..I hung out at Town with Toni instead! I mean, Pailin. :D We have this love affair with Thailand ("THAILAND ROCKS! THAILAND ROCKS!") My friend from high school, EJ, came too.
Highlights:
Toni's journey from Starbucks.. to Seattle's Best.. and finally, to Coffee Bean. :))))
ordering at Coffee Bean:
cashier: "What's your name, please?" Toni: "Uhmm.. Pailin." cashier: *bewildered expression O_O* me: "Ehmm, spell it out, Pailin! Your name's so hard to spell naman kasi eh. :D"
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! So here are the stuff I got for Christmas. :) _____________________________________________________________________________________
From my best friend Cid, I got a wristlet bag thing (I dunno what it's called, sorry :P), but basically it's a little pouch that has a wrist tie.. thingy. Haha.
From another good friend Toni (a.k.a. Pailin, hehe :D) I got a pair of red dangling earrings and a matching red bangle/bracelet. I super love it. I used it today. :)
From my older sister Ate Imee - a big handbag. It's shiny with chunky strips of yellow green, rust orange, white, and black.ü
From my little nephew Matthew (with help from my Ate, his mom), an earring organizer.For my dangling earrings. Thanks, dear. :-*
From my other family members (although I do know that it's my DAD who bought them :D), I got the following. :D :
a black Billabong hoodie. (thang God for outlet/surplus stores, haha.). Super snuggly and warm. ILOVEIT. :)
a pair of dangling earrings and a silver bangle/cuff. I've been scarce on accessories so it was nice to receive these. :)
and 3 books. What books were these? Well..
1. TWILIGHT (Stephenie Meyer) Okay, so I was a little surprised I got this. But, okay, it's a gift. :) I actually read this already, with thanks to Cheska for lending it to me. Still haven't returned it because I haven't had another chance to see her again. Ngrr. Oh well. :D
2. I BECAME A CHRISTIAN AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY T-SHIRT (Vince Antonucci) I think I need this. A whole lot. Especially since I've been so preoccupied with school and other things that sometimes I forget about the Lord, which is who Christmas is really all about. If you notice the "tag" on the cover, it says "Replacing Souvenir Religion with Authentic Spiritual Passion". :) (Yes, it's a BOOK.)
3. ELDEST (Christopher Paolini) This is the second book in the Inheritance Trilogy. I have the first one, which is Eragon (though I can't find it, wtf?? T_T). Now I have book 2. I have yet to own the kinda newly-released book 3, entitled Brisingr. I love how the covers are of dragons. Ooooohhhhlala. :D
AND THE GIFT THAT I LOVE LOVE LOVED RECEIVING THE MOST WAS..
That's right!
I got a..
NOKIA 7210 SUPERNOVA!! :D
But it isn't colored like the ones in the above picture. It's actually a newly released color, Graphite. To put it in the simplest way possible it's the color of.. pencil lead. :D
Yes, I do see the lanterns. Yes, I do see the glittering lights. Yes, I do see the carolers (if not beggars) on the streets. Yes, I do realize that I have gifts under the tree. Yes, I do realize that it's the 23rd of December already.
But somehow.. Something's missing. I don't really feel the Christmas spirit anymore. The year's been great, really. But somehow.. It feels.. Christmas feels.. Well.. Kinda empty.
It's either I'm too old, or nothing special's happening. Oh heck no, I'm not too old! I'M NOT TOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD. Gaah. I dunno, really..
Even my best friend says so. We've felt Christmas in the past few years, but somehow this year's different. Does college really do this to you? It takes out the magic from Christmas? I hope not.
First of all, we were late for church today. End of story. :D
After that we went to our village's office for the administration Christmas party. (My dad's head of the board of directors so naturally the whole family comes along, haha XD) There was sooooo much food. But I'm on a "diet" so I didn't get much rice. Piled up on the ulam, though. HAHA. :D Pata tim, lumpia, kaldereta, and LECHON. Ohmigahd the lechon was terrific! Lechon is roasted pig, btw. It was cooked with lemongrass inside so the meat is juicy and delicious, even without sauce. :)
My dad even let me drink some light beer. Heehee. :"> And I took a sip of my older sister's vodka Sprite. :D _____________________________________________________________________________________
Surveyed the gifts under the Christmas tree. Felt around. AHAHA. Am pretty sure that one of my gifts is a book. Am pretty sure that one of my gifts is a new phone. :D Pucha, inalog-alog ko pa yung box. I even compared my dad's cellphone box (where the phone comes in) and felt the gift's edges. AHAHA. :D Cellphone binalot. (accdg. to Marj. haha) HAHA. I'm spoiling my gifts. XD
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! It's almost Christmas. I can't wait to open my gifts, haha! :D *Kinda selfish, I know. Oh well.*
I'm generally happy since it's Christmas break and school starts 5th January.. And I get to see my cousins and relatives in the Jalandoni-Teves side of my family because we hold a sort of reunion every year.
NOTE TO SELF: Try not to eat too much. HAHAHA. :)))))))))))
Sad thing is, I probably won't see Luigi until next year! :""""( We were talking last night and there's a chance that he'll be going to the States for Christmas, maybe even for New Year.. And I am seriously going to miss him! :""( But I asked for pasalubong. Ahihihi. :"> He said he'll bring chocolate, since he knows I love them. I told him we have to share so I won't look like a pig, haha! :P
I don't have much to say, really. All I'm doing now while typing is eating leftover cake (from my nephew's birthday party) and listening to songs via MediaMonkey. Hehe. And of course, talking to Z over MSN. :)
If you know what the words on the picture on the left are, then you'd know that they're lines from Lindsay Lohan's song Bossy.
If you haven't heard it yet, then go listen to it. :D I have a feeling Samantha Ronson had something to do with LiLo's sudden change of genre. Heehee. :D
It's really danceable, which is good. I like danceable. ü
Guess who I was thinking of while making this. HAHAHA. No bonus points, dears. :P
Anyway, I was bored and I happened to be listening to the song and browsing through some pictures from yesterday.
Enjoy.
Oh, and don't forget to comment, dear reader. I love getting comments.ü ♥
Last Sunday, I heard J. Holiday's Bed playing on the radio. But something was different. There was a girl singing, too.
I looked it up on Limewire, and found it was Nina Sky. :) DOWNLOAD. Okay, it's done. :D
LOVE IT.ü I miss Luigi. :)
The song isn't exactly, well.. Romantic. But it's nice, really. ü
To end, I shall copy paste some of Nina Sky's parts.
[Nina Sky:] Boy tell me what you want and I'll give you what you like, yeah Uh huh, alright, yes, my body's yours tonight Anything that you need, you can have it from me Cause baby I'm here to please, so put your love into me I know you like when I tease like that (like that) like that, especially when I'm at Don't stop, ooh I like what you're doing so please don't move Never met a man that turns me on like you do, Oh oh oh
I talked to his cousin since his (Luigi's) mom was looking. I told him that Luigi never seems to have time for me, and that I feel like I'm being played. Joseph (the cousin) told me that if I'm serious with Luigi (even though we're not exactly together), I should hold on, no matter what. Thank you, Joseph. I needed that.
Eventually I got to talk to Luigi again.
Me: Sineryoso mo ba ako?
Him: OO. Ilang tanong mo na yan ah!
Pero seryoso ka talaga sakin
Oo nga..
I know we're taking things one step at a time. We may seem together but we're not. At least, NOT YET. :)
Gawd, I dunno what to blog about.. Well. Imma try anyway.
What am I doing now? Talking to Z (love you ;D) on MSN, checking my Facebook and Multiply, listening to music on MediaMonkey, and doing this blog. In other words, not studying when I should be. HAHAHA. :D
I may be a crammer and a bit of a slacker, but I know my capabilities. I took an IQ test last year, and I have an IQ of 126, which is actually superior. I confess I'm an underachiever. I'm intelligent but I'm not exactly pushing it to its potential.
Anyway.
Downloaded 2 of Z's remixes. I am a huge fan of his Beam Me Up (Dangerous Remix).ü And now I love his Love Lockdown remix, too! ;)
I'm all blank now. Oh well.
Now Playing: Qwote- Shawty It's Your Booty (haha memories in Aldrin's ride with Gen XD)
BioLab - Took 3 consecutive exams/tests. Lec long test #2, Lab practical exam, and then Lab long test#1. I had a really hard time with the Lab practical exam because my slide specimen was soooooo small. It was a speck of Pinus insularis, or, pine tree. It took me such a long time to focus on it. When I let Ms. Avi check, she cut me some slack because it was the microscope at fault. O_O Thanks, Ms. :D
I then went home for a bit, since the Psych Christmas party was still at 5pm. Checked my accounts, talked to Zach over MSN. The usual, really. :) I left the house around 2:30pm or so, so I could catch up with Luigi because his last class ended 3:30.
When I got off the trike, I saw him going to his car. I hurriedly paid my fare and caught up with him. He was actually in a hurry to go somewhere again. So I went into his car and kept quiet. Awkward silence. I looked at him but he just gazing outside. I slipped a Ferrerro Rocher chocolate in his hand, and he ate it. After a while he finally gave in, and we went to our usual place. And did the usual things. Talk, get out of the car and smoke, get back in, talk, kiss, that stuff. But something else happened. No, not THAT kind of happening, bitches. XD
I'd rather not divulge, really. I've only told it to Zach. And Zach isn't even from the Philippines. HAHA. :D
5pm - Went to room 205. Psych Christmas party. 'Nuff said. :)
around 8pm- Went to 420 (resto-bar-hangout near school) with Gen and Angel. I was the only one drinking, haha. Split the bill over french fries and calamares. Yummmmmmmmmm. :) Got home a little past 9pm.
9:30am - Arrived at school. Saw my P.E. classmates. Attempted to study for written prelim.
10am - We took the test at the 2nd flr. of the Tropical Gym. After we finished, I went back to school.
I saw my friend Karl who was waiting for our friend Kym. Thesis bookbinding. Haha. THEY'RE FINALLY (ALMOST) DONE! Wheeeeeeeeee. :) Now I can go to the Vatican and ask to canonize Kym. (our little joke haha XD)
After awhile, around 12pm, I met up with Ate Trinna. We went to Citysearch to print out our report handout and pictures for our Biology report. Lately I've been drowning myself with report works and all that. Ate Trinna says that's what happens when I'm in love. O_O
EnviSci - Nope, I don't have EnviSci. However, Sir Sagun allows me to sit in, just like Sir Brian (Dayuta) allows me to sit in his PolGov class. Heehee. That's because they're my profs in another subject; EarthSci and PhilHis, respectively. :) I spent my time cutting out the pictures. Luigi was sitting in front of me, and soon I got a text message from my friend (who was sitting beside him) that said I should talk to him, and I replied that Luigi should be the one starting the conversation.
In short, Luigi and I didn't talk. We were SMS-ing the whole time, haha! After a bit he transferred to a farther seat, but I could see him a lot better. When he was sitting in front of me there was a computer monitor blocking my view. So it was actually a good thing that he moved a bit further! :)
I went downstairs to buy some gum. I've been quite hooked on gum these past few days, for some reason. Oh well. I bought some at the store behind school. When I got back to the room, I gave some to Pat (Ms. SISC herself, haha! XD), and then I sent Luigi an SMS saying that I bought gum. :D We were just talking through SMS.
Me: I bought gum. Hehe.
Him: penge.haha
hmmm. juicy fruit or icool?
icool nlng. hehe
Then he looked up at me, and Ate Trinna noticed that he wanted gum from me. HAHA. XD I stuck my tongue out at him. "No." :))))))))))))))))) And eventually I gave in. :) I gave him gum, and soon 2 of his friends (who were also my friends, wink wink ;D) asked gum from me as well. Mmmmm. Yum yum gum gum! :D
Throughout the report of the people in front, we were still SMS-ing each other.
Him: cn i have one last kiss? hahaha im just joking.
Me: hahaha. why just one? you can have all the bisous you want from me, babe.ü :-**
(NOTE: He actually said on Monday that we should stop kissing each other on the lips because we weren't actually even together. Well, look at him now. Asking for it. I couldn't resist, really. :P)
Well.. There. Haha. I went downstairs to get some medicine for my cramps, my crappy crappy cramps. Ngrr. T_T I called him up, and he was at the parking lot, about to leave.
I told him to wait because I was on my way there. One last kiss, eh? I had a feeling it wouldn't just be one. ;) So I got into his car, and then silent awkwardness. We hadn't been together all week, privately, just the two of us, until that time. I asked him if it was really just one kiss that he wanted. He compromised, saying that it would be a long kiss.
So we did. I think it was around 2 minutes? :D
And then he took off his glasses, put it down near the stick shift, and looked at me. I knew that "one kiss" would just be a bunch of bullshit, he wanted more. Just as I thought. Chalk up one for the female race! :) And to my kissing technique and prowess. Oh yes. :))))) Laugh if you must, but we ended up kissing more than just once. Make that around 3 or 4 times. All long kisses. :-* Majority of which were initiated by Luigi himself. AT LAST. XD
A few times I'd feel his hand on my lap, but that's as far as he went. (I'm no whore, bitch. Haha. XD) But I liked it, he was loosening up to me again after all the awkwardness of the past days.
Eventually I had to go, I nearly forgot we were reporting for Bio today on ecological relationships. XD I knew he didn't want me to go yet, but I had to. Oh well.
Cramps suck. No, not leg cramps. Menstrual cramps. Crappy, crappy, cramps. Bleh bleh bleh. Meeh meeh meeh. Gaah gaah gaah.
KILL ME NOW. Only kidding.
This morning I took a mefenamic acid tablet. Nothing happened, it still hurt. T_T Took 1 mefenamic acid tablet and 1 Advil, which is ibuprofen. Felt like an addict poppin' pills. LOL I'm not, ok? I just had to make the pain go awaaaaay.
Drink of Propel. Took mefenamic acid tablet. Drink of Propel again. Took ibuprofen tablet. Waited a bit. Listened to PhilHis reports. And then..
An IM conversation over Yahoo Messenger. Cheska and I. Mine are in blue Enjoy. :P _____________________________________________________________________________________

DISCLAIMER: Sorry if my post today is quite, well.. Meeeh. I'm feeling scatterbrained today. :D
7:30am - Saw Luigi at the store. Awkward moments. But we did hold hands a bit and hug. Hehe. :">
BioLab - Ms. Avi gives a quiz. Then after that, announcements on the 2nd BioLec long test and the BioLab long test on Friday. And then she talks about the Christmas party. Everyone gets restless and start making noise. We were only less than 20 in the whole Physics lab and we were making a lot of noise, haha! :P Lots of talking and noise, I don't remember all of what happened, haha! But she DID give us a field activity to do, but that was kind of pushed aside after the Christmas party came up. Heehee. :D As usual, Trinna, Gen and I got our paper and when we were dismissed, we were with Tita Rory's group. Go Xylem (our group haha) and Mitochondria (their group haha) groups! Woohoooooooooooo! XD (haha)
during field work - We decided to split up the work! Cooperation, beybeh! XD For the field activity, we were supposed to find the abiotic and biotic components of different locations in school. And since we were cooperating (haha.), we finished pretty quick.
HIGHLIGHT: Lawrence's new haircut. Pair it with his hot pink lanyard hung on his shoulder and his gay impressions ("Mga sister!") and it makes work a lot lighter. =))))))))))))))))))))
EarthSci - EEEEEH. It was pretty boring so I don't really have to say anything about this.
The following is an MSN conversation between me and my friend (his IMs are in blue).
Enjoy.ü

I don't really have much to blog about today. Just the usual Sunday things. Church, lunch at ATC, then go home. Shmooze over the TV and go online. Blah blah blah.
He finally said it. Over the phone, at least. No, it's not quite "I love you." So here it is.
He told me he misses me.ü
Actually I made him say it because I've never heard him say that he did! Whenever I'd ask if he missed/misses me, he'd just say yeah or something like that. But I made him say it. A full-blown "I miss you." And he did! :)
Me? I'm just a girl who loves to love and be loved. Lives for the moment. Loves chocolate. Lots and lots of it. :)
I don't go out that much but I make sure I enjoy myself when I do. :)
