Finally Un-Lazy XD

Oh God . It`s been an effin long time since I last updated this blog . I guess I`ve been too busy. .too busy being lazy . w00t w00t XD

Anyway....updates . Weh . They are not arranged in any particular order though .

Let`s Talk Business......&& Math .
Have you seen the symbol for justice ? The woman with the balancing scales .. Yeah , her . Well , that`s the image that formed in my head when I decided [ for the nth time ] what would be the course that I would take up .

At the start of the school year , I`ve decided that Accountancy would be the course . But at the end of the school year , Computer Science was what I wanted to take up . My mom advised me to get the prospectus for both of those courses .

When I looked at the prospectus of Com. Sci., I was shocked. There`s calculus every year ! @_@ Whereas in Accountancy , only one or two years have calculus in it . What a relief .

I finally finished enrolling for Accountancy last Friday, April 11, 2oo8 . I didn`t know enrolling in Ateneo de Davao College would be so friggin tiring && long . I mean there are like countless forms to fill up && their are 1o steps . So like...Weh [ lol ] . There was even that 15 minute video that was utterly useless because it was only about the Guidance Center there . The only fun part for me was the interview . My interviewer looked kinda like Sir Sayman . Lulz XD

Ugh , my section BTW is 1A [ Honor`s class ! @_@ ] . I think I need more than luck xD


Where`s The Exclamation Point ?
Recently , Panic! at the Disco released their new album entitled "Pretty. Odd." . At the time I heard about it , my dad was in Hongkong , so I asked him if he could buy me one . Unfortunately , he was busy with meetings with some Chinese bussinessmen so I just downloaded their songs [ Go Limewire ! XD ] .

Anyway , I was in a state of shock [ ? ] && dissapointment because P!ATD didn`t sound like their oldselves anymore . The song titles come from its lyrics which is not their usual trait . Also , the "techno feel" in their songs are gone , compared to their first album , "A Fever You Can`t Sweat Out" . For me , they now sound something like The Beatles or Fall Out Boy [ uhh toink ? @_@ ] . Oh well . I still love them , especially Brendon Urie [ XD ] .

The only song I truly love in their new album is this :


Weh . I love teh video too♥
Oh BTW , they took out the exclamation point in their name . Awwwe . I only think though @_@


5 is fun . Weh XD
Oh yey . 4 - Gonzaga [ my former section ] won 5th place in the Graduation Song Contest thingy . I never expected for it to win because we only did it in like one day [ weh ? XD ] . But I`m already proud that we made it to 5th place :D

This is our song :


Lyrics : [ by Marc Fortes && Jamira Martinez ]
I:
So many faces , yet too little smiles
Feels like I`m walking a thousand miles
Drowning in a sea of confusion
Feels like I`m trapped in a never ending illusion

II:
But with my schoolbag full of hopes && dreams
The sea feels shallower than it seems
Then I look up at the cloud-filled sky
With my head && heart held up high

&& I say (4x)...

CHORUS:
I won`t let this moment pass away
In this greatest game I ever played
Moving forward
I lay all my cards down
&& hope my luck will find its way

III:
Time will tick, but I don`t care
Cuz I`ll be grabbing every dream out there
Having the time of our lives
While treasuring the good times

&& I say (2x)..

* Repeat CHORUS *

As I`m about to leave with a smile ,
I could say it has been great even for a while
All the memories of yesterday
While never be drifted away.. away awayy...

&& I say (2x)...


* Repeat CHORUS 2x *


The winners of the grad song are as follows :
5th : 4 - Gonzaga
4th : 4 - Berchmans && 4 - Favre
3rd : 4 - Kostka
2nd : 4 - Xavier
1st : 4 - Canisius

Congrats to 4 - Canisius ! I like their grad song though . I love the lines :
"Let`s pack all our bags cuz the taxi is waiting
To go to a new place,
To a new beginning"
Awwe :D


Greatest Game I Ever Played (:
April 4, 2oo8 : Baccalaureate Mass for Batch `o8 .
April 5, 2oo8 : 59th Commencement Exercises .

The Seniors of year 2oo8 have finally graduated . Woosh .
Bye2x Ateneo High , my alma matter .
Hello, Ateneo College , the one near Boyztrek [ bwahahahaha ! XD ]

Krispy Kreme && A Demented Bear.. Better Yet , Shobe Is Back :D

Krispy Kreme doughnuts and a demented bear cellphone accessory = Shobe Jemiel`s "pasalubongs" for me . Yey ! XD

She just recently went to Manila && Hongkong [ some family thing / vacation , I think ] . I didn`t realize how I terribly missed her . I know , it sounds kinda lesbo but yeah [ XD ] . I`m glad she`s back , even for a while [ She`s going back to Manila after April 22 ] .

She had this "surprise" plan for Ahia Don . She didn`t tell him he would be coming back on that day [ the other day ] . So we devised a plan that Shobe Jemiel would surprise him x]]

We hung out the other day at NCCC Mall . She went to my house first [ Gian was with her] . The three of us , together with my middle bro [ the driver ] && his girlfriend , went to NCCC Mall together . Peter && Ahia Don were already there , playing Guitar Hero .

So when Gian, Shobe && I arrived , I texted Peter that we would be meeting up in G-Mix . Shobe Jemiel hid somewhere while I went inside G-Mix , but Ahia Don && Peter weren`t there . Suddenly , someone hugged me from the back [ It was Peter ! ^^, ] . I smiled at him , then at Ahia Don . Gian was also standing there .

Shobe Jemiel suddenly appeared but Ahia Don didn`t see her since his back was facing Shobe . Then she covered Ahia Don`s eyes with her hand . Ahia Don took off her hand, then lo && behold, the rare smile of Ahia Don showed up in his face when he saw Shobe Jemiel .

After all of that , the five of us watched Doomsday . I felt kinda sorry for G though . Tsk .


Down With The Sickness
What`s with the people around me nowadays ? Almost everyone I know has the flu/cough/colds or major sicknesses like dengue [ poor yayo :( ] .

Is summer now a sickness ? Lol . I just hope they get better .


Schools Apart
Ugh . I`m in AdJ , Mr. Three`s at San Pedro College . *sigh*


Night of Senior`s o8
After how many years , the Ateneo finally had a Senior`s Bash/Party && we were the batch lucky enough to experience it . The theme for attire was Glam Rock . It was held on the 3oth of March, 2oo8 , at The Venue .

I can say it was pretty fun , but Rache && I left the Bash quite unfulfilled because we were supposed to talk to "certain people" . Tsk2 .

But all in all, it was truly a night to remember for the Seniors (:


Play, Super Play ! XD
A conversation I had with my dad last March [ 2nd week ] :
My dad : "What do you want as your graduation gift?"
Me : "A family trip to Japan! Oh please please please!"
*I pause after saying that, thinking things over*
Then I said : "Oh, I know . NVM that . I want a PSP!"

So my dad promised to buy me a PSP . It was a good timing too, because on the last week of March, he went to Hongkong [ some business trip but he && his boss had time to shop ] . While there , he texted my mom that he had already bought my graduation gift . As the sly person I am , I read that text && I assumed it was already the PSP . I texted him but he wouldn`t tell me [ hmpf XD ] .

Too bad though , he went back to Davao on the night of the Senior`s Bash so I had to wait until the Senior`s Bash was over till I saw my graduation gift .

When I arrived home from The Venue, I went straight to my parents` room . Then YES, a PSP was there . Its color is Ceramic White [ hmmm ] . It had a nice black && white case with it [ hmmm again ] . UMDs [ Universal Media Disk ] were included . The UMDs I got were The Godfather && Capcom Classics . Cool ! I thanked my dad about a thousand times for that . He also bought me other stuff [ a Panda headgear && backpack . Weh ! XD ]

Now, I`m completely in love && addicted to my PSP , especially this game :



Go Patapon ! XD


Dai Beetch ! XD
Damn . I absolutely l♥ve this video [ though kinda morbid ] . Evidence by Urbandub . You`d really say "Dai beetch, dai!" XD




Oh , Shoot!
Yey , my gun [ a real one ] `s finally arriving this Thursday . I can`t wait to start shooting :9


Dark dark dark... Chocolate ♥
My middle bro`s girlfriend just recently came back from the States [ specifically in San Francisco ] . When she came back , she gave me a pack of dark chocolates . The brand`s Ghirardelli && I absolutely love them ! It`s 6o% cacao && super yummy . The only sad thing though is that there are only few pieces left . Oh well XD


I guess that`s about it for my updates . Weh ! :D

One - Zero - Zero

MIRAI`S DRAMACHINE FINALLY HITS THE ONE - ZERO - ZERO POST :D

Whew ! My hundredth post here in my so called "blog" . I never thought I`d reach this . I`ve also decided to stay here && to not delete this , despite the "memories" . Hmm... What to write , what to write [ or what to type XD ]

First thing`s first ! UPDATES . Weh .

Cupid Gave Me My Own Spiderman
When I heard [ or read ] that Mr. Ebony was giving up , Ms. Ivory [ I ] did too [ without me realizing it ] Eow . But then , Stupid Cupid hit my poor && unconscious heart waaaay before Valentine`s Day . It was around early January when I officially met "him" [ nickname : three ] . I think I`ve met him since I was still a Sophomore , because he was my good friend`s *cough* classmate .

Anyway , around January 8 or 9 , we were introduced to each other . Needless to say , we really hit off , even though we "just met" . We talked mostly about computer games . Suddenly my bestfriend [ Ms. Smowl ] said that I was a pervert *but she actually said manyak* [ I totally LOL at that~ XD ] . Mr. Three just laughed . When it was time for me to go home , Mr. Three said : "Bye Jamanyak!" . I`ll never forget that . But then , he had a girlfriend . So I was kinda down about that . I could safely he was my bestfriend...a really sweet one . We played Flyff together .[ I influenced him ] . I was sooooo comfortable with him cuz I could be myself . So to cut the story , Cupid broke off the arrow between Three && his gf && hit me instead . Waaaaa (:

V-Day , May-day [ ? ]
Well well well . I never thought I`d be super duper really total
ly 1ooo% this much happy during Valentine`s Day [ a.k.a. Single Awareness Day ] . Starting from the fact that I got to be a student teacher during that day , that was already more than enough to make me jump for joy [ lmao ] . I taught Chemistry in the 3 - Pignatelli classroom [ a.k.a. my promdate`s classroom ] && in the 3 - Borgia classroom [ where Deanno`s && Donico`s promdates are ] . I had fun during the Chemistry sessions because I was with my co-teacher , Raymond Binoya [ third year classmate ] . We gave a 2oo item quiz to the class ! Weh ! [ It`s okay if we are bombarded with the word "sadists" . lol ]

I got to "teach" in my own classroom too ! My classmates && I just had our research for Physics in the I.T. Lab . I let them surf the net . Weh XD

The other thing that made me so happy was just a simple rose . It was just one , surely bought outside the gates of our school . What made it special was that Mr. Three gave it (: ♥

Promenade , You Say?
In just T - some hours , our batch is going to experience our second && last Prom . I agree with my buddy , I`m not that excited . I just want our periods to be shortened because of the practice XD . I was actually grateful for the Prom practice cuz it gave us a chance to "bond" with our promdates . Moreo
ver , my tablemate`s my good friend && classmate [ Miki ] .

1st Practice : Miki , Joeann , Jairah && I just kept on talking with each other . We didn`t talk to our promdates at all . [ lol ]
2nd Practice : Backstab session with our promdates ! `Twas fun though . First "bonding" session XD
3rd Practice : Ugh , the sunlight was trippin` on us . During the first part of the practice Our table [ 23o ] was moved to the front . We already have nicknames for each other :
Me = adik
Earl [ my promdate ] = emo
Miki [ my tablemate && classmate ] = mother nature
Ryan [ Miki`s promdate ] = Zac Efron
*only some people can understand why XD*

My promdate dared us three to stand while the practice was going on... So we did do that . It was kinda funny && embarrassing because some people were looking at us && we just kept on laughing . `Twas a "cute" bonding moment though XD

Prince [ Majoy`s promdate && Earl`s classmate ] kept on teasing me to Earl . IDK why @_@

Oh oh oh ! Go for the
REJESTER . Nyahahaha XD

I Didn`t Say Hate
Well well well . It was supposed to be a spear . Lol . Anyway , I`m not intending to aim any sharp-edged weapon of hate to
someone . But I DID consider that though . Then I thought I`d be so childish if I handled it in that way . So like NVM . I just hope that someone && I could still be friends though . I really have to talk [ heart-to-heart ? ] to that someone before we graduate ... *sigh*

Boards && Brooms For Fun
Flyff is LAHB . aNNic is LAHB . Macaroonie™ is LAHB . Spread the Flyff LAHB ! *bow* XD

Oooh , Numbers
I just found out yesterday that I passed the CSAT [ Yey for me ] . I am now officially legible to enroll as a student in the Ateneo de Davao Jacinto campus . What`s the course I am taking up , you ask ? Let`s just say I`m readying a lot of hankerchiefs because I`d be immersing my self in the world of Math && numbers . That is teh l33t [ XD ]

B.S. Whaaat ?
Ahm no , the meaning of B.S. in my update title is not Bachelor of Science . It`s BUSY SUMMER . I just realized that I`ll be hella busy this vacation season .

Imma....
• take up violin lessons again [ with Shobe Jemiel && Ahia Don ]
• practice driving [ 2oo8`s the year that I`ll finally get my Student`s Permit ! ^^ ]
• be in the shooting range with my bro [ kewl sport for a girl ]
• skimboard once more [ fave water sport ]
• be a DJ with Deanno [ I think ]

• have gig/s with my band [ I thoroughly hope ]
• help my friend with his business
• take a trip to the land of Hongkong [ Disneyland , here I come ! :9 ]
• take up a graphic web designing class [ hmm , still tentative ]
&& • devote my extra time to gaming . Waw . It`s really a B.S. XD

Adios To The Green [ ? ] Fields
Ugh . In two to three weeks , us Seniors will take the last 6 or 7 exams in our High School life . In two months [ ? ] , we will leave behind the green [ ? ] fields of our Alma Matter , Ateneo de Davao University . Honestly , I do not want to graduate yet . My bros say that that`s just a natural feeling . High School`s so fun-filled . I wouldn`t wanna trade this memory for anything else . [ Fudge , I`m getting emo O_O ] . I remember my 1 - Borgia days[ still FRESH XD ] .. 2 - Gonzaga [ Honor`s class ftw @_@ ] moments .. 3 - Canisius memories [ my MOST fun-filled year ] .. my time spent in 4 - Gonzaga . Awww .

But I can`t stop from April 5 from coming . So adios to the High School building I`ve stayed in for almost 4 years . I`ll still be a blue-blood though XD

Suspended For PDA ;]]
That`s not what you think it is . It`s just the name of my group of friends whom I hang out with most of the time . We are called PDA because always tease each other of doing PDA [ Public Display of Affection ] . Every girl has a guy "partner" in the group . We`re only 6 members but we have a lot of fun together . Everybody accepts every person in the group as who they are :D

To them : I`ll never forget FEBRUARY 15 , 2OO8 ♥
wahaha XD

Papa Said Play :D
Soooo ... My first idea of my Graduation gift didn`t pull through . It was a trip to Japan . Then my mom said that a trip to Japan is like a trip to a country in Europe . So NVM [ T_T ] . I had finally thought of an alternative Grad. gift , a Playstation Portable .

I am totally in love with PSP`s [ don`t mark me as weird though ] XD I mean , it`s like an iPod , with 1ox the power . You can play games , watch movies , listen to music , surf the internet or connect with other PSP users through WLAN . It`s pretty cool for me . && I`m just sorta kinda jealous of my bro who has a PSP [ XD ] .

Can You Keep A Secret ?
The song
Secret by The Pierces is currently my LSS [ Last Song Syndrome ] . This song was featured in Gossip Girl , 1oth episode *Hi , Society* . It was the song playing during the part when they were dancing the cotillion . I can`t find its full length song in imeem though . Imma upload it next time XD

Being Grown Up Isn`t Half As Fun As Growing Up
My all time favorite quote/lyric from the song
In This Diary by The Ataris . I sorta wanted this to be the graduation song of our batch but our grad. song will be a composition . I still love this song though :D



That`s all for my updates .
I`m just going to put two pictures that depict what`s going in on my life right now :

1st Picture :

Down , err Updates @_@

Finally !! I made a serious blog post [ or is it really ? ] . Oh well . I just want to share what are the current happenings in my so-called life XD


FAMILY FEUD. .&& THEN SOME .
It`s been proven already that in an ordinary household , conflicts can never be avoided . It`s somewhat like a protocol already @_@ Anyway. . .In the Martinez household , things are getting a bit better . But the "cold war" between my eldest bro && my dad is still raging . I don`t know what are the plans of my eldest bro right now . I think he`s gonna find a job. .For goodness sake , he`s already 24 years old && still , he hasn`t taken the board exam . Oh well -___-"

My mom && dad are getting along well though . It`s almost their silver anniversary this January . Yey ! But that means I have to dress up && stuff again . But oh well . I`d do it for them. . XD


IN SICKNESS && IN HEALTH .
I admit , there are friends of mine who are really sickly [ You know who you are >.< ] . She recently got checked up in the hospital && she recently discovered that she has a new 'disease' . She told me she wanted to die already cuz she can`t take the pain anymore. .But I told her not to let go , cuz WE`RE still here . As of now , she`s feeling better . I just realized that married couples are not the only ones who should look after each other through sickness && in health , FRIENDS SHOULD TOO (: *to that 'she': lahbyoo . keep on holding on :]*


I CAN`T BE THE VAMPIRE SLAYER. . .CUZ I AM THE VAMPIRE .
Ugh . For the past month , I`ve been experiencing more && more of my stupid insomnia . I usually sleep at 1 A.M. because of it :( I don`t want to take any medication . Errrrrr . My insomnia isn`t helping me at all . On school days , I usually become sleepy during Math period . Damn . I can`t afford to sleep during that period cuz I really need to make my Math grade a little higher . Stupid , stupid , stupid insomnia X(


I`M IN A CIRCUS. .A CLOWN JUGGLER .
Well , what my college friends told me is true : Senior life is busy , tiring && difficult . Nowadays , I`ve been having difficulty in balancing my time . Originally , I don`t have good time management && that just adds to my problems . I cram more && more these days . && it sucks . Errrrr :-/


BESTFRIENDS [ PSYCHOLOGISTS ? ] MEAN FRIENDS FOREVER .

My bestfriends are truly the BEST . They`ve never left me through my times of trouble / problems , especially now . They`re open to me about their problems too . To name a few of them : RACHEL LAWAN , TZAI SAUZA , CHA SANTOS , JEMIEL ELIO , MAUI HOMEZ [ confusion buddy . haha ] , LEAN ARCENA , RENDZ TAGALOG , SHEILA SON , MARC FORTES , ELLYSE VALDEVIESO , XUGARR CANENCIA , JAMES DEQUIñA , DONICO ESTANISLAO , KARLU CARIAGA , CARINA LEYSON , ANJEL NAPALA , MAIIKX ALCANTARA , RYAN LIZARDO , KEKA DE GUZMAN , JANUS MARTINEZ , CHIE MASIGA , AYANA GUALBERTO. .I hella love them ♥xx :)

TAKING ON. . . .SEVEN YEARS ERR , ONE YEAR .
Around August / September , I`ve been having doubts on what course I would take up in College . Damn !! I had already decided last year that I would take up Accountancy . But just my luck , my heart wants to take up Com.Sci. && Law too . So what the heck .

I took this survey thingy entitled "What Should You Major In?" This was the result:

Your Scholastic Strength Is Developing Ideas

You can take a spark of inspiration and turn it into a full fledged concept.
You are talented at brainstorming, visualizing, organizing, and independent thinking.

You should major in:

Natural sciences
Computer science
Creative writing
Math
Architecture
Journalism


Now , I`m even more confused of on what I would take up . && Graduation`s about 3 months away . FUDGE >.<


SWIRLS . SWIRLS . CONFUSING .
Aaaaaah . To make a long story short , he`s confusing me . I just don`t know what to do right now . He`s giving mixed signals . I`m confuuuuuuuuused , && I hate that feeling -___-" I don`t know anymore. .



So there ! Updates in my life XD Much on problems right ? Lol . Oh well .
GTG , gotta make an article for BK pah . Till next time . Weeeeeeee :]]
