It will either be the best or the worst day of my whole life. Honestly, I'm expecting it to be the latter. Either way, it will be a milestone of sorts.
Not that I care much. As long whatever is happening now in my life passes as smoothly as I hope it would be, I'm contented.
Contented but not necessarily happy.
Genuine happiness seems to avoid me these past few weeks -- who knows, maybe even for the past months, years...
I think I've become apathetic.
( i confess... )
*throws imaginary confetti in the air*
YAY!
Anyway, moving on to the confessions part... I've been a bad girl this past week.
( find out why... )
*nervous laugh*
Shocking right?
Me, the supposedly goody-two-shoes of the group. LOL.
But I assure you starting from today, I'll be back to normal. I swear.
Anyway, it's nearly time for my next class (I started typing at 0855, it's now 0949...). I'll spill the complete details later tonight. Watch out for the entry entitled, "Complete Confessions Of The Curious Cat".
That has got to be the busiest, craziest, baddest, *insert -est adjective of choice* week that I have experienced in the whole history of my life. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to blog it in right away due to some technical errors (damn you, Internet Explorer!) and obviously, due to sheer exhaustion and stress.
So yeah, here's the gist and list of happenings that will be blogged about in the next couple of days.
Dear God, please don't let something exciting or interesting happen then because my list of things to blog about would so totally pile up. Thanks.
Okay, so lets start the list.
( 082808 (that's how I write dates, in case you don't get it.) )
Okay, so I've been addicted to playing this game called Pi Story for sometime now. It's kinda like Ragnarok Online but at the same time, it isn't. LOL. Nevermind the crappy description. Anyway, I wouldn't say that it was the best MMORPG in the net but it was okay -- save for the ocassional lags and server glitches. I'm part of this guild called FATE, headed by ADOREme. They're a bunch of crazy people but they're a whole lot of fun. Obviously, I very much fit in there. LOL.
I even made a name for myself there after a couple of days... As the guildmember who gave the most 'fatal' and 'feared' hugs aka the *deathugs*. LOL. See, I told you... CRAAAAZY.
Oh yeah, my character's name is robinchan after Nico Robin from the anime One Piece.
On to the main story, last night -- or rather, this morning at 3 am (yes, I was still up and playing at this ungodly hour but trust me, it'll be the first, and hopefully the last, time. I promise.) -- I was chatting up a storm with my guildmates when suddenly one of them, who went by the username RavenRose, told me that she whispered something to me (In game speak, a private message.). So here's the conversation in the guild chatroom:
You see, it was her birthday last Thursday. I probably gave her one of the most amusing gifts that she had that day.
Wanna know why?
It all started at photography class, I was getting something from my bag when the birthday girl called me. I looked at her and asked what she wanted. She looked up to me sweetly and said, 'Batiin mo naman ako!' ('Greet me!')
And did you know what happened next?
I gave her a weird look, then raised my hand in acknowledgement and said, 'Hi Love!'
The people around us gave me strange looks as if I was out of my mind.
Five seconds later, I realized that it was her birthday.
*facepalms*
So THAT's what she meant by greeting...
Haha, SLOW!
Really, my current streak of embarassing -- and not to mention, retarted -- moments is going to be the death of me. LOL.
Anyway, Tito Bobet and I just came back from the malla couple of minutes ago. We both had an appointment in Let's Face It, and we decided to eat out and do a bit of grocery shopping before we go home.
Fast forward on the grocery shopping. We had a bit of an argument concerning ice cream. No it wasn't that he didn't want to buy it -- he actually told me that I should have bought a bigger tub since the one that I bought was so small (about the size of my fist.)
Well, I told him that I didn't get a bigger tub since it was so expensive -- it was Haagen Daz, duh! And I only wanted to taste it even just once.
And then at the cashier, he paid with his credit card.
Aww. If I knew that beforehand, I WOULD'VE gotten the bigger tub.
So why did I hesitate again?
Oh yeah. The little cup was worth 150 bucks.
WTFudge?!
150 bucks! I can bear to imagine how much the bigger tub costs.
Damn the Germans and their oh-so-scrumptous ice cream. TT^TT

What Role Do You Play?
LOL. I couldn't think of a title that follows my typical format of 'Of Blah And Blah'... I also couldn't think of anything thing that comes in flakes besides dandruff... So hence the retarted title.
Just in case you're slow like me (at least. today I am), the flaky part came from the last line of the meme. ^^
P.S. This will be my first blog post typed in Multiply. Let's see if it cross-posts in my LJ...

Since we arrived early at Glorietta, we decided to have a late lunch at Dad's / Saisaki / Kamayan. For those who don't know this place, it's a restaurant famous for it's eat-all-you-can buffets...
And that's just what we did.
I nearly forgot about yesterday's promise of an entry. Well, now I'm here.
Midterm exams are over finally... though I cannot say that I can now rest easily. The feeling of anxiety over the exam results still lingers above my head like a little raincloud ready to pour. Damn.
Anyway, at least some parts of my current academic checklist are now done. I passed the admission test for our school publication and will be attending the orientation tomorrow, and our paper for PrintMedia -- the very one that nearly claimed my sanity yesterday -- has been finally completed and passed to our professor. Well, not exactly to him personally, but rather his pigeon hole in the faculty room, which was the next best thing.
Next part of the update... Exactly one week ago, my tito Bobet arrived here from Italy. We're really glad that he's able to go back here for a vacation on a yearly basis. Last Sunday, we took him to Tagaytay and of course, the day before that, my cousins took him on a major toy shopping spree. Well, I guess that's the benefits of having a single uncle with a lot of cash to burn. LOL. ^^
Like I said it's been only a week but I feel like a longer time has passed by. I dunno... maybe I'm just tired.
Will try to update soon.
P.S. There will be no Eyeshield21, One Piece and Naruto update on OneManga this weekend... It's because there's a holiday in Japan this week. :(
And while we're on the subject of me not knowing what to do with my life -- may it be my academic, social, past or even next life -- I just want everybody out there to know that I got a haircut last Monday.
LOL. And you thought I was going to write something life-changing.
Well, in a sense, that particular decision was life-changing. After all, I could have spent that time studying instead of attending to my materialistic needs.
Though I doubt I would have learned anything if I did otherwise. XP
Kidding aside, I've been feeling a bit concerned for myself this past week. I cannot seem to stop myself from procrastinating... Hell, I can't even force myself to do an all-out cramming session. I feel strangely calm yet completely panicked at the same time. Is that even possible? Goodness knows how I nearly banged my head into my bedroom wall in an attempt to *ahem* motivate myself into studying already. Seriously, I can summarize my feelings into one emoticon:
TT^TT
I think those would fall into the 'having split personality episodes' list. Think of it as one of those cliche scenes where a devil-me and angel-me are floating above my shoulders, doing a world war of some sort.
And did I mention that the devil-me would totally look kickass and smexy in a black gothic lolita outfit while the angel-me would look oh-so-innocent and kawaii in a white babydoll lace dress with matching ballet shoes?
*face palms*
I'm gonna go and bang my head into the wall now...
Finally, the grandparental units allowed me to bring my laptop to school!
OMG. I didn't even have a hard time convincing them...
o.0 i honestly can't believe it... LOL.
ok that's all. will do the update on my misadventures some other time.
Ja!

*RANDOM BAND MEME*
1. Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Ran
*Clio-Danae Othoneou. It's Greek therefore it's cool. And our fanbase will affectionately call us CDO. Though I just hope they'll come up with something better than that. LOL. Click here for the Wikipedia article.
2. Go to Random Quotations. The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album. If you want to do this again, you'll hit refresh to generate new quotes, because clicking the quotes link again will just give you the same quotes over and over again.
*The Subject Reveals Itself. (o.0)... The sheer awesomeness of the album title has rendered me speechless... (o.0)

3. Go to Flickr's "Explore The Last Seven Days". The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
Ditto with the album cover.~

4. Go to http://www.randomwebsite.com/. The first ten links you end up in (minus the .com’s etc.) are your 10 song titles.
*1. Neurotic Fishbowl
*2. Artist Direct
*3. The Avatars
*4. Mediumphobic
*5. Notebook Forums
*6. Retroland
*7. Sugar-Amour
*8. Montana Book Company
*9. Negativland
*10. Insomniac
I'm totally loving Neurotic Fishbowl, Mediumphobic, Retroland, Sugar-Amour, and Insomniac. Based on the titles, I can pretty much say that the band will probably be into Alternative Rock with some eccentric endeavors on the side. Mostly influenced by the '80s and '90s. Not emo. Not punk.
Damn. I can feel the rockstar vibe coming along. ^^
To hell with it. I'M TAGGING EVERYBODY! (Yeah, that means you.)
*throws confetti all around*
Now, I'll be able to understand exactly what the hell I am doing in my computer! OH JOY!
Never having done such a thing in his life, the poster was amazed to find the woman thanking him deeply for saving her from harassment. The young woman requested his address, telling him that she wanted to express her appreciation for his act, before they parted ways. The poster, upon returning home, shared his experience with other posters in the thread and was eventually nicknamed "Densha Otoko" (Train Man).
A few days later, Densha Otoko received a package from the woman: an expensive set of cups and saucers made by Hermès. Flabbergasted, the man turned to the 2channelers for advice; he was soon convinced that the tea set was too expensive to be a mere thank-you gift. Following the advice and suggestions of the other posters, Densha Otoko eventually contacted the woman.
As Densha Otoko had never been on a date before, he consistently posted updates on his situation, asking for advice on everything from restaurant choices to what clothing to wear. After an enjoyable first date, they began meeting regularly. Following the 2channelers' collective advice, he got a haircut, updated his wardrobe, and began to emerge from his shell. After several dates, his demeanor had changed for the better and this culminated a few months later in his confessing his love for her. She reciprocated, and when the 2channelers were informed, there was a mass celebration; posts began flowing in congratulating the new couple, and extravagant Shift JIS art pictures were posted. Because 2ch has an enormous impact on net culture in Japan, this story quickly spread throughout the media." -- Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia.
Since then, this story has been turned into a drama, a film, four manga (Japanese comics) adaptations, a theatrical play and a book. In fact, I've just finished reading one of the manga adaptations in OneManga.com just now and I have to say... D-A-M-N. I fully understood why it became so popular. Really guys, even if you aren't big fans of anime, manga or whatever, READ IT. Click the damn link! It's awesome. AWESOME, I TELL YOU!Though I kinda wish I was part of the actual 2channel forum back then...
GAH! I'm still a bit giddy over Densha Otoko's story... (FYI, since 2channel is an anonymous thread, the complete authenticity of the story is not yet clear... But who cares?! The story is an EPIC WIN!) *gushes*giggles*
Woot!~
Today is Bern's birthday. We had fun celebrating obviously. It all started with the surprise Teddy bear gift with matching cupcakes and balloons. After school, we headed -- where else? -- YELLOW CAB.
But instead of the usual fab 5, we became the savvy 7. It's because we now have two new members in the gang, Karla and Doodle. Well, the more the merrier. ^^
Anyway, back to YC. We ordered an 18" barbecue chicken and onion pizza with an additional Charlie Chan Chicken Pasta. Wooh. I've never felt this full since... well, the last time we ate there.
After that, we roamed around SM (the shed of some of the calories. LOL.) and did some major window shopping. LOL. As usual, JB was flooded with requests that he wear colored skinny jeans. He's our Barbie doll.
Or is it Ken doll? Tch. Whatever. LOL.
Artwork is having a T-shirt design contest again. The mechanics changed this year so I need not to buy a new shirt if I want to enter. Just pay the Php 80.00 registration fee and viola! You're in.
I have an idea for the design actually. But I'm gonna need Ninya's help.
Yosh! We can do this.
Anyway, as I was roaming around YouTube a while ago, I found a trailer for the movie be Kind Rewind starring Jack Black and Mos Def, and directed by Michel Gondry. I have actually seen this trailer a while back but it's so interesting I just had to put this in.
Be Kind Rewind Official Trailer:
Director Michel Gondry's 'Swede' Trailer: (Note: A swede is like a parody of a movie. It's a term found in the film.)
LOL at 1:07-1:20.
Ah, Michel Gondry. I find him oddly charming and attractive. Maybe it's because of his eccentric style... Or maybe because of his cute French accent... I wanna watch his movies, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep (with English subs), and Be Kind Rewind. I swear this fascination for Gondry all started when I caught a glimpse of his commercial for HP. Here it is.
"I dream a lot... But I'm not a very good sleeper." - Michel Gondry, 'Eternal Dreamer'
Brilliant.
Okay, I just accidentally pressed the enter button and I am now editing this so called "posted" entry. Strange enough, I didn't curse / blame the stupid computer for what just happened. I'm feeling a bit passive today.
I know... big shocker, isn't it?
Anyway, back to the too-lazy-to-blog-about-it part. I guess I've changed a bit. I don't feel a tad guilty if I don't update as often as I like anymore (or should I say, at the moment?).
As for my current current status, I've rediscovered an old MTV cartoon called Daria. I wouldn't exactly say that it was old old, but you know, it ran from 1997 to 2002 so, yeah... Whatever. Anyway, I remember watching this when I was a kid. Sad to say, I wasn't a fan back then (in the sense that I didn't appreciate it much due to the fact that I was a kid back then as opposed to not actually liking it...) but now after watching some episodes, I think it's cool. I'm pretty sure that my inner child would want to be just like Daria... Anyway, (recently, I've developed a habit of saying "Anyway," at the start of practically every sentence I say. I say it so much that Ninya has been keeping tabs on how many times I say it...) Anyway, back to Daria. Here's a video of the first episode. Tell me what you think.
LOL. Just kidding.
Anyway, today was my last day at work. I bawled for like, a couple of times, but mostly after school. We had a major photoshoot afterwards.
Then, Nestle, Vermont, Noralyn and I went to grab a bite at J-Ritz. I received a couple of farewell gifts from my students (and don't worry, I gave something as well.).
I've also found a new friend. Her name's Bea. She's a little older than me but we hit it off almost instantly. Kinda like me and Vanessa when I started in ILEC. Anyway, I found out that she'll be the one inheriting my room. It was kinda cool. I even joked on how the resident lunatic (me) will be replaced by yet another lunatic (Bea). LOL. In a span of a week, she's already become some sort of a big sister. Though I think it's more of a twin sister than another older sibling. *giggles*
Anyway, the lazy bug's got me so I'll just post a very detail account of the past week tomorrow ok?
Ja.
P.S. Back to school in Monday. I dunno whether to fell excited or annoyed. LOL. Well, at least I get to see the gang again. Yay!~
