Ondoy

Yesterday was really really really scary!! It was the first time that I have heard of "lagpas-tao" floods, and it made me more scared that it was just in Quezon City. My friends were stranded for 8-13 hours yesterday. Ghel and her friends even had to spend the night in the AB Building in UST. I badly want to know how was my family doing back here in Cavite but there wasn't any signal at all. Sobrang nakakatakot. You know the feeling when you know that the evil is just near? Very much near, killing and destroying.

This typhoon was really something different. Even the well-offs and the celebrities were affected. Even their beautiful houses and shiny cars were destroyed by Ondoy. Walang pinipili eh. Makes me very much thankful that my family and loved ones are okay after all. Please, let us pray for all the victims of Ondoy. Let us help in every little thing that we can do. We may not have the money to pledge or the power to go and volunteer, but we can still pray. And stop throwing garbage just anywhere.

Thank God for our safety.

You gotta love college!

Last week was really a very eventful one. Never thought all these can all happen within a week:

SEPTEMBER 14

A very messy and muddy get together with Debbie..

(No pictures attached. Come on ang dugyot namin nun! Hehe.)

SCL interview

Her name is Aling Minda. She is a street dweller in Espana whom we interviewed last Monday. A very humbling experience, indeed.

CHE General Assembly

Memorable quote/joke:

"Ano ang gusto niyong passing sa mga subjects niyo? Is it A: 40 na, negotiable pa. Or B: 80, o di sige, ikaw na matalino. To vote, just text the letter of your answer space the name of your prof. " And the professors bursted into laughter. HEHE.

One thing we learned that night: UST IS SO CREEPY AT 10PM ONWARDS!!!!

SEPTEMBER 17

Went to Adamson to cheer for our representative for the PICHE (Philippine Institute of Chemical Engineers) Idol. And guess what? UST won! :)

So Noel, the PICHE idol treated us all to Tapsi (a famous inuman in Dapitan) for a victory party. Had fun listening as my tipsy classmates unveil the secrets of their hearts. HEHE.

SEPTEMBER 18

It was Alom's birthday last September 15(same as debb) too. So he treated us for a dinner at Jollibee. Sobrang laughtrip ang pictures. HEHE.

So that's it. The pictures are in Facebook. I'll upload some when I have time; hope I'll find some because life goes back to normal after this week.

P.S. I love Blogger's new post editor. It's about time they make a change. Hope they change the stinking dashboard too!

Our baby's 8th.

She's the star, the clown, and the baby of the family. But for me, she's a bestfriend and a tropa. It seems just yesterday when the whole family's celebrating for her birth,thinking what name to call her. I suggested "Alyanna" and mom wanted "Trixie". But my dad won so now she's our one and only Vanessa. :) She may not be able to know about this now, but boy she already started playing y8 games, so I know she'll figure this blog out soon. Happy 8th birthday! I love you, my dear sister! :)

The bestfriend.

Happy 19th birthday to my Serena-slash-Peyton!
She's the prettiest and smartest bestfriend in the world.
Irreplaceable. I love you!

-Love,
Blair-slash-Brooke :P

oUSTed!

The Tigers have to make sure they beat Ateneo atleast once in the Final4 match!

We have to regain the glory. UST should not go down!

We're turning 400 in less than two years!! Come on guys!

I can't go back. Period.

I miss the past.
I miss being high school.
I miss the feeling of being carefree.
I miss being first year college.
I miss sleeping regularly at 10pm.
I miss those times when the most difficult thing to study was calculus.
I miss the past.

And I am sure, after sometime, I will also miss what I have today.
My life isn't as easy and as rosy as before, but I know I can make the life that I have now a better one. I cannot dwell on what was lost. I still have a lot; and that is what I should work on.

Oh fudge.

I just got home and I am already pissed. My mom told me to just leave my laptop at the dorm since I have lots of books and stuffs to bring home. When I got home, I was in a rush to finish my formal report but my brother won't give me the computer. Instead he told me to just use my dad's laptop which I find very difficult to use. Well, I saved my report in my flash drive but I forgot to convert it to .doc file. So I had to retype the whole report again. My goodness. How come I now hate doing papers? I used to be okay in doing my Investigatory Project all by myself when I was in high school. Oh engineering, what have you just done to me?

Noooooo. I missed the pilot episode of Gossip Girl season3! Hey is it any good? Please don't spoil me.
(1:15am EDIT: Okay I thought Season3 would have been aired first week of September. Hindi pa pala. Haha. Seriously, I have a lot of updating and catching up to do. ) Btw, Season 5 of How I Met Your Mother is coming soon! Suit up!

Quizzes schquizzes next week.

Gotta go and finish this report. Bye, folks. :P

Gorgeous faces from the hard drive

I figured that I have a liking of saving beautiful photos I come across from the net. Whether I like his face, her hair, the photo itself or the person him/herself, I save it. So here are some that I found in my computer.

Lee Min Ho(Minahal ko yan. HAHA), Kim Bum(CUTE;P), Patrick Dempsey(Most gorgeous doctor evurrrr), Will Smith(I like him and the picture), Chris Evans(Oh so hottttt!!), Ed Westwick(That's Ed sans the broad jawline), Channing Tatum(My JOE), Chace Crawford(He looks so manly on that picture, in contrast to most of his uhh, gayish ones) and Ryan Gosling(Love the good-natured face. And he's very much likeable. Marry me Noah).

Emma Watson(So candid with matching wind-blowing effect), Rachel Bilson (Don't you think she is so cute?), Blake Lively(that's one of the very few times we see Blake Lively as radiant, fresh and COMBED), Keira Knightley(Beautiful), Kim So Eun(she looks like a fairy there. Cute.), Song Hye Kyo(The most gorgeous Korean in my eyes), Emma Roberts(She grew up oh so fine), Demi Lovato(I love the picture), Taylor Swift(Now I know why God gave her curly hair --because she's going be too beautiful with a straight hair that it's going to be unfair for the rest of the girls in the world. :P)
