Hm, so that was Joy’s last entry, huh? I suppose this’ll be mine too. *hears the rounds of applauses from the distance* You know, it doesn’t really feel like we’re going our separate ways. I guess school’s partly to blame because we haven’t had the time to absorb the thought fully. Bought some film a couple days ago, but we’ve only taken a couple of shots. That’s mostly b/c it’s just Peng, Joy, and I here. It would be nice to get in a few group shots, but I doubt we’ll have the time. And I never know when Paul is here, soo…. *Waves*

Peng and I went to Robinson’s last night for the midnight sale event. Basically, the mall stayed open ‘til midnight. OMG. There were a lot of people there (although it could have been so much worse), and we had one hell of a time getting a cab back. We bought shoes! Hehe. That’s all we got.

Hm, sounds like I’m just basically rambling here, but that’s a given, right? We’re suppose to ramble here. Yay. Anyway, got an incredibly good deal on an *Nsync CD on Thursday! It’s one of their first albums, the self-titled one with, *drum rolls*, “I Drive Myself Crazy.” It was used though, and for 50 pesos. -BUT- it was in near-perfect condition, hehe. And original, of course. I got it from one of the little org-sponsored sales at my school and it just caught my eye. When they told me the price, I just wanted to scream! So then I got it. That’s two down, two more to go! That was the one good thing that came out of that crappy week. Why was it crappy, you ask? I don’t know, it just was. Maybe b/c I didn’t see HIM again after the Monday afternoon *episode *(we sat next to each other without saying a word the whole time! I think I'm too proud kasi. He has to initiate the conversation! =d), or perhaps b/c it was the last full week of classes, or…or…I don’t know. Basta, it sucked.

So now, I’m supposedly working on a 20 page paper, and I have one page down so far, yehey! Peng is either studying, or admiring herself with Paul’s mirror, and Joy sounds stressed. Well, she IS stressed. Poor Joy. Take things one at a time, chica.

I think I’ve developed some sort of immunity to coffee. Just fixed myself some not too long ago, and I’m getting’ sleepy already. Yeah…I’ll just sleep now. Maybe wake up early tomorrow and continue my paper. Then catch up on my social science readings, study for French, and hm, can’t think of anything else. I know I have a lot more stuff I have to do for next week, just can’t think of the rest at the moment. Rest…that’s a good idea. Zzzzzzz……..

Hello!!! This is probably my FINAL chronicles entry as a tenant of 712. It’s like an era is ending… it’s oh so sad. Let’s all pause for a moment of silence because something special and sometimes wonderful thing is almost at its end. *pauses for moment of silence*

Anyway, Mel, Kat, and Paul are graduating! *claps hands* Woohoo… and then Peng and I are graduating next year while Jops graduates Masters! *gasp* But there, we’re all grown up now and we have to face the real world. Speaking of the real world, I had to go to Makati today for an interview for my Practicum. And do you know when they asked me to go there? Yesterday at 7pm is when they called!!! Talk about short notice. So of course I started freaking out when they called, but not because I was nervous about the interview, but because I had never been to Makati… EVER! How the hell am I supposed to go there now?!?! I end up calling all my friends asking them how to go to Makati and they all give me directions if I were to take a taxi or if I took an MRT. And of course I have never taken an MRT either so I wasn’t too keen on that idea. (Yes, I live a sheltered life) In the end, my friend Marc *waves to Marc* basically said in so many words that nothing is wrong with taking a taxi, it’s just expensive. The next problem was I didn’t have anyone to go with, all my friends were busy or they’d be overcut if they cut class, so in the end--- ANN so generously offered to go with me. Thanks ANN!

I was going to repay Ann by treating her to Sbarros at Megamall on our way back, but since she didn’t want to cut her 11:30 class, I treated her to breakfast at McDonalds. (Of course Ann was ripped off since McDonalds is so much cheaper, hehe) I woke up at the ungodly hour of 6, and then after I showered I woke Ann up. We left for Makati at 7, and fortunately there was no traffic and we got there at 7:30, but my interview wasn’t until 9:30, so I was way too early. (Blame it on my sense of my punctuality that I have to have since I grew up in the states.) The taxi fare was 130, of course I paid since Ann was just tagging along and really had no reason to be there, except for me. Isn’t she so SWEET!?!?! Many many thanks Ann-ie! :p Since we were early, we walked to McDonalds which was about a mile away, and ate breakfast there. When we there I tell Ann to ask me questions that the girl may ask during the interview, and OMG I start freaking out again because I don’t know how to answer those questions. Honestly now, what are you supposed to say when someone asks, “Why should we choose you over all the other applicants?” Am I supposed to be stuck up and basically say, “Because I’m the best,”(which I’m honestly not) or do I say, “The other applicants would be just as good as I am,” basically meaning that I’m no better than anyone else and that if I were her, I wouldn’t choose me?!?! So there, but in the end it all worked out. Her questions were easy to answer and we just chit-chatted. By the way- I think I got the job!!!! YAY!!! But the hours are like from 9-7! It’s gonna be so hectic!

I have to go and study for my stat exam tomorrow! Adios!

Burned, stressed, harrassed, where does one start? Kill, destroy, rage.... Hehe, hell month. Let's see, term ends in a couple weeks and I feel incredibly overwhelmed. All of us really have been burned the past couple weeks. Actually, my class workload by itself wasn't too bad. It was all the crap I've been through as an applicant for the French club that's been hell. Joining orgs (organizations, aka clubs) at my school is like joining a sorority; they make you do all sorts of things for the application process, aka initiation (hehe, well maybe it's not as bad, I wouldn't know really) I suppose it wasn't as bad as other orgs' app processes, but I didn't expect to do what was beyond my ability....Like, I sang (sad, but true. lots of jaw-dropping here..as in, "how can anyone sing so terribly?!?!"), danced (imagine a chicken running around with its head chopped off. and I have the limbs of a robot!), and made a total ass out of myself the other day(like I hadn't already with my singin' and dancin'). That's what they look for, I guess, to see how desperate you are to join their org. I dressed up as Britney Spears, a la Slave 4 u mode (the one with the beige top), last Friday for the final interview thing. I danced, got bossed around and insulted (hehe), etc. Actually, it was fun dressing up as BS and pretending to be her. Too bad they didn't make me sing like her. I would've done her justice =P I should've taken pictures of me in my get-up! I meant to, actually, but I was just rushing and stressed that day, so I wasn't able to stop and get film. Sayang! It would've been nice to remember how all us applicants looked in our little costumes (2 were Madonna. others: the Ginger spice chick, sisqo, and missy elliot. But I think I got the worst of them all. We all had to draw slips of paper from a bowl a couple weeks ago that had names of what singer we had to dress up like and in what specific music video. I kept praying that I wouldn't get her, but low and behold, I did.), I worked hard on my costume too! I had made a wig out of yellow yarn that ended up making me look like a cabbage patch doll instead. I even added a few strands of a lighter yellow color to emulate that highlight effect. Oh well. I didn't want to shell out 1500 pesos ($30) for a real wig that I'd only wear once. But for some odd reason, no one made fun of my "hair" =P Just my protruding jelly-roll (o.O), fake boobs (they made me look sexy!), and others that I can't think of at the moment.

Alrighty. Paul and Mel ended class around a week ago, and Kat's last day is the same as us non-graduating students, since we go to the same school and all, and for some reason, they don't let seniors out early. Paul comes back every now and then, 'cause she misses us, so she let's us believe =P Mel is just elusive, as she's always been (*waves*). Or wait, I've just been told she's in Davao (southern region of the country. We're in the northern part). So I guess this site is coming to an end, since, again, we're all moving out at the end of this month =(. Paul's going to pursue law, Kat's moving onto med school, and Mel is leaving the country to work I suppose. Jops, Peng, and Joy are moving in together, and little ol' me will probably take the unit right a floor below theirs, hehe.

On a lighter note, saw a couple movies today: A Beautiful Mind and 13 Ghosts. 13 Ghosts was terrible and I just wanted to leave b/c it was horribly gory (hehe, the friend I was with thought I kept saying "corny" all the while), but I didn't like the good sport I am. Sat through the end. Most of the acting was terrrrrrrrrible (said with a french accent: teh-rrrrri-bluh.) A Beautiful Mind was..okay, I guess. I liked it, I mean. Kind of frustrating at times, to watch, but it was..hm, I want to say heart-warming, but it wasn't quite that. It was touching, there you go.

So I guess that pretty much sums up my boring ol' life the past couple of months. Joy just looked over my shoulder and remarked how incredibly long this entry is. Oh well. It's more of a note to myself, if anything. Reflecting, reminiscing, etc. What else..oh and damn it, Ann! Lookie here, you've gotten yourself a little crush, hehe. I feel like I'm in middle school again. Who uses the word "crush" at my age to begin with?? Mee! I don't know, it could be a temporary thing. I really don't know the dude beyond his full name, but he did ...something (kissed my ear, heh. trivial....) and all of sudden, I'm attracted to him. I suppose I've been somewhat attracted from the get-go, but never really acknowledged it 'til that point. Why am I typing this anyways, this is incredibly embarrassing! I don't know. aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! I suppose I've been horrified at the idea of a relationship b/c of how vulnerable it can make you. I don't need that now. But you can't help but feel like, blah. I'm getting ahead of myself. I better end this now. Goodnight! =*

Hello! I’m back! I know our regular visitors have missed me, I see you out there, all TWO of you! :p Aren’t you glad that Ann and I regularly update our lives? heh As Ann said, we have been busy, or more of we’ve been lazy.

Anyway, first and foremost I must give my buddy (you know who you are) a special greeting, Happy Birthday! I hope you have the best birthday ever and I’m so sorry I can’t be there. You know I’d want to go to Las Vegas with you, I mean, Vegas is like a home away from home for me. I know the strip like the palm of my hand. We could probably even receive the special treatment if we were with my dad. We could stay at the penthouse of Caesars Palace! sigh Could you imagine us setting Vegas on fire? Or more of, you setting Vegas on fire and I’d just tag along since I’m not 21 yet, and I’d probably be arrested since I’m under age and all. But, yeah, have a fabulous birthday! And don’t stress out too much about school and whatever else, just enjoy life. J Long live Mashari!!! heh

I just watched Lord of the Rings today, after Paul’s persistence. It was very- good! But I had one major problem with it- Elijah Wood! Elijah Wood was my very first Hollywood crush, I still remember the first time I saw him in Radio Flyer, and then Forever Young, and then The Good Son with Macaulay Culkin. (I know I royally screwed up the Culkin guys name, but anyway, my friends all loved him and thought he was just the cutest thing, while I liked Elijah. I even argued that Elijah would last longer in Hollywood, and they just laughed in my face! Who’s laughing now?!?! HAHAHAHA) So, I just had a hard time accepting the fact that people are following my Elijah and trying to kill him! It kind of made me want to stand up and say, “You must kill me before you kill him!” Well, not really, but when Elijah hurts I hurt. Hehe Oh, and did any of you notice how many times they did a close-up on Elijah’s palm? If I were some serial killer or bank robber or Macaulay Culkin or something, I’d buy the movie and pause it every time there was a close-up of his palm and then I’d copy the lines on his hand! Yup yup! And then, I’d commit some crime or something and leave prints everywhere and it would be Elijah who gets blamed for it! Imagine, Macaulay Culkin so angry that he’d do that so Elijah Wood’s career goes down the drain and his career would rise again from the ashes. Dramatic huh? Or more of psychotic? heh, I have a wild imagination! Teehee

By the way, before I go, did any of you how Ann’s been putting 2001 on her chronicle updates for 2002. hehe Weirdo... :p

Dum de dum. We've been so busy/lazy these few weeks to update the site. Some of you have noticed it too (okay okay, only one person has said anything..you know who you are *waves*). Anyway, I've been doing pretty well this semester as far as studying goes. I still procrastinate, but who doesn't?? It's not as bad as before though; I actually hit the books before 7pm! So, for the past couple of weeks, I'd like to thank Starbucks for serving decent coffee to study on or whatnot (*casually glances at Doy*). And Rustan's for selling Lipton's in boxes, the people who make the honey in bear-shaped containers(!), and uhm, the good ol' people at Snapple and Sola (go raspberry tea!) for providing my school with an ample supply of, well, tea. And last, but certainly not least, Domino's for providing the tenants of unit 712 with great pizza and for delivering in 30 minutes or less. Hehe. Ugh, I have a major test this Friday that I should be studying for, by the way, but it's er, too late now(1am).

Peng, Jops, and Joy have found a nice little place to move into in a couple of months (we're gonna be evicted, remember?). Anyhoo, it's the cutest place, complete with the country-style wallpaper and lotsa shelves! Notice how I didn't include "I" in the names because... ::drum rolls:: .. I'm not joining them since apparently, I'm moving with a cousin, blah (I was gonna join them, but with my cousin tagging along, we'd be really tight for space.). Well, I'm hoping cousin and I get a unit in the same building as Peng, Jops, and Joy, so if anything, I could come down, or go up, and bug 'em alllll day! Hehe. Or do the classic, "Hey neighbor, can I borrow some sugar?" Fun stuff.

Well, kiddos, got to go catch some beauty sleep (hehe, and what beauties we look at the moment! Doy and I decided to put our hair up in pigtails tonight. Doy braided hers though, and I only put up the sides of my hair. She'll probably kill me when she finds out that I wrote about this on here though. Haha. "We can't let everyone know the degree of our weirdness!" Paul went, when she saw us, "oh-key!" ). Night-night.

5-6 weeks til my girls (Paul, Kat, and Mel) graduate! So soon, too soon. Anyway, nothing much going on here besides the usual workload. We're being "evicted" in March because the admin is selling our unit, so Unit 712 will no longer be ours come that time. Jops, Joy, Peng, and I are currently looking for a place nearby, same building perhaps, if it can be arranged. It's bittersweet…in the sense that we'll have our own ground rules when we have our own place, and we get to furnish it any way we want =D (sweet!), but without Paul, Kat, and Mel around (bitter). Anyahoo, the deal with our place is basically, the condo furnished a unit with bunkbeds in the rooms (2 bedrooms, 4 bunks), and tables and lockers (8) in the living room, and offered this setting specifically for students (girls) in the area, and they also put down specific rules (no curfew though, but stuff like, no guys allowed, etc. The lobby guards make sure of that too, hehe. It's a conservative country, eh.). The place was still brand new when they did this (ie. few buyers), so they probably got more offers to buy up units over the years hence the reason they're letting us go. Anyway, we don't have any couches (a bummer, believe me) because the tables and lockers take up like, 80% of the "living room," so with only around 4 of us, we should be able to squeeze in one or two =P If we can afford one, that is. Hehe.

Alrighty. Watched Spy Game last night. Didn't like it too much, since I got real confused with the whole plot. Partly b/c we got there a tad late, and partly b/c I wasn't paying attention when we first got there b/c I was texting my cousin, heh. And also partly b/c the friend I was with tried to explain it to me afterwards and confused me even more (*waves*). Well, it didn't seem too interesting anyway. Watched Gladiator for the first time last weekend, and I was expecting a lot from it b/c of all the raves (friends, critics, awards, etc.) I've been hearing. It was good, but not THAT good. Maybe it's just me? Saw On the Line with Joy last week, hehe. We just watched it for *Nsync. Anyway, it was terribly predictable, but if ever, watch it for the clip at the end. It's so funny. Well, that is, if you're an *Nsync fan it will be. And what other reason would anyone watch it for, right??

The phone just rang and guess who it was for? JOPS! It's always for her! =P Paul is studying, Mel's in the kitchen, and everyone else is out. I guess I'll sleep or something. I should study, but I know I won't be able to right this minute….zzz….

Well, nine more days 'til Christmas/Pasko/Noel/Navidad, and I've gotten most of my shopping done finally. I've gotten most of the kids' presents out of way, and I gotta tell ya, shopping for kids is the funnest thing! Going through row after row of toys waiting to be treasured and/or broken. Older people are so hard to shop for =/

Tomorrow is Ramadan and the president declared it a national holiday even though like, only 2% of the population in this country are Muslim. Well, I shouldn't be complaining, we get tomorrow off for school. yay. I remember this time last year, I felt incredibly overwhelmed by tests/papers/etc. right before break, but this year, it's the total opposite. It makes me feel kind of guilty, to tell you the truth, that while I'm in a total state of relaxation, everybody else is going through the usual unnerving last-few-days-before-break trip. Case in point, Paul (*waves*).

I just burned a buncha Christmas songs (including 2 *nsync xmas songs =) and I'm listening to it now on Doy's CD player. Christmas songs are so heartwarming. I guess b/c of all the fond memories attached with songs, like, "All I want for Christmas are my two front teeth.." => reminds me of my second-grade class, hehe. We had to learn the song for Music.

*waves to Myra* Hope you had a good flight!

There's so much going on in the dorm recently. Some of us have exams, others have papers, while others have all those things. Oh well, as my brother always says, "That's life in the fast lane!" (Whatever that means) And then there are those of us, who have been busy due to extra-curricular activities. (I'll just leave it at that)

Paul and I went downstairs to order sago at Tapa King, but they were closed. It's not even 11:30 and they're closed already, there was a time when they'd be open till 1am! Those days are gone now. It's Kat's fault, she was eating sago and then I got a craving for it. What can I say, I'm easily influenced when it comes to food. Jops is typing away at her computer, Ann's in the bathroom trying to save her hair or it could be her hairbrush, I'm not sure which. :p Peng's gone, so is Mel. (Note to the readers: Ann just came out of the bathroom, she has a startling revelation- her hair is falling out! She's going bald I tell you! She's really a 60 year old trapped in a 20 year old body!)

Christmas is just around the corner, I haven't even gone shopping yet. Well, except for this one present for a friend, but that present just eliminates one person, so now my Christmas List has dwindled down to a few dozen or so people.

Oh, I have a joke that came from the package of my oatmeal. What's the difference between a treasure chest and a refrigerator?
Give up?
Well, one holds GOLD, the other holds COLD!!! HAHAHA… Laugh damn you! (I'm taking note of all those not laughing! Hmph…)

I should get back to studying statistics… oh what a wonderful world I live in, sometimes I study, sometimes I'm being studied. Go figure! 121001-> learn it, live it, love it!!!

Well, hewo there. We've just been busy, busy, busy, I guess, hence the slow updates. We have plans, baby, BIG plans for this site! We're going to put up a "guy of the month" section up (nyek, nyek), among other weird stuff going on. Yes, we'll throw in more stuff to entertain our wide audience. And we mean all four of you out there =x. No, but really, we like to consider our site "exclusive," since it's mainly for our friends' viewing pleasure. Consider yourselves lucky.

Okay, I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. Just ignore everything I've said up to this point. Alrighty, it's been a very busy past couple of weeks. Joy and I were able to go running one Tuesday morning and that was it. Afterwards, it's was either a paper, exam, or just plain lack of discipline in waking up, that got in the way. And then Joy figures, she shouldn't run on Mon, Wed, and Fri because of her tight scheduling, and I really shouldn't run on Tues and Friday because of the fact I have Basketball PE on those days and that's tiring enough as it is. So that leaves Thursdays free for running. That's one jogging day a week, chumps. Oh well.

So last Friday, Nov. 30, Joy and I (damn, I think we spend waay too much time together) went to a South Border concert (a pinoy pop band). It was rather boring, but interesting at the same time since it was my first *real* concert. Imagine that. I recall Britney Spears going to my city once but I didn't attend (imagine that...). I would really like to go to an Nsync concert though =) Hm, I really don't get out much I guess. We took some pics of the SB concert and we'll post them as soon as we get them developed.

As of right now, I'm scanning something that Joy had left behind. She *had* to go home but accidently left some studying material for her Monday exam. So, she's having me scan them for her and send them by email. Aren't I just the sweetest person? *snickers* (<== what's with all the damn expressions?! I'm acting weirder than usual tonight, I guess. I think it was that Frap I had a few hours ago, hehe.)

Let's see. Oh, I just LOVE my classes this sem! I have a class now that sort of talks about Filipino society, so yay! =) My Spanish class is so tiring though since our prof is so demanding (eg. readings, exercises, daily quizzes, etc.). I guess that's the way to go when teaching foreign languages. Although I feel some of my classmates have the edge since some of it is similar to Filipino (which I'm still not fluent at btw. I really need to start practicing again, but Peng and them always make fun of my accent ~.~ So mean.)

I finally saw the Harry Potter movie. It was okay, I guess. When I watched it the first time, on a pirated VCD, I was really disappointed since I thought they cut out many scenes. Turns out, the person who was taping the thing probably ran out of battery or something. Anyhoo, the second time when I watched it at the theatre, it was like, "oh, there it is," so my opinion of it has gotten better. The Quidditch scenes were really nice and I absolutely love the actor playing Ron (the red-head). He played his character real well. The guy playing the title role, Harry Potter, could have used a few pointers in acting, but I guess we'll see improvement on his part as they film the rest of the series.

Whoa, I'm getting carried away now with my typin'. This will be my last paragraph for tonight, I promise. Oooh, Christmas is just around the corner now! And I haven't even started shopping for gifts yet! I used to be real good at that, and I'd be done by now, but dammit. College gets in the way of life, I'm telling you. I guess I'll start shopping next weekend or something. Weekdays are out of the question. *sighs* Okay, it's 2am, and I'm sleepy. Joy, you better appreciate what I doing for ya! I'd like to say a dinner would be a fine way of showing that ^.^ Or hey, do my Spanish paper instead! Wee-hee!

I still can't get over the fact that *my* cellphone is truly, truly gone. It was a great 7 months, wasn't it? I mean, Joy even said right after I had texted her it had been stolen(on my cousin's phone, which ironically, I'd lose a week later) and she goes, "aw, that phone was so you!" Do cellphones represent who we are as people? Maybe to an extent and it would depend on the person's area, but I guess I'd have to agree that since my phone (Siemens) wasn't as popular as say, Nokias, people did identify me with that phone. Oh well. Got a new one, finally, last week. I'm still getting used to it, but I think I'm turning into a totally apprehensive person about it getting snatched, since I hardly bring it with me anywhere. Or if I do, I keep it hidden.

*sighs* Well, I'm not as excited about the Harry Potter movie as I was weeks before. I haven't seen it yet, either. I admit I'm a big Harry Potter fan (really though, the books are good reading material), so I was anxiously anticipating the arrival of the movie. I even downloaded the trailer awhile back for it. Anyway, you know how it is when they turn books into movies; the readers end up getting disappointed. This just dawned on me less than a week ago, shorty before it was released, which is why I haven't gone to see it. Jops just came back five minutes ago from watching it as of this writing, and even she says it's not as good as the book. Ha! Well, I bought a HP lunch box the other day ^.^ It was a steal at 199pesos ($4). hee hee

Anyahoo, Joy and I made a resolution towards the end of last sem to go jogging every morning around the 'hood. She's been two weeks into school and I, one. And yet, we still haven't been successful. It's hard as hell waking up at 5 am, you know??? I mean, we have to, since that's the only free time we really have, plus it's more practical that way with less traffic and all. We're trying again tomorrow, so y'all hope against hope that we're able to get up.

Oh yeah, one last thing, backing up what Joy said below about "The Others." Yall HAVE to watch it! Well, I hear some people didn't like it though :shrugs: It's like, the freakiest movie with the most thought-provoking ending. It's similar to the Sixth Sense, but personally, this interpretation of the same concept was SO MUCH BETTER. Sixth Sense reminded me of one those "Are You Scared of the Dark?" episodes. Yeah-yeah, I watch, er, used to watch Nickelodeon. Anyway, I'm still thinking about the movie, actually. Peng and Paul are watching it at this moment on Joy's computer (it's a pirated copy *gasps* but we plan on watching it at the movies anyway.) I'm about to go join them as soon as I finish this. Which is...RIGHT NOW!

First things first, I'd like to wish all my friends and relatives in the States a Happy Thanksgiving!!! Gobble-gobble…

Yesterday, Ann and I went to watch Serendipity at Galleria. I think I have a subconscious crush on John Cusack since his Con-Air days. That's when I first took notice of him. The movie was- uhm- entertaining, but it wasn't really good. It's a good date-flick though. What I really wanted to watch was Harry Potter. And almost everybody who's anybody was going to watch the film that day, which is okay, but I have a slight case of claustrophobia and I wouldn't be able to take it in a really crowded movie theater. It would make me really nervous and I'd probably go searching for the nearest exit. Or I'd yell, "SUNOG" so that everyone would run to the nearest exit and I'd have the theater to myself. :p Or maybe I could use Ann's favorite tagalog phrase, "LAYAS!"

OMG! I have a recommendation for a movie, "The Others" with Nicole Kidman produced by her ex- who is also my ex, Tom Cruise! :p It's not scary, scary, it's more creepy- it's a creepy movie with an excellent storyline. AND, I liked it so much more than Sixth Sense, but then again, I didn't think too highly of Sixth Sense. Maybe, it's because Haley Joel Osment (?) is just too articulate to actually be only eleven years old. Hell, I'm 20 and I still act like a kid! Like today, I was in the library, and I skipped towards a chair. Of course, I only took one skip, but the point is- I skipped! People my age should NOT skip. Skipping past the age of 15 is bad, very bad, and very uncool!

It's November and I can smell Christmas looming in the air. Jops is on the phone flirting away with one of her boy-toys. Hehe :p It's just Paul, Ann, Jops, and I at the dorm, Mel went out… AGAIN, so what else is new? I don't know what to write, I'm supposed to be covering my books, but Jops' computer is seated conveniently on my chair, therefore I don't have a chair to sit in. So, remember people, in life, computers get priority over people in the usage of chairs. Speaking of computers, we watched Scary Movie on my computer aka "Joy's TV." The screen is HUGE, I almost dropped the screen when I tried to carry it, but good old Jops carried it to the desk for me. :p Yesterday, Paul, Ann, and I went to Galleria. We ate mussels with Parmesan cheese at Dulcinea. Ann was looking for "feminine" shoes, but as every girl knows when buying shoes you need to think of an outfit that goes with those shoes. And if you don't have an outfit for those shoes, then you better haul your ass to other stores to find an outfit for those shoes. It's a big hassle, and in the end, Ann didn't end up buying shoes. BUT, we did drink a pitcher of fruit shake. The menu said the pitcher was good for four people, in my opinion it's good for like six people. My bladder was so full when we forced ourselves to finish the pitcher because "sayang," di ba? Oh, Jops made a new lay out for our website. Hehe hopefully it will be uploaded soon. If it's already uploaded already while your reading this, the new layout is nice, right? J Props to Jops our Ms.Know-it-all on computer info. :p And if it isn't uploaded yet, then it's because Jops is still on the phone- FLIRT!!! Hehe

Coo', first entry of the semester. Semester break sucked big. I lost two friggin' cellphones in a timespan of 2 weeks! Actually, it's a day short of 2 weeks. WTF is that? Oh well. Got my grades today, and to say the least, I'm very pleased ^.^ Joy's on the phone chatting away and Jops is on her computer testing out her mad computer skillz, I guess. Haven't seen Peng or Kat yet, since we three don't start second semester yet 'til next week. I'm just staying in the dorm/condo for registration. Oh what to do when you don't have to worry about reading lists and lectures! Nothing. It's what I do best anyway!
