2:14 pm - proud absentee
reasons why i was absent in school today:

1. i went to the plyo gym in the addidas camp just 2 days ago, the workout was challenging and really fun but my thighs really hurt sooo much! well at least the pain is worth it, i mean-it wasn't the nakakasawang threadmill, weights and cosmic cycling i do in fitness first.

2. physical pain made worse yesterday when i walked around greenhills for two hours straight! i had to wait kasi for ate lian. oh,just to let you know, i walk really fast.. yep, it felt like a two-hour workout.

3. i'd rather stay home doing homeworks, studying for session tests and memorizing Dona Victorina monologue than sleeping in class. what's the point if i go to school? i'll just sleep and waste my time there. at least here at home, im productive.

4. okay, I studied for the Chemistry session test but I know i'll just fall asleep in the middle of the test. so i'll just take it on monday when i feel better.

5. it's a friday.. for sure, if i went to school, i'd be going around galle right after and probably be doing something i'm not supposed to do. resist temptation.

6. xavier prom tomorrow night. i can't be sick! i want to go out after prom, sayang naman the night, the prom, the date, the dress and all the glammy things that go with it if i go home early. diba? hehe.

7. i'm really not feeling well.. but fine, i am infected with tamaditis... great, there aint no cure.

*** i want to be a couch potato today, be a homebody! gosh, i can't believe i just said that! i can't even remember the last time i said that!

current music: shining DISCO KANDI

8:25 pm - pregnancy worries
No, i'm not pregnant and hell no did i get an abortion! it's just that for the month of january, everyone in my batch will have to be pregnant with 6 pounds of mongo beans for a day! that's a lot of beans, mabigat yun! it's a cl requirement... Marga was one of the first four who were pregnant today. she said it was so damn heavy! my barkada helped her go up and down the stairs, get food, get up and etc... kawawa nga eh... when i first saw her in that mongo bean preggy suit, her face was sooo sad and she kept on whining and saying "i'm not ready for this". she acted as if she really was pregnant! anyway, my classmates and i talked about what days we will be pregnant and it might turn out that the day i will get pregnant is also the day that i will give birth to a baby egg! (gosh, this sounds so weirdly ugh!) hahaha! now this egg is a requirement too! we have to take care of it and treat it as if it was alive. there are soooo many rules and dangers to having the egg but i guess it will be fun. im actually excited! too excited that i started thinking of baby names already! hehehe... i want my baby's name/s to be chocolate brands because... duh! im such a chocolate lover! by naming them chocolates, i'll love them even more! hahaha... anyway,i want to have twin boys but it's hard to find unique names for them... if it's a boy, i like the name milo or snickers... and then if it's a girl, i'll choose between hershey and hugs... there are other nicer unique names but these names have their own stories and backgrounds with me in it... hehehehe... okay, so that wasn't much of a problem... the next thing i have to worry about is... "who's the daddy?" what am i gonna write in my baby's birth certificate?! go ahead and laugh but there really is such a thing, we even have to make a baby book in the end... grrrr basta! i'll get a daddy! someday! hahaha!!!

current mood: worried

11:41 pm - batangas beach party!
i can't believe it's over... It was just the best trip out of town ever! "sporty" and "bonding" barkada and some ateneo h-boys were there with us... the beach was so beautiful, the water was clear, the sun was shining bright, the sand was clean and it was all perfect! we had our pictorials (we tried to make the place look like it was boracay hahaha), went swimming (showed-off our bikinis ehehe), played frisbee, football, board games... jamming sessions... some people went boating while some (including me!) had a massage... it was 350 bucks but it really worth it, as in! ofcourse the food was great, tita Connie's cooking and tito Raffy's barbequeing were praised much... Sobrang feeling na "seize the day!"...

Seize the day lang? e what happened that night? ahahahahaha!!! full of memories man! every dance, every drink, every smoke, every video, every pic, every wild thing that happened to us- priceless! the details are just... well.. too much... so i better stop now... ahahaha!

12:50 am - Thank God those weren't the flying kind
okay, so just 5 minutes ago, i went upstairs to the kitchen to get water... while going up the stairs, everything seemed fine, i wasn't afraid of the dark (yep, i'm a scaredy cat- you would be too if it's past midnight and you lived in balete drive) and i wasn't paranoid at all... then when i went inside the kitchen, i said "i just hope there are no cockroaches here"... ayyy guess what? seconds after i said that, i turned to my right to see not one, not even two but THREE cockroaches!!! ahhhh!!! grabe KADIRI! no words can describe how ugly and yucky those creatures are! (sorry God)... i couldn't shout for help beacuse if i did, my mom would get out of bed and tell me "what are you doing illegal now? it's late!" yadayadayada... so i just jumped really high as if i was on a trampoline... hey, i didn't know i could do that... i wish i could jump as high again but without having to see cockroaches please!.. Thank God those weren't flying cockroaches! If those things flew in front of me, i would have screamed so loud... and then cry (cry baby pa, anu ba yan hahaha)... I wont care anymore if i wake up my mom and dad (patay na!)or if the guard panics... as long as there are flying cockroaches, there is one frightened crazy me!

current mood: scared

3:43 pm - christmas and new year song
i decided to post this song coz this is the song that kept playing in my head last christmas and new year.. and it's really sweet hehehe..


TIME WILL REVEAL by boyz to men

What can I do?
To make you feel secure
Remove all your doubts
So that you'll know for sure that you're the apple of my eye, girl
Fulfillment of my dreams
Time, will show the value
Of just what you mean to me
More precious than silver
More precious than diamond rings or anything that I can give you
It wouldn't mean a thing
If you didn't have my love beside you there to guide you through
Well it is good to know you do

I know just how you feel
Well this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
That special love that's deep inside of us all will reveal in time

I tell you I love you, but you don't believe it's true
More precious than silver
More precious than diamond rings or anything that I can give you
It wouldn't mean a thing
If you didn't have my love beside you there to guide you through
But it is good to know you do, ahh

I know just how you feel
But this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
That special love that's deep inside of us will all reveal in time

current mood: relaxed
current music: time will reveal

HE THINKS I'M CRAZY for wanting to get a henna tatoo.. he thought i wasn't serious about it until i grabbed 50 bucks from his hand and told him.. "pa, donation naman for my henna".. and then he laughed! he just said with his suave voice.. "cge, bahala ka na".. so it was okay na kaso lang dinagdagan niya ng evil laugh in the end.. ayyy!!! HE REALLY THINKS I'M CRAZY!

SUAVE daddy ko yesterday.. kahit ano, ayos lang! hahaha.. angela and nathan bought toys, debbie bought lacoste shoes, i got a pink glambag (cute!), my mom and i got shirts from guess and ate lian bought nothing at all.. grabe, ngayon lang nangyari yon! my parents were so shocked kasi si ate lian talaga mahilig mag shop.. my dad did'nt want to buy anything.. next time na lang daw para mas madami and mas mahal bilihin niya.. ang yabang talga! hahaha... oh well, mr. suave daw siya eh hehe..

anyway, im in manila right now.. it was such a miracle that my family did'nt go home to tagaytay last night... but the miracle wont last long coz were leaving in about an hour.. yep, were going back to tagaytay.. grrrrrreat... but i guess it's okay.. we don't have maids right now in manila and our house is under renovation so it really would be better for us to stay there..

10:17 pm - can't wait!
steady lang ako this christmas.. grabe, i can't go out- can't do anything pasaway.. house arrest! that's right.. i think those are the two words i'll remember when i think of christmas 2004.. oh well, at least im saving paalams for sari's beach party and proms.. heeheehee... yes! i can't wait!

hmmm.. i really want to go na to the beach.. i actually made a mortal sin by trying on my bikini before christmas gatherings- kainan! shucks.. when i go to the beach on january 8 (halatang excited), i'll see every inch of fat that i gained from noche buenas.. yuck! hahaha.. but there's always a bright side.. being the pasaway that i am.. i'm makapal.. really.. hahaha! for sure i'll get fat after christmas but im still gonna pose FHM style with my fellow pasaway babies when we get to the beach! hahaha.. ay grabe..

what do i remember about the beach party last year? hmmm... oh yeah.. we were still innocent that we did'nt even wanna finish the giant bottles of tequila or touch the kaha of cold beer.. only two or three (from the 19 people who went) brought cigarettes.. nothing illegal.. not even pose FHM style.. grabe we were all so shy last year! but this year's gonna be different and i'm sure! coz the guys have FINALLY unleashed their wild sides and the girls.. well.. we just did'nt know it but we were wild pala all along.. and i'm not saying that because i am.. but the other girls really are! hahaha! so.. 2005 beach party- mostly Povedans and Atenista's - dancin, drinkin, some will go smokin but none will be go drugging.. hahaha! what a term.. can't wait! CAN'T WAIT!!! oh my gosh.. i just remembered.. i haven't made paalam! yikes! "stop dreamin nelly! paalam ka muna!"

11:17 pm - history of linnel and her journals... wehhh...
wow.. i have a livejournal! hahaha.. wala lang.. it thrills me coz it's new.. i don't even know how to change the colors and the styles but who cares.. first entry muna, learn later hehe.. anyway, i never really had a journal.. all the journals that i once had existed just because it was required.. oh wait, i had one serious journal pala when i was in first year.. but there is no such thing as privacy in my home.. with three snoopy sisters and a careless brother (who i all love but annoy me),the contents of my journal will always excite them and later on become tabloid stories for them.. i dont know how they were able to read it.. i mean, it was inside a bag and the zippers were locked.. oh well. only God knows.. what can i do? nabasa na, buking na.. coz of that, i never wanted to start a journal again.. ano ba yan ang babaw.. sabaw na kasi eh.. hehehe..

current mood: silly
