for everyone
While waiting for my damn download to finish, I did this. I'm obviously bored...

You share 8 things that your readers don't know about you. Then at the end, you tag 8 other bloggers to keep the fun going.

* Each blogger must post these rules first.
* Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
* Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
* At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
* Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them that they're tagged, and to read your blog.

1.  I am a kid at heart. (And will always be.)
2. I love Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton. (any flavor) When I still live in a dorm, I eat only pancit canton on Fridays. (Means I have no money left.)
3. I can do different sleeping positions while riding public jeepneys. (Of course I don't lie down. xP)
4. I name my favorite/needed belongings. And I use names of anime girls. (ex. Yuki = laptop; Rei = scientific calcu xD; Aoi = old celphone; Chi = fav mechanical pencil)
5. I played a lot of RPG's on PS1 but the only title that I finished was Final Fantasy Tactics (4 times.)
6. I truly hate seeing wet cigarette butts and chewed bubble gum. (*Hatred eye activate*)
7. Most of the time, when I clean my ears using cotton buds, I fall to sleep unknowingly. (Luckily, the cotton buds don't get inside my ears.)
8. I never had a girlfriend once. I'm a bit frustrated for not having one 'til now, but I'm kinda convinced that being single has advantages too. *grins*

I'll tag, hmm..
1. Hani (Mami, pengeng baon..)
2. Yuki (Iwanan ang lecheng life.)
3. Ate Aya (Asan ka na?)
4. Melissa (Commish for our cos? =P)
5. Maki (Kahit ayaw mo)
6. Han (Kahit BUSY ang stat mo sa YM)
7. Malx (Mababasa mo ba 'to?!)
8. ____ (Ikaw na bumabasa, lagay mo name mo!!!)

Ahh, I don't want to remind you guys by leaving a comment on yer guestbooks. I'm lazy. Re-post this or don't. Bahala na kayo.

EDIT: Well, I did wrote on your guestbooks too. Guess I'm really bored.. >.>

Back to work. And oh..

Haruhi Suzumiya: fuck the internet, it fails to appease me.

1. UP Los Banos is being swarmed by a new batch of filthy rich-looking kids. (Peace out, freshies!) Looks like the effect of the increase in tuition fee is starting to show. A real climatic change for the campus. Nice job old farts! (And no freshmen, I don't have a grudge on you. I just hate the increase, that's all.)



2. On the brighter side of things, Jjampongs (Korean students) are multiplying like flies in the campus. And every season in the Philippines is summer for them, so they wear relatively refreshing outfits. Hmm, now that's a good news for perverted male seniors who have acute fetishes on Korean girls. *looks the other way*



3. I did something unintelligent this morning regarding my loan. If I only used my brain a little more, I could have finished the processing of papers for half a day instead of two consecutive days. I won't delve into details because it's just .. stupid.




4. I have a neat haiku. I have thought of it this morning.

Foot of the mountain
I walk thy path lead by fate
WTF
(last line reads as "dobolyu-ti-ef")


5. I don't know if I could attend Toycon. Decisions will all be tomorrow, depending on me and my friends' mood. *sigh*






6. I wonder if Madam President can turn each Friday the 13th to a regular non-working holiday, so that people won't hate these days.






7. I went to a nearby SM this afternoon to buy a new USB mouse, then guess what. I've seen two kinds of people that I don't normally see: (1) a Chinita-triplet, complete with uniform outfits and hairstyle, all in mini-skirts - I almost die in delight; and (2) an emo guy with a Sasuke T-shirt - the legacy of the Uchiha has been passed...

Blog EntryStir-fried Summer Vacation (06.2008) - 2Jun 8, '08 1:25 PM
for everyone
{WARNING: A bit long of a blog entry}

I always strive to make my summer vacation fulfilling. And this year's summer vacation? It's full of obvious contradictions. Meaningful and pointless. Profound and shallow. Pleasing and disappointing. Exciting and boring. Happy and sad. Dead and alive. Day and night. Okay, whatever that means. But seriously, I used to take summer classes and made my vacations useful. And because of my utter naivety, I decided not to take my practicum this summer and to focus on other non-academical things, that I thought would make me a better human being. Yeah, I'm always a boring person, so I spend my life at home, on computer shops to play LAN games, and sometimes at friends' houses. And this summer's pretty much the same, but a slight variation. What variation? Here's my attempt to summarize my summer vacation. My stupid self, here's the rundown...


The Artist in the Making?!
Not a film actor. An artist, traditional or digital artist. Someone who draws something using some medium and a good volume of imagination. I told myself that I would try to improve skills in drawing, coloring and stuff. I don't want to be "professional-good", but quite good would be enough. But then, enemy arrives...again. The name is LAZINESS. But then I tried to conquer it. I ended up doing some fanarts, and studying some art style and technical skill. I didn't put what I've learned in my efforts though. Everything's always half-assed, always, always half-assed, just like these ones:Especially the last one, which due last June 7, I didn't finished it (the rendering is incomplete) because of indefinite hiatuses, and the abrupt change of mood each time I continue my work. So, the art didn't make it to the contest. I'll still finish it though, for the sake of wasted time and effort.

I remember my sempai's advice, that in the professional art world, there is no such thing as "I'll draw when I feel like drawing. Circumstances won't permit you to rest. So draw, and draw." But I don't strive to be a professional artist, but only to inherit professional artists' traits in work. I think it has something to do with motivation, or the lack thereof. Motivation? What/who could motivate Kej? Who knows?


The Coach Potato Evolved into a PC Bum
I lost interest on watching TV. I only watch very few shows nowadays. I even reduced my daily anime intake. But then, I became too sticked on the PC instead. Reading manga like there's no tomorrow, browsing weird to nonsense websites, invading forums, playing online and emulation games, etc. Yeah, I do this before, but this vacation, I spent roughly 85% of my time on front of the PC. Eye cramps? Butt osteoporosis? Yes, I have those!
Besides Superkids and WCG /WEG on Arirang, Noctural Emissions on MAXXX, random shows on NHK and Nat Geo, I watch Witch Yoo Hee on TV. So don't worry! I'm still on the borderline of abnormal(geek) and extremely abnormal(geek).


Moar Manga
Though not as much as Shalnark-sama, I manage to read more manga titles this vacation. Oh, is it any good? Somehow. My otaku-ish Spidey sense tells me it's alright to read lots of manga on vacation, so I can catch up with the latest and match up with those know-it-all suckers! Ah...

...besides the ongoing titles that I already caught up with the latest scanlations...

(Naruto, Bleach, D.Gray-man,.. blah blah blah);

...I read some completed works...

(BLAME!,  Battle Royale, Chobits, some one-shots and doujins);

...caught up with the latest scanlations of other titles

(Soul Eater, Hunter x Hunter, Hajime no Ippo, Nabari no Ou, Deadman Wonderland, Xblade, Nodame Cantabile, Liar Game, Doubt);

...and started reading some others.

(Air Gear, Angel Densetsu, Gintama, Kekkaishi, Mysterious Girlfriend X.)

Reading these titles implies, eye cramps. I almost died.Everyone can learn something by reading these. Me? I've learned a lot: that a messy room doesn't mean you're useless, but maybe eccentric (Nodame); lying can save your life (Liar Game, Doubt); and the only way to get to the Netsphere without breaching the seemingly impossible program of the Safeguards is to find a human with the Net Terminal genes and use him/her to access the Netsphere (BLAME!). See, I've learned a lot. And that's the good point. And another, because I read too much, I wouldn't be reading much when classes start. Just like the wise ant or a good congressman.


The Magnificent World of Cosplay!
I've already talked much about this. Ozine Fest 08 and Mangaholix 08 are such a blast! It's quite fulfilling. Cosplay. Not a cheap and easy hobby. But real fun. You can even get to meet friends. Some can be as weird as you. Some can be as evil as you. And some can be so damn cute that you can't resist temptation and you'll eventually lost to oblivion. (And no, I don't think like this.)


Body, Mind, Heart and Soul
One of my goals this vacation is to gain weight. But damn, it's quite hard to when you always lack sleep and the summer sun's heat drains your energy. No exercise too. My mindset was okay, though
it seems I sometimes
space out or seem to hallucinate. Kinda freaky, but it's true. Hope my concentration gets back when classes start. Need a healthy body and mind to beat the semester stress. And I'm even planning to be a student assistant again, so more load! Haha, I'll go kill my self real slow.
*wrist-cutting EMO mode ON*
The heart. Kinda sensitive. I never felt really confused about my feelings before. It seems that the fortified lock that I use to keep these uncontrollable feelings is not enough to stop this impending burst of emotions. I dunno. I never experienced what people call 'love', but somehow, irrational thoughts flood my submissive self. You. When time comes that the lock can no longer withstand this chaos, I will pave way and do my best so that each fragments of this feeling will reach your heart.
*wrist-cutting EMO mode OFF*

I didn't get to any beaches (that sounds dirty) this vacation. I was invited by some relative once, but I refused, because I found those kind of outings, boring. Glad I attended two  (probably will be three) conventions this vacation. The smell of sweat, foam rubber, and spray paint is so much better for feeding my soul than fresh breeze from the mountains or lively gust from the beach.


Human Relations Department
Status quo. On family. Nothing's really changed. Indifference remains. Though we're still one big happy family. Most especially when Baby Rianne was born! New life means new hope to me. She brought vitality to us.
Dynamic. On friends. Met new friends. Talk to them mostly online though. (And some of them who calls me UKE, stop it for God's sake!) But em losing contacts to old ones. Some are really mad at me. (I met one personally, and she almost punched me for not having a cellphone.) Now come to think of it, I think I'm going to break my "No Cellphone Legacy" already. It's been almost a year since the lost of my cellphone, and now I'm deciding to have a new one. And Kej is no picky on cellphones. I can even have a 3310 for a reasonable price. (P200 lol)

Lost. On special persons. Refer to wrist cutting EMO mode above.


Money Matters and Miscellaneous and my Messed-Up Mind are Random

Yeah, no money sucks. No summer job sucks. Being rejected for three times for summer job sucks. People responsible for Kej being rejected on the applications for three times sucks. No money sucks!!!!

I lost some of my favorite t-shirts. I can't find them. Now I will be doomed when classes starts! Why? HINT: UP Los Banos doesn't require uniform.

J-music floods my vacation soul trip. Em introduced to more bands. (e.g. Onmyouza, Aqua Timez, Chatmonchy) See, I also planned to learn to play any instruments during summer, but seriously, I don't have the patience and the talent maybe. So I just stick to my passion: listening and appreciating music. That's why I tried to expand my love for modern music. More J-music and OPM. It seems like the OPM scene is not doing well these days though. (Urbandub is the only strong remaining force in the mainstream.)

Though I'd love to make this my diary, this blog's getting really long and incoherent, so I'd cut it here. No one would even want to read this. So there. Kej's waiting for a better tomorrow...

I'm going to tag 5 random people using my equipment-type innocence, Randomizer! Innocence, activate!

A SATURDAY
A mission-filled day for me and the rest
of SKRAM V; 'twas Ozine Fest 2008 Day 1! The day started with me being a destructor of plans, well, kinda... The call time should be 8:30-9am at Shal's house; but I arrived at GC (the 2nd waypoint) at 11:30am. And another bastard named Vernie came at past 12!! Punctuality is a BETCH!

The venue was SM Megamall Mega
Trade Hall, and everyone was eager to fulfill their respective missions. The main mission of each was to enjoy Ozine Fest to the fullest, but each one has his own side quest. Seemed like Rumel tried to complete his side quest and was gone from the scene early. Shal did costrip that day, and Maki hanged-out with his friends. I dunno about Maki and Shal, but they seemed quite satisfied after the day ended. Vernie enjoyed the plethora of yaoi madness during the event. I did try my best to complete my side quest, but decided to just sit my ass for the rest of the day and watched the group cosplays and other performances. (And literally played with Shal's digicam.) Rumel returned before we went home and seems like he finished his mission first among SKRAM V peeps.

A SUNDAY

Ozine Fest 2008 Day 2. I purposedly tried to be a BETCH again to come late on the prescribed meeting time. But after Shal pm'ed me that the registration for the individual cosplay will end at 1:30pm, I snapped out of my evil plan and tried to come there (GC) as fast as I could. But Shal already left so he can register and I went to Mega with Rumel. Maki decided not to go; and Vernie had yaoi hang-over so he was not present, too.


Shal cosplayed as Tobi, and Rumel was just pretty laid back on that day. I was
the ultimate "slave of the day", "the official p****grapher", and "the idiot of the day." But unexpectedly, I seemed to reach my goal to finish my side quest. Weird, but sometimes rare items came to haunt the moment you least expected it to. Well, though it seemed like a mission complete to me, something kinda bothered me before the day ends. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the whole day: the amazing cosplays; the futile attempt for cosplay photography; meeting strange people and (unexpected Pokemons); and some other unexplainable stuff. Shal felt really conceited about his cosplay (and the "other thing" that happened that day); Rumel looked ok; I'm having melancholic thoughts; Maki wasn't there; so was Vernie (and Lex..XD).


AN OMGWTFBBQ! DAY

Just I thought the Sunday was finished; I wasn't able to sleep early and ended up staying awake up to 5am (Monday). The mindless chatting with two people: a stooopid old classmate and some vegetable, kept me awake up until I heard the chickens. I was also so eager to download the first episode of Code Geass R2, but ended up to sleepy to watch it and just postponed it.

After I woke up, checked my e-mail, ate vigorously, and took a bath, I went to SKRAM V meeting at Maki's house to talk about the cosplay aftermath and
play DotA afterwards. But while we're having our food trip during the afternoon, a mysterious entity named "Sandara Park" showed at the front of Maki's gate...

<*one-winged angel (sephiroth's theme) plays*> (no, really, i just don't know html.. XD)

...She begged for food, so I gave her the almost empty bag of Richie™. Then she asked for "panulak", but then told her that we had nothing left. Then, the she delivered the infamous line: "Hoy pogi, thank you ha!" Everyone was really freaked out! Then she said another line, but almost unhearable, something like: "Hoy kayo, tayo!" But for Rumel it sounded like, "Hoy, dattebayo!" WTF?! I really can't tell whom she reffering to (the pogi one.) But the 20% chance that each of us can be that guy really gave me the creeps. And hell, how can I watch/read Naruto now?! Moreover, SKRAM V bastards kept talking on the matter and some other issues about me, so I was like the "pawn for the day." So to release my anger and frustration, I got to be the "playmaker" on both DotA games that we played afterwards. Thanks Stygwyr and Puck. Bow!

JUST ANOTHER DAY
Well, Tuesday is just another day. Though me and Vernie decided to inquire at Enchanted Kingdom for application of possibly a summer job.

Oha-lucky! My monthly monologue! =D Oh how I love talking to myself...

Ep.1
This past weeks, I've been bothered by a number of, well, problems. And I needed a quick mind, to think like the wind, and ended up...

Problem # 1: Practicum Dilemma
Last month, my classmates were preparing bigtime for the upcoming practicum this summer. Because my mind was fluttering away slowly, everyday, that time, I couldn't decide if I would go for it or not...And I even attended a job fair (without any resume xD) that was held in our college to somehow influence me so I caould decide. Would I take the practicum course this summer?

Pros:

- I can finish a bothersome task quite early on.
- Fresh work on summer, a change from tedious classes.
- I can have money, in case the company offers.
- I can a take a topic early on, so I won't ran out of ideas if I delay the course.

Cons:
- I can't start my so-called "REVOLUTION" this summer. (Don't ask me about this! xD)

- I have to spend more money if the site is too far from home.

Decision:
Well, I didn't take it. Actually, the "last minute" for submitting the requirements and stuff, I decided that I would take the course, but realized that I should just take it easy, meaning next time. (I really didn't contact any companies. >_<) I can even get ideas from my classmates who are ahead of me... (Okay, I don't really used my thinking caps on this; I used my instinct.)

Problem # 2: The Job Offer

Though this is still quite uncertain and the details are not yet clear, I'm really anxious about this. It's a job offer from my tita in Denmark. She said a shipping company back there needs a lot of workers and employees, specifically engineers. Tita said she'll give the details later, and she'll find a way for me to get a job there. Promising huh?

No Pro/Cons Analysis:
Since there's insufficient data so far, I think I''ll jus t have to wait. I'm quite surprised myself for thinking ahead for my future plans; or maybe I'm just too tired...

Problem # 3: Cosplay Time!!
Oh shi~! A lot of anime conventions are coming soon, but I still can't decide who to cosplay!! I'm choosing from about four characters, though I would want to cosplay all of them soon. I'm using total cost as a factor to choose my next cosplay. But I don't want to rush things 'cause it may turn into a disaster. More like, I can't tell if I'm going to cosplay soon or just postpone it and do a better, well-prepared, and decent looking cosplay. And the most annoying factor that holds me back from cosplaying: tight budget. Really, I'm in near bankruptcy right now. (And I still want to do cosplay. That's what I call "passion"... =P). Think I would postpone my cosplay, from the planned date April to May?

Pros:
- Less worries for these coming weeks; can concentrate more on exams. LOL
- My purse, if it still exist, will be so happy!
- More time for preparation, much much better-looking cosplay!

Cons:
- But I do want to cosplay on April!
- And cosplaying is not just about costume, right?!
- I don't want to be a LURKER again!!! (Now I'm losing my reasoning abilities...)

Decision:
I'd say I'll postpone it. I'll work hard for my next cosplay! =D But then, I can be easily tricked...

Problem # 4: The Unexplained "REVOLUTION"
Though I love to have monologues every now and then and post it on my blog, I still have some things about me and my goals that are needed to be kept as secrets. (The hell I'm posting this if it's a secret!) It's the afore-mentioned "REVOLUTION", which consists of short-term goals that connects the shards of my broken ego; the strings that wind to form my lines of my unparalleled dreams; and the rush of bursting emotions that I must stabilize. OMGWTFYGQDDH@#&*^?!! Am I going insane?!!


Ep.2
And YES! The semester is about to end, so I need to tolerate, for things will turn out good soon, hopefully...

Blog EntryA Sea of LCL (02.2008) - 1Feb 1, '08 3:31 AM
for everyone
Okay, this has nothing to do with Evangelion. Well, maybe a little bit... I'm pondering about tedious events this past month of January. And it seems like February will be tedious as well... Maybe this is the sign of the incoming Third Impact... Okay, I'll stop these using Evangelion terminology for this nonsense blog... It just so happen that I have some free time before everything comes back to normal again. :D January, January, January...

The start of the year is annoying. I didn't finish one of my school projects because it's quite complicated and I was still in freaking vacation mode (I was lazy, that's it!)

I've been having a lot of exams and reports, like usual. It took me a week to fully escape vacation mode and concentrate on my academics

I was bashed a couple of times regarding my unreasonable inactivity (and HUGE financial accountabilities) in my school organizations by my orgmates. I can't blame them, but now I'm trying my best to compensate.

This is quite good. I participated in an anime quiz contest on our school. Me and my classmate won the third place. So I'm bragging about this? No, because my mighty pride told me that we can win the first place. The quiz contest is all about Death Note! And crap, I read only the DN manga, and that was more than a year ago. I hadn't watched any of the anime episodes and both of the live-action movies, so we had a disadvantage. If it's only Naruto or any other anime. (I won last year in the Naruto quiz con, myself composing the whole team and I'm really conceited!!!) Oh well, P250 ain't bad.

I attended a seminar sponsored by UP Soma Soshiki. It's an 8-hour tutorial by the artists and writers of Mangaholix. They are really good, and I've learned a lot from them. The problem is, even though I have the zest to make my fanarts, doujin, and other art stuff, my academics and laziness gets in the way. So I had had no training whatsoever. And I want output! OUTPUT!

I spent my free time this January doing nothing but browsing devArt, reading manga, and watching anime. I had a rerun of NGEvangelion episodes, so to explain this change of psyche of mine. The Eva hype is so much greater for me now than in my elementary days when I first watched the series and high school days when I saw the epic The End of Evangelion. Now I became a HUGER fan, I'm more obssessed with Ayanami rei, and I became a more mentally-unstable descendant of Lilith.

Our TV is suffering a major defect. The picture is so NOT good, so I haven't watched a lot last month. Is Naruto Shippuuden now airing  on Channel 2? Hmm...

I suppose I'll be doing a monthly update of my blog here in Multiply and in deviantArt. This will be the format: Title (Month.Year) - MonthBlog#. Then random pictures but of similar theme. Blog :3. And I almost completely abandoned my stupid Friendster Account. And I hadn't win at DotA yet the past month, so I stopped playing for a while. I'm blabbering random stuff again. And I love talking to myself.

Now February, February, February... Hmm, someone's insisting me to buy flowers from him and give it to someone I..uhh, like. But come on, anyone think I have money for roses? And Chinese New Year is coming. Year of the Rat? I don't know what to expect. I'm blabbering random stuff again. And I love talking to myself...

Okay, here's part two! So it's about my life on the latter half of the year... Though there's a lot of event this time, there's fewer pictures here... Who cares anyway? It's still my ugly mug that is on (not all) these supposedly random pics! So, my journey to nowhere continues...


1. SKRAM V Churva pics (3 photos, courtesy of Maki)

- Yeah, the first 3 pics are filthy. We are self-centered SKRAM V (Shalnark/Kej/Rumel/Alex/Maki/Vernie). Those are our shadows; the next one is our hideout a ala Hueco Mundo; and me eating in a bowl outside our house near the manukan of my tito...

2. World Cyber Games/ Animax Convention - July (5 photos, courtesy of katsumi)

- Well, since the convention is kinda boring, we just kicked some gaming-asses and heed our way to the WCG as the Philippine representative for DotA... *continues daydreaming* (there's no DotA competition in WCG anyway)

3. Multiplexer finals - July (7 photos, courtesy of Seles pips)

- We were havung fun here. We can't show the other pics... XP

4. MakBan Trip - Sept. (2 photos, courtesy of Drew)

- We we're not able to take much pictures during our field trip because we were afraid that the geothermal plant will explode if exposed to digital camera flashes... (I'm a complete liar) So we took a few shots with the hard hats on to have that "engineer-look"

5. InSOMAnia - Sept (4 photos, fr Alex/Gzel)

- Yeah, we just took pics of us getting eliminated in the Tekken Tournament. We did enter the semis, though... And we caught some gold fish... (Please don't ask what's the connection...)

6. Skram V on EK - Nov (15 photos, courtesy of shalnark)

- Okay, at least I love the Space Shuttle... And someone I knew hates the Flying Fiesta... Tsk tsk..

7. Habitat For Humanity in Pasig - Nov (8 photos, courtesy of shaknark courtesy of philotakusociety) ^_^

- Construction work sure is hard. So is wire-twisting... xD

8. Orientation (9 photos, courtesy of shin-nee)

- One of the two orientation in the year, we really had a lot of newcomers to the organization... I gotta know them more...

9. Hataw Hanep Hero 2007 - Dec (17 photos, courtesy of Maki)

- Actually, we have a lot of pics here, but I posted only a few. Thanks Maki for capturing my faces together with great cosplayers! Your phone rocks! xP And yeah, you know where to buy tickets whenever you go to such events, so you won't look like noobs...

10. Skram V Year-Ender Swimming/ Reunion Sana/ Anong Nangyari - Dec. (5 courtesy of shalnark, I think...)

- This is stupid, I had no good picture in here... Maybe that's my punishment for using the videoke too much...


And that's about it! I have high hopes for 2008! May we all have wealth, luck, fame, and charming looks this Year of the Rat! ^o^


I'm Kej, and I'd like to leave a memory of the wholesome year of 2007! This past year, I've experienced a lot of ups-and-downs, but here I am, still alive and kickin'! I'd like to upload random pics, but it seems my randomness had me uploading pics in almost chronological order, and handpicked those that feature my ugly mug. xD Basically, these are pics from anime conventions and org activities of the year. Do note: THESE PICS ARE NOT MINE. Yep, because I don't have a freakin' camera (or phone)! So, I'll try my best to give credits to those who captured these pics. The photos in the part one of my 2007 journey to nowhere include:

1. PSICOM Convention 2007 - Jan. (25 photos, courtesy of Alex - Gzel's Camera)

- My first time to cosplay! I'm so very happy here... My tears washed away my eyeliner... Ulquiorra, you're EMO! Rumel seems to enjoy bringing around that huge Kaigetsu...

2. Random Iskul Shots - Jan-Feb (3 photos, courtesy of random people xD)

- We hate taking pictures at our EE building. Camera flashes can cause unwanted static electricity and can make the walls ignite. Yes, believe me... And we brag each time we wear those batch shirt, and the shirt's design is mine! ;-)

3. Eng Meet 07 and other org activitie. - Feb (16 photos, courtesy of SELES dudes)

- I don't have enough pics and I'm so inactive that time. And there's no cheering pics?!

4. Alumni Homecoming - Feb. (9 photos courtesy of... kanino to?)

- It's 70's theme, and we look like the Beatles! (wrong timeline?) And the girls, we call them "Headband girls.." I wore a ladies pants (i dunno how it's called) Haha!

5. OZINE Fest 2007 - Mar. (30 pics, from Alex/Gzel again, and some pics from shalnark's phone and I think there are other pics from other people... )

- I cosplayed again, but same character... This one's tiring, yet satisfying... Maki thought he won the individual cosplay category... xD

6. Mangaholix MangaMania - May (16 photos, fr. Alex/Gzel)

- Yeah, this is the convention where we stroll around MoA, then looked around the convention venue, sat, sat some more, slept, watched the first five people on the catwalk, then went home, while singing SREI Hymn in van. No kidding... >_<




So that's it for now.. yup, there's part two, because I'm lazy. If you like the photos, freely grab them. Of course you don't like them! XP

Blog EntryThe Good, The Bad, and The Ugly (Humpa!)Nov 18, '07 10:33 PM
for everyone
The Good:

Not really that good; actually, it's kinda weird. Today's the day of the celebration for me being 2 decades old. And to my surprise, a lot of people in los banos greeted me in school, umaga pa lang yun. Never been greeted by almost every EE student i know since my last birthdays. Even in high school, wala masyadong bumabati. On top of that, last night,about 15 people greeted me thru text, and they texted on my sister's number! (How'd they know it?!?)They didn't even included their names, and i don't have them in my phonebook. Thank you weirdos, anyway. XD Maybe people have much better memory now?! But hey, about three of those who greeted me early this morning, said "belated happy birthday"! Hey pokemons, my birthday is today! LOLz

Of course, it's confirmed that i passed EE 12!! Yay!!

The Bad:

This is REALLY bad. I went to DOST office and found out that my scholarship is terminated. WTF?! I've tried hard to pass that damn subject and this is what i get?? Our regional director said that he himself recommends to give back my scholarship but the peeps from the main office didn't want to. He said those guys are very unpredictable; the verdicts always depends on their mood. So what i'm going to do is i should give a reconsideration letter (again) a la Maalaala Mo Kaya. If it is approved, then i'll be P15000 richer; if not, then i'll be penniless as always. Oh man, it's like i'm getting another removal exam but in different format...

The Ugly:

My Warlock is on Rumel's Sisi List?! I won't accept it! I'll show you pokemons that i can do better! I can do better than Shalnark's Venomancer na rekta Aghanims! Humpa!
