I went to SM yesterday(despite the rain) and wandered around National Bookstore. After searching for an affordable fantasy/sci-fi book interesting enough to suit my attention span (plot), I've decided to check out if they already have vol6 of The Wallflower.

The manga section that was near the first cashier wasn't there anymore. I asked the saleslady where it is and she gave me directions. I walked through shelves until I've spotted it.

There was a really tall girl standing there in front of the stock. I didn't really got a good look at her since I don't stare at strangers so I assumed she was around her 20s.

When I walked closer and my eyes scanned the manga stock, I was surprised she talked to me! When I heard her voice and accent, I came to an assumption.

She must be around my age or older and she's from America.

Here's our conversation from my blurred memory.

the girl: *suddenly talked!* So you like reading those?

me: *startled* Uh.. yeah.

[pause after like 7 seconds of thought..]

She's wearing a tank top and low-waisted stretched jeans. It simply screams "teen-USA". =D

me: It's just hard when you wanna continue reading but they don't have the next one.. or that you wanna start off with something but they don't have the first one..

the girl: Which do you read?

me: The Wallflower. I'm looking for vol6. They still don't have it.

the girl: Well, they have vol7.

me: *shook my head* Actually, I've also been looking for vol1. You see, I started with vol2.

the girl: Oh.. *pointed at Guru Guru Pon-chan manga* This one's about a dog.

me: Yeah. *chuckles*

the girl: Why don't you try reading the others? I've read a lot.

me: *thinking, well if I'm rich I'd buy them all, even the ones I don't like that much* It's just that the others are not that appealing to me.

I would've considered reading Pichi Pichi Pitch if I weren’t so *ahem*. It's about a mermaid falling for this human guy. Definitely shoujo. I just don't want to be reminded of love blossoming.

As I moved to other books, the girl's mother came. She's also tall though Filipino. They talked in English and compared the cost in dollars.

My assumption turned out to be valid.

When she finally decided on 3 manga~s I think, they finally left. Manga here is cheaper. The only manga I got to buy in Barnes And Nobles (God, I miss that place so much. It feels like heaven whenever I'm there.) was 6 volumes of Cardcaptor Sakura. (I was an avid fan back then.) Each costs $9.95 and the publisher's Tokyopop. Mind you, this was 4 years ago.


Anyway, I finally decided to get Kagetora. It'll be nice to read something ninja. The art was good. The plot's fairly shoujo. It's the characters that well.. Ok, this is my point of view from someone who just read vol1. The girl Yuki is impossible. I don't think there's anyone like her nowadays. She's too thick and.. so childlike. Aside from that, she's too clumsy she can't even stand carefully. *shakes her head* It's unreal. The strong points she has are her patience and determination (hey, she's like me!). She's completely oblivious to a lot of things in life and she's a teenager for crying out loud!

And isn't it too early for a disciplined ninja to fall for a.. girl like her?

*sigh* I guess I was expecting some dark angsty scenes somewhere. Instead, I was blinded by the light of shoujo-ness. I have nothing against shoujo.. it's just that.. I miss angst plots.. the sorrowful events.. the secrets.. the dark past.. the ones that makes you think about your life and what if you're in that condition.. and such. But wait, shoujo deals about life, right? (Because girls are more dramatic and serious than guys.) Ok, I'll expect some in the future. I'll hope.

If only I could get my hands on a set of well-translated manga of Yu Yu Hakusho, Fruits Basket, Fushigi Yuugi, Naruto, Rurouni Kenshin, and GALS!, I'll be a happy otaku. =P

Anyway! Here's the synopsis for Kagetora vol1:

The young ninja Kagetora has been given a great honor to serve a renowned family of skilled martial artists. But on arrival, he's handed a challenging assignment: teach the heir to the dynasty, the charming but clumsy Yuki, the deft moves of self-defense and combat.

Yuki's inability to master the martial arts is not what makes this job so difficult for Kagetora. No, it is Yuki herself. Someday she will head her family dojo, and for a ninja like Kagetora to fall in love with his master is a betrayal of his duty, the ultimate dishonor, and strictly forbidden. Can Kagetora help Yuki overcome her ungainly nature,,. or will her be overcome by his growing feelings?

what have been going on lately

A lot of things have been going on lately that I haven't really stated here. I'll take this opportunity to post it.

Yesterday we had a quiz on Algebra. I'm a bit nervous that Dra. Giron will give us something "different" from our example notes. My guess was correct. Unfortunately for me, the given problems have decimals. (She didn't really refresh our memories on that, assuming of course that we know how to solve it despite the signs.. I mean, we should, right?)

I have nothing against decimals, actually. In the past, they're pretty decent by my book, much more than fractions. I used to wage war with fractions. It was just last night that I realized.. I dislike decimals (and subraction) more than fractions now. It got me confused solving it coz of the negative signs all over the place. I know that if the number after the decimal point is low then it is high coz it'll be closer to one. Damn confusing.

For something that used to be so easy in the past.. *sigh* Honestly, I got a headache after the quiz. My head was spinning and I kept getting nausea during Sr. Geronimo's class. My eyes were unfocused as was a bit of me. Nonetheless, I still get the discussion. The headache wore off a few minutes after I had my dinner. It must have been coz of my lack of sleep, lack of food, and the full concentration of the quiz. Great.

Sunday:
I stayed home, waiting for Mom's call. I was determined to finish more than half of a certain book. Surprisingly, I slept in the afternoon. It's my first time since school started. (Who'd thought?)

Saturday:
The officers of the P.E. club had an assembly at the Auditorium. Half of it was for the election of the main officers.

We decided to eat lunch at Gladys' house which turned out a kinda bad idea. We walked all the way to her house at Sangley. It was a 20-minute walk. You could very well imagine our trip under the sun.

The result? We were late for NSTP. The horror. I haven't been late in any of my classes before. And there was no seat for us. We had to go to each neighboring rooms to borrow a chair and then drag it all the way to our room.


I've been eating lots of chocolates lately but it seems that my system's not as simple as other people's that would bloat after a couple of intake of sweets. Damn. (I hope not to get another series of flatulence attacks. It's really painful.) I lost a lot of weight since the beginning of school what with all the stress I've been through. Some of my problems have been cleared and solved while some is still taking its toll on me.

Lack of sleep = lack of appetite = lost of weight = insecurities = distractions/ instability

Get the picture? Sleep. Recently I sleep in the morning. Why can't I sleep at night? I don't know. Even if I would lie down in bed, it's no use. My mind's wide-awake at 1:00am though my body's tired. Random thoughts fly in my head. There are just a lot of things to think about. I am really nocturnal.

Most of my pants don't fit well anymore. I have been expecting weight loss but not like this. I didn't expect lack of appetite coz I have been eating quite well during vacation. (That's saying a lot. I thought I'd progress with my eating habit.) I guess only happy people would eat with appetite.


Oh by the way, it's true that if you don't have unli, you save more energy on your cellphone battery. XD I don't buy much load anymore so I seldom text. The purpose of my cellphone recently is to wake me up in the morning and remind me that some people still remember me.

Tomorrow is the pre-lims. It's really near, dude. It's for real. Lots of cramming to do later. At least my staying up late will have something good that would come from it.

***

[added in the afternoon..]
Random stuff today..

During History, talking about Lapu-lapu..
Sr. Janabajab: "Kung buhay sya ngayon, ang nickname nya LL."
XD

During English, talking about prepositions..
Sr. Peralta: "Ok! For you I..?"
students: "..will!"
Sr. Peralta: "..will not!"

Sr. Peralta: "Use by in a sentence.. He got to school by..?"
me: *whispers* "..a parachute.. why on Earth did I think of that?"

Sr. Peralta: "If not completely quiet..?"
me: "..completely noisy..?"
XD


Toodles for now.

Special shout-out to Ma-an. Hey girl! =D

no classes, played with camera

We don't have classes today and yesterday coz of the weather. I was bored so I played with my camera this afternoon. =D

By the way, yesterday, Ellen and I watched The Nun. It was ok. (Surprisingly, I didn't get that scared. Asian horror films make me shiver more for some reason. I think it's coz of the physical feature.) There was a time when Ellen really screamed. It was so funny, we kept laughing about it. The ending bothers me a bit though. Hmm.. But it was fun. We decided to hang-out at SM when we found out there were no classes.

I'm kinda worried though about our lessons. Next week, we'll have our pre-lims and the two days without classes matters.

Hey now, let me hold you
It'll be ok
Coz I will love you
Till they take my heart away

Hey now, are you listening?
Can you hear me say?
Coz I will love you
Till they take my heart away

Believe in me
I'm here to stay
Coz I will love you
Till they take my heart away

~Till They Take My Heart Away; Kyla

Tomorrow's the 14th.. Oh nothing.. I just like to say that.. and remind myself. Here I go again, reminiscing. Bleh. Haha..

Damn, I have mosquito bites.

I miss us...

I miss the way he laughs at my corny jokes and my crazy antics. I miss the way he looks at me, the fondness I see from them. I miss being with him almost everyday. I guess I couldn't do anything but miss him. That's all I can do after all.

No matter how much I want to be there for him...
No matter how much I want to spend time with him...
No matter how much I want to help him in any way I can...
No matter how much I want to stay by his side through his problems...

I can't.

***

Damn drama. Maybe I should write for soaps?

I've attended my first official, serious meeting today at noon. I didn't get to eat much in lunch coz I was so worried about being late that I ate like only 1/3 of my meal. (Yeah, it's worse than diet, heck, I don't even need dieting!) I had to print my resume at a compu cafe somewhere near school.

Anyway, the meeting went fairly well.. for a first meeting. I need to appoint students or the ones who'd like to volunteer, to dance in the Induction intermission number and then there's the abstract drawing contest. I wanna join but somehow I'm not too confident of making an abstract. I mean, the curves, the shade.. and even the textures have meanings! I won't know what my drawing abilities would represent and I'm scared to think like that. *sigh*

because of him..

Warning: I'm in a sentimental mood right now. I'm filled with random thoughts that I need to let out. I love blogging..


I think of him whenever I wear the necklace and the ring he gave me.
(Who/What else will I think of about that anyway?)

Because of him I miss watching Trigun and chick flicks.
I could only name a few of my friends who would really sit with me and watch a movie intently. Moments like this I treasure.

Because of him I miss eating at Malen's.
The food and ambiance there is great but it's the memory of dates that holds a special place in my heart. (By the way, the new Malen's is done. It is a lot bigger than the old one, not to mention more beautiful.)

Because of him I miss "swimming" in the beach and the pool.
Junior year I was so scared to go to the middle part of the pool coz it's deep there. He grabbed me and pulled me there (papansin). When I'm in tiptoe, I got so nervous (despite the fact that I'm holding onto him so I wouldn't really drown) so he released me to go back to the sides.. XD
I remember our vacation at Las Palmas with our classmates and how he got wet because of Chamie. He went home still a bit wet and I sleep during the ride, exhausted.

I miss messing up his hair and talking about guy stuff.
He gets annoyed when his hair-gelled hair gets messed up and whenever I ask him things I'm curious about guys. He smiles though annoyed.

I miss the times he annoys me, when he tugs my hair, the way he tickles my ears, and whenever he does his pa-cute smiles.
I get happy whenever I make him smile. It feels good to know that I'm the reason his day brightens. It feels good when I'm the reason he feels safe and comfortable in his state. I miss that feeling..

Because of him I miss playing solitaire and scrabble.
I remember I made him eat a small red pepper the time he lost in solitaire (3 times in a row!). I just watched the video I took of him that time which made me reminisce that led me to be dramatic and type this entry.

I think of him whenever I see straws and puzzles.
He has this certain habit that few people notice. Actually, I'm starting to do it too. No, not as a habit.. I just want to. It makes me smile! =P

I think of him whenever I see roses and teddy bears.
I still have my bouquets, though dried, and Tine-Tine. She needs a good dry-clean right about now.

I think of him whenever I eat pizza and Pocky.
He usually orders at Green Cab and one time he made a bet with me that there's Pocky at SM Bacoor. As it turned out, there was.

I think of him whenever I hear about Chefu and Tae Kwon Do.
Chefu is the first place where we dined. It surprised me a bit coz I was curious of this resto but I didn't know it's a place for.. erm.. more for oldsters. Hehe.. And Tae Kwon Do? I'm worried about his knee.

I miss the person I used to be. He gave me hope to love again in a way that I could express my feelings freely. I guess I put too much trust and expectations in him, thinking we'll always stay together and be happy, thinking that whatever problems would occur, we'll survive through it. I expected all those from him because that's what he told me. His promises made me strong and hopeful.

"I love you," he said.

"You don't have to say it, just prove it."

For some people, it's easy to say those three immortal words. Maybe because it's true, maybe because it's sure. Even if I seldom tell him that, I keep a promise in my heart. He doesn't hear it but I make him feel it.

I don't have to say, "I love you" just to prove to that person that I do. You can see it in my eyes. You can see it by the way I act. You can feel it from all the things that I do. But if it takes those words to make you know how I really feel, then just ask and I'll say it.

I know I can't force him my ideals but it would feel nice if it's that way. Right?

It's been exactly a month when he broke the bond between us. He said he did it for me, that it's for the best and he didn't want me getting hurt in our relationship.

It's so hard to live the present when you're still clinging to the past. But there's one thing I will do. It is to hope for the future as long as I have a reason to hope for.

I hope he'll be the reason.

If you're thinking I'm scared. Yes, I am.


Something important I learned: Love is not enough after all. (I used to think so.) You also need trust, hope, determination, strong-will, perseverance, honesty, and patience in a relationship. I hope to get that in the future.

Our challenge now is time. Let's hold onto the promise of tomorrow and live for the future.

Drama, drama, drama.

won, elected, rain

Yesterday turned out a fine day. I won! (Hoorah!) I'm now the Freshman Psychology Representative. Thanks to those who voted! =D I'm sure R.J would've been good too. I'll do my best (kelangan pa bang imemorize yan?).

Surprisingly, our Algebra's going easy (so far). It's supposed to inspire us but we couldn't help but think what will we study as the semester will pass. Of course it'll be easy at first but.. Well, you get what I mean. Oh well, we're in Liberal Arts, so unlike BS, we don't have much math to study (just through our freshman year) so HAHA! =P But I'm really enjoying solving Algebra. My problem will occur in the second semester coz then we'll be studying Geometry and Trigonometry, the subjects I can't comprehend much.

I was so worried about the quiz in EDUC. I didn't get to even skim through it. I thought I'll have to study like 2-3 pages of notes but when I finally decided to look through it, it's about 4-5 pages long! Damn. I rocked my brain in between periods of Guidance and Math. My friends already reviewed their notes even before Sining ng Pakikipagtalastasan (which is also why I got tensed.)

I can't understand my studying method and memory capacity now. Or maybe it's just coz I have interest in the subject. I.. I passed (actually, I was surprised I got the highest result!) with one mistake. Damn, I didn't even get the thing full! Determination and perseverance are good to have. =D I know it's bad to cram but if you can't help it then.. Heh, no choice dude. (At least you even thought of doing it!)

I recall my friend Lindsey. (Hey.) Whenever there's like a test and I asked her how much she studied, she always say the same thing, "I didn't study."

..

And she gets high results.

Sometimes I admire people who have big memory capacity coz I'm not like that. But now I realize, it does have something to do with your mood. I mean, if you were interested on the topic at hand, you wouldn't have to force yourself into concentrating on it! But when you don't like it, it gets hard to put in your head then you'll be frustrated. Some people like Lindsey don't put much effort into studying coz she has a really expandable memory unlike many of us.

I'll give a personal example. In 6th grade, when Pokemon was really famous back then, I got addicted to playing the game in Gameboy Color. If you ask me to describe a Pokemon and give their attacks, type, weakness, and description, I would give you full details (under less than a minute) and a grin. (Yeah, I was like a walking Pokedex back then.) But if you ask me something about let's say.. Filipino vocabulary words, it'll take me like 2 minutes from answering 10 of them and I'll give you a frown.

That's how it is like when you're interested in something plus effort and determination. I suppose you could force yourself to memorize something, but you'll have a hard time, wouldn't you? (You'll probably curse and throw stuff while memorizing.)

Ok enough about that. I sound like a motivator. Hehe.

In P.E. this morning, Mrs. Herrera (she's strict and I like it) asked us to make the class officers. Yes, it is strange considering the two sections combined (us and Mass Comm. majors) haven't interacted enough with each other to know each other's potential. But oh well.

The Mass Communication students are a bigger batch than us Psy students. It clearly means that the more nominations coming from their party, the higher percent they will be divided. Thus, when there's someone nominated in our department, "we win".

P.E Officers from LIA1PSY:
Vice President: Penny
Treasurer: Raymond
P.R.O: [me] (I would've voted for Vina, but I was nominated. Sorry Vi.)
Business Manager: Ellen

(We need to attend some sort of assembly next Sunday. Yeah, that means no full vacant day next week!)

During the nominations, Ate She and Gladys had some kind of fight/misunderstanding. But Ate She said they're ok now. It began when they teased Gladys on a certain position. They didn't think Gladys would react about it sensitively.

We ate lunch at McDo again. (I kept chewing straws.) As it rained, fond memories filled my thoughts. I remember walking in the rain from a dinner date at Malens. I also remember the time we were supposed to watch Ace's performance. We were cold and wet but being with each other, it makes a warm feeling. Could it be..?

I like the rain. It gets me all sentimental and lonely but there's something about it that makes me feel good reminiscing.

Besides, we need a break from the hot summer days. =D


I was listening to Jesse McCartney's songs earlier: She's No You and Beautiful Soul. *sigh* It'll make a girl really happy if those were dedicated to her.

a successful project/report

"I could be a paper. You can write your feelings, scribble your anger, use me to absorb your tears. But don't throw me away after use coz when you feel cold, I'll burn myself just to warm you."

Isn't this touching or what? Pretty damn creative, ne? (Too bad I didn't make this though.)

I had to come to school early. I slept like 3:00am haha.. I had one piece of bread and a bit of coffee for breakfast. My stomach ached as a result from eating only a piece of bread for dinner last night and nothing else. My eyes were a bit sleepy and my thoughts are filled with work that I have to finish.

I took notes from my DNA research yesterday in an index card, just so when I black out in class, I have something to save me. I also answered some questions in the English handout. While in the bus, I read my History notes coz we have a test for today and I haven't even glanced at it!

I decided to eat lunch somewhere near school with Ellen. I headed straight to our room after waiting for so long for Ellen outside school. I found Gladys there as she was just answering the handout. She presented to me the "modified" DNA structure from yesterday and it came out quite good. It wasn't exactly that neat coz the paint she used for the DNA's backbone spread through the straws. But whatever, what matter is that it's a right replica and we worked hard (and late) for it.

Gladys and I went to the library to finish the handout and meet up with Ate She. Ellen was already there when we arrived while Raymond said he's on his way. We didn't get to finish the handout but at least we got most of the questions answered.

We were a bit late when we came to History. Luckily, Sr. Janabajab gave us a few minutes (to review) and he's not so strict. I took the opportunity to review my notes again, trying to get some memorable points for each. (Take note: Yes, I didn't get to eat lunch. Welcome to college, Mia.)

Thankfully, it went well. (I didn't know cramming would seem.. "appealing" to me coz I've been against it.) In R. English, we went to the auditorium again to finish the library.. erm.. stuff they talk about. I forgot what it's called hehe..

It's Biology that made me cheerful by the end of the day. My report was a success! The DNA structure was right (we were the only one who got it exactly). It's funny how I've been worrying about it hours ago. We got the highest grade, man! =D Ureshii desu!

My confidence is slowly getting higher as time pass by. This is good news. Hopefully my insecurities will lessen and I'll believe more in myself than before. (In reality, the people believe in my potential more than I do myself and I always have this tendency to become pessimistic about myself.) But I have more courage now to face people and express my opinion. This might be the step for being optimistic again. Recently I see the world in red and black. It was stormy or raining even if it was sunny.

But right now, it's really raining outside. =D

By the way, Raymond lent to me HP & The Order Of The Phoenix! I'll finally get to read book 5 without even buying it! Thank you! (If this is exciting, I might finish this within 3 days..) I might get addicted again. I can't wait for the next movie!

I just like to point this out: This afternoon I became aware of the fact that I use the expression, "Ayos!" often. (Is this the influence of watching MTV?)


I was chewing on my straw when I suddenly thought of him.
A few minutes later, he was appeared. Funny.

By the way, special shout-out:
Happy Birthday, Kuya Rey!

DNA model

I just came home from my group mate's house. We have a project on Biology for tomorrow. It's a DNA model. I vaguely remember how it's done from Mrs. Encarnacion's class as a sophomore. If only I could contact Andrew. *shrugs* But then again, they're not close so never mind.

Ate Jonah's sister's house is just around the corner from the school. Our last class with Sir Geronimo ended around 8:00pm so you could very well imagine just how hungry we were. Ate Sheryl had some mood swings and got kinda pissed. She said she's just hungry.

Our group consists of Ate Sheryl, May, Gladys, Kuya Norman, Ate Jonah, and yours truly. (Take note, nanlibre si Kuya Norman ng tinapay!) We ate as we worked. After a few hours, Gladys started cracking up jokes so we were all laughing so hard. We laughed at her stories, her expressions, and whatever else she comments. XD

I missed this. Reminiscing the past, I used to be a leader in Chemistry in 3rd year. Whenever there's a project, I always call for group meetings on weekends. Out of like 10 members, only 4 usually present: Kit, PJ, Arlo, and me. The rest of my group mates pitch in for the money used in materials or they do the reporting. We were a few but we became close coz of that. It was always fun doing projects at Kit's house.

This is the first time that every subject for the day (tomorrow), we have homework. For History, there's a quiz. For R. English, we have handouts to answer. For Biology, it's the DNA model that I'll have to report. For Biology Lab, we need to bring leaves again- of which I don't have. Damn.

Well, we didn't actually finish the thing but Gladys said she'd do something about it. I'm getting nervous for the report tomorrow. I went online to get more info about DNA but I couldn't resist the urge to make an entry.

I wonder when I'll get to sleep.. 2:00am, 3:00am maybe? Oh well, as long as I can function in class hours. (I'll need enough caffeine and sugar- it's an excuse to drink coffee, dude.)

"Do unto others what you would not want others to do unto to you."
~Confucious
Such a wise man, gotta love his teachings. They make so much sense.

By the way, The New Testament of the Bible seems.. educational. (Yes, I just realized that this afternoon coz I never really read a lot in The New Testament and I've stopped reading The Old T. years ago.) I like to read philosophical stuff. I think I'll do a bit of light reading. =)

damn flirts

[entry edited]
I absolutely despise flirts.
It's a freakin' bad experience.
I hope it'll never happen to me again.
It's freakin' insulting.
They didn't even acknowledged I'm there.
Where's the respect in that?
I pretended not to see.

*was encouraged by friends to do the right thing*
I'm new at this.

By the way, it's fun firing at toy ducks especially if you win prizes. Imagine you're pissed at someone and you aim the gun at them and then fire away. Imagine all your anger in that single (pelet) bullet, released. When you see the thing fall, victory is yours.

If you love someone, show it. It will be sweeter than telling it. But you don't love that person anymore, say it. It will be better than showing it, right?

Hey guys, thanks for pointing out the wrong. It's funny how I don't realize that the situation's already bad until someone tells me it is. But then again, I have self-control. I'm thankful for that. I'm a bit calmed down now. *sigh* Well, I should be, right? Daijoubu. I can still hold on.

quiz on ReEd, meeting of Psy Org, no teachers, scary stories

Today we had a quiz on ReEd. I went to school an hour early to study in the classroom. There was no class when I got there, odd. There should be a class around 1:00pm and then we're next. *shrugs* Oh whatever. Anyway, it seems like I enjoy the adrenaline of cramming to the last minute. But then again, I already studied last week so.. Heh..

Out of 30-item quiz, I'm stupid enough to get one mistake. Ok, well, it wasn't really that stupid actually, it's just that I didn't get to write that one on my notes so I didn't remember it. (Yeah, it's pretty much a shocker, I mean, I never had incomplete notes before. *sigh*)

Anyway, moving on. After ReEd, we attended the assembly of The Sebastinian Psychological Association. There were discussions about the election of officers. Yours truly is running for First Year Representative (Did I mention that already?). Basically what the position will do is announce meetings and do whatever the bosses need you to do.

I sure do hope that I'll win coz I really wanna be an active participant. Yes, I'm trying to change myself from a shy student to an active student. I wanna be in an org, I wanna make a difference. I wanna achieve change in people. I wanna take over the whole campus, then the world, and after that, the whole universe! Bwahaha! *ahem* Ok, that was exaggeration of course. Just mind the first and second one I said.

Oddly enough, after that we didn't have any more classes. The teachers didn't even go to our rooms. Maybe they were informed of the meeting but.. it ended like 5:15pm! So where's Dra. Giron (6:00) and Sir Geronimo (7:00)? Sir was teaching AB MC in the other room and May saw him. Some said that he dismissed the class early and then went outside. Why didn't he at least go to our room and inform us that he's not gonna be teaching? It's not like him.. Hmm.. Maybe it was some sort of emergency? But he could have someone tell us, right? *sigh* I worry too much.

How did we spend more than two hours of vacant time? Well, Raymond (the birthday boy), May, and I talked about Harry Potter book 5 and 6 coz I haven't read them both. Raymond said he'd let me borrow book 5. I'm getting excited now.

When we were waiting for Sir G., Ate Penny started telling us horror stories. Ellen and Gladys joined in. (Janina was texting away, bored.) Gladys actually tried to scare us, opening the door and hiding. It was really dark outside and we waited till it was like 7:45. I guess the girls enjoy telling scary stories especially when the mood was like that. I sure wasn't enjoying. But it was a nice bonding moment for us. Much like the one we had last Saturday at McDo.

La la.. laaa.. Wet, salty rice.. Eew.. haha being emotional makes me laugh dryly afterwards.. Let it all out.. laaah..

You know what you guys? Simple things in life makes it a little bit more enjoyable to live (or have a reason for living).. like annoying May..

May: "Pag ako napikon.."
me: "Ok, I'll wait."

talking about Harry Potter..

me: "Talaga? Dead na si Sirius Black? Nuuu! Pano na si Harry?"
May: "Eh la magagawa, ganun na eh!"
me: *not listening* "Hindi ito maaareee!"

and of course, knowing that you guys care.
Ate She: "Mia.. did you sleep?"
me: "Um.. yeah. Doesn't it look like I did?"

.....

me: "I did sleep! I swear!"

It makes me want a new camera really bad. What's the relation to this? I don't know either.

Why?

Why, do you always do this to me?
Why, couldn't you just see through me?
How come, you act like this
Like you just don't care at all
Do you expect me to believe I was the only one to fall?

I can feel I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel I can feel you baby, why

It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you

Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why

Hey, listen to what we're not saying
Let's play, a different game than what we're playing
Try, to look at me and really see my heart
Do you expect me to believe I'm gonna let us fall apart?

I can feel I can feel you near me, even when you're far away
I can feel I can feel you baby, why

It's not supposed to feel this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you

Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why

So go and think about whatever you need to think about
Go ahead and dream about whatever you need to dream about
And come back to me when you know just how you feel, you feel

I can feel I can feel you near me, even though you're far away
I can feel I can feel you baby, why

It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you
Tell me
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you
More and more each day
It's not supposed to hurt this way
I need you, I need you, I need you

Tell me, are you and me still together?
Tell me, do you think we could last forever?
Tell me, why

~Why; Avril Lavigne

I need answers..
Do you still remember..?
You promised me no matter what happens, I'm the one you love..
Please keep your promise coz I'll be waiting..

... Quotes

Love is not just about finding someone you can live with, but finding someone you can't live without.

It is not about finding someone perfect to love, but loving the imperfect person perfectly.

Destiny is an excuse of letting things happen than making it happen.

[03.07.09]
I chose this layout since I can't "fix" the codes on the other one. I simply couldn't find out what's wrong with it (the text of the entries cannot be seen). I love this current layout. It gives me that artistic feel and sort of brooding. I thought it's perfect because my entries here are, for the most part, pretty depressing. Being heart-broken makes you poetic. I wanted to read my entries again to see how much I've grown. Getting hurt is part of life. (I think through the years of suffering, I've finally become more mature.) Being stronger afterwards is what matters afterall. =)
