malls, malls, and malls....

waah! i'm not stuck at home anymore! last week, i spent each day on different malls.

first stop: SM North Edsa. i don't know how many times i've been there. hundreds of times maybe? hahaha! why not? my high school's just behind it so almost every day, back then, i go there. i think i've memorized each and every corner of that mall. well, i've lots of memories there especially in Burger King where my friends and i used to hang out. i remember, we always order blazing burger meal and one refillable drink which we all share. enough of my sentiments.

next stop: Gateway. i used to live a street across gateway but before it was finished, we moved to tandang sora. when we were still staying in cubao, only taco bell was open so that's where my dad and i ate on our first time in gateway. though we're not living in cubao anymore, i go to gateway very often especially during sales. i always see many of my elementary classmates there coz the school's just across gateway. oh well.

last stop: Mall of Asia. at first, my mom and i were choosing whether we'll go to MOA or Glorietta. then finally, we decided to go to MOA. on our way there, we passed through ayala ave. where i saw a sign saying "welcome to baranggay urdaneta." i remembered, that's where chris tiu's living and he's the SK chairman there! and so i looked down the sign and i've seen his name. there were also other tiu's and alandy dy's on the sign, maybe they're his relatives. anyway, we just strolled around MOA. i bought a jumper skirt in penshoppe then we ate in yellow cab. we walked around again and i saw chris' picture on one of the stores [Eiko]! i really miss seeing him play basketball! well, in three months time i will! hahaha!

yeah, malls are great, it's putting me off my house. it's quite tiring to go around though. oh well, i'll be having mall tours around manila so see yah there! hahaha!

my day out of home. destination : greenhills

today, my aunt and i went shopping on Greenhills. we went out around 2pm when the sun is at its highest so it was really really hot! i wanted to buy a pair of shorts and a mini dress but i'm not sure if it'll fit me so i didn't. i ended up buying two pairs of cute flats, all for 580 pesos! wooh, it's super bargain! after an hour and a half, we decided to eat.


the restaurants were fully packed so we just ate in KFC. upon entering we sighted some teen stars, the Roco twins and another guy who goes out on tv [i don't remember his name]. after we ate, i sighted cello's on the other side of the road. i didn't know they had a branch in Greenhills. we went there and buy half a dozen of yummy doughnuts which is what i'm munching on right now!


haay... shopping is really good but it's quite tiring coz it's so hot and there's so many people [plus many money is needed! hahaha!]. what i want is to swim on the beach! it's burning hot here in manila and all i can do is to take a bath three times a day! hahaha!

my UBER boring summer!!!!!!!!!!!

waah!!! my summer is uber boring! i've nothing to do but stay home. most of my friends are taking summer classes, leaving me alone. hehehe. actually, i was supposed to take summer classes [math 53] but i chose not to. why? three straight hours of math, five days a week? i can't take that!so here i am, stucked here at my room, either watching dvds or surfing the net. well, i'm planning to roam around malls in metro manila with my cousins, just to say that i have something to do this summer. hope it would be quite fun!


to throw away my boredom as of the moment, i'm trying to revive my talent in playing the piano. i stopped having piano lessons when i was in grade 6, but every now and then i practice. piano is the only music instrument i know how to play so i better be good in it! i want to learn to play the guitar and violin as well but i don't have much time and money!hahaha! i'm also doing a self-study of different languages namely: deutsch, french, korean, mandarin, japanese. i got a good grip on deutsch coz i attended german 10 class last sem. on french, i'm just starting off with the proper pronunciation. the oriental languages i want to study because of my fascination in korean, taiwanese, and japanese dramas. i want to be able to watch it without having to read the subtitles! hahaha! but if you think of it, being able to speak many languages is uber cool! tschus!

gosh! i didn't make any post during the whole month of march! i was so freakin' busy with my final exams [specifically in math 17] and school projects! oh well, i'll just tell the highlights of this month.

my march started off with kathleen's debut. i went there of course with my two very best friends tricia and rachelle. we were a bit late for the party but we arrived just in time for eating! hahaha! then the formal part of the party started, the 18 gifts. our barkada was called to give our gift but no one dared to say something coz we were too shy. thanks to anna g., who was good enough to say somethin'. then the 18 candles. it was only rachelle who's in the 18 candles. she didn't prepare any message so she was quite nervous plus she needs to go to the cr. she thought that after saying her message she could come back to our table then go the cr. but she's wrong coz she has to wait till the last one speaks. so in our table we were laughing coz were thinking of rachelle's need to go to the cr! anyway, the 18 roses were a blast. it was really cool! so after the party, we went back to my home! oh yes, tricia and rachelle had a sleepover in our house! well, we talked and talked and watched a movie until we fall asleep [around 3:00am]. we woke up 4:30am coz rachelle and i will go to our geog1 fieldtrip.

next thing was our geog 1 fieldtrip. we went to subic and went trekking through the forest. yeah, it was really exhausting! the sun was on its highest so it was really hot! but i had fun coz while walking i was able to make new friends and there was no boring time coz all the while, we were talking and laughing! the best part of course was the homeward bound! at the back, they were playing mind boggling games [not really] like black magic and things like that. then the topic was changed to ghost stories. their stories would really give you goosebumps! the way they told it was really frightening! most of the stories were about the supernatural things in UP that made me quite scared on going around there late! hahaha! the specific story that struck me was the story of the cadaver in the vanguard! i won't tell it anymore coz it makes me more frightened! awoohhhh! hehehe!

after that, projects and exams were overflowing! i was always sleeping past 12 am doing school stuff or studying for an exam. good thing my hard work paid off. i passed all the exams in math 17 and hopefully i'll get a high grade. in my chem1 i got 1.5 and in my geog1 i got a whooping 1.0! that's my first uno in UP courtesy of sir saguin! i'm just waiting for my other grades to come out and hopefully i'll maintain my status so that i'll be able to shift to ECE.

time really flies fast. i just finished a year in college. i met many new friends. i experienced many new things.

i remember, just last year, this same date [april 1], we had our graduation ball. then now we're about to have our second year in college. i really miss high school especially my friends. yeah, i met new friends in college but i think high school friends are different. you're really tightly bonded coz you stay with each other in one classroom all day long unlike in college every semester you got new classmates so you don't get to know each other much. oh well, enough of my sentiments.

summer is coming! it's time to go to the beach! but i have no time coz i'll be having summer classes [math 53]! summer classes in math 53 equals bloody summer! just joking! well maybe i'll find a way to make it fun?! rachelle is sharing my burden with math summer classes naman eh! so that makes math building the place to be this summer! enjoy!
