let the geek in the pink take a stab at it

this is a long post.

hello blog. you see, i don't see the point why i went on blog leave. it's silly you know, i've been keeping another journal, a password protected microsoft word document with a filename: atomic research logs, and i've been putting all the crap in my life there, at least for the past 2 months.

nothing extraordinary happened today, i'm just eating my favorite salted greasy peanuts from FCM which costs 10 per 35 grams. i wouldn't be surprised if my jaw hurts again tomorrow. i'm munching them like hell.

kumusta na nga ba ako?
still the same, i don't have an official alma matter yet and i'm struggling between being a chemical engineer or a business mgt. major. what the hell am i supposed to take? my golly, i've explained this depressing struggle a lot of times already and still no answer.

anyhow, i have a lot of tricks in my sleeve, i just don't know how to pull them off. this thursday i'll be going to UPLB for another interview. i've written down every possible question the dean will ask and i have made my own research about chemical engineering as well. i just have to impress him... i have a ranking to retain, i'm desperate for school.

hay dyusko.
just so you know, i missed watching My Girl today because i'm typing this ****.

my fallback is still the same though, FEU. si Henry Sy na lang tutularan ko.
oooh, speaking of Henry Sy... ate theresa got a free complimentary cinema ticket from one of my mom's clients in SM mall of asia. admit two, any sm cinema, any movie, premiere, IMAX! yahoooooo! can't wait.

love this song: a place in time - amanda abizaid. theme song of the 4400 (scifi series. thurs.7pm rpn prime shift)

'amelie' will be showing on aug.7 -730pm-rpn prime shift.

tsk. namememorize ko na ung mga commercial sa tv. grabe, wake up song ko... "good morning, good morning, dahil sa pampers, ang sleep mo ang sleep mo, mahimbing! iwas leaks iwas leaks up to 10 hours! masarap, masarap ang gising! ganadong ganado na matulog, bulaga! flying kiss! yeeeeeyyy!..."

weirdo.

i've realized, maybe i like harry potter more than draco malfoy. and i think i have to get over my obsession with ryan philippe and accept that he's having two kids soon. plus, i have to let go of another ryan too, he's getting married to judy ann santos. =(

everytime i read my batchmates blogs and seee their updates in multiply, i get jealous. jealous that they're having a good time in college and i don't. that i'm stuck with our stinky laundry and empty refrigerator. but then everything has a good side, i'm getting paid for doing the laundry, i'm getting thinner with bellydancing, and (seriously) i've been spending a day's time with God. somehow, even though i don't learn academically, i learn spiritually and that what i missed most when i was studying.

i read this story in 'what matters most - francis j. kong' -- a business self-help book.

-back in time (forgot the date) brothers adi and rudolph dassler created the very successful sportsgear we highly patronize today: Adidas. but there came a time when the two fought over something that caused them to go on separate ways. adi was left alone with adidas and his brother decided to venture into a new business. this led rudolph to create an equally competitive brand that aims to overtake his brother's, and it was called Puma!

-nike, on the other hand, was established in japan by an american track and field coach, bill bowerman. he developed a new set of rubbershoes which were meant for running because he noticed most of his team members get injured a lot with their shoes. phil knight, one of his students highly supported his coach's idea and even helped him market his propsal. during that time, running shoes were scarcely in demand and it wasn't until their world tour in japan that they were able to meet a shoe manufacturing company that invested in their creation. thus began the world-famous nike swoosh.

'what matters most- francis j. kong' is a good read, mainly because it contains a lot of success stories from businessmen which emerged from rags to riches. other stories include ray kroc's mc donald's, quaker's oats and the cornelius vanderbilt fortune. :D

sige, goooooooooooooood night.

who moved my cheese?

it's a book by.. i forgot. i just read it last night and it was super nice. you'll learn a lot of things about change. yeah... it says there that you refer to "cheese" as your goal. sometimes when we've reached our goals we set out a wall around it and build our own comfort zones. just like having a new job. you love your job and you're doing well but your manager decided to put you in a different department, something you know is less demanding than your previous work. you get insulted. you know to yourself that you have more to show and it's not in that field. however, you do not realize that your manager just ' moved your cheese', he knows you'll do good in both fields so why bother seeing you doing the same job. he's just opening another door for you.

but then, we'll never know who really 'moves our cheese' it could be our parents, our friends, our seniors, even our enemies but ultimately it's still God.

he loves moving our cheese and watching us sniff and scurry throughout the labyrinth of life to find it. :D

yeah , i got a pretty good hang from that book. it made me think a lot. initialy i've set my 'cheese' in the college of business. but right now i don't know if it's still there or if someone moved it to another college. meeeehhnn.

bum.
i sort of hate words that are overly repeated. words that are overused... like bum. unfortunately there isn't any word good enough to describe me for this summer except for that.
i was bloghopping minutes ago before i decided to blog for awhile things that are not really worth venting.
i found out a pretty good site where i can bloghop. the shsian ako! weblisting... ooh i linked it down there.
i spent a good deal of time reading YOUR blogs. hah! you should be flattered i am one of the few who are able to keep up with your summer chitchats. anyway i am not a faithful reader so don't expect me to come back to your site whenever you feel no one's reading your entries.

it's a good thing i stumbled upon that weblisting though. kept me busy assessing my fellow shsian's personalities through their blogs. do it to me too, whatever suits you but i already mentioned zillion times before that i'm evil and that i can easily track you down and fire a bullet through your thick skull.

you know the feeling of liking something and leaving it afterwards when you've discovered a LOT of people like it too?

yeah.
that's why i keep a lot of things just for myself because i'm afraid that if someone else likes it, it'll spread quick and i won't be the 'ultimate fan' anymore. hah! as if people would actually like my taste?

gotta eat. i'm hungry

carribean blue

they say the sky high above
is carribean blueeeeeee...

i'm loving enya. i'm actually wondering if it's a brain booster or something because everytime i listen to it while reading or studying, i think i can just sit there for the whole day and read.

i definitely need that for college. my palm pilot is still broke so right now i'm using my phone as an mp3 player, not bad... but too slow. i love the motorolla mobile earphones it feels like the sound is everywhere when i stuck them in my ears.

i'm still waiting and wishing for a hundred dollars with my joke... let's wish harder.
i'm in desperate need of money right now. i'm not a shopping freak, i just like having money to pull out of my wallet when i need it.

meeehhn, june 5 is sooo near. i can't wait any longer, i haven't conducted a ritual yet to the names of the qualified waitlisters. meeehhhnnn, where arth thou dear college life?

the big fuss about the da vinci code

the bench
...
...
...
...
...
chi code!

i haven't read the book and i haven't watched the movie. a lot of people are affected by it, i don't know why. i guess some are just too stupid to fall for a fiction novel. maybe that's why, the publisher's layout artist didn't make that big and bold enough for people to see and understand. i have read the first chapter in the net and i was bored. it was his way of writing that bored me. but nonetheless it has a good plot. by good, i don't mean good enough to replace the christian doctrine but good enough to test us. yeah, it's a test can't you see? and i think God is disappointed in us that something as unreal as a fiction novel can drag our faith down. as a writer, dan brown has the right to play with everything under the sun. he even dug historical remains to provide basis for his ideas. the book may be offensive but to the critics, an offensive book is a controversial book. that's why it's a bestseller.

i'm in a very good mood today. i just watched superman in qtv and i was once again brought into krypton fandom. lex luthor is such a handsome name, don't you think?

how do you put a heart symbol????

heyhey! i'm not drinking nido full-cream anymore! hehe... i promised myself i'll take care of my bones from now on by taking the right amount of calcium a day. and the only milk clinically proven to be effective in doing so is Anlene. that's according to the box. the doctor also advised me that i should watch my weight because my knee has gone a deal weaker and if i get heavier my knee could not bear myweight any longer.

that's great! at least i have a BIG reason not to get fat. and besides, mom says i'm going to have braces soon, which means i would be restricting myself on eating hard to chew foods and foods that stick between your teeth. best example is underboiled beef. why would i eat that anyway?

yeah! gokusen again tomorrow! weeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

drink moderately

wOOt! i need coffee!!!! it's been weeks since i last had a decent cup and it's driving me nuts already. raaawwrrr!

yesterday was fun! i went to jami's house to swim! yeah, filthy rich! they have their own pool... with jacuzzi! we're all five... jami, nez, ding, lau and i. :D the others can't come, unfortunately... but it's great nonetheless. thanks for the pizza! and for your mom's recipe of your crispy chicken flakes! i'll definitely try that out sometime.. :D

after more than a year of inactivity, i have readied myself to open my antique account in neopets. and look at that! i have two grandmaster titles in the games: destruct-o-match and ice cream factory. can't be too proud since you know, after all the bucks i've earned with playing games i can't even buy my 'dying' pet the large smoothie she wants.

now is the time though, i don't want my pet to die!!!

wanna go to the mall. i'm sick and tired of hearing all these people talk about (pop!) saving money and all. meeeehn, my parents haven't given me my 'sallary' yet for doing their (our) stinky laundry. my hands smells like surf and my nails continue to rot.

i'm broke. i wanna go to school already, speaking of which.... i don't have a school yet. sooner or later or maybe by early june i'll have a school na. it's either iskolar ng bayan or a poopy tamaraw.

you see, i'm stuck . it must be a great thing to be in UP but if i stay there i'll be doing everything a nerd does, read a chemistry book like it's a new york times bestseller, mix chemicals X, Y and Z and then what? build an underground laboratory? i'm not called to do that. worse is, i'm not allowed to shift courses. :(
but if i go to FEU and be their little baby tamaraw, it might not be the best school i'll see around but at least i know i love my course. my name spells business and i simply like marketing ideas and earning. i have a lot of things planned ahead and it's bad enough that i couldn't get myself up the step-ladder. maybe it's because of my wierdo leg. mehn. whatever.

ooh, i think i really need to drink coffee now. and it doesn't get me cranky like others, it's actually calming me for a while then hyping me all of a sudden. cheers!

bad news II

aynaku... seriously i'm having a major college dilemma! magju-june na wala parin akong school. ang bobo ko talaga... apparently i didn't make it to the qualified waitlisters because i was rank 12 and they only got 10 so i still have to wait until june 5 to see if someone backs out on the course. i'm hoping for at least 3 people who wouldn't register.

chem eng is okay. i'll do my best to pull something BIG out of my sleeve to survive their taunting curriculum. actually my plan A is to pass the upcat, since i didn't, we move to plan B which is to get into the waitlist and pass. unfortunately, i didn't so there has to be a plan C. And that is to wait until june 5. if, still, plan C won't come true then one thing is for sure... the god of misfortune is my patron.

just wait, malay nyo makaabot ako ng plan Z!
sabi nga si Lord, it's either yes, no, or WAIT.

anyhow, i have a plan D and that is to study in FEU and become a tamaraw.
ano ba yan, feeling ko sobrang bobo kooooo.
