On June 4, Paulinians from SPCPq will walk the halls with their checkered skirts and neckties once more. Life is unfair, or should I say, the sisters are. Haha. Anyway, we're going to start school a week earlier than everyone else, so of course my anticipation-slash-anxiety has been building up for days now.

A part of me still DOES NOT want to go back to school. All the days of sleeping, eating, watching TV, surfing the Net all throughout the day.. soon to be gone. Instead it'll be replaced by late-night study marathons and reviewing for exams. Waaah. O_o Somehow I don't want to go back to that lifestyle just yet.

However, there is a geek part in me you probably all know, and (un)fortunately it occupies majority of my personality. HAHA. As usual, I'm eagerly anticipating the school year with much enthusiasm. After our school supplies shopping at MOA last Monday, I can't help but just stare at my new notebooks and ballpens (G-Tec of course! Nagmura na!!) I cannot wait to label them, write on them and use them. The other day, I wore my bag and just modeled in front of the mirror. Excited much? I can't wait to go back to school mode and rule the school as a senior. A fourth year student. Wheee.

What would this year be like? Hmm. I wonder. Right now I'm just very eager to make the best out of it. This is the make-it-or-break-it year. Aside from the fact that I have to do good in school, I also have to do well in my college entrance exams. I can't just loll around and waste my time. I have to do something, I really have to work hard this time. It's easier said than done, but who says I'm not going to do it? The anxiety is overwhelming, and the people are pressuring me like CRAZY (emphasis on CRAZY, as in SUPER PRESSURING) but I'm just going to do what I can do to make everyone -- including me -- happy.



Later.
=)

It has been a whirlwind week for me, because I had a lot of going on in my life. No, not problems, just lots of.. meetings, events and activities. Busy much? Haha. I apologize for the lack of updates. However, I come back with a new layout. =) Starring of course, my idol, Barbie. I got the idea when we went to Glorietta and I saw with my own two eyes the Barbie Loves MAC Line. It was just love at first sight! I've read about it a few months back, but I didn't expect I'd be seeing it since back then it was released just in the States. But now it's here, and in all its pink glory, it was before me. I wasn't able to buy though, since I spent my money that day on Coldplay. But still.. the joy of just seeing it. Waah =) Anyway, I suddenly had the nostalgic feeling about Barbie, and poof. There goes my creativity. Haha. So here it is. My new layout. It's best viewed in IE though (sorry to the Firefox people.. including me, haha) but hey, it's not such an eyesore in other browsers.

Anywaaaaay. How am I? After that apparently much-loved post about Gossip Girl, I couldn't believe how many people love GG just as much as I do! I'm done reading Book 11 and it's just so unbelievably.. shocking. As always, Cecily Von Ziegesar left me in awe. Kudos to her. Now I can't wait for the show AND the next book, which is the prequel. The prequel, tentatively titled "It Had To Be You" will bring us back to their sophomore year and will unveil the beginning of the Blair-Nate-Serena love triangle. Ooh, so exciting! Sadly though, that would be the last book in the series starring our favorite trio (and their whole batch actually) since the next book (the 13th) will star a new set of Upper East Siders.. the Carlyle Triplets. That's what's written at the back of Book 11. So a new era will begin. I don't know if their story will be as steamy, but oh well. If it's Cecily Von Ziegesar, you can expect some really juicy scandals. =)

Yesterday my dad and I had a little adventure. A father-daughter bonding. Haha. My mom was out of town for their office outing, so my dad fetched me from our review. We rode the cab to the LRT station in PGH. Upon reaching Doroteo Jose, we transferred to the Line 2 of the LRT, Recto Station. And we rode the train until Santolan, the end of the line! Haha. Along the way, I was like a new girl being toured in the city since he kept on pointing the schools, malls and churches we saw. It was so fun! He also pointed out the roads and where they led, so now I'm a little more, err, aware of the city. Haha. Upon reaching Santolan, we immediately caught the train going back. The guard stopped us, but my dad lamely came up with the reason that we just missed our stop because we were lost. =P So we went back to Cubao and just hung out at Gateway! As you all know, I have a passion for reading, and surprise surprise so does everyone else in the family, including my dad. So we stopped by at Fully Booked and indulged ourselves in book haven. Then we ate at Taco Bell and took a look around the mall. I so want to watch Fantastic Four at the Globe Premium Cinema there.. you know, with the comfy chairs and unlimited popcorn?! Since it was getting dark and it started raining, my mom called us (who wasback already) and told us to go home already. So we rode the MRT until Taft and just took a cab come. Whew! It was quite a road trip if you ask me! It was fun bonding with Papa because he always knew everything about anything so when I ask him he always knows the answers. Like what route I'd be taking if I go to UP, or where my Kuyas ride to school, and all the what nots. Our mom got a little mad at us, but it was worth it. Hehe. =)

Later, I'll be going to our Covenant Orientation. Can't wait! =P

Ohh, and tomorrow, bonding naman with Mommy because we'll be going to 168 -- again! =) Much love to all of you! I'll give credit to the commentors next post na lang. Pero super thanks ha! MWAAH! =)

The first time I laid my eyes on my copy, I knew I was going to be hooked. Just by looking at the cover, I knew this was the start of a new addiction. It was like a drug, you can't get enough of it. At the end of every book, it leaves you feeling satisfied yet hungry all the same. If there's one word that could describe this series, it's addicting. Indeed, all you'll want is more.

It's Gossip Girl. And you know how much I love this.

I've always believed that I was Blair. I really do. Ever since I read the first book, I knew I was a Blair. Her thoughts, actions, and words would always be similar to mine. Okay, so maybe hers is a little exaggerated but still. I knew if I would be put in worse circumstances, I might turn out to be exactly like her. And her and Nate? Ooooh, priceless. You just know they're meant to be together. All throughout the series, they've dated lots of other people to move on, but deep down they know nothing can replace what they have. It just sucks that they only realize it when they're about to lose the other one.

I know my life is nothing like the life they lead. I don't have an obnoxious stepfather, I didn't go to boarding school, I don't smoke pot, I'm not a bald artist, I'm not a trying-hard social climber, I'm not a depressed poet.. I'm perfectly normal compared to them. But something about their complexities makes me feel like I am one of them. In a twisted, unexplainable way, I am like them. I'm a teenager with raging hormones and an unbelievable desire for adventure. I love this series to death. So imagine my surprise, shock, disbelief and anticipation when I found out that..

And it's going to air this fall on -- of all networks -- The CW!! This is so great! My two favorite things in the world under one roof. Waaah! I've just seen some clips and production stills.. and whoa! I can't wait any longer! I sooo love the girl they cast for Blair! <3>

I finally have my copy of the 11th Gossip Girl book!
And I can't wait to know what's gonna happen next!!
=)

I believe that out of all the relationships you're ever going to have in your life, the one you have with your mom is certainly the most difficult, fragile and complicated. It's true. It's like it's written in the Book of Life that nobody can compare to the complexity of the mother-daughter bond.

And yet I also believe that it's the most fulfilling, fun and craziest of them all..

especially if you have one hot mom like I do! =)

Reunion ng Antookies, with Nica! Hehe =)

Heabens with Kuya BENE! Waaah!! Mga ngiti namin oh! ♥

Hopefools!

with my Daddy Dward and Mommy Shayne =)
O diba, happy family kami.

I've been surfing around The CW website and found out that OTH Episode 16 of Season 4 just finished airing. As in, now. Viewers all over the US keep posting comments about how great it was, and how it left them on the edge of their seats. Now I can't wait any longer. I know patience is a virtue, but it isn't when it's One Tree Hill we're talking about. Haha.

What saddens me though is that there are only five more episodes remaining and it bye-bye to One Tree Hill for a little while again. I mean, they made us wait for 70 days, I think, for a new episode, and now we're going to wait again, this time for a new season. But I know OTH is always worth the wait. I'm sure it won't disappoint.

I want to show you guys some production stills I downloaded yesterday from my favorite Naley site, True Love. Just click them to get a bigger view.

The OTH cast for their Senior Prom.
So adorable!!

How can anyone NOT fall in-love with them?!
Naley, always and forever!!

Have you ever felt so weak and feeling like you can never stand up again? Have you ever closed your eyes felt this overwhelming emotion that just made you cry so hard? Have you ever uttered words your mind cannot understand but your heart can? Have you ever felt so lowly, so humble, so human.. that someone stronger and wiser came into you and satisfied your needs? Have you ever been this vulnerable yet strong at the same time?

Last night, I have.
And it was the GREATEST feeling in the world.

Oh dear God we ask for your favor
Come and sweep through this place
Oh we desire You

I just want to be with You be where You are
Dwell in your presence oh God
Oh I want to walk with You

And I will climb this mountain
And I'll step of the shore
And I have chosen to follow
And be by Your side forever more

Tell me what You want me to do Lord God
Tell me what You want for my life
Its Yours Oh God it's Yours
Do your will, have Your way
Be Lord God in this place
Oh I want Your will to be done



Master, I am Your servant.
Thank You for giving me Your gift.
