Funny thing happened today. We were walking to Gate 7 at dismissal and as we reached the Prep area, some random kid wearing the green Prep uniform and holding a stick of melting Twin Popsies tapped me on the back and said, "Ate! Parehas tayo ng bag!!!" :)) She looked so amazed, I couldn't help but laugh. So I said, "Patingin!" and she turn her back a little so I could see a slightly smaller version of my Tinkerbell backpack. Then I went ahead and gave her a high five.
I have a LOT of vivid Prep memories, one of which I could include among the funniest things that ever happened to me. When I was in Prep, I used to buy the 5-peso dirty ice cream from the manong near the Grade School canteen EVERY single day. So one day, after I've procured my favorite sweet fix, I started walking to Gate 7 to wait for my sundo (yeah, Gate 7 ako buong STC life ko :P). I was happily licking/biting/chewing the top scoop of my ice cream when it started to rain. In panic, I started running and to my dismay, all the scoops of ice cream had fallen and were gone by the time I reached the gate. It was then that my classmate saw me, holding what was left of it--the cone.
And then she went, "Uyy, Patricia, MAGKANO PAG APA LANG?" =))
Haaaay. Prep days. Back when things were a lot less complicated, back when all we had to worry about were such shallow things like unsharpened pencils, missing IDs, uneven pigtails, etc. Now there's the ACET, the ACET, the ACET, and uhhhhh... let's see, the ACET.
Sooohooo yeah. Mag-aral na tayo, game!
K. Bye :))

Nakokonsensya ko :| Nasungitan ko si Papa kanina kasi bad mood ako dahil sobrang traffic at sobrang late na kami nasundo ni Mang Nory. As in, kaming dalawa nalang ni Alyssa yung naiiwan sa Gate 7. Tapos pagkauwi, nung nagkiss ako kay Pa, ayun. BAM! Stupid temper. Oh well, I got it from him anyway :)) But still, I'm A VERY VERY CONSCIENCED!!! Kasi birthday niya na bukas. Tapos hindi niya ko pinapansin. Huhuhu :(( Sorry Papi. ILY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY OLD MAN! May gift ako sayo. Yiheeeee, bati na tayo! ;)

Lately I've been feeling so.. unlike ME. I've been finding myself staring blankly in space, or losing the will to do any of the stuff I have to do (not that there'd been lots to do recently, but still. it's so not me to ignore school stuff). From the time I wake up to the time I sleep, I've been feeling exhausted. Like I've been going to the gym everyday or something. Which is weird, because I do not have any other physical activity besides walking from the car to Gate 1 in the morning, and walking to the car to Gate 7 in the afternoon. And lately also, my appetite's grown twice its normal, err.. size. These past few days, I've been eating almost for two people my size! I mean, I've always had a healthy appetite but eating this much isn't normal for me. PMS? I really think so :))
Can I just say that I'm really really excited that the making of the magazine's in its last leg now? Super kinikilig ako sa hanep na teamwork nina Joy at Ikay. Natutuwa din ako ng sobra sa lovely Art Heads dahil feel na feel kong nahihirapan kayo, and yet ang galing galing parin ng nagagawa niyo. I LOVE YOU, GIRLS! =)) You are the bomb. You make it easier when life gets hard :P I know this should be really difficult, tiring work, but with editors like you, I don't even feel like it's work at all :)
Anyway, I'm unusually happy today. I've been in a good mood since morning but the NoliFili play at PETA this afternoon really did it for me. Amazing show, I didn't get bored one bit. Well maybe it's because of Basilio's friggin cool biceps but.. HAHAHAHA. No seriously though, it was a good show. "General" Salvi was ahmaaaaziiiiing. It was funny when he started to semi-laugh while delivering one of his lines. Di na rin niya napigilan e :)) People's reactions after the play were priceless. Teenage hormones at worst? I think so =)) =)) =)) But it's okay. We only get to be this.. giddy and kilig without being judged once in our lives :P
P.S. You should totally see the everyone's YM stat right now :))
IBARRA! BASILIO! =))

My blog turned a year old yesterday :) And I.. well, I turned a year older too.I was having mixed emotions the whole day. There were moments when I felt so happy and special but there were also times during the day that I felt so.. blah. In general, though, it was a grrreat birthday :) Here are the highlights:-Family's yearly tradition of gift-giving. Two of the gifts they got me were books about Greece, the country I've been dying to visit since ever. And they also got me a stress ball :))-Kuya Dax made a banner that said "Happy birthday trixie!!! We soooooo freakin' love you!" It also had five random pictures of me, all edited by him since he's currently going through his Photoshop craze phase. Hahaha.-Ms. Gino and I were greeted and sang to by IV-1 :)-Aira gave me a pack of my favorite flavor of Nova plus a dog cellphone keychain. Seriously, I'm a sucker for small but sweet acts of thoughtfulness. Haha.-Metch and Kim gave me a happy birthday note with a huge drawing of me.-Ate Yen made a very, very, very cute birthday banner.-Cake from Banapple :)And here are the two BEST things that happened to me yesterday.
-------
I was getting a bit irked at the fact that some of my CLOSEST friends didn't even bother to try to see me the whole day. I mean, it was Palihan and all, and the whole batch was divided into different communities for most part of the day. But it was my birthday, and I was expecting my barkada to greet me when we all went back to school. But they didn't. So dismissal came and I still haven't seen most of them. I grabbed my things and started to get ready for the Mag's layout seminar which was held right after school. When I went inside the venue, 16 random batchmates/friends came to me and started giving me a flower each. I looked at Mels, Joy, Tin, Fe, Chex and Nicole and I understood. I swear, tears started welling up in my eyes :)) Attached on the flower stems were pieces of paper that had pictures of all my celebrity boyfriends (plus one non-celebrity :)) :)) :)) clap clap clap, good one :P)--Jason Mraz, Adam Sevani, Penn Badgley, Heath Ledger, you name it!--plus love quotes on the side of each photo =)) My heart was honestly swelling with happiness. HAHAHA :))
After the seminar, Mels and I went to Gate 7 and I apologized profusely to my sister, Alyssa, for being terribly late. When we got to the car, she asked me what the flowers were for and I told her all about my friends' supersweet idea of a gift. Then she asked how many flowers were there, and I said sixteen, supposedly. We counted them and figured there were only 15, and I said they must've made a mistake or something. Then Alyssa whips out a flower from her backpack and says, "Here's the 16th." :O
The note attached to the last flower said, "We love you till the flowers die... Happy birthday!"
And the best part of it?
The sixteen flowers were made of plastic :)
And I realized after a while that the happiness I felt when I received the flowers from fifteen of "my boyfriends" was no match to what I felt when I got that last flower from seven of my best-est friends.
-------
When my family and I got home from Banapple at around 9:00, I was too sleepy to notice that the house was unusually dark. I just heard Papa bickering and asking the ate's why they turned all the lights out. So I went in and started heading for the stairs, when the lights were turned on and I found myself being sprinkled with colorful foil confetti. Screaming and smiling at me were four of my closest cousins.
Can I say sweet or what? :)

Happy birthday to my cousin Tippy who turns 14 today! :)

You know the kind of feeling that's not over-the-top happy/ecstatic/elated but not sulky/emo/gloomy at all? I can't find the right words to describe it. Just that feeling of, you know, being happy in a quiet kind of way. Like there's this warm, calm, peaceful aura inside you. Like everything's fine. Everything's okay. Like you're content. And to tell you the truth, I'd rather have this kind of happiness for a long time than that fleeting hyper-happy kind.
This is what I call feeling blessed. Thanks to my cousins and my big old barangay of a family from both sides. They're the bomb. I'm so lucky to have such an awesome family :)

Sabi nga ng kaibigan ko sa open letter niya kay God, "MISS KO NA PO MAGING NORMAL NA TAO."
Ako, sa totoo lang, miss ko lang ang pagiging tao. At SA WAKAS, I feel na malapit na kong magtransform ulit. Goodbye eyebags, hello matinong tulog!
I mean, hindi pa tapos yung mga dapat gawin and everything. I still won't have a lot of free time on my hands. Pero may konti na. May mga araw na hindi na TOTOONG BUSY with the super galit busy sign ang stat ko sa YM :)) Di ka ba naeexcite?? Tapos na exams, UPCAT, blah blah. Practical tests nalang. At ACET. Pero matagal pa yun, di pa kailangan magpanic. May Mag pa. Pero kaya na!!! Oh yeah. Ang saya talaga :))
Malapit na. Super lapit na. Sa four days of freedom after ng birthday ko, magiging tao na ulit ako. YAY :))
P.S. Excited na ko magbirthday dahil dun palang ibibigay sakin yung Breaking Dawn ko. Tsk. Mali talaga e, dapat hindi ko sinabing birthday gift yun. Sana ngayon meron na ko. Pero oh well. At least naeexcite ako magbirthday :)) Pero YUCK. Sixteen na ko. HUHUHU :((
