TRY READING "TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE" BY MITCH ALBOM
I was planning to go to school after lunch yesterday, but it turns out that it was only half-day. So I spent the rest of the afternoon finishing Tuesdays With Morrie. It's a very good and inspiring story and I found a spark to stop being pessimistic and start being optimistic again.
And there are no classes in school again today. The storm is really strong and I feel bad for the homeless people...
I feel like burning a CD. *erherm, Gia...*
After the F.I. Youth Camp last Friday/Saturday, I miss Chase (a.k.a. Kuya Topher) even more. I didn't get to talk to him and it makes me nostalgic.
But why do I feel this way? He's not my crush anymore, and I'm sure that this isn't love either... It can't be lurve. I'm too young to fall in lurve....
During his talk on servant-leadership, he told us a story when he was in Gr. 1: After doing his business in the washroom, he pulled up his shorts but forgot to wear his underpants. It must've been uncomfortable, so during lunch, he wanted to wear undies but there were higher batches in front of the CR and he's patronized by them. There was no other place for him to change, thus he finally decided to change in.... THE MIDDLE OF THE GYM. He pulled down his shorts again and was about to put on his briefs when everyone stopped everything they did; it was the Angelus. He had nothing else to do but just stand butt-naked while covering his self with his shorts.
When he finished the story, I couldn't tell what was its connection with Christian servant-leadership. But he said that if a boy who was laughed at for doing such a stupid thing became part of the student councils when he was in elementary, high school, and college, what more of the others? I'm so amazed by his wisdom and confidence. He's really interesting. Chase is the type of person who is sincere with his words yet there you could find hope in him. When I got to know him last summer in Cagayan and Camiguin, I was really glad to meet him. It was because of him that I believed in my strengths. He said in Cagayan that I was assertive, and I told him it was impossible because I was always a push-over since my mother tried to run away; I told on my brother because he was annoying me and then Mom got angry and didn't spend the night in our house and my sister kept on throwing me angry looks...... Well, maybe there are times that I can be assertive. But I know that most of the time I'm not.

New thoughts adrifting again...
I am still in search of my very own object of infatuation. The reason why I used to update more often was because of *bleep*, who is also my eye-opener and inspiration. Speaking of *bleep*, I am already getting closer to him and sort of becoming friends. And I like that better than the time he was my crush.
It has been some time since I've updated here. But the truth is, I have no spark to motivate me in writing. I don't know what to say anymore because I'm afraid that I'd say something that's wrong... something that would make me seem 'egoistic' (which I am and trying not to be).
You know, this life really confuses me. When I don't think before doing something, I hurt people and I'd feel really bad. But when I think before acting, something or someone would rush and hurry me up, and I'd feel awful again and I'd also look stupid. It all sucks. What do people want from me?
Anyhoo, my mood is getting better. It's currently rainy and cold, and I'm contented with it (although I pity the ones who have no proper homes). When it's not raining, the heavens would resemble a swirl of vanilla ice cream. Occasionally the blue tinges would also show, and, as always, the sky would take my breath away.
I wish I knew how to fly and to walk in the sky. It would be the best gift that I would ever have...
It's too bad, though, that I am phobic of heights, despite the fact that I would like to see the world from a very high perspective. I pray for the day to come when I that fear will escape from me.

is history really repeating itself?
it's a really funny movie, though. and it's cute. but it's really not worth wasting your time over... i've notice that new movies from hollywood are starting to have the 90's theme. take "thunderbirds" for example, and you'd feel 90's-ish and captain-planet-slash-ninja-turtles-sort of air by just reading the name...
today is a rainy day. a very rainy day. and very rainy days make me sleepy, so after i ate lunch and did my chores, i went to sleep for three undisturbed hours, which is rare for me on weekends.
and our rooms are almost done. i can't wait to invite my friends to come here in my place to have a sleep-over.
hear that, gia? eeeh?? hyukhyukhyuk! i'm having a sleep-over! harhar! and yer invited! *pours wine onto a glass* *sips* *hiccups* tee-hee! c'mere as soon as the house is already... fixed. (please don't mind the unnecessary laughs ::grin::)
oooh, i must start writing normally (var: in a weird way) as soon as possible...

I'm exceptionally artistic!

Fair enough. Perhaps they haven't. But now that you know, you must become one with your inner self.
Virtues: You look for immense creativity and individuality in people, including yourself. You're not happy with anything less than brilliant, and you focus on being expressive. You value energy, liveliness, and upbeat personalities, but you're not supportive of moodiness when you yourself can be unreliably moody. Seeking activity, you like the bustle of business but need the secluded atmosphere of a studio or private corner.
Aspirations: You feel the need to express your talents, whether it be through writing, drawing, singing, dancing, composing, performing, or photographing. While you strive to ever improve your work, you want to display it as soon as possible when your impatience kicks in. You want to be a prodigy but you might not have the means right at your fingertips. Trust me, do NOT move to New York to do it. Yeesh!
Quirks: Conformists bother you because of their lack of individuality. You're often late or unreliable. You're showy and refuse to share the spotlight. You only tell little white lies. You worm your way into the hearts of others, but be careful; some people despise the show-offs.
Factors: Surround yourself with activity and you'll always have material to work with. Involve friends and family in your projects so they don't feel like envious outsiders.
Future: Show business or not, you'll settle down happily if you're among those who appreciate your natural talents and desire to perform. Don't stay in one place too long, and don't be too hasty in defining your relationships. Who are you to judge what only time will tell?

i wish i was more responsible. because if i was, i wouldn't be as stressed as i am now. i couldn't sleep properly; i toss and turn. why? i lost my index card in p.e. and i couldn't find it. i knew i tucked it in a book and when i returned to that book it wasn't there anymore, as if someone took it and threw it away... what's worse, ms. gregorios will fail me. and what's even worse is that gia's index card was with mine so it's also lost... as if i haven't done enough wrong to her. why is this happening now? why did it get lost, of all the stupid days in my stupid life?
wait...
something's wrong with me. there's a big itchy scab somewhere that i want to pick off but i couldn't find it. something is REALLY wrong with me: stressed out, forgetful, skeptical, untrustworthy, self-centered, insensitve-slash-oversensitive, confused, and scatter-brained...
I WASN'T LIKE THIS! gawd, someone help me! PLEASE!
why is this happening to me?....

i think that i have fever... but i'm still going to ballet later...
my brain does a lot more work than my body. i've been saying that i do so many things but now that i've compared my workload to gia's, i found out that mine are actually small. it's just that i don't exercise a lot and don't play ANY sport and i worry easily...
in other words, my skinny body is becoming a bit frail. but it's kinda weird because i'm not usually frail and i don't get tired easily. i've got abs, dudes! i think it's the child-stress that causes this.
DAMN YOU, CHILD STRESS!!!
i want to be absent this monday. i REALLY do think that i'm going to have a fever; my temperature is very hot, i have sniffles, and my head hurts.
i wish i didn't stand in the rain.
