Farewell, Yukan Club.

Tapos na Yukan Club....................... WAHHHH!!!!!

I shall forever love you, Miroku, Seishiro, Noriko, Yuri, Karen, Bido.

It's the most awesome series ever. I swear. Even better than Hana Kimi (!) and that's saying something, because Hana Kimi is a romance series unlike Yukan Club which is more of a mystery series and thus has more impact on me since I'm a hopeless romantic. BUT Yukan Club brings feel-good dramas to another level. Soon, I will write a loooong review on Multiply about this awesome awesome series so that more people will know about Yukan Club. I love you, Yukan Club. I shall miss you!!!! :((

(Sorry for the immense fangirling, but I really had to. It heals the hole in my heart (because Yukan Club is over!!!) a little bit. Hey, at least it's not just about Japanese guys anymore.)

I really haven't been posting a lot...

And that's because I have nothing to say. But just to let you know I'm still alive, I'll just inform you about some news that might mean nothing to you but means a lot to me.

1. Benazir Bhutto is dead.
2. The Princess Diaries is ending at 10 books. (Yes, I know this sounds extremely insignificant when placed side by side with news that one of the world's most influential women was killed.)
   
3. There will be a "Gokusen 3". (Ditto.)

And that's basically it. My life is I'm boring.

Reading "A Devil Wears Prada". Just finished "Gokusen 2". (not that you care)

Merry Christmas, loves!

(Done in Fireworks, with a little help from my sister. Okay, a lot of help.)

sorry for the lack of updates. i'm laaaaaazy.

i've been watching "Death Note" (anime) and "My Name is Kim Sam Soon".

i'm also going to work on something i'll be putting up soon, fingers crossed.

Untitled

(This is a very short FICTIONAL story. Read on. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll get it.)

I don't really know when it began. It was sometime between 7th and 8th grade but I can't remember exactly when. The whole thing was a big blur for me.

One thing I know is that it began when I fell for him. Yes, him. The one and only basketball captain, who laid eyes only on beautiful curvy women who could bat eyelashes at him for hours only to have him wink in return for barely a split second.

So how would I, the kid in the corner, make him notice me?

It's stupid, I know. But sometimes, you can't help but do a little wishful thinking, you know.

There was this dance, I think, a White Dance, they called it, because it was when girls asked guys to the dance, instead of the other way around. I kind of followed him stupidly around the school, you know, wondering if anybody would ask him. Then I remembered that it didn't matter. Because it was a dance when asking guys to the dance was the girls' job, and not the guys'.

the fair and the promotion

kahapon, nag lakwatsa lang ako all day! whee! nag fair with ja and ana... tapos later on umalis na si ja after naming maglunch sa wai ying tapos we traveled around ongpin like i always do... hehe... nakabili ako "attack on the pin-up boys"!!!!! awesome quality, so happy!!!! yaaaaaay! now i have a bit of heechul-nim to keep for myself. >.< (sorry for the fangirling)

anyway, masaya naman yung fair i guess mainly because of the people. it's great to see everybody again... :D

this morning naman, pumasok ako sa ateneo for the promotion for taekwondo. YES that's right, YELLOW BELTER na ako. But really, easy peasy lang ung promotion yet i messed up a lot... but lahat naman daw pinapasa. hahahaha. fun, i tell you.

nakita ko si matsu jun!!! hahahaha!

cge hanggang dito na lang muna. take care! :D and as always, comment! :)

follow-up weirdness

okay i can't help but comment on this no matter how pointless it may be. ung xtraordinary christmas thing. di ba dati may xtra large thingy na theme ung fair? i dunno. weird lang.

onga pala nag long test sa ES kanina (environmental studies). masaya cya. 60 items true or false tapos 25 points essay/enumeration. how can that not be fun? 60 items hula!!

sana lang nga tama ung sinagot ko. :D

how things got better

well. yes. lit is fun again, yay, because sir cayanan acted normal today. :) nagdrawing kami haha, ang bulok ko magcolor, nakakahiya naman, pa art team art team pa ako.

and oh yeah, my livejournal lives! di ko na lalagay dito kasi... nakakahiya pag nalaman ng ibang tao hehe, so just tag here if you want to be added as a friend. besides si ely lang naman ata may lj dito. tell me na lang ely if you want to be added. it's not friends only naman, pero i'm gonna keep it secret from others. ;)

about THIS blog naman, i was thinking of restricting it, pero di na lang siguro kasi konti lang naman gumagamit ng link na to and most people who read my blog read it on multiply and that's what i don't like kasi parang weird naman kung di mo alam kung sino nagbabasa ng blog mo. so, no restriction na, but i'm not going to go around publicly telling everyone about my blog anymore.

moving on, may block christmas party today pero di ako pumunta kasi di ako pinayagan ng parents ko. sadly. but it's okay i guess. i still see my block regularly. ang mamimiss ko lang ung food. :(( masarap daaaaaw! may lechon and stuff... and i'll not see my "baby" and how he'll react when he knows i'm his secret santa. (i'm guessing wala lang. di naman kasi kami close or anything, and di rin naman kami magka-away) anyway, okay lang din, nakapagbonding session naman kami kanina after lit telling corny jokes (anu favorite color ni pooh? pooh-la! anu surname ni sisa? mistreet! and so on and so forth) and those brain teaser things. (at last gets ko na ung dadalhin sa beach or whatever. i think you know what i'm talking about, krizia, pero baka super labo ako. :D) Bakit nga ba masaya ung mga ganun? weeeeeeeeird... :D

krizia baka suotin ko ung panda thing tmrw pero di ko sure. MAYBE. kasi di naman tlga ako nagsusuot ng ganung stuff. if not baka sasabit ko lang sa bag ko or something. :D

ely, christian, josef, everyone else, you guys going to the fair? (kayo na lang kasi nagbabasa ng blog ko eh. sob.)

bye loves. comment/tag/whatever!

making figurative lemonade

I REALLY can't wait for school to end. Seriously, ALL of my classes are boring. At least before there was Lit to rescue us from eternal boredom, but our teacher just HAD to get pissed at us and so it's currently the most unbearable class of all. And that's saying much, because how can Lit, which I feel is the best subject ever (except when Ms F was teaching, because that wasn't Lit, that was the word that begins with S and rhymes with Lit (and it's not sit. nagiging rated PG na blog koooooo)) be more unbearable than subjects like MATH and ES???

BUT not everything has been so bad. For example, Christmas is coming! You know, no matter how annoying the Christmas songs in the LRT stations may be, I kind of enjoy them. I don't know. That, however, does not mean they're not annoying. They are VERY annoying. Just in a good way. :)

Remember the Kris Kringle thing? Well, I haven't been getting anything for the past few days but TODAY I got them all! Sweet red shiny note... yay... it's a nice feeling... because for the past few days I've been all "Nobody loves meeeeee"... haha... I'm an idiot, I know.

By the way I'm going to stop posting my blog entries on Multiply and I'm REALLY tempted to lock my blog and show it only to limited people... I feel exposed... I'll just do all my fangirling in Livejournal, maybe, and my personal life here, and unimportant philosophical entries (which are not all that many) and maybe entries directed towards blockmates in Multiply. After all, most people who read this blog (and comment!) have Blogger accounts anyway. Well actually fangirling I MIGHT post on Multiply. I'm not fangirling here anymore, see? Because I know you guys don't like them so much and you'd appreciate ranting more. So I'm RANTING and not fangirling now.

I'm not removing Jinnie's pic though. You can't see it anyway, since it's tiny and a little bit further down. :)

That's all. Thanks, loves, and take care! COMMENTS or TAGS are most welcome! <3

more stuff...

hello again...

today was a very bunnies-filled day for me, mainly because classes were boring and um, well. basta.

medyo wala akong magawa... i'm just blogging so that the ratings thing isn't my last post because it's a sucky last post, if you ask me.

oh yeah, nagkaroon ng amazing race in binondo and our team won 2nd place. I guess I should be happy. Yay. But really, when you realize that you should have won 1st and gotten 3000 pesos (for the entire team) instead of a t-shirt (a nice t-shirt, i guess, but still), winning 2nd place doesn't sound so nice anymore.

medyo nakakatamad magkwento so well, I'll just shout out to my teammates jes bea and rachelle. hello! everybody else say hi! :D oh and our faci cristina! yay!

um. the background isn't showing up anymore, is it? i'll try to fix it...

so. the block has a kris kringle thingy and tomorrow we're supposed to give our "babies" something sweet... cyempre di ko lalagay dito kung anu bibigay ko, duh. ano ako, stupid?

moving on... (see? i told you. i'm not feeling the happiness today, that's why i'm all moody and such. i DO feel better though.) bukas na ako manonood ng "death of memory" (a play which we're required to watch for lit) and apparently, at least according to danica (and i fully trust her judgment) it's gross in some parts but okay naman daw yung story. which is a good thing. gross things i can tolerate but horrible story, no.

i'll be going to the SSHS fair this saturday. okay, if you're a Stephenian, pupunta ka ba? when? hopefully kahit na saturday na ako pupunta during which there are very few people, i'll still be able to see you guys. :) if you're not, punta ka na! it's this friday and saturday sa St. Stephen's. it's FUN!

i'm moooooody today, i tell you. thus the pathetic attempt at a post. i still appreciate comments/tags though. flood all you want. it makes me happy. :)

i know it's still early, but Merry Christmas, guys. enjoy the holidays! :)

I told you my blog is as squeaky clean as it can get

Elegie, by J. Massenet

I played this once on piano during a recital. It's such a wonderful song. (Medyo mahina to, so you might want to increase the volume. :D ) Enjoy guys!

Among other things

Has anybody noticed that I regularly change that "Currently Obsessing Over" thing on the sidebar? And that I added this thing recently on the side called "Picture of the Moment" and has a (cute) photo of Akanishi Jin in it (I revoke whatever I used to say about whoever being the cutest guy in the world, because whoever it was, I'm pretty sure he does not look better than Akanishi Jin.)

Those things aside (including the fangirling) I'm going to list down how I've changed ever since I began studying at the Ateneo. :)

1. I've become less of a homophobe. Not that I used to be a homophobe, I was just really uncomfortable with the topic of homos back when I was still a Stephenian. Reasons why I'm less freaked out now:
   
1. Homo teachers and classmates. Not that I have a lot, but I do have some. Like my lit teacher (probably the teacher with the most mentions in this blog. seriously.) he speaks so freely about his, ahem, boyfriend and I just try to ignore, but come on! the most homo i've encountered in St. Stephen's would have to be Mr. R**** but even he's not this bad...
   
2. Fluid. Nuff said.
3. The fangirling! A lot of other fangirls (not me, mind you) are obsessed with yaoi... okay... but really, these pretty boys, they don't care if others think they're homo so they just go around being all touchy feely with fellow pretty boys. Not that fangirls mind though. It's all just fanservice, folks.
4. The sheer amount of homos in Ateneo. They're everywhere!!!
   
2. I'm less of a procrastinator. Okay, scratch that. I'm still a huge procrastinator except that now I actually procrastinate rather than completely ignore schoolwork. There's a difference, okay? I actually DO my homework beforehand now. I even study for tests! :O *gasp*
3. I'm *in my opinion* a lot more open and friendly, note: less quiet. I mean, before I rarely talk to people I'm not familiar with, but now I actually DO. I'm surprised by myself. :D
4. (in connection to the previous item) I know a lot of new people... it's likely that I actually DO know 500 people! That, my friends, is an achievement. Well, at least for me.

That's all, loves.

OH SHOOT, E.S. PRELAB! XP

Song Sharing! Sakura Sake (Arashi); Naniwa Iroha Bushi (Kanjani8); Rokkugo (Super Junior T); Dancing Out (Super Junior)

Song Sharing Time! This time, though, instead of only mp3 clips, we have the entire videos! :D They're all in this embedded player thing. :D

BUT FIRST! Here are the intros! (I'm somewhat (trying to be) like a virtual DJ.)

First off we have Arashi's "Sakura Sake"! :) Another happy feel-good song. The video is weird at times, but it's inspiring *i think* because the song basically talks about youth and stuff.

Next we have "Naniwa Iroha Bushi" by Kanjani8, which is another band under Johnny's Entertainment, the same company that handles Arashi, KAT-TUN, Ikuta Toma, etc. This song is wonderful because it's just like a modernized Japanese Enka song which completely immerses us in Japanese culture. Even if you don't like boy bands, you might want to try out this song to learn more about Japan. :) This song is actually the first song of Kanjani8 that I've tried and I don't know anyone in it except for You Yokoyama (who starred as Seishiro in Yukan Club) and Nishikido Ryo (because I see his image all the time in LJ communities). Enjoy!

Our third video is of "Rokkugo!!!" by a subgroup of Super Junior, Super Junior T. The T stands for Trot which is a genre of Korean pop music aimed at adults. "Rokkugo!!!" is a play on the word "Gokkuro" which means "upside down" (so it's a pun, get it?) Anyway, the song is very high-energy, and it's also a great way to immerse in Korean culture, despite the song being a modernized version of trot (it has rap, after all).

The last video for today! :) This time it's by the entire Super Junior group, entitled "Dancing Out". A very happy song, in my opinion, similar to "Haeng Bok". Anyway, the video was filmed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and it shows just how pretty the city is... :D Enjoy!

And the videos!!!
