shakin'
a michadik friend posted this and i thought it was so cute. i miss dancing and performing. i guess after school you can't really perform anywhere unless you're a professional dancer. but i really miss dancing talaga. i could also use the exercise.

csi guy and the half-blood mascarinas
i've been very busy these past few days, sleeping late, waking at the afternoons. i read the 6th harry potter book, watched the 2-hour season ender of csi: vegas, watched more of those soaps, series and lifestyle programs, etc. i did a lot, sure, but none of them i could definitely say was productive.
i finished harry potter and the half blood prince in approximately 24 hours. i was supposed to borrow the book from my blockmate and friend rhay but her boyfriend wasn't finished with it yet when we last met. fortunately, although with guilt (with a capital G) gnawing off me once in a while, one of my friends online had a (most likely unauthorized) soft copy of the novel which she uploaded, so i got a hold of it. so much for the NO TO PIRACY concert i attended two weeks ago at eastwood. honestly, i'm not even sure whether it was the real full edition, but it had the details from rhay's spoilers i was reluctant to hear but did hear, so i'm assuming it was the real one.
i found the book more bearable than the 5th installment, more exciting even. partly because harry was not as angst-ridden as before and because in book 5, sirius, my favorite character died, breaking my heart. i actually cried while immersed on that scene, and i wanted so much to cast every curse on the killer, bellatrix. anyhow, book 6 also had a lot of romance stirring finally amongst the characters. i caught myself smiling while reading a couple of times. i'm really a sucker for feeling kilig. the unexpected pairings will really kind of lift your spirits. you will also realize that harry and the gang are already grown ups in the book. the downsides of harry's battle, well, it must be either because i already knew it from the spoilers or that i've had been immune to the disappointments from book 5 that didn't feel that down while reading. also, it was needless to say that the ending was hanging. another year, years maybe, of waiting for the grand finale of harry potter's world. on the other hand, i'll be waiting for the handsome daniel radcliffe in the theaters for the fourth potter movie.
speaking of waiting, i've been on the watch for the brilliant csi: vegas season ender directed by none other than quentin tarantino. as you may know, i've been giving myself large doses of the three csi shows in axn every week, and this season ender was not something i'd be happy to miss. i've been having these fantasies of being a forensic chemist, though i'm really bad with dead people and chemistry.
i was actually getting scared on how morbid the episode would be considering tarantino's flair in making audiences really uncomfortable with amputating body parts. just watch the two kill bills and pulp fiction for vivid reference. plus, i don't really want anybody from the crew to die (i knew nick stokes was the one in trouble on the episode and the others have to find him before he dies). amongst the three csi shows, vegas was my favorite, not only because it was the original, but also because i find it more realistic, the characters were also more easy to relate to and to believe that they knew all those stuff they know. and also because i love the dorky, corky and adorable former lab chemist and now field detective greg who, as his colleague told him at last night's epi was getting more trendier as time goes by (and handsomer too).
the screenplay and concept was also by tarantino so there were signature tarantino black and white shots, satirical quips, and the weird songs. and i wasn't wrong about the morbid parts too, there was a guy who blasts himself to pieces and nick getting covered and bitten by fire ants and oh, did i mention nick dreaming that he was being autopsied with the coroners playing around with his internal organs? real cute, huh? but as always, the case was solved and stokes was rescued. i was touched seeing grissom, catherine, sarah, warrick and greg really emotionally tortured at nick's fate and doing all they can, though panicky, teary-eyed and all. over-all i had a good-time. as you can see i'm a sucker for happy endings too.
p.s.
i got a call from accenture yesterday, which was a big thorn off of my chest. no, i'm not hired yet, but i'm hoping i'll soon be. after a massive self-doubt and worthlessness issue, i finally got the second interview. God is really funny and wise.
also, i've put up a rant absorber at my posts so you can comment on each. rants are welcome everytime. :D

airhead/bad karma
Thursday, July 21, 2005
as usual, my life has spun out of control. lately, i've been immersing myself with alot of nonsense which might explain why i've been such an airhead poster this past weeks. plus i've been either in front of the boob tube or my laptop, clark, fixing my dad's birthday video tribute each day for a minimum of 10 hours.
i've picked up a couple of new tv favorites along the way though:
tru calling, one tree hill, csi: las vegas, miami and ny, and loads more.
i'm really not so lucky in one aspect of my life nowadays though. either i'm the one who's got the problem or i just let slipped alot of things i shouldn't have. bad karma, i call it.
alot of crazy, undeniably distasteful things have happened to the philippines and it seems i'm the only one with a blog without any commentary on it. i feel so stupid about it. being this vocal about my love for my country but my blog is 99%on the english language. another thing is, i really am being so negative about this country's issues, so pessimistic. where's the faith, right? all i know is that no matter what happens i would still be proud of my country, my nationality. i love the philippines and i love being a filipino so much i always get into fights with my mom about it.
you see, my mom's ultimate bliss is to live the american dream. to stay there for good, buy all sorts of state-side stuff, the works. i couldn't entirely blame her for that dream, our grandmother and most of her siblings are living there, it's just understandable why she badly wants to be there. plus, in our country's state who wouldn't want to stay out of here for good? but then again wherever you go, you would still be a filipino whether you like it or not.

hottest on and off screen love pairs in my opinion
Wednesday, July 13, 2005
this will be a bit cheesy. but i will be enjoying doing this today so what the heck? it'll be for my own blogging pleasure and it could be for yours too.
pair no. 1
star wars untouchables: hayden christensen and natalie portman
they're both hot, plus they look really good together. i haven't seen episode three yet but their fresh tandem in episode two gave me sweet dreams for weeks. both are talented actors too who, unlike most of the actors in their generation prefer unconventional roles and do well in it. don't they just look young and fresh here?
pair no. 2
unexpected stand-out stars: joseph bitangcol and michelle madrigal
obviously i'm a big fan of theirs (heck, i even made a fictional love piece about them aside form the fact that i'm an official inhabitant of their PEx threads). the thing that drew me to their loveteam from the start was their undeniable, radiating-from-afar chemistry. both products of a talent search which got them eliminated before they reach the top five, they are now enjoying more screen time than those you got in the finals. physically and skill-wise they complement each other, getting the attention of veteran actors and bigtime producers and directors. do i need to mention they look cute together?
pair no. 3
meteor garden could have beens: hua ze lei and shan cai
this pair was my former fixation, before pair no. 2. but this was frustrating since the characters in the series didn't end up with each other. the two meteor garden series did have lots of 'kilig' scenes with lei and shan cai with it though, and with kissing scenes, no less. i also love the true friendship stuff they have going on, but then lei continues on being the martyr that way. then, i just satisfied my self with the beautifully written fan fictions where they end up with each other. sad, but true.
pair no. 4
smallville's super-human beauties: tom welling and kristin kreuk
she's an exotic asian-dutch-canadian beauty. he's an all-american hottie with the mega-watt smile and boyish charm. when you put them together on the small screen, they sizzle. too bad they've been trying to pair them to different characters now. but i still have hope since they're the original love pair.
and finally, pair no. 5!
supernova hot mr. and mrs. to be: brad pitt and angelina jolie
hot, hot, hot! need i say more? this surprising hit tandem is sexiness and power epitomized. their chemistry is so intense i couldn't handle it. a lot of people couldn't handle it, let alone put into writing how much they felt this two were like two gods bound by destiny to be together. well, a bit exaggeration there, but still. this pair is just too hot for words.
SPECIAL QUIP- SCARIEST PAIR
couch-wrecking-insane-sation: tom cruise and katie holmes
never mind the age gap, i could have given them a thumbs up but then they really are scaring me. why the need to act so nuts? i have heard that people can get very crazy dur to 'love', but on international television? you have got to be kidding me. plus, both parties apparently have nothing to talk about in their interviews but their new-found loves. sickening, right? pardon my opinion, but i'm seeing this as a really bad publicity stint. but if i'm wrong, then it must be, as scary as it may seem, a real-deal, true tomkat love affair.
hehe look at what i found...
they're named tom and katie too... funny coincidence! hehe. i'm evil...
anyways, i need to go now. hope you enjoyed this post. mwah!

sojourn to life
i've been gone quite a while. i could say it's because i've been too attached to my bum lifestyle, my mother had to (as she always had) yak me out of it. so i left home, offended and determined to make them miss me and let them know they've hurt me. so as early as it was for me to leave for school and board exam review, i did and straight into the arms of my loving friends who have always been their for me. they let me stay at their apartment for 4 days and 3 nights and helped me recuperate by making my stay there full of fun and joy. in the course of my break from the bum lifestyle, i've helped in preparing for an elaborate surprise birthday party for one of my friends' boyfriend; i've been to the preliminary interview for Accenture (amazingly i passed the test and have packed my formal clothes without expecting, but wishing, that i'd get at least an interview) ; and i've spend some quality time with my friends and kel.
the aftermath however, was phenomenal. think about a home full of friendliness and love, a top of the line digi-vidcam from Sony (which i was praying for to have before my dad's birthday this friday so i can make a mini-movie surprise for him; but i didn't expect for the cam to be this hi-tech and great) and a lot of other good stuff i've learned from my break. i'm also going to have an employment test with procter and gamble this wednesday so i can say things are looking up.
the following is part of the webcam scandal part 3. kel and i have been so addicted with taking webcam pictures because i don't have a camera phone and a digital camera before now plus we just like fooling around. i just feel bad i didn't get to upload the super fun videos on time. it was pure riot. you can see my still so curly hair here too. it has been a while since i had pics on my journal so enjoy! :D

happy 10th month!
Monday, July 4, 2005
yep, yesterday was our 10th monthsary. but we didn't get to celebrate it together because my kel's at school. we were together last sunday for some yfc activities but that doesn't count as a monthsary date does it? well i'm just happy i got to spend an ample amount of quality time with him. and that we didn't fight one bit that day.
i feel so stupid not to be happy. right now i'm happy. like i said, i think i must have a discontentment curse or something. i know he so loves me. i can feel it. and i'm so in love with him too. never felt like this before, really. i mean giving all the love i have to one person. to my prince charming. kel.

rollercoaster ride
Sunday, July 3, 2005
this week has been with helluva rollercoaster emotions swinging in and out my system. i can't say it's solely due to PMS. or the fact that i haven't done anything productive the past week (well, except for my problem set in inorganic chemistry), i just stayed home or went to the mall. other than that, nada. i've had an overdose of teleserye/fantaseryes/reality shows this past week.
part of the rollercoaster experience were my feelings for kel. it hasn't subsided nor lessened or whatever. i just don't feel that happy. like being 100% in love yet only 75% happy. maybe there's something wrong with me. that i'm cursed or something to feel discontented with everything for the rest of my life.
well, to tell you the truth i just want to be treated like a princess. every normal girl feels that way every now and then, right? well if not, then maybe my out-of-touch-with-reality-stuck in fairytales-and-romanticism-sh*t side is getting out of it's shell for the nth time in my almost twenty-one years of existence. it's sickening, but i guess it's true. damn those dream dates i watched recently in a reality show here in the philippines for making me think men can come up with those romantic dates.
i'm still wondering when the prince charming in my dear kel would resurface and save this damsel in distress from the dragon that is threatening to posses her. i hope it would be real soon.
