Mag-iisang linggo na ata magmula nang umuwi kami galing Vigan. Pagkauwi ko, tuwang tuwa ako kasi naisip ko, gagawa ako ng entry na puro pictures lang from our trip. Mangiyak-ngiyak ako nung naalala kong NAWAWALA nga pala yung chord na pang-connect ng camera to the computer. At lalo pa kong nainis nung paulit ulit akong naghanap at WALA PARIN. Pero, naisip ko, pwede naman ako mag-grab ng pics from my cousins na, can I just say, ay napaka-PROMPT magpost ng Vigan pictures sa mga Multiply nila. Mukhang nag-enjoy sila dahil usually, pag may ordinaryong lakad kaming magpipinsan, it would take them about 2 weeks bago magpost ng pictures. Alam mo yun, yung magppost nalang pag punong puno na yung camera dahil naipon na yung shots from different occasions. Ayos na sana diba? Save nalang sa computer, tapos post ko na. Eh kaso. SIRA NGA PALA YUNG RIGHT CLICK NG MOUSE. As in, literal na kailangan mong hampas-hampasin yung right button ng mga sampung beses bago siya magclick.
Soooooooooo, because of my frustration and, well, laziness na rin, I put off blogging about Holy Week, Chex's surprise party, and all the other stuff that came after. Eto short kwento nalang. It took us 12 whole hours to get to Vigan. We left at 4am, and we arrived at 4pm. Blame our loooong stopovers (which could be about 3 hours, in total) and Papa's grandma driving for the extremely long ride. I swear, Papa drives so sloooooow. Anyway, some of my cousins were already there when we arrived. Pero super konti palang kami, so we got really really bored. And I was thinking, shucks naman. Super di worth it yung 12 hours na yun ah. Mas masaya talaga sa Zambales. $@#$#$%! Bakit kasi di nakapag-pareserve?! Gusto kong mag-Putipot island. At mag-Pangasinan tapos mag hundred islands. Deeeeeeeeyyym! So ayun, wala kaming ginawa. Dinner lang (hindi ako kumain ng longganisa for reasons I'd rather not disclose) blah blah blah. The next day, my other cousins came and we decided to go sight-seeing. Old houses. Spanish-decorated establishments on cobblestoned streets. Kalesas going about. Huge Churches. Even McDonald's had that old-Spanish-y feel (I'd love to post a picture, but I cant). Masaya rin naman pala. Lalong sumaya when we got back to the resort. Swimmiiiiing! Super clear yung water, tapos yung waves--howmaaaygaad! Sobrang lakas. Di ka makakalampas sa tubig near the shore kung wala kang "strategy." At sobrang mawawala talaga yung poise mo pag sumulong ka. Lalo na kapag naka-two piece at hindi "safe" ang bathing suit mo. One time, we were all in the part where the waves crash, and this HUGE, HUGE wave came. Pag-angat namin, lahat kami nag-aayos ng top. It was so strong such that it was physically tiring to tampisaw :)) But in conclusion, I had tons of fun in Vigan. The 12-hour drive turned out to be so worth it :)
Okay, last kwento. Yesterday, my cousins and I bonded and guess what? I was allowed to commute to Gateway! Wahoo. It was superfun. Nag-LRT kami, then FX pauwi. Sa LRT, nakakatawa kasi I didn't know what to do with the card thing, so I asked my cousin to go ahead of me para titignan ko nalang kung ano gagawin niya tapos susunod ako (para hindi obvious na hindi ako marunong diba!). E nahalata niya ata na hindi ko nga alam gagawin, tapos in a loud voice, he said, "Ganito oh! Lagay mo lang.. paganyan!" Parang ako, "Ano ba, wag obvious!" Haha. It wasn't my first time to ride the lrt though. But it's been a long time, so I needed a.. refresher. Haha. Anyway we got to Gateway and walked around and stuff. Then we rode an FX on the way home.
So far, I'm liking this summer. Nothing extraordinary has happened yet, but you know, it's too early to tell whether this vacation's gonna rock or not. Update you soon. PBB na eh. Haha :)

Alam niyo bang tuwang tuwa ako tuwing binibisita ko ang aking blog at nakikitang ang daming bagong tag?! I feel.. really special. Hahaha.
The truth is, I have a LOT of stories to tell but since Tin Barreiro has NOT YET posted our pictures from March 14, I decided to postpone blogging about what happened during the last week of school. Anyway, can I just say that I don't (feel any pressure right nooow. HAHAHA joke) feel the summer vibe yet? I don't know, parang isang mahabang weekend lang, probably because I haven't been stuck at home for more than 12 hours (excluding sleep time) nor have I been bored to tears YET. I've been totally busy last Palm Sunday, what with the Esq. family lunch (while watching Pacman's match), our "meeting" for Ate JB's debut, the surprise graduation dinner for Kuya Toy (yes, my cousin's name really is laruan in tagalog), and the impromptu Eastwood/BigR escapade with my cousins and our Marikina friends. Then yesterday, my cousins and I went swimsuit-hunting in Greenhills and SM Mega. It was so much fuuuuuuuuuuuuun. As in. After that, we went to Riverbanks (cause we were craving for Zagu) and picked Yennie up from St. Scho. Then we went to the bank to do some... errands? Haha. Then we went home and watched Step Up 2 on DVD (pirated, malamang). It was so funny, cause after watching, we all got so hyper and started dancing around. We tried copying the butt-shake thing that Andie was doing :)) Pano ba yan, may crew na kami? =)) Today Papa decided to skip work and stay at home to prepare for our trip tomorrow. We went to the mall to buy groceries and to buy pads for my swimsuit. Yeah, my DAD accompanied me for THAT. Haha. But it's cool, cause he's like, a gay dad anyway. JUST KIDDING :)) He's filling in for my mom who, unlike him, doesn't have the luxury of skipping work whenever.
Speaking of gay, there's this song I learned from my cousin and when I first heard it, I automatically thought of Joy, my gayest (happiest, that is :P) friend of all. It goes like this:
If you were gay, that'd be okay
I mean cause hey, I 'd like you anyway
If you were queer, I'd still be here
Year after year, because you're dear to me
If you were gay, I'd shout HOORAY!
And here I'd stay, but I wouldn't get in your way
You can count on me
To always be
Beside you everday
To tell you it's okay
You were just born that way
It's in your DNA, you're gay!
It's by Avenue Q, and it's a really funny and catchy song. LSS ko siya ngayon, actually. Hahaha. Anyway, I better go now. Just finished packing, but I still have to wake up at 4am tomorrow. Guess where we're going. Guess. Guess!!!
We're going to VIGAAAAAN! =)) Hahahahaha. Only iii1 would know why that's funny :)) (iii1, wag kayong mag-tag about that ha! hahahaha) So. See you all next week :)

Kamusta naman at naa-addict akong mag-ayos ng blog? Seriously, I'm so dorky. This is my third update for today. THIRD! Halata bang bored ako? Harhar. Tss :)) I just visited Joy's blog, and eets soooo kewwwwl. Check out my friend SmellyMelly's blog too. Haha, okay super plug. TheWho, do you want me to plug you too? Cause I would totally help in your blog's publicity even if it means having to make it my YM status or Friendster shout out. Haha! And I'll link you. Just tell meeeeeeeee. I can't wait for Tin to post the pictures of our funfunfun... er, thing, yesterday. Haha. I so wanna gloat about how much FUN I've had so I could give you the impression that I'm not a total loser and that I do have friends to socialize with, and that I don't always spend precious summer days fighting with my Papi (oo na, gay na). Hehehe. JUST KIDDING. Nako kasi, Tin. Bagal-ness!
Is it obvious that I'm so not myself right now? Haha. I'm so isleefy. See you'morrow, blog :)

I just realized that this time last year, I was in a plane, anticipating the highlight of summer '07. Today I'm stuck at home. With the kind of cramps that starts with an M and rhymes with oval (haha corny). The only good thing is that I'm starting to accomplish my summer to-do list by reading (FINALLY! I have time!!!) a good book. I'll tell you about it when I'm done.
I just wanted to post this. In memory of an "endless" summer,
and in the hope of having a brighter one ahead :)
See that little person leaning on the ledge, facing the camera? Well, that's me. Now look at the left part, and you'd see a man leaning on the ledge, facing the other side (his head isn't visible, probably cause he was bowing it down or something). He's wearing a grey hoodie and loose pants. This is funny, but I've got this fantasy that that guy's kinda like Ryan Atwood on the OC. Hahaha :)) Just sharing :))

So howdya like my new layout? ;) Does it scream me or whaaaaaaaaaat? Haha. This wasn't the skin I was talking about before though, cause it's impossible to fix that one. Anyway, after about 15 minutes of scanning through blogskins and an hour of fixing the codes (which was hard, fyi, since I've no idea about html whatnot), tadaaaaaaaaa! So what do you think? Tag me ;) Oh and if anyone you know is already using this skin, tell me cause I'd take it down even if I love it so much. Hahaha :D
I'll tell you about my Friday date as soon as Tin posts the pictures. Gusto ko kasi may picture yung entry na yun eh. Hehe :))

Ito na ata ang pinaka masayang last day sa buhay ko.
NOT.
My eyes are aching terribly, especially when I force them shut. Have you ever cried so hard, you could swear your eyes would pop out in a teardrop? I can't believe what Nicole and I were joking about a while ago came true. We were kinda teasing Chex (cause she told me Tita Jazz didn't allow her to go on our last day date at the last freaking minute), and telling her I'd cry as soon as I got home on account of the fact that I have no last-day gimmick/celebration/party. I didn't expect it would actually happen. Yeah, cause I had a fight with Pa. Again. I really can't tell if we're the worst enemies or the best of friends. Seriously. Sometimes I love him to bits, but a while ago I wanted to march up to him and punch him in the stomach. Or get a razor and shave off all his hair. That way he'd never ask me again if I think he's getting bald or whatever. I'm half-kidding. Ugh. I hate how every time we fight, I end up crying. I was practically bawling 3 hours ago. Demmet, I've got to toughen up.
Anyway, I am glad the year's over. Sure, I'm gonna miss a lot of people, including teachers (yeah yeah. yadda yadda yadda. it's true though) and iii1 of course. But this has been such a crazy year, and I'm just so tired. I'm sure next year's gonna be a lot more tiring for me, but I'm ready to cope. Even if it means having to rant in here every single day. Besides, Senior year has to rock. I mean, if you need, like, an extra chair in the cafeteria, you could just grab one from people and not worry about whether or not they're a batch lower than you. Ooh, and you can get toyo for siomai from anyone. Wala nang paa-paalam. You've got the seniority benefits ;) Hehe kidding.
So sorry this isn't the best entry I could come up with to compensate for, what, the 12 days I've skipped blogging. Anyway. I'll give you a cheerful one next time. You know, when I start feeling that it's actually summer.
Don't know when that's gonna be.
