I got lucky yesterday. ^_^

I was just passing the Skyinternet booth at the 3rd floor of the engineering building when a guy (erm.. a gay? XD) asked me if I wanted anything. I was actually interested in their offer of unlimited internet for P 499 so I asked for a flyer. But he actually gave me more than that. O_O Then his supervisor (the marketing person) approached me and she told me about their DSL offer, how low the price is and their new promo with free Wifi. I was surprised, but I was really interested so I asked if I had to pay for another modem if I got the DSL, they said that it was free. My reaction was... HUH? You sure about that? O_O

Anyway, I was about to go home that time so I thanked them and then the girl (I should really stop saying girl, but... I can't remember her name! >_<) said that I should stop by later that morning because they haven't finished setting up their booth. When I said that I was already going home, she got out a sheet of contact list and asked me to write my name there and she let me pick a prize. I got the biggest prize ever (and I was their first client). Well, it wasn't much, but still... it was a prize! I felt really, really lucky. ^__________^

My mind changed when I got home though. I was really convinced we should have DSL but on the way home, I was debating with myself if it was really necessary. Sure, I'd like to have faster internet connection at half the price and get some real sleep during the mornings but then again I'll probably go crazy with the DSL and completely neglect my studies and focus on downloading. So there... in the end, I've decided that I could live with having a dial up connection. It doesn't matter if it's slow, as long as I still get what I want. ^_^

Although I'd really like a WiFi card right now... :D Must abuse... erm... I meant use, the universities facilities. XD I should remember to ask Dad to buy one when he goes back to Cali. :P Would you believe he scored a cute laptop for a good price? Nyaaa!!! I wanna see it... T_T

Yay for techie daddies! XD

I've got evil nails... >:)

Mwahahaha! XD

So there was frosted chestnut nail polish lying around. I painted my finger nails and now... they look evil, like I'm some sort of villain. XD

Yesterday was completely exhausting. =_= My mom dragged me into one of those free seminars where they teach you how to make things you can sell. I took the soap making class and Mom took the virgin coconut oil class. Registration was such a pain! T_T There were a LOT of people and they didn't expect it. I had to wait for 2 hours in line just to register. I was ready to go home at that time... my legs were getting numb from standing. Plus people were cutting in line and stuff... it was annoying. And I had to wait for 3 hours before class started. =_= Heh... the things I do for my mom.

Waaahhh!! I saw Dax Chee on tv last night! Ahahaha~! I was beaming when I proudly told my mom that I know him. ^_____________^ And I'm so glad that my Mom is smart, I wouldn't be here without her. Last night, we were quizzing each other on national things, like the national bird, fruit, flower, animal, heroes, etc. Do you still remember those? :P

By the way, while we're on the subject... do you know who Emilio Jacinto is? I keep confusing his attributes with Emilio Aguinaldo, but I know he's a general. I just forgot the other details of his life. And since today is "National Heroes Day", do you mind telling me who your favorite Filipino hero is? :)

Mine is Gregorio del Pilar, because he gave his life trying to protect the future of the Philippines. I loved the story about the Battle of Tirad Pass. It was inspirational. :)

What do you do when you're sick?

Get addicted to something of course!

Mwahaha!!! Introducing my creations...

This is my doll interpretation of myself. My first superhero... love the cute penguin! Whee~! Look at all those colors!

Want to create cute little dollies like these? Click here!

The first one is... well.. cute, just like me... XD and the next ones were edited using photoshop. Ooohhh.. I suck at layering, I couldn't make a decent layer. >.<;;;

And I'm still sick, I feel awful. This has been going on for 6 days. I don't know if my medications are working, I'm still coughing, having this runny nose and wheezing like crazy. And it's not just your common cold... it's a lot more than that. T_T

I guess I should have tried to de-stress myself before this happened. Last week, my stress levels were high... according to the stress tests I've taken, and I'd like to post their links but I forgot the addresses. =_=

Now I shall go back to resting... Hah... ~_~

ERG Fight!

Hooray for a very successful Alumni Homecoming~! I was able to take a few pictures before we went home. Food was okay, I still love Jade Valley's buchi (I ate 3.. XD).

Yes.. we know we're pretty... XD

Click here for more pictures.

I watched "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" yesterday with my mom. It was a funny, cute, and LSS-inducing film. :P

And the squirrels... ohmygosh!!! I was squealing in my seat while the squirrels were shown... EEEEKKKKKKK!!! Cuteness overload! XD I want one!!! I just hope that they don't think I'm a bad nut... :P

There was also one time when I laughed at one scene and I noticed that I was the only one laughing. I heard my laughter echo in the theater...*^^*

An embarassing yet funny thing happened when the movie was finished. Mom was wearing a large scarf (because it was so cold in the theater) and we went to the restroom. While I was unbuttoning my pants to pee when she suddenly screamed, "I left my bag in my seat!" I was so surprised that I asked her, "WHAT?!" and quickly got out of the restroom and dashed towards our seats. I was already running in the lobby when she yelled "Oh.. it's here!". I was like, "WHAT?!?!?! Are you sure?!". Then I noticed that my one of my buttons was unfastened... Oh shoot!!!!! O_O I quickly entered the restroom. Thank God for long t-shirts and TWO-buttoned pants! ^^; It so happened that because her scarf was so big, she couldn't feel where her bag was. (It was right on her shoulder... -_-;;;) Anyway, I asked for ice cream when we got out. That's her punishment. :P I got strawberry ice cream~! Yay! XD

Chocolate factory... don't close on me! >_<

I have been pining to watch "Charlie and the Chocolate factory" eversince the first day of showing. I have seen the movie clips and the making. I must say... I love all the chocolates! And the cute squirrels! SQUIRRELS!!! XD

Anyway, I went to the mall yesterday to watch the movie but to my dismay I was late for the first showing! O_O;; NOOO! And the next showing would be at 2:40pm. I was there around 12noon. >_< I can't possibly wait for 2 hours alone and doing nothing at the mall... I'll go insane! @_@

And so much for trying to go on a diet, yesterday I had crackers for breakfast, ice cream and Kornets for lunch and stewed pork for dinner. *sarcastic mode on* Wow... No wonder I felt so energetic yesterday. >_> *sarcastic mode off*

It was a sad day to go to the mall, not only did I not get to watch Charlie. I also didn't get to buy the skirt I was eyeing a couple of days ago. Yes... it was a very sad day indeed. T_T

With that said, hopefully the factory won't close it's doors till next week... when I've got the leisure time to watch it. Right now, I've got my hands full. I've got a report and schematic diagram to pass on Thursday, write-ups on Friday, a formal report next Monday (or was it Thursday? Must check the correct date... =_=) and two exams on Tuesday. Plus the big Chem exam on September. Now where can I squeeze Charlie? ;_;

Wanna hug me? <3


*HUGS* TOTAL!
give kitkatchan more *HUGS*
Get hugs of your own

Hmm... I'm planning to make a new layout. Yeah... you read that right. A NEW LAYOUT. :D I'm not sure who's going to be in it though, but rest assured it's going to be an anime character. It's not that I'm tired looking at Yuki's face, because that would never, ever - raised to the infinity - happen. ;) It's just that, I think it's time for a change and I have tons of layout ideas/pictures/other stuff to share. The only problem is... I have forgotten how to create an html. :P I've got to review my notes. ^^; I know there are programs that would make my life a lot easier by giving me the automatic result rather than doing things manually, but I really want to learn the tags and other things I'll be using in the layout. And I also know there are a lot of things I could incorporate in a webpage, other than basic html... but we'll see about that, ne? Starting from scratch is harder than it seems. ^_^

But remember... I'm only planning. So don't expect anything anytime soon. As far as I'm concerned, I'm doing this for fun. It would probably take me a few weeks, months or even years. ^^; I just wrote it down so I'll have some goal in mind. ^_~

I just had a nightmare... O_O

"In my dream, I was a supplier of fake money. I was supplying fake money to my neighbor with the exchange rate of (Php 1,000 = Php 100,000) because she used them for gambling. Then she won in one of her bets and there were Php 500 around our house (my neighbor scattered the money around us). My mom just got home with my godmother when she caught me picking up the Php 500 bills. She asked me why was I picking those up and I just ignored her. Then someone went beside my godmother and talked about gambling, and my godmother casually said that people were gambling in their own houses (and she was carrying a tin box filled with black/grayish beans that were as hard as stone). My neighbor gave me Php 1,000 to get her more fake bills. I took the money and went inside the house. When I got in, the news on tv were talking about corruption and there were police people outside our house looking for me (because I was suspected of giving out fake bills). I went inside my room and was changing my clothes when my mom learned about my secret and rushed inside. She banged on my door and when she kicked it, I woke up."

I was so surprised when I woke up. I would never trade my values and principles for money. I'm scared that it would haunt me back three folds (karma). >_<;; After realizing that it was just a dream, I prayed so hard that I wouldn't end up like that and I prayed for guidance. ^_^

I guess the Raul Roco's death yesterday really got to me and with all these issues of corruption, stealing votes, and drugs. To tell the truth, I'm still shocked about that news. T_T I like Raul Roco because he's smart, honest (at least a lot more honest than our current president) and had values. I really believed in him. It's just too bad that he got sick. :(

I haven't talked about today's current issues in this blog because it's too depressing but now, I've got to speak up. I have reasons to believe our current president cheated in the elections and that she used the government's money to fund her own campaign. But I'm still torn between wanting her to step down or to stay in that position. I want her to step down because she's doing a lousy job, all her reforms don't have any substance and now she's pushing for a Constitutional Assembly that would most probably put the corrupt government officials in a place of power. I want her to stay because if she was ousted or if she resigned, our economy would plunge down. Plus the fact that there is no "lesser evil" in this case because all the opposition's candidates for the position are also corrupt and would only use the government for their own interests.

Today's dilemma... it haunts me in my dreams. >_<; I believe our country still has a chance to rise from this challenge, if people would stick with their own values and principles, if they took their responsibility seriously, and if they let their conscience be their guide. ^_^

Oh how cute~!

I just love the pairing Yuki x Tohru. And now I know how they would look like if they had a kid, I'm more convinced that they should end up together. ^___^


Awwww!!! <3<3<3

Off to the fanfic world! Mwahahaha~! XD
