SHAMELESS PLUG.
THE THERESIAN MAGAZINE: OUT TODAY!
The release was delayed a few weeks, cause there was a problem with the printing Press, but it's out now! So common. Get off your butt and open that backpack. Take it out. Flip it open. Devour every page. You know you want to!
The new section of the Mag will be discussed/advertised in detail sometime this week (or next week) via the Campus Radio. Stay tuned. I'm hoping we could push through with it (the new section) because it'd be really cool to have a reader-writer interactive section in the magazine. And I'm positive we will be able to push through with it with your participation. So please do!
Lastly, thanks to everyone who didn't throw their Mags in the Garbology boxes :P Oh and can I just say that I had a totally proud momma moment in class a while ago, during Religion period, cause when I glanced at the back (I'm seated in the front row), I saw a lot of people reading the mag behind the chairs of the people in front of them :)) Nakakatawa/tuwa. I love you IV-1 :P And you, editors and staff and Mrs O. You guys are the bomb, seriously!

I miss her.
I miss them.
And I miss them. More than they could imagine.
Lastly, I miss her. Because somehow she got lost, and she'd become this distant thing of the past--like a person gone whose only remnant left is that of a fading photograph.
I think we've got a lot of catching up to do. What do you think?

Because it's Computer Class and everyone's updating their blogs, I'll update too. Haha.
K, walang masabi. Just dropping by to say HA, I CAN BREAK THE RULES TOO! :>
Okay, not actually true since Sir kinda made it a free period. Oh well :))
Hi, IV-1 :P

Me: I am sooo frickin tired of doing every frickin school work on every fricking weekend!!!
A: How many times did you say "frickin"?
Me: I DON'T FRIKCIN KNOW!!!!!!!!!
Nakakatawa, parang bugbog na bugbog na utak ko. At nakakatawa, lahat ng tao ganun din na-ffeel. Nakakatawang tignan ang stat ng mga tao sa YM.
Ay joke. Di pala nakakatawa ang mga nangyayari samin.
Hay. Pag Theresian nga naman.
P.S. Tatlong linggo ko nang hindi nakikita mga pinsan ko. At sa iisang subdivision lang kami nakatira. Daym. Loser much!

You know school has turned you into a complete zombie when not even shopping excites you anymore.
Seriously.
Papa and I just got home from the new SM Marikina, and while we were there, he kept asking if I wanted anything. And I was like, "Nah, I got my rain boots already. Let's just go home."
!!!!!!!!!!!
And get this, I haven't even stepped into a mall in 3 weeks (save that time after the ACET, when we stopped by Robinson's to eat lunch. but that doesn't count as malling).
Under ordinary circumstances, I would've hopped jumped on the opportunity to.. you know, spend his money on whatever. But noooooo. What did I do? I declined! There is something wrong with that. Even my dad noticed it. He was like, "Are you sure?? What happened to you? Are you sick?"
So to appease both our bewildered selves due to such a shocking phenomena that is my refusal to shop, I told him we could stop by Bayo and look around. I saw two things I liked, but they didn't have either in my size, so I told Pa we should just go. And he was saying, "Hay. This isn't your lucky day." And I was all, "Yeah, and I don't even have the spirit to fight the bad luck anymore."
Goodness. I think I'm losing myself. I'm changing into a different person. Yeah, I know it's completely shallow. Shopping may be perceived as the favorite hobby of the materialistic and the superficial. But I used to love it so much. And now I couldn't care less, I think I could even last a whole year without ANY new clothes. Or live under a rock and wear a potato sack. Whatever.
Oh gosh, I think I really am a zombie now.

I'm so glad it's over.
Whether or not I'd pass it remains a huge question. But it feels good, you know? I mean, it's not like the stress is over. School's still there. I have four quizzes and a monologue on MONDAY, and all I've memorized is one paragraph of my speech as Demeter. But it feels like this huge rock was lifted from my shoulders. And I'm just so relieved.
About the test, it was neither too easy nor too difficult. The best part of it is that I came out emotionally unscathed (unlike, ehem, UP). For that, I thank Him. All I wanted was to be able to do my best, finish on time (hopefully with minimal shotgun moments), and get out of there with no urge to cry or scream or rip my head off. :P And He, again, heeded my prayers :)
Thank you.
And thank you, Ate JB, for tolerating my myriad of queries about the ACET. Sorry for bombarding you with too many questions last night :)) And thanks to everyone who tolerated my ranting the whole week, when I was very nervous about the test. And to my parents who brought me there and helped me relax since I started studying. Haha.
Feel ko lang magpasalamat. Kasi okay ako. I feel blessed. Buti nalang :)

And it's a leap of faith
And I believe that you are out there
It's a leap of faith, when I believe that you truly care

It is so exhausting and overwhelming trying to even argue with a lawyer.
But when you win even the slightest bit, the satisfaction's priceless. And you can easily tolerate even a few days' worth of silent treatment.
I am still annoyed though. I am hating this week. How can I take the ACET with all this hate inside of me? HAHA. Okay, I'm not kidding :|
Grad picture taking's tomorrow. How can I have a decent picture taken with all this hate in me??? HAHA. Now I'm kidding.
This post is so weird. I don't even know why I'm skipping after every line.
And I seriously don't know why I'm so friggin down.
***
Is this as hard as it gets?
'Cause I'm getting tired of pretending I'm tough
I'm here if you want me
I'm yours, you can hold me
I'm empty and aching
and tumbling and breaking
Cause you don't see me, and you don't need me
And you don't love me the way I wish you would
--the way I know you could.
Sometimes I find myself shaking in the middle of the night
And then it hits me and I can't even believe this is my life
But people have problems that are worse than mine
I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
I am slowly falling apart.

I'm writing straight from my commute adventure. Literally. I still have that jeepney stench, my skin's still covered in dried up sweat. But I don't care, cause I want to give you the freshest post possible. SO I COMMUTED TODAY. No, today wasn't the first time I rode a jeep. But yes, today's my first time to ride one for a long, long trip with only a friend (and not an adult/parent/yaya) with me. For the past year, all my friends have been learning to commute alone, and after all their first trips, have been proclaiming they're officially dalaga already. I'm the only one left. Until today, that is. And I can't put to words exactly how I'm feeling, but I'm HAPPY. I'm definitely happy. Ecstatic, yeah. Proud, super. Feeling independent? YES, YES, YES!!! And I want to thank the people who have been part of this :))
1. God- because You accompanied me all the way home and kept me safe. And You heeded my prayer--You didn't let any creepy guy sit beside me and You didn't let some robber take my school bag away from me :P
2. Papa and Mama- because you, really, made this possible. Thanks for allowing me to do this, I don't regret it ONE bit!
3. Friends and blog readers- because you shared my joy in undertaking this MOMENTOUS event in my life :))
Finally, I want to thank GABRIELLE NICOLE SOCCO TORRES, who was there to accompany me and witness this rite of passage :)) You saw me act like a commuting pro, saw me hide my proud smile when we sat in that first jeep, saw me lose my cool, poise and balance when the driver kept hitting the brakes in that second jeep, and saw me achieve that sense of independence I've been longing for for so long now. I, THANK YOU, from the bottom of the frontal lobe of my cerebrum (tama ba??) ;)
DALAGA NA KO. I'm sooo not a BABY anymore :P
P.S. Papa called me just now and said, "Kain na tayo, dalaga" :)) Tapos napa-smile ako. Tapos sabi niya, "Ano ba yan, tuwang tuwa sa newfound independence niya." Ano ba kinilig ako :)) I'm a dalaga daaaaw!!!!!
P.P.S. Bumili pa siya ng Bibingka. Homaygad this is a very special day for me :))
P.P.P.S. Ano Joy, sabi ko sayo hindi na 'to ma-uudlot eh. OHA, DALAGA NA KO!!!!!!

Ohmahgad. Ohmahgad. Ohmahgad. OHMAGAAAAAAD!!!!!! DI KO MA-EXPLAIN KUNG GANO KO KA-KILIG NGAYON. SWEAR. OHMYGAAAAWD. LIFE-LONG DREAM, MATUTUPAD NA!!!!!! SERIOUSLY, YOU DON'T GET THESE EVERYDAY! SHIZ, MY HEART'S EXPLODING WITH HAPPINESS!!!!!!!!Okay let me explain.I was having an EXTREMELY TERRIBLE day. Think mainit, pawis, frizzy hair, haggard look to the maximum level. Ganun. Okay ang kadiri. Just being honest though. Alam mo yung feeling na parang pakiramdam mo nasa hell ka na sa sobrang init talaga? Basta ganun! Get mo na yun. Anyway, buong araw akong hindi maka-focus. As in, nagsasalita yung teacher tapos kung ano ano naiisip ko, kung ano ano tinitignan, minsan di ko na namalayan na hindi na pala ko nakikinig kasi parang nag-ffloat yung utak ko. Alam mo yun?? Yung days na parang you're just so out of it. LUTANG. That's the word. Tapos ayun. After ng sobrang kainitan ng panahon, biglang ulan na sobrang lakas. Dismissal na, kuhanan na ng cards. Pumunta kami nina Jodie sa Gate 3 para kumain. Edi sobrang nabasa kami. Masaya yung part na yun kasi parang naglalaro sa ulan na ewan, pero imagine naman yung lagkit ng skin mo, naulanan pa. Kaduuuuur. Tapos ito pa! Yung medyas ko nabasa rin. Huhuhuhu :(( Edi balik na sa classroom, nakita ko si Papa tapos kinuha na yung card. Tapos pumunta pa kaming San Juan kasi namatay yung Barangay Captain namin nung dun pa kami nakatira. K, di kailangan sabihin. Basta yun. Tapos yung mga tao dun, sinasabi kay Papa "Uyy dalaga na anak mo" blah blah blah. Ayoko pa naman ng ganon. Can't explain why. Tapos nung pauwi na, nakatulog ako sa kotse ng sobrang LALIM. Pagkagising ko nasa bahay na kami. Tapos inaantok pa ko, pero di na ko nakatulog ng matino kasi magsisimba pa kami to make up for the missed Sunday Mass (na, btw, pinuntahan naman namin pero na-late yung pari ng 30 mins kaya umalis na rin kami). Tapos pagdating namin sa simbahan, communion na so umuwi na lang kami. Sana natulog nalang ako diba? ANYWAY.
My point is, ang pangit ng araw ko. Sobra.
Peroooooo. For the second time, Papa (and Mama) saved the day.
You know why? You know why? You know why?????
Eto na.
PINAYAGAN NA KO MAGCOMMUTE!!!! OHMYGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!! :D :D :D :DAfter months of begging and pleading and reasoning, PUMAYAG NA RIN. Grabe. Akala ko hindi darating ang araw na 'to. Pero ito na. Malapit na. It's so close I can almost taste it! Smoke, Dirt, Air Pollution, here I cooooome!!!!! :)) About a month ago, sabi ni Papa "Hindi pa ko ready [na mag-commute ka/mag-let go sayo dahil baby ka pa]." NAEEXCITE AKO NAFFEEL NIYO BA??? Kahit nung pagalit niyang sinabi na "Wag kang aanga-anga dun ah! Kung nakikipagsiksikan mga tao, sumiksik ka rin!", masaya parin ang "Opo!" ko :)) At after some time, nung sinabi niyang "E pano kung umulan?" (kita niyo, naghahanap talaga ng dahilan para di matuloy e. pero sorry Pa, it's too laaaaate!) masaya parin ang sagot kong "Edi magdadala ko ng payong!" :P
MALAPIT NA KONG MAGING GANAP NA DALAGA :))
I'm SO EXCITED. NICOLE TORRES, I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D Teach me well ha? Para magaling na ko next time. WUHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
K, yun lang. I, thank you :))

After a really long and crappy day, sometimes all you need is to call your Dad, ask him to grab a box of your favorite Bibingka and scarf every bit of it as soon as he brings it home to you.
I'm all better now :)
