Why is Glee raking up the nominations in the Emmys? It’s the first time I actually tuned in but I can’t believe they actually GOT THAT MANY nominations in the comedy categories! And to think Community isn’t even IN THERE. Injustice! Parks and Recreations was mentioned so maybe I’ll try that series out sometime

Not that I don’t like Glee, I like it really. I’m glad for nominations of Chris Colpher as Kurt and Jane Lynch as Sue but the rest… am not sure. Am soo glad that Neil Patrick Harris got a nom as Barney Stinson in How I Met Your Mother and Jim Parsons as Sheldon Cooper in Big Bang Theory. I really need to see the hype of 30 Rock and see if it’s really as funny and the other ones mentioned too. Gyah!

Anyway some Acapella versions of Glee songs, check the channel for more

I think my past 3 consecutive posts have started with me apologizing for not updating that frequently but I think I’ll just stop saying it because then my posts will have become redundant. And I don’t want to read the same thing over and over again (unless of course it’s Harry Potter or a good read heeehee) too so I’ll save you guys the trouble. I’ve just come to accept the fact that I won’t be posting like crazy like the past months. I actually can’t believe that I always post so few during June. *check my past archive XD* I guess it’s because it’s always the start of a new school year but this year it’s different. Actually this whole later half of the year will be different, I’ll be going out of the country in August and I can’t imagine being able to maintain my site for four months. Hell, I just realized this problem… I hope that I’ll still be able to update though!

It’s still a miracle that I still get comments THANK YOU SO MUCH!! And I’ve been getting 100 spam comments now a week and some I don’t even want to erase because of these *but of course you know they’re spam coz… uh why would a guy name “buy new home” say all those?*

Click for full view

LOL really I’ve been really amused at the new spam comments! But of course then I’m starting to get pron comments too, UGH. A word from a spammer to you spammers:

“I truly pray spammers peruse these articles and take a look at how simple and easy it has been to be human and respect knowledge.”

Seriously, that’s what Sheri Rusboldt with i.p. address 173.234.122.5 said. So yeah spammers, BE HUMAN XD

I’ve been feeling so… I don’t know, weird (well I’m always weird…), desolate, emo and all that crap the past few weeks. In philosophy, I’ve learned that desorbitation causes these kinds of feelings and I think I am experiencing desorbitation. It’s the loss of not of something, but of SOMEPLACE, of the WHOLE thing/being actually. I mean think about it. If you lost for example a car key, you’d definitely be able to find it, because it’s tangible and all. But what if you *knock on wood* failed the biggest exam that would determine your future? What did you lose really? The test score? The feeling? What? You’ve probably lost the reason for living or something. Well… I think I’ve lost something… I’m just not sure on what.

For this post, I’m going to keep it short and let you guys do the talking. A friend of mine asked this question recently….

“If money wasn’t an issue, nor expectations from peers and family, what would your job be? What do you want do?”

Well I’d answer: founder of a wildlife preserve in Africa, South America and maybe China. I’d want to help in the environment. I’d also want to be a food taster, be in broadway, be a voice actress. How about you guys?

And some random links around the Web-iverse:
1. RACIST CASTING OF THE LAST AIRBENDER AND HOW IT’LL SUCK (AND IT DID SUCK WITH 8% IN ROTTENTOMATOES)
- I have a lot to say about this. I don’t understand why M. Night Shyamalan (who’s Indian)could not cast an Asian-American in the roles of Aang, or an Indian American for the good guys. They even chose Patel as Zuko who’s an Indian and he’s part of the bad guys. Really, read the article. It explains everything more thoroughly. Check out the Casting Call poster for Aang and tell me if it’s not racist at all. Man, I thought they learned their lesson from that HORRIBLE Dragonball movie.

2. Paranormal Activity#2 Trailer anyone?

- who’s in it for another ride? If you look carefully, there’s actually something wrong in the trailer XD

3. Cute music video starring Emma Watson (and her boyfriend! funny there’s more focus on Emma than the actual band). Say You Don’t Want It by One Night Only

I actually really like the music video Well cheerio guys!!!

Wizarding World of Harry Potter FINALLY OPENS TO THE PUBLIC!

Even if you’re not a Harry Potter fan, you must at least be excited for the fact now you can go in castles, DRINK BUTTERBEER (this will be the first thing I’ll do), ride dragons, ride broomsticks, go to Zonko’s joke shop, candy shop and I’m sure a WHOLE LOADS MORE after a few years of more construction and renovation. Good thing I’ll probably be able to go there after uh.. 5 years? Well that’s an estimate anyway and it could change but I gotta save meself some money first!

The cast of Harry Potter were there on the grand opening and it was simply magical! It’s best to check out the videos here and just be WOW-ED!

Does anybody plan to go there anytime soon this year? All I can say is that good luck with the early LINES (and to think that picture was cut, making the line even LONGER)!! I wish there was a floo powder system too or at least even a broomstick system! Too bad there’s no technology for that yet XD

I’VE FINALLY WATCHED FRIGGING TOY STORY 3!
I’m a Pixar baby through and through and I can recite all the films in chronological order and even directors to what films and also some trivia about them though I’ve still got a LOT to learn. So watching Toy Story is a treat! Toy Story isn’t exactly my favorite Disney or Pixar film but as a franchise, it’s the best there is! Check out the rottentomatoes link above and you’ll see all 3 Toy Storys with 100% rating each (except for Toy Story 3 at 99% because some douchebags “critics – 2 of them actually – like Armond White gave it a rotten rating. I swear that guy is insane because he also rottened Up, An Education while freshed Jonah Hex and then compared Transformers 2 to Toy Story 3…. you get the idea of my hate) and they frigging DESERVE IT. Toy Story 3 was such a compelling and moving film. I didn’t know that a franchise could build up to become better and better. We didn’t get this feeling watching Star Wars. Heck we didn’t even get this feeling in 99% of the trilogies (well am biased to my Lord of the Rings fandom so I say it’s equal to that) but Toy Story stands out.

Its marketing strategy calls it the GREAT ESCAPE but it’s more than that. It’s about moving on, dealing with friendship, growing up, making more friends and living on. It incorporates good humor and some slapstick comedy too but that’s what adds the charm to it. It was just too bad that some new toys were only given a few screen time. I would have loved to know more about the toys in Sunnydale. Ken and Barbie are HILARIOUS and you’ll be missing a few characters too.

All I can say is that you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. I had super high expectations from this and again Pixar has exceeded the bar they set up. Unlike The Karate Kid remake (Kung Fu Kid) which was also awesome, I had super low expectations so going over the bar was of no problem. But Toy Story is another class of its own. There are flaws, some things that you may not like but that’s probably only 0.001% of the film. Mr. Potato Head by the way creates one of the most hilarious moments in CINEMA HISTORY. Okay that’s pushing it but it’s just me. I’d watch this film again and again.

OH!! 3D does nothing for it by the way. I suggest watching it in 2D where you can watch in peace. Watch Step Up 3 in 3D but NOT TOY STORY 3. Save yourselves some few bucks. The trailers had more use of 3D. And Woody and Buzz will be appearing in a short right before Cars 2 next year! We’ll still see them!

Watch the cast and crew talk about what’s in store for you guys

I don’t even want to comment about this anymore. I really don’t know what to expect. I remember watching smurfs and playing it on the video game and I can’t imagine them having a plot where they actually go to the REAL WORLD. And it doesn’t help that Neil Patrick Harris will be voicing one of the leads. How about you guys? What are your thoughts? I’m just… uh another popcorn flick?

California Dorks

Have you guys watched Katy Perry’s California Gurls official music video? It’s… um.. unusual and doesn’t really portray California (just a lot of girls and skin XD) at all but you’re in Candyland. So is that a metaphor of California? O_O Howell.

I definitely loved this parody video better though because maybe… I’m a nerd, a geek (am not sure if dork is the right term for the people he’s mentioning in the video) or whatever so it’s definitely a music video you can “get”. haha! Anyway I really liked it! I’d love to make a parody of something too.

For those wo want to sing-along, here are the lyrics!

Yey am so glad that everyone enjoyed the egg house in the last post! You guys are awesome you know? For telling me it’s okay to update only once a week or when I only feel like it… but I do have this urge of blogging every after 4 days and it pains me I can’t do it. I’ve now got a midterm and long exam next week and I really can’t wait until History (Philippine History & Rizal) IS OVER! It’s ruining my life!

Oh by the way guys! Posts marked with *POST TITLE* are BLOG REVIEWS and don’t really make any sense and are MADE UP 99% of the time. So if I said I talked to a friend or have a strange opinion, it’s not me. It’s just the ingenuity or lack thereof that’s acting there, so hopefully I didn’t offend anyone here…

I’ve been studiously learning French with Rosetta Stone *cough cough* and I just bought Berlitz’s Phrase Book and Dictionary as my friend Cheryl suggested. I would really recommend it because it has tips on pronunciation and categorized in particular situations such as shopping etc! Rosetta Stone is AWESOME too because it’s really VERY INTERACTIVE. Heck they don’t even have translations! They’ll only show pictures and their corresponding French word and now it’s up to you to remember and associate them. Rosetta Stone aims to boost your intuition and I’d recommend it for ANY LANGUAGE. I’m planning to get *cough cough* one for Spanish, Korean and Japanese again sometime. Maybe German too.

My phrase book wee

Again nothing is going on with my life except my friends and I just ate a GODZILLA BURRITO (it was around 2.5kg!!) and we finally watched IRONMAN 2!! *Robert Downey Jr. HOTNESS!! Scarlett Johansson HOTNESS ZOMG!!!* I just fainted I think.... XD Ironman 2 ROCKED the whole theatre but... I don't know... I felt something missing... but RDJ DID SUPERB AS USUAL ahahhaa!!

Big-Ass Burrito!

Nothing happened again this week… I mean we just built a paper tower during Software Engineering class (it’s for team building! Our prof says! and it patterns the management system of projects and stuff) and I found this idea on the net of using the accordion style for great balance but it was very vulnerable to the wind. Good thing it rained and we built in down the steps so that we’d escape the harsh winds! Man did you know that that day was probably the first time it rained after weeks of drought? GAWD!

First Tower Before it Fell minutes before judging

2nd Tower and More stable! WOOT WE WON! XD

This is still going to be a short post, just want to share with you guys this AMAZING architect in Hong Kong! Imagine yourself living in just say… 330 square feet! In an APARTMENT! This dude has just found a way to transform it into 24 different kinds of rooms! It’s really amazing! Remember the egg house that I shared in my last post? It’s something like this too but more amazing in my opinion Too bad you can’t install this in the egg room XD

Or…. can you?? Watch it guys! Just 4 minutes

Before I go, just want to share with you guys my lists! I’ve finally updated my Shelfari library though it’s still incomplete! I’ve added my lists of tv shows including anime (movies and music are still on the way!) in Listal so if you guys have any of these accounts, ADD ME!!

Thanks again guys for not laughing at me in my last video XD

I have to go all nerd mode and read a TON of readings. Once I get them, I’ll show you a picture of it. I was so excited at first when I found out that I was going to take History 165: Rizal under Ambeth Ocampo (he’s a famous historian and has a column in the Philippine Daily Inquirer) and I’ve been getting good reviews of his class and how fun and whacked out his tests and classes are (imagine, one question in his test: Recount the Battle of Mactan in a FISH’S point of view. Guess who got an A? The guy who answered GLUB GLUB GLUB GLUB GLUB back to back) or maybe Ma’am Espena who gives out CRAZY bonus points despite tough long exams. Well instead, 2 days before summer classes, we were informed that we would be taking Ma’am Garilao’s class! And to my horror my brother laughed at me and told me that I was DOOMED. DOOMED BECAUSE OF THE MT. EVEREST-SIZED READINGS. I was already feeling so bad but I still had hope. Maybe I can still transfer sections but it turns out that all their classes were full. And today, just the 2nd day of summer classes, I have already read 12 chapters of Noli Me Tangere (in English) and read the first reading. I have 3 inches of readings AND THAT’S JUST THE HALF OF IT. I wanted to tell ma’am, WE AREN’T LAWYERS! We’re not supposed to read this much IN A MONTH!

But of course we must strive for greatness, MAGIS as Ateneans would say. We have to be MORE and maybe I just might survive her class. I’m determined to finish at least more than 1/4 of her readings this week because I have 4 MORE CLASSES NEXT WEEK. 3 Computer subjects plus PHILOSOPHY which has a TON OF READINGS (i think?) too. Howell, I must concentrate on that POT OF GOLD at the end of the rainbow!

Hopefully you know, after all this hard work, after college, I’ll be part of something big. Like this guy who created a DIGITAL PERSONAL ASSISTANT like the one you see in Ironman (I CAN’T WAIT FOR IRONMAN 2! RDJ!! ). Crap, he can even talk, text and interact with Jarvis. Jarvis even reminds him of things he has to do and tracks the occupants of his apartment (including the dogXD). How...COOL....IS....THAT??!

Imagine the possibilities of his creation, would there soon be a Jarvis PA that will be sold to consumers sometime in the near future (like in 10 years? I think it’s possible!)? What would you like your Digital Personal Assistant to do? Check his youtube channel for more updates!

Can I just say for the 100000000+++ time that it’s insanely hot here? T_T Here’s a pic around 5:30pm. More personal pics to be posted in my project 365!

To calm myself down, I’d usually listen to classical music. Classical music is probably my favorite genre because… I don’t know… it’s sort of an escape from our worries and stresses in the world. The notes, the melody and the tone… it would soothe your soul and it doesn’t matter if you can’t sing… i mean just go on with the melody… I don’t know. It really just gets me . When my friend showed me this video of this awesome guy who turns pop music into classicalized popular music. I think what he’s doing is just… AMAZING and I honestly some of these more than the original ones. I’m not that much into electronic sounds so the violin, viola etc all sound more pleasing for me. I’m now into Harmonica too because of Bob Dylan! Anyway guys, I blabber too much, just listen to his version of KE$HA’s Tik Tok

Or good news of course cheer me up. I don’t know why… but when payperpost emailed me for sponsored posts that match, one offer had a $5,000 BOUNTY ON IT!! ZOMG ! I instantly clicked I’m Interested but I doubt that it’ll be give to me XD But it just shows that there is a possibility! A possibility anyway. hahaa or I watch WACKY VIDEOS LIKE THIS. PLEASE GUYS WATCH. YOU’LL NEVER STOP LAUGHING! (This kid reminds me of someone I KNOW PERSONALLY XD goshh!)

***Comment freely***

I want to give a shout out to my BRAVEST READER (the reader who watched all the videos in my last post, watch the others if you still haven’t! :D) GENEVE!! Thank you so much for watching them all but I want to give a shoutout to Georgina for commenting for most of the content in my last post! *hugz* It’s so wonderful to see visitors who can read and comment (maybe not about everything) a lot and share also their experiences with you when they’ve read your post. It’s a wonderful feeling for me so I really thank you to everyone (even those who don’t comment!) who take the time to read, listen and watch through everything. I appreciate it very much!

I’m not saying that I get hurt when nobody reads my blog, it’s just that… this blog isn’t supposed to be kept a secret. This little site of mine is meant to be read by people because of this love I have for sharing things. There are only very few personal topics here in my site because I’ve reserved that for my other blog. So I really appreciate those who take the time and effort to go here. YOU ROCK AND KEEP THIS SITE ON LIVING!

Oh and nobody got what my title signifies! It’s referring to LADY GAGA + BEYONCE’S MUSIC VIDEO TELEPHONE! OMG IF YOU GUYS HAVEN’T SEEN THIS YET… MY GADD…. I won’t comment anymore XD XD

I was going to make another video-enhanced post but thought, one post is enough and maybe I’ll do that again next time XD I’m going to post some vids though! TEEHEE

Congratulations to my brother by the way because he got the AUSTRALIAN GIG! He’s an AIESEC-er (do tell me if you guys are a part of AIESEC or if your university has AIESEC) and was one of the few chosen to apply for internships abroad! He’s applied from India to Norway but he finally sealed a deal with an Australian University that pays well! Not gonna reveal how much, just gonna say that it’s kinda big for an intern and an employee! So happy for him! He’s going to be leaving soon though, NEXT MONTH! I’m so gonna be sad though because I’ll be left alone again at home and I’ve got nobody to bug at home anymore It’s so sad…

He’ll be off eating Fairy bread (yes, YOU’VE READ THAT RIGHT!) like this

Holy crapping crap, I can’t believe this really. My brother is actually going to work now and I’ll be working soon in 2 years (well that’s the plan XD and I’m glad that I’m earning even before I have a real job, :P was an assistant teacher too last summer for Chinese :P)!

SCARY but EXCITING at the same time! I can’t wait to be free from the struggles of college! NEXT WEEK IS OUR FINALS! WISH ME LUCK GUYS!! I am soo happy that everything will be over (at least for 2 weeks) and I get to rest now! PHEW!

WELCOME THOUGH TO HARD-FRIGGING-WORK/REAL LIFE SOON! XD But hopefully I’ll be able to get a gig in Pixar or anywhere that I love, so it won’t feel like work too much

Remember my last post about music? Like how it was the universal language for all of us? It’s true that mathematics can arguably be also our universal language but I’m in music’s side. I just didn’t realize, never knew… that MUSIC IS RESTRICTED IN SOME COUNTRIES. Especially in Islamic countries where they think that music actually makes you lazy and should only be used to glorify Allah. I’m not saying it’s a bad rule but to the point where people actually say that say that contestants in their Pop Idol contest SHOULD BE KILLED… is saying something else. I mean these people aren’t even SINGING RAP/METAL. They’re just singing and this means freedom to them. This is an expression of themselves and it is sad that it should be restricted so! I want to watch this documentary that follows the journey of the top four contestants. Anyway here’s a better summary from TheMovieBlog,

“After 30 years of war and Taliban-rule, pop culture has returned to Afghanistan. Afghan Star – a Pop Idol-style TV series – is searching the country for the next generation of music stars. Over 2000 people are auditioning and even three women have come forward to try their luck. The organizers, Tolo TV, believe with this programme they can ‘move people from guns to music’.

But in a troubled country like Afghanistan, even music is controversial. Considered sacrilegious by the Mujahiddeen and outright banned by the Taliban (1996-2001), music has come to symbolize freedom for the youth. While the conflict still rages many of those taking part are literally risking their lives.”

I hope that there might be some slight changes in Islam but that is so unlikely… or I mean, people should have this freedom there. I really don’t see anything wrong in singing with all your heart. We sing not just for ourselves anyway, we sing for our loved ones and probably for them, definitely for their Allah. This is certainly such a controversial topic! What are your views on this my friends? Here’s a good article too.

Haha on a more cheery note, my brother has stumbled upon this CRAAZZYYY SIITEE!! It’s lamebook. It’s facebook but with lame on it. XD

Sorry, pathetic joke. But that’s what’s lamebook is all about. It shows you the craziest things people have EVER written in their facebook (sometimes I wish these are just lies but I think that these are actually genuine, i am really losing faith in humanity. xD)

Some soup-y examples:

Not exactly from lamebook but still funny XD

Okay well some aren’t that funny but if you find something that’s note worthy, do share it with us! I didn’t find this in lamebook, but it’s probably the BEST FACEBOOK COMIC EVER. Because it’s…. World War: FACEBOOK VERSION! Because of the length, I have to spoiler it for you guys

CORRECTION: It was actually Seunghyun in my last post who I had 1 second eye contact with and had me going <3 and not Jaejin, want to read my giddy/kilig moment? Read my last post!

Hey guys!!! Long overdue post in my opinion because gaack… if there were such thing as the BEST BUM award, I’d be it this week because I didn’t blog or bloghop because I didn’t have the time nor because I was busy, I was actually kinda free but I just didn’t have the energy to do anything…. sorry guys! Now I am quite and now because I have SOO MANY things to do in the final 2 weeks AS A SOPHOMORE. Crappity crap, I really can’t believe that time flies so fast! I am soo doomed because I still have to do my Database project, Math project (thank heavens we’re done with our ELECTRONICS project!) History finals, 2 Science Long exams (this subject is quite useless they say but I really find it fascinating!), Database finals, project presentation, Math finals GAACKKK

I AM SERIOUSLY DEAD. And the approaching semester (I’d be going to school right after my 2 weeks of vacation for my advance semester before Junior term abroad) requires about 7 SUBJECTS (well 2 subjects will only last for about a month but meeting is EVERDAY). SAY GOODBYE TO TIFF K NOW. SAY GOODBYYE FOR SHE WILL DIE BEFORE SHE IS ABLE TO LEAVE IN AUGUST/SEPTEMBER!

Sighs… Sad fate. Well onto other news…

GOT A NEW HAIRCUT hahaha! Nothing changed much, Just trimmed it up to my shoulders. It doesn’t always look like this though, usually it’s still messy and fly away GAACKK HATE MY HAIR
SEE HAIR ▼

This will be a sort of random post, please excuse my scrambled thoughts.

Have you ever experienced getting giddy because of a very romantic line in a movie? To the point that you feel your heart melting when you hear it? (for me it could be the line of Mr. Darcy in the 2006 Pride and Prejudice when he says, “One word from you will silence me forever” HOLY COW I MELTED THERE <3 <3) Or maybe you'd really feel the adrenaline once the hero says something? Well these could probably called the best lines but the more interesting ones are the worst lines EVER SAID. Come on, we'd had that moment of CRINGING. I'd like to hear from you though what are the worst quotes you've heard in a movie, but I'd like to broaden that and say what is the worst quote for you OF ALL TIME! (so it can be something that your brother, a stranger, etc has said). Here are a list of THE WORST MOVIE QUOTES.

For me Worst quote in a movie, definitely STORM’S IN X-MEN. Will you just READ it.

“You know what happens when a toad gets struck by lightning?

The same thing that happens to everything else.”

WHAT THE CRAP WAS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?? It had me at first and then I wanted to barf at HOW BAD THAT WAS. What the crap… XD XD It had me doubling in laughter too. Wanted to press this NOOOO BUTTON (try it guys! It’s so much fun especially it has Darth Vader’s voice!)

Reminds me of the episodes in Cracked.com’s that are soo hilarious!! You have to browse through them! Here’s a sample XD This actually scared me a little because I can’t believe HOW MAD the world is XD

Another fun video for you guys is THIS! Gosh, do you guys know Lonely Island? It’s comprised of two hilarious rappers who sing the WEIRDEST things such as my favorites, “I’m On A Boat” & “We Like Sportz”. Seriously youtube them guys! But now I’d like to share with you a segment of SNL where the lead rapper actually sings “ON THE GROUND” It’ll really make you go WTF and laugh. I can’t stop laughing!! XD XD It’s so senseless and OUTRAGEOUS!

“This isn’t my dad, IT’S A CEL PHONE!”

You won’t get that if you don’t watch it XD promise XD

Oh I’ve also picked this up from a friend, AN INTERACTIVE HORROR MOVIE??? WHAT THE CRAP?? Would you guys go see this?

I’d definitely would and it’d be soo exciting because it’d probably either bore you or scare you out of your minds. I think that I’d be just interested in it and not be really scared. I do like Horror movies! Man what the Germans can think up eh?

Okay… now on to something… I’ve also been avoiding the net because I’m again feeling down No it’s not of the same sentiments as my last post but I can’t explain it. So I’ll just let music do the talking. I thank Clairessa again for sharing such wonderful music, I think she and I have the same tastes!! I am now officially a FAN of Florence + The Machine and I think that Florence is a GENIUS. If you think Lady Gaga is a genius, then you have someone who is more brilliant and who is able to dress normally to boot! This is again my opinion I’m going to buy her CD (yes guys, NOT DOWNLOADED FOR ONCE!) and that really says something. I am converted and I do love her songs! Favorites include “Dog Days Are Over”, “Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up)” and “Drumming Song”.

So here’s what I’m feeling… “Between Two Lungs” can you guess what it means? I’m so excited to see your interpretations of this song!

Become a fan? Check out her other amazing and crazy videos! ▼

Oh yeah my good friend Ate Laine is selling some of her books for just 30-50php!! Check it out at her multiply!

P.S. I am hating America (those who are voting on American Idol anyways… sorry sorry sorry! I am just so frustrated!) because THEY FRIGGING BOOTED OUT THE WRONG PEOPLE ARGHHFHG HATE HATE HATE!! I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING TO STOP WATCHING!! I thought that it’d be next year when I’d stop watching because SIMON IS FRIGGING GONE. NOW THEY DO THIS, AM GONNA BOYCOTT A-IDOL!!

Everything has a beginning and everything has an end. Whoever said that matter is neither created nor destroyed is BULL because there is the creation of the universe and unless everything was just like instant noodles, then we’d assume that the universe was here all along. There is then no concept of time or anything because a human being just can’t fathom such vast knowledge. Remember that scene in Indiana Jones (the latest one, the one that didn’t live up to its predecessors actually) when Cate Blanchett’s character was absorbing all the knowledge of the universe from *TOOOT* (no spoilers here! XD) and she couldn’t take it and was blown to smithereens? Well I imagine that that would happen to me if I know everything. I believe that God created all so matter did have a creation. sort of Haha And as for the end… will the universe end? Well go back to Indiana Jones story and you’ll know my answer. I think that if it is meant to be known, we’ll know then or probably after life.

Sorry for such an “emo” introduction but I can’t help thinking about the past, the present and the future now. It all connects to saying goodbyes. I hate saying goodbyes especially to the people I love. I really disagree with Elton John and I think that somtimes, Sorry isn’t the hardest word. Goodbye is. Sometimes you can’t even say it. You can’t even look at the person (okay maybe sometimes sorry is really hard to say coz you also get these symptoms) and you can’t help but look away or don’t even attend the departure of that person anymore. I’m not good at adapting, this is why I sucked when we changed sections in grade four. And it also sucked when I had to say goodbye to 2 of my best friends because they were changing schools. I thought that nothing would change even after that but… OF COURSE IT DID. I had even MORE trouble saying goodbye to my dogs (when they passed away) and then saying goodbye to my brother when he went to Portugal for his Junior Term Abroad a year ago and I did shed a tear

And now one of my closest blockmates is going to Korea for 9 months for this sponsored exchange program and I am genuinely happy for her because this is such a BIG opportunity and plus she’ll be going to her dream country and probably meet up with Korean boy bands and get a Korean boyfriend and I am so happy for her! This is a dream come true! But to see one of the closest person in the block, one of the nicest persons you’ve ever met just go away for 9 months, you suddenly imagine all sorts of things like what would happen to you when you get left behind. Things would definitely change.

And I think of my own sojourn to France this September – December. I’ll be pondering on how I’ll be taking this, and how my parents would be taking this too and how everything would change. There must be a beginning to everything but it means the ending of a phase. Of a stage. Of something important but it’s the beginning of an opportunity also!

HOW CRUEL LIFE IS!

*pauses and contemplates…meditates…*

Okay I feel a little better now

I just attended my first Kpop concert, F.T. Island’s, ever with Gie (she’s the one going to Korea!) and I was even HESITANT of going! Well one thing, I wasn’t a true fan (heck I didn’t even know the names of the members, their songs except for one, the theme song of You Are Beautiful <- AWESOME telenovela for my international friends who love these kinds of things. WATCH IT) but it was the first event that my aunt organized and I decided to support her(plus it was discounted)! And plus Gie really wanted to go so it'll be a bonding moment for us! It was also her first concert EVER. I was soo thankful that it was in an enclosed area. I swear, concerts in the Philippines SHOULD BE ENCLOSED. Even if open-grounds concerts are fun, IT'S JUST TOO BLASTED EFFING CRAPPING F$%^$^(&$&& HOT HUMID HOT HOT HOT!!!! Really, it's just the first week of March and EVERYTHING IS SCORCHING. I SWEAR IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE AND I'M GONNA MELT. I'LL MAKE MY REFRIGERATOR MY NEW HOME! Swear.... ARGH!!

Okay where was I? Oh yeah. CONCERT! IT WAS SOO MUCH FUN!! Because the singers talked to the audience (with the help of an interpreter host, haha XD IT WAS FUNNY!) and plus... I never realized that some of them LOOK GOOD IN PERSON. I actually didn't think of them cute in the posters but when you see them in person... you'd want to melt! And I liked 2 of the guys there, the one at the leftmost and at the rightmost. We were at the leftmost side but had a good view as we all shifted to the right too. XD And the thing was... I couldn't help but...ASSUME (but remember kiddos, assuming is BBAADDD) that Jaejin (leftmost dude) was looking at somebody at our side because... he KEPT LOOKING AT US!!! Swear, and I don't know, he'd even WAVE AT US. I don't know if I should assume that there was 1 second of eye contact between us.. HAHAHAA Okay I'm assuming too much but it would have been nice to say, "HEY I was able to make eye contact with a star, even for just 1 SECOND!" XD Haha am desperate much. Sorry guys! Didn't know the name of rightmost guy but he was the cutest!

Show was AWESOME but it was too short in my opinion aww man...

So some pics!

Gie and Me

The boys + their drummer not in picture XD haha!!

And for the last parting words… WATCH THIS CUTE LITTLE CHUBBY CAAT! One of the biggest cats I’ve seen!

Thank you for all those who advised me on which netbooks to get. I really appreciate it but for the meantime, my best friend and I have decided to delay our purchase because it’d be better to order later in the year and nearer to our departure date. Maybe finally then ASUS will release a grown up Disney laptop… I’m thinking of buying in the US because laptops there are cheaper! Hope that some of mum’s friends come home in July. But oh dear!! Only 5 and 1/2 months away until… I get my independence!! Well a little independence at least!

This is just a quick post. Suddenly I had this sudden urge to post…. about something… and that something is…

MAGIC.

Okay not the hocus pocus kind of magic. It’s this charm that some people have that will make turn you into jelly just because of their talents. Have you ever had the experience of stopping dead in your tracks, as in you’ve stopped eating, breathing, doing your assignments or whatever to just waste a few minutes just so you could listen or watch him/her? Well that happened to me twice this week and it’s all because of their TALENT.

It’s official, I simply love talent shows. Look what Britain’s Got Talent gave us, SUSAN BOYLE. I swear I cried after watching that audition. I mean just to see her unconsciously SLAP the audience’s faces by singing with all she had just… just brought tears to my eyes *thus the Cheesy title, my gosh…* And then you have American Idol (ALEX LAMBERT IS OFFICIALLY MY FAVORITE GUY CONTESTANT from this batch I do like Lee Dewyze and Andrew Garcia Girl faves could be Siobhan and Katie but I still have to decide tomorrow at their show!) bringing in talents like Melinda Doolittle (possible the BEST vocalist EVER on the show. EVER. And then America had to boot her out, WHYY!!! I keep rewatching her audition whenever I feel like I’m losing hope in American Idol (like last week) and hope that someone would SHINE like her. Carrie Underwood is still my top IDOL but Kelly Clarkson + David Cook + Kris Allen come close!

When finally the Philippines caught on and has decided to put up a talent show “Pilipinas Got Talent”, I was really hesitant because… I did not watch our local shows. I wasn’t really brought up on them because I was fed with the news, National Geographic and HBO and of course Cartoon Network as a kid so… there. I didn’t grow old with our local shows. But mum liked to watch them though so when one day, she was tuning in to Pilipinas Got Talent, I STOPPED walking and looked at the screen. Is this really what I’m seeing? A pianist with NO HANDS (incomplete arms guys, INCOMPLETE ARMS) and a girl who HAD A GUY’S VOICE? (okay so Nick Pitera can sing like a girl but I haven’t seen a girl singer who had a deep guy voice except maybe for Cher or Annie Lennox) I was really intrigued because they actually… SOUNDED GOOD!! Really!

You guys have to watch this. There’s English subtitles for all!

And then someone shared a link in my facebook, again about somebody in Pilipinas Got Talent. I was already in a hurry and just needed to check my email this morning but I said…what the heck, I’ll just play it. And then my ears heard such a wonderful golden voice of a young Filipino! He had such an amazing voice packed in a small frame! MY GOSH. YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS DUDE TOO! Dad says that he is waay better than the girl singer I shared above so pls, WATCH GUYS. My dad was left speechless and I was late for class this morning. It was that good so PLS WATCH. Also with subtitles

I teared up at the end too but not as much as Susan Boyle’s. This is why Talent shows are so… wonderful because you really DO NOT KNOW what gem you’ll discover underneath all this auditioning. Only a few will really stand out and when they do, you’ll find them in such UNLIKELY PLACES. These shows inspire other people and these shows are opportunities for such people. These shows make them BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES. You guys may have a different opinion but this is mine. Pls let me know what you think in the comments. I really do like to hear if you agree or disagree with me.

These videos are also special because… these people are more special because of what they have gone through. A lot of Filipinos like Jovit are impoverished and have so much little… and to be given such an opportunity as this and finding that HE has talent, is so inspiring. I hope to see more of him. Now it really makes me want to watch Pilipinas Got Talent

OH BEFORE I END HERE’S SOMETHING!!

I CAN’T WAIT TO WATCH ALICE IN WONDERLAND TOMORROW! I know that it has been running in our theatres for about 4 days already but I still have yet to watch it! I’m soo excited already and this will also be the last bonding session with my blockmate who will be going to Korea for 9 months on Tuesday I can’t wait to see this movie because my heart Johnny D is going to be there (despite him dressing up... like a clown XD) and it's Tim Burton's project! I'm kinda biased but am kinda frightened that this movie only got a 50+ rating at Rottentomatoes. Hope it's not that bad!

Here's the trailer

And here’s a contest for you guys to get a chance to win an ALICE IN WONDERLAND MERCHANDISE! Ends tonight dears!

And keeping a private journal is soo refreshing! After writing down 1000 words a day, it really makes you feel relaxed and everything. You are able to sort out your deepest thoughts and actually contemplate if you were right or wrong. And the topic for today is chivalry. Well not exactly that, it’s more on being selfless and being gentlemanly. Yes, this is directed to guys. Because of something that happened today… I have come to believe that gentlemen are becoming rarer and rare by the MINUTE. What they did was just OUTRAGEOUS. Simple OUTRAGEOUS! I want to whack them in the heads to force some sense into them. Really…

Do you guys know the song We Are The World? It was originally composed by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie and produced by Quincy Jones for the benefit of Africa last Februaru 28, 1985 (holy cow, 25 years ago?? Imagine that!). I super love love the original because it was sung with such emotion and I loved the story behind how about 40++ famous artists recorded this over in just one night! It’s simply inspiring and awe-striking. Plus Bruce Springsteen was there, Kenny Rogers, Cyndi Lauper, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Diana Ross and all these wonderful artists were there! And now because of what happened to Haiti (God Bless their souls… let’s help them recover friends!), a remake with Haiti-influenced vocals were added. It’s a really nice remake but still not as better as the original and you can view it here

But what is more extraordinary than that is this YOUTUBE version of We Are The World sung by 57 famous Youtube singers and artists (Nick Pitera is there! But no Sam Tsui?? Awww) and it sounds AS GOOD as the remake. I swear, and to think most of these people are not professional singers so they are even more inspiring! I would have wanted to contribute to something like this, oh if I only knew how to sing well! How about you guys, would you join in something like this? Some of the singers have GREAT VOCAL CHOPS. Swear, they could even battle with the current batch of American Idol singers (I really DON’T LIKE THE CURRENT BATCH. Gosh, HORRIBLE HORRIBLE first two nights. The girls outdid the guys in my opinion though but still.. I see some potential greats BUT THEY’RE NOT SHOWING it yet, some are too shy. I do like that they are pretty diverse, especially the girls, they have interesting tones and voices) and win American Idol. Lisa Lavie (the one who posted this video) sings EXTREMELY WELL. Oh I better stop gushing and just post the vid XD

Hope you guys could hear these 2 versions, if you’re not at home now, rush back to your home and put on earphones (or even not) and listen to it. It’s worth the wait guys

And now guys, I need some help on selecting the most bad-ass netbook (okay kidding, actually am really on a tight budget) because I’m thinking of buying one for my junior term abroad this coming September to December! I don’t want to lug my 15 inch laptop around plus I need to update it into a Linux software because we need that for coding and all wherever I’m going. So I need your opninion guys, a 10 inch screen would do, 250gb hardrive hopefully, 1gb ram and of course a webcam is needed. After a few deliberations with friends, I’ve canceled out HP (my friends say it’s breaks easily) and Acer (i’ve had bad experience with Acer too). My choices now would be Dell, ASUS, or Toshiba (but am hesitant with Toshiba because they say it’s heavy). Can you guys help me?

I really wanted this Disney ASUS laptop but… xD it’s only for kids and there aren’t even specs listed on the site! LOLZZ

Now I don’t really like politics but I acknowledge its importance because… hello, this determines the fate of one country and we must be responsible for selecting our leaders (seeing that we are a democratic country, well our history professor contests our meaning of “democracy” now) so I attended the presidential forum of presidentiable Dick Gordon and vp-candidate Bayani Fernando yesterday and gained a lot of insights. Dick Gordon in my opinion has a very strong presence and he can handle the job. And I got something from Bayani yesterday, he was right in saying that he has never seen a president who was in the workforce before (Bayani was an engineer you see) and I hope to see someone like that someday too.

Well if you are going to ask me who are my options for president, I’ll really have to say Teodoro or Gordon. I hope that you can respect my decision and I respect yours too. You may defend your answer though and I’ll be adding this in the questions later on I’m leaning towards Gibo though but I really hope that Ateneo indeed conducts more forums (even if they’re not a debate, but a debate would be better, a GOOD DEBATE WITH PANELISTS THAT IS) and invite the other presidential candidates to our school. THE YOUTH NEEDS INSIGHTS.

So I end this post on a light note

Are you up to a very crazy and ADDICTING GAME?? Well then why don’t you play ROBOT UNICORN ATTACK? Don’t forget to put it on full volume! XD haha You’d probably sing along to it too. Great game for those who are boredXD

OH!! Join me in Onioning?? It’s like Formspring but it’s better because you actually comment with your friends on some answers. It’s loads of fun! Go here if you’re ready to join me LOLZ

Questions
1. Which version of We Are The World did you like better?
2. Do you know any good netbooks? Do you own one?
3. Who are you going to vote for President & Vice President? Why? For my international friends, if you have already voted in the past, did you think you selected a capable president? If not, do you think being aware on who your leaders are important or not?
4. Did you play the Robot Unicorn Attack game? XD XD
