hey! it's been a while since i wrote on this blog. all i do on the internet lately is reblog stuff on tumblr. it's crazy. i remember a time when i said that my tumblr account would be for posting pictures that i don't think is relevant to the purpose of this blog. and now, my tumblr has taken over my whole life. i don't mind that much though since i don't have too much to write. my life is that boring.
so the last post ended with my enrollment for college. let's continue with celebrations now because there was a lot of that going on.
MOTHER'S DAY. to celebrate this hallmark holiday, my sister and i got our mom a cake. it's just the two of us this time so we didn't get to do much. we actually celebrated it on the 8th since ate ida had to go on duty at the medical city. i also made my mom a card/poster thing that i put op on the hallway mirror so everyone would see :D
SAM'S 17TH. ahhh! sam's birthday. on the day itself, i just greeted her through text since i wouldn't be able to see her that day. the next day was where the real celebration began because we went to trinoma for the partay. so the movie we saw was nightmare on elm street (after much debate between that and miley cyrus' the last song). the movie itself wasn't scary. it was the suspense that had me covering my eyes halfway. after that we ate at taco bell. while we were waiting for the food to arrive, koko, daryll, and i snuck out saying we were headed to the bathroom while we got sam a cake at red ribbon. we just joined forces because the three of us didn't get her a birthday gift. (sorry, sam! i wanted to get her this shirt that had the word LONDON written on it in bold. the lettering was a loud neon green. but i decided against it because the style of the shirt had this wraparound thingy on it and it just didn't look good) anyway, here's what we had written on it:
Oreo Cheesecake
(i totally effed up on editing the "AND" part. the "LIVE" part also looks like it was taken under different lighting. haha. i'm too lazy to fix both.)
sam is a big star trek fan after all (the movie not the series, as i've heard her say once). when koko and i were discussing what we wanted the inscription to be, i suggested "every day you grow older, but today you get a cake". in the fashion of 500 days of summer. but it would have been too long to put on a cake so my next suggestion was "i am your father". it didn't really make sense. XD i just figured sam would appreciate it since she's also a star wars fan (she's so geeky. haha. not really). belay caight up with us and we just walked around the mall. sam showed us this adidas hoodie that had a star wars design that we're gonna get when we all come up with 500 bucks. we wanted it to be like a sisterhood of traveling pants type of thing where each one of us gets it for two months a year. i believe it was this one:
i have 500 bucks already guys! :)) let's get it!
ATE IDA'S 27TH. so after sam's party, i had to get ready for dinner out with my family to celebrate ate ida's birthday at this restaurant in tomas morato. we went to yakimix, this new teppanyaki restaurant that offers japanese and korean cuisine. i had fun cooking the food and all that. we even saw polo ravales in there with his girlfriend. is he even in showbiz anymore? my dad was really annoyed at this one guy who keeps cleaning out the lobster every time they refill it. so rude. some respect for the other people who want to eat lobster too! jeezus. i checked out the reviews on the restaurant beforehand and it was really mixed. some enjoyed themselves and promised to return while others swore it was the worst dining experience they've ever had. i liked the restaurant though and i'd recommend it. we probably won't be going back anytime soon because my mom really doesn't like to go to buffet restaurants any more.
flipping the food with the birthday girl :)
so that's it really. the rest of my days have been super boring and very routine. i was wrong you know when i said driving with my dad was the most stressful thing i've ever experienced. turns out, driving with my sister is 10x that stress. every move i make is scrutinized in a very bitchy manner. i hope she loosens up next time. i really dread having to drive with her in the car. *shudders*
13 days to go until college starts. but i heard on the news that deped is pushing the start of classes of public schools to the 15th. i wonder if that affects my school. but then again, it's CHED that has the final word on that now....i think.
a'ight. g'night. i'll try to blog more often and tumb'l less. :)

currently listening to: let me love you - alex lambert
my high school life is nearly over and i'm not sure how i feel about it.
sure, there was that sentimental moment at a restaurant after the parent's graduation where i reminisced as i was waiting for the food to arrive. but other than that, i don't think it's hit me fully. maybe that's what the graduation is for on saturday. to make sure we fully understand what we're leaving behind, what's ahead of us, what the changes will be, and what will remain the same no matter what.
i can only describe the practices as a test of patience and the ability to stay awake and to restrain the shoe-throwing tendencies. but they're fun sometimes because everyone is 'sabaw' in their own way. most people remain quiet while some (i.e. myself) start singing random songs and start annoying the hell out of people within tickling range (when i'm not asleep, that is).
i can't really believe high school is over. but i can't ignore the evidence. all the pictures that represent farewells and some good riddances. all the forms for college. all the hugs and smiles.
it's so sad.
so does this mean goodbye to this blog that i've been pouring my heart out too for most of my high school life?
no. dear blog, you're not going anywhere.

why i can't blog
Sunday, March 14, 2010 2:08 PM
to blog, you must have the need to share something because you are either very happy about it or you are so angry that exclamation points are your only friend.
i feel neither. i don't like my life right now so i don't feel like sharing any of it.
bummer, i know.
let this all be over. please.

*finished watching Pineapple Express. definitely some LOL moments. the foot-through-the-windshield bit had me laughing so hard.
*
tumblng requires so much attention. i think blogger will always be my home :))
(even though the features at tumblr are waay better)
*my dad and i were going home from the airport when we drove past a
Boy Abunda billboard.
dad: napagkamalan na akong Boy Abunda
me: Ha? Ikaw? (LMAO)
dad: (tells me how the conversation went)
man: napanood namin yung fashion show mo! galing!
dad: Ha??!!
man: ay, sorry! akala ko ikaw si Boy [Abunda]!
priceless! if you've seen my dad....Boy Abunda!... :))
*mum and sister are away. here's an excerpt from my sister's most recent
email:
"Our window seats on both flights were near the airplane wing so our view was blocked...The airline food was good though. I watched slumdog millionaire, Mommy watched HSM2."
i find it hilarious that my mom watched HSM2.
*saw
Race to Witch Mountain with my dad. my dad had this to say about the movie:
- too convenient (the plot)
- deus ex machina
- characters are stereotypes
personally, i enjoyed it. although, the guy who played Seth had one expression all throughout the movie.
*braces have come off! March 20, 2009! feeling one's teeth again after 11 months of braces was so weird. the retainers were going to be fitted later that day so we hung around greenhills 'til 4. (more on this in another post)
*we even saw a movie just to kill time, The Secret of Moonacre. sigh. it was cool. not awesome. but cool. the whole robin X maria thing was a bit annoying. too predictable.

*is it just me, or is the Promenade always filled with teenagers?
*finished reading Loser by Jerry Spinelli. think twice before you call someone a loser. nearly done with The Thief Lord by Cornelia Funke. yeah, yeah. i'm reading it just now, whatever.
i think that rounds up the past two days. ciao.

i'm too good at invading other people's privacy. tsk. i'm kinda disappointed in myself. i just can't butt out, eh? mea culpa.
tons of homework to get to. i'll do them after this blog post.
the play production i finally over. i'm super surprised that it wasn't terrible. after holding 2 useless practice sessions, we were actually able to get it together during crunch time (haha). nobody forgot their lines. i mean, they did at some point but they were able to say something similar. good job, act III! we killed it! :D
my exam results turned out well. filipino and algeb results weren't so hot though. i'm comparing my grades from the second quarter to the third. i'm not really that grade conscious but i put 'em on the same page in my homework notebook (not on purpose) so i get to do that. got 4 mistakes on the soc sci exam, just like in the last quarter. what's up with that? no improvement? got 2 points less on the religion exam. major improvement in the chem exam. damn. TLE will be bad. anyway, enough about that.
watching pineapple express. not rolling on the floor laughing yet.

damn. i just read a blog. it wasn't an ordinary blog. it actually felt more like a diary. now, i feel super guilty for reading it because the person doesn't even know that i know about her blog. the way it was written wasn't intended for an audience, as most blogs are. i mean, if you're gonna post it on the internet, you expect someone else to be reading what you wrote. i know that she told me to keep my paws off her blog but i couldn't resist. i felt challenged. i felt like she was saying "how the hell are you gonna find my blog among the millions of blogs on the internet?" i know. i'm an idiot. why would i twist her words into such a convoluted form?
anyway, what's done is done. sooooo sorry.
hey! here's some good news! no classes tomorrow. the high school department is on a PAASCU break. awesomeness. see you on the flipside.

free day
Friday, September 19, 2008 6:54 PM
i practically did nothing today. we have computer for two periods, geometry, then religion. then the rest was for the interaction. computer became stressful again. i came back to my old unit too soon.
the effin' thing is still broken so a day's work is completely wasted. i'll have to redo it on the trusty extra units in the last row. too bad there's a group work that needs to be done.
geometry was about correspondence and congruence. easy enough. seriously. during religion, we had our long quiz. it wasn't too hard. i saw the enumerations coming. i'm so glad i forced myself to study last night. i literally had it beside my pillow, waiting for me to read it. i ignored it and read Can You Keep A Secret by Sophie Kinsella. finally, the guilt ate me up and i read my blue book. thank heavens for in-your-face reminders.
had our interaction today. i thought the whole thing consisted of more class presentations than actual interaction. it's ok. i still had fun. my partner was nice enough. he wasn't as talkative as my partner last year but i still consider myself very lucky with him. mikka's partner hardly talked to her because he "
wasn't feeling well". we barely used the shutter shades. we didn't really need it. it was all just part of keeping with the theme. the snacks at the end of the interaction wasn't good, to say the least. it was mcdo but it was what it was. stale cook and a nasty burger. i don't mind. we got our money's worth :D their token to us were these bracelets. lucky mara got candies apart from the bracelet. her box was filled with all kinds of candies. :) our token to them were mini flashlights. not bad at all.
i've got the coastal clean-up tomorrow which kicks off at
5:30 AM. sigh. the things they make us do.
hey! i made a tumbleblog today. i can't believe how quick it was. the temptation to try it out was too great. take a look:
Dump Site. excuse the picture of zac efron. i just haven't seem him in a while :)
so instead of posting useless posts in here, i'm gonna do that over there. haha. i'm really making great use of my time here, eh?

tumblebogs
Sunday, September 14, 2008 3:11 PM
i just discovered tumbleblogs.
A
tumblelog (also known as a
tlog or
tumblog) is a variation of a
blog that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, tumblelogs are frequently used to share the author's creations, discoveries, or experiences while providing little or no commentary.
wikipedia
i have found that on the internet, one thing always leads to another. so i discovered that today. my intent in opening the computer was to find out if there was an easier way to solve using cramer's rule. so how did i end up searching for tumbleblogs?
dang. i don't really know. it's just one link after another.
so i woke up this morning, still suffering from the coughs. i had iced tea and banana cue for breakfast. ooh. healthy. i need to be getting back to my homework right now. 11 more numbers to go for 13-3. bleh. i also need to check the palihan notebooks. ahh. i don't really mind that one. it's part of the job.

i've been blogging at wordpress recently. the atmosphere over there is so professional and formal. my teenage self likes it here. i was really amazed by the features they offered so i went ahead and signed up. i didn't realize that i had to pay in order to edit the css. a big part of my decision to join wordpress was for the themes. so sad. but it's nice enough. and easy enough.
lately, i can't stop eating. what's wrong with me?
no matter. i already gained 2 pounds.

blog-worthy
Tuesday, April 8, 2008 1:49 PM
i nominated the
badass blog for the 2008 Candy Mag Teen Blog Awards. i think they have a very slim chance of winning because one of the criterion for winning is that the blog has to be updated fairly regularly. they won't be getting high points for that. just go to their blog for more details. i would enter my own blog but i'm a staunch supporter of the badass blog.
in other news, i will be going to the dentist later today for the assessment of my teeth. we're finally getting serious about having my teeth fixed. sheesh. it will probably take weeks for me to have braces. no need to get excited.

thriller*
Saturday, May 12, 2007 7:06 PM
*i've run out of title ideas. i'm beginning to think posts are better without them. i've always had trouble giving titles to things i write. so i'm just gonna take a leaf out of another blogger's blog and use the names of songs as titles. i'll work through fall out boy's song titles from their latest album, infinity on high.
today is may 12 which means its my sister's birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! she's in gen san right nw to visit a friend of hers who invited her over. i already called her on her cell to greet her this afternoon. she seems to be doing fine and having the time of her life. tomorrow is mother's day. the second sunday of may. i don't really have anything special for mom because i don't have the necessary funds to go all out. so i'll just have to go with the traditional yet heartwarming present...a card. i hope she likes it. haha.
i got back from puerto thursday night. it was really fun. we swam on the beach a lot, ate a lot and got to know each other better. this is addressed to my cousins. i am definitely more comfortable with them. we joke around a lot. its cool that i'm finally talking to them. and i thought kuya jay was the only one they'll ever be talking to.
we got a dvd-rom. the reason? i wanted to play sims life stories so badly. its fun but it takes up a lot of memory space. i'm really enjoying it. i have also finished the 1st and 2nd season of entourage. there's a whole lot of swearing and things that aren't exactly PG-13 but its very entertaining. i just fast forward when things get a little R-rated. i still feel terribly guilty when i watch those things and i just know that if anyone was around, they'd tell me to stop watching immediately. but the thing is, no one is around. cel is the only one i have for company and she doesn't tell me off. XD.
i'm slightly sad about the fact that fall out boy kicked off their tour tah-day. i hate the fact that other people will get to see them and i can't! stupid honda civic tour! and what's more depressing is the fact that they end the tour on july 2. my birthday! actually, because of the time difference, it will be on july 3. but who cares? i still won't get to see them. and by the time i do, i'm guessing that i will be so over them. this is insane because i know that they can come to the philippines. i know for sure that lady sovereign has a lesser chance of coming here because i don't think she's that popular with the locals. oh well. ghodda jump!

addiction
Thursday, February 15, 2007 6:37 PM
well, i'm sorry dear blog. i have so been neglecting you for these past few days. i've been online but i haven't bothered to update. the reason? i've been watching princess hours/goong on
www.youtube.com. its really bad for me but i really like it. its really funny! hehe. anyway, the title addiction is because of what sir ralph discussed with us a while ago.
cyberspace addiction. i'm apparently prone to the addiction. its freaky how people get so addicted. hehe. i'm talking. haha. i came home late today because mang anton treated us to pizza at yellow cab. it was delicious as always. poor mang anton, ate at kfc while we were spending his money on even more expensive food. it doesn't seem right that he ate at a fastfood while we ate at this high-class pizza store. we spent a thousand bucks of his money. hehe. guilty much? the second years were all very nice. ew. that sounds so wrong..in a good way of course :D
in other news, i'm very very busy! we are already presenting next week for speech! it is so nerve-wracking! we are so not prepared! with erika in the hospital, what am i to do? lord gawd, i need help! i might collapse from total exhaustion. help me! somebody save me! thankfully, tomorrow is palihan so i somewhat get a day off. :D i'll stop here, i still wanna watch goong on youtube! :D much love
p.s. sam cried. she actually cried! yesterday (feb 14) because she was so frustrated. ahh. i actually thought it was my fault. nonsense! :D

i hate this....
Wednesday, September 6, 2006 7:27 PM
well...its me...doodlesz...from doodlesz.blogspot.com. i hate that i can't open it anymore because of a typo. i hate that i wanted to upgrade it to blooger beta. i know i should have been contented with what i had. after all, i worked so hard on it. huhu. i hate this! i have been hoping that by some way or another, i can make the old blog work. but alas, i cannot! that is probably why i have all this pent up anger. this is my outlet of all my fury against the world (doesnt that sound so poetic? haha). okay, maybe this won't be so bad. i can do it over. its not like i don't have the time. i mean, i already finished all my homework. good for me, eh! so let me update you on my life. make up for the lost time. well, to begin with, we got rearranged seats last tuesday. i barely moved. i just forwarded one chair. into regina's old place. my seatmate is sunshine. she's ok and everything but not someone who i can be myself with. it's just so sad because i miss how comfortable i am, i mean was, with nikola. the bright side (is it really?) is that i am near ysabel now. i can sense daryll's jealousy but i don't bother myself with it. what else? i've got it! today at the school bus (arrival time) it was so crowded. the bus was teeming with people. i blame this all on mang anton. he shouldn't have gotten more students than his small bus can carry! i know he wants to make money but come on! you gotta know where to draw the line. speaking of bus issues, aimee is all sad again. she even cried. i don't know why but i'm gonna find out. she said this morning that she will be 1/4 absent tomorrow coz she has to do some turnover stuff for st. joseph. so that means i won't be able to see her tomorrow morning. which also means i'll have to walk alone. boo-hoo. during our guidance period today, we saw lilo and stitch because miss has nothing planned for us to do since she thought we would only be having one period. it was ok, enough.
well, that's it for now! gotta do some major editing for this blog to look as fabulous as the old one!
yay! super positive!
=) doodlesz forevah!
