MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I'm taking the chance to greet since it is still December anyway!
After months and months of not being able to meet up and chat, we finally found each other sitting and lounging at Bubble Bee Tea House. As usual, it's so nice there and cozy, homy and very very very relaxing.
So, we spent time taking picture, chatting, tea tasting, took pics again, and laughed at our positions. HAHA! I missed my Superfriendz. And it seemed like we just met a few days ago when we met. But I still want more. I like being with them. We've been friends since college so, if I count backwards that would be, since 2009? I think? Haha! It doesn't matter really, what matters most is I still have them. Even though we totally have different schedules and ADLs, we'd still find ourselves at a certain place we've always wanted to meet up, like even though it has been planned for months, after failed attempts. we'd still be able to to do so- plus the late meet ups. BWAHAHAH!
2013 is fast approaching! Imma be at work again taking calls! BUHAY CC AGENT! But it's going to be a new experience since I\d be with my workmates! Though nothing compares to being with family during those kind of events, SPECIAL EVENTS. Hmmm but I cannot change my schedule just like that. I'd make bawi!.
Grabbed the opportunity to buy a Christimas Tree with a discount. We had it partially designed by the sales associates, had it delivered to our house. Maybe coz my mama is too busy to set it up, but she is also busy thinking as to how she'd redesign the look of our newly bought Christmas Tree ♥
I woke up one afternoon and desperately felt the need to take snaps. I couldn't find any good subject. But when I looked outside I was amazed by the color of the sky. It's usually blue or it gets grayish in the afternoon especially after 5 pm, but this is what I saw...
Wew! Weird! It's like a Tornado in the sky. Scary!
Photo below were taken the following day I took those photos above. I have observed the structure of the sky was calmer than the previous takes.
Yey! I finally got the chance to visit CMYK this evening since it's my day off. I was totally up for it because the owner is LEA. And I look up to her. She's a diva on her own because she is a photographer, a blogger and now a dessert house OWNER! What a WOW! That's a WOW!
I went there with my family and luckily she was there. We had a hard time choosing which one to order as we weren't really sure which would suit our taste, but heaven, they have pasta, ramen and so many sweets so, we just had to closely look at each of the photos in the menu and ordered-finally. It took us mga 10 minutes ata? HAHAH!
My pictures were epic FAIL!! I wish I took awesome photos so I can help in promoting her resto. But oh gosh my photos looked so messy! So imma put a link na lang of a review a kapwa blogger made nalang. Here's the link: CMYK review.
JUST A HEADS UP HERE: Everything is well presented in CMYK, from set-up, food design, taste, their servers are friendly, the place is cozy and homy, I can stay there for hours it's just that I live in Liloan so we had to go home na.
I'm with my mama and mamane so bongga naay mupicture for me + a pic with Lea herself! CLAP CLAP!
I don't know where in a world will I ever share this one! Good thing I have my own blog!
I'd really really say this proposal is really one of the most surreal wedding proposal ever!!!
OMG!I found myself teary-eyed even though I am nowhere related to the girl or even to the boy in this video. But I just thought this is one of the sweetest proposals I have ever watched on Youtube. Wedding proposals are just one of the most exciting days in our lives when we are in a relationship. Us girls, will never have a slightest idea as to when would a guy ask us to marry him and put a ring on left hand! lol AMAZING! I'm sooooo looking forward to my own experience! Let's see if that's ever gonna happen!
Good Job boy!!!! You nailed it! You're the coolest! hahahaha
I'd like to congratulate Regine Velasquez for her Silver Anniversary concert!! It was a success and much as I don't wanna use the words- but, however, if only, maybe, sorry, sayang, hay nako-impossible kasi hindi naging ganun ka flawless yung concert. I don't have the right to say that but it is the reality. It's all in the news and even Regine Velasquez herself was sorry for what happened during the concert. She was sick and her voice was affected. I've watched a couple of videos already and nahurt ako. Nasasaktan ako watching her struggling to get the perfect note. Being a fan and a reginian for a decade- nakikita ko ang mannerisms nya, kahit pikit ng mata, lunok, or kung when nya itataas ang boses nya- alam ko yun. Alam ko lahat! Observant ako eh. Pero iba yung sa concert nya, hirap talaga abutin yung tono. Tono lang ang di niya naabot, WAGAS PA RIN ANG PAGKANTA nya! Lang tatalo!! But nasasaktan ako. huhuhuh. On the brighter note, may free concert naman daw! OMG! Swerte talaga ng mga reginians and good thing the producers wanted to have it for free din. Galeng! Love na love ko Songbird and team nya. :-)
I personally picked IN YOUR EYES as part of my blogpost eh kasi love ko rin ang song na 'to. It reminds me of so many things. Like my dreams, the people I love, my mission and mga things I wanna do in my life. My family and all. Meaningful lang talaga ang song na 'to :-) And I am so sure, this song is one of Regine's favorites! YEE! ASSUMING BAH?! Ate ko yan eh! Swak kami. hahaha
My mind is blank. I cannot think of anything but blog about what I feel.
I'm so disappointed with work. The scheme is so bad. I do not want to report back after my day off. huhuh.
And as much as I want to stay, I know it's not right because I am just an ordinary person, I am not rich, i am just a commoner. So I need money. hahaha
I remembered those days when I told myself, I will stay in this company until they no longer like me to stay. But it seems as though they've used me to the point of me giving up since I am not paid well. The schedule sucks. So I guess, the next time I get hired, I will not think of staying for so long so I wouldn't feel bad in the end. Coz seriously, I feel bad with my decision of quitting. grr
But I still have a couple of days to think about that though. I know this will pass. I know right after my day off, I'd still see myself back in my cubicle taking calls.
I was at the mall yesterday with my Mama. We both missed the mall. We only get to stroll like once in a month, because she got business to watch and I have work as well plus the fact that I work at dawn. I prayed for it, so I can't complain. But am almost at the peak of giving up. But am not gonna share about it yet coz I have a more interesting story to tell..
I BOUGHT A NEW PAIR OF GURLY STUFF: SHOES!
I got a story about the brand. You can buy a pair of these gurly stuff at Naturalizer. It's so pretty and gurly right? I never thought I would EVER EVER try any of their displays. I mean at first glance when I am outside their shop I'd immediately say "Oh! Let's go, it's not my type". But I didn't say that yesterday coz for the first time ever, I went in, and tried their shoes on. OHGOSH! I realized that every single one I tried on fit well on me. No spaces, no holes. AMAZING. They have my size. All of them. All of the styles caught my attention. It felt I was on my own room. Like all the shoes inside the shop were mine. I WISH! But that's impossible. So anyway, I found this one and I fell inlove with it. Love at first sight. So lesson learned?! NEVER SAY NEVER. If I'd get a "K" to shop again at any shopping mall, I'm sure I'd visit Naturalizer. I know it! hahaha!
Broke? YEAH! Everybody knows it's pricey! I'm not rich so I totally felt like I spent a whole lotta expensive pair of shoes. But at the same time I feel pretty when I wear it. OMGOSH! I'm excited to wear it for work :)
Always remember to SHOP WISE! hahahahha well, I'm a wise shopper! I tell you, this is a good pick : )
It's been one of my favorites since it came out. It speaks a lot about what I AM THINKING from things I want to be and what I want to do. Like I don't need to explain myself coz it's all in one song.
Not only I love this song, I also love Avril Lavigne. ♥
OH! How I missed my favorite boys in Korea! BIG BANG!
I haven't been able to show my support and my love for them since I'm kinda busy with my job. I always sleep after shift and do nothing but SLEEP since the schedule is taking so much of my energy. Good thing it's my day off today, I get to watch youtube videos and spend time with family. Hmmmm.
I'm not so updated when it comes to Big Bang songs lately but it's good that everytime I watch a new video of them and finding out it's a new song, I still find them very entertaining and I still love them with all my heart! LOL! Pretty serious here! Oh! And it breaks my heart knowing that they're coming to MANILA this month but I can't even be in their concert and show 'em my BIG BANG LOVIN'! Haaaay!! I really wish I could but......I JUST CAN'T!~ OUCH!
At the same time, I know my blog misses me a lot coz I haven't been sharing what's going lately. Hang on BLOG. I love you with all my heart! I will definitely share something great in the next few days! HAHHA!
Wow! My weekend's literally almost over due to work schedule changes.
But I think I spent my weekend well.
We just had an internet connection and I get so high every time I feel like surfing the net and there's really an internet connection, Omgosh I wouldn't be bored at all. It's like my mood can shift from lazy to hyper! And even though I am sleepy? I'd totally forget about sleeping. Thus, the existence of the dark circles under my eyes. Haha! It's okay!
So, over the weekend, which is Saturday only for me since I got to be at the workplace at 8pm but my new shift is going to be at 2AM on Monday. I know it's going to be hard for me since I got used to night shift but to start working at dawn wouldn't be a pain I guess since it's the same thing, it's a graveyard shift, but what's difference is that, the dismissal's gonna burn my body! I go in at 2AM EST ( 2PM Central) and go out at 12:30 PM EST. That's crazy.
PAUSE.
-----What? I was supposed to say something about my happy weekend, then I ended up explaining my schedule. Kabuang!
Uhm yeah! I was able to spend quality time with my family. Mama and I sang a lot using Youtube. It's like a karaoke machine. Well, there are awesome fans who would upload karaoke formats of a specific song so that all you have to do is search for the yeah. THANKS A BUNCH!
I also got to do Zumba with my Mama! Haha it was so funny! I think I don't know how to dance anymore. Zumba is like a basic one, it's like 1, 2, 1 ,2 but hell gosh, I can't do it right! GRR! Naunsa naman tawn ko oie! And again, thanks to Youtube for allowing the generous ones to upload their tutorials :P
So basically that's just it. To sum it all up, I can say that I literally had a great time with my Family. And what's the good thing about it, we didn't have to go to the downtown area or to the city for night life. This is why I love the internet :) We get to do so many things. I was able to read Patty Laurel's blog as well as Bianca Gonzales' blog, so I regained my thoughts of living this life with enthusiasm! Thank you Ladies!
How about you? How did you spend your weekend? Do you mind sharing it? I'd love to read it!
LOL. It's been awhile since my last post. It seem as though I have forgotten about this blog. Ofcourse not! I love this blog more than any social networking site second to Facebook. Oh! And speaking of, the reason why I haven't been really posting in here it's because my posts lately are ONE LINERS to THREE LINERS so they're not good for blogging. They be better as status posts. I have a lot things to share though. I just need to gather myself up. Someday I'll write 'em here as well : )
So, about this video- I love it! It's the first time in my entire life to watch a Victoria Secret Fashion show and its Angels. If it were not of Nicki Minaj I may not have gotten to the page/ video where I could watch Victoria Secret fashion shows. They're soooo pretty, skinny but very gorgeous. My Queen Nicki at the same time is pretty in her own right : )
I love Starships and Superbass by Nicki Minaj a lot. I can listen to it all day long lol
Sooo anyway, that's it for now. Time to hit the bed. Good night loves!
They say " just do
what you love to do!" But what if I DO it? It's just going to
complicate things. I've already asked Him why can't I do it like them?
The answer is just too obvious. It's such a shame if I'd say I don't get
it. That I still don't get it.
Okay, I know I can't. I
know the reason why I can't. It is such a heart breaker. I could cry out
loud every single day but there's no other way to deal with it but
ACCEPT it. Accepting it was once a hard thing to do for me. But this is
my reality.
The floor, the beat, the steps, the bounce,
the energy, the force and bass, the heat, the pacing, the stiffness, the
kind of happiness I feel whenever I do it, the intensity, the passion,
the flexibility, the cheer, the kind of weakness i feel after I've an
hour of time to just do it- Ah~ I just miss it.
I MISS DANCING.
estepeyaaaaaaah!
I miss those times we rehearse for a performance. I miss being too preoccupied with the choreography. Ah~ I miss everything about my past!
J.Lo doesn't have to impress anyone at all coz her simplicity is beyond impressive. I love her, I love her I love her!!!! I love since I was in gradeschool even now that I'm done with school. Well, that is just how I describe the time I knew about her and to describe how much of me likes her : )
The music video is impressive as well. No masks, nothing on it makes me think someone over did a music video again. No. It's really simple yet very very entertaining. I love the song, the beat and the choreography. Ah~ Makes me wanna dance on the stage, again : )
It's 1 am in the morning but I can't sleep. I'm on my regular routine of checking facebook from 8pm and the next thing I know, it's already the first hour for the next day. This is how I spend my days lately. I have been feeling a lil frustated these days coz it seems as though I haven't been doing things that I should be doing like work, arts, crafts, dance and the like. I can mention so many things yet I have not been doing anything to actually sustain what I want.
A highschool classmate posted this one via facebook. I listened to it and I was like " wooah!"! This is the perfect song for me now! HIT THE LIGHTS!!!
The lyric of the song says it all and I'm posting it as well :)
"Hit The Lights"
Songwriters: Pringle, Leah / Nilsson, Tony / Pringle, Daniel James
sang by: Selena Gomez and The Scene
It's the boy you never told 'I like you'
It's the girl you let get away
It's the one you saw that day on the train
But you freaked out and walked away
It's the plane you wanna catch to Vegas
Things you swear you'd do before you die
It's the city of love that waits for you
But you're too damn scared to fly
[Chorus x2:]
Hit the lights
Let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
Come alive
Let the moment take you
Lose control tonight
It's the time that you totally screwed up
Still you're tryna get it out your brain
It's the fight you had when you didn't make up
It's the past that you're dying to change
It's all the money that you're saving
While the good life passes by
It's all the dreams that never came true
‘Cause you're too damn scared to try.
[Chorus x2:]
Hit the lights
Let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
Come alive
Let the moment take you
Lose control tonight
It's a mad, mad world
Gotta make an escape
It's a perfect world
When you go all the way
Hit the lights
Let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
So let's go (go, go, go) all the way
Yeah let's go (go, go, go) night and day
From the floor to the rafters
People raise your glasses
We could dance forever
[Chorus:]
Hit the lights
Let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
Come alive
Let the moment take you
Lose control tonight
It's a mad, mad world
Gonna make an escape
It's a perfect world
When you go all the way
Hit the lights
Let the music move you
Lose yourself tonight
I'm posting it coz I wanna remember this one forever :))
I was just watching The Voice and thought I'd search for some nice videos by the show since they upload it on youtube but stumbled upon this audio video, a fan of Daniel Padilla uploaded<3333 What can I say??? I totally love it.The voice is so raw and soothing. If I do have a boyfriend who'd sing this while staring at me I'd totally be in tears or all smiles. Tears of joy kung makahilak ko. <333 I also love the lyric of this song. And if I'd stare at Danii's picture right here, it just makes me think back to my teeny years and ask why I became OLDER than him! I'M TOTALLY CRAZY about this guy! I have a crush on this guy! WAAAH! SO GWAPO and CHARMING. SO MANLY even though he's just a teenager. So GWAPO and MAPORMA. Not baduy. So CUTE!!!! I.LOVE.U! hahahaha
I just came from a summer vacation that was filled with fun and enjoyment. I was bein' surrounded by happy people, friendly environment and live music. So I don't wonder why I feel sad and blue and a lil bored tonight. I'm all alone in the house as everybody is back on business. I am not working for now that is why I stay in the house a lot- I promise on July 10th, I'll rise up from bed early in the morning and do some job hunting again, show up and get hired! I'm serious. But before I can say things about work- which is legit serious by July- I'm just gonna share how this song instantly changed my mood.
For hours, I was bored. But thanks to Youtube! You saved me, I began searching for videos and then I saw this one. I am not familiar of the artist or the maker of this song, but sure it made me high at its first note. The song started off show and then after 30 seconds perhaps, the sound blasted all over my house! It's a hype song, it's a happy song and it didn't fail me with its title. Young and Free indeed! I am young and I am free! Yes I am! :)
I admit that I've been a lil tired and uninspired these days, but I gotta minus 2 days of it since I just came from Bohol 3 days ago. hahaha! But I am okay now. Music really helps all the time. Whether you are sad, happy, lonely, travelling, waiting for someone in the hall, or just merely staring at you-don't-know-what-exactly-you-are staring-at. YEAH! Music is a constant company, Thanks God for it! :)
So, tonight I'm gonna continue looking for things I can still do before finally hit my bed.
Blogging helps me a lot, too :) Thanks BLOGSPOT! :)
Before I begin browsing at another's blog am just gonna post my lil share of story about my third and most meaningful visit in Bohol.
Finally, after several years of not going out with family, we finally did it last May 1, 2 and 3--- this morning we had to sail back to Cebu and get back to reality.
But before reality came and snapped, I had been in my most amazing Bohol Dream Tour :)
I've been on this island three times already. But this visit was more meaningful than ever because I got to visit it with my family and family friends.
Our first stop was at Tagbilaran City in Bohol, we attended a fiesta, so by the time we arrived we just went straight to Mam Joy's parent's house in Tagbilaran and ate our lunch. I actually found a San Francisco plant/ leaves where I didn't see in Cebu. Here's the picture of it in case you are not familiar of how it looks
San Francisco Plant. I just love looking at this. I've searched for this 10 years in a row. I didn't know I'd find it in Bohol. I haven't seen this in Cebu.
We ate ate ate ate and ate.
Next stop.... Panglao Beach Resorts.
I love the place I can say beautiful things about it. But the pictures I took would say it's own story and description I can feel the insecurity of my lack of words. LOL
I got PICTURES of Panglao with me in it ofcourse. WAHAHAHA!! Before posting it, Let me say
"CHOOSE PHILIPPINES!!!!!!"
The seashore...
I'm also impressed at the water of Tagbilaran City Pantalan. They call it Pantalan there instead of Pier. In Cebu we call it Pier, diba? Hehe. I took a photo of it and here it is :
See that!? You can dive in there! I guess, if it's not prohibited. It's so clean and not a single chichiria you can see anywhere! Impressive! Coz I know, not all Panatalans are as clean as Tagbilaran City's.
What I am so impressed about is this....
The mountains of Bohol it's so fresh and virgin. Wala pang mga punong natutumba masyado :) Sooner or later, its face will change. Okay na tong may shot tayo hahahaha
We had a tour around the city and the mountains as well.
Blood Compact
Baclayon Church ( the second oldest church in the Philippines. Built 1570's done 1770's. Imagine?
Loboc River
Chocolate Hills
Hanging Bridge along Sevilla river
Prony's place where Marimar would perform
Man- Made Forest ( AMAZING! BREATH TAKING!!!) I even hugged a tree
This was planted during 1550's...so why not hug it while it's there and I'm here?! Right, Yo?! hahaha
Butterfly Sanctuary
and finally the pasalubong shop at its Factory Price. It has a shop name but I couldn't remember because all i'd hear is "dun tayo sa Factory Price". hahaha
I loved the tour. I enjoyed it a lot.
At night, we slept at a house made out of native woods like kawayan and ceiling made out of Amakan.
I wanna go back to Bohol, still. Even if it's going to be my fourth. I'd be willing to join if I have a group explore the city again with :)
OMG! I was wasting so much of my time lurking on facebook walls, then to my timeline and go back to my homepage. Then I saw this. The moment I saw the wrapper, I was like " OMG!". I immediately shared it to all my cousins via Facebook.
Haw Flakes reminds me so much of my childhood summer stays in Labangon, Cebu City where my OPERARIO family gather everytime they come to the Philippines and for those residing in the Philippines we just take a plane ride or Ship ride to Cebu :)
My Lolo Payo used to make us fall in line and wait till we receive it from his hands. He would have to say "Kalawat" first and then we receive it by our month or he'd put in our hands. We do it everyday, at random time. I never got its name until TODAY. LOL How's that?! I love the taste of it. I've always wanted to buy a pack of it even though I'm getting older now. I don't care. But I couldn't find it anywhere. What I also failed to do is ask my lolo what its brand name is until tonight it came across my naked eyes, so big and i got so alarmed. hahhahah! I finally got its name. I'm so happy I think I can sleep deeply tonight. HAHAH!
I even called my mama just to say what I found tonight. I'm sure she remembered me receiving it from my Lolo :)
I miss my OPERARIO FAMILY :) We should meet again! :)
Ah~ Summer days are gone fast I know but it hasn't yet right?! I'M MISSIN' THE BEACH a lot! I wanna spend a day or two in a beach!! I wanna wear a bikini and take lotsa pictures there. I miss the jump shots and stuff. I miss the fun that you get just jammin' with your closest friends and talk about random and even the nonsense. I just missed it all.
Anyway, I just opened my flickr and read through some important notes. And so, I didn't have to worry about the storage policy because it would refresh itself every 1st day of the month. Aww. I get 300mb per month. I'm sure I won't reach the limit. lol so I am offcially back on Flickr. I'll be sharing some pictures there and link it up with blogspot coz I blog. hahahaha!
I went down the city yesterday to look for a job but still in doubt if I'd push through or not since I have a July wedding to consider. But I still tried and went through a series of interviews. I was being honest of my possible leave. And they didn't consider me. But what's good about it is that I passed on the exams, interviews it's just that they cannot pursue with my application for the reason that I stated awhile ago. So, here, I am staying in my house. Lurking on pages, texting buddies and just being online. This shouldn't be boring because being online has always been a good past-time for me. But now? No. I just want to have a job and bet paid already coz I think I've been a bum for quite sometime. Though I do seem like helping my Mama with the business but I just want to have my own money out of a job that I wish I could have months ago. Mama appreciates my presence a lot but being *datchless* is different to me. C'mon!! Who doesn't like getting paid? I need to buy shoes! JOKE! hahahah
Anyway, I'm going to share my experience yesterday.
I applied for Convergys. Eeee I made it until Final Interview. The good news that I got is that I passed everything which would contradict what I got the last time I applied. That was last year. I was sooo happy to know I almost made it. But I have to consider My couzo's wedding this July. I will be a Bridesmaid. DAPAT NAA KO DIDTO :) Plus! I miss my cousin's a lot so...it's a perfect timing for us to bond a lil and I know we'll have a blast!
FOR THE FIRST TIME ALSO, I'M GOING TO WEAR A GOWN!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!
.........
Anyway, as I was saying, I applied for CVG. But they declined coz of my possible leave.
What shocked me the most is, the GINABUTAN where I used to take my breakfast got replaced by with a tall building which I think is the extension of CVG. The building is expanding. WOW!
I miss the times I got teary-eyed
pic?
here!
these are my co-workmates in Qualfon. My first job back in 2011
I'm so upset with myself because I couldn't find words to express what I am thinking. Days have gone by and everynight before I go to sleep I always refresh my thoughts and ask myself "Did I do something productive today?"
I'm no longer employed but I am helping my Mama and Mamane with our business. Mama would say it's all for us but I will be the one to manage it soon. I am not a Math person everrr. I never liked Math and in all honesty, I almost failed that subject! Oh goodness, I needed a kick in the butt to really pass Math or even Algebra. I just hate it!!!!
But..........
Lately, nakahuna huna ko. I think I made a wrong choice at not really getting myself into STUDYING MATH. I didn't have an idea that I would be this interested with BUSINESS or ACCOUNTING. SHHHET! OO! I like Accounting now and I want to learn it s bad! Kung pwede pa lang, I'd enroll myself to Business Related course. But I don't think I'd need to re-enroll myself to college just to get into business. But here's the thing, when I was in highschool I've been vocal about putting up a Dream Restaurant with my friends
*KRIOVENOULLOSE- as my barkada way back highschool*. Naman!! If only I graduated in John Bosco College wala siguro nawagtang sa akong huna huna nga gusto ko magnegosyo! Restaurant pa! Asa! If I took that in mind talaga, siguro HRM or BA graduate ko and not Nursing.
But..........
I am inlove with Nursing. Nuff said.
Okayyyy. The main point is, nagbasol ko wala nako giseriouso ang Math. That is all.
As with my creativity???! mmm I don't think I am a creative person either. lol but I like colors and I do Photoshop. That would instantly fill my artsy cravings. I miss doing edits. I miss taking pictures. I miss creating something great out of ordinary photo. Ah! What's happening to me?! Why man samok kaayo akong utok? hmmmm
p.s to self : to blog everyday to express my thoughts. bow.
Today, I stayed in the house and I had the time off to sit and search for new "somethings". And yes, indeed, I found a new love :) Cebuano Films
I'm going to post the officia videos release via youtube and Dream Line Productions
I've watched the whole video and I am proud of the team that made this video. I managed to share it on facebook so that my friends will also take notice of this short film. I love the story and it has touched me. Because personally, I also love dancing that apart from nursing, this is what I really wanted to do but I don't think I've been given the support that I needed from my family. That is because they don't like showbiz or anything that's about it. They just hate it. I have been making " paramadam" that it's something that I love, but to no success, I end up doing nothing now. Not even working in a hospital nor hitting the stage or even just merely dancing. Nothing. I am a lil' bitter but... yeah. This is my reality.
Anyway here's another Cebuano Film that I discovered that you might also enjoy.
I only got to watch the TEASER and I am itching to find a copy of this coz I really want to watch the whole film. I'm still trying to find out if it's still showing in the local cinemas. But for the meantime I'm just gonna share it here so that the film gets exposed, haha!
I WANNA ACT FOR A CEBUANO FILM! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have watched the video and it made me teary-eye. In my head I thought of ways to help the maker of the video. And since I blog, this could be the first thing I can do and that is to post about it aside from posting it on facebook and twitter or at any means possible. SPREAD THE TEXT ABOUT KONY!
Watching the first few minutes of the video ripped my heart. I was devastated at how JOSEPH KONY did all this. Why in the world he choose to do this massive killings and criminals, taking kids off their families and teach them to control a gun. That is just plain EVIL, JOSEPH! You must show up and give up!! Don't you have a GOD!???! Or a you acting like one?! YOU NO GOD AND YOU NO GOOD!
Since you're already on my page please do take some time off to watch this video. This is really important if you live in Africa, anywhere in Uganda especially if you haven't heard if this name KONY yet because you just moved in from other place. Please do watch. This is important. It can save you family and especially you. And after that, help everybody spread the word. If you have a blog, post it. Tweet it on twitter to support. This is the least I could do, I wish I could do so much more.
I am so vexed knowing what KONY did. Those innocent children have their dreams but KONY did no justice for killing and teaching them all about guns and killing. OH KONY! The Lord God, I know will forgive you since He forgives everybody, but MR. JOSEPH KONY you gotta show up! PLEASE!

...coz you always knew that when I am in the mood for writing, you know that I need a blog to babble anything and that I needed my own pad. When I don't feel like putting the words in a notebook and when I just want to do the finger play, you're always there. Thank you.
And now I am back.
I've gone through a series of changing moods and emotion since SINULOG and it kinda hit me last night that I haven't been blogging again.
Whenever I see my last blog entry, aside from the many things that I can remember during that day- the event itself, the happy moments that I had with two different families, the fun, the laughter, the list can go on and on.-I could still remember one awful goodbye that I heard unspoken. I have learned to let go of someone who made an impact in my life,whom I've treated so well. Ah~ sometimes you just have to let it slip. Move on and go ahead forward.
On a brighter side of everything I just want to show what I consider to myself an awesome gift " my rebonded hair" I got this treated at Crown Regency Tower Salon. And I am happy with the result. I haven't seen any damaged part. Plus I have been maintaining a hot oil treatment for this one but not the kind of treatment you get in a salon every month, no. My mama and I bought KERATIN to treat our rebonded hair at home and it's fun. I always enjoy doing it myself :)
I made this one so that I can document my hair. Coz I might just get a new do this year :) Change is always good :)
My long long long long hair :) I have always planned getting it this long :)
I want to have a proper photoshoot. :( I want to have make up and styled by a stylist. But it's just too costly for me. :( so here. This is what I made. But I am still looking forward to heading to a real studio and make that plan realized. I SWEAR!
Another thing I am sharing about is how I love the start of the year.
It's YEAR OF THE DRAGON and it's my YEAR! lol
Here's a picture I asked my friend to take coz I really want to have it as a backdrop :)
Hi! My name is Maria Kristina and I am an aries and born 1988 ( Year of the DRAGON)
I just hope this is gonna be true for me :)
I am actually vexed at why I still didn't pass the Nursing Licensure Examination. But me doing this blog made me realize something. I just don't know what is in store for me. Maybe I can excel in another field. I have a lifetime to figure that one out. I have a wide variety of interests so I do not have to be depressed. I have lots of outlet to pour things out. And I am the kind of gurl who doesn't focus too much on things that makes me sad. YES I CAN SAY THAT, NOT ANYMORE BABY! I HAVE LEARNED A LOT :)
If you're still reading this entry, I have a tiny little secret that will no longer be a secret................!
I auditioned for XFACTOR PHILIPPINES just for EXPERIENCE. I am not a biritera, but I love making birits ( SAYA KAYA!) and as far as I can remember I have only been in one singing competition and I messed up a lot. We were only two and I just knew from the first note that came out of the other girl's mouth that she will win.
I have no vocal coach, I only practice my singing through singing along with CDs and I am the happiest when I feel like I got the right tune. I cannot even read notes. Oh My! yes I can't!! But I can say I can sing now but not as BIRITERA.
About the audition, I made through level 1 until level 2. My target was to pass level 1 and that was it. and I did. :) I know i'd regret it if I didn't audition. hmmmmmmmmm that audition taught me to overcome fear and made me realize that yes, I do have that tiny tiny tiny desire to make it to music industry. I wish! lol
I went there with Divine who almost made it to PBB, you know!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I believe AUDITIONS are made public because.................... they give chance to ordinary/aspiring individuals to take a shot at what they would LOVE to do :)
I gave it a shot because, yah........I want to sing in a studio :) blooooooooooooooooh! hahahahhaa O_o THAT IS ALL!
I passed level 1. WOW! I never thought I would..???!
Oohhh! I have so many things to share!!! COMING SOON! :)
Sinulog is over and I am posting a late review of how my day went during the Sinulog with a few pics :)
hmmm. this is the first time that I never got to watch any street dancing. We arrived in the city lunch time already. We tried to catch up but instead we got caught up with time since we had to hit the road and go to church as we were actually planning to go to church first and foremost. That's the essence of the celebration. To be with Senyor Sto Nino :)
pictures.....
this is the picture of the Basilica of Sto Nino
I love how lively and festive i looks :)
so I haven't been posting any picture of what I wore in a day for so daaaaays. I just don't feel like doing it because I badly want a new shoes from Jeffrey Campbell and I am still not getting one for myself. I'm frustrated and mad :s but it's okay. I'll get one sooooooooon :) So anyway, Mama bought me new kicks from converse :) YAY! Love it! That day she bought these kicks made my day! I love you Ma. :)
Alright, LATELY..... this are my activities
1st- i don't feel like talking too much
2nd- I haven't been posting pictures/ taking pictures
3rd- I am so bummed out/ stressed about thinking of getting a job but-not-doing-any-step-at0all-to-get-the-job! crazy!
4th- I'm starting to hate somebody
5th- I want to do something but i am afraid of doing it. and it has been on my mind but I keep diverting my thoughts but then I end thinking about it again
I don't know why I am being like a lifeless monkey these days. Oh Gosh! It's 2012~
I know..I know..I am actually inspired but something's really stopping me to do something. hhhaaaay
:s
Leaving a positive note...
I LOVE LIFE NO MATTER WHAT!!! I AM GRATEFUL OF EVERTYHING AND THAT'S IT! ADIOS!
BEFORE I PROCEED I'M JUST GONNA SAY MY GREETINGS!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's the year of the DRAGON! I BELONG!
GOD BLESS US ALL!!! THANK YOU LORD FOR EVERYTHING!
jumpstart to Good vibes!!!!
I'm sharin' about my new love MELANIE AMARO and how I loved her from the moment she auditioned for XFACTOR USA.
I haven't recovered yet from being an over and an avid fan of Melanie Amaro yet because it has infected my nerves even more. It feels as though there's only one more thing I wanna do. TO MEET HER AND SAY MY LOVE FOR HER. Applause her for her good singing and amazing BIG DIVA VOICE! She really has a BIG DIVA VOICE. If I have that voice I'd really say I HAVE A BIG VOICE. She was nervous at the time she stated that. And I get her. LET THEM HATERS THINK ABOUT YOU MORE AND MORE EACH DAY AND LOVE YOU EVENTUALLY MELANIE. Ahhh.. Melanie Doesn't Deserve to be hated. NEVER! She's meant to be LOVED. Right guys?! ANNNYWAYS!!!..Here's a time line I made ( but don't really have specific dates label because I do not know the official release of these videos) as a tribute to my LOVE MELANIE AMARO. Geee I am finally blogging about it. HAHAH!
all credits goes to all uploaders and XFACTORUSA
INTRODUCING MY MELANIE AMARO.
Melanie at the age of 16 singing YESTERDAY
well I actually saw this today. when someone uploaded out of the blue. And me being a fan am so eager to watch it. After watching it finally spanked me to BLOG ABOUT HER. Because the performance here is superb. Many singers out there would sing songs with this kinda pitch and all that but they end up just mumming the words. but with Melanie, I totally understand the song. words are delivered clearly. I love her gestures. I love the way she looks up as if singing to The One above us. Like everyone says, she connects to the song and sings from her heart. and in the end- it connects to her audience. I felt it here.
Melanie Amaro, 18, Sunrise Fl. Auditioned for XFACTOR USA
AWWMAYGAAWD! This is my favorite Melanie Amaro video of all time because I cried, I felt soooo much emotions and realizations and all that stuff any fan would feel deep within. It felt as though she is telling what I was really trying to say all my life. SO FROM THAT MOMENT on SHE WAS my bet and I was hoping SHE'LL WIN THE COMPETITION. Her voice is such a magic. DUDE!
My heart was totally breaking having her being announced second to the last. her reaction was really priceless. She almost hyperventilated oh my. SOO HAPPY FOR HER THAT MOMENT. OVERWHELMED WITH TEARS. But that's what it is all about you do not expect anything. and again....i cried. seriously been crying all through out Melanie's early xfactor journey. hmmm
Melanie singing at Simon Cowell house
She sang a MJ song. Wheee And I can feel the intensity. I knew she'd make it.
BUT SHE WAS SENT HOME????????!!!!!!!!
I FELT VERY WEAK!
OMG! I was really happy I didn't miss the show when this was aired on TV.
AND SHE'S BACK. Simon admitted he had a mistake. People said it was a master plan by Simon Cowell so that the world will notice her and be focused on her. Say Whaa??! SHE DOESN'T NEED THAT KINDA treatment because everybody's eye are on her already since she auditioned! geeee...
WHATEVER IT IS. THERE'S A MELANIE AMARO in the biz already. wheee!
And I love the drama because I CRIED BUCKETS AGAIN. HAHAHAH I'm such a cry baby. huhuhuhuh
On this video, Melanie revealed her accent
Feeling so much comfortable. She finally found release. and revealed her accent. I love her accent!! If she'll be in an interview I'd be like...in awe for sure because I'll have to listen attentively. It's not everyday I get to hear the kind of accent. but I love it. :) British Virgin Islands folks, HalOooo!
and again. people have been criticizing her that after she had revealed her accent, she haven't even used her accent in any interviews. BUT SHE DID! SHE PLAYS WITH her accents. Oh my. And she's got humor. and She's being herself. and that made me love her more.
MELANIE DON'T be distracted with all them anti, they don't have much thing to do in there lives and they're just jealous of you reaching SUCCESS.
And my Diva!!!!
My diva, MELANIE AMARO. ALL GLAMMED UP. Prettified. BLOOMED IN TO A BUTTERFLY!
I KNOW RIGHT?! I KNOW YOU'D WIN! And I am soooooo happy to have watched the show, to have discovered you.
The announcement of the XFACTOR WINNER!!!
She didn't expect it but she absolutely wanted it for sure. and then.....
SHE WON! :)
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
YOU INSPIRE ME A LOT.
MY DIVA! I LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING YOU IN PERSON and WATCH YOU PERFORM LIVE ON STAGE! That is a MUST and on the TOP LIST!
I LOVE YOU BIG TIME! I LOVE YOU MY DIVA!!!! :)
I've always been a fan of singing competitions. I've watched it all my life, but this is the first time I saw a contestant, WHICH IS MELANIE AMARO, who doesn't look like performing in a singing competition to please the people to vote when she sings because NATURALLY, SO TO SPEAK, SHE IS ALREADY A DIVA, a singer/ artist waiting to be known. It's great that she did Xfactor at an age of 18. Thus it's not too late to start the career. I am so happy for her. Oh my gosh!! I still get goosebumps listening/watching her audition clip. SUPER WALANG SABLAY NGA BABAE SA PAGKANTA OI! DI NA MADA UG ENGLISH!!!
MEL, ikaw na!!! Ikaw na jud! Mupalit jud ko ug album nimo. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!!!
I LOVE YOU MY DIVA!!!
as a fan And I am feeling close her ( imaginatively). I am imagining things like, being able to talk to you, having you lurking on my ugly blog. hahaha naaah just a dream. Thanks to twitter by the way! follow her @ItsMelanieAmaro hopefully you'll get a reply. haha
&&
this....
amazing blend
listening to these two XFACTOR babies???! AH MEN! MAKE THIS AN OFFICIAL RECORD PRETTY PRETTY PLEEEAAASSSSS!!!!
I also love Marcus Canty, Drew && Josh
WISHING ALL THESE NEW ARTISTS in HOLLYWOOD THE BEST IN LIFE!!
