Trimming my hair

October 30, 2012-1:58pm

Two weeks ago, I was planning to go to a parlor and cut my hair. I was so thrilled with the thought that I could finally-FINALLY-cut my hair, after a year (or more). So yes, I was telling my sister about what hairstyle I want to have and while I'm sharing it to her, she was like: No, if you'll cut your hair, I will cut head., and I was like, WHOA-hahaha, she likes my hair more than I do.

Neways, she was making some hairbands* while we were talking and she told me to try one. So I borrowed one and I put in on my head, and guess what-IT LOOKS SO PERFECT WITH LOOOOONG HAIR. Then that started my decision make over.

Now I am not sure if i should cut my hair BIG TIME. But anyways, I started trimming my hair and guess what, I got addicted in trimming my hair. Well yes, by that, I think I may not go to the parlor and just do my own hair instead. You know if my hair would not turn out right, I got no one to blame but myself. Mehee

So yea, two days ago, I started trimming my hair. And I got some very impressive results. Though you may not see the difference on your first look but with further scrutiny you would be able to see some changes. :D

Now I have my initial conclusion, I will not cut my hair but I will wait for college for that BIG TIME hairdo I'm waiting to have. So for now, I will just experiment some hair styles for this long hair of mine. ;)



*these are the hairbands my sister are making. There are I think 53 hairbands already.

Be a blessing.

Needs Improvement

October 29, 2012-12:48pm

Last night, I watched the Halloween Special of Kapamilya Channel. All of them went to bed ahead of me so I was alone watching that show. Neways, I went to bed past 1 then I saw it.

There, near the phone of my sister is our greatest, mortal enemy-the cockroach. The first thing I said upon seeing that creature was "Te! May cockroach oh!" Then with just a flick of a finger, my sister shot up from her sleep. HA! I knew it, when it comes to cockroaches, my sister alwaaays have that eekie feeling around them. She doesn't want to go near a cockroach 1 meter circumference (nerd alert). So I am the one who must be brave in facing that creature.

What I did was I got an alcohol and a sprayer. I detached the head of the sprayer and of the alcohol and I swapped their heads. So I made myself an ultra mega super duper effective alcohol gun. The making of that alcohol gun was the beginning of a 20 minute battle with that creature. Good thing it didn't evolved on it's butterfly mode.

After using alcohol, Baygon and, of course, my skillfs (hee hee), we went to bed. When we were lying, we talked bout random stuffs. Then my sister asked me what does she need to improve from her attitudes and what does she need to change. So I proceeded to tell her the things that I think that she should change. After saying all of those stuffs, I asked her, "Me, what should I change about me?" Then she said the following things:

1. Dinner. Every night, my mama and papa alwaaays calls us to have our dinner together, though me and sister are the ones who prepared the table. It's because after I set the table, I go back to my room and finish the things that I was doing before they called out my name. So my papa will call me and I always respond with "Wait laaang!". So yea, I think that's one thing that I should change.

2. Stop complaining. I think napapansin na ni ate na mas namamadalas na ang aking pagrereklamo tungkol sa mga bagay na kailangan kong tapusin. She said "You must be grateful with the opportunities that you have now. See God in everything that you do. Wag sige reklamo." And yes, I think I should do what my sister told me. :))

3. Start an intimate relationship with God. See? I have my own spiritual director always with me. :)) Hee hee. I told her that I was having some problems with my relationship with God lately. I shared to her every little conflict that I have within myself. She told me that she experienced the same before and because of that she understands my situation right now. So, maybe, I guess, starting an intimate relationship with my God will help me become more comfortable with Him and that my conflicts would be lessen.

And yes, I think those are the aspects of my life that I need to improve in the eyes of my sister. I would be asking the grace of God to help me improve though, I can't do it alone. Changing and adjusting your attitudes is not an easy job.

I think I would end it right here, I have to catch up with my friends now, we'll be bowling later.

Be happy, stay in His Grace.

Rainy days

October 28, 2012-1:29pm

We're currently experiencing a series of rainfall here in Davao. During our break. During our week long break. During our SHORT break. Can you just imagine how pissed we are right now? Because we can't go outside as much as we wanted to just because the rain comes by unexpectedly?

But what good would it bring if we will only talk about the perks of it, right?

So now, whether we like it or not, we have to deal with this season: THE RAINY SEASON. Here are some things that I did, so far, while I'm stuck here in our cute bungalow. :3

1. Yearbook. Before our break officially began, our moderators for the yearbook gave us some tasks to make ourselves occupied during this break. (See even the teachers doesn't want us to enjoy our break-haha.) So I kept telling myself "before November begins, I should be finished with my job." to keep myself motivated with my stuff. And I'm happy to inform you that two days ago, I started scribbling an x on my checklist-phew. :D It's an achievement for me though-for a kid who is nearly forced to do stuff that she doesn't like to do.

2. Room general cleaning. Days ago, mama told us that we couldn't stay in our aunt's house if we will not clean our room. So yea, my sis and I did this already, just yesterday. "Hakot there, hakot here, hakot everywhere. Floor wax here, floor wax there, floor wax everywhere. Trapo here, trapo there, trapo everywhere," was our slogan for yesterday. The good thing was, we had our dinner at my papa's cousin's residence. It was the 18th birthday of his son, or should I say, the 18th birthday of our second cousin. So yea, when we evaporated from their house, I am so bloated. Weee.

3. New playlist. This is one thing that I should have done WEEKS ago. But due to my sched, I wasn't able to do so, and this is the right time to do this. Anyway, I asked some great music from my close friend and she recommended me this song, Sunflower Song. It's a very cute and relaxing one. It's always on repeat whenever I tend to listen to it. And alongside with the wonderful music is a painting going, making it a hundred times more adorable.

So I think I should end my post here, and start doing some other things that needs to be done before November starts. ;)) Till next post!

Here's a sunflower to keep you smiling. :))

Photo from the internet. I don't own it.

May God bless you abundantly.

A Tribute to our Local Mall.

October 26, 2012-2:57pm

The title might have shocked you and the entry might shock you more.

What is this mall I'm talking about?

THIS mall is no other than (drum roll please), Victoria Plaza. Guys, no joke, I'm making this post for Victoria Plaza. It's a local mall here in Davao. It's kinda old-no, it's really old.

To think na yun ang PINAKASIKAT na mall nung pinanganak ako. Tapos may fountain pa yun dun dati, pero dahil sa isang problemang hindi ko alam, tinanggal nila ang fountain, tsktsk.

Even though I cannot remember much about the times that we loiter in that mall (well maybe except the times na nawala ako dun), the pictures reminded me of them.

Ok, ganito kasi yun, may carousel dun sa loob ng mall tapos lahat kaming magkakapatid, may kanya kanyang picture dun. Even some of the friends I know, they have a picture of that carousel.

Then last October 20, we went there and my mom and sissy went in Bench and I was stuck outside since I was eating my fries. So the carousel caught me eye, the children riding that carousel with their moms/dads/grannies have the biggest grin ever.

I immediately remember the picture that I have on that carousel. I wish I could be a kid and have the same feeling that I have every time that I ride one.

But now, honestly speaking, that mall is like nothing compared to the other malls we have now. But hey, the memories that we have there couldn't be erased.

So here are some pics of the carousel that I am talking about.

                                   

I wanna be a kid agaaaaain. Mehee

Yearbook staff.

October 24, 2012-5:33 pm

What a gloomy day it is. Ang sarap matulog. But here I am, doing the yearbook for our batch. You JUST have to sacrifice SO.MANY. for the sake of the success of the yearbook.

Actually, as I said before that if you're having fun in making something, you won't notice that you had spent a couple of hours on that, well I just wish that I would have the same mindset when I will be working for our yearbook.

So a couple of hours ago, I joined a marathon and you know what is my competitor? TIME. We were dismissed at almost 12 and we have a meeting at 1 pm. And for the fact that my "visual aid" needs some more information regarding the paging of the yearbook, I have to go home. I just have to. So I ran here and there just to get in time. And guess what, I arrived back at the CSSA office at EXACTLY ONE PI-EM. What a MAJOR relief.

So we started our meeting and I discussed to them the paging of the yearbook. Though it was just a temporary one, we decided to start on it immediately since we have a breather coming, you know to keep us busy during that time and that we will be able to keep up with the deadlines.

Well now, HOW AM I? I don't know exactly. Hahaha. Katulgon na kaayo ko pero kailangan pa nako magstudy. And to think na PHYSICS and MAPEH ang subjects ugma. As if dali kaayo, dili bya. Hahaha.

So yea, I guess I'll be occupied during this breather of ours.

To be or not to be.

Retreat.

October 17, 2012-8:02 pm

Last October 3, 4 and 5, we had our Retreat. Our greatest, most amazing, bonding experience-yet-with our class. But, let's make this clear, this might be short because we had a Vow of Secrecy, which means, we are not allowed to say ANYTHING about our retreat. But I will not go through it detail by detail because that will break my vow, alright?

So on the morning of our retreat, that was Wednesday, October 3, I had my lunch with Denice, Shane, Camille and Mico at McDo Damosa. It was kind of a bonding experience before we get in the retreat house.     Though there are only 5 of us. So we went to school in different groups since Mico and Camille has to do something for their project in Aral Pan. Den, Shane and I came to school like there was a GREAT commotion in our classroom, palancas here, there and EVERYWHERE, in different colors, sizes and shapes. Hahaha, I could still remember the scenario of our room that day

We were so busy, but yes, we're having fun.\

When we were on our trip going to our retreat house, and until we reached the retreat house, we were reading the palancas given to us. Those palancas were so over whelming, I tell you.

So when we have our meals and snacks (which is 5 times a day). The food are always SOO GREAT, but you know what, since I'm allergic to chicken, I always have a fish dish, hahahha. Anywaaays, everything about the retreat was so fun. Ito lang ang pwede kong masabi sa inyo, wala nang iba. :)

After the retreat and our surprise to Sir Miedes, we went to gmall and have our dinner there. Nilibre kami ng aming classmate, and we were just kidding when we said na magpapalibre kami, pero glibire ni talaga kami, ka buotan nga bata. Hahahah, ikaw na CG. Tapos I think we stayed there at McDo GMall for almost 1 hour and 30 minutes-laughing and reminiscing almost every detail of our retreat, with our BIG luggage. Then after our dinner, we had our picture taking. Mehee, here are some (or maybe all) the pics from the pictorial. :D

So that's it guys. Alam kong bitiiiiiiin sya masyado, but I have to stick to my vow. :))

Value your life.

It's been a month.

October 17, 2012-6:09 pm

So yea, it's been a month since I haven't posted here. It was because our laffy was on a technical medication, in other words, it got repaired-yay! :)) Anyways, there had been so many things that had happened to me since the last time that I posted here. So let me get down on it one by one, or as far as I could remember.

August-I started my duty as the Editor-In-Chief of the Immaculate 2013-the official yearbook of our school. And guess what, it's one of the most stressful things that I had encountered. I have to run here and there just to get to do something at the right time. But anyways, it was kind of fun-you know you get to meet new people like our two photographers. :) They're so randooom I tell you.

September-Start of it was still like August, you know, yearbook stuff. And then I was requested to make the certificates of the Math, Science and Makabayan Fair, that means I have to stay in the faculty room to make it since the results are confidential. I remember it clearly when I was there in the corner cubicle, making the certificates and over hearing the conversations of the teachers. What's funny is that they are calling each other in some kind of nicknames. It was one-of-a-kind days. Though it's not that significant. Mehee

October-The beginning of this month was so Spirit-filled. First we had a Healing of the Family Tree. Then last October 3, 4 and 5, we had our class retreat, and my ghaaaaaaaaad-more details later. heheee, it was AH NO, more details later. ;) Then on the fifth, that was the teacher's day, and we haven't got the chance to greet our last year adviser because we focused on surprising our adviser this year. And she's still mad at us until now. Anyway, it was such a great experience to us, as a class.

So I guess you're keeping up with my blog right now. So I shall move on and keep updated for my post about our retreat. ;)

Keep Smiling.
