New Year

Yep, a few (if you can call 10 few) hours left, and it's a new year! And here I am, in front of the computer again. Hahaha. Looks like that part of me will never change.

I think I've posted my New Year's resolutions in the previous previous post. Hope I can do them.

I've spent my money already x| And that's why I'm stuck at home. I'm not really in the mood for blogging. Just wanted to greet you guys. Have a merry merry new year! May we all have a great year ahead of us. Cheers!

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!

May you enjoy this holiday with your loved ones.

God bless you and your family!

'Tis the season to be jolly, la la la la la, la la la la!!

[Drama mode, ON!]

Sana ngayong pasko, maalala mo pa rin ako...

At kahit wala ka na, nangangarap at umaasa pa rin ako...

In Pain

My ulcer's worse than I thought. It's killing me now. Since yesterday. My mom's gonna kill me, if ulcer doesn't kill me first. Crap. I can feel the gastric juices slowly eating my insides. Ugh.

Vacay's still boring. Hoping for something exciting and more blog-worthy to happen. I've half a mind to sleep now.

EDIT:

This post was too short, and then I thought of something. On the way home from school, I was thinking of my resolutions for next year. Here are some of what I thought of:

1. Less softdrinks, or better yet, no softdrinks. Ulcer's still killing me.
2. Less spicy food, same reason as 1.
3. Less junk food, or completely none. For good ol' health.
4. Exercise more.
5. Eat more fruits.
6. Eat more veggies.
7. Never skip meals, especially breakfast. For dear ol' stomach.
8. STUDY. Oh my God, this is gonna need some serious work.
9. Spend less on not-so-important things (I'll do this when I'm done with the Starbucks card).
10. Watch at least one movie every week (If and only if, one, I have money, and two, there's a very good flick, or maybe not even a good one, but at least appealing)
11. Be honest. Note: Being honest is not the same as telling stuffs.
12. Do charity work. Looking forward to FTK.
13. Spend more time alone. For my sanity's sake.

Now that I'm at it, let's see my wishlist for Christmas:

1. The new dark blue gray Chuck Taylor.
2. A bloody red messenger bag to go with my bloody red belt and bloody red Chucks. Not what I had in mind, but I already bought one. Hehehe. The problem is, there's a Blue Magic writing in front. It's not that pathetic, but I'd rather have a plain one. Oh well, I'll think of ways to remove it.
3. A N6260 casing, even if it doesn't exist.
4. A wireless keyboard for my phone.
5. A bluetooth USB.
6. A 512MB (or higher) RSMMC for my phone.
7. A 256MB RAM.
8. A 128MB (or higher) video card.
9. An external CDRW/DVDR. (Eww, I'm being so techy with all the above stuffs)
10. A bloody red sweater, to go with number 2.
11. A new pair of contact lenses.
12. Complete set of One Tree Hill episodes.
13. Complete set of Charmed episodes.
14. Complete set of Smallville episodes.
15. Complete set of X-Men cartoons episodes.
16. Complete set of Pokemon TV series episodes, and movies.
17. Complete set of Sex and the City episodes.

That's not much if you ask me. They're just basic needs. EDIT: Just added numbers 12 to 17, so the list is not so basic anymore. Hehehe.

First Day

of the Christmas break and I'm dying already.

Last night, my knees were aching so bad, I didn't fall asleep right away, even if I was too sleepy. I ended up eating, then texting people. Good thing JV was up. Even if he's a super duper slow texter. Haha! Anyway, I fell asleep waiting for his reply.

And when I woke up, my stomach was aching. I didn't know if it was hungry or needed to go to Yuch. But I think it's an ulcer attack. Heck, it's still aching now, even after eating and drinking medicines. I was planning on sleeping early, in hopes of fixing this wretched bio clock.

Now how on earth am I going to finish that Starbs card. Still have ten stickers to go. Anybody? Hehehe. People, well, Starbs people (Joyce and JV) are in their provinces now. I guess I could con my sister into treating me. Haha!

Boooorrriiiinnngggggg... Even blogging seems boring... Sorry bloggy...

Speaking of my bloggy, one month to go, and it's his anniversary!! Yay!! I'm gonna celebrate it, with my new Starbs planner! Haha!

Ho God

442 in the morning and I'm typing away!

Crap, my sleeping habit's definitely gone haywire. Lately, I've been sleeping so early (like 7 or 8 or 9 or 10 in the evening, mind you, that's early), and I wake up so early too! (like 12 or 1 or 2 in the morning!) And then I won't be able to sleep until 9 or 10 or 11 in the morning! Crap. And it's course card distribution day today. *sigh*

This day marks the official end of the term. Another boring vacation, if you can call an almost-less-than-two-weeks "vacation" a vacation. Errr... Never mind. I miss the times during high school when Christmas (and summer) vacation meant going to my Tito's house in Pangasinan, right in front of a beach, with my family and relatives. Heck, I miss the days when we went to the beach. I can't remember the last time I went to one. That must mean something.

Nothing, just wanted to rant.

You Had Me At Hello

Woohoo!! My first Job Level 50 character in Ragnarok! And my first crusader! Woohoo!!

Hehehe, sorry for that. Well, I can officially say that the term is over, even if our course cards haven't been given yet. I've been doing nothing but sit in front of the computer since Friday night. Gahd, whatta way to spend the Christmas break.

Speaking of Christmas, I can't believe that I'll feel my most scary experience during this holiday season. I think it was Saturday, I woke up very early, like 7 in the morning. That's early for me, and I slept at something like 4AM. So I woke up, opened the PC, and played, as usual. Then at around 11AM, I felt sleepy, so I went to my sister's room, and slept there.

After ten minutes of lying down, I thought I was asleep, but I wasn't. I felt like I was sleeping, but then I felt like I was awake too. And when I tried to get up, I couldn't. It was like my body weighed a thousand tons. And then, I remembered Frytz' and Ross' experience, just like this. And hell, did I ever feel scared! Before Frytz told me his and Ross' experiences, I've already felt this, feeling like I was awake but I was really sleeping, not being able to move my body. I usually jerk my body even if it seemed impossible, and it always works. I wake up after that.

But after Frytz' creepy stories (just ask him about it if you want), I felt, "What the hell, what's happening to me??" I almost lost my cool. I tried to open my mouth and shout, but I couldn't. I opened my eyes (or at least I remembered opening my eyes) and saw the wall of the room. I immediately closed it, because I might see something (or someone) else. And then I remembered to pray. Okay, you're probably saying something like, "Whatever, Treb." But really, I prayed. I just finished saying one word, "Lord," and then I felt electricity going through my whole body, like my whole body's feeling cramps. And the more I got scared. I tried to continue my own prayer (remembering that at scary and creepy times like this, you should pray your own personal prayer), and luckily I was able to. My prayer still started with "Lord," but I forgot what I said next. I think it was something like "You are the most powerful of all." Again, after I said the word "Lord," electricity coursed through my body again. And then I woke up.

Boy, did I ever felt scared.

Anyway, I've watched two movies since I last blogged. One, In Her Shoes, and the other is King Kong.

One word describes In Her Shoes. Draggy. The plot is oh-so plain. Starring Cameron Diaz and Toni Collette (NSWTS*), it's about two sisters who are totally different. Toni's the goody-two-shoes sister, while Cameron's the bitchy one. Well, I really didn't want to watch this one, I wanted to watch The Fog. But JV made me and Karen watch this. Okay, so The Fog isn't a good movie either (according to friends), but I still didn't want to see In Her Shoes. Anyway, I expected this movie to be a semi-comedic one, as Cameron's there. But nooo. I can count in one hand the scenes where we laughed. Okay, so I cried in the last part. Well, that's because I really have shallow tears (errr, that's a direct translation, I didn't know the English equivalent). Anyway, it's a so-so movie. Go watch it if you have no other choice to watch.

Now, King Kong. You wouldn't believe this, but I was laughing three-fourths of the time we were watching the movie. And it's three hours long. Ahahaha, I can still remember it. Svet and I were making fun of the movie (not because it's ugly or pathetic or anything, we just made fun of it) which caused us to laugh almost every ten minutes. JV was hissing us, which is very un-JV. He should've been laughing with us, but noooo, it's his debut movie, so I understand. Good thing the others weren't hissing us, or I guess they were, but we didn't hear them, as we were so engrossed in laughing our heads off. King Kong's very likeable, if you're watching it with Svet and Me. Hahaha! Seriously, the movie's good. Fantastic visual effects. Exaggerated production (in a good way). Naomi Watts is gooood. Not to mention very beautiful. I didn't like Jack Black much. And oh, Adrien Brody's (NSWTS*) nose is to die for. As in, I'd die if I had his nose! Hahahaha! My gawd, the holes of his nose is bigger than King Kong's! Hahahaha!! Not that I don't like Adrien, but come on. With a nose like that?? He should've had it remade or something. Anyway, I'd say it's a must-watch movie, if you can hold your pee for three hours.

That makes 30 movies this year. I still have a lot of catching up to do with Jamie's 36 movies this year (and counting, I think). Hope she won't watch the MMFF movies. Hehehe.

Hmmm, that's about it... 6 days to go!

You must be wondering what's the title about. I got it from Jerry Mguire (NSWTS*). Watched it a couple of nights ago. Good movie. Not a very funny one, but good anyway. Also watched Ghost just last night I think. Now Ghost, is a great movie, bearing in mind that it's a 1990-ish movie. The special effects weren't that great, but I told you, it was done a long time ago. Anyway, the plot is what makes it a very great movie. Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze (NSWTS*) did a great job on playing their roles. And Whoopi Goldberg is a riot. She is sooo good at making people laugh. Definitely a classic, one that you must watch or you're gonna be branded a loser. Hehehe. And a few hours ago, my sister and I watched Garfield, and Garfield said that line too, "You had me at hello," so there.

You had me at hello.

*NSWTS - not sure with the spelling. I'm too lazy to look for their correct spellings, so bear with me.

Pre-Christmas Post

Another term ended (almost)! But before I rant about this term's hurray's and boo's..

I had a freakin dream! Dammit, I had four 0.0's this term! I mean, what the fcuk?? Talk about nightmare. No, don't get me wrong. I'm not a grade-conscious person, but who would want that? I was just thinking of my mom, my scholarship and all..

Anyway, speaking of 0.0's, I, unfortunately, got one. He-who-must-not-be-named-one failed me. You know, the subject that I was planning to drop ages ago. So there, I got what I dreaded months ago. I knew this would happen if I didn't take precautionary measures. And I didn't. So there. I'm actually over with it now. I already told my mom the moment I was sure that I am really failed in it so I wouldn't have to carry the burden till the 20th, where we will receive our other course cards. But even if I am over with it, I'm still not happy about it. Being over is different from being happy. Who's happy with a 0.0 right? So my problem now is I have to talk to SFA and DOST for my scholarships. Hope they won't pull the plug on me.

DELETED!! That's what you get when you pester me.

Still have some school stuffs to do. A project and a summary paper for RELSFOR, a finals exam in GRAPHIX, and another in JPRIZAL. A few thesis stuff as well.

I actually wanted to blog weeks ago, but the past few weeks have been one hell of a roller coaster ride.

Last, last week, we had our first and last thesis defense. We weren't able to do our defense on the first opportunity because we passed our papers 5 or 10 minutes after the deadline, and they're really strict with deadlines, so we missed our first chance. On our defense day, we were sooo nervous, because if we fail in the defense, we fail our THES-1. One panelist (he-who-must-not-be-named-two) almost literally and figuratively cooked us. I was almost expecting a redefense verdict, even if there wasn't any redefense anymore. But luckily, we passed! Woohoo! And to think, our thesis adviser, Sir Bart, wasn't even there to back us up. Maybe it was my lucky-bloody-red long sleeves, the same one I wore when we did our defense last term. Hehehe.

At last, I got to watch my most awaited movie of the year (or at least after I saw it's trailer), Just Like Heaven. And was I soooo relieved that I didn't get disappointed.

Just Like Heaven, starring Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo, is one hell of a chick-flick. It's now my most favorite movie of all time, overthrowing A Walk To Remember who stayed in the number one spot since it was released. There are a lot of things that I love about this movie, and let me enumerate.

First, the actors. Reese and Mark (whoa, first name basis) are very good actors. They're very likeable, and they're both good-looking. They really portrayed their roles well, very convincing, very real, that it's almost surreal. I really felt the emotions that they were portraying. Oh, I can still remember it like it was yesterday.

Second, the plot. Well, to be honest, the first parts of the movie were very predictable (I'm trying to be discreet here so that I won't spoil the movie for you, because I'm really recommending this movie to you guys.), I won't mention the parts. But the twist at the end. Oh, the pain, the pain! I cried like there was no tomorrow! I was trying so hard to stop my tears from falling, seeing that JV was beside me (hehehe), but I miserably failed! My mouth was trembling from trying sooo hard to stop the tears. But I gave in. I wanted to wail and moan and cry my heart out, and I almost did. But there were other people. Hehehe. From that particular event in the movie, to the end, I was crying. I didn't cry that hard in AWTR and If Only, combined! Well, I am sensitive so not all of you will probably feel the same way after watching the movie. They, JV, Kaine, and Don, deny that they cried. Hehehe.

Third, the supporting actors. Well, only one, which is Jon Heder. I don't know the guy actually, and I didn't like him in the trailers, because he seemed like an antagonist. But he turned out to be very likeable as well, and funny. He's this psychic who can feel spirits, so I like him. Hehehe. We're in league. (I'm 99.9% parched here, I could really use a cow-lah!)

So there. Just Like Heaven. I didn't know that it was based on a novel by Marc Levy (I think the title's If Only It Were True, or something, which I'm planning to buy) till I saw it in the movie. I'm planning to buy an original copy of the movie once it comes out. We watched it again, but I didn't cry as hard as before.

Ahhhh, shet. I feel like crying just by thinking of the movie...

Hmmm... What else, what else...

Oh yeah, Nene won in Pinoy Big Brother. I guess she deserved it, seeing that she's really poor, and really a Filipino at heart. But I still love Cass more. Hehehe. She's so beautiful and sexy and hot. Hahaha!

So there. Can't think of anything to say anymore... Maybe later, something will pop out. Till next time! Cheerio!

14 days before Christmas! Ignore the countdown in the right. I didn't get to finish the other numbers. Hehehe.
