How I make my own MILO:

Step 1: put 3 tease spoons of powdered Milo energy drink into my mug.

Step 2: pour BOILING WATER, and then stir.

Step 3: add a cube of ICE, stir, then drink.

Weird? I know.

Why am I like this?

Whenever I have the chance to take a rest at home I do not do it, even though I really feel so sleepy. I don’t know why. I can’t help but to open my laptop and start doing my agendas at the internet, especially here in my blog. And I know to myself that I really need some break.

Just like now, I should be sleeping this moment for my eyes are already closing, yet I don’t want to leave this place.

And most of the time I regret that I didn't grab the opportunity to do it because now I'm having pimples and huge eyebags on my face (just like the picture you see above).


Weird, I wonder why. 

Awkward Punchline

Are you an inverse sign?

Cosecant live without you.

WHY DO SOME PEOPLE PRESS THE REMOTE CONTROL SO HARD WHEN THEY KNOW THAT THE BATTERIES ARE ALREADY LOW?

WHY? CAN THAT RECHARGE THE BATTERIES (again)??

IT'S SO HARD WHEN OTHER PEOPLE CAN'T UNDERSTAND YOUR HUMOR.

Note to self: Buy flat school shoes next time :)

LOL!

Did you know that I walked at the footbridge of Ateneo and Miriam last night with my barefoot? It's because I can't walk with my heels anymore :p

Good thing, the concrete is always clean.

When you meet someone who gets your sense of humor no matter how stupid it may be

Stressed-out

I don't feel good lately. I fell stupid and terrible oftentimes.

Yesterday, I said I must bring my wallet with me before I'll leave the house. I know I placed it inside my closet, so I went there. When I was there, I started wondering why I was there, I paused for a long time trying to recall what I need from my closet. I was about to give up when I finally realized that I need mt wallet. I sighed.

The other day, I told myself I will have an advance reading in my English subject. So I grabbed my bag and got my English book, while flipping the pages I began to ask myself what I will do with the book.

Gezz ... I slapped my forehead! asking why am I like this lately!

Do I lack sleep? Do I think too much? Am I having a brain problem? or the nutrients I in take is not enough? These are the questions I asked myself.

Well, sleeping and eating nutritious foods don't seem to be the problem. I guess I'm starting to have an illness.

What do you think?

nowhere to hide

I saw Shutter Island last night. Now, I am not here to give you a review on the film. I'll leave that to the critics that are quick to find fault. I personally found it to be a gripping and beautifully produced film. Many people are upset with how the movie turned out, but instead of looking at how the storyline could have been I prefer to look at something else.

I don't like to watch horror films. It's not because I find them to be scary. It's quite the opposite. They are far too gory and gimmicky, especially when ghosts and the like are presented. You won't find any ghouls in Shutter Island. What you will see are dream sequences, hallucinations, and tricks of the eye. Which leads me to believe,

The most terrifying place on earth is the human mind.

In the real world there are limits to how badly things can go awry and some of the fears we have in this world are well-founded. On the other hand, the mind knows no bounds. It can manipulate, exaggerate, and deceive. It can cause us to be become irrational about the harmless "thump" we heard in the night. I guess this is why it's important for us to take care of ourselves and look out for those around us, so that we don't become enslaved to the fears that could cripple our beautiful minds.


Try going to an old mental hospital at night and not be filled with an irrational thought or two about what or who could be lurking just beyond that doorway. Imagination can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how you decide to use it.

Do I have to be called a Christian?

I stumbled upon an article today. It deals with a private Lutheran High School that expelled two girls for supposedly being lesbians.

The school had the legal right to do it since they're not a business and therefore don't have to abide by anti-discriminitory laws. The school expelled them because they concluded that the two girls were lesbians. They never engaged in any homosexual conduct while at school, but apparently their conduct outside of school is fair game for their expulsion.

I don't believe that homosexuality is right. I also don't believe that the actions the school took against these girls is right either.

If the school is going to expel these girls for engaging in homosexual behavior in their private lives, then why not expel those who engage in premarital sex as well? While they're at it they might as well expel students who have gotten drunk, lied, or coveted someone else's belongings, because we all know that real Christians never sin. (That was a sarcastic statement in case you
didn't catch it.)

I really don't think that expulsion was the answer. How are Christians supposed to influence others when they're constantly finding ways to push them away?

no, really, I'm cool...

I don't watch Glee. Not for any specific reason, I just never started watching it last year and it's not part of my TV schedule. If someone had every episode for me and blocked off some time to watch it, sure, I'd sit and watch it. I bet I would like it too. However, that's not the way the cookie crumbled. As it stands, I am not a Glee viewer.

Normally this doesn't bother me. When everyone is talking about it, I have nothing to contribute. But I also don't watch Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, Big Brother, and I still don't understand who the Kardashians are - so I'm used to talk about popular shows going over my head.

However, I'm starting to think I will be the last person on Earth who doesn't watch Glee. I think it might be time to do something about this.

Curiosity

"Hey, Mom, When I was a baby and I was inside your tummy, could I see your bones?"

Kids

I love this photo below, but it seems like there is something wrong.




hmmm...

Or is it just me?

pole-r opposites

I just read this post from a friend, and I just want to share it to everybody

Kid: Ms. L, will I see you at the pole?

Me: Excuuuuuuuuuse me???? What is THAT supposed to mean?

Kid: Um, it's like a prayer group thingee. At the flag pole.

Me: Oh. The flagpole. Right. Um, sure! I'll be there in a second.

Kid (walking away, says to friend): What pole did she think I meant?

Friend: Dude, I'm afraid to tell you.

Oh geez.

Life is like Grammar

Interesting.

And frustrating.

But necessary.

Every "rule" isn't really a "rule" because it sometimes has more exceptions than it had "rule" in the first place.

See, with commas, there are very specific instances in which you should use them. In lists, for example:

"I enjoy eating curry, sleeping in, and petting dogs."

But that only applies if I didn't present it with "I enjoy these three things in particular..."

Had I begun it that way I would have to use a SEMICOLON. Or maybe a colon. Frankly, I don't feel like pulling out the book to check.

It's like how you don't use your fingers to eat UNLESS you're presented with chicken wings and/or pizza. UNLESS you're in the company of someone who eats their pizza with a fork. Then you may want to consider doing so, as well, so as to avoid potential embarrassment.

And what about "'i' before 'e' except after 'c'?"

It works with most things like "receive" or "friend."

But what about "seizure" or "species," huh?

Maybe that's the same as when mostly you're supposed to wear clothes that look, I dunno, fresh and clean and new. But sometimes it's okay to buy jeans that already have holes in them?

And then there are the homonyms. "Affect" is to influence and "effect" is to implement. "Stationary" is not moving, whereas "stationery" refers to paper.

Mostly I think that's like how people with names like "Chelsea" or "Amber Lee" were likely born in the Mid-west to East-coast region, whereas people named "Chyelsiee" or "Embur Leigh" were likely born in Utah Valley.

And then there are the grammar-element personality-types. I know you know some.

Dash-people: always putting in their aside comments and silly puns.

"I told her I'd be there - but really I'd rather jump off a cliff! HAHA!"

Hyphen-people: long-winded folk who need a good excuse for a run-on sentence life.

"My brother's-best-friend's-ex's-mom's-favorite-baby-sitter is MY best-friend's-cousin's-cousin and I just found out that her favorite thing is under-water-basket-weaving and orange-mochan-frappachinos!"

Parentheses-people: Unobtrusive individuals who have their own thoughts, but you never really know it.

"Here's that report you asked me to do (even though it's not part of my job description) and I really need your signature on those forms I gave you (two weeks ago) and thanks for the chocolate birthday cake (even though I'm allergic...)"

Ellipsis-people: Melodramatic in nature. They leave you always wondering what they're REALLY thinking.

"You're wearing THAT?"

"What's wrong with this?"

"Oh....nothing...it's just...well...never mind..."

Is it not all the most true?

And amusing?

Oh grammar.

I guess I'd better get back to studying you, now.

From Bad to Worse

I had a cold. the doctor came

and five assistants, too;

They laid ten icy hands on me,

And now I've got a flu.

Many things happened in just one day

After we arrived home from school, There were three significant things happened that day. The first thing is after I stepped out of the car I was horrified when I saw in our garage a dead rat! A dead ugly hard rat! I feel sorry and scared at the same time. My grandma asked me to throw it myself away. but I don't want to. Instead, mom did it for me. Here how it lookied like.



The second thing is we, the family, went to MIRIAM COLLEGE, where mom finished her course. I am getting an application form there when the wheater keeps on changing. When we arrived there it was raining moderately. Mom asked me to bring the umbrella with me so I won't get sick (She wants me to go alone). I did. But did you know what I do? I didn't use it at all. I'm very stubborn when it comes to using the umbrella for my own protection. I don't want to use it because I feel so uneasy. It's a burden for me. So I just ran toward the office like a somewhat stupid with the umbrella on my side.

Now that I'm finished with all the things I am doing inside the addmissons office, I went out. The sun was out and giving me a very hot temperature. The umbrella was still with me. I know how useful it is to many, but I find it useless to have. Instead of opening it, I walked at the parking area and proceeded to our car still stubborn. There was no chance of using it. I'm so in sane, I know.

Lastly, we went to the mall to spend our remaining time window shopping and having a snack there. After eating, we entered National Bookstore and looked at many new released books. There are no other interesting books to buy, not until I finished collecting the VAMPIRE ACADEMY Series and FABLEHAVEN. Luckily, I saw the 5th book of VA. I didn't doubt if I should wait for christmas to buy it. I paid the book with all the allowance I had (it costs 400.00). I don't care if tomorrow there will be no money. Yet I feel so sad taking away my money from me (that is also a reason why I can't reload my cellphone and buy new clothes and shoes, I spend too much for books).

Ok, so there will be one last book to wait for the release of VA and FH.


And that's what just happened yesterday.

Gross!

I hope that there will be an automated door next time I'll enter the cubicle inside the ladies' comfort room (In our school!). I never wanted to touch it anymore after what I had experienced earlier!

I'll tell you why. One afternoon, I needed to pee so I proceeded to the comfort room. As I pulled the cubicle's door, I felt something sticky and wety in my hand. And, Eiiwww!.... There's a booger and a blood (you know, girl thing) stuck on my hand! Yuck, It's so gross!

Is There Any Wonder?

Well of course English is a difficult language when a word like "hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia" means "the fear of long words". Sigh!

back at it

I'm giving credit to WG after reading her funny yet crazy post. Read it. It's totally awesome.

WG: Can I help you find something?

Student: I'm looking for Room 23.

WG: You found it.

Student: Where?

WG: This room. It's number 23.

Student: No, that's where I'm going.

WG: But you're already here.

Student: Where?

WG: Room 23.

Student: Yeah, where's that?

WG: (Sigh) Go ask the teacher next door.
