streets* sa likod nung malaking kotse"
Vicky: Paano po pumunta dun?
Lady: Iikot ka pa, hija.
Vicky: Saan po?
Lady: Doon sa may tapat ng
clubhouse.

And then I remember the street that we first passed by kanina.

Vicky: Thank you po! :)

And then it started to rain again.

Walk. Walk. Walk.

After a matter of minutes, the sun comes up.

I all do this, once again, with my trusty umbrella and a smile plastered on my face.

Because that's how I felt. I felt...like smiling. It's a different feeling. I do like getting lost. :)) That's saying something. Getting lost in BF is no joke. :))

So I FINALLY reach Lia's place, all sweaty and all...

...But I never counted myself as an unlucky girl, even after all that happened. :)

* * *

And then there were the "characters".
In case you're wondering, I'm playing football/soccer.

I rode Lia's car with her parents up to Tahanan Village's park. When Lia said that she was playing with kids, I thought that:

a) there were a few people our age as well.
b) kids, being Chiara's age.


Well, I was almost right on both assumptions. We have a Korean "classmate" who's 17 years old, who doesn't talk, and who looks like a kid. He doesn't look like 17, that's what I'm saying. So there WAS a PERSON our age.

And the kids, oh the kids. The kids are grouped by age. And holy hell. The kids I played with are probably 8-11 years old.

Kids.

And the only people who look are age are I, Billie and her teammate, Chiaki.

It sounds weird when I say it, but I almost actually didn't notice that I was playing with kids. There were 11 boys and 6 girls. The 3 being us, the giants, and the other 3 being Carla, Bianca and the other one whose name I didn't hear.

But here's the catch.

Kahit wala kaming ka-age, kahit walang gwapo na ka-age namin (wala, kahit dun sa mga naglalaro sa court. But I didn't look, I'm on boy withdrawal.)...

Gwapo nga yung coach namin. :-))

My neighbor MuyMuy's boyfriend Jet has told me about him prior to my training. Gwapo nga daw. Kahit siya, na conceited na Arabo (I say this with much affection) sinasabi na gwapo si Coach AVERY.

Heehee Nice name. Avery. Sosy pakinggan.

So Coach Avery. Coach Avery isn't my type, since he doesn't sport the tall and big look, but he is, I would bet, generally considered as gwapo. He speaks really good English (plus points. :) ) And he's nice and good with kids.

But you don't want to hear that. You want to hear what type of gwapo he is.

Think Rico Yan, but semi square-jawed, and a bit darker, with longer hair. For short: chinito with darkish skin. Which is okay with me, because I don't usually like fair guys (with the exception of THIS guy, who radiates because he is so white. i'm talking about my grade 4 crush. the SOURCE OF LIGHT.) He is quite skinny, but muscular.

Like I said, not my type of body type. :))

But he's nice, and he's kind and....

He said we were good defenders!!! And he was looking at me when he said that!!! HAHA.

Inunahan na ako ni Lia sakanya. But still. Atleast may eye candy sa field. I mean come on. I can't ogle the kids, that would be child abuse.

Also, he didn't seem to pick on us because we were the older kids.

And he knows my name! HAHAHA.

And he's pretty cool. He taught us how to do the scissors(!!!) and some other techniques that I FORGOT.

Pretty basic stuff, but I do like sweating, especially when I'm having fun while sweating.

And the kids. The kids are AMAZING players!

Especially Bianca. Bianca the girl who helps coach a lot. Bianca who scored 3 goals for us!!! But I like all the kids. They're such...kids! They tease and taunt and flaunt.

I don't know all the boys yet. They're 11, and they all look alike to me. But I'd bet they'd be gwapo, conyo boys when they grow up. HAHA.

* * *

And then there was scrimmage.

Scrimmage is when we "play". We were divided into two teams, and then we play against each other.

Coach grouped me with the "vests" team. Vests being the Yellow Victory Liner vests. I remember one kid saying...

"Oh maaan! Not the Victory Liner!!!"

Hahah nakakatuwa.

I didn't mind being separated from Lia and Chiaki because... a) I was with kids anyway, no one would yell at me for sucking. b) I'm used to being alone anyways.

So coach distributed the vests to kids...I don't know what method he used. But I was hoping he would distribute to either Lia and Chiaki. But no. So there.

First, coach asked who wanted to be a defender.

Being a true-blue defender, I wanted to be a defender. And no one among the kids wanted to be a defender. So I raised my hand anyway. It's better than being a goalie.

But tomorrow, I'll definitely try to be a striker. Woo.

But hey, I think if I were to play in the field, I was born to be a defender. Hehehe.

The thing is, sometimes though, I forget what to do. I space out in the field. Like if there's a striker coming in with the ball, I don't know what to do. Do I make agaw? Do I kick the ball out of his feet?

One thing I do know though. I have a thing for injuring people.

Last summer, I injured both shins of one teammate of mine overnight. One shin each day. This summer, I injured Lia's toe.

Kawawa yung mga bata pag ako kalaban. I'm guessing it's better that I'm a defender.

Haaay. Training bukas. Orange day tomorrow! We have two uniforms kasi, and the kids wear Gray on Wednesdays and Orange on Fridays. I'll see Billie and the rest of the kids and our cute coach nanaman.

Haaaay. Long posts strain my brain.

Peace y'all.

social objections.
Listening to:
The NOISE made by the DRILL. The F-in DRILL. Dammit. They're starting on the construction. Basic stuff palang naman, and lolo says we don't have to move out, so yey for that. It's just hard to have...ehrm...so much men in the house, when you're used to an all-girl household. I swear to the heavens above, Champ our dog is the only one gifted with the Y chromosome. I'm having doubts on Mikee the dog's sexuality. I think he's gay. Or maybe he's just a sweetie. But still. Mikee the dog is also Mikee the fat one. Mikee is huge. My Vanilla, on the other hand, is considerably sexy. Buti pa aso ko. :-)) And have I told you about our beautiful Labrador, Macy? I like her. She reminds me of myself. In fact, I've been told that if I were a dog, I'd be a Labrador. A brown one. Just like Macy.

Oh what the heck, might as well listen to my iPod.

Really Listening to:
Merry Happy - Kate Nash
When Did Your Heart Go Missing - Rooney
Daisy Duke - Rooney
If It Were Up To Me - Rooney
YEY ROONEY!
All Star - Smashmouth (YEHES NOW.)
I Am the Walrus - Bono and the Secret Machines
THIS IS A GOOD COVER! :) I want to watch U23D. Whowantstowatchwithme? Because I'm pretty sure my mum would think it's noise.
Always Love - Nada Surf
Californication - Red Hot Chili Peppers

* * *
READ BEFORE PROCEEDING:

I'm a pretty critical person. But the nice thing about that is that regardless of what I judge on first (and most often last) sight, I don't take it against them. For example, when I see an old man wearing really high socks with red low-cut Chucks and then puruntong shorts, I just...see it. Most definitely not a sight for sore eyes, but it doesn't mean that I'm not willing to be friends with him, or atleast have a conversation with him. I don't take it against his personality or whatever. Because behind the red low-cut Chucks and high socks, I know there exists an exemplary lolo to his grandkids.

Don't ask why I know. I just do, okay?

But there are of course, exceptions that make the rule.

So Social Objections.

* * *

The following are Vicky's Social Objections. If you actually do these, well then that's your problem. Not mine. You can't please everyone, and most especially not me. But of course, exceptions almost always make the rule a rule, so there.

1. RAISED COLLARS on Polos.
Very VERY common for South people (South people being the people from Paranaque, Las Pinas and Muntinlupa). You know how this works? Your shirt's collar is raised. You get what I mean? If you don't, then skip to number 2. I won't waste time describing it, for you might be very dim. Basta it's when you put your collar up instead of down. I find it really daft and naff, actually. For short: It's NOT cool.

Exceptions:


2. SHADES AT NIGHT/IN THE MALL
Shades are used to shield your eyes from the sun. And I'm a very practical person. So add it all up. The sum? I dislike it when you wear shades when you don't particularly need to. It's not cool. So unless you're trying to hide a cockroach bite in your eye, or you're actually blind (like those men at the Rondalla ensemble on Duty Free) don't wear shades inside the mall. Or at night. OR, my dear friends, at the dark PARKING LOT. (Yes, there was a lady driver who was attempting to park with her shades on. Result? Nabunggo niya yung bulok na van sa harap niya. TWICE.)

Exceptions: Sunny malls. For example: Eastwood before sunset, Serendra before sunset, or the Corte de las Palmas area of ATC. But once you're IN the mall na talaga, please take it off. Or some people are actually cool-looking enough to pull this look off. Congratulations, if you are one of them.

3. Guy + Eyeliner = GUYLINER
I like this word. I learned it from Angeli last night. Guy liner is...well, DO THE MATH. No decent man should wear eyeliner. I think it sucks. Inggit lang kayo sa mga lalaki na mukhang may eyeliner pero wala. Those are the men that you should fall in love with. Doe-eyes. Haaaaayyyyyyy .

Exceptions: NOBODY. Not even Pete Wentz. Does he really have a line of eyeliners?

4. LEATHER PANTS.
Leather jackets, okay. The Ramones donned them(crush ko nga pala si DeeDee Ramone nung bata pa siya.Kilig.), and so did James Dean. Bad-ass look kagad. Leather couches, why not? Leather wallet, leather briefcase, leather shoes, bring em on. Leather underwear? Why not. Just don't let anyone see them. But one thing where leather doesn't work is...well pants. It looks naff and daft. Nobody should let anyone out on leather pants, not even AI's skweeshee cutie David Archuleta.

Exceptions: Motorcycle guys, only because they'll beat you up if you laugh at them leather pants. But their asses really might stink a lot. Sweaty ass + leather? Uh-oh.

5. TIGHT SHIRTS.
I don't know any dude who looks respectable in a tight shirt. Even the Fitness First Guy doesn't look good in it. In fact, he looks gay in it. If you want to show off your biceps, triceps, whatever don a wife-beater or something. Please. Anything but a shirt that's smaller than your supposed-to-be-size. You know a good alternative? White undershirts. :)) Even my dad looks a wee better in them.

Exceptions: Cristiano Ronaldo. HAHAHAHAH. He's no ordinary dude.

* * *

Yun lang. In fact, based on a small survey, a lot of people do find these things objectionable. Simply because well, they're not practical. Eyeliners on guys, shades when you don't really need them? Others are really just plain naff. The leather pants. Ohhh the leather pants.

But when these things DO apply to you, don't take it against me that you look stupid. BUT some people appear too cool to actually make me cringe (in fact, I salute them for being brave. They make the social objection look good.), so yeah. When you do uhm...apply these things to yourself, make sure that you atleast could CARRY the look. Anything looks good with confidence. Pero jologs lang kasi talaga tignan sa ibang tao.

Peace, y'all.

Listening to:
Wonderwall - Oasis

I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now.
There are so many things that I would like to say to you, but I don't know how.
I said maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me? And after all, you're my wonderwall.

Vicky, obviously, obviously loves this song.

And you don't have to ask why.

Is also Listening To:
White Lines and Red Lights - Between the Trees
Got so MANY *new* stuff from MuyMuy's iTunes. I love her. MuyMuy, by the way, is the neighbor whose laptop and house I tend to bugger a lot. Well not now, 'cause she's in Bohol. :P

When Did Your Heart Go Missing? - Rooney
Again, one of Muy's stuff. I LOVE THIS SONG. I love Rooney. You know their vocalist? Their vocalist is the guy from Princess Diaries. Yes, he's the Michael guy. Oh I LOVE this song. iConnect.

* * *
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone. I can see all the obstacles in my way. Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind. It's gonna be a bright, bright, sunshiny day.

I'm not sure about the bright, sunshiny day. I still can't see all the obstacles in my away. But the rain is gone, and the few dark clouds that had me blind have sputtered away. To nothingness, I guess. Or maybe it's raining too much, nawalan na ng heaviness yung clouds, so they aren't dark anymore.

Um, excuse me. WHAT?! Haha. Sorry.

But the point is... well it took me a LONG WHILE before I understood everything. Everything not sugar-coated, everything not blurred or softened for real. I had to be in those shoes to know how it felt like.

Haay. It just feels good to know. And to not expect, and to be clear with WHAT you want to do. Because people should do things for themselves.

* * *

I'm going to trek off to Tahanan in BF later to play football. Again. I'm taking a second shot on this. But I'm not expecting. Oh, that's what pragmatic people do. It's one of the good tools in life. To not expect in certain circumstances. It lessens the pain, and it makes the good kind of unexpected...well, great and overwhelming. Trust me on this one.

There have been one too many situations that I didn't expect...

...And MAN, those ones took my breath away. (The hyperventilating kind.)

* * *

There is something chronically wrong with me, I think. I feel disconnected from my friends right now. Well I am, give or take 2 or so people. I haven't been replying, haven't been initiating conversations.

I know they'd read this, and I know they'd understand.

Am I a good friend?

No, maybe not.

But I feel like being disconnected at this point. Just for a while. It's one of those soul-searching things that you do.

But I do love you guys, and you should know that. :-)

* * *

P.S. If you don't ready my First Portion of the post, you know the CURRENTLY doing portion, the Listening to:, Watching: or whatever part, you're missing a lot. Well, that's what I think. I find that part fun. And it's full of mini-reviews of things and stuff.

Watching?
Grey's Anatomy, Season 3 on DVD.

You have no idea how much we buggered the other people on the queue in MusicOne when we say the GA Season 3 DVD on display. I think they were mildly amused, though.

Summer loot to be posted sometime later.

OH.

Now I'm watching.
She's All That
Starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachel Leigh Cook

* * *

Hokey kokey.

I am now, once again, at my neighbor's place, buggering the hell out of her laptop. Exaggerating, of course. Sometimes, I just get off so much on the 'net, I forget what's going on with the world.

Or in this case, with the Grey's Anatomy episode that I'm watching.

I'm not really addicted, it's really just a lot of fun to watch it. Sometimes, I watch it too much I don't realize it's 3 in the morning na pala.

So much for being a morning person.

It's one of my goals, to become a morning person. Things are much easier when you're a morning person. You always wake up on the bright side of the bed, you do more things, mas maganda lang talaga ang gising pag maaga. Parang...wala. Ang fresh ng feeling. And yes, you really do get to do more things.

And I really need more time to do things.

I have to become a morning person before I start doing all my lessons and stuff.

* * *

teehee, I liked what i did with Angel's pictures.

clik here

Fortunately, some people like what i did too.

Tell me if you like it, ha. It makes my day eh. :-)

* * *

I had my first fine-dining experience last night.

I had it at Le Souflle at the Fort.

Shit man, food IS GOOD. Hahaha. I just had no idea what to order because everything was REALLY expensive, and it's not like we can't pay for it, it's just that nakakahiya lang.

'Cause my uncle (the RockStar uncle) is paying for dinner, not my mum.

Pero it's a good thing I'm pretty used to using the fork and knife ensemble instead of the fork and spoon ensemble.

It was fun, the attending dude (it's awkward to call people waiter and waitress, besides i don't think the people at posh restos really qualify as waiter or waitress. or whatever.) is REALLY REALLY nice. He was fun, and smiley and really accommodating. He wasn't snotty, or snobbish, even. All the attending people were like that, actually. Hehe.

And there were a few people.

And the place was nice. There were really GREAT paintings around the place. And they were for sale. And I wanted to buy one. Most stuff were Japanese-themed.

Too bad I had no pictures. Parang ang rude to take pictures eh.

* * *

WHAT KIND OF WEATHER ARE WE HAVING?

OH GOD!!!!

IT'S RAINING ON SUMMER?

Buti nalang wala akong activities ngayon.

Pero in the following weeks, I'll be commuting and staying out a lot.

Pero the rain is fine, I guess. At least hindi mainit, and at least i decided to stay home again.

But the rain stinx.

PFFT.

Stinx. :)

* * *

I'll be posting lots of pictures in the future. My camera and summer loot and stuff.

this is a long one full of shite. :-)
Listening to:
You and I Both - Jason Mraz
Leave Before the Lights Come On - Arctic Monkeys
All Star - Smashmouth

Which makes me remember, DUDE! Remember when we liked Sugar Ray?

Buti nalang halos pareho kami ng taste sa music.

I'm not home, I'm at:
The neighbor's place, bugging them place hahaha. No, seriously. I'm at my childhood friends' place, buggering her laptop out.

Laptops almost always seem to make me want to blog. So yeah.

What the people here are doing:
My sister and Ate Monica are setting up the RockBand drumset...yeah, we lugged it all the way to her place, which is pretty much just across the street. Margot, on the other hand, is toying with the PC. We are currently in her brother's room.

* * *

Does anyone want to learn Photoshop?

Market research. :-))

* * *

Dahil gusto ko i'share...

I love Studio 23 for airing out replays from NCAA. I don't really care much for UAAP, I don't really have anyone to look for, as opposed to NCAA.

I saw a game between San Beda and Mapua from October 2004, was it? Basta 2004 approximately 3 to 4 years ago. OINK. Too tiring to do the math of everything. :D

And THEN I saw what I was looking for.

A huge, block-faced NUMBER 9 in color red, with a white background.

Yeah, number 9. Yousif Aljamal.

GRABE ANG FREAKY NG ITSURA NIYA. It's scary. It's not like he's disgusting looking before or anything... if my estimation is right, he's about 1st year college at that time. Or whatevs. Tapos WOAH.

He really REALLY (really really really really) does look like... an old classmate.

Yeah. I'll shut up now. But it's so scary. I mean really, man. Even my sister got weirded out.

Grabe, nakakatakot. Buti nalang Monica made lipat, proclaiming "Ayoko niyan, gusto ko UAAP." (she studies at DLSU eh.)

Pero okay lang, gwapo pa din naman si Aljamal eh.

:-)) L O S E R .

* * *

Did you see Idol Gives Back last night?

Teri Hatcher should have chosen a different song.

I loved the Idols' Measuring Life in love thing. The five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes thaang. Ang gleng gleng!

Even Hanna Montana. Or the Miley girl. Nakakatuwa yung song niya. :-))

* * *

What else was I going to say?

* * *

I want want want a laptop. I swear, okay lang kahit ito na. It has the basic Vista version, so lahat pwede dito, and it's pretty looking, and it has a big screen, and it's HP, and it's black.

Yey. :-)

Pero I still want a Mac.

And I'm really excited with the prospect of having a DSLR. My mum says she has a friend who's selling a DSLR. Oink oink oink. And then she has a friend coming over who takes photos. I can ask him to teach me.

And then when my mom finally sees my expertise (NOT) maybe she'll be convinced that I really do have talent, and that I deserve a DSLR.

Grabe, maluho ako. Woy there.

* * *

I want to ago frolicking in the field again, kicking balls. Hopefully this Wednesday. My mom is itching to put me back on my spikes. And I really do miss the game.

* * *

OH I KNOW NOW WHAT I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT!

* * *

It's hard to lose weight. Especially for girls. It's hard to lose weight when you particularly don't really need to. It's hard to lose weight when you have non-existent self-control. It's hard to lose weight when everyone around you ISN'T trying to lose weight. It's hard losing weight when you were practically gulping coke, even in your mum's tummy. It's hard losing weight when you grow up eating junkfood.

But the thing is...

it's harder to lose weight when you're much older. As in 30-something old.

I have a bone structure that would put a freaking DINOSAUR to shame. I swear to God, I have the biggest bones. And well, I'm big. I really am. I'm like freaking KC Concepcion, without the pretty factor and without the height.

Okay, well maybe not KC. I'd look like tae when I sit beside her.

What's the point of this post anyway?

Wala lang, to console myself that I'm eating a lot of shit and I haven't run the treadmill, the elliptical or the StairMaster in...approximately 3 days. Eww.

Pffft. I'm just a kid, and I shouldn't even be thinking of these things. But whatever.

HEALTH IS WEALTH!

Bwaahahahahha. Ang daya. guys lose weight MUCH easier.

* * *

Grabe, I'm lucky I was born with a sense of rhythm. Some people aren't.

I mean we're doing RockBand right now, and wow. Some people are hopeless. :-))

Not really, baka maaga rin lang ako nahilig sa DrumMania kaya kaya ko. But whatebs man. :-)

* * *

I need a new book. I've just finished reading Princess Mia.

Approximate reading time: 2 days.

Well technically, it's a day, maybe even less. But I read it for two days, disregarding the hour count, so yes.

THIS IS WHAT'S WRONG WHEN YOU READ FAST.

Nakakainis. Sobrang na-savor ko nga yung book, pero ang bilis ko pa din magbasa. Word for word ko nang binabasa.

Bakit ganun.

I should start going to Book Sale. Atleast mura mga reads dun.

:-(

Anyways, the book was good. Ang galing galing galing. :-) GO JP! hahaha

Watching?
Hana Kimi. it's cute.

***

Quick quick quick post.

I don't know why I'm asking this OUT LOUD, given the fact that I should be personally asking my mom this, since she works at a multinational oil company anyways.

Don't you think them guys at Petron, Shell, Caltex and even Total can figure out a way to SQUEEZE out all the excess oil off the faces of the really oily-faced people? I mean if they could actually do that, and that they could utilize the excess oil for SAVING THE WORLD!


Diba?

De, wala lang kasing oil control film si Ate Monica. Who technically owns the place where I'm at right now. In fact, I'm using her really cool laptop. I'd probably like this laptop if my mum wouldn't allow me to get an Apple one.

like a star.
Watching?
Like A Star (Corinne Bailey Rae)'s video on YouTube.

* * *

For the record:

I don't have any opened windows besides this, YouTube's, some Tutorials, iTunes, Photoshop, and a folder for my edits.

This matters a lot to me, since I'm practicing self-restraint. I have none of that, and it's very very important in life (most especially if you're trying to lose weight).

I've resisted Multiply, Friendster, Facebook, my e-mail, even this blog. I haven't checked it out, and I won't, right after I post this entry.

* * *

Just because I love this song:


like a star


One of the comments in YouTube proclaimed...

"Who would ever hate this song?"

I agree. Who would? Even the person with the most hardcore kind of music will PROBABLY like this one. It's so soft, so sweet, so right, so beautiful, so heart-melting, even. I just find it so...beautiful. Ang gandaa. It's like a whisper in your ear, a heartfelt letter sung out. Wow.

And since imeem is pretty shitty right now, I've chosen YouTube, and I do hope you view the video. Such a pretty girl, Corinne Bailey Rae. When she sings, there's this girlish charm that she exudes. Wow. Put Your Records On palang she caught me na eh. Ang ganda ganda, parang photograph na inanimate. Galing!

And did you know that her husband recently died?

* * *

Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands,
Honour to love you

Still I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

You've got this look I can't describe,
You make me feel like I'm alive,
When everything else is au fait,
Without a doubt you're on my side,
Heaven has been away too long,
Can't find the words to write this song,
Oh...
Your love,

Still I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

Now I have come to understand,
The way it is,
It's not a secret anymore,
'cause we've been through that before,
From tonight I know that you're the only one,
I've been confused and in the dark,
Now I understand,

I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
I wonder why it is,
I wont let my guard down,
For anyone but you
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands

of couples, prince charmings and fairytales.
Listening to:
Like A Star - Corinne Bailey Rae

I LOVE THIS SONG. Grabe. It's officially my kilig song. :-)

***

Grabe naman. Their sweetness and ability to draw breaths from everyone (well, the boy part of the couple atleast) is unbearable. They make me want to slit my wrists. Nakakainis. Some people have it all. Grrrrrrr :-)) Ang cute cute cute cute cute nilang dalawa. Well I'm speaking about the boy, for the most part.

When I saw the set of pictures, I was like... WOAH.

Is this the guy that I once knew? The guy that I liked, and NOBODY else saw the reason why? (besides MADZ. o ayan na. HAHAH) Grabe, ang galing ha.

And then I was really SHIVERING when I was thinking of him. (With accompaniment, courtesy of Ms. Corinne Bailey Rae, of course) Shivering and tingling when I imagine myself being the one smiled at, being the one who's hugged, being the one who's...

...HAAAAYYYY...

It's not like I want them to break up or something. No no no NO. 'Cause even if they do...hello, para namang papatulan ako nung lalaki. Let's be honest here. And besides, they're PERFECT for each other. No one else fits the bill for him better than she does... and the same thing with the girl as well.

Pero seryoso pare, he takes my freaking BREATH AWAY. Everytime I see him, it's either INhale or EXhale. "Oh" or "Haaa". Napapatameme ako, napapatanga. Grabe.

Kinikilig i'imagine na siya boyfriend mo.

Buti nalang hindi niya binabasa tong blog na 'to, kunde kikilabutan yun.

At kung binabasa niya man (hindi ko lang alam kung pano niya gagawin yun), malamang hindi niya malalaman na siya.

At kung malaman niya man, ESMYUSKEE, DAPAT FLATTERED KA!

Pero on a more serious note, the both of them represent my "dream" couple. Alam mo yun. You know each other, you understand each other, you share the same interests...

I can actually imagine them in a scene from a fairytale. With the guy decked in old-skool Prince Charming clothes, and the girl...well, in princess, pouffy dress.

Ayan na, naiimagine ko na sila.

Beauty and the Beast?

Kidding.

* * *

I imagine the girl in a Snow White story. She eats the poisoned apple, swoons, and then the seven dwarfs (SINO kaya yung seven dwarfs???) suddenly come rushing to Prince **** (ehem, Charming).

[song number muna. Hi-Ho-Hi-Ho. pang-asar lang.]

And then the Prince comes, complete with the crown worth millions of pesos (God knows that isn't worth much in the stock exchange) and a white horse. Kind of like what donkey looked like after he...drank the super potion thing.

I imagine him galloping, slashing out branches that hinder his way to his one and true love. His face showing anger and rage. "The stupid m*th*rf*ck*n b*tch killed my babe, maan." rushes through his mind.

HAHAHAH NATATAWA AKO, I CAN ACTUALLY IMAGINE WHAT I'M SAYING, and I highly encourage that you do the same. but if you don't know who i'm talking about, edi think of another couple that you like din. (saaay, angelina and brad.)

Tapos like in a bad comedy, because he's too busy cursing in his brain, he hits a MASSIVE branch and falls to the floor.

Pero we're not in a bad comedy, we're in a fairytale, so I'll omit that part out.

He's angry, his teeth bared and smoke is coming out from his nostrils. (sorry, nakakabangag ang masyadong pagbabad sa photoshop)

He finally reaches his destination and gets out of his horse with much suave, grace and finesse. (naiimagine ko pati pag descend niya sa horse. he does this jump thing that i wouldn't even care to explain, since you won't understand it anyway.)

He brushes the dirt from his ass, slowly walking towards the coffin where his true love lay.

"KISS HER! KISS HER!" say the 7 dwarfs in their chipmunk voices. (no other way to describe small voices)

And so he kisses her.

May glass pala sa coffin.

Not funny if your imagination doesn't work, my dear.

So the dwarfs officially open the coffin...

And then he kisses Snow White aka Princess ****. The sun sets, the 7 dwarfs cheer and they all live happily ever after...


...except for the Wicked Witch, of course.

* * *

I think I might have found the Ramones jacket that I have been lusting for. I edited the background color so you could see it clearly.


from ramones.com


You have no idea how far and wide I've searched, yun pala dun ko din makikita sa main site nila. I don't care if it's for guys. Me no give shite.

I just hope and pray that it has pockets. 'Cause if it doesn't, I'd have to think twice. I'm a big pocket person.

computer talk
Listening to:
the sounds coming from the TV on which my back is turned to.

Oh.I turned my back. WWE is on JackTv. Excuse me, but eww.

***

Wow. That was scary.

I thought I accidentally wiped off my whole My Pictures folder, since I was also cleaning and organizing folders kanina, eh I emptied my Recycle Bin na. I thought I won't be able to revive them.

WOW.

Buti nalang I didn't included it when I almost-emptied the Recycle Bin.

Grabe, that was SCARY.

I mean everything is in there. My "creations", a whole schoolyear's worth of hi-res pictures...

everything.

I am seriously a massive geek, you know that?

Vicky's iTunes obsession compulsion (!)
Listening to:
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap - AC/DC

***

I cannot believe I did this.

The properly capitalized Names and Songs (Lahat dapat Ganito: Lying is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off - Panic at the Disco), I can understand.

But ACCORDING TO GENRES!??!

What has happened to me?

It was fun, though. I've Wikipedia-d all the unsure genres, and well...Most of my music consists of...Alternative Rock and Old School stuff. But Old School has subgenres too (Pop, Rock, Punk, Hard Rock) HAHAHAH

But really, this is OBSESSIVE.

How come all my songs are categorized to perfection (I have yet to be crazy enough to actually research all the songs' albums, covers and lyrics)...

...but I can't take care of the iPod itself properly?

I mean, yeah it has a case, and it's Pink and it's dirty now. Dirty Pink. Not very nice looking. I should buy a black one the next time. I saw a cute one from Clio. Black with green outline. It's nice.

AND MY EARPHONES.

Oh wow, I can't even start on the earphones.

These earphones that I have now are the SECOND of the two original iPod earphones that i got.

The first one?

I F*CK*NG LOST.

Who the hell loses earphones?

Vicky.

Well I lost them when we went to Philippine Normal University, so there. I was taking too much care of them, because when I just bought them, I put them in a small, separate bag. And now someone borrowed the iPod, and there goes the earphones...Ayun, di nabantayan.

And now I have to buy a new one. Because I FREAKING STEPPED on the left earphone. And now it's...pangit na. :-( Doesn't sound nice anymore.

Come on, Vicky. COME ON. I should be a lot like Chiara. 7 words I never thought that would escape my mouth. Or my mind. Or technically, my fingertips. But really, that girl has a lot of things to teach about taking care of things, no matter how expensive or inexpensive they are. I mean the moment she bought a new phone, she instantly bought a new case for it. And then a new crystal case everytime she broke the one that she has. Her Nintendo DS is in mint condition, and so was her Gameboy before she sold it. And now, she's so OC about me and her PSP. She watches every move I make... "UYYY, wag masyado madiin pindot!!!"

Uh...Ok.

Back to my earphones.

Do you have ANY idea how much one is? And do you have ANY idea how much all my earphones have costed? (down to the one i bought after I ruined the proper and original earphones that came from the iPod up to the latest one) Yup, if I've taken better care of those 'phones, I would have been able to buy atleast 3 things from any random High Street store.

Dapat siguro headphones na bilhin ko. The massive ones.

Ehhhh ang hirap dalhin eh. Yeah, I like them, and they look cool, they give off the whole "I like music shut up now I'm listening I'm cool" vibe, but yeah, they're big. And expensive, if you like the high-quality ones.

I can't take bad earphones. Come on, I put these babies on my ear everyday. It's an investment (?).

So yep, off to Greenbelt I trek to buy iPod earphones.
(Mas mahal sa ATC. it's 1,500 in ATC and only 1,300 in the Apple Retail Shop thing at GB. Huhu. That's one top off Mango.)

LSS:
Touch my body nanananananna.

I just saw the Making of the Video on MTV. Making of the Videos are always, always interesting. I've been watching those things since...well I first saw them. Regardless of the video. They always make me appreciate the video more. :P

***

Okay. Let's get this straight. I will never accept your Friendster application blah blah thing so don't even bother inviting me. Yes, yes, I understand you just click and click away and you don't check the people you want to share the apps with, 'cause Friendster selects the people who don't have the apps yet...and then they send invitations to that person.

SOOO since it only takes a few clicks lang naman, kindly uncheck my name nalang, since I have got Facebook to worry about, and it takes a lot of time to click and ignore invitations. :-)

ANG DAMI KASI KAYA!!! Friendster's running on turtle-speed right now.

***

Well, so this wreaks. My sister's running the PC 24/7 (I am obviously exaggerating), I can't do much of my stuff anymore. I have numerous pending projects for many different people...and well, I can't do them. I've been editing Angel's pictures, but I've only done 3, and the ideas are coming in real slow. Although I like what I've done with her pictures.

Angeli's layout is done, but i'm not satisfied with the header, so I'm going to change it pa. It has to be perfect. After all, it IS my birthday gift to her.

I still have to get a head-start on my Mum's multiply layout (yes, she has a multiply, don't ask.) since it's supposed to be my Christmas gift to her. Obviously, matagal na 'to, but I'm putting it off anyway.

And then there's Chiara's layout.

And then people are asking me to teach them Photoshop.

Imagine, if I charged for these edits, I'd be damn rich by now.

But I won't do that, since my "clients" are surely going to run the other way. (I volunteered on editing Angel's pictures, though.)

I'm planning to charge a MINIMAL (minimalminimalminimal) fee for teaching Photoshop, and I'm sure the people who want to learn won't mind. I think. I mean come on. If they're coming over here, they're going to make use of our electricity and blah blah blah, and I'd have to feed them, so LUGI ako. I mean, we have to be business-minded here.

It makes me sound like a hypocrite when I'm on business-mind mode.

But whatevs, man. If I don't get any clients after I charge, then so be it. Who the heck gives photoshop lessons with a minimal fee?

I AM really excited though, if my friends do come over and ask me to teach them. I am quite good at teaching people, and I am quite patient with these things, so yeah.

If you want to be taught, I teach CS2. Basic stuff...and a little more on the side.

I DON'T DO VECTORS. Atleast not yet. I'm on my way.

That is, when my sister hands me the mouse and the keyboard.

***

I haven't been updating for a while since I don't...want to. Hahaha. Oh look, I have been blogging on this blog for 1 year in 15 days!

I hope I stay on track until forever. :-)

Grabe, everyone has come and everyone has gone, and I'm still here.

And I'm glad many people appreciate and enjoy what I write. And I'm glad I haven't been getting any bashes or rude comments. Maybe they're scared, 'cause I do kick ass. I really do.

*insert sweet smile*

And it feels good to do something that you never expected for other people to enjoy. Back in my old home, MissUnderstood, it has been more on how to get more hits, or how to get more comments, or how to have the most links.

And then suddenly, blogging lost all its meaning.

I wouldn't let it happen, so I moved. Here.

And then things didn't matter anymore. It didn't matter if one post didn't have any comment, it didn't matter what I listened to, it barely mattered on how updated and cool my layout looks.

My blog has evolved with me. :-)

And to be completely honest with you, I didn't expect it to be "quite" popular, I mean I've never gotten 5000 hits before. 1% of that is probably from me, refreshing and refreshing, checking if I have any wrong spellings or wrong grammars.

Yep, definitely your English nazi right here.

So anyways, yeah it's pretty cool many people read this thing, ALTHOUUUUGH I don't know EVERYBODY who does. It would be cool if you left a message and let me know that you were here. I mean come on, you could comment without having a blog (unlike in multiply), and you could even leave a tag on the tagboard if you wanted to.

And please don't sign in Anonymous, it...
a) freaks the hell out of me.
b) annoys me.
c) bugs the hell out of me.

I won't be mad at you or whatever, you know. Comments and tags make me happy. They really do.

And this thing made me realize that I really do like writing, and that I really am quite good at it. If people enjoy what they read, then I must be doing something right.

Right?

Anyways, I'm planning to revamp this blog, give it a diffent look, and a different URL that's more ME than anything else.

That is...once again, once my sister hands me the mouse and the keyboard.

***

I know I'm going to sound like a TOTAL hypocrite when I say this...

But I want to go shopping.

I mean, I still have money left from my Christmas money, plus my grandfather hasn't given me my gift yet. I'm planning to ask for money. The same worth that he gave Chiara for RockBand. para fair.

And I really need more clothes. I've been having more "oh,i have no clothes to fit my mood" episodes. So yeah. I need more options.

On another note, I need new havaianas. OOOOH, HAVS. I secretly get annoyed when people call Havaianas Havs. Wala lang, it's just me. Havaianas is so nice-sounding, why cut it off to Havs?



But seriously, it's a need. Yeah, I have many pairs already, (i have 6 pair, 2 of which I don't use, but my mother does :)) ) but they're kind of old, and thinning already. I don't even give a crap about Havaianas anymore, as long as I have one pair or whatever. Basta may masusuot. It's summer pa naman.

And on the same (foot) note, I need ballet flats. It's hard finding ballet flats for my feet, since they are seriously...massive. I like...have webbed feet or something. But I find ballet flats elegant and easy to wear and comfortable...Once I find nice ones. With flats, I always get one size higher, since...the width of my feet doesn't match its height.

And then what kind of footwear do I need.

Oh, sandals. Preferably the gladiator kind. They look good on my feet eh. I don't know, something to do with its line cutting off this and that and whatever. They make me look like my feet are proportioned. It's not like I'm getting in to the trend bandwagon, God forbid. It's just that they make my feet look GOOOOD, man! Although...the straps can't be good for my calves. Ahhh well.



Well this is fun.

What else do I need.

OOOHH Tim Yap is launching a new line of ODM watches. I was REALLY disappointed when I didn't get to buy the first version, the white one. Grabe. I mean I know Tim Yap is this and that and there are all sorts of things running on the mill about him, but his watches are great. And I need a decent updated watch, and a decent classic watch. But I can always borrow a decent classic watch from my mum, so there.


Oh, I need a decent, vintage, shirtdress. I'm not looking for a khaki one anymore, it makes me look like a mom, according to my visualization.

ANYONE KNOW A GOOD, DECENT VINTAGE SHOP?


Pleeeease?

Anyways, I must stop before I sound ditzy.

***

Okay people I'm signing off. Leave your comments, yeah? Heaven knows I can't resist returning them, I feel guilty when I don't. Only big blog-stars do that, since they basically have the right.

And...well I'm not a big blog-star.

Atleast not yet. =))

Australia's Next Top Model.


Hooly Moly. THAT WAS AWESOME. Wow. Australia's Next Top Model's even better than US's. I mean LOOK AT THAT! WOW! Commercial palang pamatay na eh. :))

It's like... I can't even say. Grabe ang ganda. Wow. I am AWED. Ang astig. Grabe. The creativity, the beauty the models, the THEME (go james bond hahahah). COOOOL HAHAHAHA. I super love everything. Corny nga lang medyo yung simula, but it's cool nonetheless.

Wala lang, just thought of putting it here, I just saw it in BryanBoy's blog. (I'm a fan.)

Yun lang.

won't be returning your comments, i'm on a break. :)
