Oh No! I've Been Tagged (by Jim)

Random 10

1) Burn by Usher - just love it! (I Like Usher)
2) Wherever You Will Go by The Calling - Great! Especially if Michael Cruz sings it but I'm ok with their lead singer ;P
3) Over & Over - by Nelly & Tim Mcgraw - Even if the chorus goes over and over again... I like the melody -- it calms me.

4) Sukob Na - I first heard this as ABS-CBN's song for the rainy season. I kinda associate it with all the my fond memories in the rain with my habibi.

(Suddenly coming up with this is kinda hard -- scratching head)

5) Come Away With Me by Nora Jones - This is one great singer (for me, in this generation) - actually Alicia Keys and her. I like the way they blend in something jazzy and something hip in their songs. It's not the usual songs you here with common themes.

6) Habang Atin Ang Gabi by South Border - They rock!
(Can't think)

7) Awit ng Barkada by the APO - Hindi naman sumisipsip (hehe) but this has been one of the great songs I've heard about friendship =)

8) I'll be Okay from My Best Friend's Wedding - Actually gusto ko ng kalimutan tong kantang to... but this is really catchy at tlga naman ma LSS ka (last song syndrome).

9) You're a God by Vertical Horizon - Wala lng. Astig eh.

10) Kailangan ko'y Ikaw by Regine Velasquez - (love * love * love* )

What is the total amount of music files in your computer?

I had tons really but then since I have to be far away (gulf region) I had to burn them ... now, I can say I have about 40 cds and still downloading some in this computer (nakakahiya pero oo! pang opisina ito)

The last CD I bought is Usher/Alicia Keys. Last money ko nung umuwi ako ng Pinas... it was damn worth it!

What was the last song you listened to before reading this message?
"Only You by Ashanti"

Write down 5 songs you listen to a lot or mean a lot to you

1) Confessions by Usher - I like Usher... Period.

2) If I Ain't Got You by Alicia Keys - She is totally brilliant. All her songs are. This rendition with Usher and so is their 'My Boo' version are both great!

3) All My Life by America - This has been one of our favorites (my habibi and I)... This is a perfect wedding song -- hope I could use it on my wedding day (*wink * wink*)

4) Forever For You by Hall and Oates - Actually, I don't know this band until my bro's girlfriend make me listen to them. In my opinion, they sound like Air Supply only one note lower. It doesn't make sense but I get a bit teary-eyed whenever I play this song because this is my brother and I's 'bonding song'.

5) Because of You by Keith Martin - I know gasgas na ang kantang ito but this is also one of my favorites because my habibi sings this to me - ALL THE TIME!

Who are you gonna pass this stick to? Hmmmm…..(3 persons and why) Hope they haven't been tagged yet and will ride with us..Here goes...

3? mmm... don't know.... people who visits my blog? can't pass to anyone at the moment so if you've passed by my blog and feel like doing it... GO AHEAD!!

Tagalog Muna ...

Mula sa araw na ito, sisimulan ko ng maghanap ng mapagkakaabalahan na madagdagan ang aking kaalaman... Teka, ang hirap mag Tagalog ng diretso kaya Taglish na lang ok?
Ayun na nga, I'm looking for something to do... like gumawa ng beaded wallet or bag (actually, nasimulan ko na ito sa Pinas kaya lng wala naman akong makitang materials na pwede kong gamitin -- baka hindi lng ako naghahanap ng maigi?)

Kung hindi man ako maging successful dyan eh gusto ko ding mag-aral ng Engish Lit or Novel Writing. Wala lng. Trip ko lng. Frustrated writer talaga ako... Frustrated dahil takot akong ma-crticize ang gawa ko... baka kasi sobrang pintasan ng babasa yung gawa ko (ang nakakatakot na marinig na comment eh - Basura itong ginawa mo!!)

Pero kung sa dalawang ito wala pa ring mangyayari, eh baka mag-aral na lng ako ng Taebo. Ang tanung saan kaya meron dito sa Dubai?

Hay naku, plano pa lng mukhang wala ng pupuntahan itong mga naiisip ko... Bad trip.

Sa totoo lng, ang gusto ko lng naman mangyari eh meron akong gawin. OO! Totoo. Kung yung iba sinasabi nila, kung pwede lng na isang araw eh wala silang gawin...Ako hindi. Mula pa Nobyembre wala na akong ginagawa kundi makipag-eye contact sa computer kong natutunan ko ng mahalin (syempre kasi andito sa box na ito ang mga pictures namin ng habibi ko!).

Ayos lng sana ang isang araw pero kung ilang buwan ka ng ganito, diba magsasawa ka din? Sabi ng kaibigan ko, tiis-tiis muna... Matatapos na din naman yang project niyo... Malilipat ka na. Sana nga. At sana sa lilipatan ko eh meron na akong gawin.

Paano ka naman gaganahan sa umaga kung sa pagdating mo sa opisina eh nakatanga ka lng, nakikipag-usap kay habibi (minsan sa sobrang walang ginagawa, siya at siya na lng ang tinatawagan ko. Minsan bad trip na nga eh kasi siya busy ako, petix), soundtripping o di naman kaya eh nagbabasa ng libro. Takte. San ka nakakita ng trabaho na binibigyan ka ng privilege na magbasa ng libro during office hours diba?

Kaya kelangan mag-enroll na ako kaya lng naisip ko na kahit na mag-enroll ako hindi ko rin naman pwedeng gawin sa opisina (kapal naman ng mukha ko pag ginawa ko yun) kasi syempre naman respeto pa din.

Sana lng sa lilipatan ko mejo madami naman kaming gawin ung tipo bang hindi mo napapansin ang oras. Tulad ngyn, kanina ko pa tinitingnan itong relo sa gawing kanan ng computer ... Kalahating araw na ang lumipas... Kalahati na lng uuwi na ako. Hay..

Mag-aayos pa pala ako ng bahay... Shet! Yun na lng muna ang pagkakaabalahan ko.

Blank

How come when I want to write something, it's either I'm not in the computer or I'm really sleepy. I feel the latter now.

@@@

Everytime I'm already in the bus waiting for the others to arrive, a lot of ideas pour in. I even considered writing them down (now, how could I do that when I don't want a pen inside my bag cause it might leave a mark on my too-cute and soo-pink Celine bag) or let them linger in my mind until I reach home. However, it never happens... because I easily doze off and wakes up just in time for them (my busmates) to say bye-bye to me.

@@@

Now, I am staring at this computer... still wanting.... trying... to put my thoughts.... i tried but no... maybe not today...

Sad

Quizzes

Been surfing all day even if my eyes were droopy.... then this quiz caught my attention

WHAT AGE DO YOU ACT?

I'm still young (don't want to reveal how old :p) but then my hubby says I always act immature and at times, childish... Sometimes, I'd ask myself if I am... So, I decided to take this test and look at the result.....

What Age Do You Act?

You Are 21 Years Old

21
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Yup! I'm 21... it feels good to be one... (I feel good.... you know that I would now...)

I'm making no sense in this blog.

Fighting... Siblings... What the?!

Just a few days back, I was in a middle of a fight. Yeah, got that right... It was a misunderstanding between two matured women (btw, they're sisters).

These two girls are flatmates of mine and from the stories they've been telling me about each other, I can easily tell that they don't have high praises about each other.

It was a silent 'word war' between the two of them. Each of them told their side of the stories. I actually feel like I am some showbiz reporter who got the latest 'buzz'.

Whenever I hear them rant about each other. I recall my days with my own siblings. Sure, we fight a lot sometimes we get physical about it but we never plant any anger on our heads. I, for one, don't have it with them.

My brother - I love him dearly though at the back of my head I'm still debating the fact that he should've work and use his course rather than go back to school and study nursing. I have that in my mind and with the bills coming and all family-related responsibilities, I really wish he was working but I still support him - the same support he'd given me when I left them and be with my one love.

My sister - I adore her when she was a kid though now, she's in this difficult stage wherein she answers back or fights back but I still love her and I don't harbor any bad feelings towards her or my brother because they're my siblings!

Just two days ago, these flatmates of mine talked but avoids the topic they've been arguing about.

I just hope they'd settle their own differences because we'd be living together and since they only have each other (for now), it's better to have peace than war.

Frustrated

Well, this week is not one of those 'good weeks' for me. Aside from the fact that I'm not doing anything most of the time.. I think I am wasting my experience and opportunity.

You see ever since I could read and write, I wanted to be a writer. Not that famous (though that could be one of the perks in the writing industry and who am I to say no to that?!) but not that unknown... Something in between.

During my highschool and elementary days, I was just reading books (stop right there... don't think I'm a geek because I'm not. I also go to parties, discoes and also the other fun stuff that regular kids my age do during that time)and how to improve my writing skills. I remember, I was jumping for joy then when my dad bought me a typewriter (sort of new - hand down from my cousin who got her first computer) after a few months, a PC (remember the floppy disk thing? The one sooo big, it was like a greeting card) and a few months after that, a laptop.

This laptop and I shared a 'secret bond'. I allowed it to read my thoughts about certain things... my rants and raves about my family, friends and secret crushes. It also helped me academically of course... It was one of my 'best buddies'.

After I've finished highschool, my friend gave up. It won't boot. I almost cried because I thought, my friend, the laptop became selfish.

I tried to reboot it but nothing.

I decided to leave it like that with all my childhood memories in it. A few months after, my mom gave us a personal computer.

It was more reliable, she said.

So I again started my friendship with the PC and mom was right it was more reliable however, it was hard for me to bring it to places where I find my muse. Unlike my laptop, I was able to bring it to Batangas (where we usually go) and let it also enjoy the breeze.

Still, I gave it the chance to see what I saw while I was out of the house and to feel what I felt when I saw my crush.

Now, the PC has undergone a major 'makeover' - new CD writer, new processor with a humongous hard drive and a new casing. I thought I was not able to recognize it when I came home from a much-needed vacation. I think it enjoyed it's makeover because now it's better.

As I am sure of my relationship with my computer, I am lost with my passion in writing.

I feel my skills are wasted though a teacher told me that going to college and getting the degree you wanted, sometimes doesn't take you to places or positions you've always dreamed of.

Could this be what she meant? Did she mean that I am not going to be one writer at all? How could it be? This is my dream and I really hope that by the time I reach my thirties, I have that dream.

By the way, this is what I wanna buy in the future... please give me the money!!!!!

This is not exactly the one but it's from HP and when I saw it --- I JUST WANNA HAVE IT!

Now this is a second choice though my friend said that it's better to have this because of its durability

Now this is the ULTIMATE! how i wish...

Oh! well...

B-O-R-I-N-G

I'm bored really.

I have been trying to make myself busy or sometimes I guess make myself feel I'm busy.

I haven't done anything of value since the start of the year...

Just a little filing here and a couple of letters there and that was it!I'm not really comfortable with what I'm doing with my time. I should be doing something that I can learn from.

A few "I Shoulds"

- I should be emailing that newspaper company if they accept contributors... I need to make use of my writing skills... It's a bit rusty at the moment...

- I should be reading a book for crying out LOUD! This workplace is so conducive for reading a book. Why? I feel like it's an extension of my place... the only difference is there's no BED!

- I should be contacting my former professor for some write-ups he wants me to do for his newsletter...( I do hope there is some money involved because I also need cash at the moment)

- I should also compose an essay so I could have it publish in one of the newspapers online or maybe make it two for the e-zine that I'm subscribed to.

I think as a budding writer, you need to have lots and lots of published works meaning, the editors (who poses like gods) thinks or feels that the people should read what you wrote...

These are the top four important "I Shoulds" that I need to do but can't find time... why? I'm busy PLAYING!!!

==================

A friend of mine has introduced the joy of playing online. It has been occupying my time ever since.

I hope you do get the pic of how busy we are here (*wink* *wink*)

=================

I think for today I'm not myself because I have this terrible cold. Geez! I hope I get well FAST!

A New Home

After searching for a perfect place for me to post and unleash my 'other' self... I found a place in blogdrive!!!

Still an idiot when it comes to certain applications in the net but I am trying and very much willing to learn the ropes... that is if somebody has the patience to teach me.

MM... not bad for my first entry - a plead for help...
