back in the olden days...
































back in the olden days, the stove was still carved from real stone... and well, life was hard... march 26 was the day we decided to have ouur semi-annual grilling from my grandfather... well, when we got to tarlac, the whole house was in their backyard...hehe... anyway i was so tired with my activities the day before (woke up at 6am hardly slept...tried to wake up gra and dianne... but was unsuccessful... at about 9 we started burning our brain cells... well shoti and I did... the rest, just sang their day away... ended at 6:30pm.... worked a lil more until 7:30... went to another party...went home... receivedd a text from shoti..revised most of what we did... left some instructions to him since i can't work the next day... worked till 11pm... tried to sleep again..but again unsuccessful) to talk... after the mass, we went to uniwide (that place still exists!!! in tarlac the only living branch) then i fell asleep in one of the two beds in the unfinished house... my mom woke me up... kakain na daw... sa MAX!!! thats a wow for my uberly kuripot family.. anyway, then i received a text from our irreg when we were first year (phar2) who was demanding me to let him in our yahoogroups... like duh, i'm in the province where there was no internet access and stuff like that... so i had to pull some strings(thanks kat!)... anyway, we ate for an hour than we went home, and then I again fell asleep... but felt tired of sleeping (despite the lack of it)... so I went out... and my grandfather just went on and on and on... checking on all of my cousins' lives... hmmm.... i well, passed with flying colors... my sister and I did... the rest, hmmmm... no comment... they might be reading.. hihi.... but it was cool... di naman niya criniticize lahat e... meron lang kinaa...uuhhmmm...let's just say kinadinidisappointan niya.. anyway... sabi lang niya sa akin, pagbutihin ko daw, dahil gamot ang malaking market... in layman's term...open a drugstore...which i'm opposing to... most of the people who i know own a drugstore are well... closed to being bankrupt... but if it's my grandfather's wish, then i'll find a way to fulfill it.. minus the pressure...somehow i'll find a way, to make my grandfather proud... of our family...haha...

on a lighter note, i was able to sleep early coz i know the next day would be crucial...yup... today... today will really be crucial...

year end party?

Last march 24, 2c had our year-end blast in my house... truthfully to describe it, it was a disaster masked with tiredness and childishness..

8:30... our literature exam... it was cool... but everyone answered it in a breeze... so.. no one really took it seriously... anyway... maam firme was our facilitator, and she looked real mad... oh well, can't say much about that..

9:00... i went outside despite finishing the exam 10 mins earlier... baka sigawan lang ako ng firme... kung napaaga ang pagpasa ko..

9:30... bham, gra, dianne and I went ahead... hey we had to cook.... so dumaan muna kami sa pinagorderan namin ng lumpiang togue... we were real afraid the the lrt security guards would hold our entry.... sabi ko kay bham wag masyadong ilapit ang paper bag sa nose ng secu... hehe.... we went through...

10:45... we reached home, and started the cooking spree which turned out to be a well... a tragicomedy... or whatever you call it... natapon ung flour kay bham... and she turned all white... we forgot to buy the essential of the carbonara...cream of mushroom...

12:00...they started coming... andrew's group came first...we started panicking... so far, the only food cooked was the mixed vegetables... not counting the togue..

1:00... the fishballs, fish nuggets were cooked... i felt my guests were already bored. some where already making their own fun... others were sulking in my living room with my really outdated chick magazines... by this time, i simply didn't want to care...

2:00 pm... at long last everything was cooked... i wanted to take a shower so I did... and just left them alone with uno stacko and boggle... akala ko di nila papatulan un... lalo na ung boggle coz its a brain game... siguro sa sobrang bored nila, wala na silang choice... my parents, they whispered... sa labas daw sila kakain... nahiya ako... guilt trip to when my mom's gonna be operated...

2:30pm... we started eating... they started eating... i, just sat... stared and well, didn't care... i was tired...

3:00... i decided to eat... but it turned out i got food in my plate, running around the house to accomodate everyones needs...i started playing texttwist (not wanting to stand up anymore)... with andrew and alfred... and some other people who every ten minutes left our sides, like... kc, jc, sino pa ba? a whole lot more, i can't really remember..

4:00... i was still holding my full plate... and did not feel that hungry anymore... so, i put it in the fridge..

5:00... my parents left again... nakakahiya talaga... they said they were going to mass... but hello, the mass wasn't on till two hours...anyway, it was cool enough to stay in our garden already... of course we had a pictorial... and then, they started playing volleyball and badminton..and got really loud that our neighbors looked...

around 5:30... chasty asked if she could wash her feet... i brought her and kath to our backyard... and started spraying them with water... which gave me a brilliant idea...

6:00... we started wetting (such a word) the ones who were playing outside.. haha... laugh trip... such a wonderful thing to do... lalo na kung bad trip ka most of the day...

6:30... medyo bad trip bad trip na ulit ako... i don't know why.. just one of my mood swings... to those 2c who are reading this, it wasn't anyones fault... my bad...

7:00... heart to heart talk with someone who had a problem that day... and then...star gazing...haha... as if merong stars...

7:30... my parents offered to send off my ust-bound classmates to ust... haha...swerte nila my sis had a baccalaureate (spelling?) mass that day...

8:30... anggulo na nila bham... at si gladys parang pinainom ko o pinahithit ng kung ano man...sabi ni jessa, its just my house... at kaya lagi daw akong ganun din sa school...

9:30... umalis na sila bham... i went out... saw kat, at nagusap kami...about life, tsismis at lahat na... gulat ako, coz when i arrived there, naguusap sila ni dianne... anyway, tinawag ni tumalad si dianne.. that's why, kat and i were left there... while... miguel and carla said that they'd go for a stroll.. irony... kung ano ang ironic, bahala na kayo magisip...anyway, goodluck naman sa kanila kung saan pwede sila magstroll...so back to kat, since this ym thing came on, kat and I became really close... pagtakot ako sa reaction ng mga pinakaclose kong friends, I run to her...

10:00... kat went home... too bad she couldn't stay more... truthfully nung time na un, i just wanted to hit the sack... but there were still people around... and I really didn't like the senti thing going on... hindi naman sa ayoko maging close sa kanila, but... I know it's really hard to open up in a group of more than 3... that's why, dianne, when tumalad grilled you on that single question, I felt for you...

12:00... more of thirty minutes after twelve... they left.. the guys did... gra and dianne sleptover my house... i couldn't sleep anymore... but knowing that the day after would be tiring (thesis) well.... i tried my best....

oh and did i mention that that friday was a no meat day... so... we weren't able to serve meat... duh.. and it was our first "alcohol" (if vodka and red wine counts) free party... kaya i wasn't liable in any of gladys' injuries while she was high...hahahaha....
