Waiting for my dad to pick me up for school. 😀 Yesterday was a holiday so you know the feeling of coming back to school. And not to mention that it’s a summer class and that it’s supposed to be a summer vacation. But I’m not gonna whine much about this ’cause hopefully this is gonna be my last summer class for college before I graduate.

Yaaay! I’m so back myself now. 😀

Later, I’ll be going to Jen’s house because we we’re both invited to a friend’s graduation party. It’ll be an early dinner for us so maybe afterwards Jen and I will be hanging out.

Happy days are coming. 🙂

Night Jog

Last night, my mom and I went for a quick jog in Sagñay, a suburban area. We felt the rural tranquility of the place so we totally had a good time running. Too bad tho we didn’t have other company with us. The original plan was to jog from Sagñay to Nato, a beach neigborhood. But then, it was kinda late night already and there were quite a few motorcycles passing by the road PLUS it’s dark on the way so we didn’t give it a go.

Half an hour after running and squirming(yes, I did squirm a lot. Mom kept on scaring me whenever we pass a dark shade), we finally went on a stop and decided to visit my mom’s cousin. Spent another hour chatting with them while sitting outside their house. Damn. It felt good to just sit and feel the fresh air. It’s not everyday we see a road with nothing but stray cats and dogs.

4. Beef jerky! I could be thrown far far away in a land of nowhere and still survive. Just give me a handful of those please.

5. I’d like to think I’m good at playing Sudoku and Rubix cube. 🙂 Math geek, eh? Not really 😉

6. I have a thing for musicians. I like a guy who could play a guitar. Ghaad. Just thinking about it gives me the chills.

7. I’m quite an independent woman in a sense that I wouldn’t give a fudge just because I’m by myself watching a movie or to strolling in a mall or whatever. But still, having company is much better and I prefer having someone with me as much as possible.

8. I can’t cook. I just can’t, damnit!

My Answers to Liv’s Question

1. Do you have a hidden talent?

Yep. I can do the aging voice. Haha. I know it’s not much but I’m proud of it because my family can’t. Lol. A lot of people got fooled by my talent too. Funny times.

2. What’s your favorite quote?

Everything happens for a reason. As cliche as it sounds, this one is a lot deeper than one can think.

3. What do like doing besides blogging?

I seldom blog so these are the things that I usually do. Listening to music, writing diary, running, watching movies, reading books, playing with my baby sis, chatting, tumblring, imagining, and sleeping during afternoons.

4. What is your dream job?

I don’t have a dream job now. But I had before. I wanted to be a dentist when I was a kid. After that, I dreamt of being a flight attendant so that I could be everywhere else. And lastly, when I was in highschool, I was contemplating to be a volunteer (peace corps, united nation or even locally).

5. What is your favorite TV program?

A South Korean game show called Running Man. Funny as shit. Watch it. 🙂

6. What is your favorite chocolate?

*nose scrunch* at the sight of the word chocolate. 🙂 I have nothing against it, it’s just not my thing. Vanilla for me is.

7. What is the weirdest/most random piece of trivia you know?

Idk any. Help me?

8. Is there any TV shows you want to start watching? If so what?

Yes please! NCSI, Suits, Law and Order, New girl, Sherlock, Friends. Too many for my little luxury time. 😦

9. What are you meant to be doing right now?

Eat my lunch. I’m starting to feel hungry but I’m all alone so maybe I’ll just leave it at that.

10. What’s your dream bedroom look like?

Uggh. Too bad I can’t show you the pic. It’s on my other pc. Anyway, I just want a small room with an open balcony so that I can use it for my telescope for stargazing. One of the things I love is stargazing 🙂 which brings me to rooftops. I want a room with an access to the attic by a ladder or anything and up in the attic I can go open an installed window and feel the night air! 🙂

11. What is your favourite thing about blogging?

I’m a sentimental person and I’d like to keep things and memories through whatever means. Blogging for me is like a diary, instead it’s online and other people have access to it. It also helps me express my emotion that only blog can satisfy. 😉

T.O.D.A.Y

What was I thinking?! Saturday is always a non-uniform day. Instead, went to school today wearing uniform.

Damn. I was walking my way confidently until my eyes swept to the groups of student crossing my path and I was like ‘Uhuh. They are wearing civilian. What’s up with them?’ and clueless as I was, just marched past them. Just when the weird vibes was getting off me and I’m about to climb the stairs, I saw my two friends and surprisingly they were also wearing civilian. And that’s the only time I realized that I was the weird one. But I thought today was Friday! Come on!

I was dumbfounded and I had no choice but to go on with my life and trudged towards my classroom. Good thing tho, there’s my father. I let him get my pants, a t-shirt and sandals. 😉

Dang! After that, my embarrassing moment was done. Poof. 🙂 Next thing I knew, I was in a restaurant with my friends eating sushi. Again. Anyway, god help me my friends were on chatting mode again! All of them were either Omegle-ing or Chatous-ing. What a word. Pfft. 🙂 Funny thing happened, my best friend asked for a pic to the guy he’s been chatting with and she received a picture of the guy’s Ding Dong. Eck. Some horny sonofawhore. My bestie swore never to use Chatous again. Oh promises, promises. 😉

Went home with a smile on my face but ended up scowling because of my brother. He spilled my secret to dad. Traitor. Now I’m not talking to him.

One helluva day. Hope y’all have had good day too.

Happy Chinese New Year!!

At least, let me start off by greeting you a Happy Chinese New Year in chinese:

“Gong Xi Fa Cai!!” (Wishing you to be prosperous in the coming year)

And a fun way to respond to that one:

“Hong Bao Na Lai. ^^” (Red envelope please!)

Another way of saying Happy Chinese New Year is:

“XIN NIAN KUAI LE!” (新年快樂) which quite literally means Happy New Year.

Xin Nian (新年) is New Year. Xin is new and Nian is year.
Kuai le (快樂) is happiness, joy, delight, or rejoicings.

So it’s like ‘New Year Happy’ in Chinese when you literally translate it. 😀

Anyways, have fun today (Hell yeah, coz it’s holiday today!!). Wear lucky stuff and anything that could fight off bad spirits and luck! Listen to feng shui and live a prosperous year. Duuh, tho even I have doubts in those things. But whatever, there’s no harm in trying. Good luck!

Tired But Never Been Happier

Hiya! So yeah I just got home from my school and I’m so tired. And right now, I’m in my bed lying down with my feet elevated under the pillow.

This morning, I found out that I’ll be going out of the country with my dad. While we’re busy in the living room, he motioned me toward him saying that he’s got something to give. He pulled out bond papers which have those familiar airplaine symbol and yeah I got it! Airplaine tickets(that are printed in A4 papers). As much as possible though, I don’t get myself too excited. I might jinx it, if you know what I mean.

In the afternoon, I had my 1:30-4:30 straight make-up class. It’s not that boring so I survived it. Haha.

And my favorite part of the day….I played tennis with my friend, Michael. It was actually my first time to used the school’s court. It was awkward at first because students and teachers were paasing but we managed to shrug it off. Funny thing though was, we weren’t actually ‘playing’. We kept missing each ball that we had to picked it up all the time. We both end up tired from picking all those balls. It was fun and I hope we can play again next time.

What a day. Totally unexpected.

Angela Was Here

Angela, my crazy best friend, just got home from my apartment. Earlier, we went home together WALKING. I was feeling hungry that time and so she was. So we bought almost anything that we saw in our way. We ran into a friend Jen, HAHA who was busy doing her project? We asked if she could come with us but unfortunately, she still has class. Unsatisfied with our little picnic, we stop by at our former school and ate NUGGETS! It was satisfying! Then we went straight to my apartment.

Here she borrowed my laptop and browsed for photos while we make comments and constantly laughing about it. The main reason she was here was because she left her things in my apartment days ago. And that day was when we celebrated the birthday of one of my best friend, Maree. I’d like to give another post to that story. Anyways, it was getting dark so she stayed for dinner with us. Trust that girl for not worrying about her curfew. Then after a while, she said goodbye and my dad and I drove her back home.

Sometimes it’s nice having someone to talk to, even if you’re just talking shit.
