 Words to describe me:
 loves Math, hates veggies, dreamer, lazy,
 chat addict, struggling web designer,
 loves art, in touch with nature, keeps
 grudges (hehe), hates reading and
 writing

 What on-line tests say about me:
 [www.emode.com]

 A. Ultimate IQ Test

 Intellectual Type: Visual Mathematician
 Like Albert Einstein, you have a strong
 ability to process visual-spatial and
 mathematical information. These skills
 combined with your strengths in logic
 are what make you a visual 
 mathematician. 

 B. Ultimate EQ Test

 Based on your impressive score across
 the board, we can tell that you not only
 tend to be really in tune with others, but
 you're also pretty darn good at keeping
 the right perspective on life. Sure, it's
 sometimes hard to juggle everything that
 goes into your relationships with friends
 and family, but most of the time you're a
 star when it comes to balancing your
 emotional needs with everyone else's.

 As you know, emotions are complicated
 things. Luckily, you also know that while
 it's important to be a good friend and
 lover to others, it's essential to see the
 bigger picture and take care of yourself,
 too. But we know it's hard to keep the
 scales balanced all the time. If you need
 help, just remember this: Offering
 someone a shoulder to cry on is great;
 worrying yourself into a tizzy every time
 someone you care about hits a rough
 patch isn't. For one thing, it's exhausting!
 If you wear yourself out fretting about
 other people, you won't have any time
 left for yourself. And we all have the
 right to treat ourselves right and be
 selfish with our feelings now and then.
 The road to emotional health and well-
 being can be bumpy, but if you make it
 a point to strive for balance and move at
 a relatively even pace, the bumps won't
 be so bad. From what we can tell, 
 you've got a map to a pretty smooth
 route - so keep up the good work!

   day but u know dey'l alwys b der, 2m
   d nxt day, n d day til 4ever.

TO SHARE: It's been a while since i last went on-line. and i guess, i missed a lot of blogging.. hehe.. anyway, got the results of dlsu and ateneo already. i only passed dlsu.. with comsci as my course.. i've been very busy in school. that's how life is when you're graduating. we had our defense for the investigatory project. luckily, it turned out so well that the panelists didn't ask questions anymore.  what else? uhh.. we had this book parade last monday and our class won as the best group. we deoicted the Iliad, particlarly the Trojan War. We had the 12 great gods of Olympus and the greek and trojan soldiers. what amazed everyone was our "trojan horse" about 7 feet high and 2.25 meters long. amazed, huh!? i'm scanning pics of the event and i'm gonna post it here soon...

TO SHARE: I really find this day boring. stayed up late until 3:15 a.m. to chat and customize the plug-ins of my webpage. I now have a hit counter from DarkCounter, my guest book from Getstring, and a redirection URL from www.has.it

I just opened my EdsaMail and received an interesting mail from someone. Let me share you the lines...

"WHAT MATURITY HAS TAUGHT ME"

I've learned that...

You cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.

No matter how much I care, some people are just assholes.

You can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. after that, you'd better have a big crank or huge boobs.
 

You should not compare yourself to others - they are more screwed up than you think.

You can keep vomiting long after you think you're finished.

Regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades,. and there had better be a lot of money to take its place.

The people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away.
 

So, there you have it. A sort of guideline for the new year, i guess. (hehe) So, gotta be logging out now. i got classes already tom! til then! ciao! *mwah!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 
TO SHARE: got nothing to say. hope to start the year right!

TO SHARE: Finally! the new lay-out for my site... at long last, this is already done. only a few hours left and we say goodbye again to the year that passed. personally, i really am thankful for this year, which brought a lot of changes in me as a person.

December 27, 2001 +11:52 p.m.

PERSONALS: I really love a song and i find myself listening to it 5 times before going to sleep.. i can't figure out why.. the sudden blast of emotions perhaps before christmas day..? ehh, don't know with me.. anyways, let me share with you the lyrics..

 "SAD TO BELONG"

 I met you on a springtime day
 You were minding your life
 and i was minding mine too..
 But lady when you looked my way
 i had a strange sensation and
 darling that's when i knew...

 ** That it's sad to belong to someone else
 when the right one comes along
 Yes it's sad to belong to someone else
 when the right one comes along

 Oh i wake up in the night
 and i reach beside me hoping you will be there
 But instead i found someone
 Who believed in me
 When i said i'd always care

 ** Oh is sad to belong to someone else
 when the right one comes along
 Yes its sad to belong to someone else
 when the right one comes along

 so i lived my life in the dreamworld
 for the rest of my days
 just you and me
 walking hand in hand in a wishful memory
 oh i guess that's all that it would ever be

 i wish i had a time machine
 i could make myself go back until
 the day i was born
 and i would live my life again
 and rearrange it so that i'll be yours from now on..

 ** Oh is sad to belong to someone else
 when the right one comes along
 Yes its sad to belong to someone else
 when the right one comes along

TO SHARE: Just got back from a tiring experience at enchanted kingdom. I was with several cousins and aunts and uncles during the day. We left as early as 8:45 a.m. and arrived there 15 minutes before the opening of the park. We all got wet at the rio grande. we tried it for 3 times, i think. and to feel the splash of water since the suns rays were actively radiating UV rays this morning, we rode the log jam right after rio grande.. hehe. i was sooo wet all the way from shirt to undies to pants to shoes.. and due to some scientific principles and einstein-like thinking, i hurriedly ran to the flying fiesta. what's in my mind during that time is that it
works like a dryer since it spins around for a
couple of times and that would let air dry my
clothes and myself as well. i really did enjoyed the day. i even tried the space shuttle twice. i felt like my brains gone after riding it. i dunno, but i don't feel like going to school anymore. i wanna enjoy life like what i just did, a break from a lot of preoccupations and just a moment to enjoy, enjoy, and enjoy life's surprises. ehh?
