Temporary madness.

This is going to be very random because I'm feeling really crazy right now and it's killing me.

Because of my current madness, memorizing a few of Eminem's raps is now on my bucketlist. I've done Lose Yourself, so now I'm onto his rap in Love The Way You Lie with Rihanna. This is probably my weird way of coping up because frankly I just think I'm going mad. Anyway I think I'm 50% into memorizing the whole thing and I'm glad that I have something to cross off my bucket list.

And I said something about being excited for my photography class yesterday and I actually did enjoy it. We had the photoshoot in the Dark Room for our Light Painting concept. The photos are still not with me but I think I did really well considering it's the first time that I did that concept using the bulb and not the shutter settings. I've got to admit though, working with a gorgeous model is hard as f*ck. He's too handsome and too distracting--even if we're working with most of the lights off--it's hard to work with a straight mind. Sometimes I just wanted to tell him to sit down and just be gorgeous in one corner because it's hard to look at him in the camera without drooling. I've seriously got to do something on how to keep my flailing emotions in check whenever we have a model in our photoshoot. This is going to destroy me. And I swear if any of my classmates ever read my blog and find out my feels for the model, I'm going to die or combust into a million pieces of dust--or I'll just disappear.

Anyway, our homework for the week is continuing the Light Painting somewhere else. I'm thinking of doing it in the park and having many different colored lights so it gets crazier. The crazier it gets, the more I'll love doing it. That's probably gonna be my tramp-stamp on my works.

Oh gosh sometimes I make myself laugh...

Rainy Tuesday

I've been listening to Maroon 5's Overexposed album for a whole week already! I love every song, or at least the ones that aren't remixed. Don't get me wrong, I love remixes but when you have 4 or 5 remixes of one song in an album, sometimes it gets too overrated. Nonetheless, I love all the other songs! I swear sometimes I wonder why they made Payphone their front song when there are so many other wonderful songs inside, like, Wipe Your Eyes, Daylight and Beautiful Goodbye. But that wasn't what I was supposed to write. LOL.

Yesterday, our college decided to suspend classes at 1:30pm due to the heavy rains that poured all over the metro all day. Frankly, I thought CSB wouldn't suspend classes until after 3pm. Let's face it, this is CSB. They're usually the last one to announce anything. It didn't help that I was also feeling a bit hesitant to attend my night class yesterday because I still hadn't finished my 2DANIM plates, but either way, I really don't have any choice. I only have a little over 6 hours to finish 4 more plates for midterms. Luckily, they did suspend the class and we're all a little bit relieved that we still have at least 24 hours to finish our midterm plates.

But of course, since we already planned something for the Tuesday break beforehand, Tihn still pushed through with her birthday surprise for Jackie. She bought Bonchon for us to pig out on and after Jackie got to the condo, we ordered KFC and somebody went down to buy ice cream while the rest of us watched Zombieland. Talk about finishing my plates. Hah.

Eventually, everything has to end and we were all left to our midterm requirements again. Hey, I was able to finish my WEBDEV images just in time. That should count for something :))

Cousin Bonding Weekend.

My cousins and I have been around each other since we were born and it's just so crazy how we never get tired of each other. And as we grew older, we've also become each other's best friends. Everything is so cute. Once we're all together, it seems that everything that needs to matter, doesn't anymore and we're stuck in this hole that we can all go crazy in and it wouldn't even feel embarrassing because we're with each other.

This weekend is a little crazier because they made Kuya Paul and I stay until Tuesday morning. I only have a few clothes to use (I had to use Tara's clothes going back to Manila. Haha). Plus it's also the first time that Tackie's with us. He doesn't usually hang out with us (unless it's our end of the year reunion) because his dad's a diplomat and their family's staying god-knows-where right now in some part of the world. I think they're staying in Jakarta right now. Anyway so Tackie's with us and seriously that boy's so cute and aggressive. I want to pinch his cheeks! haha. But he had to leave on Sunday night because they have other things to do during the weekdays.

Anyway, it's suuuuuuuper cold in Cavite. I think it's at par with Baguio already. But even if it feels like negative-something-degrees already we still stayed outside the house until around night time just to talk, share stories and play games. It's fun to be just like that. Feel idle and just enjoy everything. My Aunt also revealed so many stuff about us when we were still babies! We we're so disgustingly cute LOL.

At one point yesterday my Aunt also shared that what Tara was to Bim today was what she was to Tito Bong (her older brother) before. Well she said that up til now she still likes making him buy things for her. Even if he hates it, he still spoils her most of the time. It's so cute. So I had to tease Kuya Paul that he should graduate already so I could request stuff from him already (well bigger things than hamburgers haha). From that, I realized that even if I'm an only child, my Kuya Paul and Kuya Philippe do spoil me a lot. Even with little things like hamburgers and t-shirts and ice creams. Haha. I like this life :))

Any, I should get back to working on my finals requirements. I have to finish everything this week! Huuuuuuuul.

#9

It's too early for me to think of a title.

Anyway, it's been awhile and frankly I should be finishing my homework for DESNCON which I've been putting off for quite awhile now. I slept it off (again) last night because this huge headache came over me and I feel that even if I tried to do it I would just end up with a crappy work so I just went to bed early

Now I'm up at 5:30am--which I haven't done in a very long time--thinking of milk carton designs and bus wrap advertisement designs.

I've been feeling kind of apathetic to everything lately, too. I don't know why but I think I've been focusing too much on school that I'm failing to notice the other things. Not that I want to but I just feel that they really don't need my attention right now. I know it's wrong. Aaaah, sorry :(

Also, not that it bothers me but the most unexpected people liked my concept photography shot. I mean people from highs chool, the ones that I've never really been close with and the people that I haven't talked to in a really long while, liked it. I like the feeling that somehow it connects us again. Like I could just come up to them again and ask, "Hey, what's up?" Like how it used to be. Well, maybe, maybe not. But it never hurts to try. And again, I like this feeling.

I should really start with my designs.

Cavite getaway.

My Aunt's house in Cavite is probably my family's most favorite place in the world. We go there whenever there are special occasions to celebrate or when we just feel like having a marathon weekend or even both. It's a residential-slash-resort-slash-hangout place that's perfect for those who like nature and fun altogether. It's so beautiful, peaceful and it's like my own little pocket Baguio. Plus it's too cozy there that sometimes I don't even wanna go home anymore! I wanna stay and bum around in that place forever. *get kicked by mom*

How can you not love this place?

So we went spent Christmas Day there to celebrate with my Dad's side of the family and as usual, we pigged out, marathon-ed My Fair Lady, played a lot of iphone games and webcam-ed with people. And Kuya Philippe is actually with us this time! He's usually with his girl or at work so we don't really see him that much. To be honest I'm really happy that he was there. I'm so used to being his baby-girl in the past, that I actually missed him, our bickering and his childishness. 

We also skyped with Tita Mimi who's now living in Ireland using Philippe's iPad. It was so chaotic and so crazy because everybody wanted to talk to her. The iPad kept on transferring from one hand to another and when I was able to hold on to the iPad with my right hand, I also had a kiat-kiat (Mandarin Orange) on my other hand because I was going to eat it... and when I was going to already, I realized that I'm not holding on to anything anymore. I looked at Kuya Paul and he was eating the whole orange already! >< crazy.

Our lovely (and crazy) parents! 

How was your Christmas? :)

Happy Christmas Eve!

Hi! It's Christmas eve today in my timezone and everyone in our Laguna house is pretty much gearing up for tonight's Noche Buena. Yumm!

So today I jogged around the neighborhood and finished the last episode of my American Horror Story marathon also emailed a few more media partners for our event and pimped this new blog. I would help them in the kitchen but god knows how I fail very much with knives. Even my family's scared to risk it. LOL. I think I'd rather be in-charge of the food tasting and music :))

And yeah, I made a new blogger, AGAIN. I kinda neglected blogging ever since my previous school terms became very demanding and I ended up forgetting my password for the other one :( Anyway as soon as this one gets launched, I'll try to export my older entries from the other blogger one of these days, once I'm able to retrieve my password there. Haha.

Anyway, I hope you guys would have a lovely Christmas! Spend it with your family and stop noonting in front of your computer/laptop. Christmas is the time for bonding with your family, friends and relatives! Enjoy this day with a nice glass of wine or soda :))
