Love comes when you least expect it.
at the most unexpected places and unexpected times.
a few months back i remember "promising" myself not to fall in love again until after i graduate.
or even until after i Pass my board exam. a year and a half from now.
didn't seem like a bad idea.
well, until he came along, that is.
truth is, i have never met anyone more perfect for me.
and i've never been more Me with any other guy till now.
Happy.
Thank you God!
of course, all relationships have obstacles. well, tonight i've done nothing but Try to tell my parents that yes, just as the year is new, so is my boy...friend. yup, Kami na. Yehey!
my dad and i are close. and he wasn't that happy last time i had a boyfriend. we were kinda distant, and i saw that he was disappointed with some decisions i made. it hurt me because i could see that he wasn't happy. and no way do i want that to happen again.
after a few months of heartaches, God has again blessed me with someone.
after much thinking (though not much time), i decided that yes, this guy is good for me and yes, i do Love him.
dad? still there!
i asked my dad out this morning. we were supposed to have quiet yummy dinner somewhere and i would gently ease in the news.
i was anxious the whole day, unbelievable!
we ended up in podium, to eat at banana leaf (yum!)
turns out my mum and two sisters decided to join us. so i was like. ummm....ummmm... sarap ng food noh....ummmm.... kami na... did i say anything? no...ummm. SARAP!
hay.... i did wanna tell them na, it's so Not me to hide something. (my friends can attest to this, nothing blunter than my truth.)
so dinner ended, and we girls decided to shop around. ate and risa were trying out clothes at Just G! (hey, i love the clothes there.papayat muna! : ) ) i told my ate... ate, im planning to tell dad na... to which the two frantically replied: huwat? um, sel. wag muna. we want to buy clothes first, baka magalit yan ha..... nice one! supportahantaka....
i was so anxious wasn't looking at the stuff much. (although may nice Unisa shoes that cost a "reasonable" 5000 pesos, pink and green polka dot sandals... cute! im so happy wasn't shopping with the ultimate shopping B.I. ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) fabulouslydazed hehehe. wink!) anyways, ate and ris went to me, feeling secret convention. and i just wanted their opinion. ate said, "don't you think sasabihin ni dad masyadong mabilis?" to which i replied: HUH?! e dati nga si X di nya kilala sabi ko boyfriend ko na e. (defensive. hehe)
after shutting up, i realized she meant that ang bilis ko magka-new boyfriend. um: oh well? kala ko nga 1 1/2 years eh. anobato? pag-ibig! hehehehe. who wants to make a movie?
to sum it up, mission unsuccessful. i wasn't able to "make tapat". what did i learn today? hirap maging guy! if i were a guy pala, i'd be the torpe type. erKh! pero cute pa rin. plus mabango.
dang! will try again tomorrow. LJ friends, pray for me!

wow, the long day is over.
finally. i can actually enjoy my BREAK now, though not fully since i have accounting exam next week.
but at least i can take tonight off.
anyways, our reporting for FIC didn't go as well as we wanted. in a word: sabog.
kinda frustrating since we really worked for this the entire semester, sniff, and we really knew what we were talking about.
just that the elements were wrong.
1. the council LCD projector was missing. (uhoh talaga)
2. we were running late("sleep"over at my house and major photofinish)
3. our paper was missing parts
4. we forgot to make a table of contents
5. we left the Budget at home
6. oh, by the way, UP was sabog in general, at 8:30, the room was actually empty. we were about to report to no one.
what makes this report bad wasn't that we sucked. i think we were okay, just that we weren't that ready. what made it worse was that we wanted to make it good and under normal circumstances, we probably could have. but as the principle of marginal utility dictates, that was the best we could have come up with considering we had exams for the past 2 days.
on hindsight, our group has learned a lot. after being subject to all possible technical difficulties (earlier this sem, we had a worst report. we had four laptops and all of them DIED or rendered useless...), we're about to master the art of dealing with bullshit. in fact, after a couple more, we can probably do away with technology and report with a whiteboard marker. huHah!
sidenote: amidst all the stress, kuya made me happy. gave me a pink starbucks mug! hehehe....

third time today to post an entry? the art of stalling. heheh. "yes, yes, i will go back to you, tax book." in a WHILE.
after mass, i decided i deserved a break before studying, hence, i changed into dancing clothes (yes, im well already!) and started stretching and dancing. well, after a few seconds of weird exercises, i overdid a jumpturn (or whatever that was that i tried to do) and i kind busted my thigh. nice one hehe. i didn't injure it that bad though. nagulat lang ata
i promise to study at 8 till my body gives up.
but now, i will reminisce the dancing days. hehe (not again!) cant help it, it was a life-changing experience. sniffsniff.
this summer, i will seriously take up jazz and yoga. bellydancing? hmmm. depends. just out of curiousity maybe. Hahaha.
pep memories:

was sick yesterday, as in runny nose and everything else that makes one feel most unattractive. unfortunately, have work to do and sickness doesn't excuse me from that. meeting at starbucks. in Pambahay. jogging pants, big shirt and tsinelas. matched with unbrushed hair. hehe. major pulubi effect.
lucky for me, i met a lot of people i knew. from high school (co-cap aisa atilano), some new friends, and BA people. great!
on the way ou,t however, Beauty Bar gave me a treat. i love shopping in the store. bought myself a makeup bag. heheheh. now to look for stuff to put inside. (wink!)

two weeks of multi-tasking (to the nth power) finally caught up with me.
as of sunday, my body gave in and i got sick.
of course, that didn't stop me from watching elevate, after all, it's probably one of the things that tired me out the most.
the compet and the concert were great. although the order of dances was a bit off (parang mali yung lasting feeling sa audience)... but hats off to the UP PEp! they've really gone a long way.. baliktad na nga mundo nila e. it takes them more effort to be right side up. i swear they must have spent 1/3 of the time inverted. heheh. galing!
im so proud of my org (UP JPIA). oo na, perennial 3rd placer sa elevate = ) but im still so proud cos these people weren't dancers to begin with. these are accounting students with the love for dancing. okay = ) and im happy that everyone's happy. = ) (they gave us white roses yesterday as a thank you token. sniff)
anyways, i just woke up from a 14 hour restful sleep, but still have cough and colds, when will this end?! tiramisu ice cream is waiting for me at the freezer.!!!!
yummy foods on my mind that i cannot eat due to colds:
1. chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream from Baskin *(&*^#&$)@&
2. glass of cold cold iced tea (&^(&*@#%&$*^$^))
3. cheesecake (or baka pwede... hehehe)
4. cold mango shake!
5. vanilla milk shake!
i should be happy im sick ata... mukhang pig-out when im well na. eheheheh
AH-CHOOOOOOO!!!!
p/s. congrats to UP Streetdance and UP Filipiniana! wag na kayo sumali next year, sige na. hehehe. joke!

i've been keeping a secret...
most dancers *or those who have tried to seriously Dance* would understand the Extreme pressure to be fit, as in fit enough to wear anything your coach would order you to wear and fit enough to not be classified as a guy or a girl (as in strong... and maybe flat....whoops). fit as in strong.
That's one thing that has unfortunately stuck with me, the pressure and the "discontent" with my body. well sometimes lang. Food has always been my friend. yumyumyumyumyum.... and my craving for food is normally enough to shut up these insecurities. = ) (hungry as i speak)
the past few weeks have been different for me. i guess you can say that i have been doing a lot of soul searching and making a lot of serious decisions (in terms of friendships, plans for next year, blah)... and I think I've changed much.
anyways, during these days of floating in a daze, one of my collegemates asked me if i would help my org by modelling in their fashion show. nice One. that's one thing i never tried and never thought of doing. cos wala lang. im not stick thin, and it's just Awkward.
before i knew it I said Yes. ack! and i told myself not to think twice or not to think about it even. so there for the past week i've gone to the warehouse of Chocolate (nice Clothes!) in Pateros (hehe... who would have thought?)with people that i wasn't that close to or some i didn't know at all. i've practiced in secret. as in none of my barkada from high school or college or any relatives knew (now, they would na) what i was up to. i was kinda excited about it cos it was different. like i was in a dream. or a nightmare. heheh.
anyways, the fashion show was last night. and as much as i loved the experience, i don't think modelling is for me. Omigod! i didn't eat much from 12 to 7 (hehehe) and i was so HUNGRY and SURROUNDED by Food! practically everyone was eating donuts and junk and sarap food that i kinda ate a bit. i was so frustrated and annoyed that i had to wait until after the show to eat that i actually turned out to be a "mataray" model. HOW do they expect me to smile when I'm hungry. heheh. maybe that's why models don't smile. think about it....
conclusion: stick to dancing. at least i can burn what i eat.
conclusion2: magaling magmake up yung body shop people. migoodness, i was so amazed by how they did it, i was tempted to ask what they put in my face. it felt like around 20 different products though and i think mamumulubi ako if i buy it all. natural beauty na lang muna. = )
conclusion 3: it's fun to try out new things. despite the end of my "career" (hehe), i realized that there is much to learn and try. at least, it's a story that i can one day tell my grandkids. hehe.
next up: sleeping in the streets, or maybe learn how to play an instrument. = )

WATCH ELEVATE!
I can't believe it. Elevate is just around the corner (march 8, 7pm). i can remember promising myself to have my abs back by then. huhu. where are you, abs? where are you? huhu.
Elevate is UP Pep Squad's 4th university-wide cheering competition and 2nd UP Pep Squad Concert. Full event name: Elevate 4 LIFT ONE ANOTHER UP. sniff. pep squad memories....
anyways, cant wait to see what the Pep Squad has in store for everyone this year. hope its as galing or even better than last year's concert. WAH!
tickets are cheap. definitely worth it. for those who can come, or interested, its on monday 7pm.
my abs still stand a chance.... pressure. less than a week to go (crunch!crunch!)

sometimes we give up on people
when we fail to understand them
who says we have to
when we dont even fully understand ourselves
we expect people to be perfect
or to be like us
when we ourselves make mistakes
when we ourselves hurt others
unintentionally
or otherwise
real friends...
these are people who do not seek explanations
they are those who try to understand
without being asked
they are those who realize that they too are human
that we are all human
people are quick to judge
when they do not know
when do they do not see
people play god
when they cannot comprehend
the greatest test of friendships
lies before me
who is true? who is honest?
and who is just plain "judgemental" (aaahhh... a favorite word)
who sees beyond the surface
who cares enough to know what is real
i refuse to please
i refuse to change who i am
i wish to be understood
but not to the point of being miserable
if they do not understand
or they do not wish to
i must and will let go.

There are things we cannot say
Feelings we keep inside
Thoughts we refuse to air out
But the tears betray us from hiding.
These droplets speak of joy
Of sadness
Of bitterness
Of anger. Of utter frustration.
I am free.
No one can stop me from crying.
No one can.
Let my tears speak
For the bitterness and hurt that I feel.
For the feelings I cannot explain.
No one can tell me to keep quiet.
No one can force me to stop.
No one can.
Let me hide behind my tears.
Just let me cry.
