note: THIS IS NOT A SINULOG POST.
everything happened so fast.
tired.
sad.
confused.
stressed.
sad.
sad.
sad.
i can't even breathe normally anymore. anxiety attacks are kickin' back in. brown paper bag anyone? at least Marey Tambour is keeping me company... and sane. HAHA.
i'm still sticking to my usual study habit philosophy: One day at a time baby. Cramming always works for me. Midterm week. thanks velez for scheduling examinations right after sinulog! very kind of you. well come to think of it, examinations are almost everyday anyway... so blah.

Uncle Alex, I'll Miss You.
YOU ROCKED.

| Fatigue? Eat some mangoes! |
[Sep. 29th, 2008|03:53 am] |
 i had a week long episode of intermittent fever that started the day i took my PT1 long exam which was the previous Saturday. my fever kept coming back and i had no idea what was wrong with me! there was even a night where they had to rush me to the ER. i collapsed twice and had muscle spasms which lasted for a good half an hour. i didnt know what was going on with me.
friends, it wasnt dengue (as i kept saying). but for those who thought it was... thank you for the pointers. haha. especially to chino who made the effort of picking up the "dengue weed" for me. i got you guys the CBC you kept on asking for. haha. still have the bruise for further proof.
one whole week of sickness. plus the uber annoying side effect of the antibiotic drug my uncle gave me left me sleepless for 4 nights! with the help of valium, i finally had a good night sleep. but i wouldnt allow myself to be Valium dependent, then that would be a whole other issue.
Fatigue? Stress? who knows... i am okay now. well, not really... haha. this next 2 weeks will be full of pre-finals and final exams... this time, i would avoid the valium and wish i still had the sleeping problem. damn neuroanatomy!

- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil (preferably canola)
- 1 cup sugar

- 2 tsps vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees

- to make the cupcakes: In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat together the oil and sugar. Add the dry ingredients in 2 parts, alternating with the buttermilk and vanilla, and making sure all ingredients are well blended.

| a March of things to say |
[Mar. 4th, 2008|08:16 am] |
 THANK YOU to everybody for the greetings! even people who i least expected had the effort to text something. haha. you know who you are.
i am old now. i can now "legally" buy alcohol in the united states, play the slot machines, sit in the poker table at the casino's and even play a hand. i might actually do those things, not because i want to but just because I CAN. the thought of those things makes me happy i'm 21.
but now i guess i can say goodbye to my youth. my innocence. my lack of responsibility... haha! i can't use the excuse of knowing only a few things to get away from stuff.. because compared from who i was a year ago, i know more things. i should stop pretending im still curious, but i'm actually not. i just want to amuse myself at how people take my curiosity. from now on, i shall now pretend to know things instead of not knowing them. i like being smarter than others...
of course, the above statements in the 2nd paragraph are completely false. hahahaha. i will never say goodbye to my youth, my innocence and i like the fact that i am irresponsible. it makes me less of an "authority" to do anything. i like being just another somebody. haha. and my curiosity is one thing i will never give up. 21 years and still i feel like i know less and less of the things around me everyday. there are still so many things i want to know! haha.
yes, i shall TRY to be more of an "adult" now. but don't blame me if i can't perform my tasks well... just look at the mess hanging in my room. if i want to start trying now, i should know that any second now, the shelf that holds those hangings is on the verge of falling apart, and if i am adult enough, i should right now remove those hangings and place them somewhere else. but the child in me is telling me to just wait until it breaks then make a move.
haha. now, i share pictures:
 weee. i now have a tumbler! <3
 a coffee mug from krystel. thanks tel2x!
AND FINALLY:
 say Hi to TACO! thanks auntie stell and uncle dan. <3
p.s. - a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my soul mate, RONAN KEATING.

| goodbye Penny Lane Hotel. i will miss the thought of you. |
[Feb. 4th, 2008|10:54 pm] |
i once had this idea, of building a hotel inspired by the beatles. it would've been called the Penny Lane Hotel, i would buy fuente circle from the city government and build it there, along Osmena Blvd until Capitol. it would look like a vinyl record from the sky since its round.all the rooms would be based on various beatles songs... all these plans... these dreams... my life goal... GONE!
friends, meet A Hard Days Night Hotel (see above picture), a four-star, 110 room, beatles themed hotel in Liverpool, England. i wish i was rich and powerful, i woul've built "penny lane" right after i thought of it. huhu.
R.I.P penny lane hotel. ill miss thinking about the fun times we could've had.
p.s - jomm, i'd like to thank you for shattering my dreams... haha. kidding.

forget about the staple emo blog, its time for some happiness! if you really2x know me, you are probably very aware of the fact that i love BOYZONE. if you have never heared of them, then shame. you don't deserve to be my friend. go away! anywhoo, high from such a happy day that was yesterday (saturday), i checked out my regular source of news (ONTD), and there it was! i had to blink twice to see if it was real! the headline: Boyzone Reformed for Children in Need. OMG. i could not believe what i was reading! and then there was the video clip! and 3 mins along the clip, i started to cry. tears of joy of course. happiness. excitement. kilig-ness over ronan (omg HOTT kaau cya!) and the mere fact that i really did miss them. seeing them together again after sooo many years gave me the feeling of utter joy. i slept that night with a huge smile on my face. it was like seeing a very close friend after the longest time. you just want to hug them, scream, yell, jump up for joy! happiness i tell you. sheer joy. wait, haven't gone to the best part just yet... they are going on tour!!! donations please!!! i accept all major credit cards, cash and COD. =p
i missed my boyz. =p
L-R: mikey, shane, stephen, keith and ronan <3
yesterday was such a happy day. i'd repeat that day over and over again. a day full of surprises and laughters, a day to be daring, to risk, to just not care at all. it was a day to feel happy. to forget about the "bitter ocampo" days and just be merry (hala hapit na christmas!). we all need days like yesterday. whenever we feel down and start to write the emo blog, a November 17 should happen.

[Nov. 8th, 2007|08:10 am] |

i wont keep it long. i wont complain nor nag nor make sapot2x words. ill keep it simple.
i don't know what to do anymore.
i can't seem to think.
i don't think i can handle all of this.

| Round Two |
[Oct. 13th, 2007|11:14 am] |
Bombshells: 0
Dark Angels: 2
so we lost again. boohoo. but we had so much fun! at least i did, and the people i got to talk with, they at least had a good time. this is really beginning to unfold into the fungames we originally planned. the score was 21-7, two touchdown's away! but it wasnt about the defeat, it was about the fun we all had. our opponents are starting to become our friends. unlike previous seasons, we never interact with them. no laughs and all business. this time though, we talk, we laugh, we praise each other, we help out with each other, and overall a very fair game between both of us. hence, i look forward to next saturday and more fun! great game girls! and great job angels! =]
after the guys' game (in which we did stats), we went to outpost. need i say more? 5pm pa gani! hehehe. funniest part was definitely my "talk" with sandy (the defense captain/free safety/PTRP/co-owner of outpost). we were probably out of our heads that time, or at least i was, when we talked about the gap between rookies and old players. a talk which turned out to be a straight on english conversation! and everybody listening! haha. that was something alright. after, sandy fed us girls (yea kami ra jud kay special man mi!) and we got to talk about everything, and i mean EVERYTHING. it got to the point nga nag tudlo2x na gud mis among fingers to each others faces! yea that intense. you know that kind of talk where you start to cry and admit all your faults and mistakes? well the crying part didnt happen, di mi in-ana ka weird noh. but yea, things are finally brighter and issues are partially solved. that was fun girls, let's do it again. we also learned a lot from the guys, how they relate our problems with theirs and how to cope up with it etc etc! bsta lingaw to! hehehe =p
LONG DAY! but very productive. stay tuned for Round Three next week. :D

| Update on "Round One" (with some pictures) |
[Oct. 7th, 2007|09:51 am] |
i got an email from Rob Browning, i think he sponsors the Saints and the Dark Angels. well actually it was a mass mail so na apil ko, but it was very interesting (in a good way, i guess?) anyway, i don't think he would mind that i'll post the email here right? i mean, his intention was for everyone to read it. here it is:
"My compliments to everyone on a successful opening day of season 9. Coach Ed was at the field around 5:30am working on getting everything ready and Gabu did a great job organizing the day. The reffing assignments went off without a hitch and overall the refs did a GREAT JOB handling the games and made accurate calls all day. The Pyro and Saints teams pitched in to help finish the field...Big help guys..thks! Special mention to the Bombshells who looked good and scored 12 points against the Dangels Defense that only allowed 12 points through 7 games last season. Great game by both teams. Rob"
that's a good thing right? but first off, 13 points. that was our score, not 12. but ok lng... second, this email just tells us that we have such a HUGE chance in beating last season's superbowl champs! there is a light!!!!!!!!!!!! there is a way!!!! dedication and determination my friends. impossible is nothing. just do it.
*thank you jenymarc for the pics. you can see the rest in her album*

| Round One |
[Oct. 6th, 2007|11:02 am] |
Bombshells: 0
Dark Angels: 1score was 25-13! soooo near yet so far. we did pretty good besides the fact that we don't have enough practices and the team is never complete whenever practice does actually happen. bam did an awesome interception during the conversion of the dark angels which gained us 1 point! other touchdowns courtesy of joy and donewell (first kick touchdown dayon!)
stay tuned for Round Two next week! good game guys! let's do better next time! =D

| the power of Mr. Darcy |
[Sep. 27th, 2007|06:40 am] |
 this is my new desktop wallpaper. this man, this being, this person (though fictional) captured the hearts of many hopeless romantics like me. i know for sure i am not alone in this quest for my mr. darcy. last night, hbo showed pride and prejudice. i have seen the movie, but i watched it again. the first time i saw it was the first time i met him, mr. darcy. i ignored his character for so long but thank god i gave him a chance! haaay... moving on, the second time i watched the movie which was last night, i finally got to share my feelings with someone, my cousin, who watched along with me. the experience was different. i had someone to sigh with at every line, someone to scream and make gigil with at every stare, someone i get to pinch from all the kiligness. OMG TEENAGE CRUSH FLASHBACK!!! hahaha.
i'm getting to my point here. this afternoon, we (mae, krystel and ana) talked about our night with mr. darcy and how he just "bewitched us body and soul", relieving every line he said that made us kilig to our bones! how we wish we would one day meet a person like him. shy, mysterious, intimidating, powerful and rude, yet in an attractive kind of way. one day, we shall have our mr. darcy moments. it was then that all of a sudden, mr. holasca came butting in. i think he asked us why girls are so shallow like that. how us girls think that everything in the movies are so kilig and realistic and how lame it is of us to think that one day it will happen to us. i get him. he has a point. but that wasn't what we were saying. he was thinking of the long run.. that life isnt always happy ever after, and i agree with that. but hey, there's no harm in dreaming right? but that is still not the point. im not really sure if i could actually get there since i don't understand what im writing about anymore.
ok, back to mr. darcy. i wasnt really thinking of the long run with that conversation. honestly, i couldnt even imagine myself spending my whole life with a mr. darcy. so i was really thinking for the longest time about this on my way home... the main reason why i fell in love with him is that i found it so endearing that behind all that power was a wussy heart. i don't know if this applies to all the girls in the world but seeing a persona like darcy being all mushy2x just captures me. look at him, he has everything, and as much as he hates the fact that he fell in love with lizzie, he cant deny it. he had to face it. and that's what i found to be entirely cute. he was willing to risk everything. his status, his power, his family. that's why i fell in love with him. i admit, he is not that good looking, but his character made him look so good and gorgeous.
and so mr. holasca, someone like mr. darcy does exist in this world. our fairytale may not entirely come true but that feeling of being able to feel that special something out of someone you least expect to feel special about you is good enough. that was the kilig moment. that was the gitik factor. that was the feeling that makes us scream like giddly little teenagers. that was the power that was, Mr. Darcy.

 classmates, this song reminds me of us. this has been a very interesting sem! we were challenged with a new level of learning, and we definitely rose up with our new level of studying. we cope up with all the cramped up long exams, daily quizzes and laboratory experiments. the sleepless nights from studying too many things! it has been more of a laughtrip throughout as most of us know each other pretty well by this time. we have become more than classmates, we became friends. guess what folks, this is just the beginning. the worst is yet to come! by that time, we probably will be closer than ever. coming up will be the toughest times of our lives. this stuff we are facing right now, is nothing compared to what we will face in the coming year. good luck to us all! may we stick together till the end!
