Christmas Eve. :) I do love the 24th of December. It's the anticipation of waiting for the clock to strike 12 and greet everyone a Merry Christmas!
We would always celebrate Christmas at home and have a good scrumptious dinner with my family. Plus, the all-day marathon of Christmas shows and a whole hour listening to compiled Christmas songs from different ages.
It's a bright day ahead! For now, let's wait and make this day as exciting as we can make it! :)
Cuidate everyone!
I AM OFFICIALLY ON MY CHRISTMAS BREAK.
You have no idea how good it feels. Last year, the three weeks of school between the semestral break and Christmas break was just nothing. Compared to this year, the three weeks just felt like it's in a black hole - it never seems to reach the end. Yet, it has finally come. After my biology laboratory, I gave out a big sigh of relief that for once, I can stay up all night doing absolutely nothing and surfing the net.
Besides getting some well deserved R&R, I can finally start updating again. Guilty, I have been very biased with Multiply because it's the only constant site I update. You see, it's hard to keep myself in update mode because I have so many affiliations in the world wide web. If you probably google me, you'd see that I am as much of a public figure virtually compared to reality. So, I have failed to update my blog regularly due to time constraints plus, Flickr, Facebook, Gmail, YM, Skype, iTunes Store, RSS feeds, Shop Style and so many more. I can never be bored when I have my laptop in front of me. There's just so many things I can do!
Enough of my virtual self, it's time to move to my real life. This week is already jam packed with plans. Christmas parties here and there, I don't even know if I can go to all of them. There's a lantern parade in UP tomorrow and I am betting it's going to be a big show because it's our 100 years anyway. So hopefully, it'll be better than last year. :)
And the most obvious one of all is probably ... Christmas shopping. I haven't done any shopping but I am hoping I will be able to do so. Plus, have the budget to fit all the Christmas presents I want to buy. :) Good luck with that! :D
I will update again soon. For now, breathe the smell of freedom with me. Isn't it so refreshing? :)
Cuidate everyone!
I just wrote an entry on my diary.
And an entry on my diary = MAJOR ALERT for someone like me lately who doesn't get the time to write on my personal haven. But, I just needed to.
You know, I think I am bipolar. I choose to deny it but sometimes my body has this tendency to all of a sudden have mood swings that are unmanageable. Somehow, the only way I could toughen up is to start venting on my friends. More or less, it helps but the aching feeling stays in me that one second I am so happy and then the next, I have tears falling down my face. Maybe I am going crazy? Hah. I surely hope not. I already have enough biology terms in my head to fit myself in an asylum so I don't need more emotional stress. Unfortunately, I am a magnet for drama and emotional bad luck.
I would be tremendously happy if I could just let go of all this. If I could just switch into robot mode when all the hard pain comes. BUT I CANT. Live it or lose it right?
Honestly, I actually enjoy doing this. Being alone, writing down a blog. Who knew that someone like me would rather be alone than doing too many vigorous things at the same time? Well, I actually love having alone time. But hopefully I wouldn't love it to the point that I would rather be alone.
I can't really say so much more, I don't want to start getting emo. I just missed blogging and I know the blogging world missed my rants. I am getting too much multiply on my genes. It's crazy. I still love Vox. It keeps me private and personal. :)
Cuidate everyone!
I had forgotten how tremendously Harry Potter has affected me. After finishing Book 7 once again which I haven't read for sometime now, I was again in tears and joy. I can't even expressed how light-hearted and reminiscent I felt after reading the last few pages. It's simply perfect. J.K Rowling will forever be a woman encased in my full-proof best-writer-of-all-time frame. Whenever I do read any Harry Potter book, it's as if I am suck into this world of magic that sometimes I am hopeful I would remain in. Who doesn't want a world with magic in it? Who cares about Voldemort anyway, he makes the whole Wizarding world more exciting if you ask me. :)
But enough about that, I remember venting about my HP after maths years ago and there's no need to rekindle it back again. I am merely stating the fact that whoever hasn't read the books is missing half of their life. (And I mean that with all heart.)
What else to talk about? Oh, ELECTION DAY in the United States! Lord knows, that whatever results will appear will totally affect the whole world! So, I am quite in the up-to-date watch for that. I have my choices and I hope my choice wins. I do wish that everyone in the US vote. Surely, almost all known hollywood celebrities have given their shared statements regarding the matter and I am no celebrity but I share common views. Everyone is as important as the candidates voting themselves. So, I hope everyone goes out of the house and votes!
Speaking of votes, I am still troubled about my subjects. Sometimes, there is a hard thing about being able to choose my own subjects. It makes me wonder if I should take this certain subject now or next semester because with the brutal course that I am in now, I can't afford to take certain subjects together that would might just cause me a 5.00. Hopefully, I will survive just like what I have been constantly doing last semester. It makes me think though, the more that I try to finish all the basic training I need, the more loose my schedule would be for next year. Hmm.
Enrollment is tomorrow so hopefully I can pre-rog the subjects I need. So far, I am excited and scared for next semester. I know what I have to do now and I haven't really slacked off this sembreak, it feels short actually compared to last year. But my brain's still intact and I hope that I don't screw up the beginning of the semester. As much as possible, I will just try to keep busy. Something's telling me that keeping myself busy will just help get through everyday; it's just easier that way. Because clearly, no one can push something that doesn't want to be pushed. Maybe someday, some things will learn to take the initiative to fix the bigger problem. Because I know I have tried, and I've been doing so for the past first semester and I just can't keep on doing it because I am just going to explode.
Cuidate everyone!
First of all, a big THANK YOU to all those who remembered. :) I was so overwhelmed yesterday with all the greetings. :)
Actually, I am more overwhelmed right now because finally, I can get some rest, some well deserved rest. :) Don't get me wrong, I am about to go drown myself again a few days from now but what matters to me is right now, this moment when I could just sit back, relax and enjoy the comforts of my cozy room. :)
Just a quick blog. I just couldn't help but express my happiness right now.
Must continue watching my series! :)
Cuidate everyone!
A quick blog before I drown myself into the world of mechanical waves and oscillations that is physics. I came home from Church just right now, and I feel so overwhelmed. Why?
1. It's the 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time and to those who know me, I absolutely love the number 27. And it so happens to be my birthday week. (Two days to go.) It's just meant to be.
2. Our priest's homily started with him praising the month of October because it's such a blessed month. So many unforgettable saints are celebrating their feasts day and even the priest said that no other month could start it like October.
3. I absolutely love the saint that falls on MY birthday. It's her feast day, two days from now. It's none other than The Lady of the Holy Rosary, Mama Mary. Couldn't I get any more blessed? Maybe that's why I have always believed that I am beautiful in so many ways. And commemorating her on my special day is even more joy. :)
4. In Sacred Heart, every first Sunday of the month, the celebrants were asked to go in front for a blessing and today is the first Sunday of the month. So, I got my share of holy water a while ago.
I know that my college-mates would console the fact that this week is HELL week for us, but it's doesn't really matter to me, because my birthday's more important. I am more important. But of course, I have got to study really hard. And hopefully I would survive the days to come.
I feel bittersweet. Lately, there's just always something in myself that feels broken, and it's not healing. Well, nothing's helping me in healing it. But thankfully I have these jolts of moments that make me forget about the abandoned pieces.
Oh God, I hope You help me survive this week.
Cuidate everyone!
Octobereans. I am one of them. Finally, October has come and I just can't wait to move on from September. The past months, I have been looking forward for the 10th month to come. I just knew in the back of my mind that it's going to be my month, besides that my birthday does fall on it, I just have this feeling that it's going to be a better season. Plus, who doesn't love the "ber" months? I know I love them, especially this.
Classes are slowly ticking away and it's bittersweet. Frankly because I don't know how to move from where I am right now. I feel stuck and all I could do right now and slowly move from one day to another. I pray that somehow, I get that peace of mind and live freely again.
It's been a slow pace but I would take it. I would rather have something that to have nothing. My heart feels like it's slowly pumping the right blood through its veins and arteries. (Finally.) Now that I have learned so much about all the world's systems, it makes me wonder what else is in store for me. Oh, I know there's definitely more. :)
I do believe that my life is not my life if there's no excitement. Somehow, things come running after me and I'm not even in a race! Unbelievable. But I like it! I enjoy the suspense and the thrill of it all. :) I've never been into Astrology but it fascinates me. I've always loved my sign, the Scales, the lovely Libra.
Well for one thing, we are frequently associated with beauty, grace and finesse. It makes us sound so exquisite huh? Our flower is a rose, our ruling planet is Venus (the ancient goddess of beauty and love), our material factor is our creativity and our most likable trait is our charm. And cross my heart, it even said that Libras are the prettiest among all Zodiacs.
I am SO not kidding.

I'm not sure if it's still in the bookstores though, I have had this book since I was a kid and it's just there, stuck in my shelf. When I'm bored, I often read it just for fun. My Zodiac makes me feel good. Haha! If you want to know yours, I can type it up, just tell me what Zodiac you want. :)
So far, I am looking forward for the month. Our COC magazine is finally out and that was a success. I have photoshoots coming up, hopefully soon, I miss the camera. :)
I'll update again real soon. It feels good to be back. :)
Cuidate everyone!
It takes a lot for me to combust. Really. So much as I admit that I am a tiny bit prone to over acting, I can hold myself pretty well. I can use so many things as outlets but most of the time, I just take it all in. Maybe that's why it's even worse when I actually do explode. Enough about that, there's too much depression in the world and mine doesn't need to be added to it. And there's still too much love in the world to lose hope anyway.
This week just went by so fast. I feel like I was just breezing through it. I forgot how much requirements I had to submit but thankfully, I was able to. Biology was fun. We were dissecting frogs and cockroaches, observing kidneys and livers, and inhaling just too much formalin. Not exactly fun but it's better than microscopy. :)
Tomorrow will be a big day. I have a photo shoot scheduled and I am frankly excited about it. I pray that it all goes well and I'll be able to make a good first time impression of styling.
I don't really have much to say. I just wanted to update a little bit. I just watched 90210 where my new celebrity crush, Ethan, is absolutely adorable and also Project Runway.
Cuidate Everyone!
You know what I love?
I love it when the sun rises in the morning, where it's still peaking through the horizon. There would be different shades of orange, pink, purple and blue around it that I absolutely adore. I am enamored by the beauty of it all and what makes it even more beautiful is the fact that it's naturally happening - that no man-made hullahbaloo is making it appear. Whenever I look out the window, just like what I did a few minutes before writing this blog, I would stop, look and smile and there goes a beautiful morning for me.
Maybe that's why I always love the morning. I'm such a morning person to the point that at night, I feel sluggish and I get allergies and asthma attacks. I absolutely love doing the things I have to in the morning that's why studying for school, which leaves me no choice but to do during the night is such a pain for me. That reminds me, I have a Biology 11 exam later in the afternoon and I am freaking out. Don't worry, that's what happens when a Biology Major takes her major, it's nerve racking. But let's not dwell on my frustration right now, breathe in - breathe out.
However, do you know what I love more?
Twilight. The end of the day and the beginning of the night. The sky turns into this even more beautiful scene than the morning sunrise. Everyday during twilight, I go out of our terrace and watch the sunset - priceless. I'm just that kind of person, I appreciate the smallest things rather the big things. And things like the dusk and dawn make me feel happiest the most. Yeah, intangible things strike me more - I don't see it but I feel it. Feeling for me is probably the best gift that God gave a human being. You can say that I'm just the sentimental or melodramatic type but I am whole heartedly saying the truth. :)
Sometimes, I even feel like I feel too much. I do. When things are also too much of course I would react too much but whether other people will understand it or not, I am just really sensitive. My friends would even tell me how good I am with intuitions. I know when there's something wrong or when something's not right. It comes with feeling. And it comes with the years of experience that is called my life where I have practically felt everything. Believe me, I have. And I can't even imagine what comes after as I grow older. But I am looking forward to the future.
If you've read Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, there was this part where Edward told Bella, when the sun was already setting, that it was Twilight - the beginning of darkness and what's next, the night, is something that he doesn't look forward to because obviously Edward's been living in it for a century already. But that made me smile, because we both feel the same way. Not that I've been living in the night for a century now, it's just the feeling that we both want that time of the day - twilight - to last a little bit longer than it should be. :)
I guess in my dreams, they do. :)
Try looking at it, maybe you'll feel the same way I do.
Cuidate everyone! Wish me luck with my exams!
I can't believe that so much can happen in a week's time. I'm not sick anymore! Thank God! I feel a whole lot better now, emotionally, physically except my joints hurt a bit as of this moment which would be probably be caused by my hour long statuesque pose on the couch a while ago. Stupid me. :p
It's RAINING. Maybe I'm just a weirdo or something because I always get this urge to blog when it's pouring outside. Haha! Maybe, the rain and my blog have issues with one another. :)) What?! Anyway, I have a Physics Long Exam tomorrow and I still have a chapter and a half to study but I'm procrastinating again (which is bad) because of the rain! Here I go again, hopeful that classes would be suspended. But no, when I start hoping, the rain stops. So let's do some reverse psychology, "It's not going to rain tomorrow, it's not going to rain tomorrow!" Haha!
Last Friday was our Farewell Dinner @ The Venue as Candy's Council of Cool. It's devastating, I know. :( But that doesn't mean, we don't get to write anymore! Of course, we'll be contributors! :) I super missed everyone. I hope to see them again real soon.
Yesterday was my best friend's 19th birthday! We had dinner in Friday's (Even if it was a Saturday. Haha! Corny!), then went to Ascend, which was a bar near Friday's too. It was fun having girl time with my girlfriends. :)
Right now, my sister and I ordered take-out from Jollibee and my peach mango is still hot, so I'm just going to finish blogging right now so it can cool off. I think I have to start focusing now for my Physics Exam. I just wanted to update you guys a little bit.
BTW, the UST vs. UE game is very exciting. VERY exciting! :p
Cuidate everyone! :)
