i haven't blogged for days, and it felt like ages. i've been meaning to write, really. but every time i would think about it, i start to doze off. (*yawn* just like now. see?) i intend to write a really long update here, but i'm not really sure if i can. well, i guess i'll just have to see how far i can go, XD
(btw, i can't edit this right now, so pardon the typos and stuff.:D)
(i've written something random 6 days ago, and that doesn't count. XD)
January 18, 2009 a sunday. i thought that, that day would never come. XD i was so sure that it won't, but then it came. "jammie-chan" came. :D i would like to introduce to you, the fulfillment of my toma-lappy-toppy dream...:D
this is a photo that i took just now, and of course, my one and only graces the desktop. :D
side comment: the wallpaper and the slideshow actually are more of a distraction while working, coz i always end up staring and sighing. XD
january 19, 20... 20, tuesday, we decided to have a thesis camp at pat's. kam joined in but was only there to rest. thelma was there to "police" us.
when we got there, it was around 9pm after our PHC class, i received a text that i was supposed to meet someone that very moment at a place at the other side of the university. since i was the one that asked for the meeting, i was obliged to go of course. so i left the dorm, (since it was a dorm, it had a curfew @ 10pm. i had to return by then. and the dapitan gate of the university which was the closest access gate to the dorm, closes at around the same time)
i walked the almost deserted university to my meeting. there were very few lights on, but it wasn't very scary to walk alone YET. after my meeting i was in a hurry to get back to the dorm or else i'll be left out. luckily, the espana gate was still open so i was able to enter the university on my way back. there was a fireworks display at some street at the back of the university, so at first it was still really nice to cross the dark field alone. but when the foreworks was over, i found myself standing at the middle of the dark field, all alone, and when i looked back, it was pitch black. so i moved along fast. after making it through the field, i was nearing the main building, a very old building with a very good number of ghost story to boot. it was really dark, all post have been turned off and i can't make out any figure of any security guard around the area. i started to feel panicky.
i looked back from where i came from and i regretted it reight then and there coz it was pitch black and it gave me the eerie feeling. i remembered the nightmares i used to have. all alone in a very big open place with big old buildings all around, and it was pitch black. and the twilight zone theme started to play on my head.
when i reached the block i was supposed to take a turn to reach the dapitan gate, it was DARK. hellishly freakishly dark. it was a street in between the main buiding a bunch of big trees and a park. there was a post lamp at the end of the street so i just focused looking at it while walking. when i finally reached the dapitan gate, guess what, it was locked. damn. it really crept me out. i turned my back to my surprise there was another student from the same college as me. i didn't notice so i just ignored him while he was panicking.:D but i wanted to get out of the campus already coz i received a text that the dorm was closing, so i took a run for it. surprisingly, the other student ran after me as well. i wanted to laugh if only i wasn't going to walk that scary dark street again. so i decided to call on thelma, so at least i won't feel all alone anymore. i took another route back to the dorm afterwards.
maybe it was due to the exhaustion from running, that i fell asleep as soon as i hit the mattress while we were watching boys before flowers. i began to wake up when i felt the mattress being moved aside. i saw that kam and pat were trying to move me aside. but i was so sleepy to care.:D then after a few minutes, i started to hear really loud laughing, when i looked up, i saw kam and pat dancing to a jonas brothers song. it was their single for their japanese special edition album i think.
we just watched through the night and at around 3am, i decided it was time to work. kam and pat to join in at around 4-4:30? not much had been done really. they all slept at around 5:30, and i can't remember what i was doing while they were sleeping. lol memory gap. XD
21,22,23,24... 24,saturday, i went to the university to talk to our college dean about a follow up on our completion form. coz if i failed to have it encoded on time, i won't be able to graduate, but he wasn't there. and oh, before that, i also went around recto to look for a cheaper place to have my thesis materials printed. after those two, i decided to also look around SM san lazaro, i bought my sister a book after reading for half an hour at booksale.
25,26,27- i had my frequency chart checked, done it with flying colors. XD and oh! oh! during the morning, i saw Video[Scope} at channel[v] and it was featuring RAIN! hahaha! Love him.:D
later that afternoon, we also had our PHC report about our previous project, our topic was about divisoria, we made some ads and compiled some consumer reviews. we were really unprepared with the report. hahaha... nobody really cared about the report anyway, so we thought what the heck.:D
when the reporting started, we found that our professor was asking almost the silliest of things. well, not actually silly, we only found it that way coz we were already pissed off over the fact that we had to do the reporting when we had a gazillion of things to do for our thesis. our group was not really sure what to say, coz our professor was asking the other groups about history and area locations, and we honestly don't have those on our material.:D but oh, we had the map, but we honestly can't explain the area location.
i spoke half the duration of the report. good thing i was able to read a very short history about divi and i was bestowed with a gift of making things up on the spot.:D haha. i was determined to answer each and every question that will be thrown to us.
[i cut class that night, after our report, we ditched the remaining half of the class so i never really heard our professor's overall feedback abour our report, but what i heard the next day, ours was the well-presented report that night. who would have thought. hahaha]
28, watched mei-chan no shitsuji!!! gaaaaah! i want i want i want i want hiro as my shitsuji!!! hotnessss!!! then, i went to divisoria with my tita to look for collateral materials. we were able to go around the area twice! the first thing i bough were these cuties...
they are erasers, i gave kam the big strawberry one, and thelma the sundae cone, coz they like cute lil things as well.:D
29, 30. 30, friday, today. not one of our professors came to class, so we were all able to go home early. it felt really weird, it has been really long since i last came home during the afternoon, coz i usually leave school at around 8pm or 9pm.
during our first class while were waiting for atty. Ed, a plan for a roadtrip surfaced. the pit stops were still undecided but what was sure was that the final stop was Ilocos. definitely all residence of our classmates along the way will be a pit stop. la uniion, tarlac, baguio.. hahaha! hopefully this will be after graduation.
i bought 2 dvds on my way home, bride wars and quarantine. i already watched bride wars and it was a laugh. really nice movie. i imagined how it will be on my own wedding. 8->
i recalled my conversation with joza this afternoon, about what jobs we want after graduation, and i, without thinking, answered, events organizer for weddings. that came out of blue. so sudden i was even shocked with myself. then i added, if it was a work in the agency, i'd really prefer the AE job. i want that kind of jib coz i know the AE is always the nightmare for the creatives, but i want to change that since i am also well trained in creatives, i'll know how to handle them much more better. we can create better ads and a better working relationship.:D
when i watched bride wars, i think the narrator was the wedding organizer, then i imagined the feeling of watching those happy bride and groom and their family during that special day. then i also want to be able to capture those moments, so i also thought of going back to my photography.
could i possibly be any of those things i want?
or is having all these dreams just too much?
AND of course all these are for my family AND going to japan.:D
anybody knows a job in japan in line with all the things i just said? hehe... i want to be somehow closer to toma. just imagining that he and i are on the same city. *sigh*
it isn't a secret to anyone that i still don't have a first kiss right, so i was still hovering over this idea, dream actually, that i can have toma for that. hahahahaha!!!!! i now it sounds silly! but then..... i still want that.:D whattya think? will i ever have my first kiss if i keep on aiming for that to happen?:D
anyway, to wrap things up here's a rundown of my to-do list:
*final collats design revision
*printing
*thesis book
*PHC report
i can't think of anything else. XD
ja for now!
ciao!
