My Dream Job

2010-11-17T15:05:59-06:00

A RESIDENT OF DR. HOUSE for crying out loud!

All differential diagnosis, no drama (hate Grey's). I want that, just that. Plus I get to be entertained by a grumpy old you-wanna-hate-him-but-he-is-just-so-damn-excellent doctor.

I'm too caught up with my course to want anything else for now. :)

Optimist or Pessimist?

2010-10-21T09:19:59-06:00

I wanna daresay something else or a pessimist, but then... my optimism is waddup? It beams on my face every after exam and whathaveme's. I just have this really persistent feeling that everything I do will turn out alright. No, not just alright... but satisfying. And it is sometimes irritating coz my hopes become so high, I fall painfully whenever I fail.

Then again, that sunny hopeful feeling comes back despite whatever.

I don't know if it's doing me more good than bad, but one thing is for sure... I need to constantly make sure that my actions are keeping up with my self-expectations.

And that, is hard work baby. Hard, hard work.

'Twilight' was kind of a letdown.

Every single bit of it, k? The cast, the set, the effects, the chosen lines and the acting (for crying out loud!)

I expected a lot from it, since I was an avid reader of the series. And the words were beautiful. Unfortunately, and exasperatingly, this beauty was confined lang to the book and wasn't translated into a good movie.

I wanted so much to walkout of the movie house especially when the romantic dreamy scenes have gone awry. Que horror! :(

Up to now, I'm still dismayed. Balitaan niyo na lang ako about New Moon, might not watch it. :|

One day, I'll be good at this.

This is very mababaw, pero I wanna learn how to juggle balls, and do ballpen stunts with my hands, and origami. :) I know that's a lot, and it's supposed to be one skill, so I'll sum all three up under one label: HAND and ARM DEXTERITY. Oha, oha! :)

I never learn to make paper airplanes kasi, or "bahay ni Tarzan" on rubber bands, and I always fail at ballpen stunts. Frustrations lang talaga. :|

When I realized I was a grown-up.

2009-09-05T07:10:05-06:00

When I started feeling responsible for my future aka first failure in UP. Hayy. Before UP, everything was just, play. I mean nothing very serious that you have to think seven times if you should do it or not. I just do what I want, and some effort here and there, and everything works out just fine. But in college, things were raised up to a higher difficulty level. And there were no transition stages, so it was really, difficult, yes like the clincher part of a quiz bee.

I hate being responsible for my life, coz I pretty much do everything the wrong way. But I have no choice. I just had to accept that, I'm a grown-up already, with grown-up obligations, and all that.. at the age of fifteen. :|

Eraserheads <3

2009-09-04T17:15:33-06:00

Yes, one Pinoy band that mattered.

I would pick a band closer to my heart.. and home. :) ERASERHEADS. They're the single most legendary band here in PHL, and every other band that rose and fell in the industry have great respect for this band. I grew up surrounded by their songs, on the radio, videoke, MTV, movie OST's, my kuya's mouth. They're everywhere, even now, several years after they have been disbanded. The members now have bands of their own. But nothing can ever beat the chemistry, fame and support Eraserheads once had. They are real Pinoy icons, and their music will remain embossed on every Pinoy heart.

And, wouldn't it be cool being the only girl member of a cool band? You'll be surrounded by envy. Haha. :)

Aww, Kristel and wishful thinking, they often come in one package.

Sunday I'm in love.

2009-09-04T11:25:10-06:00

It has traditionally been my love day, since I've started dating my boyfriend for five years now. :) Being with him takes away all my stress, many times more than any spa or massage can. He's my personal stress ball, and college made me realize his real worth to the role. I'd travel a thousand miles to see him, because I know it's always worth the while. Sundays are literally, loooooove. <3

Plus, I think, people are nicest on Sundays. :)

Lo, mabuti pa kayo ni Lola. :)

How did you kill time in your childhood days?
Because there's so little technology then, and perhaps they had a lot of free time as kids. By free, I mean, no "obligatory" facebook updates and pet feeding, and friend stalking, and the like, which actually take up most of the kids' time in this generation.

I wanna know how they explored the outdoors, which was surely way cleaner and more interesting then. I wanna know how much I have missed. So that when I finally have my own kids to raise, I'd know what they should be experiencing. They should do the things I wasn't able to do (if they want to, of course, but with a teeny bit of persuasion from me, haha.)

Sweet tooth is forever. :)

Pick one to experience heaven. :)

It will always be Haw Haw the Milk Candy. Perfect for a dairy person like me. And it reminds me of happy childhood memories too. Too bad, they're rare goodies nowadays. Perhaps I should buy myself one pack tomorrow! :)
