so it's already our christmas break

the chancellor announced that there will be no classes starting today until the end of the holiday break. of course this doesn't apply to people who have scheduled exams for this week, like me.

i just got back from my microbiology exam and i'll be bumming for the the rest of the day if i don't get something to do... like hang out with kat, watch Full Metal Alchemist or go carolling with my orgmates later. i wish for all of them to happen this day...i'd trade anything just to keep me from turning eating into a hobby.

i also decided to try out BioFit slimming tea after hearing numerous good remarks from my own credible sources. i'll probably buy a box this weekend and go punish myself for the rest of the break. i need to shed off unwanted fats and get in shape, without actually exercizing... i'm just too lazy for that.

for some reason, i can't wait for next year. why? because i wanted to bombard my planner with what-nots already. i even made advanced notes already and relocated my friends' birthdays. want me to greet you? tell me your birthday! hehehe maybe i'm a little too obsessed with wanting to further divirginize my planner (because it's too expensive to be left blank). i'm no good when it comes to minimizing space, i'm a certified maximalist (you can check my devart account for proof).

the food fest will push through tomorrow, according to my classmate. SUCKS BIG TIME!

hey, i'll probably do some major downloading today...so maybe i'll spend it at Boston Cafe. hehehe

here's a list of series i wanna download (in case i forget)
- Heroes
- Gossip Girl
- Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
- blah blah blah SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH
- movies
- asian series.. :)

still at home

i decided not to go back to los banos tonight because i want to maximize my stay here. i might not attend our org finals and christmas party for practical reasons but then i'm still 50-50 on it. depends on whom i'm coming with... and besides, i haven't really been in the mood to act bitchy towards applicants...i'm on my 'easiest' mode this semester (because i'm leaving soon -but who knows-) and it's sad because only 2 have reported to me...hehehehe :)

anyway.

the satisfaction of expensive gift giving. weeeeh. >__>;

4 things i've come to appreciate this day

i. note taking during the sermon at church - it prevents me from sleeping while the pastor is talking

ii. the 'thrill' of overtaking slow people in the mall - since i'm more of a weekend shopper, i realized it takes some skill to endure (and appreciate too) an overcrowded mall... i actually find it amusing dodging people on the counter flow and overtaking walkers to reach my destination faster. haha, i know there's no need to rush but i don't go malling during weekends without a list of things to buy, and walking slow bores me especially when all there is to see is a mob of heads moving at snail's pace.

iii. rerwiting my notes/studying in the mall - i don't know why but just recently i find it more comfortable to study at the mall. as soon as i get a good seat (alone), be it in the food court, in a restaurant or in a coffee shop, my notebook will soon make its way on the table. every friday when i go home from los banos, i always drop by at SM megamall to eat dinner and there do my notes-transferring thing. between studying at home or in the mall, i take the later. hahaha, ewan ko rin eh

iv. the satisfaction of expensive gift giving - yeah right, it's the thought that counts... hehehe i don't really know why (i need more time to observe my gift giving habits) but i don't budget my money when it comes to giving presents or giving treats (as opposed to how i turn rather stingy budgeting my weekly food allowance). i always tend to pick costly items on the shelf. i don't really mind...as long as i have money. hahaha, i'm not rich... i just like being generous with others... and more generous with myself. lol

which brings me to this...
the 2nd most expensive gift i bought for myself


A MOLESKINE PLANNER!
which i immediately devirginized (for a lack of a better term) a few minutes after i bought it.




yey! that's one item i've been eyeing on since i first saw it at fully booked. hehehe. i know i know, there's no sense of practicality on buying a moleskine product... for the very obvious reason that it's too expensive. even if i say, "it's ok since i'm gonna use it for a year" or something stupid like "it's the legendary notebook used by picasso, van gogh, hemingway and chatwin!"... it wouldn't count as a valid excuse. hehe

it's a luxury item. :] and as i mentioned, the 2nd most expensive thing i bought for myself. the first was an mp3 player (well, it's dead and replaced now) which was hard-earned because it took me 8 months of manual laundrying (literally) to get it. lol

and because i just spent my savings last week plus half of my allowance this week... i'm on a delata diet once again! XD

eng'g meet 09 pre-pageant night

probably the highlight of this week (for me). :) i didn't know we were supposed to wear black (i was wearing white).

anyway... i came to ee audi looking like crap, like i have any reason to look otherwise. then there we were, the most populous org in all of CEAT, over-crowding our designated place, cheering like hell, laughing like crazy. it was a very fun event, lots of eye-candies and swoon worthy male candidates. lol XP

AND FCK, I DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO BE ON THAT STAGE. i always thought he's just all looks and no guts but he totally blew me off. not gonna tell who. but really, i've mentioned him before as a very conceited, self-conscious, always-aware-of-girls-looking-at-him kind of guy. and where else could he best prove that? ON STAGE DAMMIT, how smart. >__<; of course his presence was breathtaking, but part of me didn't want him to be there. more exposure = more fangirls for him. and more fangirls = more, uhh, competitors? lol i'm not really into competing for heartthrobs. you know me as someone who hates sharing her fandoms with other people unless i'm the one who promoted it. lol, and because it's happening again, time to leave. bwahahaha :) ---- aymbrowk.
i realized i have no enough money to buy my parents plus my sister a gift. my mom requested a perfume, my sister wants a UP shirt but i want something more special for her (like a phone! i'm a failure when it comes to saving ;_;), and i've got nothing in mind for my dad yet... and i want to buy a moleskine planner for myself.

i need around 2500 for that. hehehe
sucks not to have money for christmas. T__T;

but heeeey! i think i've got a brilliant plan.

I PROMISE... BEFORE
I GO OFF FOR CHRISTMAS VACATION, I'M GONNA BUY THEM PRESENTS! :)

MOVED! yet again

LIVEJUNK.BLOGSPOT.COM

please update your links. i've relocated yours as well. :) hehehe

weh!

done moving in! yehey

because i like my LJ layout, i made this page look like it, just with a different color. hoy wag ka! it took me several hours to edit this layout. naloka ako. T___T;; the task that took most of my time was integrating Ramani's selective expandable entries hack to a Gecko and Fly layout. ang hirap kaya! puro error. pero dahil adik ako, nagawa ko syang paganahin. ang sakit sakit na nga ng ulo ko e.

and the result... something like an LJ cut.

tenen!


OO! eto lang yung result nung pinaghirapan ko. actually, i've used this hack before pero the base layout was a blogger default kaya madali lang ilagay...pero ngayon kasi, i used a third-party layout kaya iba yung tawag sa mga bagay bagay. basta ganun, e bakit ba, nahirapan ako eh. T__T; labo

i updated my links. i erased all the dead links. yehey.

i'm pretty proud of myself for making this work on all browsers... well i've tried viewing using the IE-firefox-opera trio hahaha, ok naman sya.

hmm...ang di ko na lang nagagawa ay palitan ang comment system. i'm more comfortable with haloscan...but i forgot my password...so hmm...bayaan ko na lang yun. T__T;

hahaha

hmmm...i think i would have to sacrifice the org finals and christmas party para lang makauwi ng maaga. wala na kong pera e. T___T; hahaha
