Since it has been consuming most of my time and brain cells for the past month or two, why not write about it right?
WHAT WENT WRONG:
UP:
1. I picked Nursing, Public Health, Psychology and Molecular Bio & Bio-Technology..... cos I'm cool like that! :-\ :-\
2. Idiotic how I let the course I really want be my 2nd choice only.
3. I had 3 hours of sleep before the UPCAT. I tried to sleep at 9 PM but at 1:30, I still couldn't find my happy place. :(
4. I accidentally set my alarm to go wild at 4 pm, instead of 4 am. I didn't get to sleep in the car either.
4. I had to combat my raging bladder and the hey-think-twice language proficiency questions at the same time.
5. I failed to just skip some of the questions that were outside the range of my knowledge and understanding.

ATENEO:
1. I picked Health Sciences, Management, BS Psychology and Political Science.
2. In my non-proof-read essay, I decided to write about how untalented I am.

WHAT WENT RIGHT:
UP:
1. It's a good thing the test is over.

ATENEO:
1. It's a good thing I haven't taken the test yet.

Actually if you think about it, this entry is not about college because I'm still dealing with something that's very high school: pre-college dillemma.

On a lighter, more high schoole-y note, it's my class retreat tomorrow! :) And we just had our first Search-In retreat last weekend and the LSYC retreat is just a few days away! (SLEEPOVER!) All my college friends are jealous. :)

Nicole and I have moved on from those days, thankyouverymuch. But I still know her songs by heart. And Nicole and I still look up to Hilary Duff. I know this is a question that I'm supposed to answer for myself, but I'm tagging Nicole along so the two of us can take the criticisms together.

Hilary ROCKS :))

I'm supposed to be working on my Ateneo essay. It's due in 3 days and all I have is a measly outline.

I accidentally published this question to my dead blog.
What keeps you blogging?

I used to think that if I just keep writing about my life now, I can have access to dramatic flashbacks a few years from now when I start looking back to my entries again. It's still true, and it's probably your answer to my question above.

But I still neglected this. Not that I didn't have the time or the access to this update page. I just felt like I didn't really need to write anything to make me remember my experiences. The past two months or less have been so busy, eventful, different and unforgettable.

Okay I admit it, I might regret missing out on my blogging. HAHA of course I will. That's why I am going to try to update more now.

No promises, just a little personal goal. If I miss out on it again, I'll think of a better excuse.

In my last text, I promised to write all about my RTV trip in Iligan.
Last new year, I also promised myself that I would always always always update my Starbucks planner.

It's been more than a month, and I made no written records of the days that passed so slowly and quickly at the same time.

Probably because a big part of me knows I don't need written proof to remember all the usually unusual things I've done so far.

SRCC meetings, Gossip Girl, PBB and American Idol, running out of prescribed clothes to wear for the summer review classes, spending my money on a lot of diabetic Mango Silvanas and many many more.

This doesn't feel like summer vacation though. I still have sleepless nights because of all the things I need to do the next day, but I'm gonna have to start admitting that that won't change for a while. I'm just so glad the review classes are through.

I should be sleeping right now. Good night.

Last Saturday, I decided to bake with my mom again. But this time she made me do almost everything so I know I deserve more credit from the hungry people who just stole from the jar.



If you're going to tell me they look yummy, thanks, but those aren't even cooked yet! Haha, just kidding. :)

I'm definitely joining my mom in her next trip to the baking shop. I can't wait to choose my own colorful ingredients!

I'm happy to proclaim that it was because of me that my father finally learned how to use his email account and join our clan's e-group before he turned 58 today. Happy birthday daddy cool!

... I wonder how it feels like to be two years away from a cinema discount card.

Everything is so fast paced recently. I never had the time to write about something important because the next thing I know, I have to attend to another thing already. Preparing for the elections, winning, preparing the turn-over ceremony, delivering my acceptance speech and now, finalizing SRCC 09's summer agenda. Good thing I had the time to fit in sleepovers and dates in between.

We won 1st place in our Filipino dramafest. Ms. Caldo said you were her most enthusiastic student about the same event last year, and you made your class won. 

Sabi nga nila, the good die young. :)

I've been so busy non-stop since the start of the year. And this weekend I hope to get a break at last.

Glamour and Glitz: Tonight's Dream, Tomorrow's Memory.

Cha prom really is here!

Most people do things out of obligation. Only out of obligation.

Christmas break has been very very eventful I think. I had the time to write. I was always online. But I know I still neglected this livejournal despite all that. Probably because I was never in the mood to put much effort into writing something witty or sarcastic, you know. The usual entries.

But if you insist on a brief update, read ahead. I missed four final exams because I got sick. Not sick that I couldn't come to school, just sick that I couldn't study. But of course I made it to our Christmas party. *grin* Anyway I spent more days stressing over funds for the prom. So I got more sick. But last Christmas we went to Tagaytay, just not our whole family. I had fun despite the strong wind ruining my new haircut (yes). Baby cousins are always fun to be with anyway. Other than that, I just stayed at home to rest, watch Heroes and Grey's Anatomy and search for prom dresses.

Okay you probably think that I'm a liar when I wrote that my break so far has been very very eventful. But then again.

New Year's Eve tonight. My cousins are here, but still incomplete. It's so different. My mom didn't spend all day cooking for everyone. We have no fruits, dessert, ice cream and fireworks. I'm starving, but dinner still isn't ready. I'm in a very very bad mood so I try to take my mind off things by just blogging first. Which reminds me, I still haven't claimed my laptop back after I left it at Gia's at the JG party 2 days ago.

Okay. Dinner's ready at last. But I'm still feeling blah. Hopefully the prettiness of my dress tonight will compensate for my current state.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!:)
I weird you out really good don't I.
That's me!
And that's who I'll always be.

MONTREAL (AFP) - After catching his 15-year-old smoking pot, a father sold the hard-to-get "Guitar Hero III" video game he bought his son for 90 dollars for Christmas at an online auction, fetching 9,000 dollars.

Read the whole story HERE.

Haha isn't that just annoying? Merry Christmas though :)

Who here knows what the oldest profession in the world is?

That's right. It's prostitution. This is basically the act of offering sexual services in exchange for money. It is popularly termed as the oldest profession in the world because it probably is, considering it's been around since the third century BC, or even earlier. Back then, prostitution was still a highly respectable occupation, signifying sacredness and other religious beliefs. But that situation eventually changed.

First few lines of the speech I was talking about the other day. Yes, the one I had two days to compose and memorize. Yes, the one I got a perfect score in.

PARTAYYY!!
Favorite ata ako ni Ms. Anne! :))

Can't wait for the christmas break! I can finally have a Gossip Girl and Heroes marathon.
I really have to study for the Philosophy long test now.

Who here knows what the oldest profession in the world is?

That's the first line of my persuasive speech, yes the one I learned about 3 days ago, the one I started making yesterday and the one I have to present tomorrow morning in English class!!

EEEKKK. I memorized the first paragraph already though. Haha ang galing ko no! Tatlong talata pa iha.

BTW, I had a very productive Sunday! I got stuck on my speech though, took me a couple of hours before I got to finalize it. That's why I still have to work on my other essay.

Odds time.
WILL I BE READY FOR MY SPEECH TOMORROW?
Team Yes is of course the underdog.
So the odds should be hmmm +10YES vs NO
Betting is now open. No overloads. Just your premonitions.

I think I'm a boy now. Good bye.

Well. I really looked forward to the Fontana trip with my friends this weekend but I wasn't able to join because (1) the recent Makati coup got everyone startled (2) I thought that really got everyone startled, and so the trip won't push through anymore (3) and so I stopped looking forward to it the night before, when I was honestly scared of going out already.

But then the morning itselfI learned that they're on their way there, and a few of them looked for me I think.

OH WELL. Looks like my third reason was the prominent one anyway, and I realized that it could be the cause of my loneliness and regrets..

Or not :) I went to the St James Bazaar with my family yesterday, and today the friends left here with me in the most polluted part of the third world came over.

Tomorrow my "weekend" ends for I shall devote it entirely to my prostitution speech, my the-ideal-person-for-me essay and the Algebra long test.

Or I might get a new haircut.
Mani-pedi.
Make an Amazon Christmas wishlist.
Blog hop. Post pictures in Multiply.
Sleep.

We'll know the answer in a few hours. Off to bed!
