1:30 PM
It's Chinese New Year today and I didn't attend my NSTP. Imagine pinapapasok kami ng hapon. Eerr?!? Anyhow mukhang minamalas na naman ako. Dad gave me his MPIO since I need a new MP3 player and sinuka ko na talaga yun iPod ko. The thing didn't work out for me, I'm not sensitive enough to be its user. :P Pero, really, hindi talaga pwede sakin yun iPod, sirang sira na sya sakin. Sinumbat pa ni Daddy sakin yun dati, saying na he bought that nga for me when I don't really need a player that costs that much. Resbakan ko nga sya and I told him na I didn't ask him to buy it for me, I wanted a new phone not an i Pod. I know the iPod's part of my wish list pero I really didn't need one that time and I didn't need it..yet. Ayun he shut up na. Hahaha. O yun nga I brought the MPIO here at Tita Rose's condo shit naman I forgot to bring the USB cable of my card reader, I couldn't use the USB of the player kasi wala sila Kuya, hindi ko alam kung anu gagawin ko baka masira ko pa tong comp. That ain't good. So I can't do anything about it na muna. Badtrip diba? Yesterday I went to DV with Mama and Mommy I bought myself a new watch and 2 new tops. Mukhang lucky ako yesterday kasi I was supposed to pay for one of the tops ang nagbayad si mama. Tapos yung watch ko nakita ni Ninang Nene, e she was supposed to buy one for her daughter. She asked kung how much ko binili yun, I said P130, she said she'll buy it from me for P200. Whoa! I said yes, kasi bigla ko na rin pinagsawaan yung watch. Hahaha. Lucky diba? I asked Tito Nog to sell my Nokia 2300, the one I bought last December, kasi it's worthless na. Walang signal ng sun. Para saan pa yung extra phone kung di ako makapaginsert ng sun sim. Once in a blue moon lang ako magload sa smart and globe ko. I bought CTU nga pala yesterday and I freaked out. When we were on the way home I checked my bag and wala yung load ko. Uber badtrip kasi di ko pa naloload yun. Sayang yun. So I texted Tito Nog to ask if he's seen my load at his house so he could give it to Tito Ariel since he was going to pick up Ninang the morning after. Mom called Tito Nog din to double check. When we got off the taxi my load was on the seat. Whew! Buti na lang! :)
I wasn't thrilled about what happened yesterday. Uber badtrip talaga ko. See naman my kamalasan diba? Pero what irritated me most was Vince. He went to San Juan with his friends and went drinking. I let go of the fact that he didn't tell me that he was going out, the fucking I found that out was when he sent a group message. Yeah it wasn't for me he was telling everybody that he's gone out drinking. But the most irritating part, which still irritates me, is the fact that he wasn't just with the guys but there were girls as well. Badtrip diba? It's as if my bumabalik sakin na memory na nangyari sakanya dati. He said lumayo daw muna sya coz the group was doing body shots. WHATEVER! Were not talking right now, he's not even texting me. Whatever na lang. Paranoid I may be pero still, he can never take away the fact that I'm feeling uneasy and I really didn't like the fact that they were drinking with girls--THAT HE WAS DRINKING WITH GIRLS!

I just wanna share my term paper for Morality to you guys.
We watched MINSAN LANG SILA BATA.
I've seen this film when I was stil in elemtary, and before it didn't give much impact to me.
I didn't give much damn about what was happening to them, let alone did I gave myself the chance to understand what it was all about.
Now I did.
And if so you find the time try to watch it and see reality.
There are lots of children working, voluntarily or not.
Please do watch this documentary, I hope somehow you will wake up and see the reality and answer the same questions that I have answered.
Also give time to think about what your WANTS are from your NEEDS.
1. WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LIFE IN THE MOVIE?
I can see life is unfair and unjust. Life is not just about happiness and getting what you want. Life means sacrifices. Sacrificing what one wants for the needs of other people. It should not be taken lightly.
2. WHAT STRUCK YOU MOST IN THE MOVIE? WHY?
Everything about the movie brought impact in me, seeing young children like that, doing hard labor at an early age and earning way less than the minimum wage. Being exposed to dangers like what has been shown, one would feel pity and guilt.
Pity for it is a shame to see children, younger than I am, work. Voluntarily or not, they are children. Children are supposed to enjoy life and should not be bothered with issues like what will happen to them if they did not work.
Guilt for many of us take everything around us for granted. We say we don’t get enough of what we want and need when others cannot even compensate for their own needs let alone for what they want.
3. WERE YOU ABLE TO GAIN MORAL LESSON FROM THE MOVIE? PLEASE RELATE.
Yes, I did. One would be being grateful for what we have for not everyone is lucky enough to live the lives we have. One should give more importance to education. Most of those children, or should I say, ALL of those children had to quit studying because they had to work. Many of us do not take studying seriously and give more importance to going out. I saw the reality that most children who cannot afford to go school would trade places with people who do not care about their education. I, for one, am very grateful that I have this opportunity to go to school when most would like to but do not have the sufficient means to do so.
4. WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THEIR SITUATION? IS THERE SOMETHING TO DO WITH SOCIAL/STRUCTURAL SIN? HOW?
I still say their situation is unfair, regardless whether they were working voluntarily or not. The given example, Corruption, is correct. If the Government officials aren’t much corrupt there wouldn’t be much jobless, poor people living right now. Instead of giving budget to give people simple jobs that could help a family; instead of giving budget to public schools so children could study for free, they take the money away form those who really need it and shove it right into their pockets. If they aren’t that corrupt children wouldn’t have to work just to compensate for something they shouldn’t give emphasis to.
5. ARE THOSE CHILDREN VICTIMS OF UNJUST SYSTEM IN OUR SOCIETY?
Yes, they are. If every adult had jobs that can help their family survive, children wouldn’t have to work. They could live out normal lives, enjoy their childhood and have a good education.
6. WHAT IS YOUR OVER ALL REFLECTION ABOUT THE MOVIE AND WHAT ARE THE MORAL IMPLICATIONS?
It makes one aware of the reality that not everyone lives good, if not great, lives. Many of us take things and situations for granted. We don’t give much importance to the things around us. I’m doing my best to be contented with what I have and I’m trying to be more grateful for everything. I know if I say we should stop children from working, that just won’t happen. Our society does not allow that kind of reality as of now. What I could do is to help them in any way I can, materially speaking. I saw that they don’t have clothes to keep them warm, to help them, and somehow feel comfort through out that hard labor. And if so the government could not stop children from working, I hope they punish those people who give heavy work for children. I hope they could be treated equally.
10:29 AM
Just finished our exercise for the day.
Honestly I type fast.
Any summer job's out there needing a typist?
Tell me ok?
It's just me and Meissy here.
Lyka didn't go to school and the rest went to her place.
As usual tension built up between me and my constant "farce-mate", Cai.
But we be ayt.
We always go back to the norms.
Anyhoo, sun's busted again yesterday.
Everytime Vince calls me he gets disconnected and I lose signal afterwards.
We finally got to talk at around 8pm.
He misses me badly daw and he nearly cried the other night coz I fell asleep coz sun's busted.
He feels sad daw kasi he couldn't talk to me.
Finally, he feels daw how I feel.
Kasi before, yung attachment niya sakin on and off.
If he doesn't get to talk to me, sometimes ok lang, NGAYON HINDI NA.
Gottago.

We had our 3 hour break and the Pinkster's decided to go to Lyka's place coz she, Mavi and Meggie wanted to play Tong-its.
At first Lyka was losing. But in the end it was Meggie who lost all her money, Lyka won back what she gave and Mavi won everything Meggie gave.
While they b playing the rest of us decided to watch nasty stuff.:P
Talk about boredom. Me, Steph and Meggie went to Bambang to buy Lab gowns. We ended up eating at SM San Lazaro. Steph bought me this cute lipgloss set form Tomato. This be my Xmas gift from her.

Anyhoo, we didn't have 1st period coz the school held its 1st Friday mass. Victoria came along with us coz she didn't have class until 12. We didn't have class until 10:30. We had our 1st lecture with our Major and experiments for NS. We took some pictures but they be in Steph's phone.

Messages were uber delayed that I fell asleep.

My Baby missed me daw that he couldn't sleep.
Aawww..sweet ng baby ko noh?
Anyhoo, Baby if yer reading this me loves you sooooo much!
9:15 AM
Just arrived here at school. I didn't get to attend Fil class. Twuz good they didn'nt do anything daw. The Prof dismissed them early coz our brains ain't working yet. Think Zombie-like students and you're trying to teach them. That ain't good. The Pinksters are no where to be found. Jam said they were at McDonalds, didn't see them when I passed by. Anyhoo, I don't think they'll be attending, she said they were almost finished eating but that was a while ago.
*They're here*. Ukei. I wuz supposed to update my
Piczo account but the bg link would'nt open, it's blocked by the school's system. So is
F`ster.>:( Anyhoo the prof allowed us to use the net today sonce we don't have our manuals daw. Sweet. So I'm here updating and blog hopping since I really can't do much. I opened my Counterpart's f`ster and I saw an account with hahahaha. Just crap. Real? Is the creator of that account blind? Scratch my counterpart of the list but the rest. Hmmm.. I'll stop blabbing. :P
9:45 PM
No I'm not the boyfriend stealer. I dunno if I wuz. Hmm.. Anyhoo just wanna show you the latest book I've read. It wuz entertaining in a way but I wuzn't really inot it. I thought it wuz
that good. I couldn't find anything under my budget of P300. I'm really kuripot.
This be it. If you're curious buy a copy. :P
6:01 PM
Today be the first day of classes and it sucked.
The damn security guard opened the damn door to our building way past our class hour.
Ok that be good for us coz it ate time for first period, what sucked more is that he didn't open the aircondition! Gawd! Uber init sa lintik na classroom na yun! The electric fan did not do any good!>:O See? Early in the morning badtrip kagad! Xhiet! Anyways I got a 94% over-all grade for Prelims. That wuz good, I guess. Oh yeah she gave us something to do. We should create a one paragraph speech talking about anything under the sun. SHE TOTALLY TRASHED EVERYONE when we were called to read what we wrote. We were narrating daw not doing an actual speech. THE HELL!
For our Major we have a new professor. God knows where the hell the other prof went. He didn't even bother to leave the new prof our exam papers and our Prelim grade. He had better given it already since the new prof told us he be coming by the school at around 2pm. I wanna know what I got. She made us write our names and what are our expectations. Yeah so high school-slash-orientation like. But since she just met us twuz ok. She even made us go, I think, 2 hours ahead of time. Hahaha. Nice!
Since the Pinksters didn't have anything to do Yuki and Steph decided to get their hair hot-oiled and trimmed. Yuki looked damn good! Finally, even for just a while dumirecho buhok ni Xiopao!:P Yuki got bangs, by the way. Steph decided to have bangs as well. Yuki liked what the salon did to her. Steph didn't. Pero sabi namin di lang kasi siya sanay ng may bangs. But it looked good. Sanayan lang talaga. I have pictures of Xiopao just haven't uploaded them yet. Me, Cai and Meissy had our "pictorial" at the salon. Hehehe.
Me thinks it's Cai and Meggie's turn to have their "bangs" moment today.
NatSci period. Hell pa rin! For atleast the first 30mins walang aircon! Hindi na naman binuksan ng guard! Honestly next time bibili na ko ng sarili kong remote for the aircon para lahat ng classroom na pasukan namin ng Pinksters may aircon!>:P
I got an over-all grade of 83% for Prelims. Badtrip diba? Anyhoo, the prof made us do something in the manual. Calculations. Xhiet. I soo hate math. Lahat talaga iharap mo sakin wag lang MATH! Uber bobo ko pagdating dun!>:( I didn't havea hard time computing for the majority of the questions, pero ghad! Yun 2 questions dun! SWEAR! Nakakabobo talaga! Vince wuz texting me that time, wala daw silang ginagawa sa PE so I asked for help. Unfortunately I didn't get to use his answer kasi time na. Nagtampo pa tuloy baby ko kasi feeling daw nya di ko naaappreciate yung effort nya. E naappreciate ko naman.
Steph, Meggie and I were supposed to go to Bambang to buy our Lab.Gown for NatSci kaso si Steph uuwi daw sa Fairview hindi sa Novaliches e it's out of the way. Babalik pa siya ng Morayta para makasakay. So we decided to go tomorrow. It was too early to go home so they decided to finish the pack of cigs Meggie bought. Me and Meissy went to the cellphone arcade to get her phone fixed. I had MP3's uploaded to my phone. I asked the guy to compress the songs in my RS coz they were using lotsa space. P50 for 12 songs ain't bad. We left Meissy's phone there coz it wuz getting late. I asked for a reciept just in case. Went we got back to school they asked why Meissy left her phone there, sure daw papalitan na yung parts nun. Since 2 hours na lang daw yun iintayin, Meggie said she'd go wif Meissy and wait.
So that wuz it.
Get yah posted later. Ciao. :)
4:01 PM
I forgot the date when me and mommy dearest went to DV, anyhoo, just wanna show you guys what I bought. Mom got ME to buy these. Even if I have money I dun like spending, especially when SHE and Dad are around. Imagine she got me to pay for these.:P
Yeah it's a whole outfit.
If you call it an outfit, anyways.:P
The shirt's P120, or wuz it a hundred. I forgot.
The cullot's P250.
The silver wedges P200.
And the star earrings P125.
I soooo love shopping!
Kindly forgive my senseless post.
My Baby's out wif his boys right now thus I'm bored. I sooo miss him. :(
3:47 PM
New blog. Either my life became uneventful again or I wuz just lazy. Me thinks it's a mixture of both. Anyhoo (yeah, this from Kikaye, my strawberrykeyk biatch. Hahaha.) Let us start with things that happend this Christmas break. And may I remind myself that it'll be over soon. We be havin' classes again.
010106.I damn slept before 12am (New Year's Eve) but I did wake up around 12:15, me hopes that I won't be lazy this year. Natakot tuloy ako sa sinabi ni Pah. Xhiet ka Pah! hehehehe. Speaking of Pah, we had lotsa probs this vacation.. Nearly broke up a few times again. He be about ta give up. Good thing he always wakes up to his senses.
Don't let go ayt Pah? Me loves you so muchie!
123005.We went to see the Pyro Olympics. The displays looked soo good! I had several videos taken using my new phone!
Plugging: My new phone.FYI, the phone model with the strike isn't a Nokia 6600! Change the 00 with 80 gets?:P Don't believe me? Here's proof.
Dad got me this fer Christmas. I should be good daw. I sent a text message to Daddy saying thank you and that I love him though he and Mommy aren't together. Aww..I cried while typing that short message. I know my dad isn't the greatest dad in the world,but he's a good dad.
back to the Pyro Plympics thang.
So yah we went to see the Pyro Olympics without paying anything. Hahaha. It's just that the fireworks display were so grand that you can see them even when you're at Baywalk. Yeah yah can see that far. We stayed at the lot near Pier1. The empty lot facing a theatre. We were supposed to just go to Baywalk but the traffic wuz so heavy, we drove near Macapagal. My bro wuz anticipating pa naman na we were going to Baywalk thus he didn't eat before we left. Too bad! We wuz supposed to eat at Pier1 too but there were lotsa people. Maganda kasi yung view sa top floor nila. Open space and you can see the fireworks much, much better. I want to post my captured vids for you guys ta see kaso ayaw sabihin sakin ni Kuya G yung server na pwwedeng maghost. Anyone who knows a free vid host please do tell me. :) Ooh yeah that night I wuz wif my bro, Mommy, my Lola, Tito Adong, Tita Nympha, Kuya Waps, Kuya G and his girlfriend Ate Jen. Tito Emon and Tita Rose were there too but they were parked near CCP.
Anyhoo on that same day I've been to three places before we ended up at the Pyro Olympics.
The morning of 1230, Mommy and I went to DV to buy the 12 rounds fruits, gawd! We left at 8am pagdating namin dun andaming tao! And the streets! Grabe wala ka ng lalakaran sa sahig! Panay box, tali, rotten fruits and putik! But we got all 12.
By 11 I wuz getting ready. Roselle, Krizka, Shermie, Chantel and I were supposed to meet at SM Megamall. Tiz been such a looong time since we got to be wif each other as in kumpleto. I got pissed off. Chantel called Roselle and said she wasn't coming. I wuz really pissed, kasi imagine we moved the date for her tapos she'll be backing out the last moment. Isn't that crappy?!?! Shermie didn't get to come as well. Ayaw syang paalisin ng kanyang mudra, mas badtrip pa gumawa talaga ng paraan para di sya makasama--tinambakan siya ng gawaing bahay. So it wuz just me, Roselle and Krizka. We ate at Tokyo Tokyo first.
Mga gutom na kami. Shit kasi si Roselle, sumakay nga ng FX ke bagal bagal naman!:P The pretty stars I brought. Stars! While we were eating we talked about this certain somebody. Hehehe. It wuz fun! Much better kung kumpleto kami..=[
After that we went ta St. Francis Square, Krizka bought gifts for the parents of a certain friend that takes her own parents for granted and is being an idiot of love.
Roselle and I did this something bad. Hahaha. Ssshhh na lang kung anu man ba yun. Bala magalit si Vince. :) (Loveu baby!)
After that mommy called me, I have to be home daw by 6pm coz we were goin to the Pyro Olympics. Hinatid namin si Krizka sa Shang andun sila ram and they were goin to eat at Cibo daw.
When we got to Shang tapos na pala sila kumain. Sabi ni Krizka nakakahiya daw umorder pa tapos na daw pala.
We didn't get to see Ram, naglilibot na daw kasi.
We went to the third or second floor just to take pictures! Hahaha. Freaks talaga!
122905.We had dinner at my Tita's house at Tandang Sora. Got to see my Ninong, who happens to be my Dad's older bro, who hasn't come back to the Philippines for 13 years! I got the chance to see my cousins Daniel and Jon, as well. Daniel's the hyper active kid. He hugged me when we were about ta go home. Aww.. And Jon! Jon is absolutely ADORABLE!!! I took losta pics of him. Sobrang mahiyain si Jon. Sobra talaga!
Here he is! Isn't he the cutest?
That's it for now.
I'm gettin' really preoccupied.
Madami talagang distractions. hahahaha.
