i love it when it rains. although i know i would hate it by the time i’m commuting to school and what i’m holding in my hand is an umbrella. i actually planned to wear boots (you know, the cheap ones you can buy in a market!) when going to school so that i wouldn’t get THAT dirty. and i wouldn’t want my “college” shoes to get mud all over, it’s something fancier than “high school” shoes. when i was actually in high school i gave up cleaning my shoes so you’ll actually know it’s “old” (just two years old) because the black thingy is chipping off and it shows something white-ish. like black hair turning into white when u get old 
.
it’s actually raining!
anyway yesterday, Sunday, since my mom couldn’t rest here at home she decided to watch a movie instead. And so i recommended watching Perfect Stranger. it was a bit boring but i was surprised actually with the ending. also, dilated eyes are so beautiful!!!! i was surprised that the beautiful pictures are dilated eyes pala! Mrs. Hill is so cool! haha!
how far are u willing to go to keep a secret? who’s who? halle berry or bruce willis?
what i learned from the movie: *sigh* i actually thought that i’m safe writing my thoughts, sharing my name, sharing what i do (the boring stuff!), but i realized that the internet is full of *ahem* dangerous people whom i’m not aware of. not aware of until i have watched the movie. =) so maybe i should stop posting really private stuff about myself or my friends or probably.. heck, i don’t know yet. maybe for my next post it’s about: what is private and what is not? (for me.)
hi. this is giovanni ribisi from the perfect stranger. =) first of all, i just want to tell you that he’s not my crush. anywayyy it was funny that i’d actually watched him again in this new *freakish* character. if you don’t know it yet, giovanni ribisi played scarlet johansson’s husband in lost in translation (see my previous post about it)
this is him in lost in translation.. if you’ve watched perfect stranger, you’ll see that he has “lines” all over his face and that of his body. i’m about to throw up. because his big body now doesn’t fit him. what about the wrinkles on his forehead? maybe he’s so stressed about body building that he eventually didn’t notice the stress the body building project gives on his face okay to be fair, maybe he needs it to fit the disgusting role. eeeeww.. =(
i know there are a lot of guys who are like his character in the perfect stranger. what is it with women’s body anyway? i think guys have a body of their own to look at (or even drool at).
anyway i’m going to say my theory again: the parents are the ones to be blamed when their children grow up the wrong way. and do terrible things in their adult life. =( it’s sad but it’s really true. just watch the movie if you haven’t yet!
this entry is about my dinner!
i got hungry between 6-7 e usually i eat at 7-8. anyway, it was beef steak w/ onions (as usual) but even more surprising, there are red bell peppers with it. okay if in another place or house for that matter, you include bell peppers in your beef steak well you should’ve told me ages ago. i didn’t eat the bell peppers but the taste is evident in the steak and its sauce! i was the first one in the family to eat so i kept on saying and like promoting the food to everyone in the house. well, thanks to our new helper Ate Tes! =)
today’s posts are usually about food. =) how about tomorrow?
i ate my lunch today! i was rather hungry so i ate it before 12 (no breakfast! that’s why..) anyway, we had shrimps and vegetables! as i was writing the previous post, our helper here at home was cooking vegetables! sweet. now i’m really getting healthy haha!
i wasn’t able to sleep early last night because i kept on texting a lot of people. my fault, but i enjoyed catching up with them. like, i only text people during the night before i sleep, then the conversation never ends! haha! but it’s all good.
i’m starving myself. i wake up at about 8:30 in the morning just so i can watch MIRMO and ALICE ACADEMY (i’m still a kid!). and then i don’t eat any breakfast at all, then come lunch time, i usually don’t eat too. then dinner is all that’s left! sometimes, even for dinner i’ll just eat a sandwich. see? it is soooo unhealthy of me. it’s like i’m killing myself. i actually confessed this to my mom, sooooo i’m going to change now. i want to be healthy!
you know what, i actually recommend eating fish only for protein, then fruits and vegetables. i don’t like eating pork (i don’t want anymore pigs’ parts on my plate!). beef and chicken are still fine. but if u really want to be healthy, take fish fruits & vegetables. =) i want to learn how to cook now. partly because of my family, i want them to eat well-cooked and healthy dishes! ho hum.
also, come college, i could take with me some delicious sandwiches i’ll surely enjoy! okay so time to search for recipes now!
>i can’t write anything as long as there’s another person in a room with me. and so, while my sister is still in the house, i kept asking her why she hasn’t gone to work yet. and i kept on saying, that mom needs her so she’d better go. anyway she’s gone now =)<
Last Monday night, there was a total brownout which affected probably the whole city of Antipolo! It was the night i discovered wordpress and a night of sleeping in an air-conditioned room. Unfortunately while i was hugging my mom in bed, the brownout happened. And so, it was back to sleeping w/o an air-con, and for the first time this summer, w/o an electric fan! oh c’mon! like it’s soooooooooo hot here in Manila…
my sister arrived and she told us what happened. there was an electricity post which accidentally fell all by itself! it fell over a truck and a tricycle. and even after falling, the wires sparked (LIVE WIRE LIVE WIRE!) as if it’s going to catch fire.
anyway i was worried with my mom because she just had a recent illness. so i kept on fanning her, she fell asleep luckily, and so i stopped fanning.when i stopped, a few seconds after i felt like i can’t breathe. and so i thought it must be better off to fan my mom than myself (at least there’s moving air). after a few hours or so, elecricity came back to life and i immediately opened the air-con.
tuesday, i had my UST enrollment. during that time up until the afternoon there was no electricity again. i just have known about this when my sister and i met up with my mom and brother in a mall. so we were lucky afterall. saved from the intense heat thanks to global warming.
aha! i forgot to mention this special occassion while enrolling myself in UST. you see, by chance i got to meet a long lost schoolmate/friend.. it’s Katrina Vibandor! We were friends somewhat turned enemies back in grade school with all those petty fights and competition! haha! okay here’s the story, i was walking to another building when suddenly i saw this familiar face and she said, “Uy, Macky!” and like i was “Heeeeyyyy!” God, i thought she’d forgotten my name all this time! And from that day on i know we’d just laugh about the grade school days whenever it’s brought up in the future! I wasn’t able to talk to her that much. But she’s taking up Accounting. like hey, i know back since grade school that she wanted to be a lawyer and so she wanted to take accounting. talk about dreams coming true! good for her.
so we watched pan’s labyrinth yesterday. it was a really good and brilliant movie. and it’s now one of my favorites! sometimes we create our own worlds, our own fairytales because we’re disappointed with the world we live in. in the end, you really wouldn’t know if she’d reached heaven. or that must be what God has given her. God has sent the faun to entertain her while living in that cruel place. of course, it’s all in her imagination. i really love it. i cried in the end! haha funny but it’s true. it’s a happy ending but sad at the same time. or was it because i feel some intense connection with ofelia? like i’ve said before, we create our own world because we’re disappointed with what we have around us. you know, sometimes i just want to stay in an asylum and pretend i’m crazy and in my own bubble. i’d just then imagine that i’m in my own world, my own fairytale. and i know i’ll be happy in it.
but what differs from me and ofelia is that she didn’t sacrifice her own little brother just to finish the last task. if i were her in the film i would actually ask the faun the knife and i’ll do the the prickling of the skin itself to my brother, because i don’t trust that the faun will do it gently so i’d rather do it. but no, she gave everything up as long as her baby brother shall live. she gave up her dream/destiny/fantasy. while i, on the other hand says that i will give everything up, i’ll do anything just to live in my dream. or i’d ask God for just one day, and it’s alright. but perhaps, i wasn’t put in that situation yet. so logically speaking i would have given up all chances of living in my dream than to sacrifice anyone just like ofelia
I enrolled at UST yesterday. It was super unorganized and the people behind the desks were really slowwwwwwwwwwwww.
I still don’t feel like attending college. It’s like i’m far away from home (literally speaking! haha..), far away from my mother, far away from any security. UST is such a big place i’m not familiar with.
it’s too hot to go walking from building to building. although i wouldn’t be walking from building to building anyway .
my PE sucks. it’s women’s fitness. haha! i chose that because it’s exclusively for women… no guys.. perhaps, in second year i would be changing my PE class. i have to get used to having guys in class first. tsk tsk, i’m really not ready yet.
i arrived at ust at about 9:30-10 then we were finished at about 4. =(
my mom, sister and i watched The Last Mimzy. the movie is absolutely for kids, i enjoyed it a lot! my mom and sister didn’t enjoy it.. hehe but because my mom promised me last monday that we’re going to watch it so a promise is a promise! i love the kids and the beach house. made me realize how much i wanted a family.
this is emma and mimzy.
i almost cried at the last part where it was explained that the future human beings are dying because of this and that. the kids’ science teacher (explained at the beginning part of the movie) explained that because of the pollution, in a slow rate, it alters the dna of living things therefore either it creates two heads in one body or makes us sick. yeah something like that.
i’ll explain more of the environmental issue next time.
for the mean time, my sister and i will watch pan’s labyrinth later. i’m so excited! anyway i thought it was a remake of jennifer connelly’s labyrinth but got disappointed that it was not.
after being grounded (it was my decision anyway not my parents..) i finally had the chance to go out and do some sight seeing.
my mom was rushed to the hospital again. this is not a shocking news however, because we got used to it. =) although there’s nothing to smile about regarding the situation, it’s just funny because my mom’s like a little kid when it comes to eating junk food. anything salty is bad for her, and so, i always stop her from eating any junk food (she ENJOYS eating junk food!) but my sister then chimes in, “pabayaan mo na, minsan lang naman kumain si mommy e.” yeah right! usually, when my older sister tells me that i get angry because we should really take care of my mom’s health. and now, she has this serious case of UTI or whatever, but it’s absolutely serious.
last night i was annoying her because she wouldn’t listen to me back when i was stopping her from eating junk food.
anyway, today i accompanied my mom to a little hospital and had an ultrasound. it was really cool because usually the doctor doesn’t let me in, but this time (heck it was a different doctor back then) the doctor did! and my mom told the doctor that i’m going to take medicine. and we talked about pre-medicine courses. the doctor’s pre-med was med-tech, he said he didn’t have any regrets because during the second year of taking medicine, (accdg to him was the hardest year) it was easy for him because the subjects at that year was taken when he was still a med-tech student. but nowadays, he recommend nursing. he said it in a so so manner. =)
also, while doing the ultrasound thingy on my mom, he pointed out to me the liver, the kidney, and the position of the kidney.. and what the glowing little dots are.. soooooo coooool! thanks a lot doc!
we were supposed to watch the perfect stranger but my mom got sleepy and so after eating we headed home.
tomorrow’s my enrollment in UST. and anyway, the viewing of the perfect stranger is postponed because we’re going to watch the last mimzy instead. =)

i almost cried and was jumping up and down when i found our collector’s edition STAR WARS Episodes 1-6. and i was also saying i love you, to the one who found it… me! haha!
i’ve been wanting to watch star wars for soooo long but it got lost among the pile of stuff here in our room. i know it’s still in our house since i think someone asked me to hide it from my brother.. and anyway, when i first cleaned this one part of the room wherein most likely the box was there, i wasn’t able to find it. and then the second place to look was in another room, but it wasn’t there either. so the third place to look was where the dvd player is, but it wasn’t there too!
last night, since i wanted to reallllllllllyyyyyyyy watch it, i looked again in the dvd player part, and as i was about to give up hope, i slightly picked up this box and saw in an instant the box of star wars! yay! the box that i picked up was keeping it hidden from my view all this time! =)
well, at least i got to watch it again..
i liiiiiiiiiike Ewan McGregor!
if ever i can finally post some videos from youtube, i’m going to introduce my first ever (and probably last!) Korean actor crush! haha!
last night and for the whole time i’ve been online today, i was searching for some of his commercial videos. =) i found the ELLE girl 2006 12th issue video, also two yummy commercial of Tous Les Jours bakery, and the trailer of his movie, Love Impossible.
what do i need to enjoy life?
a copy of the movie Madeleine and Love Impossible (with English subtitles please!) or any movie in which my crush has the lead role.
i also need the book Gates of Paradise by V.C. Andrews (the last book in my Casteel series)
hey, i had a great dream last night! it was pretty cool. i don’t know if i was the one watching or i’m in the car itself and in the passenger seat! okay so someone was driving way too fast in this highway which has a little traffic on it, but the driver knew the road that well and it was easy for him to turn left and right without slowing down! it was a super scary ride. =) and also, i had my turn to drive, it was a bit hard because the car won’t slow down and the road was too smooth or that it has less friction. haha, but you know what the funny thing is, i can slow the car down by stepping my feet on the ground, much like how you stop a motorcycle! okay so while driving i was a bit scared because i was going way way way too fast, and i slowed down a bit. but anyway, since i couldn’t bear the speed, i just stepped my feet on the ground, and while asleep i can feel the tension in my knees! haha and so i woke up by then!
SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEED is killing me!
well these past few days have been hard and crazy. confusing for my part. really, who am i? i don’t know! i’ve been thinking about this one since freshman year and i haven’t fully understood myself up to now! i know there’s a battle within me, let me exaggerate by saying it’s between the light vs dark. or in simple terms, the optimistic macky vs the pessimistic macky. =)
i easily give up any hope of happiness. =(
my mom, sister and i, and along w/ my mom’s co-workers were supposed to go to greenhills for this product show. and since me and claire (the daughter of my mom’s co-worker) don’t have any tickets for the show, they planned on dropping us by SM Mall of Asia. although i have been there only once, i’m confident enough that i’ll survive the 2-3 hours alone w/ claire (10 year old kid). but anyway, before leaving the house, my sister and i had this petty fight. since i really don’t like her at all, i decided to not go anymore. =(
anyway, for the past two days i got angry with my sister. ha! i wouldn’t explain it here anymore because it’s so immature and child-like (SHE is immature and child-like.. in a way of course).. *sigh* i hate her. and my mom is always on her side even if she is wrong or exaggerating the events. i always hate it when simple events are exaggerated.
so, my mom called and asked me to come still but i told her no. before that call my sister was chanting: “ay nagpapapilit pa..” see? i hate that.. so to prove that i really won’t come or that i have a firm decision, i decided that i really wouldn’t come!
because they always think that with a little hug here and sweet talk, they could change my mind. although i know that these sweet acts are for my sake, and for my happiness too, i just gave it all up. =(
