Super Short Hiatus

It’s my finals from tomorrow until Friday, so I won’t be here to read your blogs or comment on them either. Duh. :lol:

I will be back come Monday, when all the chaos is done. In addition to my finals, I have to write an article for the school newspaper about a choral recitation I didn’t see. :S

In addition to my normal chaos, our phone is not working again. So, to me, who uses dial-up internet connection, that’s a whole lotta hell! I am currently at Netopia, an internet cafe. I had to download stuff needed for our NSTP project. My classmates emailed them to me last night.

I’ve so much things to do! Good luck to me!

Have a great rest of the week!

P.S.
Despair.nu members, I might not be able to comment on your blogs for maybe, 3-4 days, due to lack of internet access at home, and I have to study for finals. So, please bear with me.

I Realized I’m Not Alone

Just thinking about school is giving me a headache! Okay, well, maybe I am slightly exaggerating, but, really, it’s so stressful just thinking about the things that I have to do. Next week is hell week. Final exams are scheduled on the 19th to the 21st. Besides cramming for all my subjects, I have to squeeze in this project for our NSTP subject. We have to go our local baranggay, talk to the baranggay captain and send out surveys to the community. Of course, we have to make a written report for that, which, in this case, I know for sure that I will be the one to do alone, unless, someone offers help. Sigh… I am so stressed out! Time is running out and I want to pull my hair out! Argh!

Anyway, yesterday, Ryan and I went out to watch The Guardian. It stars Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher. The movie, for me, was kind of slow. I mean, the turn of events were, in a way, a bit boring. It’s an emotional film. But overall, it’s not a waste of money and time. I believe, the main purpose of the movie is to touch hearts, and it did touch mine. So that’s what we did last night after having dinner at Chef ‘d Angelo.

Today, he picked me up from school and we enjoyed a movie marathon. We started with Once Upon a Time in Mexico (Banderas, Depp, Hayek). Then we ate lunch with my sisters, Juvy and Chicka. After lunch, we continued the marathon with Animatrix, which made me understand The Matrix trilogy more; we ended the marathon with The Matrix. I love the trilogy, so watching it again is cool with me.

Dinner was prepared by my mom. She cooked vegetables. It was good. After dinner, Ryan and my mom were still sitting in the dining area, so my mom started chatting away with Ryan. I even felt that he was trapped because when my mom starts to talk, there’s no stopping her. Hahaha! After an hour of chat with my mom, we hooked up his iPod to my computer and added some new songs. I asked him if he felt trapped with my mom, he said he actually enjoyed talking to her. Well, I notice how he really responds to my mom and he really does seem interested. He’s such a doll!

When I tell him that I am so stressed out from all the things I had to do for school, he just never stops telling me that I can do it, and he believes in my abilities. It’s been a long time since someone really put their money on me, metaphorically speaking. I used to just stand alone, absorbing all the worries and pressure by myself. I didn’t have a sponge that’d do it for me. Now, I do have someone. I guess, I never really realized it until now. I am glad he came.

Perfect Day

Today is one of those perfect days. Yes, I am in love. Mushy 24/7 :kiss: Eek! 8O

I woke up at 10am, excited, finally it’s Sunday. I’d get to meet with Ryan. Sunday is Ryan day. Well, not anymore Sunday, because his off days are moved to Thursday-Friday. Anyway, I was getting ready to go to our meeting place when he called, saying “We can’t meet. My aunt didn’t leave my money. Can we just hang out here at home?” But of course, I didn’t want to ruin the plan. I called him up again and told him that our plan would still push through, that he just had to show up and not worry about anything.

An hour later, we’re at Robinson’s Galleria. I text messaged my friend from Movie World and told him we’re there. He met us near Burger King. Since he works there, he gave us two movie passes. So that solves the money ish for our movie money. Yay! Connections, connections! We went to Cinema 5 and had the security guard stamp us on our arms. We had to eat lunch first.

Our best choice was Teriyaki Boy. We were so stuffed after eating so we just walked inside the mall and did window shopping. After walking for an hour, we decided to go to an internet cafe and check our emails, since the movie wouldn’t start for another hour and 40mins. My friend, Dyan, met with us there.

At 3pm, we headed to Tom’s World and let Ryan play some arcade games while Dyan and I just talked and talked, catching up. By 3:30pm, we headed to the cinema, found good seats smacked down the middle for good viewing. We watched The Departed, starring Jack Nicholson, Mark Walhberg, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Alec Baldwin and Martin Sheen. Can I just say that the movie rocks? Man, I loved it! It is actually the remake of the Chinese film “Internal Affairs”. Hollywood bought the copyright of the film, just like they did “The Ring”. The star studded cast was a definite bonus. I love Mark Walhberg in films, and Leo was exceptional here. Jack Nicholson, as always, great job! If you haven’t seen it, go watch it! Worth every penny!

After the movie, we met up with Glenn, Ryan’s friend, who we introduced to my friend, Dyan a few weeks back. We heard mass at the EDSA Shrine. After the mass, we ate at Burger King because we’re all hungry! Then we headed to Gloria Jean’s. Dyan and I bought Mint Chocolate Bomb, our mutual favorites. Yum! :yum: While the boys went to a cellphone shop to charge Glenn’s phone, Dyan and I talked some more. You see, Glenn actually likes her. Of course, Dyan doesn’t want to rush into another relationship since her last one did something bad to her. So it’s kind of hard for her to just love again. Well, I just hope she’ll be happy with someone who loves her so deeply soon.

The night ended at 10:10pm. Ryan accompanied me home. Sad, I am. I am looking forward to see him on Thursday. He said he’s got a surprise for me. I wonder what it is… Hmm… He didn’t give me a clue! Pfft.. I guess, I’ll just have to wait!
