Not in the mood...

As my title can tell you I'm not in the mood to blog today. This serves as a reminder for me to blog about the BEST LAAG EVER tomorrow. If I don't then maybe I'll blog about it on the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day.

Wow. I can't believe I managed to blog something THIS LONG. ;)

Cat fights anyone?

It's about 10 PM right now and I just heard the most hilarious (not to mention loud) thing in my life. Two CATS were fighting over God knows what and it drove me NUTS. Who knew cats were THAT loud?

Anyway, I was supposed to watch Toy Story 3 again with a bunch of my classmates BUT my parents wouldn't let me because I've seen it already. Bummer. :|

Practicing Canon in D is fun. Getting the hang of it. I've been playing it for so long I've already memorized two out of the three pages. >< The last part's the hardest. Can't believe people manage to play it. :/

Just watched Karate Kid today. Jaden Smith is awesome man. His Chinese was funny, though. But man! Can he fight or what? Awesome movie. ^^

Canon in D? Suuuure.

I have to learn how to play Canon in D like this?!



Crap. Anyway, on to brighter side of things. Lady Gaga tripped in London! Serves her right for wearing these boots.



She scares me. A LOT. Especially her music videos and her insane sense of fashion.

The blog looks kind of funny now. Sorry for that. I'm awaiting the banner Bekka's making for me. :D

Hunchback of Banana Dame

Okay, so I was eating lunch in my old house with my family when I laid my eyes on the most hideous banana on earth. Seriously, it reminded me of a hunchback. I knew then and there right when I saw it, it had to be mine. And so, after taking a picture of it and calling it the "Hunchback of Banana Dame," I ate it.

Here's my hand holding my dear banana:



Here it is without my hand:



Lols. How I described my banana encounter sounded like a romance novel. Yeap. That's it.

TOY STORY! =)

I'm going to watch Toy Story 3 today! I'm so, very, super-duper excited! Can't wait to see Spanish Buzz. XD

For someone who trains in ATC, Saturdays mean two hours of practice and sparring. And yes, I am engaged in martial arts. Fear my brown-belted taekwondo glory. Anyway, for sparring I was paired with this tougher-than-me guy. LUCKILY, it was just to study sparring (meaning non-violent, harmless, just to warm us all up sparring). After that, Sir told us to sit down and wait for the pairs to be called to spar. Since I was the only female brown belt, I didn't have a partner ergo, NO SPARRING! :D

Honestly, I only like taekwondo because of the forms, for example, Taegeuk 7 posted below:



Awesome form, right? Maybe you won't appreciate it as much as I would but you got to admit, it's pretty awesome.

Back to the topic at hand. The Toy Story Series (can you call it a series?) is like totally Pixar. Complete with heart-warming plot, awesome graphics, and enough bittersweet sadness to make a grown man cry. Have I mentioned I'm excited to see this movie?

Gotta go. Taekwondo made me all sweaty and I've got to clean up before venturing out into public. A girl's got to look her best. ;)

Fridays!

Today is a Friday! That means CAT! CAT (or citizen advancement training. You hear that Sir? I listened. :D)was so much fun today especially the reaction training. Too bad it was raining, though. We could've practiced with the rifles AND played volleyball after.

Oh! Guess who got a 30.5/35 in their physics exam today? That's right! I DID! I feel so accomplished.

My Filipino quiz was kind of a failure, though. Next time I should remember that speech = talumpati, instructions = panuto, and college = dalubhasaan. Oh well, better luck next time?

Pastor Jun shared with us a very important message today. The Bible tells us to guard our hearts (and by hearts he doesn't mean our physical hearts) against evil. Our hearts determine what we SAY, SEE, and SEEK. Thanks for your message, Pastor. :)

Facebook is getting boring. Weird. I figured it's about time. Games can't keep people entertained THAT long. And no one goes online anymore anyway because of school.

The whole class watched a Chinese Christian video during Chinese time. Problems faced were ginormous but God was there for them. Like what Romans 8:31b said, "If God be for us who then can be against us?" Thank you Lord for bringing little miracles into my life each day.


Alrighty, that's enough blogging for today. Newspapers don't read themselves you know? 'Til next time.

Complete Layout Revamp. =D

As you guys noticed, my layout is now fully decked out and I'm so proud of it. Plus, everything matches my blog's title which was inspired by the Maximum Ride Series. No, I am not emo.

Today, I WAS going to fan-girl over a certain half-human, half-bird guy from the Maximum Ride series but just wasn't in the mood to do anything like that now. Plus I realized that fan-girling must only be done when one is happy or in the state of nirvana otherwise it's going to sound like a report.

Drama's building up. Hope it's worth it. :/

Tomorrow is the FIRST chapel hour of the year and I am very, very happy to say that the speaker is Pastor Jun Lumagbas. His points are very clear and his message is easy to organize. Sing loud, fourth years! :D

Still have a Filipino quiz to study for. Until next time.

School has such drama

Hey guys. I WAS going to tell you something good. But I'd be persecuted, flogged and stoned to death if I do. Just kidding. But I really can't unleash this info to the rest of the world so there.

So far, during these three weeks of school my favorite subjects are:
Economics - 'cause T. Francisco bounces ideas back and forth
English - 'cause Madam L.'s the best
Music - Who wouldn't like music? Also, T. Beltran is the best.
Math - 'cause I like math

I hope/pray that the quiz tomorrow is going to be easy as pie. If only I had a fairy godparent. sigh In my dreams. :(

The 39 Clues. Awesome series. The books are a tad bit expensive, though. Still, the plot is so amazing I was able to finish 5 books in a day. Check it out here.

Enough blogging. I have schoolwork to do. Until next time (which is most likely tomorrow).

FIRST POST

Hi, guys. It's the third week of school and I feel like ripping my hair out already. Seriously, is fourth year really this FRUSTRATING? And yes, for those who don't know me, I'm vying for honors.

A few close friends and I decided to create a blog to help us keep in touch with each other when we graduate and go our separate ways. sigh I'm going to miss them all. Anyway. Younger siblings are fighting as I type. I can't believe how loud they are.

I still have schoolwork to do so I'm going to have to cut this blog short.
