dad woke me up so early just to watch the boxing tournament between philippines and mexico.. i think he doesn't enjoy watching it without me! haha i felt bad for boom-boom bautista.. siya pa naman yung finale, natalo siya sa round 1 with a technical knock-out. but still, the philippines now holds the title of boxing champion in the world. WOOTWOOT!
girls night out! i definitely missed that! :) it's been a while! it's funny how abby, eunice, jopet and i were singing jojo's beautiful girls in the car! just like in the movies. haha vava came afterwards, but it's all good.. sometimes we even forget that he's a guy when he's with us!
barney party at tale's house moments ago. happy 1st birthday wryen matthew david! you're so adorable! :D
looking forward for eunice's birthday celebration.. :)
i want to watch rush hour, evan almighty and hairspray!

ate jing (my cousin) sent me an email and asked if i could sign the guestbook of their wedding website. i was swept away by their love story and how long they have been together. :)
ATE JING'S WELCOME MESSAGE:
Welcome 63 days until our wedding.
It has been almost eleven years when Jed and I became a couple. I really didn’t imagine we will get this far. We have grown together making each dream become a reality. Everyone who witnessed our love story always asks what made us last this long? It is not merely love which bind us together......respect, trust and friendship.
Jed would often tease and ask me out of the blue if I will marry him. I would half jokingly answer, "ang tagal naman, but yes, I will." And so the night he proposed, it came to me as a surprise. Over a cup of Starbucks coffee under the stars, moon and lamppost lights of Greenbelt park in Makati, he took out the ring from his pocket and finally said: " I have asked you THIS, several times in the past, I hope this time your answer is still YES... Will you marry me?". I cried and hugged him and said yes, yes, yes and I love you.
FINALLY… AFTER 11 YEARS, I WILL MARRY THE ONE WHO LOVES, INSPIRES, AND BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN ME, MY BESTFRIEND…
See you all on our special day.
KUYA JED'S:
It was in a jeepney bound from UP-Diliman to Katipunan when I first met Jing. She was sitting in front of me so I had a full view. I immediately got attracted to her. She had her eyeglasses on and her hair was cut short to her mid-neck, wearing a striped shirt and jeans... she was beautiful. During the whole trip, she just stared down at the floor and glanced once in a while where we were. How can I forget? When I recall that moment, it all comes so vividly and I knew ever since we got together that it was love at first sight.
We were both students at UP-Diliman at the time, taking up BS Chemistry. Jing was an applicant of the UP Chemical Society (of which I was already a member back then) when I started making my "moves". It was during the get to know each other phase of our relationship that I found out that she was an A student in gradeschool at the Immaculate Concepcion Parish School (she graduated valedictorian!), and that she graduated from Miriam Highschool with flying colors. She also already received several college scholar awards. If it weren't for her looks and the way she carries herself, one would think she was a geek. We were eating in CASAA when I asked if I could court her. Her answer kind of surprised me. She said that yes, I could, but only after we graduate. This was because she promised her parents that she won't have a boyfriend until then. But I didn't listen, I still courted her. And it was after one of our classes while we were walking in Palma Hall that I professed my love to her and asked if she felt the same, she said yes... I was the happiest man alive.
Through the years, during our college days until we graduated, during medical school until we graduated again, and during our residency as full-pledged doctors, we have had our ups and downs. We’ve been through a lot. I can say that we know each inside and out, our good and bad sides. I love Jing. And I will love her for the rest of my life.
********
WOW. 11 years?! who knew they would last that long?! inspiring! haha two great minds, two solid friendship, one love... that will last forever! :D kuya jed has been a part of the family ever since they became a couple.. hindi ko namalayan, 11 years ago na pala yun! :D eversince pre-med to residency! wow!! :D DESTINY!
GOD BLESS TO DRA. SALLY JANE VELASCO and DR. JED ARO!!! see you on your wedding day! :D october 3, 2007..it's official, 11 years na sila!
wedding date: october 7,2007.
i'll be first reading in the wedding mass.. (yikes!)
check out their site: http://jed-jing.weddingannouncer.com/
~to all my cousins, if ever you'd get the chance to read this.. (if ever lang naman!) sign their guestbook! :D

i was lonely for the past few days. there are certain things that i have noticed and realized. There were unpleasant changes in my life which i have to be accustomed to, and honestly.. i'm having a hard time adjusting and coping with it. oh well.
our CI commended my initiative to learn more and mentioned to our group how i managed to do multiple taks eventhough i lacerated my right middle finger accidentally in ER. wala lang, her comments about me made me feel good and gave me more sense of self-worth. (yes!?! haha) seriously, she inspired me to do better pa. And...the results in my ncm exam was... fulfilling! :) wala lang, this must be the result of my "school-bahay" routine. I haven't gone out to party for like months naren siguro. Actually, i am supposed to be out tonight for jan virrey's treat but i opted to stay home and rest. SLEEP sure is a luxury for me lately since most of the week i am exhausted from traffic and from school works that i have to do at home.
met up with jopet and gef the other day, and gef insisted that i should watch their game in don jose the day after. We have a lot of catching up to do daw! I watched their game yesterday, and they were fooling around and made me laugh my butt off the whole day. I missed that! vava and gef!!! mga baliw! i missed abby as well! jopet was missing in action for she was in tagaytay with her dutymates.. sayang!
hmmm.. now i'm having second thoughts on staying home tonight. parang namiss ko sila bigla! haha i think i have to go text them later.
oh and btw, finally made ammends with a friend who i'm not in good terms with for a long time. dei made a move for us to be okay na ulit. :D
i still have something to say but i'm out of words to say what i feel. maybe some other time nalang... :)

what i found out the other day was...overwhelming. I didn't know that things went to "that" extent, that people you didn't expect to know stuff, commented. it's amusing how issues spread that fast and that massive. oh well, i'll just let it be. besides, it's not me who's criticized. :) no harm on my part.
when i found out about jopet and abby's accident the other day, i was scared as hell and worried sick if they're okay. Thank God, things were dealt with by alex. It really pays to know the difference between the gas and the brakes. haha JOPET! you better take a refresher course on A1! haha how the hell did LTO allow you to have a license? kidding! seriously, i'm happy that no one was hurt or was brought to the police. hayyy.
anyways, i'm done with mental. what a relief! good thing, i managed to finish my case study on time. :)
i appreciate people who would just open up things to me because they know it would definitely crack me up! i certainly need a good laugh under pressure. so thanks a lot pal! haha
and..last night's conversation gave me a feeling of relief. Even if i deserve to be told that it was my fault for not listening to him, he just listened to what i have to say. He knows that what i hate most is being told that.. "see, i told you so." and i really appreciate him accepting my apology. things were brought up and cleared once and for all. :)
i was told that one of my groupmates despised me. oh yes, i am not exaggerating. She despised me to the point that she even included me in her self-analysis in her johari window saying that she's everything i'm not. JUST FREAKING PITIFUL. haha oh well, deja vu?! it got me thinking, have i turned out to be a favorite of those kind of people? hmmm. :) to think that my groupmate and i don't even have a conversaton that lasts for 5 minutes! unbelievable! haha
i thought i can quit smoking that easily, but who am i kidding?! quitting is easy but the relapse effects are way harder to deal with. I guess, i should really take it gradually. goodness, heaven knows i tried my best to quit. :(
fob concert on september 21. hmmmm.
things are just getting better and better for me lately! :D love it!
hafta go get my banana cue! waaaah! ahhahaa

it has been our daily routine after our duty in mental to go to shang, pig out in mcdo. walk all the way to megamall for our krispy kremes! hahaa since we have become a regular customer, a service crew approached khryss and i and asked if we wanted more doughnuts (aside from the free glazed donuts that they usually give the customers.) i couldn't help but talk to him just so he'll give us more FREE doughnuts... and voila!! more doughnuts and drinks for us! ahahaah
we have finally witnessed an ECT to a patient. it was HORRIFYING. i can still remember the patient's look when he was in his clonic stage after his ECT.
the tour in pavillion XI was......akward! talk about SPO= sexually pre-occupied patients. They are regressed to the point that they are naked... 24/7! i even saw this one male patient "doing his thing" and was enjoying it when everyone looked at him. yikes.
last day tomorrow. grand socialization day. SASAYAW KAMI! whew. mas mukha pa siguro kaming baliw nun! hahaha
my patient sang for me today. nakakatuwa siya. I finally got his trust and told me things he refused to open up to me before. yey!
still have to make my case study. talk about STRESS! gumawa ka ba naman ng individual case pres na may theoretical framework, psychodynamics, 3 ncp, drugstudy, course in the ward at NPI na ipapasa dapat kinabukasan! hayyyy.
PSYCHO PATHOPHYSIO OF UNDIFFERENTIATED SCHIZOPHRENIA. asan ka ba?!!!!! waaaah.
outie.

YES. you've read it right, a criminal psychopath. My first two days of duty in National Center For Mental Health was as expected.... scary and interesting all at the same time. We were assigned in Pavillion 4 (Forensic Male Adult Unit). We were surrounded with killers, rapists, arsonists and the like who pleaded with psychological insanity in the court of law.
As soon as i found out that we were to handle criminals, my body went cold and i was scared as hell! We were given a brief history and orientation as to how things went in mental. I was assigned to a guy who apparently heard "voices" in his head and raped his 13 year old sister and threw stones to kids in their barangay and destroyed the water pump in their town. HOW'S THAT FOR A PATIENT?! goodness.. According to his chart, there were episodes of panic attacks everytime someone tries to engage in a conversation with him.. THANK GOD he remained calm and cooperative when i was having my interaction with him.
I just realized that our country probably has the most number of mentally ill people... why??! MENTAL HOSPITAL holds the title of the largest tertiary hospital in the world, wherein it formerly holds 8000 clients. buti nalang nabawasan na dahil ikinalat na yung iba sa iba't-ibang mental institutions. ngayon.. around 2000-4000 nalang yata. And everyday nadadagdagan! Could there be any more disturbing facts than that?!!
Next week, we are going to witness an actual Electro convulsive treatment to a patient. YIKES...
The MUSIC and ARTS activity to the patients was sad and "disturbing". We played a sad song and let the patients close their eyes and internalize, after that.. we let them draw the things they saw when they heard the sad song.. most of them drew houses, their family, the nature.. (the things they miss "outside").... then there was this patient who drew a GUN and told us that he miss "FIRING" it. whew.
INDIVIDUAL CASE STUDY. OH GOODNESS. someone help me with the psychophysiology of an UNDIFFERENTIATED SChIZOPHRENIA PATIENT...please?! haha
need to study and memorize "picture interpretation" for our recitation. We have to discuss our own interpretation of our patient's drawing based on the psychological color, picture and line interpretation given to us by our CI.
i'm sooo enjoying my duty!!!!! :D kaso lang......
ANG INIT SA MENTAL!!! NAKAKABALIW! hahahahaa

my day went from drag to fab! haha just when i though that i've had enough of dealing with the early morning traffic, nahuli pa yung fx na nasakayan ko kanina. just perfect. so, i was super LATE. after class, my former zoology classmates invited me to go to janero to drink. i opted to meet up with abby instead bacause i know she needs me badly today. oh well, boyfriend dilemma. :D spent time together like the old times! i went with her in her dentist appointment, then had our nails done. ate at pancake house then dinner at the adalia's. :D good thing, the day ended at okay naren sila ni vava. haha
on a different note:
pwede bang maging masaya kahit hindi mo alam kung ano ba talaga yung pinakareason kung bakit ka masaya? i mean, marami lang bagay na nagpapasaya sayo..ganun? haha WEIRD LANG. pero masaya. PEACE OF MIND, YO! haha

first off, highschool reunion last saturday was a BLAST! :D i am too lazy to give the full details, what's important is ENJOY. :D nakakatouch talaga sila, super alaga! my guy friends are the sweetest ever!
before the party, i was assigned in surgery ward in udmc. :) bonding with head nursing training peeps was fun and.....controversial! special treatment! hahaha see you around kuyas!
i can't help but grin everytime i remember them giving us tips and scenarios for our upcoming psych ward socialization this week. sabihin ba naman na may possibility daw na maiwan ako dun?! mga loko!
heard mass with abby and majic yesterday. dinner with the adalias. :) missed that! :D
ncm and pharma test is over! i already got the results in pharma. :) so far soooo good.
i brought mom to feu hospital last night. she was diagnosed to have pneumonia. :( i visited her today and saw how weak she has become... 20th anniversary pa naman nila ni papa sa 18 :(

that's the only thing that i'm eating for 3 days (yun lang nalalasahan ko eh!) dalandan, calamansi juice, orange, and lastly yung pinipilit sakin ni tita mila na sobrang pangit ng lasa (dahil nga abnormal ang taste buds ko ngayon) pomelo.
i've been in bed for 3 days due to my intermittent fever, dry cough and cold. i think naulanan ako on my way to my pasay duty the other day.. hmmm. i tried to attend class yesterday, but my body just keeps getting weaker so after my ncm class, i took a cab and went home. good thing, i'm feeling a bit better now.
hmmm..
last saturday was she's party and uhm..abby, gef and i had the same assumption on a certain person. as much as we hate to judge people (?), we just don't have a good feeling about that guy. I mean, the effort of letting us meet him was nice. but still... ugh. i need to shake this off. as long as she's happy. but it wouldn't hurt to be more keen on some things and details, right?
shoot! mom said, if i don't get better until tomorrow.. she'll bring me to feu hospital. no f'n way. haha ayoko maconfine dun, and ayoko makamiss ng duty.
AND...
good friend to the rescue!!! my dearest ange came over as soon as she found out about me being sick. :) she spent the whole day here, cheered me up and watched tons of movie together. sweetest thing ever! i love you heaps dear! don't worry, everything will turn out great on saturday, okay? and, harry potter with aaron on tuesday! smile dearie!! love you!!!! :D

Maybe we're not supposed to be happy. Maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. Maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. And maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough itself to celebrate.
in other news, i just witnessed a suicide attempt yesterday on my way to udmc. I was walking on the footbridge along the school's hospital, when i saw a weary woman walking back and forth and was really restless. I was puzzled for she was acting really weird, then the next thing i knew.. she was working her way to jump from the bridge. I was in shock. I was scared as hell to look below to see what happened to her or to check if she's still alive (which i thought at that time has a very slim possibility) but i was startled with screaming people and a hysterical man shouting. So, i expected the woman to be dead.. What's super amazing is.. SHE'S FREAKING ALIVE!! she fell unto a jeep. And to think, that's completely scary! one off-timing and she could be hit.. She was rushed to the hospital's ER and the funny thing is, the ER is like a few seconds away from the bridge! goodness! can you believe it?! It's just sad that some people resort to ending their lives because of probably too much depression and poverty. But you see, God has his ways of telling us that HE still has the upper hand on everything. If it's not HIS will for you to die, you won't.. no matter how bad you wanted your life to end. I just hope the lady survives. I wonder if it got out of the news.. if so, tell me.. baka nakita ako sa TV. waaaaah! haha
i managed to commute from fairview to pasay!!! i'm actually growing up and getting street smart!!
next clinical rotation: PHILIPPINE CENTER FOR MENTAL HEALTH!! i can't help but feel scared and excited with the thought that we are about to mingle with a bunch of schizos and mentally derranged people. challenging!! yey! our level coordinator told us that it's going to be so much fun but the catch is that, it entails lots of work. She says, we should really look forward for the socialization part of our duty. :D buti nalang, nabago yung schedule namen, wala kami dating mental hospital eh. :D weeh! after that, golden acres.. for geriatric nursing training... now that i find boring but let's see.. :D
goodluck to me. i'm currently handling 4 patients in one day. 2 of them, VS q1! and is usually febrile. my heart just crushed when i saw my youngest patient.. a 2year old beautiful baby girl with a ludwig's angina and neck abscess. her endless cries just breaks my heart.
the only thing that i think i can benefit from all the stress i've been having lately is... losing weight! haha
according to ange: highschool reunion moved (again for the nth time) next saturday. miller's place.
last wednesday was super fun! met up with tale and marvs. the only thing that pissed me off is that person who keeps on acting like someone he's not. can't he just get the clue?! argh! now, the whole class thinks that we're an item which we are totally not.. and i think we'll never be. stop acting like my boyfriend. i don't have plans of having one for now. THERE I'VE SAID IT.

goodbye reverse isolation area! what a relief. the pannel in our pre-case presentation gave us a hard time. (btw, case presentations in udmc is pannel interrogation) Lots of revisions! but still, i see it as a good thing that they want us to make our case presentation more comprehensive. I feel really drained for the past three days. I made 3 case studies and helped in the editing of our case presentation. I'm looking forward for our psych ward duty. :D
khryss and i had ourselves pampered after a hard day's work. :) back, hand and head massage is heaven.
it's weird but i feel awful and alone for the past few days.
oh, and finally people are becoming sensitive and are learning how to read "signs".
But still, i don't know why.. but is it really hard to absorb that there are some things that i just can't reciprocate (or at least a certain level of thing i can't give back..)
enjoyed the company of some of my new dutymates. SOME. meaning... there are a few that i find annoying. haha
goofy duty pictures coming soon in my multiply. :D

i'm really enjoying our pharma class. :) we really have a great professor and he makes the discussion really interesting by asking "intriguing" questions. HAHA he's a smart ass witty doctor! while listening to him, i can feel that he really puts his heart to what he's doing. he's not just teaching just to teach. He wants us to LEARN and he makes it a point to leave us something by every meeting.
the "what is your fantasy" question was very trivial and amusing. :)
after class, met up with ange in ust. then went to trinoma to meet up with aaron. :) aaron BIG BOSS KA! haha our dinner in dencio's was all paid for by him. nakakaaliw, he's not the aaron payatot-paniki before! too bad, i can't make it to the concert. there's always a next time. hmm hanggang july 20 nga lang! btw, aaron wants to postpone the reunion next friday for he has "plans" daw. Mangchichicks lang yun! haha
jopet's birthday tomorrow! :D

AARON IS BACK. got to talk to him on the phone moments ago with ange. i'm surprised that he's still makulit and madaldal! haha I mean, i expected to talk to a "manly" aaron but i was wrong. I was laughing the whole time dahil feeling ko si aaron na highschool na makulit parin siya. ANG HYPER NYA! ang daldal pa, talo yung kadaldalan ko! he insisted that i should come to the concert tomorrow. AS MUCH AS I WANT TO.. may 7am class ako the day after..sayang nga eh, 3 BANDS IN A ROW! silent sanctuary, sugarfree and nakalimutan ko na yung isa. i'll meet him tomorrow with ange though, pero sa concert hindi nako makakasama. :(
HIGHSCHOOL REUNION ON FRIDAY! GILLIGAN'S TRINOMA! SPREAD THE WORD. AARON WILL BE THERE. :D
it's official. my favorite day is sunday!! my rest day. the only day i can sleep on my bed as long as i want. I'm slowly getting used to the early morning traffic and feeling of exhaustion at the end of the day.
last wednesday, jopet,eunice and i enjoyed the company of oscar and his friends. :) Surprisingly, one of them happens to be my neighbor.
on a much happier note: i'm really happy that jopet is seeing someone new. :) i saw just how excited she was yesterday! i wish things would turn out to be great for her.
i had my first duty in quezon institute last thurs-sat. The experience was utterly indescribable. Quezon Institute is a pulmonary hospital so from the name itself, you would really have an idea of what kind of patients are there. As expected, all of them have PTB! All the doctors and nurses practice reverse isolation. Nakakapanigo lang nung una, kasi dapat daw hands-on kami sa patients. Wala akong partner, and dun kasi kami talaga ang gagawa ng history of the patient unlike sa feu na JI ang gagawa kaya mas convenient noon. Everyday NCP, drug study, morning care at interrogation ng CI. Masaya kasi ang dami kong natutunan although, nakakapagod lang ng sobra and nakakatakot na baka mahawa sa TB. Pero, ngayon ko lang narealize na marami akong hindi naranasan before. Magaganda naman pala affiliations ng udmc kaya okay naman. east avenue, v.luna, veterans, san lazaro, pgh pa nga yata.. kaso hindi ako marorotate sa pgh and san lazaro. east avenue lang. I've heard dami daw cases so okay naman.
saw ivar while waiting for the elevator and he said hi and stuff. I forced a smile as i saw him happily enjoying the company of his friends. UGH! the nerve.
mike was supposed to pick me up from duty yesterday but i left earlier. Sorry, i didn't know. He just told me that he was already in the parking lot. Thanks anyways.
We were dismissed early, so i met up with abby, dave, gef and pia and jigs in eunice's dorm and watched fantastic 4 in trinoma. I had so much fun!

for the guy i love the most yet i don't even have the nerve to say it straight to his face. for the guy i love most yet i don't get to hug or kiss him for that one guy... FOR THAT MAN WHO I HAVE KNOWN MY WHOLE LIFE. FOR THAT MAN WHO LOVES MY MOM AND OUR FAMILY FOR 20 YEARS NOW.
FOR MY DAD...
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY. :)

my day started with a weird feeling that it's not going to be okay, then i was right. come afternoon, things began to be really annoying. my day was so close to getting really messed up so i decided to take things in my own hands. I am so not going to let my day spoil over some negative realizations, comments and observations. Although, my patience was utterly tested earlier today, i still saw it as a good sign. Something that i thought was vivid is now crystal clear to me.
~me prendre aux films
last sunday, my mom was invited in this french film festival in shangri-la. Considering that i am the only movie freak in the family, she decided to tag me along. I had no second thoughts and saw it as a perfect oppurtunity for us to bond because it has been like forever since my mom and i had quality time together. :) We watched four movies! strolled and pigged-out between gaps. It was so much fun! I can't believe i actually enjoyed march of the penguins which happens to be the philippine entry in the festival. :)
father's day is coming up. hmmm..
oh, and i already finished DH. i want to get my hands on season 3!!!

abby and i spent a couple of hours looking for the perfect gift for vava and for his tita's newborn daughter (which happens to be vava's god daughter)in rustans. what's unusual is, all havaianas branches we've been to doesn't seem to have a stock of a size 9 italia edition havs! that's weird. wala sa serendra, gateway and even sa glorietta, unbelievable. So abby ended up buying the reef slipper that vava has been eyeing on the last time the three of us went out. I just hope he'll like it because i picked that out for him. he better like it or else! haha Then after that, the two of us found ourselves looking for cute baby stuffs in the infant's section again. But this time around, it's for a baby girl. :) Oh man, was it hard to find a gift for a baby! Well, although there were a lot of cute pink little stuffs there, we also have to consider the functionality of the gift. We can't just give in to the cuteness, right? haha so abby settled for a set of cute baby clothes with booties and headband.
right after that, we stopped by at cravings,katipunan to look for cakes for vava's birthday. then headed to nail loft convergys to treat ourselves and had our nails done. :) jopet followed and as usual made funny remarks to the lady that was doing her nails. jopet's unending story about her duty in the dialysis center was super funny!
fun and relaxing day with my girls. just perfect. :) it's great that at least i got to spend lots of time with them lately because i might be very busy and very tired to be with them when school starts.
tata!!

yan and mickey came over 3 days ago unannounced. it was in the wee hours of the morning! 1am?!!! i was looking all drag and sleepy but i loved that they came over for some chitchat. :) missed them.
had a great time in serendra with jopet and abby yesterday. :)
today? i spent the whole day sleeping because of the discomfort that my monthly period gave me.. i missed out on going to abby's. marvs called me up and asked if i can come with him, and i being the lazy ass girl that i am (and this time it's forgiveable because of my monthly period! haha) I decided to stay home and rest. Much to my surprise, i was awaken by text messages from gef telling me to come out of the house because he was there. So i hurriedly went down (muntik pakong malaglag sa stairs!) with my hair all messed up and in my hideous looking but comfortable pantulogs.. I had the biggest surprise!!! tale was there with marvs and eunice. :) awwwwww. And to top it all off, she brought along someone who totally completed my day. Her cute little bundle of joy.. :)
i hate it when my sister overreacts over the smallest things. I don't know why she does it?! i mean, is it all just for attention?! she just has this uncanny way of annoying me. Her knack for ranting about almost everything just gets into my nerves.
after quite some time..i got comfortable with not having a househelp around to do things for us. I got used to being in the house na "kami-kami lang". And tomorrow, that's going to change. My mom decided to hire a maid...again. I just don't see the point. I don't want to have a maid. I'll miss days when i can just do things that i want without watchful eyes to mind. I'll miss letting some people here without my parents' knowing. You see, my parents doesn't want visitors here that often. But i'll find a way to work things out. let's see if the maid can be trusted. haha
i love my mom's job!! she'll get her mobile phone benefit from the office next week with a 2500 plan all paid for by the company (not unless she exceeds the 2500 worth of plan in the bill) And what's great is that, she'll get the phone that i have been eyeing for for quite some time now. the black N73 music edition. :)

june 14 marks my first official regular class in my new school and i so don't want to go to school yet. i don't know, i guess.. i'm just afraid of what's there in store for me or what people there has got to offer. if you know what i mean...
**
HOW COULD I BE SO STUBBORN?! i mean, didn't i mention that in my past entries?! I hate that i have this in me because i know one day it will get to me. I am like the most hard-headed nineteen year old alive for even doing some things that i ought not to do. Oh, okay. Laugh it off. It's sheer stupidity. I admit it. This thing about me being a masochist is really getting boring and yes.. annoying to some extent. I'm just tired of the idea of facing pain in the hopes of getting numb. Thing is, i figured.. i'll never be. Unless, i've learned to care less or not to care at all. So the stare at the slap-me-to-reality stuff didn't pretty much work so might as well do the opposite. I hate to admit it, but sometimes.. it just happened to be like a routine. wherein you know, you just got used to some things that's why you tend to do it. And that is going to stop now. And i mean it.
Summer break has made me realize a lot of things. I mean, my time was mostly spent here at home and with my family. But the thing i mostly treasure is the precious time i had with myself. Lately, when i'm with other people, i figured some things that i thought was hidden with a silver lining. I thought, that maybe somewhere..somehow..there may be something in there. A sun hidden beneath a cloud. My moments alone, taught me that you can't search for something that's not there. You can't hunt for something that doesn't even exist to begin with. A glimmer of light doesn't exactly mean that there is a rainbow. Yes, what i'm saying is.. i learned that seeing much of what's in front of you is wrong. And truth is, wrong is an understatement. Seeing much of what's in front of you leads you to things or to situations wherein you weren't meant to be in. It may be too good to be true or too awful to look back, point is.. it's not meant for you. And when it came to the point that i realized that..i was devastated. Honestly, at first it was hard to accept for i thought i was just made to believe that something i longed to feel and have after a long time was there again. existed again. But then again, i was wrong. I wasn't made to believe it. No one did. I made myself to believe everything. And what hurts most is that, now i should make myself believe once again and accept that there's not much of a pot of gold at the end of my rainbow. The rainbow which i thought was there all along was... yes, none to be found after all. You see, it's not to be found because it is to be made. Pot of golds are only there if you make it happen. And oh, i would have to remind myself that a picture speaks a thousand words but once you look at it closely it only means one thing. It paints you an image of what it wants you to think.
i'm crazy, i'm vague and yes, i'm complexly weird and i'm proud of it.

I'm supposed to be with them at the fort later, then my mom successfully ruins everything. just friggin' perfect. tsktsk way to go mom. my mom has the knack for spoiling plans..or my plans for that matter. and since when are they even active with this marriage encounter seminar?!!!! I just want to be out with my friends before school starts, DAMN IT! WOULD IT KILL THEM IF THEY WOULD JUST LET ME?! now, would you blame me if i resort to sneaking out?! no wonder most of the time na umaalis ako ng takas. raaar!
i'm stuck with watching desperate housewives tonight. hmmm, okay not bad.
called up chels and had the chance to clear some things with her. but still, there are some things that i just CAN'T UNDERSTAND. i'm trying, but i'm really having a hard time thinking that it makes sense. but what's important is.. chelsea and i respect each other for whatever opinions we have about some things. i hope she can get through whatever it is that she goes through.
