Wiped my brow and kept pushing through

Last weekend of my summer. *sighs. So, the other day was our capping and badging. People kept congratulating me for being able to get there but I seriously don't get the fuss about the event. And instead of Congratulations, I think the more appropriate greeting is, "I'm sorry for you", lol jk. But seriously though, all that I take from the capping and badging is that.. we are now being welcomed to the world of duties, extensions, and case studies. And GGB (gulong-gulong buhay). AHAHAY. Not exactly something I'm looking forward to, but what can I do? Life moves on forward, and fine, I'll take it. Hopefully, I make it out sane and whole. Hahahaha.



And at the end of the event, we took a "class" picture. But it didn't quite make sense to me that they had us class pictured with our new classmates, our upcoming classmates.. whom I didn't know yet. Bummer since that class picture was supposed to mean something. I mean, that picture was supposed to remind me that I got there, and if it was a class picture with my BSN 1A - it would remind me of how I got there, how we got there, all the struggles we all had together, all the things we did for each other, and all the people who were there with me and for me in the journey. And that we were able to get to that place together. It was with BSN 1A that I was able to get through every challenges that I needed to be able to have the cap on my head.


My BSN 1A ♥

Well, I know we're also gonna have memories to share together with my BSN2 block eventually but, as for now, all I see in that picture are mostly strangers..


BSN 2B

Anyway. I ran my second fun run this morning. Just 1.6K since I don't think I could make 7k alive. Hahaha. But it was still a fun experience. :)



Also, I've decided to proof read my posts properly from now on! Hahahaha to keep me from anymore unneeded shame.

Song for the day - God Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts.
I usually don't listen to Rascal Flatts since country just doesn't click on me that much (well there are some awesome country songs, I admit) but the lyrics of this song is just plain beautiful. :)

This post is dedicated to a friend who has always supported me with my blogging. I am aware that almost no one reads my blog, lol, and having a person show appreciation for these pages and pages of some well thought of and some just out of boredom posts, really really means a lot to me.

Patricia Ysabel Garces, thank you. =)
For being an awesum friend, a person I can always talk to about anything, and I mean ANYTHING, for being such a good source of good music suggestions, for having the same level of appreciation over things with me, for the support, for eating the dared putos in our Uno game and most of all, for being the best "suckest" friend, everrr. You are awesome, and you know it.

We both mutually love so many things (ie. Harry Potter, good music, Glee!), it makes us click as friends, yes? And she'll always be one of the people who'll submit to my crazy ideas, like having our full names, which we both don't like that much, displayed on our Facebook accounts for one whole month! Hahaha I love you Crabby Patty.



So, Patty left comments on my older posts, which kind of forced me to read some of the stuff I wrote before. Hahahahaha ohmygosh, I'm so sorry for the numerous typos! I usually don't proofread my posts. Well, sometimes I do, but as I repeatedly say, I am a nocturnal blogger, so by the time I proofread my posts, my brain is just half-awake, half-asleep. Hahaha it's embarrassing. And being the lazy face that I am, I didn't bother editing my typos I saw a while ago.. Naah, who cares about my posts anyway? lol

But re-reading my older blog posts made me realize the effectiveness of my blog, to myself. I got to read my insights months, and years ago. And it's always refreshing to be able to look back and feel the same feelings again. Hahaha it works for me, I even laughed at some silly posts I had like that idiotic post where I rhymed every sentence. Yes, I can be all sorts of crazy.

Nu Ni No No.
All for now. :)

-

That, is true Gleek dedication. It's not easy waiting for 2-5 hours, but after I watched the episodes, that feeling of hope and happiness I get after Glee is beyond worth it. :)

So.. I just finished watching Glee's finale after our internet got freaking crappy, it initially had a 0.4kB/sec speed so I had to wait for 4 hours to get the episode finish downloading. But it was worth every minute.

GLEE. ♥
I don't know, but I have become very attached to the show, it's hard for me to explain. I started crying on the first scene! And it went on and on and on. I don't care anymore how critics rate Glee's episode tonight (cause I'm usually keen on reading critic reviews of each episodes), all I know is that, Glee makes me very, very, very HAPPY. =)

There's just too much to say about the finale of Glee. Tina's speech about Facebook. Josh Groban (I have a hidden desire for this guy, LOL). Journey. Rachel and Finn. Faithfully (the EMOTION!). Don't Stop Believing♥. The rest of New Directions now having a part in DSB. Quinn's mom. Bohemian Rhapsody + Quinn. Puck's face during the delivery. Brittany in the waiting room (OMG, did anyone else see what she was doing?? HAHAHAHAHAH). Beth. Sue's vote. Emma's rage. New Direction's speeches. To Sir, With Love. Sue's heart. Somewhere over the rainbow. The friendships.. See you on September, again, Glee. :)

The thing about Glee, is that, although they are over-the-top dramatic (which I love, a breath of fresh air from the overly serious dramas on television nowadays), and everything, they still manage to produce quality story lines that hits you in the heart. Glee shows you what music can do, how music can go beyond and touch every soul. How music relates, that even if these characters are so different from each other, yet they all still have that common denominator, music. And even if you know that it is all part in the script, music allows you to grasp and understand how the characters work and how they are feeling. That is Glee's advantage, the use of music to transcend boundaries and enable people to feel. And above all, Glee has a heart. And humor (YES, BRITTANY).

And yes, maybe for someone who just watches Glee occasionally and just watches Glee for the performance numbers, the last episode may just be below expectations. But it was different for me. As a person who watched every single episode of Glee and took in every characters' story, the finale meant a lot for me. I watched it by heart. During the entire 43 minutes and 16 seconds of it, there were flashbacks on the earlier days of Glee, when they were still a few of them, on how they all pretty much hated each other, on how Puck used to trap Artie in the comfort room and throw around Kurt in the dumpster. When Quinn was "the Queen" and Santana and Brit were her court. On how Rachel always wanted every single fucking solo and her mindset that she should be the only star. On how Finn hesitated to be vocal about his Glee club membership. On how Tina used to stutter. On how Kurt was just this weird gay kid who loves wearing expensive clothes and branded bags. On how Mercedes was just this fat black chic who thought she's in love with the weird gay kid. On how Artie felt like he was someone of no use and how he felt so misunderstood, that everyone thinks he was okay with their lack of consideration to his situation. On how Mike was just the "other Asian kid" who no one knew could dance so wickedly awesome. On how Sue was just this cold hearted bitch who didn't give a damn on anything other than her achievements. On how William was just this trophy husband who tried forgetting his dreams for the sake of his marriage. On how Emma was just a paranoid obsessive compulsive..

Get what I mean? For me, this episode showed their growth. How music enabled them to break free from status quo and express themselves. And how friendships that developed in the club allowed them to make themselves better. On how music showed these characters' other sides, the sides they try to hide. Look at them now, far more different from who they were, now powered by their dreams and aspirations.

And just think of it this way. On Glee's Pilot, Don't Stop Believing was just sang mainly by Rachel and Finn. Now, Don't Stop Believing was about everybody in New Directions and their stories, on how to keep believing despite everything else.

I just love Glee, I just love them, I just love their message of optimism. In this world of chaos and disasters right now, we do need this ray of sunshine in our lives. Glee inspires.




I'm totally letting my grandchildren watch this whole damn thing.

Rachel: Break a leg.
Finn: I love you.

So what?
11:30 PM | Sunday, June 06, 2010


..if I spell awesome as "awesum"? Or yes as "yeas"? Or type "BAHAHAHA" instead of the usual Haha? lol, so what? It makes me happy, eh.

Anyway, so I was friggin bored to the ground and wide awake at 4 AM earlier today. And here's how 4AM went..


With a couple of sharpies, coloring pens and that silly old awesome looking camera that never works anymore, it made my boring sleepless dawn a creative early morning activity. lol. But I should try to get back to a normal person's sleep time since school is once again coming faster than you can say ova parasite entamoeba histolytica. Hihihi. I'm enrolling myself tomorrow, *sighs.

I finished reading Chords of Strength, though. Yey! But I still didn't move a single page in my Sherlock Holmes book, which has more than 800 pages waiting for me. Rarrr. :D

I'm running out of things to talk about. But this is good, atleast I still blog often. When school gets in, I'm sure blogging would go back down lower numbers in my list of priorities. Nu ni no no.

BYE! :)

OHMYGOSH. I was looking through a forgotten album in my Photobucket account when I saw this. This was pure awesomeness. =)

Top 4 Week of AI9 (May 6, 2008 - US Time)
David Archuleta's numbers: 1-866-IDOLS-04 / 1-866-IDOLS-08

And yes, I did get to vote. It had very busy lines, but I got in a couple of times. Hahaha. I did this only for two episodes. Top4 and Top3. I was happy whichever wins in the finale so I chose to not vote cause although I loved Archie with all my heart, I knew Cook deserved it more than anyone.

AWESUMM. :D

This made me happy today, I seriously thought I'd be getting my hands on this book weeks after the original release day. And look at that, 2 days after the release date. Wooot :-*

I'm almost done reading it. And I'm amazed at how much stories there are that we don't know yet. And reading the book, it's like, David materializing in by bed telling stories about his life and accomplishments. I like how he writes it so casually, it's as if we're just having a conversation.

And it makes me happy how he mentioned the Philippine concert in his Top 3 tours. =)
LA LA LA~

Some people need to work on their originality. I don't know if they're aware of it, or maybe they're just sponges who easily absorbs to what their environment's doings/sayings/mannerisms.. but sometimes it pisses me off. Just saying.. .. ..

WE WANT THE FUNK, NA NA NA NA NA.
10:56 PM |


OLAA. I was bored. And I just finished watching Glee Episode 21 - Funk. Glee is like my total guilty pleasure. Anywaaayy, I really loved the episode. For those who keeps track with Glee's latest episodes like me, I have to tell you, this one right here, was unsurprised with the new Rachel-Jesse romance direction. I still love Jesse, tho. But more than that, PUCK still enchants my fancy. ♥

Oh but tonight's episode was so freakin gooood. Especially the finale number, where Vocal Adrenaline totally got served. You have to watch it for yourself.


"See you punks at regionals" - Puck.

Glee season 1 officially ends next week. Boo. But thank you, Glee for entertaining me. May Season 2 be as great as Glee already is. Be back soon, K? I'll miss you. lol

Anyway. To other things. We watched Sex and the City earlier today. FREAKING AWESOME. We just couldn't shold our laughters. Every 3 minutes, something just tickles our souls. Must watch, it'll make your brain sparkle. And Mr. Big, oh, Mr. Big ♥

And to more news. I was bored earlier waiting for Glee to finish downloading, so.. I've decided to take pictures of my room! LOL, yes. And since it's here, I'll just go show it to you. Welcome, to my world. :D




It's already a bit different than how it looked like when I first moved in the room. It's got more stuff now. Here, so you can compare, I actually made a short virtual tour video of my room back then. This was to prove to a friend that my room is waaay neater than hers. lol. See it here - CLICK.

But still, as much as possible, and as much as time and energy allows, I try to keep my room clean all the time. But it's much more messier during the months I have classes since I don't have time to fix my bed in the mornings. My blanket and sheets are basically left scattered. Haha.


Owned.

YEY. So that's my room. And lastly, I'd like to introduce you to some of my friends. They can be found in my now-office #2 since office #1 is my room now, thanks to wifi. :) Here, met them at Disneyland Hongkong. Aren't they the cutesttt??



Hahaha that's all for now. TTYL.
