I didn't think so.

When you feel like you wanna make your world noiseless, the best thing to do is stare at an object and focus. Life will all of a sudden make you travel through time and will make you rediscover how magical your boring life can be. You surprisingly see the people you spend all of your time with in an eery-like manner. You find out why the first time you met them, you felt a certain kind of fondness, why you didn't feel at ease with them, why you knew that you can never be close friends with them, why you went into a "catch-a-gaze" contest with them... There is no sound, it's purely VISUAL... it's superficial.

But do we actually believe that surfaces are what constitute superficiality?

I didnt think so.

MAHAL KO NA SIYA.

Sa umpisa inakala kong ang puso ko ay mananatili kay Ace Young. Ngunit nagbago na ang lahat. Sa ngayon ay mahal ko sya...

CHRIS DAUGHTRY ng aking buhay...


handa akong maging querida mo. =P

JUS KO PO.

It's nice to goof around once again with my law school peeps. And it's way better when I am goofing around with my law school peeps and my college friends. Japhet was in Starbucks this evenin and he got to hang out with us NERDS. Paula also came and t'was a hilarious night.

What I could not stand was the fact that they practically made my night CRAZY by continuously tormenting me. "How?" you might ask. Sa pamamagitan ng panunukso nila sa akin at sa aking "alleged dyowa" na self-proclaimed naman ni Hazel. Guys, ok sana e pero wala talagang feelings. Bakit di nyo na lang ako tuksuhin sa aking tunay na napupusuan? (i.e. BSB...) Sa tingin ko ay nahahalata na nyang may nangyayaring kababalaghan at sa aking pananaw ay unti-unting nasisira ang aming pagiging magkaibigan dahil sa ainyong kabaliwan. Kamusta naman si Japhet na sadyang nag-lettering pa sa aking handout? Kamusta naman si Melo na finorward pa ang kanyang number? A for effort guys. Good job. Hazeeeeeel! Pagbabayaran mo ang lahat ng ito.

I just need to say this. Yihee ANA!!!! MAy lovelife... hehe. Ikaw talaga SILENCIO DE GALAW ka ha!

At Ces... yihee! girl na girl tayo nitong mga nakaraan araw a. Nung Saturday naka-pink ka. At kanina, ikaw naman ay naka frilly top. May hindi ba kami nalalaman? Ehem, ehem.

I almost fainted this afternoon because of stress. I wasnt ready to recite for Oblicon. Just when I was trying to get strength from Ana, she just had to whisper... "Pass na ko." with a resigned look. Hay naku Ana! At dahil nga ako ay may dilang anghel, Fr. B just gave a lecture on Article XIV Sections 1-8. Whew! Sabi ko na nga ba walang recits e.

I heard that Anton's pursuing his passion for teaching. He won't be around next sem 'coz he'll be teaching in Ateneo (Loyola). Another future goodbye's to be uttered huh? Sadness.

Panalong Statement:
(Pinakilala ko si Japhet at Paula)
Lea: Bakit ang gaganda nyo? Sigurdao ba kayong kaibigan nyo si Eunice?

Hay naku. Salamat ha. Alam ko naman sadyang kay pangit ko na ngayon. Ipagduldulan ba?! Hmmp. Low EQ!~

Pahabol na mga Sentimyento.

I was just thinking, John Lloyd's role reminded me of a few men in my past. Nakakadiri nga e. Artist, photographer, goofy, secretive, emotinal, bestfriend. Synergy ng lahat ng iba't ibang characteristics ng mga lalaking nagdaan sa aking buhay. Bwahaha. (Euns, feeling mo naman connected nanaman sayo ang plot nun film! Narcissistic ka talaga, Lech!)
-----------------
Message para sayo:
Oo, pwede tayo magkape. Ang tanong, gusto mo ba talagang ma-associate sa kape? Bad imagery dude!

On Everything.

Panalo Conversation:

Marianne: Mamahalin mo parin ako kahit na malaki un braso ko?
Palits: Kahit maging kasing-tigas pa ng palu-palo yan.
Marianne: Kahit maging lumba-lumba ako?
Palits: Matagal ka nang lumba-lumba... pero kahit maging balyena ka pa!

Ana and Pi, di ako magpapatalo... Dont give me that look! Yes, I chose to watch Close To You over Brokeback Mountan and Pink Panther. But only because I refuse to be emotional, and I refuse to think and uhmm, I can't get enough of the song... uhmm, I dunno the title... basta. "Oh why wont you smile my only star..."

John Lloyd's adorable. I'm not gonna say anything intellectual because there is nothing intellectual about the film. T'was funny. Ayun. Na-bother lang ako kasi the whole time, tinutukso nila si Bea na mataba, eh di kaya sya mataba. Kaya maraming nagiging anorexic at bulemic eh!

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

I got to chat with my charming buddy Sam. He's putting up his own resto at Pearl Drive and he's really excited about it. The resto's gonna be serving Indian food! Haay, IT'S ABOUT TIME! 'tis gonna open in three weeks, therefore... May bagong resto na MUST-TRY. It's nice to know that my friends are growing and are finding their passion. It always gives me positive energy to pursue MY OWN PASSION. Basta.

Last Saturday was my sister's JS Prom. That's why I went home early, besides the fact that I was soooo sleepy. I didnt want to miss the opportunity to see her being the beautiful sister that she is. Nakaka-proud. In fairness, ang ganda na ng kapatid ko. At ang masaklap, SEXY sya. Opo, isa syang skinny, model-like entity. Ako lumba-lumba. Payn.
-------------

Gotta continue my brainstorming for the Legal Writing presentation. Hay, andami pinapagawa! Special Power of Attorney, Minutes of the Meeting at ang revision ng What is an Ateneo Lawyer essay. Not to mention that our Logic Paper on Fallcies' due next week. Argh. Busy busy busy.
-------------

I still am affected by the Leyte Tragedy. Ang bigat sa dibdib.

Congrats to Viloria for winning his Boxing Match. Sikat ang Pinoy!

Kapiling sa Palasyo

"God was with us when we did it. --- Group One Theology

Our Theo report was a complete success!!! Congratulations to Group One: Human Rights for simply ACING IT! Hats off to everyone who gave everything they can for the report. Just the thought of people appreciating everything that we prepared for really made my day. We're so glad that we at least made our classmates happy during the 30 minutes that we conquered the stage. Ayon nga kay Fr. Mangulabnan, "Natural na natural." Wooohoo! We nailed it.

If you guys are interested to get a hold of our "VCD", uhmm.. contact Shem. Haha. [Shem, pressure, i-edit na natin un vcd un may kasamang "behind the scenes"]

(I was trying to upload the pictures but I'm too tired to wait for it.. so next time na lang.)

Let's go UP!

I went to the UP Fair the 2nd time this week. We just felt that we needed to celebrate because of our report's success. [Nakahanap ng dahilan!] Shem went shopping again. At ako? Na-harass lang naman sa isang pulutong ng mga kalalakihang im sure di taga-UP na bigla na lang nag-emerge nang ang minamahal ko nang si Bamboo ang nagpe-perform. Nakakalungkot na kelangan ko silang maamoy at kelangan nila ako masiksik kung kailan namang kailangan ko sanang mag-concentrate sa aking minamahal. Oh well Rockwell. Got to eat ISAW muli.. ayon nga kay Shem, "Guys.. I WANT ISAW" (Say it the Assumptioooon way,hehe) Lea and Ces got tattooes. Natupad ni Lea ang kanyang pangarap este pantasya, piangkaguluhan sya ng mga kalalakihan habang nagpapa-tattoo sya. Masaya, masaya.

Ano ang di masaya? Nasira ko din ang phone ni Mel. Un Memory Card ko pala ang infected ng virus. Ayun na, so nun tina-transfer ko un contacts ko, bigla na lamang ding nag general system error ang phone ni Mel. Good job PAKING BAYRUS!

Keri lang.

How did I celebrate my Valentine's? Simple lang. I rocked with Ces, Ana and Haze at the UP FAir! Woohoo.

I bumped into Japhet this afternoon. Keri naman pala. It's all good. Basta.

Ayon sa kwento nila Pi at Ces, topakin ang mga tao kanina. I came to a conclusion na it must be because I wasnt there to make them feel happy. Ayy feelingera talaga.

Da best un kwento nila about sa pagpapanic ng mga tao dahil wala ako. Ito daw ang mga paraan na naisip nila para ma-contact ako. [Dahil nga my phone gave up on me] Laughtrip talaga.

1. Hanapin ang landline number ko sa directory. So nag-net sila.
2. Hanapin ang address ko sa net, pero mahihirapan sila dahil maraming Monsod sa mundo.
PERO AND PANALO AY....

3. Pumunta sa kanto na binabaan ko pag hinahatid nila ako at magtanong-tanong sa mga tricycle driver kung alam nila kung saan ang bahay ko.

Laughtrip. Popular kid e no?
Pero buti na lag naisip nila na imposibleng di ako dumating. At buti na lang naisip nila na nasa Starbucks lang ako. Hay naku, mga topak kayo!

Nasira ko din ang phone ni Mel. Un memory card ko yata ang may virus. Buti na lang binackup ko muna un memory ng phone nya bago ko tinransfer un mga contacts ko. Oh well. Shit ALWAYS happens.

Theo reporting later... STEP UP!! hehe. Let's go "Kapiling sa Palasyo" actors and actresses... Woohoo!

Last na lang...

I was left alone last night because Ana and Shem went home early. Shem didnt have a choice and the reason why Ana had to go home was "nasisikipan sya sa damit nya". Ayun.

While I was reading my Oblicon cases, a familiar face emerged. T'was Mr. Tijam. Ang saya, at least nagkaron ako ng kadaldalan kahit sandali. In fairness tawa lang kami ng tawa. He was waiting for his friend Jen, whom I got introduced to. Natuwa ako sa aming conversation at mejo nagliwanag ang aking kasing-gloomy ng Oblicon na gabi. Salamat mga unexpected guests. Apir.

Natawa ako dahil ayon kay TJ, tumakbo raw sya sa Student Council in the past. BIgla ko nanaman namiss ang UP, ang ECOSOC tambayan at ang lahat ng mga taong konektado sa Peyups. Haaaay. Muntik na nga nila ako ni Jen mapapayag na makipag-inuman na lang sa kanila. Pero buti na lang nanaig ang kabutihan sa kasamaan, nanatili ako sa Starbucks upang basahin ang mga kasong naghihintay.

Next time na lang mga kapatid. Next time.

At bago ako umuwi ay nilapitan ko ang aking bagong drinking buddy na si Ann(e?)...

O sya. Tatahimik na'po.

Bring it on!

Lew: Do you wanna join the Speed Dating event tomorrow night?
Euns: What time and where?
Lew: 9 sa Teehankee.
Euns: Sino kasama ko? (mahina lang) Pero di ako maganda!

Seryoso, nakakatakot. Di ako maganda...
(nang ibinalita ko sa aking mga friendly friends)
Euns: Guys, gusto nyo sumama sa Speed Dating event tomorrow? Ininvite kasi ko ni Lew e.
Melo: Go ka na!
Euns: Pero di ako maganda!
Melo: Sasaksakin ko ito e.
Friends: Friendly ka naman.
Euns: (sa isip) Thanks guys.
Ana: May redeeming factor ka naman.
Ces: Magpatawa ka na lang. Malakas naman loob mo e.
EUns: ( sa isip lang) Thanks guys.
Haze: Go na. Tapos ikwento mo samin.
Euns: (sa isip lang parin) Thanks guys.
Nakakatawa. hehe.

Balentayms nanaman. Oh well Rockwell.

What are the chances na un CAB na sinakyan ko papunta Ateneo na nagpatugtog ng "Para Sa'yo ang Laban Na'to" ni Pacquiao ay sya ring CAB na masasakyan ko pauwi? Creepy.

I hate Mongkok. I hate Mongkok. I hate Mongkok. Basta.

Ah hija, on deck ka sa Oblicon at Consti bukas. Tigilan mo na ang pagb-blog.

We are all made to believe that we should be headed in the same direction, inside a seemingly restrictive box that gives us free will a...
