| Our IP topics got rejected! :(( It was so saaaad. I had to go back to the library and stuff like that. I don't want to talk about it anymore because its just gonna upset me more. Besides, I'm over it anyway. A lot of things happened this week actually, well, to start things off, we had a sort of "exchange student" from Hong Kong. Actually, there were like 15 of them. I found new friends! And they're from Hong Kong! Which is sooo.... cooooool. Her name is Candice Wan. I'm talking about the girl from Hong Kong that was assigned to our class and thank You LORD! my classmates were soo... nice to her. I was glad they weren't cold to her and actually treated her as if she really lived here. She's really nice and sweet. She told me she plays tennis and plays the piano.
So yeah, the Hong Kong people were really nice and for the first time in High School history! I'm not sure about this though. We got to see the inside of Bahay ng Alumni! The dorm thingy next to the speech room! So cool. The bad thing was it was so hot inside and from what I heard from Candice, Esther and Helen there were TONS of cockroaches. Eeeeww... :)) AND another first! I think. We had the chance to eat a free lunch! OH YEAH. :)) hahahahahaha. Eating lunch with them was so fun! So there was me and Candice, Ate Ia and Helen, Mikee and Esther. The conversation was floowing. Yeah, there were moments of silence but we'll start talking afterwards anyway. Wednesday was their last day in Manila, they had to go back to Hong Kong. Aww...
And we have 3 long tests this week. OH the torture! I PRAY I'll get through all of it eventually. Please LORD! :D SO i'll end it here. I still have to study. Grr... :D :))

| For once this month. I have blogged. That's good, right? So i'm just gonna post the lyrics of "AMERICAN DREAM" by Switchfoot. Good song. Good beat. Good artists. lovethemall.
When success is equated with excess
The ambition for excess wrecks us
As top of the mind becomes the bottom line
When success is equated with excess
If your time ain't been nothing but money
I start to feel really bad for you, honey
Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running
If your time ain't been nothing but money
I want out of this machine
It doesn't feel like freedom
(chorus)
This ain't my American dream
I want to live and die for bigger things
I'm tired of fighting for just me
This ain't my American dream
When success is equated with excess
When you're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus
As the heart and soul breath in the company goals
Where success is equated with excess
I want out of this machine
It doesn't feel like freedom
(chorus)
'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring
And talk has always been the cheapest thing
Is it true would you do what I want you to
If I show up with the right amount of bling?
Like a puppet on a monetary string
Maybe we've been caught singing
Red, white, blue, and green
But that ain't my America,
That ain't my American dream
(chorus)
SWITCHFOOT!!

| This would be the first time in a very very looong time that I well, blogged again. Hahaha. I guess I just wasn't in the mood to blog. AND because I have started this thing. Which is I-will-not-use-the-computer-as-often-as-I-normally-do-because-its-emitting-too-much-carbon. And I want to save the Earth from total destruction caused by our #1 (well, it should be our number one) problem which is GLOBAL WARMING. Hahahaha. :D And yeah. I'm doing practically nothing today. Well, I did, earlier. Haha. But enough of that. So yeah. It sucks cause I can't put songs in my iPod anymore. Since its obviously, FULL. And I haven't decided on which songs I shall have to erase. Cause my songs are like over a thousand already. And the number is increasing actually. If I didn't start this I-will-not-use-the-computer crap then the number would increase rapidly. Right now I'm actually taking it slow and steady. Yeah. So anyway. I seriously want the Lynsay Sands books I keep on collecting. SO FAR, I only have 2. Which sucks because I'm done with both and my system is really craving for more. But I only want the Argeneau Series. Other than that, there is nothing else I am craving for. I don't know.. I really just love it. As in soo freakin' much. And I've been listening to Josh Groban and Michael Buble lately. I just don't know why. I just have the urge to do so. I'm attracted to their voice I guess. :D

| It's summer and it seems that all of us are bored. But the thing is, I think we're all enjoying summer at the same time too. I mean, didn't you notice there's like barely 2 months before school starts once again? And we shall all suffer at the torture cell that they called "school" (just to make it sound less scary and more appealing). Right? I guess we're just too busy living our lives as best as we can. AND because we're making the best of summer since school shall deprive us from the happiness summer obviously brings us and replace it with endless, sleepless nights and long afternoons and evenings trying to figure out our homework. There are days when you feel like you want to live like a pig (Buhay Baboy as Karen puts it). Then there are days when you want to move as in, exercise just to prevent yourself from gaining 20 pounds or so. There are also days when you just want to hang out with your friends. And the days when you're busy being annoyed at home because you were supposed to go out with friends but then you're parents suddenly decided to not allow you. THESE are the kinds of days we are experiencing at the moment. Oh. And did I mention the heat? It's blazing hot! Ah, the days when you just want to sit down and absorb the cold air the aircon gives you. Ha-ha. I swear, every morning, when I take I bath the water's not cold, its actually warm. And take note, we don't have a heater. Gawd, the heat's killing me. Ha-ha And guitar lessons already started. Like, since Monday. Well, its not everyday. Only Mondays and Thursdays. Uhm... From 5.30 to 6 o'clock. I don't really mind since my teachers really nice. And I'm really learning. Though I need practice cause my fingers are shaking. I'm usually tense during meetings and I can't seem to relax. Ha-ha. Guess its pressure. I'll manage though. I mean, at home, I can do the exercises without difficulty but when I get there, I find it hard to concentrate. Haha. Oh well... I'll get it eventually. Just have to relax..... Lately I've been having the urge to draw. Even if I'm not really good and I tend to get the proportion of stuff wrong. I mean, I know how to draw and surprisingly, I can. I actually can copy stuff like if you give me a picture of a cartoon character, if I concentrate hard enough. I can copy it. Though, maybe not as accurate as the real thing, but generally, it looks the same. But the urge to draw?!?!? That's so new to me! But I'll continue drawing since I really like it lately. Haha. :D I watched "A Walk to Remember" yesterday. I have watched that movie 20+ times already. I can actually recite the lines already. The only thing I haven't done is do my own version of the movie itself! But I really like "A Walk to Remember". It's like, my favorite movie of all time. Ha-ha. And I absolutely loooove Shane West. I swear, he's HOT. Ha-ha. So I guess I'll end it here. | | |
