I haven't finished collecting all published books of Nicholas Sparks...
So as the set of Gallegher Girls by Ally Carter...
I haven't even bought hundreds of books that I listed on a sheet of paper, and now there are more good books being published lately that I also wanted to add on my list.
Sigh.
I have all the time to buy and read them, BUT... I'm not financially free yet to purchase them all! Tsk! Tsk! If only my parents own a bookstore, just look how happy I could be by just reading all the books I wanted for free! Unfortunately, that's not my reality...
Now, I just want to earn big amount of money and go straight there, to the bookstore, and buy those books I've been longing for to have! or you could buy me one ;)
That's all I have in mind tonight.
Good night!

Feel good, you'll look better
 |
It is really true! When you feel good, like when you're simply in your comfortable clothes or you aced an exam or just having a good mood, you are absolutely going to look better! If so, don't miss the chance to take a picture of yourself wearing your bright smile. Just like what I did! I believe that it helps to remind me why I should always keep my mind positive everyday. You know, self-motivation.
So, if you want to look young and vibrant just like me, you should also start being optimistic, and the rest will follow.
Try it! Optional, but highly recommended ;)

I have questions
1. What should I blog about?
2. If one were to ship baked goodies to London, what would one do to guarantee freshness?
3. Would you be embarrassed to hang out with me if I wore my hair in a ponytail every day for the next month?
4. What’s your favorite blog to read?
5. Would any of you want to guest post for me while I’m away in the land of frijoles and tortillas?
6. Would you be offended if every time your friend talked to you she called you ‘fatty’?
7. How can women walk in high heels?
8. What do you eat for lunch?
9. Is it warm where you live?
10. What should I blog about?

Being a Human
It’s not so hard, especially after you realize the following:
1. Don’t deny yourself the chance to do the things you love, because you “have to do” other things. I mean – go ahead – make your own novel and take care of homeless animals!
2. Don’t ignore the people you love and care for the most, even if it’s COMPLETELY unintentional. It doesn’t take much to send a message or text, or make a call.
3. It’s okay to be you, and you don’t have to try to be anything else. I like chips and color pink, and working-out in instead of sleeping and that’s okay. I can go for a jog on early weekends or cook breakfast.
4. You can be or do anything you want, and you don’t have to apologize for it. It’s okay to be proud of what you can do, think and create!
5. Life will always move too fast. It’s useless to complain about that fact.
Top Five Ways to Survive College
Going to college for the first time, second time and even for the last time is a roller coaster ride of emotions. College is never the same every single day. On some days it can be cool and relaxing, most of the days it can be a mad rush of deadlines, written exams, oral reports and papers due. Just having too much of anything can be a big stress for us in our typical college life. In order to avoid this, let me share to you some tips.
Here are 5 good ways to survive college:
#1 Know your priority
One of my interviewees in this article is Miss Joan Jao, a UAAP track and field athlete and a cum laude graduate from De La Salle University in Taft. I asked her how she survived her college life knowing that she played for her school, yet did excellent in her academics. "Paano yan! I did not survive college, nag-excel ako!", she gladly said. Her answer intrigued me so I asked further and listened to every detail she shared. "Know what you want. Decide to prioritize. Take top 1, then focus on it.", she added. She believes that we should set our own goals, guidelines and be determined to follow it as we face our college life adventure. This is easier than playing catch up. Just like when we set a certain grade steady throughout our college career. If we want to get a grade of at least 4.5 in our QPA (quarterly percentage accumulated) we have to do it from the beginning. If we get those grades the first semester, this lets us know what we need to do each semester to keep up this pace and get these good marks again.
#2 Good time management
We are going to need this skill for the rest of our life, not just in school, but also when we start having our own work and family. So why not start early? Time management is one of the most important skills we should master in order to balance the things we need to do and the things we want to do, especially when we are in school. Soon, we will find ourselves with so much free time. How we choose to spend our time can be the determinant for our future success as a college student. "Make every time productive", says Miss Kimberly Medina. She was the captain ball in table tennis in her senior year and also a graduate from De La Salle University with honors and received the 'Athlete of the year' award. "Back then, I used my time in the morning to attend all my classes. When break time, I do all my homework and projects, and I used my time in the evening to attend my training ". She did not waste a minute of her time while she was still studying in college, that is just why she achieved success and survived her life in college. If you are a student athlete right at this moment, you just might want to follow what she did at her time.
Just like her, let us not wait until the end of the semester to complete all our projects. If we do things as we go along, we just have to maintain the pace, which is easier than doing everything at once. I am a firm believer in procrastination, but it always seems to get us in trouble.
#3 Have good friends
Let us admit it! At some point in time we need to be absent in class because of some reasons. The best way to be updated with the lessons is asking our friends about it or borrowing their notes. Not only that, we can always count on them when we need their help. We do not want to be all alone in college, do we? Plus, they can be trusted in any given group work because they want to make sure they contribute as much as we do just to keep the smooth sailing relationship with them.
#4 Just have fun
Yes, we need to study, but we also need to have fun! These are four of the greatest years of our life! So let us get our papers done, stay up late, go to Eastwood and have a blast! "I survived college just doing what is fun for me.", Miss Kathleen Ira, a Miriam College graduate, who was an active student at her time, explained in her interview that College is more of theories. In order for our ideas and learning to expand, we need to put ourselves in the different activities that can hone our skills. Through joining organizations, we can meet new friends and do tasks that we are not only going to enjoy, but will be responsible for it. "I don't like being pressured, especially in school. Once na nagpanic ka, mapaparalyze ka!" That is why whatever she does, she makes sure she is having fun in order for her to have a better output.
#5 Be good to yourself
After all the things we do in school to survive, we should still remember to take good care of ourselves. Having four hours of sleep and an empty stomach or junk-food diet is a big NO! It is still important to keep our body and mind healthy because we use those everyday.
Now that you have ideas on how to survive college, this is the right time to start making a wonderful school year. Good luck!

Trampoline Lifters!
I can never forget this day when our coach asked us to lift the huge and wide trampoline to another place. We walked estimated 80 meters away and the sun was striking hot! We passed through a gate, U-turned, walked to the school's parking lot, and passed through another gate. To my surprise, he asked us to place it near to where it was placed earlier, which was 4 meters away!!! We were like, "Oh, Coach! I can't believe what you made us do today!"
After putting the trampoline down, coach told us that what we did was fine, because it will help our arms to become stronger and we can use it when we are going to lift our flyers. That's what he said. He was even happy that time for we made it!
Besides, there was no other way (except for disassembling it, but it will take a long long time to assemble it again), because there were bars blocking the way and the trampoline won't fit to the spaces anyway. That's why.
Sigh.
At least it was a productive day today!
:)))

I know I am beautiful and everything around me is
Just today, I attended a guidance talk for 45 minutes (because I have to go back to my cheer practice). The Resource speaker who came to school was a lawyer. He tackled so many things about success and hardwork, but one thing from him that I really remembered, and I would like to share it with you also.
The moment you wake up and you face the mirror, if you see beauty, then the rest of the things you see and feel will. By how we look at ourselves affect our attitude, our point of view, and our interaction with the society.
Frankly speaking, I see myself in the mirror everyday as a beautiful creation. Because of this, I feel great! And this feeling affects my mood. The smile I give to people, the kind words I say to them, and the action they see from me are all rooted from how I see myself in the mirror.
The lawyer is right about this. It happens to me. We can even influence other people and do the same thing I do in the morning. There is really someone who has to start this in order to influence others.
This is simple, yet a good motivation, and this can go somewhere amazing!
Remember, everything nice matters.

Dear Blog,
I don't know what to do now. I don't know when to fix myself again. I'm being irresponsible, lazy, and happy go lucky lately. Just now, I am in misery.
I just had the most regretful feeling ever! Last meeting my professor in Philosophy collected the journals of students who have completed their entries. It was actually a surprise! I wasn't able to pass mine because I lack one entry. Today, he gave back those journals and announced to the class that those students who have submitted theirs are already exempted in our midterms and can leave the room now! While those who haven't submitted theirs, including me, well, will have to take the written exam. I was so devastated when my professor said that! What made everything worse was when I saw my test paper and gave unsure answers. I guess I'll flank on this.
If only I completed all the entries, I'll be one of those who were exempted today.
Not only that, before we started answering our papers, he also distributed our quiz papers from the previous day. To my surprise I received a failing mark!!! As in big 'F'!!! It was my first time ever in college to fail a class work! That moment I was already low and wanting to turn back time just to fix everything wrong.
Sigh. That was not my only problem.
I also ALMOST fail in my long test in Biology. I got a score of 55 out of 100 items.
I'm so like WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME?! IS THIS REALLY ME RIGHT NOW?!
I studied the night before, but I guess that was not enough.
Napapabayaan ko na mga academics ko!!!
I want to cry, but crying won't help anything anyway, so I decided not to.
I am also aware that I am no longer helping my family in doing household chores, that I'm being such a bummer at home, that I spend so much money with the things I can't remember, that I become a gluttony, that I no longer prioritize my studies, because I'm happy doing other stuffs.
I am completely out of my mind! I want to return to the real me, the person who I used to be, but how? I am already ruined...

One happy Sunday morning with my little sister
Tricia and I used to quarrel all the time because of one small issue --- cleaning our room. Despite of that, we know that we love each other and I'm happy to be her elder sister. She even runs to me when she's dealing with her problems in school, with boys, with her friends, and etc..
Today, I asked her to join me as we take pictures using the webcam so that I can try the app I just installed last Thursday... and tahh- dahh! here's the outcome.
We just newly woke up that time that's why our eyes look like that :p

After all the things we do in school to survive, we should still remember to take good care of ourselves. Having four hours of sleep and an empty stomach or junk-food diet is a big NO! It is still important to keep our body and mind healthy because we use those everyday.
Now that you have ideas on how to survive college, this is the right time to start making a wonderful school year. Good luck!

Trampoline Lifters!
I can never forget this day when our coach asked us to lift the huge and wide trampoline to another place. We walked estimated 80 meters away and the sun was striking hot! We passed through a gate, U-turned, walked to the school's parking lot, and passed through another gate. To my surprise, he asked us to place it near to where it was placed earlier, which was 4 meters away!!! We were like, "Oh, Coach! I can't believe what you made us do today!"
After putting the trampoline down, coach told us that what we did was fine, because it will help our arms to become stronger and we can use it when we are going to lift our flyers. That's what he said. He was even happy that time for we made it!
Besides, there was no other way (except for disassembling it, but it will take a long long time to assemble it again), because there were bars blocking the way and the trampoline won't fit to the spaces anyway. That's why.
Sigh.
At least it was a productive day today!

I know I am beautiful and everything around me is
Just today, I attended a guidance talk for 45 minutes (because I have to go back to my cheer practice). The Resource speaker who came to school was a lawyer. He tackled so many things about success and hardwork, but one thing from him that I really remembered, and I would like to share it with you also.
The moment you wake up and you face the mirror, if you see beauty, then the rest of the things you see and feel will. By how we look at ourselves affect our attitude, our point of view, and our interaction with the society.
Frankly speaking, I see myself in the mirror everyday as a beautiful creation. Because of this, I feel great! And this feeling affects my mood. The smile I give to people, the kind words I say to them, and the action they see from me are all rooted from how I see myself in the mirror.
The lawyer is right about this. It happens to me. We can even influence other people and do the same thing I do in the morning. There is really someone who has to start this in order to influence others.
This is simple, yet a good motivation, and this can go somewhere amazing!
Remember, everything nice matters.

Dear Blog,
I don't know what to do now. I don't know when to fix myself again. I'm being irresponsible, lazy, and happy go lucky lately. Just now, I am in misery.
I just had the most regretful feeling ever! Last meeting my professor in Philosophy collected the journals of students who have completed their entries. It was actually a surprise! I wasn't able to pass mine because I lack one entry. Today, he gave back those journals and announced to the class that those students who have submitted theirs are already exempted in our midterms and can leave the room now! While those who haven't submitted theirs, including me, well, will have to take the written exam. I was so devastated when my professor said that! What made everything worse was when I saw my test paper and gave unsure answers. I guess I'll flank on this.
If only I completed all the entries, I'll be one of those who were exempted today.
Not only that, before we started answering our papers, he also distributed our quiz papers from the previous day. To my surprise I received a failing mark!!! As in big 'F'!!! It was my first time ever in college to fail a class work! That moment I was already low and wanting to turn back time just to fix everything wrong.
Sigh. That was not my only problem.
I also ALMOST fail in my long test in Biology. I got a score of 55 out of 100 items.
I'm so like WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME?! IS THIS REALLY ME RIGHT NOW?!
I studied the night before, but I guess that was not enough.
Napapabayaan ko na mga academics ko!!!
I want to cry, but crying won't help anything anyway, so I decided not to.
I am also aware that I am no longer helping my family in doing household chores, that I'm being such a bummer at home, that I spend so much money with the things I can't remember, that I become a gluttony, that I no longer prioritize my studies, because I'm happy doing other stuffs.
I am completely out of my mind! I want to return to the real me, the person who I used to be, but how? I am already ruined...

One happy Sunday morning with my little sister
Tricia and I used to quarrel all the time because of one small issue --- cleaning our room. Despite of that, we know that we love each other and I'm happy to be her elder sister. She even runs to me when she's dealing with her problems in school, with boys, with her friends, and etc..
Today, I asked her to join me as we take pictures using the webcam so that I can try the app I just installed last Thursday... and tahh- dahh! here's the outcome.
We just newly woke up that time that's why our eyes look like that :p
