Around 10 am earlier today I woke up to a really bad headache. And being that, I thought it was Saturday.
But then I thought really hard. Oh wait. No, it can't be Saturday. Because yesterday was Sunday. And Saturday definitely doesn't come after Sunday. So I concluded today was going to be really messed up.
Fortunately that hasn't come true. Yet. Haha.
So anyway, last Saturday, I was watching Arirang, and Pops in Seoul just finished. I didn't intend on watching Diplomacy Lounge, since I hardly cared about that stuff, but something made me stay and see who the guest was.
And voila. The Philippine Ambassador to Korea was the guest. My jaw dropped. You see, it has something to do with my course in college, and what I really wanted to be.
Developmental Studies is a very diverse course, as I've discovered. My mum said I could choose to continue medicine, or instead become an FSO, and someday become an ambassador. I snorted at the latter part, because honestly. I've thought about that before, but I've never really considered it as a course, much less a career.
So when that show (and that guest) came up, it got me thinking. What if I really wasn't meant to be a doctor? Maybe I was meant to be some amabassador or something. The rest of the day I was pondering on this, and then next day, Sunday, I said, Lord, gimme a sign. So I looked around for stuff that I could take as a sign. At first I considered really crazy stuff, like seeing a cockroach, and stuff like that. But then I looked up at the sky, and saw the weather and I was like, "Lord, if the sun shines today, I'll go and become an FSO or whatever. If it doesn't well, I'll just take whatever life has in store for me." And so for the rest of the day I repeatedly, anxiously looked up to the sky, somehow wishing for the sun to come out and assure me of my destiny.
But no. It didn't. Around lunchtime I said to Trixie, this is a bad omen. :x And that attitude continued on until we went to church. My mind was wandering off, and I wasn't really listening to the pastor's sermon, when it suddenly hit me: what if I didn't need a sign? What if God already somehow knew what I wanted, but I myself didn't? So I was all, okay then.
The ride home was a debate about my college and life after that. My mum said I could pass the FSO exam easily; written and verbal part. I was glad my mum had faith in me like that. My aunt didn't think so. She said I'd have difficulty passing the verbal part since I was so introverted and quiet, I'd have qualms about answering whatever question they threw at me. But my mum insisted I could do it, saying that she knew me, and I certainly wouldn't fail.
My mum's nice like that. When other people look down on you, she raises you back up.
Haha. Anyway, it was a tiring day yesterday. We went to a lot of places, considering my dad wasn't here. Haha. So till next time. :D
Choi Si Won is apparently coming to the Philippines.
Not just for a visit.
He's fricken gonna come here to model for Bench.
And meet up with KC Concepcion for Habitat for Humanity. Or something like that.
I dunno. The idea doesn't appeal to me that much. I mean, I'd rather see DongHae or Ryeowook's face plastered across the metro in huge billboards.
Obviously I don't favor SiWon too much.
But the thing I fear the most is SuJu (or worse, DBSK) becoming the next F4 here in the Philippines.
Don't get me wrong. F4 is a totally decent group, but back then I found them pretty cheesy. *gets shot*
So onto another topic.
Trixie enrolled into UST yesterday, and sadly, she and Alain aren't in the same block section. :( Plus all her classes end at 2. Damn. I wish my classes would end at the same time. Her classes would start at June 11.
I feel very anxious about my enrollment. I have to go through so much just to enroll. T.T And I don't even know a thing about my course, except that it has so many branches. And some of them I haven't even heard about.
Anyway, I'm here in Netopia. Our little gimmick just ended, and we ended up here. We can do this at home just fine. But since our parents have decided to abandon us temporarily, we seeked refuge here.
The other person sitting beside me is apparently going to UP Manila too. I'm not sure. She (or he. I really can't tell. The baggy clothes are hiding the person's true gender. xD) is arguing with the mum about the entrance requirements. I saw them viewing the UP website. Haha.
My screen's turned the other way so the person won't see what I'm typing. I hope. xD DAMN I would appear really evil if ever that were to happen.
I spent my morning going to the condo, eating bfast at Pancake House, and working out at the gym. Damn exercise made my asthma act up again. My mum made me buy Ventolin for me to drink. :x
So we watched Superhero Movie. It was funny, but it had sexual innuendo throughout. And we didn't even get to start it. We only went in about 20 minutes into the movie. But it was funny. xD
We went to Timezone afterwards. I played Super Mario Kart (My rank is Feisty Goddess. I shouldn't have changed that from Sweets Racer. Dammit.), and the drums. I couldn't get past one song. That one opening song from Rurouni Kenshin. O___O Plus I played Time Crisis 4. It was fun. Although a few minutes into the game my arm was getting cramps. So I stopped. xD
We had Quickly afterwards. Yay for choco pudding + sago + coffee. :)
What did I tell you? It was just me, Alianna, and Trixie. Mhm. People are very malabo if ever you talk to them. They tell you one thing, they act another. Tsk tsk.
So now I'm waiting for my parents to pick me up after they go to the condo. Haha.
Haha. I'm starving right now, actually. I haven't eaten lunch, and all I've ingested for today is yogurt, a bun, and milk. Hurrah for dieting/starvation. Mhm. 8D
So anyway, that's all. Czime left me a ton of offline messages, and I replied back with more. 8D Plus Berna and I chatted. It was nice to talk to friends again. Damn. I miss them a lot. :x
Plus I saw what KJJ would want his girlfriend to wear. As I said to Zara earlier, damn Jae and his penchant for scarves, coats, and layers. It's too damn hot to wear all that. I'd die of heatstroke if ever I do.
And I think I'm going to GH tomorrow. O__o A former classmate said there'd be a mini reunion of sorts. Though I'm sure not many people would come. Just me and the group. xD
And new layout. :D As you can see. I added a few stuff. Like the title of the blog entries. xD I can't stand not having a title.
Anyway, I'll be back tomorrow. Or another day, if I feel too lazy tomorrow. ;)
Hahaha. xD I've been wanting to say that for the longest time now.
Anyway, I was just watching AI earlier, and there was this lady that called in and asked if David Cook was single. And I was like, WTF. Are you serious?? Am I really hearing this? Crap. It's either my point of view in men is crooked, or the ladies swooning over him are ... who they are. xDD Cause honestly, I don't like him. The way he sings, the way he acts, the way he dresses. He annoys me. xD *gets rotten tomatoes thrown at her by David Cook fans* David A's so much better. 8D
So anyhoo. I've been out of the house for the last two days, first one was to go to Lae's birthday. :D We ate out at Yellow Cab, btw, in Greenhills. And yesterday was to complete my requirements for enrollment into UP. I had to get a med exam, and an xray. So both days I got home around 9 or 8.30 pm, feeling too tired and lazy to go online.
Plus I've discovered a new website for the gossip monger in all of us -- Chikatime.com. xD For Phil gossip anyways. It's really funny. The gays there are no holds barred. xD It made me laugh the other day while I was waiting for Trixie and the others to arrive. :D
That's it, I guess. At least now I'm home, and I can rest. The other day when I went to the gym drained my energy. Damn adductor and the other machine I used to tone my pecs. My muscles hurt like hell now. Stupid lactic acid build-up and whatnot. xD
Ta-da. Icons. :) I've been making them lately, and since I've decided to share them, I put them in a table. Plus I honestly don't know as to why it has so much space before it. xD
But farking HTML doesn't work in forums, so I'm using it here instead. :D YAY. Haha.
Anyway. I heard a lot of my friends are going to school where their friends are going too. And they're in the same class. I was ... not shocked. Haha. That friend asked me where I was going and I answered him. His reply was to ask why didn't I just pick the other uni. My lame answer was my mum picked my college. Ha ha.
Again, I was woken up by the dog. Haha. Plus by the sound of the car's tires screeching away as my dad left for golf. At 4 AM in the morning. And in a storm. At least that's what I heard my mum say. I was groggy. Who wouldn't be? Hello. 4 AM, you're awake, and it's summer. I see nothing right in that sentence.
And I could finally upload songs into my cellphone! YAY. :D Now I need to figure out how to transfer pictures. xD
Dang. I'm so farking dead when I enter college. If I feel lazy about blogging, what more about homework? Term papers? Crap. Crap. Crap.
Haha. xD I haven't updated in a few days. xD I felt really lazy. But here I am. :D Plus I have new phone! YAY. :D It's slim, and small. And accdg to my mum, perfect for my college life. Er okay, mum. xD It's a Nokia 5310 Music Xpress. :) It only costs 8800Php (in Greenhills, anyway. Other stores outside of GH sell it for 11K. >__>) :D The 5610, which is basically the same, except that it has a slide function, and a 3 megapixel camera, cost 11K. So I just went with the 8K one. :)
It's really nice. It comes with a free 1G memory card. YAY. :)
And I found out it was my grad gift. CRAP. I was planning to ask for a different gift (more like gifts. xD) but inunahan nila ako. Haha. I was gonna asko for 2 photobooks, and a dvd. But blah. I guess I'll just ask for them when school comes. So I gotta have a good grade! Fighting, Nina! FIGHTING!
Hohoho. :) I'm liking SuJu M a lot right now. More than the original SuJu. :x Haha. ZhouMi looks a lot like KangTa and SiWon mixed. O___O Honestly. The first time I watched SuJu M - U, I thought it was KangTa. But as I repeated it, he looked more like SiWon. O___o
So anyway. xD Henry's cheeks look very pinch-able. :D Haha. He looks more suited for the cutesy stuff-- not the serious look. :| Either way, his violin perfs are awesomee. :D
RYEOWOOK IS LOVE IN THE MV. Seriously. His hair is GREAT, plus his skin looks really clear. It makes me really envious.
I like this Chinese version better than the Korean one. O_____O SuJu only 13 fans don't kill meee. I dunno why. Maybe because I like the MV better. The Chinese ver is more polished in the overall look, but too much hip thrusting in the end. Plus the part where they put their hands on each other's shoulders made me laugh. xDD
I wake up at 9.20 everyday. Without fail. Because the dog starts looking for someone to play with. So I wake up, make my coffee, and a sandwich, then I sit in front of the TV, browsing channels, and whatnot, till 12.30. I take a bath, then at 1, I go online. :) I'm online until 4, then my sister takes over.
I watch TV again, popparazzi, and other. Then around 7, I eat dinner, then I want to go online again, but I'm too lazy. So I end up procrastinating, then I don't go online again.
That's how my day usually goes. And I have no objection to this routine.
But today, that's now how it went.
I was woken up by my grandmum, saying my dad was on the phone, asking to talk to me. I thought it was to say, he was gonna pick my sister and I up later today to look for stuff. But that wasn't it. Apparently, it was because ALL my course choices in UP Manila were already filled.
That sucks right? Well, it gets even worse-- my dad asked me to choose from a number of courses I hadn't even heard about. At first I contemplated choosing Pol Sci, since all courses there were Pre Med, but I wasn't into anything with politics in it, so I went, "You just ask mum, dad. She's the one who chose all my other courses, anyway," And so, after that, we said goodbye, and hung up.
At first I thought everything was really messed up. But when I prayed, I felt better, and I felt really stupid for crying. :| So I felt better. :)
So now I'm taking Developmental Studies (whatever that is), not Speech Pathology.
GEEZ why are all my courses unknown?? Even I don't know what's involved in Developmental Studies. Bleh.
Er, wait. 8D I'm checking to see if the embed is too big for my layout. :x Stupid whatever site screwed up the embed. Good thing YT's working now. Hurrah, hurrah. WATCH WATCH! I like the guy, guy, hahahahaha. :) Although in one scene his cheekbones are like.. jutting out. O___O Whatever. Most shots of him are still nice. :D
Why is it so fricken SMALL?? :x
어느 날 우연히 널 본 순간 난 사랑에 빠졌나봐 너에겐 흔한 일이겠지만 나 태어나 단 한 번 못해 본 사랑 행복했던 내 기억 속에 널 간직하고 싶어 (난 너를 보면) I can’t eat I can’t sleep I can't eat I can't sleep 난 너를 너무 사랑해 어린 아이처럼 (난 너를 보면) 단 하루 하루 만이라도 난 너의 사랑이 되고 싶어 Forever with you 사랑이 되고 싶어 난 너를 보면 Ha~ 난 너를 보면 Ha~ 오늘 우연히 마주친 순간 넌 기억 할 순 없지만 날 보는 눈빛이 날 힘들게 해 나 태어나 처음 느낀 사랑이라면 소중하게 내 맘 속 깊이 널 간직하고 싶어 (난 너를 보면) 보고 싶어 널 사랑해 언제까지나 Babe (영원히 나는 널) 난 널 사랑해 (난 너를 보면)
Yea. So my day is THAT boring I just had to post even the lyrics. Hmf. It's fricken hot, as usual. Nothing better to do than lounge around and sit in front of the comp. The dog has a fixation with my toes (he can't stop biting them). Haha.
I have purple nails now. 8D I wanted to buy blue too, but then my mum would go berserk if she would see my nails painted electric blue and deep purple. Haha. It's the only time I've painted my nails. :D I love Face Shop's nail colors. 8D So pretty. :)
That crazy, addicting song by Lee Seng Chul. I've been listening to it nonstop ever since I got ahold of it last ... Friday, I think.
I can't eat, I can't sleep.. Haha. :)
Very sweet song. The MV is nice too. It stars YoonA from SNSD, and an unknown guy, who btw, is veeery cute. 8D Does anyone know???
For some reason, YT won't let me copy the link to embed the vid here. >_______> Dunno why.
Anyhow, I wasn't online for the whole weekend. My dad's here, and because he is, we get home late everytime we're out. It's wrong timing, really. When I do want to go out, I can't. When I don't, my dad's here. So today, (it's a holiday here. :) when I was asked by my mum if I wanted to come, I was, no. I want to rest. So goes my alibi. Haha. xD
Besides, I encountered a really big problem earlier, before coming online. You see, my comp has a UPS, which functions as a kind of data saver. When the power goes out, my comp doesn't immediately shut down. It lets me save all my work first, then it conks out. So it's pretty useful. Until a few a hours ago. I was on schedule, y'know. From waking hour until that fateful second. The moment I pressed the button on the UPS to turn on my comp, it started beeping like crazy, so I harriedly pressed the button again. My eyes were wide, and I yelled. I was really distraught-- my comp sorta like my lighthouse; it's my saving grace whenever I feel I'm about to sink. And when I see it, I get hope again. (HAHA xD) So when I couldn't turn on the comp, I was like, NOOOO~ My aunt even snapped at me for being so melodramatic.
But if you were in my position, I'm sure you would understand.
So anyway, my mum told me to wait for my dad. And when my dad did come home, he was like, "Oh. It's low on batteries, that's why," I look at him blankly. And then he proceeded to take the thing from the comp, disconnecting a lot of cables, and then he and my mum promptly left, taking the UPS with them, presumably to look for more furniture, and to change the UPS' batteries.
So now I'm hoping that it doesn't suddenly black out here. xDD
BEAUTIFUL YOU MV IS LOOOOVE. OHMYGAD KJJ. Yunho, surprisingly (to me, anyway), is looking good here.
DAMN isn't the single itself out yet?!
YEA so anyway. *stops spazzing* 8D That made my day already, basically. Yesterday, I had to go the dentist for my college requirements, and all went well. Except for the fact that I have to go back for cleaning. >__> I don't like going to the dentist, really. There's something about the clinic that unnerves me.
Apparently, for the physical and medical exam, back in the day my grandmother had to strip (as in, stark naked) while still in the waiting area. There was a looong line of chairs, and they all sat there, waiting for their turn, naked, and with only a towel to cover their fronts. And once they got into the examination room, they had to go onto a bed as high as their waist. They were, in her terms, "like a bunch of pigs". Yes. Way comforting for a girl with a body like mine.
I hope the system's changed since then. Now, there's such a thing as "indecent exposure" or "destruction of public peace", and you can actually get jailed if you get caught or accused of such crimes.
I don't want to not get into college just because I failed a dental, physical, or dental exam. Um, hello? I did get into your uni because of my exam results, not because of my orthodontal, physical, or medical state of health. Or lack thereof.
I'll just go off into my own DongBangShinKiland. :)
Aishh. I can't believe I'm venturing into enemy territory. Deal, Nina, deal. Until you find that song, FIGHTING! Just collect enough posts for you to ... HEHEHE. >:)
IN:COM is love, btw. :D Such a small forum, yay. But they started over.. late last year, I think. But I think they were pretty big before that already. :) Hurrah for IN:COM. :D
For being such a rude, insensitive, and persona-non-grata jerk. Is that how you treat someone who's helped you get through senior year? By saying "I don't know you"? I think not.
So screw you.
I offered to pound him to a pulp, but my friend said no. So I'll listen to her wishes.
I remember that from last year's World History lesson. Good times, good times. I still remember most of the stuff that was taught, and I hope some of it comes in handy in college.
I was talking to Ayrton yesterday, and we drifted to the topic of college, and grades. He asked me when the cards were going to be picked up, and I answered him with the date, and my expression of distress over the whole thing. He was surprised, because to him, my grades were already pretty high. I laughed dryly (over YM, of course), replying to him that to my mum, it was waayyy below her standards. You see, I know I have standards, and I know they're pretty high. But whenever I do get low grades, I get over it. I don't stress over it much, and I just do my best to get higher grades next time. But to my mum it isn't enough. A lot of I do, actually, isn't enough.
I'm not pretty, thin, nor smart enough. And I get this sentiment from my family a LOT. And I do mean a lot. I get bombarded by such comments everyday, and each time I just try to keep it in, just smile through it like it's some joke. They laugh, and I try to laugh along with them. But you see, no matter how hard I've tried to keep it in, it all came pouring out yesterday. I cried myself to sleep, thinking how much I'd like to move out, so I could finally live in peace.
And it hurts a lot. A plenty lot, you know. Coming from the people who are supposed to like, support you no matter what. I just don't get that from them. It's frustrating because they call me callous, that I'm so indifferent to my family, to my sister. She's fricken spoiled, you see. And I'm not like that. So whenever she asks for something, I block her, saying that she already has so much, and she can just play with that. She snaps back at me (she's 9, by the way), and I snap back at her, and then I'm the one who gets the telling off.
I see a number of things wrong in this picture-- first of all, she shouldn't answer back at me; I'm older than her. Second, she's the one who should get scolded, not me. I'm not the big spender. And they go on telling me off, branching into a number of topics totally unrelated to the incident.
I know why I'm like that-- I'm resentful of the fact that when I was little, no one was even there to say a word in my defense. I stood up for myself; hence, my attitude now. And I'm thankful for that. Because of it, I'm not the type of person to be pushed around.
It's so frustrating. I wish college would start soon. :( So I could move out.
I'm apprehensive, though. Ayrton told me Maureen is also going to UP (Diliman though. DAMMIT wala bang Manila?!), and told me that she was pretty scared. Not intimidated. I asked why. He answered, because there was this river in the campus that always had fetuses in it. WTF.
BALLET, loves. I watched a ballet recital yesterday (much to my dismay), and it was entertaining, at the very least.
The funny thing was it was like no one in the cast took it seriously except the teens, and the teachers. Honestly. The little kids looked as if they were playing around. Even if they were kids, they should've at least performed a little better. But hey. At least I laughed. I was very entertained by this little, chubby girl who was always late in hte movement. She was really cute. 8D I laughed everytime she came onstage.
You could totally tell which group was the beginners, and those who were already advanced. The kiddies in the pink frilly skirts were the beginners. Plus they also didn't have to stand on tip-toe. The teens did that while they were performing. I'm guessing they've invested a lot on pedicures in the future.
So it was a really tiring weekend. We went all around Manila just to look for appliances, and furnishings for the condo. All would go well except for two very annoying things-- my dad's a go, no matter how pricey, and my mum's a scrooge. So they argue whenever my dad sees something nice, but my mum objects to its purchase because it's too mahal.
So that's how my weekend went. Did I mention we spent over 10K in food alone? As in for us family of 4. Yeah. That's how much my family spends whenever my dad comes home. Help me I don't inherit his genes in terms of money management.
Hello, my name is Nina and I like doing the daily crossword, Photoshopping and singing my heart out, although by no means am I good at any of the aforementioned activities.
Kpop is one of my favorite things and TVXQ is my fandom (: Jaejoong makes my heart go 두근 두근 like no one else can; altough I love Junsu, Yoochun, Changmin and Yunho just as much.
Some survey I got from Bea, who is my love. xD

Tuesday, April 29, 2008 / 6:10 AM ♥
Around 10 am earlier today I woke up to a really bad headache. And being that, I thought it was Saturday.
But then I thought really hard. Oh wait. No, it can't be Saturday. Because yesterday was Sunday. And Saturday definitely doesn't come after Sunday. So I concluded today was going to be really messed up.
Fortunately that hasn't come true. Yet. Haha.
So anyway, last Saturday, I was watching Arirang, and Pops in Seoul just finished. I didn't intend on watching Diplomacy Lounge, since I hardly cared about that stuff, but something made me stay and see who the guest was.
And voila. The Philippine Ambassador to Korea was the guest. My jaw dropped. You see, it has something to do with my course in college, and what I really wanted to be.
Developmental Studies is a very diverse course, as I've discovered. My mum said I could choose to continue medicine, or instead become an FSO, and someday become an ambassador. I snorted at the latter part, because honestly. I've thought about that before, but I've never really considered it as a course, much less a career.
So when that show (and that guest) came up, it got me thinking. What if I really wasn't meant to be a doctor? Maybe I was meant to be some amabassador or something. The rest of the day I was pondering on this, and then next day, Sunday, I said, Lord, gimme a sign. So I looked around for stuff that I could take as a sign. At first I considered really crazy stuff, like seeing a cockroach, and stuff like that. But then I looked up at the sky, and saw the weather and I was like, "Lord, if the sun shines today, I'll go and become an FSO or whatever. If it doesn't well, I'll just take whatever life has in store for me." And so for the rest of the day I repeatedly, anxiously looked up to the sky, somehow wishing for the sun to come out and assure me of my destiny.
But no. It didn't. Around lunchtime I said to Trixie, this is a bad omen. :x And that attitude continued on until we went to church. My mind was wandering off, and I wasn't really listening to the pastor's sermon, when it suddenly hit me: what if I didn't need a sign? What if God already somehow knew what I wanted, but I myself didn't? So I was all, okay then.
The ride home was a debate about my college and life after that. My mum said I could pass the FSO exam easily; written and verbal part. I was glad my mum had faith in me like that. My aunt didn't think so. She said I'd have difficulty passing the verbal part since I was so introverted and quiet, I'd have qualms about answering whatever question they threw at me. But my mum insisted I could do it, saying that she knew me, and I certainly wouldn't fail.
My mum's nice like that. When other people look down on you, she raises you back up.
Haha. Anyway, it was a tiring day yesterday. We went to a lot of places, considering my dad wasn't here. Haha. So till next time. :D
Choi Si Won is apparently coming to the Philippines.
Not just for a visit.
He's fricken gonna come here to model for Bench.
And meet up with KC Concepcion for Habitat for Humanity. Or something like that.
I dunno. The idea doesn't appeal to me that much. I mean, I'd rather see DongHae or Ryeowook's face plastered across the metro in huge billboards.
Obviously I don't favor SiWon too much.
But the thing I fear the most is SuJu (or worse, DBSK) becoming the next F4 here in the Philippines.
Don't get me wrong. F4 is a totally decent group, but back then I found them pretty cheesy. *gets shot*
So onto another topic.
Trixie enrolled into UST yesterday, and sadly, she and Alain aren't in the same block section. :( Plus all her classes end at 2. Damn. I wish my classes would end at the same time. Her classes would start at June 11.
I feel very anxious about my enrollment. I have to go through so much just to enroll. T.T And I don't even know a thing about my course, except that it has so many branches. And some of them I haven't even heard about.
I'm sitting next to Trixie.

HI TRIXIE! :) Haha.
Anyway, I'm here in Netopia. Our little gimmick just ended, and we ended up here. We can do this at home just fine. But since our parents have decided to abandon us temporarily, we seeked refuge here.
The other person sitting beside me is apparently going to UP Manila too. I'm not sure. She (or he. I really can't tell. The baggy clothes are hiding the person's true gender. xD) is arguing with the mum about the entrance requirements. I saw them viewing the UP website. Haha.
My screen's turned the other way so the person won't see what I'm typing. I hope. xD DAMN I would appear really evil if ever that were to happen.
I spent my morning going to the condo, eating bfast at Pancake House, and working out at the gym. Damn exercise made my asthma act up again. My mum made me buy Ventolin for me to drink. :x
So we watched Superhero Movie. It was funny, but it had sexual innuendo throughout. And we didn't even get to start it. We only went in about 20 minutes into the movie. But it was funny. xD
We went to Timezone afterwards. I played Super Mario Kart (My rank is Feisty Goddess. I shouldn't have changed that from Sweets Racer. Dammit.), and the drums. I couldn't get past one song. That one opening song from Rurouni Kenshin. O___O Plus I played Time Crisis 4. It was fun. Although a few minutes into the game my arm was getting cramps. So I stopped. xD
We had Quickly afterwards. Yay for choco pudding + sago + coffee. :)
What did I tell you? It was just me, Alianna, and Trixie. Mhm. People are very malabo if ever you talk to them. They tell you one thing, they act another. Tsk tsk.
So now I'm waiting for my parents to pick me up after they go to the condo. Haha.
New layout yo.
Tuesday, April 22, 2008 / 7:41 AM ♥
Haha. I'm starving right now, actually. I haven't eaten lunch, and all I've ingested for today is yogurt, a bun, and milk. Hurrah for dieting/starvation. Mhm. 8D
So anyway, that's all. Czime left me a ton of offline messages, and I replied back with more. 8D Plus Berna and I chatted. It was nice to talk to friends again. Damn. I miss them a lot. :x
Plus I saw what KJJ would want his girlfriend to wear. As I said to Zara earlier, damn Jae and his penchant for scarves, coats, and layers. It's too damn hot to wear all that. I'd die of heatstroke if ever I do.
And I think I'm going to GH tomorrow. O__o A former classmate said there'd be a mini reunion of sorts. Though I'm sure not many people would come. Just me and the group. xD
And new layout. :D As you can see. I added a few stuff. Like the title of the blog entries. xD I can't stand not having a title.
Anyway, I'll be back tomorrow. Or another day, if I feel too lazy tomorrow. ;)
Hahaha. xD I've been wanting to say that for the longest time now.
Anyway, I was just watching AI earlier, and there was this lady that called in and asked if David Cook was single. And I was like, WTF. Are you serious?? Am I really hearing this? Crap. It's either my point of view in men is crooked, or the ladies swooning over him are ... who they are. xDD Cause honestly, I don't like him. The way he sings, the way he acts, the way he dresses. He annoys me. xD *gets rotten tomatoes thrown at her by David Cook fans* David A's so much better. 8D
So anyhoo. I've been out of the house for the last two days, first one was to go to Lae's birthday. :D We ate out at Yellow Cab, btw, in Greenhills. And yesterday was to complete my requirements for enrollment into UP. I had to get a med exam, and an xray. So both days I got home around 9 or 8.30 pm, feeling too tired and lazy to go online.
Plus I've discovered a new website for the gossip monger in all of us -- Chikatime.com. xD For Phil gossip anyways. It's really funny. The gays there are no holds barred. xD It made me laugh the other day while I was waiting for Trixie and the others to arrive. :D
That's it, I guess. At least now I'm home, and I can rest. The other day when I went to the gym drained my energy. Damn adductor and the other machine I used to tone my pecs. My muscles hurt like hell now. Stupid lactic acid build-up and whatnot. xD
Ta-da. Icons. :) I've been making them lately, and since I've decided to share them, I put them in a table. Plus I honestly don't know as to why it has so much space before it. xD
But farking HTML doesn't work in forums, so I'm using it here instead. :D YAY. Haha.
Anyway. I heard a lot of my friends are going to school where their friends are going too. And they're in the same class. I was ... not shocked. Haha. That friend asked me where I was going and I answered him. His reply was to ask why didn't I just pick the other uni. My lame answer was my mum picked my college. Ha ha.
Again, I was woken up by the dog. Haha. Plus by the sound of the car's tires screeching away as my dad left for golf. At 4 AM in the morning. And in a storm. At least that's what I heard my mum say. I was groggy. Who wouldn't be? Hello. 4 AM, you're awake, and it's summer. I see nothing right in that sentence.
And I could finally upload songs into my cellphone! YAY. :D Now I need to figure out how to transfer pictures. xD
Dang. I'm so farking dead when I enter college. If I feel lazy about blogging, what more about homework? Term papers? Crap. Crap. Crap.
Haha. xD I haven't updated in a few days. xD I felt really lazy. But here I am. :D Plus I have new phone! YAY. :D It's slim, and small. And accdg to my mum, perfect for my college life. Er okay, mum. xD It's a Nokia 5310 Music Xpress. :) It only costs 8800Php (in Greenhills, anyway. Other stores outside of GH sell it for 11K. >__>) :D The 5610, which is basically the same, except that it has a slide function, and a 3 megapixel camera, cost 11K. So I just went with the 8K one. :)
It's really nice. It comes with a free 1G memory card. YAY. :)
And I found out it was my grad gift. CRAP. I was planning to ask for a different gift (more like gifts. xD) but inunahan nila ako. Haha. I was gonna asko for 2 photobooks, and a dvd. But blah. I guess I'll just ask for them when school comes. So I gotta have a good grade! Fighting, Nina! FIGHTING!
Hohoho. :) I'm liking SuJu M a lot right now. More than the original SuJu. :x Haha. ZhouMi looks a lot like KangTa and SiWon mixed. O___O Honestly. The first time I watched SuJu M - U, I thought it was KangTa. But as I repeated it, he looked more like SiWon. O___o
So anyway. xD Henry's cheeks look very pinch-able. :D Haha. He looks more suited for the cutesy stuff-- not the serious look. :| Either way, his violin perfs are awesomee. :D
RYEOWOOK IS LOVE IN THE MV. Seriously. His hair is GREAT, plus his skin looks really clear. It makes me really envious.
I like this Chinese version better than the Korean one. O_____O SuJu only 13 fans don't kill meee. I dunno why. Maybe because I like the MV better. The Chinese ver is more polished in the overall look, but too much hip thrusting in the end. Plus the part where they put their hands on each other's shoulders made me laugh. xDD
I wake up at 9.20 everyday. Without fail. Because the dog starts looking for someone to play with. So I wake up, make my coffee, and a sandwich, then I sit in front of the TV, browsing channels, and whatnot, till 12.30. I take a bath, then at 1, I go online. :) I'm online until 4, then my sister takes over.
I watch TV again, popparazzi, and other. Then around 7, I eat dinner, then I want to go online again, but I'm too lazy. So I end up procrastinating, then I don't go online again.
That's how my day usually goes. And I have no objection to this routine.
But today, that's now how it went.
I was woken up by my grandmum, saying my dad was on the phone, asking to talk to me. I thought it was to say, he was gonna pick my sister and I up later today to look for stuff. But that wasn't it. Apparently, it was because ALL my course choices in UP Manila were already filled.
That sucks right? Well, it gets even worse-- my dad asked me to choose from a number of courses I hadn't even heard about. At first I contemplated choosing Pol Sci, since all courses there were Pre Med, but I wasn't into anything with politics in it, so I went, "You just ask mum, dad. She's the one who chose all my other courses, anyway," And so, after that, we said goodbye, and hung up.
At first I thought everything was really messed up. But when I prayed, I felt better, and I felt really stupid for crying. :| So I felt better. :)
So now I'm taking Developmental Studies (whatever that is), not Speech Pathology.
GEEZ why are all my courses unknown?? Even I don't know what's involved in Developmental Studies. Bleh.
Er, wait. 8D I'm checking to see if the embed is too big for my layout. :x Stupid whatever site screwed up the embed. Good thing YT's working now. Hurrah, hurrah. WATCH WATCH! I like the guy, guy, hahahahaha. :) Although in one scene his cheekbones are like.. jutting out. O___O Whatever. Most shots of him are still nice. :D
Why is it so fricken SMALL?? :x
어느 날 우연히 널 본 순간 난 사랑에 빠졌나봐 너에겐 흔한 일이겠지만 나 태어나 단 한 번 못해 본 사랑 행복했던 내 기억 속에 널 간직하고 싶어 (난 너를 보면) I can’t eat I can’t sleep I can't eat I can't sleep 난 너를 너무 사랑해 어린 아이처럼 (난 너를 보면) 단 하루 하루 만이라도 난 너의 사랑이 되고 싶어 Forever with you 사랑이 되고 싶어 난 너를 보면 Ha~ 난 너를 보면 Ha~ 오늘 우연히 마주친 순간 넌 기억 할 순 없지만 날 보는 눈빛이 날 힘들게 해 나 태어나 처음 느낀 사랑이라면 소중하게 내 맘 속 깊이 널 간직하고 싶어 (난 너를 보면) 보고 싶어 널 사랑해 언제까지나 Babe (영원히 나는 널) 난 널 사랑해 (난 너를 보면)
Yea. So my day is THAT boring I just had to post even the lyrics. Hmf. It's fricken hot, as usual. Nothing better to do than lounge around and sit in front of the comp. The dog has a fixation with my toes (he can't stop biting them). Haha.
I have purple nails now. 8D I wanted to buy blue too, but then my mum would go berserk if she would see my nails painted electric blue and deep purple. Haha. It's the only time I've painted my nails. :D I love Face Shop's nail colors. 8D So pretty. :)
Propose, propose. :)

That crazy, addicting song by Lee Seng Chul. I've been listening to it nonstop ever since I got ahold of it last ... Friday, I think.
I can't eat, I can't sleep.. Haha. :)
Very sweet song. The MV is nice too. It stars YoonA from SNSD, and an unknown guy, who btw, is veeery cute. 8D Does anyone know???
For some reason, YT won't let me copy the link to embed the vid here. >_______> Dunno why.
Anyhow, I wasn't online for the whole weekend. My dad's here, and because he is, we get home late everytime we're out. It's wrong timing, really. When I do want to go out, I can't. When I don't, my dad's here. So today, (it's a holiday here. :) when I was asked by my mum if I wanted to come, I was, no. I want to rest. So goes my alibi. Haha. xD
Besides, I encountered a really big problem earlier, before coming online. You see, my comp has a UPS, which functions as a kind of data saver. When the power goes out, my comp doesn't immediately shut down. It lets me save all my work first, then it conks out. So it's pretty useful. Until a few a hours ago. I was on schedule, y'know. From waking hour until that fateful second. The moment I pressed the button on the UPS to turn on my comp, it started beeping like crazy, so I harriedly pressed the button again. My eyes were wide, and I yelled. I was really distraught-- my comp sorta like my lighthouse; it's my saving grace whenever I feel I'm about to sink. And when I see it, I get hope again. (HAHA xD) So when I couldn't turn on the comp, I was like, NOOOO~ My aunt even snapped at me for being so melodramatic.
But if you were in my position, I'm sure you would understand.
So anyway, my mum told me to wait for my dad. And when my dad did come home, he was like, "Oh. It's low on batteries, that's why," I look at him blankly. And then he proceeded to take the thing from the comp, disconnecting a lot of cables, and then he and my mum promptly left, taking the UPS with them, presumably to look for more furniture, and to change the UPS' batteries.
So now I'm hoping that it doesn't suddenly black out here. xDD
LOVELOVELOVE. XP

BEAUTIFUL YOU MV IS LOOOOVE. OHMYGAD KJJ. Yunho, surprisingly (to me, anyway), is looking good here.
DAMN isn't the single itself out yet?!
YEA so anyway. *stops spazzing* 8D That made my day already, basically. Yesterday, I had to go the dentist for my college requirements, and all went well. Except for the fact that I have to go back for cleaning. >__> I don't like going to the dentist, really. There's something about the clinic that unnerves me.
Apparently, for the physical and medical exam, back in the day my grandmother had to strip (as in, stark naked) while still in the waiting area. There was a looong line of chairs, and they all sat there, waiting for their turn, naked, and with only a towel to cover their fronts. And once they got into the examination room, they had to go onto a bed as high as their waist. They were, in her terms, "like a bunch of pigs". Yes. Way comforting for a girl with a body like mine.
I hope the system's changed since then. Now, there's such a thing as "indecent exposure" or "destruction of public peace", and you can actually get jailed if you get caught or accused of such crimes.
I don't want to not get into college just because I failed a dental, physical, or dental exam. Um, hello? I did get into your uni because of my exam results, not because of my orthodontal, physical, or medical state of health. Or lack thereof.
I'll just go off into my own DongBangShinKiland. :)
Aishh. I can't believe I'm venturing into enemy territory. Deal, Nina, deal. Until you find that song, FIGHTING! Just collect enough posts for you to ... HEHEHE. >:)
IN:COM is love, btw. :D Such a small forum, yay. But they started over.. late last year, I think. But I think they were pretty big before that already. :) Hurrah for IN:COM. :D
And the golden raspberry award goes to..
/ 5:57 AM ♥
ADAM BENEDICT ARNALDO LAVADIA.02!
For being such a rude, insensitive, and persona-non-grata jerk. Is that how you treat someone who's helped you get through senior year? By saying "I don't know you"? I think not.
So screw you.
I offered to pound him to a pulp, but my friend said no. So I'll listen to her wishes.
I remember that from last year's World History lesson. Good times, good times. I still remember most of the stuff that was taught, and I hope some of it comes in handy in college.
I was talking to Ayrton yesterday, and we drifted to the topic of college, and grades. He asked me when the cards were going to be picked up, and I answered him with the date, and my expression of distress over the whole thing. He was surprised, because to him, my grades were already pretty high. I laughed dryly (over YM, of course), replying to him that to my mum, it was waayyy below her standards. You see, I know I have standards, and I know they're pretty high. But whenever I do get low grades, I get over it. I don't stress over it much, and I just do my best to get higher grades next time. But to my mum it isn't enough. A lot of I do, actually, isn't enough.
I'm not pretty, thin, nor smart enough. And I get this sentiment from my family a LOT. And I do mean a lot. I get bombarded by such comments everyday, and each time I just try to keep it in, just smile through it like it's some joke. They laugh, and I try to laugh along with them. But you see, no matter how hard I've tried to keep it in, it all came pouring out yesterday. I cried myself to sleep, thinking how much I'd like to move out, so I could finally live in peace.
And it hurts a lot. A plenty lot, you know. Coming from the people who are supposed to like, support you no matter what. I just don't get that from them. It's frustrating because they call me callous, that I'm so indifferent to my family, to my sister. She's fricken spoiled, you see. And I'm not like that. So whenever she asks for something, I block her, saying that she already has so much, and she can just play with that. She snaps back at me (she's 9, by the way), and I snap back at her, and then I'm the one who gets the telling off.
I see a number of things wrong in this picture-- first of all, she shouldn't answer back at me; I'm older than her. Second, she's the one who should get scolded, not me. I'm not the big spender. And they go on telling me off, branching into a number of topics totally unrelated to the incident.
I know why I'm like that-- I'm resentful of the fact that when I was little, no one was even there to say a word in my defense. I stood up for myself; hence, my attitude now. And I'm thankful for that. Because of it, I'm not the type of person to be pushed around.
It's so frustrating. I wish college would start soon. :( So I could move out.
I'm apprehensive, though. Ayrton told me Maureen is also going to UP (Diliman though. DAMMIT wala bang Manila?!), and told me that she was pretty scared. Not intimidated. I asked why. He answered, because there was this river in the campus that always had fetuses in it. WTF.
BALLET, loves. I watched a ballet recital yesterday (much to my dismay), and it was entertaining, at the very least.
The funny thing was it was like no one in the cast took it seriously except the teens, and the teachers. Honestly. The little kids looked as if they were playing around. Even if they were kids, they should've at least performed a little better. But hey. At least I laughed. I was very entertained by this little, chubby girl who was always late in hte movement. She was really cute. 8D I laughed everytime she came onstage.
You could totally tell which group was the beginners, and those who were already advanced. The kiddies in the pink frilly skirts were the beginners. Plus they also didn't have to stand on tip-toe. The teens did that while they were performing. I'm guessing they've invested a lot on pedicures in the future.
So it was a really tiring weekend. We went all around Manila just to look for appliances, and furnishings for the condo. All would go well except for two very annoying things-- my dad's a go, no matter how pricey, and my mum's a scrooge. So they argue whenever my dad sees something nice, but my mum objects to its purchase because it's too mahal.
So that's how my weekend went. Did I mention we spent over 10K in food alone? As in for us family of 4. Yeah. That's how much my family spends whenever my dad comes home. Help me I don't inherit his genes in terms of money management.
