Recovering from the summer blogging slump [5] 2007-04-26 16:42:56 It seems like I’ve been on some kind of blogging slump. Mostly because summer permits me to actually have some time not to just waste solely on the internet. I still end up browsing for a bit though, especially when insomnia hits past midnight. Oh what should I do??? Regardless of a terribly exhausting day or not, I still end up like the nocturnal person I don’t want to get used to be.
Shush. The things that bother me during summer time. Sweet.
A few days ago, my fabulous Candy Council of Cool 7 friends met up for a meeting in Greenbelt. Our brainstorming session went rather well, and we were able to come up with lots of good ideas. In between all the Candy-related business, we ended up having so much fun by just catching up, sharing, talking, laughing and making jokes. I’m so thankful I was given this chance to be a part of Candy magazine, meet the fabulous editors and work with these beautiful girls. Despite age, batch, school, and even personality differences,
Reeling from Episode 20 of Heroes [2] 2007-05-02 06:35:55 Peter Petrelli owns me.
Fear not. This is a spoiler-free reaction. Don’t be surprised if I’m going to be at my utmost fandom point, because I just finished watching the best episode of Heroes an hour ago.
I wish I could post my theories, my rants and raves, but I know some of you guys might not want that at all. How does Tim Kring do it??? The storyline is nothing short of brilliant. The twists are aptly put. The way the characters are developed are amazing. It’s freakin exciting! It doesn’t end up becoming some mindless action, X-Men rip-off of a show. It isn’t hard to sympathize with the characters and follow through their adventures. It’s just too good. And it will be very painful for all this to end so soon.

To those who follow the show religiously, comment and tell me I’m not alone. Haha.

Two days away from the sun [3] 2007-05-07 16:56:06 The cool, breezy winds of Baguio was just what I needed to get away from the piercing heat of the summer sun here in Manila. The drive going there was surprisingly shorter than usual. Or at least it felt like it. Must be because I was in total slumber from the moment I got inside the car up until we reached the mountains of Baguio. Amazing. Total eyes-wide shut some freakin 4 hours after. Upon arrival, the change in weather was totally refreshing. The usual unbearable coldness was nowhere to be felt. It was just perfect.
Gotta love the happy sunflower background. That’s me with my sister and cousin.
Aside from my mom and sisters, my aunt, cousin and my mom’s friend went along for the trip. Almost everywhere in Baguio exudes a unique city-like chillax environment. So I found myself wanting to lie down and sleep for the most part of the day. Sure beats the insomniac, nocturnal days here.
Of course, we went to the usual hotspots, shopped for the usual pasalubong and t
Reunited and it feels so good [1] 2007-05-11 08:17:16 Wow. The hits from Candy and the sweet people over at StealThatLook are wonderful. I hope that all my new visitors can make their presence known by giving a comment or just email-ing me. I really enjoy hearing from all of you.
One more month left to enjoy before school starts, and the piercing heat is suddenly replaced by intermittent rainshowers. Despite my fondness over rainy weather, it makes it hard for me to go from one place to another. Whaaa. I’ve been busy. I’m all over the place with so many assignments and responsibilities to handle and take care of. None of which are school-related, but more like ‘work-related.’ The perks are awesome, but I find myself obviously tempted to lie down and continue watching my endless supply of series. But no can do. What sucks most is that they are all happening at the same time, and I have no choice but to sacrifice one for the other. And it feels terrible when I know I’m letting someone down.

Summer's Sweet Escape 2007-05-22 22:52:44 I phrased the title that way because as soon as I got on board our 5:10AM flight to Cagayan de Oro, Gwen Stefani’s SweetEscape
blasted through the plane, and turned my happyhappy (mode#1, hun. haha.) mood just a little bit up the notch. at 5AM folks!!!
My trip last weekend counts for a full photo blog entry. I’ll try my very best to not go crazy with the photos and just focus on the highlights. Mainly because there were one too many, and everything seemed to fall under the unforgettable category. But I digress.
This was definitely a spur-of-the-moment plan of the ‘mommys.’ You see, I have an extended barkada. From my close circle of friends, I have three friends whose families are also close to my own family (inclusive of thy sweet siblings). Jam, Karen and Adrian are three of my close high school friends whose parents (moms most especially) are considered as close friends of my own mom. To make it even more interesting, their own siblings: Jam and her two Read more:Summer

The many moods... modes of Pearl [3] 2007-05-28 23:34:26 I missed blogging. I feel like I have so much to say, but no time to write. At this point, everything just makes me feel so overwhelmed. I’m bored, busy, worried, bummed, whatnot. Nothing positive right there, but I’m working on it.
When I have my hands supposedly full with a million things to worry and be concerned about, there comes this point when I just want to whisk myself away from it all and just forget. At least for a moment. Most especially when I’m at the comforts of my own home. Shucks. Perhaps this is a sign that I can’t work at home. My usual intense self will not work. I need the action, the rush, the chaos.
Sigh. The many modes I go through to accomplish what I have to. My boyfriend categorized my ‘moods’ into ‘modes’ and created 5 distinct ones. Apparently, he thinks he knows me too well. haha. But I have to say I found all these amusingly accurate. He says I can be so transparent it’s just too easy. So here g Read more:Pearl
What Six Years of Web Design Has Done [1] 2007-05-31 04:21:27 I have no idea how I can find idle time amidst my ‘workload.’ My initial intentions of putting it off for a bit is working against me by experiencing these sudden attacks of boredom. Happens rarely in my case, because I’m just not one to succumb to it. I’m a doer, and not one to be a bum. And I get easily amused and distracted, so imagine the frustration of being ‘bored.’ Hayayay.
Amazingly enough, I have a best friend who happens to be bored when I am too. haha. Together, we make the best YM conversations in the planet. It’s soooo much fun to just talk about anything with her. From the mundane to the downright scandalous. We always end up making each other laugh out loud. We are also expert party and event planners. So if ever you are in need of some planning, just holler at us. Jazmine, we rock.

Day-night-day out with best friends [4] 2007-06-03 10:21:22 I guess I’ll start off with the obvious new layout. Honestly, I’ve been in a total design rut the entire summer. And even until now, I still think I’m suffering. It’s really depressing. But I had to change the layout. Summer is a thing of the past, and rainy days are out to come and get me. Tomorrow, I will be going back to AdMU for regform distribution. School’s here, and I’m still not fully into it. Wonder what happens next.
I do hope you guys appreciate the color scheme used. It’s a pretty unconventional use of colors, but I’m all for that. I think it works, but will probably take some time getting used to. I’m sort of on the fence over this version, but I just can’t make myself do another layout. Oh my… I need my muse. Nevertheless, comments are very much welcome. Send me love notes via comments. Weee.
So just before school finally starts, my best friends and I scheduled another whole-day affair. We started off
Nearing end of summer and the start of a new sem 2007-06-09 03:45:21 Why, oh why do I have to get a really crappy random number for picking out classes and schedules this time my Junior year?! It was insane. Call time was 1:40, and I finally ended up with the final list of classes 3 hours after – a far cry from minutes of enlistment from previous sems. I went through hell and back just to fight for a good sched. Fortunately, I was probably one of the luckiest in my block to get a decent sched with great teachers. The only perks of being one of the last few ones, and dearest Earl as the person who helped me enlist was that I ended up having closed classes for Philo and a conflicting Arcilla History class with my PolSci major. Because of that, I had to be ‘buffered.’ That meant calling up departments so that I may be considered for other classes. The best part? I got to pick my desired classes and have a good schedule at the end. Of course, I had to go back and forth, endure the long lines, and pray tirelessly to get the slots I wanted.
I'm Finally A Part Of The Upperclassmen [3] 2007-06-14 06:04:35 Having finished a class in Faura that I was solely in (no blockmates whatsoever I mean), I was walking alone towards MVP (the building of all organizations in the Ateneo), when a group of college freshmen (which I assumed were blockmates) were talking and giggling wildly beside me. That’s when the reality of being a college junior finally hit me! Kanya kanya na. Not that I minded being alone, nor that I wasn’t with any of my blockmates for that class. In fact, I actually enjoyed it. New faces every class. New things to learn from them. The class is His165 or a Rizal/Philippine History course under Dave Lozada, and if it wasn’t for schedule complications, I wouldn’t have gotten that slot. Ha! I was with RegCom and early reg people. The many positive comments I’ve been hearing about him are overwhelming, so I knew the class wouldn’t end up to be a bore. Besides, I’ve always enjoyed Philippine history ever since it was taught back in 5th grade by Read more:Finally
109th Anniversary of the Declaration of Philippine Independence And More 2007-06-12 09:38:25 While waiting for my mom to finish whatever she’s having done at the dentist, I grabbed a copy of today’s Manila Bulletin and chanced upon an editorial column by Adrian Cristobal. I’m not an avid reader of the MB as compared to the Inquirer, but I do enjoy reading editorials the most.
Oooh.. I found the article. I guess I will just blockquote some parts that are from his article.
Moveable Fete
Our nationalists complain that we are still dependent on the US for, among other things, economic and military aid, and the direction of our foreign policy. To many Filipinos, the true “mother country” is America and not Spain, which was here for more than three centuries.
Our independence was granted or returned with the Parity Amendment to our Constitution as an exchange deal. For years, we blamed our mass poverty on our continuing dependence on the US until, one brief, shining moment, parity was no longer in force.
Still mass poverty, with he Read more:Anniversary

In My Own Bubble [6] 2007-06-20 02:34:07 The first few days of school didn’t really feel like the usual first few days. Except maybe during photocopying moments, wherein every freakin photocopying machine in the Ateneo is either filled with long lines or crammed with a bulk of photocopying jobs. And as a PolSci major, readings make up most of my subjects. Our readings lists are insanely long, and require occasional trips to various photocopying machines. I have befriended several ‘xerox ladies and gentlemen’ with the hopes that it will come to my advantage eventually.
My MWF Histo and Philo classes are still very much manageable and enjoyable. In fact, it doesn’t even feel like a class at times. Sir Dave Lozada’s class is always a joy with his storytelling, and I find myself engrossed. For Philo, we have yet to start formally, but our past sessions have been surprisingly interesting.

Mustering strength [2] 2007-06-28 06:41:58 I’m not sure exactly how this entry is going to be like. But I’ll try to keep all the angst minimal. This is one of those moments when I wish to divulge everything, but can’t. I will try, and hopefully won’t end up regretting this. More importantly, I’m going to try and muster enough strength
to update just because I don’t know if I have that in me at this moment. Be gentle with me.
I wish I could say that the past few weeks since school started has left me euphoric and excited. Unfortunately, it has turned out to be these series of unexpected (maybe even down right unfortunate) events that leave me asking for strength every single day. How things have taken a 180 degree turn is beyond my knowledge. At times, I’m still left dumbfounded – grasping for answers. And to say I’ve been down is an understatement. A roller coaster of emotions knocks on my door every day, and I can’t help but let it in and take me for a ride. It woul
Early morning contemplation [1] 2007-07-01 19:22:52 Good morning, world. It’s 7:40am and I’m here in the Ateneo typing the early wee hours away inside the RSF. Blame it on my two early-bird sisters, who made me wake up at 5:30 for a 9:30am class. So, what best way to waste time than contemplative blogging 101.
First of all, let me thank all those wonderful people who commented at my previous emo-ridden entry. To those who txted and expressed their concern, let me just say that all of you guys really helped lift my spirits up. I would want to hug y’all. haha. It’s amazing how you guys tried to interpret what I said, and found it in you to relate to me and my drama-queen-esque mode. I think I’ve perfected (or at least close to) the subtle way of expressing my raw and assertive emotions discreetly and vaguely.
Right now, I’m better. I’ve been striving for positive vibes, and at least now, I think I know where to get them from. Of course, I still think I’m pretty much unstable – rela Read more:Early
Here's to positive distractions [5] 2007-07-07 22:06:24 I’ve never experienced heightened emotions tugging me endlessly in various directions consecutively the way I’ve been having them recently. Well, at least not since I was going through the worst ordeal back in high school. Of course, I was a completely different person then. More impulsive, less mature. But I still never expected this.
Siguro tama na. Isasarado ko na muna hanggang sa makita ko na kara pat-dapat pa itong balikan.
It’s really exhausting, and as much as I want to make things turn out okay. Circumstances prove to make me feel otherwise. I don’t want to be angry. I really don’t. I’m not an angry person. Right now, I just want to get a hold of myself once again, and do some efficient channeling.
My best friend, Jazmine, tells me that I have faith in people easily. I do, and I like it that way. I’d also like to keep it that way. People have betrayed me in various ways and levels before, but that didn’t stop me to remain op
of more reunions and parties [3] 2007-07-15 08:02:36 I met up with some of my high school friends last Saturday at Mall of Asia to do some fund-raiser planning for our dearest friend.
So after quite an emotional meeting, we headed back to my house to pick out clothes, and then to Karen’s to prepare and hang. Picture beside is of my other friends: Karen, Jaz and Lori. It was nice to be able to finally open up to some of my other girl friends. Honestly, talking about our former classmate’s current condition still makes me feel really bad. Right now, I’m just so unstable. I’d like to think that I’m better already, but I can’t help but still get quite emotional over the littlest of things. After gaining much perspective from the devastating reality our former classmate is going through, I do feel like everything that I’m up against and am going through are merely trivial matters. I’m finally beginning to appreciate what I have rather than what I have lost. It’s still about possibil Read more:parties
Harry Potter Book 7 Day! [2] 2007-07-21 08:30:46 Fret not. This is SPOILER FREE.
Oh yes. This post is going to manifest HarryPotter
fandom to the nth level. I just can’t possibly let this magical day go to waste without blogging about this much-anticipated release. I have long been excited about the book – a million times more than the release of the 5th movie. (FYI: I enjoyed the movie incredibly, and thought it was still brilliant.) Besides, after having finished reading the final installment, I just have to have some sort of ‘vent-out.’ Especially since I don’t know anyone who has finished the book at this very hour.
I was happy to wake up pretty darn early to line up for the 7am release over at Powerbooks, Greenbelt. My sister and I arrived 20 minutes before 7, and were already greeted by 2 long lines. It was so hard for me to contain my excitement around my sister and the people there especially when Powerbooks, Greenbelt was transformed to some kind of Harry Potter haven overnight!

20 random thoughts for certain people [3] 2007-07-24 06:14:49 This meme has been spreading around all over multiply and livejournal. And because I feel like I need to have some form of venting out once again, I present you with my own version of this meme.

Win or Lose It's The School We Choose 2007-07-27 05:57:24
My back is still pretty much sore from yesterday’s phenomenal game. I’ve never cheered my heart out for anything so passionately. I’ve always known school spirit during DLSU and AdMU games are contagious, but there were no words to describe how amazing it felt to be part of those in blue and take pride on being part of a school that I’ve always wanted to be in ever since.
Okay. Sige. Cheesy siguro. But it’s really difficult to explain. And watching the game live with the crazy crowd is pure and intense rush.
Best part was the game itself. La Salle put up a fight that lead to a heart-attack inducing overtime. It was amazing to watch both teams battle it out intensely and passionately. Even the hostility between the schools just add more flava! haha. :P
Wait. I think the best part was that we won. And the feeling after was beyond bliss!
I can’t wait for the next DLSU vs. AdMU game!

Of Welcoming the New Month and COC Love 2007-08-04 20:57:56 Birthday month. Yay. Finally. The emotional baggage I’ve carried out the past month has been way too difficult for words. Everyday suddenly becomes a struggle. One day allows me to feel the intensity of a whole spectrum of emotions. I find myself just beyond exhausted.
I’ve been trying so hard to be in control, but I realized that once again, as the ‘feeling’ person that I am, I have allowed things to go beyond my control and affect me intensely. Nabubulabog talaga ako. There were so many days when ‘looking at the bright side’ means nothing. This is for the sole reason that I couldn’t find anything positive at all. Yaaak. Ang drama. Emo to the nth level. But I’ve been way to vulnerable lately that everything just triggers an emotional breakdown of sorts.
And this also includes my freakin acads. Kadalasan, sinisigurado ko na hindi ito maapektuhan. Pero ang hirap. Nagkakataon na laging may test o exam sa susunod na araw. Haaay. Nakaka Read more:Month
After Stormy Days 2007-08-08 21:47:23 After days of some serious downpour, the weather has finally calmed. And I know it’s pretty selfish to say that I wish it was still raining, especially with all the serious damage it can do, but I can’t help but long for more days of rest. Today, I woke up a little less enthusiastic to be greeted by a much brighter sky. Luckily, I was able to sleep for a little bit more than eight hours. That felt good.
Once again, the week came by way too swiftly. And because I have so many things to prepare and accomplish, I hardly had time to acknowledge any more kinds of emotional relapses. In fact, it’s been pretty good. One day at a time, I guess.
Blessed with this ‘free day,’ I’m off to finish all the things I have to do. Next week is going to be crazy. BlueREP deadlines, groupworks for ALL my subjects, midterms, papers and quite possibly a lot more things in between that might lead me to the brink of even more stress. I wonder if turning 20 makes it any
Twentiness 2007-08-16 03:08:43 My internet provider has betrayed me for days starting during my big B-day. I guess I’ve been so used to having net access everyday that it becomes too much of a necessity. Ugh, the struggle. Fortunately, I have it back and I can finally blog about my birthday week.
I spent most of it with my family because I really didn’t want too much fuss over it. I was just happy spending time with them and eating loads of good food.
Uhm… the mirror. haha. My mom, grandma and I attended a food-tasting event at Lepanto. Buffet-galore. It was the place where I held my debut, two years ago. They had table-setting arrangements, cake samples and lots of scrumptious food for us to see and taste. Pictures are over at my Flicker photo page.
As if one buffet wasn’t enough, I had another one at Circles with my family. I guess one day of pure katakawan is not so bad.

Living the 5-day weekend to the fullest [1] 2007-08-20 07:32:39 I just got home from a long, intense, yet surprisingly fruitful shoot for our History165 video project. It was supposed to start at 1:30pm, but we only had the chance to finally shoot 2 and a half hours later. Blame the holiday for the lack of admin people. We had to go through so much red tape. Freakin SOPs. Thankfully, a few contacts, name-drops and kickass, no-nonsense phone calls from mom saved the day.
Our adventure started from Luneta Grandstand, Luneta Park, Intramuros, Fort Santiago and ended back at Intramuros’ Barbara’s Restaurant. For most part, I was donning a shimmery green terno. We had to shoot at several places inside Fort Santiago. So just imagine the flock of foreign tourists wanting to take pictures of me and some of my groupmates, decked out in full Filipiniana gear. I really didn’t mind. I was just glad that we got the chance to shoot there and take advantage of the beautiful spots and scenery. Haaaay… Intramuros is the place to be.

Adjusted, but not so 2007-08-27 09:15:45 I can’t believe that the next weekend is already the start of September! A few more crazy hellish months and I’m off to sembreak haven!
It’s amazing how adjusted I am being in my junior year now. Prior to stepping into Ateneo and experiencing being in the midst of the infamous hell week, you wouldn’t see me pulling all-nighters, cramming papers or studying till the wee hours of the morning. Not that I was a slacker (hardly). I just couldn’t find myself doing all those. Nothing was worth foregoing my beauty sleep.
Slowly, after terror profs, endless groupworks and unthinkable research/paper work, I’ve adjusted my body clock and have learned to make full use of God’s 24 hours a day. Tama ata ang mga magulang ko, abusado talaga ang mga katawan ng kabataan ngayon. Of course, I still don’t think it gets any easier. I may be used to the system, but the workload still gets even more challenging every time. Pagod na ako magreklamo. I do what
Junior mid-polsci crisis [1] 2007-09-18 06:38:16 Last Monday, junior Political Science students had an assembly regarding the special MA program Ateneo has for us to take if we want to. It is a great program anchored into our current undergraduate program, which basically allows us just one year to take graduate courses and eventually earn an MA degree after. Yes. One freakin year ONLY. It is seriously TEMPTING.
I mean, what’s one year?
Damn law school.
The buzz of this MA program around us PolSci students brought about questions on the what do we really want to do after polsci. Are we all set out for law school? Are our hearts devoted to it? There were definitely a bunch of ‘what-ifs’ being thrown around as well. What if we fail? What if we realize it’s not for us? What if we’re all making a big mistake? It’s all too confusing and even scary.
It’s all so fast now. And our decisions and actions become crucial. We find ourselves reevaluating everything, asking all these confusing, Read more:Junior
For now, watch Avenue Q 2007-09-15 23:41:23 I was fortunate enough to have the chance to usher for Atlantis’ Avenue
Q last Friday with some of my BlueREP friends.
I really can’t express how much I loved the show because there are simply no words. I enjoyed it that much. It’s definitely one of the smartest, funniest, most fun musicals I’ve ever listened to, and to see it finally live was spectacular. The cast was just perfect. Felix, Rachel, Aiza, Frenchie, Joel did such a wonderful job to the characters.
This is going to be a short update seeing as I still have so much to do. For now, go buy Avenue Q tickets!!!

A breather from Polsci madness [1] 2007-09-09 09:00:10 I’ve been in an emotional rut for the past few days, and it doesn’t help that there are just so many school-related things I need to worry about. Every now and then, I’ve been trying to get a hold of myself, trying to dismiss anything that will let me fall into a relapse. I guess the stress helps me focus on the things that should matter for the time being. I have to make the most out of everything.
Saturdays are meant to be days of indulgence for myself. My tito happens to be one of the regional directors under the Department of Tourism, and he invited our family to visit the Philippine Tour Operations Association’s 18th Philippine Travel Mart at SM Megamall.
It’s really, really interesting, and I was quite delighted to be in a place full of activity! There were stalls representing the various regions and places all over the country that you will end up having this urge to travel around and realize how many wonderful places there are yet to visit
One day at a time [1] 2007-09-04 07:55:14 My apologies for the few days worth of hiatus and server problems. The important thing is this blog is back up. I also realized I haven’t really backed-up all my files here in this site. And the temporary shut down caused me much alarm. I really want to keep all my archives! That’s why if ever something happens to my host domain, I can move with all my files still with me.
August came and went by super fast that September started without much effect. It only becomes a reminder that the clock is ticking and I’m up against crazy deadlines for all my crucial group works. To my surprise, I can still find idle time to lounge around and hang with my equally sabaw block/group mates. I know that chill modes are definitely a luxury, but I just can’t help but indulge. I guess I will probably end up having one to many and all these will bite me in the ass somehow. Oh sheesh. Let that not be the case. I still want to do well.

School is death [2] 2007-09-28 08:33:17 Uhhuh. I am a drama queen like that.
I can’t even attempt to start making cohesive statements. My thoughts are scattered far and wide, while my mind feels like mush. I am struggling emotionally, physically and mentally. Perhaps one more than the other. But the point is I’m drained, tired, exhausted. This will be random wachamacaulits because all I could think of is sleeping.
I’m missing out on a big BlueRep party and I have to wake up at 5:30 tomorrow for a dentist appointment at 7, a Philosophy JeEP integration seminar at 8:30, and the rest of my killer group works onwards.
Amazingly enough, I don’t look at it at all. I am still quite relaxed. And right now, that’s beginning to bug me big time.
Ugh. I should probably rest. I need all the sleep I can before my series of consecutive all-nighters take place.

A little more and it's over [1] 2007-10-10 23:01:31 Just because there’s free internet here at Starbucks, Corinthian, I’m going to try updating this thing. Starbucks is not exactly my ideal place to study, but that’s probably because I never really found a ‘good’ branch that’s conducive for studying. It’s all a matter of preference, and this one is surprisingly not bad. It’s not far for Ateneo, but not exactly close enough for me to bump and deal with people I actually know. And the place is pretty big, and plays just the right kind of music – easy-listening, motown/jazz and soul. I’m stuck here because I’m still not done studying for my Economics final, which will happen in a few hours. I’m still calm, which means my panic mode will sink in a bit later.
I can’t wait for all my finals to be over. I feel like it’s never going to end, seeing as I still have 2 hugeass papers due even after finals week. One that our group basically haven’t started Read more:little
