 the ever so JEJE ICA-XS COs '11-12

okay. I'm not fond of all of the male officers. :| In fact, I'm actually pissed at some of them. But, no matter how weird they are or annoying, or awkward, or disturbing, they still made our last MAJOR duty really memorable! I'd really like to thank them SO SO SO MUCH for making my last major duty as a cadette officer something that I'll surely never forget. Even if at first I was doubting their capabilities in making this duty really successful, I'm glad that it turned out well. Actually, better than "well". More like one of the BEST major duties ever. That's the main reason why I'll KINDA miss them when I go off to college. But I think, I'll miss the duty MORE than I'll miss them. I might not even miss them at all...haha. kidding! I'm really glad that this bunch turned out to be out counterparts. Even if they're not as sociable as us, they still tried to be sociable and friendly.

The Blog Project. #3 & #4

Sorry if I wasn't able to post yesterday! :( I was out the whooole daaaay, so I had no chance to blog. :( Sooo, to make up for my absence yesterday, I shall post 2 posts under "The Blog Project" today! :)

So, for The Blog Project. #3 we have,

 

My Charity 'Kada. <3 

The past 2 years have been an amazing roller coaster ride with these lovely ladies! :) Without them, my high school life would surely be a blah. I'll really miss these faces when I go off for college! I'll surely miss playing UNO or Monopoly Deal, photoshoot-ing, invading planners, formulating pick-up lines, and passing post-its, with this bunch. :(

Next up!

for The Blog Project. #4, we have,

My First Year class 'kada. :)

These beautiful girlaloos really made the start of my High School really memorable! :) What's even more amazing about it is that, we make it a point that at least once a year, we meet up at Louise's (2nd girl from the left) or go to Promenade (mall located somewhere in Greenhills). Another amazing thing we do is whenever all of us are invited to a certain event, like a debut or a party, we TRY to make it a point to take a picture together. We still try to keep our friendship really strong despite the other barkadas we have. I'll surely miss KS-ing (kwento session-ing; gossiping, catching-up, etc.), watching concerts, and just chilling with these girlaloos. :)

The Blog Project. #2

My ever loving, ever supportive, SUPER HYPER ACTIVE, ever sweetest class,

IV- CHARITY. <3 

I've been with this bunch of lovely ladies for 3 years, but it felt like I've known them for more than 3 years. The very first time I found out who my classmates will be for Sophomore Year, I immediately panicked.  I didn't have any idea who half of my soon-to-be classmates are. I was telling myself that I won't be able to enjoy the remaining years I have in my school if I'll be with this bunch of people. But then that changed when the first week of Sophomore Year came. It was like everything clicked from the on set of the school year. I never imagined that I'll be able to completely click with almost everybody in my class. It was only in this class did I get to talk to most of them. It was also only in this class that I get to show them who I really am without holding back anything.

I'll surely miss these people. They've been such sweet and really amazing sisters to me for 3 years. I'll surely never ever forget then when I go off for college. :)

The Blog Project.

I've been thinking. 

I've only got less than a month of "normal school days" before our final examination. :( huhuhu. I'll surely miss my school and everything that's in it! :)) The facilities, the teachers, the classrooms, maintenance staff, security guards, my friends, classmates, org-mates, EVERYTHING!!! Even the food, breakfast, snacks, even the stray cats wandering around our school and preying on the garbage cans. Leaving the school that has nurtured you for quite some time is something really hard to leave behind. That's why, I've come up with a solution! :) I was actually inspired by my friend, Kim, who started making this album on Facebook entitled, "Reasons why I'll miss HS". :) So starting today until March. 24, 2012, which is my graduation day, I shall post a picture that I'll miss in High School when I leave for college. I'll really try my best to post DAILY! I'll super try! :))) HAHA. 

So, for my first post...

*taken during the Freshmen Interaction thing-o in Xavier*

My EVERY LOVING, EVERY SUPPORTIVE, ONE-OF-A-KIND, GAY, CAT SISTUUUHS, KAPISANAN <3 

We're not complete here though. :( HUHUHU. Anyway, I really love this bunch! I wouldn't be able to survive CAT and High School life if it weren't for these lovely people! Through hardships and trials, our bond was really put to the test and I'm glad that by the end of the day, our bond became stronger than ever. For 3 years I've spent my CAT life with them and I wouldn't trade that for ANYTHING in the world. I'll surely miss them when we go off for college. :( 

My day in Photos/ Post from Fatmumslim. :)

I'm REALLY SORRY if I've been "dead" lately. :( huhuhu. 

Really, I'm super sorry! It's just that, my internet connection sucks...so yeaaah. :< 

But that didn't stop me from planning for my future posts. ;) HAHA.

Okay, so, during the weekend, I tried out this photo challenge from Fatmumslim. Since I've not

been really consistent with a daily photo challenge, I challenged myself to try out for an hourly photo challenge. :)

I did succeed...SORT OF...:<...BUT WAIT. I'd just like to say, I have a very reasonable explanation

WHY I wasn't able to take a picture for some of the hours...
So, without any further ado, I present to you, MY DAY IN PHOTOS.

10:00 AM : I saw the hourly photo challenge at fatmumslim. :) *CHALLENGE ACCEPTED* 

11:00 AM: Breakfaaaast! :) Cereal mixed with nuts and corniks.:) It has this sweet-garlicy taste. :))) It's actually a good alternative for chips. :) 

 12:00 NN: Planner updaaaaate! ;))))) 

 1:00 PM: Beef Broccoli for LUUUUUNCH! :) FYI, it's the first time my mom ever cooked this particular dish. :) All I can say is, MISSION: ACCOMPLISHED. ;) 

2:00 PM: Got some fancy dark chocolate.:p~ hihihi. 

 3:00 PM: FACEBOOOOK TIIIIME!!!!! hihihihihi.

4:00 PM: I was looking at some pictures my friend took a few days ago. :)))) The moment I saw this particular photo, I immediately laughed my heart out. =))))) HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. It truly never fails to make my day. =)) 

 5:00 PM: Pizza from S&R. FYI, S&R is similar to target or cosco in the states. ;) hihhi. I just loooove their pizza!!! :p~ 

6:00-9:00 PM: *IM REALLY SORRY FOR NOT TAKING PHOTOS OF 7PM, 8PM AND 9PM :( huhuhu* Anyway, my VERY REASONABLE EXPLANATION ISSS......I've been dealing with this video I'm making for my friend, Mia (the 2nd girl from the right; front row), for her SURPRISE 18th birthday part, (photos to be posted soon) ;) hihihi. So yeah, that's one of the photos I used for the video. :) 

10:00 PM: One awesome way of ending the weekend is by watching "Gandang Gabi Vice" GGV. ;) Gandang  Gabi means Good Evening, btw. ;)) Vice is the name of the host of GGV. :)) (He's the one in the left) =)))

THE END. ;)

I shall try this again this coming weekend. ;;)

Glee Cast - We Are Young (Glee Cast Version)

Hi guys! :) Sorry for the delay post. :( My internet wasn't working well last night. :( HUHUHU. Anyway, so another inspirational song for me! :) Although this may not be as deep as compared to Jason Mraz's I won't give up, this song reminds me to always treasure every moment of my "teen" life. :)) It also tells me to enjoy being young, to not be too eager to grow up. To savor every minute of being young. :) I hope you guys like this song and also find the meaning that I found in this song. ;)

All of the Lights

This is my first post for "Be Inspired, Mondays" and to be honest I have no idea what to post. But then while searching for pictures on Pinterest (Credits to Pinterest for these amazing pictures, by the way), the first photo here caught my attention. So through that, I was inspired to post about lights! :) 

It's amazing how a single speck of light can light up a whole dark room or can make a dull thing become sooo magical. :)) 

It also give out that warm, cheery and romantic vibe. :"> It also makes any occasion perfect! :)

See how amazing lights are? @-)

Hope these inspired you guys as well. ;)

Where to Begin...

So, Where to Begin?

Like what I said in my previous post, it's been approximately 2 months since I've last posted and I seriously do not know where to begin. A lot of things happened in a span of 2 months. Let's start with what happened last November. :) 

So, last November, I had my 18th birthday. (Pictures to be posted as soon as possible). :) It was fun, really! Though it was sort of awkward when the spotlight's on YOU THE WHOLE TIME and people glance at you every 10 minutes or so. So I had to smile the WHOOOOLE time. But I didn't really force myself to smile the whole time, I think I was just naturally happy that's why my cheek muscles didn't hurt the next day. So a few days after my debut, we had our field trip at Gawad Kalinga (Photos to be posted soon as well) with Faith, Solidarity and Sobriety. That was the FIRST TIME I've ever painted a house! EVER!!!!! and it was SUPER FUUUUN!!! Except when there are bugs blocking the parts I have to paint on or when paint suddenly splatters on our faces. :))) A week after that, we had our class night+Aimee's 18 birthday. The Class Night was truly memorable. It was one of those days that I realized how much I'm going to miss my class, Charity and that in a few months I'll be graduating already and go off to college. :( (Photos to be posted soooon. ;) ) Aimee's debut was fun as well! Though I was sort of sleepy throughout the entire debut because I slept REALLY LATE because of the class night. :)) But I still managed to have a really great time at Aimee's party. :) 

After that comes December. :)

Last December wasn't as festive as compared to November but it was magical in a sense that I really felt the Christmas spirit that year. We had our annual Christmas party and sadly it was our last. :( HUHUHUHU. After which we went straight to Eastwood and then to Aina's house for Mari's belated birthday surprise then the next day, I went to Rache's house for her birthday treat at Ace Water Spa with Jem, Ge, Wong and Ting. A few days after, Me, Ge, Jem, Wong, Ting, Rache, Irben and Hans went to Eastwood for Rache and Jem's surprise and of course Rache's ball proposal to Ban-ban but unfortunately, Ban-ban didn't make it, so Rache had to ask through phone but with a twist. :)) Like all 8 of us had a specific phrase to say until Rache will pop the question "Will you go to ball with me?". I forgot exactly what each of us said, but it was continuous and it actually made sense! :)

After days of boredom and wrecking my notebook comes January. :)

January has a lot of surprises...and still yet to come (or so I think)! It was when ALL OF THE CETs were released! First came UST, but then it turned out it was a leak, so it wasn't really official. So the legit one that came out first was La Salle and they released the results while in the middle of our English class, which was like around 11:30. :)) So all of my classmates/ batchmates who took the DLSU-CET ran to the library or to the guidance counselor's office to check if they passed La Salle. The after that, came THE ACET. :)) Then the USTet, then finally the UPCAT, which sadly, I failed to pass. :( Huhuhu. But that's alright! :) At least I have a college alreaddddyyy! :) (UE, here I come. ;) ). Oh! before that, We had our last major duty as COs. :( HUHUHU. and it turned out to be the FUN-EST and most memorable duty everrr! Not because there were guys there, but it was when I saw everybody from the COs up to the COC 3s how happy they are in their duty. :) We also met a couple of new people too! :)) Like our XS counterparts and their NCOs and COCs. Even though we met our counterparts months before the actual duty, it was only on that day that I really got to know them more. We even had a "CAT COED *JEJE*" picture together (Which I shall post soon) :) We also had our retreat at MaryHill in Taytay! :) (details and photos soon since it's suppose to be kept a secret until everybody in our batch was able to have their retreat already) :) Haha. I also had my Talumpati already! :) And Extemporaneous speech! It was scarrrrry as hell. But fortunately, it turned out well. :)

Well, that's what happened to me in the 2 months I've been gone. :)) I promise to post pictures sooon! :)) HAHAHA. and I'll try to post more often compared to last year. :)) HAHAHHAA. 

Cheers to the months ahead. :)

Jason Mraz - I Won't Give Up (Official Lyric Video)

I just realized that it's been months since the last time I've posted. :O whoops. =))) Sorry for that. :-j HAHAHA. I've been quite busy with a lot of stuff recently. (Well, most of them not related to school though. :-j) HAHAHA. To make up for my absence, I shall post as many posts as I could tonight. :) HAHA. *Challenge Aceepted* ;) To start off, Here's a song to sort of "legalize" my "relationship" with this lovely blog of mine. ;) But other than that, I really like you guys to listen to this song. It's like God talking to you and telling you that He's always there for you no matter what, and that He won't give up on us no matter how many time we do bad things and stuff. :( So yeaaah. Hope you guys like this song!!! <3 

(I literally teared-up the first time I heard this) :))

Shopping with a bit of future talking.

This is suuuuch a late late late post. :)) HAHAHA
Here's a gist of what happened on this day and of course, some pictures to back up the tid bits of this fine fair experience. :)

My mom invited Aina (my host for my debut) and Mari (the event organizer/ event programs head) over to my house to check out the event place where my debut was held. :) Afterwards, we had lunch at Zong's were we discussed how the flow of the debut will be. After that my mom dropped us off at Trinoma for some window shopping. :)) Here are just some of the pictures of that day. :)

 these aren't real, okay. :)) I think they are coin containers. :)) HAHAH cute right? :)

 satchels are just to DIIIIIE for :-j

I tried this dress on, and ..... it did suit me well... except for some....circumstances that I just can't seem to understand WHY it has to be LIKE THAT in such a way that I'm extremely ashamed of it. :)) <<< I don't make any sense there, do I? :))

DIY Pinatas// from Ohhappyday

So while I was doing my daily routine of blog-hopping, I came across this DIY project about how to make mini pinatas. Although I'm not a fan of Pinatas or anything, I found these ones adoraaaable and I had this feeling that someday, I'll be needing this tutorial. :)) AND BESIDES, not only can you make horse-like pinatas using this tutorial, but you can also think out of the box and create something even more tad than unicorns/ horses for pinatas. :) Right? ;) 

I'm not gonna put the step by step process of the DIY project since I'm not the one who did it, so if you guys want a step by step instruction of this project, go to: http://ohhappyday.com/2011/10/mini-pinatas-diy/

and check out more of their DIY projects. :) 

Hope you guys are enjoying the halloween! :)

Chris Brown feat. Justin Bieber - Next To You (Official Music Video)

Next To You! <3Sorry for the delay post :( At least its just a day late, right? ;;) hihihi. Well this is a longer and slower version of the song. :)) Just got it from youtube. :)It's a sad music video :(( But the meaning of the song really struck me the most. :< Hope you guys enjoy this one. ;) Even if it's like really slow compared to the original beat. :))

Beige+Brown+Burgundy+Leopard Prints

I've been wanting to wear something like this ever since I saw this leopard print blazer in Zara. :)) 

So with that inspiration in mind, I've decided to make a mini "style board" using Polyvore to come up with an ensemble that highlights blazers and leopard prints. <3 I REALLY LOVE THIS STYLE! :) It's so chic and safari looking at the same time. :) I'm just loving leopard prints right now! ;;)
