If Cars Were Like Airplanes, Then There Wouldn't be a Traffic Problem

Lecture here and lecture there. My ears are almost full of the lectures I hear everywhere. I don't have any paper and pen to write everything I hear. I don't think that I need them though. Honestly, I have memorized them already. They are like broken records that keep on playing until somebody will do something to make them stop.

You might be thinking that I'm talking about the lectures in school. Well, no. I'm talking about the lectures from my dad and auntie at home about the increasing of the gas prices in the world market (even if the gasoline companies are declaring rollbacks now). They always do this to me, most especially when I ask permission if I could have an extra trip. They would tell me a lot of reasons why I should avoid the extra trips. Ang dami nilang sinasabi tapos, papayag din pala sila. I find them funny too because they look cute while they are giving me the lectures. HAHA.

I don't blame my dad and my auntie because even I, myself, am aware of the endless price increase of our basic and luxury needs, such as food and clothing. The drastic change and increase of the prices are really surprising. Like what my dad jokingly said, "Lahat ng presyo tumataas, unano lang ang hindi". (okay, sige, tumawa nalang kayo) HAHAHA.

Oh well, at least, we are learning how to save our money, right? v(",)v

So I'm wondering. If cars were like airplanes, then there wouldn't be a traffic problem. At kapag walang traffic, hindi tataas ang presyo ng gasolina. Everybody will live happily ever after!HAHA. So much for my wild imagination. v(",)v

The end.

*Soup mode ako ngayon, I'm sorry. Special credits to my ENGLRES paper. So I'm going back to it na. Good luck to me. v(",)v*

Are You Conyo? (Second of Two Chapters)

I have read some feedbacks regarding this article. Some don't like it while some find it funny too. And what's more surprising, it is spreading all over the town. Even the students from the other schools are posting it in their blogs. So, I am wondering. Is it really controversial? (O_o)

So as promised, I present to you the second half of the the Ten Conyomandments.

6. Make gawa the plural of pangngalans like in English or Spanish.

ex. "I have so many tigyawats, oh!"

7. Like, when you can make kaya, always use like. Like, I know right?

ex. "Like, it's so init naman!"
"Yah! The aircon, it's, like sira!"

8. Make yourself feel so galing by translating the last word of your sentence, you know, your pangungusap?

ex. "Kakainis naman in the LRT! How plenty tao, you know, people?"
"It's so tight nga there, eh, you know, masikip?"

9. Make gamit of plenty abbreviations, you know, daglat?"

ex. "Like, OMG! It's like traffic sa LRT"
"I know right? It's so kaka!"
"Kaka?"
"Kakaasar!"

10. Make gamit the pinakamaarte voice and pronunciation you have para full effect!

ex. "I'm, like, making aral at the Arrhneo!"

"Me naman, I'm from Lazzahl!"

Thank you for reading! v(",)v

Are You Conyo? (First of Two Chapters)

Last Friday, I got a copy of the latest issue of The La Sallian, the English newspaper in the university. After finishing cutting and drawing our paper dolls for our FSTUDY bulletin display making, I began to read the Menagerie (feature) section of the newspaper. I had a fun time reading it because it was really entertaining and creative. One of the articles that caught my attention was the Ten Conyomandments. It was super funny! v('',)v

Since everybody has been posting this article in Multilpy and Friendster, I would also do what they're doing. So please, sit back and relax as I share with you the first half of the Ten Conyomandments by Gerry Avelino and Arik Abu here in Blogger. By the way, I'll post the second half in my next entry. Suspense much? V('',)v Enjoy!

Ten Conyomandments

by Gerry Avelino and Arik Abu

(taken from TLS- Menagerie)

Conyo here, conyo there, conyo everywhere! Here at La Salle, conyospeak has become an unofficial language as a good chunk of the student body knows, or maybe even mastered the socialite tongue. However, one must never forget the basics of the conyo and we thusly bring you: The Ten Conyomandments.

1. Thou shall make gamit "make+pandiwa".

ex. "Let's make pasok na to our class!"

"Wait lang! I'm making kain pa!"

"Come on na, we can't make hintay anymore! It's in Andrew pa, you know?"

2. Thou shall make kalat "noh", "diba" and "eh" in your pangungusap.

ex. "I don't like to make lakad in the baha nga, no? Eh diba it's like, so eew, diba?"

"What ba: stop nga being maarte noh?"

"Eh as if you want naman also, diba?"

3. When making describe a whatever, always say "It's SO pang-uri!"

ex. "It's so malaki, you know, and so mainit!"

"I know right? So sarap nga, eh!"

"You're making me inggit naman.. I'll make bili nga my own burger."

4. When you are lalaki, make parang punctuation "dude", 'tsong" or "pare"

ex. "Dude, ENGANAL is so hirap, pare."

"I know, tsong, I got bagsak nga in quiz one, eh"

5. Thou shall know you know? I know right!

ex. "My bag is so bigat today, you know"

"I know, right! We have to make dala pa kasi the jumbo Physics book eh!"

To be continued...

One Step at a Time

It's already past one o'clock in the morning and past my bedtime too (hello eyebags!). Fortunately, there are no classes today because it's Ninoy Aquino Day. Though we have no classes, I still feel that I'm in school, except that I'm at home, (okay, whaaat?) doing school works. Well, I hope you get what I mean, and forgive me if I'm a little bit soup-minded again. HAHA. Anyway, it's okay because only one more week to go and it's already our term break! Yay! But before that, my blockmates and I have to pass through the hole of the needle first. v(^_~)v Oh well...

By the way, I'm not yet finished with Twilight. I've been reading it for almost a month! I started reading it again last Saturday but I ended up doing our school works. Oh well, I just realized that Edward and Bella can wait, so there's nothing to lose. Nahihiya na ako kay Mela kasi ang tagal na ng book niya sa akin. ('_')

On the other hand, I'm not a superhero who can do everything at the same time. I can multi-task but I can't do everything. I'm doing my stuff slowly, one step at a time.

Wish me luck! v(",)v

So much random stuff in here. Sweet dreams! This is Dana, signing off.

Finally

I met up with my bestfriend, Maggie, yesterday after my class and then we went to Sherwood in Taft Avenue to eat. On our way to Sherwood, there was a street child who was begging for money. Since we didn't have anything to give to him, he chased after us. Of course, we ran as fast as we could and went beside the police man standing at the corner of Tropical Hut to frighten him (he was not frightened). When we crossed the street, good thing, he didn't follow us. v(",)v We were scared though. He was scary even if he's still a child. So when we arrived in Sherwood, I finally got the chance to taste My Bestfriend's Pudding at Cerealicious after one year. Instead of ordering the regular blockbuster, I ordered the regular trailer because I felt that I might not finish it. My Bestfriend's Pudding consists of Honey Stars, peaches, and strawberry ice cream. I really enjoyed it! When I finished my food, I realized that I should have ordered the regular blockbuster. HAHA. Nabitin kasi ako sa food. HAHA. v(",)v

*This picture is from the website: http://www.cerealicious-ph.com/*

And speaking of "finally", after three weeks, I had the chance to talk to my bestfriend. We really maximized the three hours we had. We shared a lot of stories and laughed like there's no tomorrow, as usual. I had a great time yesterday before going home in Laguna. Maggie and My Bestfriend's Pudding made my day! v(",)v

Before I end this, I would like to share with you what I just realized:

Don't let anybody look down on you. You are beautiful inside and out. Always remember that.

Have a nice day everyone! v(",)v

Hopefully, It won't be the First and the Last

Yesterday, I went to the 20th Annual Academic Recognition Day in DLSU with my dad. The day before that, I was thinking of not attending the event. However, I changed my mind because I realized that I wanted to see how the school holds a recognition day. So it was kind of formal because it started with a prayer then followed by the singing of the National Anthem. Two respectable people spoke infront of the crowd and they expressed their congratulations to us, the students, for being in the list for three consecutive terms of the previous school year. At that moment, I felt thankful and happy because God gave me this wonderful opportunity. So when I went up the stage to receive the certificate, I felt like I'm floating on top of the clouds. HAHA.

Three more weeks to go and the first term of this school year will come to an end. Like what I've been telling you for the past weeks, I'm not really happy with my performance in school recently. On the brighter side, the event yesterday became my inspiration to study harder.

Oh well, hopefully, it won't be my first and last recognition day. v(",)v

*I would like to share with you the picture Icca and I took yesterday after receiving our certificates. Can't you see the the joy and happiness on our faces? Nice picture! v(",)v*

Pieces of Good News

I want to start the first day of August with pieces of good news. Unlike my previous posts, there would be no complains or bittersweet sentiments in here. v(",)v So are you ready for the pieces of good news? v(",)v

I would like to congratulate my fellow Humblebee, Ayeen, because her article, "Heaven Not for Gays? " was chosen and got published in the Philippine Daily Inquirer's Youngblood. She is really a good writer and she deserves this kind of special break. I'm proud of you Ayeen, and you inspire me! v(",)v

Since I already brought up the word "inspire", I guess I'm inspired because I passed the ECEDLAN and FILKOMU midterm exam. Yay! Though, there are still a lot to improve. I'm not expecting that I'll be in the list this term, but I'm still hoping for the best. Just let God's hands do the work, and everything will be okay. v(",)v

By the way, I started reading Twilight again because we have less homework to do. I'm actually falling for Edward Cullen, oh no! Haha. Well, you can't blame me because he's worth it, you know. HAHA. *sigh* If you don't know him yet, try typing down his name in the search box of Yahoo or Google. v(",)v

"I promise to love you forever--- every single day of forever."

- Edward Cullen

*Kilig Mode--- HAHA. Yeah, I know that's cheesy. But who wouldn't love to hear that line? Most especially when it comes from the one they love? Yikee.*

Good night everyone! Dream happy dreams! And thank you for visiting my blog! v(",)v

Red Flag Alert

There is something unsual to me this week. I've been acting so strange lately and it bothers me a lot. When I'm reporting or explaining something, whether in class or in a simple conversation, I stutter. Also, there are times when I feel that what I'm saying has no sense at all. Because of this, I guess some people raise their eyebrows or nod their heads because they don't understand what I'm trying to say. In a student's term, I'm in a soup mode (or more famously known as the "sabaw" mode). And it's not good. It's not that I'm being "crazy" like Britney. Auntie says I only lack sleep, that's why. I guess she's right. But how can I sleep early if there are a lot of school works all piled up? (since I entered highschool, 12 midnight is still early for me) You know, I need to catch up to reach my target grades, which are from 3.0-4.0 (ambitious, yes). I should be dead serious when it comes to academics now. I have to focus more! Focus!! Focus!!!

So this is the reason why I'm waving my red flag. And I'm missing my bestfriend. We haven't seen each other for more than two weeks. I have a lot of stories to share with her. *sigh* ('_')

The Challenge

I'm not supposed to go home in Laguna today, but here I am. As usual, I have a lot of school work to do, but I'm almost done. However, I still feel bad because of my first reflection paper. I didn't realize that our professor in this class wanted to read some experiences and insights from us that are related to our topics. She was not satisfied with what I wrote there. So for the second reflection paper, I really thought about what to write, and I even shared some experiences I've had. I slept at around past 1 am because I read and reviewed it. And just a while ago [in this class], I had another soup moment while my groupmates and I were reporting. It seemed like I didn't know what I was saying. After the reporting, I wanted to cry.

Actually, I feel afraid too for the reason that I'm not satisfied with the results I get from her class. Did I mention about the other classes as well? As you all know, I don't want to fail any of the subjects I'm taking up in school, most specially the major ones. One day, I talked to Danielle and shared with her my thoughts regarding school. Once again, I had a meaningful converstaion with her. I was surprised to know that she also finds our school works hard and yet, challenging. I thought about what she said and reflected on it, and I agreed with her in a way. I realized that the school works may be hard but they're challenging too since they enable us to use our minds to think critically. So when it comes to school stuff, I talk to her because she says things that make sense. I like it because I learn something from it. In addition to that, she always looks on the positive side. Her point of view about the good side of life somehow gives me a ray of hope. Go Danielle! v(",)v

So there. From now on, I would take every school work as a challenge and the pressure it gives me as a motivation for me to strive harder for the better. v('',)v

Good night everyone! v(",)v

Oh No! Oh Yes!

Oh no! I'm not yet finished with our online task for EDUTEC2. I've been infront of the laptop screen for more than two hours and I haven't figured out how to use variables and if statements in Flash MX. I'm in the panic mode right now because this online task is due tomorrow at exactly 8:00 AM. And I'm not a computer expert. What am I going to do? Naiiyak na ako!!! *cry-cry-sob-sob* On the other hand, I guess it is my fault too. I should have written what our professor said last Wednesday. I'm currently relying to the websites that has something to do with this topic (and Mau 1o minutes ago).

Oh yes! I feel that I'm going to repeat EDUTEC2 next year. Good luck to me, really. Bahala na si Batman. Oh well, I have to go and pack my clothes for the whole school week. Bye! v(",)v

Kailangan Pa Bang Mangyari Ito?

Noong Biyernes, masayang-masaya ako dahil nakasama ko ulit ang aking mga pinsan. Sa pagkakataong ito, kami ay kumpleto. Bihira lang ito mangyari dahil sila ay nakatira sa iba't-ibang panig ng daigdig tulad ng Hong Kong, Canada, San Francisco, Los Angeles, at Florida. Ngunit, sa kasamaang palad, kaya sila nakauwi (kasama ang iba ko pang mga tiyo at tiya) rito sa Pilipinas ay dahil sa sumakabilang buhay na ang aking tiya na si Auntie Edy. Dahil dito, minsan, naiisip ko, kailangan pa bang may isang miyembro ng aming pamilya ang mawala upang kami ay maging kumpleto? Sa kabila ng lahat ng ito, nagawa pa naming kumain ng masasarap na pagkain tulad ng sisig sa Gerry's Grill sa Quezon City bago kami bumalik sa Mt. Carmel. Isa ito sa mga araw na hindi ko makakalimutan.

Kanina, inihatid na namin sa huling hantungan si Auntie Edy. Nakakalungkot isipin na wala na siya sa amin at hindi na makakapiling sa mga darating na taon at mahahalagang okasyon. Subalit, bigla kong napagtanto na nakakabuti na rin ito dahil kapiling na niya ang Maykapal. Alam ko na masaya na siya kung saan man siya naroroon, kasama ang mga anghel at ang iba pa naming mga mahal sa buhay na nauna na. At higit sa lahat, hindi na siya makakaranas ng anumang paghihirap na sanhi ng kanyang karamdaman.

Ngayon lang ako nakadama ng matinding pagkakalungkot lalo na nang bumalik papuntang Maynila ang aking mga pinsan. Kulang ang kalahating araw na magkakasama kami. Marami pa kaming mga dapat gawin upang mapunan ang mga panahong hindi namin kapiling ang isa't-isa. Maghihintay na nanaman muli ako ng ilang taon upang mangyari ulit ito. Pero sana, maging kumpleto kami dahil sa magagandang okasyon tulad ng Pasko at Bagong Taon at hindi sa paraang...ganito.

Hindi ko lang alam kung napansin niyo na ako ay nagsulat sa wikang Filipino. Kung alam niyo lang, naubusan ako ng wikang Ingles kanina habang kinakausap ko ang aking mga pinsan. Sige, tawa lang. Mas natawa ako nang nalaman ko na ang isa sa kanila ay mahusay palang magsalita at umintindi ng Filipino. Naku, nagpakahirap pa akong mag-isip ng mga sasabihin sa kanya. Sa totoo lang, na "nose-bleed" (siyempre, sarcastic at exaggerated ito...haha) ako habang nakikipag-usap sa kanila.

On a more serious note, Auntie Edy, we will miss you. We love you! God loves you!

*I'm going back to my business. School work, here I come. I hope I could finish my flash animation online task and the others by tomorrow. Wish me luck. By the way, Cente, I'm looking forward to watching another movie with you and your laptop. v(",)v*

There is a Time for Everything

It's funny when people ask me if I have "someone special" in my life at present. I don't know why they keep on asking me this kind of question. They don't even believe me when I say, "I don't have". They say it is impossible since I study in a co-ed school, where there are a lot of cute and good looking guys around. They even make predictions that there is someone who is courting me at the moment. HAHA. They really make me laugh.

Most of my friends are in this kind of situation right now. They are in the kilig stage and I'm actually happy for them. There are times when I tease them too. Oh, it is fun teasing those friends of mine who are in love, inspired, and floating with the clouds! Sometimes, honestly, I'm thinking about that too. I'm wondering how it feels like having someone who treats me as a special person in his life. I hope you get what I mean when I say his treatment is different from the treatment that my family is giving me. Okay, that sounds redundant. v(",)v

Am I ready?

As a teenager, I'm fond of buying magazines like Candy. I learn a lot from the magazine because like my family, it gives me enough reasons on how to be confident with myself and on how to adjust to teenage life. Moreover, it gives me tips on how to dress appropriately. Haha. Anyway, in the June issue, I got curious so I took the quiz about if I'm ready to have a special someone (I'm sorry if I keep on saying "special someone"). Well, I answered mostly letter Bs and the result is so true. Let me quote and share with you what the Candy team says:

"You're in love with the idea of having a boyfriend, but you aren't sure you're ready for the complications of a relationship. You like the thought of holding hands and bumping into your crush, but you're scared of anything beyond that. Chill! You're young and you don't need to rush getting together with anyone. When the time is right, you'll fall in love--- and you won't be scared to!"

Please let me stop at this point and end this one by saying that I'm not in a hurry to fall in love. I'm still young and I need to learn more about life. Marami pa akong dapat i-enjoy sa buhay ko bilang isang seventeen-year-old. Ayaw ko na tumulad sa iba na nagseseryoso na pagdating sa mga relasyon na ganito. It doesn't matter if my friends have a special someone and I don't, because I believe that the "perfect guy" for me will come someday. Darating din ako sa stage na iyan, kaya huwag kayong mag-alala. Like what the bible passage says, there is a time for everything. v(",)v

P.S. What about the crushes? Having a crush on someone is natural. It is not as deep as love. It is only, like what the elders say, the puppy love. v(",)v

First Round Hang-Over

I am not a fan of basketball. When the people around me talk about the Lakers, Celtics, or NBA, I feel that I belong in another planet. I can't relate to what they're talking about, so I end up being on my own, wandering around in my own little world. I'd rather read a book than watch a basketball game, until UAAP came into my life and everything has changed. The rest, as they say, is history.

Whenever DLSU has a game, I would find myself swimming in a sea of green. Everybody in school wears green or that ever famous Animoism shirts. Wherever I go, I could hear some students say, "Are you going to watch the game?" or "I want to be dismissed early so I could buy tickets!". These are the usual scenes that one would see every UAAP season in school. And when a basketball player is visible around the campus, people (mostly girls) can't help but stare at them, giggling, and whispering to each other. Well, we've been through these because we're used to seeing some of them everyday, and what matters to us right now is our studies, right? v(",)v But, when we have a free time, we try to buy tickets as much as possible so we could watch a game live (especially the DLSU vs. ADMU game).

Because of UAAP, I'm learning to like basketball. Although I don't really know the rules on how to play the game, I'd still cheer for our team. I jump and wave the green flag along with others when JV Casio and his fellow Archers shoot the ball. Nevertheless, I feel bad when the other team scores.

Last Sunday, as we all know, La Salle lost to Ateneo---again. Anyway, it always happen every first round. There would still be a lot more La Salle vs. Ateneo games in the future. Oh well, let us hope for the best. May the best team win! v(",)v

First Entry for July

First of all, I would like to congratulate UP and Ateneo for winning their first round against NU and La Salle respectively. It is a pretty good start for UP since the Maroons have just broken last season's record. On the contrary, I hope La Salle would win the next round. Of course, I'm a little bit biased because I''m an Archer. Haha.

I'm currently at the second floor cybernook of Andrew Building. To tell you the truth, I feel like I'm going to freeze anytime soon. The place is so cold and I don't have my jacket with me. I think that the coldness of the surrounding makes me clueless at the moment because I can't think of anything to say. And my hands are becoming stiff, I couldn't type faster. Haha.

Anyway, I have to go. We have class at 9:40 AM at the 17th floor and we don't want to be late because of the elevator traffic. Haha. Have a nice day! v(",)v

*I hope I could post something with sense next time. Happy Birthday to Cheska and Keithy! See you! v(",)v*

You Win and I Lose

It is so hard to be successful even though you have the desire to win in this battle. It doesn't matter how tough you are because in the end, you will be the one who'd breakdown and give up. Despite the fact that you are really fighting for what you believe in, it doesn't seem right most of the time. Their point of view is more reasonable and acceptable in the society at all times. Too bad.

This struggle makes me weak and all I can do right now is cry, cry, and cry. Honestly, I've used all the tissues around here to wipe my tears. It's like I'm watching or reading A Walk to Remember and The Notebook all over again. But I can't do anything about it. I just have to accept the fact that you win and I lose. I give up.

Stay happy always. Good luck. Bye bye.

Not My Day

First of all, I have a not-so-wonderful day today. It is somewhat tiring and overwhelming. I stayed in the computer lab at the second floor of the Andrew building only to answer the questions our professor posted on the IVLE for ECEDLAN. I also felt the pressure of ENGLRES because I had a difficulty writing two thesis statement for my research paper (special thanks to Icca, she helped me). Just a while ago, after three hours of staring at my laptop and typing and researching about the ICT initiatives, I finished doing the online task for EDUTEC2. Lastly, I thought that I wouldn't be a good pre-school teacher in the near future because I'm not as bright as the others. *sigh* My confidence level went down again.

Well I guess today is not my day.

In addition, I want to tell you that somebody's totally out of our life--- my life. I don't know if I would be sad or happy. But I suppose I feel sad and happy. Maybe this is God's way for us--- for me--- to forget about this person. Anyway, those years are enough. Let me take a break.

On the contrary, I had a wonderful dream last night. It was so unexpected but at least, it made me smile. If only I could turn back the time... Haha. v(",)v

I Don't Want to Go Back Yet

Good day to all of you!

I woke up this morning feeling sick. My throat hurt since yesterday, and I was sneezing from time to time. I asked Auntie Lucy if I was hot (as in with fever) but she said no. Maybe I got this from the bad weather and from eating too much sweets.

I guess having colds or fevers is the trend these days. And I go with the trend. Oh well, I think I'm responsible for what I'm feeling right now. Haha. Imagine, I always bring an umbrella with me but I don't use it. Everytime it rains, I walk in the rain. When I feel like craving for sweets, I eat ice cream or drink a super cold fruit shake. This is how odd I am.

Meanwhile, I'm enjoying my five-day vacation. Today is the last day and I'm making the most out of it. Moreover, we're celebrating the feast day of St. John the Baptist here in Calamba, and it happens to be Manila Day as well, which means no classes. Yay! v(",)v

On the other hand, I'm going back to Manila tomorrow. I don't want to go back there yet, even if I'm only staying there for a night. The thought of going at the dorm makes me...well...feel homesick. On the positive side, at least, Marita, Mau, Mela, and Joy are there to make me laugh and be happy. v(",)v

By the way, I wrote something in my multiply account yesterday. Please drop by if you have time. It's one of my serious posts. You can access to my multiply account by just clicking the link on the left side of this blog (danadoo). I hope I will be able to inspire or touch your lives in a way.

Happy Fiesta in Calamba and Happy Manila Day! v(",)v

*I think there is no need to feel bad or bitter at the moment. I found myself a new crush. His name is Nathan and he's my cousin's friend. He's so good looking and cute! I shall meet him soon! Haha.*

Uninspired

I actually have no idea what to say. Unlike before, my mind isn't overflowing with stuff to share with you. Beyond that, I have things to do but I choose to remain immobile at home and stay infront of my laptop reading blogs, checking and updating my online accounts, chatting with old and new friends, and downloading music. Instead of doing productive things, I'm wasting my time doing nothing and thinking about irrelevant issues that sometimes bother my mind.

Why am I so uninspired at this point in time?

It should be the other way around since I've got the chance to have some quality time with the special people. There are a lot of wonderful events that happened this week so there should be a reason for me to be inspired, right? But unfortunately, I'm not. Sometimes, this feeling leads me into the conclusion that, life is so strange and unpredictable too.

Without hesitation, I think I should go to bed and sleep now. Hopefully, I'll have my inspiration tomorrow. Good night everyone! Ciao! v(",)v

Rain Rain Go Away

Summer is officially over. The sky starts to cry out loud, giving away little droplets of water on the land. Lightnings and thunders are always seen and heard. And maybe, one of these days, there would be floods too who'll make it quite impossible for us to go outside our houses or school.

Just like yesterday, Ocha and I were stuck in EGI Taft Tower for a couple of minutes after making our flash character for EDUTEC2. We came from Andrew building and went to EGI to meet and say good-bye to Nikki. When we got outside the salon where Nikki was having her nails done, it began to rain. There was a strong wind and the entrance side (the one facing the school) was almost flooded. Even if it was raining so hard, we walked in the rain and went back to school. Unfortunately, I was wearing flip-flops. My feet were soaked in the mini flood outside EGI, and it left me a bad feeling.

I don't like rainy days, especially when I'm in school. I always wear flip-flops and rarely wear rubber shoes or sneakers. When it rains in Manila, my feet are not only getting wet because of the rain but because of the mud too. Honestly, it is really yucky. Taking a taxi or a pedicab is another option. I don't like to spend forty pesos or more since the dorm where I live is near the school. Hey, I would only cross the Taft avenue! Oh well, I guess this is a part of the college life. v(",)v

It doesn't matter if the rain nowadays is clean. I think I would love to play in the rain if it is dirt-free. However, because of global warming and too much pollution, the rain becomes acidic and dirty.

Let me ask you, who would love the rain if it's like this? I suppose, we'd rather stay in a building or inside a room and wait until it stops than walk, get wet and dirty, and sick. On the positive point of view, in times like this, we can't blame Mother Nature for doing such a thing. I believe she's just giving us what we deserve.

Good day everyone! v(",)v

*While walking on the grounds of La Salle Taft, Jalvin texted me last Thursday just to tell me that she saw Robi Domingo in Ateneo! Woohoo! Isn't she lucky? They both study in Ateneo and they belong in the same department. How cool is that? Haha!*

For You

This song Say It Again by Marie Digby is very, simple, sweet, and nice. Before I pack up my things for school tomorrow and study for our FILKOMU quiz, I'm going to listen to this song first to make me feel even better and motivated. So, this is my LSS (last song syndrome) for today. I really hope I do know how to play the guitar. Can you teach me please? By the way, this is for you. I hope you like it. v(",)v

Say it again for me 'cause I love the way it feels when you are telling me that I'm the only one who blows your mind

Say it again for me, it's like the whole world stops to listen when you're telling me you're in love

Say it again...

*I'm loving the song.*
