musings on useless topics

Sunday, April 27, 2008

I was just bored (okay, scratch that. I'm never not bored, anyway.)

So, I saw Hana Kimi (the Japanese version) the other day on GMA. It was the last episode and I was all, awww... it's over! Then I started thinking what other JDramas GMA would have in the future and I did a bit of research... apparently, they're getting a whole bunch of old dramas with minimal ikemen... why???

ABS is smarter... I mean, they got Wu Zun and Jiro and I bet they'll be showing Fahrenheit stuff next and trying to squeeze all they can out of the fangirling (just like what they did to F4). Does GMA not understand???

(Nahahawa na ako kay Krizia... frustrating over network wars that have nothing to do with me... :P)

At least I still have DVDs and the internet... without those, my life would be over! (kidding. i won't die, but i'll walk around like a zombie, that's for sure)

sorry about the *sort-of* fangirling. heh.

aww i'm so loved haha (feeler ako eh)

I'll just do 8 facts thingy first, okay? (Share na lang kayo, Denice and Cheryl :) )

Share 8 things that your readers don't know about you.
Then at the end you tag 8 other bloggers to keep the fun going.
– Each blogger must post these rules first.
– Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
– Bloggers who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
– At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
– Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.

  1. I dont want to tag people anymore... I'm running out of friends. D,:
  2. Um. I don't eat raw fish. Have I mentioned this already?
  3. My favorite sushi is tamago, that sweet yummy egg omelette. :P
  4. I enjoy looking at Korean fashion (for girls I mean. Korean guys dress like gays. *sorry no offense*) especially on those dramas... I don't know if real Koreans dress that way... but nd that is why I'm always on this site... (Oh the girliness!)
  5. My hairstyle evolves a lot... it began with short hair with bangs during my kiddie days until elementary then sometime in Grade 6 I started sporting a ponytail complete with matching headband. In high school I got rid of the hairband (as I remember it. I could be wrong) Then sometime later during 4th year I got around to rebonding my (sabog) hair and let it down. I gave up and went back to ponytails during college though, because I commute and my hair does not keep me any cooler. So there. The history of Charmaine's hair. As if you care. (I'm rhyming, aren't I?)
  6. I read online comics such as Kawaii Not, Nemu-Nemu, and Multiplex.
  7. I'm out of things to saaay!!! I... uh... have this short story I wrote for the Stephenian Voice but sadly, it was never published. It was my pride and joy, too. :( If you're a fictionpress member, feel free to leave a review! :D
  8. I am currently addicted to this song, which happens to be the theme song for Binbo Danshi, an Oguri Shun drama. It's such a nice, warm, happy song. :D Even the rap parts are great! I especially love the lead singer's vocals and the instrumentals... :)
Yay! I'm done with that one!

Next, 10 words that start with R thanks to Richelle! :)

  1. Richelle - haha! she tagged me! :) we share a common love for Japanese anime and dramas... :P
  2. Rainbow - yay! be happy! (no connection haha)
  3. Rich - what I want to be someday...
  4. Ruler - a tool for measuring. Also a person with power over something or someone.
  5. Review - what I should start doing next school year in order to achieve my goal of getting into the DL!
  6. Rice - the staple of Filipino food. According to Krizia, bakit hindi na lang sila magkamote???
  7. Rachelle/Rachel - I know a lot of people named Rachelle or Rachel... :D Hi Rachelle! Hi Rachel!
  8. Rotonda - sabi ni Janine rotonda daw yung Lorenzo Ruiz Plaza. Sabi ko hindi, kasi oval siya. May sense naman, di ba???
  9. Repeat - I don't like repeating myself.
  10. Robles - that place with lots of marble...
I'm all done! Thank you! >:D<

I'm not going to tag anymore for the reason stated above... haha :D

I cooked...

...a cheese omelette.

Omelette du fromage! (Or however it's spelled anyway...)

It was yummy, although a little burnt.

Ask Cheryl if you don't believe me!

10 things that start with the letter F

Monday, April 21, 2008

Tinag ako ni Karen! Yay! Haha, feel ko pa naman dati unloved ako kasi walang nagtatag sa akin pero ngayon alam ko na na loved ako (ang corny ko kasi!)

O sige, letter F daw...

  1. Family! Yay! I love these people, they're the best!
  2. Friends! The best din kayo pero cyempre family first dapat!
  3. Fangirl - That's me! (joke lang, i'm not that much of a fangirl, really. Gusto ko lang)
  4. Fahrenheit - For some of you, ito ung unit of temperature. For the others, it's that Taiwanese boyband. :D
  5. Firefox - Web browser ko (nauubusan na ako ng words eh)
  6. Flowers - favorite flower ko...
  7. Forget-me-not - naks naman.
  8. Fly - some people dream of flying. I don't. Naiisip ko langaw.
  9. Food - bakit nauna ko pa naisip ung fly kaysa sa food? weird din ako noh...
  10. France - it's a country. kakabasa ko lang sa blog ni Gilbert na di daw nya despise yung France pero di din nya gusto... that's all I think of when I think of France... ang sad ng life ko.

to compensate for the postless 17 or 18 days (now you know why I'm gonna fail accounting)

i want a new template.

sooooo... next week, my mom will be out every morning (may classes siya. teacher siya, remember?) and if you were paying attention, wala yung maid namin. in short, nobody's going to cook.

and well. haha. if you don't know what i'm getting at, then that means i'm an idiot.

and no, my sister does not cook. nor does she wake up before lunch time.

All that Cooking Mama practice is FINALLY going to be put to use.

So, yeah. If you cook (I bet SOME of you do) will you tell me what I should cook and how to cook it? Because I'm sure my family wouldn't want to eat disgusting food, and/or have food poisoning, and/or what else would ensue from my, ahem, culinary adventures.

Moving on...

For the past two weeks during which my blog was dead, I was actually playing the DS (you would know this if you read my sister's blog) since my dad recently bought that thingy which lets you download games from the Net and play them on the DS for free.

  1. Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney - A very fun game for somebody like me who has zero hand-eye coordinations skills (or whatever it is they call it) because all you do is read and poke at evidence and yell "Objection!" and wait and see if you lose, in which case you have to do everything again until you get it right. Because even in this game, I suck! XD That does not mean I did not have fun, however, because it was way cool and although the coincidences are just ridiculous, it's still cool. :D
  2. Hotel Dusk: Room 215 - Another read-and-poke game. No action whatsoever. I haven't finished this because it's pretty long. It's doesn't even feel like a game, because it's more of a mystery novel. Not exactly fun, but it's pretty interesting.
  3. Professor Layton and the Curious Village - Another mystery game but this time, it's filled with puzzles that kept me frustrated but entertained. I finished it, and I loved it, but it will be some time before I solve more puzzles. :)
  4. Animal Crossing: Wild World - If you've played/seen Animal Crossing for GameCube, this is pretty much like that one except with a few added features (more storage! ^.^) I haven't played it long enough to fully explore it but it's addictive, to say the least. And if you're bored, you can always do what I did and sort the flowers according to type and color. XD If anybody had this game, will somebody be nice enough to visit my town so I can get Nookington's? :D
That's all for now. I'd talk about dramas, but sadly, I didn't finish any dramas during my hiatus. I'm ashamed of myself.

EDIT: I'll be using this layout for now kasi nakakahilo yung dati :P

hello~

Ely online ako ngayon. :P

Our maid is out of town. Kaya walang pupunta sa bahay ko, except if you want to meet my new pet, Dust Bunny.

In case you were wondering what happened to Chestnutty, by the way, I gave it to Isen because my mom doesn't want plants in the house. I wanted to put Chestnutty out on the balcony, but oh well. It's in good hands :D

4 people answered my survey... walang hiya, may nagsabing "Hello! Study Hard! Hope you become a DL soon. :)" Yeah. I hope I do too. XD Hehe, joke lang, peace tau, whoever you are.

i shall now guess who wrote what...

"wheeeee! hi charmie." -> Si ely to! Siya lang kasi ang hyper at siya lang din (at least I think so) ang "heard about it from somebody else". Siya rin ang unang nagrespond, and cya ang unang nagleave ng message sa aking tagboard kaya i am 100% si ely yan! Hi elyyyyyy!

"magpost ka pa!!! tulog lagi blog mo! haha" -> akala ko nung una si candice to pero hindi kasi ung 4th ung kay candice. and so it's krizia! :D *i think* siya lang ung nagtatagalog hehe, so it's krizia~ and besides, cya ung 2nd na nagtag. XD

"Hello! Study Hard! Hope you become a DL soon. :)" -> I have no idea who this is. haha. actually, I have a hunch but I'm not so sure about it. Whoever you are, magparamdam ka naman! :D

"Hi! Please update more often...haha..." -> ito ata si candice. okay, now i'm not sure anymore. XD ewan ko, bahala na kayo dyan haha. oh wait i'm sure. may time pala ung survey results. :D

To the others, answer the survey! :D

Moving on...

Nag-aadvance ako ng accounting ngayon, as in naghanap ako ng sariling tutor to teach me. it's so hard! it's all fine during discussion, but when it comes to problem solving... wala. dead. mali lahat ng sagot ko sa exercises. THAT'S WHY kailangan ko nang mag-aral ngayon pa lang if I don't want to get kicked out of BMH.

Naiinggit ako sa layout ni Krizia. ang cute eh. hehehe :D magpapalit na rin ako ;) nasasawa na rin ako sa layout ko kasi nakakaduling tsaka yun din ung theme sa cellphone ko and i'm sick of it! :D

bye now! haha :D ang random ng post na to, sorry. XD

this is my 400th post yet my life still has no meaning

Thursday, April 17, 2008

heh heh heh...

(that's nervous laughter, in case you were wondering)

that's not completely true... my life DOES have meaning, and i'm very happy with everything (except for my grades. i hate my grades.)

hmm. so, since it's my 400th post, i created a survey all about my blog! this time, it has nothing to do with schoolwork (lucky little me managed to avoid summer school) (ignore my horrible grammar)

Now SHOO! Go answer!
