I'm Not Saying "I'm Sorry."

At the end of the day, all I have to do is reset my password here in order to blog.  Ugh.  I must not forget my new password.  Anyway, I have no classes today because it's a Thursday!  Yay!  I love my T-Th sched.  HIHIHI.  Last Tuesday, I went to Yam's house for free internet and free food.  I feel so loved.  KBYE.  Today, I'm going to Nikki's house!  Sige, ako na ang pulubi na papunta punta nalang sa bahay ng mga friends.  K.  :))  Nikki and I are going to make a very special video.  <3 <3 <3  I am so excited!  I would do anything for tickets.  I would sell my soul for gold tickets.  =))

Yesterday was a very fun day.  If you know what I mean.  Anyway, it was fun.  It was ok.  The only glitch was the stupid Globe signal.  HASSLE.  UST, please fix your Globe cell sites thingy.  PLEASE.

Guys, listen to 30 Seconds To Mars' Closer To The Edge.  It's my favorite song from their This Is War album.  HIHIHI.

Amber Is The Color Of Your Energy.

For the past few days, I've been having these weird gushing feeling whenever I look at an Amber Heard picture. I don't think these are lesbian feelings.  Hmm, I just find her really hot, gorgeous, and attractive.  I don't fantasize about her, though...  Yet.  Kidding aside, God, I find her really pretty.  She's like a mini version of Scarlett Johansson.  <3 <3 <3

Isn't she a babe?  OMG.  She's so pretty.  I just want to cuddle with her.  AYYY K. =))  As far as I'm concerned, these are not lesbian tendencies.  Although I think I'm in love with her.  HAHAHAHAHAHA.  JK.  I just think she's really hot and gorgeous.  Someone I'm not.  KBYE.  =))  God, my hilarity is on a roll!

Stop-Along The Way.

I love Gossip Girl.  I've been with them through thick and thin.  My favorite season was season 1.  I think it was the best.  Blair's hair wasn't annoyingly flat, Serena's hair was not lanky and dry-looking.  Even Chuck's hair was better there.  The only hair I didn't like in that season was Nate's.  His hair was funny-looking.  Anyway, it's not just about the hair..  I think their dresses and outfits were better in season 1.  Ok, fine.  That was not a good reason.  Hmmm, can I just say that GGS01's plot was very, very good?  After S02E01, season 2 went downhill.  It wasn't that fun to watch anymore.

Anyway, here are some nice season 1 memories:

See, Blair's hair was better! Even her clothes were better.

Even Serena was better here!

Oh GGS01..  Good times.

Mhm, Bad Nose Job.

If you were to ask me what my favorite fairy tale is, I would probably say, "Penelope" without any hesitation.  See, I am not a fan of love stories because the cheesiness grosses me out but, I think Penelope is an exception.  (Hmm.  Although, it's not really cheesy.  No problemo.)  Partly because James McAvoy was so maddeningly hot and attractive there but mostly because of the plot.  It's like a coming-out-of-a-shell story.

It's a nice movie because it talks about Penelope's curse being lifted if someone of her kind learns to love her and her very bad nose job, if you know what I mean.  In the end, all she has to do was learn to love herself.  She just needs to accept herself and make the most out of it.  I think that's one of the best fairy tale-ish message a fairy tale could give you.  Learn to embrace your imperfections and learn how to love yourself.

I think James McAvoy is devilishly handsome in this movie.  Or I just really like guys with long and messy hair.  Mmmm.  Anyway, if you haven't watched it yet, you're missing the other half of your soul.  Oh yeah, did I mention that Sigur Ros' Hoppipolla is featured here?  That makes this movie more awesome.  Hihi.

Weathervanes.

If you enjoyed listening to Fanfarlo's I'm A Pilot, you would sure die for Freelance Whale's Broken Horse.  It's a-a-a-a-a-amaaaaaaazing.  No kidding.

This song is so good to listen to especially on this kind of weather.  Chill and relaxed.  Mmmm.  Just right.

The Boy Who Lived.

I watched Green Lantern today.  Alone.  Isn't that great?  I feel so mature and grown-up.  See, it's my first time to watch a movie alone, so please bear with me.  ANYWAY, as I was saying before I rudely interrupted myself, I watched Green Lantern alone and unaccompanied by my brother or my parents or my friends.  It was so cool. I was the man!  I was the man!  Ohmygod, I'm babbling again.  Ugh, fiiiine.  Ok, before I get overly enthusiastic (and I mean overly enthusiastic) over this meager accomplishment, let me tell you about the movie.  It was ok, as far as superhero movies go.  I'm not being biased, I think, but, I really prefer the plot of Batman.  It's so much deeper and mind-blowing.  You get to see self-sacrifice and the honorable and honest-to-goodness values type.  Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed watching Green Lantern!  Ryan Reynolds was so devilishly hot.  I could stare at his abs all day long and not notice the drool flowing down my chin.  Anyway, see, the good thing about Green Lantern is that it talks about conquering your fears.  And, wow, that's a big thing.  All of us people are afraid of something.  And if Parallax was plainly sitting at a sidewalk, he could easily feed from everyone that passes by.  I think fear is something constant.  It's everywhere.  So, yes, that's what the Green Lantern movie was trying to tell us, it's not bad to fear something, that's human.  But, we should learn how to face these fears.  We should learn how to overcome it.

And that's saying something.  I mean, it's not easy to fight your fears or your phobias.  I, for one, get really vicious and hysterical when there are big dogs around.  Hmm, come to think of it, even puppies scare me.  And, I can't seem to knock over that fear.  It's just there.  And it always wins.  So, Hal Jordan was really something because he was able to crush down the demons inside his head and come out as the winner.

Anyway, before the movie started, they were showing some trailers.  I was particularly intrigued by the Hanna movie thing.  Eric Bana was there.  And, yeah, the plot was fascinating.  I would like to watch that.  Anyone who wants to watch it with me?  Hehe.  So, they were showing some trailers then all of a sudden, the Harry Potter trailer was shown.  It was, god, heartbreaking.  Let's get one thing straight, I am not a fan of the movies.  I am entirely devoted to the book.  But, that's another topic.  Let's dwell on that some other time.  Anyway, the trailer broke my heart.  After the last Harry Potter movie is shown, it really is the end.  There's nothing to look forward to anymore.  It's like an ending for a generation.  I mean, are you getting me?  See, after the last book was published, I was affected.  Really affected.  But, at the back of my mind, I didn't feel like it was really the end because there are still those crappy movie adaptations to see and to critic or to laugh at. (I'm only saying this because they don't give the book any justice.  The Harry Potter books were fuuuucking brilliant!) So, are you getting me?  Now, that the last movie is going to be shown, my heart sunk because there are no more books nor movies to read and to see.  It's over.

The older generation might never understand this devotion to Harry Potter.  But, they didn't stick with Harry through the very beginning.  They did not know the hardships and the heartaches Harry went through to finish Voldemort.  They have no freakin' idea how great and devoted Harry was to his friends and to the people he loves.  Harry Potter is not just a book.  It is never just a book.  It's a generation who grew up together and who understood each other.

I belong in that generation.  So, forgive me if you can't understand my love, adoration, and my respect for Harry Potter.

Good day to you all.  :-)  (Oh yeah, I don't own the photo.  I just looked for a potterhead image and that's the BEST one I've found.)

It's Kind Of A Funny Business

So, today, I was peacefully reading War and Peace when I heard one of the most dreadful songs EVER.  Celine Dion was singing All By Myself.  I have no issues with Celine Dion.  I mean, I think she's really talented.  I do have some issues regarding that All By Myself song.  Sue me for being overly dramatic and affected but, God, I don't know what happened or how it happened but for a very, very, and I mean, very long time, that song managed to irk the bejesus out of me.  It's so annoying that I would prefer to listen to Quimbo's angelic voice than hear that god forsaken song.

I'm the one with the issues, I know, ok?  I don't really have any idea why I get so twitchy and really snappy whenever I hear that song playing on the radio or videoke or something.  Maybe it's because I find the song really ugly and hurtful to my ears.  God, seriously.  What an ugly song.

Ugh.  See what that song did?  It ruined my day.  Hmph.

If you adore or love that song, I am so sorry for saying bad things about it.  Really, I do.  You could listen to it, for all I care.  Although, in my opinion..  Ugh, bleugh, UGH!

Fables & Reflections.

I'm in the dorm right now and, hallelujah, the router's working!  Free wi-fi for everyone!  Anyway, it's a Thursday and I have no classes.  Yay, more angels singing and dancing the congo!  ANYWAY, my title is from the 6th graphic novel of The Sandman Series.  It's one of my favorites.  And, can I just say that I am so freakinly and insanely happy that Jodie's reading The Sandman Series?  It's one of the awesome-est graphic novels ever.  Plus, Neil Gaiman wrote it.  No explanation needed there.  See, he was able to weave this story about Destiny, Death, Dream, Destruction, Desire, Despair, and Delirium.  I'll give you one example, Desire and Despair are twins.  And, when you really think about it, when you desire something too much and you can't have it..  It'll lead you to despair.  I'll give another one, before Delirium -- she was Delight.  But then she got stood up at the altar and other bad things happened to her..  Then she became Delirium.  I mean, by god, Neil Gaiman was able to make a story out of this fairly ordinary emotions and topics.  Are you getting me?

(clockwise from left to right) Death, Destiny, Dream, Destruction, Desire, Delirium, and Despair.

(L-R) So, that's Desire, Despair, Destiny, Dream, Death, Delirium, and Destruction.

(L-R) Dream, Delirium, Death, Destiny, Desire, Despair, and Destruction.

This is Destiny.  He's the oldest.  I don't really like him.  Hmmm.

This is Death.  She's the only person that could talk some sense to Dream.  She's one of my 3 favorites!

And this is Dream or Lord Morpheus.  He's the protagonist.  And he's also one of my personal favorites.  He's really creepy and intimidating.  He never smiles!

This is Destruction.  He took off..  But, you'll find out more about him in latter books.  Despair is closest to him.

This is Desire.  Desire could be a girl or he could be a boy.  S/he has no specific sex.  S/he is such a tease.

This is Desire's twin, Despair.  She's really, reaaaaally depressing.

Lastly, this is Delirium.  She's my other-other favorite.  OMG.  She's really entertaining!

Anyway, it's really amusing to read The Sandman series.  There are a lot of quotable quotes.  =))  And, these quotes would help boost your morale!

Hmmm.  I have two papers to make and, look what I'm doing.  I'm promoting The Sandman series.  SERIOUSLY GUUUUUUUUYS, read it.  Although, it's a real challenge to complete these series.  My brother and I spent 3 years looking for the missing episodes in every book store in the city before finally completing this baby.  So there you have it..  One of the best graphic novels ever!

Nightmares Of The Present.

Some of my favorite Sandman convos:

T - Todd

J - Janet

D - Dream

T: It's all getting to be too much for me.  I feel I'm out of my depth.  I'm scared. I'm scared I'm going to do something stupid.

D: And if you do something stupid, what then?

T: ..  Aren't you scared of falling?

D: It is sometimes a mistake to climb; it is always a mistake never even to make the attempt.

T: What are you saying?  That I ought to go back to the show?  Not walkout?  Is that what you're saying?  You're just a dream.  Listen, I've made up my mind.

D: If you do not climb you will not fall.  This is true.  But is it that bad to fail, that hard to fall?  Sometimes you wake, and sometimes, yes, you die.  But there is a third alternative..

J: You seem different today.

T: I met someone who changed my mind about A LOT of things.

J: I'd like to meet her!

T: It's a HE.  And I don't even think he exists.  He's just a little voice in the back of my head, saying.. 

J: Yes?

T: Sometimes you wake up.  Sometimes the fall kills you.  And sometimes when you fall?  You fly.

Give Me Love Love.

And I like this song.  I heard it when the credits of X-Men was rolling.  It's such a peachy song.  Jonah said I have a really bad taste in music.  :))  I beg to differ.  =))

It's beautiful, isn't it?  Must download this song!

At Least I Know What I'm Talking About.

So, classes started last Wednesday.  The day I was dreading the most was actually..  Fun.  I missed my college friends a lot.  I had a nice time laughing my lungs out.  I haven't roared in laughter like that for a very, very long time.  See, I spent my last few weeks at home being miserable and annoyed.

Anyway, first week of school and I already have a couple of papers to submit next week.  What a bummer.  I mean, c'mon, give me a break.  It's the start of AY 2011-2012.  What the professors should be doing is making us, students, feel happy to be back at school.  Hmmm.  Or maybe I'm just clinging on to that thought because I'm too lazy to do any of my assignments.

ANYWAY, if we have the same musical taste, you would surely enjoy the song/video I posted up there.  It's Fanfarlo's I'm A Pilot.  Mygod, you should listen to that song.  It's like drugs on a bread.  Which is saying something because I haven't dabbled on drugs yet.  Not that I have any intention to try, um, drugs.  THE POINT IS, I've been listening to that song ALL WEEK LONG (Plus La Sera's Never Come Around)  It's such an awesome song.  It makes me want to watch documentary films about green fields and tulips or something.  Huh.  Weird side effect.

Yesterday, I watched X-Men: First Class with Jonah, Nikki, and JM.  The movie was so wonderful.  I especially liked Azazel.  Jason Flemyng was FLAMING in that red body paing thing.  Hubbah hubbah.  =P~  

And that's that.  I think I should start researching for that weird research paper on Socio thingy.  Ugh.

So, goodbye summer.  Let's see each other soon, yes?

(Oh yeah, I don't own the picture up there.  I just found it somewhere in google.)

Everything You Wanted Me To Hide Is Everything That Makes Me Feel Alive.

Last night and today was a, hmm, how should I describe it..  Hmm, I've started staring at the ceiling again with just my iPod blasting on some music.  See, there was a time when I could do this everyday.  Staring intently at the ceiling or counting sheep while listening to good music was my forte.  I don't really know what happened.  Maybe I got side-tracked with watching movies and series.  I dunno.

So, anyway, I'm doing one of m favorite-est hobbies again in the whole wide world.  My iPod is stronger and better and..  Older.  And that makes me jump to another topic, see, I want to buy a new iPod but I can't just, I mean, I don't and I can't leave my old iPod to just sit somewhere and rot.  You have no idea how much I love Ipe.  I consider him one of the greatest friends ever.  He's been with me through thick and thin for, what, the past  4 years.  So, I can't just throw him or something.  He's special.  Anyway, I do want a new iPod.  Gaaaah.  I really need to think about this some more.  Hmmm.

Er, yeah.  Awwwkweeerd.

I Just Don't Want To Forget You.

Hey y'all.  Hmm.  Scratch that.  That sounded weird.  Summer's about to end and I'm in the weird cycle again.  I don't ever want to go back to school.  I know that Jodie & my mom's getting annoyed with all my rants and my whines.  But, dear God,  I don't ever want to go back to that hellhole.  I've been begging and pleading but my mom wont just let me have a sabbatical leave or something.  I was telling everybody here in the house how unhappy I am.  I don't want to go back to school.  It sucks there.

I have never felt this way when I was in high school.  I was always happy to be in school.  Don't get me wrong, I rant a lot regarding the requirements.  Man, my high school teachers could drive me crazy with those papers, homeworks, requirements, quizzes, etc.  But, hell, I would be the biggest liar in the world if I don't tell you guys that, yeah, I enjoyed doing those things.

Anyway, the thing is, I don't like college.  I have never been more unhappy in my whole life.  I don't like my school and I don't know what the hell's going to happen to me after graduating.  Ugh.  If only I took my entrance exams seriously.  If only I focused.  I regret not doing so many things.

So, here's to another hellish and WTF school year, cheers.

You're Always On My Mind.

You know what, this is actually a very nice EP.  It's one of my favorites.

I'm not being biased or anything.  Guys, listen to this EP.  Especially to I'm Yours Tonight and Days Like Masquerades. :> MMMMM.
