i'm currently feeling
The current mood of mickiego@yahoo.com at www.imood.com
i left the computer lab at school a few minutes ago cuz someone announced that it wasn't raining anymore. eeechh... i hate the smell of rain here in dirty old polluted taft ave. when i was back in the province i always reveled in the smell of rain but now it's just pure bleeeeeechhh! anyway, when i went back to the dorm, i found out that i was running out of sanitary napkins. so i went to the nearest convenience store and on the way back, i passed by this "crappy" internet cafe. i couldn't resist the urge to blog again! oh well... since the last time i blogged, nothing much has happened. of course, in a span of 30 mins, a monotonous life like mine wouldn't have anything new to tell. oh yeah, my mom texted me that one of my uncle's filthy rich friends got kidnapped. gosh! his wife, after prolonged torture, had to pay for the 2 million peso ransom. jeez! some things crazy people do for money! i can't stay on the net too long cuz i only have 65 bucks with me now. my head's kinda' feeling a little achey. i guess it's because of the unpredictable weather here. this morning it was hot like hell and now it's raining. when i get back to the dorm, i plan to have nice little nap, hoping that when i get up again, i'll be feeling better. i also plan to do some of my stat homework while the lecture we had this morning is still fresh on my mind.
do you like my new title? i think this one's better cuz with the old one... well, i don't even know exactly what mundane means! hehe.. as usual i'm in one of the computer labs in school again. there was a sign outside that said "class going on" but when i went in the S.A said i could use one of the computers.
i woke up 1 hour later than the usual this morning because my kind lit teacher gave us a free period. but i still had a hard time getting up cuz i slept really late last night. 'twas already around 1:00 in the morning when i finally slipped under the covers and ventured into dreamland. i talked with HIM on the phone last night and i gotta say our conversation made me feel really really good. God, i'm missing him so much... moving on... i'm pretty bummed about the results of my stat seatwork. because of plain carelessness and stupidity, i forgot to write down the formulas (formulae?) and got a lowly 20 over 31. =( oh well... there's always a next time. during filipino, our prof gave us an assignment wherein we have to do this radio drama. but he wasn't very clear about it, just told us to bring casette tapes on our next meeting. during history, my prof was his usual silly, energetic self. we discussed about barangays and how they evolved through time. he also told us this uber corny joke abut pampangeños and how they always omitted the H's where it was not supposed to be omitted and added H's where they were not supposed to be added. (i.e, indi instead of hindi) but heck, it made hildy and i laugh non-stop. (hilds, a-a-a-a-a-a-a!!!) after class, i went to the dorm for a quick lunch of beef caldereta, freshened up, dropped off some of my things then went back to the TLS office. i was supposed to help my editor interview the new applicants but in the middle of interviewing this guy, i was asked to take pictures of this variety show that was about to start in a few minutes. so i went back to the dorm, got my cam and went to the auditorium. the show was pretty boring cuz i didn't recognize any of the performers except for Bebang's Carenderia. yeah bevs! you rock!!! also, there was also this guy who performed "wherever you will go" by the calling. man! he was soooo good! his voice was all husky and oooooh... he's just soooo cute. hehe... after the show, i went back to the office where i talked to karen about my photo essay. gosh, i'm still not sure about the "message" that i want to send to the audience. i tried thinking very hard about it last night, even went over to joy's room for some help (thank's joyings!) but until now i'm still so confused. i'm going to consult my editor about it tonight and show him some of the ideas that i came up with. hope he'll be able to get me on the right track. anyways... karen, paolo, ric (TLS peeps) and i headed down to mcdo to grab a drink and hang out. i had mcfloat which is this new concoction made of coke and hot fudge sundae. the first time i tasted it, i wasn't it's biggest fan but now, i'm starting to like it. however, i must not become a fanatic cuz mcfloat is uber fatty! plus, i haven't been swimming for the past 3 days cuz it's the time of the month again. i hope to start working out again next week. it started to rain while we were walking back to school from mcdo, good thing we didn't get soaked.
i'm starting to read "the vagina monologues" by eve ensler. i was supposed to read "divine secrets of the yaya sisterhood" but then i was turned off by the super duper tiny letters! so when joy lent me her book (thanks again!), i decided on reading it first before "yaya". oh yeah, i'm also addicted to this new game on my palm. it's called bubbles.
just a thought : is Abu Sabaya really dead???!!!

i'm back to blog again! heheheh... oh yeah, the scooby doo movie was quite alright. i just didn't like the ending. i didn't expect the villain was gonna be ******* *** (for the sake of those who haven't seen the movie.hehe i don't wana spoil the movie for them). i think it was so nasty of the producers to make him the bad guy. but generally, 'twas pretty good. nothing really extraordinary. just the type of movie you'd forget about in a couple of months. i also finished reading kitchen by banana yashimoto. i bought the book yesterday after watching scooby doo and after a few hours strolling at glorieta with katz and wari (yiheeeeeeee.... blooming love lives! heheheh!) anyway, the book was so much fun to read. it made me feel really attached to the characters even just after reading the first few pages. the book was full of wit, with weird twists in the plots and just plain fun to read. it made tragedies (specifically deaths) seem easy to handle. the book made me realize that even if you lose someone you truly love, it's not yet the end of the world. i'd definitely get myself a copy of another book by the banana yashimoto, preferably the one entitled "asleep". one of my fellow TLSians told me that book's kinda' cool too. but i guess that'll have to wait cuz i still have to books to read. one being "divine secrets of the yaya sisterhood" cuz i wanna read it before the movie comes out and also "vagina monologues" (courtesy of joy hehe!). i'll probably start reading "yaya" tonight. see, until now, even if i've been in school for almost a whole month, i haven't been doing too many projects or assignments. don't get me wrong cuz i definitely am not complaining. i just find it quite weird cuz i really expected this term to be super heavy with all the reading subjects we're having. but then again, i shouldn't speak too soon.

hilds! salamat sa iyong pag sign sa aking guestbook. ikaw ay isang napakagaling na makata. hehe! mabuhay kayo nang minamahal mo sa buhay! rp tayo tom ah! see you! =)
i got a 3.5 in my p.e practical test today! wooohoooo!!! =) oh by the way in my school, 4.0 is the highest. i didn't expect the teacher to be uber generous heheheheheh... i guess she saw through all my hard work and effort even i kept losing control of that stupid basketball. during my developmental reading class, we did went through some texts, analyzed them, gave our insights and comments on them and even gave one our very own ending. mine was pretty predictable. i guess my creative juices just weren't flowing that time. this class is so far the only class i'm thoroughly enjoying this term. during my philo class, all of my classmates were just going hyper. see, we tackled this topic on skepticism. i didn't really understand it cuz the one tasked to do the reporting was sooooo vague. he didn't know how to explain! so i was just half listening to him and half texting with HIM. (he finally texted me during class after almost 24 hours of silence). after the reporter presented his topic, many of my classmates started interrogating him. the poor guy! i mean, he was trying his best to answer their questions it's just that he was soooo malabo. the questions and answers kept going in circles until the teacher had to stop us. jeez! for the first time, i didn't fall asleep during philo! after class, hildy, chris lei and i went to the psychology department to pass our application forms for majoring. gosh i can't believe i'm starting to take up my major subjects next term. it kinda' makes me feel so old and so upperclassman already. duh, mickie! you ARE an upperclassman! but deep inside, i still feel like a froshie (as they call it in my university). i mean time has flown by so fast that it's only now that i came to realize i'm already in my second year in college. oh well... i went up to the SC office where i met some of my fellow TLSians. they were there to watch 3 applicants who were taking the test. gosh, it looked like they were having such a difficult time! teehee! karen showed me the rough draft for the photo essay. i think she did a really good job on it, (thanks karen!!! mwah! ) save for a couple of mistakes here and there. i haven't shown the draft to my editor yet but the editor in chief told me the she didn't quite get the message of the whole essay. so i guess i better do more work on the supporting text. karen and i grabbed a bite to eat at a nearby caf (taco salad! yumyumyum!) then headed down here to one of the computer labs in school. i'm trying to change the template cuz i found a really cool one at MIZ graphics and the best part was, it's totally free! but i haven't quite figured out how to do the whole process. see, i'm that ignorant with this whole html thingy. jeez... so what am i doing here?

i got up this morning to a beep on my cell phone. i was hoping it was HIM but no... 'twas someone else. he hasn't texted me since last night =( anyway... my dad and i had this complementary breakfast of toast and fruit at the roofdeck of the hotel. the view was just absolutely breathtaking! at around 11:00, we checked out and met uncle rogi at the parking. we drove the short distance back to the dorm, hugged my dad and kissed him goodbye. he's probably taking a flight back to cebu this afternoon. at the dorm, i took a quick shower got semi-dressed then headed down to this crappy internet cafe again. argh! i so wanna have my own phone line already! so that's about it so far. in a few hours, i'll be going to g4 to meet katz and wari. we're gonna watch scooby doo! yeah!!! =)

kar! thanks for signing sa guestbook! =)
damn it!!! lesson no. 1. don't type very long posts. sorry 'bout that last post. it was supposed to go on for a couple more lines but i dunno what happened there. grrrrrrrrrrr! my fingers are kinda' killing me already so to make the long story short, my dad and i attended the wedding at san agustin church then went to this weird chinese manghuhula ('twas against my will though!) then went to gloria maris resto in greenhills for the reception. we got back at the hotel at around 1130 pm and i had one of the best sleeps i had in weeks. 'till my next post!
yes!!!! my blog's working again. i was supposed to blog yesterday but i think blogger was down. i typed in 2 very very long and i mean LONG posts but when i clicked publish, blogger says error! arrrrgh! so... i'll do my best to replicate what i was supposed to post yesterday. here goes...

i remembered having a really good dream the other night. it was so good that i didn't want to wake up at all but i don't recall what really happened. unlucky for me, mr. sun was already peeping through my blinds hurting my eyes so much that even if i tried to hide under the covers, sleep was just impossible. 'twas only 830 in the morning for chrissake! also, the girls next door were talking and giggling so loudly! i wanted to go on over, bang on their door and scream "SHUT THE HELL UP! SOMEONE'S TRYING TO SLEEP HERE!" but being the good girl that i am, i just got up, and switched on the tube. i tuned in to 5 and up, the digital LG quiz and the MYX hit chart. notice they're all local programs. see, one of the luxuries robbed off me when i moved to the dorm is cable tv cuz it's bawal there. you can just imagine how much i'm missing mtv, hbo, espn and the lifestyle channel. but heck, at least i have tv! i chowed down the rest of my tortillos chips and had a cup of yoghurt for breakfast. then, i got off my butt and went into a cleaning frenzy. i swept the floor, wiped the dust off my ref and my full length mirror and changed the sheets on my bed. while taking my bath, i listened to hanson's "this time around" cd. gosh! it's been so long since i last listened to them. see, i was this huge hanson fan way back in second year and i still am until now! hehehehhe... so i didn't find it quite surprising to find myself still singing to each and every song word for word. i'm still a teeny bopper at heart. =) then i packed my bag for an overnight stay at a nearby hotel with my dad. he's coming over to attend the wedding of one of his friend's sons. i then headed down to this crappy internet cafe. it's the only
lemme just see if this thing's working already... =)
