I woke up at 5 am today. For what you may ask? Enlistment that's what. Summer classes are over but the first sem is fast approaching. A part of me really wants to get back to school. I tell you, life at home is really, really boring. But hell knows what lies ahead of me this school year. Pressure man, pressure. Anyway, I pretty much like my schedule for the next school year, but, oh well, who knows what's gonna happen? One thing's for sure though, I'd be spending a lot of time in the Celadon room, CompSAT room, Rizal lib or Matteo. Then, there's the problem of getting to school and back. My schedule's different from last year and since I'm a "squatter", I really can't expect my family to adjust with my new schedule. Oh well, poor me.

Lately, I've been feeling a lot more neglected and ignored, I dunno why. >.< Watching Goal! today sort of brightened up my day. Thanks to Nicole! Besides the really hot lead, Kuno Becker, this movie is one of those like Coach Carter, Honey and You Got Served. Reminds me how much I miss playing futsal, my futsal shoes, shin guards and socks all shunned behind the closet. Oh yah, and did I mention that Kuno Becker is a hottie? He reminds me a lot of Chad Michael Murray. Maybe I really like guys who are bald. Hmmm... oh and Kuno Becker was dreamy. How many times have I said that? XP Really, you should watch the movie if you still haven't.



Kuno Becker is <3!

I have to write this down right now before I finally burst...

Malas ka talaga. Kung kailan akala mong maganda na ang nakuha mo, may mas magagandang makukuha pa rin ang susunod sa iyo. Bakit kaya? Hindi lang ba alam ng ibang tao ang gusto mo? O malas ka lang talaga? O baka, napilitan lang sila bigyan ka?

Ano man ang dahilan, aminin mo na, tanggapin mo na, MALAS ka lang talaga.

My cousin got married last Sunday. The wedding was held at the church near MOA. It was my first time to go in there and I really think it's a nice, cozy place. I was one of the secondary sponsors, cord sponsor to be exact. Basically, all I had to do was to place the cord on the wedded couple. But afterward, I had more stuff to do.

Since they didn't call for a wedding planner, it was my cousin (the groom's younger sister) who was in charge of everything. The two of us had to go to the restaurant an hour earlier to make the final preparations. I was later assigned to the entrance, along with another secondary sponsor from the bride's side, to let people sign in the couple's dedication book.

The funniest part in the dinner was when my name was called, along with my cousin's office mates, to have a picture with the newly-weds. I was surprised and I thought they called my name by mistake, but a look from cousin told me it wasn't. So I went on stage, 3 ladies and 3 guys took a group picture with the couple. Then another 6 people were called, one of them was my older girl cousin. Seeing that it was just a picture taking, she went on stage without hesitation. After the picture taking though, the emcee suddenly announced: "Congratulations! You six are the chosen singles to play our game tonight!" My girl cousin's face was priceless. She was shocked, while I on the other hand couldn't stop laughing. I was so lucky I wasn't chosen for the game. HARHAR. Anyway, I still haven't asked my cousin why he included my name in the list, since I just turned 18?!

LOL, does that mean I can have a boyfriend now? XP

I realized that my blog turned a year old last April 10. Pft, how insensitive of me. Anyway, happy birthday beesandsparrows. I'm glad you actually lasted for more than a year, considering that your older brother, whaoynneey was a big waste of time and was abandoned by yours truly within a year.

Yah, I used to be a bad blogger. XP

Anyway, nuther busy weekend. And I'm brain dead. Must be because of what happened last night. Or maybe it's because of the dream. Or maybe, I'm just being EMO again. Pft.

If I were born to a wealthy family, I wouldn't be what I am now.


It all started last Tuesday, May 1. My family went "window shopping" at SM. I have to admit it's been a long time since I last stepped inside a mall, so I was able to look through a lot of cool new stuff and new things that set the latest trends, as well as more new things to crave for.

Sadly, as I have said, I can only crave for these things. I remember last month while my parents were filling up my scholarship update form, I noticed that our family income didn't increase for the past year while our yearly expenses increased by a large amount. At first, I was really surprised that our expenses could still get this high considering that we didn't have to pay for my tuition (which really saves up a lot of money). After last Tuesday, I finally found the answer.

Prices of commodities have turned so high, it's amazing how some people can still afford these stuff. Perhaps, you have to be really, really rich to afford them. While I went through a new line of clothes and jeans from Lee, this was my usual routine: 1) I'd look through the designs, and if I found something I really like I'll 2) check the price tag. Well, surprise, surprise. The clothes actually cost more than my weekly school allowance. Mom kept urging me to try them on but I said, why bother? Why do you bother trying them on, finding them a perfect fit for you but in the end, you'll only be returning them back to the clothes' rack? I mean, what's the point? Hell ya, I've been wearing the same clothes over and over again. And my pants seem to be shrinking through constant wear, either because I grew taller or they're just really, really old. But that's the only thing your life can offer you, so face it. That's all you've got. Don't try too hard to improve yourself because no matter how beautiful your shell is, you still have the same inside.

I've been sulking since then. It sux to be poor. Well, I guess, I'm much more fortunate than other lower-class people but it certainly sux if you can't afford to buy the things you want. It also sux how everything bad that happened in your life starts to go back to you in your most miserable times. And to think the reason behind all these misery is the fact that I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth. Thus, the status message.

Ozy was the only one who gave me a very reasonable explanation to my predicament.

osmond go: And what is it that you are now?
Honey: poor
Honey: deprived
Honey: socially discriminated
osmond go: And if you were born to a wealthy family, do you think that you will have the same intelligence, friends, experiences?
osmond go: Everyone wants to be an heir/heiress.
osmond go: We are who we make ourselves to be.
osmond go: You only feel poor because you are surrounded by wealthy people.
osmond go: You are only deprived because you choose to live by their standards.
osmond go: And you are socially discriminated because you are Chinese, you can't do anything about that. Pinas tayo eh
Honey: *blink blink*
Honey: hands down ozy

-------

osmond go: But I doubt if you would want to have been sent to a lower-class school and be the richest and least deprived by default.
osmond go: Anyways wag mo na isipin yan, it only makes a person feel bad about themselves because they neglect to see the good things that have happened in their lives.

Thanks Ozy, grabe hands down talaga. You definitely shut me up after that. I mean, there's nothing else left to be said. Why complain about life when there are so many things you have to be grateful for? For one, I'm grateful I'm studying the course I love, in a university I love and that I'm part of an organization I love. Perhaps, if I were born to a wealthy family, I wouldn't realize how much these things mean to me. Sure, I'll get all the material things I've always wanted, but I'm definitely going to miss out the most important thing that has been keeping me going until now: fighting for my own successes.

They may be few, but I'm proud to say I've shed tears and blood by attaining them. And fortunately, they're all worth it.

Thank God I'm ME!!!

Last April 30, I went on a roadtrip with my father to Binan, Laguna. It was my uncle and cousin's birthday celebration and since mom was busy, I had to represent her for the occasion. Undoubtedly, I fell asleep on our way there. It was a really long trip, took us two hours just to get there because of the heavy traffic along Alabang. When we finally got there, turned out that many of our family members have not arrived yet. Pa and I helped ourselves to the buffet table, I went there twice. XP Then I was really, really bored. Good thing my aunt brought her laptop with her, although there was no WiFi Access, my cousin and I kept ourselves busy by playing the card games available in Windows. At the same time, I got in touch with my Chinese fangirl self. We got home at around 12 midnight. I was dog tired. But sometimes, it just feels great to be reunited with relatives and simply keeping in touch with the old me. XP
