Palatandaan ko sa mga kabarkada ko

Kung sakaling mawala ang mga kabarkada ko at bigla ko silang nakita muli pero unfortunately may amnesia sila, eto ang mga itatanong at hahanapin ko sa kanila para ma identify sila:

Kay Abby...

Tanong: "Abby, hindi ka ba si-CR?" (pag ang sagot niya ay 'HINDI', hindi siya si Abby)

Mga gamit na hahanapin ko: Face powder, Mosturizers, Cheesecake, More powder, Shoulder bag, Bottle of water

Behavior/s na papasinin ko: Yung pagsusungit niya, yung tawa niyang 'hehehehe', yung way nang lakad

Part/s nang katawan niya na titgnan ko: Mukha (kapag may dark spots, hindi siya si Abby)

Kay Becky...

Tanong: "Uuwi ka na?" (kapag 'HINDI' ang sagot niya, hindi siya si Becky)

Mga gamit na hahanapin ko: Leave on, Cell phone, Suklay

Behavior/s na papasinin ko: Ang panghahampas niya in response to a joke (kailangan masakit! sobrang sakit!)

Part/s nang katawan niya na titignan ko: Legs

Kay Shenny...

Tanong: "Gwapo ba si Coco Martin?" (kapag 'OO' ang sagot niya, si Shenny siya)

Mga gamit na hahanapin ko: Cell phone, Cell phone holder, Shoulder bag, Chapstick, Varsitarian

Part/s nang katawan niya na titignan ko: Hair (hehehe...uber straight!)

Mga gamit na hahanapin ko: Back pack and books

Behavior/s na papansinin ko: Ang pag ba-blush niya sa word na 'PANDA', at ang pag aaruga niya sa kanyang baby

Part/s nang katawan niya na titignan ko: Arms, Hair, Boobs (hehehe)

Ang palatandaan mo

Pano kapag nawala ka tapos nagka amnesia ka daw? Ano ang magiging palatandaan nang pamilya at mga kaibigan mo sayo? Ano ang una nilang hahanapin o tatanungin nila sayo?

It has been a tradition in my family to update each other the latest in our lives so that we'll be able to add to each other's knowledge the things that could be used as a cue in identifying who we are in case we get lost in the future. Hehehe...

Kadalasan, kami nang ate ko ang gumagawa nito. Nagtatanungan kami nang mga ginagawa namin sa kasalukuyan at nagsisilipan nang katawan (parang ang bastos noh?) para humanap nang mga magiging palatandaan namin sa isa't isa just in case may mangyari saming masama sa hinaharap.

Para sa ate ko, ang mga palatandaan niya sakin eh ang mga sumusunod:

• Yung pasta sa front teeth ko


• Yung matataba kong braso at binti (ang name nang arms ko sa kanya is "Hammy")


• Yung mga taling ko sa mukha pati yung buhay kong taling sa dibdib ko (nakakatakot, buhay siya!!!)


• Ketchup (kapag kumain ako nang ketchup at lalo na kapag sinabi kong paborito ko ang ketchup)


• Yung pangalawa kong toe sa paa (counting from right to left sa kanang paa, at counting left to right sa kaliwa kong paa)


• At kapag naging maayos ako sa kwarto

Kayo? Ano ang palatandaan niyo para sa mga mahal niyo sa buhay? Ano ang dapat nilang hanapin sa inyo para ma identify nila kayo? Tell me! Hehehe...

***Sa susunod kong blog entry, ilalagay ko naman yung mga palatandaan ko sa mga kabarkada ko. Hehehe...

Crushing

Noong bata ako, probably when I was in my grade school years, I used to like watching anime shows a lot! When I say a lot, it means that I watch them almost 24/7. Anime was my life back then. Sobrang adik ko talaga sa kanila.

I was a volleyball player when I was in grade school. I liked playing volleyball so much but not as much as I like watching anime. I remember missing the varsity tryout in volleyball because it will be held at 7 in the evening, which is unfortunately the same time as Dragon Ball Z. I sacrificed the tryout just to see my beloved Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, and my ex-husband Trunks. (yeah he's my husband before, well at least in my dreams he was!) Oh wait! Wala pa nga pala si Trunks doon sa Dragon Ball Z noong time na pinapanood ko yun noon! Oh well, alam ko na naman na character siya sa Dragon ball before pa siya nagpakita because I researched beforehand. Hehehe...

Kung patay na patay na ako kay Trunks, wait 'till I say Dennis. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! Mas patay na patay ako sa kanya noon! 'Dennis' is Kurama (in japanese) and is one of the main characters of Ghost Fighter or Yu yu Hakusho (in japanese) that became a popular anime series here in the Philippines. How popular you ask? Hmmm... SOBRA! As in para siyang inauguration ni Obama pero araw-araw nga lang pinapalabas. Sa sobrang in love ko kay Dennis, eh naging Dennis na nga ang nickname ko for a couple of months kasi puros siya na lang ang binabanggit ko. As in head over heels talaga ako sa kanya! I used to kiss his poster and even pray for him! Goodness! Thinking of what I was like before (yung patay na patay ako sa kanya na kapag tinawag siyang 'Taong Bobo' instead of 'Taong Lobo' eh nananapak na ako) gives me chills right now kasi parang ang weird, bayolente, at most importantly ang stupid ko noon. Natatawa na nga lang ako eh. Pero when I share this with my classmates and friends, it's funny and relieving at the same time to find someone who also went 'gaga' din over Dennis when they were kids. Sa apat na characters nang Ghost Fighter, it seemed that Dennis is the most favorite one.

Dennis was not my first crush though. I remember liking Quatre Raberba Winner first before Dennis. Nauna kasi atang ipinalabas ang Gundam Wing kesa sa Ghost Fighter. Head over heels din ako sa kanya pero not as head over heels as with Dennis. Hehehe... Then after niya si Trunks nang Dragon Ball.

I also remember having a crush on Faye Valentine nang Cowboy Bebop. Gosh! She's a girl alright, but she's so damn HOT! I can't help but fall for her! With that body of hers, it's impossible for her not to get what she wants!

-----------------------------------

My 'teen years' crushes were my longest crushes siguro kasi hanggang ngayon sila parin ang crushes ko. Hehehe...

-----------------------------------

First is Akira Sendoh of Slam Dunk. Siya ang may pinaka mataas na probability na sagutin ko kung maging tao siya at ligawan niya ako. Hahaha! He's so cool. I like him because he's so good with basketball. I believe na siya ang pinaka magaling sa basketball sa buong Slam Dunk world and I also believe that he's got the most stylish hairstyle sa lahat nang characters sa Slam Dunk. May tatalo pa ba sa uber spiky hair niya? I don't think so!

My next crush is Spike Spiegel nang Cowboy Bebop. I must admit, nag se-selos ako kay Julia na naka relasyon ni Spike dati. Hehehe... Napaka weird ko talaga. I like him because magaling siya sa martial arts and he's got this uber cool space ship called the Sword fish. He's a big fan of Bruce Lee (so am I) and looks good with those Lupin inspired shoes.

Ang last kong crush eh si Sousuke Sagara nang Full Metal Panic at nang Full Metal Panic Fumoffu. I like guys in the military (maybe because I like to join the military someday) and are tacticians. This does not necessarily means na gusto ko eh mga buff o mga maskulado. Actually gusto ko nang mga may abs kasi gusto ko lang firm ang abdomen area nila, pero after kong pisil pisilin saglit eh nagsasawa narin ako at maya maya pa'y bubugawin ko na sila. (bubugawin means na I'll shoo them away hindi yung bugaw na ibebenta ko sila as prostitutes ha!) I like to marry Sousuke if ever na maging tao siya. Hahaha! This is only because siya lang siguro yung pro-protekta sakin (using his weapons of course. hahaha!) and at the same time the one who will treat me not as a girl but as a comrade in a battle. Gusto ko kasi yung ganoon. I mean ayoko yung pa-special treatment ako sa ka-partner ko dahil lang girl ako. Gusto ko yung parang same gender lang kami o parang same level lang kami. Walang stronger or weaker sex samin.

Kung dito ka lumaki sa Pinas at naabutan mo pa yung start nang invasion nang mga anime series dito, tingin ko nagkaroon ka narin nang crush kahit sa isang anime character. Tell me about it! Nyahahaha! You're no strange! Kasi ang strange eh yung nag deviate lang sa statistical norms, meaning yung walang kaparehas! Eh meron! Ako! Hahaha! So you're no strange person! (so I guess I'll have to retract my statement above, yung sinabi kong weird ako)

All Me!

Anung meron sa pangalan ko?

While I was checking out my friend's blog entries on his multiply website, I found this link on his entry entitled "what's with my name?". I was intrigued with his title and thus I read what is inside that entry.

True happiness

As I was scavenging through my old pics, I found this folder containing pictures of me with my friends Mayie and Justine. And just all of a sudden, I turned back time.

I recalled having this pictures taken inside the Campus Ministry office at the Tan Yan Kee building of our school.

I must admit, I enjoy having FUN! Anytime! Anywhere! And for me, having fun along is not FUN at all! And so I always make it a point to enjoy with my friends. Enjoying for me means CRAZY PICTURES TAKEN and some samples of these pictures are the pictures here. I just love making WILD AND CRAZY pictures of my self with my friends because I believe that the more crazy the pictures are, the happier I am at the moment the pictures were taken. Therefore, real happiness for me is described as being with your friends and acting out crazy stuff with them with no hesitations.

Oh yeah, we do look ridiculous here. (Can't argue with that!) And not to mention, down right stupid! But hey, we had FUN!

Shooting these pictures are far more effective in releasing our stresses in life compared to breathing in and out!

So try having photos like these with your friends! Trust me it's worth your time because just like me, you might find pictures like these in your computer 10 years from now, and once you do, a smile will surely be imprinted in your face.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Along with these pictures is a video of me and Mayie doing a weird stunt that we've invented. Hahaha! It's us doing what the Christmas Tree behind us was doing. This had me laughing before and I guess it still does make me laugh. (with a crazy idea like that, who would not laugh?) You can also try doing some videos like this one to make you laugh whenever you're feeling down.

Embarassing photos are fun to tell

I am proud.

Yes I am proud! I am proud of my embarassing photos! Hahaha!!! I am at my happiest (or saddest) in my embarassing photos because it shows the true me. So it's either you make fun of me, doodle on my pictures, puke, or accept me for who I am.

In each of my embarassing pictures, there is a story to tell, so let me share you all that is to tell about my pictures.

This picture was taken by my friend Dul. (see my older
posts to know her) I remember that Mia and I were supposed to follow a script here (like pretend to be someone) but we ended up laughing.

This picture never fails to give me a giggle. I remember that I was so prepared to take a picture with these two but I never heard the camera 'clicking' and so I decided to let go of my pose already, but unfortunately the camera just suddenly 'clicked' and an awkward pose of me was taken instead!




I look so 'dugyutin' and dumb here. Hahaha! This was taken in Goldilocks at España. This was after I found out that there were no classes that day. I was so frustrated because I went to school for nothing! I even studied for our quiz! Damn!







This was photoshopped by Mia. She wrote the 'Iisa pa lamang' there because according to her it can be a theatrical poster of the said show. Well for me it is just plain embarassing. I look like I am about to spit something! This was supposed to be romantic but it became a disastrous picture because of ME!



This was in Corregidor. Jologs is in for me but not for other people. I was wearing my sister's ray ban shades there. I thought I was cool, but the pictures told me otherwise. My friend Jem (the guy on the left) already told me (or warned me) that I look blind but that didn't stopped me to keep on wearing those shades.

This was back when we were in first year. Jem and See (some classmates of ours) decided to treat us for lunch. We were having this usual picture taking-as-a-souvenir thing. Sadly, I focused too much on the bottle of pepper that I forgot to drop it when this picture was taken. And oh, I also forgot to smile! Hehehe...

These are just some of my embarassing pictures. It'll take too much space if I include everything here so I'll just add the others some other time.

I hope I made you laugh (even just a bit) with my humiliating pictures.

***Photos are from Jem and Mia

What year is it?

Parang kailan lang nag umpisa ang taong 2008, ngayon ay tapos na siya. Ano nga ba ang mga naganap noong 2008? Most importantly, ano nga bang nangyari sa akin sa taong kakatapos lang? As if naman mahalaga ito sa inyo noh? Well, gusto ko lang i-share. Hehehe...

The year 2008 was the year of the rat pero since marami kaming pusa dito sa bahay eh hindi kami dinaga. Wais ata ito! The rat represents the dirtiest animal for some (sa akin hindi sila ganun kadumi at kadiri. I actually like them because they remind me of someone...hmm...ako?) at marahil dahil dito naging pinaka maruming taon ko na siguro ang 2008. Hehehe... Pakiramdam ko hindi ako naglinis buong taong 2008! Well, except naman sa katawan ko, nililinis ko rin naman siya paminsan minsan, siguro mga twice a year? Joke! This 2008 din pala nahilig ako sa keso o cheese. Parang marami rin akong na consume na milk this past year. Oha! These are merely coincidence pero pano nga kaya kung nakadepende sa kung anong chinese animal symbol (o kung ano pa man ang tawag dun sa zodiac o whatever na yan) nang year ang tadhana mo? As in literal! Pano kung ang nature nang animal nang taong darating ang maging nature din nang mga tao!? For example, like this year! Sabi nila year of the Ox daw ang 2009, so what if mag asal Ox din tayo ngayong 2009? Like what if kumain din tayo nang damo gaya nila? What if kung sa palayan din tayo magbabad? What if magbalat kalabaw din tayo? (shucks eh di kakapal din ang balat natin? teka, kalabaw is Ox di ba?) What if may piercing din tayo sa ilong? (may mga pictures nang Ox na may isang malaking round na earing/ring na nasa ilong nila di ba? napaka uncertain ko sa Ox!) What if nga kung ganun noh? So kapag nagkataon na mangyari yun, ano kayang magandang maging? Hmm.... Hehehe... Ako gusto ko palaging nasa year of the Dragon para madaling magluto, isang buga ko lang tustado na ang pagkain! Oh yeah! How convenient is that! Eh kayo, anung gusto niyo maging?

While I'm stuck in my weird fantasies of becoming a dragon myself, I would like to greet you all a Happy New Year! May this year bring blessings to all of us! Sana swertehin tayo sa lahat nang aspeto nang ating buhay! Oh I almost forgot, wala nga pala akog nilagay na pera noong New Year's eve, so ibig bang sabihin nun mawawalan ako nang pera buong taon? Oh no! Wala naman kasing bulsa yung damit ko noon! Oh no! But I did jump once though. Once is enough for me, ang laki ko na kasi eh. And sana naman yung itinalon kong iyon eh magpalaki sakin vertically not horizontally!

***Pahabol pa! Ang singkamas ba ay prutas o gulay? Kasama kasi siya sa mga prutas namin pero hindi namin alam kung ano ba talaga siya.

The Hate of Hating Someone

"Wag niya akong subukan!"

I'm a compassionate girl pero ang compassion ko ay may limits din. Mabait ako kung sa mabait, pero kung ayaw mong magpaawat sa pagiging insensitive mo, eh wag mo na akong kausapin. May pride ako, and yes, paminsan sumosobra rin, pero I make it a point na sumobra siya kapag nasa tamang position ako. Kapag alam kong nasa tamang lugar ako, talagang hindi ako mag so-sorry sayo. Initiative is the key in winning me back. A simple 'sorry' will be enough for me. After nun, I'm sure lalambot narin ako and mag so-sorry din.

So what's with that? Eh kasi may insensitive kasi akong friend na nakakasakit na sakin. I was so concerned about her pa naman, tapos gaganunin lang niya ako!!! How dare her! Thinking na ang dami ko pa namang naitulong sa kanya in the past! (Yes, I'm counting her blessings brought about by our friendship) Oh and I just remembered, kapag ako naman ang nangangailangan hindi naman niya ako tinutulungan! I'm not asking for her help naman, yung simpleng pagiging thankful lang by being nice to me ang hinihiling ko and yet hindi parin niya magawa. Instead, she gives me this nasty facial expression pa dahil naging concerned lang ako sa kanya.

Kung alam lang niya kung gaano ko siya tinitiis tuwing nagkikita kami. Hindi ko siya tinitiis dahil friend ko siya, tinitiis ko siya dahil kawawa lang siya sakin kapag nagalit ako. Kapag nagalit kasi ako, nananakit ako physically at brutally pa. I can honestly say na kaya ko talaga pumatay nang tao kapag nagagalit ako without any remorse afterwards. Hindi ako nagyayabang o naninindak, kaso yun talaga ang totoo.

So ikaw na pinatatamaan ko nito, ayaw kitang patayin dahil kahit pano mahal parin kita, kaya naman MAGTINO KA NA INSENSITIVE! HINDI MO PAG AARI ANG MUNDONG ITO! HINDI LAHAT NANG TAO LULUHOD SAYO AT MAGTIYATIYAGA SA UGALI MO! MAGING SENSITIBO KA NAMAN!

Ulitin mo pa ang ginawa mo sakin at malilintikan ka na talaga! Kung natatakot ka na marinig ang mga pagkakamali mo (na I'm sure ide-deny mo kasi alam mo na totoo!) at mabara sa mga sasabihin ko, wag mo na ako subukan!

Wag na wag mo nang i-brought up itong topic na ito sakin. If you want to prove to me of how sensitive you are, (Kung may balak kang magbago) just shut the hell up and show me how sorry you were! Kung hindi ka talaga sensitive, then let me just hit you in the face! Or just DIE!

And did I just entitled this entry as "The Hate of Hating Someone"? Perhaps it should have been "The Love of Hating Someone"?=P

Autograph

Ever since bata pa ako, mahilig na talaga ako sumagot nang mga autograph books. Actually, mahilig akong sumagot nang kahit anung tanong, mababaw man o super personal. I answer practically just about everything! Hehehe... Kaya naman ngayon ay ilalagay ko ang ilang facts about me sa isang autograph-like na format. Wahahaha!!! You can't stop me from disclosing dark things about myself!

Meet my Barkada

Yes, that is me, on the left. I am not that good looking, but NO, that doesn't mean that my friends are like me. As a matter of fact, they're the most beautiful people you'll ever meet.

We call our barkada 'UTUT', which stands for 'Unyon nang mga Taong Ubod nang Tamad'. But at one point in time, some of us deviated from the theme of our group and thus was almost kicked out of our group. But everything is fine now! Thank goodness!=P

Anyway, I will now introduce my barkada to you!

First up!

This is Virginia Nisperos. We call by her nickname Mayie. Mayie is from Cagayan, not from Cagayan de Oro but from Cagayan Valley in the Northern part of the Philippines. When we were in our freshmen year, she was the most grade conscious among us (and believe, this sucks for anyone of us who doesn't study very well) and was often teased with one of our classmates named John Uy. (walang censorship dito!) Perhaps she was the reason why I joined our barkada, that is because she was the one who introduced me to the others. (kinapalan ko na nga lang ang mukha ko sa kanila nung una eh para may kasama lang ako) Kung partnership ang pag uusapan, marahil ang kapareha ni Mayie is si Justine. They always go home together, eat together, enroll together, go to the CR together, etc. They're pretty much glued to each other. Mayie doesn't admit anything about her love life, that is why I am curious to know who she really likes. Hihihi...

The next one is Ma. Justine Pangilinan. We simply call her Dul. (I really don't now why we bestowed this nickname on her...well actually it was Mayie who did bestowed it on her) She is from Tarlac, also located at the Northern part. She is probably the most young looking one among us, although she is the second oldest. (I am the oldest! Darn!) She is very obedient and probably the most soft spoken. She was in the messiest trouble that ever entered our group, the strange love triangle between her, a pig, and a whore! (it's too complicated... you have to be irrational to understand the whole story. It took me a week to force myself to be irrational just to tell you this part) Technically she was not part of it, she was just involved because of the irrationality of the pig and the whore. (sabi ko sa inyo eh, irrational na talaga ako!)

Up next is Abegail Joyce Sabayo. People often mistake her surname as 'Sa Bio', meaning 'sa Biology'. We call her Abby. She is from Novaliches. (thank God! malapit lapit na samin) Not only is she the whitest in complexion among us, she's also the whitest person I've ever met in my entire life. If she becomes a commercial model for a whitening soap or lotion, that brand would definitely sell to the max!!! (that would be scary!) She's the mataray one. Next would probably be Mayie. Her laugh is contagious and is literally, 'He-he-he-he...'. She's pratically blind without her glasses or her contact lenses. It takes forever before she finishes her thing inside the CR. (it sometimes makes me think that she's flushed down the toilet while she's inside) She is very passionate about baking.

Then there is Maria Rebecca Sarmiento. We are fond of calling her Becky. (pero hindi niya kamukha si Becky nang Princess Sarah) She lives in Bulacan. (hindi ko alam kung North or South siya) She's the demon among us, always torturing us with her slapsticks! Slapsticks are those slaps at the back or at any part of your body that really hurt. It makes you wanna kill her and throw her corpse out of the window afterwards. (as a revenge) Although she only does this when she's laughing or giggling because of someone's joke. (so you might want to keep your distance from her all the time because you'll never know when is the next joke coming, better be prepared) She is the number one leaver, this means she is always in a hurry to go home.

And the last one is Ma. Shenny Joy Santiago. We call her Shenny or Shen. She is Ilocana, coming from Laoag there in the North pole este Northern area of the Philippines pala. She speaks Ilocano dialect. She is a member of the CSJ or College of Science Journal and as a matter of fact, she is the Associate Editor. She loves Jude Law and has a huge crush on the Editor of some famous newspaper. Hehehe... (kay Mayie lang pala ang walang censorship) She is the gossip girl of the group. She has a huge number of crushes, but the two aforementioned are her greatest crushes. She hated the fact that we were always dismissed early on our BMA II Laboratory class, but she eventually accepted it. (wala naman siya magagawa eh...hehehe...)

I am so happy to have met them!=)

Why I Hate Christmas

Don't get me wrong, I love the holidays because there are no classes plus you can sleep anytime you want! (well at least I am allowed to sleep whenever I want to, I don't know with you?) I can pig out and be extremely messy in my room. And the most fun part during the holiday season is that I can take my bath just when I feel the urge to do it! Hahaha!!! That's how gross I can become when the holiday season strikes!!! Pretty disgusting right? Nyahahaha!!!

I'm pretty much free and controlling over my life during the holidays, but there's this one thing that upsets me about the holidays, and that is the season's high light which is the Christmas Day itself! Darn, how I wish I could learn to love Christmas just like the rest of the people in this world. Loving Christmas might be the second hardest thing to accomplish for me. (the hardest thing to do is to love Chemistry) Just when the whole world, or at least half of it, is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, I sit all alone in my room anticipating the coming of the first day of school the following year.

Ever since I was a child, I hated Christmas already. Perhaps it is because Santa Clause never really gave me what I really wished for when I was little. Want to know what I kept on wishing to Santa when I was a kid? Hehehe... I remembered constantly wishing for a big set of Polly Pocket, and that darn Santa Clause never gave me one! Instead, he gave me a Barie Doll to be groomed! What a pain in the ass that Santa was! Up until now, I just couldn't get over what Santa did to me when I was young! From that point on, my grudge against Santa had lead me to this feeling of hatred towards Christmas in general. I resented any man who looks just like him---fat, red, half-bald, womanizer, doesn't know how to keep his promises, mentally retarded, no permanent address, ego maniac, delusional, promiscuous, rapist, pedophile, pervert, etc. (am I still talking about the same Santa that a lot of you know? maybe I overdid it a bit) Ah basta, I don't like him!

Ang moral lesson dito ay wag maging mataba katulad ni Santa Clause! Obese kasi siya eh, ayan tuloy, naapektuhan ang kanyang cognitive ability. Tsk tsk tsk!

***I don't believe in Santa!***

Facts of schooling

Sa tagal ko nang nag aaral sa paaralan (syempre!), madami narin akong nakilalang tao! Iba ibang personalidad at ugali ang aking nakilala na. Marami rami narin pero kaya ko paring bilangin sa aking mga daliri ang bilang nang mga klasipikasyon nang mga taong aking na nakilala sa eskwelahan. At eto sila:

• Mababait na kaibigan- Eto yung mga taong tutulungan ka sa sandaling mangailangan ka. Ultimo napkin kapag may period ka eh bibigyan ka. Eto ang mga taong nangungutang pero nagababayad din. Kapag naluluha, sila ang nauunang mag bigay nang handkerchief sayo para hindi puros uhog ang ilong mo pagkatapos. Ang generous magbigay nang regalo tuwing Birthday mo at kapag Pasko. Yung nangangako at tinutupad ang pangako nila. yung tumutulong sa assignment mo sa pamamagitan nang pagpapahiram sayo nang sarili nilang assignment at sa pagpapakopya nito sayo nang walang halong sama nang loob. Eto yung mga tumutulong sayo sa recitation kapag nagkataong tinawag ka nang prof mo nang wala sa oras.


• Clef-To!- Eto yung palaging makati ang mga palad. Gustong-gusto ang gamit nang ibang tao, kulang na lang sambahin ito! Probably walang trabaho ang magulang. Madalas nasa Chapel para maghugas nang mga kasalanan nila. Eto yung masarap sabunutan!


• Manyakis- Hipo nang hipo sa waistline. Intimidated kasi mas sexy ako sa kanila. Matatabang parang baboy ang mga ito. Akala nila sila ay si Atlas na parating hawak ang mundo.


• Far sighted people- Kainggit-inggit! Kagila-gilalas! Madalas na nakaupo sa pinaka likod na row sa classroom. Ang kinokopyahan tuwing exams ay malalayong tao. Pag nangboboso, nasa labas nang CR.


• Bitzes- Atribida. Usually pangit sila pati BOBO. Nakasusulasok ang presensya. Mabaho.


• Comedians- Masarap kasama pero kadalasan ay barat. Madalas sila yung mga 'chubby' people. Sila yung mga sincere pati malalalim mag isip.


• Users- Hindi sila 'friendly'. Mahilig silang magtapon nang basura after nilang gamitin ito. They usually form a group of their own. Mahilig magpa 'prettify' para magmukha silang appealing sa mga tao. Eto yung mga mayayaman pero hindi mahal nang mga magulang.


• Smarties- Grade conscious SOBRA! Naka laminate lahat nang mga test papers nila at naka tabi sa fireproof na case sa bahay nila. Straight forward sa mga gusto nila. Can easily ditch their friends just to attain a very high grade. Leader palagi sa mga group works. Self confident. Puyat parati.


• Inferiors- Halos kabaligtaran nang mga Smarties.


• Smartferios- Sila yung mga Geniuses! Hindi lang halata kasi super low nang kanilang profile sa class.


• Pilosopo- Magaling mamilosopo. Magandang kaibiganin kasi kapag may kaaway ka, patay kagad sila sa mga arguments niya. Kadalasan hindi sila nag a-abugado at hindi din sila aktibo sa Debate org.


• Ogags- Gago for short. Eto yung mga patapon na ang buhay. Puros ka-iligalan ang mga ginagawa. Palaging nakangiti at tatawa tawa lang. Kadalasan mga lalaki sila.


• Bahay Kubo- Wala masyadong social life ang mga taong ito. Mas close sila sa pamilya nila kontra sa mga kaibigan. Mahihiyain.


• Broccoli- Eto yung mga green minded people. 24/7 silang color green. Ang hilig nila ay ang mga bastos na topics. Hindi sila boyfriend or girlfriend material. Hoarders sila pagdating sa mga joke books, comics, at magazines na color green. They participate actively in class. Color green ang highlighters nila.


• Jologs- Sila yung mga pinuwersang maging out of place. Hate sila nang marami sa hindi malamang dahilan. Para sa maraming tao, salot sila pero ang totoo yung mga nagiisip pang salot sila ang totoong salot. Madaldal. Eto yung taong baon sa utang pero hindi naman umuutang sa kahit sino. They need to please everyone because everyone thinks that she needs to please them.


• KIA- Know-it-all.


• Vain- Maraming varicous veins sa mukha kaya conscious at parating nag sasalamin. Mga walang camera kaya pag nakakita nang camera eh pa-picture nang pa-picture. Magaling mang ubos nang battery nang camera.


• Mangungain- Hindi kumakain sa bahay. Makapal ang mukha dahil mahilig umubos nang pagkain nang iba. Di tinatablan nang bala.


• Bulkasil- Super ang insensitive! Utos nang utos! As in to the max! Tapos hindi marunong magpasalamat. Padala nang padala.


• Addict mobile subscriber- Adik sa text. 24/7 naka unlimited! Mahilig mag group message. Pwede nang mensahero. Post office ang binabagsakan pagka gradute.


• Is-nobish- Matagal mo nang kaklase, minsan ka lang kung pansinin. May pagka user.


• Plirt- Kalandian lang ang maipag mamayabang na katangian.


• Koreans- Hindi sila galing Korea pero puros Korean novelas ang bukang bibig.

Yan pa ang mga natatandaan ko sa mga nakilala ko na. Marami pa sila pero eto lang muna ang ilalagay ko. Dadagdagan ko na lang ulit pag naalala ko na yung iba pa.

O? Sino kayo dyan? Aminin!!! Comment lang kayo!

Happy days are soon to be gone

It's November 3, 2008 today and you know what that means? It means that tomorrow is going to be November 4, 2008! Hehehe... And it also means that I'll be going back to school again after a month's break from studying.

Our sem break is over and I'm not putting the word 'finally' into it. Usually, when it's time to go back to school again, I turn all giggly and excited because I know that I'll be seeing my friends in school again and more importantly, I'll be having my weekly allowance again! Yipee! But surprisingly, I don't feel like that right now. I have mix emotions, I'm feeling a little bit of happiness with a little bit of nervousness and I'm also SCARED!

"Aba, hindi ata madali ang buhay estudyante lalo na sa College level noh! I'm not exaggerating if I tell you na parang nag ta-trabaho narin ako habang nag aaral! Just imagine, I drink barrels of coffee (Now that's an exaggeration!) just to keep my eyes open to finish our homeworks and projects and to study for our quizzes and major exams! (Lucky you if you are not doing this! Eh ako, hindi ko kaya kasi na walang kape!) I even have to beg to my profesors to lower down the passing grade just so I could make it to the cut off! (I'm really am a beggar now huh? So my photo fits!) Wahahaha!!!=P"

My call time for tomorrow is at 7 AM and I'll have to meet my friend in front of our Department office to line up for our pre-advising. I'm writing this up because I might forget all about this. Hahaha!!!

It's time for me to take on the harsh world called College AGAIN. I just hope that at the end of this semester, I'm still alive and kicking.

Note: Don't be like me, scared and nervous of what is going to happen. Remember, that if you pray and try to do your best, nothing is going to stop you from reaching your goals! Good luck to us all!

Blogs! Random! Blogs!

Let me start this entry by saying that I'm new here! Hehehe... And that my target readers are Pinoys or Filipinos or Pilipinos that are bored with their lame lives! Just kidding! Well, to tell you the truth, I'm the one who is bored here! That's why I created this crappy blog that I wished to sell out to as many people as possible. Parang business lang ha!

I already have a friendster and a multiply account and in each of those I have a blog area wherein I write most of what my brain dictates me to write. My friendster blog was definitely a flat zero blog account. Nobody reads it and nobody wants to read it, much to my disdain. As to my multiply account, my blog was a much better success compared to my friendster blog. I was happy with my multiply blog, but apparently I don't feel like I am getting to anyone there. (Well except of course to my contacts because my setting is set for my contacts to view all my blog entries)

Now maybe you are wondering right now why I registered in this blog website thingy (I don't know it's appropirate name so forgive me for calling it like this) right? I registered here because of a famous celebrity here in the Philippines that was featured in one of the cable channels here that I happened to see. He actually has one account here and writes in his blog, I guess, almost on a regular basis. Now I don't want to reveal who he really is because he might actually come to read this post and might discover that he is my inspiration for doing this thing called blogging here! Hehehe... How embarassing! Well, I've counted the odds of him seeing my blog, particularly this blog entry, and I've come to this result that he will never see it even a billion years after his death. (He's dead alright! I know! I'll give him peace!)

So what's with the name of the blog? Why call your blog, 'Nevertheless, this is different!'? Well because this is not your average ordinary blog! I don't know the universal meaning of blog and I'm too lazy to go search for its meaning, so I assigned my own meaning to it! For me, a blog means an online journal. Wait, there is no solid-like blog now is there? Well if there is, just post a comment on this and correct me will ya? Thanks! Ahem! As I was saying, a blog for me is an online journal. Online means that an internet connection is needed to operate. A journal means that it is like a diary where you place all of what you had experienced in your life. So with this meaning, I will deviate a little by putting in not just my experiences, but also a whole more stuff! Trust me, oftentimes it will be RANDOM. So I have to warn you now people! There's one crazy little person here that is about to spread some of her craziness to you! Hehehe...

Soon, I'll be sharing things to you. Good. Bad. Whatever it is, definitely must be random.
