The end is near

I have four days left until vaca is finally over. Today my goal is to finish watching the nanny series over youtube, and if I still have time, finish what dvd I havent watched since my brother kept buying dvds during my finals. Imagine, I was so inggit that he was watching dvds while I desperately needed to finish a whole book about civil procedure.

Its been quite awhile since I have not lived like this, no stress, no pressure, no attachments. Saturday night, I partied so hard that though I can remember everything that had happened, I know once again I was semi-guilty of DUI, I had a minor stomach ache during the morning because of alcohol. I swear the vodka sprite I drank was 70% vodka and only 30% sprite, that's why after 2 glasses, my freakin stomach hurt a bit and I was a little drowsy, because of the drink and the disco lights.

I finally saw the world again. Though walang masyadong guapo, at puro bata, I missed the old life I left behind way back, 7 years ago. When all I did was date and party, where my friends are my primary source of my inspiration and when I laughed the best and the hardest. =)

More on my vaca, I had awesome fun with Bicol with the best of my cousins. They told me lots about what they thought way before and how glad I have gotten over with it. Though it took sometime though, but relatively, I can project a smile up to my ears now, no kidding, hindi plastic. And for the longest time, nobody rushed me to go back to Manila, ako na nga lang ang nagsawa kasi walang masyadong gimikan dun, and walang guapo (haha) and I do not have to go to centro and call somebody from home because he was made tampo because I had to adjust my trip back home.

I had dinner with my best law school buds, ade and she. We havent seen ade for a long time, we had dinner in a posh resto, went walking around rockwell and went guapo hunting too. Without any hangups.

Best of all, I now have the best relations with my mom and bro. My bro seldom leaves the house without me, (except now he is in pansol with his friends) I suddenly appreciated the relationship I had with my family, which I almost lost because of some conflict. Though I still often have arguments with mom about little things, and now for the longest time din, nakakapagpaalam na ako ng legal on where I wanted to go and who I am with.

Vacation lang pala ang kailangan ko talaga e. And now vaca is over, I am off to a new start. On my third year in law school. Yey! Hindi ko nahalata, 2 years na lang pla, I have an LLB degree na. =)

The irony of things

My day was full of irony. hehe. Nakakainis minsan when you avoid to see or feel something yet you still get to see them, or when you not expect to see or feel something yet you still do because of.. yes, irony.

(1) I asked She to come with me to enroll in Are this afternoon. She is one of Atty. Porfi's fave (this was claimed by Atty. Porfi himself). I was soo afraid to enroll since I had sabit last semester. We went both today and Saturday, unfortunately last sat, it was Are Law Graduation, so Atty. Porfi was not there. Funny, because today naman, I was expecting Atty. Porfi, malakas ang backup ko, only to see it was Atty. Dave Ballesteros who will do the evaluation, so dapat pala si Anthony ang sinama ko at hindi si she.

(2) She and I were walking down the hallway when I suddenly smell the eewwie smell of dog food. Then when I came home, our house maid told me that chiqui does not have enough food anymore. (Chiqui is my dog)

(3) She and I decided to go to Rockwell para magboy hunting. We were so bored with our lives since it was still vaca, and we are both single (sabi ni she, de facto single lang sha, pero anjan pa din ang prinsipe ng buhay nya, anyway) as we were passing through ayala, we remembered ade and jer being in ayala as well, so we called them and ade (only) decided to meet up with us in glo 4. Hindi pala boys ang nahanap namen, si ade lang pala.

(4) Back when Ade was still in Arellano, she had a rocky relationship with his bf, and She and I had a blossoming romance with our better halves, ngayon baliktad na yata. Si ade na ang may blossoming lovelife, kami ni she, its complicated pa din.

(5) After parking my car at Basement 2 of Rockwell, nagulat ako na pagbaba ko ng car nakita ko yung doctor na sinasabi ni Ate Karen na taga-gatchalian the other night. Namukaan ko sha agad, plus I can recognize him because he was wearing his white coat still, with the MMC logo on it. The other night, she was building this guy up for me, at nagulat ako na he was parked right next to my car.

(6) I am not really sure if Cantinetta is really an italian resto, it seems to me though but the irony in this is that their pasta selection, i'd say, its not that good.

(7) On my way home, a song that should not be heard by me was played on the radio. Ang weird talaga nitong song na to, kasi months ago, twice ko shang hindi sinasadyang marinig, one in SM and one in S&R. Nakakainis, and kanina, i heard it nanaman. Funny si God, nanadya para daw masanay ako. haha.

(8) The other night was much eerie, it was 3am and I was driving home, almost tipsy of laughter, coffee and beer, when I heard over AM ( I was in AM kasi I was listening to the news about Ted Failon) when the DJ announces over the radio that someone wants to greet this certain guy, who exactly has the same name as him. hahha. natawa ako, at ang ironic dun, it was Saturday, 3am, April 18, 2009.

Sometimes, I am not really sure if fate is playing tricks on me wanting me to notice these things so I can get used to it being there. Kumbaga, co-exist. Baka nga. There are things we do not like but still are there to either entertain us, or make us stronger. Meron din naman na it means something, para maalala mo, or para matawa ka. It is actually an option, either to think its funny since its ironic, or just plain deadma. =)

Whats with facebook quizzes?

I am one of the many facebook users who finds ultimate fun in answering facebook quizzes. I get different answers which bores different answers in my mind. Some true, some weird, some ironic and some overly funny. Some actually answered every each of them that it floods the notifications area. =) I find it funny because some people actually believe in it, well in fact, if you've noticed, some surveys; 1) does not relate to the topic, 2) some questions are gramatically wrong, or is misspelled.

The results are even weirder and at some sense different from what we really are, here are some quizzes i took that had funny results;

(1) Edce just took the What Will Your Relationship Status Be in 20 Years? quiz and got the result: Married and Happy..
Married and Happy: Your marriage life may not be all that perfect. But you and your partner will be able to compromise with each other and straighten things out eventually.


If I would be believing this, one there is no partner, and two, more or else, this would what it would be like in a few years for me, "married, but not at all perfect, of course nothing is. "

(2) Edce took the saan mall ka lagi natambay quiz and the result is trinoma
isa sa malalaking mall dito sa pilipinas at isa sa pag aari ng ayala malls! at matatagpuan sa north ave, quezon city at katapat ng sm north! at dahil sa malaki tong mall at nakakapagod lakarin at napakamahal ng mga bilihin dito! at dito ka nararapat dahil kaya mo naman bumili ng mga expensive na gamit! at ikaw ay may kakayahan sa buhay!

Reality check. I have only been in trinoma 3x. One, is with my deranged ex, and the other two, is with kuya edmond, she and anthony during the final exams week. We do our "group study" in Starbucks by Landmark. I guess the most appropriate answer is I am often in glorietta, or in ATC, or in MOA, which is where I really am oftentimes.


(3) Edce completed the quiz "Pinoy Ka Ba Talaga???" with the result Hilaw Ka!.
Logout ka muna sa Facebook at pumunta sa pinakamalapit na fishball stand para mag-merienda. Marami-raming kikiam, squid balls, at penoy ka pang kakainin bago maging ganap na Pinoy. Ano kamo?? Mahina tiyan mo? Sige, mag-Greenwich o Chowking ka na lang. O kaya naman, maghanap ka ng malapit na gotohan o pares-pares (siguraduhing umorder ng extra rice). Pagkatapos kumain, dumerecho na sa SM o Robinson's at pumunta sa record bar; maghanap ka ng CDs ng Imago, Parokya ni Edgar, Eraserheads, o Sugarfree, at pakinggan ang mga CDs ng isang buong araw. Pagkatapos, bumili ka ng VCD o DVD ng "Jose Rizal", "Muro Ami", o "Dekada '70" at mag-movie marathon sa bahay..


Hello! I can eat on a fishball stand, i have gotten to eat pares many times, and listen to Parokya et.al and have watched dekada 70 many times. Its just that, I am not good in tagalog, (weird but I still get confused with kaldero and kawali, and sibuyas and bawang. hehe. ) But Im certainly 100% pinoy, and never a hilaw pinoy!

(4) Edce took the Anu ang papel mo sa barkadahan nyo.. quiz and the result is Leader ng grupo
lahat sila ikaw lagi ang tinatanong, ikaw ang nagoorganize ng mga events, ikaw ang huling nagbibigay ng comment pag may problema, ikaw din ang nagsasabi kung anu ang dapat nyong gawin, isang tawag mo lang sa kanila, siguradong alam nila na matutuloy ang lakad nyo.. Advice: may isa o higit na miyembro ang asar na asar sayo..

This is so not true, most of the time, when I plan something out it does not happen because at many times, I would not be there. hahaha. =) One thing here is true, I always have a comment on any problem. =))

(5) Edce took the "have u met ur true love yet?" quiz and the result is Meant for each other!.
you two r true soulmates! you love each other no matter what, and will stay together forever!


I took this test when I was still with my ex, which apparently did not end up so well, and is not so true, really. =) So i guess in reality, I havent met my true love yet. teeeheee. =)

With the irony of all these, I had received many comments which either affirmed or negate the results. But one thing is for sure, they are all weird, funny and plain hysterical. =)

how abt you, have u answered any weird quizzes lately?
