come on saturday!

i can't go to hannah's birthday. well, i was supposed to but our teacher scheduled our first exam on a saturday morning which means that i'm still stuck here on a friday, which is hannah's birthday. which gives me only one thing to look forward to this week... saturdaaaay!

yeah! as in i'm going to bring all my stuff in the exam and after that i'll go directly to the bus terminal then on to megamall! come on, i need a break. i have a really tiresome schedule. i've told you before that they resumed our schedule to the original one which starts at 7am. meaning, i can't anymore spend sunday nights at home! i have to be back here at sunday. sucks. biiiiig time. and wait, i have to bring a lot of things, including that fucking zumdahl book that weighs a lot. and i'm so ashamed to carry it in the mall. yaaak. parang, ok? i'm going mall strolling with a chemistry book. ang adeek talaga. haha but fck i have to make a full report on chemical equilibrium so i need the reference.

anyhow. i've realized i've grown to appreciate chemistry a lot! i owe this all to prof. dabalos. he does sound like a terror but he taught me to look at things on a chemical basis, which i am so grateful for. kat, july and i are talking like weirdos already, making poems and confessions using chemical principles like, 'i'm not like other elements who need 8 electrons to be stable. i am a hydrogen atom, i only need one to be complete.' haha ang corny talaga pero you see the application naman. lol and it's not just that we also have this, 'i see you as a force that excites me, an electron on ground state, to a higher energy level. but when you're gone and you leave me on that state, i become unstable, leaving me with nothing to do but to revert back to a lower level, or much worse... back to the ground state.' :( hahaha, eh ano baa? corny na kung corny pero madrama talaga ang buhay ng mga electrons.

hmmm.
Vista's pretty good naman pala. in fact i'm using it right now in spacehub. pretty much like XP din pala. well i just love the themes. they have a 'ferrari' theme! awesoooome!

weh?

hey it's been more than 2 weeks since i last drank coffee! would you believe it? lol. i can't either. i mean, i find it hard to drink in starbucks now that i know mike's not behind the cash register. lol. but anyway, i plan on indulging this weekend, let's just hope that my schedule complies ~.^

i'm the only customer here in astra. hahaha. i checked my stats again. i got new referrals from search engines, a couple searching for the backmasked message of pare ko by eraserheads (from yahoo) and a claudine and raymart on extra challenge from search.msn. i don't remember writing anything about the couple... hmm. anyhow, another search string that could refer my blog is "blessed bucks". yeah, i do remember sharing about it some time ago.

so really, it's a good thing to be in blogger because it's tied up with google. go traffic!

THEY CHANGED OUR SCHEDULE AGAIN.
it's back to normal, i have classes from 7am to 2pm STRAIGHT. uhh, well i have a 15 minute break from 845 to 9 but that doesn't let me eat breakfast anyway. haaay. it's ok. i'll get used to it. no breakfast mornings make me cranky but yeah, i'll get by with rebisco crackers. and look, we're almost halfway through the whole month! which means that i was able to inject 3 months worth of lecture in just 2 weeks. amazing! let's just hope it shows in my grades. my prelabs and postlab suck. grrr...

come on weekend! i'm counting on you!

astrah!

the previous entry was made in primelink where i paid a freakin 10 pesos for only 15 minutes. e bat ganon? biglang nagmahal? whatever. i don't like to surf there anymore. kulang sa features! they don't have y!m (which is like a necessity in every computer node), they don't have java and macromedia flash installed (meaning no youtube. fck), their media player is not installed as well. >.< the only programs lined up in their start menu are: 02jam, pangya, dotA, flyff, audition at kung ano ano pang games na pang adik. obvious naman diba? i'm the only girl there! i can't blog.

ok. tama nang paninira. the more important thing is, i'm here in a better place. haha. not really, but at least they have y!m, i can play neopets, listen to imeem and watch on youtube. hahaha.
anyhow, primelink gave me good enough internet cafe memories. i wouldn't be called trojan queen in the dorm if not for that blasted internet cafe. and wait, their computer node 1 (which i used last week) is using microsoft vista as its primary OS. i had a really good feel of microsoft's newest installment on their lineup of operating systems. the interface is really cool, modern and well... just amazing. but just like other people who complain about its lack of compatibility with most common softwares, i have a couple of complaints as well. not a lot since i only have1 hour to navigate through vista...

in vista:
they won't let me print because like usual, their printer driver isn't compatible with vista's yet.
no firefox, no y!m, no flash and java... well on these, it's not entirely vista's fault. the computer shop management haven't installed them yet. wtf. and of course windows default security still sucks. uuhm, oh yeah i had a hard time looking for the right microsoft office programs because their default icons has changed as well. it requires a little getting-used-to to navigate through vista swiftly but then, even though i would say the interface is one of the best i've seen and tried, it all comes down to how much it can handle foreign software and programs. it's not readily compatible with everything, unlike XP so for now, i guess we must still stick to XP until they have made the proper arrangements on this newly released OS.

on the bright side though, there are loads of new features added like a win dvd maker and a win aero (it's just the improved graphical interface actually ^^;;). oh well, if only they could use Win Aero with XP configuration then i'd most probably switch to vistah!

-_-;;

ano ba to. walang ym, walang flash, walang java meaning walang youtube, walang imeem.
ano tooo?

okay. bye primelink.

please take my idea! you'll need this tooooo

good news! our teacher said we're not going to have classes this day so after my afternoon class yesterday, i hurriedly packed my things to go home. mehn. that was like the best news i've heard this week. and you know how much that saved me? i was able to spare 2 meals worth on that, an hour in the internet cafe, a nescafe freeze (that i can't seem to live without) and a pilot ballpen (lol i was planning to buy a new one because the previous one conked on me). i saved a generous amount of moneeey and i'm so happy!

i also found out another good point with my darned schedule. since my first class on monday is at 9am, it means that i stay in our house on a sunday night and just leave early monday morning. it's works just fine instead of leaving on a sunday night and spending the night in the dorm... =( it also means i have the WHOLE sunday afternoon to chill, go to the mall and try to at least give myself a tiny break after a whole week of classes. elbi is such a desert, everytime i go out i feel like a skewered slab of pork being grilled raw under the scorching heat. ugggghh.

which led me to this: why don't we invent umbrellas with fans on it? can you imagine that? when you open your umbrella with a button, it will first strech out to its usual form, only then can you push another button on the crookhandle that will enable the fan to work (this is a safety measure so you don't accidentally open the fan when the the umbrella is not yet open). it's the most useful thing i could have this summer! and look, if you have a really big umbrella (of course bigger umbrellas will have bigger fans, thus more AIR!!!) and you're going to the beach, you can just let it sit on the mat and you'll have a shade and a fan rolled into one.

if you're worried about the weight, you shouldn't because i'm sure our mechanics will have the right solutions to make it really light. and if you're worrying about your hair getting stuck in the fan, come on.. i can't just let you die of that would i? of course there'll be safety parts included, the propellers (which could kill you and cause a rain of blood under the umbrella) will be secured enough not to let even a strand of your hair tangled within. yeah

of course, it's just an idea! but it's so possible!!!
tell me it's amazing. lol

DISCLAIMER: ok. i just realized that i'm not the first first person who thought of this. but IF EVER you got this idea from me first and plan to execute the proper procedures to produce the product, you must ask for my permission first. i'm very generous to people who ask. i might even help you.

lol. i'm not joking. i'm seriously considering having a gadget like that. if it sounds ridiculous to you, tell me so. i'm just proposing it to anyone who would appreciate. i mean, i don't have the proper skills to produce such thing that's why i'm posting it here.

hahaha. please be kind.

---------

our lessons were ok. real torture will come on the succeeding weeks where everyday we have a quiz, everyday we pass prelab reports and everyweek we have exams. hmm, exciting. why, i just can't afford to fail this subject. imagine the feeling of fulfillment when you passed chem17 on you FIRST TIME, in just 1 MONTH. that's remarkable enough to consider yourself a genius, but then again my only goal is to get on the real schedule along with my regular batchmates. after that, all the next summers are mine. but apparently, that won't happen until 3 years since i have to fill up the 18 units i'm delayed in. ah, whatever.

yey. i wanna go to the mall!!

*i'm putting this under category: tech because... because it sounds appropriate. does it...?

balik primelink

haha. i'm back at primelink.

i just went to check my stats today.
i realized i'm rank#1 on yahoo when you search 'opm songs backmasked'
i'm also on some google search feed page when you search 'penshoppe'
this site can be found in windows search live when you key in 'ferrari'
in msn search i'm part of the first page when you look for 'penshoppe stretch pants'

so yeah. what's saddening is the fact that i just merely mentioned those keywords in my blog and i'm not really supplying enough information on the matter. heck this is a personal blog, what do you expect. hah. couldn't care much.

i'm excited to go home.
no matter what happens i'm gonna buy new flats and that white musk perfume from body shop (care for an advanced birthday gift?). i was trying to save for the perfume because they have a promo so i get a free moistuzer for every thousand but what happens to my allowance is... well it goes poof! gone. i eat a lot. well, i really need to eat a lot because i'm in a very poor health condition.

chem17 has started. the lecture was boring. the lab... it could be fun, but our first quiz was like 'whoa. where the hell did that came from?' i doubt anyone got that blasted question right. and you know what, i'm sooo overusing the word 'fuck'. not just in this blog. well, i think it's better than a shet and PI. hahaha. i freak a little when i hear someone curse in Filipino. e kasi mas nakakatakot pakinggan. diba??

i like our first experiment, 'Flame Test'. coooooll. elements when heated give off a unique trend of colors! they're just so wonderful to look at. i spilled HCl on my hand and it itched and burned like hell. haha good thing it wasn't that bad. my lab gown stinks already and i can't bring it to the laundry because we have lab everyday. hahaha. fun. i'm starting to love chem, seriously. but then again... my brewing passion for chem is inversely proportional to my grades.

very. ironic.

the good, the bad, and the ugly

my previous summer schedule says this
now it says thisso parang nabaliktad lang naman.

the good: the good thing is i still have breakfast and lunchbreaks. well, that's the only good thing.

the bad: ugggh. i hate it. why do they have to put the lab before the lecture? that's like so useless! a lecture pretty much sums up to a prelab! and prelabs are so fucking important and most of the time the 'key' to our predated quizes. mehn. i hate my schedule.

and wait.

the ugly: i'm gonna skate with my friends on the 28th! how do i fit that into my schedule? the1st sched is already a big ok-i-think-i-can-handle-that because i have the whole saturday afternoon to spend malling and skatiiiinnng (the only thing hyping me up. that was before). but now... i don't know what will happen to me.

the least you can do is pray for me that i pass this blasted thing.

lol. i miss mike.

i.need.a.good.news.
