Number One

I consider myself lucky for having a time for blogging. I'm hungry and quite mentally exhausted because brainstorming in Design5 consumed up a lot of my energy. Anyway, I want to tell that I'm on a certain experiment. I don't know how would I call it but it's mainly about self-assestment to know where I'm at my best.
There are a lot of things to be considered in the design of hospital since we are required to have it disaster-prepared, meaning it could resist the natural disasters like typhoon, EARTHQUAKE and others you can associate with the word 'disaster' (?).
Now, we are headed to presenting a site plan, massing (conceptual) and research, all of which are to be presented in Powerpoint.
And for your information, this plate is a competition plate. And not only that, this is also a NATIONAL competition plate. That bothers me a lot. I am ambitious, I know that. For me it's not enough to dream of being our professors TOP 5 or UST College of Architecture's TOP2. I want our group to be the NO. 1 in the Philippines!


P.S. Lady Gaga has a weird sense of fashion statement. A long, straight blond hair and a fake lavender hair on top of it that looks like a scoop of ube ice cream resting on her head? What do ya think? ART for IDENTITY'S sake! (I still like her, though...)

Don't Forget About Her

I wonder why Farrah Fawcett's death isn't much talked about. I know for a fact that her death collides with Michael Jackson's but that is not enough reason for not reporting her last minutes on earth even if she's already inside her coffin- beneath the gorund .

Many people from different parts of the world are giving tribute to MJ's death, e.g., a restaurant having cuisines named after him, dancing his famous step 'moonwalk', singing all of his songs in TV, playing his hit songs over millions of radio stations, and a whole lot more.

Farrah, for those who don't know her, is the star of Charlie's Angels- a TV series that began in the 1970's. I feel sympathy for her and for her family. For nearly 3 years, she struggled to fight her disease, the anal cancer, but unfortunately lost it. She died at the age of 62.

Why do I say these things? I am not her relative, friend or whatsoever. I just reported about the story 'Kalihi in Farrah' which shows how popular she was and how women (and gays) coveted her hairstyle, looks and fashion statement. That's how I came to know her (because my mother was not the type of person who would tell me everything about the past Hollywood actors and actresses). And I find her beautiful and sexy, even if she had no big breasts. Funny to hear myself saying this but it's true. She still pretty in her 60's, huh...

I became a fan of hers when I watched the documentary about her battle against cancer,even if she wasn't able to win. I saw the courage in her eyes (that's not literal because she used to wear her shades). One instance is that when she convinced the doctors (just after her operation in Germany) to let her go to her hometown in L.A (such a stubborn little girl!). She said on her documentary having a cancer like that had a purpose. Yes, it had and it has!

So whereever you are Farrah, this is for you....

Sleep Attack!

I felt so tired today that my brain wasn't functioning well. I think the fluids that needed to flow into it resisted to go up because they also lacked the energy to do so....
I felt so 'malas' today because I saw my 'kaaway' who would also use the elevator. Gosh! I should have used stair for my own sake and for peace's sake!
I really abhor this guy who I need to bear with for the remaining three years! It seems so long... What I did is I prayed that I wouldn't explode with anger because everytime I see him, sure as hell, it will be a bad day!

We went to our room and I still felt sleepy but I tried my best not to show it. It was so cold in there; since I had no jacket, I felt I need to get to the rest room. I was about to stand up when our professor called my name. I was a bit shocked because I wasn't listening that much to what he was saying. I raised my hand (he was trying to find me) expecting his question to be just a short one.

And all I can remember was that he kept asking me questions (much like a machine gun) which seemed easy but my brain couldn't grasp (my brain was like a 'sobrang bagal mag-load na computer'). And my classmates throw me some kind of gaze like 'hey, girl, are you out of your mind?' which added to the pressure. The scene is not embarassing but I don't want this to be part of my memory- if I could only throw things like this and leave only those that are pleasing to me, I would have done that a long time ago!
Anyway, the same process- I shall act like nothing happened the day before.

OMG!

I've seen several men who danced the 'Single Ladies' step but watching Joe Jonas, it's really odd. In fact, seeing him with that outfit is nuts!

In the video, Joe was hesitant to do it but his brother Nick and Kevin said he must do it for their fans. He certainly had a hard time to decide on that ridiculous move because, honestly, 'matigas ang katawan nya'!

I think they made the video to tell the public (or to catch their attention) that they will release their fourth studio album entitled 'Lines, Vines and Trying Times' on June 16.

Go For Adam Lambert!

Hurrey for Adam!

Boo for Kris!

Yeah, that's right- I am giving my all out support for Adam Lambert. Although I am not that interested to this season of American Idol compared to last season, I still want to give my bet.

Adam puts 'artistry'(like what Kara use to say) in every song that he sings and he's also a 'true genius' according to Kara, so I have my two hands clapping and 'bumping' for him.

Kris Allen for me is a good performer but not enough to make me shout and jump on my seat. He's BORING and too typical. I believe that Danny was eliminated because Kris got more of the looks than style.

Yeah, Kris is cute but let's face the fact that in American Idol, we're not searching for good-looking person but a talented person. And whoever says that Adam is not cute, he/she better go to EO (Executive Optical).

May Update Kahit Papano

Walang mai-blog kapag vacation because the same thing happens each day- gising sa umaga pero hindi muna babangon sa kama (dahil magde-daydream pa 'ko), inom ng kape at kain ng pan de sal, makikinig ng radio na naka-tune in sa favorite radio station namin-WRR 101.9, manonood ng TV dahil tapos na ang segment ng favorite DJ ko na si DJ Toni, manonood ng Pilipinas, GAME KNB?, tapos kain ng lunch, tapos tulog,etc.,etc. Don't ask me kung ano yung 'etc.'- basta boring yun.

...kaya naman wala akong mai-blog na maganda.

May bago naman kahit papano- I'm busy reading a book entitled 'Simplify' by Bo Sanchez- a Filipino writer. Dahil dun, medyo napapaisip na rin ako kung ano ba talaga ang life-dreams ko, mission ko sa buhay and kung ano ba talaga ang magpapasaya sa 'kin. Meron din ako natutunan- 'Satisfaction is not having what you want but wanting what you already have.' I also learned na most of the real millionaires have maliit na bahay or house na madaling i-maintain, lumang model ng kotse and only one spouse (you know, walang kabit, walang divorce). One thing pa is 'All human desire never quits on you.' dahil sabi ng author, which I believe is right, 'wag daw tayo maniwala sa phrase na 'to: 'After this, I will be satisfied.'

So yun; kahit wala ako masyadong nai-blog eh pinilit ko pa rin na gawin kasi -84.06% ang percentage ng change sa blog ko sabi sa Google Analytics ko. Ang sad naman nun kasi may record pa ako na 22 visits last April 22- nakakainis kasi nawala. Hindo ko rin alam kung saan na napunta yung Map Overlay ko na next na pinaka-green sa Philippines- ang Romania- whaaaa ang dami ko pa naman visitors galing dun!

Babush!

*I want to tell everybody na favorite ko si DJ Toni of WRR101.9 kasi I like her voice and the way she laugh. Yung tawa nya kasi is, sabi ni DJ R-Nold Rey, parang nanalo sa mahjong. Hahaha.
I encourage everyone na mag-tune in sa nasabing station every 5AM-9AM.

Anoop- A Hairstrand Away To Saying 'Goodbye'

I wasn't satisfied with Anoop's performance last week on American Idol. His version of Usher's song was good but not great- it didn't make the audience move. That's why I wasn't upset when he sat on one of the stools there in the left part of the stage but I was glad he didn't left A.I.

This week,if he can't make the song his and if he will not put 'artistry' in his song (as what Kara said), and performance as well,I think, it will trigger to his elimination.

I am also grateful for those who supported Anoop- let's keep doing so.
