Jenny met with me at McDonalds yesterday morning. Then we went straight to SM Manila to do some 'window shopping'. It was nice hanging out with her again.:) Then at the afternoon, I thought my family's going out. But we didn't. Niyaya ko nalang si Din to catch a movie. Ha! I am so impulsive! We watched 'So... Happy Together'. Here is a very stupid story: Din and I was in the line to the ticket booth. We agreed to take Cinema 11, but we wanted to enter the cinema on the start of the movie. We were already on the line(w/c was taking up forever) at 3:30 and the show started 3:30 in cinema 11! That's why we took Cinema 6 (same movie will start on 5:05. better compared to 5:45 on cimena 6). The Flick's 75 bucks Deluxe in Cinema11. So we have to pay 150 for the 2 of us. I told the cinema girl "2 cinema 6, sa baba". I was hoping she would say "150 pesos" but instead, she asked for 180! I was like, what! this woman doesn't know how to count... i mean that machine doesn't know how to count! But of course I just added the remaining 30 pesos. It turned out na it really ws 90php Deluxe, 110, i think, premium. Kasi sa susunod, tignang maigi ang presyo! Ganda ko sana, tanga naman... lolz! You know why it was 90 bucks? Aba, as we entered Cinema 6, I was a bit suprised that there was such place pala in SM Manila Cinemas! HAHA! I've been watching movies there all my life but I think I never entered Cinema 6. Napaka inosenteng bata. 90 pesos was worth it. The sits are covered with a luxurious red kutson where viewers can watch comfortably. Astig. I told nga Din that we would repeat the movie, but instead on watching it, matutulog kami! hehehe. So much for that... The movie was fun. For once, naaliw ako kay Kris Aquino! She played the role oh so well! No kidding! The story was awesome. A very funny slash sad slash good slash astig story of friendship. Watch it with a good friend. It would be better it that friend is a homosexual.:) ------- Nagkasunog nga pala sa Bustillos. A lot of shop (sari- sari stores) was destroyed. Sayang naman. There was this Chinese store there where I used to buy our groceries. Sayang talaga. My slippers' destroyed. Don't ask. So I'm supposed to buy at Bustillos. Then, nung napanood ko sa Tv na nasunog na, I was like " F***! San na 'ko bibili ng slippers ko!*smirk*" Kidding aside, sayang talaga... ----------------- Sino pa ba ang hindi pa nakakarinig ng balita? The last time I check, 66,000 had died. I was really shocked when I first found out wat had happened (the deathcount was still in 11,000 then. Thankz, Jaypee). I know this isn't a good time to say this, but I was just thinking, maybe we should still be thankful for everything. I may sound pathetic and all but, hey, magnitude 9.0 earthquake? We should be thankful it didn't hit a city, or a land for that matter. Imagine yourself in a room which is shaking magnitude 9.0! It could have been worst! Or we should be thankful that the deathcount doesn't reach a million! Or that you are still alive and still reading this post. You get my point. There are brighter sides in everything. We should still be thankful for that. What am I saying? Just thinking out loud. We could help them, by the way. Pray for them. Not the 'Aika, you are right, i will pray for them but before that, let me finish my chips, and eventually, i'll forget about whatever you were saying' kind. Seriously. Let's pray for them. ----- Humahaba na ang post ko... Gotta stop na...Happy Holidays, everyone!

wondrin' why everything seems old-fashioned? yeah... (semi) NEW LAYOUT! well, not completely .I changed the color and the picture above the entry box (pinaghirapan ko yan! hehe). That's it! maybe I just grew tired of the black and white scheme that's why I tried something else. I hope it pleases you all. Any suggestions are very much welcome (if the color hurts your eye or something). I only tested the skin in my PC that's why i really don't know how it looked like in other browsers. Inform me, ok? The 'Take out the trash... SENTIMENTAL GARBAGE' line came from 6CycleMind's song written by R. Dimaculangan(with additional lyrics by R. Marasigan). Wala lang. Supper cool song. --------- I already talked to Jenny na after a long long(did i mention long) time. I missed her do much! She asked if i could meet up with her coz she wanted to copy my notes while she was absent. Doing my job as the resident good samaritan(and her mother), I nodded ok naman coz i wanted to see her na din. Sa wakas, napanood ko na din ang Troy at The Last Samurai. Yeah, I am a self confessed movie freak but i missed these 2 awesome movies. The Christmas went well. I almost greeted everyone in my phonebook but didn't because of the fear on losing all my credits again (that happened last christmas). But i'm glad naman na there were people who greeted me back. Even the most unexpected person ( with the most unexpected message. Do you remember the guy i told you, the friendster guy with the 'ikaw na ba yan' picture? Well, he remembered me pa pala and sent me a sweet message:) I'm turning 17 in a week! Then next year I'll be 18! Parang kahapon lang, I was acting like an immature kid. Yeah, that really was yesterday. :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

i don't think I can post more often na. I've got loads of school works... hehe Just don't forget the real meaning of christmas. Try sharing. It would not hurt naman. Just think how would Jesus feels this christmas if not all people are happy within. exclude the material things. For a change, try looking for a happiness found only when you give smile to other people. That my friend, is the real meaning of christmas. Happy Birthday, Papa Jesus!!!

I oh so forgot to greet my friend Brian a hapy birthday. Nung 19. Sorry dude! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! ====== I'm thinking of changing my layout. I dunno... tinatamad pa ako. Este, i've got loads of school works and i don't know kung masisingit ko. Bearable pa naman ang layout ah! ====== I'm working on my "Things I wanted to do before I die" list. Hehe. Wala lang. Maybe I just woke up this morning thinking about death. Weird! I think there's nothing wrong naman thinking about death. :) ====== Another cheesy slasy mushy slasy boy-band like post. Got it from friendster. matamaan kayo Hardest things in Love: 1. flashing your smile to someone u don't want to see 2. bringing back the feeling u've learned to forget 3. showing that u care (without being misinterpreted by others...) 4. finding a way to mend a broken heart 5. learning that u've been used by someone u truly love. 6. saying "i love you" when you mean it and when you don't 7. letting go of a person u've just learned to love 8. realizing that u love somebody u've just taken for granted 9. realizing that u love the person u've just broken up with 10. waiting for promises you know she or he'll never keep 11. saying ur love for someone who loves somebody else 12. reminiscing the good times u shared together 13. shielding ur heart to love somebody (lalo na f di tlaga pede) 14. trying to hide what u really feel 15. having a commitment w/ someone that u know would not last 16. trying to hide the tears that involuntarily fall from ur eyes 17. sharing the one u love w/ someone else 18. loving a person too much. (ano ba mas masakit...loving someone who can't love you or having someone that loves you so much yet you can not love him/her the way he/she does to you?) 19. giving up someone u never thought of giving up (kung sino pa ayaw mo mag-give-up sayo siya pa mauuna) 20. falling in love for the first time 21. loving someone you haven't seen 22. having the right love at the wrong time 23. exerting effort to make the relationship last or work 24. not being appreciated when u know u've given ur best 25. taking the risk to fall in love again 26. hiding ur relationship from someone else 27. controlling ur feelings to avoid hurting a friend (what if mahrap tlaga icontrol?) 28. choosing between 2 persons whom u really love 29. finding out that u can never have the person u just let go of back 30. seeing the person u love with someone else 31. Learning that the person who claimed to have loved you so much never really cared 32. seeing the one you love fall for someone else 33. falling for your best friend and knowing that things can never be the same again 34. learning to trust after you have been burned <<>37. falling and knowing that it can never be 38. not being able to love the person who truly cares for you 39. saying that you can never love a person the way he loves you 40. hearing that he can never love you the way that you love him 41. saying that you are over someone you still love 42. being friends again and learning to let go of each other coz you both know it is better that way 43. convincing oneself that you are not in love when you know that you are 44. having to let go because you know that he deserves someone else 45. trying not to remember how perfect everything used to be Loving involves two phases. The first intuitive one is loving the person because of who he/she is. The second nobler one is loving the person despite of who he/she is not. The first one sparks love. The second one makes it last.

Simbang Gabi #1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, Paskuhan, And a lot more... It's been a long long time since i last blogged. Let's just say that I was pretty busy.Hehe. Paskuhan Haha! Ang saya! The parade was fuN! Cheering for AB and all. hehe. I had to admit that CFAD's 'float' was amazing. You can't blame them, they have the most artistic hands in UST (even though not all. Hehe. hindi ako papayag!). And I saw kuya Rj. Visit the Pix ( photos by jaypee). Haha! hindi halatang sabik ako sa camera!:) Simbang Gabi's So far, i have completed the simbang gabi. I am attending the 9pm mass at St. Anthony. But the 4th was different. Wala akong kasama! I left home at extactly 9 and the mass has already started. So, I took a left turn and attended the mass at Loreto instead. It was pretty cool pala attending the mass all by yourself. hehe Another thing, Bonn and I attended NS Mass today(5th). I was frustrated to found out na there are no more friday masses in my former school (1st friday nalang, minsan nga, wala pa, quoted a former schoolmate, currently in her senior year). I miss those days wherein we were literally in 'panic' while arranging the line up for friday masses. Sayang. I commend naman the senior chorales. Astig, they remain loyal even though konti nalang sila... Stranger in my Room. I woke up today feeling oh so alright. Then, out of nowhere, my mother uttered " aika, linisin mo yung kwarto mo, me matutulog dun" " huh? sino" i answered, i mean asked " ung anak ni blahblahblah" " huh? bakit dito?" " kasi blahblahblahblah" " ilan sila?" " 2" " dalawa? di kami magkakasya dun!" " kasya yun. dalawa sa kama, isa sa pullout." " *in my head* WTF! ano 'to??? patutulougin nyo ko sa pullout ng sarili kong kwarto?" Ok. Filipino hospitality is still alive in our household, but LETTING SOMEONE I LITERALLY I DON'T KNOW TO SLEEP IN MY PRECIOUS BEDROOM IS JUST WAY TOO MUCH! Not being cruel, but my room is the only private place I have. It's my only sanctuary (besides this blog, of course). I am so proud to say that there were only 3 people who slept in my room. My bestfriend (galing kaming Mayrics, at malayo uuwian nya, so sa bahay muna sya), my cousin and I. These are the people I entrusted my life to, as well as my room. But strangers?f***! I don't even want my sister entering my room without permission, tapos TWO complete strangers?! Straight to the point, i really don't trust them. Trust God, but lock your houses. What if some of my oh so precious stuff will suddenly evaporate (you know what i ment). we never know what could happen. AND THAT IS MY ROOM! Argh. They didn't ask me if i agree at the 1st place. Argh talaga. Hindi manlang na realize kung saan ako matutulog ngayon. HINDI KASYA ANG 3 TAO SA KWARTO KO. HINDI NILA ALAM YUN. AKO LANG ANG NAKAKAALAM NUN KASI KWARTO KO YUN!!! Xchange guess what Vangge gave me for christmas? A HARRY POTTER booK! Thankz Vanggs!!!

Fernando Poe Jr. met with our Creator in Heaven 12:02am (Inq said 12:15. Either ways, 12 something). FPJ has been my father's idol ever since I can remember. Kaya it's sad na naabutan nya ang pagpanaw ng kanyang idolo. o well, that's life. He's just one of the people who passed away today. ------ We just had our practical exam in PE. We recieved a group grade of 1.25. Thank God. I was pretty nervous back then coz i don't know what would be the outcome for that presentation. Akala ko, magkakalat kami! It turned out so well. :) ------ Kilala ko na nakabunot sa akin sa exchange gifts. I was kinda suprised na inamin nya. Haha! Sweet Gal :) ------ There would be no fireworks sa Paskuhan '04. That's final. The display costs pala 2Millionphp. The University just donated it to the less fortunate. Ok. I'll be having a merry christmas anyways, might as well share it. I'm so excited for that display pa naman. Alam nyo bang kahit di pa ako estudyante sa uste, tuwangtuwa na ako dyan ... living close enough in the university is really a bonus. ----- It was around 5:15 pm (and medyo madilim na). While we were waiting for Sir Neil, I was trying to dropcall someone. Here's a reality-based conversation. And reality really hit me. Ako: ay! nakakaasar naman 'tong Sun Cellular na 'to! Di ako makatawag! Rea: kasi nga, wala nang SUN! Ako: OO nga ano! Err. That's what I hate most about Sun. Nag nenetwork busy tuwing gabi! argh! ----- I was 'cleaning' my friendster account a couple of minutes ago( read: binubura ko sa friends list and di ko kilala). There was this guy. His name's pretty familiar(in fact, it is familiar and common). But instead of a familiar face, in the pix was a really really really(did i say really?) cute guy. Well, he is not cute - cute. The smile was pretty unique ... and cute. I clicked on the name to find out who the guy was ( common nga yung name nya. I have a classmate and a friend of the same name kasi). And REALLY shocked to know that I knew the guy! I was like 'taena, bat ang gwapo mo ngayon!'. The dude was a friend of a friend. We were introduced a couple of years ago, and eventually he became my kadaldalan. Sorry, personality buffs. Although he has the talent(a LOT of it) and the ehem... charm, He doesn't have the personality a woman would want for a man. Medyo maarte kasi sya na mayabang. Maybe that's the reason why it never worked out between the 2 of us. NYEK. I am a free spirited type. Medyo maarte at maselan sya. HAHA!

In our Lit Class last Thursday, we listened to this song. One from Gary Granada(edited. thankz, Toni :). Really cool. Lakas ng patama! thnkz kay trish para sa lyrics:) +SARANGGOLA SA ULAN + naririnig ko pa ang tawa't hagikhik ng una kong sinta at kalarong paslit at ang sabi ng matatanda siya ay maalwan, ako'y dukha di raw kami bagay at kayraming dahilan ngunit si bakekay ay walang pakialam sa aming kamusmusan kayraming palaisipan ngunit tatlong bagay ang aking natutunan ang pag-asa'y walang hanggan ang pag-ibig ay walang hadlang at lilipad ang saranggola sa ulan at kung ang pagsinta ay di man nagtagal ang mas mahalaga natutong magmahal umibig nang walang panghihinayang kahit malamang na masaktan kanina lang, sa aking tabi'y may aleng lumiko at sa pagmamadali, nasagi ang aking puso eto na naman ako sa aking kabaliwan na sinasabi nga nilang suntok sa buwan ngunit hindi hihindian ng tulad kong natuto nang magpalipad ng saranggola sa ulan gaya ng lagi't laging sinasabi ko o siya nawa ay siya na nga ang totoo eto na naman ako sa aking kabaliawn na sinasabi nga nilang suntok sa buwan ngunit hindi hihindian ng tulad kong natuto nang magpalipad ng saranggola sa ulan heto ako tumatandang nakahandang panindigang ang bato sa tubig ay lulutang at lilipad ang saranggola sa ulan ====== Fiesta nga pala sa amin. Comparing it to the previous fiestas, I hate this one. So boring! I dunno... naghihirap na nga siguro talaga ang tao. April and I just went to Quiapo to buy some gifts for my friends. Nakakaasar! Ang hirap maghanap ng regalo para sa lalaki!I'm planning to give 6 of my guy friends a... oops, spoiler! hehe The gifts don't cost that much ... It's that thought that counts naman diba? hehe ====== Punta kayong Paskuhan ha!:)

2 more weeks before Xmas... Ho ho ho... Do you know what I hate most about Xmas season? The fact that I have a lot of friends and I wanted to give them special presents each but I can't coz my bucks are limited. Haha! Anyaways, a miracle happened last night. He texted me! At least I know na he is still alive. KAsi gan'to. I have 3 SIMs nga diba: a smart, a globe, and a sun. I am using the globe for download thingy and the sun for cheap emergency calls and text. I am normally using the smart sim. Last night, I inserted my Sun and was pretty shock that people are acctually texting me there. Hehe. I thought it was dale coz he promised me he'll send me some quotes. Then, nagulat ako. the number was unregistered. There was a pangungumustah and hellos. His name was at the last part and that really made me smile. Buhay pa nga talaga sya. He sent the msg 8pm and i read it 11. so i send a goodnight msg instead. He replied in the morning and... wala nako load ngayon! I have to load na 24/7. ang gastos! hehehe Simbang gabi is getting nearer! yippeee!!!!

Hay. It's 9:00 in the morning and I'm already awake! Normally, I would wake up at 11 every thursday. Vange is the culprit(haha! sisihin daw ba si Banggs!). She asked me if I like to watch AB's basketbal game and who am I to decline. That's one of my MANY chances to shout 'Bangge! Bangge' at the the front of her crush. Sadista ko talaga. haha. Anyaws, I'm so glad to go back to school again. I hope our airconditioners are already fixed. I mean, we were paying 27k+ and the aircon's broke. Or maybe I was a little exaggerating ... it's definetly the latter. :) Our group blog's already up, so try droppin by for a nonsense trip. kidding. www.fansclubnibruno.tk is the url ... for my 1jrn2 mates who are not yet a member, tag me, and I'll send you a mail on how to join. I currently have 2 members. Kaya JOIN NA! Gotta go na, Vangge is waiting. BWUHAHAHA! *evil grin* ---------- Update: The day already passed and I am so dissapointed to say that we only have 2 subjects. The Jrnsoc Tshirt and Jacket will cost me 670 bucks. Maybe I can live with that. The lights in Lover's Lane look so beautiful. No. Grand. No. Sublime! It was...wonderful. Really romantic. The gang and I was walking there after school and we were like staring blankly at the lights while walking towards the Arc of the Century. Hmm... I wonder who am i gonna hold hands with while walking through that romantic way with pretty hanging lights?.... ekk.

I was chatting with Jaypee and Ivan (formerly, Rafael was included) in a Yahoo! Chat conference or something and I learned a lot of things. I mean A LOT. HAHAHA! Madam Pres' been having a problem regarding her bloggy thingy. It's about the 'cache' stuff (I never thought that there is such thing!) . Her controversial posts are still readable. Thanks to 'concerned citizen', we fixed things earlier. Well, technicaly, we were late to solve things out. But at least, less frustration was generated. Google.com was cleared. A million more search engines to go. We were hoping for the best. Sana maayos na lahat! Damn caches! Argh... ------ I would like to greet pala my Bro-in-Law David a belated happy birthday!!!! ------ I've made an URL for this site, you guys can change your links. Maybe I just grew tired of the aikzka.tripod.com, which by the way, is not the real url. redirection din sya. Just a though. But it would still lead you here anyways, hehe:

www.LADYONCHUCK.TK

A friend yMed me a couple of hours ago. here's the not so decent conversation: SHE: aika! nagpagupit ka nanaman? ME: It's been long since nagpagupit ako ... medyo mahaba na kasi hair ko.mustah? SHE: asus ... What's up? ME: um... the cieling? Haha! old joke SHE: can't wait to see you. ano kaya itsura mo ME: tao padin. hopefully SHE: you colored your hair ulit? ME:yeah SHE: what color? ME: copper blond. SHE: tigas! magkano ME: bente. sa quiapo. harhar! bat nga ba masyado kang interesante sa buhok ko? SHE: wala lang. sabi kasi nila, pag nagpapagupit ang isang tao, something's up. not the cieling.Bago bang lovelife? ME: HAHA! nawalan ng love life!!! SHE: You mean, nagpapagupit ka pag nawawalan ka ng love life? ME: um... yeah... you could apply that to me! hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!1 SHE: I wonder, bat di ka pa kalbo ngayon? HAHAHAHA ME: darn

Noticed something? No, it's not something about the layout. Hehe. Look at your right... new pix! hehe! WHAT ELSE IS NEW? @ 2 (make that 4) Typoons has just raged through our country these past few days and undeniable, they were really devastating, destroying houses, life, business, and class plans. New Life for our country. Hopefully, people would wake up and realize how precious life is... and value it. Let's pray pala for everyone... @ 2 Blogs will be born this month. watch out for it. Hehe. @ Avenida. April and I dropped by Avenida this afternoon and it was a pretty cool trip! @ Bookstore. there was these 'unexplored' bookshop in Recto that sells bestsellers like Da Vinci Code and Harry Potter Series. Astig! @ HAIRCUT! Ngayon, halata nang nagpagupit ako!!! wahaha! -------- I'm kinda planning to build a thing called "groupBlog". It's a , well, group... blog! Calling all 1Jrn2 students who would like to be a part of these nonsense crap, comment lang kayo leaving your email addy. I'll add you up kung naayos ko na yung layout. I want it to be a space where future journalism students rule. Where we meet up and speak our minds. Marami na namang 1jrn2 bloggers so it would not be that hard. Plus, it would encourage others to blog too, which will be a good training ground for their writting whatever. I hope this thing would work out!:)

1st and formost, I would like to greet my beautiful friend ( and Madam Ivan's family doctor) JOYCE ANN SEGUI a happy birthday! ----- The Faculty of Arts and Letters celebrated its 40th Anniversary slash Alumni Homecoming(november 30) . Wala kaming pasoK! yipee! National Treasure, anyone? 9 of my blockmates and I watched National Treasure (Nicholas Cage) yesterday after our PE classes (yeah, we still have our PE). One word to describe it: Amazing. It was funny that after watchig, Vangge and Dave were fooling around and finding 'clues' sa NBS! wahaha! That reflected how they love the show. :) Any Dan Brown fan would give this flick a two thumbs up. It's like digging through those old files and going anywhere the clues will lead you. Very very cool. You have to understand that I am a complete DanBrown slash Da Vinci code slash Angels and Demons freak so I totally enjoyed the movie. Para naman sa hindi fan, you will still enjoy it anyway! MY rating: 5/5 ------- Welcome December! 24 more days before Xmas and 32 more days before I turn 17! Nyaha! Time is moving oh so fast these days! ------- The art of letting go. yeah. really cliche and cheesy. Kailangan ko ng bumitaw kesa parehas pa kaming masaktan. Really really cheesy. The biggest question: HOW? ------- Val, whatever happens, I and the rest of the gang will always be there for you. You are definetly stronger than you think you are. Smile ka lagi!:)
