Happy new year! I mentioned in my last post that I feel really really optimistic about 2007 and I still do. In fact, I'm so glad that a whole bunch of people I know love 2007 (according to a loval paper 91% of Filipinos feel good about 2007) because the positive energy (despite the killer requirements) is awesome.
Pero... (But...)
BAKIT ANG PANGET PANGET NG INTERNET NGAYON??
Why is the internet so ugly??
This whole "internet hates the Philippines srsly" is really annoying. It doesn't affect my 2007 but it's just really annoying! Hayanobayan!

I'm in serious Stacie Orrico mode now (even though I'm only listening to 2 of her songs ): More to Life, which reminds me of the little green muggle bus (our ride during high school) and requirements limited to bond papers (no canvases, no presentations and ad campaigns!) and I'm Not Missing You because I really missed her face. Luwlz.
Gosh she's gorgeous. She's like Ashlee Simpson (my not-so-secret-shame) pre-nose job and pre-hyperlevel-trendwhorism (because she was a trendwhore when she started). Gosh Stacie, your voice is so "Yeah beb."
###
I'm currently filled with Starbucks' Toffee Nut latte (Thank God it's back!). It's bloody delicious, definately first choice among the three holiday drinks. Gingerbread is ok, a lot of people hate it because it's so strong and bizarre. Ikindalikeit. :3 Peppermint Mocha is totally out of the question. I HATE IT. Gross. It's mocha with a kiss of fucking TOOTHPASTE. Uhm ew.
I drink because I want to help SparkHope. Helping kids is awesome shit. The planner is a selfless gift. Bwahahahah.
Whatever. Hi hi guys! Belated happy christamas and an advanced merry new year! I hope you got what you wanted and needed this christmas and I hope you weren't conscious of all the food that you ate. I know I wasn't x_x
This year, I wasn't pressured to feel the Christmas spirit and I'm quite glad for that. I didn't get all depressed and mopey about how everyone is fantastically happy and cheery. How everyone looked like they downed a bottle of good red wine while I was forced to take castor oil, strapped to a very uncomfortable chair. No. I felt good that I didn't need to feel the Christmas spirit.
Maybe that is my very own form of Christmas cheer? Ha ha, whatever.
I bought a ton of stuff and for my gorgeous family and friends (except the boys. oh no oh no!). Though I didn't recieve a gabundok of presents (as Khan kept reminding me, "You'll have more on our Christmas party!" yay!) I was still pretty good and happy. I knew I gave them awesome presents and I was so glad that my mum was really surprised with the extra 2 gifts I gave her (she thought the haircut we got together was my Christmas present Ohoho.). I got monies and a really sweet card from my cousins (Micky, Monchie and Kiko) from the states that almost made me shed a tear. I SRLSY MISS THEM ;;
###
Food was great as usual. My mum wasn't able to slaughter buy the really really big ham we have every year but instead bought slices which was pretty awesome (more fridge space!). I didn't drink coke because my tummy would go "GRARR. I GIVE YOU PAIN." So I stayed clear of my fizzy dark sweet drink of doom.
Sagar's sister, Smita, flew in from India to spend Christmas with us! This is our first time meeting her but she's awesome. She's just a couple of years older than me. She's so pretty. RLY.
###
I'm jumping from one topic to another. No chronological order. Woohoo!
###
I got an MP3 player as an early Christmas present from my mum and I killed it with a ton of stickers >3
Me and Mookie desu. 1GB of chipipay sweet music. 3 hours of battery life which is a shame because I still have to endure 2 hours of Sir Araw's rambling. Mou mou mou.
Gosh. Kore wa ichiban sugoi ga nichi.

I lost my phone. Well, someone stole it from my Japeks Toki Doki bag/ I was shocked and then I felt kind of sad then I felt all right. So now my old Globe # is dead and gone ;; now I new number it's
09158330136
SMS me with your name and a greeting!
I might get myself a new phone. I'll make sure I get a flip phone. SRSLY. Because I want some serious kira kira keitai action.
I threw a fun and gooood party last Tuesday evening (the evening before Paskuhan) for the gorgeous AdDos class. Almost everyone was there (Agnes!! Bakit walang nag-SMS sayo??) and everyone (as far as I know) had a fun time :D People went crazy for my Nordic Strawberry Cherry Ice. 6 girls managed to almost finish one bottle! Hello 4-5 trips to the bar. Since I am Miz Kabab and Miz Bartender I will share to you the uber-simple drink recipe!
Nordic Strawberry Cherry Ice
What you need: Nordic Ice Vodka Strawberry (you can also use Absolut Kurrant, Arkan/Actic Vodka in Strawberry) Sprite Maraschino Cherries (preferably with stems) Ice
How to do it! Put ice in short glass Pour 1/4 glass of vodka Pour sprite drop the cherry add 3 teaspoons of cherry syrup/juice from cherry jar. Serve. Giggle.
See? Super simple. Stems are cool because when your guest gets giggly you can actually just ask him/her to tie it with his/her tongue. You share a social drink together and learn more about each other at the same time ;D
To answer your question: Yes, I can tie a cherry stem with my tongue.
Anyway.
It was a fun Multiply-worthy evening. Spice Girls, Dave Matthews Band, Erasure, Justin Timberlake, Hed Kandi and an Usher track or two played that night.
Lots of memorable things happened :D I got a gift from Party Pao!!, a how to speak Japanese book. It's super awesome and super sweet! Thanks so much!! 8D 8D
I also got a suuuper awesome book from Lala about me and my descisions. Oh, it's so very very apt!! xD Thank you thank you!
I also got slippers and cookies from Sugar! sweeeeet.
December 19/20 is awwwweeesoooome. Rawr.

Now I don't know what to do. Do my christmas shopping or spend the day with the Kada? Hmmm.. Torn torn torn.
I'm also kind of broke na which sucks to high heaven. WHERE DID MY MONEY GO SUDDENLY???
###
Muchos love to you! ♥ Advanced happy christmas!
P.S. Paskuhan wasn't all WTFAMAZING but it was pretty cool :D
I don't even want to start how my week went. This is so Johnson's & Johnsons but it's been a week of utter ups and downs. Mostly ups but you can't deny the downs. What. Whatever
I shopped shopped shopped this week with two trips to the amazing 168. I've gotten gifts for my immedeate family and friends (except for Khan and the boys; because it's HELL to think of what to give men. SRSLY.) and a number of gifts for myself (A fake Tokidoki backpack (♥), cellphone thingies, nailpolish, tons of make-up, and a top). I keep telling myself I deserve it and it makes me high as a kite that I have not experienced shopper's remorse. HURRAH!
I still don't know what to do with the class' Christmas party. I'll call table and chair rentals as soon as possbile (after making this post :P) and see what I can do about it. This requires some serious planning though. It's too short notice. Grr. But I'll make something happen I promise.

Oh! Something worth mentioning! Last wednesday for Fashion Design, we had a make-up competition. It was so much fun! All the models looked amazing! Even the boys! It was 2 hours of powdery chaos. Lyan and Asia did an amazing job at transforming me into this "magazine-worthy" being. I even won best overall! They're that amazing! I'm still looking for photos (I hate not having my own digicam) but you can check out some here 123.
I went home looking like that and yes, I did get a few stares and sniggers. I bet someone thought I'd go down neon-Q. Ave to do a show or something. Hahaha.
I WANT A MOHAWK!!

By the by, I cut my hair again. I now have Whip's hair. I just felt the need to cut it.
According to Nazee, it's a sign of "Pagbabagong buhay". Sure. Maybe. Whatever.
I'm too lazy and stupid to work on my raisin box. I think I had too much Keema for lunch. I'm overstuffed and my head hurts.
Some serious negative things now.
My head is fucking throbbing and my eyes are deathly unfocused. Thinking of raisin boxes, Velez-work and Fashion Design is making me wanna pull a Mia and share my lunch with my toilet.
Speaking of Kabab...
Went to Victorynite last night where I got dolled-up (and by dolled-up I looked like someone's Tita chaperone!) and listened to some serious ispiration. Can't wait for my One2One!
Ate at Kabab with Petter and his friend Joel. Nazee missed this which sucked because I was supposed to treat him!! TSK!
###
I can't even write properly. Headaches SUCK.
###
On a lighter note, I talked to Tokwa last night. ♥ It does my heart good.
###
I leave you with Japanese cult classic, Suicide Circle. I haven't seen it but it may be too freaky for me to watch alone.
No. This will not be an emo post. :D I have a very decieving subject/title.
Yesterday/Last night was probably one of the best nights I've had in a long long long while (well not really, but it's definately up there!). I can't say we jammed at Mayrics, but we enjoyed loud loud loud music! SO MUCH FUN.
Argel killed us. He was absolutely great!! Francis was fantastic! I'll be posting their original compos when I get the lyrics.
Funny thing last night, I saw good friend Joel (circa-Jem // wannabe guitarist Creole). He was part of Francis' band Ragdoll Rodeo then it all came back. One time, when Jem, Joel and I went to the studio to practice my "mad guitar skillz" (sadly limited to oversung and overplayed Eraserheads songs) he mentioned his band throughout the session.
Ragdoll Rodeo Ragdoll Rodeo Ragdoll Rodeo
Psh, I think I even saw Francis on our way out because they were on their way in to practice.
Last night in Mayrics, under the red lights and egg cartons, intoxicated by stale beer and cigarette smoke, God just reminded me how small the world was. It's tiny!
Went home with Petter and Francis in their friend Joel's car. They were on their way to Mr. Kabab and my house is very near Kabab. I almost wanted to come along if it wasn't for that "ok lang" tapsilog I had for dinner and the fact that I seemed to be invading a private friend meet-up.
Uh-huh. My One-to-one didn't push through yesterday so we rescheduled it for 2pm today. =)
###
I have this award/event thing at Victory Church later. It's a recognition award/event thing for the Outreach Group leaders. Why was I invited, you ask? Well, these leaders have an invite that entitles them to take 2 of thier potential leaders to the said event.
So I have Outreach Group leader potential. Ohwow. I'm not even being sarcastic about this, I'm actualy quite honored! Ohwow. I'm good-girl Creole! My friends will have a riot. lol.

Since this is blogger/blogspot/blog (and not LJ!) I will post yet another video.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix trailer
I don't understand the hate towards Helena Bonham-Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange. I mean, sure, she's not skinny and tall and Black-esque but she can easily pull of the chararcter. It's part of her charm. She looks mad wicked in the trailer, and hot too.
I'm not even going to talk about the kiss. Because if Harry could kiss like that even though this is his first kiss, and by golly he's going to be a natural Hogwarts-heartbreaker (if he surivives of course). I bet he's been practicing.
With his hand?
With Ron?
With Draco??
I wonder what wizard porn is like. (Of course this is a rhetorical question, it obviously moves. Playboy and Hustler would be a riot!)

Last note. I changed the comment settings so that non-blogger users can reply to my comments. Miz Helga said so. SUPP?
So I created this blog for the kids who've been asking me if I keep a blog. I say yes, they ask me the URL I tell them it's "Friends Only". "Are we not friends?" "Shut up."
So this is where I post all my stuff. Not all the dirt (and not much of it since I'm cleaning my act up. Yuh yuh.) and the "OMG I HATE HURRRRRR." (There'll be non of that I hope.) but pretty much what I've been thinking, what keeps me busy, what keeps me sane and what keeps me writing on blogs.
I have several accounts on several sites (I actually have 3 on blogger alone and 4 over at LJ) but I never seem to write about my life. It's always "I feel down" or "whoopee I kissed/kicked major ass today!" and that's literally it. So yeah, I want a report. My thoughts, my shits, my giggles and what I had for lunch and what's in store.
Wow, this post sounds like an actual blog entry!
Now...

Today was the last day of CFAD week, I'm still feeling utterly woozy and sick and crampy (There are moments in my life I wish I had a penis rather than this thing right here.) we had Velez in the morning. A quiz (got a 91, thank God!) and a discussion on segmentation (am partly glad for skimming through BFF Nicenet and seeing the segmentation bit under documents). It ended pretty quickly but we tackled quite a bit.
I didn't eat lunch. Sat with some of the AdDos kids until we pretty much decided to skip Pro Eth ("La-a-a-a-ambert!") to go to the CFAD party.
Partied with The Bloomfields, played with my neon plastic hoops and got a "Miss Personality (Advertising)" award from the student body. So, thank you, I guess.
Went home before Chicosci went on. My cramps were killing me!

I miss the boyfriend. Wasn't able to see him much. Misses him so.
Ohlol. Just remembered. He looks like Daniel Radcliffe at some angles (maybe it's just me, or maybe it's the fact my sister points it out. I'm quite guillible.)
Uhm yeah. I'm the Cho Chang to his Harry Potter, baby.
I like to write stuff down if I have the energy or time. I don't write structured stuff, I just write them down. If you know me, you can pretty much hear me speak the same way I write. I have been waging war against grammar since I was a wee lass and I have always wanted to my stuff to look "neat and artsy" without trying too hard.
