One of those days that I feel like blogging.
Updates since my last update...
graduated from uni!
almost one year working at ExxonMobil!
crazy about tennis!

Overall, I'm liking with the way things are right now..of course still hoping for some improvements.
But still can't see the clear and big picture yet.. I must first look for the right motivation..
Maybe I'll explain more when I'm in the mood to blog again..hehe

New Linkin Park Single

What I've Done
Linkin Park

In this farewell,
There is no blood,
There is no alibi,
Cause I’ve drawn regret,
From the truth,
Of a thousands lies,
So let mercy come and wash away…

What I’ve Done,
I’ll face myself,
To cross out what I’ve become,
Erase myself,
And let go of what I’ve done…

Put to rest,
What you thought of me
While, I clean this slate,
With the hands,
Of uncertainty,
So let mercy come,
And wash away…

What I’ve Done,
I’ll face myself,
To cross out what I’ve become,
Erase myself,
And let go of what I’ve done…

For what I’ve done,
I start again,
And whatever pain may come,
Today this ends,
I’m forgiving what I’ve done…

I’ll face myself,
To cross out what I’ve become,
Erase myself,
And let go of what I’ve done…

(Na,Na,Na) [Mike Shinoda!]
What I’ve Done,
What I’ve Done,
Forgiving what I’ve done…

LP's new single really sounds different from their previous songs and it was actually kinda refreshing. I'm not sure though if most of the songs in their new album, Minutes to Midnight, will sound like this. But I'm sure that they will still have those rap-rock type of songs to stay true to their roots. Sure, most hardcore LP fans out there may not like their new single, but hey, if you're really a true hardcore fan, you'd appreciate this new style because it shows that they're true artists by being creative with the music they make. It shows that LP is evolving and "growing". Plus, they have a new logo too!

sulyapan

masayang makipagsulyapan at makipagtitigan, lalo n pgnahuhuli mo ung katitigan mo na tumititig sayo hahaha.. I'm just so giddy after submitting the final copy of the fyp report. woohooo! =D

updates!

been so long. where to begin. hmmm...

celebrated X'Mas and New Year in Singapore.For the 2nd time.

would have loved to go home because my cousins (now working in the US) and eldest brother (now living in Pampanga) came home to Naga and my family and relatives on the mother side had a very big reunion. a reunion which always happens during x'mas, new year, fiesta, bdays. almost everyone was there except for one person. the sacrifices we have to make. frack. but still had a lot of fun, and saying this about celebrating X'Mas and New Year (probably the top 2 most fun holidays for Filipinos) in Singapore is really saying a lot. mainly because I was with my friends and anything/anywhere can be fun as long as you're with friends.

shortest, longest and most hellish week of my life: 8 - 15 Jan

was told by FYP supervisor to join the Singapore Robotics Games 2007. basically had 6 weeks to prepare for it, but wasted around 2 weeks (23 Dec - 7 Jan). so crammed all that can be done in a week to make the project ready for competition . team is composed of 2 people, myself and FYP partner which is a part-time student (who is also competing in a different category at the SRG2007). Seven teams participated in the Open Category, 2 from SP, 2 from NYP, 2 from ITE Dover West and 1 from NTU. Clearly, NTU was the underdog as the other teams were composed of 6-8 students, with full support of lecturers and staff and at least a year of preparation. Clearly, NTU lost.but hey, was a good experience and added intangible value to my resume. yeah!

Hopia, Mani, Popcorn and Kami nAPO Muna

don't like oldies OPM 'coz their "baduy". only like OPM made and performed by bands. oldies OPM performed by bands.. LOVIN' IT SO VERY MUCH. just got the albums The Best of Manila Sound, HOPIA, MANI, POPCORN and Kami nAPO Muna: Tribute to APO Hiking Society. favorites from the Hopia, Mani, Popcorn are Ipagpatawad mo by Mayonnaise, Kahit Maputi na ang Buhok ko by Soapdish, No Touch by Rocksteddy, Handog by Join the Club and Bitin Sa'yo by Up Dharma Down (really like the band's name, sounds cool, funky and totally senseless haha). favorites from Kami nAPO Muna are Nakapagtataka by Sponge Cola, Panalangin by Moonstar88 and Awit ng Barkada by Itchyworms.

Sana Maulit Muli

Never watched telenovelas, not even the one with heart evangelista. but due to some unknown force of nature, began watching Sana Maulit Muli. True, have a big crush on Kim Chiu 'coz of her supercute, kind and gentle face. Also liked her down to earth personality from watching a few episodes of Pinoy Big Brother Teen edition. But these reasons are usually not enough for me to watch telenovelas. Maybe I'm just that bored to even start watching telenovelas..tsktsk.

meltdown

I've been in this type of situations and somehow I always get thru it. But I have a strong feeling that it will be very different this time around. I guess the results a few months ago was kind of a sneak preview of what may(and most probably will) happen this time. I.am.so.doomed....

besfren

ngyng mga nakaraang araw ay nailagay ako sa mga sitwasyon n mejo nakakailang at para bang ung mga taong nasa paligid ko ay hindi man lang iniisip ang mga nararamdaman ko tungkol sa mga ginagawa nila. ewan ko ba, siguro akala nila na ok lang sa akin ang nangyayari dahil s tumatawa at nakikisabay ako s mga biruan nila. nalagay na rin ako sa ganun sitwasyon at sa mga pagkakataon na yun, 2 tao pa lang ang nakapansin na ako ay naiilang s mga sitwasyon n yun kahit n ako ay nakikisakay s mga nangyayari. sa tingin ko nga isa lang talaga e kasi ung isa e palagi naman iniisip n may problema ang ibang tao kahit wala naman talaga. sa mga pagkakataon n yun, naisip ko na sana andito ang bestfriend ko kasi hindi lang nya ako kukumustahin pagkatapos mangyari ang nakakailang na sitwasyon na yun, mumurahin pa nya yung mga tao na nagpasimula ng sitwasyon na yun. ganun ka-astig ung bestfren ko kasi alam nya kng kelan sha may mumurahin, may titingnan ng masama at makikipagsuntukan pa para sa akin kasi pareho tlga kami mgisip at mgreact s mga pangyayari. Hindi ko naman sinasabi na tamang gawin yun, shempre pipigilan ko sha kng gagawin nya ang mga yun pero ang mahalaga sa akin ay may balak shang ipamukha nang diretsahan sa ibang tao na nakakagago ang ginagawa nila. Kasi bilang isang katoliko, masama nmn talaga ang murahin ang isang tao, kahit ano pang ginawa nya. Para sa akin ay sapat n ang maisip man lamang ng besfren ko n gagawin nya yun kasi shempre ayoko rin naman magalit ang iba sa kanya dahil s pgmumura nya sa kanila. Basta, pagdating tlga sa ganung paksa, wala akong pakialam kng magkakaibigan pa tayong lahat. Kung tungkol dun ang paguusapan, ako ay selfish at matampuhin. Kung kailangan, gusto kong murahin o batukan nyo ang isa din kaibigan. Pero un nga, pipigilan ko pa rin kayo so wag kayong mgalala, basta pakita nyo lang sa akin n kayo ay handing gawin yun ;)

you're beautiful

You're Beautiful
James Blunt

My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
F**king high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.
