As I write today, some people are still studying. It is midterms week after all. I just finished mine a while ago and I hope I got it correct… I’m not expecting for a perfect score on that of course cause I rarely get them.

It had been too hectic since I last blogged… Thesis submission, less sleep that day (we skipped class because we had 3 submissions that day - one is the thesis, then an assignment for 3d, then a filipino poem for our Philippine Literature class) We had to skip our Philippine Literature class just to be able to make it to the 3d graphics deadline and be able to submit the thesis as well. The condo was a mess that day. At around 9 in the morning, together with Joyce and Vinno, I went back to the condo and we continued to work. Karla followed a few hours later after she attended her class (Vinno skipped his morning class cause he got up late)

Sigh… Then there’s all the org stuff.. It’s been fun… While it lasted. The fun we had before… It’s gone, now that most of the people I was with before had left the org…

Sometimes I wish I could bring back the past and redo a lot of things. Like hanging out with the entire class like we used to do before… I dunno what happened to the class but suddenly everyone got separated… Who knows…? God knows..

Like what I said in the title, this is one hec-term, meaning hectic term. Org stuff going on especially that it is the first them and we had to at least satisfy almost all the members for them to be able to be attracted to the org and continue to attend general assemblies and stuff… Then there’s school stuff as well. Although the Batch Assembly hasn’t given us any work as of the currently, I think the work will start next term as the Batch Representative said… Then there’s never ending Thesis. This will only end when we finally get a certificate that says, “DIPLOMA presented to….” or something like that. Or with the togas and everything… Yeah yeah, I know.. You get my point. It’s just that, I feel like I want to graduate, but I’m not yet ready. Although I already have plans after college, I feel like I am going to MISS it all. Like how I missed High School (and I still do)

This is the last stage of schooling… At least for mandatory schooling. The next set of schooling will be upon the will of the learner… It had been 16 years of schooling (counting my 4th year this year) and still counting. I want to study after college… Question is, what and where. I got options… But I won’t tell until I actually pass the exams of course…

Sigh… So anyway, I got into video editing (AGAIN) and I made a few clips… Actually, just one.. Anyways, just check out my portfolio… It had increased due to the number of posters I had been doing…

I do hope everyone is doing fine..

Last Saturday, May 31, 2008, the SM Mall of Asia held the Manga’Holix Anime Convnetion. It was the very first convention that I went to and actually almost spent the entire day inside the convention center. Me and onee-chan usually just stick around and look at all the stuff they have in their booths then leave if we don’t like anything. But this time around, I was with Vinno (I forced him to go so I paid for his entrance ticket.. ) Anyways…

At first, I came only with Vinno. Then inside the convention center, I met up with Mag and Lucky (high school friends). Although, around maybe an hour before that, I had already stumbled upon them in the FullyBooked booth… But I didn’t want to get their attention at first because my ex was there and I didn’t know how to react. It was the first time in how many years since we last saw each other. I’m thinking it had been around 3 years or less a few months. And to think that we were still dating the last time I saw him.

Anyways, a coincidence was, me and Mag were looking at the same table and she didn’t even notice me! Again, that was fine with me cause I didn’t know how to act in front of him at that time… We had constant meetings, Mag and the others didn’t seem to notice me… Except for Tere… Although I don’t think she still remembered me cause I wasn’t hanging out much with them during high school…

And so me and Mag (she was with Lucky at that time) finally met by the cosplay stage… That wasn’t accidental this time. I had to give her something so we really intended to meet. Then when they left to look for my ex (Robee is his name), we went on as well. We roamed around once again for like, the 3rd time? Until a sudden meeting occurred. Me and Vinno were supposed to go buying those hats (I forgot what they called ‘em.. ) which they sold for me to buy for my niece and for my pleasure during that event… And while we were on our way to the other side of the convention center,  I really had to bump into him… Well, not that I’m really pissed. It’s just that, that exact meeting wasn’t the one I had imagined it to be… I was thinking that we’d really talk… But then again, I was way too shocked to even say the word “hi” in a lively manner! I just looked at him in the eye and muttered the word “hi”, then I went on.

I was hoping for another encounter that night when we went back to the convention center and met up with Tori and Erin… Mag and Lucky passed by so I called them since they looked really tired (we were sitting by one corner that time). So, I was hoping that I’d finally have some talk with him again and end his guilt once and for all. But, the time came that we had to leave, he still didn’t show up. I was thinking that, maybe he saw me beside Mag, the reason he didn’t come… Sigh…

I left the convention center with Tori, Erin, and Vinno to watch the Pyro Olympics which we didn’t get to appreciate because of the ceiling that was blocking the sky. (Everyone was there supposed to be watching the fireworks but, it wasn’t really something to appreciate because we can’t see! )

Anyways, enough with the drama! I’ll be posting a few images here next time… I still have to grab permission from my friend who had the camera with my pics in it…

The cosplay, by the way, had less Naruto than I expected! There was more who portrayed characters from Bleach. And to my surprise, there was even one from Taiho Shichauzo (Kobayakawa Miyuki to be exact). Although I didn’t like how she was portrayed. For one thing, sure Miyuki was a cop… But, I don’t think she had hand cuffs hanging around her waist.. I think it was well hidden insider her, pockets maybe..?

Then there was this CUTE CUTE CUTE KAWAIII kid who portrayed a character from the anime Prince of Tennis… I don’t know who the character is, I just know that the kid is so KAWAII!!!! *squeals* I’ll put up a pic soon too…

More on the Manga’Holix it self next time when I put up the pics…

Going through a few articles online such as Once More into the Breach, Dear Friends, Once More and read a few other blog posts linked there, and I got more information about my previous post.

Well for one thing I didn’t know that even executives were part of the rally last Friday. So I guess not all people were bothered about it. Not as much. Unlike those who don’t take into interest in these rallies like me and my family. Everything just seemed to have stopped during that time. Well, they might have, considering that employees where there, even their executives!

I was again watching the news last Saturday, I think, while I was at the kitchen waiting for my sister to start baking… Everyone seemed to be looking for the late Cardinal Sin (the former Archbishop of Manila) who seem to have lead the fight during the late President Ferdinand Marcos and the impeachment of former President Joseph Ejercito “Erap” Estrada. He had to lead those fights, right? Because it was for the benefit of all the people in the country. I mean, President Marcos was leading in dictatorship, President Estrada had all these affairs, and his jueteng (some sort of gambling) scandals, all of the houses he owned was said to have come from his corruption back then (which by the way was not as much kept underground if you ask me). So, again, what are we fighting for here? If Cardinal Sin were still here, would he have fought?

Before I would leave my 18-year-old self just in a few minutes, I just realized how little and yet how much I have already accomplished… Whether it would include my future in it or my hobbies… I’ve had a lot… Starting tomorrow till the next year will be my last year as a teenager and I cannot believe how time files so fast. Sigh…

Now, what exactly have I accomplished…? Well… There’s with my food habits… It’s a fact that I don’t eat much when school is ongoing… But when I do, well, let’s just say that I might as well grab a recipe book and cook all the time. And did I mention that I will eat ‘em..? :laugh: Then again, STRAWBERRIES are still my favorite. :yum:

Next would be my love for anime and j-drama… All I’ve been watching these past months had been j-dramas… You ca barely count the anime that I watched. Not that my love for anime is growing weaker, I just don’t find the next anime that I would love… Well, I did recently… Minami-ke. :laugh: What exactly had been my list for this year..? Well… Lets list them out then! :laugh:

• Hana Yori Dango
• Hana Yori Dango Returns
• Hana Kimi
• Bambino!

Not that much I know.. But hey, it’s a start. :laugh:

Friends… Well, I can say that I had my ups and downs with each and everyone of them… But everything turned out all right in the end… :tongue:

As for school… Well, maybe I haven’t been doing my best in a few other subjects.. But I definitely would make it to the list if I just did my best… :sweatdrop: Busy as usual when school is on, but I still try to find enough time for my family, friends and whoever there is out there that needs my attention. :rofl:

I am still your typical girl right…? I still am a fan of those old music, I know… No matter how old a certain thing is and that it might not be the thing that’s popular, there is still this little hinge in me that still says that, “Hey, I am still a typical girl fandomizing this music, right?” You get the picture… :sweatdrop:

Sigh… Last few minutes as an 18-year-old teen… I wish this next year for me will be a more fruitful one since it will also be my last year in college, I suppose…

By the way, I would like to thank each and every one of you who had visited this site for the past year… And thank you for being a part of my life.. There’s still my family to thank as well. And my friends - Kimihatz - who had always been there as well. :smile: College friends… And of course, my baby, Vinno. I love you so much! :smile:
