inevitable.

As I look at my hands right now, all I see are fine lines...aging? too early for that. but it shows. haha. through my hair. :

Last Sunday was a visit to our relatives. It's always been like that. We visit them every Christmas break to spend some time with them. After a back pain, an hour sleep and 130 km, we reached our destination. I talked to my cousin about what was school was like for them. right. haha.

So, college talk came. haha. UST or UP. or ADMU, DLSU, UE, PUP. haha. joke. basta yun. AC, FEU, CEU, AMA, STI? nice.

Yesterday, what do I remember about it? what was it...nothing really. just bummed around, and read the Lord of the Rings. :)

nice work J.R.R. Tolkien. hobbbits, wizards, dwarves, orcs: the one ring that will bind the others.

my precious. what's got in his pocketses? creepy.

Today was cleaning. of the mini-van. I didn't really contributed much, but I did what I could to help my sister. haha. I once again realized the hardwork it takes to really clean a car. It's not just wiping the dust of the seat or the stereo. That's why my hands are so dry right now. okay... It's just been a while since I really cleaned one. haha.

I would still have to call myself lucky despite doing things that most people don't do or rarely or always do. I am. :)

fade into the background.

stories to tell. haha.

saturday. just great. I and my sister convinced our mom to let us go somewhere while she and my other sister attend a wedding. So we ended at SM Mall of Asia. haha. predictable. a mall.

But instead of shopping, or fine dining, we went on skating at the olympic-sized rink. haha. nice. cool. It was very cold, of course. I and my sister skated our way to the snow. :D I really missed the feeling of trying hard not to fall. Not only it is humiliating in some sort of way, but it is also extremely painful. Well, it all depends on the landing I suppose.

What I'm trying to say is I fell. haha. again, again and again. My sister and I even got injured. Well, at least she got to try it for the 1st time. I got to skate again since 4th grade. haha. Our feet ached; but the fun took it all away. :D

We then found ourselves lost in the mall. I knew the mall was big, but we don't know the place much, so it's easy to not know where you're going.

We just went in circles, and to our dismay, the shop we were trying to locate was 4 shops away from where we originally started. We've searched the entire mall, hoping to see the Lord Stow's Bakery. After we found it, my sister decided not to buy. Anyway, it wasn't really a big loss. We got to see the whole mall, at least. :)

shoutout to Carlos! happy birthday! haha. :D

tis' the season to be jolly.

December 25 is over, but Christmas isn't. It's been ordinary for me, like any other day I'd spent. Except for the part that it's a holy day of obligation, and there's more food. haha. There are gifts too! okay. nothing great really so far about today's break. well, it isn't that bad. food supply has been really great. (okay, enough with the food, alright.) I'm just bumming around.

Playing the piano with the friendly Canon In D was nice, although it was giving me a feeling that I would never really master it. I watched anime again, thanks to Death Note. I'm planning to finish it by the end of the break. I never thought notebooks could be a very interesting subject to watch. Anyway, I just washed dishes again for the longest time. Yehey for me, I guess. haha. It's been a while.

I read again Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows for the "nth" time. Started last Wednesday, finished today. haha. Horcruxes vs. Hallows...right. StepMania's a big help since it improved my eye and hand coordination. what else...yeah! I would have wanted to go to a wedding tomorrow. But no. My sister would come instead because she's seeing a friend of hers. So...hoping to go somewhere else other than our home tomorrow.

I guess I'll never attend a wedding in my life...for now. haha. Before I forget, I would like those who have given presents to my mom, you surely gave us something to feast on! haha.

Belated 52nd birthday to my mom! Belated 23rd birthday to my sister! Belated 57th brithday to my dad. All birthdays were celebrated this December. :)

If I miss school, yeah. probably. but not loads of homeworks. or even the periodical test. See you soon!!!

abot kamay ang langit.

congratulations to us!!! haha. ito, kahit pagod na, patuloy pa rin ang kasiyahan sa pagkapanalo ng ating pangkat. woohoo. 2nd place for 1 1/2 weeks worth of practice. actually hindi pa nga araw- araw yung practice eh. haha. :) a very big thanks to everyone who participated and supported us!

Go Mr. Arawag, Mrs. Villegas amd Mrs. Camartin!!! haha. madami kaming nadiscover ha. :D Lubos ang aming pasasalamat dahil nandiyan kayo. haha...and we especially thank God for making it happen.

haay. walang tigil ang pagdaloy ng tubig. there are times when we tend to be complacent even though the current is weak. kaya pag lumakas, nasasama tayo. in short, malulunod.

life is unpredictable, one day you're up, the next second you're down. so...yun.

that's it then. see you around. :)

let it all out.

I should be doing our social museum simulation, instead I'm doing this. Minsan lang naman ito kaya pinagbigayan ko na. haha.

The past weekend has been just too cramped. Two prayer meetings, two masses, two practices, two experiments. Seems everything comes in twos already. Buy one, take one? No, thanks.

But it made me think that even though madami akong ginagawa, madami pa rin ako spare time na napunta lang sa personal purposes. TV, internet, sleeping, pagkain, paglakad, commute, and etc.

Here I am now hoping that I still have enough time to finish everything. Yeah, I know that I still need time for myself, but if I don't make any sacrifices, chances are I'll be suffering in the future. I'm going to be stuck with nowhere to go.

That's the last thing I want to happen right now.

So. I'll be finish with this early.

see you guys next time! :)

times change.

I can say this with a lot of sincerity. It's been a while since I've written anything on this blog. haha...laziness, and lots of things to do.

Practice didn't go that well, because the practice didn't pursue. To tell the truth, I wasted a lot of money and effort commuting to Makati, and this is what happens. frustration. On the good side, I'm still happy to have seen my classmates. haha. ")

I finally went to the cemetery without my mom! haha. I'm not saying it's a bad having her around; my sister drove us there. It's fun, and traumatizing at the same time because it's her first time (I think..) to drive with us around. I'm just happy to have gone home safely.

I can definitely say that we're all grown up. Since then, a lot has happened. With all the laughs, cries, and smiles, we've gone far from what we were before. I know you're proud of us right now. We miss you! Thanks for everything. :)
