A cup of hot milk and a plate of Oreos.

Today is my cardio check up day. I went to the hospital to have my ECG and 2D Echo and other examinations. I was pretty shocked when I found out that my father will be accompanying me throughout my check up, since I’d never had my check-ups with my dad before. Anyway, most of my time when we were there at the hospital was spent on waiting and reading. We waited for a couple of hours for my cardiologist.

Anyway, after a couple of hours, I was back in the car with a little wound I got from the needle shot. After the check up, we drove past a sweetened fried camote and pinaypay store. I really want to take a picture of it kasi unique ang supot. Parang Manila Paper na g-fold and glue lang. So after the merienda bash, we went to this place I’m not familiar with because my dad had a conference there, but he just stayed for  a while then we went home.

After a COUPLE of minutes, we prepared to go then went to Redemptorist Church. It’s Saturday and 6:00 pm and my father is assigned to serve at the Mass, then we met my mom and sister. Before the Mass started, I lighted two candles and said my personal prayers. After the Mass, we had a fast dinner at Chowking. I’m starting to like that restaurant though, hehe. And then we went back to the Hospital and got my results and visited my lola at another hospital.

                                                                                                             

So now, I’m here in our room, feeling sleepy and I still have 4 oreo cookies on then plate and a little hot-turned-cold milk. I should sleep now, I will make my assignments early tomorrow. So keep in touch! J

Meet my lola

June 29, 2012- 11:40 pm

So today, I woke up at nearly 9am but I officially get out of the bed by 10:20 am. I have to go to the hospital to take care of my sick grandmamma. When I woke up, I watered the plants, did some cleaning and watched TV-which lasted for approximately 2 hours, because by the time I looked at my mobile phone, I had two messages, one from my mom and the other from my friend. Me being a family-oriented person, I first checked out my mother’s text, and it said: LING, dapat 12:30 nandito ka na sa ospital. It was the shock of the day, because when I looked at the clock of my phone, it was exactly 12:30-HA! What a coincidence. Then I rushed to the bathroom, got into a casual attire-a dotted blouse and jeans-then rushed outside. I was walking so fast though, I was almost skipping-ALMOST. Anyway, I reached the highway in no time and rode a jeep.

When I arrived at the hospital, I was panting like a wet dog who just came home from a morning walk. I immediately sat down and caught my breath-to avoid another MVP(Mitral Valve Prolapse) attack. Then my mom went out to buy my lola’s meds and I was left in the semi-private room with my lola. She was sleeping so the best that I could do was to read a book.

Anyway, after some more hours, I assisted her-with my mom-to do her necessities. After doing the routine, I let her sleep and I sat beside her, on the bed, and I was rubbing her back and shoulders, while I was reading the book. I could say that there was a kind of a lola-apo bond in that scenario. In the middle of the rubbing, she embraced my knee and I was astonished by her act. I don’t want to let go but my feet was near her nose, so I nudged a bit.

After a few more hours, it was time for me to go(it’s Friday and we have a prayer meeting every Friday). So I went out her room at 7:00 pm and paced as fast as I could going to the CAP Auditorium for our prayer meeting.

You know the feeling that you don’t want to leave someone because you want to take care or at least watch him/her? That’s what I felt when I left her room, I want to stay there for the rest of the night. Natatak sa isipan ko yung rule na: Stick with people who are below 6 years old and above 70 years old. To think na 85 years old na ang lola ko-I don’t want to be unattached from her.

She could be my everything-my inspiration, my love, my grandmother.

To lola Obing gwapa. ;)

To my teachers.

After the Miting De Avanci and the results, the support was out pouring. My goodness, I shake hands with almost every teacher I saw. They were just "Wow, Anallie, congrats! Ang laki ng improvement mo! Congrats!", and I was like: grinning ear to ear while saying "Thank you sir/miss". I just don't know how to put it to words, I am shocked, amazed and thankful of how they responded to what I did. They said they were very proud of me. And every time they said that to me, I was like-whoa. I didn't expect na ganun nila ma appreciate ang speech ko.

My goodness, speechless na ako. Hindi sa paghahambog ha, but REALLY, how can anyone be that silent if ang mga teachers na mismo ang nagsabi sa yo personally that you have improved a lot? I am just so overwhelmed na hindi ko na makimkim sa sarili ko ang nararamdaman ko-chenes, unsa daw? But seriously oyy.

I am so thankful sa experiences ko, sa mga teachers ko, most especially sa mga adviser ko na puros English Teachers sukad(g-sabotan man siguro ni nila baah, jeje): Sir Benedict Omblero, Sir Hazel Nono(RIP, I miss you zoo matsh, super. :''( ), Miss Patricia Gonzales and Sir Nino Miedes. Sa lahat ng teachers na nag appreciate and nag support sa akin, thank you so much, gikan jud na sa kasuluk-sulukan sa akong puso. I don't know kung unsa pa akong ingnon, your support and appreciation was so overwhelming. Thank you so much. :) That speech wouldn't that be amazing kung hindi nila ako naturuan ng maayos. :) chenes, hahahha. Here's some pictures sa LIFE CHANGING ko na speech hahahahah, life changing jud.

lami kaayo i scribble akong face baah, luod ayu. heheeeee

Dear LEGION party.

April 11, 2012. That was the day of our first meeting. I don't know them so well yet. Hindi pa kami masyado close that time. Tapos naglaag agad kami sa abreeza. Dun kasi ang aming meeting place. We decided kung anu-ano ang aming magiging Platform of Governance tapos nagpapicture kami. :))

After that first meeting, hindi ko gina expect na magiging super tight ang aming friendship.

Ang dami kong gustong sabihin, seriously, pero hindi ko alam kung paano simulan, i-explain at tapusin. Whenever I remember them, I can't help but to be teary-eyed. Sa totoo lang talaga. :') I thank them for making the beginning of my senior year super fun. To think that I spent almost my whole summer with them. Preparing LAHAT ng mga pasabog namin for the Miting De Avanci. I don't know if ganito rin ang nararamdaman nila for our party. It's just wonderful. I now know the feeling na "words can't explain how I feel". After my 15 years of existence, ngayon ko lang talaga naintindihan ang phrase na yan.

I hate to think that we have to part ways. Naging super close na kasi kami. And if I get the chance na hindi ko sila pakakawalan, I grab it. (lol, psycho masyado pakinggan noh? hahaha)

Sa totoo lang, malapit na akong umatras sa position na tinakbuhan ko, pero nanjan sila to support me along with the other people who are close to me. It's because "their faith in me was my inspiration", nasabi ko na yan sa speech ko, but I'll say it again. And again. And again. In every opportunity that I'll have. 

Parang imposibleng isipin na gra-graduate na ako this March because I don't want to let go of my High School experience, of my teachers, classmates, friends and everything in UIC. They've been a wonderful and amazing part of my High School life-ay no, THEY are my High School life.

Marami akong gusto ipasalamat sa kanila. Marami rin akong gustong sabihin sa kanila.

Almost kaming lahat hindi gina-expect na maging very successful ang aming Miting De Avanci. But thank you sa lahat nang nag support sa amin. :)

Paid off ang lunch ko na junkfood. Ang pagising ng super early. Ang pagkaubos ng aking pera. Ang cramming. Ang kasaba kai dugay maka uli ug sige'g hawa sa balay. Ang pagdala ug speakers sa school kada adlaw. Ang pag ukay sa mga sanina kai wa nako'y masuot cge'g adto'g skwelahan. Ang pagkapuyat. Ug ang tanan-tanan.

Kahit hindi ako nanalo, happy pa rin ako kasi may nanalo galing sa aming party. :) I mean what I say and I'm very-VERY proud of them. It's a great privilege na nakilala ko sila.

Thank you so much for the great, wonderful, extravagant, unforgettable, amazing, and mka-Shella na experience, Legionnaires. :)) You'll always be in my heart.

Thank you rin pala sa McDo(ang aming major sponsor.), sa calenderia sa labas ng school(sa SINUGLAW na dugay kaayo ma slice, na half nalang akong kan-un kai gutom na kaayo ug sa ilang ice candy na lami kaayo na tag singko.), sa aming mga thalad ug ever supportive na mga CAMPAIGN MANAGERS(lab tamo, as in, super, lab jud tamo.), sa mga friends and family ko, kai ate(na nanjan talaga always to support me and to comfort me), kai kuya(na kahit malayo sya, he still showed his support to me), and to mama and papa(na naka-iyak talaga ako kasi they said they're very proud of me.) and most especially to God, hindi ko ma-imagine ang kalabasan ng aming effort kung wala Siya.

Once a legionnaire, always a legionnaire. I am a legionnaire, therefore, SALAD ko. :))

First couple of days of being a Senior.

I'm a Senior. GAAH, I just realized that now. So since the first week is about to end, the next STRESSING THING that is on my list is the elections. I am not that nervous about the Miting de Avanci, but to the elections. Anyway, how did my first week started?

Well, the first day was quite boring because almost the whole day, we just sat there at the auditorium and listened to some orientation talks by our principal. But guess what, from my last year's class, we are 12 in the our new class. So it's like we monster-ed our new class. Our adviser is male though and he's an English teacher. For my four years here in high school, I got English teachers as my adviser (better make my grammar more excellent). He's quite strict though but he's fine. He's just a fresh graduate so I was like-WOAH! Amazing achievement eh? That's quite amazing-reminds me of my last year's adviser.

Since yesterday was our Independence Day, we had no class. So I spent the whole day at the kitchen, preparing for our thanksgiving fellowship at our new lot (I want to post some pictures though, but I am using the PC and it would take a while to post some pics from this computer). We had a great there anyhow, though the sky seemed not to deal with what we're doing because it was rainy that day. But to top it all off, it was fun.

So today is our second day of school year 2012-2013. We made a class pledge, brand and yell. All of these are new to us. I don't know how they came up with this weird system but maybe because of the K-12 System. Anyway, we had fun composing all these stuffs though, really, so fun. But before we composed all these stuffs altogether as a class, we elected our homeroom officers. AND GUESS WHAT?-I am their president. Well, the pressure's on. I have decided that I want to be the president of our SSG and this thing came. But I asked permission form our CSSA that if-THAT IF-I will get elected as their SSG President, I will resign being a homeroom president, though I really want to be. You know, I want smaller tasks but I do hard things.

Anyway, by this time, I guess I should memorize our class pledge, we'll gonna present it tomorrow, in front of all the students. Good luck to us and to the candidates. :)

Pacquiao versus Bradley

I'm not really into sports, but if a FILIPINO Boxer named MANNY "PACMAN" PACQUIAO, lost, that's when I'll take my part as a Filipino. It's trending worldwide in Twitter and it's also in my News Feed in FB that Manny should have won. I was so intrigued by the decision that Bradley won the fight. The Final Punchstat was so in favor of Pacman and so is the decision of many people worldwide. I know I'm not in the state to say that the decision was not fair-it is just my opinion. I think I should get over with this decision though, BUT, I DEMAND A REMATCH. ;))

First picture was on a PressCon. I don't know when and where, I just saw it in the net.

Second picture was on the Official PressCon of Pacquiao-Bradley fight. I think this was taken months ago.

Third picture is Manny Pacquaio, obviously. PEACE OUT Juans! He got this. :>

I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE PICTURES POSTED ON THIS POST.

ALL OF WHICH ARE FROM THE INTERNET.

Thank you Summer 2012

Thank you Summer 2012 for these fun memories. Though it's been tough to get through you, but yea, thanks anyway. It's one summer, that I would not forget. Even though most of the time was spent in school.

The preparations was awesome, I met new friends and I became braver. Braver for the fact that I overcame the pressure of everything happening at once.

Thank you for making me realized that everyone has a potential on what they wanted to be, they just have to discover it.

First picture was taken at Brokenshire College Resort. That was last March 27, 2012-a day before the graduation of my older sissy. I had a red face on that day though, because of the sunburn I got during the "farewell party" with my classmates.

Second picture is the Basement of our school. Taken last April 23, 2012. That was a very tiring yet a VERY productive day to all of us, The Legionnaires. We cleaned and arranged the things there in the basement because its just so messy. And in that room, our Karate do Team is practicing everyday and we just can't help thinking that they are practicing in a very messy area.

Third picture is our Arcuna Family Reunion 2012. Taken last April 28, 2012. This is one reason why I can't forget this summer. the reunion was very successful, though kami lang na magpipinsan ang nag organize on the days of the reunion since our moms and titas are busy at the kitchen. That reunion was the highlight of my summer.

Enjoy little things

Today I woke up at 6am-*snooze*-7am-*snooze*-8am. I woke up at 8am. Because I thought that we will have a practice today at 8:30 am. So I rushed to get there at 8:30 at most. Then my parents found out that I didn't take breakfast, so papa forced me to eat two bananas and take my dose of vitamins. Then I went off to school with papa. And guess what, there are no LEGIONnaires in the school. Panic was serving inside me. I called Lean and he said, "12:30 pa ang practice uyy". I WAS LIKE-O.O . I hate staring smileys but O.O . I was so tanga. Anyway, since I found out that there wouldn't be any practices at that time, I walked for a while around the school to enjoy the cool breeze of the wind. Then I went home.

When I got off the tricycle, I  saw the four little cute cuddly kittens with their parents on our lawn. GAH they're waaaay to cute to describe. And I can't find our camera so you just have to imagine how cute they are. :>

Anyway, I need to go now. Here's my message for you today, enjoy little things, Even though jow bad your day was. Enjoy it. :)
