death from boredom..

3:17 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (1)

Grabe. So bored. I never thought na I'd write 2 entries in one day, it's not my style. :[ Pero since wala akong makausap either sa ym or sa chatbox, magpopost na lang ako tungkol sa nakaraang araw.

Bored na bored ako papaunta ng elbi kahapon. Sa sobrang bored ko, naisipan kong taymingan ang biyahe ko. 7:00 AM yung oras pagkatingin ko sa cellphone ko, lagpas tollgate na yung bus nun pero sa 7:00 Am pa rin ako magsisimula.. So ayon.. dumating kami ng crossing, 8:03 AM na.. Grabe ba? Grabe talaga! Isipin mo yun? Sunog pwet ko! Lutong luto sa init ng araw(kahit may kurtina) at lamig ng aircon yung katawan ko. Anyway, pagbaba ng bus, sakay kami ng jeep. Hulaan mo kung anong oras kami nakarating sa boarding house? Hahaha.. 9:08 AM na! So ayun. Binayaran ng tatay ko yung deposit tapos naglakad na kami papauntang entrance. Sakay kami ng jeep na kanan ang routa. Bumaba kami pagkaliwa sa tulay at naglakad papuntang ospital.

Magulo sa ospital. Madaming tao. Mainit.

Ayoko ng ganun eh. Naicompare ko tuloy ang medical ng elbi at dlsu-m. Masyadong organized sa La Salle kaya nung mga panahon na nakapila ako sa elbi, gusto ko na ulit lumipat. Grabe talaga. Sa La Salle, medyo matagal din pero at least aircon at madaming matitignan na bagay... Eh sa elbi, wala! Electric fan lang na hindi pa umaabot sa iyo. May tv nga, pangit naman reception. Eh sa La Salle, wala ngang tv, mabilis naman! Haay.. Ewan ko na.

Ito yung thrill. Nakita ko si Josie Linda Isabel Naval. Ayon. Ganun pa din siya. Tumaba lang. Aaminin ko. Hindi ko akalain na makakapasok siya. Biruin niyo naman yung mga hindi nakapasok tulad nila CK Villanueva, Michelle Yango atbp. tapos siya makakapasok. Actually, hindi ko rin naman inaasahan na makakapasok ako eh.. Hindi ko lang talaga alam ang balak ni Lord kung bakit niya ko nilagay doon. Siguro para mabantayan si cheka. lol. Joke lang. Anyway.. Ayon.

Ang haba ng pila. Yung nurse na isa, parang nagkamali pa sa arrangements ng pagkakasunod sunod ng pagkakapasa ng mga forms kaya yung mga UNANG nagpasa, nasa hulihan.. Hai.. Eh may break yung mga burses ng 12:00 noon. Ang oras ng pagbalik ng doctor: 1:00 PM na. Ayos di ba? Hindi pa ko umabot dun sa 12:00 noon time slot. Naglunch pa tuloy kami doon. Grabe. Yung burger na inorder ko, wala man lang condiments! Kahit ketchup wala. Grabe talaga!

May mga bago akong friends. Dalawa. Hahaha.. Pero magkakalayo ng courses. Yung isa vet med. Yung isa FORESTRY! Ang taray di va? So ayun. Nagpart na rin kami ng ways kasi late na sila dumating. Pauwi, bumili ako ng mexican hotdog kasi gutom na gutom na ako. Ang weird nga eh kasi maanghang siya na sobra. : )

Pagkauwi.. Ayon. Bagsak sa kama. Pero bumangon din naman ako para magpost dito.

Grabe. Bored na ko. Ciao.

This brain twister should only be read by people who have high IQs. Here's the deal, the first human being who answers this insanely awesome whatever-you-may-call-it will receive a prize from me. :P Okay? Now here goes...

Just erase six letters to form one word. Post your answers in this post's comment. I repeat, comment your answer, do not type it in the chatbox or else you will be disqualified.

This reaaally made me go crazy. Natanga ako.

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe and close the door. This question tests whether or not you are doing simple things in a complicated way.

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Incorrect answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the door.
Correct answer: Open the refrigerator, take out of the giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This question tests your foresight.

3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend except one. Which animal does not attend?

Correct answer: The elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator! This tests if you are capable of comprehensive thinking. OK, if you did not answer the last three questions correctly, this one may be your last chance to prove that your brain isn't that small.

4. There is a river that is known to have many crocodiles in it. How do you cross it?

Correct Answer: Simply swim across it. All the crocodiles are attending the animal meeting!

Grabe na to. Ang dami ko ng post tungkol sa elbi! Haha. Instant celebrity na yung school. Well.. Eto lang ang masasabi ko tungkol sa elbi trip kanina-kapagoOood.

At eto pa. Akalain mo yun? Sa pagkabusy busy ng schedules nila ah! Sa sobrang tuwa ng parents ko, pareho silang sumama sa pagkuha ng admission slip ko! Isipin mo yun? Once in a blue moon lang yon ah! In fairness.. Bwahahaha.. At take note, sa sobrang tuwa nila... Tantananan..! Binili nila ako ng gatas ng carabao dun! Bwahahaha.. Pero ah.. Kakaiba iteeech. Kasi masarap pala talaga ang gatas doon! Ayon. Lintikan.. Napasubo sila sa chocomilk at ibinili din ako!

Ang nakakatawa doon... eto-parang nabawasan ako ng 1 pound kakalakad! Bwahaha.. As iiin 1 pound! Bwahahaha.. Kasi ganito yun.. Teka. Sisimulan ko na simula dun sa simula. LOL. Gulo ba? Anyway.. Sisimulan ko dun sa pagsakay ng jeep mula sa amin.

So..We live in Bayanan. (nosebleed! lol.) Edi eto.. sakay kami ng jeep. Ang magagaling kong magulang nga naman oh-oh.. Walang barya! Buti na lang mayaman si Manong driver at 6:20 pa lang eh may panukli na siya sa 100! Sa sobrang yaman niya, binaryahan niya yung 100 ng butihin kong tatay. Baryang barya! Bwahahaha.. As iiin 5 peso coins? Ano? Take mo yun? LOL. Anyway.. Ayun. Edi bumaba kami sa gilid ng Metropolis, tawid kami tapos naglakad hanggang sa may malapit sa Jollibee. Bwahaha. Hinahanap kasi nila yung terminal ng bus ng sta. cruz. Yun pala, wala na doon! Edi balik kami.. Hintay kami ng hintay ng bus na Sta. Cruz. Aba.. Etong si aleng madakdak na pinapagalitan ata yung lahat ng naghihitay, kinausap yung tatay ko! Aba. Kakaiba yung tatay ko.. Nakipagtawanan pa! Bwahahaha.. So eventually, after namin maghintay for at least 40 mins (In fairness ah.. ang tibay ng tuhod ko!), sumakay na rin kami ng calamba.

Kung alam ko lang.. Nako. Kung alam ko lang na ganun katagal ang ilalabi kong oras sa bus papunta kahit hindi naman traffic.. Nko. Sana nagdala ako ng something to do db? As iiin. Super kapagod sa leeg mo kapag wala kang ginagawa kasi mapapatingin ka lang sa bintana buong travel time! Haiiz. Asar kaya yun! At eto pa.. Antaray ng tatay ko. Kasi ganito.. Nung finally nakakita na ko ng traces of mankind(mga bahay na may sampayan sa gilid.) tinanong ko siya kung malayo pa yung crossing where we are supposed to make baba na.. At ang sabi ba naman sa akin.. "Nako Ana.. Nangarap ka pa." As if naman alam ko di va? (Can I hear a "oo nga naman" dyan?) Anyway.. As we continued to ride the bus, napansin ko na kumaliwa na yung bus sa 'mayapa'. Naisip ko tuloy, libingan ba iteeech? Anyway.. Ayon. (Hingal.. hingal..) To cut the story short. Nakarating na kami sa crossing. Dun kami bumaba pagkaikot nung bus sa kaliwa... Away from the busy streets. Nakasakay na din kami ng college na jeepney. At eto pa ah.. Suuuuuper layo pala nung crossing na yun sa elbi! Grabe talaga! As in iniisip ko, kelan pa kaya kami bababa? AS IN! Take note, hindi rin yun traffic. Grabe. Anyway.. To give you a nice point of view kung gaano kalayo yun... 17 ang pamasahe ng mga parents ko... Tapos ang sa estudyante, 14 daw. As in, isang tao lang yun ah!

Anyway.. So ayun na. Nakakuha na kami ng admission slip. (Pasensya na kung fast forward ah.. Nothing to tell in between kasi eh.. ) Ang next stop daw according sa instructions ay yung parang clinic na hospital na ewan kung saan ako magpapamedical. Suggestion ng tatay ko.. Lakarin daw namin yun. No choice naman di ba? Hindi dun routa ng jeep?! Duh. Anyway.. As in naglakad kami.. Across the bridge.. Paakyat ng bundok. As in suuper layooo! Tagatak yung pawis namin lahat pagdating dun. So.. Eto naman ang tatay kong magiting! Pumila sa bayaran.. Ang tagal din niya sa pila nun noh! Tapos nanunuod lang ako ng tv dun. Anyway.. Natapos siyang pumila dun, pumunta naman ako dun sa pila kung saan papaxray since di namin nadala yung xray ko. So.. I was like sitting there sa bench kasi suuper haba din ng pila. Sa tagal, nainip ata yung parents ko kaya tinanong kung pwedeng sa ibang araw na lang tapos dadalin na lang nila yung xray ko sa next time na pagpunta. Eto naman si Ms. Nurse... Payag sa tatay ko! Aba! Influencial! Lol. Pero in fairness ah.. Ang tagal ko din sa pila na yun! Like.. 2 minutes? Lol. Joke lang! Siguro mga 8-9 minutes din yun! Bwahahaha.. In conclusion.. Nwalan ng saysay ang paglakad namin dun mula sa registrar! Btw, ang apelyido ng head registrar nila doon ay.. Tantananan.. Carandang din! Lol. Anyway.. Sumakay kami ng jeep papuntang student Union kung saan magiinquire para sa dormitories sa loob ng campus. Wala na daw vacancy sa women's kaya pinaglakad niya kami hanggang sa "new dorm". As in yun yung pangalan nung lugar.

The way to go there after maglakad ay pedicab.. Imagine. 3 kami.. Taty ko sa likod sumakay. Naiimagine niyo ba yung hirap na dinanas nung driver? Anyway.. Siya na rin yung naghatid pabalik.. Siya din yung nagdaan samin dun sa bilihan ng carabao's milk! XP Ang daming tae sa daan! AS IN MADAMI! Anyway.. 'di ko natipuhan yung place pati nanay ko parang ayaw dun kaya umalis kaagad. Next stop? Dun sa kakilala daw ng pinsan ni nanay. So labas kami ng campus.. Wala ding nagustuhan dun. Nirefer kami sa loob ng campus.. Yung sa gilid lang daw.

Pero siyempre.. Dahil sa akin, kumain muna kami ng lunch sa kfc! Lol. Grabe kaya yun! ANG LAYO at kapagod pa. Madaming naging friends yung nanay at tatay ko dahil sa naging pagtatanong nila. Lol.

Pag pasok namin ng campus ULIT, nilakad na lang namin yung sa gilid. Ayon. Inisa isa namin yung mga dorms and buildings na may bedspaces. Okay naman yung iba. As in A-okaay. Yung isa nga, may libreng laba at plantsa pa sa offer nila! Aba sulit yun. Pero hindi namin siya napusuan.. MAs pinili na rin naman yung may kasama nang meals sa 4000. Mahal pero okay na.

The bus ride going home was teriffic. Yung tipong.. Pagod ka na tapos gusto mo na matulog tapos meron silang BLARING SOUNDS para sa background mo? haiiz. So much for that.

By the way.. I learned. Just now. Na... Tantananantanan!!! Kasama ko si mark sa boarding house! Lol. So cool di va? OK. Til here na lang muna.

UPLB, here I come!

I'm getting ready for tomorrow, looked for a map and asked a lot of people on how to go there. Finding a campus map was hard at first but eventually I found one that is just right. Well.. I sure am praying for one thing now. To be happy? Nah. To have good grades? Nah. To lose weight? Teka muna. That's not part of the topic naman eh! Hahaha.. I'm praying for a vacancy in their women's dorm. Late na kasi at this time of the month na maghanap ng dorm inside campus.

by the way... Napag-alaman ko na tapos na ang orientation nila. Paano na iteeeech?

Living the dream...

9:19 AM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

For all ye out there who's like Ivan na nalalabuan sa entry ko, I chose lb. Whoa. Hold it right there! I know you've got a lot of questions pero hang on in there. I've listed almost all your possible questions and readied myself some answers to go along with it. Fasten your seatbelt, this is going to be a really bumpy ride.

1. Why? Why did you choose lb?
- Independence. My mom told me about college before I took my exams in those universities. She told me about herself while in her college peaks. She told me that by staying in a dorm not only did she had the chance to leave her parents' fighting sprees but she also found out that she was capable of living independently(ironing, laundering, cooking etc.).

- Environment. La Salle is well maintained pero we can't deny the fact na mas natural ang linis ng lb. Plus as I've said in my earlier posts na maingay ang LRT sa La Salle. I haven't been to lb except for vivid memories of stopping there when I was a little kid for lunch. I dunno with you pero it seems more appropriate for learning.

- Parents. Yeah, I know... Alam ko na hindi naman sila ang mag-aaral kundi ikaw at na buhay mo ang nakasalalay at hindi ang sa kanila. Pero they brought you up and paid for everything you have now. Maaaring for some people out there, this wouldn't make sense kasi ang gusto ng anak, accounting tapos ang gusto ng parents, nursing. Aba.. Hindi ko na problema yun(hehe..)! My mom's ideas and mine are not so far from each other. Mapa-La Salle man ako or lb, pareho lang ang patutunguhan ko kasi halos pareho lang ang course. And can you grasp the idea na umiiyak ang mom mo dahil lang sa course? Hindi noh.. I'd do anything for my mom pero I'm not choosing La Salle just because she wants me to.

- Education. I think the word speaks for itself na. 'Nuff said.

- Money. Yeah.. I know! 'di ba money's not the problem in our family?! Pero.. Isipin mo naman yun 'di ba? Kuya ko, nagdodorm sa ateneo. Tapos ako, maglalasalle? Ok lang naman kasi pondo nga ako.. Pero hindi niyo ba naiisip na naaawa din ako sa Lola ko!? Malay niyo, maubos bigl;a ang kanyang resources 'di ba? Feeling ko mas makakatulong ako sa family ko by making this decision. (Yeah ivan... Kung sakali mang bumababa, hindi pa rin natin maikakaila na mas mababa pa rin ang sa lb. :D)

(Hingal... Hingal... Whew!)

2. Eh ano ung post mo na 1st day?
- Pa-epal lang yun para maguluhan kayo. Actually, it's more of a 1st day mourning. Pero di naman ako nagmomourn. Naiyak lang ako nung nagtext si Mark the other day kung sabay kami papasok tsaka kung saan magkikita. Huhu... *tears* Tapos nagtext pa si Ivan kahapon.. Tinatanong kung mei klase ba daw kami magkita daw kami sa garden... *tears* Ayon lang yun. As some of you may have noticed na I didn't mention anything specific or details about something kasi baka mawala yung essence niya na maging panggulo.

3. So... How do you feel now?
- I feel like I'm about to lose my head kasi I can't think of other questions na. Anyway, if you're talking about college and how I feel about my decision, I feel happy for myself.

4. Final question. (Yey!) Out of all your reasons sa Q#1, ano ang main na dahilan mo for going to lb?
- Well.. Actually wala dun. Hahahaha.. Narealize ko kasi through Sir Anteja(kahit na boto siya sa La Salle) na kahit saan ako mapadpad, I have the ability in me to make myself excel in things I do not. I can be happy kahit saan mang malungkot na lugar ako mapunta. Plus, as I've said before, wala pa akong definite circle of friends sa La Salle kaya hindi pa ako attached doon. I can make myself be absorbed in lb kasi mas ka-level ko ang mga tao.

- One more thing! I heard my kuya tell my mom na sana he didn't go to Ateneo. Whenever he passes the UP compounds, everyone seems to be happy if not happier than he is right now. 'Pag Ateneo naman daw kasi, there's nothing to be excioted about... Parang wala lang. He's kind of people are in UP, it may not be lb pero they're still UP naman di ba?


Oh di ba? There you go. ;)

Ang inyong pinakahinihintay! Bwahahaha.. Ang post ko for my 1st day.

Well.. Ok naman. Nagtetext si Ivan sa akin. Ayon, wala akong load. (soree ivan!) Masarap naman lunch ko. Naka-uwi ako around 5.20 kasi humiram pa ako ng tape. Ayon.

Haha.. Asan yung thrill doon? Wala naman. Eh.. Bakit niyo inaabangan? Wala lang din? Hai. Ayon na.

***Since I wasn't allowed to use the computer last night to give me more time to think of what I must do, I wrote my thoughts in an old notebook. I figured that my diary can't handle too many words so I'll trim this down when I write this there. But since this entry has no limitations, I'd write everything here. ***

Here we go:

Time check: 8.51 PM

I am still confused. I don't know what to do with myself. Wish I'm emo so I can cut myself to life. Pero that can't be naman kasi I'm scared of blades esp. blood.

I just need someone to talk to. Sadly, wala akong load. I feel weird. This may be the worst night ever(as of now!). I can't sleep. Why is it so hard ba? Hai.. I'll try to sleep ulit and maybe I'd find some answers in my dreams. Ciao.

Time check: 9.01 PM

I can't sleep. My mom was kinda pissed off kasi I was restless sa kama. By the way, sa mga hindi nakakaalam, magkatabi kaming 2 in a Queen sized bed. Anyway, hindi na muna ulit ako aakyat sa kama kasi baka mas lalo pa siyang maasar.

My mom is really squeezing the life out of me right now. I'm irritated na nga sa mga pangaral niya eh.. Pero I know naman for the fact na she's just trying to help me get through this. Actually, she's trying to plant the idea in my head na UP is the right choice. Hai.. Feel like a total loser right now. Wish ko lang, sana 'di na lang ako nakapasok sa LB para wala akong prinoproblema ngayon.

Here, I'll break it down for you guys:


DLSU-m

UPLB

In terms of money
used for tuition:

123K for the whole 1st yr

1 yr, less than 60K

In terms of matututunan:

pascal people na ‘di ko close.

In terms of other people:

Medyo malandi pero mei
down to earth naman
at normal beings.

May freedom of speech
kaya malakas ang tao.

In terms of environment:

Malinis, appropriate for
learning, maingay lang
lrt ‘pag nasa labas.

Maluwag, peaceful and
surroundings pero
mausok daw.

In terms of future mee:
(according to my mom..)

Buorgeoise
(yii.. Hahanapin sa dictionary!)

May strong personality
na may respeto sa ibang tao.

In terms of mee:
(AGAIN. And now
according to mee..)

May strong personality
at simpleng tao lang.

In terms of delight:
(see the diff?)


3.5 out of 5.



3.25 out of 5.


Time check: 10.15 PM

Hindi pa rin ako makatulog... Anyway, 'di ko naman sinusubukan e. Katext ko sila Sir Anteja, Sir Eman, Aira at Sher. Sabi ni Krizia, maglb na lang daw ako kasi sayang yung opportunity. Sabi naman ni Sir Anteja, kahit saan daw ako basta ang gusto niya ay maging masaya ako sa college. Sabi ni Sher, sa La Salle na lang daw ako kasi magulo daw sa UPLB. Sabi ni Sir Eman, magtoss coin daw ako. Sabi ng puso ko, wala. Arrgh. Still confused.

Wala na kong load pantext kay Aira kaya nagpaalam na ko. Unli na pala ako. Medyo ok na pakiramdam ko ngayon habang sinusulat ko ito. Kalmado lang, in english, calm. Hai.. Parang ok na ko kahit saan ako mapadpad. Naisip ko tuloy bigla yung mga La Sallian friends ko. Itetext pa kaya nila ako pag nagUPLB ako? Mamimiss kaya nila ako? Mas oonti pa sila kung sakali. Sana itxt nila ako. Yun eh kung lb ako! Haha.. Uuy! Tumawa ako. Ibig sabihin ba nun masaya na ko? Hmm.. Hindi pa rin masyado pero katulad nga ng sinabi ko, gumaan na loob ko.

Time check: 10.25 PM

Ang bagal ng oras. Ang kanta sa radyo: "It's too late to 'pologize... It's too laaaattte..." Grabe. Baka kantahin ko yun sa future 'pag mali ako ng naging desisyon. Anyway, Nakapagdecide na si Sir Anteja, sa La Salle siya boto. Hindi pa nagrereply si Sir Eman, pinag-iisipan pa niya siguro ang ibibigay niyang advice. Sa tingin ko ito ang pinakamahaba kong entry ever! Except sa 1st day ng klase sa kung saan mang school ako mapadpad.

Anyway, kailan ba ang pasok sa lb kung sakali? Kung may nakakaalam man, paki lagay sa cbox ko. Salamat!

Ssssh... Gumagalaw nanay ko sa kama. Siguro iniisip niya kung ano sinusulat ng anak niya sa notebook na ito. Grabe, 10:28 na... Ang bilis ng 3 minutes na yun ah! Nadale ako. Tinext ko na ulit si Sir Eman. Baka kasi nakatulog na siya o na-nosebleed sa tanong ko. Tapos nagreply bigla! Sabio nag-iisip pa daw siya. Iba talag 'pag matalino.. ..ang tinatanong! Akala mo kung ano noh? Pinagiisipan talaga niya mabuti bago magbigay ng advice.

Hmmm.. Kapagod siguro itype itong entry na ito. Sayang tinta ng ballpen ko. Gelpen pa naman... By the way, makuha ko ito sa La Salle... Santuggon ata yun eh. Anyway, gumagalaw pa rin nanay ko sa kama. Bothered siya sa anak niya na magcocollege na sa wakas. Kapag naglb ako, mag-isa na lang siya sa bahay. Wala na kasi si tatay dahil pupunta ng US tapos si kuya, nagdodorm din tapos ako, magdodorm din pag lb. Teka. Baka iyon ang iniisip niya.

In fairness medyo naaawa din ako kay nanay. Feel ko kasi iniisip niya na suuuuper nahihirapan ako at wala naman siyang magagawa para makatulong.

Time check: 10.34 PM

Whoa. -_- Never stayed up this late buong summer. Lagi akong before 9.00 natutulog. Nagtext na si Sir Eman. Ang kanyang husga? La Salle. Well... Well... Well... Lumalaban ang DLSU! Hai.. Nakaka 4 pages na ko ng papel. Don't worry, 'di naman baligtaran to eh.. *Yawn* Unang hikab ko for the night.

Ibahin natin yung topic. Nagpacheck ako ng grado ng mata kanina. Tumaas daw pero 'di ko pa daw kaya yung 50 na salamin, medyo mabigat sa utak. Kaya ayon, 'di muna pinalitan. Balak ko magbago ng frame eh... Kaso, (Here we go again...) hindi daw yun neccesity as of now which I beleive is true din naman. Pero ano ba ang binili ko na hindi neccesity aside from extra clothes na supposedly susuotin sa La Salle. Kasi nga db, socialite yung mga tao.

Sumasakit na mata ko. Lamp ang source of light ko ngayon eh...

Time check: 10.46 PM

Beware, gising pa nanay ko. Naaawa na talaga ako. Magtratrabaho pa siya bukas ng umaga. Pero paano na ko? Wala pa akong final answer. At tsaka hinihintay ko pa ang reply ni Sir Eman. Sinisipon na ko sa aircon. Yeeees! Nagreply na si Sir... Ako'y nagpaalam na sa kanya kaya libre na ko matulog!

Yii.. Alam ko ang iniisip mo o magiting kong mambabasa! Binasa mo ito pero hindi mo nakita ang hinahanap mo! Hahahaha.. Hindi ko muna ipopost ang desisyon ko para may suspense. : ) Salamat sa oras!

Time check? 10.57 PM Good night! x_O

Why does this have to happen? Why? I am freaking stressed right now! At eto pa! Of all times, wala akong makausap tungkol sa problema kong dinadala! I am going crazy. Insane. I am restless. I can't think straight. I am near to tears. I don't know what to do! :S

Ok. Lots of questions you've got there. Hold on for a sec. Breathe Ana. You've got nothing else to do and I've got nothing else to write so here it goes..

I passed La Salle. OK? Now grasp the idea of me having fun at the LPEP 2K8 or me having acquaintances over breaks and lunches. It should be a happy thought, moron. Erm, sorry. Got ahead of myself there. Hold the picture right there.

Now picture this scene naman... I am accepted in UPLB. How about that? Cool 'di ba? Nu-uh.. Don't think of the earlier picture until I tell you to. Ok.. There you go. Just picture me having the education of my life. Graduating in UP.. Again, hold the image right there.

For the last and final image, think of the date May 24. That is tomorrow if you aren't aware. Um. Tomorrow's the deadline for the back-out thingy. That means, I have a choice. It's either I go to UPLB or I stay in La Salle.

Well.. Here's the news! Let's try to visualize all three images together, shall we? Think of the first one first. Then, add a bit of the 2nd one. Summarize it up by adding a layer of the 3rd picture. Done? Well.. Here's the deal. If you really did what this post told you to do, then you'd have this image: I have to make a decision overnight! Uh-huh.. That's right folks! I am stuck between two good universities. I am stuck between my parents and my friends. I am simply stuck in a no-backing-out-in-this-problem zone and I am TERRIFIED.

Do you get the point?

Ok. Now, breathe with me. Slowly.. Inhale.. Exhale. Slowly now.. Don't panic. Just be calm. Everything is going to be alright. Ok, Ana? Everything is going to be fine. You only have to make a simple decision overnight? Is that hard?

Movie Mania #1

12:37 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

That? That is Harold Crick.

He's not crazy. He's just written that way.

I watched Stranger than Fiction yesterday. Pretty weird movie with a crazy concept. It was a killer flick! Erm. Kinda boring sa ibang parts pero when you dig in deeper and try to understand the situation, you'd be quite absorbed by emotions that are being poured to you from the characters.

Shortcut? Well... OK. There once lives a lonely man with his wristwatch. He counts everything, from his brush strokes to his footsteps to work. He is always on time with the help of his wristwatch. He is an IRS agent, everybody hates him. One day, while brushing his teeth, he hears a voice out of nowhere. The voice isn't speaking to him instead it was speaking about him. He looks for it and becomes distracted at work. He looked crazy a lot of times kasi the voice is right most of the time.

At first, he asks help from a psychologist but soon opted for a professor who knows a lot about literature. The voice daw kasi is somehow narrating about his life and while waiting at the bus stop one day, the voice said that he was going to die. Upon hearing his side of the story, the professor did his thing, asked him a whole lot of stupid questions which may be realted to his situation and finally tells him to live his life.

Living his life now, he had a girlfriend, improved in his social skills and no longer counted steps. And then, BOOM! He heard the voice again, but now, its not afloat in the invisible zone. He saw the narrator on tv! It was Ms. Eiffel, a writer known for killing her main characters in a creative way. And now, Harold needs to track her down and stop her from killing him. Eiffel, soon after meeting Harold Crick in person, thinks about the other people she might have killed with her writing. Thinking she was bad and cruel, she decided not to finish Harold's story only to find out that Harold wanted her to finish it. Prior to that, Eiffel gave the untyped manuscript of his death to Harold which means that Harold accepted his death with his knowledge of the art of how he was going to die.

Well.. To save much of the thrill if you wanna watch it, Harold didn't die. The question is why he didn't die when in fact, Eiffel finished the story with Harold's request? Hmm? :D

Another question: What would you do if you find yourself in a situation like this?

I give it a 3 out 5 stars! Good job Will Ferrell! Btw, because of this flick, I came to love his version of Whole Wide World of the Monkees. : )

TODAY COUNTS!

8:17 AM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

I am totally not going to talk about world health and proper garbage disposals to help save mother earth as you think I may be up to. "TODAY COUNTS" is the title of my devotional book written (and autographed!) by Harold J. Sala. I met him in person already! ;p Beat that?

Today, May 22, it's title is "If I only had... I would be happy.". The story used as an example was not really possible pero it struck me like never before. Since it did, I would like to share it with you. Here's the whole page for May 22.

The Yiddish writer I. L. Peretz tells the story of a down-trodden, poverty stricken man by the name of Bontsche who dies and goes to heaven. As a reward for his years of long suffering an angel asks him what is his most fervent wish. The man replies, 'I should like to have every morning, a hot roll with fresh butter.' That was it-a warm piece of bread with butter. Forget the hunk of cheese, the expensive car or the palatial home. He was satisfied having what he wished for on earth but had often been denied.

What would it take you to be really satisfied? "If I only had.." we often say, usually filling in the blanks with material items, then we would be happy.

No one in his right mind would deny that having three meals a day, adequate housing, clothing, friends and family are important. But have we placed too much value on the trappings of affluence as a prerequisite to being happy.

The phenomenal success of Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life is a powerful demonstration of the fact that one of the most affluent generations in history is also one of the most poverty-stricken, spiritually speaking. "What's life really about" people today cry in loneliness. "What's missing that I desperately need?"

In one of her songs, Britney Spears, who has had fame and fortune asks, "If there's nothing missing in my life, why do these tears come at night?" The one with the biggest pile of toys is not the winner. It may well be the contented Bontsche who has his roll and butter inside heaven's gate.

Hmm? Get the point? Nonetheless, bulls eye ako! Just look at my post about wanting to have some material things while in college.

I feel ashamed.

Twilight Madness

6:09 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

His face was pained again. "Please, Bella," he whispered.
I stared into his suddenly burning golden eyes. "Please what?"
"Please, for me. Please make a conscious effort to keep yourself safe. I'll do everything I can, but I would appreciate a little help."
"I'll work on it," I murmured.
"Do you really have any idea how important you are to me? Any concept at all of how much I love you?" He pulled me tighter against his hard chest, tucking my head under his chin.

Above is an excerpt from its latest book. I couldn't get more than a chapter from every book since I don't have one. I got the excerpt from Stephenie Meyer's site in which she gives a free chapter read of Chapter 1.

Everyone seems to be craving for the twilight series and its upcoming movie. For all of you out there who hasn't read a single book, don't you just wonder why it's become the oh-so-good-book-and-you're-missing-a-lot-if-you-don't-read-it legend? Well.. It may be its very unlikely plot that Stephenie Meyer dreamed about accompanied by her endless nights of imagining Edward for compilation to give to her older sister Emily the next day? Or it may be just because everybody's pretending to like it because everybody is reading and talking about it?

Influence is deadly. As Henri Amiel once said, "The man who has no inner life is the slave of his surroundings."Pretty weird how I connected this topic to Twilight, eh? Ha ha. Anyway, If your desire is to be successful or to make a positive impact on your world, you have to be a person of influence. Without influence, there is no success. Without influence, twilight wouldn't be this popular.

A person of influence has integrity with people. Integrity is about the small things. It is the foundation upon which many other qualities are built such as respect, dignity and trust. If the foundation of integrity is weak or fundamentally flawed, then being a person of influence becomes impossible. How is your integrity level coming up?

Here are some questions to help you measure your integrity.
1. Am I the same person when I'm in the spotlight as I am when I am alone?
2. Do I have an unchanging standard for moral decisions or do circumstances determine my choices?
3. When I have something to say about people, do I talk to them or about them?

In tagalog:
1. Plastik ba ko?
2. Magsisinungaling ba ko sa syota ko kung nandyan yung crush ko?
3. Tsismosa ba ko o pranka?

In chinese:
Nyee.. I wouldn't go that far! He he he..

But do be really careful. Your tendency may be to skim through the questions, giving answers that describe how you wish you were rather than who you actually are. And remember this:

Many succeed momentarily by what they know;
Some succeed temporarily by what they do; but
Few succeed permanently by what they are.


Have a good day! x_O

I wonder..

12:41 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

Why is the sky blue?

As Science explains it:

The atmosphere is the mixture of gas molecules and other materials surrounding the earth. It is made mostly of the gases nitrogen (78%), and oxygen (21%). Argon gas and water (in the form of vapor, droplets and ice crystals) are the next most common things. There are also small amounts of other gases, plus many small solid particles, like dust, soot and ashes, pollen, and salt from the oceans.

The blue color of the sky is due to Rayleigh scattering. As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red, orange and yellow light is affected by the air.

However, much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules. The absorbed blue light is then radiated in different directions. It gets scattered all around the sky. Whichever direction you look, some of this scattered blue light reaches you. Since you see the blue light from everywhere overhead, the sky looks blue.


Blue sky from scattered light

As you look closer to the horizon, the sky appears much paler in color. To reach you, the scattered blue light must pass through more air. Some of it gets scattered away again in other directions. Less blue light reaches your eyes. The color of the sky near the horizon appears paler or white.

Sky paler at horizon


Hmm? I guess you skipped the entire post to get here. Well, in a different point of view..

As a preschooler explains it:

Photobucket

"Because God made it that way... God wanted it to be blue, That's why!"

It's pretty amazing how children think about stuff that way. In the right sense, they have a point. God created all things this way because He wants it to be just as it is and because He knows what's best. : )

**I don't know who that preschooler is pero his smile is kinda cute.

bookworm at heart

6:33 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

When I was a kid back in the 90's, I used to be left alone mag-isa due to my Mom and Dad's hectic schedules. Owning a school, I often ran to the our school library to read story books for comfort. Lonely as I was, the books kept me alive with it's stories and tales of the never been heard villages and secret passages to the underground tunnels. Detective stories of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle were my favorite novels back then.

My interest haven't changed a lot since then.. I still read a lot of books pero most of them are about today's issues and how to survive challenges. In short, my habits and ideas about reading have evolved as I got older.

I am currently reading a book entitled "The magic of thinking BIG" by David J. Schwartz. I didn't buy this book nor did I scan through it in a bookstore. I was as usual shuffling through the old books in my Dad's collection looking for an interesting book about life when it simply bought my attention(or is the right term, caught?). Anyway, I'm still trapped in the first 3 Chapters since it is very long. Most paragraphs have the same idea which makes it redundant pero it still uses different examples kaya may thrill.

Here are some pointers to hold on that I learned while reading.

*Success means freedom: freedom from worries, fears, frustrations and failure.
*When you believe I-can-do-it, the how-to-do-it develops.
*The "Okay-I'll-give-it-a-try-but-I-don't-think-it-will-work" attitude produces failure.
*A person is a product of his own thoughts.
*Others see in us what we see in ourselves.
*Our mind produces countless thoughts a day. It is governed by Mr.Triumph and Mr.Defeat. The more work you give either of these two foremen, the stronger he becomes.
*Looking and looking and looking for an illness often actually produces illness.
*Talking about your health bores people, it makes you look self-centered.
*Manage your brain instead of worrying about how much IQ you've got.
*It's one's attitude toward age that makes it a blessing or a barricade.
*Fear of all kinds and sizes is a form of psychological infection.
*No one is born with confidence.
*Action cures fear-indecision, postponement fertilize fear. (Think of a diver who doesn't know how to swim about to jump 8ft from air to 8ft of water. The more he prolongs it, the more scared he is.)
*Isolate your fear then take action.
*The other people out there are basically like you and me, there's no reason to be afraid of them.
*Remember these lines when someone declares war on you: "Underneath he's probably a very nice guy. Most folks are."
*There is within each of us a desire to be right, think right and act right. : )
*Confident action produces confident thinking.
*Only you can understand yourself.

Whew! Tiring, huh? Pero I hope it was helpful. It was for me though. Interesting stuff to learn from an old book for old people. Hehe.. : D

movie crazy!

1:38 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

I'm going out with my lolo to the cinemas today. Pretty weird combo right? I am totally clueless concerning the movie to watch kasi I'm currently not updated with the line-ups. Btw, senior citizens are free to watch any movie from Mondays to Thursdays in Alabang Town Center, as in libre;FREE! Cool huh? My lolo is actually turning into an avid fan of movies na kasi he always goes to the town whenever he can. Ha ha.. At least he did prove to us na he's still strong and pretty fit to commute.

I'm going to post special moments that happened during my lpep so stay put for that. : D

Animo, La Salle! : )

LPEP 2K8

8:02 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

From its title alone, I guess you've already figured out the topic of this post for yourself. I wasn't able to write about it on the day itself so I guess this would be the right time. Right?

Day 1

When I arrived in La Salle at around 6:45 AM, I met Stefanie Cuartero sitting on a bench with her Dad. I was shocked knowing that I didn't expect to see her there nor did I expect to see myself there so early. I left the metro at around 6:20 and although it wasn't dead traffic, it was still quite amazing how highways help a lot of people nowadays. Anyway..

As soon as students flocked through the South Gate entrance, Stef and I walked with them or should I say followed them to get to the Central Plaza. We were greeted by a whole lot of smiling faces when we officially stepped into the plaza. All of them wanted to help us immediately! We searched for Aira first since she texted Stef about her whereabouts in the campus. we found her alright pero we didn't get the chance to get near her because I was directed immediately to my block which was kinda far from them.

I was asked to log-in, wear my name tag and to follow a girl to the location of my blockmates. I was given a green guide which contained a lot of facts about people who are of authority and stuff about the orgs. As we(the LAmb and I) walked towards my blockmates, a certain fear enveloped me again. The fear of meeting new people a.k.a strangers is one of my few hidden weaknesses. But then and there, I fought its deadly swords and trapped the monster within me. All that I did just for the sake of having new friends and having a college experience that would be out of my mind.

As I sat on the bench where another girl was seated first, I started thinking about a whole lot of things. Here's the deal, I'm a huge pessimist and due to that most of my thoughts are inclined to the negative side of the ordeal. And so there I was, thinking of stupid things about to happen to me when suddenly the girl beside me asked me a question. Out of the daze, I stuttered an apology concerning my state of mind when she asked me the question. Repeating the question, she mentioned that I looked kinda serious. To my dismay, she added that I looked quite responsible and intelligent which is totally incorrect-if I may add.

We talked for a while and stopped for a minute or two to ponder on the responses we got from each other. By the way, she's a scholar-75% pero parang full 100% na rin because their school funded her 25% which is totally cool. A lot of blockmates came soon after that and we were introduced to one another by one of our LAmbs(Ate Sam).

Soon after, we proceeded to an amphi theater(or is it one?) in the Yuchengo building to watch the much awaited opening program prepared by the GMG(Green Media Group). As the program continued, speakers were introduced and presentations like the choir did their thing, students who were late continued to fill the empty seats. Although not the best performances was squeezed out of the hosts, I congratulate them for a very nice prod. A certain adrenaline rush came over me (or was it a sense of accomplishment?) when we sang the Alma Matter. *Hail, Hail Alma Matter.. Hail to De La Salle!* ;p

After every thing's done there, we headed over to the stairs to start a long walk to the Yuchengco Lobby where a simple snack was made ready for us. After eating, we proceeded to our designated room(Room 405) in the 7th floor. We had a game which gave us an opportunity to know our blockmates better. From thereon, "stolen" photographs were a usual thing. We had a taste of lecture there too! Hmm.. I can't remember a whole lot from it anymore but the main idea was De La Salle's life.

We had a small tour because it was drizzling. Good thing I lined up front since most of the people at the back weren't listening well. : D Nearing dismissal, we logged-out and said our goodbyes.

Day 2

As I was entering through security, a familiar blockmate face approached me and asked me if we could walk together to which I gladly replied a loud YES! As we were walking, I felt uncomfortable due to the silence enveloping our fast-paced walking so I opened up a conversation only to find it die as the seconds passed by. Well, a phrase hit me in the head when I noticed her coldness..-This is college.

As soon as I logged in and got a new name tag or should I say, name sticker, JP's look-a-like talked to me about his achievements. Well, I shared some of mine just for the purpose of connecting bridges. I talked to Marny most of the latter time since she seemed quite interesting to me which she proved for good.

I thought that we were headed to our usual room when we stood up to line ourselves only to find out that we were headed to a chapel to start the day with a mass. I am a Christian. They were Catholics. How hard could it be? I didn't join them in communion and in the kneeling down part in which I assumed as a position when in prayer. I survived the experience and was happy I went in since it was my first time ever to be inside a place like that.

We soon found ourselves being directed back to the lobby for some early snacks. We rushed to the elevators soon afterwards to begin a new lecture about grades and its processing. I enjoyed it, especially the parts wherein some of my questions were instant hits like "If there's no teacher after the 30 minute interval, can we leave the classroom?" or "Are there substitutes?". Well.. As much as I ask sensible questions, others are just plain trying hards. Seriously! But as much as you would like to hear examples, I will sadly not elaborate on it.

The next part of their program was having the D.O. explain their job and minor/major offenses that may be committed during our stay. Dun ko lang nalaman na life time na pala ang records ng offenses namin so I better be good while I'm there kasi I don't ant to mess my papers up. D.O. stands for Discipline Office. Hmm? They listed it down in our heads with the use of a game that tested our ability to "decode" the messages. After the winners were announced, the speaker then introduced herself as the sister of one of our blockmates: Marny. In which to my amazement was obviously true and was ashamed of myself for not noticing the similarity between them.

We proceeded to the Enrique Razon Sports Center to round up orgs like the Computer Society and the Mathematics Circle and to receive special welcome gifts from them(notepads, pens, laces etc.). By the way, the stairs ruined me! It was a verrry loooong walk up so we had to stop for a minute or two to catch our breath back. Going on, I had pala fun waiting at the court since Aira walked up to me to have a little chit-chat about our on-going phases in LPEP. Sadly, she didn't enjoy most of the programs as much as I did. After endless minutes of waiting, we were directed to the "home court"(or is it? It sure looked like one though..) of La Salle. To my dismay, it was HOT.

Well.. A lot of presentations followed the hosts like the inner soul performance,the street dances, the PEP squad and a special perf from our very own LAmbs(Go Kuya Beni!). The PEP squad taught us cheering yells and its actions while we were there too! They even went up to the bleachers to guide us in our learning exp! I went ballistic over some cheers like "D.......L-S.......U Animo, La Salle!" and "Whoooooooooo......oooooo! Animo, La Salle!". I know, La Sallians out there enjoyed that part too!

Cameras were flashing everywhere after that since it was the last day of LPEP for us. Goodbyes were said and hugs were met as we marched our way home. Siyempre nobody forgets to sign out. ;p

A portion from the I.D. picture taking and medical day. (May 15)

As my mom and I entered the La Sallian halls to find the room designated for picture taking, I felt happy that my mom was there with me. When we arrived at the location of the room, a male student was there, fumbling over ado with his necktie. As my mom offered her help, I went out of the scene to look for a comfort room where I could change into a collared blouse.

As I was walking back towards the room, I noticed that my mom was nowhere to be found. All I could see was a line of 3 men, wearing their polos pero they were holding their ties up. Pretty soon, I saw my mom working on a guy's tie. As I was nearing their line, I heard the guy say "Thank you po! Buti na lang po andito kayo!" My mom introduced me to them as soon as I was in their zone, sadly they didn't brief me with their names or courses. When it was my turn to have my photograph taken, I forgot to sit up straight rendering a not so good picture. My signature was nothing but a total mess.

The guys I met earlier remained faithful to my mom! Ha ha. One of them asked us if he could join us in our search for the Waldo room. Anyway. So much for that..

material baby.

9:21 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

I don't usually buy stuff for myself even if it is a need so I decided to write about things I would LOVE to receive during my freshman days. Although not in order, I hope you'd get the point.

1. Laptop
laptop

Duh? Does that need any more a-do? I mean, it may not be reaaally needed right now pero it weighs more than a want. My parents can afford it pero they insist that I should wait for the right time. Hmm..

2. DSLR a.k.a. professional camera
camera

OK. So this one is far from being a need unless I wanna get down and dirty serious with being into photography. It's pretty much off the budget too so I wouldn't waste my time asking for it. A fisheye lomocam will do for now pero considering the fact that I don't even have a lomocam really gives me a twist in the wind right now.

3. A new phone
samsung

My cp's been with me for over a year now and I usually change mine every year. It's sad that my parents don't think about it as a current need. Do you? Anyway.. I do. My present phone sucks.

4. New books to read
Screwtape Letters

That is what I really want to read right now. It's not really expensive pero I don't really have the money right now.

Other books:
*Complete Narnia Series
*5 people you meet in heaven
*Chicken soup for the college soul

5. A printer
printer Lexmark Z31

Mine is functioning pretty well right now pero super bagal and take note: black and white lang. So when I have to print pictures for school or any other paper that needs colored ink in them, I have to transfer pa to my Dad's printer. :s

6. A new stuffed toy friend
Photobucket

As some of you may not know, I talk to stuffed toys. I believe that they have feelings too. Powered and/or strengthened by the movie Mr. Magnorium's Wonder Emporium, I strongly believe that they understand our feelings and that at night, they kiss us to sleep. Anyway.. I feel like my teddy bear is so tired of my endless river of problems. ;c

7. Red shoelaces
Photobucket

My shoes simply need a makeover.

Hmm.. Can't really think of anything anymore right now so maybe I'd just edit this sometime this week.

analysis thingy : D

5:55 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (1)

I got this analysis thingy from a blogger's site, looked for it in the internet and gave it a shot. Click this if you feel like taking the same online test. : )

Well.. Most of the results are true. Here's how to identify: the ones in violet are oh-so-true in my opinion especially the ones in large, bold font. Those italicized phrases and in green are merely comments.

Ana is moderately outgoing. Her emotions are stirred by sympathy and heart rendering stories. In fact, she can be kind, friendly, affectionate and considerate of others. She has the ability to put herself into the other person's shoes. (Yup. Thankyouverymuch. Try it sometime.. It's very fulfilling.)

Ana will be somewhat moody, with highs and lows. Sometimes she will be happy, the next day she might be sad. She has the unique ability to get along equally well with what psychology calls introverts and extroverts. This is because she is in between. Psychology calls Ana an ambivert. She understands the needs of both types. Although they get along, she will not tolerate anyone that is too "far out." She doesn't sway too far one way or the other. (you got that right!)

When convincing her to buy a product or an idea, a heart rendering story could mean a great deal to her. She puts herself in the same situation as the person in the story, yet she will not buy anything that seems overly impractical or illogical. Ana is an expressive person. She outwardly shows her emotions. She may even show traces of tears when hearing a sad story. (Yeah. I reaaally do..)

Ana is a "middle-of-the-roader," politically as well as logically. She weighs both sides of an issue, sits on the fence, and then will decide when she finally has to. She basically doesn't relate to any far out ideas and usually won't go to the extreme on any issue. (pero sometimes, i really go into extremes..)

People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Ana doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others. (I don't express myself to strangers.)

Ana is secretive. She has secrets which she does not wish to share with others. She intentionally conceals things about herself. She has a private side that she intends to keep that way, especially concerning certain events in her past.

Ana has a desire for attention. People around Ana will notice this need. She may fulfill this need by a variety of ways depending on her own character. (Bullseye! I am sooo like this..)

In reference to Ana's mental abilities, she has a very investigating and creating mind. She investigates projects rapidly because she is curious about many things. She gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but she soon must slow down and look at all the angles. She probably gets too many things going at once. When Ana slows down, then she becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, she must slow down to do it. She then decides what projects she has time to finish. Thus she finishes at a slower pace than when she started the project.

She has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. Her mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. She can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Ana can then switch into her low gear. (I wanna work fast pero i take the time to think about it muna before i start.) When she is in the slower mode, she can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. She is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip.

Ana is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth. This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem. (I hope I'm normal!) She needs to visualize the end of a project before she starts. (ahem.. As i said earlier..) She finds joy in anticipation and planning. Notice that I said she plans everything she is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned. Ana basically feels good about herself. (Minsan nga lang..) She has a positive self-esteem which contributes to her success. She feels she has the ability to achieve anything she sets her mind to. However, she sets her goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach". She has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, she will not take great risks, as they relate to her goals. A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence category, her self-perception is better than average. (Not really better than average..)

Ana has a temper. She uses this as a defense mechanism when she doesn't understand how to handle a situation. (Nu-uh.. I usually tend to be sarcastic and childish..) Temper is a hostile trait used to protect the ego. Temper can be a negative personality trait in the eyes of those around her.

Ana is selective when picking friends. She does not trust everyone. She has a select group of people that are truly close to her, usually two or three. (More than 3 naman..) She is careful when choosing her inner circle of friends. (I've been like this for as long as i remember.)


For a graphologist, the spacing on the page reflects the writer's attitude toward their own world and relationship to things in his or her own space. If the inputted data was correct Ana has left lots of white space on the all four borders of the paper. Ana fills up just the center area of the page. If this is true, then Ana has a particular shyness toward people and a fear of moving too fast in any direction. In some cultures, respecting people, rules, and adhering to protocol are ways of life.

The right side of the page represents the future and the left side represents the past. Ana seems a bit stuck in the middle, afraid to take action.

Ana seems to have a fear of looking bad or of crossing boundaries. It will be easy to work with Ana on a team, because Ana will usually follow the rules. However, this desire to respect the boundaries can often be construed as a lack of confidence and people will walk over Ana if she is not careful. (Hmm.. I'm thinking about it now and I find myself remembering moments in life wherein I was bullied and stepped on. SAD.)

I am Legend.

7:52 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

I have a totally lame title.

I woke up this morning feeling hopeless and emotionally drained. I was really confused since I didn't expect myself to react that way to a good dream plus my mom and I were laughing our hearts out last night. Well.. This morning, everything felt still. It was as if i was alone and helpless (Whooo.. I am Legend!) and it didn't feel right. A thousand thoughts raced through my head like what if I am really alone and there's no food in the fridge, or what if it was the end of the world and a serial killer was after my family. Suddenly an idea struck me for good- to leave the room and see what's out there for myself. Pretty sensible, right?

The good news was that my parents were still there. My mom was writing something down and was about to leave the house for work and my dad was reading the newspaper and drinking coffee. Right then and there, I realized something- that even if we had been craving for independence(that is.. if you are.), we still depend on our parents BIG TIME. I mean... It may not be in financial terms like allowances(which is reaaally important too!) but it may be in terms of care, love and a lot more. We still depend on them for true UNCONDITIONAL love, security found in a hug and warmth from their sometimes annoying kisses.

Well... Enough about that. Maybe i'll write more on that this upcoming Mother's day. ..or not. : D

I am currently baking muffins. Whooo.. Hope it tastes good. : ) Want some? Weee..

first post. ü

5:21 PM / Posted by ana Ü / comments (0)

Whew! After a lot of mind boggling minutes, I finally created one. Umm.. Actually I have another one in livejournal pero it sucks more than I do. Ha ha.. Hindi kasi masyadong napag-isipan yun.. I think I'm settling here for good. I was inspired by some blogs that come from here so I decided to create one too (not for the sake of copying - I don't suffer from having an identity crisis!) because I'd really wanna inspire other people thru this blog, that is if I can. Hmm..?

I think I'd start this entry with some facts about me. I'm 15 (turning 16 on December!), youngest of 2. I had my elementary and preschool days in one school and had my secondary lessons in MunSci. I am currently entering La Salle as a freshman. I'm half-scared and half-excited. Duh. Who wouldn't be? I am NOT outgoing so I guess I'd have a hard time getting to know a lot of people in school but don't worry, I'd still try.. Right? T.T

I have a difficulty in Science but I'm happy to say that I do good in Math and English. Well It's pretty much in the genes.. My Dad's an accountant and Mom's a teacher in English and not to be outdone, my Lola's reaaally sharp in Math too! Someday, I wanna be a teacher. ..more of a principal-teacher. My future that lies ahead of me is already fixed so I have no choice. It's ok though, kasi I like what I'm expected to do naman eh.

I l-o-v-e food.
