getting the hang of minesweeper II

this is crazy! i never knew that's HOW you play minesweeper until it dawned on me that this is one of a hell similar to the other games i've played before. why didn't i learn of it way back when we were just familiarizing ourselves with xp? hahaha anyhow, i love minesweeper! yeahyeahyeah.

hehe, still the same! ALMOST done with good omens. it's so funny, i can barely get the plot right. lol. i dwell too much on the asterisks, they make really hilarious footnotes. and you don't always see footnotes in novels, ayt?

right! i'm almost forgetting i'm a romance novel freak.
i used to laugh (secretly of course) at this classmate of mine back in highschool because she seemed to be overwhelmingly absorbed with her books which happen to be judith mcnaughts and daniel steels. funny, really, i could just laugh at myself right now for being so mean to her (mentally), when back then, someone could just be laughing just as hard at me, for reading Coehlo religiously, every in-between periods, recess and dismissal time. well, isn't he the one of the wisest authors around? just as how judith mcnaught (or daniel steel) could be one of the most emotionally provoking authors of all time?

man, i really wouldn't know. it's unfair to call me a late bloomer for recognizing mcnaught's reign over superficial romance stories just now. hahaha

why do i have this urge to completely rid myself of a sidebar?
i feel the need of a wider, like 600px wide, space only for my entries and just chunk only the important sidebar contents on the horizontal navigation bar. but then, it's gonne be troublesome. hayhay.

getting the hang of minesweeper

it's now my new favorite game! hahaha

as you've noticed, i've revamped my blog yet again, using the same header. i'm quite happy that finally i'm able to add horizantal navigation links using XML though what i'm fumbling about right now is how to incorporate my archives in a single blog entry so that i can index it right away and get rid of the awfully long list it makes on the sidebar. i'm trying to make this blog look like a website and not just a blog. hence i had to get hacks on adding a page element above the header. hehehe

so far, so good. what do you think? i haven't checked this yet in a different node -which is what i do to see if there are any misaligned elements. then i can proceed to validate this one. (ooops, 300+ errors! lol)

i'm kinda sick by the way. but i'm getting better, thank God. i thought i have to cancel this friday's sleepover, haaay, i don't want to! everytime i invite my friends over i always get sick when the date arrives. curse? haha wdthl.

i'm almost done reading good omens. sucks i really have no patience when it comes to sci-fi (or is it?), basta romance parin da best! hehe

diliman adbentyur!

ate sheryl slept here last night! hehe pero wala si ate aiza... hehehe :) anywhow.
awhile ago i accompanied her to diliman... ayun adventure! hahaha actually, di naman ako maalam dun eh... bwahaha, we paid for her dorm fee (kalayaan dorm), then strolled... under the fckdamt early noon sun haynakuuu ang iniiiit. pero ok lang hehehe



i was supposed to go straight to SM to read. oha, gusto ko magpalamig at tumambay sa the bloc, i even brought my dear pocket books pero i decided to just go practical and go home instead... hahaha kaya eto! hehehe

at least nakatipid ako ng pera pang-gala! hahaha

u da bum!

i've been wandering aimlessly in our house and nothing seems to interest me enough by involving myself in it. usually when i'm bored, i antagonize our maids by ordering pointless things and just snobbing them to death but THAT'S BEFORE. i quit doing it when i realized it isn't cool scaring your maids like that. and plus, it doesn't add to the senorita factor, if that's what i'm afraid of losing.

i quit being a bad girl when i realized we're not really rich and i cannot compensate my foul attitude towards them with my own money because in the first place, I HAVE NO MONEY. at all.

ate sheryl and ate aiza (whom i haven't known personally, yet) haven't texted me if they're pushing through here tonight, although i'm positive they will, i'm just aching for a companion. gaarr... and i'm also looking forward to the dvds ate sheryl promised me.

if not driving school, then i'll probably go nuts doing nothing at all. maid chores are not my type, unless i'm being scolded for it. going online has been part of my summer routine and honestly, i didn't think i'd be running out of webpages (fast-loading, low content pages to be exact) to browse. i'm not even used to having 0 mail messages at all.

this is nuts.

yes i bought i book, i haven't started reading it because i thought it's unfair to start with it without finishing the other one. and for the sake of reading almost heaven i have to go through neil gaiman's version of armaggedon first. looks like i have to go through hell before i get to heaven... and if by some grace you actually got that unintended should-be-humorous pun, why, thank you.

i have 8 multicolored gel pens and they've been sitting on the table with an incomplete artwork for days. i got lazy. that's all. and it's been plaguing me. i'm not a fan of routine but i'm not a fan of endless bumming either which will eventually become a routine if i don't do anything about it.

i seriously couldn't move without money. i wanted to go out but i always had to take the money factor. i don't even have enough money to cover the fare and besides, where will i go? it sucks not being in school for it also meant not having your allowance.

and what will i do when i get my allowance? i'll save some and spend some on the things i should be prioritizing... the starbucks tumbler and gc i promised for instance. if there's a way i could haggle the item down, i would love to, but i'm not really in the mood for one on one talks with my seniors. <<<<<< ya proly wudunt get tha.

ok, i just need money that's all.
i emptied my wallet for yesterday's tithes, i was even hesitating but i ended up doing the 'sacrifice' anyway. wouldn't be a sacrifice in the first place if i'm having my allowance,ayt?

ayt!

ola, something great's bound to happen.
ya jas hafta weyt.

image shack! (uplb waitlist help?)

because photobucket still gives me those irrelevant warnings, i moved to image shack just awhile ago (without deleting my pb account tho). so instead of hosting my layout images in pb, i'll do it in ishack now. err, duh.

I FINALLY FINALLY HAVE A NEW BOOK!
Almost Heaven by Judith McNaught still... i was eyeing on Until You because it acts as a semi-sequeal to Whitney my Love, this time featuring the leading man's brother, Stephen Westmoreland.

i owe my growing fancy to dukes and counts to judith mcnaught now. lol.

that's probably going to be my next book, Until You. ok, so i'm off to a new favorite! Hello Judith! lol, couldn't get any more obvious huh?

i checked my stats and figured quite A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE GOOGLE INQUIRIES ABOUT BEING A UPLB WAITLIST APPLICANT.

well, friends if you happen to read this... you can drop me a note via the QUESTION BOX or just the tagboard, or simply comment on this one... i'm always online naman eh so maybe i can help you.

i want new friends! maybe we can exchange numbers? LOL.
i'm playing good with the batch 2008 oh. hehe


still excited with the new apartment! thing is i have to save a lot to buy the necessary 'furnitures' like a decent dining table, receiving area and most specially my personal study desk and cabinet (if there's none cos i haven't checked the rooms yet).

I'LL BE SLEEPING ON AN AIR BED!!! coolnes, so that means i'm closer to the floor! haha hello dust?

geekdom!

i got bored reading good omens, not because i'm merely experimenting if sci-fi's my thing (i figured i'm more of a romance novel geek), but mainly because i've been getting nasty headaches these days. i want to finish it, seriously, because i adore neil gaiman's wit and hilarious puns and his books are those types of books i wouldn't want to speed read because i want to absorb the whole book. no wonder it's taking me gazzilion years to finish.

i asked yndi for recommendations aside from whitney my love, i haven't told her i already read the book. so far she gave me three promising titles and i'm just aching to go to national bookstore to grab just one!!! but you know, it's still the money that's stopping me from enjoying my geekdom!

huhu. ate sheryl (along with a friend) is going to spend monday night here in our house! hehe! wow sleepover! ayos! hahaha and probably on friday, the alleged walang tulugan slumber party with karlita, larz, michi plus others who might wanna join too will push through!

lol, buti na lang there's something called house party, at least it saves money diba? haha

11 8210 spells dead fantasy

as much as this day spells our last power memory sessions. i swear, even though i was cursing my parents for breaking my bumming habits this summer AT FIRST, eventually the alleged punishment for my scholastic downfall became, after all, a GIFT!

i learned so much and my memory skills improved, dramatically! halelujah! i feel more confident to retake microbiology just to prove that i learned something cool this summer that would help me ace the blasted subject.

we retook the diagnostic test... we were given the same sets of tables to memorize in 8 minutes overall. that's 80 random objects plus 200 random numbers arranged in two separate tables.

well, it is expected, of course that we do better... and i did! thank you Lord!! last time i roughly memorized around 17 items but now i got 40! yeaaah...

and with the numbers... man i suck, but last time i think i got 24 numbers correctly, compared to now... i guess i got 40 numbers right. well, compared to the 200 items we're supposed to cram into our minds in 4 minutes, hey, that's relatively good enough.

and the techniques are so comfortable to use it suits everyone!!!

now i'm excited to use it to memorize the functional organic groups!!! yehey for that.

but i'm thinking... i still have a grade of 4 in chem40... and something's telling me that i could just drop it and ask the college to make it a 5 w/o taking the removals so that i'd be given the subject next sem. but anyway, i wanna practce discipline with myself.

whew.

hey, i'm back to geekdom!! unless, my parents enroll me in a driving school! waw! exciting!! wooooh!
