Finally.sigh.

My tune: Heard 'em say by Kanye West

For a moment, I thought I was quitting blogging. It has been two weeks since I last posted. The excitement and urge to blog has somewhat died down in those 14 days of absence. As an individual, it is in my nature to lose interest on a special thing I dearly love in due course. Blogging is that special thing. When I cant blog for a long period of time, I get disinterested all of a sudden. It's what they call "short attention span". Am I right? Well, blame it all to my faulty internet connection. But anyhway, Im glad I am not quitting blogging.There is so many drama in life worth blogging about. Here are the things that happened to me and the things I planned to do when I was not around.


  • I ran in our student government for Vice-President.
  • Leading with only 13 votes from my opponent, I prevailed victoriously.Gees, I am so happy.
  • I am even happier to know that I've got the easiest, and most hectic-free position.Woohoo.Last year, I got elected as the secretary.From that experience, let me give you a piece of advice: Never ever run as a secretary.You'll only regret it.Especially if you dont have the perfect handwriting.Hahaha.
  • My friends deserted my blog [!!].That's why nobody reads the things I put here anymore.Except for donya quixote.She's my only blogfriend I decided to link. Before I rebuilt this site, I had many links and blogfriends.But I grew tired visiting their blogs.All they do is blog about their whining and ranting.So when I reopened this blog 3 months ago, I decided not to link them again.

  • I am going to link people again. But this time around, I'll only link people who have relevant blogs that wont give me a headache when I read 'em.Heehee.

  • I discovered this very helpful website for people who sometimes couldnt understand the lyrics of their favorite songs [like me]. I was looking for the meaning of the lyrics of the song Champagne Supernova by Oasis and I stumbled on this site. Visit it and finally, understand.

  • I gave my friendster profile a makeover. My theme is about the choice between doing good or evil. Check it out here.






  • I am dying to have a haircut.Having long hair requires a lot of maintenance.High maintenance that is.I simply dont have the time and willingness to do so.Im thinking of going bald.Like Britney. [Of course, you know Im joking.]

Well thats about it.Nothing more to say. I still have a writing competition tomorrow so my post ends here.After this, I'll go bloghopping and look for blogs worth linking.^^

A less boring post tomorrow.

Good night everyone.

These are a few of my favorite things




My tune: The Valley Song by Jars of Clay

I wil be having my First Grading examinations next week so I wont be able to type long posts for the next 7 days. One thing I learned from the past month is to be always prepared for everything so the days ahead of me will be a time for preparation. Tonight I am posting a very short post but yet, such a meaningful one.

Yesterday, I went to National Bookstore. Besides drooling over their shelves of delightful reads, I noticed a book These are a few of my favorite things by Tony Burton from Make a wish Foundation. The book contains the wishes [which the foundation heartfully granted] of little kids with life-threatening diseases. Its a inspiring book which will make you realize that the simplest things are of the greatest value. So now I am also making my own list. But I wont include material things. I've come to realize that material objects are not my favorite things after all.


These are some of my favorite things:
  1. Experiencing the amazing Grace of my Abba Father.
  2. Seeing fluffy, colorful clouds in the skies.
  3. Laughing out of nowhere because a funny memory came into mind.
  4. Catching my breath while having a L.O.L moment.
  5. Having a worthwhile conversation with a friend.
  6. Friday nights and Saturday mornings.
  7. Eating out with the oldies<---- mom and pop. :]
  8. Doing something brave and new.
  9. Being nocturnal with my fellow nightly species, my greatly-missed sisters.
  10. Hearing a song that makes me think, sigh, and become nostalgic.
  11. Videoke with my dorky girl friends.
  12. Being in the backseat of our car.
  13. Waking up to a rainy morning.
  14. Love.

Gees, I had to stop myself from making a hundred-long list. I dont know why, but I just love making lists like that one. I guess that adds to my list of my favorite things too.Haha! My favortie things may seem bizarre so here are some of my reasons.

On #4. I dont know if its a health problem but everytime I laugh so hard, I run out of oxygen that I need to stop and catch my breath first before I resume laughing. But even although its like that, I love the feeling of it. Yes.Yes.Yes. I am abundant in laughing gas.

On #7.Being a sort of "only child" since all of my sisters left home for college, I have so much time spent alone with my parents. I never thought about it but my parent are cool after all. The three of us always, and I mean always, eat dinner out and so we bond more and pretty much, sooner or later, the three of us will become BFF's. Hahaha.

On # 10. I love songs that bring back memories.

On # 12. Sitting on the backseat of our car is a pleasure for me. Its an amusing thing to do to watch the buildings and people your car passes by and hearing adult conversation happening in the front seats. It is almost like for a moment, you become invisible as you sit at the backseat.

On # 13. Rainy mornings make me sleep like a baby.

Making that list was fun and inspiring.Hey, why dont you make one too? Believe me, its worthwhile.

Oh ehm gee!!

My tune: You set me free by Michelle Branch

I am feeling ecstatic right now. After one whole week of being separated from my one and only love, I am back in its arms once again. Yes, yes. My internet connection is alive and kicking. I was so lost and depressed without it. [exaggeration implied]

Anyhoo, that is not just the reason why I am feeling head over heels happy today. There are a lot of things to be happy about. First of all, I made it to my school paper. Yeah baby! I am now the official photo editor of Starlight. What I am even more happy about is the fact that I will be like a photographer more than a writer. Haha. I lurve photography better than writing and I do believe that I also work better in the first one. See, oh ehm gee!

And you know whats even better? I will be the one in charge of Starlight's website. If you have visited the website , you cant help but notice it's [ehem ehem] "plain jane " design. But wait till I get my hands on it. It will be G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S.



And before I forget, let me greet you a Happy month of July. I dont know how but I have made it like a sort of custom to celebrate everytime a new month has come. The month of June was a gloomy month for me so I am looking forward for a fresh, new, and better month thats ahead of me.


Im running out of words to say so let me leave you with this oh-so-hilarious video from the movie Grease. Some of my friends and I watched this movie for our supposed to be musical play for our music class. But it was cancelled. Oh ehm gee, just watch how John Travolta dances in the video. Lol.I wonder if he could still do that in his age now? hmmm.
