I did say on my last post that I'm going fix my life and actually, I did.<br />
I was able to live, to love, travel from time to time, have a job with a decent pay and now, I've decided to go back to college on the next school year (which is on June).<br />
It's nice to live here in Cebu, I've experienced a lot of things (except Sinulog which is a bummer) and learned a lot specially from the people around me.<br />
There are always set backs of course since the language most people use here is Bisaya, and I felt out of place especially with a group of people. I just drift away sometimes... And this is the reason why I decided to just go back to Manila next month. It's hard to learn if you can't understand them, and for some reason I'm not really interested to learn Bisaya.<br /><br />
But anyway, the reason for the title is that I wanted to tell that this might be my last blog here.<br />
I dunno, after going on hiatus for a few months I realize I can do more things, more productive things if I'm offline. It really sucks I'm not a multi-tasker. I just can't do what others do, able to go out have fun in daytime and surf the net and blog at night. I'm better off when I just focus on a few things, and I decided to just focus to my work and my relationship, and when I go back to Manila; focus on studies and drawings again (I really wish I could, I haven't done anything for a very long time). I should just go online to do research and get inspiration. Yeah, I do feel nice whenever I finish a blog or article specially when somebody comments but really, I'm not much of a writer (I wish I was though). And I realize that most of the popular blogs around here are like ads trying to be a personal blog. I dunno, maybe I'm just following the wrong blogs...<br />
<br />
It was nice while it lasted. More than a year of blogging here in Blogger, and I've done nothing much. Of course I won't delete my account, I still like to read on blogs here from time to time. So that's bye bye typing bunch of words that don't mean much, and thank you for all the people who had the time to read my blogs!

Secrets<br />
<br />
I like keeping secrets.<br />
It makes me feel safe.<br />
<br />
I've want to runway, and maybe this time I might be able to do it.<br />
I am old enough to move out my mother's house, the problem is if I have the strength to face this cruel world.<br />
But there's this voice saying to me that I should it, or else I won't be able to make my dreams come true.<br />
And I know my mother will not allow it, unless I secretly runaway.<br />
<br />
I've had secret love affairs.<br />
I always had...<br />
From odd to more serious love stories that no one will ever know.<br />
Too many hearts are broken, both mine and theirs.<br />
But still I fall in love so easily.<br />
And there's this one person, a person who reached out his hand...<br />
Now I think I will run away with him.<br />
<br />
I've always kept my dreams to myself.<br />
For the sake of being a good daughter for my family.<br />
But now I don't want to live that life anymore.<br />
My mother said I have stopped thinking about my future, that I have stopped going for my dreams.<br />
But no!<br />
When I runaway, the beginning towards my dreams and goals will start in motion.<br />
<br />
But then what's keeping me from all of my dreams is myself.<br />
<br />
<br />
I hate keeping secrets.<br />
It makes me feel more alone.<br />

It's been almost a month since the last time I posted here. I've been on the rut and I'm trying to fix myself and get a new life. Hopefully the end of October, I'll be able to take care of everything and find work.<br />
Anyway, just to kill time and to make up for the weeks lost....<br />

<div>
Anyway, I'm lagging behind this Mori challenge because the next question is kinda hard to answer because I'm not really a mori girl, I'm just mori-inspired. Well whatevs~</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Day 6 – 10 things you can’t live without in mori.</span></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Like I said, I'm not a mori girl but these are the things that keep me mori-inspired.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. My Dairy scrapbook. </div>
<div>
<a href="http://blog.vanillerygarden.com/">Vanillery Garden</a> suggested to do this (an online mori/self help class) so I could appreciate myself and my life. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. My Laptop</div>
<div>
My only source of mori information and other inspiration because I don't have any mori friends.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. My cream and white (lacey) tops/dresses, or anything clothes that can be mori</div>
<div>
I only have a few mori-styled clothes but I love those clothes even before I started to like mori girl.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
4. My late granma's old stuff.</div>
<div>
She left us a lot of vintage bags, laces, used stamps, pins, old styled sandals, and other things I could use for my scrapbook, and even for sewing (if only I have a sewing machine). I miss my granma. :(</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
5. Japanese Magazine Scans.</div>
<div>
I prefer SEDA over Spoon magazine even if it's the official Mori Magazines. I dunno, I find the clothes too unique in Spoon and not really applicable in everyday life. I want clothes that I could find on a regular store and make it mori style. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
6. Indie Rock Music</div>
<div>
Music is my mood setter, when I was into video games and mmorpgs, I prefer rock songs especially the 'emo' ones. When I became highly addicted to anime music, my playlist was filled with nothing but anime OST and japanese music. When I shifted to Lolita, I started to love visual kei and all the gory, screaming, cursing-like-no-tomorrow, kind of songs (I also started to like Lady Gaga, heheheh). Now that I like Mori girls, I prefer indie rock music, especially the laid back ones. The one thing that will never change is my life for Coldplay! <3</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
7. A vintage or even faux-vintage accesories</div>
<div>
It's a great accent to more regular clothes! The good thing is vintage stuff are becoming popular again so they are not so hard to find anymore, even though they're not really vintage, heheh...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
8. My wavy hair.</div>
<div>
I really have straight hair but last month I permed to create soft curls, now the curls have became big waves which I like. The best thing about my curls is that they look natural compared to regular perming. Plus, I don't have to brush my hair everyday, now that's going au naturale! Lol!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
9. Plants at our house</div>
<div>
Me and my mom are depressingly bad gardeners (at least my mom tries) but it's great that we still have plants in front of our house in this polluted city.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
10. Travelling</div>
<div>
Sometimes for school, sometimes for family outings, I just want to travel anywhere, seeing mountains, bluer skies, new places...</div>

The one who created Vanillery Garden. Probably one of the best Mori Girls (for me)<br />
on the net. She's more focused on the lifestyle and attitude than the style,<br />
which is what I love. I do want to dress like a mori girl but I don't want to be superficial<br />
and too focus on the material aspect of the lifestyle.</td></tr>

Not a mori girl, but definitely living a Mori girls' dream. To live near a forest,<br />
surrounded by a handful of friends that you grew up with. Always dressing in old styled clothes,<br />
living a simple life.<br />
Though I doubt she really lives a simple life since she has the most massive following I'll ever feature here,<br />
and she seems to go to the city once in a while for fashion updates, and such.</td></tr>

has lots of artsy friends, and drinks too much coffee and milk tea! Lol!<br />
So why does she inspire me? Well, even though she's not my ideal mori girl<br />
she's kinda introduced me to the fashion.<br />
I know some of her friends and they were following her blogs, so I followed it too<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">Oh my, I'm such a irresponsible blogger! I did said in my last post that I would set my priorities. I fixed my old my laptop and it's running smoothly again!

Having a lot of accounts for different websites is a bad, bad idea!<br />
Now my time will be eaten by these websites!<br />
<br />
<br />
I always crave to learn and find something new, but of course there's this information overload. I cannot take in much of those beautiful blogs, crafts, DIY, fashion at one sitting. That's why I always avoided registering to <a href="http://lookbook.nu/">Lookbook</a> and I stopped using my Tumblr. I have so little time, and I should have less time on the internet and have a better lifestyle...<br />
<br />
Then again, I've always been a computer person. Ever since a kid, I always been in front of the computer whether it's playing online games or social networking. It never affected my studies when I was in gradeschool and highschool. But now it became my escape, especially at college since your not really forced to be friends with others unlike high school. And because I hate my course a lot, I'm almost always in the internet because it's the only place that makes me happy.<br />
<br />
But...<br />
<br />
I have to make priorities.<br />
I should be more focus on finishing my thesis, instead of roaming in the world wide web.<br />
I should be doing more meaningful things for myself instead of reading on other people's achievements.<br />
I should learn how to manage my time learn and not to procrastinate.<br />
<br />
But I can't...<br />
<br />
There's always this force that brings me down: my course, my thesis, my mom, our apartment... I dunno...<br />
Sometimes I wish I was just a housewife so I would only worry about my family and the house... And have quality time for myself when they went off to school and work. But of course that doesn't work that way...<br />
<br />
Back then I always thought that money will solve anything. I think that was my driving force that's why I always had good grades back when I was younger. But when I started college, reality hit me.<br />
<b>Money wasn't worth the pain of not doing what you love to do...</b><br />
<br />
Sigh... Maybe this is just <a href="http://www.thesite.org/healthandwellbeing/wellbeing/lookingafteryourself/quarterlifecrisis">quarterlife crisis.</a><br />
<br />
I've actually met some people who have this 'crisis'. They say once I get near 30, I will feel better about myself because I know myself more. And once you hit 40, you'll have a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midlife_crisis">midlife crisis</a>. Lol!<br />
<br />
Anyway, I decided to shut down my tumblr completely. I know it's a good way to earn followers, but I really don't have anything to do with it. I don't blog for the fame and popularity. I blog as a way to express my interests, and hopefully be more motivated to do well in real life.<br />

It is always confused with those other japanese fashion genre because of their love for old fashioned clothes. You could buy for the latest trend on Forever21 but still look mori. It's all about the 'feel' of your look. Also dollies and lolitas are kinda OTT kind of fashion, compared to mori girls where you could just wear a simple short and top and still look mori as long as it feels 'nature'.</li>
<li>I hate how I really need to be adept in photography. It's the only proof of living the mori lifestyle since most mori girls are not into forming 'groupies' and tend to be loners or just with a really small number of friends. </li>
<li>I hate how mori girls are expected to only listen to British alternative music. I like all types of music, even pop and sometimes RnB.</li>
<li>I hate how mori doesn't have a strong and big online community. But this has its pros, too. Mori girls should not spend too much time in the internet since they're suppose to be nature loving and always basking the sunlight, lol!</li>
<li>I'm not a fan of wearing fur.</li>

Yes, yes I did.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-unFurO7XU28/TkAjLkP_eWI/AAAAAAAAAD0/sdes8QDIeH0/s1600/New+Picture.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="178" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-unFurO7XU28/TkAjLkP_eWI/AAAAAAAAAD0/sdes8QDIeH0/s400/New+Picture.bmp" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">lol, I didn't even finish 'laziness'</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It's my primary sickness. Why do I procastinate? And even if I try to make a schedule, or to-do list, I end up not doing it. Probably it's because I easily let myself sidetrack to other things (must be the reasons why I like so many things). Like last night, instead of doing another blog for the 30 Day challenge, I end up youtubing a lot of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/RayWilliamJohnson">Ray William Johnson</a>'s videos... Well, I have to admit they are funny, especially the old ones...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So while reading the 'cure of laziness' articles, I've read an interesting point of view from this article:</div><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; color: #333333; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px;">"how can I act when an underlying anxiety keeps me from starting?" Who said that anxiety, discomfort, or fear has to prevent you from starting? I don't remember being told that I have to stop whatever I'm doing if it makes me feel uncomfortable. Again, I'm not trying to be smug, but trying to point out a common misconception. You see, many people are held back or are stuck in their tracks because they believe EVERYTHING SHOULD FEEL GOOD. </span></blockquote>The article further states that one should focus more on the positive outcome of what I have to do, no matter how hard it is.<br />
<br />
The problem with me is that the reason of for my procrastinating is that I almost can't see the positive outcome of what I'm doing. You see, every now and then, I talk about how much I hated my course, and it's mainly the reason why I can't move on. And I can't see the benefit of graduating either since like I said, I hate my course. I don't even know if I'll ever use it after graduating. I have finish all my subjects and I'm doing my thesis right now. My subject is about Anodic Stripping Voltametry of Trace Amount of Arsenic... some chemistry shit you don't need to worry about. Unlike subjects where you go to classes and hopefully pass the exams, thesis requires determination more than anything, and that's what I don't have with my course. I think I have the brains, but dedication? Nada.<br />
<br />
Because of my course, all the things in my life are now affected. I'm not motivated anymore to draw sketches, to be more organize and productive on other things, I don't care much about studying anymore...<br />
I feel bad about myself.<br />
<br />
I so want to move on now, but my course is holding me to the ground. I still wish one day that I would be able to get away from it.<br />

Lets you stumble to different blogs, articles and videos depending on your interest. Very easy to use and highly recommended.</li>
<li><a href="http://pinterest.com/">Pinterest</a> - a lesser extent of Tumblr except it's 'interests' based and not following-based so atleast you can skip on the random reposts of people you follow. Not as user friendly as Tumblr. Only recommended to those who got sick and tired of Tumblr.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/">Cutout + Keep</a> - an online community for the crafty people. It's definitely Japanese culture loving, and has an online magazine called 'Snippets'. I haven't explored it much but it looks like a really cool site and hopefully this site will help to be crafty. Lol.</li>

I guess this pertains to how mori my surroundings are... First of, I don't have any mori friends, but I do read some blogs from actual mori girls, and those floral and lace inspired blogs.</li>
<li>I think that's the thing I like about mori girls, it doesn't really have any boundaries.</li>
<li>Actually, I used to like Lolita fashion but it turned out to be an expensive lifestyle.</li>
<li>Also, I've never seen any mori girls 'war', unlike lolitas who sometimes bites each others neck. Most mori girls tend to be mature but carefree at the same time.</li>
<li>Every since I started liking the style, I started to be more concerned about the environment</li>
<li>And become a pet lover too! (heck, I used to eat dogs... literally =.=)</li>
<li>Mori girl blogs I read tend to prefer flowers, lace and sunshine (oh noes... I love the rain!)</li>
<li>White and creams are everybody's fave and cream became my favorite too! (It used to be black, lol)</li>
<li>Alot seems to love <a href="http://www.forever21.com/Default.asp?cookie_test=1">Forever21</a> clothes.</li>

And the overuse of 'f*ckyeah' is stupid for me.

Yey~ I got a new phone, a Nokia C3! I know, I know it's an entry level phone but it's the first time I had a qwerty phone and w/ wifi. Yup, you read it. First time IN MY LIFE! I never really saw the need for wifi phones because I still prefer actual computers to surf the net. But I now realize how amazing a phone can be with just the addition of wifi. I still won't splurge for an android though, and I don't wanna buy cheap phones(myphone, cherry, etc.) ever again, even if it's touchscreen w/ amazing specs! It's also the most user friendly phone that I've every used. Blackberries still kills my sorry little brain. :( The shortcut settings is way better than Samsung Champ. But I love my new phone the most because it's hot pink~ My phone is such a sexy beast, I love it!<br />
<br />
--------------------------------------<br />
<br />
Woot~ 11 followers and the last time I posted something was last april. It's so weird, but thanks! :) The reason for the long hiatus was because I was always down for the past couple of months. Going back to school was the b*tch. I hate my course. I wish I have the courage to take a new course like multimedia arts or something. Also I've been addicted to Haley Reinhart (more about her later in a different post) and I went to alot of places last July. It was so much fun meeting new people, going to places I've never been before and my ultimate field trip ended with watching HP7. :D I'll try to make a different post because it's hard to blog using phone. :p <br />
<br />
---------------------------------------<br />
<br />
Me and my mom are thinking of buying a dog. The idea came to her after watching Hachiko, lol! She first wanted and Akita Inu just like Hachiko but it costs almost 30k complete with papers and vaccinations (lol, hell no). So we looked for a Bolognese and a Puggle because google said they're perfect for lazy pips pluse they're cute too, but we couldn't find anyone who sells them and sadly, bolognese is only known as a type pasta here. :(<br />
<br />
Dowieh, my 'kinda' dad, suggested for a <a href="http://search.babylon.com/?s=img&babsrc=browsersearch&q=japanese%20spitz">japanese spitz</a>, it's cute and still japanese like Hachiko(still, lol). And just our luck, they cost 3.5-5k w/ vaccinations. My mom was almost sold except that the adult looks too hairy for her liking. But I think she'll settle with a spitz, we'll all find out soon...<br />
<br />
----------------------------------------<br />
<br />
Yesterday was the first time I ever used a nose strip. Yup, after 22 years of living on earth it was my first time. :p I'm not satisfied with it, it felt weird and it didn't remove alot of whiteheads...<br />
<br />
---------------------------------------<br />
<br />
I wasn't able to post from my phone. It kept crashing whenever I try publishing it (thank goodness for automatic save). :( I can't put my pics directly from my phone, too. Anyway, I'll blog about my ultimate <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cordillera_Administrative_Region">CAR</a> trip next time! Yoh, get excited, lol!<br />

I recently got hooked on <a href="http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/The_Sims_3">Sim 3</a> and it's sooooo amazing! Sometimes I feel that I don't wanna go out anymore and just play this game!<br />
<br />
Anyway, I also have this gradual liking to nail art. But I don't really want to buy stamps and those sticker things, I want to really learn how to paint my nails with cool designs! And after the strawberry nail art (and other failed attempt of other designs) I saw this wonderful nail art called water mable which I first saw on <a href="http://mysimplelittlepleasures.blogspot.com/2011/04/notd-pretty-pink-petals-water-marble.html">this </a>amazing site! So here's my first try...<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Nail polishes that I've used</td></tr>
</tbody></table>The Face Shop BR801 for base coat, 24K Majestic Blue (seems more like purple to me, lol!), Caronia Satin White and some cheapo top coat.<br />
<br />
To be honest, it really was a failed attempt because I wasn't able to make actual patterns and bubbles formed. :( But then again when I look at my nails, water marbling is so beautiful <3 It's very time consuming, messy and harder than what it looks like unlike those tutorials that I've watched! Also, only brand new and runny nail polish works for this (so that it would drop easily to the water). Testing the bottles were time consuming. At first, I was going for a light blue-glittery dark blue mix and I've already put on a light blue base coat only to realize that the polishes to be use would just sink on water. After several test, that's only when I found out that it's not really about the quality(what I've initially read on other tuts) of the polish but more on the consistency for it to spread on top of the water because 24K is just another cheapo polish made locally for half a dollar but it still works fine. I also noticed that it formed water bubbles, but I don't really know if it's because of the water or I just did something wrong :( It's sad that I have very small nails since it's more difficult to create patterns but I don't wanna use fake nails nor grow my nails extremely long just for that.<br />
<br />
Overall, I'm still willing to spend time doing this again! :D I want to do this again before I move on to another type of nail art :))<br />
<br />
So there you go! I now like nail art more than make-up because make-ups are just so expensive and high maintenance, you can't just put anything on your face because it might cause your skin some harm. Of course I still have to take care of my nails, but nail polishes are waaaay cheaper! and fun to go crazy with! :D<br />
<br />
I'm now eyeing on some Etude House nail polishes and pens (gah! I need pens!) but I'm on a tight budget so maybe around June I'll try to make a small Haul. But then again, I also want to buy a pen tablet (CD-R King, no way I'm gonna buy a Wacom) on June! What to choose? What to choose? :(<br />

<br />
I also accompany Beng on her swimming classes, yes my flabby blody is floating on the pool almost everyday that's why I got darker. Going to cons was on my itinerary but Sims 3 came around and now I'm a 'taong-bahay' again :D<br />
<br />
That's it folks! I'll probably post again by May because I'm lazy at blogging (even though I have so many things to talk about). It also seems like I'm using Blogger as a public diary unlike most people that shows their beauty hauls or a review of certain things, generally their hobbies and obsessions. Nothing wrong with, I actually feel that my blog is the one that's wrong because of the lack of direction and effort (haha! I can't even layout my page properly). But at the same time this page has become very special to me... Even though at Facebook you can connect to friends and families better, I really am a loner type of person. I don't have a circle of friends, just a few but I still can't share all of myself to them either. Here at Blogger, I'm able to say whatever I want (actually, I can't because most of the time I'm too lazy to write, haha!). I used to have a Livejournal but it turned out to be a 'hate page' where I write all the things that I hate about my life... which is not really a good thing to do.<br />
<br />
I hope I could obtain more optimism and realize the finer things in life through my blog! Much love for those who took time to read my blog! <3<br />

Anyway this is all the things that happened to me this week...<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;"><strong>TUESDAY: <span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #e06666;">SUCKERPUNCH <3 <3 <3</span></strong></span><br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="color: black;">OMG! I don't know why critics are so harsh on that film! It's amazing! It's so unexpecting and crazy! Me and my family (which are all girls) love it! We talked about it almost everytime. Tangled was nice, but we never bothered about it after watching it. Suckerpunch is just so different... problem is, like most of Snyder's films, it's a "like it or hate it" kind of film. I like Watchmen but I've heard fans of the comic version didn't like it.... oh well... I just can't forget how pretty Babydoll (Emily Browning) is, and she's 23 years old!!! I envy her doll-like beauty *sighs*</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://0.tqn.com/d/movies/1/0/w/C/X/sucker-punch-photo-emily-browning4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" r6="true" src="http://0.tqn.com/d/movies/1/0/w/C/X/sucker-punch-photo-emily-browning4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><em>(Spoiler Alert)</em></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">The main reasons why many people disliked the movie is because a) didn't understood anything at all, b) the awkward change in reality didn't make sense c) bad acting/the other characters has no dept. (b) was the reason why we (me and my mom) loved it so much. You never know what's gonna happen next. Besides, the fantasy scences were beautiful and cool. From monster japanese samurais, steampunk, middle-earth-like world, to sci-fi. It was crazy! I think the reason why there was no focus on the other characters was because it was Babydoll's POV (and some of Sweet Pea's too) and she was somewhat on the brink of insanity because of the death of her mother and sister, and his evil stepfather.</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">My sister, for some reason, loved the soundtrack. I think it was ok.</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.filmofilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/sucker_punch_banner.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="103" r6="true" src="http://www.filmofilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/sucker_punch_banner.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The story was said to have lacked a decent plot. It didn't really matter since we all know that Snyder is more of a visual kind of guy. 300 had a simple story, but it was a visual feast. Maybe if the movie was longer a better story would have been made because more time was spent on the fantasy/fight sequences on this movie. Anyway, I don't want to argue with these kind of technical things because I'm no Shakespeare (or mean critic). My sister loved the soundtrack and it's a huge part of the movie because it's the mood setter and songs were pretty good (and rock obviously). The characters, well, Babydoll and Rocket were the most lovable. Others were not much. Everybody was only called by they're nicknames for some (Babydoll's) reason.... I just can't get over how pretty she is!

<strong><span style="color: purple;">SATURDAY</span></strong><br />
<span style="color: black;">My friends noticed my strawberry nails and noticed that it was the same as my beige umbrella (which was strawberry printed). "You really like strawberries!", they said :) In class we talked about giving a positive feedback... It was somewhat boring, I liked the topic but since the instructor is kinda sick, it wasn't "fun" enough (or maybe because I sitting at the back, doodling, heehee~)</span><br />
<br />
I was thinking of going to Animetics Kick-off but I went to <a href="http://fashioninstitutephil.com/">FIP</a> (Quezon city branch) instead because Alabang was just too far. I inquired the Basic Sewing Class and Fashion Accesories class at FIP. The sewing class was really a bargain because for only P10,000 you'll have one-on-one sessions, schedule is Monday, Friday, Saturday and wholeday, and you'll have 6 projects that you can do up to 6 months. Fashion Accesories was a good price too but I really want to learn how to sew. Problem is it might conflict with my schedule once I go back to school again... (Waaah! I don't want to go to school anymore! Can I get a certificate course on Digital arts or something instead? :s) <a href="http://sofamanila.com/">SOFA</a>'s summer workshop are just too expensive for my taste and it's in Makati, kinda far away, too.<br />
<br />
When I got home they were watching The Lost Future which was a pos-apocalyptic type of movie. I'll never believe that men will loose technology and go back to being savages (and even unlearn to read) because of a killer virus that wipes most of the population. Unfortunately, that happened on the movie.<br />
<br />
Late afternoon my fave cousin went to our house and we (my family including Beng, my cousin) went to Gilmore to get a new CPU because my sister keeps nagging mami to buy a better computer so she could play Sims 3 (LOL!) So now I'm using the new CPU. Still haven't explore much about Window 7 and the difference with Vista. Heck, the only reason this was bought is to play better games!<br />

My patience for reading how tos was shortened the same time I turned eighteen... to be honest, I still don't know most of the things I can do with this blogspot, even though there's a lot of how tos in this site. :( And I promised myself I won't make another decent blog until I learn most of the basics here...<br />
<br />
Anyway.... I'll just enjoy myself with these babies talking for now :)<br />

"Why do you speak alone?"<br />
<br />
"Because I have a mind full of thoughts and emotions", answered the man.<br />
<br />
"What are you talking about?"<br />
<br />
"Of emptiness..."<br />
<br />
"Why do you feel empty when your mind is full?", the puzzled turtle asked.<br />
<br />
The man gazed at the ocean again. He did feel empty but at the same so many thoughts is running in his head. Maybe he had become insane because he's now talking to a turtle. <br />
<br />
"I do not feel loved."<br />
<br />
"And so you're not."<br />
<br />
His eyes became watery, but maybe it was because of sea salt...</i><br />
<br />
People are so obsessed of being loved; or at least attention. It is human nature, it's how we measure our worth. Men and women try to be beautiful then say what they do is not for others but for themselves. Why not try to beautiful just inside their room? Everybody's doing something to impress others to praise them.<br />
<br />
I do not condemn this kind of living because I myself is something like this. It's just that now I feel sad because almost no one sees me, and no one really understand me. Someone said to me (a pseudo-psychologist actually) that maybe I haven't found that special friend where I can share all my thoughts and be able to understand me and I will care for every word she/he says and understand her/him, too. <br />
I always dreamed of that special friend... I do have a special friend, but it's a complicated matter. We do care for each other and we share each others thoughts, but we never have the same interests, the same understanding...<br />
<br />
<br />
We are all longing for affection, may it be in a form of having a relationship, a friendship, a tightly bonded group or even fans that even don't really know you they somewhat care for you. <br />
