Happy New Year, everyone =) (haha, humabol pa).
i don't feel like doing anything today. oh, i watched Autumn in New York again today on Solar. that movie is so sad :(
i also did my nails because i was bored. i didn't use any flashy colors. i used only the transparent kind and my nails look clean and pretty in pink.
gahh. what am i saying? okay this is boring.
bye!

lost in space - lighthouse family |

if there's anything that i am addicted to right now, it's the song "Lost in Space" by Lighthouse Family. i heard this song for the first time when i was in freshman year of high school and i fell inlove with it right after. :) *sigh*

 last night was spectacular. thank you, to those who came :) the first part and the last part of the night was disappointing but the middle was the best especially while nyoy volante was performing *sigh*
 pictures will tell you the rest because i don't feel like going to to every single detail this time. this is the kind of memory where you want to keep it in your heart and mind and let it remain there to linger on forever :)
oh, and i was introduced to nyoy volante :) i shook his hand too! whee! we have a picture together with the barkada. this memory will keep me on a high for a long time or until i go back to watch a gig of his :)
excuse the mushy part. it's probably the rain and the memory of last night :)

Dear friends,
lets play a little game. i won't pretend that i know everyone on my "Friends" list so... i figured i should get to know all of you so as to make reading entries from the "Friends" page more fun :) okay? but, to do that i need your cooperation so just tell tell me about yourself. basic stuff- like name, sex, age, working or studying, school, hobbies, inner secrets (haha), or just anything about you. you can write a novel if you like. the longer, the better :) if you want it short, go ahead. anything goes. i'll really appreciate this. thank you very much Friends!!!
much love,
gail

family affair - mary j. blige |

i just got home from school. i'm really tired. thank God i don't have POLSCI-11 tomorrow because my professor is in Thailand. it's my only class for tomorrow so without that class i'm going to have the friday off. yay. it's gonna be a long weekend :)
school is getting more toxic now. i have a paper for HUM-2 due on the second week of august. it's an analyzation on the painting called "the history of medicine" which is really huge and it's hung at the lobby of the Philippine General Hospital. toxic talaga. it's not going to be just an analyzation but we have to follow a specific format for it. then there's this educational tour. we have to make a reaction paper, album, or whatever we want to to about expressing what we've learned during the trip. apple and i plan to make a tiny website for the trip. it's going to be fun but still, it's toxic.
then, there's this less anticipated mid-terms for SOCSCI-2 on monday. i'm just glad i have three days to study for it. maybe i should start tonight. whatever.

i am so lazy today. i cut my CWTS because i wasn't able to wake up at 4 am in the morning. who would willingly do that? i thought i would. but then, grumpiness and sleep got over me.
burnt three cds today. a mix r&b cd that i danced to in front of the mirror without anyone watching, a "feel good" cd with mushy love songs, and yet another mix cd. hrmm. now i'm playing the "feel good" cd. i just took a shower and i smell of johnson's heaven baby cologne, the lavender baby powder, and the sweet smell of shampoo. i smell clean and as early as 4 pm i'm already wearing pajamas which, to sum it all up, makes me pretty sleepy. dammit. i have to study. hear that? i have to study for my midterms on monday! i brought all my readings upstairs to the study table and just as i was already settled and ready to begin hitting the books i realized that i left the other reading downstairs. now i'm lazy to go down there so i'm giving myself a few minutes before i go get it.
i'm sleepy. i think i should take a nap before studying. ack. even the word "studying" makes me even more sleepy.

dear friend,
the best thing about having more than one journal is that i can post anywhere when i feel like journaling again. sah-weet!
i changed my livejournal's lay-out and color scheme just because i no longer felt my darker theme. besides, those darker days are over and done with although the weather in the Philippines doesn't quite agree with me. it has been raining all day. i didn't go to school because i was already wet on my way there so i went back home. i chickened out. haha!
my dad got me the camera and headset for my cellphone. sah-weet.
a lot of sweet things have been happening in this household lately. first the camer-headset for my phone, and something else really big. i'll tell when i'm positively sure. i'm so excited for my sister!!! haha.
okay i'll leave it here. this is me logging off.

so i just got home from school an hour ago. it was my orientation for NSTP today and it did push through. the sophies (us) were mingled with a whole lot of freshmen though. it took us more than two hours to get over the orientation. they had to talk about SARS blah blah then they dismissed us early. novee (my former blockmate and kule friend) and i were talking about something else the whole time. then when we got really bored we told corny jokes and started cracking up. you should have seen us. we were like high on weed!
then after the training, i met up with apple at the general tambayan at school. she was with simoun and he was picking on his frat pictures, trying to get rid of the double-sided tape to keep the pictures. apple and i helped him and then while doing that we talked. it was relaxing to sit on the bench under the bamboo tree while the wind blew. it was... relaxing =) then after hanging around with simoun for an hour, apple finally made up her mind to go to scelda's condo near the La Salle area. i went with her but when we got there scelda went home to antipolo that morning and she'd return in the afternoon. apple dropped off her things for the overnight later after shirdee's party then we both went to the UM (University Mall) to look for cds =)
we had lunch at carl's junior. i lost my appetite and all i had were two refills of pepsi and half of my hotdog. then apple and i went our separate ways. i went home and she went to scelda's condo.
i'm killing time till i go take a shower and get ready for aby's debut at 7:30. ina's coming too =) yay! i haven't seen her since graduation and i'm looking forward to see her again after what seemed like a year. then after the debut my sister will pick me up and she and her boyfriend will take me to scelda's condo at taft then it's party time from there.
i have a long day ahead of me =) yay for saturday nights =)

must be the light breeze from the window beside me?
the music coming from my radio on the cellphone?
or how melancholic, yet perfect this night is turning out to be?
enough of that :) oooh! now it's ignition (remix) by r. kelly =)
i'm a total sentimental geek tonight. oh wait. scratch that. always naman eh!!!
jstanothergirl and i =)
high school friends are the best and i'm sure frostgunk would have agreed with me ;)

hello blurty friends :) i've missed you :)
my sister has probably arrived in manila and we're waiting for her call. the whole family sent her off at the airport last night and i can't help but think that because of my love for travel i think i have come to appreciate airports as well.
does that come with the whole wanderlust package?
the best airport i've been to so far is the Dubai International Airport. the whole structure is shaped as a humongous airplane and the interior inside is so spectacular with shiny floors and glass windows. it's so huge. i asked my father if i could take-off from there when i go home but then i realized how far you'd have to walk to the gates of the terminal. but damn. that airport is so pretty. heehee.
so anyway, i'm booked for next saturday. my dad confirmed it already and i'm going alone again. since i'm not on Gulf Air, my flight isn't a direct flight. Thai Airways always stops over Bangkok for an hour or more then a connecting flight to manila. SARS!!! oh no. hehe. i like it that way though because when i came here it was 8 hours straight and my legs were so sore from all the sitting for 8 whole hours.
so by next week, i'm home experiencing raindrops again :) whee!

yesterday was rather eventful :) in the evening my family and i went to a dinner hosted by my dad's officemate who's going back home to Manila for good. we stayed there for a few hours and after that we went to the mall while my sister shopped for clothes. there was this huge book sale on the ground floor and i told my father, "this is heaven!" because the books were really cheap and they were pretty good. i said i'd go back and scan the shelves after i've looked around and i went back after i didn't find anything i wanted . the downside of it is that when i went back to the ground floor, the book sale was already closed (as it was already past 10 p.m. in the evening). my dad offered to take me back later though, and i said i'd go if i'm not too lazy to get out of the house :)
my parents took my sister and i to the breakwater (where you can see the city skyline) at the marina. we went to a cafe and ordered dessert. i had a milkshake and a slice of cake then we talked about things. the night was pretty, the sea was spectacular :) then when i got back i watched a movie and Friends with my sister then fell right asleep afterwards.
i was in a brighter mood earlier but when i picked up the paper lying on my parents' bed and read an article that caught my eye, i contemplated too much on it that it made me a little sad. it was about Gracia Burnham's kidnapping and her nightmare days as a hostage. you can read it at The Philippines Star, Thursday, May 8 2003 issue. it's on the frontpage and it says "If God gave me a burger, I'm outta here- Gracia." it's amazing how faith can make things much easier.
so anyway, i also went icon crazy this morning. i made three. 2 of tom welling from smallville and another from one of my favorite movies- You've Got Mail. tom hanks is my ulitmate crush and meg ryan is my favorite actress. when the two combine in a movie, you can be guaranteed that it's gonna be really good :) yes, i also love Sleepless in Seattle.
girlontheside: dear, i haven't forgotten the icon i promised you. i'll make you one and i'm sorry for not giving it to you right away :) what do you want on it? :)

i woke up at 1 p.m. and i think i overslept but it felt really good. i haven't had breakfast or lunch yet. i'm not that hungry but i should fill my stomach before it growls lateron.
i really want to take pictures- lots of them but my CPU here doesn't have a USB port which means that i should get all pictures from the digicam developed before i delete all the pictures in the flashcard. that sucks. i want to be able to upload the pictures! i also want to start a photo journal but i'm not sure if i'll have the time to update. school basically sucks because it steals away mostly all my leisure time. i hope sophomore year of college won't be any worse. i hope i get enough time for myself and not work like a mad scientist during exams. that will drain me big time.
okay. nothing significant to rant about. i'll go grab my lunch now. see ya :)
