1:30 pm	An Enchanting Fairytale of Today naya (my classmate) told me to try to watch walt disney's "enchanted" starring amy adams, patrick dempsey and susan sarandon...she liked it that much..she was relaying the story to me and pau the other day..so for the weekend i invited poti to watch it with me..it turned out great..it felt like i was a kid again, watching a classic fairytale...and it's in 2D..which is nice .lagi nalang 3D kc.. anyway..it's a crossover of animation and the real world..a fairytale character gets thrown to the human world and then finds yet another fairytale in the city that never sleeps..naks..it's funny kc di ba nga fairytale characters are very optimistic and pleasant..bottom-line, you won't expect them to be able to live and survive in the real world..pero in the movie, gisselle (amy adams) who came from the fairytale land, brought her fairytale vibe in new york..people were singing and dancing..and animals were singing with her..kakatuwa..siyempre she ended up loving a new yorker ("robert" played by patrick dempsey) instead of her prince edward (james marsden)...hehe..siyempre a story like this won't be complete without a wicked witch!!..the role was played by susan sarandon..hehe you guys should watch it..di siya corny..nakakatuwa! promise!! hehe (Comment on this)

1:44 am	something i'm really good at.        I've been known to be very clumsy at times,... most of the time actually     But never have i been involved in more than 5 "clumsy situations" in one day..         at least not until tonight.... I was with my dorm mates the whole evening....with chino and joy...i know..third wheel again! We planned to have dinner and watch "the seeker"..in trinoma..     itinerary....buy ticket, eat dinner, look for a dvd, coffee break, movie...- just a guide for my story below..hehe 1st incident...      we were just walking..talking to each other..i suddenly bumped onto a couple..maybe i was looking elsewhere...i sure know it was a hard hit on the shoulder...sorry..he was forgiving..thank God! 2nd incident...       at the movie ticketing area...I was talking to chino and joy..i moved back then i almost caused a guy to trip...sorry...i wasn't able to catch her reaction but i feel like it's not good...good thing they were in a hurry for something... 3rd incident...     we were on our way to the restaurant plaza..sure, there was an exit sign somewhere, but i passed through the entrance area...haha! joy was mocking me..this isn't a clumpsy moment but it is worth that anyway...hehe 4th incident...     as if i still needed another bumping incident...hay... 5th incident...     at odyssey..we were looking for looking a dvd copy of "goal 2"...i tripped on a  CD stand almost causing it to fall...clumsy!!!!! 6th and final incident...     we bought a box of mary grace lemon squares...being the gentleman that i am (hm hm.) i offered to carry the pastry for joy..seconds after she gave me the plastic bag, i dropped them on the floor!..wow! what a day!..when i turned back to look for people who noticed, there was an 'aristocratic' looking woman with a "why-did-you-drop-those?-it's-food-can't-you-see!!?" look...hay...shame shame...i walked as fast as i could..away from the place...what a scene.. on our way back to coffee bean...in an escalator..a kid just behind us fell backwards..it was scary, i really thought he was going to fall straight down..i helped him get up..     honestly, i thought i saw myself for a second or two...hehe..     yey! i helped someone...atleast i did something good tonight..amidst the things that i have just mentioned above...hehe.. i just realized that there's some spontaneity in me..clumsiness!!! (demonic laugh)... P.S. sorry for the font color ha..di kita yung iband color with my page background..hehe Tchüss! Current Mood: happy (Comment on this)

4:32 am	things money can't definitely buy How come i don't feel really relieved now that 1st semester is over? I mean, with what we have gone through, i should be savoring my break..but i'm not.. It was hard..going through our first semester..really hard..i don't have to explain.. right now though, I still feel like i wanna go back there..not to change anything, but just be there.. it's crazy i know...what can i do? my mind is a bit twisted... Maybe because i had fun..really..           diagnosing ward cases;     scrubbing in for surgical procedures;     standing up to one of the most feared doctors in UERM;     purposely avoiding a PD meeting;     getting to really know my groupmates;     almost falling off a flight of stairs;     passing an exam i surely knew i'd fail (legal medicine);     getting into bed after a long night doing my PD paper;     going back to the dorm hungry and discovering that my dorm mates left food for me(thanks joy and chino);     making the biggest mistake of my life and correcting it;     smoking for the first time (in my dreams);     drinking for the last time (in my dreams still);     updating my friendster during the busiest time of the week;     witnessing the harry potter saga end;     seeing my poti everyday.. -things money can't definitely buy- ....sigh....  (1 Comment |Comment on this)

6:37 pm	crossing aurora boulevard Exam day...     I was early. Our exam was scheduled at 9 am in CA.. i was in school at around 7.30 am...     I had to cross aurora boulevard to get to the blue Building, which was where we were having our exams.                               This is a highway..and the part that we have to cross is devoid of traffic light..so it's hard to to the other side..     As i was crossing, i realized something...                    When we are by ourselves, we get to the other side faster....                    Couples cross the street together...it takes a while...but they do it together..                    Friends, well if there's a lot of them, it's hard to get to the other side..some will wait for the others, others won't...                                      Some will get to the other side before others do..some will help each other out..                                                            Of course, other people will not notice these things..i just did today..i don't know why..              I was just thinking about it when i finally arrived in CA..the same thing happens in life..when you're alone, by yourself, it's easier, you don't have to worry about others..that's a very selfish thought..but it's true..you only have to to do things for yourself..like crossing the street..Couples, well they do things together..most of the time, at least..that makes them happy, seeing that they are with each other..i'm happy with poti..friends, well..it's a different thing..i care for my friends, i help.. i'm definitely the type who would wait for the others and be with them when crossing..depends on my mood, actually, but i would say..most of the time..       I sat on my usual seat, 6th row from the stage, 1st chair from the aisle...i was the third to arrive..the room was colder than ever..i started reviewing my highlighed transcriptions..going over them one by one while waiting for the others to arrive...                   Current Mood: nostalgic Current Music: Dirty litte secret - the all american rejects (4 Comments |Comment on this)

8:07 pm	after 3 months.. I was studying last night, like i always do every weekend since the 15th of july ..then i took a break..i listened to the new songs i've downloaded from limewire..One of the new ones that i've downloaded was that of sigur ros..i haven't heard of them before, just last night..i don't know if they're a band or an orchestra..but they created songs that really made me feel relaxed while listening to them..it's like i have forgotten that i still have to study for the exam in HEENT on monday....while listening to their songs i had some thoughts..           when i was a kid..i never thought of any problem that i or my family had at that time..i just wanted to play all day..i never cared if what  would happen the next day, or what would happen if i grew tired of playing with my toys...                 it  would be great to go back to that..no worries all day long..just play..just do what your mind tells you..regardless of what people tell you or what the world requires of you..           right now, it's like we're soldiers working for a general, like citizens of a country under martial law, like children of a very strict parent..we do what is required of us, every single day..it's always a ratrace..we have to beat due dates all the time..because otherwise, we get reprimanded..the sad thing is, there's no remorse for the "higher ups"...we get scared sometimes, of what happens if we don't get to satisfy them..         these are the things that we have to do to be abe to secure a good future....a good future??...a good future...             i just wish that this will be over soon..i just wish that i could just play all day long....and sleep...and eat...and live....          then, i turned my ipod off..and went back to studying with only the sound of the rain outside and my voice, repeating the things that i have already studied......to listen to..           Current Mood: lethargic Current Music: glosoli by sigur ros (Comment on this)

9:02 pm	its almost the end of our freshmen year here in UERMMMC quite a long year but i enjoyed it none the less maybe it's because of the people that i've became friends with it's definitely not the campus because nothing about it is worth appreciating.. many of the people that i've met are far different from those that i know from home everything is different here, makes me feel ignorant when i talk to them.. i've learned to blend in the crowd after many months of stay here.. i know someone who never did..sad thing really but that's how life is..
