mga kwento for the past few days / Tuesday, June 27, 2006


last week, especially last thursday, felt like hell in school! ang hirap talaga ng classes namin with sir dacanay! i really can't keep up with him..

but last saturday night, i took a rest from all that work! my friends and i went to eastwood to celebrate bishpran jp's 19th birthday. we ate jap for dinner at teriyaki boy and went dancing and drinking at blue onion. it was so much fun hanging out with them, lalo na't kumpleto kame, lahat present! hehe! we celebrated with a bottle of cuervo lime and salt! heheh! sarap ng cuervo pero ang tapang talaga.. i didn't drown myself with 5, 6 "shot-tubes" of cuervo like my friends did! haha! i only took about 3 or 4 coz i had to go to school at 10am.. jp, tep and i promised our rents to be home by 12 but we,cinderellas, got home at 2am already! haha! time flies so quickly when you're having fun..

shux! i woke up at 9:30 in the morning! i knew it was going to be impossible for me to get to school at 10 so idecided to stay home na lang..

sunday..sunday was really nice coz of the weather.. skies were gray, wind was cold and rain was pouring down! ahhh.. its so nice to sleep during a rainy day! :) i slept in the afternoon coz i needed sleep anyweiz...

my dad discovered something cool from google.. its called Google Earth. google earth is like your online globe only it is more detailed and realistic! you could go to different places all over the world and find all geographical information you need!

i went finding my house once it was downloaded to my computer..hehehe! i also found csa, ust, my dad's office in pandacan, our house in pampanga and in vigan.. marc helped me find his house too! hehehe! download nyo! masaya pramis! ;)

my monday was typically ok.. except that it rained in the afternoon and we were dismissed early so i had to commute going home.. badtrip! i hate it when it rains so hard and the streets fill up with water! wala na kong mgagawa, i had to walk on the wet streets to get to my destination..these are times we you wish you had high cut water proof boots in your bag! i got to the colorum with wet feet! ugh! kadiri feeling.. dpat pala nagdadala din ako ng rag to at least wipe my wet tootsies..

and now im sorta relaxing kasi wala akong class today.. even though marami pa dapat akong asiksuhin like my IND, MP, MC.. hayyy.. naalala ko nanaman.. sumasakit nnman ulo ko.. ughhh!!

hayy nakakapagod! pahinga muna ako bago ko gawin yung 20 concepts ko.. good luck sa utak ko.

shitty day / Thursday, June 15, 2006


my second day of my second year in industrial design in ust is one helluva shitty day.

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

my 1st class today was at 11am and i didn't have to wake up so early today but i had to commute to school and its fine with me.. but i woke up late this morning and i left home at quarter to 10! then, yung driver ng colorum na nasakyan ko, malay ko ba kung epileptic sya o ano, but his damn head kept on twitching the whole time! tpos singa sya ng singa na parang there's something bothering his nose tpos iling ng iling.. and the worse thing is, sa harapan ako nakaupo, sa tabi nya! putakteng yan oh! nkakatakot! pero ang galing kasi nakakapagdrive pa sya kahit papano diba? pero hindi rin pala kasi super bagal nya mgdrive! i'm going to be late!

pero ayun pagdating ko sa school, 11:30 na, buti wala pa yung prof! class ko nga pala nun is MP1 - Materials and Processes 1. and yung teacher namin buti mabait, si ms. nobleza.. she taught in our fdr class last year and her drawings are amazing. MP was fun pero pagdating ng MC class namin..POOF! happiness, joy and gladness: gone..FOREVER.

ang hirap ng MC - Model Construction! and to think first day palang namin imeet yung prof na yun, nagbigay sya agad ng exercise! akalain mo yun tpos napakahirap pa! bwisit tlga! we had to find the missing view of the given 3D object. he provided only the top and elevational view. so we had to find the frontal view. yun pa lang tinataga na ako sa utak eh! and after that, we still had to construct a one piece stucture of that object making use of a 4-ply bristol board. shet. problem agad. grabe ang hirap magvisualize. ang hirap magisip. expecially if your brain is still on vacation. i have to wake up and realize na...my course is getting tougher and tougher!

next class was math204. we thought it was a regular ordinary math subject na puro lecture lang.. we were wrong! grabe! technical subject din pala yun! that explains why that damn subject is 3 units worth! the same prof showed us the overview of the subject, tangina nanlaki yung mata ko sa hirap eh! pucha yan! nakakaburat!

hayy.. buhay.. buhay estudyante.. nkakabadtrip.. hahahahaha! takte.. malapit nanaman akong mabaliw..

anyhu, im super duper tired already, i have to rest.. my legs are aching and my feet really really hurt cause of my killer shoes..

tomorrow is a new day. hah! i wish.

good night.

yesterday, my bispren returned some of the artworks she borrowed for her school report.

this painting is precious to me. i thought i'd scan it and post it to my blog..
medium: watercolor on watercolor paper
size: 4x6 in.


i got a perfect score for this piece of artwork! :) in my visual arts class (4th yr highschool), we sat down and painted on the side of the canteen facing the field. we each painted a portion of the field, our choice, whether we wanted this side or that side. AND DURING THIS PROJECT i was attacked by a friggin mosquito! that's why i got confined in the hospital for four days due to dengue! (i feel itchy at the moment..excuse me while i scratch my leg.) kaya ayun.. when i got home, i had to rush this painting cause it's past deadline and i made up some of the details and painted it here, at home. but it turned out good. my imagination didn't fail me. haha!

wala lang.

guso ko lang ishare.

paki nyo ba.

anyweiz.. about the avps.. i was able to burn 3 kinds of avps today.. yeah i know its not exciting! deal with it. hehehe...

oh yeah i haven't told about our hillsborough swimming last sunday.. after a very busy and tiring saturday (i slept at around 2 in the morning), me and some friendly friends and neighbors went to hillsborough for a swim. i haven't got copies of the pictures yet coz you know poor lang ako wala akong camera. kahit nga celfone ko walang camera eh. hahahah! kawawa naman ako! can anyone out there give me any gawdam camera fone?!? hahaha! hay nako.. kung magka-pera talaga ako, a motorazr v3i will be on the top of the shopping list!

anyway back to hillsborough.. hillsborough is a village, like ayala alabang and dasmarinas! its located between alabang and sucat. you can see it from south luzon expressway, along the service road, with a huge clock in between two black gates. they have a pool area inside which they call aqua park. they have a big pool area with 2 slides, only one of which is working. its nice swimming there. we enjoyed the water so much! swimming really beats the heat off our bodies!

during lunch time, dark clouds covered hillsborough and poured down rain. ayun muntik lang nabasa yung mga gamit namin! hehehe.. but they have a pavillion so thats where we put our stuff. pero masaya pa din kasi ang lamig! tpos mainit init yung pool water.. it feels nice.. hehehehe! sarap ng huling hirit bago magpasukan, kahit na sobrang itim ko na, ayus lang! maitim ako dahil nakapagswim ako, eh kayong mga mapuputi jan? nasan kayo nung summer? sa lungga nyo?? hehehehe!! joke lng.. :)

mansanas anyone? / Monday, June 12, 2006




Welcome to the yummiest, crunchiest apple in the big apple!

This Apple Store is located at Fifth Avenue, New York. Yep! Its a store- a really really NICE store. Well actually the store is underneath this cube of glass. The design is sooo imaginative, sooo architecturally innovative its giving me an artistic orgasm! instead of building an infrastructure way up high, they made an underground hub. The Apple store is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for the rest of our freakin lives to be of service to apple maniacs and soon-to-be-apple maniacs alike. Here's a peek inside, erm underneath the spectacular glass cube...








With a prime location and an amazing architectural aesthetic, no worm can spoil this apple now!

AVP MANIA! / Friday, June 09, 2006


i just finished 3 imovie projects today. and i've got 4 more to go! waa! this is kinda driving me crazy.. plus the fact that i do this out of love as in ZERO pay, has got me thinking that i should start an imovie business. i've got equipment, i just have to buy cds and dvds! but my schedule and time is makin me hink twice about putting up this kind of business. when school starts, i won't be able to devote my time and energy in these making avps.. its really easy to make an avp but if you really want to get good results, you gotta put so much effort in editing, cropping, zooming, unzooming the pictures, putting in subtitles and captions, applying effects and transitions, thinking of how you're gonna start or end the presentation, arranging the pics if ever they need to be arranged in a specific order..stuff like that.. making avps CAN stress you especially if you're making 30-minute long movies!! and if you have to scan and edit 400 photographs! waa! hahaha! the avp i made for father's day is 26 minutes long and i've been working on it since last week.. this morning i started on another avp for tita belle's friends. it's 6 minutes long and i finished it a while ago, i just have to show it to her for approval. gawd! i can finish a 6-minute avp in a day coz of that 26-minute-long avp! haha!

gotta finish my other 4 movies.. updates soon! ;) ciao for now!

Look at this photo...


wow! hanep sa decoration diba? i found this pic in some website where they post different filipino pictures.. i think the jeepney is definitely one of the icons that represent the philippines. it has been used for transportation for so many years now. in fact its the most popular mode of transportation here in the philippines. aside from its transprtation purposes, it also represents how artsy fartsy filipinos are. look at the picture above... exaggerated and and overly decorated, i know. but through the jeepney, filipinos express their tastes. they decorate the jeep with different colors, all kinds, shapes and sizes of lights, trimmings, etc. the well-decorated, colorful jeepney represents the Filipinos' creativity and inovativeness that no one can find in any other place except in the philippines.

i could remember my prof in my phil.arts class discuss and liken the jeepney to a 'parol'. both are considered art forms here in our country and both represent how colurful and decorative filipinos are.

but today, jeeps, rather jeepney drivers, are disgusted by private vehicle drivers because of their feisty and rude behavior in the road. they cut you on your lane and stop in the middle of the road to load or unload a passenger. jeeps never fail to piss my mom off whenever she drives. hehehe..

siguro ako din magmumumura sa loob ng sasakyan dahil sa jeep pag mahusay na drayber na ako! wahaha! kelan pa kaya yun? ilang months na ko tinuturuan di pa din ako makalayo na magisa..hehe! takot kasi ako.. and i'm really not that street-wise..

good luck nlng sa driving ko! :P
