reggae fever.. wala lang! / Tuesday, April 25, 2006


im sooo excited for the reggae party!!! i've been asking my friends nice reggae beats so i can download 'em in Limewire. so far I've downloaded the songs from the soundtrack album of 50 First Dates and some other 311 songs.. they're nice.. reggae songs make me lightheaded and make me think of the beach.. hahh... *imagining* hahaha! shet..

nakakainggit! marc's planning to go to vigan! next week! waa.. i wanna come.. :( gusto ko sila i-tour.. sa church, sa plaza, sa burnayan, sa crisologo... its too bad i can't come.. meron din kasing sportsfest on the 29th.. shux.. :(

last night, after practice, LJ and JP brought us a huge box of Brooklyn Pizza and Tep provided us with tortilla chips and spinach dip! yum! grabe, food trip! and when all the food was currently being digested in our stomachs, laugh trip naman!

cha, tep and i were talkin and laughin bout "how we got our blessings" haha! *wink* basta yun na yun.. the boys at first couldn't comprehend what we were sayin until we gave out clues, haha, kulit talaga nila! we also kept on teasing ino as 'da cat'.. yes 'da cat' who smells food as far as a mile away! hahaha! di nila maintindihan kung gutom daw ba kami o busog na cause we we're all making fun of each other and laughing so hard like idiots.. nahaluan daw ba ng drugs yung pizza?! jp put white powdery substances daw in the pizza..yung dapat daw sinisinghot! then someone said it was tawas!! yun daw pala yung reason kung bakit kami nagkakaganon! hahaha! and we were joking that the dip for the tortilla chips was loaded with marijuana leaves and not spinach leaves.. hehehe! laugh trip.. hayy.. i just love laughing my guts out! :D

we finished almost half of our some-sort-of-a-reggae dance last night! ka-elibs talaga si jason sumayaw! :)

excuse me while i download and search more reggae vibes from limewire.. hehe..

ttfn. tatah for now! ;P

reklamo reklamo / Saturday, April 22, 2006


weeeeee they liked my creations! hehehe!

sadly, i wasn't able to burn a hardcopy of it in DVD format! shiyet.. kaninang umaga pa ako nagagahol para malipat ko sa kabilang mac yung lecheng file na yun in order for me to burn it into a dvd cd.. i've tried everything.. marc even volunteered to let me send it to him through ym and send it back to me using the other mac.. but noo! the stupid ym for mac won't let do so! so so so.. we tried putting it in youtube BUT i can't cause it has a limit of 100 MB and 10 mins. of video only! the file is 1.3 GB big! then.. i gave up. hahaha! de, my dad bought a couple of DVD-Rs but there wasnt much time for me to do that cause i had to go to a meeting for the sportsfest..

as useless, the meeting was magulo again.. but not as chaotic as the previous one we had at the park! grabe yun.. kulang na lang magmurahan.. heheheh! at least eto mejo nagkakasundo na kame.. yun nga lng naffeel ko pa din yung pressure ng responsibilty sakin at kay tep..

swerte ni cha nakapag galera pa sya.. hayy sna ako din!

umikot ulit kami kanina to collect the pieces of paper we gave out the other night for the enlistment of partiicipants in the sportsfest.. hay nko hndi naman kami masyadong pinapagod ng mga homeowners dito dahil puro ang sagot nila samin is either NO WE'RE NOT JOINING or CAN YOU JUST COME BACK TOMORROW? shiyet.. we went through all that trouble for nothing.. well maybe meron ding silbi, others were willing to participate.. ahh ewan bahala na on 29!

tama si masis eh.. sana wala nang sportsfest, party na lang, well meron din cgro pero hndi ganon kabongga! sana one day event lang, then party yun na! parang sa school, konting games lang and thats it!everythings done by 12pm.. dont they realize na nakakapagod yung 3-day family olympics?? sheez..

anyway what's been talked about and written down must be done. hay! so tedious..so stressing..so not my definition of vacation.

my reklamos, bow. deal with em.

*di kami nagbelly dancing today.. aww.. wahahaha!

nakatatamad / Thursday, April 20, 2006


i just wanna go bellydance the night away! hahaha!

promise, belly dancing is soo much fun.

TODAY, guess what, i finished all five movies/slideshows! and ginawa kong pa-DVD style! hehe.. thing is wala akong DVD CD kaya i still can't burn a copy.. rather toast! *in mac, they refer to burning a cd as 'toast'ing a cd* anyhu.. iDVD is soo neeaat, naaaliw nga ako kanina eh, im sooper excited to play it for everyone's eyes to see! mwehehe! my mum saw it kanina, i let her view the whole thing, ganda daw! there are some parts kasi na nakakatawa na yung pic, ginawa ko pa lalong maskatawatawa! hehee!

hayyyy nakakatamad na yung sportsfest parang i wanna backout.. can i just do movies and belly dance? huwahahaha!

repeat after me. belly dancing is so much fun.

heck! i wanna do it daily (for excersice purposes)! i even downloaded the song we're going to use for our dance, mundian! haha! there's just one thing i don't like about belly dancing... THE FRIGGIN COSTUME! i don't wana wear a sparklin, blingin bra in front of a crowd?!?! oh please spare me from exposing my huge tummy! waahahaha!

*question* if im gonna do this for a whole month will i be as sexy as j.lo??

dream on diana!

***i'm diggin' ll cool j's (featuring j.lo) CONTROL MYSELF right now.. and i now can't control myself from dancing whenever i hear that song. me also likey likey corinne bailey's PUT YOUR RECORDS ON. :)

belly dancing tuesday / Wednesday, April 19, 2006


last night tita jinggay gave the moms (including the daughters hehe!!) free belly dancing lessons. we thought the "sisterhood" mommies were going to perform during the party, turns out the lessons were only for excersice and WE, the children (yes i'm still considered a child), are going to perform at the party! shit.. anyhu, they'd rather spend energy on this excersise than spend a fortune in Marie France just for them to lose weight and gain a curvacious, sexy figure at their 40s and 50s. tep's mum was so galing and we were all amazed at her! tita marian was so hilarious kc yung mga hirit nya kakaiba, after 6 months daw kasing sexy na nya si tita jinggay! and makasave daw sya ng 45 thousand na pang marie france dito.. with the visaya accent pa yan! hehehe! ang kukulit nilang lahat!



the steps were kind of hard to get, cause, like hawaiian dancing, belly dancing requires a very graceful body. the steps are very natural and smooth. snake-like ba.. hehe! it was fun doing the dance steps, tita taught us systematically by teaching us the exercises first, and the harder steps later. she lent us her weight-belts (the belt-like sash with bling on it..haha!). the weights were put on the waist to train the hip, so when they shake their booty they make sounds like little bells! hehehe! it was nice.. i wanted to have one and wear it with my jeans as an accessory! o dba bongga?! anyweiz, ang saya pala mag belly dancing! you should try it with your friends..papayat pa kayong magkakaibigan! hehe! at first, maffeel mo talaga yung pain sa legs, sa hips, shoulders and the part under the breast.. exaggerated kasi ang steps ng belly dancing so you have to exert a lot of effort..



ayun, in fairness nkakapawis magbelly dancing and sbi ni tita, basic pa lang daw yun, pros even go down on the floor and dance while lying down! exagge, parang uod. ;p

its so fun making projects out of imovie! its the same thing with the windows movie maker. although windows movie maker has more transitions and effects than imovie..

last friday, tito toti lent me his compilation of pictures of the repainting, the most recent community project they had. he asked me to make a slideshow presentation with the pics. i used iphoto to make the slideshow, and without any effects or edits, they liked it so much that they asked me to do FIVE more slideshows! i discovered this imovie thingy and played with it.. i finished one "movie" yesterday. i put in music and effects.. and it came out great. i showed it to tep and masis and they liked it..hehe! i can't wait to finish all the other four left or me to do. i hope i can finish all of 'em before our reggae party on May 6th so we could show it to everyone.

waa if only this was the only task given to me..life would have been much easier for me! i could make "movies" all day for all i care!

snapshots of Hutch cooling off on a hot summer day... haayy how i envy him.. he fits in a palanggana (basin)!

i could remember the days when me and my cousins would bathe at the laundry area of my lola's house, naked, in a palanggana.. how fun was that huh? ;p

tita nona said they should be bathed everyday to prevent them from having heatstroke. yeah he gets his shower everyday, sometimes even twice a day! good luck sa tubig namin..

waaaa / Monday, April 17, 2006


fuck. i'm goin nuts! there's so much to do, so much to think about and so much to type!!! damn.

i already loaded my globe with 50 pesos worth of unlimited texting and that would last for 5 days so i wont keep on going back to kuya tom's window to ask, "..pa-load???" hehehe.. plus, 50 pesos for five days is much cheaper than loading 15 for 24 hours of unlimited texting.

i'm gonna go with tep, cha and others to do our rounds later at 8pm.. we're going to enlist all the participants for the upcoming sportsfest. the easter egg hunt just ended and here we are again, working for the community. at least we get one day of rest, and that was yesterday.. i better go cause my mom's gonna use the computer..

adios!

thing is, i'm going to be busy this week cause of the easter egg hun shit.. hay kakapagod talaga! pero okay na din yun.. at least i have something to do for the summer..

last night was jason's birthday party. we crashed his place and shoved pasta and mini pizzas down our throats. then tita boots (a neghbor who was also the socials committee) called for a meeting for the upcoming sportsfest in our village. and dammit she was harassing me like hell! do this! do that! did you write everything down? don't forget this! that's important! blah blah blah!!! shit. the last thing i could think about now is work and resposibilty. my brain is on vacation mode right now for heaven's sake! and now here she comes pouring down heavy responsibilities on me and cha! sheesh...

finally. now's my chance!!

i 'm getting tired of promising that i'll post my kwento about my experience in the shores of morong..

i'm not as enthusiastic in blogging now unlike before when i used to update everyday.. kasi i'd rather bum around and sleep that's why! hehehe!

anyhu..i shall tell u about my trip to morong, bataan with the santos clan..

what i was thinkin 'bout:

when we got there, it turned out to be:

in short..mala-survivor ang dating!

we still enjoyed the sand, the sun, the whole beach! inspite of its imperfections.. we had fun..really!

the beach at night is soo romantic, wala nga lang akong karomansa.. boo for me! hahahah! the night sky was packed with stars you'll never be able to spectate when you're in manila.. the breeze was just cool enough to soothe your sun kissed skin.. it was my kind of "relaxation", i wished i could freeze time and stay like that forever! everything was calm..even the sea was calm.

i also had the chance to sample rhum and coke (the drink not the drug.) with my tito allan and tita baby.. msarap pala! it reminded me of sago't gulaman.. pero mabilis amats sakin.. namula ako agad after one glass.. so i stopped. hehehe!

when all was dark and everyone was retiring to bed (if there was any..) my mum noticed something sparkling on the ceiling, she thought the bulb was flickering, turns out, it was just a firefly! ang cool..it was my first time seeing one!

ayun, overnight kame dun, and at around 3pm the next day we bid the beach goodbye!

waw grabe natapos din..finally.

after 48 years... nakapagblog din ako!!

i've been dying to post something but i couldn't cause in the past few days my dad's been fiddling with the computer, trying to fix the internet connection or something.. plus at night, i couldn't use the pc anymore cause i get tired from roaming around the village with cha, masis and aira.. sheesh, i'm starting to get active in the community once again..us four plus tep, are organizing the easter egg hunt on the 16th and every night we list down names of kids who'd like to join and collect their registration fees.. it's a lot of work! anyweiz.. ayun ang reasons why i couldn't go online anymore these days..

i'll be posting (still) about our trip in morong.. ciao!

bakasyon part one / Monday, April 03, 2006


time to start blogging again!

i haven't posted anything since last week cause i was in vacation last thursday up till sunday.. my fam and i went to baguio last thursday and friday.. it was really bitin cause we only visited a few places in that area.. we stayed in the hotel most of the time..eating..sleeping and swimming! yeah swimming in baguio was a very unusual thing to do there..but it was nice still cause the pools were heated (malamang! baka nanigas na kame don!) and they had a jacuzzi! i loved the jacuzzi! it even had salt crystals in it (prob'ly to keep it warm)..

friday mawnin, we visited la trinidad cause we wanted to pick strawberries in the fields.. fee was P150 per kilo of strawberries picked, kinda pricey but we were after the experience of picking the sweet, popular fruit in la trinidad.. thing is, the stawberries in manong's field were tiny and there were barely big, red ones left for us to pick! while on the field next to his had huge, juicy and sweet ones! we were'nt allowed to pick there since the owner wasn't around..but every time manong turns his back we snatch the ones from the other field and put it in our little baskets! wehhehe..eevil!

we also went to Good Shepherd to buy some pasalubong and goodies! their ube jam and peanut brittle are the best! mmm!! it took us a while to get there.. we kinda got lost on the way cause la trini was on one corner of the map and good shepherd was on the opposite corner.. sheesh.. we've been visiting baguio at least every year and still we get lost!

we also went to the market to buy some MORE goods, but this time, veggies and coffee and rice.. produce were waaayy cheaper than those in manila!

the weather in baguio wasn't really nice to us.. overcast kasi.. but it wasn't really really cold, nung gabi lng siguro..

we went down from baguio after lunch.. the coffee we bought smelled inside the whole van so i couldn't really get a nice nap.. but the aroma had my dad alive, alert, awake (enthusiastic?? nyerr..) while driving..

hayy i wish i could show you pics of our stay in baguio but we only used our dad's fone to get pictures ehh the pics aren't transferred to his laptop yet..guess you and i will just have to wait for him to email me the pics..

mejo nawawalan na ko ng ganang magtype so part one nlng muna.. i'll tell you about my trip to morong in the next post!

ciao!
