Bataan - Part I

Packed my things for Bataan for two days. There they all are. All in a small convenient shoulder bag.

Bag contains:
~towel
~2 shorts
~5 shirts
~chinese wallet
~Marks&Spencer’s lotion [which actually belongs to my mom /o/]
~bathroom neccesities [toothbrush, toothpaste, 6 sachets of Clear shampoo ;)) — forgot to bring conditioner ;A;, loofa, soap, mouthwash],
~my pouch which I always bring [two inhalers, pens, medicine
~and the camera which I used to take this photo. I forgot to bring the flash in the trip though ;A;

This is the best Xmas-New Year vacation so far. Went to Bataan with Chi and his family and relatives. We stayed in his aunt’s house just beside the seashore overnight. It was awesome. It’s my first time to stay overnight near the shore. So many things I did not expect because it seemed too improbable. And the best part of course is that I got to spend that time with my ever faithful servant – Chi :D Hah! Take that all dae internet habit!
The four of us -- Jonathan(Chi's cousin), Dan(Chi's brother), Chi, and yours truly ;3. And yes, during the whole trip, I was surrounded by Chi's family & relatives only :D

Nat and Dan. Dan as the guardian of the chichirya :DDD

On the way~ Purtie clouds ;3

Chi and I were playing Thumb wrestling when I took this picture. If I win, I get to slap him on his neck. If he wins, he gets to flick me on my forehead...My forehead turned red after a few games. LOL. *I lost ;A;

See that small post like structure there at the center-top of the mountain, near the sky that is overcasted by the clouds? That's not actually a post. It's a cross.When the car that we were riding was still on the right side, I can still clearly see the shape of the cross. But at the time I took out my camera, we were already at the other side of the cross. So the cross isn't really much visible from this side. Awe /FAILS O_O

During the whole duration of the 4 hr trip, mostly all we did was just kaen-tulog-daldal-soundtrip-tulog.

And finally we got there. The place was awesome. It was just in front of the shore. And the breeze there couldn't possibly get any stronger :D

I'm not kidding about the breeze. That's why I didnt't bother to comb my hair anymore :))

Chi and me

~~~

They made a bonfire when night struck. They burned all kinds of stuff scattered around the shore, mostly wood of course :)) It was my first time to stay close to a bonfire. It was awesome. I mean, I really stayed close to it. Who would not? It was freaking cold that night. I was already wearing two jackets :))

As I've said earlier, I forgot to bring the flash. So pictures are oh-so blurry and noisy ._. I swear next time I'll pack the flash FIRST.

Haha. So they managed to make the built-in flash work but it failed us after a while.

Chi and I stayed outside to gaze for falling stars. The one who gets to see the most stars win. But, lol, both of us didn't get to see any :))

MEANWHILE ~ nu ni nu ~

Nat and Dan did some cam-whorring while handling my camera :))

After some time, chi and I eventually got bored gazing through the sky for those stubborn stars. Around 11 pm we both moved to the cottage-like place and made this calligraphy with sand on the round table inside it. He outlined it then I made the finishing touch. Took us, more or less 2 hrs because we finished it at exactly 1 am.

mei and chi :3

creators of this out-of-boredom creation! /o/ both looks uber sleepy. Chi looks UBER FUNNY :))

The next morning we woke up, it was still there :))

Kariton

Colors of the flag :D

What do you think?

Saturdae + Blond wig + Noona is so pretty

Saturdae. Bought a Peppermint mocha at Starbucks todae. Not that bad. Tastes like chocolate with mentos according to Ian. /o/ for me it's so-so. Getting the Starbucks planner is one of my end-of-the-year wishes. That is actually the only reason why I’m buying Starbucks. Haha. I’ve currently got two stickers. I’ve a long way to go.

The dae isn’t really that exciting. Boring mostly. Just played GC the whole dae. Not that I have any complaints with that because I'd rather do this than be stuck with studying. And I also started playing DDRO and yeah ~~ still a noob

Out of boredom, I brought out my blonde wig (my brother’s birthdae gift) which was already collecting dusts along with some of my wardrobe which I forgot I had. I washed it then cut bangs on it. Haha. It looks less stupid with bangs.


It took me more than 3 hours just by fixing those bloody-hell bangs. HAHA

***

also, Ian crashed my house earlier. I heard the English cover of Noona is so pretty from him then learned how to play it.


Ian took these. TY

Listen to Noona is so pretty (english cover) HEEEERE :D

"noona neomu yeppo..
just when I thought I could go
my heart is lost and you're pulling me back again
wishing on a falling star
wish I could be where you are
somehow you came and changed my everything"

MOREOVER, Congratulations, chi for passing FEU's entrance exam! :D YAY YOU.

GRAND CHASE PH NEW TRAILER :D

New Grand Chase video trailer is out naaa! :D

Well, not many may appreciate it. But for someone who can relate, like me, this is awesome news. i'M SO PSYCHED. Can't wait for the new characters: Jin & Sieghart, and for Amy's new job trees! So keewl. Yeepo! I've been keeping an open ear for these news for like months now

FOR ALL GC LOVERS. WATCH WATCH --> New Grand Chase video trailer

Belated Happy Birthdae to me :D

Last time I remember my birthdae was on August 15. I wasn't updated that it was moved todae /o/. HAHA. In spite of the SUPER belated gift, I still appreciate it~




Twenties Girl by one of my favorite authors, Sophie Kinsella.
Lo-lo-lo-looove it ~ love the pink teddy bear gift wrap too. Kawaii :D




haha. It also said Merry Christmas. Two-in-one-gift? /o/

I didn't say thank you when I took the gift. Isang hampas lang then kuha XD.
Thanks, bakachi!

Song Fest

Our last song fest. It is by some means sad being a senior/fourth year student. All events are your last in that school and of course, as being a sensible person, you want to at least make the most of your last year, right?

Song fest. Our class didn’t win as the champion but we did win as the first runner-up. Not bad. Not bad. Still worth all our practices. Congratulations, Dominic for giving all of our greatest effort, for sharing bitter-sweet memories, and for establishing such camaraderie. When the announcer made known of St. Dominic as the second placer, we all reacted as like how a champion would react. Screaming and shouting like crazy as if we couldn’t believe it ourselves. We were like "Weh. Di nga?!" Haha. LO-LO-LO-LOOOVE IT :D And besides, even though we weren’t able to reach our highest goal as a whole, we still gained something that no one else gained – Classmates, do treasure the red ribbons that we used for our props. It is obvious that our adviser worked hard for each of those ribbons.

Last na kakarerin -- One act play. Haha! Well, lot’s of luck for our class. Congratulations as well to all the other class. To St. Maximillian, St. Anthony, and of course to the champs St. Francis. More power to us all :D /o/


i looked better than this during the performance of course. This is already after I took a nice nap the moment I got home. HAHA. I rubbed off my make-up as soon as the song fest ended. But the make-up was nice. Thanks to Bea Hallera of course for doing all the girl's make-up. /hopes someone would thank me for doing almost all of the girl's hair /o/ XD kidding~


okay...now I'm just camwhorring here. Move along ~ XD


I'm not emo XD I just couldn't find a better angle to get a close picture of the ribbon with me actually wearing it XD I love love loooove ribbons. They're all scattered all over my room :D




props we used for the performance. The twenty peso gloves (some with malfunctions XD) and the ribbon that our adviser made for us. We sang "Awitin Mo, at Isasayaw ko" by VST & Co. We were A-W-E-S-O-M-E!

December two ramblings + GC strap :D

Do you ever have days where you regret almost the hell out of everything that you did on that day? Well, for me, this is one of those days. It’s like ignoring a ‘slippery sign’ then you regret ignoring it after slipping embarrassingly. It’s like paying the consequence of ignorance. No, this is nothing serious, just the usual student-school dilemma.

Anyhow, I just ended up going home looking like worn-down. Actually not only like, I really am worn-down. School somehow got really hectic without prior notice. Speech. Speech which I flunked...flunked. Stage performance. More stage performance. What is it with on the go activities and teachers this week?

I think I already had my first glimpse of hell when I first stepped on the grounds of this school, and I was just too naïve and young that time to notice it. LOL

I couldn’t even participate well during our class practices for school’s song fest. My throat still sores like hell. I couldn’t even speak well. My voice sounds like a croaking frog. I even irritate myself whenever I hear myself speaking. Ugh.

Ian and I went to this bookstore after dismissal. He bought some ‘malanding’ stuffs for his project in math. On our way there, we had some small talk and some laughs. T’was fun.

On my way home, I was my ignore-everything-and-just-walk-home self. When I was paying for my fair, this guy from the jeepney station said, “You look tired…” in a droll, trying-hard to speak in english way. I ignored it of course. But while I was on my way to line for the jeepney, I somehow got a little uneasy. After lining I slowly draw my comb from my right pocket and casually combed my hair just to have at least a more decent look.

After getting home I cooked instant noodles, ate, then bond with my laptop. And here I am, typing every ludicrous thought in my mind.

Eunice gave me a small gift yesterday. A Grand Chase strap which she got from, if I remember correctly, some cosplay convention for free. it's still nice for her to give it to me :D



GC. I Labb. The only downside is that it didn't have Amy and Ronan on it. It only consists of (from right-left) Elesis, Lire, Ryan, Lass, and Arme

I'll be updating more about my GC again soon :D



~I used it on my phone :D
~Lucky Bear as my theme on my phone /o/
~And no, that's not Gmask design. Everyone who sees the design of my phone always ask how much I got it from Gmask, and they always have the same surprised reaction whenever I answer them that I only made it myself. Some spraypaint, and ballpen, then...TADAH! My ow design. I also put in my name (as you can see on the lower-right picture). So copying, stealing of design please and thanks! :D
