and i'm still alive.

April 8, 2006 | 7 COMMENT(S)

I'm staying at my lola's for Holy Week.
I'm at the local mall blogging.
I brought my iPod with me..and it's filled with new songs! Oh yeah.
I bought white eyeliner and some eye gloss. Haha. Bebot.
My tita bought me a new book.
Nica burned me episodes 11 - 17!! I'm too lazy to download in our PC and since she already downloaded every episode, I just asked her to burn it all so that I'd have something to watch here. (Thanks a LOOOOT, Nix! :p)
I found out that Paramita's lead singer was a Paulinian from St. Paul Manila. Coolness! =)
I saw the pics of Chad's new girlfriend (so much uglier than Sophia Bush!!), Hilarie Burton's husband (yep, they tied the knot since Season 2) and Bethany Joy Galeotti's hubby (lead singer of the band Enation). And I've got one word to describe all of them: ick.
My grade in Bio increased by TWO points! Woohoo. And my fourth quarter grades are so much better than third quarter's. I'm proud of myself. Haha.
April is about to end. That means it's almost May already..then it's June. Ahh! No!
I'm really loving this show Coupling. It's like the British version of Friends. It's aired every Sunday night at Star World.
We have Jack TV and Star World at my lola's house! Hello, hello, That 70's Show and Scrubs! =)
I can't wait for Gossip Girl.
I'm enjoying my new flipflops. *ehem, ehem*
Nathan Scott is getting hotter and hotter every episode. Ahh! I love you, Nathan Scott! More than you'll ever know.

Aww. I love it. =)

And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by"

Bombastarr.com

Bombastarr is my personal blog and my little corner in the Internet since 2005. Yes, I started writing here when I was 13 years old (aka when I was very angsty, hormonal, and always gushing at the littlest things) -- ergo, you'd have to forgive me if you come across an old post that reeks of immaturity and slightly unpolished grammar. I did a lot of growing up here, and from the looks of it, there's still a lot of growing up to do, so I don't think I'll be leaving this place any time soon.

The domain, Bombastarr.com, was purchased on June 2014 and launched on July 2014, on the blog's ninth year (and fifth month, to be exact).

It's crazy to think that this blog is now thirteen years old, because (1) that seems like an eternity in internet years, and (2) that means if my blog were a kid, it's a teenager! That's insane.

Here's to more tales, explosive and otherwise.

So, why Bombastarr?

If you've been living under a rock and think I'm a threat to world peace or an object of covetousness, sorry to disappoint you, folks: it's just a fancy pseudonym.

As in most things, it started in high school. It began as a joke between me and a couple of friends during our freshman year. We were practicing for a field demonstration dance which involved the use of shawls, and being the crazy-always-trying-to-be-funny person that I was (or I always attempted to be) I started doing poses with the garment. Someone started taking my picture using my phone, and one shot looked like I was posing for those B-list movies (or should it be R-list, as in R-rated?) of the vegetable-nomenclature variety. #IKYWIM. Hence, the word, "Bombastarr." Yes, very cheeky, I know, but for a 13-year-old, it was quirky enough to figure as a username. That was 2005, right around the time I trying to decide on a URL for a new blog. It's been a lot of years since, and what started as a joke became something I've eventually embraced as an identity.

Despite the many other chances I've gotten to permanently move (to Multiply, Livejournal, Tumblr, Wordpress; to a bigger platform where I can earn or use the blog as a venue for commerce), I've come to realize that Bombastarr is something I can never truly leave behind. It is a place I've grown to appreciate and love because it is a place I can call my own. It's a venue for my rants, my views, my writing. It is home, and it is who I am.

Bombastarr is a glimpse of my life: the thoughts, ideas, and stories that shape it into what it is, and what it will still become. This journal has been with me for all my crazy, often embarrassing adventures, but I'm sure there will be more anecdotes and feelings and people to write about. Which is something I'm really looking forward to. After all, you know what they say about the greatest stories - sometimes, there's still a lot that's left unwritten.
