Everything Earthy

Hello, wonderful world.

2010-07-02T10:26:00.002+08:00

Hallo!

So, I haven't updated this lately. すみません!

I've had this blog since I was a freshman in high school, so it's 5 years old :)
Technically, this blog is still alive, but I've sort of abandoned it already.

Just go to my LJ and there you'll be updated (but mostly you'll find JE stuff there, so if you don't like it, I'm really sorry about that). :) Yes, I'm still talking about my everyday life in that blog :)

So, see you on LJ! :)

Your friend,
Meggie

Ano... Kore wa nan desu ka?

I looked at the last blog entry. It was in Spanish, written by me about 4 months ago. I read it and, whoa, I can't understand a thing O_O

I guess it's because I think my brain is now wired for Japanese. :o

Sometimes I talk to myself... in Japanese. Which is really weird because I'm not even fluent. I tried a little Korean waaaay back but it didn't work so when I'm done with Japanese I'll go with Chinese and then Korean :))

Funny... Do I really want to learn all of these?

Little Update

2010-01-08T20:54:00.001+08:00

My Spanish grammar is still a bit whack, but practicing will make it better, ¿verdad?

Mi madre dijó, me he convertido responsable estas semanas anteriores. Mires, estoy con mi hermano en las mañanas y noches. Sí, estoy contenta con este. :))

Hmmm... ¿qué más? Estoy ocupado en la actualidad. Pero siempre, tengo hora para mi amor Ferb Fletcher. Yo no sé por qué sin embargo.
Quizás, me encanta el voz de Ferb. ¿Has oído? Yo no sé cómo describirlo. Demasiado bueno para las palabras.

Err. I can only write two paragraphs? How lame... Lo siento, ¿vale?

His Image in Your Countenance by Janice Kapp Perry

2009-10-17T21:21:00.000+08:00

Posting song lyrics again... This time one of my favorite Church songs. :D

With no apparent beauty that man should Him desire
He was the promised savior to purify with fire
The world despised His plainness
But those who followed Him found love and light and purity
A beauty from within

Have you received His image in your countenance?
Does the light of Christ shine in your eyes?
Will He know you when He comes again because you will be like Him?
When He sees you will the Father know His child?

We seek for light and learning as followers of Christ
That all may see His goodness reflected in our lives
When we receive His fullness and lose desire for sin
We radiate His perfect love
A beauty from within

Have you received His image in your countenance?
Does the light of Christ shine in your eyes?
Will He know you when He comes again because you will be like Him?
When He sees you will the Father know His child?

The ways of man may tempt us
And some will be deceived
Preferring worldly beauty, forgetting truth received
But whisperings of the Spirit remind us once again
That lasting beauty, pure and clear
Must come from deep within

Have you received His image in your countenance?
Does the light of Christ shine in your eyes?
Will He know you when He comes again because you will be like Him?
When He sees you will the Father know His child?
By His everlasting image in your eyes.

So beautiful.

Sarange Michyeoseo by Jisun

2009-10-17T18:52:00.000+08:00

Okay... My head is in the clouds. My mind is both full and empty at the same time. I sit poised at the computer... supposedly finishing my final paper for Eng 1. And yet no thoughts are playing on the stage of my seventeen-year-old mind.

My face is just as blank.

But I suppose I just want to share the lyrics of "Sarange Michyeoseo (Crazy in Love)" by Jisun.

Utgo sipeoseo, geunyang haneun marinde
Geudaen wae ireohge, nae mameur molla, jeongmal
Dajim haetneunde dasi sarange michyeoseo
Jidokhage nae maeumeur jwigo heundeuna bwayo
Geudae tteonan geu jari eseoseo, naneun ajig geudaeman bojyo
Neomu apeunde, eonje jjeum urin seoronami doelkka?

Gaseumi meomchujir anha, ibyeoreur malhagodo
Handongan sarang haetjanha, ajikkkaji geureondeuthande?
Apeumi gasijir anha, dasi myeoc beoneur chamabwado
Neo eoptneun haru haruga, neomu himideureo naege neoppuninde...

Mianhadan mar, jalgaran geu mal
Geudaen wae ireohge nae mameur apeugehanayo?
Dajim haetneunde dasi sarange michyeoseo
Jidokhage nae maeumeur jwigoheundeuna bwayo?
Geudae tteonan geu jari eseoseo, naneun ajig geudaeman bojyo
Neomu apeunde, eonje jjeum urin seoronami doelkka?

Gaseumi meomchujir anha, ibyeoreur malhagodo
Handongan sarang haetjanha, ajik kkaji geureondeuthande?
Apeumi gasijir anha, dasim yeocbeoneurchamabwado
Neo eoptneun haru haruga, neomu himideureo naege neoppuninde

Ama geudaen, ama geudaeneun mollayo,

Tto hanbeon neoreur segyeodo ; nae maeumi neomu baraeseo

Apeumi gasijir anha, dasi myeoc beoneur chamabwado
Neo eoptneun haru haruga, neomu himideureo naege neoppuninde...

English Translation:

I just said it because I wanted to laugh
But why can't you understand how I feel
I vowed, but I am crazy in love again
It's so cruelly gripping my heart and shaking me

As I stand at the place where you left
I still only look at you
It hurts so, when will we
become strangers...

My heart doesn't stop
Even if we say goodbye, we still loved each other for a while
It still seems like that now
The pain doesn't wash away
No matter how many times I endure it
It's so hard to live day by day without you
you're my life...

Words like I'm sorry and goodbye
Why does it hurt my heart so
I vowed, but I am crazy in love again
It's so cruelly gripping my heart and shaking me

As I stand at the place where you left
I still only look at you
It hurts so, when will we
become strangers...

My heart doesn't stop
Even if we say goodbye, we still loved each other for a while
It still seems like that now
The pain doesn't wash away
No matter how many times I endure it
It's so hard to live day by day without you
you're my life...

Maybe you, maybe you don't know
the word "we" is slowly disappearing by your side
Even if I promise again, my heart is so worn out
That the word I love you
Is starting to fade away

The pain doesn't wash away
No matter how many times I endure it
It's so hard to live day by day without you
you're my life... My only one...

Very very... michyeoseo indeed.

Gotta murder that final paper... and then off to the greener fields of freedom. :D

Pick one. :D

You wake up one morning to see that you are in your best friend`s body. You were shocked and ran to the kitchen.

mom: morning honey !
you: Uhh... morning, Mom?
mom: so, how was the party last night ?
you: What party?
mom: YOU KNOW ! The party at your best friend`s house !
you: Ohhh.... yeah, THAT party! (my best friend used me as an alibi!)
mom: Did you have a good time ?
you: Yes, sure.
mom: oh, why ?
you: Just did.
mom: alright. Hurry to school now ! You`re going to be late !

You hurried to school and when you arrived, YOU SEE YOUR BEST FRIEND IN YOUR BODY !

best friend: WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED ?
you: I don't know...
best friend: WHAT DO YOU MEAN ?
you: I have no idea WHY and HOW this happened!!!
best friend: same with me ! I just woke up this morning and I was in YOUR room.
you: Yeah, your room was so messy.
best friend: no offense, but your mom is creepy :|
you: Your mom asks too many questions. :|
best friend: whatever. I know that. Let`s get to class.

You went to class. Your teacher gave a pop quiz. You scored an A+ but your best friend scored you a B-. You got upset and talked to your best friend after the bell rang.

best friend: woahh. what happened to you ?
you: What do you mean, what happened to me?! That quiz was so easy and you gave me a B-?!?
best friend: sorry. I didn`t know that your grades mattered too much.
you: Come on, you're smarter than I am. XD
best friend: alright ! alright ! I`m sorry !
you: I'm sorry too. Score me an A++++ next time. :))

The day passed and you went to your best friend`s house [your real house]

real mom: Hi there, Lora !
you: Hello Mo--
real mom: Meggie is upstairs.
you: *I'm down here.*

You slept over. You woke up and saw that you are in your real body again.

Thanks to Survey Monster. CLICKERR !

A Real Entry. :D

2009-09-04T10:57:00.000+08:00

Oh yes. Haven't written something like that in a long, long time. :D

So what's up with me? Yeah, you won't really know much by reading the surveys I answer.

Today is September 4th. In exactly one week, I'm turning SEVENTEEN (oh why do I still feel so old?!?). Weird. This year I kind of think that the excitement is less; something is not in place. Maybe something is missing. :(

So... I have been a college student for about three months now. There are really a lot of new things... (maybe change is the right word). Good ones, maybe?!

Hmmm. What good changes? Maybe the social connections. I see how small the world is. :))

What? Oh, yeah. I had my hair done. :))

But then, something is bad, though. Ayan, kain ng kain. Kaya tumaba lalo. :))

Urghhhh. There are just so many things popping in my head that I cannot sort them or arrange them into chronological order.

Maybe, just comment and post questions you'd like to ask me and I'll answer in my next post.

Love y'all.

- Meggie

Tsk. Unaffected pa rin ang classes ko bukas... Kasi pag Monday wala talaga akong pasok.

It's bad enough that the SONA would be held on a Monday. What's worse is that tomorrow is the buddy bidding for our org. And I can't come because my school's location.. Dadagsain ng mga tibak yung daan papunta at pauwi. Well, I don't really have to worry about it, but I'd like to see how it's done and who my buddy will be. Plus, for sure another akwe meeting would be held. Wala pa akong alam sa presentation namin. (>_<)

The worst part, I think, is that tomorrow my sibs would be at home so we'll probably squabble on who'll get dibs on the computer. It's quite annoying.. And kind of funny. :))

This is a paragraph I read in one of my Eng 1 reference books. I just found it kind of cute. :))

Actually, all girls are just about the same no matter what guise they are in. For instance, there are the smart alecks, the dumb beauties, the tomboys, the femme fatales, and there are the loners. But sooner or later, one is going to become special. Although you will still like the others and enjoy talking to them or teasing them, your attention will become focused on her. And then you will gradually start noticing things -- like the graceful way she walks, her pleasant voice, the funny way she laughs and most of all, her warmth and friendliness. She's your ideal girl. Not only is she beautiful; she is also intelligent and witty. From that day on, there is no other girl for you. <3

Freshman. Freshie. Frosh. First year. First sem, 2009-2010.

Yehey!!! I really enjoy my time at school.

Oh, the joy of studying. Never in my life have I wanted to be absorbed in lessons, lectures, readings, and books... It's like I've started all over again.

Super saya kasi there are a lot of things that we could do... eat ice cream sold along the AsKal (a.k.a. Freshie Walk), read in the library, agonize over our Kas1 readings, make fun of one another (XD!!!!), talk about life, listen to corny U.P.-related jokes, spend at least ten minutes deciding whether to have lunch at Casaa or Katag.

Funny, everything feels so new, yet so old. XD

I'm extremely shy, the only other group of people I really talk to, aside from my blockmates, are those from my English class. I hate my "loner period," which is from 1pm to 2pm. (Next time, I'll take up Aikido with my blockmate or something. XD)

On Monday, I'll be attending the 2009 U.P. Pep Rally. I heard that it's fun. :D Oh, and next week is Freshie Week. Yay. :D

The only drawback is... allowance... :(

It seems like it always disappears quickly. Siempre desaparece r�pidamente. Hmmmph.

I would figure something out. :D

Bye for now.

Sudden Demotion.

2009-06-22T18:09:00.000+08:00

My first week is not so bad after all.

I have friends, though there are only three people who I can solidly hang out with, that would do for me. :D

Well, let's see. There are only seven (!) people in my block, the Language block of BA English Studies. The other block is Literature. There are 15 slots per block, and since there are about 25 students taking up BA English, we can assume that the Lit block is full. (Really, I wonder why they picked that sched; they have Eng 10, Molecular Bio and Math2. We have Eng1, Bio1 and Math1. Plus. Ang daming bungi ng sked nila, not so good.)

Anyway, if you think that seven is too few for a class, well, I do too. Haha. In every class we have classmates from other years and courses, with varying quantities (like around 90 in Bio1, 60 in Math1, 25 in Eng1).

That makes it hard to be close with my other blockmates. So you know that I go with three of them. What about the other three? One is a girl who's quiet and doesn't really talk to anyone, so I guess she's a sort of loner. Another is a girl with friends from other courses (okay, so she prefers to be with them instead). The last, I do not know. XD

What is odd about being a freshie in college is the.. sudden demotion, I guess. My blockmate Kevin and I were talking about how we were so.. Maangas at makapal ang mukha nung 4th year high school, and then biglang kids who travel in flocks and packs with unsure looks on their faces. Oh di ba?

Second week starts tomorrow. XD

First Day. :D

2009-06-16T12:13:00.000+08:00

Hooray! I survived my first day of school.

Not a really cosmic experience, I must say. It was quite a stressful, surreal blur.

First, I miss my very first class (NOT my fault!!!). Excellent start, isn't it? Talk about annoying announcements. Boo!

Fortunately, I was able to ask a blockmate about the Math class. We've got homework. (I've just finished it, by the way.)

My second subject for the day (Kasaysayan 1) was b-o-r-i-n-g. Sure, the prof wasn't present, but since I was still this little lonely floater, sitting in for the first thirty minutes seemed like a long, long time. Then, our other classmates (not just my blockmates, mind you!) agreed that we should just leave.

So it left me with two hours to wander around the rainy campus. I felt so alone, though there are a lot of familiar faces on campus. (Well, I really didn't like seeing some of them. Fortunately, those people didn't see me. Whew.)

There are a few interesting stuff, though. Well... I was able to identify freshmen. (Being alone made me observe harder, I guess.) And, I really did see the whole "diversity" thing. Hmm. It is really quite new for me, this level of freedom. People smoke on campus (urgh!!!) and I really don't like seeing girls dressed immodestly (I simply cannot avoid it).

Oh well... things might get better soon.

The Last Week.

2009-06-02T11:54:00.000+08:00

Summer vay-cay for Meggie is about to end.

I would have screamed "NOOOOOO!!!" for the past few years. But for some reason, I'm actually glad to say goodbye to summer.

The fact that I'm going off to college is a pure coincidence. Yep, it's not the very reason why I'm happy to go to school. True, I didn't really enjoy high school and I had itched to get away from it, but other circumstances caused me to feel different about back-to-school things this year.

I'm not exactly bored... Super busy nga dito sa bahay eh. I like housework. Just... tiring and hard.

Going to school might lessen the housework load for me.

But then... upon coming home, I guess I'll be greeted by housework... Hmmm. So maybe I'll have to do schoolwork during those one-and-a-half-hour breaks.

But really. I am sure that things will get better. I've got nothing else to do but, put on a positive attitude.

Art Class

2009-05-15T15:53:00.000+08:00

It's time I tell you about my art class.

I attend Mr. F.B. Sena's Easy Art Lessons. The guy's really great. He's been teaching kids to draw since around the 1970's, I think. He's the "Father of Philippine Art Workshops". He's really amazing; a legend.

My class started in Summer 2007. I used to go to Q.C. every Thursday morning (mainit talaga dun sa nilalakaran ko sa Quezon Ave.) for this. Well... it paid off eventually; by the end of the Beginner course I got a grade of 98, which earned me a trophy (my first ever trophy... to think that it was for artistic recognition...), and two medals for Best in Card Making and Best in Homework.

I took the Advanced 1 class in June that same year. (It was in another venue, and on Saturdays this time.) There Mama got ideas if ever I would hold my own art exhibit (whoa!)... I didn't really get to formally finish the Advanced 1 course, though. I missed the last few lessons.

And then, Meggie was inactive for year 2008. I could have finished the Advanced 2 class (which I am taking up now) last year, but what I did last summer is hang up the laundry everyday (well, except Sunday). That's the only productive thing I've done then.

Now my classes are on Fridays, at the Powerbooks SM Megamall branch. (Yes, hindi na malayo. ) My brother is taking up the Beginner cpurse.

Thing is, I'm the only Advanced 2 student in our class, so it's a kind of... er, embarrassing sometimes. Advanced 2 focuses on painting on canvas (using oil or acrylic). So people stand around and watch me paint. Some even take pictures of my paintings. Um, nakahihiya na ewan.

Today I started working on a landscape painting (I just finished a still life last session). Ta-dah.

It just shows how messy my work station is. (I suppose real artists are like this, though. Haha.)

And it's still kind of ugly...

I'll work on it this week.

See you soon.

-Meggie

Trapped

2009-05-12T14:19:00.000+08:00

Trepidation.

It's like you're walking along a dark passage, in which you have no idea what is at the end. You're alone and you feel a cold numbness creeping into your veins. You suddenly get the feeling that someone is following you, so you turn around to check. You don't see anyone and yet... You think that someone is closing in on you. You urge your legs to run as your heart pounds against your ribs. You arrive at a dead end, and no one is coming to your rescue, leaving you completely helpless...

Uh, okay... I guess that was kind of exaggerated? Haha.

Seriously now... You know that someone is watching... You want to tell others, but you just can't find a way to warn them...

Nothing weird is happening, but you fear that there might be...

The Mini World

2009-05-06T17:23:00.000+08:00

I step into the real world.

Say what? I'm fresh out of secondary school and then suddenly I'm out?

The transition from high school to college is... A drastic change.

From a one-building school (it was even smaller than my grade school) to an eye-poppingly and jaw-droppingly huge, wander-off-and-you'll-get-lost university. The fact that freshies' scheds require us to get to one building to another emphasizes that very description.

Everything else is just as... Big...

*Day of Enrollment*

My adviser says, "Okay, so you have to go to the Department of European Languages to enlist for your foreign language subject."

So Meggie skips off to the Dept. of European Languages (which is on the same floor of that building). She finds this note tacked on the door:

"Please use the other door ->"

Naturally, she goes to the door pointed by that sign. However, there is also a note saying,

"Please read before you peek
<-"

There is a piece of paper taped to the wall saying that freshies' enlistment is on the second floor in the AVR.

Meggie climbs to the second floor and walks to the AVR (which is in another wing of the building). The BA European Languages students are waiting in line outside the AVR door. Meg just falls in line. The loooong queue seems to move for an eternity...

When Meggie is FINALLY ushered in the AVR, the RA says that I should go to the OUR, which is in yet another building.

***

Can't really say that the rest of the enrollment went smoothly. I was only able to pay for my tuition today...

A lot of people told us that we get to meet all kinds of people at UP Diliman. Well. Diversity of species.

What can I say? It's like a republic or something. Yeah, a UP student once told me that it's a mini-Pilipinas. :D

Getting ready for the real world.

-Meggie. <3

Ouch. :(

2009-05-04T15:57:00.000+08:00

Misfortunes.

Yesterday when we came home, I was the last to enter the house, so naturally I was the one who had to bolt the gate. We passed through the gate which we usually do not use.

Unfortunately for me, the bolt had to be forcefully pulled for it to budge. So I did and then--WHAM--the skin of my left forefinger got wedged in it. Ta-dah. Bluish purplish skin. :((

And then this afternoon I tried tuning my guitar (it's more than three years old, yet it still smells as if it was newly varnished). And of course, poor Meggie does not really know to do it... So she has to look for instructions on the Internet.

Could have gone well. But... Hayhay. My poor fingers hurt from plucking and holding those strings. And worse, they don't sound like they should. :(

And there's this thing with my enrollment. :(

Hopefully, things get better tomorrow..

-Meggie.

Experience. :D

2009-05-02T20:09:00.000+08:00

Yeah, I thought it wasn't going to be bad.

I liked this year's youth conference. Though of course there are some drawbacks, I was pretty much okay. :D

I loved my groupmates... (They appointed me team leader.... bah.) Never really thought we'd place first in the Pathways to Success activity and that pack of Hershey's candy bars. The girls were pretty good roommates, too. :D

Yeah, I sang solo in front of a live audience (the only intermission number, gasp!)... haha. They said, maganda naman raw, but for me it didn't come out the way I imagined. Wahaha. Weird.

This year's dance social is also good. Well, I think it's better than last year's... maybe just as good as my first dance social or even several notches better than that. :D Really, I had a great time. XD (Boy, it's sort of cute and weird that a girl would want to take off her stilettos because they kill her feet... in the presence of many people. Maybe you would feel embarrassed, but hello, conventional world... I didn't really care... :D)

Sleeping was kind of difficult on the first night (nakatulog ako 12 AM tapos gumising kami ng 2:30 AM para makaligo). Funny how quickly we all fell asleep on the second night... Mga 5 AM na kami nagising... We were pretty tired from the night before. :))

I gained a few friends (halos kilala ko na kasi lahat dun ee)... Love 'em. :D

Well, it's another patch to sew on my quilt of memories. :D

Love from,

Meggie

Something New

2009-04-29T18:42:00.000+08:00

I have to get up at five-ish tomorrow. It's 10:30 pm and I'm still awake writing this post.

This is my fifth youth conference and yet, I still get queasy at times like this...

I'm not really looking forward to it, actually. Yet I have this weird feeling... Maybe it's trepidation.

Youth conferences this year are different. Mm-hm. Who thought of this.. "New-ness"? (Hey, I know of one person who might be behind this. Haha.)

The thing is, I don't embrace changes easily. When something is new, it is kind of hard to trust it.

Well, who knows; I might change my mind about this.

I'll let you know on Saturday. :)

-Meggie :D

Almost There!

2009-03-06T05:48:00.003+08:00

Yay. We're almost done with all the fourth-year requirements. :D

Now I'll have to focus on my religious education, though. I find it extremely challenging... you know, balancing secular and religious stuff.

Hmmm... So I'm finally graduating from high school. Yay... :D I can't quite believe it myself. Hahahaha. :)

I'll prepare myself for the "nostalgic moments" attack. Hey, I don't remember having something like this when I graduated from grade school...

So, summer's almost here. :D I'm thinking of studying Japanese. Or go to a culinary class. Or maybe driving lessons...

I don't know if I'm ready for college yet... I don't think I know if someone from school (other than me) is taking up BA English. I can just picture myself on the first day of school: a loner in the corner of the classroom. :))

Weeeeeeeeee. :D

Sorry for the short post...

Love from,
Tsarina Helyon <3

The Luckiest Girl

2009-02-25T15:59:00.002+08:00

Hello again.

I feel like Shelly from Beverly Cleary’s book, “The Luckiest Girl.” :)

I am, indeed, a girl who could (rather, should!) thank Kami-sama for such a blessing… :)

To think that… I have something that the others don’t have. :D

What more could I ask for? :)

It’s something I think I have desired for a little more than 2 years… I never really thought it would really be acquired by someone like me: a stupid, and not-so-pretty monkey girl (well, I am a Monkey).

And then, the others also desired it, but maybe not as long as I did… but still, I was the… lucky one.

It’s kind of odd how truly wonderful the whole thing looks. :)

And so, I am really the luckiest girl. :D

Love from,
The Russian Empress… who also happens to be the luckiest girl at the moment. :D

P.S. I know you don't get WHAT I got. Well... it's actually a WHO. *wink*

Happy Hearts Day

2009-02-14T20:12:00.002+08:00

Weeeee...

It's Hearts Day. :D How happy I am... :D

Really, for many many years... I only think of this day as a time to entertain myself with my creativity... like make cards for family and friends... and write poems. :D

Very satisfying. actually... :D

Only now, though... It feels totally different... :D

Haha... though of course, I admit, it's a wonderful feeling... but... I don't know. Why, oh why do we have to celebrate this thing?! *snickers*

But hey, do I really want to go back to my world when I was still writing sickeningly sweet love poems that nobody would read? Hahaha... :D

Hey, I actually wrote this 9-stanza poem way back in second year high school. In FILIPINO!!! Haha, it was a project, by the way, so... it's fine. My Mom liked it. Hm... I feel kind of different when I associate "l-o-v-e" with my Mom... not familial love, I mean...

And also in that same year I wrote an English love poem with two stanzas. Well... what do you know, it's kind of like my forte or something...

Silly, though... How cliché those V-Day things are... but... I don't know... why I still like it. :D

Haha!!! Enough, I guess.

Hope you've had a wonderful time.... :D

Love from,
Tsarina Helyon

2008-12-17T09:17:00.002+08:00

Whoa!

I can't believe that tomorrow's our school Christmas party na...

Grabe, that is soooo, sooo exciting....

Or not?

I still have a huge problem on my hands...
And that's... money!!!

Well, yeah, I do believe that Christmas is the season of loving and giving and stuff... and that it does not necessarily mean that people should spend...

But ah... the world is too conventional; most people won't really appreciate these stuff that I could give (I could just make paintings and stuff).

Sooo vain and materialistic... Is that it? Maybe not!!!

Whatever you say, I am very problematic, you know...

A girl can only have so many friends!!!

Hahahahaha... :)

Now that's extremely silly. Or stupid. Or both!!!

Who knows? It's enough that we think about our Savior Jesus Christ... and be grateful for everything that He gives us.

That settles it...!!! :)

A happy Christmas from,
An equally jovial Tsarina Helyon

Green with Envy (And Not Because of Grass)

2008-12-03T22:11:00.003+08:00

Hello!

Here I am again. :)

But ah... not so good.

Well, I am in a really odd situation.

I am friends with LeAnne (name has been changed). We're really close, yeah... very much so.

The thing is... LeAnne is my polar opposite.

Sooo.... what about it? Some people would say that it was an excellent friendship match; we complement each other, see. But? I truly feel... a little envious of her...

Maybe because the things and qualities which she possesses were stuff I'm deprived of. Hahaha...

I don't know why I feel this way... I mean, I should let her be, if I'm really a good friend, right?

Bombard me with your thoughts...!

Tsarina Helyon

Cobwebsite

2008-11-30T20:23:00.002+08:00

After like, more than two years, napalitan ko na yung blog skin ko.

Yes!!!

And after mga 3 months may post na naman ako.... Hooray!!!

So, this has been a "cobwebsite." You know, website that has not been updated for a looooooong time.

Anyway, what's new with me?

Well, I turned sixteen last 11th of September...
Yeah, I'm used to being called a Laurel now.. :)

Ahm, I have been really busy, you know...

On December 12th, we have this so called Christmas concert (fund-raising for our graduation thingies). We've been practicing a lot. Tiring, because it clashes with some of my other commitments (grrrr!!!).

Hay hay hay!!! You know, the other section (4-D) is sosyalin... Grabe kung saan saan pa sila magpe-perform... for the Mayor, etc. Bonggang-bongga talaga.

What bugs me is that, they might win this thing. Well, actually it's no biggie, but ah... I still have competitive spirit... Hahaha...

And, that night would also be the FINAL night of Survivor Philippines (NOOOOOOOO!!!!). As in, duh. Hindi ako makakapanood?!? I want to see kung paano yung ending, kung nagrereflect sa American format (I already know who the winner is).

What else? Oh, my Samsung phone... I already miss it so much!!! Nasira siya nung sem break pa (sooo sad!) and walang time to have it repaired (tsk tsk tsk).

So tomorrow, holiday (celebration ng Bonifacio Day, which is actually today... oh wait, you KNOW that!)... walang classes, but then!!! I have a lot to do (hrrrnghh, I want to get some REST!!).

Hope everything will pay off...

Tsarina Helyon (hey, why am I signing this with a FAKE name?! I have a real name naman, but you know.... ang arte ko eh.)

P.S. Take care always!!! Ü

Burning Eyes

2008-08-19T17:04:00.002+08:00

My headache's gone. Whew.

But my eyes are still watering, accompanied by a burning sensation. Tssss!!!

...
First set of periodical exams: tapos na. Yay.

But... I'm scared. Of. The. Other. Exams...

YAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!

I wish this is over...

...
...
...
...

23 days left. What?
23 days before my birthday. Hooray!!

Hey, you know, I really want a fountain pen. But unfortunately... no one will give me that, haha... Well it costs Php1000.00.

I really want it badly. But well, who knows, I might lose it anyway. Nyahaha!!! (You know I am stupid.)

Total banana-head!!! Wheeeeeee!!!

But how do I manage to survive? I have witch friends. :)

Hey, how could a stupid girl manage to become Tsarina? Well, I'm not sure of the answer to that, but maybe it's because she rules an idiotic empire!!!

Bwahahahaha. That's the answer!

...
I hope someone brings home some Eye-Mo or something.

Thirty-Nine Point One

2008-08-11T14:00:00.002+08:00

AUGUST 11th, 2008

Okay, yesterday I took the USTET. It was actually very easy. :D

Kinda hard to believe, but the most difficult part was English. And that comes from a person who loves the subject.

Hmmm, Math was quite easy. I did not guess a single item. For the first time. Hahaha! Science was easy, too. :D

Hey, wondering why I write at this hour? I'm sick... stayed at home today.

Gosh, this is not really good. Today we're supposed to have our Eco chapter test and submission of the project (and the notebook). *gloom*

Sigh... I don't like having to worry about this...

* * * * *

Hmmm... yesterday my temperature was 39.1˚C. Now it's 38.2˚C. Hrgngh... not really good, but better, at least.

Whew... My feet are hot. And my eyes are watering in pain... :(

Worst of all, my throat feels scratchy. :(

Sigh. Hopefully everything will be well tomorrow.

Fast-Paced Life

2008-08-09T09:28:00.002+08:00

Whoooa...

Being a senior in high school is so hard...

At last, the UPCAT is over...

But the harder tests are yet to come..

Hmm, tomorrow I'll take the USTET.. A lot of people say that I will definitely pass, but I'm not sure about that *Laughs*.

Well, after USTET, there's still the ACET, and then my TOEFL and Michigan Tests. (I'm applying for this scholarship... for BYUH.)

Whoa... the life of a senior... is something I find challenging. But cool.

What else? Let's see...

My best friend's birthday is coming up. But then, I still don't know what to get her. I'm kinda broke, so it's a problem (Haha...). Plus, I'm the girl-who-makes-gifts-instead-of-buying type (which could've solved the problem), but I don't know what she'll think of it, hahaha...

Anyway, speaking of this best friend... well, she hangs with this girl more often than not lately... but I'm actually fine with it... I have other friends, of course. But then I know she won't trade me for anyone else (2 years of bestfriendship is enough to make a powerful bond).

...

Argh. I am a little stressed out. XD

Love,
Tsarina

Counting the Days

2008-07-31T21:11:00.003+08:00

JULY 31st, 2008

Oh my. Now we've got something serious to think about.

Hmmm... here come the entrance exams (UPCAT on Sunday), project deadlines (*shivers!*), periodical exams (*faints*)...

Hrngh... it just makes you want to fall asleep, right? Well, sleep's for the wishful...

Sigh... I'm already beat.

Hey, the CAT orientation was rescheduled for tomorrow, but then, because of the upcoming UPCAT we would have to postpone (again).

Oh, the joy of writing... but then, I think I'm sort of regretting my choice for elective. I should've chosen Developmental Reading instead... maybe I would have excelled in that subject. Or maybe Speech and Drama. Haha.

Oh, whatever. I already lost the opportunity to "shine" in class. Boo.

Yeah, well, stupid is synonymous to:
-foolish
-asinine
-mulish
-jerk
-bonehead
-Helyon!!!

Everything I am!!

How's that, eh?

(Degrading myself again. But honestly, I can't think of any reason to hold myself in high regard, you know.)

Hay naku!!! Puro wrong grammar. Tama na nga yang kaka-English mo ha, ang chaka eh.

Mondays

JULY 28th, 2008

I don't like Mondays... usually.

Monday is the only day of the week when I get up earlier than usual (I have to be at school at 6 am for the morning form)... I don't like the flag ceremonies sometimes (pag walang program, hahaha!!!)...

Monday means the start of a new week of quizzes, long tests, blah blah. *Horrors!!!*

I dread seeing those whatever-major-loser people again (uh, who?!?)...

Agh, well...

Maybe the only good thing about Monday is...

...seeing *toot!* again...

Haha! And who is this *toot!*?

...Oh, that? That's the sub for "MY BEST FRIENDS!!!"

Well, I like seeing my friends again, of course.

Well, don't you?!!

Hahaha... well, Monday nights are good! I spend it with my family, where we read the scriptures, pray and eat good ice cream together (sometimes we go out and watch a movie)...

I just love-love-love these times...

Sigh... I'm like in heaven, haha.

Hey, I talked about hating Mondays and now loving them?!

Weird.. ahaha...

Well, sometimes, that's just the way human emotions work, right?

P.S. Maybe we could write about something more interesting than this next time. Sorry for boring you, darling...

JULY 26th, 2008

So tired...

Whoo. Todo practice kaming 4-Cruz kagabi. Haha... now we only have to worry about the costumes.

Hmmm... Isang general practice lang, medyo mahirap nga i-execute eh, medyo masikip din sa house ng classmate namin. Isa pa naman ako dun sa 10 girls na may solo parts... (Uh, meaning: walang partner na lalaki!!!) Haha... these single girls are like the "angels". Hahaha! I just want to think of it that way. (Angels in black.)

I liked teasing my classmates Sabrina and Chrissia; they have partners. Very amusing to see them dance with guys (*snicker*). I know they (or at least Sabrina) would like to dance solo (like me and Erika Ann).

Whoa. The UPCAT will take place next week. Hmm. My sched: August 3rd, 6:30 am at College of Engineering. Hmmm... does this mean we have to wake up at 3? Well, haha... I think that would be the only problem. I like to take an exam early in the morning... at least the mind is still refreshed (or still sleepy?! Haha...). Very advantageous, right? Cool.

Nyahaha... But really, I don't really want to think about college entrance exams now... I want to enjoy my last year in high school. But I don't want to think that it's my last year either.

Weird. This blog is just as old.

* * * * *

Anyway... hmmm... wala pa rin ung CAT orientation namin...

Excited na ako. Sobra...

Finally... I get to boss my crush around! Joke... well, the other one is an officer too, but ah... my position is higher than his.

Well, I want them to be disciplined, that's all. :)

As Medic Comm, I should be nice to them all... yes.

....

Uh... got nothing to say?

....

Huh? Oh, yeah. I'll turn sixteen on the eleventh day of September. Hope I finally receive the books that I want to read..

Yeah, as Tsarina, I don't have the time to watch movies or anything.. you know, when I travel to Yekaterinburg or Moscow.

(Grabe ang lakas mangarap, no?)

Bye na pala.

Love,

Tsarina Helyon

Aftermath (Joke!!!)

JULY 19th, 2008

Hey, I waited for the earthquake. Kidding!

Yeah, I know it was only a rumor started by a fraud. Hahahaha... why would he/she write about something like that? It's weird!!!

Seriously, I want to know why he/she said that...

But, thankfully, we're all safe. *sigh of relief*

I was actually planning to bring my CAT Medic Kit (oh yeah, that's what I am, the Medic Commander. Haha), in case of stuff like that. And I was giving out lectures of what to do when there's an earthquake, hahaha. Well, you should now see why the CAT plays a major role in earhquake drills (and how big my role is *shudder!*).

Hmmm, their lives depend on me? Well, uh, yeah, I can help, but... is this a delusion?!

Another lame joke (You: Is that even a joke? I didn't hear a cue).

* * * * *

Stuff at school?

Hmm, let's see. Well, this week, my best friend and I had a fight.

Well, actually, she was only kind of overpossessive (yeah, she was the one who said it). I had another friend who happened to get too close to me, that we were the ones who chatted nonstop about her crush. So my bestie got kind of mad, of course (her patience is a little short, I think).

But I apologized and we fixed it now.

But it seems that she got a little angry again yesterday... I hope not.

* * * * *

Review class again later..

This is my sixth Saturday, actually the eighth Saturday (for them). There are 17 in all. Seventeen...? Nine more to go.

Well, I like my class, really. The guys really joke a lot. And everyone laughs, even the teacher. And I answer a lot of questions that the teacher calls me a nerd. Well, it's not really what I want to hear, but it's okay.

But I'd like the review class to finish immediately because it really interferes with my sched (like when we need to finish this group thingy or if I need to shop for something).

Agggh...

I've got nothing to narrate now.

See you next time.

XOXO,

Tsarina Helyon

A Silent Saturday

2008-07-12T05:57:00.004+08:00

JULY 12th, 2008

Everyone in the house (except me) is still asleep. So I am taking the chance before the people hog the computer. Haha.

Well, when I got home last night I fell asleep almost immediately. And woke up just now.

Hmm..

A question that keeps swimming in my head. For a person who's got two parents all his life, what would he feel if he would be separated to one of them? In a long period of time? Or... permanently...?

*shudder*

*Sigh* Oh well. It's a sacrifice.

* * * *
How's school?

Hmm... I like it. Advanced Physics is, well, advanced. But I think I already like it.

The truth is, English is like, even sleepier than the "Jigglypuff" class. Well, the fact that this subject is from 1:30-2:30 makes you really sleepy. I kind of feel sorry for our teacher, who was our teacher last year. Her questions are really simple that you can answer it with your eyes closed. But little response can be heard from the class... From a few respondents (myself included).

Well. I like Ma'am Valmores, because she can be really nice, but I also wish that Ma'am Tirones is our teacher. *Sigh* My older sister said that not having the latter as your teacher is like losing half of your senior year...

Maybe it's a blessing in disguise. Haha.

* * * *

Today I'd rather stay at home but I still have my review classes. I'm learning to blend in with my classmates, but I still feel kinda left out (haha). Whatever, but they are all actually friendly. Hrgngh.... Oh well. I go there to learn.

Huh... it's a pity that you can't put comments in here (boo!).

But then again, my blog sucks. (Hahaha! It came from ME?!)

Bye.

JULY 9th, 2008

My 102nd post.

Okay... Stuff are getting swirled up in my mind. It seems that I am already in a kind of restricted situation.. Hmm, the stuff I mostly think about now is CAT (I'm sooo excited!), college entrance tests, our fourth year subjects. I can see that I almost never go to friends' houses, because of these.

Hmmm... (Hey, I just keep on saying "hmmm" as if I have nothing to say...) well, the downside of the whole CAT thing is these totally unsupportive, disrespectful people. But, I won't tell you about this any further; the idea makes my blood boil. Tsk.

Oh! I just remembered! I finished Yggdra Union on the first weekend of this school year. The ending... sucks. Well, no offense to Sting (the group of creators), Atlus (the publisher of the American version), and other groups who receive credit for the whole game (like Nintendo, maybe)... but ah, well, it was kind of, um, bitin.

Well, actually there are two endings: (warning! spoiler!)
First, in the goody-goody ending, you seal the Gran Centurio (Yggdra's Holy Sword that's like a family heirloom chuvaness. It is very big, like a flatlance) forever, and receive the Scepter of Wisdom from the Archangel Marietta. You'll rule with wisdom and not with war... blahblah... Fin.

The other choice is kinda evil. You battle Marietta instead (she's level 75, and the maximum level any of your characters can reach is 20. Can I just say unfair?). You can beat her, though it looks impossible at first because all of your characters lose in every round. Well, the thing is, when she beats you, her morale drops, and when it reaches 1, use the Crusade card on her and then, it's Ragnarok. (Yeah, you made yourself an enemy of the Gods...) Fin.

The second choice is more interesting, but I was not satisfied. Maybe it's because I was still wondering what actually happened to that weirdo Nessiah. Oh well, I can just create stories at fanfiction.net.

Haha. Now that I've finished the game, I would just focus on Advanced Chem or whatever.

Do svidanya.

P.S. I have sooo many aliases, namely:
-Helyon
-Yggdra (heh, where did I get that?)
-Tsarina (this is the equivalent of Empress in Russia before it got its Communist government.)
-Tsarevna (basically, Princess or Duchess, but to be more specific, this is the wife of the Tsarevich, the heir to the throne.)
-Namine (from KH)
-Yukino Sakahara (my self-created Japanese name. I picked Yukino becuase it matches with my "twin's", Yukiko.)
-The Green Queen (or La Reina de Verde or Le Reine de Vert.)
-Midori Kunoichi (Green ninja girl.)

And So, After Five Months

JULY 7th, 2008

Hooray!!! The Tsarina Helyon is back.

Hmmm, I left both blogs neglected (the other being Heaven and Earth, which I totally ignored... so I now disown. Haha), which is not a good thing, right?!?

I know I don't even have many readers, but who knows if are those people who really drop by to see if I'm still alive (*witch cackles*.)

I'm still the same old, nature lover girl who's always stuck with failures in life. Hmm, well, that is not just an issue, you know..

For my Pisay friends who are still there (and I pray you drop by this blog again), I might visit soon. I'll.. try.

What is new with my life?!

Where did I leave off? Oh, yeah, no stuff about COCC and stuff like that. Well, ta-dah! I am now a CAT officer (I'll just not mention what my position is).

I still love reading fan fiction, but I am now so occupied with school that I just make my own (on paper) for my classmates to read.

See my writing style? Nothing's changed, right?

Love,
Tsarina Helyon

FEBRUARY 9th, 2008

Hi, this is my 100th post!

Wow, I cannot believe how slow I've been. This blog is like, two and a half years old.

Well... it's not soooo happy.

Lately, I was so pissed.

Lucky girl, huh? I thought I was. Then I realized how unlucky I am!

You know... my partner in the JS Prom is waaay cute. And he is very nice, which is unusual... not all of the 4th year guys are like that.

But, I am so unlucky.

You see, other girls try to get a shot.

And one girl managed to do it.

It's totally fine with me, but she thinks I am stealing him from her.

Now that's where the problem comes in...

I won't be able to act normal around this guy anymore.

Because this girl is so... uhm, you know, but I can't say it.

I am afraid that war will break out.

See how doomed I am?!

Your distressed Tsarina...

On the Way!

2008-01-16T18:45:00.000+08:00

Yay! I am happy to announce that our 3rd perio exams are almost over(last day na bukas!).

Yes, we are on the way to total freedom!

Well, not really total. It's partial. Just one more quarter and we waltz off to summer break... Haha. (Come one, I know you feel the same way!)

Happy sigh... MUSIKWELA sa Saturday. I am so bubbly and happy inside. I'll just get my other projects done, then SNAP! I can go back to play Yggdra Union!!! AAAAHH!!!

Also... my new phone is comin'. Hooray. At last, I won't feel bad anymore. I mean... it will be easier for me... to contact everyone.

Whoosh. So let's see. Just AP and Anal Geom, then we're okay... and MAPEH, English and Statistics for the exam.

So, sorry but I have to cut it now.

Your Beloved Russian Empress,
Tsarina

Something's Changed.

2008-01-12T21:05:00.000+08:00

Hello again. Here I am again, writing another post for this blog of mine. Yes, I am.

Well, things are moving fast.

First, the stuff with the "hangover" thing. Then, we've had lots of chapter tests. Next, we'll take the periodical examinations.

Well, you know how hard it is to become a full-time student... you never get what you need. Maybe, it's only me.

Sigh... I wish I could experience relief soon. You know what comes with the results of the perio exams: projects and *shudder* report cards. *Gasp!*

So, there, I am worried and scared about these things.

I want to finish my new story, about a certain undine girl who meets a valkyrie. It should be fun. But then, I've got the third quarter lessons on my mind.

This is really frustrating...

BUT, WAIT!

I am lamenting over this thing, but the title is not right. Why?

Because, that's not the main idea.

Something has changed. And you know what? It's my view about life, love and reality.

I'm besotted with this person. But it feels so... different... in a good way... but I don't know why or how. Maybe the thing about this person is, I'm besotted for reasons different from the other things before.

Well, I am all alone here at home... and I need to do something else, so... I will end this now.

Owari.

Certain Discoveries

2008-01-06T14:54:00.000+08:00

JANUARY 6th, 2007

You know that I really do not put too much effort in writing entries for my blog. (Yes, nakabibitin, but, ah... it's my blog after all!)

Anyway, I am still sorry about those stupid and super-bleak posts. Like, hello, I'll be surprised if anyone understood the real messages underneath.

I will try to write longer; I have a good reason. (Hooray!) Now that I can write here at home, I will write longer passages to restore the appeal of reading this weblog.

I advise the neophytes not to read the succeeding posts in case of severe nosebleeding.

(Use the dictionary! Ahaha.)

So, I'll let loose for a while and tell you about me, and my disastrous Christmas break. (Whoa, no, the word is not disastrous. I think it's... um... let's find out later.)

Christmas 2007 and New Year 2008.

I know they're over. But I could just give you a peek at history. "History," kasi tapos na nga eh. What, were you expecting a lesson from me?

But wait, now that we are talking about it, I am afraid of the next Social Studies class. (Listen, listen! This part is getting juicier.)

You see, the student teacher (you know, those who do practice teaching) for this subject is a... (*drum roll*)... a member of our Church.
(You: Really, Meg?!? That is so, so... uh, really?!)

Well, he is, at least, a member. (He's inactive!!! Argh.) The thing is, we're nearing the world religion topic thingy. I am afraid that he would not defend our beliefs. Well, of course it's his duty to give us lessons of how the different religions started, and stuff like that, but if ever there would be a... an argument or something, I don't know what to expect!

That's it. So let's go back to my break.

It was so frustrating. My brother borrowed the Yggdra Union GBA cartridge from his friend, also from our Church. Yes, and I got addicted.

The thing is, I was already at the part where Princess Yggdra would be crowned Queen of Fantasinia and, well, the game did not save!!! (Battlefield 32 na yun ha!) And I could not stop playing it (December 31-January 1 'to nangyari) because we might start over. So Mom got mad at me and stuff. I turned it off in regret( bye bye, hard-earned level!) and when I turned it on, luckily it was back to Battlefield 26 (and not 1!), where I last saved successfully. (Akala ko kasi nawala nung sinave ko nung nag-fail.)

I'm stuck at Battlefield 28 (Galleon Prison) where they finally found the captured Princess Yggdra( kasi si Yggdra, nilabanan niya ung Emperor ng kalaban, si Gulcasa, nang mag-isa, nahuli tuloy ng Imperial Army). That was the last battlefield for Chapter 4, kaso di ako makaalis. Either may namamatay or na-stuck si Milanor sa isang corner, siya na lang hindi pa nakararating sa Target Point kasi hinarangan ni Gulcasa, hindi naman kasi ako makadaan. May Protect ung Morale niya tapos nag-rerecover pa. Ayos din yun eh.

Ayun. Eh hindi ako makalaro kasi, pasukan na, ang dami na naming tests and everything, so, ganun.

Kaya alam mo na kung bakit naiinis pa 'ko.

Bitin ang bakasyon. Sana matapos ko yung buong Yggdra Union bago pa namin ibalik. (hindi kami makahanap ng ganun sa tindahan eh, pero pag nakakuha na kami ng ganun bibili pa 'ko ng Link Cable para malipat yung game dun.)

Ayan. I finished the post, nag-Filipino naman ako. Haha.

Sorry again!

Bye na!

Tsarina

P.S. I am trying to create my own site. Just visit this site and try to help me out. It's sooooo empty!

P.P.S. Paggawa naman po ako ng bagong layout ng blog! (Kakasawa na eh.) Ung green ha! Thanks!

It Won't Go Away!!!

DECEMBER 19th, 2007

A lot of things are plaguing me lately.

Talk about Christmas-is-approaching. Blow it up.

I am still devastated. Why are they causing me too much pain?

Will I ever get over it? (I'm thinking of this vacation.)

Will I ever forget?!

Also, my past keeps haunting me. Occasional rendezvous with... people. They always scare me, though they do not know it.

How about an amnesiac? Or the spell... ("Obliviate!")

Say goodbye.

November 30th, 2007

Okay, I think I am still dizzy with the kaleidoscope of feelings last night...

Yesterday was my classmate's birthday. We went to their place. Good enough for me.
Well, what happened was only a coincidence...

What happened? Ahm... romantic stuff? No, but close enough.

Walking under the night sky. That was almost spectacular.

Yep. Ssssh.

Hello. I am composing another "useless" post. I'm just updating you on what's going on with the ~~dead~~ Tsarina Helyon. I am fine, and I am still alive. I currently listen to songs by McFly.

I am trying to be noticed by... um, certain people. Pero in a discreet way...

Wahahahahaha... That's cute, ain't it? :)

Hello Again

November 9th, 2007

Okay, hello again, people. I am not a very good updater, huh? I'm sorry about that. Ah, anyway.

Nothing exciting happens to me, at least not currently.

Oh bosh. This is yet to be another "stub" of entry. Sorry, folks. Well, that's life.

I am learning French and Russian. Funny, huh.

Yeah, it's weird that I even go for miles just for this.

Au revoir, do svidanya, goodbye for now.

Changes

2007-10-20T21:08:00.000+08:00

A lot of things happened just before sem. break started...

First, I receive an e-mail from a person whom I miss terribly. So, that is really cool for me. Made me really happy.

And so, that should have given me a serene feeling, right?

But then, the following day. Something happened that made me really sad.

Hah. Took me by surprise, sudden twist of emotion. That's what I got.

Okay, so what happened is, my friend learned what I really know. (It is not really good for him. So I said, it was a pity that he was kept from that piece of information.) You know, it shocked both of us. Luckily, I managed to talk to him like before. Because I was afraid that there would be a wall between us. Actually there was one starting to build up, so I tore it down.

But I think, things will never be the same anymore. I really have a strong feeling, but I sure hope that they will work things out.

But here I am! The person who mailed me still hasn't replied. But I will wait for the e-mail.... yes!

I am still in one piece.

BTW, listen to McFly songs, please. I love 'em, kaso di sila sikat dito sa Philippines. So I'm working on making them popular here. Listen to the song playing... Ganda ba? Soon you'll learn to love 'em.

Love,
Tsarina Helyon

It's Gonna Be a Bloodbath

SEPTEMBER 29th, 2007

Okay. Since when, when have I been like this, hmmm? Well, there is another problem occuring. A battle between head and heart, sadly. That is why I am wondering...

So lately, I also have caused another issue. Gloating up a storm, huh. Don't know what I am talking about, because I got out of control again. Ohh yes. Sorry for those who were mad at me, I was the one offended, I was the one who got hurt. Man, this is nasty. I hope things will be sorted out soon.

Really, I was not mad. I was just, hurt...

The whole story is a little difficult to tell. Medyo mababaw kasi kaso I'm very sensitive. You know that, right?

Give me some room, man.

Hellooo... I am back, baby. I cannot update much, this you know, because we do not have computers at home. Life is very busy, yep, it is.

This is only a short post becuase I am in a hurry. I have to go and meet my classmates.

Updates:

I am now fifteen. (Clap clap) I love my life, and being one-five isn't so bad. I am happy that I have gone past all the hardships and trials. I will also cherish the good memories.

Okay, today is Sept. 15, 2007.

Forgot to tell you, haha...

See you next time!!! I apologize again, super sorry.

Over?

2007-08-13T13:08:00.000+08:00

Awww... the periodical exams are over... (double darn it, please!) and so, wala na bang half-day?!? Yun lng ang gusto ko e.

I lack sleep... and it is very very hot outside. Andito ako sa internet cafe kasi, naiwan ko yung susi sa house, alang tao sa 'min. I could stay at the house the back, but then, I need to do something anyway...

So, why are we even bothering to read this extremely stupid entry? Why, because I am updating,letting you know at least about what's going on in my life, okay.

Haha. This are all really, nonsense. Hahaha...

I'm still fascinated about the Romanovs. (By the way, did you even know that I was.)
(You: No. Others: No.)

Okaaaaayyy... am I wasting my time here or what?! Lagpas 2 years na po 'tong blog ko eh wala pa nga ako sa 100 Posts!!!!

Okie... Sorry, really sorry I wasted your time(that is, if you read this entry).

Much love from,
Tsarina Helyon

BoyOhBoyOhBoy

2007-08-07T14:44:00.001+08:00

Okaaayyy. This nonsense has got to stop now. What am I talking about? Well...

My time is always running. Why can't it slow down for a change?!? This is, so, so super-dee-duper stupid. Always killin' me here.

Why, there is this super stupid teacher who... um... never mind. It really makes me want to explode in anger. Fury, to be exact.

Whoosh... then comes the week of periodical examinations. Golly. Kasabay ng pasahan ng projects. *Swoon*

Sigh. I wish I was homeschooled. No, I wish I am. This is so hard.

The only things I look forward to... are very few. One is the upcoming Sunday, when I will be singing in front of the stake. Twice. And I will also see... and hear... other singers....

How I wish everything would be calm and serene again. How I wish that... that stupid teacher would be gone from my life forever. Unfortunately, Lady Luck is not on my side.

I am one stressed Tsarina.

Bosh.

Okayyyy...

It has been a long time since I logged on. See, wala po kami computer sa bahay kaya ganun. At super busy rin ako.

Ahm, okay lang naman ako, medyo busy. Art lessons are back. (Hoo-rah.)
I miss someone and I think I will see 'em tomorrow. I really really do miss 'em.

Well, I also miss a lot of other people in my life, such as my friends back in my first high school (ah, I miss you guys!) and my sister(hi ate). Though I have many friends here... I am still kinda lonely sometimes.

So... just letting you know I'm still alive. Sometimes I feel like closing this blog or something.

Thanks for reading.

After One Week...

2007-06-09T16:48:00.000+08:00

JUNE 9th, 2007

After one week, I had sore throat, fever and aching muscles. Oh, and a brain wrung like sponge.

So what? Being a junior is tough. Real tough. I tell you now!!!

Really, my head really needs brainwashing or something. It's sort of clogged up or stacked with bits of memory that need to be removed...

Sigh... now I am still having troubles on how to deal with 3rd year. And... how to approach these people I want to be close to. You know, I really am shy.

Well well, how are your lives going? Miss you lots!

Love from
Queen Helyon

High Times, Hard Times

2007-06-06T20:16:00.000+08:00

JUNE 6th, 2007

Hello. I'm here again. After only 3 days of school, I'm completely zonked out. >.<

Well... being a junior is fun, but I hate to go over sets again (Pre-Calculus) and Noli me Tangere (Filipino). But I hope I get high grades from these, and good thing the teachers of both subjects know me. Mrs. Mondoy was my class adviser last year and Mr. Dawisan was the class adviser of my sister, last year rin.

So. I want to be close with my new classmates (FYI: hetero kami ngayon.) but then, ung mga 2B classmates ko ang mga katabi ko. It's not bad, of course, but I want to be close to the others nga.

I want to think about other stuff such as my new art lessons this June (Advance 1 na ako!) and seminary (yeah!!). But they're not starting until... next or next next week.

So, bosh, I tell you, I'm going to be so, so busy. In fact, I'm planning to top the class in everything... but you know me, I'm not competitive. Just showing what I'm really made of. Well, I think there are distractions (never dreamed that this, um, attractive guy would be my classmate) but surely I will bop to the top.

Wait! Do I sound like I really want to crush the other people in 3-Carson? If so, sorry. I'm starting to love 'em. Many of them, to be exact.

I really have to search for these 36(!) theories. (I have 14 already, thanks ot my sister. Mr. Dawisan allowed only me. Well, that's not my doing, not my fault why that happened. Story next time.)

See you.

MAY 28th, 2007

Hehe. Sometimes it's funny when I read the other posts' titles. (I'm running out of ideas, see.)
But this one came to me and I think it really suits the story, you know.

Well. Pure gold. Hehehehe.

Okay, the art graduation took place yesterday. Hmmmm... It was definitely fun, but just some disappoinments: I saw not just one, but two people who were part of my past. (No use talking about it, see.)

Time to go to pure gold... the teacher has a delightful sense of humor, and that is exactly why I am still in fits of giggles.
But, to get the "pure gold" story clear, I have to start talking about the commencement exercises. Starting with PMWA Advance 2, Advance 1, then Beginners (same with every venue), then Triumph Building Monday and Thursday (that is where I belong) and finallly Phil. Heart Center workshoppers.

Okay... call 'em on. I thought you just get a certificate, and your trophy(97% to 99%) or medal(95%-96%). But then they even have gold medals for Best Homework, Best in Card Making, Best in Groupwork and even Best Costume(costume talaga! we were just wearing good ol' outfits)...

Lucky for me, I was last in my batch on the stage. See, there are so many of us graduating and so when the stage fills up, it's time for picture taking. Lucky if you are last because you are just beside the judge and Mr. Sena!! Yes, I was last.

Well, about the "pure gold"... the medals and the trophies were gold. Pure gold. Actually, they said P20 daw ung medal na tig-isa. Heehee. Mayaman, mayaman.

Huh? There wasn't anything funny about the pure gold, was there?

Okay, have you noticed na walang date sa mga post ko? I don't know why it's like that. I tried to fix it but it does not work. So I'll post the dates in the entry itself.

MAY 18, 2007.

There. All right. I'll begin.

My, my. A lot of stuff always happen to me, you know, even if I'm pretty bored.

Well. My art class graduation is coming up, and I'm pretty excited. Oh yes. Yesterday (my classes are on Thursdays) the teacher, Mr. F.B. Sena--you know him? Oh, he's the greatest. A true professional. He's the Father of Philippine Art Workshops, according to him, and director of Vargas Museum in U.P., Mom said--checked our sketchpads. I got 98%. Hooray!!! I'll receive a trophy on graduation day, May 27th. (You know, I've never seen anyone higher than 98. There were others who got 98, yes, but I did not see a 99 or even 100.)

Last Thursday (I mean last week) another thing happened. Well. The dance socials were fun. he only thing that made it fun was... a dance... with... someone that I never really expected to ask me. (Sorry. No more details, they could be reading this. I think they're not, though.)

So. Those are the reasons why I'm so giddy.

Busy Bored

2007-04-26T18:48:00.000+08:00

I am both busy. I am bored because I'm busy. Oh, wrong. I'm tired.

My sched is full up. No time for reflections whatsoever. Waaah!!!

Something else happened too. Our poor, poor game in Harvest Moon was gone. Like this: POOF!!! Don't know how that happened. But... arrgh!!!... we were far already. Popuri was even pregnant, see. :(

Oh well.... I have to finish my homework. Yes, homework. From my art classes.

My new addiction is Newsies. Well, I love the songs... and some of the guys. They're so cute! Pity they're older now. (The film was, like, 15 years ago. I wasn't even born then.)

See you all.

What Am I Doing?

2007-04-10T14:58:00.000+08:00

Sorry about this. No updates. Not like I promised. Okay, I'm sorry!!!

Well, what's on? Lots have happened. Today's card day and the grades were okay. But a sinking feeling still haunts me...

What am I doing at home? I almost never go online. There are a lot of things to do than surfing the 'Net. Though, of course I like doing that.

Well, I like to watch the same DVD movies over and over and over again. I continue to read The Fellowship of the Ring.

The most addicting stuff is the game. Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town. We just started playing last Saturday. My brother was so kilig when Popuri's heart turned purple earlier. Forgive him; it's an achievement.

But there was someone who was bothering me. He's so pesky. Can't get him outta my hair!!! Oh, fudge! He won't stop!

Arrghh!!!

I'll see ya soon.
Love ya.

Near the End

2007-03-20T22:16:00.000+08:00

Okay. So I see that I still have it. The wait-until-deadline-and-cram habit. Yikes. It's really ruining my life, you know? Hay.

Matatapos na po ang school year, yes, we know that. Summer's almost here. But then. Heat makes me go crazy. I loooove rainy days, you know? Yeah.

Oh, and by the way. I would be having a new blog na. So. The URL in your linkies should be changed. I'll post it here, and I'll tag you.

So tag me while I'm still posting here.

Love you lots,
Queen Helyon

Yes!!! I'm on again!

2007-03-17T16:28:00.000+08:00

Yay. Got into this bloggy again!!!
Now I can update it, and everything...

Patapos na ang school year... Boo-hoo. Or maybe... YIPEE!!! Vacation na! May guitar lessons ako, or maybe art class. Whatever. But say, I want to go on the RYC na Makati ang kasama and see those friends again...

Now I am currently experiencing writer's block, and so it's very hard to write stories and blog entries. Yes, I'm inspired by LOTR and Chronicles of Narnia.

Wait. do you guys still know me? Baka hindi na ah?
Kasi naman, napakatagal na hindi nagpopost, no?

Anyway. I'll keep you updated, just like I used to. Promise!

Escape from Reality (The World)

2006-12-29T15:11:00.001+08:00

Sorry, kung hindi ako nag-post for Christmas. Wala tuloy akong nabati. Waaaaahhh... :(

Nakahinga na naman ako ngayong break. Sandaling nalimutan lahat ng iniisip ko. Siniksik ko silang lahat sa likod ng utak.

Pero marami pa ring ginagawa. Biology, computer, botany. Haaay, tumalon na lang ako sa pinkamataas na palapag ng pinakamataas na gusali. Subukin kong magsipag.

Marahil bumaba na yung I.Q. ko. 'Yan ang nangayayari kapag nadala ng kaginhawaan ng bakasyon. Marahil hindi rin. Dahil ang ginawa ko naman ngayon ay basahin ang mga aklat na inuwi ni Mommy.

Nakita ko ulit ang mga kamag-aral ko kahapon dahil sa pag-eensayo para sa asignatura ng Ingles. Parang baha... biglang bumuhos agad yung mga bagay na nilagay ko sa likod ng utak. Kaya naasar ako. Pero... ayos lang siguro, dahil hindi sila nagsawa sa pag-kukwento ko at pagpapantasya na ako ang reyna ng kaharian namin sa forum. Queen Helyon. Tungkol sa mga kapangyarihan ko (flight, illusion, invisibility, healing). Yung apat na prinsesa. Yung kabayo ko... nadala na naman ako. Ahem...

Marami na naman akong bagong addiction. Awww. Basta.

Helyon

P.S. Happy New Year!!! Nabibingi na ako sa kanyon(?) ng mga bata. Laruan lang nila yun. Alam mo yun? Yung parang mahabang tubo na may parang baril(?).... tapos may takip sa dulo. Yun. Ayoko na... Takot rin ako sa paputok. Yaaahh!!!

Christmas Hovers About

2006-12-15T22:28:00.000+08:00

I feel that Christmas is like a ghost that floats through all of us. Doesn't just sit waiting, but spreading the spirit to everyone. Well... ewan ko na.

Go 2-B! Great presentation. Kapagod, grabe. Pero ayos lang.

Hmmm... what's happened lately? I don't know what to say anymore.

Well... Pasko na. Pero hinahanap (hinahanap) Pasko rito... !!! Ang Pasko sa..._____

Haaaayyy... Merry Christmas *Gives everyone a hug*

Thank You Po!!!

2006-11-30T22:17:00.000+08:00

Yes, first of all I say thank Thee to my Father in heaven, sino pa ba... ang aking one and only Heavenly Father! Thank Thee for keeping my mommy safe and showering me with blessings and trials every single day. Thou Omnipotent Hand is very omnipotent. I am really grateful to Thee dahil walang pasok at nakapg-spend pa kami ng time with our family.

Thank you to all of those people who still remember me and read my posts! Sorry, papagawa ko na lang yung HaloScan sa Ate Katia ko... thank you Ate Kat ah..

Thank you rin kay Mommy dearest sa mga binigay niya. What I got:

A LYNX T-shirt ng WNBA. The color is green and I love it! (I'm wearing it right now.)
A Pistons jersey. (I wanted Celtics or Suns, remember? But of course I accepted it. NBA kasi.)
Halloween Candy. (Pez yung brand ng candy....)
VS Endless Love. (Keep in touch with the feminine side. I still consider myself as a kid, though.)
Complete set of Chronicles of Narnia. (Nice... kaso, naiba yung ayos ng books! At nawawala pa yung Magician's Nephew. Kaya incomplete pala. Wah.)
This stuffed frog na pam-Valentine's Day. (I'm still thinking of a name. Any suggestions?)
Cellphone. (It looks sosy on the outside pero hindi pala colored. Anyway, I want to use it first before my sisters do kapag napa-open line na yun.)
Varsity shirt. (I'm not exactly sure what it is pero it's pink. Urgh. I accept everything, because I'm polite.)
A shirt to wear on Sundays. (I still can't find a skirt to match it.)
A Bratz bag. (Oh, well. I want to bring it to school.)

Okay. So nawawala yung wish kong beef jerky ($30 daw ang isa!!!) at yung mga SpongeBob, at Series of Unfortunate Events. I hope they're in the other box (parating pa lang).

Yay! Thank you po!!!

Konting Tiis na Lang!

2006-11-27T23:03:00.000+08:00

Yes! Filipino ang pamagat ng sulatin ko ngayon. Bakit ba? Mas masaya kasi kapag Filipino ang ginagamit ko.

E, totoo naman, kaunting tiis na lang....!!! Makararanas ako ng ginhawa! Kahit na ayaw ko talagang pumasok sa paaralan, masisiyahan naman akooo!!!

Ang bumabalot nga lamang na kaba sa akin, nagbunutan kami ulit dun sa Kris Kringle chakaness sa klase. 'Ba, nakatatakot naman iyong nabunot ko. Baka hindi matuwa sa mga ihahandog ko.

Ah, pero, basta... malapit nang tumigil ang aking matindi at labis na "pagdurusa".

Swirls

2006-11-24T22:38:00.000+08:00

Okay, no kidding around here. The title reminds me of swirly ice cream pops and stuff about colorful dresses. But the truth is... it's what's going on in my head right now.

Something happened earlier and I got caught in the middle of it. Luckily it's solved so soon. But seeing my classmate broken and really torn felt so odd. She really screamed. But only when I was the only one in sight. Oh well.

Another reason why my head is in whirpools is that I caught cold again. Man. My little head feels so heavy, as if all of the stuff climbed up to my brain. Yuck. Ugh. I feel really bad.

Still, there are many things to do tomorrow... wake up at 4:30... and I will have to go to practice at 1:00-5:00. Phew.

My grades improved. But I will go for another skyrocketing boost.

See you again.

All I want for Christmas

2006-11-21T23:58:00.000+08:00

Okay, so Christmas is still a month ahead. But I wanted to post everything I want to receive and what I would like to happen.

Hmmm...

A basketball jersey. (Boston Celtics or Phoenix Suns.)
A pack of beef jerky.
Another nice book.
A box of chocolate-covered raisins.
More candies.
Green-colored stuff.
A small notebook.

What else?

I want to meet him at last. (Huh? What's this, Helyon?)
Do great at the coming multi-stake seminary class. (What's the sched? Dec. 2 or 9?)
Have a great time.
Everyone to be safe and happy and healthy.

Those may be just a few.

Hehehe... just updatin'. See y'all later.

Still Sad

2006-11-14T21:26:00.000+08:00

Sigh... it's been... six months already. Yet I still am not used to this.

I'm still super depressed. My classmates are still the same, ghoulish-like... chorva. Ewan. The teachers seem demented. I appear invisible to my batchmates. Hello?!

Why are they so...?!?

I am so super depressed. I never cried, yet I feel so desperately sad. I feel haunted by memories... and I dream of things that could have happened. Then I open my eyes and go back to this boring and extremely cruel world.

Argh. They are so, super feelerz talaga. Haaaay naku.

The Real Dreams

2006-11-06T00:46:00.000+08:00

Okay, so Miss SpongeBob lover here is still dreaming. Her little head is in the clouds.

POOF! Suddenly, the girl wakes up....

Erhm, what is this craziness naman o? Well, may hangover pa ang bata. Galing ako sa Batangas eh. Hrrmmm.... still dreaming of... Mr. F.Q. Yikes. Otherwise known as the Wednesday person. Okay na.

Well, my dreams are real. I just woke up again and again.
What I'm really trying to say is... I don't want to go to school.

Hay, naku poww... bakit ba ganito na lang ang buhay ko? Oh please. I want to escape from this... reality and go back to the real dreams.

I would like the fake things better than the real ones. Okay, I'll just go to Fantasy World and ride on the clouds.

This post doesn't makes sense. I told you, my little precious head is in Fantasy World, Dreamland or Imaginary Room.

Okay... stop! Erm. What, you call this a BREAK? Come on! I'm still suffering from pain!!! EEEYYYYYAAHH!!!

Hey, stop that! Well, naka-usap ko si Mommy last night. Ehrm... well, I miss her na eh. Soon, not anymore.

Argh...hindi ko tuloy sila makikita. (Awww.) Well, ganun talaga.

My story: Buti na lang nagpakabait siya ngayon. Kasi takot ako sa kanya eh. Kaya, okay na.

I want something else. The true feeling of being cared for.

Changes

2006-10-13T20:03:00.000+08:00

There has been a lot of changes ever since. I mean a lot! Well, hindi ko kasi na-uupdate itong blog ko, so I have to write about the newest things.

Okay, so... hindi na ako Kapamilya, kasi, sapilitang naging Kapuso, malabo yung channel 2 namin, halos wala na nga... pero natutunan ko na ring mahalin yung palabas nila. ('Sensiya, wala kaming cable eh.)

Haay... basta marami nang bago sa akin... including closenesses and people from afar. Ayyy... at nakaiinis, from P70-P100 ay naging P50 ang pera ko. Mahirap, marami pa akong kailangan ngayon lalo na't marami kaming tatapusing project.

Yaaaargghh... Thanks anyway. I missed you.

Slip-Sliding

2006-10-07T13:06:00.000+08:00

Wahehe. Updates. There are just some embarrassing things that aren't funny at all.

First time ko lang talaga masama sa isang open forum. At unang-una pa talaga akong issue. Grabe. Sana hindi na lang dun sa likod nakaupo si Joshua. Ah, well. Too straight. I should've answered back the same thing he said. Well... but what I had said, natawa naman classmates ko. Okay. Loosen up. Whew.

Ayyyyy... nakaiinis talaga si... *blank.* Oh well. Kaasar naman talaga siya. Shouldn't have said that in front of everybody!!! Well...

Yesterday... may bagong suspicions na ako. Is it only my imagination, or is that stranger really looking my way? Nandun siya, sa classroom. Sabi niya kay *blank*... "May sasabihin ako sa iyo."

Whoa. Hope things get better soon.

Reciting in class, stuff like homeworks and quizzes, they're okay.

Serious Conditions

2006-09-25T17:33:00.000+08:00

We're in a tight spot right now. Another "depressing" post. This time this is not about school, stuff about me. It's my beloved grandma...

Oh, how I wish I could go to her right now. No, no, please... I want to see her again. Oh, please.

Please pray for my grandma. Thank you.

Another seriousness... we should discuss that next time.

So Far, So-So

2006-09-23T12:55:00.000+08:00

Wahehe. So far, so-so. Well, that's because nothing too much exciting, too much happy or too much sad is happening. Pantay lang. So...

I have a weird suspicion about this girl. Sheesh, she is doing something. Can you imagine? Well, she does something that is... suspicious. I'd rather not say it.

Sorry about that. I'm just too busy. I am currently playing AdventureQuest on www.battleon.com. It's cute, but I had a little problem. Ty it for yourself. It's an RPG game!

See you next time. Just updating you.

Tokyo Girls (and Teriyaki Boyz)

2006-09-19T21:24:00.000+08:00

Okay. So about the Japanese people living in Tokyo. Well... I liked an article I read, about the Tokyo teens handling tough temptations. See, htey are like me. We are members of the same Church and we do have tempations but DO NOT heed them.

The song from The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (by Teriyaki Boyz) is cool. I just saw the lyrics on the blackboard of my sister's classroom when I went there to dump my stuff in the locker. She explained that it was from the Fast and the Furious stuff. Okay... but only this week I heard the song. (You can, too... may YouTube diyan sa "About Me", just scroll down. Initial D video in that song.) Well, I'm choosing my words, actions, and thoughts more carefully and I'm very aware about it. Of course, I'm careful about the right media!

It's cute. Oh, it's almost done loading. I'll listen first. See you next post. Bye again!

Strength

2006-09-15T22:42:00.000+08:00

The title explains it all. Not only physical strength but also emotional and spiritual. Have I been weak lately?

Tell me, what is the real sign of tears? Weakness? I do not think so. Man believe that it is sort of like... a way to show people that you are defeated. I know... it is a strength. The courage and bravery to let out your true feelings is a positive sign. A sign of triumph.

The spiritual weakness. I try to be good, but it is hard. I try to stay under my shelter of strength, virtue and integrity. I am very active in church and I love to be. Now I surprised myself! I woke up. I saw that my youthful innocence has sort of... it... sort of went the wrong way. But it is not too late! I saw that I can still stay pure and righteous. I have my ring to remind me. I wear it everywhere. I sing the beautiful song... "Rise Above." You may not know it, but it's my life theme song. And it will go on forever and ever...

By the way. The Tuesday Guy is very nice to me. He shows concern when I'm sad. Even though you are not reading this, thank you for the comfort. I am really glad that he became my classmate. I'm getting closer to him. Thank you.

Helyon

P.S. I want to say sorry for all of those I have done any wrong, and thank you all for the friendship. Thanks. For the comfort you give me when I'm sad.

Let us not wait for the end of the world to say how much we love each other.

Hope this will give you food for thought.

Blue Ribbons

2006-09-14T22:14:00.000+08:00

I like my blue stuff. Dark blue ribbons and blue bags. Blue file cases and blue cellphone casings. Blue.

Blue can mean "sad" I like the meaning "honest." So true.

I also want a blue necktie and a real blue ribbon that I can actually tie on my hair (like the pink ribbon that was wrapped around the wrapper of the birthday gift, but is lost now, alas).

Bluuuue!

(Sorry kung bitin na naman yung post, alanganin eh, kasi nagmamadali po yung ate ko!)

Hehehe... :)

Wah... It's Over! (Fourteen Years.)

2006-09-12T00:24:00.000+08:00

Awwww... I haven't even posted on the birthday itself. Kasi... antagal nila sa computer! Grrr.... Wah! But I'll relate the events of the day.

Okay, started off... got up past 5. My sister made a me a BIG poster of "Happy 14th Birthday Meg!" blah blah blah. She even put the Chinese happy birthday (what is it again?) and highlighted the letters in green highlighter. Well, my favorite color is green forever, you know that, men.

Then, nakakainis talaga dahil we have to hold the opening program of Science Month in the crummy AVR (whoopsie, masikip talaga!!! If it was in PSHS we would have held it in the hot but WIDE gym). Argh, totally bored. Tapos napalayo pa yung boy classmates namin (bad luck, kid, but what do I care?)... I liked the first dance, the fourth years, "Walk to the Top" or something. I loved the interpretative dance of the third years of course, when I just first saw it, not because they won first place.

Ah. Forward, forward na natin like a remote control!!!

Okay. So Mr. Tuesday guy is so nice to me. I like him so much. Well, I want to be close to him, you know, as in CLOSE FRIEND, because he's somewhere near me now. (Actually I'm the one that's near.)

Ah well. I hate the day, so I just want to go the evening part. Went out to dinner... um, KFC (masaya na ako dun, kahit na yung sisters ko this year kumain kami sa Yoshinoya and Teriyaki Boy). Of course, the "traditional" Red Ribbon cake. I picked a Chocolate Mousse one, since my sisters had Choco-Strawberry Torte (?) and Black Forest. Well... my presents are...

Book the Sixth sa A Series of Unfortunate Events (I love you, Duncan Quagmire!)
Quadruple (Haha. Set of Scriptures, in case you do not know.)

That's it.

Thanks to everyone who greeted! Love ya!

You Should Date A Japanese Guy!

You're an interesting blend of traditonal and modern
And a Japanese guy is likely to be on your wavelength
Maybe you'll show your love by dying your hair the same color
Or get married in a traditional white kimono!

Which Foreign Guy Should You Date?

See? I was right about the cute Japanese boys. :)

Lots of News

2006-09-06T15:00:00.000+08:00

I mean, "news." News as in balita ba? Pwede rin...

Okay. So there is a Monday guy, di ba? There is also ______, as mentioned from last post. Let's call him... um... Saturday guy. There is another guy, still!!! We could call him Tuesday guy, though...

There are different people. There is even a Sunday guy. Confusing, seeing as I like a lot if people. Let's see their status with 'em... Ano ba 'yan, ang daming tao.

Sunday guy - confirmed. He has said... (Clue: three words.)
Monday guy - not sure, not too much possibility
Tuesday guy - very thin chance, as everyone knows he likes someone else.
Saturday guy - not sure, but a lot of possibility

Okay... this is getting really bad. Too many, I say. Of course, we might pick the Sunday man, but Saturday has something... that is not in these other guys, that I require in order to marry him.

Aaaaah! Well, Helyon! What do I know about marrying? I have a mature mind, so I tend to plan things way ahead of me.

Wait, wait! Not even marrying, but this requirement is also needed to have a relationship with him. Well, actually i have the choice, but choose to require it!

Ahhh... gift ko, ha? I'll be turning 14 in 5 days!

Unexpected Meeting

2006-09-02T16:34:00.000+08:00

I posted something like this in my Quizilla account. But since this is more visited than my journal there... I'm posting!

I can't believe what happened last night!!! I saw him...when I didn't expect him.

He was in his school uniform, with some guys. I immediately noticed him as he passed by. I couldn't miss the face! Plus, he was talking.

I forgot what he was actually saying because I was too stunned. Good thing he didn't see me looking at him...

Then... I had said aloud, "Uy, si ______!"

I thought he was so far away from where I was. What I was shocked to see that he was just somewhere near, looking my way. Whoopsie!!!

Did he hear what I said? Yung mga kasama ko hindi yata siya napansin, kasi maraming tao eh. But as he was walking away he kept shooting glances at us, maybe wondering why we were there! I was super scared.(So we're actually the ones not supposed to be there. but I just didn't know that his school was near that place.)

As he disappeared... he left a question in my mind.

Is it possible that he feels the same way? *Shivers*

Anyway! My birthday is 9 (nine!) days away na lang!!!

See you. Love you all.

Yours faithfully, Helyon

New Beginnings!

2006-08-31T23:53:00.000+08:00

I'm writing because this is the last day of August. This means a lot of things.

1. It's the end of summer. (Autumn is beginning!)
2. Ber months are to begin too! (Christmas countdown!)
3. My birthday is 11 days away!!!
4. More people's birthdays.

Okay, so I was really freaking pissed. *Deep breath* Luckily, I was able to let it out.

I'm just typing the research work sa Filipino... I just started kaninang mga 8 o'clock! Whoa! There are 8 pages! HOLD ON! Not to panic about, for I am nearly done! Heheh! (Bilis mag-type, 'no?) Shut up, ang yabang naman nun. Sorry po.

More accomplishments! Nagiging ok na ako sa Algerbra! Heheh!

Okay, don't forget my gift!

Fill-in:
I just go this from Quizilla. Just part of a result... but...
Third Year: This year, you made the team as a beater, and enjoyed the life as a House teammate. In your first game against Gryffindor, the cute Keeper caught your eye. Oliver Wood soon became your huge crush, and day and night you would dream about that handsome Scot.

In one of the last games of the season, you were so distracted that you whacked a stray beater directly at Oliver, something that you had vowed not to do all year. Oliver ended up with a couple broken ribs and nose, and was sent to the hospital wing for a long time.During that time, you plucked up the courage to go visit him, and apologize.

As you walked into the Hospital Wing, you quickly noticed his lanky figure on the cot nearest to the door. Still in your Hufflepuff robes, you rushed over to him just as he opened his eyes.

"You?" he asked in disbelief, and tried to sit up.

"No, no. I'm sorry, Wood. It- - - "

"Hey, you're a beater. It's your job." Oliver flashed his sweet, determined smile at you and your insides melted once more.

"Still, I feel really bad about it. Is there anything that I can do?" you asked nervously, twisting a strand of hair around your finger.

"You know, you're pretty good," he mumbled, ignoring your question for the time being. "How long have you played Quidditch?"

"Just two years. Why?"

"You're amazing," he answered, and you blushed. "Thanks," you answered shyly, and left him in the Hospital Wing.

Two weeks later, you were wandering in the halls, singing to yourself, when an arm grabbed you. Shrieking and dropping your books, you looked up in the face of none other than Oliver Wood.

"H-hi, Wood," you stuttered, trying to pick up your textbooks while still maintaining eye contact.

He bent down and helped you, grinning at you the whole time. "Call me Oliver, won't you?"

"S-sure."

"Listen, I was thinking about what you said to me two weeks ago."

"What?"

"You said if there was anything you could do for me. Well there is." Oliver walked down the hall towards the Hufflepuff dorms with you.

"Okay. . . what?"

"Can you meet me in the Entrance Hall after dinner?"

"Sure." You walked into the Hufflepuff Common Room, leaving him behind, your heart beating wildly inside.
~~~~~
"Hey," you called out in the dusky Entrance Hall. You wore an old hooded sweater and jeans, slightly worn.

A figure stepped out, which you recognized immediately. "Hello. Care to join me for a ride?" Oliver asked, walking towards you. In his hand was his prized broom, gleaming with new polish.

"But I dont have my broom!" You answered, falling into step with him. He led you out a different passageway that opened up immediately to the Quidditch Pitch.

"That's the point. We share," he whispered, lifting you up onto his broom and then mounting it himself.

You two took a long, moonlit ride for hours, hovering over the Hogwarts grounds and the lake, just talking about regular things. You discovered that he was a very nice guy, although sometimes got carried away with his ambitions.Like all things, the dreamy ride came to an end.

However, Oliver didn't seem to make any move to leave the Quidditch Pitch, and ended up admitting his feelings for you and how he had noticed you from the day you played against him in Quidditch. You were happy beyond belief, and awarded him with a small, dainty kiss. Then you both had to return to your dorms, and soon became a couple the next day.

Both of you were happy with the relationship, and stayed together the whole year. On the last day of school, you had to bid a tearful good bye to your sweet Keeper, and promised to keep in touch.

Aaaaaayyyy! I just love it so much! It left me pink in the cheeks!

Daily Sufferings

2006-08-29T20:36:00.000+08:00

Every weekday, rather. I suffer from common sufferings. Yeah.

Well... I am very sad because of all of these emotional and physical troubles. *Sigh* Napapagod na ako. I'm going down...

I am super exhausted. Oh why do I talk about these stupid things? I'm ruining your day, pardon me. 'Sensiya, talagang ganito ako eh. Okay, happy things naman...

Hmmm... ewan ko eh. Masyado akong D-E-P-R-E-S-S-E-D. Um, brighten up my day.

Oh! Listen...

My birthday is on the 11th. I accept gifts. Heehee, thank you.

The First Good Monday

2006-08-28T17:42:00.000+08:00

Hooray! Scriptorian ako! Nasa Top 3 pa! Wahahaha!!! I'm so happy! Just soooo happy!

And then, kanina, first place section namin sa Sabayang Pagbigkas!

Now these are two achievements, stuff. I hate Mondays, remember? But I like today. A big load has been taken off me.

Last Saturday was another super dee duper day.

Ahh... The pleasures of life.

I have more Pokemon now. Just wait...

Love ya!

Little Squirty and Co.

2006-08-25T21:01:00.000+08:00

I just made another account in the Pokemon Crater Website. I just started. My brother is super addicted. He's got 60 more or less Pokemon already...

Too bad I evolved my Squirtle. Hindi na tuloy siya cute. Ang cute talaga eh. Okay lang naman yung Wartortle pero cuuuuuuuuuute talaga yung nauna, with a capital C!

Right now I have 5 Pokemon, maybe mamaya marami na.

Uhm, what am I doing now... I'm doing more research tungkol kay Oliver, I mean, Sean. And I'm kind of feeling weird because Mr. Monday Guy is far from my seat now. Hmmm... hindi ko na tuloy siya nakakausap.

Oh wait. I would like to say something about our Geometry presentation yesterday...

Well, of course our group is good! It's just that... pakiramdam ko iyon na ang pinaka-nakahihiyang bagay na nagawa ko sa buong buhay ko! Kasi naman, ako pa yung huli.

My entrance sa aking solo sequence. Detalyado ito.
Yung song ko kasi ay may problem sa na-burn na CD. So, I taught Joyce the technique, forward yung track na iyon. Joyce announced the introduction, "And last but not the least..." stuff like that. I sucked in air as I looked down on the path of my three to five minutes of fame. Soon, I heard the music start.

Yah! I like my song because it's the girly pop kind. My entrance was weird, I was doing some sort of dance. Okay, so like my other groupmates... nasigawan, nahiyawan. But then... I spotted a straight face in the crowd. *sigh* Of course it was Miss Snaky. Oh well. Then I signalled Joyce na hinaan na yung music. I started to speak.

Okay, I don't want to put here what I said, but I say that Ms. Balanay has this weord, questioning look on her face while I did the speech. Sheesh. Okay, exit na, Helyon.

Whew. Okay, thank you gain for reading. I have lots of new visitors on my blog, and my heart is overflowing with joy. Thank you po!

Love ya!

Oliver!

2006-08-23T23:32:00.000+08:00

How I jitter whenever I hear or read the name. Well... I like Oliver Wood. Actually Sean Biggerstaff, the one who played the character. Ah. Just the Perfect Tense Re-test in English, Test I...

3. Oliver (find, not) the perfect girl yet.

Hmmm... and that was just recently. Hehehe. I know it's the guy from II-A but I can't help thinking about the cute Keeper.

There are other Olivers in my life. There's the boy named (he's actually nameless) Oliver Twist. Just the other day, pauwi sa jeep, there was this scary man sitting across me and he did something like, you know, Oliver, Master Charley Bates, and Dick. (This might not be clear to most of you, because it's a very very censored thing my green-minded classmates thought of. But I don't want to tell you.) Anyway I was scared. Yuck!!! Someone! Help!

Well, I just remembered Oliver again. So I sang, "Oliver, Oliver!" and the other songs from the movie Oliver! (a musical) like "Consider Yourself," "Where is Love", "Oompapa, Oompapa," and my favorite (but my classmates made a gross version again...) "I'll Do Anything For You" chorva.

Remember to take my quizzes at Quizilla! Thank you!

European Touches

2006-08-18T20:17:00.000+08:00

I am European. Yes, I come from the Philippines, but I say that I'm a total Western girl.

I come from four European nationalities. Four war-freak countries. Four countries that have changed the course of century over the years. Four places you have read about. But... how did you come from that, Helyon?

Well, the proof is very clear. You have seen it, but not noticed it too much.

You see... it's all in my name.

Yes, yes, yes! Let me show you!
Margaux- FRENCH
Alyssa- ENGLISH
Ruivivar- PORTUGUESE
Nuñez- SPANISH

See... French vs. English, Hundred Years' War and Portuguese vs. Spanish in world colonization.

Fascinating, di ba? Mag-aral na tayo ng History...

UPDATES:
Remember Monday Guy in previous post? Well... kanina... bago mag Business Math... he asked to to sing and I asked "Bakit?"

"Basta..." was his reply. I shrugged, but I did anyway. And the expression on his face was dreamy while I sang. Weird.

Meltdown!

2006-08-17T15:07:00.000+08:00

Sigh, maybe it should be "Total Embarrassment." I am way freakin' embarrassed.

There are lots of things you can connect with the word "Melted." Melted chocolate, melted ice cream, melted cheese, melted ice...

Okay, that's me. The small ice cube. It melted. How? It started... um, nung Monday...

Geometry. He borrowed my red pen. Gave me the most disarming smile ever. I would never forget that; I could still picture it in my little head. The ice cube melted.

Tapos umuulan nung araw na yun... hindi pa raw siya umuwi agad, kasi nga po umuulan... So I went down with my classmates...

Nauna pa siyang umuwi sa kin... Nung dumaan siya, he smiled... "Uy!" and slapped me on the back as he walked passed. Left me open-mouthed. Then left me worried, nagpaulan kasi. Melted again.

Then, miracle of miracles, later that day... nagtext naman si James Chan. (What the--?) Well I have learned na ang crush niya raw si Celina Gonzalez, my love. How could he text me when he's... over my love. My love... But I guess her heart is still mine. Despite that, I melted some more. Some people know the four-month period of... um, basta magical four-month period. November to February, I think.

Then the next day, si Jonats naman, nagtext din. Why are they doing this? Miss me? Maybe. Melt.

And it's been regular... the good night texts ni Kuya Richard. (Hmmmm...) Melt, I say. Water na ako, liquid form na...

But yesterday... when I learned that the guy who started all of this melting (Monday guy) has a weird liking for another person I find nice but I barely know... a flame ignited from somewhere and I evaporated. What happened?

Okay, I leave you to the mystery of the "Evaporated Ice." Yesterday first stipend day ko... and it went okay. Kaya lang, my spirits were dampened by that stupid "Monday guy". Huh. I hate him, I think.

Love you lots, and please comment. *Mwah.*
