Hey there! I’ve been away for exactly a week due to server problems… But, obviously, the server is now fine..

So, what had I been up to the past week… Well, OJT is.. Well… Still boring… School… It’s starting next week… Then I just accepted to be VP - Communications for our batch… I just thought that since I am already in the spamming business for the next year due to Moomedia, might as well do it for the batch…

Websites… I had been way too late in updating my website, namely Tomoeda… And in launching our website (in collaboration with my two sisters)… Although, I recently just finished (just minutes ago) my sister’s blog… Visit it! click click click!!

Food trip! I’ve been cooking the past days… Last Sunday I made crep batter and crep itself… Then just last night, I was so bored since my oldest sister isn’t around, as well as her husband (for short I had the entire condo for myself *evil laugh*) And I bought pork chops last Sunday as well so I decided to try something… I tried cooking my favorite recipe for pork chops… Pork steak… I found a recipe online and followed as it said.

I had the pork steak for lunch a while ago… And I was SO satisfied with the outcome… Even last night, I was so tempted to eat since it smelled SO good! But no, I pulled myself together and didn’t eat in the end…

You guys might want to try it… The recipe can be found at Pinoy Cook: Filipino Food and Asian Cooking

You might want to try to put in the soy sauce and the garlic you used for marination after the pork had been cooked for a little soup. I love it that way…

This is great, especially if you would like to try something new for dinner… Or maybe for lunch… This is one of the Filipino foods that I’d love to learn how to cook… Next stop is Adobo…

As for the crep, I’ll link the recipe next time…

I’m back again… And this time, it’s not 3 in the morning! :laugh: Anyways, the theme of this site is from my younger sister… I was talking to her the night I made this layout and asked for any suggestions… And she said coffee break. That’s the theme… So I searched the web for an image… And I found one from Starbucks and manipulated the image a bit for it to fit in my layout… Although I didn’t do much of it… :sweatdrop:

Also, while I was thinking of a theme for the site and how it would look like, I found a site which inspired me. It was just a very very simple blog, just white and had 1 main image. Very simple and I loved it. That is the inspiration of this layout… :smile: Here’s the like if you guys want to see the site.

Sigh… Again, I am a lazy person. I tasked myself to do our related literature for our thesis today at around 5 and I wasn’t able to do it… I was out that time… Not that I minded cause I was really supposed to go out today… But anyway… That aside…

Gah. I really need to get to work… I need something to motivate me to work… Problem is, I have none. :frustrated:

[EDIT] I have finally finished fixing the layout. I hope nothing else goes wrong… :smile: Umm… I said I’ll start doing our related literature by 10… But it’s already almost 1 and I still haven’t done anything. :laugh: Sigh… I REALLY have do it tomorrow… My groupmates will kill me… :sad: [/EDIT]

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:

I wasn’t able to post an entry about greeting you guys for the New Year so here it is…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I was in a vacation to the coldest part of our country till the morning of the 31st and just got home the afternoon of the 31st as well.. So I wasn’t able to blog… Another reason is because we don’t have internet access there - except for Starbucks but it’s a bit far from where we stayed and we usually only stay there for a few minutes after getting our drinks then we leave…

The vacation was short… And everyone really wanted to stay for another couple of days… But as we left late, we leave early.. Meaning we can’t extend anymore because it’s already the eve that day we left… Also, we can’t extend anymore because with the duplex where we were staying, another set of tourists will be renting it… So yeah…

What exactly did I do during that short vacation out of town…? Well… Lets see… I slept, I ate, I played Phoenix Wright on my sister’s Nintendo DS (which actually makes me want to buy one because of that.. :laugh: ), I did a few activity papers for next term, I played Mini Golf, and then I ate, and slept, and ate, and slept… :laugh: That’s it.. :rofl:

2008, another year… My last school year in college will begin in the year… And then, I will become another one of those “unemployed” people… Not that I don’t want to work… Somehow I’d like to work already than be stuck in school… But thinking about it makes me wonder if I would ever miss school once I am out of it… Sigh… Then again, I do have a goal of attaining a Masters Degree… Something related to what I have started. Everything that I took up in college will be like my stepping stone to my Masters.. I’ve considered looking for a university outside the country that had the courses under Video Editing, or, more Multimedia… I’m still not sure…

2007 had been a rough year for me… A lot of challenges occurred… A lot of tears fell… I don’t know about 2008… But one thing is for sure, tears already fell from my eyes on the very 1st of January… And on the eve of the 1st, I wasn’t feeling good… Sigh.. I just hope that that is not a sign to anything bad this year.. I need to be healthy enough for our thesis cause I am sure that’s a total of 3 terms no sleep… :cry:

I was searching the net just for fun as I was a bit bored today - nothing to do, my niece is already asleep, my sister is using the computer upstairs… I Googled my name. As in my real nickname… And surprisingly, A LOT of people have the same spelling as my name…! Well, a lot of people have the same name as I do - as in the pronunciation… But I never thought that I had a lot of people with the same spelling… I just thought that my sister had the most unique way of creating names with unique spellings… :sweatdrop: But anyway, not that I’m pissed about it or something… Why would I? I just found it a bit surprising… Ahehehe…

Anyway… I hope that what ever is in store for each and everyone of us for this year, I just hope that we all learned something from our mistakes the past year… And hope that we won’t repeat them again.. :smile:

Thank you everyone for a great 2007, and have fun on another great year of 2008! :grin:

Tomorrow, I am headed back to the city to continue with my studies… Classes start next week, Monday… And you can clearly say that I haven’t yet got the vacation that I wanted… Sigh… Well… What ever can I do… Sigh…

As usual, I am stressed. I haven’t eaten anything healthy since Friday night. I can’t even remember the last time I ate properly… :sad: All I know is that it’s been days…

So, speaking of food… I just remembered that of the year 2007, I don’t think I ate, not even a piece, of my favorite fruit, Strawberries… And with this urge to be able to eat something strawberry, I always order Strawberry shakes… And just tonight, I remembered that, I wanted to taste the Strawberry Shortcake type of cake… Redundant, I know… But hey, seriously… I want some strawberries and cream… :cry:

From searching the net maybe to relax a bit… Or maybe to starve myself even more, I searched for a picture of a Strawberry Shortcake… And I found different kinds of these cakes… I always thought that they’d all look the same… :sweatdrop:

And speaking of being stressed, you might call me crazy for saying this, but somehow, even though I’m way stressed to the point that I don’t know what to do and I’m already having a mental breakdown and not being able to get ready for any quiz, I enjoy coding our web application… :sweatdrop: I don’t know why… Maybe it’s part of the reason that this is one of the fields that I would like to excel in… To the point that I won’t have to take a peak into anyone else’s codes just to get things right… And yeah, I will enhance this skill… This Christmas break, if I won’t be way too busy with any org stuff, I will be coding our Uncle’s website… :grin:

And here’s an image of what I have been coding on since Friday night… (the cause of my lack of sleep… :sweatdrop:)

Whops… Looks like it turned out to be pixelized… I though my cam took a better image… :sweatdrop:

—-

As you would notice - for those who went and visited my Multiply Site, I am implementing the way I blogged there to the way I blogged here… :smile: Why? I don’t know… Because I don’t blog there anymore… :sweatdrop:

Anyway… Back to work…
