Playing Our Song

Hello everyone! How are you all? I'm just fine. A bit happy because there are no classes today! Today is Bonifacio Day in the Philippines. It is in honor of Andres Bonifacio, one of our national heroes who strived hard and fought for the freedom of our country! I am also happy because tomorrow is finally December and there are already a few days to go before Christmas! 25 days to go! Our Christmas party is already 18 days to go! I can't wait, not literally though..hehe.. :D I can wait, of course! Things in life are worth waiting!

I'm addicted again to a certain song! Playing our Song by Claude Kelly! You can hear it on my playlist below. Claude Kelly is actually a song writer! I heard, he's the one who wrote Leona Lewis' song, Forgive Me. He is such a great songwriter and singer! I also like his song, Keeper, or is it Keep Her. Oh, well. Ah, yeah..it is probably Keep Her. I think I have blogged about this already a long time ago. I kind'a said that this song makes me happy..hehe.. :D

I woke up very late today, at about 9:30am! I was so tired because I slept very late yesterday, and was already past midnight. We watched a movie, Rush Hour 2, a movie starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. I bet you all know that movie! We watched that movie on HBO. Before Rush Hour 2 was Kung Fu Panda, but I wasn't able to watch that. I bet that's also a great movie to watch!

Nothing much happened today. All that we did was take care of my baby brother, doing my chores, use the Internet for a while, and study for our exams tomorrow. I'm trying to limit my computer time already because I need to be more serious now since it is now our 3rd Grading period, and that means there is 1 more grading period till the end of the school year. I need to maintain my 1st-honor ranking until the finals, to still be a full scholar!

I'm glad that I have already studied a bit for our exams tomorrow! I'm a bit sure that I would answer most, or even all, correctly.

Friday is our "Judgment Day", the "moment of truth", and whatever I or you would call it. It is because that day would be our distribution of cards, and announcing of the honors for the grading period. I'm a bit nervous already! I better keep my hopes up, hoping I would still be a top honor student! :)

I thank you all for commenting on my posts and tagging on my tagboard! I'll reply to them if I have time! I'll also comment on your posts if I have something to say about it, and I'll tag on your tagboard to leave some messages! :D

Let me share to you this quote/picture before I'll end my post:

Future Love

Hi everyone! It has been a very tiring week for me! Finally, I could rest! We had reviews for the exams and they were pretty much hard, well, not all of them! The hardest was Computer, since the questions are kind'a confusing, I mean, some choices in Matching Type do not match the ones that need to be matched! I just hope that my grades wouldn't become low!

By the way, the title is a song by Kristinia DeBarge, "Future Love". I like it very much! I am once again a little addicted to it! The singer of it has a great voice, but I wonder why she's not really very popular. OH, well. There are actually two versions of this song, once by Kristinia DeBarge and the other by Varsity Fanclub.

I'm going to talk about here basically what happened this week.

Just like what I have said, we had reviews and exams. The exam was pretty much fine. Eventhough I had a hard time with one subject, I'm still a bit happy, because, at least it's only one subject that I had a hard time. And that subject is actually just a 50% part of a grade in a report card. The other is Technical Writing, which is a very easy subject. Hands-on activities are also one that makes my grade in computer a little higher! That's my favorite thing about our Computer subject! I'm a "computer addict"!

It rained hard this week. The never-ending rain stopped just yesterday afternoon. I was happy because we didn't have class last Wednesday. All I did was study a little, taking pictures, Plurking, and Facebooking. It was so cold! I wore a jacket the whole day. The following day, many were absent. Maybe they were sick or something. The exam schedule was pushed through the next day. Too bad we didn't have enough vacation! But we will now till Monday, since Monday is Bonifacio Day and it's a non-working holiday. Classes, and our exams, will resume on Tuesday. So, there would be enough time to study.

Now, I really should learn not to forget to bring some things at home or at school, since it gives me consequences, like having to go back to school to get my notebook I forgot to bring home a while ago. It made me very tired having to ride jeepneys, and being really careful passing on the road. I wonder why I have "short-term memory loss" sometimes. Oh, well.

THis may just be it! I'll share you this pic before I'll end this post!

Well, that's it for now! :)

Weekend's Here!

Hello everyone! Good day! How are you all? My day's getting a little bit better than my previous days. Nothing much really happened. It's once again gloomy today here in our place. There's nonstop raining, but it's just a shower, not really a hard rain. The sun is covered by dark clouds. It's quiet in our neighborhood. These are why it's kind'a boring here. The only sounds I here are music I'm playing and listening to, and my family members talking, oh, and also the television. One of the things I enjoy doing now is to blog about what happened recently.

I woke up at 9 in the morning, and I actually thought I woke up at 6, since it looks like it. I checked my cellphone to see if I have new and unread messages. I opened a message from my friend, saying that she requested for load. Since she is asked for an amount of load that's beyond my balance, I ignored it. I felt sorry. Next, I decided to text an unknown number who just texted me yesterday. I guessed it was my friend, the boy one, because of his style of the message. He did reply that it was really him! When I asked if this was his number, he did not reply anymore. Oh, well.

When my mother woke up, she immediately told me to do an errand, wash some clothes. Then cook rice. I was still lying down in bed. I got a bit irritated, and i stretched the bad feeling away, and was gone. This is really what happens every morning of a weekend, unless I wake up late and all the morning chores would be finished by her! I would be wicked doing that!

Usual things happened so far!

Let me tell you about yesterday. I was late in going to school. I got a pink slip for the first time! I was so mad at my brother at that time! I blame him for being late! Now there are 2 more pink slips to go for me and my parents to have a conference with our prefect of discipline! Now this worries me a lot! I really don't want to go the prefect of discipline! I don't want to be scolded for being late, especially if it isn't my fault. It's so unfair why we have to wait for our stupid brother to finish getting ready before we can go. I was really, really mad! So mad that I want my brother to get lost! I couldn't explain my anger at that time! Well, of course, it's just the first time we're late. But he would always be like that! He's the problem in the family! For the past few days, when we rode jeepneys (without my brother), we used to be early in going to school! One time, when our brother was with us while waiting for the jeepney, we didn't find jeepneys to ride, fast. We were early at finishing getting ready. Looks like our brother is really the one that makes us late, or at least, almost late! He ruined my life a little bit! I could, maybe, imagine a life without him. But, oh well, he's always there, and we just need to accept his bad attitude. He doesn't want to be disciplined anyway. I think most of you are lucky to not have a brother like that! Of course, I still consider myself lucky to have a brother like that, but not so much. I'm so sorry to break my anger here. Here is the only place I can say to you my feelings, angry, sad, or happy.

Well, enough for those bad thoughts. I was a little bit happy yesterday because one of my friends wrote me a letter! It says about me being his idol that I am the 1st honor in our class, and also, eventhough we aren't close, I still befriend him. I'm so happy to read or hear those words from him, how simple they are but they are really meaningful to me. I consider most simple messages meaningful. A simple thank you, or a simple appreciation. Just like what my friend said to me, "thank you for everything", I already consider it good for me!

I forgot to blog the other day about my new LCD of my laptop! I'm so happy that my laptop's already well, not bothering me anymore. I thanked my father so much for it! I'm already using it now!

This is so true! :)

Well, that's it for now! Have a nice day! :D

Don't Have to be Alone

Hello everyone! Not so usual that I would blog on this day, isn't it? I decided to blog today because I feel like it and I would also have something to tell you about. "Don't have to be alone" is a lyric from Matt Palmer's song, Alone. I like this song so much because it has great beat and gives a good message! Nowadays, for me, songs that give good messages are not so usual already. Popular songs are those that are not decent, like those that have bad words in them. That's why I'm liking this song! It says,

"Take a breath
Close your eyes
Believe in me jump in, let go
Hold my hand
Girl, don't be shy
Sometimes you have to lose control
You've got to trust
We can try
To see how much this love can grow
If you look
Then you will find
That you don't have to be alone"

"You don't have to be alone"!

Let's move on to what happened these past few days. These days, we weren't drove by our father to school, because of his arthritis. Instead, we rode jeepneys going to school and going home. We would once again meet different faces along the way. I'm glad we weren't late in going to school! We could finally leave our brother behind when he's still not finish getting ready for school while we were already finished! My father's condition is already getting a little better today. We were already drove to school.

Last Monday was the flag ceremony. We were early, as usual. Many were late. It was announced that this week is the Book Week and English Week. Quiz bees and spelling bees were held. I was one of the contestants of the quiz bee. Sadly, we lost. I just tried to think that the glory wasn't for us after all. I stored a lot of stock knowledge in my brain, but suddenly forgot some of those. In such luck, my group members weren't the most intelligent in their year levels. So, it was a little obvious that we wouldn't win. Those who won, obviously, had some of the smartest students. I was so sad deep inside, that God didn't let us win it. I know that He has other great plans for me, but it still hurts to think about not getting the thing we want. Today, just this afternoon, was the Spelling Bee. I regretted about joining the Quiz Bee instead of it, because as I see it, I would really get a high score in the contest, since the questions are easier than that of Quiz bee. I guess I made the WRONG choice. Oh, well. That's life! It's CRUEL! It's like a game, just like what my friend said, "for me, life is like a game, we win, we lose." (maybe I rephrased it a little.)

I wonder why this November, a lot of bad things happened to me and other people. I think, maybe, it's because of the Friday the 13th in the month. I don't really want to believe that, that day would be bad luck, because it's my mother's birthday. Even my father considers it good luck. But just has timing that what would happen on that particular day would be bad or good. For the past few years, I couldn't really recall some really bad things that happened on a Friday the 13th. I consider really January as bad luck, since I always get absent on that month, because of fever. I hate it that why does it have to come on that month! I wish I won't be absent on that month next year. One absent means a lot of activities to miss.

Well, that's it for now! Bye! :D

Make it Last

Hello everyone! How are you all? I'm so sorry for not frequently updating my blog. It's because I couldn't really think of a great topic to talk about in my blog, and also that I'm so busy, tired and needed rest. This week and last week were so tiring, because of all the writing we did. The title of my post is actually, again, a song I like, or even love! Make it Last by Tyrese Ft. Jewel. If we could just hold on, I know that we could make it last! :) I was searching for new rhythm and blues songs of 2009, and I found this song, listened to it, and liked it! I'll tell you what happened these past few weeks.

These past two weeks were mostly tiring, like what I said, because of pressured writing, since we wrote a lot of things and it usually won't be finished at the time, because we still need to perfect our work, design it, and a lot more, maybe, make it neat and clean. I don't benefit from this because I usually make erasures and makes my work a little dirty, and may be given low score. Now it worries me if I could still maintain my ranking for the 2nd, 3rd, and maybe the 4th and final grading. As I see it, I am getting low scores in Chemistry, Geometry, and Filipino, because they were the ones who were really strict on neatness, and they usually give concept writing activity that takes very long to write. It may not be long to write for some, because they usually make shortcuts, and that's also the one thing that makes an activity's score low. Me, I really make my work very long so that it would be given big points, but the ERASURES ruins it all! Now I'm getting worried because some of my classmates have higher scores than me in a few activities. It makes me even more worried today, since it is already 3rd grading and I really would need to be more serious in order to maintain my ranking until the finals! I'm glad that we still did little activities today, and there are still more activities to make bawi my scores. I just hope I would, if possible, make all of them perfect! I'll try to discipline my hand to not make erasures this time, and make its handwriting great! This adjustment is hardwork!

Last Wednesday, late at night, around 9:48pm, earthquake came to our place. I was using the computer at that time. I was astonished when I was suddenly rocked on my chair by the earthquake! I thought it was something, something scary, but when my mother said it was an earthquake, I was relieved, and kind'a liked my experience of the said earthquake, since it's my first time to notice it and feel one of those. Some things also in our house fell! The earthquake lasted for about 30 seconds. Glad we were safe! The following day, my classmates talked about it, some felt it, some did not. But as I see it, most of us felt the earthquake. Some did not because they were, maybe, asleep already at that time.

Last Wednesday also, we had our presentation for our Physical Education, Health, and Music (PEHM). All of our classmates' presentations were breathtaking! I love their presentations, with all the cheering, shouting, and the like! For us, our presentation, as I see it, wasn't so great. We did not practice well because our cassette was always borrowed by someone else, our assigned choreographer keeps on forgetting to bring the CD. My group members were not so confident about the presentation, and were having second thoughts on their mind whether they would push through or not to present. One member of mine really wants us to present, despite our consequences. My other 2 members don't really like to present. They fight because of it. The member who really wants to present cried. I was a little annoyed by that attitude of hers, but it did push through our presentation, since we don't like to see her like that. These two members of mine were already contented with our 50 points. Me and the other member really wants it to push through because we, obviously, weren't contented with the 50 points. Well, we did present! Thank God! 40 points were added to 50 points, and our total points is 90! It wasn't a perfect score, but I was still happy because that amount of points is already very high for us! Thanks to my emotional member, we got this high score! Me and that member weren't supposed to worry about the presentation, because no matter what, our grade in PEHM for the report card would always be 100! It's the 2 other members' grade we're worried about, since they don't have extracurriculars to make their grade 100 'forever'. They, as well, were very happy! We learned to be more confident!

Some of my classmates, the boys who are having behavioral and academic problems, are already being warned that they would be kicked out of the school. They are already being consulted by our Guidance Counselor. They were punished to clean our school from 5 to 7 in the morning, for 3 days! I couldn't really believe 100% that they would be kicked out, since as I see it, they were just making drama of it. Of course, I saw that they were already given disciplinary measures, and are already signs that they would be kicked out or expelled. But the teachers didn't announce it yet that we would already say goodbye to them. They said it but I don't know if they are really serious. I'm a kind of person that does not believe easily everything she sees and hears.

In Friends For Sale in Facebook, I am already getting very expensive! I'm around 71 million already! It's because my friends keep on buying me. They buy me because I kind'a asked them to. It was really hard to ask them, since most of them don't have enough money. Only a few have lots of money. I really want my value to reach 100 million! This game is fun!

Recently, I have been searching about iPod. I saw that they are really expensive, being 3,200+ pesos the cheapest, and around 15,000 the most expensive! It discouraged me already not to wish for it anymore. Besides, it's just for listening to music. I'll try to be more contented with my life and what I have!

Let me share you this picture:

The message put there is kind'a true, but it seldom applies to me anyway. :) I like the design of the picture, with my long time wished iPod!

Well, that would be all for today everyone! My post is already getting very long, the result of being missing for a few days! Have a nice day! :)

Straight Through My Heart <3

Hey everyone! I'm back! How are you all? I'm fine, as usual, eventhough this week had been very tiring and worrisome! The title is actually a song, Straight Through My Heart by Backstreet Boys! It's another new favorite song of mine! I heard and discovered it on Channel V. I had just observed that songs on this channel are great when it's morning, but I don't know in the afternoon because I don't watch it at that time.

My week was tiring because for the whole week, we kept on writing, as in we wrote a lot and made our hands ache! And also, it was worrisome to understand the lessons well because we could not really understand well the lessons if there are no lectures, and also that I am worrying of my grades with this new system! I just keep on hoping that I would still be the top first honor till the final grading! I hope I could survive this hellic school system of keep-on-writing-a-lot-of-things! We write things on this activity sheet, eventhough it is already on the book! It's called concept writing >_<. For me, it was really no need to copy or write all these things on the activity sheet! They said that we would just put some important words, but when we do, they would not really give a perfect score to it! I was kind'a mad at the school for implementing it! Well, of course, they said that it would teach us to be more hardworking and not lazy, but how about the understanding of the lesson? the hands? the grades? and all that? Most of us could not survive a discussion without lectures, right?

So, as you see, I'm not really in a good mood this week. Our new school system that's giving me a headache and a handache, and our laptop that's not working well and heat's me up! Now we're back to fighting over the computer! >_<

Let me tell you a good thing TODAY! We went to the mall, at Gaisano, to buy some things, shoes, shirts, clothes, and a lot more! We also went to Chowking to buy some delicious food! I'm so happy with my new shoes, shorts, and pants! It's like it's Christmas already, when we buy a lot of neat things! And speaking of Christmas, I'm so excited for it! I'm excited for the drawlot, the decorating of our classroom, the party, the new things, and lots, lots more! Finally, the year's almost ending! Plus, we're almost the end of the school year! Wo0h..! I know it's too early for me to be happy about it, but I just can't help but tell it to you all! :)

My post is getting long already!

But before I end it, let me share to you these lyrics of my favorite song...

Straight through my heart
A single bullet got me
I can't stop the bleeding, oh
Straight through my heart
She aimed and she shot me
I just can't believe it, oh
No I can't resist
And I can't be here
I just can't escape this love
Straight through my heart
(Soldier down)
My heart
(Soldier down)
My heart

I'm kind'a addicted to this song! :D

Well, that's it for now! Thanks for reading! :)

Vanilla Twilight

Hello to all! How are you? I'm fine, as usual. The title of this post is once again, a song I've recently heard and liked! Vanilla Twilight by Owl City!

Today is Monday but we don't have any classes because it's All Souls'/Saints' Day. There are still people who would visit to their passed-away loved ones and pray for them. During this day, I woke up late, used the computer, as usual, but I did not use Facebook very much now. Instead, I listened to music, browsed through some cheesy pick-up lines, reblogged and reblogged on Tumblr (so that my tumblarity won't drop), checked my Plurk, and a lot more!

I listened to random songs lately about love. Some of them were PS: I'm Still Not Over You by Rihanna, Vanilla Twilight by Owl City, Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney, She Wolf by Shakira, One Time by Justin Bieber, and a lot, lot more! I also listened to Lost in Love by Air Supply, an old song I like :). I've updated my Mixpod Playlist, made it smaller and less tracks, but maybe as time passes by, adding and adding some more songs, this playlist would once again have a lot of tracks like my previous one.

This time, I did something new, browsing through cheesy pick-up lines! I've found a lot of them at pinaslink.com! The thing that made me browse some of them is that one of my textmates keeps on sending me some of these, and I kind'a liked it because of their message and their cheesyness! Here are some of them:

1) Kumain ka ba ng asukal? - ang tamis kasi ng ngiti mo.*
2) I'm a bee - can you be my honey?
3) May lahi ka bang keyboard? - type kasi kita*
4) Papupulis kita! - ninakaw mo kasi puso ko*
5) Are you a dictionary? - coz you add meaning to my life
6) I lost my number - can I have yours?
7) I forgot your name - can I call you mine?
8) Ice ka ba? - crush kita, okay lang?*
9) Sweswertihin ka sa pagibig ngayong taon - pag naging akin ka*
10) Meralco ka ba? - pag ngumiti ka kasi may spark*

Well, there are some that non-Filipinos would understand, like the ones in Tagalog or Taglish (marked by asterisks *). Too bad I'm not subscribed to unlimited texting anymore for me to send these to my friends and textmates!

I reblogged and posted a lot of things on Tumblr, too, including about the cheesy pick-up lines. I reblogged love quotes, not because I can relate to them, but because I like the colors and design of the graphic :D. Colorful and attractive graphics, and also graphics that have inspirational and love quotes, attract me. I am somewhat a visual learner in some situations :). The reason why I tried to be active on Tumblr is because, like what I said, I want to keep my tumblarity up. I still don't know what makes it go up or down.

In Plurk, I haven't updated much on it anymore, after my constant changing of my plurk layout. I'm pretty sure that my Karma wouldn't go down with that :].

In Facebook, I had chatted with my long lost classmate! We haven't talked and seen in about 6 years now. I'm glad she still remembers me, unlike another previous classmate of mine who has forgotten me already. As usual, we asked each other how we are, asked where we are now or which school we are attending already, talked about various things, and a lot more.

And speaking of classmates, yesterday, I saw my previous classmate at the cemetery we went. He is still the same old person I knew back then, always playing his PSP, wearing his cap, and the like. I've noticed, there are some people who would not really change :). But I don't know if I've changed or not.

Have you noticed that I don't blog much anymore? It's because of ordinary reasons, busy school activities, laziness, lack of inspiration, nothing interesting to blog, and a lot more. I could only blog during weekends now and some weekdays that have no classes. With the new system of our school, the more I would become busy and tired that would cause me to become lazy. But despite these, I could always find time to check my blog for new tags and comments.

Well, that's it for now! Thanks for reading! :)

Beautiful Soul

Hey everyone! How are you all? I'm feeling just fine today. The title is actually a song, Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney, another song I'm addicted to! And speaking of soul, today is All Souls' Day and Halloween! As a daily practice, we go to the cemetery to visit our passed-away loved ones.

This morning, I woke up so early because I was disturbed by the beep of my cellphone, when someone texted me. The text message was, as usual, a morning greeting. This time, I was not irritated about these anymore because I am already subscribed to an unlimited texting service and I can already text many times without worrying about my balance. I was so happy that I had finally tried subscribing to it! Now I can send a lot of quotes to my friends!

Yesterday and today are just ordinary days for me, except for the fact that I feel time is running so fast! It was like yesterday was only 5 hours or so! Maybe it's because I spent my time mostly in front of the computer, and texting also to my friends, enjoying my unlimited text messaging! Today, I'm, again, in front of the computer and texting. My subscription hasn't expired yet, still 1 hour to go!

I spent little time on Facebook already. It's because I was finding some quotes for me to send to my textmates. I was browsing some in Brainyquote. While doing that, I suddenly thought about finding quotes from Paulo Coelho, because I have read some of his quotes and like them! I wish to buy and read his books, so that I would have some things to do other than using the Internet and texting.

Well, I have nothing much to say anymore! That's it for now! Have a nice day! :D
