Fine, I'm coming clean. The skeletons inside my closet are out, the cat's out of the bag.
I'll admit it, okay?
There is someone special.
Everyone, meet Alex Greenwald. My latest katipan. And no, I'm not "cheating" on Patrick Stump. It's totally fine with him ;)
Yes, I love you too! :D
Can't resist, I just had to.
Alex Greenwald: Phantom Planet vocalist
Don't you think he kind of looks like Ashton? Except he's thinner and hotter and has a grreat voice? Hot hot.

It's raining, it's pouring. Title courtesy of Joy's promdi-ness. Kala niya kasi tears outside my window yung lyrics nung kanta e. HAHA. ef-ey-kyu!! :)) Okaaaay, cue in on the inside joke :p So I just got home from the skills training for the Mag. Bonding with Joy and Ikay. Plus, Felichie, Paula, Thea and Czare. And the editors. Kinda fun, actually. We went to the publishing house to see the whole process of printing it, and I got a glimpse of the first issue!!!! BUT it wasn't stapled yet, and some weren't even cut so I haven't really seen the real thing yet. I'm so exciteeeeeeeeeed. It's official, the Mag's coming out on Monday and you guys better sit back and read the whole thing, cover to cover okay? But I probably don't even have to tell you that cause the moment you see the cover page, I'm sure that's exactly what you'll do. THE COVER IS SOOOO GOOD. My gosh, I wanna marry the freaking cover! Kidding, kidding. Exag lang, para masaya. But seriously, the cover's grrrrrreat! And so is the mag, so please don't trash the thing we've worked so hard on :)
I shall be leaving the house again to go to the derma. Meeehn I'm sleepy. I still have to do loads of homework, plus a documentation of what transpired today.
Dakilang utusan signing off--for now.

As soon as I plopped down the computer chair, I checked the clock and made a mental note to shut this thing off when it strikes 5:00. Guess what? It's 5:22. The thing is, I've got this looooooooooooong Religion homework to do. And I've got this long test in Pinoy tomorrow. I really don't have the luxury of time nor do I have anything important to say that requires me to blog about it ASAP. But can you blame me for being laaazy? I don't want to face the school work yet. Ugh. Isn't there anything else I can do online? I'm running out of things to do. Guess it's time to go. SNIFF SNIFF.
Hahaha. How gay.
Oooh by the way, the Mag may be distributed this Friday. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I want to see the outcome baaaaadly.

Still hung over from all the happiness.
I don't care whether or not I'm making sense.
If I were Pete Wentz, I'd go:
"I'm so f****** happy!"
Cause the F word is apparently his favorite word.
But I'm not Pete.
So I'm just saying: I'M SO HAPPY!!!
I love Patrick.
Cause he's "the only place that feels like home" :D
"Where is your boy tonight?"
You should've seen him last night :)
"I found a cure to growing older."--It's the music.
It makes me feel so free.
Danced like nobody's watching.
Didn't care. Let all hell break loose.
Loved the chaos, the heat, the liberation.
May the spirit of music be with you.
May the spirit of rock and roll be with us all.
But may the spirit of Fall Out Boy be with me forever :)

Hello, Philippines and hello, world! 1 night to go. And it's FOB time! Weeee. I've been waiting for so long. The excitement's killing me. But before I rejoice, I just want to say that this has got to be the most exhausting day. My brain was seriously not functioning during the second period of Chem. Sobrang brain drain to the highest level! After lunch, I felt really woozy and my head was just so full. It's called thinking, yeah yeah, I know. Grey's Anatomy. Pero kakaibang FULL na talaga e. Kanina ko lang nalaman yung totoong meaning ng information overload. Ugh. Then my legs started to ache, feeling ko matutumba ko habang nagbabasa ng gospel during Sir DM's period. Grabe talaga. TIRING! So when I got home, I tried to sleep, but then I received a text from Ate Therese. Maglista raw ng suggestions for the next issue para mabilis flow ng meeting bukas. Syempre hindi na ko nakatulog nun kasi isip na ko ng isip diba. And can I just say that I'm probably the least prolific (joy, there goes that word again) ed in the entire universe? I swear, I can't come up with new ideas for the mag! Sobrang wala talaga. I'm not creative at all. Kinakabahan tuloy ako for next year. Anong mangyayari sa mag sa mga kamay ko? Baka ipambalot na talaga ng tinapa pag ako na. WALA KASI AKONG KWENTA. Okay, drama much? Enough. I'll survive! I always do. Kaya 'to.
Anyway, I wasn't able to sleep so I decided to have a snack. I spotted a pack of Ridges (yung green)--my favorite. Guiltily, I opened the foil wrapper and I got a whiff of its onion and garlic-y goodness. I had one chip in hand, when I realized I hadn't checked the nutrition facts. Uh oh. This is against my healthy-eating plan. 160 calories per serving. And the bag had TWO servings. Do the Math. I've sickeningly been dealing with numbers all day (Geom, Algeb, Chem!!!). Okay, it contained 320 calories. I was halfway through it, reasoning in my head that I had such a rough day and 160+++ calories of junk food wouldn't be really unhealthy as long as I don't do it often. But I gave in to this little voice inside my head, telling me that I could eat 160+++ calories of healthy food during dinner (including our new fiber-rice! it's packed with, duh, fiber so that should compensate for the lack of veggies in my daily diet). Okay, drop the junk and step away from the devious bag of unhealthy goodness.
Now I have to write my TGR which is to be submitted tomorrow. My God help me.
I can't wait for dinner.

I have never been the type who'd be excessively concerned with her grades. Okay, so I do care about my grades a lot but I'm not the type who'd mind getting 87s in Algebra while most of the outstanding students get 92s or 93s. I mean, seriously, it's totally okay. But the last time I got a grade worse than this was way back in Grade 3, Computer Class. Mama talked to my teacher then, and guess what? My grade skyrocketed 7 points the next trimester. I think it was a mindless mistake on the part of my teacher. But this is totally different. This is, by far, the lowest grade I've gotten since I step foot in high school. And it would've been totally fine with me if it was PE because I've long accepted the fact that I have not been the least bit blessed with athletic abilities. BUT HELLO. Honestly speaking, I am deeply irritated and disappointed. But I shall not name names, nor shall I curse, because that would simply be going against my principles, especially in blogging. However, when I say that this is completely unjust, I am not only speaking for myself but for the rest of the the people in my batch who are probably going as ballistic as I am right now.
I am definitely thinking about law school now more than ever. Justice seriously needs to be served.

It's friday. Friday night. I feel like such a loser, sitting here in front of the computer instead of, I don't know, going out somewhere. Cause that's what regular teenagers do, right? Try so hard to look grown up, act grown up. Cause it's cool. Hahaha, I don't make sense at all. But the thing is, I'm not regular. I'm PATETIK. I wanna go out badly. I wanna go out, be free, roam wild. LABO. MAJOR. Oo na. Haha! Pero okay lang, kasi wala pa namang may alam ng blog na 'to. It hasn't been advertised on ym or friendster or multiply. Sooo, I can write what I want. No editing here baybeh. Speaking of editing, I can't wait till the mag comes out! As in. Sa 5 years na pagiging part ng Theresian Mag, ngayon lang ako sobrang naeexcite na makita yung product of our labor! Kasi mahirap talaga siya gawin.Lalo na ngayon for the lay-out artists. Tsk.
ANYWAY. Gusto kong mag-168. Sobrang gusto ko. As in, gustong gustong gusto kong makakita ng tiangge at haplus-haplusin ang kanilang mga malalambot at samut saring tela na tinitinda. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaad. I'm bored out of my skull. Oooh by the way, have I mentioned anything about my lifestyle-make over? Wala lang, kasi I figured that although I'm not overweight or anything... I mean, although my weight seems pretty healthy, I'M NOT. I just realized we should seriously be watchful of the things we eat. I hadn't thought about how much junk food I eat, how many glasses of soda I mindlessly drink. And it's wrong!!! I learned that a person should only take in 2,000 calories a day to maintain his weight. You know how much calories there are in a single cup of rice? 300! A can of Coke? 280 (according to Mama)!! Grabe talaga. And I don't think I even burn more than a hundred calories on a regular day. This is so wrong. This is why many people die early! They don't eat right, they end up obese, and die cause of heart attacks (which could be caused by a blocked vein that couldn't pump blood into the heart. reason? OIL, demmet.) or diabetes. And this is why I'm making a conscious effort to revamp my lifestyle and eat properly. This is no diet. This is not me trying to get thin. This is most definitely not anorexia. I want to be healthy! Because of that, I'm also trying to develop this new habit of drinking MILK TEA every night. I got the idea from Azta Urban Salon (haha. shameless plugging first. visit the salon! they have four branches now: Metrowalk, katipunan, eastwood--just right above starbucks, and robinsons metroeast. besides the great service they also give out free drinks! and that is where the milk tea comes in). If you want to try it, this is what I do:
-buy Lipton Yellow Label tea
-boil a cup of milk (if you want the drink hot. if not, don't boil. add ice instead. duh. haha)
-dip one packet of tea into the cup of milk
-wait 2 minutes
-add a teaspoon of sugar (i find the tea too bitter, so i do this)
-mix the whole thing and drink up
So there you go. If you want to know more about what I'm talking about, or if you're wondering how much calories you can consume considering your height and weight, go to this website: http://www.inch-aweigh.com/dcn.php
It also has this list of foods and how much calories they're equivalent to. But remember that what matters even more is not how much calories you take in, but the kind of food you eat. Try to substitute your usual snacks with things that are a bit more nutritional. Like instead of eating a pack of Sumo (140 calories, and it doesn't even satisfy hunger!), try a banana instead. Haha! (That was for you, nicole torres) I'm trying to eat more fruits and fish and veggies.. okay, not vegetables. But I do eat a lot of fruits!
Game! Let's all be healthy :)
