Hell Yes!

2009-04-15T07:36:00.000+08:00

Summer Loveeeeeeee. :)

Wee. :)

Mr. Confused Kid

2009-04-11T22:45:00.003+08:00

If I don't say this now I will surely break

As if I'm leaving the one I wanna take

Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait

My heart has started to separate

It's 10:49PM.

I was at my bed an hour ago hoping to get some sleep so that I can wake up early and continue studying for my QUANMET finals this Monday. But there's something that's been bugging me so I went down from my room and opened the PC just to blog about it.

When I'm losing my control

The city spins around

You're the only one who knows

You slow it down

I have been madly in love with you ever since. And I know you're happy now. But it kills me to know that you're happy with someone else and not me. Weird as it may sound, I want you to be happy. But I want you to be happy with me.

Am I delusional? Probably. I seriously don't know what is happening to me.

As much as I am very much willing to wait, I do get tired. I don't know if I still have to hold on or let you go.

It's always have and never hold

You've begun to feel like home

What's mine is yours to leave and take

What's mine is yours to make your own

Damn it. I am such a confused kid.

Sorry for being random. I just need to release this. Maybe I should go and try to get some sleep.

Last Song Syndrome: Look After You - The Fray

Summer love, not. :|

2009-04-07T08:29:00.006+08:00

So finals week is coming near (it's actually next week) and I haven't even started studying for it. What is seriously wrong with me? I feel like I've been slacking off a lot this term. Maybe because my mind is at a vacation right now. Haha! Seriously, I get jealous with people saying that they're having a good time this summer and I'm not. Boo DLSU! Boo trimestral system! Haha!

Things that still need to be done:

ENGPHY1, ENGANAL and QUANMET final exams
Submission of ENGPHY1 special project
Module 9, cover letter and resume for PERSEF2
LAmb Manual cover

So help me God.

On a lighter note, even though I don't have a summer vacation, I'm sure that this summer will definitely be a blast again. The Lasallian Personal Effectiveness Program (LPEP) 2009 aka 'The Freshman Orientation' is a month away and I am EXCITED! I'm gonna be an orientor again. YAAAY! :)

LPEP Dates:

May 6-7 - College of Computer Studies

May 8-9 - College of Business and Economics

May 11- 12 - College of Engineering

May 13-14 - College of Liberal Arts

May 15-16 - College of Education/College of Science

So there. I may not be able to hit the beach this summer but I hope I have a blast this LPEP. :) Okay. I have to go to school now. Haha!

Happiness is a warm gun.

2009-04-06T21:58:00.004+08:00

Happiness is a very subjective factor in one's life.

Being happy does not depend on achieving what you want, but rather making the best out of what you have.

Life is not fair. It never was.

The only thing that can make you completely happy is contentment. Be contented with what you have, but be sure to aim high and never stop believing you can do better everytime.

Then again, if all else fails, do not forget that an ordinary you has an extraordinary God to back you up.

I just wish I can do something to make you feel better.

ONE WEEK

2009-04-02T22:52:00.000+08:00

Yeah right.

2009-03-28T00:09:00.000+08:00

My life would suck without you.

2009-03-12T22:51:00.002+08:00

I finally found my home again. And this time, I won't be losing it. :)

--

I felt like a full-fledged engineering student again these past two days. It has been a while since I went to hang out at the Velasco Walk with my block mates. It's nice feeling like I belong at Block EM again after being on my own for the past term.

--

Yesterday, I made my very first printed circuit board (PCB) the old fashioned way. Haha! Eventhough it's tiring because you have to agitate it hard (when I say hard, I mean THIS HARD) in hot (HOT HOT HOT) water, I had fun doing it and mine turned out very gorgeous. Haha! Sadly, my La Salle 2007 UAAP Basketball Champion shirt was stained with ferric chloride so I have to say goodbye to it. :(

--

I'm now hooked with playing Jam Legend. Basically, it's like Guitar Hero except that it's online. It's super addicting! Swear! You can try playing here. :)

--

So yeah. This has been so random. :)) I hafta sleep early cause tomorrow's the St. Jude Catholic School Campus Tour so I hafta be early at school! :)

Four more weeks ..

2009-03-11T07:01:00.002+08:00

.. until freedom. :)

--

This term has been hell for me. With three majors and one pa-major classes, 24 hours in a day seems not enough.

Things that still need to be done this term:

Major quizzes in ENGANAL, ENGPHY1 and QUANMET
Special project in ENGPHY1
Papers, papers and more papers for PERSEF2
Two required and two elective experiments for LBYPH11
Synthesis paper for INTFILO
Final exams for ENGANAL, ENGPHY1 and QUANMET

IJUSTWANTTHISFREAKINGHELLTERMTOEND.

Let's get these teen hearts beating faster.

2009-03-09T20:40:00.003+08:00

Tomorrow's a bummer day. : I have a major quiz in ENGANAL plus a major group report for INTFILO. I haven't even studied for one. Great. Good luck to me!

--

Alumni Homecoming was a blast! But since I'm really busy right now,

I'll try to give the full story probably tomorrow. For the meantime, here's some pictures. Haha! More pictures here! (for contacts only though)

Wala nga kasi talaga.

Kasi hanggang ngayon, hinihintay ko pa din yung time na bigla ka na lang mauntog at marealize na we're perfect for each other.

Kaso mukha atang malabo yun. :

Save the tub! Save Kyle XY!

2009-03-04T09:27:00.003+08:00

ABC Family is changing directions and Kyle XY just doesn't fit into their plans. They want to attract young girls and women, so all of their programming will be geared towards it. It's unbelievable, but true. Even with no promotion, over a million people managed to tune into Kyle XY this season, yet the station can't find a place for it on their channel. It would be a shame to see such a wonderful program left unfinished, so fans around the world are working together to save it. Go to www.savekylexy.com for mor information.

In times like these..

2009-02-24T18:52:00.004+08:00

It's nice to have people who'll keep you cool despite the insane world. :)

It's been too long and I'm lost without you.

2009-02-23T18:32:00.000+08:00

Guess who's freakkkking backkk! Hahaha!

Sorry if I have been gone really long. As if someone's on watch here 24/7. LOL. Blame school for making me really busy. Major subjects are a pain in the arse. And as much as I love staying at La Salle, I can't freaking wait for summer. :) Oh, did I just say that I don't have a summer? Bummer. :))

I'll promise to update you guys on what's new to me ASAP. I just have to finish my freaking Philosophy assignment.

So keep ya love locked down.

2008-10-07T16:06:00.005+08:00

SATURDAY

I had to go back to La Salle since it was the Lasallian Ambassadors Examination. I haven't studied anything since I arrived at our house late and I fell asleep fast. Upon reaching Yuchengco fourth floor, I immediately borrowed a LAmb Manual from Lilai so that I can study. After 30 minutes, we had started taking the exam. To be honest, it was VERY DIFFICULT! I haven't even studied the Lasallian Action and Formation Framework and it was included! Plus the Vision-Mission of De La Salle University!I was like "WTF! I don't know anything!" Good thing I was able to memorize the names of the college deans and vice-deans as well as the different directors of the Student Personel Services offices, thanks to my ushering stint at Gawad Mag-aaral.

Depressed after the exam, Gelli, Xing, Pixie, Ave, Louie and I decided to eat at Flaming Wings. Ave was so lutang that day. She was asking how to go to Makati by car. So we said that from DLSU, go straight to Buendia and then turn right to make a U-turn and in a few minutes, she's in Makati already. Then she said she'll be going to Valle Verde which was in Pasig. Then Pixie told her that she can follow her car since Pixie lives at Pasig. Then, she called her friend and said that they'll meet-up at Dasma Village, in Makati. She was so sabaw at that time we were actually laughing at her.

We have to cut short our lunch bonding moment since Xing and I have to watch Ballet Manila's performance of La Fille Mal Gardee at Aliw Theater. Since we were so afraid of being late, we've decided to take a cab. Upon arriving at Aliw Theater, I was not allowed to enter since I was wearing flip-flops. We were supposed to go to Harrison Plaza to buy shoes but we've decided to go with the rush of people going inside the theatre. The stupid guards din't even notice me! HAHAHA! :) So we were able to watch the show. It's not spectacular, but it's not bad either.

Probably the best thing about the ballet is that the ticks can be exchanged for ride-all-you-can Star City tags! We got so hyped up, especially Xing since it has been ten years since she last went to Star City. So we almost rode all the rides and what's funny is that we actually got dizzy at the carousel ride. HAHAHA! :) I'll post pics when Xing has already uploaded them. :)

TUESDAY

Today was the campus tour for the De La Salle Santiago Zobel School junior students. I'm so proud of myself because it was my first time to conduct a campus tour in STRAIGHT (Yes, people! No tagalog words, no code-switching!) English since half of the Junior A students are Korean. I'm so proud of myself. HAHAHAHA! :) Eventhough I stuttered once, Pixie was able to save me. Thanks Pixie for being a great partner! :)

Work it harder.

2008-10-03T23:48:00.003+08:00

Today was a really busy day.

I had to go to school today since its the Aspiring Lasallian Ambassadors General Assembly. I nearly came late due to the ongoing construction at Vito Cruz. Good thing I wasn't because I was assigned with Mox and Ernest to lead the icebreaker. Basically, what happened at the GA was that the core explained the screening process for all the first timers and for us, non-first timers, we had to sign up for our examination and Group Simulation 1 as part of the deliberations.

After the GA, I had my lunch with my usual UBE buddies at KFC. After the lunch, we had decided to chill at the North Conservatory because we were waiting for Gelli since she had to do her video project for VIDORGA and she chose me and Xing as her "talents". :)) While at the North Conserve, the girls had a little chat and since they had some really funny quotable quotes, I had written them down and now I'll be sharing them to you. HAHAHA! :))

Those in bold are my favorite quotes of the day. HAHAHA! :))

Situation: Jessa, Pixie, Zahra and Xing having their "girl talk" at the North Conservatory.

Xing: Slow down. Technically, he's a kid.
Jessa: Technically, I'm a technician.

Pixie: McCoy, as in McCoy talaga?
Jessa: McCoy, parang Mc Donald's.

Pixie: Ako yung single dito. Maawa kayo sakin. Pwede yung ka-age ko naman.
Zahra: *holds Pixie's hands* Pixie, PLAYTIME lang!

Pixie: How are we gonna go to my place?
Xing: Baka they have a car.
Jessa: May car yung teammates nya.
Zahra: Tang ina! SAUSAGEFEST!

Zahra: Gusto ko Redhorse.
Jessa: Hmm. Redhorse? Sisipain ka nun!

When a guy crashes a girl talk:

Zahra: One sausage please!
Pixie: One sausage lang?
Mark: Sausagefest naman eh. Eat all you can!

After our chillax moment at the North Conserve, Xing, Louie and I went to the Amphitheatre to help Gelli with her VIDORGA project. We had to shoot a one-minute film and mind you, eventhough it's one minute, it's really tedious to do!

After the shoot, we headed to Mc Donald's to have our dinner. After an our, we've decided to go home. But damn. I was able to ride the bus after an hour! And I was standing up! What pissed me off big time is the sleeping guy who used my buttcheeks as his pillow. Talk about being harassed. HAHAHA!

Oh well. I should go review now for my exam tomorrow. Before I leave, I'll be sharing you my current LSS, Jennifer Hudson's Spotlight. Damn, this girl is really talented! :)

Extended term break

2008-10-02T16:09:00.005+08:00

Boredom is killing me to death. Haha! As you all guys know, my classes are only Mondays and Wednesdays since I'm taking up only floating subjects this term. And last Wednesday, we had no classes since it's Eid ul-Fitr. So technically, I have no classes from Tuesday onwards.

Well, tomorrow onwards will be a busy day for me. Tomorrow, we'll be having the Aspiring Lasallian Ambassadors General Assembly to discuss the processes the first timers have to undergo before they become a LAmb. On Saturday, we'll be having the LAmb exam. After the exam and Xing's qualifying exam for her course, we'll head straight to Aliw Theater to watch Ballet Manila's rendition of La Fille Mal Gardee. On Sunday, I'mma go party again cause it's my friend's birthday. Haha! :)

Anyways, you know what I'm craving right now?

Krispy Kreme's to-die-for Doughnuts! Waah! I'll go buy a box tomorrow. Haha!

Happy birthday Carlos Miguel Cocjin! :)

Rain, rain, go away.

2008-09-24T21:38:00.003+08:00

I'm stuck here at the South Conservatory because of the ~~stupid~~ rain. Can you please stop for like a minute? I want to go home, you know.

Anyways, I'm enjoying Plurk! Haha! :)) Add me if you haven't! See my sidebar for details. :)

Okay, this is random. Hahaha!

Can you keep the ANIMO burning?

2008-09-20T19:58:00.005+08:00

Are you a bonafide student of De La Salle University and currently enrolled in an undergraduate course?

Do you have at least 5 terms left before graduation?

Do you have a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of at least 2.0?

Then, you can be part of our family! Join the Lasallian Ambassadors from September 22 to 26 at the Central Plaza.

For more details, join the yahoogroup aspiringlamb2k9@yahoogroups.com.

Keep the ANIMO burning and be part of the Lasallian Ambassadors! :)

Sidelines

2008-09-16T20:22:00.003+08:00

Oh. I've made a Plurk account a while ago. Haha! Add me! :)

And, can you answer this question?

Who's the first person you think of when you wake up and the last one before you go to sleep? Why?

Yellowcabs and Virgin Suicides

2008-09-16T15:57:00.003+08:00

I had a talk with my friend, Xing, yesterday about our other friend (which I'm not naming, haha!) whom we think has a crush on her. We had agreed that if the guy courts her, she'll be treating me with a pizza from Yellowcab. If not, then it's not. Haha! :) Basically, its a win-win situation for me. Haha! :) She says that our speculations are not true but we are seeing some tell-tale signs that the guy actually likes her, but aybe he's afraid to move because we're a barkada and he's probably shy expressing his feelings in front of us.

To you, my friend, MOVE or BE MOVED. HAHAHA! :)

Today, I do not have any classes since I only have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays. So Xing and I went to Robinson's Place Manila to buy her sister a USB as well as to find myself Jeffrey Eugenides' book, The Virgin Suicides. I just finished reading Chuck Palahniuk's books, Haunted and Rant. After buying the stuff we need, we ate lunch at Teriyaki Boy and went strolling around the mall. I was surprised to see my blockmates there. I suppose they're going to watch a movie but I was not in the mood to watch one.

On an annoying note, my LASARE2 was moved from yesterday to November 15. I was waiting at Y402 yesterday but there was no familiar face inside so I checked my MyLaSalle account and found out that the schedule has been moved. Screw LSPO for not informing us on advance! I was late for my KASPIL2 class. Dammit.

Oh well. Basically, that's how my two days have been. Blame me for having a very boring life. Haha! :)

Do I smell pizza? HAHAHAHA! :))

Hello Second Term! :)

2008-09-10T19:55:00.000+08:00

Second term has officially started at DLSU. Let me tell you how my first day went.

Preparation

I woke up around 4AM since I have to prepare my things since I'll be staying at Manila until Saturday due to the DLSAA Lasallian Excellence Awards ushering job that I have to do on Friday. I left Cavite around 6AM and arrived at Manila at 7:30AM. After setting my stuff at my dorm, I immediately went to school since I don't want to be late on my first day.

KASPIL2

My first subject was KASPIL2 (Kasaysayan ng Pilipinas 2). My professor is the funniest and coolest professor I have ever known in the entire Lasallian community. Haha! :) He hasn't introduced himself since he was very eager to share some of his life stories. Although the subject was a tad boring, our professor makes it quite fun by interjecting some Spanish words which leaves us in amazement. Haha! :)

ENVIENG

ENVIENG (Environmental Engineering) will be the last Engineering course I'll take (aww). It's fun because it focuses on environmental problems and how technology can help solve the problem. Probably after this course, I'll be an active Greenpeace/WWF volunteer. Hahaha! And did I just mentioned that our field trip will be in Puerto Galera and we'll be cleaning the coral reefs? How cooooool is that?

TREDTWO

TREDTWO (The Christian Filipino in the Changing World) is okay, but not the professor. His jokes are so failed. Plus, he's a Harlequin wannabe! I hope I can survive one term with this boring professor. :(

FILDLAR

Our class for FILDLAR (Filipino para sa Iba't-ibang Disiplina at Larangan) was short, since it's just the first meeting. Our professor was very funny and I hope I have a good term with her.

Lunch

I met up with Xing and Louie after my FILDLAR class to have lunch around 2PM since my classes were straight. And since my next class is at 4PM, I've decided to sit in with their SPEECOM (Speech Communication) class. But they had a free cut with SPEECOM so we decided to hang out at Z2 cafe.

HUMAART

After hanging out at Z2, we went to Yuchengco Hall to go to my last class which is HUMAART (Introduction to Art). The class was also short and we were required to watch Ballet Manila's rendition of The Naughty Daughter. Since we have to create a midterm reaction paper about the performance, we have to reserve tickets early. I do hope we get one!

So basically that's how my first day passed. I'm promising myself that I'm not cutting any of my classes this term and I'll get high grades. So help me God!

OffT: CSB placed second runner up at the 2008 NCAA Cheerdance Competition. ANIMO! :) Mapua placed first runner up and Jose Rizal University emerged as champions. I wonder what happened to Letran and Perpetual? Geez. I have to watch their performances ASAP!

Bye term break! :(

2008-09-09T21:57:00.002+08:00

Ugh. Second term at DLSU will officially start tomorrow. Just as I'm getting the hang of term break (this is the longest term break I had: 11 days), it's now back to school for me. Although I'm loving my schedule (Mondays and Wednesdays only!), I'm still on the process of unwinding after a strenuous term. Oh well, I just wish I wake up early so that I can make it in my 8AM class. Haha! :)

I got it. You got it. We got the magic.

2008-09-08T15:00:00.000+08:00

I was able to watch the 2008 Samsung-UAAP Cheerdance Competition yesterday at Araneta Coliseum with my friends, Gelli, Migxz, Louie and Renz. I was really happy that the DLSU Animo Squad was able to present well! :) A few pyramids, more exciting stunts and synchronization and we might be able to give UP and UST a run for their money! Haha! :)

On the other hand, I was very surprised with UP's performance. The 'get away with the usual cheerleading' theme worked well for them. It was nice to see the combination of cheerleading and cultural routine. UST was classy as always. Very polished and snappy but they lacked the oomph factor. FEU was polised but the fall on their last pyramid was very disappointing for them.

NU was great! No major blunders for this year! The fearless award goes to Adamson for their daring stunts and pyramids. The Ateneo Blue Babble Batallion was also great. They're getting better and better every year. UE's use of the umbrellas was a bit tacky for me.

Now, I'm looking forward at the NCAA Cheerdance Competition this Wednesday! I'm a Letran fan eversince. Haha! :) I hope they get the championship this year.

Give me something to believe in.

2008-09-06T22:28:00.001+08:00

She says she loves me.

But I know she says it to someone else.

Damn it. Wag kasing paasa, okay.

Smile.

2008-09-05T23:43:00.001+08:00

While I was doing my usual stuff at the Internet:

BUZZ!
Mark: Hey!
Y: Hey (some nickname that's just for the two of us to know :P)!
Y: How are you?
Mark: I'm fine.
Mark: How about you?
Mark: I haven't heard from you in ages! :)) How's London?
Y: London's fine.
Y: But I'm back now. :)
Mark: You're joking!
Y: No I'm not!
Y: I'm back for good.
Mark: Really. :)
Y: Really.
Y: So, I'll see you tomorrow? :)
Mark: Okaay.
Y: Same place, 8:00. Is that fine?
Mark: That's perfect. :)

Guess I have another reason to smile. HAHAHA! :) Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. :))

Queries answered.

2008-09-04T19:44:00.000+08:00

Why move again?

I stayed with my previous blog (makeenetics.blogspot.com) for two years. I felt the need to create a new blog since I felt that I was not the person I am writing about in my blog (if you get what I mean). Also, you can see most of the stuff I post there in my Multiply account. And besides, change is a great experience! So I'm having a fresh start with life in this blog. :)

Why 'Three Way Intersection'?

Apparently, there's no specific reason on why I chose Three Way Intersection. I was browsing Wikipedia this morning (which is one of my weird habits) and I came across an article about intersections. I read about the three way intersection and it sounded cool to my ears hence I used the name Three Way Intersection. :))

What can we expect here?

Ugh. Go read the sidebar! I'm tired typing. Hahaha! :))
