Mew! well another chapter in my life has ended. and honestly di ko lam kung pano ako magrereact. I'm kinda sad knowing that my life will not be the same as before. for years i have been living my life thinking that i have everything i need. a little patience and love and im all set to settle. but then, life is so erratic. we cannot really predict what might happen or will happen in the future. we are but watchers in our own life. we may have some effect on our life but in the end it is still our destiny who will lead us to where we should be. and as for me, destiny has not been that kind. sobrang hirap at masakit yung road na naglead sa mga nangyari this past few weeks and months. ang mahirap dun is hindi sya biglaan, it's a long and very tiring process. im not saying na i grew tired of loving her. its just i grew tired of all the things im doing. i needed to have a break, an escape, or maybe i just dont want to return to my old routine life. sabi nga ni einstein (na nabasa ko sa blog ni anjie) "stupidity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results" oh well, that's life. minsan talaga medyo tanga tayo. tanga dahil feeling natin ang ginagawa natin ay tama, or we make ourselves believe that we are doing the right thing. pero yun.. i guess this is the end, the beginning. sabi nga ni Robert Jordan "there are neither beginnings nor endings in the turning of the wheel (of time). But it was a beginning"

Time Management

2007-07-06T22:23:00.000+08:00

Wow! more than 2 months na pala ako hindi nagpopost. I imported a new layout as you can see. ang cute lang nya. actually mas ok kung abstract na lang. pero naaliw kasi ako dun sa mga bilog. :D

In other news, NS-13 has arrived! 12 days ago. :D one of the biggest update in Kingdom of Loathing has arrived. With 300+ new items, hundreds of new monsters, and a million reason to laugh. actually sobrang laki ng pinagbago nya ngayon. mas balanse na ang mga players. kahit hindi ka donor e kaya mo na magcompete sa mga donors. which makes it more interesting to play. :D

Meanwhile, in my real life, so many things have changed this semester. I felt more responsible. I can feel na I control my life na. dati kasi parang "lost" ako. super challenging ng sem na to and at the same time masaya. (eventhough medyo nagiinarte and bespren ko dahil sa crop circle :P) masaya kasi graduating na ko hihihi. tapos may design subject ako na masaya at meron akong masayang thesis topic. :D actually katatapos ko lang itype yung outline ko kanina. mga 10 hours din ako nagtype. heheh i really should stop playing. sobrang hindi sa akin ang time ko this sem. kakainin ng adviser ko at ng mga partners ko sa design at ni sir rex and time ko. i barely have 4 - 5 hours of sleep. i cant even finish Good Omens by Neil Gaiman. buti na lang may mga kaibigan ako at mga masisipag na groupmates at sobrang bait na mga instructors at sobrang maalagain na advisers (teka ubos na straw ko kakasipsip :D) ayun, as the title implies, the key to finishing this sem is time management. and of course without "me" there's no time management. :D have a good day!

The End is the Beginning is the End

yey! tapos naang sem! i can't believe na kaya ko pala magpaka-aik sa pag-aaral. though it was very tiring and time consuming, kung meron ka namang kadamay sa mga oras na yun nagiging masaya sya. oo nasayang ang most ng mga weekends ko sa mga meetings at kung ano anong academic activities pero i dont think na maipagpapalit ko yun sa kung ano man ang binalak kong gawin kung wala yun. sobrang fulfilling pag nakikita mo yung resulta ng paghihirap mo. :D di nga ako makapaniwala na nakaperfect pa ko sa isang exam na inakala kong pinakamababa ko. sobrang saya at hirap pala maging diligent. sana noon ko pa to ginawa. :D sana lang payagan pa ako ng university na tapusin ko yung course ko. isang sem na lang. kaya ko to. :D

To Skewed Peeps: oi yung tshirt

To H5 peeps: mga tolsk salamat sa kuryente at mga pc at mga kung ano anong bagay. eventhough lagi nyo kong inabadtrip sa mga "hugutin" text nyo ok parin kayo. :D

To ChE165 groupmates: sensya na kung mataray yung text ko nung sunday. wala kasi kaming pera pangprint hehe

To Ria: aking driver, salamat sa lahat ha? hmmmm alam mo na yun kung ano-ano yun lagi na nating pinaguusapan yun e. salamat sa oras at kung ano anong bagay. :D basta kinontrata na kita sa plant design ha. :D *pokemon face*

To Kimchie: mew!

ToMiming: salamat sa suporta *hug* kahit medyo tulog ako pag gising ka at sobrang active ako pag naglalaway ka sa higaan mo. >.< thank you! i love you!

Salamat sa inyo! :D

Recollecting

The storm after the calm has passed. it's been two days now since we faced teh ultimate test in che165. we reported our topic about perforated plate column design to our instructor/department head Prof Rex Demafelis. all of us were very scared, excited, and worried before we reported. na-OOC kami kasi di kami sure kung mapapansin ba ni sir yung calculations namin tapos ano ba yung mga itatanong nya. sobrang nakakakaba. pero ayun, it started. it started smoothly until nung sinabi ni Serge na yung supposedly plate spacing e naging plate thickness. dun na nagsimula yung barrage of questions ni sir. pero nasagot at naayos naman kagad namin. after him Ria reported and madaming tinanong si sir na di naman part ni ria pero since lahat kami ay alam namin lahat ng topics, kahit sino ang tanungin ni sir sa amin about the report masasagot ng kahit sino sa amin. :D actually na-appreciate ko talaga mga groupmates ko nung time na yun. nung una iniisip ko na kung kami lang nina ria ang OC tapos maayos nga yung part namin, baka ang humila sa amin is yung iba naming groupmates. pero nagkamali ako. :D we reported individually but we answered as a group. nakakatuwa yung synergy naming lahat. as compared to other groups, pag sinabi ni sir na help him/her lahat kami ay naguunahan para tulungan yung groupmate namin. sobrang naging smooth flowing yung report kahit ang daming tanong si sir. wala na nga syang nagawa kungdi magtanong at tumango. and the best part is yet to come. nung sa calculations na halos di kami makahinga sa sobrang kaba pag nagtatanong si sir. pero ok naman pag nasagot namin para kaming binubunutan ng malaking tinik sa lalamunan sa tuwing nasasagot namin ang mga tanong ni sir. and at the end i was just so happy na natapos na kami pero what made my day/week/ and even my sem was sir's comment... "Hmmm Good! I liked your report, very well said and done. Nacapture nyo yung attention ng class kahit umabot tayo ng 2 hours." kahit may mga complications pa ng konti yung calculations ok na yun! what matters is that kami ang kaisa-isang group na sinabihan ni sir rex nun. :D ang sarap ng feeling.. lahat kami sa group high na high nung gabing yun. :D

On the Seventh day

2007-03-18T22:13:00.000+08:00

God made it so that we can rest. :D al long last tapos na din ang powerpoint at calculation namin sa Perforated plate column!! hayyy... I'm so happy >.< Tomorrow is teh hell week na :D

On the Sixth day

2007-03-17T21:38:00.000+08:00

I spent the whole day staring at Ria's laptop and made a finished a 104 slide powerpoint presentation. plus hindi pa nailalagay yung calculatios. so all in all baka umabot ng 200+ yun. masaya naman kasama yung mga groupmates ko kasi active sil pero sobrang nakakapagod lang talaga. :D 8 days till Armageddon. I cant wait! I want to get this over with! ciao ciao Im off to my HE design :D

Dilemma!

2007-03-17T07:29:00.000+08:00

OMG! I suddenly woke up this morning because I realized that on monday we will have an exam in ChE 142 at 7pm. I also have a Perforated Plate Distillation Column report scheduled at 7pm. I was planning on taking an advanced exam when I realized that we also have a ChE170 report at 4 - 5:30pm. T_T how am i going to take the exam and do the reports on monday T_T

On the fifth day

2007-03-16T16:28:00.000+08:00

This must be the most tiresome friday ever. woke up at 6 to start my chem 111.1 post lab, went to Chem engg dept at aroung 7:30 to write 3 post labs then at around 10 i finished it. then moved on to finishing our written report in ChE165 which is due today then we ate at 12. after eating we continued the written report. we have heard several reports about the other group who had presented theirs and they said that Sir Rex raped them with questions. argh! pano pa kaya yung samin.. =( well the good news is ako ang highest sa fluid flow system design. actually nagulat ako e, i wasn't expecting my work to be that good. for one, my layout was handwritten so more or less mas madumi sya sa in-autocad na drawing. tanggap ko na nga na talo ako ni ria sa design na yun e kaya balak ko sana bumawi sa HE design kasi busy sya hehehe. pero as it turned out biased si Sir Geron (sabi ni Ria), his decision was in favor of me. ngayon napaisip ako, pano ko natalo si Ria.. Tapos may sinabi si Cherrie (*hug*) sakin, "siguro yung folder yun" hahaha! tingin ko nga yung folder yun. kaya Ria, sa susunod gumamit ka ng folder. :D anyway, ayun tapos yung first exam namin sa ChE170 pang-2nd ako tapos third si Ria. though masaya ako na talo ko ulit sya malaki pa ang lamang nya nung 2nd exam.. kaya kelangan ko sya bawian next exam >:D grabe OC mode na to! :D sana lang maayos ang maging result ng report namin sa 165 at 170 sa monday.. anyway bye na muna aral muna ako para sa chem. :D and to officially end my day, i have an exam at 7pm. bow!

~';,,;'~ --> blah!

2007-03-15T09:13:00.000+08:00

arrrr... i shold be doing something right now but i dont have the energy and the drive to do it. i should be finishing my Heat Exchanger design but because i made the wrong assumption i have to recompute 6 long pages again... i should be finishing 3 ful reports in chem but.. im too tired.. what's happening to me.. 2 days na kong ganito.. ang daming gagawin ang daming ipapasa yet im still here in front of you whining about my lazyness.. I always tell my groupmates na kaya naming tapusin yung report before friday pero I myself doesn't believe that I can pull that off. ang dami ko pang idadagdag at gagawin dun sa report na yun.... hay... It's not stress.. Im just too lazy.. hay... tapo nadelay pa yung che170 report namin tapos gabi pa yung report namin sa 165 tapos wala pa kaming calculations tapos di ko pa natatapos iedit yung powerpoint ng 165... (para na kong si P-chan *atsui atsui~!*) no offense meant. :D pero ayun just want to rant... wala kasi akong output ng mga rants ko e.. kaya ikaw na lang kung sino ka mang nagbabasa ng blog ko. sensya na ha? emo kid ako today e... cut myself, hang myself, cry in the corner.. blah blah blah

I'm the ghost student of UPLB

2007-03-14T08:29:00.000+08:00

I was browsing one of SystemOne's features which is the Checklist option wherein you can check the list of recommended courses as well as your remaining courses and units. When I searched my name this is what the site told me Notice the highlighted part. Null!? Hahaha! mukhang ayaw na ata ako pag-aralin ng UP e. :D I know this has something to do with their incomplete database pero nakakatawa lang. :D so ironic..

Positive frustrations

2007-03-13T08:46:00.000+08:00

It's been years since I've had this feeling.. yung feeling ng nagwoworry ka kasi hell week na. I've been doing quite good this semester. actually this is one of my best semester (well next dun sa sem na naging College Scholar ako). pero eto ako ngayon worried na worried dahil ang daming requirements, well actually madami din akong time pero... ayun nahahaluan ng katamaran. Kapag mag-isa ako I always tell myself na it's about time to start ending of my college life. Ending not in the way that someone I knew defined. Ending na yun tipong grumraduate ako sa UP kasi natapos ko yung course at hindi dahil nadismiss ako or something. As far as i know chem lang ang iffinals ko pero yung requirements grabe matangkad pa ata sa akin pag pinagpatong-patong. Design, report, exam, assignment, design, powerpoint, written report, oral report, full report, exam... grabe nahihilo na ako.. nakakapagod, nakakastress (lalo na kung walang stress reliever), Minsan naiisip ko na this is just a waste of precious time na sana inispend ko na lang yung time na yun with my friends, nakakabadtrip pag minsan. Pero kapag nakita mo yung result ng pinaghirapan mo like you see a 1.0 somewhere in your test paper, pag sinabi ng instructor mo na "wag mo na baguhin yan uno na yan e", pag yung tipong kahit talo ka ng rival mo ok lang kasi lamang lang sya ng 1.5 points at kayo ang top 2 sa exams and the third placer is around 20-30 points behind, nakakatuwa. You feel so elated. parang feel mo na UP student ka talaga. Nakakasawa din maging bum, i've been a bum for like 7 years and this is the first time that I started and ended the semester seriously. Mahirap maging diligent, mahirap imaintain ang standing, mahirap makakuha ng uno sa classcard, pero UP student ako e walang mahirap mahirap sa amin. Nakakatamad lang :D

Teh Ilijan Power Plant field trip and "plant" inspection

2007-03-09T08:32:00.000+08:00

Last March 4, 2007 our class in Chemical Engineering 199 (PLant Inspection and Seminar) had a field trip in KEILCO Ilijan Combined Cycle Power Plant in Batangas. We departed at around 6 am. and by 7 am we are already in Star Tollway. Ang akala ko malapit na since yung Star Tollway yung nagcoconnect sa batangas sa ibang parte ng Southern Luzon. pero hinde! grabe inabot kami ng 3 oras from the Star Tollway to the Power plant. But the journey there was fun. Buti na lang hindi mga kj ang kasama ko sa van, sobrang kulit nila. Tsaka hindi ako ang pinakamatanda sa van :D at least may ka-age ako na kasama. hehehe pero masaya kasama ang barkada ni Ria. :D sobrang enjoy sa van lalo na nung nag-travel back in time kami. may nadaanan kami na baranggay na ang color theme ng bahay at fence pati na yung mga bato na nakapaligid at yellow, green, at pink. Tapos ang daming parol, so nafigure-out namin na pasko pa lang dun sa town nayun. and as we go farther, the father we travel back in time. There's this village na ang name ay "Good Man's village" so we though na panahon pa ng mga Amerikano yung time dun. And yung last town na nadaanan namin before the Power Plant ay panahon pa ata ni Rajah Sulaiman. Nakakatawa nga e, yung isa pang town nangangampanya pa lang si gloria dun, 2004 ata yung time dun. heheh after 4 long hours we arrived at the power plant. di sya ganun kaexciting as i expected. i have been on a combined cycle power plant, first gas ata yun. tapos mas ok pa yung trip dun. actually badtrip yung tour namin sa power plant, we only went to the control room and the water treatment facility. ang corny! sa first gas pumunta kami sa turbine and generator room. tsaka sobrang wala akong nakuhang info na mahalaga sa plant inspection. Si Ria ata sa sobrang corny nung trip e medyo iba na ang pagkakaintindi sa plant inspection :P she inspected different kinds of plants :D well 1/4 of the time sa plant nagtour kami, the other 1/4 went to eating, and the remaining 1/2 went to sleeping. grabe boring! pero pagbalik namin sa van nagkabuhay ulit. :D as i have said earlier, Ria planned to inspect some "plants". actually balak nya talaga kunan ng picture yung power plant from a different angle pero sa tuwing iccapture nya haharangan yung image ng mga "plants" hehehe all in all we enjoyed the trip to the plant and the trip back to LB. regarding the tour in the power plant, mas ok pa sana kung nagcasual trip na lang kami sa different plants dun sa place since madaming plants dun na pwede iinspect. Tsaka di ba nila nahahalata na sawang-sawa na ang mga Chem Engg Students sa power plants! ang dami daming ibang plants na pwede iinspect bakit kaya power plant pa.. it would have been a lot educational kung dun kami na cement plant or petrochemical plant ng JG summit. wala lang. :D

Here are some of the pics dun sa trip namin :D

Ayun o!
Vanmates unite!
Ang ganda ng view!
Mindoro ata yun o
SoX yuck!
Hindi plant Inspection!

Tonight we dine.. in hell!

2007-03-08T08:20:00.000+08:00

grabe di ko alam kung matutuwa ako o mababadtrip ako. well mostly natuwa naman ako. actually wala naman talaga ako plans yesterday to do anything eventhough medyo ramdam na ang hell week the Chem Engg depoartment. tapos i decided to start and finish the ChE170 report. grabe simula 8:30am till mga 6:00pm gumagawa ako ng report. hindi naman kami nagrurush kasi next week pa naman yun pero. i never imagined the kaya ko mag-acad mode ng ganun... actually di ko pa nga ata nagagawa yun in ever sa UPLB life ko.. well i wouldn't have done it if not for my partner/rival/friend/hdhe na si Ria. well i guess it's time to thank her for everything. God really has a funny way of showing a person the right path.. :D malapit na kasi mawala ang buhay ko sa kung saang kanto.. i just hope it's not too late to return to my true path.. with 2 weeks to go till hell week, i am very prepared to take you on! tonight.. we dine.. in hell! >:D

Ads, Blogs, and Playstation Portable

2006-12-23T15:48:00.000+08:00

All I want for Xmas is a PSP

Nowadays, web logs; commonly known as blogs are as rampant as mushrooms sprouting after a storm. Almost every person i know has a blog. even a 10-year old has a blog! But the most groundbreaking news I've ever encountered was using blogs to advertise. A couple of days ago I've read from a news network site that Sony Computer Entertainment America apparently used a PR blog to advertise their product,the Playstation Portable. What's amusing or rather shocking for some is that they used an imaginary hip-hop musician named "Charlie" to praise the said product. the blog aimed to help children coerce their moms to buy PSP's with the help of the said blog. Some people found it very offending using imaginary people to praise their product. The issue has been very widespread until recently Sony finally admitted that they really did that and editing "Charlie"'s blog saying that they have been "a little too clever". Well in my opinion it really is not an issue whether Sony used and imaginary boy to advertise, it's their job after all. It's like praising your Nintendo Wii for being very innovative and creative in their design when in fact the controller really sucked ass (who in the right mind would think of throwing their Wii controller at your TV?). What I'm trying to say is that even if Sony used blogs to praise their PSP it is still up to our parents if they will buy the product or not. In a 3rd world country like the Philippines I don't think that will have a very large effect. But still I'm hoping that the next time my mom surfs the net, she would glance upon that wonderful blog. Unfortunately http://alliwantforxmasisapsp.com has been removed by SCEA. T_T

Resolutions

2006-11-30T12:11:00.000+08:00

ok now that the semester is already starting i think it's time to make some resolutions. im not the type to make resolutions but i think i really need it this time (if i want to graduate). anyway, here goes:

1.Acads gets the top priority:
-even if it's just an assignment or a seatwork or teh design I want to spend my time first finishing every requirements before anything else

2.Minimize O2jam and other games:
-since ive been playing all my life here in UPLB i think it's time to cut my playing time to 25% at the most. i cant really remove playing in my system because im a hardcore gamer and it's the only way i can get rest from all those requirements.

3.Miming gets the next priority after acads.
-i love her.

4.Go home early:
-10pm-11pm at the most.

5.Aim for 1.0:
-i know it's very hard to get an uno especially in my course but still it's not impossible.

6.Aim for the sky, at least you fall on the roof:
-always aim for the highest grade.

7.Be creative:
-this concerns my ChE165. i need to be creative in order to get a high grade. i will not allow my laziness to conquer me.

8.Don't forget that you have friends:
-never take them for granted. theyll add to the stress if you do so.

9.Have Fun:
-im an expert at this. :D

that's about it. i hope i can accomplish them all. :D i love you cherrie! mwah!

"Heaven falls. Details at eleven."

2006-11-24T20:29:00.001+08:00

i know i'm double posting pero i just found this very nice and very short story by robert jordan. :D here's the story: "Heaven falls. Details at eleven." that's it. apparently the fantasy writer's world is trying to acoomplish the same goal Ernest Hemmingway did when he wrote his 6-word short story "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." which he called it his best work ever. so dragonmount.com asked robert jordan to write a very short story. and that's what he wrote. i don't know if you get the story but if you are a wheel of time fan you will be very much amazed at the amount of details he put in that 5-word story. :D i just love Knife of Dreams :D

2006-07-24T20:18:00.000+08:00

sigh.. the presence of "ka" is thin in this region..

there's no one here except BScat (Kimchie the trash cat). I'm starting to consider BScat as a good companion though she just stares at me then pounces on stuff then bites my ankle.. arrr Celsus is not around either.. good thing Danielle (asheara: o2jam IGn) kept me company.. we played a round of songs and that felt good. But a while ago she left for dinner.. I'm hungry..

Ka really is thin in this region... and it's getting thinner.. kelan ka ba uwi dito? daan ka naman... nyuu~~~ mishu "ka"...

btw, i would like to thank Dani for giving me this wonderful avatar. ID HUK!

It's a Beautiful day!

2006-07-16T14:30:00.000+08:00

ID HUK!

just finished my round of songs in o2mania. My arms are kinda tired so I decided to search the net before playing o2jam. I recently made new friends in o2jam and it feels good. But master Celsus has been cruel to me T_T but he's been a great teacher. I have recently reached level 40 but it feels like i haven't acquired the power of level 40 yet. sigh... a level 42 with a level 26 skill.. oh well... practice practice!! ^^ ID HUK!

anyway, there's nothing new in my life this past 1 1/2 months. my first exam this sem will be on thursday and i havent studied yet..

ok, done with my academic update. on the lighter side of my life, my dear "ka" has just been accepted in a call center somewhere in makati or alabang.. hohoho she really is ID HUK! Im so proud of her. :D ID HUK "ka"!

BSAT, a taekwondo varsity org here in UPLB where I'm included recently held an orientation. it was good.. really good.. Jr and me sparred that night and I was happy that I was chosen to spar. ID HUK!

traina and hirap mag-english! ID HUK!

I should be doing something

2006-06-20T14:43:00.000+08:00

Sigh.. classes starts today.. my 8th year in college.. i sure hope this will be my last year in UPLB.. i really want to graduate this time.. unfortunately i dont have a class in my one and only subject today.. Eco11 lecture. so i am here in front of Andrew's pc.. bumming.. doing nothing when i should be doing something. arghh... why am i so lazy... oh well... i think i just need my "someone" to keep me from moving on.. sadly, that "someone" is in muntinlupa right now.. bumming... doing nothing when she should be doing something too. :P anyway, that line magically woke my system.. so goodbye for now. i think i'm going to train a bit then head to CEAT then go home. ill try to be diligent this time around.. let's see what happens. ciao!

End of Summer

2006-06-11T03:25:00.000+08:00

3:23am H5

Summer, my best summer vacation ever is about to end.. time to start a new life in UPLB.. as a diligent student.. impossible as it may seem I'm looking forwards to seeing myself study hard before an examination or reviewing notes while waiting for the class to start. fun time is over, it's time for me to get serious with my life if I plan on doing something with it. it's very hard to imagine myself beign serious in my academics and it's a lot harder when I'm already doing it. the only thing that will push me to carry on will be the memories my friends and i created this summer..

April: Probably the happiest day in Cherrie's life. after 6 long years Cherrie has finally graduated college.. I can still remember the old days when i have to go fetch her just to make sure she attends the next class. those wonderful afternoons where Im always looking forward to walking with you to Crossing because Im able to rest my hands on your shoulders and pretending that Im your boyfrend ^^... hehehe... sobrang dami na natin pinagdaanan.. sana eto pa lang ang simula ng kalsada nating dalawa. ^_^

March-May: summer classes! and the good thing is... wala akong klase! grabe ang sarap pala magbakasyon.. naaalala ko pa nung bata ako ayaw na ayaw ko ng summer vacation kasi walang baon tapos di makalabas kasi walang pera at bata pa... pero ngayon basta may pamasahe ako sige lang! labas lang ng labas! heehe para nga akong border sa bahay namin ngayong summer e. aalis ng tanghali babalik ng gabi... nakakaguilty minsan kasi di ko natututlungan si mama pero teh hell! first time ko lang nakapagsummer break in 7 years! :D of course inubos ko ang oras ko sa taekwondo. nagpalakas ng katawan... :D may naidulot namang maganda dahil naka-gold medal naman ako sa tournament namin.. hohohoh!!!

May (post summer classes): walang katapusang kalokohan. laro ng ragnarok, nood ng drama, halohalo, kwentuhan (tungkol sa ragna), densha otoko... at ang sobrang nakakaiyak na Summer Snow (thumbs up for you dianne dahil pinapanoodm o sa amin kahit lahat tayo umiyak... though tumatawa si andrew habang nanonood kami hula ko naiyak din un lololz!)

ang saya noh? para sa akin hindi masaya yan. ang masaya sa akin ay yung mga paminsanminsang pagdalawa ni Cherrie dito sa lb para lang makita ako. yung ang dahilan kung bakit ako masaya ngayong summer vacation. sya ang kumukumpleto sa buhay ko. sya na nga lahat ang magdedefine ng lhat ng gusto ko sa aking buhay, (well except siguro sa katamaran nya) .. :D pero ang masasabi ko sa inyo lokohin nyo na ko sa ragnarok, ipamukha nyo na sa akin na nagpakasal kayo or magkaparty kayo or magkausap kayo, walang talab yun. dahil sa oras na bisitahin ako ni cherrie ngingitian ko na lang kayo dahil ako kayakap ko sya. kayo hinde! bleh! :P:P hehehe mahal na mahal ko yan si cherrie kahit na madalas nakikita nyo na di kami mushy o sweet sa isa'tisa.. teh hell kayong lahat. mahal ko sya mahal nya ko, yun na yun.

This is my best summer vacation dahil nandito parin si cherrie *thumps fist to chest* at walang kayang pumalit dun..

Just finished reading the Dark Tower series. And for now let me be the wordslinger. Thankee-sai!

The Dark Tower series tells the tale of Roland Deschain and his qeust for the elusive Dark Tower. The sotry begins in Out-World where Roland chases the "man in black" whom he think knows the way to the Dark Tower. In his journey, he draws 3 companions from our world to accompany him in his quest. What's so capturing about the book is how the author connects our world to Roland's world and to other worlds as well. While the main plot is Roland's quest to reach to Dark Tower (not to save it I tell yah, but to reach it and find out just what is inside) the character development remains rich in pertinent detail while preserving the mood of the story. In other words, there never was a dull moment in the series. As the story progresses, the excitement increases exponentially leaving the readers gasping for air by the time they reach the last book. The book was masterfully done and exquisitely rich with details, many readers will either praise Sai-King or condemn him to hell by the time they finish the book. But we should always remember that Sai-King did not made these things up, he only wrote down what he saw.

While I was reading the series, two questions persistently troubles my mind every now and then, and maybe as a reader of The Dark Tower series you might probably encounter these questions. "What will happen to Roland after he reaches the Tower? and "What is inside the Tower?" But I know you all know the answer, most of us just can't accept it.

It's ka

And as for me, Ves-Ka'Gan sings beautifully inside my head. what more can i ask for?! :D

Long day and pleasant nights! Thankee-sai! :D

The other day Celsus informed us that there was to be a DotA tournament the next day somewhere in San Antonio. Andrew and I wanted to join but unfortunately our teammate Gelosas wasn't around so we kinda decided not to join unless we manage to get our third member. Yesterday while Cherrie and I were playing DotA AI in h5, Andrew and Dianne came and informed us that team Gebranka (Celsus, Marksman, Ewan) were banned from the DotA tourney which was to be held that day at 5:30 pm. So Andrew decided to forego with joining the tourney with Dianne as our third member. Although Dianne was very pressured by our advices she still enlisted herself as our team member. when we arrived there we discovered that we can afford to have an alternate member, so we decided to pick Celsus as our alternate. Since it was the Team Gebranka who were banned and not the individual players. so with Dianne off the hook, we started the match with confidence and great pressure because I was dumb enough to put Gebranka as our team name. we had to live up to that name or be damned by celsus's team for the rest of our lives.

The first match was against Team Ziggurat (whom I've heard were the ones who requested for Marksman's team to be banned). The lineup was as followed

Scourge: Me/Lich , Drew/Medusa , Celsus/Krobelus

Sentinel: Rhasta , Sven , Sniper

the match was good but what brought them down was their WTF item build, Skill tree, and their WTF farming. Sniper decided to make a caster sniper, Cleaving Sven, and Double Eul's rhasta. while rhasta managed to pawn Andrew's ass in the early game, sniper and sven were very outmatched in their lane. also they were surprized by our new hunting tactics which was the "Need help? ill TP = Ownage" tactic. also after medusa got enough money from farming while me and cel manages to push the 3 heroes with just the 2 of us, he managed to have his revenge with rhasta. :D the match was good. one thing i couldn'y forget was when we ambushed sven while farming in the bottom lane with 15 of our creeps. basta pinanood lang namin sya magfarm habang binabarya sya ng creep namin tapos nung kalahati na lang buhay nya saka namin pinatay. napakaWTF talaga :P

The Second match was against some team from Calamba daw. basta ang masasabi ko lang... kilala nyo sina padizo? yung naglalaro sa Gandalf na may kasamang girl na naglalaro? kaya nilang durugin yun team na yun ng walang hirap. the match was like a break for us. the line-up were:

Scourge: Me/Lich , Celsus/Krob , Drew/Doom

Sentinel: Morphling , Rhasta , Syllabear

basta nakakatawa. panoorin nyo na lang yung replay. natatawa talaga ako level 3 first blod ni Lich. grabe yun yung pinakamabilis kong first blood. lvl 10 na ako yung rhasta 5 pa lang yta o 4. basta wtf talaga. nasiraan kami ng 1 tower kasi pabaya si andrew (hehe joke lang!), basta nagpupush na kasi kami nun tapos nagttrip na lang kami kaya di namin napansin na binabasag na pala ng creep yung 1st tower ni drew. wawa sila creep pa nakabasag ng tower. rexxar lololz! :P

yung Finals yung sobrang pinagisipan namin kasi team Area51 yung kalaban namin comprised of Dim, Rey, and Arct tapos AP game sya tapos halinhinan sa pagpili ng heroes so expected namin na lich ang unang kukunin kasi lakas deny. fortunately for us, eventhough di kami nanalo sa toss nakuha parin namin yun lich kasi pinili nilang ideny kay celsus yung krob. but denying celsus krobelus was their greatest mistake kasi ang pinili ni cel ay si nevermore. while drew happily picks doom bringer, the other team picked sniper and venomancer to complete the lineup

Scourge: Me/Lich , Celsus/Nevermore , Drew/Doom

Sentinel: Dim/Venomancer , Arct/Sniper , Rey/Krobelus

so our plan was to harrass sniper para di lumaki. fortunately katapat ko sya. ayun harassed sya. basta ang galing. masasabi ko lang, kung wala kaming manok malamang talo kami. di kami naubusan ng wards so di naambush si drew tapos di na kami halos umuuwi gawa ng manok. pero yun yung pinakamagandang laro nung gabing yun. :D

all in all that was a great way to end the DotA sem, and although wala si Gelosas alam kong masaya parin sya para sa amin. para sayo yung panalo namin Gelo! Mabuhay!! Rexxar Lololz!! ingat ka jan tol!

I grew tired of the Pirate Cat.. this one's more soothing to the eye. and it suits my life right now.. chaotic yet peaceful.. and I like this one very much because my princess chose this skin for me and it reminded me that i was once her frog prince, not that i won't be her frog prince anymore but right now I'm just an ordinary frog to her. but this frog will strive hard to put away the curse that was casted upon him. only the princess can save him now!

Naks! ang drama! :D hope you like my new layout.

3on3 DotA tournament result OMFWTFBBQ!!

2006-01-22T19:05:00.000+08:00

Wow! I never thought we would have that much fun in that tournament. On top of that, i never thought being at 3rd place would be that cool.

Now we present you, ang Kupunan ni Eugene!!!
Si Louis bilang si Dr. Ichigaki!!
Sentinel : Shandelzare Silkwood the Vengeful Spirit
Scourge : Krobelus the Death Prophet

Si Gelo (Team Leader) bilang si Gwapong Suzuki!!
Sentinel : Ezalor the Keeper of the Light
Scourge : Terrorblade the Soul Keeper
b

At si Andrew bilang si Mr. Valdez!!
Sentinel : Sven the Rogueknight
Scourge : Lesalle Deathbringer the Venomancer

When I discovered na yung una naming kalaban e mga taga-Area51 kinabahan talaga ako. ayoko kasi madisappoint si Gelo sa amin kasi gusto namin at least di naman kami matalo sa first game namin. sayang nga naman yung 2 weeks namin na pinractice kung sa unang laban palang e OWNED na kagad kami diba. but with a few trust with my teammates and a bit of teamwork we managed to push our enemies inside their base and manage to have our first win. the second bout was like a replay of the first one except that we were on the Sentinel team. things went quite well for us except that we were not fit enough to stay focused at play from 7pm to 5am. natalo kami nung team nina JM nung nagkaroon sila ngchance na labanan ulit kami after they lost to us. oh well that's life, pero that wasn't bad either because we were tied with Team Vampirism comprising of the big three sa LB si Marksman, si Celsus, at si Ewan who are considered the most difficult team to defeat sa DotA. it was a good consolation na may bragging rights kami na kapantay namin sina Celsus. it's so cool! anyway, di na kami magssourgrape na dapat twice to beat kami nina JM. masaya na ako na nakasali kami sa tournament and we proved that we can be competetive with other player here in Lb along with my teammates Gelo and Andrew. Back na ko

6. Sugarfree - Tikman - Burger Machine tayo!! ganda ng kanta!!!

7. Kitchie Nadal - Ligaya - Para syang McDonald's commercial.. medyo binago nya kasi yung boses nya e... sana di na nya nilagyan ng effects yung boses nya.. pero ok sya!

8. Isha - Torpedo - I don't know her... but ok naman

9. FrancisM - Superproxy 2k6 - Tangina! Si Francis M. yan e! astig!! mas ok sya dun sa original! hehehe... ayus to! ayus!

15. Brownman Revival - Maling Akala - This one’s a great cover but it’s been over the airwaves too much I’m starting to get sick of it.

16. Rico J. Puno - Ang Huling El Bimbo - Rico J. Puno + E-heads = Ownage!! bagay yung kanta sa kanya.. hehe pangmatanda.. ganda parin ng boses nya kahit matanda na sya :P

You Dont Love Me Anymore..

2005-12-03T12:09:00.000+08:00

We've been together for so very long
But now things are changing, oh I wonder what's wrong?
Seems you don't want me around
The passion is gone and the flame's died down

I guess I lost a little bit of self-esteem
That time that you made it with the whole hockey team
You used to think I was nice
Now you tell all your friends that I'm the Antichrist

Oh, why did you disconnect the breaks on my car?
That kind of thing is hard to ignore
Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

I knew that we were having problems when
You put those piranhas in my bathtub again
You're still the light of my life
Oh darling, I'm beggin', won't you put down that knife?

You know, I even think it's kinda cute the way
You poison my coffee just a little each day
I still remember the way that you laughed
When you pushed me down the elevator shaft

Oh, if you don't mind me asking, what's this poisonous cobra
Doing in my underwear drawer?
Sometime I get to thinking you don't love me any more

You slammed my face down on the barbecue grill
Now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will
You set my house on fire
You pulled out my chest hairs with an old pair of pliers

Oh, you think I'm ugly and you say I'm cheap
You shaved off my eyebrows while I was asleep
You drilled a hole in my head
Then you dumped me in a drainage ditch and left me for dead

Oh, you know this really isn't like you at all
You never acted this way before
Honey, something tells me you don't love me any more, oh no no
Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

tulog na mahal ko
hayaan na muna natin ang mundong ito
lika na, tulog na tayo.
tulog na mahal ko
wag kang lumuha, malambot ang iyong kama
saka na mamroblema

tulog na hayaan na muna natin sila
mamaya, hindi ka na nila kaya pang saktan
kung matulog, matulog ka na…

tulog na mahal ko
nandito lang akong bahala sa iyo
sige na, tulog na muna
tulog na mahal ko
at baka bukas ngingiti ka sa wakas
at sabay natin haharapin ang mundo

tulog na hayaan na muna natin sila
mamaya, hindi ka na nila kaya pang saktan
kung matulog, matulog ka na…

hanggang makatulog ka

--------------------

i wish i could tell those words to her again... tulog na mahal ko... sigh.. I've always wanted to tell her that again and again... again and again.. till she falls asleep.. well, she's a fast sleeper.. I really miss brushing her hair while she sleeps.. I really miss watching her sleep.. I really miss every single day with her... it feels like there's a very big cavity in my chest.. sigh.. i really miss her... i really miss Cherrie...

As If the World Were Fog

2005-11-02T14:06:00.000+08:00

You know, being trapped inside your house is really a great oppurtinity for some realization, that most of the time we neglect due to the distractions we experience when we are outside. being sooo trapped for like 5 days helped me make some discoveries about myself..and reflect on my past and recent mistakes.. during those 5 long days i realized that i really was a very weak person, not being able to hold myself when faced with a very diffcult problem.. i have realized that no matter how strong we are or how determined we are, there will always come a time when our strength will be put to test. with that realization i can only say that we, the faithful servants of Emotion, can only hope and pray that when that time comes we are prepared. but we are facing life as if the world were fog.. so there's is nothing we can do but prepare.. prepare for the worst.

Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid Review

2005-10-30T20:26:00.000+08:00

When Full Metal Panic! finished its run in 2002, it left several questions unanswered. Like, what happens to Chidori now? or what happens to Sousuke and Chidori afterwards? or why is Gau always laughing? It's sequel, Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu was really not that connected with the ending of FMP!. It was merely an inspired stab at comedy based around some unused chapters of the manga adaptation. So in the end, the main story did not progress as the viewers expected.

Enter Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid

Based on the manga Full Metal Panic Sigma (which in turn was based on the novel The End of Day by Day),The Second Raid, as the fans hoped for, is the direct sequel of the origininal series. A lot of improvements can be seen in this sequel. The series focuses more on Kaname Chidori's Love Life, Sagara Sousuke's "becoming a real man", and the real secret behind the "Whispered". The series also reveals more about Amalgam and introduces two new villans: the twin sisters (originally brothers in the novel) Xia Yu Fan and Xia Yu Lan, and a very intrguing character which I know that bish lovers will love; Tessa Testarossa's brother. The action sequences remain smart and strategic, even when Sousuke is just blowing up things in his Arbalest and being very paranoid about "Wraith" who is supposed to be a Mithril member assigned to watch over Kaname. Of course Chidori still whacks Sousuke with her paper fan, but now it's funnier because it isn't happening every minute.

The action sequences stand out as being done particularly well, but it is solid top to bottom. There's nothing groundbreaking, but it doesn't suffer from the inconsistent character designs and lazy CG animation that a lot of current anime do. Overall, there is little to fault in The Second Raid. The only complaint would be that Chidori fans will be disappointed in her role in the first few episodes of the show, though her importance to the story will certainly grow as more about "Whispered" is revealed. There are even a few surprises thrown into the mix, which keeps the story fresh as it progresses. Fans of the original Full Metal Panic! have no excuse to not check this series out, as it promises to be a worthy successor.

All in all, I give it a very deserving score of 10/10

We are rarely proud when we are alone

2005-10-30T17:00:00.000+08:00

a beautiful quote by Mr. Voltaire in his book entitled Philosophical Dictionary...

I am all alone in this four cornered room with no one to talk to but the silent monitor.. the rainy weather outside just adds to the loneliness.. you can hear the voices of people outside, chatting, having fun, enjoying.. while I am all alone, brooding inside this loneliness festered room.. I wouldn't mind if someone would suddenly warp here.. I wouldn't mind at all..

The earth is a beehive, we all enter by the same door but live in different cells

I wouldn't mind at all...

Boredom 101

2005-10-29T19:27:00.000+08:00

argh!! I'm so bored.. well not that this would do any good to my boredom.. i just wanna tell everyone that I am bored.. hehe magulo.. bored, bothered, happy, depressed, worried, impressed.. ano pa..basta lahat nagsamasama... hay ... hehehe oh well tingin ko walang mangyayari kung mananatili lang akong bored.. hehehe have to do something... aha! :D see you in 2 weeks!

Thus Signals the end of the Sem

2005-10-24T12:41:00.000+08:00

YEH! it really was the best semender ever!, and like our sexy leader Andrew, I dont know where to start..

let us begin at around 5AM in the morning... most of us are still asleep at that time so let us skip

at around 10AM I arrived at Whitehouse apartments where we are supposed to cook and prepare for the semender. when i entered i saw celsus topcoding and angel along with cherrie sleeping on the couch... we are supposed to start working at 8AM. it was already 10AM and Andrew is still sleeping.. lolz! anyway, when he arrived we cooked rice and waited for the others to come and join us. we hired a jeepney, and went to the resort at around 1PM. :D this is what the resort looked like

Teh Semender Pics

When we entered the resort we were like "Oh my God! It's so cool!" the place is nothing compared to our previous semenders.

Sobrang masaya lahat ng tao except maybe dun sa mga tao na nagdecide na ipagpalit kami dun sa Komikon which i heard was sooo boring. buti nga sa inyo! :P sobrang nageenjoy lahat! ang gulo! ang saya! syempre di mawawala yung mga hirit at mga pangaasar. hehehe... wala ako masabi. :D nakangiti ako habang sinusulat ko ito. naaalala ko yung semender. sana maulit to. basta! words can describe the happiness and enjoyment that we felt.. it may be because the resort is spacious, or the ambiance is great, or the cool rooms, or the nice pool.. but i think above all that we are happy because we are spending this one special day with the people we love, with the group that everyone treasured and the thought that whatever happens, Skewed Studios will always be the Best Group Ever! I love you Guys!

and as quoted in Andrew's Blog, here are some of the most memorable semender quotes

Days

2005-10-12T18:05:00.000+08:00

My day started early. I woke up at 7 in the morning too lazy to wake up, too lazy to start the things i should be doing like studying for an exam at 10am. Lazily I got up and ate my breakfast which tasted like sand (maybe my tongue is still asleep). woke my brains with a teaspoon of coffee, a pinch of sugar, some hot water, and a bit of news. after having my daily dose of caffeine i started to pick my notes and try to sort out the topic that i have to focus cause i havent got enough time to study them all. undecided on what to pick i threw my notes in my bed and randomly picked a handout. feeling so stupid and irresponsible while reading that damn handout i stared to think back on the days when i was very very enthusiatic to study. i was the most diligent in our class when i was in elementary. i would even skip class on a holiday! but now I'm making my own holiday. after some time i snapped out of my daydreaming and continued to study. i realized that the handout that i picked was quite long and knowing my instructor (which happens to be my batchmate) she would only pick one topic which is quite long and have lots of questions in it and give it as the final exam.. i tried to absorb every little detail of that topic while half praying to The Dude up there that my instructor will give this topic as our exam otherwise I will sure to fail and be depressed for the rest of the sembreak. after like 2 and a half hours of studying i checked the time... 8:30 am... i have studied every little detail of that topic in just 30 minutes! not knowing what to do next, i tried to review it and re-review it hoping it would waste the time until 9:15 which is my proposed time to start fixing my self. after rereviewing i check the time again and i was amazed when i saw the time.. 8:40 am.. not knowing what to do next (again!) i turned on the television and watched an early morning cartoon ( i think it's Hamtaro) the story was quite interesting because the main character was ranting about him always doing the thinking while his companions just stand and wait for him to come up with a great idea. while he was ranting about that he came up with an idea on how they would cross the creek. anyway, that cartoon took up most of my time. after watching i started fixing my self. while i was taking a bath, i realized that i havent bought a graphing paper which we might be needing in our final exam... i hurriedly finished taking a bath and stuff because it was already 9:55 am.. 5 minutes to buy graphing paper, review and go there. as if i would do it in 5 mins! of course I came in 15 minutes late because of the damn graphing paper only to find out that we wont be needing any paper... just our pen, calculator, and ruler. gardemmet!! anyway, my frustration quickly faded when i saw the Final Exam.. I smiled and started to finish it. After 2 hours we exchanged test papers and checked it. after checking our instructor told us not to tell anyone their grade and wait patiently for 15 mins. that was my longest 15 minutes this semester. after 15 mins we got our paper and frowned when i got my paper.. i got 001.. i started walking out of the room feeling so numb and stupid. i smiled the whole examination only to get a score of 001... i took a jeepney ride towards whitehouse and checked my exam again to find where i made a mistake... and for the second time today i smiled. i didnt get a 001, it was a flat 1.00 all this time :D

I'm so tired!!! I've been here and there the whole day. I haven't eaten anything and still there's a lot of things to be done... it feels like the fate of the tournament rests upon my shoulders. i love my teammates and our org but sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who is working. they always pass their job on me not thinking that i may be doing something more important... damn even Cherrie's getting pissed off... but anyway, it's too late for this. i should have rejected it when I had the chance.. just ranting..

So Special

2005-09-26T10:22:00.000+08:00

There is this one special day
That sent my mind in disarray
The girl i thought
That was already lost
Came to me when i need love most
All the sadness and the pain subside
Replaced by love and happiness inside
Oh, you can't really tell
When things will turn the way
You want 'em to be

Oh, i'll never be lonely again
Just as long as you stand by me now
And everyday
I'll spend my time
Finding out why yer so special

I still can recall the past
When we thought our love would last
Then a day came to my dismay
Misunderstanding got in our way
It took me a year to think it over
If there was hope for me to recover
Oh, i struggled so hard and really tried
To keep our love alive

Oh, i'll never be lonely again
Just as long as you stand by me now
And everyday
I'll spend my time
Finding out why yer so special

Yer so special
Yer so special
Yer so special
Oh, yer so special..

-------------
Why can't you see that you're so special to me? Don't mind other people, just remember that whatever happens, whoever comes in our way, you will always be my special someone. and that will never change

Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children

2005-09-18T11:08:00.000+08:00

Woohoo! That was the best sequel I've seen from Square. based on their previous sequels this movies has the most content in terms of plot development. they surely answered all my questions when i first played the game. when i finished the game, i was kinda disappointed because there are many unfinished plots leaving them floating in limbo. but this film tied all the knots and once and for all concluded the story that they left hanging 8 years ago. this is a highly recommended film espescially for those who have played the game. for those who haven't played the game, it's never too late. :D basta! cool! though medyo exaggerated yung design nung mga clone. nagmukha tuloy silang mga bading. hehe pero astig yung mga fight scenes. sobrang palupit ng palupit yung mga fight scenes habang tumatagal. hehehe basta watch it. it would surely make your day. :D

Personality Defect Test Results

2005-09-13T15:01:00.000+08:00

Hippie
You are 28% Rational, 71% Extroverted, 28% Brutal, and 0% Arrogant.

You are the Hippie! Characterized by a strong sense of extroversion,
irrationality, gentleness, and humility, you no doubt frolic through
fields preaching peace and love to all! You are probably either very
spiritual or needlessly paranoid about "the man", like most hippies, as
a result of your focus on intuition and feelings over cold, brutal
logic. You are also very, very social. And like any hippie, who would
have no qualms about hitchiking across the country just to meet some
interesting people, you too love to interact with others, even complete
strangers. Because we know most any hippie is peace-loving and humble,
it stands to reason that you, as well, are terribly gentle and humble,
almost to the point of revulsion. Your carefree attitude of peace and
harmony is probably very, very sickening to realists or cynics or
anyone who isn't a hippie, to tell the truth. In short, your
personality is defective because you are overly emotional, extroverted,
gentle, and humble--thus making you an annoying hippie. And you listen
to psychadelic rock and smoke a whole lot of pot. Okay, maybe not, but
I wouldn't be surprised if you did.

To put it less negatively:

1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.

2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

4. You are more HUMBLE than arrogant.

Compatibility:

Your exact opposite is the Sociopath.

Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Hand-Raiser, the Televangelist, and the Robot.

If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you
could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42%
Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is
close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well.
Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can
determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored
near fifty percent for certain traits.

The other personality types:

The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 11% on Rationality
You scored higher than 73% on Extroversion
You scored higher than 27% on Brutality
You scored higher than 0% on Arrogance

A song for Cherrie

2005-09-09T16:39:00.000+08:00

Jus LIke a Splendid Love Song by Orange and Lemons

Spending my days with you
Is like living in a world of fancy
With all the beautiful people i know
Makin' love in a world
Of vivid colors
How often have i been there
Well it doesn't really matter
As long as we're together..

You and me together we will journey
To seek and see the colors
Of our fantasies
Come to life with the stroke of your soothing hands
All the questions of life
I will come to understand

Seasons come
And seasons go
Star will shine
And lose their glow..
But every time i try to look back
I know..

That spending my days with you
Is like living in a world of fancy
With all the beautiful people i know
Makin' love in a world
Of vivid colors
How often have i been there
Well it doesn't really matter
As long as we're together..

You and me in love with each other
There will be no problems that will bother
Just the two of us painting a world of our own
Everything is perfect
Just like a splendid love song

Seasons come
And seasons go
Star will shine
And lose their glow..
But every time i try to look back
I know..

That spending my days with you
Is like living in a world of fancy
With all the beautiful people i know
Makin' love in a world
Of vivid colors
How often have i been there
Well it doesn't really matter

Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection

2005-09-04T15:17:00.000+08:00

Last month, Namco released yet another expansion to the Tekken series. 2 months ago they released and expansion of Tekken 5 and named it Tekken 5.1. It includes bug fixes and some character tweaks. i think Namco is doing everything to make Tekken 5 perfect because for me Tekken 5 is one of the most balanced in its series. with the arrival of Tekken 5:DR we can expect more stages and 2 new characters along with tons of new costumes and color palettes. i hope they fix some of the imbalanaces in tekken5.1.

Lili, as shown in the teaser movie is a pop star turned fighter. we still dont know why she joined the King of the Iron Fist tournament but i think she has something to do with Gaymaster Dragunov. Based on what i saw, her style is like a combination of Hakke Ken, Hike Ken which is Xiaoyu's style of fighting and Combat Aikido and Bone Martial Arts which is Anna and Nina's fighting style respectively. Plus she looks like Anastasia. hehe. i kinda like her style because of her incredible speed + power moves. i will not be surprized if she will be one of the top tier characters

Gaymaster Dragunov looks like Ryo in the film Fighter in the Wind minus the bish hair. looks like a gay, acts like a gay. i think he hates Lili. i dunno. anyway his fighting style is like Brian's and Bruce's plus Crouchdash. how gay can he get. but still i think he will be the next Brian in terms of wall abuse. damn.. i hate him. hehe

well that was my unbiased review of the newest upgrade of tekken5. we hope that it will be released in console in the near future.

Wala namang ma-order!!

Pabango ng 'yong mata by Orange and Lemons

'Wag ka na manangis, irog
Sayang lamang ang luha mo
May paggagamitan ka nyan
Ako'y malapit nang mamatay
At saka mo na diligin
Ang libingan ko
Ng pabango ng 'yong mga mata

Luha, kusa na lang dumadaloy
Sa mga pagkakataon
Nagpapaalalang tayo'y tao lamang

Pagsisisi, lagi na lang sa huli
Sa mga pagkakataong
Nakalimot 'pagkat tayo'y tao lamang

'Wag ka na manangis, irog
Sayang lamang ang luha mo
May paggagamitan ka nyan
Ako'y malapit nang mamatay
At saka mo na diligin
Ang libingan ko
Ng pabango ng 'yong mga mata

Pilitin mang tumindig
Upang ika'y mahagkan man lang ng mahigpit
Kusang napapahandusay sa aking
Malupit na papag
Nabibilang ko ang sikat ng araw
Parang ka'y bilis na ng ikot ng mundo
Marahil ito na ang huling awit at hapdi
Na iparadama ko sa 'yo

'Wag ka na manangis, irog
Sayang lamang ang luha mo
May paggagamitan ka nyan
Ako'y malapit nang mamatay
At saka mo na diligin
Ang libingan ko
Ng pabango ng 'yong mga mata
At saka mo na diligin
Ang libingan ko
Ng pabango ng 'yong mga mata..

Living on the edge

2005-08-14T14:57:00.000+08:00

Sigh... feel so depressed.. so many things happened in such a short time. my body and soul can't keep up with it. i feel so tired of everything... i know i've done something many of you will consider very bad. but i'm just testing her trust in me. it seems that she doesn't trust me anymore. i dont know what happened to her to be like that suspiscious. i know that i haven't crossed any line. ive tried my best to explain everything to her but she keeps on closing herself to me. argh!! damn!

Exam Galore and the Chocolate Factory

2005-08-12T22:08:00.000+08:00

gedemet! so many exams so little time, so little patience, so little notes... T_T

la lang. my friends here at whitehouse are watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. but i've already watched the movie so i decided to make a review about it.

well, the story starts with the success of Willie Wonka, the famous owner of the famous chocolate Willie Wonka... well the story revolves around a poor boy named Charlie who won a ticket which entitles him to a tour around the factory. actually the whole story was just a background to the true meaning of the film. sure it looks like a typical children's movie but if you listen closely to the dialogues espescially the songs of the umpha wopma whatever, you will notice that it targets certain issues concerning our daily lives. i highly recommend this film. so cool... :D

A Bad Day for RD

2005-08-05T09:36:00.000+08:00

Today I think is a bad day. I have so many things to do with so little time and I am here doing nothing because it's friggin raining outside. I'm also disappointed with my peers in our art club because i don't know what's the purpose of the group anymore. the only ones who are working are the old ones like andrew's batch. i am very disappointed at the new ones because ever since they joined the group they haven't contributed anything for the group except their jokes and their senseless antics. minsan napapaisip ako na baka mas productive pa yung Siomai Sashimi Don Club ( pero napaisip ulit ako.. hinde, mas productive parin kami. they suxx) wala na din yung magagaling na artist tapos yung magagalign nating scriptwriters wala na din. yung magaling magtake-over puro ideas lang at mga pangpersonal na agenda. yung iba naman walang pakialam kung anong project, nakikihitch lang sila sa kung anong sabihin ni andrew pero wala namang ginagawa. Kung ikaw si Neil, diba mababadtrip ka din. Or si Ais, o si Andrew, o si (enter Elder's name) hindi ba tatamarin ka rin kung ganyang katamad ang mga kasama mo? parang ikaw lang ang gumagawa ng lahat e. ok lang naman siguro yung magkatuwaan kahit minsan, ang problema e almots 98% walang ginagawa kundi mag-gaguhan. pag nagmmeeting si andrew nakikita ko na wala halos nakikinig, parang binabalewala nyo yung mga efforts nya para lang may magawa tayo. di katulad ng dati na pag meeting meeting talaga. lahat nakikinig at tumutulong para may magawa tayo. naiinis ako kasi sigurado ako na kapag gmraduate na si drew and yung mga kabatch nya e wala ng mangyayari sa group. wala ng magttakeover para sa mga projects ( except na lang kung biglan na namang sumingit si ano at itakeover na naman nya yung group) hay naku, this could go on forever and still nothing good will happen. gusto ko lang ilabas ang opinion ko about the group. sa lahat ng makakabasa nito sana isipin nyo naman ang paghihirap ni drew ( our current slave-driver) para sa group natin...

Burnout by Sugarfree

2005-08-03T19:32:00.000+08:00

Basically this post would be best described by that song. i just want to tell my self that i have been wrong. very wrong, and i admit that.. i have been a very bad person... but i'm happy that ive fixed the problem... now I'm back to my usual simple happy life.. :D

If Only...

2005-08-02T14:43:00.000+08:00

I ve watched this very tragic movie entitled If Only hoping that it could make me feel better considering my situation right now. unfortunately instead of making me feel better i felt even worse after watching it. i dont know why im so vulnerable to those kind of movies. i feel like shit right now. i think i'm paranoid. If only i could turn back the hands of time, i really would, and i will continue to turn it back every now and then and return to the time where i dont have to worry about anything at all...

Chicken Soup for my Soul

2005-08-01T20:29:00.000+08:00

I feel so down today.. i dont know why. cherrie is starting to worry because im not the usual louis. i dont know what's happening to me. one of the sign was that i was the first to finish our HARD seatwork with my solutions exactly the same as my instructor's, my kicks were a bit stronger today (i can move the biggest holder in that class with my kick), i dont mind my injury at my ankle whenever i accidentally hit it, and lastly i dont feel like talking to anyone right now. argh! i want to be alone... maybe i am nervous because our finals is just six days away.. but i dont think that's the problem.. GOd! maybe i need a chicken soup for my soul. a hot chicken soup... geddemet...

It hurts!

2005-08-01T04:23:00.001+08:00

hehe.. we sparred yesterday with each other in our taekwondo training. it was fun, but my foot hurts because i accidentally kicked my opponent's elbow. after that he kicked my thigh which caused a bukol. heheh... after our fight i was paired with a student from LCBA which is like 3 times as big as me in body mass. his stance was so open that i could throw my turning side kick with no problem. the problem is his body mass, he is so big that i use both of my arms to block his 45 kick. every time he hits me i feel my whole body shaking. but it was cool because at least i know now how it feels like to fight a bigger opponent. my last opponent was my irresponsible batchmate. he's so irresponsible that he doesnt even know how to kick. i'm kinda irritated with him because he left me alone in our assignment to collect 1 sack of "retaso" anyway, im glad that finally my batchmates are starting to realize the concept of "One Mind" i hope this will continue even after our finals which will be held 7 days from now. well, goodluck to all of us and i hope that we could finish it as a batch. :D

Spin Kick!

2005-07-28T02:20:00.000+08:00

at long last! i have finally downloaded and watched the movie Spin Kick. all i can say is that it rekindled my burning passion for taekwondo. hheheh i wont review the movie because i want them to watch the movie. i really recommend this movie especially to taekwondo fanatics like me. :D watch it! it's really cool! hehehe

Embers Falling on Dry Grass

2005-07-25T02:09:00.000+08:00

yeh! yesterday, the prologue to the eleventh installment of the Wheel of Time series was released. unfortunately I'm in the Philippines therefore I wasn't able to buy the prologue. and so i surfed the net hoping that someone will be kind enough to share the contents of the said book. :D i found some excerpts from http://knifeofdreams.com but still it's not enough. i must read the whole prologue. I MUST!!! so now I'm explring Emule for the prologue.

about what i read from the excerpt, Galad confronted Eamon Valda for killing her mother, Morgaxse Trakand. They end up performing a Trial Beneath the Light. Basically it's a duel to death. obviously Galad won. because of this Asunawa left and contacted the generals of the children. Galad on the other hand decided that they must help whoever fights the Seanchan, even if it is Rand and the Aes Sedai. because of this the Children was divided, those who wants Galad as the Lord Captain Commander and those who follow Asunawa. whatever! i dont really care about the Children anyway. but i heard that Semirhage willl do something cool in Seanchan. heheheh

My friend Andrew had a bad day today. lets just say he kinda messed his blog. he unknowingly deleted half of his template leaving his blog in a complete mess. now his blog looks like trash compared to his previous one. i hope that he could recover the older blog. i liked that one so much. well goodluck drew!

it's been so long since ive posted an entry. well im kinda busy. im currently applying for the Brotherhood and Sorority for the Advancement of Taekwondo. im happy with what i'm doing right now. it's just that i feel guilty whenever i tell cherrie that i can't meet her because im going to train or whenever i have a meeting with my batchmates. :D but im also happy because she is so understanding. i hope she still has some patience in her because we still have 3 weeks before our finals. i swear that after all this im going to treat her to a nice place and have a nice talk and do whatever she ask me to (sana di kami manood ng kyou kara mao T_T) cherrie, please bear with me until this is over Ok? i love you very much!

to my batchmates:
alam kong wala sa inyo ang nakakaalam ng blog ko pero if ever man na mapadpad kayo d2 i just want you to know that whatever happens di ko kayo iiwan. wish ko lang sa magiging batch leader natin, sana maging responsable sya at sana ay wag nya pababayaan ang mga batchmates nya. lagi sana nya isipin muna ang mga batchmates nya bago ang sarili nya. mahal ko kayong lahat.

to skewed studios:

Skewed Studios roXXorz!!

to cherrie:

The Five Tenets of Taekwondo

Self-confidence gives you the freedom to make mistakes and cope with failure without feeling that your world has come to an end or that you are a worthless person.

Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other.

Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

Modesty is the lowest of the virtues, and is a confession of the deficiency it indicates. He who undervalues himself is justly overvalued by others.

Etiquette means behaving yourself a little better than is absolutely essential
