Light-Headed.

POST TAKEN FROM: private multiply account

So I guess the idea yesterday of napping and trying to "study" in a later time at night didn't go so well. My cousin thunder was over and brought a Season 1 Ugly Betty DVD. He stuck it in the DVD player and was playing it while using the PC. I got hooked watching it (tsk tsk. OH NO!) and so he had to go and he left the DVD behind, playing! Bad idea. So I was watching from 1 season to another. I was in bed around 2 or 3 am, but the DVD kept playing. At around 5am, I heard my yaya unlocking the door, I pretended I was sleeping. She turned off the TV and aircon, and so I finally resolved to actually sleeping.

After about an hour and a half, I got up and showered. I was feeling very light-headed, at the same time my head was also feeling kinda heavy. So I hurried to school for the 7.30am make up Physics exam. I got there and a few minutes later the teacher arrived. She seemed a bit oblivious with me showing up with my excuse letter. She said she didn't prepare a test paper so she's making me take the test next year! Wow. Good thing, cause I was no where near prepared.

IT26 exam was okay but I'm sure I took it poorly. I even fell asleep somewhere in the middle of the exam. I was also scribbling words, and when I woke up, I wondered to myself why I wrote such words down. I was so disoriented, you can say. I was the last pne to hand in the test paper! haha.

CS1278 Christmas party was a joke. No plates, no spoons, forks, and everything. I didn't each much, just a munchkin and a cup of "punch" (ice tea actually served in the big tupperware with ice and floating water) -- this "punch" was prepared in the boys CR mind you. Haha. Sir Lhar left his lappy playing Heroes Season 3. Each group brought food, but I think our was the most expensive >.< We brought spaghetti which dad delivered before class and yaya and mommy prepared last night. 135php each for our group, a group of four. But after the party no one paid me and I was too shy to ask and I just left. Hopefully tomorrow they'll pay up. Others brounght vhicharon, sandwhich, brownies, and munchkins. It wasn't much fun since I didn't really know the crowd, they were nice though.

In Ayala, I came here with lola mona but she had to go. I'm here in Netopia Ayala, right now, blogging. Oh Joy! Had nothing to really do while waiting for my mum and sister to come. They'll still be stopping by a salon. Anyhoo, I'm so tired right now. Light-headed. I have deadlines to catch for later this evening. I lack sleep. Finally school's over for this year.

Hope we all get a Merry Christmas and a well-deserved Christmas vacation!

Exams Tom. "Oh Joy"

POST TAKEN FROM: private multiply account

So, two exams tom. Grand huh? Not!

I was absent in my Physics class last Saturday. Slept late and was too lazy to get up, missed a test so I'm taking a special exam tom.

IT26, our major subject, exam tom. too. I barely have time to absorb all the things I need to know. To top it all of, I had a REALLY BAD HEADACHE prior to my 2 hour nap. Had to force myself to study earlier since my friend (Jade! Thank you!) was available to tutor me at home.

I really am not in good terms with physics! Grrr.

Oh well~ I'll have to deal with it.

I'm bringing 1 1/2 kilo of spag tom. We're having our CS127 Chistmas par-teyh! haha!

Everyone of my classmates younger than I am (or so I assume, except that one guy who just shifted from Engeneering I think).

Our class, population of 18 students, 1 teacher, and 3 sit-ins.

In the 18 students, 2 are IT, 4 are girls, and the rest are CS guys. Yes, only a few survived.

A course in danger of extinction huh? Tsk tsk.

Well, to all CS students (and IT students as well)--- FIGHT FIGHT!

God bless!

PS: I created a quizilla account yesterday and I'm blogging the same blog there. bwahaha!

So a few weeks ago I stumbled upon this photo and told Jade and Ron about it the next day, but even they found it hard to imagine.  They tried to and a weird expression was on there face, it seemed like a horrible thought was in their minds...

So here it is for all to see.  Weird?  Oh well, should I say enjoy?

RED Mobile huh?

POST TAKEN FROM: private multiply account 

So a competitor to SUN Cellular Network has finally risen huh?  About time! Haha! What better way to get rid of the excess users than have them transfer to other networks, I am speaking as a user of the said network.  Pretty soon the cell users' population will be well distributed.  :)

I think the RED Mobile will be crowded at first.  The SIM that only costs 39php, it's new, has a cool name, and it's under smart.  Smart having better signal, covering a wider range of area, we probably can expect about the same performance on signal for this new network.

The weird part though that I don't get is why they made it to only fit 3G phones?  Tsk tsk.  So those without 3G phones will not be able to avail of there services.  Anyhoo, as for me, I think I'd like to give this network a try. :)  

Plus, Elwin just text messaged me about it.  He said that we should try switching to RED Mobile. :D  That's why I got into browsing about it in the first place.  Prior to him mentioning it to ne, I didn't hear a word about it. haha! 

We cellphone users now have a lot of options to choose from:
Globe,  Touch Mobile, Smart, Talk & Text, Addict Mobile (is this a network? not sure.),  any other networks I fogot to mention?  And the new entrant to compete with the existing networks (most especially with the SUN Network) --- the new RED Mobile!  


Here's what I got off the internet while I was browsing:

Red Mobile website officially launched

Published by: yuga under: Mobile , Telecoms.
posted: November 22nd, 2008

The new Red Mobile website has been launched and we finally have the details of the service.
Based on initial impressions, the Red Mobile service looks like it’s aimed to compete with Sun Cellular.
Some key offerings below:

• Php0.50 per minute call rate between Red Mobile to Red Mobile SIM.
• SIM card is sold at Php39 each. Each SIM is pre-loaded with Php10 or an equivalent of 20 minutes of RM-RM calls.
• 3G browsing rates is P7.50 for every 15 mins or an equivalent Php30 per hour.
• Php10 minimum load denomination.

Red Mobile SIM must be used with a 3G capable handset. Likewise, service is limited to areas where there are 3G signals. This is because CURE has an NTC license for a 3G band so they cannot operate outside of their frequency.
This will cover all cities in the country as well as major regions. It might not work if you’re in a far-away island or in mountainous regions. You will have to consult Red Mobile support for availability of their service.
Disclosure: Red Mobile is an advertiser on this blog and several other blogs I author.

thoughts for your thoughts...


When one likes someone, does the other person (the person you like) have the right to know?
Is the right for the person being crushed on existent at all?

If only we go back to being children, in the sense that we are honest.
Each of us freely saying and showing to others what and how we truly feel.
It is sad how a crush only remains as a crush, it will indeed be heart-crushing.
There are those who love, love even when the love they give is not reciprocated.
Not because the other does not love at all, simply because they are unaware,
or perhaps you are just not too obvious with how you feel.

To the crushee, this "hidden agenda" of yours may go unnoticed, or it may even be just annoying to them.
You may act in certain ways that doesn't makes sense to the crushee since they do not know how the
crusher is feeling.

There is a sad reality in this whole "Crush" thing that usually goes unnoticed.
There are those crushes that will always stay in your heart, engraved, and forever unmoved.
The crusher is left with wondering what could have been, if only.  Yes, if only.
And to the crushee, all these will make no sense, all these makes no difference.
Maybe the crushee has no idea at all what it was about the crusher, him/her acting the way he/she did.
Or maybe the crushee too, will forever wonder what might have happened if only the truth was told.
Maybe he/she (most likely she) was just waiting... waiting for something to be said.
Would it have been the two them together?  Would it have been that they'll be in a wonderful relationship?
Yes, because what if the crushee is also crushing on the crush!
omG! What have you guys done?!!

Leaving things in silence, unspoken, unmoved, and left behind.
All that's left for both of you is to wonder.
Wondering is all you'll have, and sadly, maybe even some regret.
This "wondering" might haunt you up to the day that you are with another,
maybe up to when you are married and with kids already.
You will just wonder.
Could it have been the crushee just needed someone to help him/her realize?
Could it have been the crusher and the crushee together?
Could it have been them if only one of them would have said something sooner? 

We can only wonder.  No one can really tell...

Oh well, that's life~

Fire Happened

POST TAKEN FROM: private multiply account 

So the usual Sunday happened.

       I lazily got up around 10am after getting more or less 7 hours of sleep.  I stayed up late on the phone with Elwin.  I played with Miggy a bit, the birthday dog.  I took a shower and got some pretzels to go and hold off the hunger I felt.  Sacred Heart Church was packed as usual, especially since we were a few minutes late.  Right after we finished the mass we were off to Ayala, the mall place for our family.  Dad drops us off the entrance as he goes and park the car.  My sister, mother, and I- I'd like to say we're a team in this kind of thing, heads to foodchoices.  Holly goes off and looks for a table with my mom and I go line up for the ever-so-wanted lechon [CNT].  The line is usually long but not today since we arrived later than usual that others already had their orders taken and by now they were all busy eating.  Mom goes to me after they get a table.  After we order, by this time Dad's already with us.  Holly and Mom then finishes with all the other orders from other stores.  After eating mom and I went to Maze, had a phone fixed cause she'll be sending it to her brother, it took a while. 

       We headed to the Salon right after, Holly went strolling around and my Dad was off to do the groceries.  So I was sitting down, feet soaked.  Then the pedicure began.  I noticed some people were looking curiously across the glass window of the Salon, I thought at first someone fainted or something but I didn't pay too much attention to it.  I am not fond of getting into other people's business.  So after one of my foot got painted, I saw Holly starting towards me with a facial expression that seemed like she was worried or panicking.  She said that there's fire within the mall.  I saw the lady across me rushing up the manicurist to finish up while she was on the phone with whom I assume was her son/daughter.  She was asking where their child was and was saying that his/her dad was on the way with panic in her voice.  I remained calm, I thought the fire could be contained, nothing big.  Suddenly my manicurist got up, people started out the door,  I saw my mom and Holly and they gestured that we go out the door.  Outside I saw some people panic in ways I have only seen in TV.  One woman looking back and forth not knowing where to head off to.  My sister was way ahead of us, me and my mom followed behind her.  We got out at the entertainment center.  On our way out I was shaking a bit, trying so hard to contact my dad.  I finally got to reach him, he said he's in the car and trying to get out and it wasn't easy because of the traffic jam in the underground parking lot.  The first thing I did when we got out was call my boyfriend, but he didn't pick up. 

       I saw a familiar Chinese guy go out of a rad black big pick-up car.  He's last name is Tan I'm sure, he's Ahia Mark, Achie Lenlen, and Achie Dada's brother.  He hurriedly got off his ride with the fireman suite in his hand, running off inside the mall as people were hurriedly running out.  It was inspiring to see that guy, kind of made me want to be a volunteer fire woman someday, made me proud of the Filipino-Chinese people too.  My dad and I were quite sure he was a Filipino-Chinese volunteer fireman, their station located beside Cebu Cherish School near Chong Hua Hospital.  Brave people those guys.  We rode off home, me with one painted foot. 

       I guess that was not a near death experience or anything, but it sure made me feel the kind of panic you'd only see in movies.  I hope no one got hurt. 

It was not like the usual Sunday after all.

Best Friend

To the one I knew so well
Hello there! How are you? 
Has life been treating you well? 
I’m glad we met again

To the one I knew so well
It was years of friendship we had made
Then the time came, both of us parted
It was a bitter goodbye

To the one I knew so well
We both shared everything before
But after those goodbyes we left
Then we never heard of each other

To the one I knew so well
You thought you knew me well too, didn’t you? 
But how come you never felt
I loved you more than just a friend

To the one I knew so well
Years apart really do a lot
Now you’re married
I find myself in an awkward spot

To the one I knew so well
It was nice seeing you again
The pain I felt over the years never felt more real
Now I bid you once again, farewell

Faded Pictures, Enjoy It

07.13.08

One day as I cleaned out my table
Pictures of old days revealed themselves
I got carried to the past, feeling unstable
Feeling numb, sitting across the shelves

The past had bigger and brighter smiles
As painted on the pictures as evidence
But now my mind wonders off for miles
Thinking in the deep solitude and silence

What was in the past?
Why were we all happier then?
What was that reason I just can't grasp?
Why this sadness all of the sudden?

I thought, and re-thought things in my head
Suddenly words scribbled in, something that read:
Before we had less, each ones company was a lot of worth
But now we're just preoccupied with all the unnecessary work.

All too busy to have fun, be cheerful, and be happy
I now get that we've all been too exhausted by the world
We've all been in such a big rush
We fail to see and enjoy the beauty that surround us

Enjoy it every chance you get
Enjoy it before you all regret
Enjoy it before the world gives you your death
Enjoy it while you still have your breath

Traffic.

POST TAKEN FROM: http://pringles08.livejournal.com/

    Today started with a me having to race with time and beating traffic.  The traffic seem to have gotten worst and worst.  I can't wait for them to finish the overpass they're constructing.  They said a few moths ago that by July 2008 the overpass would be ready to use, by the looks of it, I think it will take a miracle for them to be able to finish it this month. 

    Driving makes me angry especially when the traffic is so bad and you have to deal with rude drivers.  I, however, have learned to somehow adapt the ways of rough driving thanks to everything this City or Country has given me put up with.  Jeepney drivers who are the king of the roads, but ones they crash into you and they're at fault, all they can do is scratch they're head.  After that they'll give you a "pitty me" speech as they try to get off the hook easy with the damages and troubles caused... only in the Philippines.  Also two-lanes roads can easily be turned into a three or four-lane road anytime.  Motorcycles, oh you don't want me to get started on how they all just pop out on the side while your driving and all. Grrr.  Also there are those people who cross just about anywhere.  Even if there's a sky-walk nearby, they refuse to use it (due to laziness of climbing up I assume) and they'd rather endanger their lives crossing where no white parallel lines are painted (I am referring to the pedestrian if you still didn't get the clue)!  This whole driving thing makes me all stressed out and makes me feel/ look older than I ought to be.  As if school isn't giving me enough stress.  

    Anyways, this blog entry seems to be BAD enough, and my ramblings will most likely be pointless to most but I just wanted to get all those out and rant it away. Grrr.  These situations just got me all frustrated for the past few days.  Lucky enough, I know just the solution to avoid the morning traffic... waking up early!  Yes, I have to.  Annoying as it may be, at least I won't have to
drive like crazy and I can relax, I might also be able to save gas.

It'll be all good, soon... right?

La Mirada

POST TAKEN FROM: http://pringles08.livejournal.com/

A story I once began to write when I was in high school.  Lost my copy of it... but here I am, in attempts to re-write the story my high school classmates once loved, and I once dreamed of finishing to write.

(First attempts of this story goes way back to 3rd year high school, 2004.)

Inspired by the love that my classmate has for her boyfriend (now after 4 years or more, has become her ex-boyfriend).  The perfect girl, the obedient daughter, who later found herself in a hidden relationship with the boy.  Her principles and morals are now questioned and her loyalty tested.

==========================================================

La Mirada

    One sunny summer day, Jacky wakes up.  She goes over the window to greet the day ahead of her while stretching her arms wide open.  As she peers down her glass window, a huge moving truck caught her eyes.  She has heard about the next door house being sold already after the Johnson's moved out and transferred to Ethemia.  Jacky observed the cargo as it was being unloaded.  She sees two couples standing just at the side of the back opening of the truck as they watch their belongings being unloaded.  Everything they unloaded seemed to be the typical house particulars one would expect from a couple, until somethings were different.  A bunk bed with a blue mattress still in plastic was rid off the cargo, along with a small blue pony ride the kind that babies have, a ball, a baseball bat, a dart board, and a foosball table.  She then figured they had a little boy.

    Jacky then washed up her face and brushed her teeth.  She tied her hair up as to rid of the morning hair do and hurried down the stairs.  She grabbed and apple on the table and joined her father as he walks out to greet the new neighbors.   Bitting the apple she had one her hand, Jacky greets the couple with a smile.

"Hello there! We're the Loretto's." Jacky's father greeted, extending his hand as to offer the couple a handshake. "This is my daughter Jacky." He then quickly added.   "We're the Garcia's, we just moved here from Riverdale.  I was re-assigned by the company." "And we were lucky to have found this house for sale in such a lovely village." Mrs. Garcia added.  "I'm sure you'll love it here. It's a pretty nice neighborhood. Well, we'll leave you guys to do your unpacking and just give us a knock on the door if you need anything." My dad answered back.

    In the house, come breakfast time, "We should probably bring over some breakfast for the Garcia's, they probably can't prepare anything yet, with all their stuff still packed" my dad said while swallows a mouthful of rice and hotdogs.  "Yea, I'll bring them something over after I eat. Manang can you please prepare more hotdogs and some eggs so I can bring them over to the Garcia's.  And rice too, please." I yelled at Manang our house help who was still busy in the kitchen.  I shared to my dad "I think the Garcia's have a little boy.  I was hoping you'd allow me to ask them if I could baby-sit for them anytime they needed me to this summer."  I was not in it for the money, if they offered to pay that would be nice too, but I was just fond of kids.  It would also be like having a little brother, I am the only child after all.  After my mother gave birth to me, due to some complication she was taken away and gone.

To Her Who Left

POST TAKEN FROM: http://pringles08.livejournal.com/

February 2008

Like dead leaves on an autumn day
I find myself in great dismay
I lost you, I lost myself
Now no joy is ever felt

Like withered flowers,
Your love has gone
At first so beautiful, so pleasant
But now has left me longing

Like the dead you are gone
Your haunting presence left behind
All my love I have shown
Now I see why love is blind

My beloved, my friend
I loved you, truly and deeply
My beloved, my friend
You were never mine to begin with

=======================================================================

I made this for a friend.  We were to make poems about "love" and recite it at our Literature2 class.
My friend was heart broken during these times.  I placed myself in his shoes and was able to come
up with this on the spot.  I guess all the heavy emotions I started to feel for him (putting myself in
his place), kind of help me go through making this impromptu.  The title was by my friend who
recited/presented this in class, the one I was feeling for.

It was a sunny day at school and I had an hour break before class and I finished lunch early
that day.  

This was composed around early February, Valentine's/ Love month, what with the theme and all.

My Antique Love

POST TAKEN FROM: http://pringles08.livejournal.com/

06.26.2008

Old and gray-haired
I look at him smile
As I stare at his bright face and also smile back
Pictures in my head start to cloud

Way before, when we were young
Two of us together?
It was something I couldn't imagine
We got along quiet well
From good friends to best friends
And everything was swell

After sometime, somethings have changed
We found each other falling
Falling in love
And we both set our course
To a whirlwind romance

Up to this day
I'm still deeply in love
The man I vowed to love and cherish,
60 years after has passed,
And now I'm sure to say
This love's bound to last.


======================================================================

It was the first time I went in to my IT34 class, since I was enrolled into that class a week late.  I was sitting at the back and I was bored.  I just finished reading my book "Angle's Choice" and I had nothing to do.  I started to write and came up with this.  Inspired by my daydreaming that my boyfriend and I will grow old together.  The title was given by my seat mate.  He read my poem after I made it and I wasn't really used to people reading my work, so I asked him to do the honor of giving the title. haha. 

It's been a long time since I wrote poems, so I guess this ones not such a bad start.  I hope to do more post in the future.

so yea, I was bored and going through other people's multiply and bumped into this site... I went and I checked it out.  Things written below (which I copy pasted) were quite true.  Coincidence? 

You entered: Joanna Allison Sanchez Ang

There are 23 letters in your name.

Those 23 letters total to 91

There are 9 vowels and 14 consonants in your name.

 

What your first name means:

Your number is: 1

The characteristics of #1 are: Initiating action, pioneering, leading, independent, attaining, individual.

The expression or destiny for #1:

A number 1 Expression denotes the skilled executive with keen administrative capabilities. You must develop the capacity to be a fine leader, sales executive, or promoter. You have the tools to become an original person with a creative approach to problem solving, and a penchant for initiating action. Someone may have to follow behind you to handle the details, but you know how to get things going and make things happen. You have a good mind and the ability to use it for your advancement. Because of these factors, you have much potential for achievement and financial rewards. Frequently, this expression belongs to one running a business or striving to achieve a level of accomplishment on ones talents and efforts. You have little need for much supervision, preferring to act on your own with little restraint. You are both ambitious and determined. Self-confident and self-reliant must be yours, as you develop a strong unyielding will and the courage of your convictions.

Although you fear loneliness, you want to be left alone. You fear routine and being in a rut. You often jump the gun because you are afraid of being left behind.

The negative attributes of the 1 Expression are egotism and a self-centered approach to life. This is an aggressive number and if it is over-emphasized it is very hard to live with. You do not have to be overly aggressive to fulfill your destiny. The 1 has a natural instinct to dominate and to be the boss; adhering to the concept of being number One. Again, you do not have to dominate and destroy in order to lead and manage.

Highly analytical, you can see your way through all sorts of situations and generally have a clear understanding of the issues. You are a very honest, sincere, and conscientious individual.

The negative side of the 4 is rigid, stubborn and somewhat narrow-minded. There is a tendency to hide feelings, or to really not be aware of real feelings. Avoid being too rigid and stubborn in your thinking, and try to always see the big picture rather than becoming to involved with the detail. Don't be afraid to take a chance once in awhile.

Your Inner Dream number is: 6

An Inner Dream number of 6 means:

Jipney.

History 

(source: Wikipedia)

When American troops began to leave the Philippines at the end of World War II, hundreds of surplus jeeps were sold or given to local Filipinos.  Locals stripped down the jeeps to accommodate several passengers, added metal roofs for shade, and decorated the vehicles with vibrant colors and bright chrome hood ornaments.

The jeepney rapidly emerged as a popular and creative way to reestablish inexpensive public transportation began to place restrictions on their use.  Drivers now must have specialized licenses, which had been virtually destroyed duringWorld War II.  Recognizing the widespread use of these vehicles, the Philippine government, regular routes, and reasonably fixed fares. Due to recent fuel price increases the Metro Manila fixed fare has increased from 5 pesos to 7.50 pesos.

Personal Blog:

Early today, April 11, 2008, Friday, at around 9:30am, I, Joanna Allison S. Ang, at 18 years, 6 months, and 11 days of existence, was finally able to experience riding a jeepney alone. :] Something I just really had to blog about.

Daddy was to pick meeh up just a bit pass 9:30am.  What I didn't know, since I was only present yesterday, was that our Math35 class every Friday would only be for an hour, so we finished at 8:30am.  I texted my dad, and quite amazingly he said that if I didn't want to wait I could go ahead and ride a jeepney. :] hihi.

I went out of San Carlos Main Campus, crossed the street three times. :] I did a bit off walking to get to the jeepney stop.  When I reached the the jeepney stop, I stood on the shadow of the pole.  Quite a hot summer time, super!  I waited for a jeepney to stop in front of meeh.  I was quite shy to hail a jeepney to stop. hehe.  It took at least about four 06B jeepneys to pass by before one stopped in front of meeh.  I also did not want to go in the ones which were a bit full/ packed.  So I finally got into one jipney, colored blue, my favorite color.  Minimum fare was 6php. :] I prepared right amount of change which I got out from my cow jipney purse.  I was smyling while in the jipney so I had to cover my mouth with my hanky. hehe. x]  It was quite recently (the Leyte trip I had with the gang, the USC summer classes in Main Campus) when I just experienced new stuff. 

I was sitting opposite the driver's side, near the front passenger's seat.  I was self-composed ( or so it seemed, or so I felt ), with my book on my lap and my bag on top of it.  My stop was almost up.  I was preparing my voice (I cleared my throat) to prepare myself to speak to the driver.  My stop was there, my exact words to the driver was "Lugar lang nia, plete o, thank yooh." hihi.  I arrived about 9:45am. :]  It was a 15-minute trip, a trip I plan to take everyday from now on.  :] 

As soon as I got home, I text messaged my close friend informing them of my new experince.  Others were proud (princess,jade), others worried and concerned (elwin, anney, mama), while other (kyle) just laughed. x]  After that I slept.  Lunch around 2pm.  Around three dad brought meeh to skul.  Polsci group activity.  Dinner with elwin in main.  Off to Jobi jones to meet up for e4J.  McDo to eat again and then homebound. :]

That's all for now. :]

 
Maybe I'll see yooh in one of my jipney rides! ;]
