Hahaha..
I really can't say anything.
America you did it again, good job! :D
Haha.. *evil laugh*

I mean, really?
It's clear that Kris Allen was no competition for Adam Lambert.
Aside for a couple of good performances from Kris every now and then, he doesn't really stand a chance.
We ALL know that. haha
Even Kris knows that.
People say he's just being humble. But I say he simply knows that he's no match for Adam. haha
I quote Kris saying , "I don't know, Adam deserves this. Im sorry"
haha. You're right dude :)
And his so called "Winning Song" was just painful to listen to (and even watch).
I hope he doesn't release that song in his album coz he's totally gonna humiliate himself.
Unlike Kris, Adam was totally consistent throughout the entire competition.
So what if he's gay? tsk.tsk.tsk.
There's more to an artist that a cute smile and attractive face. Common people! Wake up.

Oh well, I better stop before I get attacked by Allen fans. haha
Call me bitter but you all know it's true. *LOL*

Good luck in your career dude..
We'll be watching :D
Just dance it off >.<

sophomore year here I come !


So I've already enrolled for my 2nd year in college (the day before) .. Yay !
The enrollment process was soo tiring! hmpfff..
They made us go through so many silly steps. We had to wait in line throughout the whole thing.
Good thing that we came early... really early ! haha.
Anyway, I officially have a course now, although I'm not so sure what to expect. haha
But it's all good. It's better that going through freakin' Gen Ed and not have a major at all.

After enrolling, my friends and I hung out at the mall for a while. Here's how we did things in order:
- Darvin got his hair cut.

*see? haha*

- We ate lunch which was soo annoying coz we went to like 10 fastfood/resto's ( BurgerKing, KFC , Jollibee , Red Ribbon , etc..). Because we couldn't decide where we wanted to eat and some were kinda pricey. haha. But we only ended up eating at Mcdonald's coz we kept retreating once we entered every place we went to. haha.
- Maxine bought make-up and a brush.
- I basically didn't do anything. haha.
- We went to cyberzone.. As usual, Darvin looked for a new game.
- Darvin bought himself a new pair of shoes using his parents' money! Oh yeah ! haha.. Converse to be precise.


Haha. It's nice to get out of the house for a while.
I can't wait to go back to school ! :))
But I can't believe summer's almost over.. :c
Ohh well.. haha !

Jun Encarnacion's Salon

Helloooo world!!
So I just came home after my older sister and I have gotten our hair done. :)
After postponing it for many times, we finally did it. haha
As you may already know, I get my hair rebonded once or twice every year or so..
I usually have it done it David's Salon near MCU since the treatment and service is fab over there.
(I highly recommend it to those who might wanna straighten their hair). *thumbs up*
Although it is quite pricey for most people, it's really worth it.
Anyway, even though I totally LOVE David's more than any other place I've tried, my mom wanted me to try this place that my cousin (who is a bit older than me) recommends.
I'm really scared to try other salon's but I thought, "Hey, why not?".

So there, we went to the place near Tayuman to this little parlor with no name. *laughs*
But the guy (or gay) there said that they don't do rebonding treatments, unfortunately.
They only do relaxing. Apparently, relaxing severely damages formerly rebonded hair. So I obviously cannot do that. It's waaaay risky.
He suggested that we go to this other place where his friend works, called "Jun Encarnacion's Salon" (or something, I'm not sure. haha). He told us to look for "Milagring" (his friend's name) so that we would be wouldn't have to wait at all.

So there, we ended up having our hair done at this place located at Tutuban.
Their services are really cheap. So I guess it's good for those who are on a tight budget.
The crew members are really hospitable too (I don't know if that's the proper term.ahah).
And the customer I was sitting next to was nice. I can tell that she was very friendly because she was smiling at me when we accidentally see eye to eye.
She even offered to share her snacks with me. haha. (they were KFC's.. yumm..)
Anyway, the process didn't take as long as I thought it would.
For some reason, time flew by really fast because the soundtrip playing in the salon was very up-to-date! haha. I love every song that played because those were the type of music I would normally listen to. ^^,
That's a really big deal for me because if it were any ordinary salon, they would just play very old and crappy music which will make me fall asleep easily. haha. Good thing it wasn't because I was soo alive during the entire thing. ü
Oh, and by the way.. my sister got her hair cellophaned, in case you were wondering. haha :D

Right now, I'm liking the outcome.. Although I still think nothing beats David's. haha
But it's OK. It's better than my old hair, which is a bit curly on the top but oh so straight in the bottom. haha :D craaazy right?
But since it's newly done, it's exaggeratingly flat with no volume. haha.
That's just the way it is brotha.. But when the months pass by, I'll be expecting to have my old hair back. haha.
I'm not so excited for that part. But right now, I'm just eager to start my new school year already since I'm missing my friends so much.
Also, it's getting really boring at home. I'm just itching to get out of the crib. haha.

Anyway, sitting on the salon's chair for several hours really got me worn out!
I guess I'll be sleeping early tonight.. hehe.
And I HAVE to sleep early because it is our enrollment tomorrow.
I wonder what my friends would say once they see me? haha.
I hope they get used to it really soon. :>














P/S: Tomorrow, I'll be posting the happenings of our family gathering yesterday. I was too tired to go online last night so I wasn't able to post it up. haha.. ü

bugs , boredom, and boys over *toot's* .. haha

Hey hey hey !
Just before I went online, I had a very freakish predicament in the bathroom.
Here's how it went..
So I was like, washing up and stuff like that (and so and so..).
Then I was brushing my teeth when all of a sudden, out of nowhere.. this creepy looking, gigantic centipede or millipede (im not so sure which but it was something like that) came crawling in front of me and going straight to my direction. Oh sh*t.
I was like, "what the f*ck!". haha.
It was so icky and I didn't know what to do because I still had my toothbrush in my mouth and it was crawling sooo fast. haha
I tried calling my older sister and good thing that she was passing by, so she heard me.
I showed her "the thing" and she said that I should kill it myself.. Oh no. haha
Of course I didn't do it. *duh*
I can't even kill a freakin' cockroach.. Let alone a humongous centipede. :D
I didn't have the courage to do it, so my sister had no choice but to kill it.. *aaaw*
Poor thing. haha >:)
Wooot.. What a night..

Anyway..
I have to say, today was so boooooooooring.. to the max!
And to think that it's Saturday, right?
My mom and I were supposed to get our hair done today,again (coz we had to reschedule last time because of my flu).
But we didn't get to do it (again and again.. urrgh) because I had Dysmenorrhea or menstrual pain. haha.
I couldn't even stand up because of the pain. So I most definitely couldn't stay for a couple of hours in the parlor. haha. Another bad timing..
Oh well, I hope we'd finally get to do it on the 18th, a day before my enrollment.

So, in short.. I didn't have anything to do today except sit around and sleep. :c
However, I did manage to watch this series called "Boys Over Flowers" online. haha
The show started airing on TV everyday since Monday. And so far so good..
It's the 1st time that I actually watched a "Hana Yori Dango" adaptation since I didn't get to watch "Meteor Garden" (Thai version) when I was younger.
The show, which we all know, is about a story of a commoner girl *Geum Jan Di* coming into the lives of four amazingly rich and famous students, the F4, in a prestigious University known as Shinwa University which is owned by the family of F4 leader, Go Jun Pyo.
The F4 is known, loved, but mostly feared, among the whole student body but not Jan Di.
She rebels against the ill behaved group. Forcing her to face the wrath of Jun Pyo.
But Jan Di doesn't stand alone. A mysterious and kind member of the F4, Ji Hoo, plays as her sort of "knight-in-shining-armor" and comes to her rescue whenever she's down.
Ji Hoo becomes her inspiration and her 1st love, so to speak.
Eventually, the characters go through unsuspected twists althroughout the show as Jan Di becomes even more close to the group, specially Jun Pyo, on a different level.
With a wide variety of comedy, drama, and romance.. Boys Over Flowers is a definite "must see"
(wow i'm kinda like promoting a movie or something.haha)
Hmm..
I have to say, the show is pretty good. I wanna give props to the great cast, awesome production, and they followed the "Manga" (The original comic book)'s storyline very well.
I even noticed that Kim Hun Joong (Ji Hoo) even dyed his hair the same color as the character on the book a.k.a. Rui Hanazawa. Nice.
And it's so obvious that Lee Min Ho (Jun Pyo) is somehow identical to Jerry Yan, who played the same role in Meteor Garden. But I personally think Lee Min Ho is cuter. *laughs*
(no offense to Jerry Yan or Meteor Garden Fans)
Anyway, I looooove the romantic chemistry of the people involved in the "love rides". haha :p
They all have good connections, specially the lead trio "Jan Di" , "Jun Pyo" , and "Ji Hoo" .
Although we notice the usually childish acting of some of the actors, it's still really good because that's just how most Korean's portray their roles. For example, Song Hye Kyo (Jenny) on "Full House". (right?)
But what I like most about Boys Over Flowers is that, aside from the teen romance bit, is that it has a nice kick of comedy which makes it a lot more interesting and fun to watch :)
You gotta love korean shows. ü

B. O. F. :)

Overall, it's a good show and I'm looking forward to watching all 25 episodes of the series. :)
But they show it waaaaayyy too slow on TV.
One episode actually takes One week to air ! *aww*
They make the show seem longer than it actually is!
That's how rigged Philippine Television is. haha.
So, Im gonna continue watching it online and hopefully finish before school starts. ü
Wish me luck! haha. :D



BBYE NOW
(^^,)




P/S: There's still so much I wanna talk about the show but I have to stop it from here. haha.
I have to sleep early coz we have an outing tomorrow. :)
See yah!

when boredom strikes, oh it STRIKES beybe!

What a coooold Friday.
It's officially the start of the rainy season.. Haiszzz..
I woke up surprisingly early today coz I'm still having trouble sleeping thanks to my oh so untimely flu. *roll eyes*
Urrrgh.. I thought that I would completely recover by now but unfortunately, I haven't. *sighs*
And because of that.. I had to miss out on our grade school reunion. Ohh well..
My former classmates were txting me at the last minute to come join them but I really couldn't make it.
Even if I did, I have to be very careful not to make my condition worse.
Which means that I couldn't like drink alcohol and stuff like that. haha lol.
So what's the point in going if i can't even enjoy it, right?
That's why I didn't go.
Too bad, coz it's been a while since I last went out, drank, or even saw my classmates.
Well, there's always next time, right? (or Janine's debut. haha)

Anyway, I texted with an old friend since grade school and I really sorta missed her because she used to seek to me for advice with her "bestfriend trouble" and stuff like that.
But it turns out that she wasn't keeping in touch for a while because she switched sim cards. haha..
So there, we started catching up on things that we missed out on each other and she ended up still seeking advice from me. haha..
So nothing has changed huh?
Hmm.. Adviceadviceadvice...
Why is it that people can be soooo good at giving advice to others?
But when the time comes that they are in the same situation, they couldn't follow their own preach? haha.. How ironic.
I just kinda realized that when I texted with her. hihi

So there.. Hmm..
Since I had nothing to do at home (again) I tried something different with the playing cards.. haha
I stacked them up and built a house of cards.. (if u can call it that) ü



bottom layer
(it literally took me forever to make this sh*t )

just one layer to go ! and it still tumbles down coz of the fan. haha
i had to repeat it lots of times.. very annoying

*sighs*
i swear, this is the hardest part.
it looks unstable, doesnt it?


tadaaaaahhh !!! IT IS UNSTABLE !! haha

I just took one shot of it then it became..... this !

LOL ! haha
I was soo pissed off that I didn't bother to do it all over again :]
what a mess !
Oh well , patience is really a virtue.. (-karen)
If y'all wanna waste ur time in doing something utterly worthless, try doing this. haha
I dare u :D
There..
Thanks for checking me out
I think I'll stop here na.. ü
Baboosh ! :)

chit chat yadah yadah blah blah..

It's 11:30 PM right now and I've just finished playing cards with my elder sister and my dad.
Wooot! So fun :) And we started playing "pusoy dos" around like 7:00. haha
Yeah yeah yeah.. We had nothing else to do except to watch these late night telenovelas while playing. hehe So I have to say that we were definitely multi-tasking :)
It was a lot of fun though.
I got to kick my dad's butt for a couple of times but most of time, he owned the game. haha.
No fair.. I'm just a lil kid. :]

And yeah, I'm finally starting to recover from my so-like-swine-fluish-flu.
This morning was unbearable though.
I was freakin' coughing my lungs out (CMLO) man, so I guess my only problem right now is my cold and my sore throat. Not bad eyh?
I might even be able to attend our grade school reunion tomorrow :)
I'll leave it up to neozep! lol.

On to a different note..
American Idol result show just aired. Bummer.
Danny Gokey got booted off the show (i know, right?). *sighs*
He's an awesome singer. And I've liked him (and Adam) since day 1.
But, I wasn't soo surprised that it turned out this way because everyone is just so incredibly talented that anything can happen (just like what happened las week when Allison left).
But you know..
Like everybody that have watched the show since the 1st season, it's very clear that this is the most talented bunch of aspiring singers that have come together in one season. *applause*.
So there, im not a big fan of Kris Allen but I think he's ok.
He's gotten a lot better in my opinion. A dark horse, if i may say so.
And like I said, I've liked Adam Lambert since his bohemian rhapsody audition.
So, you pretty much know who I want to win :)
Right right right, he's gay. I know. So what?
That doesn't take away the fact that he's a great artist (& performer).
And in fact, I knew that he's gay loooooooong before the top36 ok?
I just wanted to clear that up because some of my friends keep bugging me about it. haha ! :))
Good luck to Adam and Kris!
May the best man (?) win :]

So, I just wanna make this post very brief since I still have to take some medicine..
So there, Goodnight to everyone.
Toodles for now :>



P/S: Sorry to the ones that didn't relate to my American Idol blabber. haha
Although i doubt that not everyone can relate to it since more people have been watching from last season (Cooks). OMG here I go again. ahaha.. Shoot!

a hitch in your giddy-up


Sick Pictures, Images and Photos

Alright, before you jump to conclusions on what "a hitch in your giddy-up" means, let me tell you right now that it simply means that I am not feeling well. haha (you naughty thing). That's right, for the first time in a veeeery long time, I've gotten a flu. It's not that much of a big deal but since this is my first blog post, i thought that I should at least write something worth reading. Coz I was actually planning on posting up something a long time ago. But since this is summer (and nothing interesting usually happens since I'm stuck in the house), I told myself that I'd start posting when something unusual comes up.

So here i am :)

Anyway, my flu started 2 days ago when i woke up and i felt that my nose was stuffy. I ignored it for a while because i didn't think that I would get sick. I'm as strong as an ox and I rarely get ill so it surprised me to wake up the next morning and i was feeling aaaawful ! I tend to wake up around 10:30 am to watch a koreanovela series (which i love :D), but that time, I woke up arouond 7am because it was hot as hell in my room (or was it just me?). I felt like i was on fire then i immediately asked my mom for medicine. She gave me "bioflu".

One of the best things of being sick is that I get to lay around all day without my mom telling me to do something productive (yeah right). I can just watch TV and chill. Another great thing is that i get to have a sexxxxy voice although my throat hurts a lot and i can't eat (oh well). I make it a point to drink lots of water. I actually drank half of the 5 gallon in our dispenser (which is a lot because i almost don't drink water at all).

Serious Drinking Pictures, Images and Photos

(not like this. haha)


It's kinda ironic that I got sick unsuspectedly.
Specially with the fact that I sleep earlier than what I am accustomed to
(which is around 3 to 4am).
My mom even made me take some vitamin C (another wierd thing because I have a cold now).
I'm really puzzled and i can't figure out how on earth could i have gotten sick like this.
A high school friend of mine texted me and told me that having a flu is "USO" nowadays because of the changing and unusual weather conditions.
Well, maybe i can agree to that since the weather recently is very screwed up.
(one day its sunny, and the next its rainy.. and vice versa).
He also told me that sleeping early(which im not used to) and the vitamins may have "triggered" the toxins in my body. haha
Well, that's his diagnosis.
But whatever happens, I actually missed being sick. haha

But u know, there a lot of things i DO hAteHateHATEhatEhatehate when i get sick.

I really hate the fact that i was sooo weak that i couldn't do my daily routine of 200 crunches and sit-ups.
Which bytes because I've been continuously doing the same routine for a couple of months now.
I'm hoping to get well and get started again :)

I also hate that i couldn't go out because me and my mom were supposed to get our hair done yesterday. arrghhh..

Another thing is that i couldn't take a freakin' bath! which is the most annoying thing of all. I don't like being dirty, or sticky, or smelly, or sweaty... or any combination of the four! haha
I tried washing my face with my facial wash (the antibacterial scrub one),
and my face hurt so bad. haha!
I think my face was sore too because the scrub felt like LIHA to me.
Then i realized, i should've used dove right? haha.
That night, I decided to sleep downstairs (on a matress) because my throat couldn't handle staying in an airconditioned room.
My cold might get worse too.
I didn't get much sleep though. :c
The last thing is that I didn't get to go online for 2 days. hehe.
This is kinda new to me because I usually spend most of my time in front of the computer.
(Maybe that's why i got sick? Watcha think?) :D
I missed this.
And just like I promised, I finally wrote my first post. Yay !
Hope I get better soon so i could attend our reunion with my elementary school classmates ! haha
I'll let you know how that turns out.
Anyway, I gotta bounce. :)
Just wanted to share my "swine flu-ish flu" experience.

I hope this is a good start! ü
Catch you on the flipslide ! :D
