Helloooo Cedric Diggory!


Ok, so I knew Cedric Diggory was supposed to be "handsome", that's why Cho's gaga over him.
But I NEVER thought he'd be this handsome.....................
This is his best pic I've ever seen.
YEY CEDRIC!
I'm a Hufflepuff.
I always get Hufflepuff in Sorting hat quizzes...
This just proves I'm a pushover...
Kidding!

Freaky Li'l Creepy Crawlies

I was sitting here, staring into space, when something rushed by. I jerked my head to the direction it went. I didn't see anything. So I went back to staring into space.

Again.

Something whooshed pass.

A lizard.

On my bed!

I hate crawling things. Ok, I like babies. They're cute when they crawl. But insects and reptiles and amphibians...EUGH!

I hate cockroaches!

So anyway, I'm just procrastinating again. It's 10 in the evening, and I've got a 9-page Math reviewer to answer. Hell, I'm gonna flunk.

Well, hopefully not.

I need 183 points tomorrow. I need it!

But it's just that, with the break looming just out of my reach, I just can't concentrate on anything! When I try to, my mind just keeps drifting off to things I wanna do during the break.

SOMEBODY SAVE ME!!!

This is Getting Harmful

I know there are a lot of people like me out there.

That's why I'm turning this computer off.

The blogging bug hit me last Tuesday, and I never found the cure.

It's that phase again, when I can't let one day pass without posting an entry-- and usually long ones! I've been having this "syndrome" since I started blogging. The other "syndrome" is my Diary Syndrome. It's when I can't let a day pass without writing in my diary. Now, I'm in my Blogger Syndrome, and my diary is rotting on my bedside table.

As I've mentioned (many many times) before, I have exams coming up, and one is in 11 hours.

And I haven't finished yet, not even half, I think.

I keep on looking at my blog.

I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO TURN OFF THIS COMPUTER.

When I get up, 4 hours from now.

Good night!

A Birthday Greeting

Ok, so he's not related to me in any way, but he's one fifth (now 1/4, darn Bry!) of the boyband (yikes! corniks!) that had a big part in my life. They did covers, both super cheesy they make me puke and ones that I can listen to forever. But of course, their best music are their original songs.

This band added a hit of craziness in my chaotic grade 5 year (I was a crazy 12-year-old), and because of them, I have one of my bestfriends now, and I met my fellow GWALLERS (crazy fans, talented stalkers) whom I so want to hang out with again.

My so called "man of my dreams" was one of them, and although he turned out to be gay (not really that surprised, because everyone says he looked gay, I just refused to accept it), I still love them to bits. Of course, one of them has the best singing voice I've ever heard in the whole world.

I rooted for them from the time they were innocent teens thrust out into the harsh pop world (that was back in 1999). Now, when three of them got married, two have babies, one is engaged and one is gay and one married member with two kids quit, although the hype that I used to feel for them are partially diminished, I still love them.

Ok, I'm ending this endless introduction. It's 7pm, I have FINALS tomorrow!!!!

Happy 27th Birthday Nix!

Audioblogs and Soggy Cookies

It's 2am and I'm supposed to be asleep now. i have to get up early tomorrow to go to my relative's house and do something--I don't know what. My dad said it's something about dusting off bad luck...

I hope it works.

Anyway, I made chocolate chip oatmeal cookies today! The recipe said it's "just like Mrs. Field's" but I guess my execution went wrong so it's all soft and crumbly... But my brother says it tastes good so it's ok. He wants more chocolate chips though.

So as you can see, I've tried audioblogging! It's really cool! You can blog anytime, anywhere with just your phone! But the thing is, it's so expensive if you live outside the US. I have to pay for international calls. It's 40 cents per minute, and that converts to around 21 pesos per minute. I made a 4-minute call awhile ago so... Almost a hundred for one audioblog entry! Ok, I'm gonna do that only once a month. Or I'd have to get Sun Cellular. Their rates are 10 cents per minute, much cheaper.

Today is a day of creations for me. After creating an audioblog, I joined National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo)! It's for a cause. It's for people who, even one split-second in their life, thought to themselves, "I'm going to write a novel someday."

Now that sounds just like me.

Starting November 1, all the applicants will start writing their novel. No artsy-wartsy needed. You can write off the top of your head! The only requirement is that you write 50,000 words or more by November 30. That's the end. There will be winners, and who knows, you might get discovered and get published! There are a lot of people who, through NaNoWriMo, got book deals! Can you believe that?! Go on! Take the challenge!

And so, after joining up, I thought, "I need a place where I could post my novel." So I created a new blog! It's :+:SuPeRhEr0 sLaCkEr:+:! I'll be posting starting... some time soon! Come drop by, I'll let you know once I've started posting. Comments on the story would be much appreciated!

Overexcited Harry Potter Babble

this is an audio post - click to play



Omg, my very first audioblog entry! Sorry if no one can understand me. I'll speak in english next time.

Warning: my spoken english SUCKS. I'm better off writing!

Oktober Fest ---> Where Where We Should Be

It's finally OCTOBER!!! The sound of Halloween cheers that I've been faintly hearing for some time now is getting louder by the minute.

But it's not only that.

OKTOBER FEST is here!!!


"San Miguel Oktober Fest..
Raise your mugs this is the best!
Tayo na't magparty na
Oktober Fest na!"

That song keeps on running through my brain very often these days.

For those who don't know, San Miguel is a brand of beer, well, alcoholic drinks. And since high school, I've been wondering what goes on in this "Oktober Fest" they kept on singing about in the radio (I mean the jingle).

My idea of it is that in Boracay, where all the "cool" and "wild" and "sexy" beach bums hang out during breaks, they have these all-night parties by the sea and they give out FREE BEER! How great would that feel, partying in you bikinis/trunks/whatever drinking bottomless beer? You can do whatever you want. puke wherever you want and evevryone'll just laugh off all your mishaps because all of you are pissed as hell.

One time, our teacher asked us what we think freedom is. A lot of people said, "Boracay". Yeah, it's the place to be, tehy say. You can walk naked and no one will care because tehre prolly is someone at the other end of the shore walking naked too.

Why is this so special? Well, because here in the Philippines, people are still actually conservative. I admit that I'm one of those, but not that much. I'm trying to keep an open mind. If you go wild like that somewhere else, you'd be dubbed as sluty. Minis too short? Everything's too short.

Boracay=Freedom --> this is because Bora, as we call it, is a tourist spot so the people there are liberated aand of course, young people are abundant. No old people, more fun!

I've never been there, but I want to some time, with my friends and we'd go CRAZY!!!

Bad Day - Daniel Powter

Where is the moment we need at the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)
Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
====================================================

Isn't his name like, Daniel Radcliffe and Harry Potter combined? Hahahaha I just kinda find that funny... It's a good song, one of the Soundtracks of My Life. I'd compile an album of that. So far there are at least 5 songs in already.

The song just makes me feel better. Yeah, it speaks of someone who's had a bad day, but the melody is soothing. The melody kind of says, "Don't worry, everything's gonna be OK." And the lyrics is nice. It's not the typical angst-ridden ones we hear often from punk bands. Not that I don't like those, I mean, I love Simple Plan and it's nice to scream your vocal cords off to let out the steam. But sometimes, we just gotta let the tears flow, you know? I got an "inspirational" message awhile ago and it said that once in a while, we should just let it out. Watch a sappy movie, read a book, sing a sad song and just cry. I was thinking, I haven't done that in a while. Haha! It's not that I like crying. It's just that, three months ago, I cried so often, loneliness and adjustment issues. Now, because of all the health-hazardous schoolwork that's given to us, all the feelings of loneliness, of breaking down, just got pushed aside. And that's not good, because when a moment of tranquility comes, all those feelings would come barreling back like the Hogwarts Express and hit you hard. Sometimes, a good cry is all it takes to be happy.

So now I'm thinking of watching A Walk to Remember again... Hmm... Tissues on the ready!

Burning in HELL 2

Your Hidden Talent

You are both very knowledgeable and creative.
You tend to be full of new ideas and potential - big potential.
Ideas like yours could change the world, if you build them.
As long as you don't stop working on your dreams, you'll get there.
I sure hell hope that I really do have BIG potential! Because I'm losing hope in myself. The world became a darker place - all because of stupid Fil.
We had our second long exam awhile ago. It was for 40 points, passing was 35. Guess what i got.
Thirty-freakin'-four!!!
I mean, GAWD, 1 point?!
So anyway, our prof made us go to this Fil poetry reading before, and he said that whoever goes, he'll add like, 10 points in the long test. I don't think he added it yet, so I still have hope! If not, I need to get at least 80% in the finals. This is just so IMPOSSIBLE!!! I mean, I didn't even reach 70% of the test awhile ago and that was about stories that I have already read. In the finals, they're gonna give us a new story and a new poem to rub our brains to. So how the hell am I going to do that. I don't even understand half the shit I answered awhile ago.
Call me stupid (I know I am), but what the hell is ideological apparatus blah? Ok, so we've discussed that and I have a vague idea what it is, but I swear, I didn't understand anything. I mean, how can a basurero and a chopped off leg with a Nike shoe got to do with sexual orientation? Please, anybody up there, help me out because I'm BURNING IN HELL.

Nocturnal

Ok, I'm here once again! After almost a month of not posting anything... For my precious readers, I offer you these posts. Please bear with me for only nonsense is coming out of my brain right now. :)

So it's 1:30 am, I've got classes at 7am, my eyes are drooping already, but I'm still not asleep. Why? Don't ask me, I don't know either. Maybe because of the tea I drank? It's proven that tea will keep you awake longer than caffeinated coffee. Or maybe because my my internal clock is all muddled up that it says bedtime is at 2am.

So anyway, I'm watching Desperate Housewives right now. I'm just gonna finish this and I'm off to dreamyland!

Speaking of these popular TV series, whoever's reading this, what's your favorite series? Mine is Smallville. Ok, Tom Welling being really hot is a BIG factor, but I just like the fact that it's not another ordinary drama we see on tv. It's got supernatural stuff. We're talking about the young SUPERMAN here!!! Charmed, of course, is my next favorite. Since I was a baby, I've always dreamt of being a witch, hence, my addiction to Harry Potter. All that magic... Oh, I wish I could be them. If only it's not a sin.

So yeah, that. I'm getting really drowsy now. So whoever likes watching TV, here is the list of available series:

Scrubs season 1
Southpark Season 1,2 & 5
The OC Season 1 & 2 (but only vcd quality)

Upcoming:
Smallville 1 & 2
Spongebob Squarepants seasons 1 & 2
One Tree Hill seasons 1 & 2
Mr. Bean the Animated Series

So there. Give the upcoming a couple more weeks and they'll be done. Just tag if you're interested. :) Nyt!
