clean sheets :)

i changed our beddings today!!! feels clean again. i just wish the vacuum cleaner is working. the bedbugs are killing me.

there are some entries that i want to share here than my other more public blog. i guess this blog is much private than other 1. :) i was speaking with fatima earlier and sharing to her my imaginations. hahahaha. it's quite interesting so i decided to blog it.

i was imagining my life in the future... this is my dream house. a very relaxing place. quiet.. with wonderful neighbors, nice weather... when i have free time, i'll spend time drinking lemonade in the porch, reading a nice, feel good book. :)

Now, let me give you a tour inside my beautiful home...

Welcome to my cozy little bedroom. :) i love the big windows and the color of the walls... see those lamps? they're my night lights. i love to read before i sleep so they'll be really useful.

this is my lovely kitchen. i loooove cooking. i can cook pasta all day!!! there's an oven, too. so i can bake whatever i want!

and that's my living room. :)

this is my dining room. i looove the really big glass windows. it's like dining oudoors. :)

Friends Going away

my closests friends are leaving the country!!! yesterday, ert and i went to glorietta. she'll be going to indonesia next week... im going to miss her. mygz, of course has been in singapore for a long time now.. :) oh well... it's nice being at the prime of your life. 25 years old... the year of being 25 is i guess the time when you really reach the dreams you really love.... i just got delayed. haha... oh well.

hrmmm.... i have decided. i will leave my teeth alone... i'll just do what the doctors say about it... if they find nothing, fine. live it that way. i just hope that i'll have 1 doctor. i dont want to change doctors anymore!

A new website

as you can see, my profile has changed! well, that's actually for my new site. cant fuigure out how to separate the two. but that's fine... :)

Get Extra Cash Online

i've been going through the internet all day finding online jobs to have extra cash without being employed in a real company which will be more convinient for me since im still in college (2 years to go!)... i came across with this site http://www.emailcashpro.com/?r=nanaxiu.. it's pretty interesting coz if this thing works, i can get paid without lifting a finger. and without any cash outs! hrmmm.. well, i'll keep you posted with whatever happens. haha.

feeling ko may masamang manyayari sakin. sana hindi naman ako mamatay. ewan ang weird... sana walang manyari sa kahit kanino. ay nako

random

this is one of the newbies. was born late jan 2008. cute, eh? :) that's my leg. haha.

this was Coogee before he died. he looks ok in the pic, right? as if he's just sleeping. most of the cats that we had who died looked terrible. Got really sad when he died. he was a fighter! he was the biggest cat we ever had. :( oh well...

he's the manager of the store shabu shabu resto in atc. he reminds me of Gyun Yoo of the koreanovela in channel 7. *hihi pogi!*

i can't describe the feeling of my k-9. it's a bit sensitive, but not too much and it's kinda tender. i dunno. i went to my makati dentist yesterday and he made me mouth guards, upper and lower. that's 5 gran! but i dont mind really. well, i asked him if i need braces. he said my teeth look fine. so that means i dont need it. i dunno, i just want to resolve this ugly experience of mine. LADIES AND GENTS, BOYS AND GIRLS, take care of your teeth!!!! dont get me wrong, i brush my teeth all the time. it just never occured to me that clenching and grinding at night while sleeping really can damage your teeth no matter how strong you think it is.

i never thought i had teeth problems. geez...

anyway, this morning, we had our Intramuscular injection demo. my professor gave me a 90% grade. that's good enough. knowing her, she never gives high marks. the return demo was smooth, though my hands were a bit shaky.

my partner hurt me. i know that distilled h2o is really painful, but the pain was prolonged because she got rattled when she got criticized by the professor. i got really nervous because my classmates got rattled as well when they saw the hub filled with blood. the needle went in different angles which tore my muscle tissues.... im having anxiety problems this past month, so when i heard them almost yelling at my partner, i felt like fainting... my other classmates said i was really pale. but see, that's fine. we are in school to learn... good thing, im not an angry person... my arm feels a little sore but, it's ok now.

my partner cried! haha. i quite know how she was feeling. like everyone was watching, thinking bad stuff about you.... tsk tsk... she'll get over it.

my head hurts already. i've been watching this new korean telenovela on dvd. it's called 'Coffee Prince'.. Koreans are really known for their cuteness and silliness.

Christmas break is almost over for me. Classes starts on Jan. 7. Geez, I haven't done much. I didn't go on a trip or anything... but ate rochie and i went to the science discovery center in MOA. it's an amusement park full of science in it.. haha... (duh..haha)... We had picture takings, just the two of us.. i wish our cousins would have come. i wish people in the states were here. it would've been fun. but it was fun with my sister.

Coogee.. i think he feels much better now. but he still can' walk straight. poor little cat... his hind legs are all bloody and swollen... we thought of putting him in a wheel chair for disabled cats...

Pan and Laira.. the twins, they're getting bigger and bigger. they are much more sociable than before. Mary and Meow2x are doing ok too... they're the mother of the house.

before the classes start, i'll try to go out more.. im becoming a zombie already.

NEW YEAR!!! (weeeh to 2008)

2008

Ang bilis ng panahon. 2008 na!

Ang gulogulo sa Pakistan. Patayan sila ng patayan. Pinatay nila si Benazir Bhutto... tsk tsk.... hrmmm, ang pangit ng kabaong nya. ganun ba talaga, kahon lang?

:(

Akala ako makaka-pag- capping ako ngayung sem na 'to. Kasama na nga ako sa mga rehearsals, yun pala baka next year... huhuhu... nakakalungkot. mamaya kakausapin ako ni dean alpay... :(

tsssk.... ang luwag ng sched ko this sem. parang hindi ako sanay... ayoko naman magreklamo kasi next sem sobrang magiging busy na ako. sana kasi take-all-the-subjects you want dito sa CDH.... sana ni-credit nalang nila yung mga values ko.. pareho lang naman yun ng mga theology... hrmmm mejo iba pero same naman ang concept.

searching

ang tagal narin ng blog nato! grabe. imagine noong 2004 pa. e pano kaya kung hindi nabura yung blog-city ko, relic na yung mga mga nasulat kong yun? hahaha.. pano ang naka-inspire saakin na magsulat noon ay si chinito_pogito... wala narin shang blog ngayun dahil mashado nang laganap ang pagbblog... jologs na kung baga... pero para saakin depende parin naman... ang mga taong nagbblog sa friendster o sa multiply lang naman ang natuturingang jologs.. hehe,, no offense sa mga tao may friendster at multiply dahil ako meron ding mga accts na ganun... tho minsan lang ako magsulat ngayun.... sa totoo lang nagbblog parin naman ako pero hindi na mashado online... mas madalas na sa papel... old style.
anywei, nagpapasalamat din naman ako sa mga online networking dahil sa pamamagitan nito ay nakakasagap parin ako ng mga balita mula sa outside world... lalo na ngayun wala akong social life.... kanina nga, nakita ko ang profile ni tristan bael sa friendster... hommies na sha ngayun... iba talaga pag nagiging laking america ang mga tao.... kaklase ko sha nung elementary, 3rd grade yata... then nagtungo sha sa australia (?) . then back to the phils at naging classmate sa sci-tech... matangkad ang gwapo noon. hindi naman mashado nagbago ang mukha nya. at ganun parin ang ichura ng kanyang kuko sa daliri.. ganun parin pero mas nagmature nga lang. meron narin shang kasintahan ngayun... haha.. natatandaan ko noong mga panahong pinagpapantashahan no mex yung lalaking yun. hihihi... ngayun very american na ang aura nya.... napapansin ko, si biboy, malapit narin maging ganun! very western...

hrmmm... naisip ko lang... pag may mga klasmate kaya ako na makita ang profile ko, hindi kaya magbabago ang impression nila sakin? hindi naman ang ang pinakasikat sa klase... ang loser nga ng dating ko nun e... batang bato na walang pakialam sa mundo... pero shempre, habang dumadaan ang panahon, mas nagkakaroon ka ng muwang sa mundong pumapaligid sayu, at binagago ka nito... hinuhubog... ganun ang nangyari saakin... hrmmm.... napapaisip lang... minsan gusto ko sila makita ulit... mga kaklase ko noon.... gusto ko rin makasalamuha at kamustahin ang 'not so popular' kids noon... balita ko nga successful na sila ngayun, katulad ni van... biruin mo nga naman, ngayun, accountant na sha sa isang bangko...(nabalitaan ko kay kuya nino na schoolmate ko pala ngayun sa cdh)... si kuya nino, matatapos na sa kurso nya... magiging nurse na sha at mangignibang bansa narin... nakakatuwa rin. :) gusto ko malaman ang storya nilang lahat!

at sha nga pala, sila emem, ang bestfriend ko nung hs, nakatira na sa magandang bahay ngayun! parang ayala alabang.. ang daming nagbago! daming nagimprove sa buhay ng mga tao. si cel, happy na sa pamilya nya. si vernon, asa singapore at nagaaral, at si lala, may boypren na! oha!

may ni reresearch pa akong isang naging classmate, pero wala, hindi ko makita.

calambeno

i live in calamba, laguna, where the great jose rizal once lived. i love it here. no pollution, there's fresh air, a lot of trees... but for some reason, i dont seem to get along with people in laguna... i dont know why!

number 0480 B

election day.

i wore my yellow vigan shirt and my blue board shorts today. i brought my house keys, my voter's id, and the list of people who i shall be voting... my sister and i then drove off to the school where it will take place.

crowded, the street was! but it was not that stressful...

what stresses me out is that i lost my voter's id! i feel soo bad earlier. i should've looked for it. :( i didnt realize my pocket has a hole in it. darn.

tsk,.

EVAN ALMIGHTY'S WAPAK!

Wow! nagbblog nanaman ako... kelangan lang ng drainage ng overflowing random thoughts. kulang na kasi sa social life. hahaha. anywei... nakapanood ako ng Evan Almighty at totoo.... hindi binibigay saatin ang lahat ng gusto natin pero binibigyan tayo ng oportunidad na makuha o makamit ang gusto natin.

isang araw... 3 years ago (more or less)... may naiisip akong tao... ang pangalan nya ay joseph olivar.... si joseph olivar na naging kaklase ko sa christian school international nuong 1st and 2nd quarter ng highschool... mukhang mabait at talentado din. (maypagka autistic, dahil madalas shang pumunta sa isang sulok para mag guitara).. ang da best pa don, mukhang hindi nya napansin ang kadiring mga allergy ko noon... simpleng 'hi' 'hello', nakatutuwang pakinggan mula sa kanya.

...3 years ago... parang mantra kong sinasabi sa sarili na gusto ko shang makita ulit... HAPON... sa tapat ng starbuck 6750, nakakita ako ng isang lalaki na may mahabang, kulot na buhok... sabi ng utak ko,'KAMUKHA NYA!!!... baka SHA NGA YUN!!!'

=sigh= ito ang mga pagkakataong tinukoy ko kanina.... kung sinabi kong, 'joseph???' or.. 'do i know you from somewhere?'.. edi sana nagkatutuo na sana ang munting hiling ko... sayang ang oportunidad...

ngayun, minamantrahan ko ulit.

sheesh... eto pa...

nung banda banda pa kami ng BP nuon, nakakasalamuha namin ang mga mejo sikat... hindi... mga sikat talagang mga banda banda... kasama dito ang rivermaya.... sa mga music festival tulad ng fete delamusique, nakakajamming namin sila.... jologs mang pakinggan pero parang may pagtingin ako sa isang miyembro doon na nagngangalang japs (bahista)... (ng rivermaya a... hindi yung kabanda ko)...kanina lang nabasa ko na may bagong chikiting na vocalist ang rivermaya.... shempre ako naman si research sa internet... ng nakita ako ang friendster at myspace ni japs... sabi ko, 'ay, parang normal na tao pala sha'... di ko naman sinasabi na abnormal sha pero, kung baga, ang impression ko, hindi sha rockstar maniac ... anywei, sana nuong, rockstar pa ako (yak as if) e nakausap ko man lang sha... arrrgh... nakakautal kasi pagkumakausap ka ng idol mo o kahit na sinong sikat na tao.

mahiyain.. torpe... pweh!

nung una ko makita si japs... MTV music tour, sponsored ng pepsi... naka braided pigtails sha... cute cute nya nun... yeehee!

moral lesson: tulad nga ng sabi ni mygz, 'SEIZE THE DAY!'

p.s never akong naging rockstar... well... mejo lang... hindi joke lang.. wink wink.

i should get out

seriously, i've got to get out of this place! sembreak will be over in a week... and here i am, loathing! doing nothing. i should've goe to the beach or something... +sigh+... i just miss the outdoors. :( just like what i always say... 'gusto kong mamundok!'.

ngayun, kasabihan nalang yan.

yikes.

im in a prone position, only my elbows are supporting my upper torso so that i can type... soo, what can i say. im bored to death. yes, i am! you know what i did today? i watched evan almighty (nicely done. very meaningful) and the zodiac (oh, it was indeed a looong movie) in my sister's laptop. i keep my YM open so that i could still get a glimpse of who are online just in case i need someone to talk to. seee.... im really bored...

i have sinned today (actually, it started yesterday)... i bought a small triangualar box of toblerone... the white one. i told my self i'll eat one piece ( 1 triangle) a day... guess what... i ate the whole thing!!! i wish i wont swell too much. it's a darn white chocolate...

i went to school yesterday, took my stuff from joanna, went to the registrar's office, asked something about getting my copy of grades... after that, i didnt know what to do, so i went to the book sale and looked for a cookcook called 'aut bee's mayberry cookbook'. i thought i'd get a copy with a lesser price. then, i thought of texting my good friend, connie. which i did. went at starbucks, chatted and we went around the mall, harrizon plaza. i havent been there for quite a time now...

haha. just want to share of what i did yesterday,,,

i have a tip for those people who would like to get thin... watch tv. forget food exists.... sleep... before you know it, you're as thin as a toothpick.. haha. just an idea.

gotta go for now. i promise, next time i write /type here, ill make sure it's something significant. coz this is not. haha.. :)

signing off.

i normally don't write in blogs that often. but, hey i have the time to do it today. 1st semester is over. after next week, school starts again. i'm kind of nervous coz i don't want to spend my second sem in EAC. that school has too much issues. and i dont feel safe in manila. im still weighing things.... i made some of options where to transfer (either in CDH or UMAK). UMAk has a good reputation re: BSN. they have this program called REGIS for second coursers...the thing is, it's too far away from home and it's complicated to go there. it look overpopulated... i dunno. but if i study there, i dont have to get unnecessary subjects. i can finish the program in 2 years. in CDH, it's quite convinient coz the school is 10 mins away from home. but i have to take some subjects that i think i dont need! i can finish it in 2 1/2 years... so how's that? cant decide! waah!!!

anyway, if indeed, i'll be transferring to another school, then, i will surely miss my good friends in EAC. i will miss eating turon., the 30 peso french fries in a cup, my noisy classmates, the good teachers, the really bad teachers, the maze like corridors,the library, the olympic-sized swimming pool and the smell of kalamares around the area. what i wont be missing are the pollution and the uniform. ok so that's it. haaaay. God please help me decide once and for all.

saya ulit

natututwa talaga ako sa mga sandaling pagsasama namin nila ert at mygz... ngayun nadagdagan pa dahil mukhang madalas ko narin makikita si tin bats! sa makati na kasi sha nagwwork. sa wakas at narealize na rin nya ang kanyang freedom.... teacher parin sha pero koreans na ang tinuturuan nya... si ert, siguro after a year ko pa ulit makikita kasi babalik na ulit sha sa ateneo de naga. si mygz anjan lang sa makati pero baligtag ang oras! at ako naman, walang oras para sa mga gimik dahil magaaral ako buing magdamag.... therefore, hindi rin pala kami magkikitakita! omigosh.. ok... pero, just the same, sa saglit na pagkikitakita namin ay nakakagaan ng loob. kahit sobrang tagal nyong hindi nagtagpo, ganun parin sila... parang kahapon mo lang sila hindi nakita!

happy happy talaga.... si ayi lang ang wala. :( oh well.
