Hello :B

Posted on Tuesday, January 22, 2013


Hello there! haha.. here's a dose of my huge round ugly face to scare the crap out of you guys tonight  just to update this blog of mine. I know I haven't posting anything lately. As a lazy bum I am, I even wonder most of the times why I keep a blog when I'm too lazy to post anyway. 

Anyhow, school started again, alongside with work. I'm a working student now (naks ang sipag...not really HAHA) and nope, so far, hindi pa siya stressful. Thank God. 

I started to see chi again too :">. Seriously, hindi siya nawawala sa usapan haha... syempre kilig forever. ay hahaha XD

Three weeks pa lang tapos tinatamad na ako, pano pa kaya pagdating ng finals :O 

Lord, I know you will help me overcome this term, as much as you did during the past years. Ikaw na po bahala saken :">

I opened it today.

For a second, I heard a pang in my heart.
I still really wished though that he had received it.

Thinking it'll be a waste not to eat it, I took one.
The flavor's sweet and good, yeah, but I don't feel good eating it.

I took another one, but still, I felt bad though the chocolates were so amazingly delicious.
I wondered, Would he have enjoyed it?

 I closed the box and thought to myself that I couldn't eat it so I'll just give it to someone else.
I guess the chocolates somehow remind me how I felt rejected not being able to hand it to him.

It amazes me how one's feeling can affect one greatly.

oh, bench, you really have this one little girl's thoughts wrapped around your finger.

I don't even know how to start..
hmm... so I'll just write down whatever pops in my mind...

I wanted to give him a Christmas gift.
I dunno why, but I just had the urge to give it to him, probably hoping that this could make him a bit happier, (he had been sad for quite a while now)
I may not know why he was down lately, but I just wanted to make him a little happy.
I mean, I know, it might be crazy, we haven't talked much at all. I'm practically a stranger to him, but I really really wanted to.

So taking up all my courage and wishing hard on my luck, I  bought him a gift and went to school (without any clue whether he'll come or not).

SATURDAY.
I stood there for 3 or so hours, waiting for him.
I could have texted him or something, but well, that would make me TOO much of a stalker already so I decided not to.
Sadly, well, I didn't see him. So I took my gift home and waited for another chance to give it to him.

The following FRIDAY
A week has passed, I still held on to my gift, still hoping that I would be able to give it to him. As I sat down the office, I received a text that he was at some printing company, my friend happened to be printing there as well. With her help, I found out that he was going to school.

My heart felt joy. I could see him, I thought. So though I was out an hour early, I rushed to where they were.

But alas, he was gone already.

Thinking he might be at school, I went. He was there, my friends told me, but for some reason, we still didn't meet.

He was so close, but still, we missed each other.

Still hoping, I waited for three whole hours again, outside our campus. Still, the long wait was in vain. No sign of him was found so I went home with my friend.

Today, I woke up from a dream that I was able to actually give it to him. He smiled at me and accepted it. How I really wished it did happen. But I guess, it wasn't meant to be.

I've done my part and if it was meant to happen, it will happen.
I've just gotta trust that my father in heaven has a greater plan for me. :)

another favorite

Last October 6, Saturday, I was lucky enough to be able to go to the last day of Manilart at SMX. I went with a friend of mine and we walked around the entire exhibit for 3 hours straight until my knees and her back began hurting. It was my first time to go to events like that so I was really excited. I'm indeed truly grateful that I came. I returned home, happy and inspired :)

freebies
freebies from Graphika O u O

.
 



One of the biggest surprises I had this year happened last August 11, 2012. It has been a month since I celebrated my 18th birthday so honestly, I wasn't really expecting to receive any gift but then that day happened.

It was the day for the Graphika Manila. Though I told my friends I really want to go, I myself believed that i wouldn't be able to as I had no money to buy a ticket. Imagine, how can I, a person who only has P100/day as "baon", produce P1750 in a month? (it could be possible though if I were not to eat and were to walk to and from Mapua to our House XD). Seriously, I thought "maybe next year..."

BUT THEN, while me and Nathalie were spending our long break at SM Manila window shopping, Nathalie received a message from our friend saying that Kuya Johnny was asking if I was with her. I checked my phone to find messages from kuya asking me where I was. I texted him through Nath's phone (I really don't load much) that i am indeed with her and we were at SM. Me and Nath then continued our window shopping.

That time, I started thinking why he was looking for me. I then remember, reading his dm from twitter earlier that day telling me we should go to Graphika Manila. I answered I can't because I can't afford the ticket. I told this to Nath who began thinking "Hey, Maybe he will take you to Graphika.." We both laughed at the thought, after all graphika Manila was too expensive and having Kuya treat me to it would be wishful thinking.. or so I thought.

Kuya then called. We were at Payless then trying out shoes. On the phone he kept on persuading me to go with him, he even told me that he'll let me borrow money. Of course, I declined, it's unthinkable to borrow P1750 from a friend. I don't really have the heart nor guts to do that XD Still, he kept on persuading me. I remember him "threatening" "Sige ka, pag di ka pumunta, di rin ako pupunta.. Please Dindin, Please...??" hahahahha... Though I am flattered with the thought that he would like me to come along, I really can't bear borrowing such a big amount of money so I replied with "Kuya next year na lang, saka may quiz kami sa EMG maya...". Still he kept on persuading me. I was really thinking then na "Minsan lang to.. sayang naman, siya na nga nag-offer eh.. babayaran ko naman...pero pano ung quiz sa emg?" So Nath and I decided to go check the EMG faculty for any sign of our professor. When we arrived at the faculty we were told she hasn't been seen around so Nath and I decided to study in the library instead just in case. While giving our bags to the "luggage counter" Kuya called again. I couldn't hear him clearly so I had to step out, he then told me about his REAL PLAN...

The truth was, he was REALLY gonna treat me to the Graphika Manila. He was planning to tell me in the place of the event itself that the ticket is his gift to me and I don't need to pay him. Of course hearing this I told him I take back what I said and since it would be for free I would go with him. I was really really really really really HAPPY. I really didn't expect for it to happen. after all it was his birthday the day before and I wasn't even able to give him any gift and here he is giving me a gift. Mixed emotions of happiness, shock and embarassment came upon me. So when Kuya told me he would pick me up at SM, I came running XD haha (SERIOUSLY I WAS RUNNING ALL THE WAY TO SM) hahahhahah...

After around 20 mins he arrived, and we went to the event. i really learned alot plus there were so many freebies so it was real fun. In addition, my prof was absent that day so I really had nothing to worry about. :)

It was the first time I received such an expensive and thoughtful gift from a friend that's why i treasure my first graphika Manila experience. Hopefully by next year I would be able to return the favor to Kuya and make him real happy too on his birthday. :)

It has been so long since I last updated this blog of mine..
Things has been hectic for the past weeks, shoots and programming took most of my time. Still I had real fun this term, I experienced a lot of things --- birthday surprises, stalking (LOL i know, creepy),  acting, swimming, sleepovers and such. At least some things me and my friends worked hard for this term will be worth it. :)

being vain at our school's Mac Lab, I look like Lilo 
from Lilo and stitch LOL

sleepover of the patatas girls

These photos were taken during our shoot for our music video plate for video editing. All us girls stayed over  at Nathalie's condominium to shoot the remaining scenes. It's the first time for me to sleep together with them so it was really exciting and fun. We did all the "girly girl" stuffs while the boys went home. Sadly, i was too tired that night so I was the one who slept earliest. XD

"special dishes" we, patatas, made during our break times

These were actually from our leftovers. hahahha.. We actually look forward to doing these dishes every time we eat out. It has been an exciting part of meal time :) LOL

*sighs* Too bad I won't be able to attend next term because of financial reasons. I will really miss being with my patatas friends. Well at least it's only for 3 months so I guess it'll be fine :)

something I did last Aug (the one in the painting is 
a dear friend of mine) :)

watercolor doodle of my cute little baby Chuwee
He wouldn't be at peace unless I sit beside him
so before I can go back
to painting I had to wait for him to sleep
kind of sweet right?
