Emotionally ill

2008-04-09T00:29:00.000+08:00

April 05, 2008

What really hurts is when you cry trying to pour out the pain that's been crippling your vein..and you cry until you can't stop, realizing that the pain doesn't go, instead it gets more hurtful when you find yourself helpless. And you do this everyday, losing hope that you will find happiness.

And it's just so painful to see yourself trashing life...

And you try your best to save yourself, but everything gets vain in just a second of his memory..

Kalai formal dinner

2008-04-09T00:23:00.000+08:00

March 16, 2008

I look out my window and I see white table sheets neatly hanging by the sides of plastic tables transformed into elegant buffet tables; white tents increasing albedo are being built by guys in white shirts preparing the set for a fantastic night - a night of fantasy under the spell of green trees with white capiz lights dimly lighting and romanticizing the dormitory's backyard.

There are almost ten tables in bright white sheets on which we will dine later in our formal outfits. Girls in elegant dresses, some in their prom gowns, others even rented their outfits, while others are lucky enough to borrow from someone's closet. The guys will be in neat tux which all look quite the same.

It will be a night of magic for a swish of the wand transforms us into fairy tale princes and princesses. Beauties will dazzle the place and romance will be felt in the air as the lights streak down the excited faces of iskolars ng bayan.

I wish I could take romance whenever, wherever, so I feel magical. I wish it didn't have to end so tonight my eyes will sparkle, and my mind will be in a trance, rather than in its nostalgic state. And tonight will come that I shall survive, or even live for the rest of my life. However it may be, tonight will be right now's mystery, and I'll be preparing my camera so I could look back on a magical history.

Ang mga PINOY, bow...

"ale, pabiling colgate, ung close up." - adik ka sa toothpaste?

"sarado mo pinto. Lalabas ang aircon." - sosyal, may paa?

"yaya, salubungin mo ang school bus ni junior" - tama yan! pasagasaan mo!

"anak, tumabi ka sa sasakyan ha" - patayin mo rin si junior!

"tinuka ako ng ahas!" - may tuka? ano un, bagong breed ng ahas?

"may tonsil aq" - kami rin!

"may candy ako, yaw mo?" - offer ba yan?

"tulog ka na?" - malaman mo pa kaya kung oo?

Gamewerkz, Juns, Maria Flordeluna, Nametag, at Photography: Pakikonek Please

Dearest Readers,

I’m working at Gamewerkz again. It’s good to be back. I did the layout for Precious Silver. It feels great when you see your output, kaso in-edit din ni Manong Royce. Peace, bro. We also had a drill. We had to copy exactly four invitation tags in just 30 mins. I finished 2 out of 4. Wala rin namang nakatapos, pero si Kuya Sam pasado. Galing mo, father. At sa pagsundo sakin nila Mommy, natuwa si Kuya Jay dahil dala nila si Scrappy/ Scruffy. Yey, first time niya kong kinausap kanina. Gusto niya sigurong interview-in si Scrappy, pero ako interpreter. Haha. Sana nga pala isama nila ko sa coverage ni Mackie sa Sunday. Sir Rhems, kung binabasa mo to, hello po.

Masaya din ako dahil pito na ang nagpapagawa sa akin ng name tags. Not bad naman diba, at 10 days before school starts. Eto naman trabaho ko sa TGJS. Layout artist. haha.

Anyway, sino ba makakatulong sakin? How to export objects retaining their transparent backgrounds. Tinuruan na ko ni Manong kanina (actually, un din ung alam ko), pero pag nilalagay ko dito sa blog ko, nagiging blue ung bakcground, instead na transparent. Kailangan ko lang para mapalitan ung color ng background ng body at ng box sa side nitong blog ko. C'il vous plait et merci!

Bukas nga pala, get-together ng Junanakz. Maggagala at manonood kami ng Ikalawang Hirit sa Tag-init na gaganapin sa SUBAC. RS production un. Manood din kayo.

order pics at Gamewerkz Grafix & Cybershoppe. Unedited nga pala tong mga pinost ko. order na juns, naka disable right click ko. hehe

Bukas din ang ending ng Maria Flordeluna. Sayang naman, di ko mapapanood.

Ang sarap pala magblog nang filipino.

Namimiss ko na nga rin pala ang photography. CAMERA! Canon EOS 400D!

Yan. Update lang sa aking buhay.

Paalam. Au revoir!

Comment on 'Pro-GO is not equivalent to pro-Erap"

"That’s the sad truth. Strategy, we may call it – to win the hearts of anti-GMA voters. Probably they looked at Filipinos as children who would agree to everything who would satisfy their candy cravings. If they had their own minds and principles, they should have stood by it. Instead, they chose to portray images of corruption. And that was their way to win our freedom."

Philippines' Historical Reality Show

2007-05-21T17:23:00.000+08:00

Philippines' Historical Reality Show

Stated in the 1987 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines, Article VI, Section 3: No person shall be a Senator unless he is a natural-born citizen of the Philippines and, on the day of the election, is at least thirty-five years of age, able to read and write, a registered voter, and a resident of the Philippines for not less than two years immediately preceding the day of the election.

Wanted by the masang Pilipino is someone who could raise their status quo, maybe someone who could flood their drained bank accounts. Required by the entrepreneurs who subsist in the fluctuating world of stocks and business is a big name that could grant incentives and hoist their eminence in the market. In the sagacity of idealism, others may seek articulation to be the voice and image of what was once a reverie. In the world of ignorance, others may yearn for the face – the one whose posters they once thought were endorsements of a new beauty clinic.

How many times the Filipinos had been fooled? They were but images that portray good actors or actresses – too good that they made us believe that their role is their real personality. Just like how Eula Valdez and Jean Garcia played their role as Amor Powers and Claudia Buenavista that struck the country.

We were once on top – a country that was taking pleasure on its riches until we felt the dictator’s arm clutching our freedom. The state loves freedom, no doubt – proven by the rally scenes that take over the news everyday. The state’s excellent economy was forfeited to reclaim the free will that was taken from us.

Now that we have salvaged what was left of us, we are given much power to make a change – a good one, to retrieve what was once ours.

Pinoys should establish standards. We should vote for someone able - someone who has the capabilities, a person with knowledge and understanding to construct laws not for himself but for the majority of the people. He should be an individual who has the guts to stand on his principles, not changing sides – favor to the appealing and someone who has the record.

Last May 14, the Filipino people were doctors of the ailing land and juries of the historical reality contest. We may not have unexplained powers to change the present, but we had supremacy to direct the future.

Stated in every Filipino’s hope is someone who will lead the nation into its prosperous condition

Supergirl meets Oble

It was my normal afternoon – a lot of computers in the scene, busy workmates working hard to meet the deadline, and I, miss-trying-to-keep-on track was working with a client’s picture. I was asked by a client who was in race of time to post his pictures in a political manner – ‘Are you working here?’

‘Yes, sir’

‘How old are you, are you a voter?’

‘I’m only 15’

‘You look like a 5th grader’

Thank you for the compliment, sir. It’s appreciative when someone tells that you look much younger than how old you are. Or maybe not.

‘What year are you now?

‘incoming freshman’

‘1st year high school?’

‘no, college in UP’

I try to go back to that conversation. I’ll be entering college in just three weeks time; I’ll be learning, reaching for achievements, or I might end up awful at everything. Who cares? I passed the UPCAT! And in three weeks, I’d be in UP Diliman.

It was just the vacation before my senior year when we were very serious about being admitted in the university. I can still remember our mentor asking me what course would I be taking – an undecided look was the answer. She asked me what my favorite subject was. I heard someone say ‘English’, so I said English, and she advised BA English Studies.

And now, I belong in College of Arts and Letters, BA English Studies.

I realize that with this privilege, comes great responsibility. Independence is a word I try to link to UP not because our classes start the same day as our independence day. (That’s why I picture the school welcoming students with rallies.) Independence, because everything now will depend on myself – my future, my standings, or my next meal. I consider it as trying to look upon ourselves – looking at ourselves as superheroes, protector of the world; someone who might not be in a cape, but who is capable of being on her own.

Watch out, world: when Supergirl meets Oble!

Childish Views

Childish Views

In a world that gets older everyday, I begin to question myself: ‘How come children see the possibilities in every thing that grown-ups declare impossible?’

In this stage of self-exploration, I seem to seek myself as days pass by. I seem to live in this world with desperate clueless ness. Believing is sometimes juvenile and ignoring is often too cynical. The imaginative image of the world slowly fades into a map those geographers made.

As time defeats us, mysteries are washed out by the habitual ways of everyday life. Our views are often disparaging of the mysteries that the world holds; too afraid that faith might be false illusions and that absolute truth is the lie we strongly doubt. We tend to take life for granted for we don’t explore what is hidden beyond the picture.

Life can not be alive without ties that we treasure. As part of growing and along the experiences of everyday, we connect with people along the way and we establish friendship. I have been living with friends side by side; learning about life with peers and taking advices from friends of different ages. Ties are made through the bonds shared together, and treasured most when longed for.

I have been used living in that scene – going through everyday with them, too used that I will feel sadness when it is time for farewell. Tomorrow won’t feel the same because something special is missing. Longing is such a sweet sorrow for love is stronger within the heart than the eye.

Love is created through friendship, and friendship is developed from love. What comes first, we may not know, but the joy it offers the heart is immeasurable. Love drives us to be better persons. It is the heart that sees rightly. What we see may be the image we force our eyes to see, but through the heart, one can see rightly. The obdurate views that we have turn into colorful images of life, thus everyday won’t seem ordinary because of our enthusiasm of something new.

Friends are treasures for they complete me. I may not be me if it wasn’t for them. Four years in high school is lively, particularly because of my peers. We have been teaching and learning through each other for years. Soon, we have to bid each other goodbyes. May the bonds that connect us be stronger as the years pass by. Also, may our hearts lead us into the path of righteousness.

Through our innocent hearts, we see the world as a child, not letting time spoil our dreams into a world of impossibilities.

Jack-O-Fuel

We will be joining Zonal Bio Competition that will be held on Thursday at Muñoz, Nueva Ecija. Our research study Jack-O-Fuel is an official entry.

TITLE: JACK-O-FUEL
Name: Ronjell Velasquez, Charmaine Gulanes, Krisel Garcia, Krizia Redondo, Mary Jane Ocampo, Clepe Ramones, Patrick Garcia
Address: Olongapo City
School: Regional Science High School – III
East Kalayaan, Subic Bay Freeport Zone,
Olongapo City, PHILIPPINES

The demand of fuel in our world, nowadays, seems to increase even more. People depend mainly in the production of the diesel, since its importance is widely used. But then, the effect of using these gases and the cost it offers to the people is unaffordable. Moreover, the pollution that comes from the use of the diesel, results to the continuous destruction of the environment. This study would help produce a biodiesel that is pollutant-free and affordable.

The purpose of this study is to test the utilization of the Jackfruit seeds as a raw material in the production of biodiesel.

The researcher prepared a 3.8 kg of ground Jackfruit seeds and was then mixed with 3 liters of hexane.

The oil was extracted using the Solid Liquid Extractor (Soxhlet). After getting the oil, it underwent Sterification, where the glycerin was removed, and the biodiesel separated.

The sample underwent a Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry Testing. The components of the sample were tested and were compared with the compounds present in the NIST Library of the De La Salle University, Manila, Chemistry Department.

The outcome showed that the biodiesel from the Jackfruit seeds were effective as a source of biodiesel.

Junior-Senior Promenade

2007-02-18T14:43:00.000+08:00

Junior - Senior Promenade

Prom was fun. I was wearing a Monique-like dress. It’s a Princess Hours thing. I loved the fact that it was held at El Centro, not at Triangle. Just imagine how it would be a bummer. Anyway, I missed the celebrity-at-Oscar’s feeling that I had last year. I felt like a celebrity last year when I walked down the vehicle. Honestly, I felt really sad when we received the message from Kuya Rhems that they couldn’t make it. I was expecting that hundred photos would be taken on that event. Well, I must enjoy my last Junior-Senior Promenade.

Couple of RS Students (Me, Vana, Chai, and Pat) had our makeover at the International Salon. I was irritated by the fact that I thought that I was going to be oh so late, that I didn’t hear anything from Gamewerkz, and not to mention the guy beside me na chumecheber. Bata pa po ako, kuya.

And I got there…

We stayed at the lounge area of El Centro. We waited for an hour before it started. We voted for prom royalties and even Mr. and Ms. Faculty.

Angelo was my partner at the grand entrance. Siya ung natapat e. According to the faculty members, mukha daw kaming magkagalit, because he wasn’t really escorting me. Sa pagkakaalam ko kasi, may pilay ung arm niya. Anyway, we seated at Table 7 – junanaks and Juts table.

Cotillion was alright too. I was really worried na baka madulas ako. The floor was very slippery and so was the dance floor. Good thing everything went alright.

After eating, top 5 Prom Princes, Princesses, Kings, and Queens was announced. I was one of the Prom Queens. Yey! =)

And then the dancing part…that I wish to keep to myself.

Christmas Party

It was the best, ever. We had loads of fun. It was our last Christmas party altogether and wemade the most out of it. We had our 'Deal or No Deal' with MJ as Kris Aquino and Ma'am Reynie as the contestant. I was one of the girls, number 8 specifically. Ma'am Reynie picked my folder-supposed-to-be-briefcase. She chose Deal and won P300. (The biggest amount is P500). I received 'Digital Photography Handbook' from Vanna. Thank you! And I gave Monica a Penshoppe cap. It was on her wishlist. Ü Merry Christmas!

Platinum girls as the 26K girls

Christmas Ball

We had fun! But I guess, only us. Dahil KJ sila..wehehe. Only boring people get bored. I guess it's true. Though wala ng tao sa gym, we still enjoyed it kahit kami na lang ung sumasayaw sa dance floor. Thanks guys for making that day wonderful. <3>

to the North Pole

I’ve always dreamed of being a snow angel during Christmas. I used to think that Santa gave me the doll I found on my bed when I was 4. I also believed that Santa traveled the world with Rudolf and the reindeers to give gifts to the nice kids. All these and more, I used to believe happen during Christmas.

And I don’t want to lose the child in me who believes in those things. If Santa only exists in the imaginative minds of little children, then let it be. And why don’t we be Santa, giving smiles and joy to the people around us?

What I want for Christmas is…

If you would ask me, I can really blab. I want a nice dress, pearl, and have I mentioned Canon EOS 400D? But those things are not what I really want for Christmas. I covet peace, love to reign over the hearts of people for us to find happiness in every little thing we do. I remember what Sir Farrales have told us – that the saddest place in the world is where there is no love. We can find delight while unlocking up a door, and might still feel emptiness in the middle of a party - it all depends on our hearts, if we choose to feel love or not.

Our Christmas
Lyrics by Krizia Redondo
Melody by Monica Marie Fabunan

D A Bm G
It’s almost time for Christmas eve
And no one in the world’s asleep
Sit beside the Christmas tree
Here’s a gift for you and me

D A Bm G
Everywhere we see bright lights
Christmas carols, gifts, and smiles
Everyone is celebrating
Kids and grown-ups busy praying

D A Bm G
Behind these laughter and happy songs
Far away a kid’s alone
Sitting quietly in a corner
Wishing someone’s there to hold her

A G Em A
So why not give a helping hand
And make this moment last

Chorus:
D A Bm G
Christmas isn’t just a single day
It’s love hope faith and giving everyday
Why wait for that wonderful day
When Jesus is in our hearts and there He’ll stay

D A Bm G
As long as you have a family
All is great for you and me
(forgot the lines)

D A Bm G
That once a year we gather ‘round
And give thanks to Almighty God
For giving us a jolly Christmas
Another year has gone by for us

A G Em A
So let’s all give a helping hand
And make this Christmas last

Chorus

A G Em A
So get up, cheer up, and sing
‘Coz joy is what we’ll bring

Chorus 2X
(2nd Chorus: E Bm C#m A)

E Bm C#m A
He’ll stay for all of time
In our hearts and in our minds
‘Coz we’re celebrating life
Of our Savior Jesus Christ

Platinum rehearses for the Christmas carol competition

Our Christmas carol (also our singing) won. It was a happy moment. While we were strumming, I saw them singing at the top of their lungs and smiling at the same time. It was a great experience that bonded us together in the presence of the Christmas spirit.

Uneducated education

2006-12-13T20:33:00.000+08:00

Tunggak – iyan ang bagong salitang natutunan ko kay Isagani. Tinukoy niya ang mga prayle sa panahon ni Rizal na nagsisilbing guro ng kabataang Pilipino, ngunit ipinagdadamot ang kaalaman sapagkat ayaw nilang magkaloob ng karunungan sa bayan.

Hanggang ngayon ay may mga tunggak (ang kaisipan ay galing kay Isagani) pa rin.

Palit muna tayo ng medium of speech.

We, students attend school to learn and to get an education. Since early childhood, our parents have enrolled us to quality schools because they believe that that will be our strong foundation for a good future.

When I look at my nursery graduation picture, I feel the pain on my neck while wearing those medals but I was grinning and I remember the smiles my parents were wearing at that time. I was the montessorian, I held the name, not just any name but the school’s name.

I was the hyper kinder student then. I would blab and blab and blab, and I still remember the time when my teacher told me to stand on the corner for being so makulet. Still, I am an honor student. I remember getting the biggest role, playing Psalty in our Christmas presentation, and most of all I felt how happy my parents were.

Getting to elementary was a big step especially that I was in a new, unknown world. I found the teachers daunting which I think the reason for my transformation into a shy girl. Though I was clueless in that new school for two years, I maintained to be in honor. Then my mom transferred me to a new one for it was a quality school according to people. All my grades were maintained highly, despite the high standard school’s reputation. I graduated from elementary with honor.

And I entered the prestige high school acing the entrance exam. I got worried for people say that students there do not sleep, for school works are piled up. And my first year there was well, quite easy. Honestly, the ‘easy-high-school’ reputation for my elementary school was true. Some people even told me that I will rank number one, but unfortunately, someone deserved better for it, still I was an honor student.

So much for my sophomore and junior year, I got effing confused and pressured by reasons…

And now I’m in my fourth year, ready to graduate and step up to college. But that’s not my concern for writing this ‘portfolio’ of my education. If THEY would just understand that we need to learn. I had worked for my achievements up there, and I would not want for this to be ruined because I was not taught.

All students in my classroom wear the same uniform, paid the same enrollment fee and know the same alphabet. So why give us different lessons from them? Is it because you thought that we might not comprehend? Yes, we understand that they are genius in that matter, but will you let idiocy prevail? Why don’t you give us the knowledge to let education reign over idiocy?

I believe that when you entered that so-called profession, you have promised to teach the knowledge that is needed to let the youth be what the society needs it to be. But what have you done? You have spoiled us into the world where we can’t seem to understand.

because I've grown

I’ve grown up.

I need help about blogger beta so I checked Kopee’s blog to see the codings and I stumbled upon my old blogs with my classmates’ old ones. I went to my old stuffs and realized how I became a childish girl. I read my past posts that were about problems on common teenage tribulations. But now that I’m reading it, I get to laugh at those times when I was problematically writing those.

I’ve grown to a somewhat being and am continue changing to be the being that I’ll be. I get too see the world with a better view everyday. I now perceive that life cannot just be shattered by a witch and put back by a pixie with a magical wand. We control it. We make mistakes and we learn from them and every lesson is what makes us grow.

I am becoming a being with the people that surrounds me – negative or positive. And to the special people that directs me to the right way, sincere gratitude to you.

Inspiration

I remember myself feeling lonely at the scene of being left.

There were times when I felt like enthusiasm wasn’t on my path. Perhaps I found my days too mundane to find thrill in life – habitual, it seemed. I even became a couch potato staring at the television where I tried so hard to enjoy when I couldn’t seem to. That life seemed to be usual and customary.

Until I met them…

Inspirations. They seem to make me eager about every waking day. A light that shines through the window is a happy thought that makes me get up from bed and greet the world a good morning. They have this incredible influence to make me go all-out. They are the people that I want to be with for I know that I am in the right conduit.

But the thing is people come and go. When they go, I find myself alone. And the feeling that the grayish world again exists makes me lonely. But they have taught me great things about existence. They have been brilliant mentors for they taught me to be on my own – to start even with just myself because life has infinite surprises.

Maybe it is a fact that people may come and go, but they leave a mark in our hearts that will always be reckoned.

I was filming at school (for graduation stuffs). I interviewed my classmates and made them say their farewell messages, but when I played it in the computer, argh!! nauuna ung sound sa motion. rawr!!!!!!!! maganda pa naman daw ung isa dun (ung fave nila cha)

Random day

I hate hypocrites!

Sabotage is a way of cheating, backstabbing, and everything someone like *beep* do. You did it, which makes you one. Taking your advantage to say ‘one down’, isn’t that right? And, that doesn’t give you the assurance of anything. Oh yes, they do - no trust to be given to you.

You've already fooled me..us, but then I forgave you. How could I been so stubborn to trust you again and again..and again. Now, I thank you for warning me about people like you.

pasensya na dun sa nakasulat, naiinis lang talaga ko.
buti na lang masaya 'yung end ng school day ko.

Signs

2006-12-04T19:28:00.000+08:00

I’m starting to believe in signs.

It’s not that I’m dependent or anything. It has gotten to my mind that destiny will be, anyhow. And I do know how it might affect me. You know the feeling when you really really believe in something which makes you assured that there is a big possibility that it might come true, then all of a sudden the possibility rate did not reach reality? Well, I do. But now, I have grown enough to have my own discretion.

Blah blah..

Anyway, compliments to Oliver for the tinapay from BreadTime. Thanks din to those who told me to get well (well, I'm already well) and stuffs.

Good night guys!

Home is where my heart is

It started like any other day. I got ready for school and had some hustles due to last-minute-printings that I did which caused me some problems and in the end, I managed to do it. I passed my Filipino assignments and documented our English monologues.

and Kuya Ralph for teaching me bout cam stuffs.

Then we had our break time and blab at the school caf. We had this experimental test in Calculus which I think I failed to do my best due to the unfortunate headache that I had. My left eye hardly see. It was the sight of seeing blue after looking at the sun, but there was no sun to look at. It caused me too much trouble to look at the math solutions that I was writing but I hardly see. And the time came to pass it. Yes! Time to rest. But then, Physics was yet to come. So I was asleep in the class while I waited for my mom to come. It was a moment of wooziness. I could not even look at our board. After some catnap, my mom came. I almost not stood up and walk the long hallway to get to the van.

Then we got home…

At last! What I've been waiting for. When I stepped onto the doorway, I was struck by the feeling of calmness and somehow forgot about the headache I had. Also, moms have the power of healing through their compassionately caring.

And now…I have to get more rest so I won’t miss tomorrow.

New Site

2006-12-03T20:11:00.000+08:00

I've decided to blog AGAIN to

keep track of my progress or shall I say draw back
scribble, blab..blah blah...
blurbs
and..keep in touch

Yup, keep in touch since I've realized that I have only three months to stay here in Olongapo because I'm off to college and I'll be missing people. The times...the happy moments, and the really happy ones, you know what I mean? In just 3 months time, we'll be off to a new world.

Anyway, I'm sorry for the 'too much simplicity' of this site. I won't be spending too much time designing this coz I have too much stuffs to handle - schoolworks.
