- you would be insomniac. i have our bedroom all by myself and for two nights, i cannot sleep until 3 am! gawd! i am just used of sleeping with my siblings... hoohoohoo!
- you would be addicted to asianovelas. i cannot keep my eyes off the tv screen. kung pwede nga lang maligo sa harap ng tv, gagawin ko. ha-ha! i just cannot get over the sweet moments and scenes. such shows , i consider modern fairytales, yes.
- you would busy yourself with menu planning. since my momma is away and no one's gonna cook, i have to take the responsibility in the kitchen. i cannot ask the maid to cook cos she's busy with other household whatevers.
- you would find yourself visiting unusual websites. last night, i read things on wikipedia even if it is really not my hobby. i also visted manga university because i wanna learn how to draw the manga style. nagpapakadalubhasa... weird, right?
- you would have no other choice but do house chores. since i have just finished the asian romantic comedy i was watching, there is NADA to do but do good deeds and help in cleaning the house. cool? i don't know man.
hahaha! i don't know if this is worth blogging... I JUST HAVE NOTHING TO DO AND AM BORED TO DEATH!!!

boo-hoo-hoo for the summer
yeah, it is happening again. my family would, for the third summer, leave me alone. boo-hoo-hoo! they will go to saudi arabia without me! but yes, i have to understand. we have our summer duty so i cannot go with them and since i don't wanna be selfish, i have to let them fly to the land where everybody is prohibited to eat pork and is required to pray six times a day.
i just miss arabia. it may not be a country full of beautiful sceneries and breathtaking places but being there just feels sooo... yeah, good life! it is a country where social life starts at night because when you go out with the sun still shining, you will feel like you're on a gigantic toaster. when you go out in the morning, malls are closed and most women are inside their apartments because they are not allowed to work (now, that's the good life i am talking about. ha-ha!). i miss mall-hopping every night. literally...mall- hopping because in almost every street of jeddah, saudi arabia there is a mall erected or is being erected. people there don't know how to save. believe me.when you enter a grocery, you can see families pushing three carts or more. well, it is reasonable though, because supplies there are cheap. i miss eating shawarma and arabic rice and chicken...
aww... maybe after 3 years of not having summer vacation in arabia, i miss everything about it and if i continue, this post will be an unending list of what i love about the holy land of the muslims.
now i realize, how sad it is to be here alone. to survive, i must have a prestigious plan of how to have a blasting summer. and since my sister is working, the rest is in saudi, me alone... maybe house party is a lovely idea *evil laugh* ciao!

suddenly, unexpectedly
vacation, vacation. no homeworks, projects or papers. it's like everyday is POET's day (Piss Off Early Tomorrow's Saturday). vacation life is all but a bum's dream.
since it's nothing-to-do time, i just sleep like a lazy dog and read like a genius on every single magazine in our home. yesterday, i was reading a back issue of reader's digest and i came across an article about love then suddenly, unexpectedly, i remembered my religion class. as in, "the" last religion class of my college life (yes, it must have the "the", because it's like something important. haha!) . our last rel ed subject was about marriage so we were talking about love and commitment and everything about relationships for the whole second semester. our last topic was 'what really is love?'. and up to now, i don't like the topic. why? because it's just unexplainable.
my professor gave us a hand-out that served as a guide. and on that hand-out, the author said that love is not a:
1. feeling
2. falling in love
3. myth
4. so on and so forth (others that are not mudane to our everyday life)
yeah, i accept the author's opinion about it. love is not blah- blah- blah because love is blah- blah. but, if love is not the ta-ta-ta as what he stated, what really is love? love is an abstract noun that can never be quantified or defined as whatever by whoever. love has different definiton for each and every person.
so what's my point? the topic 'what is love?' must be eliminated in every teacher's lesson plan. because it is just unexplainable. and it would just be an unending debate. i just have one sure thing about love- it is GOD and what He has for us.
hahaha! i'm so weird. i don't wanna think about school yet i'm blogging about it. maybe when you have nothing to do, you just remember about the things you are used to do... like school. LOL ^^
a surprise for someone. now, this is love... for us.

because i'm a loser
back then, i was not really fond of watching movies so i was one of those freaking losers. it is only when i started college that i had the chance to go to movie houses whenever i wanted to and had the interest to watch HBO, star movies or cinemax. but then i still cannot relate whenever they talk about films... the ones during my elementary to high school days.
one lazy afternoon when we were having our duty at a health center, we started talking about the greatest films there is. they were like "oo, the best yang movie na yan!", "ang hot ng bida don.", "ang panget nung ending e.." and i was like "sino ba bida dun?", "about san yun?", "huh?!". my groupmates were really amazed that i have no idea of 95% of the movies we were talking about so they decided to make me a list. A list that contains the coolest/ greatest/ hottest/ most touching/ whatever-you-want-to-call-it movies i still haven't watched.
MOVIES I NEED TO WATCH BEFORE I DIE:
- Lord of the Rings trilogy
- Noting Hill
- Serendipity
- Gladiator
- Matrix Trilogy
- Any Rocky movie except 5
- Saving private ryan
- Dawn of the Dead
- Saw 1
- The Guardian
- E.T.
- Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny
- The Bachelor
- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
- V for Vendetta
- My Bestfriend's wedding
- Jerr McGuirre
- Closer
- Awake
- Dazed and Confused
- Sixteen Candles
- Never Back Down
- The Godfather
- American Gangster
- Deja Vu
- Vantage Point
- The Island
- Rockstar
- The Exorcist: Director's cut
- Constantine
- The Prestige
- Fever Pitch
- The Terminal
- It
- Face off
- Pineapple Express
- Juno
- Stomp the Yard
- You Got Served
- Superbad
- License to Wed
- Sweeney Todd: Demon BArber of Fleet street
I was able to watch 4 of them (the ones in orange)... 39 more to go! they gave such a dramatic title so i wanna change it to MOVIES I HAVE TO WATCH BEFORE THE SUMMER ENDS. i hope i can meet my goal. so now my first task is to borrow dvd's from everyone. toodles! :)

my simple dreams...
summer is here and summer jobs are everywhere. ever since i was a little kid, i dream of having something to do during summer aside from sleeping til noon, watching TV til it explodes and reading pocketbooks til my eyes hurt. i wanna earn extra money so i can have something to spend. too bad i still cannot fulfill that dream of mine because i have classes from april to may. but if you would ask me, i would love to spend my summer as a...
McDONALD'S CREW- i know it's hard and i know it's tiring and that's why i like it. i wanna experience the toxcity behind the counter of our favorite fastfood. i wonder how they make cheeseburgers and what's the secret why people love it so much. i want to feel the pressure in dealing with a demanding, out-of-the-reason customer. i want to wear that cute uniform and annoying hairnet.
TOURIST GUIDE- i want to go to places i haven't been to like, top of the list, baguio. i can read all the necessary information and study all about our country's famous spots because i know in return, it's going to be a lot of fun.
BARISTA- do i need to explain? it just seems fun to be one. hahaha! plus the free coffee. coffee= caffeine= me.
TEACHER- i want to teach street children. i want to teach them how to read, write and draw. i can be with them all day! it's not everyday that i see grateful smiles of children so spending a summer helping the unfortunate ones can be cool too.
RIDE OPERATOR- ... at enchanted kingdom. how cool is it to test the rides every morning? i wanna experience that. haha! even though i am afraid of riding the roller coaster. and yeah, i just think it's a happy thing to see families, group of friends and couples having their time at the amusement park.
if ever i would have the chance, i will- for sure- grab the opportunity and be one of those listed above. summer does not mean being a bum, right? have a blasting summer ahead! ^^
