Que Tonto!

I cannot believe how some people can be so stupid. I am irritated as hell because instead of just being stressed out with work, wedding plans, cooking, having to do the laundry, cleaning-- i still have to face people who do not use their brains. People often tell me that life here in the Philippines is supposed to be easier with all the "help". But if these people these people just give you a freaking hard time, wouldn't life would completely be easier without them? F****** tonto.


*today i am thankful that i am not a crazy money hungry *ss. I am thankful that i am not stupid enough to be blinded by it. To the people who are...may that stupidity haunt you for the rest of your lives.

Ayayay...

It's bizarre how life flashes before your eyes and how it can get or seem so hectic that you end up feeling like a zombie. The past few days i swear i felt the years pass by. I felt like life was sucked out of me. And it's not a good feeling. These are the times when i cannot help but miss watching basketball. It may sound silly but my obsession over the games kept me sane. It's sad but true. I need to be jolted out of this trance-like-life ( _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ save me pls :P).

Can You Say HOT?!

Simple things make me happy. Chocolates. Chocolate chip cookies. Pillows. Roses. Photography. Tv shows. The smell of new books. Salmon with cream cheese sashimi. Italian food. Singing. Dancing. Travelling. Basketball games. Friends. My hot crush :D. My hot crush and his "spiky" hair. My hot crush and his "chinky" eyes. My hot crush and his broad shoulders. My hot hot crush in his white button down shirt and faded jeans. My hot hot crush and his oh-so-hot smile. My hot hot crush and his heart-stopping-i-can-make-your-knees-weak stare.

He made my night ;) I still cannot believe that i saw him...

But i know there is no chance of me bumping into him again. So i can honestly say that all this gushing and insanity is acceptable. In another time, in another place; if i were 3 years younger i would've gotten to know him. HAHAHA :)

Hay naku. Me and my obsession with _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _. :)


*today i am thankful for my loving lhb who understands that i will never get over my hot hot crush :P

A Happy Thought...

All-Star Games!

Last saturday we attended the "Bantay Bata 163 UAAP/NCAA All-Star Games". I have never been to the all-star game and it was surreal. People of all ages and classes flocked to the stadium to see their favorite basketball players. They had their pens and camera phones ready. Most were prepared to pounce on their idols just to have their pictures taken and to ask for autographs. Being a basketball aficionado, i realized that our all-star games aren't just about the basketball aspect per se. It's literally an afternoon when supporters can go crazy over their own personal superstars. Naturally, all my love and support go the Ateneo Blue Eagles but because i am an Atenean i am used to seeing these players. My jaw dropped when i saw countless of girls trying to get JC, Macky, Doug, Jai and Chris's attention (the description that comes to mind -- a fan club pandemonium). Pictures were taken from every angle. I saw one girl have her picture taken with Jai at least 3 times. The ladies a few rows from me made JC sit in between them just to have their picture taken with him. The girls behind me gushed with envy as their friends told them how they got pictures with Chris. The people sitting at the section to my right excitedly whispered to each other how they saw JC arrive and go straight to the dugout (and they were more than 15 feet away!). I noticed that one girl almost had hearts coming out of her head as she hurriedly told her friends how Macky remembered her (having previously met him i assume) and how he gave her a high-five. I tried to listen to the conversations people had around me and i just couldn't help but laugh out loud. Autographs were signed left and right -- on papers, tickets, jerseys and even on the t-shirts that these girls had on. Even the guys were going ballistic. It was insane. But amidst the chaos was a calming relief of sportsmanship and clean, good fun! Great job guys! And Mr.Sam Ekwe--You are one scary man! :D 'Till next year's games!

*today i am thankful for message archives and eavesdropping powers :)

Moving On...

From 7th Heaven:


Lucy : "I thought i was ok but i cant seem..."

Rev. Camden: "To get over it? Well don't expect that. Don't expect to get over it. There is really no getting over a loss like that. There's just getting through it and moving on. And in time having it take its place in the story of your life. And that may take a lifetime. But that's ok. As long as you keep moving on... it's ok."


*today i am thankful for pictures and ... :D

Go ATENEO!

Last night's game served as the final game for Season 69 of the UAAP. Our loss to UST was heartbreaking, disappointing and painful. There were a lot of tears and i do not think words were enough to describe the emotions that went through the mind and heart of each player, coach and supporter. It was a loss that no one from our side wanted. And it was a loss that won't be soon forgotten. But personally it was more painful because 3 of our best eagles had played their last game. These 3 became leaders when they needed to be. They worked hard and showed the whole of the Ateneo that they were the leaders for a reason. Despite the criticisms, they strived to be better and we were never let down. They were rookies when we won in 2002 and it's understandable that i was hoping that they would bring the title back. I am sure a lot of supporters felt the same way. But i am not in the slightest bit disappointed in the players/coaching staff because they gave us a wonderful season. We saw how the Eagles transformed into a more solid, mature and focused team. The Ateneo couldn't have asked for anything more. But on the other hand, UST also stepped up their game. They were wonderful competitors and they gave us games that will be always be remembered. It was a great fight till the very end. Congratulations UST for a job well done!! To the Ateneo Blue Eaglets, congratulations for winning in the Juniors Division. To the Ateneo Blue Eagles, we are all proud of you!!! We will always be behind you; cheering you on whether in victory or defeat. Coach Norman, thank you for guiding our Eagles... JC, Macky and Doug, the Ateneo community will truly miss you... Thank you for a great and exciting season. You are our champions!

WIN OR LOSE...

IT'S THE SCHOOL WE CHOOSE...

THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE WE BELONG.

GO A T E N E O !

*today i am thankful for The Ateneo, The Blue Eagles and The UAAP.
