I'm 16 and I'm now a college freshie. Here are 5 random facts about me:
♥I love chocolates. Twix is my favorite.
♥ I'm a fangirl and I'm team Jacob
♥ I used to hate math but I'm sort of starting to like it
♥ Orange is my favorite color
♥ The orange car shown in MI 3 which is Lambhorgini Gallardo 2006 version is my dream car.
Anyhoo I'm posting it here since I don't know how to upload wall photos on facebook then tag people, and I don't have the time nor the patience to ask people how to do that. So here's my pretty second sem sched :) I also posted this on plurk. Hihi. The only major traveling that I will do is from Math building to Palma Hall. And since there is no break/ traveling time alotted, I will have to ride tokis every wednesday and friday. The walk from CHK to Pav 1 is also long but I have a 30-minute break :)
500 days of summer

This is my favorite movie of the year, so far.
The movie is a bittersweet love story, about a man who believes that "he'd never truly be happy until the day he met the one" and a woman who believes that true love is just as unreal as Santa Claus. The guy falls head over heels for the girl, Summer, even though she clearly stated that she didn't want a serious relationship, hell not even a relationship if you ask me because she keeps on calling Tom, the guy, as a "friend" or "best friend". Of course, it is foresee-able that Tom ends up brokenhearted, and at the end Summer falls in love - with another man, and she gets married.
Throughout the movie, I felt like I was in Tom's shoes, even though I have never really loved at all (romantically). I loved the story because it was so real, because in real life, there are significantly more love stories that end unhappily. And yet that doesn't mean that those stories have any less love than those with "happy endings". In real life, we get brokenhearted a thousand times before we finally meet the "one", or maybe we don't. But still, we fall in love, no matter what our reasons are.
I love that it was the guy who was brokenhearted- the one who believed in true love. Because finally, the hopeless romantic guys, who actually exist, are represented in movies. I love that because Tom was so depressed because of Summer, he quit his job and finally pursued his dream of becoming an architect. I love that even though Tom was pretty much messed up, the ending was hopeful. I'd like to believe that Tom did get over Summer, even though we are not sure whether Autumn is the "one".
And my god, I loved the dialogues. Here are my two most favorite scenes: Summer: You weren't wrong, Tom (about true love). You were just wrong about me. *** Summer (on telling Tom when she finally realized that she fell in love with this other man): I woke up one morning and I just knew it. Tom: Knew what? Summer: What I was never sure of with you.
The latter killed me. I swear, Joseph Gordon Levitt's face had pain sprawled all over it when Summer said "what I was never sure of with you". I almost wanted to kill Summer then, but later I realized that she was just being sincere, as she always has been with Tom. The words were painful but they contained nothing but the truth. And I think Tom would still not hate Summer even for those words.
And of course, I love the music. The soundtrack is just as awesome as the movie. The whole movie could be told through the songs. Some of my favorites are "She's got you High", "Vagabond", "You make my dreams", "Hero", and "Please please please let me get what I want", and "There is a light that never goes out".
This movie will forever change my views on love and destiny. Watch it.

Finally SEM BREAK KO na talaga. Dapat last last wed pa ang start kaso may mga exams pa at papers na pahabol. Tapos ko na lahat ng dapat tapusin at pre-enlistment na lang ang pinoproblema ko dahil sobrang hirap makakuha ng MST na subject. Alam niyo ung tipong 1 na lang ung slot tapos 135 ung demand? Ganun katindi. Sobrang liit talaga ng probability na makakuha ng MST (Math, Science and Technology).
Anyway, kelangan kong sulitin ang sem break na to. Kaya syempre planado na ako. Bakit pag schoolwork di ako makapagplano? HAHAHA. So anyway eto ang mga gagawin ko: - basahin ang By the River Piedra I sat Down and Wept - magovernight kela Air (kung pwede :>) - panoorin ang Season 2 ng Friends at 1/4 ng Season 3 nito - Glee! xempre kahit may pasok nanonood ako niyan :> - gossip girl. although mejo nabobore ako sa episodes lately. di ko masyadong gusto yung story - finish the three short stories I wrote. nung days kasi na todo cramming ako, yung tipong may 6-page paper due tomorrow at may finals tomorrow, naging stressbuster ko ung pagimbento ng story (hehehe). Wala lang ang saya kasi kapag andami mong iniimagine. Hahaha favorite part ko pag yung dialogues. Anyway di ko sila natapos kasi 1 hour lang yung rest ko nung days na yun kaya 1 hour lang akong nagsusulat dun sa eng10 filler ko (kasi naman walang notes :D Sayang)
At syempre may plano rin akong dapat gawin bago matapos ang sem break na para naman sa school. Yun ay: - bumili ng bagong binder - humiram ng calculus book at subukang aralin ito *hihi mukhang di ko talaga magagawa to* - bumili ng bagong math notebook - haircut! hahaha. pero ayoko na short :D
Kanina pala fam day tapos syempre kasama ko sila Air. Ewan ko ba pero di ako masyadong nagenjoy. NAPAGOD LANG. Siguro dahil sa init ng araw at dahil may dala silang boylets :(( Di ko tuloy nasolo si Alyssa hahaha! Tapos natry ko din ung merry mix up tsaka dolphin coaster. Mas matino na yung rides ngayon :D Tapos nakakainis si Jenn, pinaalala niyang malapit na ang November. GRRR wag muna. please lang sana huminto ang oras :((

Submitting a paper on time is like an action movie. You work against the clock as your mind struggles to select the right words and arrange them accordingly. You search your mind hurriedly for any new, bright, substantial ideas that might be useful just so you could fill up the remaining pages to hit the page quota.
But before the action, there's always that boring part where everything seems to be going smoothly. You had 4 days to start revising the paper, 4 days to read and reread the paper to analyze where you went wrong and which sentences needed to be restated and which paragraphs do you need to add more substance, more coherence, stronger transitions. And what? You spent those four days playing plants vs zombies, watching Glee, GG Season 3, and Friends Episode. You procrastinated. And you waited, and you whined, and you wasted all your time until there was barely any time left for you to finish what has to be done.
You crammed. And you barely made it. And you weren't able to make that kick-ass conclusion that you've been thinking dreaming of for several days now. You e-mailed the barely final draft-material paper at 11:58 pm because you didn't want to submit late.
You became arrogant just because of that stupid grade of your first paper. You became stubborn. And now you deserve to fail.
300th post!

We had our Math 17 Finals yesterday and I am feeling really emo. Math 17 consumed 40% of my 1st sem in college and of all the subjects that I had, I spent (I think) the most time trying to deal with it.
It was more than painful to take the exams for which you have spent so much time and effort (note-taking tested my patience VERY much) and it was even more painful when you are faced with a bloody paper of below average scores.
Math 17 is depressing, indeed and I can never understand how I got through it (though we still don't have our grades and I don't know IF I PASSED). It's the hardest Math that I've ever encountered, maybe because it is 4 years of high school math compressed into 1 hour and 15 minutes everyday + polars and piecewise functions (because we never tackled those).
So long, Math 17. Goodbye. I hope that I won't meet you again next sem. And goodbye too to my noisy, funny, and genius blockmates. Of course, I'll encounter some of you again next sem :D
LEGEN...wait for it....DARY!

posting an entry at 1 am isn't exactly the best idea, or more appropriately, it isn't the right thing. I am so bangag right now and I still have to do a reaction paper, arrange photos and make a powerpoint, remember to print a print ad for english 10, and also print some stuff for marketing (and also remember to call the companies tomorrow)
Tonight was one of those rare nights in UP that I actually cram and have tons of stuff to do. Usually, I'm either sleeping late because of rereading novels or because I'm watching Friends on the Internet (or maybe koreanovelas). UP life, so far, has been a breeze compared to my life back in STC. I only have to worry about my exams and the occasional homeworks.
And yet I am cramming here. *Sigh* But I missed this. Hell yeah I missed CRAMMING, but cramming in UP isn't as enjoyable as how it was in STC.
So yeah bye. Gotta finish those stuff. And also finish watching GG :P
The only major traveling that I will do is from Math building to Palma Hall. And since there is no break/ traveling time alotted, I will have to ride tokis every wednesday and friday. The walk from CHK to Pav 1 is also long but I have a 30-minute break :)
