cram session

I just realized last night that I have so much work to do and so little time! :O

First and foremost, hooray! I've reserved for a hardcover of Breaking Dawn :) in Fully Booked Promenade. It was less 10% fair enough :) And I can't believe already 50+ people reserved in that branch. Imagine the whole Philippines? The whole world? It'll be dumb luck if someone found a copy of the release day itself w/o reserving. Hahaha. So I'm rest assured I'll have the copy on Aug. 4. Can't wait! ♥

I watched Made of Honor yesterday it was funny hahaha. And it was kinda nice. :]

So now I have to go finish my Chemistry homework + Computer research + study for tomorrow's Trigonometry :O

I haven't even done my layout yet! Haha! I hope I finish today! I'll be on the PC until my mom gets home and gives me a G Tec red pen. It's for...lineart. I did a new deviation last night. Inspired by some artists in dA. And from the band Hellogoodbye.

Cram session! :O

oh so random.

The stuff I'm going to post in this entry are pretty random, so get used to my randomness :D

• Do you think I should reserve for a copy of Breaking Dawn? Or just buy it on August 4? *crosses fingers* I remember the times I bought New Moon/Eclipse, all those were reserved but the cashier offered it! :O

• I won't be able to fix my blog today :( Because we're going out to watch Made of Honor :) [happy/sad lol] I learned alot for sitting 4 hours straight in front of the PC - :D

• I watched Meet The Robinsons last Saturday :] This may sound weird, it was SO NICE! Haha! The Wilbur guy looks like Joe Jonas in his younger years. lol X) As cheezy as it sounds, I almost cried! Hahaha! *embarassed*

• Most probably I'm gonna change my username to : xchasingrainbowsx because I named that after my artwork Chasing Rainbows™ and I really like the funky-ness and bubbly name :) Maybe. Still not sure.

• After editing my blog I will put link-exs! Yay! And I will put a new countdown! The BlingyBlob thing isn't really nice. And I will put music! Yay! You people would know more what preference of music I like. Some of them are actually kind of related to Twilight - the lyrics & stuff. And a wishlist. Yay! Haha!

• No classes tomorrow : Manila Day! Yay!

• Hello homework on Wednesday. Goodbye calories on Thursday - it's P.E. again!

Told you I was random.

♥ • ♥

◘ construction ◘

Still no classes. 2 day-break has started.

I'm bored!

I'm out of art ideas, my mind is woosh - blank.

BUT, I am in the mood for hurting my eyes and hurting my head simultaneously, meaning I might make a new layout for my blog, base coding from http://blogskins.com/me/detonatedlove - she's one of the best in BlogSkins!

Now I'm off to hurt my head :) And look for codes, look for backgrounds, or make one. I don't know.

P.S. Thanks to all bloghoppers visiting my blog! Maybe nextime when I finish editing my layout I might do link ex & a wishlist? And more about me sections and other stuffs. :)

ART rush!

Today, I...



• woke up. duh!
• finished my "Diary" artwork which is most probably intended for my English journal cover art:

[any reactions?]

• cooked pasta [yum! carbonara! :)]

• drank wine - nah, just sparkling red grape juice [3 servings x)]

• read Eclipse. chapters 1 & 4. [I like chapter 4 :)]

• watched TV. obviously.

• went online - still am now :)

And I'm now having a sort of boost in art. I think I will draw tomorrow. Moreover, I start doing the lineart / sketch later!! Wooh! [Art rush!]

I was inspired by http://thegirlinthebigbox.deviantart.com Trust me you'll never go wrong her works are the best!

Anyways, I read her tutorial so I'll probably follow some of her techniques and evolve my own. COOLNESS! :)

2 more days in house arrest. lol XD 4 day break. Thank you, Rain?

♥ • ♥

P.S. anyone suggest some C-pop songs that are nice? I like to listen to the ff:

- Zen Me Ban, by S.H.E.

- Dong Le and My Only Angel by TANK

*from Hana Kimi :))

Listen to Dark Blue by Jack's Mannequin I ♥ it!

6.21.2008

starting anew

It's been pretty awkward these days, I'm probably not used to the fact I don't see my best friends sitting beside me, or just right across the room doing monkey business of some sort - being in a new class isn't always as easy at it looks. I never knew how hard it would probably be.

Anyways, enough with the lousy prologues of my entries, there's more stuff to fuss about these days. We've already had our first GE in Geom, and it was confusing :O *corsses fingers* and we're supposed to have a GE in Trigo today, + Chem, Thank you for the RAIN! Well, I wanted to go to school today though. It's Club Fair! And as nerdy as it sounds, Kristin, Joyce & I are probably going to Science Club. It's a coincidence we all agreed on it 'cause I don't know, chemistry seems interesting, and there's probably plus points. Wee :) And the second club maybe Homemakers' Club - love cooking :D

Last Thursday our P.E. was drastic, but it was nice to sweat a lot to remove toxins and stuff. The sauna doesn't do justice. I didn't feel sweat coming off when me & jean went to Ace, I think what came off was the water in our body after swimming X) Anyways, I sabay-ed with Kristin to Dagupan [cousin/lives in the same bldg. with grand parents] and in the car we talked so much to catch up on stuff. And more out-of-the-blue stories and experiences from last year. From the taunting Biology Microresearch grouping [yes, VERY frustrating] to the drawing competitions, Art ideas, those stuffs...Whoa.

Yesterday, however, I didn't think there was a problem on the "ghost" anymore. It was gone?
Oh, well it was pretty weird. But it was an obligation anyway. Haha.

I miss Twilight, New Moon & Eclipse! I don't know why.

And I'm quite thankful I was able to buy New Moon & Eclipse in hardbound. It was hard-to-get! Awhile ago I brought them up and scanning the pages. Who knows I might read Eclipse later :)

For today, I'm just going to draw the cover art for the journal in English, and probably watch Hairspray after lunch. My sister & I kind agreed on it :D It would probably be nice to have a DVD on with the rainy weather. And maybe hot chocolate? Nah. I have to shed off some excess weight!

Tomorrow's gonna be study time whole day.

Yes! Later it's Hannah Montana BEst of Both Worlds. Trust me, it's not that nice. I've seen it in theaters. But the show after that is nice - Jonas Brothers, Living the Dream! ♥

I miss getting addicted to the Jonas Brothers.
I miss getting addicted to Twilight.
But.
I DON'T miss summer at all.

Why?

Because school is much better, minus the homeworks :D

the ghost.

of my past.

http://behindeverything.deviantart.com

view my journal. It's sort of a prologue. Of my entry probably...this Friday or Saturday?

About the ghost of my past.

♥ • ♥

6.17.2008

art IS my life.

It's as if I've already spent an eternity sitting in class.

From the 2 hour butt-ache to the total surprises of old & new teachers, I have personally no idea how could I possibly survive the schoolyear. Sarcastically speaking, I enjoyed this day too much I could squeal the whole 10 hours. Too much drama. Nah. Just kidding ;) I just got pissed off, that's it.

Hmm...I miss doing art! But before I elaborate on that I'll just narrate some new experiences so far.

New groupings. So our chem group is not bad, only 1 is unfamiliar to me, but, well everyone's pretty okay. I just miss last year's groupings, everyone was still getting along very well :( Oh well so much for that. My seating is all right, just right. That was where I sat last year! Talk about coincidence. Hahaha.

Last Saturday we stayed for dismissal [class officers] and tackled about some batch "agendas" or what. Ms. Ardiente is the batch adviser, and I think she's really fit for the job. Except, I'm quite terrified by her :O Don't know why. She's a good teacher, though. Our old teachers! Ms. Pacleb, Ms. Aguilar, Sir Rillo, Lio Lao Shr, Sir Magauay - they're baaaack! Which is fun because I know them already and I get to know them more this new schoolyear. And yesterday was really fun - some girl talk with Ms. Aguilar - couldn't stop laughing! And Sir Rillo is always the same old teacher we knew last year, now more...comedic? comic? in short funnier X) Lio Lao Shr comes with her same old Li Shr lectures, which I feel less pressure with 'cause I'm used to her discussions. Ms. Pacleb is the same old teacher; one of my favorites - the way she handles class, group activites - always interesting. And Sir Magauay - learned a lot from him today about...Aspartame? Protein vs. sugar. Hahahaha.

We have GE in Geom tomorrow! And we just had our first Li Shr Ling Tse today! Hua Won tomorrow!

*same old. same old......*

Regarding my friends, I still get to spend time with them, especially my best & close friends - Kristin, Nix, Joyce, Ghia, Alvin...they're the ones who are always there. But for the rest I still see them, and miss them already, old friends & seatmates like Caryn, Tiff, Peter..and many more! And of course my seatmates in class. Haha Daphne! X) fellow Twilight fan lol. I hope I could talk to more people in the class. Most of the people I talk to are people I already know. Which isn't that good. Socialize! Everyone says. lol.

Just yesterday I didn't know what to reat when Joyce said, "uy tingnan mo o!" What a shame for me to look. I saw the past that kept haunting me. Whoa. Super harsh naman. Just saw an old friend. Felt my body heating up so fast, looked away, with my mouth open. Or...I just stared blankly for a minute or two.

I don't even wanna talk about it.

--
There's Twilight HARDCOVER here already! Damn it!
I already made pabili in US! Oh well.
Breaking Dawn on August 4!

And I am losing the Twilight spirit already. By July I think I'll reread New Moon & Eclipse. Love Eclipse! I don't know which is the best. Maybe Breaking Dawn. Hahaha.
--

Math - GE
Chem- Scientific Method blahs
Huawon- 6 CHie Shrs for Ling Tse
AP- Recitation [torture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]



P.S. Daphne! What you said in the Cbox won't happen. Ever. Hahaha. And I'm not mad. Swerte mo! lol kidding x)

P.P.S. my title is like that because

I MISS DRAWING!

And damn it awhile ago I wished I drew the superhewro. Wow, we ended up drawing a drastic deviantart-like robot. Isaac Newton's brother. Talk about science weirdo freak. O_O I didn't even draw.

I'm such an idiot.

No, my classmates are such zombies. Or vampires :D No, vampire's a compliment. Zombie is an insult. Bwahaha. Joke.

♥ • ♥

6.14.2008

same old..

As always, here we go with the PRESSURE. Well, so far none yet, but next week everything will soon begin. Actually I feel so busy right now, researching some stuff, going to do around 4-5 homeworks. Imagine actually having quizzes! :O That's torture. Oh well. Just the first problem of Geometry awhile made my head spin. Or was that the Diagnostic Test in Chemistry - luckily I was average. Or maybe the super I wanted to go to sleep class in Chinese Lit awhile ago - buti nalang my seatmate called me and he was asking questions. That woke me up:)

So I need to get everything done at least tonight - to lessen my work tomorrow, it's Fathers' Day, but...I don't need to celebrate. I'm writing a letter though. Mom's orders. I'm very NR about those things.. personally. Oh well.

Today was somewhat better than yesterday, but I felt alone awhile ago - Nix in scouting. Good thing Joyce went to our classroom. So yeah. Then time was swooshing by so fast. One time we were walking from 6th floor down to ground floor, and back & forth. Whoa this could be [retty good exercise. lol X)

I haven't seen other people in campus. Hmm...very suspicious.

It's nice to see some old friends & say hi to them. Gives me the feeling that they never forgot about our friendships :)

Did I mention I'm still GM? At least now, I don't feel bad; last year I was freaking to death. Hahaha.

*Research on a scientific quote. Geez X(

6.13.2008

first day high!

As unexpected as it was, this was by far the weirdest first day of school I've ever had in my whole life. Better off, at least I wasn't bad luck. Last schoolyear I can only feel worse finding out my shoes were broken, my zipper was ripped, hook destroyed. What more : At least now I don't get to experience those unlucky tactics. lol X)

And when I entered campus it was much more of a "ugh-here-we-go-again" rather than a feeling of fear. What to be scared of? So I saw my friends, talk to them, and I'm perspiring! Note to self: NEXT YEAR, tie your hair during first days. I have my hair up right now, so presko! lol. And our adviser's name is Ms. Avillano. Our other teachers were practically okay, some new ones, some scary ones, gotta bear with it! And our new classmates are pretty weird. "Zombies" as me & Nicole call them ^^ I don't know much of the people in our batch. It was really a big change for me. Lucky for me though I sit beside Daph [wahaha!] and in front of me is Nicole [yey!] :)

And for lunch I spent it with F4L, same time same place. It just feels different without them in the class. We couldn't bond as much. But I hope we'll still remain the friendship. And my old seatmates - Alvin & Peter! So far away already :( Alvin's at the back eh. Very far. Ugh. Oh well.

It was...

All I could think of now is...umm....okay, first day's done.

WE HAVE HOMEWORK!

In Chem. It's pretty tricky. So I have to go research.

And about the Chronicles of Narnia, Prince Caspian, just...watch it. Hahaha XD

Yay! Tomorrow's Saturday! Next day is Sunday! :)

Off to work. I'm officially going to be a "nerd" again. I hope I still get honor. *Gonna do my best*

6.12.2008

terror :O

School's starting tomorrow!!! :O

I'll write about The Chronicles of Narnia [Prince Caspian] tomorrow. I'm sort of not in the mood to write. But omg it was a nice movie. And Prince Caspian!! *faints* I still like Joe Jonas. wahaha X) And Edward Cullen. lol XD

And some luck I got, I'm having retainers/expansion whatever. So I could push back my "rabbit" teeth. Ugh. I fell down when I was a kid thats why I got these bunny teeth. LOL. SO I have to wear these...for a long time. Thank goodness only the upper part. I just have a steel line in between. Tsk. lol.

SCHOOL!!!! :O :O

I'm traumatized.

6.10.2008

Frustration.

I've never been so sad my whole summer.
I'm very disappointed at myself.

And there's something I've learned about myself: I cannot make a beautiful piece of art in one day. It has to take more days - not that I feel bad about it. I'm just pressured 'cause I couldn't think of a nice way to put in my concept and make it work well. So this is what I end up with:


I know, talk about total embarassment. It's like I wanna do more art before

school starts. I'm just thinking...what to do.

revamped!

I'm pretty much bored today, so I made a somewhat simple background in Photoshop. Talk about simple, it's swirly all around! I like the color much, orange-reddish-brown combo. It's a bit different from my typical light red-peach combo.

And I didn't expect my layout to be this...flowery? Haha! I wanted to go for artsy creative, psychedelic 'do. But that'll take a lot of time, and...time is not in my hands right now. I have to get going to finish the art trade. I mean, start doing it. Haven't started. I reckon I can't finish it in a day. I've never finished a full artwork in just one day and one sitting. Haha. Let's try.

What do you think of my layout? Is it too old T_T

See ya! ♥

plus three :)

I can't imagine having classes [if ever] today. It's like, I don't feel the school spirit at all.

Thank goodness it was moved to Friday. Gives me more time to do some more art - at least. Somehow I've gotten over my "Twilight addiction" 'cause I'm done reading it, but of course I will be a fan forever. Just that I got more stuff to deal with, not just romancing about the book and stuff. I'm still waiting for Breaking Dawn & my hardcover Twilight! :)

I have an art trade with Ghia, and its due tomorrow :O I haven't started! She requested me to draw violet flowers; which, I have no idea what to do. I'm not "nature-inspired". I'm more on "imagination inspired" artwork drawings. So its definitely going to play up my senses. I wanted to do something out of the box, so guess what, I'm painting later for that silly art trade XD

On the other hand, I asked Ghia to draw a really goodlooking vampire with a girl. Obviously from Twilight. She could draw well esp. in anime so I asked her to do that. I can't possibly draw a over the top good looking guy. I practiced some doodles of Bella, Edward & Alice and I only succeeded with Bella. It kind of looked like Kristen Stewart hahaha. But that was supposed to be Rosalie! X) lol lol.

Speaking of "nature", talk about me going to the zoo yesterday. Unexpectedly it was...fun. Maybe? I don't know. I was forced to! I could've styed home and did the art trade so I could bake brownies today :( Aww. So I have to push things through. No brownies :( Anyways, I almost sank knowing that 1 tbsp of butter = 102 cal. :O

Tomorrow is last minute fun! Going to watch The Chronicles of Narnia : Prince Caspian woohoo! Jean kasi eh! She watched with her "someone" so I'm going with my siblings to Shang tomorrow to watch. Hopefully some shopping. Yay :]

On Thursday we're going to my lola's house and going home early.

On Friday? SCHOOL.

Why does this freedom have to end???

6.08.2008

kept within

Until now I've always wondered when would I possibly tell people things...they [probably] ought to know or, I want them to know. Of course it would be really hard; although, the idea of a possible "no more time left" thought always came to my mind. What if everything was gone? And they still never knew? Not that it would play an effect on them, sometimes I just want to say it to that person, but something's holding me back. Besides, if I did tell "him", then the friendship we once had will most definitely be ruined.


Oh well. For now I'll just keep it in my head. Someday he will know. Maybe when I'm ready enough. LOL.

--


So much for a "serious" matter, I still talk to that person, at least, and everything's going fine. [Right.]


P.S. He is not "past". He actually filled my hole during my darkest hours. [Like what Jacob did to Bella. Hah!]


--

I have a new art! Woohoo! :) I missed drawing. When I compared this to all my others it definitely stood out. One of my faves right now. :)


Chasing Rainbows

6.06.2008

looking back

I'm reading Twilight all over again. It feels awesome! Though some parts in the movie were far different from the ones in the book. Like the part when bella asks Edward how old he is. That happened in the car pala after Edward saved Bella in Port Angeles. Oh well, so much about that.

I cant believe summer's ending. Like I want it to end. Urgh! I had somewhat fun, not really "a lot", typically, but in a way. Hey, I read Twilight. That made my summer interesting. :)

But the best part is that I've spent times with my cousins, even if sometimes I feel sick seeing them 24/7. Well, of course not all of them. Jean doesn't make me sick. She kind of brightens up my life, in a way. Hello, she's like a big sister. Only I don't treat her like she's older. LOL. Well. Everyone thinks I'm older anyways. But I don't like the "compliment" at all. X)

I have no idea how could I still be playing guitar. Hmm. Maybe I know a thing or two but I don't think I'll last long. It'll just be good that at least I know how to play some songs, learn some chords, distinguish the notes in a piece...that ought to be enough. Haha.

This may be pretty offly weird, but I'm too lazy to finish my drawing. I did one last Wednesday. It was...all right. Somehow. But I don't think I'd be finishing it today - laziness struck. But I'm proud of my old works. How they continue to show my worth as an artist. Like I care, I need to do better than that, anyhow.

Its a shame as well I'd have to go to school and face the people who have given me so much problems over the years. problems & thoughts that'll never silence forever. But. Everything changes anyways. Lets see when the hell would it get out of my head. I'm not problematic about it either. Just that when I hear it, it tends to give me the nerve, the annoyance at some point. Even if I'd already buried those surreal thoughts in my utterly boring Grade School life.

Well, theres nothing to do but to face the future. I'm going to be a Junior. What the hell? I'm getting old :O And I'm truning sixteen next year - As if I'd be interested in that. I'm more interested in watching Twilight. lol. XD

all out for it

I am probably going to use my own money [and I don't care!] to buy Breaking Dawn when it comes out on August 4 here in the PH. The hardcover costs P739! :O Well I wanted hardcover anyways. I suppose it's much better.

I just read the preview Chapter 1, entitled ENGAGED for Breaking Dawn. It was still so bitin! Haha! It's cool though, Edward gave Bella a Mercedes. Malamang! The '53 Chevy truck died I think. And the ring...hahaha! That's all that I found out in the preview. Nothing much, actually.

2 months isn't long...besides, I'm going to get my hardcover Twilight on the same month when my cousin comes back from US :) I could've asked him to buy Breaking Dawn as well but I only sent $20. lol. Anyways. Let's just hope for some more luck for me to buy a hardcover. It's so...hard to look for those!

I wonder what would happen when January comes near. [Whoa, tagal pa nun ah] We will *hopefully* watch Twilight the movie on January 10! Yes, assigned date. It was planned by me, Den & Steff. [pinky swore lol] I hope there's no after school stay or something. I'm definitely gonna head home after school right away and go to Promenade. Can't wait! :D

--
off to read Twilight again. :)

hanging

I finished reading Eclipse last Wednesday.

My reaction? T_T

It was so bitin! It really left me hanging and wanting more! Besides, I wasn't convinced with the Epilogue because it was written in Jacob Black's perspective.

When will Bella ever become a vampire? Haha.

I have to wait 2 more months to get my hardcover of Twilight and *hopefully* hardcover of Breaking Dawn.
--
So much for that. For now I am just so bored. And so sick, too! What a way to start this June. Everyone's sick at home, and so I end up the same. It kills me! I'm so energy-less and I couldn't do anything about it! :(

I think I'm gonna put a countdown for the twilight movie. hahaha. Feel like it lang :D

6.04.2008

The sweetest thing ever

If I only had one wish, well, I would most probably wish that someone would "love" me the way Edward loves Bella.♥

You don't get it, do you?

MY mouth fell open when I was reading Chapter 20, COMPROMISE in Eclipse. Well Bella was kind of insane I could say, I wouldn't do what she wanted from Edward, but...he was so selfless. That's the word. He proposed to Bella. Aaaaaahhh!! So touching. It was in Chapter 23 that Bella was...ugh Jacob Black! I can't believe Edward was so understanding about it. Oh well. I'm up to the part when Edward & Bella caught sight of Victoria :O I'm too excited to read that part, I ought to put some suspense to read it later through the day.

--
For the meantime I thought maybe I could do some art for 3 hours this afternoon. After which I'll have to go to the derma for last-minute cleaning. I have a somewhat strong concept ahead, let's see if it'll come out good on paper. It's exactly 1 month I took a break from art. Whoa.

Today was our last guitar lesson. Aww :( My teacher taught me Your Guardian Angel. Supposed to be Tongue Tied but the chords were vaguely heard daw. I couldn't quite figure out the strum pattern of Your Guardian Angel. But the song blasted me to the past I once had. So sad :(

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

The horror! X)

--
"Look after my heart - I've left it with you."
- Edward Cullen

--
P.S. I couldn't stop laughing while reading Eclipse. There were some funny parts. Like when Jacob said to Edward [fighting over Bella] , "May the best man win," And I think Edward told Jacob, "That depends what you are...pup" HAHAHA! [Jacob's a werewolf kasi.] More blooper parts. I forgot the others though. Hahahaha.

Pretty weird when Charlie was sermoning Bella about ___. As if they're that irresponsible. "Edward is old-fashioned." Bella reacted. Well I didn't think Bella is. She was over the top in Chapter 20.

6.03.2008

the last few days.

of summer. Hmm. So I guess I'm making the utterly most out of it. After all, I'm going to miss staying at home reading Twilight series the whole day, or visit Steffi's house spoiling about random Twilight scenes or texting Denise and tempting her to keep reading on, or discuss with Daphne stuff about Twilight. Yes, this June, my life seems to revolve much on Twilight itself - Nah, not really.

I still have my life all well. :)

Oh, I'd just wish that there was something in real life as the magic of love found in the book. Like there's really something like destiny. Oh, I'd wished for that all right. Regardless of anything else.

--

I baked cookies today. I know, what the hell was I thinking? :) Well it was all right, it was all worth it. But before that - oh gosh, the tiny kitchen of ours was like it was messed up like someone had been in there. Well I'm not much of a baker. I'd rather cook, but I admit - onion & garlic smell kind of pisses me off. Especially in here, our house. It cooks like crazy. One smell and the aroma comes right up to your nose. Greaaaaatttt. So I'm sick of garlic onion stuffs. I'd rather watch Food network the whole day and get utterly jealous when Giada de Laurentis and Ina Garten wound up some delicious delicacies in their wonderful kitchen. *wishes to taste all kinda of cheeses but there's no such thing here in Manila* And the desserts :O It kills me! I make some of them here and it's half-worse than what I see on TV. hahaha.

Speaking of "yummy" food last Saturday after the recital we walked around the Greenbelt compound, which kind of ticked me off. My heels were killing me. In fact, it wasn't mine, either way - it was Jean's. Even if I wore stockings underneath. Oh, it was WORSE when I removed the stockings. We went inside Gucci [wow for the first time] 'cause my mom wanted a designer bag - her first & only designer bag. So we [Jean & I] were just standing and looking at the clothes & bags. OMG P70 000 for a jacket. Get out. :

I'm happy for mom though she got a nice bag. Next time, when I grow up I ought to buy a designer handbag as well. Only one though. I'll use it with my salary. And since I've been to US I've concluded that I will buy a Coach bag. I've been to their outlet store. Awesome, awesome, awesome ;)

That's not why I mentioned yummy food. I couldn't possibly say entering a frikin expensive bag store could make me satisfied. The prices guilt me off. With one bag you can buy 3 iPod videos already! We walked around and decided to have lunch/merienda at Cafe Breton.

Cafe Breton- I've never been there in years! My clearest memory was when I was like 8 or 9, and we ate in Cafe Breton during halloween, in Tomas Morato. They held contests there, and the nearby restaurant had a real coffin in their entrance! With an alive person! My god it just creeps me off :O

This time, no coffins though ;) Me Jean & mom ate their Galette Bretonne & Galette ... I forgot. And it was so yummy! To think it was twice as healthy - no carbs, no rice :) Great. And a guilty pleasure for dessert - ice cold ice cream over hot crepe :))

--
So much for food tripping. Right now I'm currently downloading songs in LimeWire. Got the songs in the "playlist" of New Moon. Some of the songs are nice. I liked Memory by Sugarcult. My playlist is currently empty. I'm just listening to old songs I always listen.

Here are some amazing songs from my iPod:
• Hear You Me - Jimmy Eat World
• Falling Down - Avril Lavigne
• Stop and Stare - One Republic
• Six Feet Under The Stars - All Time Low
• Anything But Ordinary - Avril Lavigne
• Franklin - Paramore
• Don't Wait - Dashboard Confessional
• Whatever It Takes - Lifehouse

I'm currently music updated-less. Leave a message in my Cbox on what songs to download.

I like alternative/emo kind of songs. Those that have nice lyrics. And! not acapella. Imogen Heap creeps me to death :O

Off to read Eclipse! ♥

sudden joy!

ECLIPSE!!! My mom bought it already!!

WOOHOO!!!

Haha. Too overreacting.

MALAMANG.

LAST COPY, Fully Booked. ALSO RESERVED!!!

You snooze, you lose! talaga!!!!

This means I could give Steffi's book back! I have my fellow spoiler again! lol.

Waiting for Breaking Dawn now.

Bella & Edward ♥

caught in the act

:O
I didn't tell my mom I borrowed Eclipse; she might be furious. Well, she was awhile ago after I ate lunch. Guess she got pretty confused with the three titles. Anyhow, I'm still asking her to buy. Even if she said reading a book would mean you'd leave it forever hanging, not touched after reading once. I doubt it. I'm now reading Twilight online, what's that supposed to mean? I've already read it once. Someday when I get old I'll probably store it in an ancient bookshelf and browse on it and probably remember the moment I am in now. I suppose it ought to be that way. lol too much of an ambition. I haven't even graduated High School yet! Not that I'm looking forward to it. 2 more years of fun I hope. Whatever.
Off to reading again.

Last-minute / one-day FUN

I had forgotten that it's already June. What a shame. Hahaha.

I miss drawing!

I don't get it, I want to but I can't fit it in my schedule! I/m pretty much occupied for the past few days. I'll get over my busy-ness on Friday. 'Cause guitar sessions are over by tomorrow. I will miss it. :(

I just learned how to play Collide the other day. At least I'm not half-bad at playing it as last week. :)

Yesterday it was sorta fun since we went to Ace Water Spa! Haha! I miss that place with all the massages & stuff, and the hot herbal pools :)) As usual you could see the generous amount of people visiting there every single day. They ought to have a good business income of some sort. Not to mention there's a cafe inside, which serves affordable & deliciously cooked food for each one's tastebuds.

Good thing I have Jean! She's my kasama the whole time of course with my other young cousins. Too bad my younger sister couldn't go with us. As you know, monthly visitor. :

We tried all massages [obviously] and we even went inside the sauna which was so hot I found it quite hard to breathe. We also went into the steam thingy. In short we went to every place. Then we had dinner there na din. It was wise for us to split in one meal - me & Jean, we're kinda, you know, not eating much. Besides, in a day all I do is sit, watch TV [in this case I already read books and not watch TV] eat, maybe cook my own breakfast of some sort. And later gonna bake. My mom just bought a mixer and she said if we wanted to bake. Okay then. Doing it later. Which reminds me, guitar! Fifth & Sixth strings are confusing me. I'll get used to it. But in just an interval of one day?? How's that gonna work?

Told you I'm busy. I probably have short time left going online. Well, I rarely go online anyways. Haha.

I've missed dA a lot! I was happy browsing messages the other day. Good to be back.

I hope to have come up with a deviation soon!

Now I'm off to lunch. I'm starving like crazy. X)

Total "Eclipse".

I have just received an e-mail today from frikin National Bookstore saying, " I'm sorry Eclipse is out of stock. Your order has been cancelled." This is what I get for ordering at National Bookstore.

WTF?!

Sorry for the harshness. Thank goodness I borrowed Steffi's book so I could entertain myself over the last week of summer. So now I don't feel so bad. Halfway through Eclipse already. It's getting more intriguing, especially when Rosalie & jasper talk about their history as humans. And Bella's graduation. The time is almost near for her to transform BUT there's this new headline creeping the heck out of the vampires AND werewolves. Jacob ♥ Bella? Hope it's not an imprint.

So I've spoiled too much. You'll get to it once you read it.

Stephenie Meyer is a genius, seriously. Her mind is extraordinary.

Let's just hope there's a hardcover of Eclipse in Fully Booked, Gateway. If not, then I suppose I'll just buy the paperback? Gad it'd disappoint me alot. Hardcover is like, so awesome you can leave the book anywhere and rest assure its not that ruined unlike paperback ones. Urgh!

No, I'll wait for a hardcover one. It depends.

--

I can't believe I just saw E-Books of Stephenie Meyer's novels. Isn't that against copyright law or something? It's not fair! The others just read it online! :(
But the feeling of reading it from a book is way different anyhow.

See ya. Gonna read Twilight Ebooks....after I read Eclipse.

You don't know how much I want to read twilight over and over again. Hahaha.

Edward is so...romantic :O [in Eclipse]

"Look after my heart - I've left it with you."

Agony without art.

[and agony without reading Eclipse yet, but I'm trying to get over the depression.]

It isn't easy taking a fair break from something I've always loved doing. I had to resist, somehow, ashamed, scared to hold up a pen and end up with a bunch of crap doodles fixed over no concept or certain idea or vision. That's what it's been like for almost a month now. And the more I think of it, the more depressed I feel [malamang] because its' like I don't even take out some paper & experiment. Why? I'm really scared. Afraid taking risks & leaving my comfort zone. Not only that, I pretty much keep myself occupied with other things lately I barely have time to sit in a corner and draw. But not now, really. School's almost arriving and the more I think of it the less I could probably think of doing a last minute drawing to sum up all I did this summer.

The nerve, I hate it when I open my dA account and find messages getting lower, pageviews not increasing, but worst of all, no addition of new deviations on my palette. When everyone thinks drawing is just knowing the basics, I'd have to say it's probably worse than that. And more complicated. It's not like everyone could just come up with something, exhibit it on paper and not knowing what the hell it means - that's just like saying you draw something without even knowing it was you who did it. One way or another it just is pressuring me right now. Yes, that's the perfect word for it. Pressure. Oh well, as much as I have died trying to do away good outcomes with my art, I'm sad to say I've pretty much failed.

But I didn't say I'm giving up.

Maybe I won't. I guess I've done too much artsy works over a year now. like, 20+ or 30+, counting my "old" artworks that I mostly hate, because I've neglected it's "once" beauty. Perhaps everything will find its way somehow. And someday I'd be able to regain my creativity & probably, luck.
