Homesick
I'm now writing this out of fvcking boredom.
It's too quiet here and it's just past the hour of 9.
My roommates are now asleep and I'm too shy to talk to anyone else right now.
The hardest part of now is taking a bath and changing my clothes >_<
And another con is that it's to hot but I have to wear t shirt because it's what most of them wear.
Theres a wifi but it's password protected. dafuq.
I don't know if I'll just sleep now and I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'LL DO TOMORROW. ughhhhhh. I am a good blogger now because there's no internet. harhar

You Are Good Enough
This for is for me and lot of teens out there who feels they aren't good enough and someone is always better than them.
You know, there's this constant idea that always pops in my head and makes me feel depressed.
The idea to be someone else. The idea that they are so much better than me. The idea that makes me want to be like them.
Whenever I see a pretty girl, I sort of like
"She's so pretty. I wish I'm that pretty too". Whenever I heard someone sing so good, I feel
"Why is my voice like this? ughhh". Whenever I read a good story I feel insecure about the way I write.
I guess it's wrong to feel the urge to be someone else. Sometimes we think we're not good enough. Maybe we're just seeing things the wrong way. We think we're not good enough because we try to please someone who doesn't really care. We try so hard to be good enough we forget that we're enough. That we actually matter to someone. Someone finsds you pretty, someone finds you sexy, cute, smart. We are good enough.
I'm a frustrated writer *_* I write, and actually sometimes I try to have a different style in writing, but it just doesn't feel right. So I tried sticking to my style, and some people actually liked and loved my story *_* I can't even believe it =))))))) It made me feel so good about myself. I can't believe somebody actually liked it and appreciated me, or the way I write.
And it made realize some things.
I guess some teens lose their identity, or lose theirselves because they try to be someone else. All of us have insecurities, I guess even the most interesting and the most beautiful girl. I guess insecurities are what makes us not good enough, perfection is just a concept that we all try to define and somehow try to achieve.
When we're insecure about who we are, we tend to stop trying to be better and get lost in our sadness. We tend to just sit there and be miserable because we're not good enough, because we'll never gonna get things done, because we're never gonna be happy, because someone's never gonna love us. We let our insecurities eat us.
When we're insecure about what we do, we tend to stop doing it even if it makes us happy.
Someone sees you the way you are. You are good enough. Kanya kanyang taste lang naman ang tao, Maybe you should try looking at the other direction, maybe those people will see your worth and make you feel you're good enough. It's a waste of time wishing and trying to be someone else just because we think they are so much better. They have imperfections and insecurities too. Stick with who you are, it's a lot easier and people will like you and love you that way. And when you start neglecting your insecurities and start noticing those people, You'll feel great.
I'm saying this because I want to stop feeling bad about myself. And I felt great when someone told me they loved my story. :)
And when people suddenly tells me "I'm cute" I find it hard to believe then, but I guess I should believe them. Maybe I'm cute to some and not to the others. But I have to make myself believe "I'm cute" to make it more believable, and to make myself feel good.
You are beautiful. You are good enough. You just have to believe it yourself :)

Dear Zai,
You're off to College! Yay :) give yourself a shoulder pat for going after what you want and taking risks.
I hope you're realizing that this is real, this is the big thing. When you start to pack your things off to college, you're on your own. This is where you begin to shape your future and become who you've always wanted to be. I know you have big dreams, now is your chance to go after them.
Please! Wag ka ng tamarin =))) Please don't lose motivation to do the things you do. Don't lose motivation to do things you know you're good at. Just don't give up when you start feeling like a lazy-ass person you are. Please just go on, be consistent. Please! and even if you do feel down, have something to believe in. Have something to make you keep going.
I know it's going to be tough. College is fun they say, but I know you'll be expecting a lot of bumps ahead too. And when you do, re-read this letter. Keep this is your wallet or your inbox or wherever. Okay?
Here, I've made a list of things you should always keep in mind. I know you to be easily distracted and you always change your mind.
1. Don't rush things - You can't be best at something at first try. Alam ko na gusto mo ganun, gusto mo magaling ka kaagad sa isang bagay. Nawawalan ka ng pagasa kapag nakikita mong mahirap sa simula. Don't rush okay? Don't stop trying at your first error. Lunukin mo muna lahat ng insecurities mo at walang kwenta mong pride =)) Iwasan mong panghinaan ng loob. Ganun talaga di ba? It's always hard in the beginning. Lahat naman, pero kapag okay na magagawa mo na rin yan ng tama.
2. Embrace failures - Alam ko na hindi ka sanay magkamali. Hindi ka sanay na hindi ikaw ang tama. College would be different. Alam mo naman yun, maraming tao na ang nagsabi sayo. It would be full of different people and diversed opinions. Don't lose yourself among the crowd. You're going to be wrong a lot of times. You'll fail! It would hurt, like the first time you failed your Physics exam. Try to accept it. Move on and improve yourself. You know that Failure is just a part of life, ACCEPT IT AND LIVE WITH IT. Please, I hope you're tough enough to get up when you fail. Don't disappoint me. Don't disappoint yourself
3. Prioritize - habang sinusulat mo to, alam kong malinaw sa'yo ang mga priorities mo. Ang mga gusto mong maabot. Ang gusto mong maging kinabukasan. Pero naninigurado lang ako, there's gonna be a lot of things that may and will change you. Okay lang. Pero wag mong kakalimutan ang goal mo. Baka kasi mawala sa isip mo to. Ikaw pa naman, madaling ma temp ;D Basta ang priority mo is GOD, FAMILY, SCHOOL. Bahala ka na sa mga susunod. Okay?
4. STUDY HARD - Gets mo na yan =))) Kahit maraming tukso sa kolehiyo, sige okay lang na patulan mo (pero wag lahat. Hahaha). Basta wag mo kakalimutan na pagkatapos ng gala at happy trips, may pagaaral kang dapat gawin. Okay? Please! sana wag matigas ang ulo. Sundin mo to! =)) Sorry kung sinasabi ko sa'yo to, alam ko kasi na nalulula ka pa rin sa dami ng magbabago sa college. Tandaan mo na gagraduate ka with flying colors! Gaano man kahirap makarating dun. Love your course, keep in mind what you learn. At wasan mo nang isumpa kung gaano kahirap ang pagaaral =))) Love UP.
5. Be consistent - HOY ZAI! wag kang ningas kugon ah =))) kung ano nasimulan mo, sipagan mo ng imaintain. Alam ko na alam mo na sa lahat ng bagay, sa Maintenance ka mahina. Lagi kasing ang nangyayare sayo, nawawalan ka ng gana. nawawalan ka ng motivation ibigay ang best mo sa lahat ng ginagawa mo. Please, this time don't lose it. If you do, do something to have it again.
6. Enjoy your Freedom - Malaya ka na! Haha. Alam ko na independent ka na rin naman sa sarili mo. Pero mas bongga ngayon, aalis ka na sa bahay niyo, magkakaron ka ng bagong environment, ikaw na ang hahawak ng sarili mong pera. (YAY!) Alam ko na matagal mo ng gusto gumawa ng napakaraming bagay, magsimula ng mga bagay ng hindi nagdadalawang isip dahil kailangan mo pa ng approval ng magulang mo. Enjoy your freedom because finally, you can do what you want and you already have the chance and resources to do them. Simulan mo ng ilista ang mga bagay na pagiipunan mo =))) Take advantage of this freedom for you to improve yourself, not destroy. Stay responsible.
7. Know your limitations - That's what your mom always tells you. Sundin mo siya, kahit minsan nakakainis siya. Nanay mo yun at kailangan mo siyang sundin. You're lucky to have a mom who lets you do things because she trusts you. I know you're never ever done something to defy her. And I hope you keep a clean slate till you graduate. Okay lang na magenjoy ka at gawin lahat ng gusto mo. Make mistakes! Make a lot of them. Pero siguraduhin mo na hindi nun maapektuhan ang pagaaral mo o ang kinabukasan mo. Siguraduhin mo rin na kaya mong panindigan ang kasalanan mo. Basta, know your limitations.
8. Stay grounded - Don't ever ever ever ever lose yourself. You're gonna meet a lot of people. Hear a lot opinions. Experience a lot of things. These may change you, but always remember who you are. Keep yourself in tact. WAG LALAKI ANG ULO MO! PLEASE! =)))) or WAG KANG MAGPAPADALA SA MALALAKI ANG ULO! =))) Just please, I like who you are now, if something's gonna change you in college, make sure it's for the better you.
9. Love Yourself - Bago ka magkandarapa sa mga gwapong lalake na makikilala at makikita mo sa college. Mahal mo muna sarili mo ha =)) Feeling ko kasi you don't love yourself enough. Kulang ka pa sa tiwala sa sarili mo. Sana sa college maniwala ka sa mga kakayahan mo at iwasan mong mainsecure sa mga tao at bagay sa paligid mo :)
10. Keep all these in mind :)
P.S.
Don't forget home - wag kang masyadong matuwa sa kalayaan mo, umuwi ka pa rin regularly ha! =))))))))
Love,
Your Sixteen Year Old Self .Labels: 12, 31, College, May, Personal, UPLB

Mommy
I haven't blog about mother's day. So now I'm gonna blog about her. I want it to be special so I'll do it today, para nagiisa lang ako. haha. I can blog anyday about my mom because every day should be mother's day. We can't really keep them forever so might as well keep it special while we still can :)
A mother is our guardian angel, I think god gave them us to them to take care of and love and that someday, we will know that it's the other way around. They are like trust funds of God. We don't know how much they're worth until it's the right time and when we need them most. They're our builders, lovers, best friend in this world. They are our soulmates and the only thing in this world that would stick with us no matter what the situation is. I know that not all moms stay with their kids, but all moms love their kids no matter what. Kahit yung mga nagpaabort, nag pabaya, nagpaampon at kung ano ano pa. They love their kids because it's theirs, it's a part of who they are and they love them no matter how they show it.
I am thankful for my mom. She isn't the perfect mom nor the best mom in the whole galaxy, but she is the best mom for me. My mom and I have misunderstandings. But I guess moms have that special phone number in our system that whatever we do and whatever we feel or think, they have a way to know things. They are moms for a reason. I am lucky I have her, I am lucky I can still kiss, hug and talk to her unlike some kids.
There are times that I sort of hate my mom. There are a lot of times I do fail to understand her. Sometimes I just don't understand why so I feel bad about her. But whenever it passes, I'll realize that whatever she does and whoever she is and whatever desicion she makes, she is my mom and I love her. That's the only thing that matters most.
My mom is on the top of the reasons why my heart stops my brain from wishing I had a different life, live in a different place and become a different person. I admit there were instances in the past that I have thought "Sana si ganito na lang ang mommy ko" There were times the younger me wanted that because my mom always scold me, disappoints me even and cannot give everything I wish for. But now that I understand things, situations and point of views more, I feel ashamed of ever thinking that way. I now realize what a mom goes through just for her kid. I now see how much my mom have gone through to stay with us, to make us happy by doing all she can. Now I know how much my mom gave up for us, how much a mom compromises to give her child everything. Now I oity those kids who take their mom for granted. I pity that part of me who took my mom for granted. I regret the times I've made her feel bad. I feel ashamed of the times I blamed my mom for the things she isn't to blame for. Now I know my mom did everything she can to give me what I wanted.
When I look at the bigger picture, my rants and reasons are no match for what my mom did for me. I regret the moments I've hurt her or made her feel bad. The times I have disappointed her and the times that I talked back.
I wanted to write her a lotter but I think it's too cheesy. Hehe. I am never a thoughtful person. I'm not an expert of showing my feelings, even to my mom. I seldom tell her I love her, but I do. So much. Sometimes I tell her jokingly that I would take care of her, give her the things she wants. I'm gonna do that and I hope, wish to God that let me have that chance. Let me have the chance to take care of my mom in her old age. Give her everything she deserves for molding me and loving me. This mothers day I wish for more time. Plenty of time with my mom.
Last mother's day we served her breakfast and bed. It was actually my brother's idea and I just helped :) The morning that we served it, I felt like crying. Hehe :) We greeted her good morning and a Happy Mother's day and that was it. :) My brother is really sweet and I guess I often forget the little things that would make my mom happy. I'm not sweet because I think it's uneccessary and silly. I find it a form of weakness and I don't know. I'm just this way. I have so many things in my mind I fail to do and say because I'm afraid. I'm afraid to get hurt when I show people how I feel.

I love you so much mommy. Kahit ganito ako love na love kita, kahit suplada mataray at masungit ako. I will do my best to make you happy. To give you the best things in life. I'm sorry if I always fail to show you how much I do love you. I hope you feel it even if I'm like this. If I find it hard to tell a lot people how much they mean to me. I'm sorry if I don't always show and tell you how much I love you. But please keep in mind that I do and will always love you. Just trust me okay? I promise you wouldn't end up in a home for the aged. I promise I'll take care of you. Happy Mother's Day. I know you wouldn't read this. You will when I go yo UP :) I love You :*

Birthday Bash
Last Friday night was zooooo ahmazing. Hahahaha. May 12 was Joanne Alyssa Plata's birthday. She's my classmate and we're just a few steps away. harhar.

The Birthdaaay Girl <3 I woke up around two pm and hurriedly took a bath because I'm already running late. Pero pagdating ko dun wala pa mga kaklase ko :D So Jeric and I went to VJ and Rinze's house. Mejo madami na kami. Kumain na kami and kulitan. Sobrang iniiit! Hahahaha.







Nagbalat kami ng maraming mangga and sang karaoke, tapos siguro after ng mga 2 hours na kantahan, Joanne asked if we want The Bar. Syempre Oo ako saka si Jeric. Hahahahaha. Though mejo malakas kami uminom, controlled naman. Yung iba mejo weak eh. So inuman while kantahan. Nung naubos na yung isang bote, lumabas muna ako at nagpalamig. Then naisip ko, may bote nga pala kami. Sabi ko "Laro tayoooo"
Nilibas ko yung bote. "O pwesto na yung sasali. Ang di nakaupo sa sahig hindi kasali" Yung ibang boys KJ talaga. So kami na lang =)))
Nung mga unang rounds, puro Truth lang. Mga tanong about crush and love and kung virgin pa ba. Hahahaha. Then nung lahat na kami naka "truth" Sabi ni Jha ata, o ako. ewan. Basta may nagsabi "Dare na lahat" So Dare =))) Grabe mga dare. Hahahaha. Yung kay Caster, Sexy Dance kay Ann na hindi naman niya nagawa. Tapos may dare kay Ann na magkiss sila ni Cas. Smack lang naman. 10 seconds. Grabeeee. Hahahahaha. May dare din Kay Jenny na kiss sa cheeks si Vj, dare kay Joanne na kiss si Jeric sa forehead at ganun din Si Mimi kay Bin. Tapos Dare na Sexy Dance kay Jeric. Grabe tawa namin. Then may dare sa`kin na mag Dougie. Hell =)))) Ginawa ko naman pero di ko maimagine ano ichura ko. Hahahaha. Saka dare pa na magsexy dance kay Rinze :D Grabe. Hahahaha. It was the wildest night of my life yet. Hahaha.
Sobrang saya. Frieeeends :) Buti nga kahit mejo "iba" Kami ni Crystel, parte ng buhay namin ang mga nakakalokang ito :D

My Remaining Bum Days
"Haay, ano ba yan. College na ako"
Sabi ko sa kapatid ko. Nagmomovie marathon kasi kami ngayong madaling araw araw at bigla ko lang nasabi. Naisip ko na "So many things will change"
Haaaay. Four remaining weeks of summer. A month of sleepless nights and boredom. Ang daming magbabago pagtuntong ko ng college. Iba na, ibang mundo na.
Natatakot ako na naeexcite. Pumapasok sa isip ko ang mga bagay na mamimiss ko. Yung paguwi araw araw at ang unang dialogue. "Si mommy?" Ang walang humpay na mood swings ng kapatid ko. Hay.
This is just so random :D

Pre College Orientation
Kanina habang nagoorientation, syempre pumasok na naman sa isip ko ang "Oh my god, I am so gonna blog this" tapos ngayon, tinatamad na ako isipin ang mga iniisip ko kanina. Haha.
Ibubullets ko na lang ang mga nangyare ;D
- Arrived there 30 minutes earlier so we had to wait. Namamangha lang talaga ako sa mga tao. Hahaha. So different. May mukang artista, may mukang okay lang. At may mukang... pwede na ;D
- Pagpasok na pagpasok sa hall. Ang chorva nung speaker. Feeling close c agad? Hahaha. Mejo awkward ang feeling ko kasi total loner talaga. Wala akong kakilala eh. So I greeted my seatmate. Loner din siya, taga Bicol. Grabe ang layo. 13 hours ang byahe, land and water ;D
- Nagsimula na. Ang pangunahing activity is to know 10 people. Their course and kung taga saan sila. Grabe. Mejo nakakahiya pa saka awkward. Hehe. tapos grabe! Ang lalayo nila, as in from different parts of Luzon. May galing Bataan, Bicol, Zambales, Baguio, Isabela, Ilocus Sur pati nga Cordillera eh. Grabe. Nahiya naman ako kasi from Cabuyao lang tapos magdodorm na ko ;D
- Get to know each other chuchu. Ang sayaaaaa. After nun nagtawag si Kuya Speaker ng tatayo at ituturo lahat ng nakilala niya :D
- Pagkatapos ng getting to know, naglaro ng "Bahay, Baboy, Bagyo" Parang open the Basket. Pag bahay, magpapalit ng basket, pag baboy yung tao sa loob ang papalitan and pag bagyo naman magrurumble lang ang bahay at baboy :D
- They grouped us into seven. Tapos parang nagkaroon ng open forum each group. Nag introduce yourself tapos yung dalawang face nag intoduce samin ng Do's and Don'ts inside the campus and the classroom. Tapos nagkwento din sila kung gaano kasarap at kahirap sa UPLB. Total Freedom daw talaga. Kahit ano gusto mong trip walang pakealaman. May teacher daw na pumapasok ng nakabikini top, may students daw na pumapasok ng nakainom. Keribels lang. Pero depende din daw sa Prof ang rules. Wag daw umabsent ng first day para malaman na lahat :D Mahirap umabsent, pahirapan sa pagkuha ng excuse slip. Hay, kala ko pwede na =))
- Bumalik na ulit kami sa function Hall. Naglaro kami ng ibang version ng bato bato picks per group. Hahaha, ang tawag naman "Archer, Rabit, Wall" Talo ng Archer ang Rabit, talo ng Rabit ang wall at talo naman ng wall ang rabbit :D
- After ng game, balik speaker na ulit pero ibang speaker na. Ngayon naman diniscuss niya ang Advantages ng UPLB at ng Student Affairs. Mga eklavu sa mga ORG, bawal mag Org ang Freshie :D Tapos yung mga University Fees. Mga programs. Mga dorms. Saka yung Student Council and Student Online System. Amazing, ang gagaling nila mag speak. Mga aktibista talaga. Haha
- After ng Speak, nagpakilala silang mga volunteers isa isa. Ang kukulit lang. Lahat sila may "say" yung talagang Ma-ere ang dating. Typical UP. May nagtanong, "Bakit the Best ang UP?" ang sagot nung gay "Dahil nandito tayo. Nandito kayo at nandito ako" oha, pang miss gay :D Ang dami niya sinabi, halos lahat sila kahit iba iba ang course binibida ang kanya kanyang course. Mahalin mo daw ang course mo dahil syempre, yun ang the best. Grabe lang talaga. nakakapressure na nakakaamaze ang confidence nila. Mahihiya ka mahiya =))
Kaya siguro mejo maeere ang people and confident and sinasabi ng iba na mayabang, dahil may K naman talaga sila. Haha, sabi nga nung bakla. Hindi pagyayabang ang pagsasabi ng totoo :"3. Talagang dun pa lang ipapafeel nila sayo na you should feel you are the best because you truly are. Parang bawal ang insecure. Dapat sabihin mo na sa sarili mo na "Talagang magaling ako" Grabe. Nakaka pressure, pero at the same time naeexcite ako :D

Teenage Whatabouts.
I just got home from my classmate's Birthday. Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYANG! Christian Fred Erispe.
Actually pagod na ako at masakit ang puson ko. Haha, pero gusto ko mag-blog. Kasi baka tamaan na naman ako ng katam kapag may pasok na at araw araw akong pagod.
So si Crystel ang kasabay ko pumunta, tapos dun kami sa 7-11 naghintay ng mga kaklase dahil hindi namin alam ang exact address ni Kyang. Habang naghihintay pa sa iba, pinagusapan namin College life. Ano course ni ganito at kung may schedule na ba siya. Saka kung saan magaaral.
Nung kumpleto na kami, umalis na kami sa 7-11. Tapos habang naghihintay kami ng Jeep, may kumalabit sa`kin. Si Micah Quinay, classmate ko nung elem. Nagulat ako kasi akala ko sa ibang place na sila nakatira, dito pa rin pala sa`min. So usap saglit, tinanong ko kung san siya nag HS kasi ang tagal ko na siyang di nakita. Tapos biglang sabi niya *ang cute mo*. Mejo naspeechless ako. Haha, nagthank you ako tapos sakay na ng jeep. :)) Natuwa lang ako. Haha. GV eh.
Pagbaba namin ng jeep naglakad na kami papunta sa bahay nila Kyang, tapos biglang may tumalon sa harap namin ni Joanne =))) siya kasi kasilong ko sa payong. Hahahaha. *tumalon kasi may railing, so parang talon bakod ginawa nung mama* Laughtrip, poker face na lang kami kasi masyadong papansin si Kuya, tapos sinusundan pa kami. Parang ewan lang. Mejo nagfe-freak out pa si Jo pag nakikita niya, haha. tawa pa din ako, di naman siya makakaano eh. lol. Tawa pa rin ako ng tawa habang nasa daan kasi talagang hindi ako makagetover. Ang init init pa. =)))
Sobrang saya ng birthday kasi nagkasama sama kami ulit. Kwentuhan at kulitan. Iba talaga ang HS friends eh. Nagusap rin kami ng mga takot at excitements namin about college. Mejo nakakalungkot nga kasi wala akong kasama sa school ko :\
Nagusap din kami tungkol sa lovelife. Kasi yung si Jam may bagong boyfriend, edi tinanong namin kung pogi, ayos lang daw. tanong ko mas pogi sa ex mo? Oo daw, ang panget naman daw nun eh. Hahaha. Sabi ko, ganon talaga kapag ex na. Panget =)) Pero kapag boyfriend mo pa di mo masasabi yan. Pag tinanong ka "Gwapo?" "Mahal ko yun!" ang sagot. Hahaha. Saka Sex life, hahahaha. Pero hindi pa kami handang lumevel up sa mga ganung bagay, biruang usapan lang. Mga in case in case at green jokes. Kasi si Cas na boyfriend ni Ann sa manila magaaral, eh dun nga maraming tukso. Haaay. marami kaming kinatatakutan sa college. Saka yung mga ganitong bagay napaguusapan na namin kasi nga, normal na din talaga. Mas maiging napaguusapan kesa hindi alam ang gagawin :D
Pagkatapos ng PBB, wala na kami magawa kanila Kyang, kaya gumala kami sa subdv. Pumunta kami sa playground tapos nakita namin yung mga naglalaro. Eh gusto ko magswing. Hahaha, ayun, naisipan namin pumunta kay Baja na taga Gran Seville. Ang ganda kasi ng playground dun.
Mahabang lakaran, grabe nga eh. nakakapagod pero masaya kasi naguusap at nagbibiruan habang naglalakad.
Nung nakapagswing na ako, ang saraaaaaap. Weeeeeeeeeeee! Parang bata lang. sa tagal ko ba namang hindi nakapagswing. Hindi ko na nga maalala yung last time. Tapos ayun picture picture. Sa susunod ko na lang ipopost mga pics dito. hehehe
Tapos nun sumunod si Jam at yung new boyf niya. Ayun, maya maya umuwi na din kami ;D
Ang saya ng araw na to, nasabihan ako ng cute at di ko talaga malilimutan yung papansin na ewan. Hahaha

Weird
Goooodmoooorning :) I haven't slept yet. Okay, ikukwento ko kung bakit. haha.
Last night a friend called. Nagusap kami. Bla bla bla. He knows about ex and he has a girlfriend. And then he tells me about other girls he like. Kwento kwento. Masarap siyang kausap because he keeps the conversation alive. Unlike other guys or friends.
And noon, nung time na kinwento niya sa`kin na yun nga, na dalawang sabay ang girlfriend niya. syempre tawa lang ako, kasi choice niya yun saka di naman siya nanghihingi ng advice, kinukwento niya lang dahil naguguluhan siya. Then napunta sa usapang crush. Sino crush ko, then nung sa kanya. Sabi niya "Maniniwala ka ba pag sinabi kong crush kita?" tawa tawa lang ako. Hahahaha. Kasi, basta masarap siyang kausap.
So ayun, kwentuhan kami basta kung ano ano lang. Tungkol dito, tungkol dun. Tapos minsan minsan, isisingit niya na crush niya ako. Tapos nagtatanong pa na kung manliligaw daw ba siya, mag pagasa ba? Kinikilig ako =))) Sinabi ko na nga sa sarili ko na ayaw ko muna, kasi sakit sa ulo. So sinabi ko rin sa kanya yun. Saka hello, may girlfriend siya. Dalawa pa, so inunumber three niya ako? =))))
Ayun, wala lang. Nakakainlove siya. I mean, ang gaan ng pakiramdam ko sa kanya. Tapos parang sasadyain pa niya na mahulog ako. Pero ayaw ko, kung mahuhulog man ako, problema ko na yun. May girlfriend siya, masarap lang mafall sa kanya pero hindi siya ideal boyfriend.
Ang galing niya kasi magsalita. He makes you feel special. Sinabi niya pa na sayang pinakawalan daw ako ni ano =))) Tapos, bakit ngayon lang daw niya ako kinilala. Haaaaay. Hahaha. Ewan. Hindi pwede. Hindi siya pwedeng maging boyfriend. Masaya na ako na crush niya ako. Mahaba na hair ko dun =))

Getting There
UP has been my dream school since God knows when and I was so damn lucky to be given the chance.
Nung pumasa ako, everything was still surreal and at first I didn't want to believe it's really true. Everything just slowly got into me when I recieved my admission letter and the attached forms. GRABEEEE! SOBRANG SAYA TO THE POINT NA NABABALIW NA KO SA KAKATAWA AT KAKATALON. HAHAHAHAHA. Saka iba pa yung feeling ko kasi nakapending case pa ako bago na resolve. So thankful.
Then today was my enrollment.
Mahirap kasi ang daming pila, dumaan pa sa medical na pagkatagal tagal para sa requirements. Ang daming requirements na nakakaasar pa dahil may hindi ako alam at nabubwisit ang nanay ko. Ang init. Nakakapagod. Pero nung nakuha ko na yung schedule at class cards, heaaaaaaven :)
Everytime I go to UPLB, am mesmerized. Pero siguro mawawala din to sa pagdaan ng panahon. I am really happy I am now an official "Iska" XD

A Comeback Post :)
Yes, I know. I've made a promise to myself that I'd be active in this blog for 2011, but it is very obvious that I have failed once again. :)))
Oh well, the reason why I haven't updated this blog for months is because blogger has been a beeatch to me, as well as our internet connection :D Isang buwan dn kaming nawalan for the month of April. And because it's been too long since I've updated, I've got tons of kweeeentos to share. But those kwentos would be on different entries. Masyado kasi ako magulo magkwento, mahirap igets. =)))
So the errors I've encountered with blogger started when I can't log in and I can't post an entry. My last post was about my `feeling` and negative thoughts about school and my emotionalness
lol which are obviously dissolved now :DD So ayun, yung nakaprepare na entry ko about our annual field trip and my 3rd grading grades went to the recycle bin :DD haha! but I'll try to make a new one! I'LL TRY! :)
For a starter, I would like to make kwento from the most recent to the oldest. hrhr :DD And I would kwento what happened yesterday.
I didn't have review classes yesterday so Dad decided to watch Pirates of the Caribbean; On stranger Tides and it was aaaaawesome. Jack Sparrow was still hilarious as ever. :D Then we ate dinner at RaiRai Ken and the night was almost perfect, until! of course there's always something that ruins a good night. haay.

When we were on the way home, may nabangga kami! gosh it was nervewrecking. Alam mo yung feeling na nafeel mo kung ano yung feeling ng mga nakaranas ng car accident. GRABE! Nung biglang preno parang lumabas yung puso ko sa kaba. Luckily, the pressure wasn't that strong because my uncle, who was driving, isn't driving that fast. Edi nung may tumawid na nakabike nag
*beeeeeeeeeeeep* ng matagal at malakas yung tito ko, pero ayun! bumangga pa rin Fortunately hindi malakas yung impact dahil nakapreno kaagad so hindi tumalsik yung tao, pero natumba. Grabe! grabe yung kaba namin, So my dad went out of the car to check on the man. Syempre kami kinakabahan na rin kung ano nangyare dun sa mama, bumaba din kami. Then Me, my bro and his gf saw that the man was drunk.! Grabe! And he didn't asked for anything, Bilhan lang daw siya ng gamot for his gasgas. But we didn't have any medecines with us so my Dad has to buy pa, ayun nagpaiwan kami dun ng kapatid ko and my mom.
While waiting, the man kept talking, kept on reasoning na wala naman daw siyang hinihinging kahit ano, gamot lang. He kep on telling us na `hindi na nga ho ako nagrereklamo` bla bla bla bla.
So the bitch of me, nainis. Db nakakainis yung pangangatwiran niya? It's as if he's implying that we should be thankful he has no plans of suing us. And I'm like, WTF. LASING KA TATAWID KA? SO WE SHOULD BE THANKFUL NA BUHAY KA PA. In that exact moment, lahat ng awa na naramdaman ko nung mabangga siya naglaho. grabe.
And that's not all, he kept on blabbing and blabbing! Eto yung mga sinabi niya.
"SOP po talaga yun, khit sinong driver kapag may nabangga responsibilidad niya yun. Patay man o buhay"
"Hindi ko po talaga nakita na may paparating na sasakyan kaya tumawid ako"
And I'm like, THE FUCK, talagang wala kang makikita dahil lasing ka. And who in his right mind would cross the road drunk? grabe! then isisisi mo dun sa sasakyan na tinamaan ka? eh malayo pa lang bumusina na. Grabe, yung kapatid ko nanlilisik na yung mata dahil gusto nang sapakin. He also kept on insisting na bingannga siya! grabe! Pasalamat siya hindi truck yung nakabangga sa kanya. I also said na `Kuya Hi-Way po ito, kelan po ba nawalan ng sasakyang ang kalsada? Para niyo na ring sinabing wag tumawid ang may paa`
Tapos ayun, napikon ata saken dahil ang pilosopo ko, I was so pissed with him I literally tell jokes to myself para lang tuloy pa rin ang smile ko. Katwiran pa niya na kasalanan yung ng nagdadrive tuwing may nababangga dahil may preno yung sasakyan. Edi para na rin niyang sinabing `pwedeng tumawid ang lasing dahil kahit anong mangyare may preno ang sasakyan`. Grabe. Imagine the mentalism of most Filipinos? SOBRANG BALUKTOT.
I also asked him `kuya may problema ka ba?` and he said "marami, may problema dn kayo kung namatay ako", nung time na yun sabi ng isip ko `putangina pala to ee. gusto lang mamatay mamemerwisyo pa`
That moment naisip ko na kaya hindi umaasenso ang Pilipinas. Naghihilahan tayo pababa. Yung mga mahihirap iniisip nila na mahirap sila, wala na silang pagasa. Kaya ayun, iinom, magbibisyo, magiging pabigat sa pamilya, sa bayan, sa lipunan. Isisisi sa lahat ang kalagayan nila, pero hindi sa sarili nila. Kanya kanya kasi tayong hugas ng kamay ee. kanya kanyang turuan, walang handang umako ng responsibilidad. Kasi kung marerealize ng mga pilipino na hindi ang gobyerno and may sagot sa lahat, nasa kanila na mismo. Pero Hindi, NASA BABA SILA, MANGHIHILA PA. SILA ANG MALI, SILA PA ANG GALIT.
Wala. Hindi tayo aasenso.
Masyadong inabuso ang demokrasya. Oo alam nating may Human Rights tayo, May freedom of speech. But that doesn't give us the rights to use these to destroy or hurt other people. Oo karapatan ng mga nasasagasaan na panagutan sila ng nakasagasa, but that doesn't give them the right to recklessly cross the road because they knew that whatever happens wala silang pananagutan. But didn't they thought about the lives they would destroy together with theirs just because they're tired living?
Tssk. Fucked up Mentality.
Nakakalungkot lang din sa mga simpleng manggagawa tulad ng mga drivers na napapariwara ang buhay dahil sa mga taong wala nang pakealam sa magiging resulta ng mga kagaguhan nila. hay.
So I'm gonna stop here. I just wanna share what I though about these kinds of people and I wanna tell you that I'm Pro RH Bill.
Till then, Bloggers :)

Alone in a Crowded room.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm just too emotional or paranoid about things that cause me to feel this horrible. Sometimes I try so hard not to feel alone by trying to tell myself
`it's not what it seems to be` that maybe, I just misinterpret their actions.
Have you ever felt that way too? You're with a lot of people yet it seems you're alone? That you're sort of caged away? or do you think you're just the one who build up walls?
I am aware that I don't have a bestfriend - though some people tells me thay we're bestrfirends - I just don't feel
THE bestfriend with them, my bestfriend. The only bestfriend I consider is my mom, Someone who likes me because of me and not because of what I can do. I have a lot of closefriends, but there are times that they don't feel that way anymore.
It sucks to be in my situation, I'm like a log on a river, just going with the flow of everything. Everyone is my friend, but I often feel left out. I can be friends with her, with them, with anyone. But times come that they're all friends and I don't have anyone. :( I'm always an exeption to the group, I don't have permanent groupmates and partners and bla bla so when the teacher tells us to group ourselves I just wait for those who's incomplete or left out too.
I started to feel this way again with the fieldtrip thing. They were all like asking everyone
`sasama ka?` but me? They didn't even dare to ask me. Alam mo yung feeling na minsan gusto mo namang may magtanong kung okay ka? :(
One thing that sucks for being strong is that everyone thinks you'll stay strong. ALL THE TIME. It sucks to play along when the truth is, you're effin tired of being strong, and no one cares if you're breaking down already.
I'm tired being their spare tire, they'll just invite me when they feel obliged, they'll just include to fill up one's seat. I'm always a freakin chance passenger. :( It sucks.
I'll continue playing along, I wouldn't dare give them the idea that people like them, who can't even appreciate me, affects me this much. The only thing I regret is that I've let myself care for people who doesn't even give a damn if I existed or not. I'll just hope that soon enough, I'll get the chance to be with people who won't let me feel like trash.
If this feeling is just a misinterpretation of what I see, then all I can say is that they can't tell me what to feel, prior to what they show me.

Jump High, Love lots coz It's 2011.
I know my posts are already late because I'm catching up for updates in my life :)
Our New Year was awesome, though not that great, it was better than any one else's. No one lost a finger, no one was hurt and everybody happy.
The day before Dec 31 we were so not prepared and just doing the same normal things. Then on the exact day, my ever awesome mom found a way to have something on our table :D I was even surprised that we have Lechon :D Kahit ulo lang, lechon pa din yun :)


We've got the bar which I was supposed to drink with my Kuya but he decided to have beer instead so I was left with the bar. haha :))) We started around 8pm and was a bit tipsy by 10 so I stopped for a while to let the `tama` go down my system because I don't wanna welcome the year asleep :D
Yeah I was red and hyper :DDD lololol.

We didn't have that much paputok and Edrian wasn't also with us because he decided to stay in Pampanga for New Year, so yeah, It's a bit sad. We just had fun watching fireworks because Mom didn't buy any for the sake of practicality. Sayang nga naman ang pera kung pagkatapos ng paputok wala na :D

After Midnight everything was the same again. haha :)) The streets went quiet and I guess they all went inside their homes like us. Unfortunately for me, My tummy ached so much that made me too uncomfortable to sleep :D Blame the Bar and my pulutan. haha, but my mom said hangin daw siguro kasi tawa ako ng tawa. Thank God that I was able to sleep around 4am because the ache subsided, next morning I was back on finishing my projects again because classes resume on Jan 3 :D

Christmas Party
YAY, I wanna start this year right by trying to revive my blogging spirits. First stop is that I've finally changed my layout and my default pic. hoho :) I'll also change my about me sections as soon as I can.
So this post will be about our Christmas Party Celebration.
Dec 13-15: It's our Periodicals and we had a very long line-up of deadline but as usual, it seems that I'm the only one who's too stressed about it in our group. Can you imagine to have your Social Studies deadline at the exact day of your Christmas Party? FML. So those days were cram cram cram :))) I have one very effective technique in cramming.
`Sleep is all you need` coz if you study when you're sleepy, nothing goes into your head. :D So I was like
`fuck this. I'm gonna finish this project then sleep` :))) Tapos kinabukasan na ako magrereview :D Thank God I'm exempted in some subjects as incentives to our recent activities.
On the last day of exam, I was too pissed with Lorielle and Crystel who was acting all so great in decorating and planning about our Christmas Party and almost forgot that I'm the president of the class, so yeah, I gave them the privelage of carrying that responsibility. Bahala sila, wala akong pake. So I went home early because I still have nothing to wear. It was a day of dissapointments. Really, but I don't want to tell it anymote :)
Dec 16; We woke up early because my mom and I attended the Simbang Gabi. I was the first to get up - because of excitement, maybe - then my mom. At the Church I was so sleepy very sleepy that I slept almost half of the mass but of course I listened to the homily. On our way home my mom and I just walked because we still have to drop by the market and buy ingredients for carbonara which was my assigned dish for the party. When we got home I excitedly took a bath and did all the rituals and bla bla bla for the party.
I arrived at the party early and it wasn't what I was expecting, really. It screams boring all over the place :)))) then I told the one in charge, Crystel, what was the agenda for the day and she told me she hasn't made any and all of those excuses. Kesyo hindi na nga siya nakatulog ng ayos and bla bla bla, so my usual self got pissed and rant and rant at the back of my mind. I was thinking
`what the hell was that excuse? you volunteered to organize this, now you're complaining that you haven't slept yet?` So she'll just sabotage the party? ugh! I tried to pull some strings, make some plans and thankfully the videoke already arrived so we decided to start. Then at the climax of our Adrenalines, it suddenly blocked out! YEAH, and we found out that the office cut the main power because there's too many videokes and the outlets might not accomadate all of it. We were like
`what the hell? It's not the first year to bring Videokes in and how can you call this a Party without electricity? :(

we went outside and tried to proceed to our games, but again, walk out queen Crystel did it again, got pissed and just shooed off. What a bitch, you gonna take it all then spit it out? tss, so who's gonna clean that mess? ME! but that day I didn't wanna ruin my mood because our adviser was there. Haaay. Fortunately after the game they brought back the electricity so Ma'am Pam our adviser told me that we should proceed to the exchange gifts because we're already hungry. :D



I recieved a watch and a necklace that I haven't uploaded yet because I can't find my Camera's charger. ugh. :)) after Exchange gift was eating time. yum :D


After Kainan, we were talking about `what are we gonna do? should we go somewhere?` I asked Ann, the Gala among us if they're gonna go anywhere and she said she wasn't sure and that it depends who's gonna come so I said I would like to but I haven't brought money with me. We talked and discussed and planned and ended up going to Festival, It was kinda sad that only a few were able to come because some of us our parents disagreed.

The usual Barkada Gala. WAIT WAIT WAIT. TEXT TEXT TEXT. PIC PIC PIC :)) the original 11:30 plan happened to be 1:00 :)) We arrived at Festi around 1:30 and then viola, kanya kanyang gala :DD We enetered shops ans looked at those tag prices and our eyes just went $_$ because we don't have that much money to shop. hrhr.
We ended up riding the roller coaster and they were all sort of afraid and had partners and I don't so I was in front alone. hahaha :))) and I was teaasing and laughing at their faces during the ride. :D We bought books worth 10 to 20 php :)) then went home around 5:30 because we might be caught in traffic. I arrived home smiling and surprisingly my mom wasn't mad, she didn't even preach. yahoooo :)) I bought her a present too :D

Cheers for a New Year
Today is the last day of 2010 and the last day of this decade. So this is probably my last post, of course. I am deeply sorry for not posting any entry this past few weeks or even months because of some teenage bullshit that occured to me.
I think I've lost my sense of blogging. I got lazy, almost on everything, it's like my mind went to a long pause that everytime an idea comes to my mind, a part of it shuts it down and I end up being `sabaw` :)
I've been through a lot of emotional stress lately that I can't find a way to summarize, really. And I think It's the reason why I can't make a decent post with one thought. Okay, Tama na :D basta masyado akong nasabaw :D
Moving forward, I would tell you about how I spent this christmas.
I would say that this year has been the loneliest and the worst year yet to come because it's been a roller coaster ride. From school to everything I've been through a lot. I've been thinking a lot about what I want for my life, about the decisions I have made and decisions I have to think of.
Christmas this year didn't feel like christmas at all, during Christmas eve I went outside our house and felt nothing, The houses were dull and the ambience was just too lonely and very different from the previous Christmases. I reminisced a lot of memories, of how we spent our christmas the other years, of how different it was. I also thought what would it be like if my dad was here to celebrate with us.
I was almost sad and furious with our overall situation this christmas because my mom was almost broke and I can seriously feel the world crisis everyone is suffering too. Our Noche Buena was just the basics, nothing glamorious unlike our last years and basta, It's too hard to describe how dull it was, but nevertheless we were able to pull it off. My mom told me it's okay at least we're still lucky to have something to eat and to be able to celebrate it with the family. We're still lucky to have food on our table.
After Christmas my dad's package came so viola :)) party party :DD lol, we've got lots of supplies again so It wasn't that sad afterall eh :) The next day we went to Pampanga to visit our lola and my cousins too :D Nanay was still the same and we thank god that she's still here with us, still strong ang kicking :D We stayed there for two days just talking about Nanay's frustration about my Uncles Family and my elder cousin who's taking the wrong decisions in life. So all in all, our family is hanging by a thread since my lolo died :( and my cousing and I were just remiscing how good life was before, how happy we still were when lolo was still here.
ah, good times. :)
Happy New Year Everyone :) I still got a lot of pending entries and I don't want to mix it all up with one entry so see you all next year :)

Dear Blog
I know I've been too busy to be with you but I want you to know that life has been good these past days and I don't want you to feel neglected. I promise to keep you, for as long as I can because you've been there during the darkest days of my teenage life. I'll never delete you. Promise. Yes I may update you once in a while but what you have is something no one, even my friends do, and I'm gonna keep you. Maybe I'll show you publicly to my real life affiliates a second before I die.
You're one of the best things I have and I'm gonna stick with you no matter how many better sites would come.
Love,
Zaira

Birthday Bash.
This week has been so fun and memorable despite the fact that it was exam week.
Last Friday was our Quiz slash dance presentation for MAPEH and it was perfect :) we got 60 perfect point for the dance so PARTEY PARTEY :) everything was okay, no harm done with those misunderstandings and I was right just to let it pass. After the presentation I told them to come to my birthday and It was SO AWKWARD XD because I'm really not used to approach them in that sweet kind of way. Ayun, and yung iba pa sabi `invited ba ko` and I was like, I am really that bad? lol! hahaha :)) then I told them everyone is and I wasn't just able to announce it earlier so parang haka haka lang nung una.
The celebration of my birthday turned out to be so so so successful and Unexpected. At first I was so unsure if there would be a celebration because my mom's broke and I've already invited my friends so I told my mom it would be okay if it's just simple, just few of my classmates and just the basic menus.
But It was so fun because my very wonderful mom have connection and friends that she was able to pull it through! ang daming handa and almost half of it was just sponsored by politicians dahil malapit na election :)) yay!
My friends were LATE! and I was nervous at first that no one would come. aww! and when Angel, Jam, Therese, Matthew came there was this awkward atmosphere that I didn't know how to start the party! haha :) we watched Resident Evil; Afterlife then when Earvin texted that they were coming I told Angel and the others to hide =DDD then It was the icebreaker. We were laughing and sweating when they arrived. Hah! :) panira lang yung mga tsinelas kasi di namin natago ;D
I was so happy because THERESE who's always MIA on my birthday came! and then Gill, though late and Ranniell :) It's just sad because Jeff didn't make it. aww :D and I have a hunch na iniiwasan niya ako because of that birthday issue.
.jpg)
The normal plan which was a movie marathon turned out to be an ICING BASH! :))) It started when my mom popped in and told everyone they have to sing Happy Birthday! :)) and you know that awkward feeling when everyone's singing you a happy birthday! haha :D I blew the cake and wished then got a knife to cut the cake but the moment it was put down! They dug their fingers in and started wiping everybody's face with icing! :))))))))))
.jpg)
.jpg)
After that the party just got more intense. hahahaha :)) laugh trip and shouting because we switched the movie to Nightmare on Elm's street :D
When the girls started to say bye I wanted to cry but did not. I just really missed gill and the day was so awesome to end. The girld went first and the boys decided to finish the movie and oh god :))) something almost happened I just can't find any words to describe it. haha.

Sorry if this post is way too late and I have another post upcoming :D

Wishes do come true, even in the most unexpected way.
Today was unusually surprising because things happened the way I didn't pictured it to be, though it wasn't that bad, it was actually good but I'm wasn't ready for it. haha :))
My day started out gloomy and a bit dull like the weather because as I said, I wasn't expecting it. I mean, I was expecting a happy greeting and a good morning from the most special person in my life, my mom. But because of yesterday's bad news she was sort of pissed and even forgot to greet me a happy birthday, plus another person I was expecting a greet from didn't :(
But despite my gloomy morning and a very awkward first subject, when English time came, tenteneneneeen :)) Ann reminded our adviser that it's my birthday so hello embarrassment :)) I was called in from of the class and they sang Happy Birthday, then I was surprised when our adviser called a Lorielle, Crystel, Ann and tenen! Jeff to tell a message for me. :D Ayun, I wasn't expecting it, lalo na yung kay Jeff, kasi crush ko sya =))))) tapos nag co-conclude pa yung iba na kami `daw` naku~ :)) how I just wish. haha
So ayun, though it was cute and sweet, I kind of don't like it, kasi parang nabadtrip sya tapos may tendency na lalo siyang mailang :( eh hindi na nga kami kasing close noon. :( kahit gusto ko, mas magandang friends na lang, walang malisya, mas masaya. db? hay. :)))
Then another lucky news is that I'm exempted in Filipino's periodical exam ;D kasi may homework kami na magcompose ng kanta related to our topic and I was pushed during the period to sing my song kasi ng birthday ko daw :D so ayun! Reward pala is exemption. YAY :)
Overall my day was good, I just felt a little weird after lunch. Ang panget kasi ng panahon, I often don't feel well lately :D and the only bad thing is that the person I was expecting to care more doesn't and those whom I don't even expect to remember were the ones to greet me first, akalain mo si Lorielle yung unang sumalubong sa`kin kaninang umaga to hug me and say Happy Birthday? aww, I was actually expecting some of my closest friends, but they seem to forget. Nagulat pa nga sila and said, `ay oo nga pala, birthday ni Zai` >.<>
This day was good, I saw those person who really care, who deserves my trust :) Lalo na yung mga elem friends ko. I miss them, kahit ang dami dami na nagbago, when we talk, it seems that everything just happened yesterdat :)

Empty Smiles
I miss blogging, but I'm back on the state of not knowing what to blog again. hihi :))
Last week was one of the memorable weeks of my HS life so far because it was our Periodical week and also our Acquaintance Party.
Ayun, emo na naman ako :))) there's just a lot of things going on my mind right now, on what's happening on my life and I'm just sort of missing something. I badly want something I can't have. :) Oh well, siguro meron ako pero hindi ko pa napapansin :) I just miss the feeling :D
I'll kwento more further when I'm on the mood :D The Party was fun but I wasn't happy :)) I laugh, I smile, it was good but It wasn't the happy me :D

Homesick
I'm now writing this out of fvcking boredom.
It's too quiet here and it's just past the hour of 9.
My roommates are now asleep and I'm too shy to talk to anyone else right now.
The hardest part of now is taking a bath and changing my clothes >_<
And another con is that it's to hot but I have to wear t shirt because it's what most of them wear.
Theres a wifi but it's password protected. dafuq.
I don't know if I'll just sleep now and I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'LL DO TOMORROW. ughhhhhh. I am a good blogger now because there's no internet. harhar

You Are Good Enough
This for is for me and lot of teens out there who feels they aren't good enough and someone is always better than them.
You know, there's this constant idea that always pops in my head and makes me feel depressed.
The idea to be someone else. The idea that they are so much better than me. The idea that makes me want to be like them.
Whenever I see a pretty girl, I sort of like
"She's so pretty. I wish I'm that pretty too". Whenever I heard someone sing so good, I feel
"Why is my voice like this? ughhh". Whenever I read a good story I feel insecure about the way I write.
I guess it's wrong to feel the urge to be someone else. Sometimes we think we're not good enough. Maybe we're just seeing things the wrong way. We think we're not good enough because we try to please someone who doesn't really care. We try so hard to be good enough we forget that we're enough. That we actually matter to someone. Someone finsds you pretty, someone finds you sexy, cute, smart. We are good enough.
I'm a frustrated writer *_* I write, and actually sometimes I try to have a different style in writing, but it just doesn't feel right. So I tried sticking to my style, and some people actually liked and loved my story *_* I can't even believe it =))))))) It made me feel so good about myself. I can't believe somebody actually liked it and appreciated me, or the way I write.
And it made realize some things.
I guess some teens lose their identity, or lose theirselves because they try to be someone else. All of us have insecurities, I guess even the most interesting and the most beautiful girl. I guess insecurities are what makes us not good enough, perfection is just a concept that we all try to define and somehow try to achieve.
When we're insecure about who we are, we tend to stop trying to be better and get lost in our sadness. We tend to just sit there and be miserable because we're not good enough, because we'll never gonna get things done, because we're never gonna be happy, because someone's never gonna love us. We let our insecurities eat us.
When we're insecure about what we do, we tend to stop doing it even if it makes us happy.
Someone sees you the way you are. You are good enough. Kanya kanyang taste lang naman ang tao, Maybe you should try looking at the other direction, maybe those people will see your worth and make you feel you're good enough. It's a waste of time wishing and trying to be someone else just because we think they are so much better. They have imperfections and insecurities too. Stick with who you are, it's a lot easier and people will like you and love you that way. And when you start neglecting your insecurities and start noticing those people, You'll feel great.
I'm saying this because I want to stop feeling bad about myself. And I felt great when someone told me they loved my story. :)
And when people suddenly tells me "I'm cute" I find it hard to believe then, but I guess I should believe them. Maybe I'm cute to some and not to the others. But I have to make myself believe "I'm cute" to make it more believable, and to make myself feel good.
You are beautiful. You are good enough. You just have to believe it yourself :)

Dear Zai,
You're off to College! Yay :) give yourself a shoulder pat for going after what you want and taking risks.
I hope you're realizing that this is real, this is the big thing. When you start to pack your things off to college, you're on your own. This is where you begin to shape your future and become who you've always wanted to be. I know you have big dreams, now is your chance to go after them.
Please! Wag ka ng tamarin =))) Please don't lose motivation to do the things you do. Don't lose motivation to do things you know you're good at. Just don't give up when you start feeling like a lazy-ass person you are. Please just go on, be consistent. Please! and even if you do feel down, have something to believe in. Have something to make you keep going.
I know it's going to be tough. College is fun they say, but I know you'll be expecting a lot of bumps ahead too. And when you do, re-read this letter. Keep this is your wallet or your inbox or wherever. Okay?
Here, I've made a list of things you should always keep in mind. I know you to be easily distracted and you always change your mind.
1. Don't rush things - You can't be best at something at first try. Alam ko na gusto mo ganun, gusto mo magaling ka kaagad sa isang bagay. Nawawalan ka ng pagasa kapag nakikita mong mahirap sa simula. Don't rush okay? Don't stop trying at your first error. Lunukin mo muna lahat ng insecurities mo at walang kwenta mong pride =)) Iwasan mong panghinaan ng loob. Ganun talaga di ba? It's always hard in the beginning. Lahat naman, pero kapag okay na magagawa mo na rin yan ng tama.
2. Embrace failures - Alam ko na hindi ka sanay magkamali. Hindi ka sanay na hindi ikaw ang tama. College would be different. Alam mo naman yun, maraming tao na ang nagsabi sayo. It would be full of different people and diversed opinions. Don't lose yourself among the crowd. You're going to be wrong a lot of times. You'll fail! It would hurt, like the first time you failed your Physics exam. Try to accept it. Move on and improve yourself. You know that Failure is just a part of life, ACCEPT IT AND LIVE WITH IT. Please, I hope you're tough enough to get up when you fail. Don't disappoint me. Don't disappoint yourself
3. Prioritize - habang sinusulat mo to, alam kong malinaw sa'yo ang mga priorities mo. Ang mga gusto mong maabot. Ang gusto mong maging kinabukasan. Pero naninigurado lang ako, there's gonna be a lot of things that may and will change you. Okay lang. Pero wag mong kakalimutan ang goal mo. Baka kasi mawala sa isip mo to. Ikaw pa naman, madaling ma temp ;D Basta ang priority mo is GOD, FAMILY, SCHOOL. Bahala ka na sa mga susunod. Okay?
4. STUDY HARD - Gets mo na yan =))) Kahit maraming tukso sa kolehiyo, sige okay lang na patulan mo (pero wag lahat. Hahaha). Basta wag mo kakalimutan na pagkatapos ng gala at happy trips, may pagaaral kang dapat gawin. Okay? Please! sana wag matigas ang ulo. Sundin mo to! =)) Sorry kung sinasabi ko sa'yo to, alam ko kasi na nalulula ka pa rin sa dami ng magbabago sa college. Tandaan mo na gagraduate ka with flying colors! Gaano man kahirap makarating dun. Love your course, keep in mind what you learn. At wasan mo nang isumpa kung gaano kahirap ang pagaaral =))) Love UP.
5. Be consistent - HOY ZAI! wag kang ningas kugon ah =))) kung ano nasimulan mo, sipagan mo ng imaintain. Alam ko na alam mo na sa lahat ng bagay, sa Maintenance ka mahina. Lagi kasing ang nangyayare sayo, nawawalan ka ng gana. nawawalan ka ng motivation ibigay ang best mo sa lahat ng ginagawa mo. Please, this time don't lose it. If you do, do something to have it again.
6. Enjoy your Freedom - Malaya ka na! Haha. Alam ko na independent ka na rin naman sa sarili mo. Pero mas bongga ngayon, aalis ka na sa bahay niyo, magkakaron ka ng bagong environment, ikaw na ang hahawak ng sarili mong pera. (YAY!) Alam ko na matagal mo ng gusto gumawa ng napakaraming bagay, magsimula ng mga bagay ng hindi nagdadalawang isip dahil kailangan mo pa ng approval ng magulang mo. Enjoy your freedom because finally, you can do what you want and you already have the chance and resources to do them. Simulan mo ng ilista ang mga bagay na pagiipunan mo =))) Take advantage of this freedom for you to improve yourself, not destroy. Stay responsible.
7. Know your limitations - That's what your mom always tells you. Sundin mo siya, kahit minsan nakakainis siya. Nanay mo yun at kailangan mo siyang sundin. You're lucky to have a mom who lets you do things because she trusts you. I know you're never ever done something to defy her. And I hope you keep a clean slate till you graduate. Okay lang na magenjoy ka at gawin lahat ng gusto mo. Make mistakes! Make a lot of them. Pero siguraduhin mo na hindi nun maapektuhan ang pagaaral mo o ang kinabukasan mo. Siguraduhin mo rin na kaya mong panindigan ang kasalanan mo. Basta, know your limitations.
8. Stay grounded - Don't ever ever ever ever lose yourself. You're gonna meet a lot of people. Hear a lot opinions. Experience a lot of things. These may change you, but always remember who you are. Keep yourself in tact. WAG LALAKI ANG ULO MO! PLEASE! =)))) or WAG KANG MAGPAPADALA SA MALALAKI ANG ULO! =))) Just please, I like who you are now, if something's gonna change you in college, make sure it's for the better you.
9. Love Yourself - Bago ka magkandarapa sa mga gwapong lalake na makikilala at makikita mo sa college. Mahal mo muna sarili mo ha =)) Feeling ko kasi you don't love yourself enough. Kulang ka pa sa tiwala sa sarili mo. Sana sa college maniwala ka sa mga kakayahan mo at iwasan mong mainsecure sa mga tao at bagay sa paligid mo :)
10. Keep all these in mind :)
P.S.
Don't forget home - wag kang masyadong matuwa sa kalayaan mo, umuwi ka pa rin regularly ha! =))))))))
Love,
Your Sixteen Year Old Self .Labels: 12, 31, College, May, Personal, UPLB

Mommy
I haven't blog about mother's day. So now I'm gonna blog about her. I want it to be special so I'll do it today, para nagiisa lang ako. haha. I can blog anyday about my mom because every day should be mother's day. We can't really keep them forever so might as well keep it special while we still can :)
A mother is our guardian angel, I think god gave them us to them to take care of and love and that someday, we will know that it's the other way around. They are like trust funds of God. We don't know how much they're worth until it's the right time and when we need them most. They're our builders, lovers, best friend in this world. They are our soulmates and the only thing in this world that would stick with us no matter what the situation is. I know that not all moms stay with their kids, but all moms love their kids no matter what. Kahit yung mga nagpaabort, nag pabaya, nagpaampon at kung ano ano pa. They love their kids because it's theirs, it's a part of who they are and they love them no matter how they show it.
I am thankful for my mom. She isn't the perfect mom nor the best mom in the whole galaxy, but she is the best mom for me. My mom and I have misunderstandings. But I guess moms have that special phone number in our system that whatever we do and whatever we feel or think, they have a way to know things. They are moms for a reason. I am lucky I have her, I am lucky I can still kiss, hug and talk to her unlike some kids.
There are times that I sort of hate my mom. There are a lot of times I do fail to understand her. Sometimes I just don't understand why so I feel bad about her. But whenever it passes, I'll realize that whatever she does and whoever she is and whatever desicion she makes, she is my mom and I love her. That's the only thing that matters most.
My mom is on the top of the reasons why my heart stops my brain from wishing I had a different life, live in a different place and become a different person. I admit there were instances in the past that I have thought "Sana si ganito na lang ang mommy ko" There were times the younger me wanted that because my mom always scold me, disappoints me even and cannot give everything I wish for. But now that I understand things, situations and point of views more, I feel ashamed of ever thinking that way. I now realize what a mom goes through just for her kid. I now see how much my mom have gone through to stay with us, to make us happy by doing all she can. Now I know how much my mom gave up for us, how much a mom compromises to give her child everything. Now I oity those kids who take their mom for granted. I pity that part of me who took my mom for granted. I regret the times I've made her feel bad. I feel ashamed of the times I blamed my mom for the things she isn't to blame for. Now I know my mom did everything she can to give me what I wanted.
When I look at the bigger picture, my rants and reasons are no match for what my mom did for me. I regret the moments I've hurt her or made her feel bad. The times I have disappointed her and the times that I talked back.
I wanted to write her a lotter but I think it's too cheesy. Hehe. I am never a thoughtful person. I'm not an expert of showing my feelings, even to my mom. I seldom tell her I love her, but I do. So much. Sometimes I tell her jokingly that I would take care of her, give her the things she wants. I'm gonna do that and I hope, wish to God that let me have that chance. Let me have the chance to take care of my mom in her old age. Give her everything she deserves for molding me and loving me. This mothers day I wish for more time. Plenty of time with my mom.
Last mother's day we served her breakfast and bed. It was actually my brother's idea and I just helped :) The morning that we served it, I felt like crying. Hehe :) We greeted her good morning and a Happy Mother's day and that was it. :) My brother is really sweet and I guess I often forget the little things that would make my mom happy. I'm not sweet because I think it's uneccessary and silly. I find it a form of weakness and I don't know. I'm just this way. I have so many things in my mind I fail to do and say because I'm afraid. I'm afraid to get hurt when I show people how I feel.

I love you so much mommy. Kahit ganito ako love na love kita, kahit suplada mataray at masungit ako. I will do my best to make you happy. To give you the best things in life. I'm sorry if I always fail to show you how much I do love you. I hope you feel it even if I'm like this. If I find it hard to tell a lot people how much they mean to me. I'm sorry if I don't always show and tell you how much I love you. But please keep in mind that I do and will always love you. Just trust me okay? I promise you wouldn't end up in a home for the aged. I promise I'll take care of you. Happy Mother's Day. I know you wouldn't read this. You will when I go yo UP :) I love You :*

Birthday Bash
Last Friday night was zooooo ahmazing. Hahahaha. May 12 was Joanne Alyssa Plata's birthday. She's my classmate and we're just a few steps away. harhar.

The Birthdaaay Girl <3 I woke up around two pm and hurriedly took a bath because I'm already running late. Pero pagdating ko dun wala pa mga kaklase ko :D So Jeric and I went to VJ and Rinze's house. Mejo madami na kami. Kumain na kami and kulitan. Sobrang iniiit! Hahahaha.







Nagbalat kami ng maraming mangga and sang karaoke, tapos siguro after ng mga 2 hours na kantahan, Joanne asked if we want The Bar. Syempre Oo ako saka si Jeric. Hahahahaha. Though mejo malakas kami uminom, controlled naman. Yung iba mejo weak eh. So inuman while kantahan. Nung naubos na yung isang bote, lumabas muna ako at nagpalamig. Then naisip ko, may bote nga pala kami. Sabi ko "Laro tayoooo"
Nilibas ko yung bote. "O pwesto na yung sasali. Ang di nakaupo sa sahig hindi kasali" Yung ibang boys KJ talaga. So kami na lang =)))
Nung mga unang rounds, puro Truth lang. Mga tanong about crush and love and kung virgin pa ba. Hahahaha. Then nung lahat na kami naka "truth" Sabi ni Jha ata, o ako. ewan. Basta may nagsabi "Dare na lahat" So Dare =))) Grabe mga dare. Hahahaha. Yung kay Caster, Sexy Dance kay Ann na hindi naman niya nagawa. Tapos may dare kay Ann na magkiss sila ni Cas. Smack lang naman. 10 seconds. Grabeeee. Hahahahaha. May dare din Kay Jenny na kiss sa cheeks si Vj, dare kay Joanne na kiss si Jeric sa forehead at ganun din Si Mimi kay Bin. Tapos Dare na Sexy Dance kay Jeric. Grabe tawa namin. Then may dare sa`kin na mag Dougie. Hell =)))) Ginawa ko naman pero di ko maimagine ano ichura ko. Hahahaha. Saka dare pa na magsexy dance kay Rinze :D Grabe. Hahahaha. It was the wildest night of my life yet. Hahaha.
Sobrang saya. Frieeeends :) Buti nga kahit mejo "iba" Kami ni Crystel, parte ng buhay namin ang mga nakakalokang ito :D

My Remaining Bum Days
"Haay, ano ba yan. College na ako"
Sabi ko sa kapatid ko. Nagmomovie marathon kasi kami ngayong madaling araw araw at bigla ko lang nasabi. Naisip ko na "So many things will change"
Haaaay. Four remaining weeks of summer. A month of sleepless nights and boredom. Ang daming magbabago pagtuntong ko ng college. Iba na, ibang mundo na.
Natatakot ako na naeexcite. Pumapasok sa isip ko ang mga bagay na mamimiss ko. Yung paguwi araw araw at ang unang dialogue. "Si mommy?" Ang walang humpay na mood swings ng kapatid ko. Hay.
This is just so random :D

Pre College Orientation
Kanina habang nagoorientation, syempre pumasok na naman sa isip ko ang "Oh my god, I am so gonna blog this" tapos ngayon, tinatamad na ako isipin ang mga iniisip ko kanina. Haha.
Ibubullets ko na lang ang mga nangyare ;D
- Arrived there 30 minutes earlier so we had to wait. Namamangha lang talaga ako sa mga tao. Hahaha. So different. May mukang artista, may mukang okay lang. At may mukang... pwede na ;D
- Pagpasok na pagpasok sa hall. Ang chorva nung speaker. Feeling close c agad? Hahaha. Mejo awkward ang feeling ko kasi total loner talaga. Wala akong kakilala eh. So I greeted my seatmate. Loner din siya, taga Bicol. Grabe ang layo. 13 hours ang byahe, land and water ;D
- Nagsimula na. Ang pangunahing activity is to know 10 people. Their course and kung taga saan sila. Grabe. Mejo nakakahiya pa saka awkward. Hehe. tapos grabe! Ang lalayo nila, as in from different parts of Luzon. May galing Bataan, Bicol, Zambales, Baguio, Isabela, Ilocus Sur pati nga Cordillera eh. Grabe. Nahiya naman ako kasi from Cabuyao lang tapos magdodorm na ko ;D
- Get to know each other chuchu. Ang sayaaaaa. After nun nagtawag si Kuya Speaker ng tatayo at ituturo lahat ng nakilala niya :D
- Pagkatapos ng getting to know, naglaro ng "Bahay, Baboy, Bagyo" Parang open the Basket. Pag bahay, magpapalit ng basket, pag baboy yung tao sa loob ang papalitan and pag bagyo naman magrurumble lang ang bahay at baboy :D
- They grouped us into seven. Tapos parang nagkaroon ng open forum each group. Nag introduce yourself tapos yung dalawang face nag intoduce samin ng Do's and Don'ts inside the campus and the classroom. Tapos nagkwento din sila kung gaano kasarap at kahirap sa UPLB. Total Freedom daw talaga. Kahit ano gusto mong trip walang pakealaman. May teacher daw na pumapasok ng nakabikini top, may students daw na pumapasok ng nakainom. Keribels lang. Pero depende din daw sa Prof ang rules. Wag daw umabsent ng first day para malaman na lahat :D Mahirap umabsent, pahirapan sa pagkuha ng excuse slip. Hay, kala ko pwede na =))
- Bumalik na ulit kami sa function Hall. Naglaro kami ng ibang version ng bato bato picks per group. Hahaha, ang tawag naman "Archer, Rabit, Wall" Talo ng Archer ang Rabit, talo ng Rabit ang wall at talo naman ng wall ang rabbit :D
- After ng game, balik speaker na ulit pero ibang speaker na. Ngayon naman diniscuss niya ang Advantages ng UPLB at ng Student Affairs. Mga eklavu sa mga ORG, bawal mag Org ang Freshie :D Tapos yung mga University Fees. Mga programs. Mga dorms. Saka yung Student Council and Student Online System. Amazing, ang gagaling nila mag speak. Mga aktibista talaga. Haha
- After ng Speak, nagpakilala silang mga volunteers isa isa. Ang kukulit lang. Lahat sila may "say" yung talagang Ma-ere ang dating. Typical UP. May nagtanong, "Bakit the Best ang UP?" ang sagot nung gay "Dahil nandito tayo. Nandito kayo at nandito ako" oha, pang miss gay :D Ang dami niya sinabi, halos lahat sila kahit iba iba ang course binibida ang kanya kanyang course. Mahalin mo daw ang course mo dahil syempre, yun ang the best. Grabe lang talaga. nakakapressure na nakakaamaze ang confidence nila. Mahihiya ka mahiya =))
Kaya siguro mejo maeere ang people and confident and sinasabi ng iba na mayabang, dahil may K naman talaga sila. Haha, sabi nga nung bakla. Hindi pagyayabang ang pagsasabi ng totoo :"3. Talagang dun pa lang ipapafeel nila sayo na you should feel you are the best because you truly are. Parang bawal ang insecure. Dapat sabihin mo na sa sarili mo na "Talagang magaling ako" Grabe. Nakaka pressure, pero at the same time naeexcite ako :D

Teenage Whatabouts.
I just got home from my classmate's Birthday. Again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYANG! Christian Fred Erispe.
Actually pagod na ako at masakit ang puson ko. Haha, pero gusto ko mag-blog. Kasi baka tamaan na naman ako ng katam kapag may pasok na at araw araw akong pagod.
So si Crystel ang kasabay ko pumunta, tapos dun kami sa 7-11 naghintay ng mga kaklase dahil hindi namin alam ang exact address ni Kyang. Habang naghihintay pa sa iba, pinagusapan namin College life. Ano course ni ganito at kung may schedule na ba siya. Saka kung saan magaaral.
Nung kumpleto na kami, umalis na kami sa 7-11. Tapos habang naghihintay kami ng Jeep, may kumalabit sa`kin. Si Micah Quinay, classmate ko nung elem. Nagulat ako kasi akala ko sa ibang place na sila nakatira, dito pa rin pala sa`min. So usap saglit, tinanong ko kung san siya nag HS kasi ang tagal ko na siyang di nakita. Tapos biglang sabi niya *ang cute mo*. Mejo naspeechless ako. Haha, nagthank you ako tapos sakay na ng jeep. :)) Natuwa lang ako. Haha. GV eh.
Pagbaba namin ng jeep naglakad na kami papunta sa bahay nila Kyang, tapos biglang may tumalon sa harap namin ni Joanne =))) siya kasi kasilong ko sa payong. Hahahaha. *tumalon kasi may railing, so parang talon bakod ginawa nung mama* Laughtrip, poker face na lang kami kasi masyadong papansin si Kuya, tapos sinusundan pa kami. Parang ewan lang. Mejo nagfe-freak out pa si Jo pag nakikita niya, haha. tawa pa din ako, di naman siya makakaano eh. lol. Tawa pa rin ako ng tawa habang nasa daan kasi talagang hindi ako makagetover. Ang init init pa. =)))
Sobrang saya ng birthday kasi nagkasama sama kami ulit. Kwentuhan at kulitan. Iba talaga ang HS friends eh. Nagusap rin kami ng mga takot at excitements namin about college. Mejo nakakalungkot nga kasi wala akong kasama sa school ko :\
Nagusap din kami tungkol sa lovelife. Kasi yung si Jam may bagong boyfriend, edi tinanong namin kung pogi, ayos lang daw. tanong ko mas pogi sa ex mo? Oo daw, ang panget naman daw nun eh. Hahaha. Sabi ko, ganon talaga kapag ex na. Panget =)) Pero kapag boyfriend mo pa di mo masasabi yan. Pag tinanong ka "Gwapo?" "Mahal ko yun!" ang sagot. Hahaha. Saka Sex life, hahahaha. Pero hindi pa kami handang lumevel up sa mga ganung bagay, biruang usapan lang. Mga in case in case at green jokes. Kasi si Cas na boyfriend ni Ann sa manila magaaral, eh dun nga maraming tukso. Haaay. marami kaming kinatatakutan sa college. Saka yung mga ganitong bagay napaguusapan na namin kasi nga, normal na din talaga. Mas maiging napaguusapan kesa hindi alam ang gagawin :D
Pagkatapos ng PBB, wala na kami magawa kanila Kyang, kaya gumala kami sa subdv. Pumunta kami sa playground tapos nakita namin yung mga naglalaro. Eh gusto ko magswing. Hahaha, ayun, naisipan namin pumunta kay Baja na taga Gran Seville. Ang ganda kasi ng playground dun.
Mahabang lakaran, grabe nga eh. nakakapagod pero masaya kasi naguusap at nagbibiruan habang naglalakad.
Nung nakapagswing na ako, ang saraaaaaap. Weeeeeeeeeeee! Parang bata lang. sa tagal ko ba namang hindi nakapagswing. Hindi ko na nga maalala yung last time. Tapos ayun picture picture. Sa susunod ko na lang ipopost mga pics dito. hehehe
Tapos nun sumunod si Jam at yung new boyf niya. Ayun, maya maya umuwi na din kami ;D
Ang saya ng araw na to, nasabihan ako ng cute at di ko talaga malilimutan yung papansin na ewan. Hahaha

Weird
Goooodmoooorning :) I haven't slept yet. Okay, ikukwento ko kung bakit. haha.
Last night a friend called. Nagusap kami. Bla bla bla. He knows about ex and he has a girlfriend. And then he tells me about other girls he like. Kwento kwento. Masarap siyang kausap because he keeps the conversation alive. Unlike other guys or friends.
And noon, nung time na kinwento niya sa`kin na yun nga, na dalawang sabay ang girlfriend niya. syempre tawa lang ako, kasi choice niya yun saka di naman siya nanghihingi ng advice, kinukwento niya lang dahil naguguluhan siya. Then napunta sa usapang crush. Sino crush ko, then nung sa kanya. Sabi niya "Maniniwala ka ba pag sinabi kong crush kita?" tawa tawa lang ako. Hahahaha. Kasi, basta masarap siyang kausap.
So ayun, kwentuhan kami basta kung ano ano lang. Tungkol dito, tungkol dun. Tapos minsan minsan, isisingit niya na crush niya ako. Tapos nagtatanong pa na kung manliligaw daw ba siya, mag pagasa ba? Kinikilig ako =))) Sinabi ko na nga sa sarili ko na ayaw ko muna, kasi sakit sa ulo. So sinabi ko rin sa kanya yun. Saka hello, may girlfriend siya. Dalawa pa, so inunumber three niya ako? =))))
Ayun, wala lang. Nakakainlove siya. I mean, ang gaan ng pakiramdam ko sa kanya. Tapos parang sasadyain pa niya na mahulog ako. Pero ayaw ko, kung mahuhulog man ako, problema ko na yun. May girlfriend siya, masarap lang mafall sa kanya pero hindi siya ideal boyfriend.
Ang galing niya kasi magsalita. He makes you feel special. Sinabi niya pa na sayang pinakawalan daw ako ni ano =))) Tapos, bakit ngayon lang daw niya ako kinilala. Haaaaay. Hahaha. Ewan. Hindi pwede. Hindi siya pwedeng maging boyfriend. Masaya na ako na crush niya ako. Mahaba na hair ko dun =))

Getting There
UP has been my dream school since God knows when and I was so damn lucky to be given the chance.
Nung pumasa ako, everything was still surreal and at first I didn't want to believe it's really true. Everything just slowly got into me when I recieved my admission letter and the attached forms. GRABEEEE! SOBRANG SAYA TO THE POINT NA NABABALIW NA KO SA KAKATAWA AT KAKATALON. HAHAHAHAHA. Saka iba pa yung feeling ko kasi nakapending case pa ako bago na resolve. So thankful.
Then today was my enrollment.
Mahirap kasi ang daming pila, dumaan pa sa medical na pagkatagal tagal para sa requirements. Ang daming requirements na nakakaasar pa dahil may hindi ako alam at nabubwisit ang nanay ko. Ang init. Nakakapagod. Pero nung nakuha ko na yung schedule at class cards, heaaaaaaven :)
Everytime I go to UPLB, am mesmerized. Pero siguro mawawala din to sa pagdaan ng panahon. I am really happy I am now an official "Iska" XD

Yeeehaaaaw
Wow. Blogger had a new face. Magbabalik ako ;D Actually kaya lang naman ako dumalang dito kasi lagi na lang nageerror tuwing magpopost ako. Blogger is my first love and I'm coming back. Magpopost pa rin ako sa Tumblr pero hindi ko talaga feel mag blog dun :D goooood to be back :)
Labels: Personal

A Comeback Post :)
Yes, I know. I've made a promise to myself that I'd be active in this blog for 2011, but it is very obvious that I have failed once again. :)))
Oh well, the reason why I haven't updated this blog for months is because blogger has been a beeatch to me, as well as our internet connection :D Isang buwan dn kaming nawalan for the month of April. And because it's been too long since I've updated, I've got tons of kweeeentos to share. But those kwentos would be on different entries. Masyado kasi ako magulo magkwento, mahirap igets. =)))
So the errors I've encountered with blogger started when I can't log in and I can't post an entry. My last post was about my `feeling` and negative thoughts about school and my emotionalness
lol which are obviously dissolved now :DD So ayun, yung nakaprepare na entry ko about our annual field trip and my 3rd grading grades went to the recycle bin :DD haha! but I'll try to make a new one! I'LL TRY! :)
For a starter, I would like to make kwento from the most recent to the oldest. hrhr :DD And I would kwento what happened yesterday.
I didn't have review classes yesterday so Dad decided to watch Pirates of the Caribbean; On stranger Tides and it was aaaaawesome. Jack Sparrow was still hilarious as ever. :D Then we ate dinner at RaiRai Ken and the night was almost perfect, until! of course there's always something that ruins a good night. haay.

When we were on the way home, may nabangga kami! gosh it was nervewrecking. Alam mo yung feeling na nafeel mo kung ano yung feeling ng mga nakaranas ng car accident. GRABE! Nung biglang preno parang lumabas yung puso ko sa kaba. Luckily, the pressure wasn't that strong because my uncle, who was driving, isn't driving that fast. Edi nung may tumawid na nakabike nag
*beeeeeeeeeeeep* ng matagal at malakas yung tito ko, pero ayun! bumangga pa rin Fortunately hindi malakas yung impact dahil nakapreno kaagad so hindi tumalsik yung tao, pero natumba. Grabe! grabe yung kaba namin, So my dad went out of the car to check on the man. Syempre kami kinakabahan na rin kung ano nangyare dun sa mama, bumaba din kami. Then Me, my bro and his gf saw that the man was drunk.! Grabe! And he didn't asked for anything, Bilhan lang daw siya ng gamot for his gasgas. But we didn't have any medecines with us so my Dad has to buy pa, ayun nagpaiwan kami dun ng kapatid ko and my mom.
While waiting, the man kept talking, kept on reasoning na wala naman daw siyang hinihinging kahit ano, gamot lang. He kep on telling us na `hindi na nga ho ako nagrereklamo` bla bla bla bla.
So the bitch of me, nainis. Db nakakainis yung pangangatwiran niya? It's as if he's implying that we should be thankful he has no plans of suing us. And I'm like, WTF. LASING KA TATAWID KA? SO WE SHOULD BE THANKFUL NA BUHAY KA PA. In that exact moment, lahat ng awa na naramdaman ko nung mabangga siya naglaho. grabe.
And that's not all, he kept on blabbing and blabbing! Eto yung mga sinabi niya.
"SOP po talaga yun, khit sinong driver kapag may nabangga responsibilidad niya yun. Patay man o buhay"
"Hindi ko po talaga nakita na may paparating na sasakyan kaya tumawid ako"
And I'm like, THE FUCK, talagang wala kang makikita dahil lasing ka. And who in his right mind would cross the road drunk? grabe! then isisisi mo dun sa sasakyan na tinamaan ka? eh malayo pa lang bumusina na. Grabe, yung kapatid ko nanlilisik na yung mata dahil gusto nang sapakin. He also kept on insisting na bingannga siya! grabe! Pasalamat siya hindi truck yung nakabangga sa kanya. I also said na `Kuya Hi-Way po ito, kelan po ba nawalan ng sasakyang ang kalsada? Para niyo na ring sinabing wag tumawid ang may paa`
Tapos ayun, napikon ata saken dahil ang pilosopo ko, I was so pissed with him I literally tell jokes to myself para lang tuloy pa rin ang smile ko. Katwiran pa niya na kasalanan yung ng nagdadrive tuwing may nababangga dahil may preno yung sasakyan. Edi para na rin niyang sinabing `pwedeng tumawid ang lasing dahil kahit anong mangyare may preno ang sasakyan`. Grabe. Imagine the mentalism of most Filipinos? SOBRANG BALUKTOT.
I also asked him `kuya may problema ka ba?` and he said "marami, may problema dn kayo kung namatay ako", nung time na yun sabi ng isip ko `putangina pala to ee. gusto lang mamatay mamemerwisyo pa`
That moment naisip ko na kaya hindi umaasenso ang Pilipinas. Naghihilahan tayo pababa. Yung mga mahihirap iniisip nila na mahirap sila, wala na silang pagasa. Kaya ayun, iinom, magbibisyo, magiging pabigat sa pamilya, sa bayan, sa lipunan. Isisisi sa lahat ang kalagayan nila, pero hindi sa sarili nila. Kanya kanya kasi tayong hugas ng kamay ee. kanya kanyang turuan, walang handang umako ng responsibilidad. Kasi kung marerealize ng mga pilipino na hindi ang gobyerno and may sagot sa lahat, nasa kanila na mismo. Pero Hindi, NASA BABA SILA, MANGHIHILA PA. SILA ANG MALI, SILA PA ANG GALIT.
Wala. Hindi tayo aasenso.
Masyadong inabuso ang demokrasya. Oo alam nating may Human Rights tayo, May freedom of speech. But that doesn't give us the rights to use these to destroy or hurt other people. Oo karapatan ng mga nasasagasaan na panagutan sila ng nakasagasa, but that doesn't give them the right to recklessly cross the road because they knew that whatever happens wala silang pananagutan. But didn't they thought about the lives they would destroy together with theirs just because they're tired living?
Tssk. Fucked up Mentality.
Nakakalungkot lang din sa mga simpleng manggagawa tulad ng mga drivers na napapariwara ang buhay dahil sa mga taong wala nang pakealam sa magiging resulta ng mga kagaguhan nila. hay.
So I'm gonna stop here. I just wanna share what I though about these kinds of people and I wanna tell you that I'm Pro RH Bill.
Till then, Bloggers :)

Alone in a Crowded room.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm just too emotional or paranoid about things that cause me to feel this horrible. Sometimes I try so hard not to feel alone by trying to tell myself
`it's not what it seems to be` that maybe, I just misinterpret their actions.
Have you ever felt that way too? You're with a lot of people yet it seems you're alone? That you're sort of caged away? or do you think you're just the one who build up walls?
I am aware that I don't have a bestfriend - though some people tells me thay we're bestrfirends - I just don't feel
THE bestfriend with them, my bestfriend. The only bestfriend I consider is my mom, Someone who likes me because of me and not because of what I can do. I have a lot of closefriends, but there are times that they don't feel that way anymore.
It sucks to be in my situation, I'm like a log on a river, just going with the flow of everything. Everyone is my friend, but I often feel left out. I can be friends with her, with them, with anyone. But times come that they're all friends and I don't have anyone. :( I'm always an exeption to the group, I don't have permanent groupmates and partners and bla bla so when the teacher tells us to group ourselves I just wait for those who's incomplete or left out too.
I started to feel this way again with the fieldtrip thing. They were all like asking everyone
`sasama ka?` but me? They didn't even dare to ask me. Alam mo yung feeling na minsan gusto mo namang may magtanong kung okay ka? :(
One thing that sucks for being strong is that everyone thinks you'll stay strong. ALL THE TIME. It sucks to play along when the truth is, you're effin tired of being strong, and no one cares if you're breaking down already.
I'm tired being their spare tire, they'll just invite me when they feel obliged, they'll just include to fill up one's seat. I'm always a freakin chance passenger. :( It sucks.
I'll continue playing along, I wouldn't dare give them the idea that people like them, who can't even appreciate me, affects me this much. The only thing I regret is that I've let myself care for people who doesn't even give a damn if I existed or not. I'll just hope that soon enough, I'll get the chance to be with people who won't let me feel like trash.
If this feeling is just a misinterpretation of what I see, then all I can say is that they can't tell me what to feel, prior to what they show me.

Jump High, Love lots coz It's 2011.
I know my posts are already late because I'm catching up for updates in my life :)
Our New Year was awesome, though not that great, it was better than any one else's. No one lost a finger, no one was hurt and everybody happy.
The day before Dec 31 we were so not prepared and just doing the same normal things. Then on the exact day, my ever awesome mom found a way to have something on our table :D I was even surprised that we have Lechon :D Kahit ulo lang, lechon pa din yun :)


We've got the bar which I was supposed to drink with my Kuya but he decided to have beer instead so I was left with the bar. haha :))) We started around 8pm and was a bit tipsy by 10 so I stopped for a while to let the `tama` go down my system because I don't wanna welcome the year asleep :D
Yeah I was red and hyper :DDD lololol.

We didn't have that much paputok and Edrian wasn't also with us because he decided to stay in Pampanga for New Year, so yeah, It's a bit sad. We just had fun watching fireworks because Mom didn't buy any for the sake of practicality. Sayang nga naman ang pera kung pagkatapos ng paputok wala na :D

After Midnight everything was the same again. haha :)) The streets went quiet and I guess they all went inside their homes like us. Unfortunately for me, My tummy ached so much that made me too uncomfortable to sleep :D Blame the Bar and my pulutan. haha, but my mom said hangin daw siguro kasi tawa ako ng tawa. Thank God that I was able to sleep around 4am because the ache subsided, next morning I was back on finishing my projects again because classes resume on Jan 3 :D

Christmas Party
YAY, I wanna start this year right by trying to revive my blogging spirits. First stop is that I've finally changed my layout and my default pic. hoho :) I'll also change my about me sections as soon as I can.
So this post will be about our Christmas Party Celebration.
Dec 13-15: It's our Periodicals and we had a very long line-up of deadline but as usual, it seems that I'm the only one who's too stressed about it in our group. Can you imagine to have your Social Studies deadline at the exact day of your Christmas Party? FML. So those days were cram cram cram :))) I have one very effective technique in cramming.
`Sleep is all you need` coz if you study when you're sleepy, nothing goes into your head. :D So I was like
`fuck this. I'm gonna finish this project then sleep` :))) Tapos kinabukasan na ako magrereview :D Thank God I'm exempted in some subjects as incentives to our recent activities.
On the last day of exam, I was too pissed with Lorielle and Crystel who was acting all so great in decorating and planning about our Christmas Party and almost forgot that I'm the president of the class, so yeah, I gave them the privelage of carrying that responsibility. Bahala sila, wala akong pake. So I went home early because I still have nothing to wear. It was a day of dissapointments. Really, but I don't want to tell it anymote :)
Dec 16; We woke up early because my mom and I attended the Simbang Gabi. I was the first to get up - because of excitement, maybe - then my mom. At the Church I was so sleepy very sleepy that I slept almost half of the mass but of course I listened to the homily. On our way home my mom and I just walked because we still have to drop by the market and buy ingredients for carbonara which was my assigned dish for the party. When we got home I excitedly took a bath and did all the rituals and bla bla bla for the party.
I arrived at the party early and it wasn't what I was expecting, really. It screams boring all over the place :)))) then I told the one in charge, Crystel, what was the agenda for the day and she told me she hasn't made any and all of those excuses. Kesyo hindi na nga siya nakatulog ng ayos and bla bla bla, so my usual self got pissed and rant and rant at the back of my mind. I was thinking
`what the hell was that excuse? you volunteered to organize this, now you're complaining that you haven't slept yet?` So she'll just sabotage the party? ugh! I tried to pull some strings, make some plans and thankfully the videoke already arrived so we decided to start. Then at the climax of our Adrenalines, it suddenly blocked out! YEAH, and we found out that the office cut the main power because there's too many videokes and the outlets might not accomadate all of it. We were like
`what the hell? It's not the first year to bring Videokes in and how can you call this a Party without electricity? :(

we went outside and tried to proceed to our games, but again, walk out queen Crystel did it again, got pissed and just shooed off. What a bitch, you gonna take it all then spit it out? tss, so who's gonna clean that mess? ME! but that day I didn't wanna ruin my mood because our adviser was there. Haaay. Fortunately after the game they brought back the electricity so Ma'am Pam our adviser told me that we should proceed to the exchange gifts because we're already hungry. :D



I recieved a watch and a necklace that I haven't uploaded yet because I can't find my Camera's charger. ugh. :)) after Exchange gift was eating time. yum :D


After Kainan, we were talking about `what are we gonna do? should we go somewhere?` I asked Ann, the Gala among us if they're gonna go anywhere and she said she wasn't sure and that it depends who's gonna come so I said I would like to but I haven't brought money with me. We talked and discussed and planned and ended up going to Festival, It was kinda sad that only a few were able to come because some of us our parents disagreed.

The usual Barkada Gala. WAIT WAIT WAIT. TEXT TEXT TEXT. PIC PIC PIC :)) the original 11:30 plan happened to be 1:00 :)) We arrived at Festi around 1:30 and then viola, kanya kanyang gala :DD We enetered shops ans looked at those tag prices and our eyes just went $_$ because we don't have that much money to shop. hrhr.
We ended up riding the roller coaster and they were all sort of afraid and had partners and I don't so I was in front alone. hahaha :))) and I was teaasing and laughing at their faces during the ride. :D We bought books worth 10 to 20 php :)) then went home around 5:30 because we might be caught in traffic. I arrived home smiling and surprisingly my mom wasn't mad, she didn't even preach. yahoooo :)) I bought her a present too :D

Cheers for a New Year
Today is the last day of 2010 and the last day of this decade. So this is probably my last post, of course. I am deeply sorry for not posting any entry this past few weeks or even months because of some teenage bullshit that occured to me.
I think I've lost my sense of blogging. I got lazy, almost on everything, it's like my mind went to a long pause that everytime an idea comes to my mind, a part of it shuts it down and I end up being `sabaw` :)
I've been through a lot of emotional stress lately that I can't find a way to summarize, really. And I think It's the reason why I can't make a decent post with one thought. Okay, Tama na :D basta masyado akong nasabaw :D
Moving forward, I would tell you about how I spent this christmas.
I would say that this year has been the loneliest and the worst year yet to come because it's been a roller coaster ride. From school to everything I've been through a lot. I've been thinking a lot about what I want for my life, about the decisions I have made and decisions I have to think of.
Christmas this year didn't feel like christmas at all, during Christmas eve I went outside our house and felt nothing, The houses were dull and the ambience was just too lonely and very different from the previous Christmases. I reminisced a lot of memories, of how we spent our christmas the other years, of how different it was. I also thought what would it be like if my dad was here to celebrate with us.
I was almost sad and furious with our overall situation this christmas because my mom was almost broke and I can seriously feel the world crisis everyone is suffering too. Our Noche Buena was just the basics, nothing glamorious unlike our last years and basta, It's too hard to describe how dull it was, but nevertheless we were able to pull it off. My mom told me it's okay at least we're still lucky to have something to eat and to be able to celebrate it with the family. We're still lucky to have food on our table.
After Christmas my dad's package came so viola :)) party party :DD lol, we've got lots of supplies again so It wasn't that sad afterall eh :) The next day we went to Pampanga to visit our lola and my cousins too :D Nanay was still the same and we thank god that she's still here with us, still strong ang kicking :D We stayed there for two days just talking about Nanay's frustration about my Uncles Family and my elder cousin who's taking the wrong decisions in life. So all in all, our family is hanging by a thread since my lolo died :( and my cousing and I were just remiscing how good life was before, how happy we still were when lolo was still here.
ah, good times. :)
Happy New Year Everyone :) I still got a lot of pending entries and I don't want to mix it all up with one entry so see you all next year :)

Dear Blog
I know I've been too busy to be with you but I want you to know that life has been good these past days and I don't want you to feel neglected. I promise to keep you, for as long as I can because you've been there during the darkest days of my teenage life. I'll never delete you. Promise. Yes I may update you once in a while but what you have is something no one, even my friends do, and I'm gonna keep you. Maybe I'll show you publicly to my real life affiliates a second before I die.
You're one of the best things I have and I'm gonna stick with you no matter how many better sites would come.
Love,
Zaira

Birthday Bash.
This week has been so fun and memorable despite the fact that it was exam week.
Last Friday was our Quiz slash dance presentation for MAPEH and it was perfect :) we got 60 perfect point for the dance so PARTEY PARTEY :) everything was okay, no harm done with those misunderstandings and I was right just to let it pass. After the presentation I told them to come to my birthday and It was SO AWKWARD XD because I'm really not used to approach them in that sweet kind of way. Ayun, and yung iba pa sabi `invited ba ko` and I was like, I am really that bad? lol! hahaha :)) then I told them everyone is and I wasn't just able to announce it earlier so parang haka haka lang nung una.
The celebration of my birthday turned out to be so so so successful and Unexpected. At first I was so unsure if there would be a celebration because my mom's broke and I've already invited my friends so I told my mom it would be okay if it's just simple, just few of my classmates and just the basic menus.
But It was so fun because my very wonderful mom have connection and friends that she was able to pull it through! ang daming handa and almost half of it was just sponsored by politicians dahil malapit na election :)) yay!
My friends were LATE! and I was nervous at first that no one would come. aww! and when Angel, Jam, Therese, Matthew came there was this awkward atmosphere that I didn't know how to start the party! haha :) we watched Resident Evil; Afterlife then when Earvin texted that they were coming I told Angel and the others to hide =DDD then It was the icebreaker. We were laughing and sweating when they arrived. Hah! :) panira lang yung mga tsinelas kasi di namin natago ;D
I was so happy because THERESE who's always MIA on my birthday came! and then Gill, though late and Ranniell :) It's just sad because Jeff didn't make it. aww :D and I have a hunch na iniiwasan niya ako because of that birthday issue.

The normal plan which was a movie marathon turned out to be an ICING BASH! :))) It started when my mom popped in and told everyone they have to sing Happy Birthday! :)) and you know that awkward feeling when everyone's singing you a happy birthday! haha :D I blew the cake and wished then got a knife to cut the cake but the moment it was put down! They dug their fingers in and started wiping everybody's face with icing! :))))))))))

After that the party just got more intense. hahahaha :)) laugh trip and shouting because we switched the movie to Nightmare on Elm's street :D
When the girls started to say bye I wanted to cry but did not. I just really missed gill and the day was so awesome to end. The girld went first and the boys decided to finish the movie and oh god :))) something almost happened I just can't find any words to describe it. haha.

Sorry if this post is way too late and I have another post upcoming :D

Wishes do come true, even in the most unexpected way.
Today was unusually surprising because things happened the way I didn't pictured it to be, though it wasn't that bad, it was actually good but I'm wasn't ready for it. haha :))
My day started out gloomy and a bit dull like the weather because as I said, I wasn't expecting it. I mean, I was expecting a happy greeting and a good morning from the most special person in my life, my mom. But because of yesterday's bad news she was sort of pissed and even forgot to greet me a happy birthday, plus another person I was expecting a greet from didn't :(
But despite my gloomy morning and a very awkward first subject, when English time came, tenteneneneeen :)) Ann reminded our adviser that it's my birthday so hello embarrassment :)) I was called in from of the class and they sang Happy Birthday, then I was surprised when our adviser called a Lorielle, Crystel, Ann and tenen! Jeff to tell a message for me. :D Ayun, I wasn't expecting it, lalo na yung kay Jeff, kasi crush ko sya =))))) tapos nag co-conclude pa yung iba na kami `daw` naku~ :)) how I just wish. haha
So ayun, though it was cute and sweet, I kind of don't like it, kasi parang nabadtrip sya tapos may tendency na lalo siyang mailang :( eh hindi na nga kami kasing close noon. :( kahit gusto ko, mas magandang friends na lang, walang malisya, mas masaya. db? hay. :)))
Then another lucky news is that I'm exempted in Filipino's periodical exam ;D kasi may homework kami na magcompose ng kanta related to our topic and I was pushed during the period to sing my song kasi ng birthday ko daw :D so ayun! Reward pala is exemption. YAY :)
Overall my day was good, I just felt a little weird after lunch. Ang panget kasi ng panahon, I often don't feel well lately :D and the only bad thing is that the person I was expecting to care more doesn't and those whom I don't even expect to remember were the ones to greet me first, akalain mo si Lorielle yung unang sumalubong sa`kin kaninang umaga to hug me and say Happy Birthday? aww, I was actually expecting some of my closest friends, but they seem to forget. Nagulat pa nga sila and said, `ay oo nga pala, birthday ni Zai` >.<>
This day was good, I saw those person who really care, who deserves my trust :) Lalo na yung mga elem friends ko. I miss them, kahit ang dami dami na nagbago, when we talk, it seems that everything just happened yesterdat :)

Empty Smiles
I miss blogging, but I'm back on the state of not knowing what to blog again. hihi :))
Last week was one of the memorable weeks of my HS life so far because it was our Periodical week and also our Acquaintance Party.
Ayun, emo na naman ako :))) there's just a lot of things going on my mind right now, on what's happening on my life and I'm just sort of missing something. I badly want something I can't have. :) Oh well, siguro meron ako pero hindi ko pa napapansin :) I just miss the feeling :D
I'll kwento more further when I'm on the mood :D The Party was fun but I wasn't happy :)) I laugh, I smile, it was good but It wasn't the happy me :D
