Life is still good...

Riding a PUJ home, i can hear the conversation of two elderly people in front of me. (I wasnt eavesdropping, they were talking right in front.. you cant help it.)

Anyhow, they were talking about someone who wanted to commit suicide because of the problems that someone encountered. And they find it shallow, because it's not actually a solution to the problem, and all that.

The guy asked the 'suicidal freak' "is that your solution?, do you think you would solve it like that? you would still lose". And the 'suicidal freak' would drone on and on about his work.. family. The guy told him "you entered that problem, you must learn how to get out of it. and that is not by trying to kill yourself. you are not the only one who has a problem. everyone has."

(my opinion)
Yes. Everyone has problems/stresses in life, but we all have different ways of dealing with it. Some foolish others are wise.

Foolish way of dealing it, is drinking. Yes, i find it foolish. (No offense meant). If you resort to drinking, because you have a big big problem... and you wanna drown yourself with liquor/alcohol.. do you think the next day your problem would be solved? No. it won't. Come to think of it... it's actually a waste of time. (aside from the fact that it adds stress in your body/health). Same goes to smoking. Specially the "suicide" thing. Yes, everyone thinks about that whenever everything goes wrong. Not the way we wanted it to happen. And you think your dreams would go tumbling down.. yada yada. If you do them all the time.. i dont think you wont solve any problems. It adds bigger problems.

So how do you solve your problems?

By diverting your thoughts to "solutions". Divert your thoughts.. you always think about your problem... everyday.. every waking day of your life. So you get more problems. What if you focus yourself to the "solution" instead of the "problem" itself?
Face your problems.. but do not be too consumed by it. Work on it. Solve it.
Don't be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.

We need problems/obstacles/mistakes, anything that stresses us out to Learn. Sometimes we need to learn the hard way, if we keep making that mistake over and over again. If you cannot perfect that mistake it will haunt you, until you learn.

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” - Martin Luther

But always remember.. do not forget to laugh. you need them too. Dont drown yourself with grief/sorrow... engulf yourself with laughter and joy. Even though there are problems... while trying to solve it.. laugh.. and smile. That's Life. Live it.. while it lasts.

Btw. Be Blessed Darlene.. and have a happy trip to BAGUIO! Love you =)

Woot! Woot!

Another new theme!!
Haha! This one is not a "fairytale".
When i showed my mom my first theme, (the pink one) she asked about my quote there.
The one with "is my imagination running away"(it was a song.. i like so much.) and mom is so keen about what quote you are using and she said "watch your words anak..".



So, since then i wanted to change my theme right away. (Aside from the fact i got tired of the uber pinky color)
But i cant since im making my project (and i just ran out of ink. *rawr*).
And today i did because im burning soo many cd's and it is taking so long.
Instead of doing nothing i decided to change the look and feel of my blog.. and TAADAAA!!

Sorry, its messy! Hehe but i like it as it is. Because if you read closely to the quotes i edited there (thanks to papemelrotti), they are my favorites and they have nice meanings about happiness, loving and serving...

It's Been Awhile..

I've been so busy, because exams were coming up and i wanted so much to finish some of my projects so i dont have to think about so many projects when the time comes. And now, exams are over i can finally blog! But not totally though.

Ever since last saturday, i soo much wanted to share about what i learned from our family gathering. The fathers were doing all the talking and one of them shared about the difference of Maturity and the opposite, the "immature".

He gave a great provocation to all the family members who can see themselves as the "immature" ones. He said an immature person, obviously is like a kid. When you were younger, you used to prepare yourself and you walk wherever you wished. On the other hand, a mature person just stretches his hands and wait for someone to prepare him/her (and i dont mean it literally, ok? To those who have eyes let them see, and to those who have ears let them hear.In short, READ BETWEEN THE LINES) and let that someone lead you to where you do not want to go. (refer to John Chapter 21 in the Bible.)

The above thought may seem confusing, but it brings light to what we are doing. It means, you have your own free will when you were younger, and is only concerned of yourself (immature), but you cant say that you are "mature" if you havent done any following. (I remember a line in the movie Drumline "You cannot Lead if you do not learn how to follow." Such simple words, but it has wisdom in it.) And usually when you follow "someone" specially a mentor or your father, it is hard, specially if they lead you to a place where you do not want to go. But that place, you dont know is the place where you should be, to find happiness and fulfillment. (Now, if you are consumed by the "earthly" things that surrounds you, you wouldnt understand a thing I'm saying.. so dont bother.) I know to most of you, this doesn't make sense. But to some, this would make sense. :) Just wanted to share this.

Anyhow, last sunday me and my parents watched 24 season 4(Courtesy of dwinny) we finished the series where we left of last last sunday. My Dad and Mom enjoyed the whole thing. And me too. The ending was sad though, and would make you wanna look forward for the next season. *sigh* My favorite part there was when Clowie went on the "field", which is soo un-Clowie-like. Coz she is mostly the techie girl and she is always in the headquarters. Anyhow, since one of the men of Marwan (the terrorist) came to assasinate them, Clowie managed to escape and locked herself and the other girl (the gf of a terrorist member) in a bulletproof car. And the terrorist keep shooting at them. Clowie called CTU, for backup and she was told where to get the extra gun inside the car (they have it, for emergencies). And then, when Clowie got hold of the gun she shot the terrorist (ratatatatatatatatat it was a machine gun i guess.) endlessly. That was my fave part. Hehe *go Clowie!*

I am saddened by Edgar's mom, Edgar tried to save her (from the nuclear meltdown) but her mom was left behind by the evacuees. *sigh* *huhuhuhu*

And i am annoyed by that selfish PRESIDENT of theirs! LOGAN!!! rawrrr! He is sooo pathetic. Really. If his thoughts are not of himself, it's the politics. It is good to think about your friendship with other countries but you have to analyze the sitch. Anyhow... the season was great!

<3 24 haha! :)

Life is Good... if you follow the Universal Rules


I ate a YELLOW WATERMELON yesterday.

I was watching the news awhile ago, and natural calamities are killing a lot of people lately. Not just here in the Philippines but also in a lot of different countries.

I was watching about President GMA's stand about evacuating the OFW's in Lebanon and people against her are again talking about if they have enough budget.. blah blah. What is more important LIVES or MONEY? Before you think about MONEY you think about what you can do FIRST, like SERVING PEOPLE for example. It is the ONLY JUST USE OF POWER, SERVING PEOPLE, and that is what Pres. GMA is trying to do, little by little. And they don't see it, because they always see the BAD instead of the GOOD. That's why they will never be succesfull, NEVER. Why are they so against a president, who did nothing but thought about the lives of the pinoys in Lebanon? If GMA does something, they are always behind her back and they always try to see the bad thing about anything that GMA does that is good.

I am not for her nor against her. She is the president of this country, and she needs respect, just like EVERYONE would want to be respected if they are in her position. Do you think other countries would respect US, if they see we dont respect the PRESIDENT? People always blurb about other countries not respecting them, how can they respect us, if we cant respect our leader ourselves?

And one more thing, those people who are always against her, is NOT DOING ANYTHING TO MAKE THIS COUNTRY BETTER!!! At least, even if they said she is being a hypocrite, she is doing something about our country, whereas those people who rally and protest about her IS DOING NOTHING! BUT go OUT IN THE SUN, and protest about this and that, making our country look worse.. instead of going out and making money and being PRODUCTIVE.

And there is nothing wrong with Pres. GMA's SONA. It was a good vision for the future. Why do they always worry about BUDGET?? Who cares about the BUDGET!

Benjamin Diokno, a former budget secretary, said what Ms Arroyo “has failed to address, time and time again, are the issues that block this country’s growth: Corruption, violence, political stability, rule of law and population growth.”

Why should Pres. Arroyo focus on something we all do not want to happen? Yes, it does happen, but why do we have to focus on something that we do not want, when we can focus on something we would WANT. That's why we get more of "what we do not want" because that is what we are focusing. We focus too much on the PROBLEM, that the SOLUTION was not taken care of.

Tobias(bishop), who earlier admitted to providing sanctuary to a troubled military mutineer, cited massive unemployment and underemployment, heavy debt servicing, and the supposed absence of real economic development.

Tobias said the government was again trying to paint a bright picture by claiming that only 11 percent (4 million to 5 million people) of the labor force was unemployed.

In reality, he said the figure was 16 percent of a potential labor force of 40 million Filipinos.

Well, at least PGMA is trying to paint a bright picture, while Bishop Tobias splashes black and white over the scenerio...

I agree with Davao del Norte Vice Gov. Anthony del Rosario (btw, he is a businessman, so he gets the drill).

"Critics are saying that her plans could hardly be achieved until the end of her term on 2010. Of course, all those she planned may not be completed but what is important is that whoever seats as the next leader would know where to start." says del rosario.

He agreed that the president laid on the table a clear and detailed blueprint of nation-building where everyone is given a role to play. Del Rosario expects bitter reaction from the opposition such as the issue on the source of the money to fund those projects. However, he stands by the claim of the president that the effort should come from all sectors of the society including the local government units, the private sector, and funding agencies.

Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye stated that the government has the funds to jumpstart implementation and continuity will be guaranteed by a balance of domestic resources and prudent loans that will not cause a burden on the rising generations but lift the country from the oppression of abject poverty.

Meanwhile, del Rosario observed along with a number of Mindanaoans that PGMA's SONA mentioned less about her plans for Mindanao as compared with the projects for the other mega regions.

" She might not have mentioned all of her plans for Mindanao. But we'll just see later how PGMA would help this mega region. Let's give her a chance to prove her plans for the country", he explained.

However, he too admitted that it is not just the president's burden but the whole country's responsibility as well.

I sooo agree with del Rosario. At least there are still people who are sane, and concerned about the nation and no personal agendas. THINK POSITIVE, but do not be blinded also by what is happening, and do something about it, instead of ranting and raving. Enough said.

I am sorry.. i really just have to state my opinions. GO PRES. GLORIA! You can do it. Let the DOGS BARK, but the CARAVAN must move on! BE BLESSED!

Back from Iligan (Happy Birthday Paolo)


As most of you know, Paolo(my brother) is studying in Iligan along with our cousin Dave.

Paolo is a great example to US in the family. How he obeyed in staying in Iligan to study, away from us. It is also a great process and challenge to my parents, me and Darlene. If it is a process to us, how much more Paolo? I miss the little kid.. who would come in and out of my room, and bug me to use the PC and all that *sigh*

I am so amazed.. how God, is processing the NEXT generation, since most of the process are centered on the next gen(young uns). I know, that God is preparing us FOR SOMETHING BIG. And i am doing everything to do whatever HE willed me to do. And what happens and oppurtunities or processes.. or revealings that would arise.. i am sure.. GOD has a plan. Everything happens for a reason.. and that is something i always try to remind myself, and that everyone should be reminded by that too. Be it good or bad. If it is bad, try to see everything in a good way.. it works out better that way, and you get to understand the whole thing. You don't get bitter instead you get stronger.

Anyhow, we visited Paolo in Iligan, since it is his 11th birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAOLO!

We were supposed to leave by (july 28 friday)12noon but we got delayed, since Tay Edwin re-registered the car that we're going to use for travelling. And LTO promised to release it early that day, but as usual LTO is getting it's usual "lazy" attitude.. it was delayed. We waited and waited at SPS, good thing the nutrition month presentation kept me entertained, the whole time. By the time it reached 4pm we were asked to go ahead and take the bus. So 8 of us proceeded to the terminal. The next bus that is bound for CDO, would leave by 7-8pm. So we waited there, in the meantime we were also hoping that the LTO would approve the registration. But then by 6pm my mom did not allow me and my sister to go ride the bus without Ate rhea because they are the ones who knows the way to Iligan. So, since it's getting late we decided to wait for Tay Edwin's service(as to when it would be released, we do not know.)

Since everyone was tired and hungry *rawr*. We ate at SM (mom's treat). And boy were we FULL and stuffed. We just greeted Paolo a happy birthday. But while we were eating, Tay Edwin announced... *drum roll* that it was finally registered! *woot* And that we are leaving by 3am(saturday). Everyone got elated again. Me and my sister decided it's better that we sleep at Tay Edwin's place. SO that's what we did.

And we left by 3:30am. Ate some bread and scrambled eggs coupled with apples. There were 15 of us all in all. Tay Edwin, Nay Marly, Ate Kai, Papo, Me, Darlene, Maranatha, Kya gary, Ate Rea, Jethro, LJ, Cj, Tay Bong, Nico, and Kuya Janman. It was foggy along the way to Buda.


Me and Darl at the L300 *brrr cold*

We stopped over at some place (i forgot the name), they sell Carabao's Milk.. and we took turns having a picture with the horse horsey!


Me and Darl =)

The kids were all excited and they keep asking "Are we there yet?". We reached Iligan by 12:30 noon. Everyone was soo hungry.. and we ate! Haha finally.. REAL FOOD after the travel.



After a few while we left for Timuga Resort. (Ill post pics.) We played "anak-anakay" in the water. And then Nay Marly joined us too.


That's Paolo, Papo and CJ beside the pool :)




Me and Paolo after the pool fun! =)


By the time we were home, we were all tired and everyone wants to sleep. The rest of the group were playing cards while waiting for the food. The others slept and rested (im one of them hehe..) When we woke up by 7pm, there was a blackout. Food was served though. And 4 of the boys were being lectured by the parents because they went out to play DOTA w/o permission. As punishment, they washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen after eating. We slept by 10pm.

Sunday, the next day. Mom woke us early to avoid the hustle bustle in the bathroom when everyone is awake. So we got ready by 7am. They said there is a gathering by 9am at the compound. We left by 9:30 after having a yummy breakfast (with soya milk/dxn coffee). We stayed at the compound till 3pm (we had our yummy lunch there plus the raw food).


Me and Ate Kai at the compound.


We went home by 3:15 (since the compound and the house we are staying is just near.) Me, Ate Kai and Nuth2x were playing cards, they taught me how to play "Tong-Its". After a few while we rested, woke up for dinner. The adults were watching some documentary film after dinner, the kids and the ladies went outside to talk and play cards. After the film was finished, the rest of the group slept.
But me, Darlene, Ate Kai, and Mara were still talking and took pics (playing with the black and white style).


Nuth, Darl, Me and Ate Kai (L-R)

My mom and Nay Marly were also talking about some serious matters on the other side. We slept around 11:30pm.

The next day, was our last day. We had a yummy breakfast again (eggs+corned beef=coffee haha) We dropped by at the Compound where Paolo was studying (their classes starts 7:30am, so he went ahead.) by 9am. We had pictures with everybody, since it was the last day.



We headed for CDO by 9:30am. There were two services used, so we agreed to meet at Bigby's CDO. We arrived at the place quarter to 11.


The chairs of Ice Castle (beside Bigby's). It's cute.

We had pictures, because the design of Bigby's was sooo classy & unique. If you <3 to travel you would appreciate it. We had another yummy LUNCH. *rawr* We the girls ordered, 1 salad(veggie) and 2 Food Trip Platter(since they have BIG servings, now you guessed why it's called as that lol). We finished our lunch by 11:45 and went to Lim Kit Kai to buy something. There were cute stores that we cant find in Davao, and unfortunately our parents left us to roam around the mall, so there would be no financer. *errr* They did that on purpose and we know it. *sigh* We want to buy so many things but we ended up buying hard bound books. I bought THE FIRE by Sebastian Junger the author of the PERFECT STORM. We left and headed to Iligan by 1. Then we got back to Davao by 6:45pm. But the travel to our place is quite far we arrived home by 7:30pm.

And i thank God for that trip and that we all arrived safely and blessed. :)

Hail hail to my new skin!

Ok i think something is wrong with BLOGGER.com today. I guess their server is lagging. Oh well.

This is the first BLOG SKIN ive ever made. I started and finished this 2(june25) days ago. And i think (IMO) that this is a good skin for a first timer. -_-

It was also my first time to make real "use" of photoshop 7.

And today, i finished my sister's blogskin. She was bugging me about it. So take a look at it, I might as well plug her own "Spot"

Just click the link below



BEST OF ME




My mom also bought me a new pair of shoes from CELINE 3 days ago. They were on sale.. so dont blame me. -_-





And i personally think, it is a good buy. It is always a good buy if something is ON SALE.

One of the reasons, i am also exuberant today is because i finally have the ringtone direct to my phone... from 24 series. Haha, it is soo cute (for me that is).

It is really true... when you imagine it.. it happens.. amazing

Aint he the cutest babe? hihi

But I went out by 9pm and went to my cousin's place, since my parents will be waiting for me there. They watched some video. They(parents along with a lot of couples/relatives) finished by 2am.

How Bright is my Aura?

From Web Tickle..
Kristina, the brightest color in your aura is White

Contrary to popular myth, auras are actually multi-colored energy fields that can be divided into seven primary layers. Having White as your brightest color means that the seventh layer of your aura is the most vibrant. You have an exceptional love for life, which stems from your deep connection to the universe. You're an open channel of energy from the universe, and this infuses your aura with a divine energy.

Exam Days..



Today was the last day of exam. It was fine since i only have to take one exam today.. but yesterday wasn't. Nu uh.. it really wasn't. My first subj went well (since i studied), so did my 2nd subj. BUT my 3rd subj was the worst! I left so many blanks and urgghh.. oh well. *sigh* That's life. I wouldve gotten it all right if i studied, but i didnt because i don't know where to start and where to end. *oh well* My 4th subj. was A-OK (but not too well too). I did well on my last subj. yesterday.

Next time.. i will STUDY! I need to catch up with my subjects..

Pirates of the Carribean

I waited for my cousin to fetch me and my sister. Cause we will watch Pirates of the Carribean (Dead Man's Chest). We were supposed to leave early, but my cousin was delayed. So we left by 11:30. We have to ride two different routes since there is no public utility jeepney that would go straight over to where we want to watch. We are saving the money for taxi for food (YUM! haha). We dropped at our first post.

We were about to ride another jeepney, when suddenly some weird looking guy approached us and asked us where we are going. We told him the place, but not the exact place (you still dont need to say everything to a stranger, right?). He said he wants to ride with us, cause he can't clearly see the signs of the jeepney. But still it is scary to ride with him.. what if he is some psycho? or what? So i politely told him, we will flag a jeepney that will take him to his route. And then, he told us he doesn't have the fare. So i asked my older cousin to give him the fare. And then since we told him we are going to flag one jeepney down for him to take him to where he should be, we waited for that jeepney. But, the jeepney is rare, it passes yes but it's always full. We stayed there for like 15 mins or something. And my cousin noticed, that he can quite see some of the signs and asked us to go ahead, i was kind of hesitant to leave the guy though since his situation is sad. We flagged one jeepney down, and told him we will go ahead. And then my cousin said, he might be fooling around because by that time we rode the jeepney, he walked away from the place. (Ok, so we thought we were fooled. Ive experienced the same situation before and a totally different person and gender but Id probably tell that some other time..)

We arrived at the place, and we went down.. when i noticed that something is wrong with my sandal. Uh-oh, i smell embarrasment coming after me if i can't control the situation. So i stayed at the side, and asked my cousin to come closer to me and also my sister and told them, "i think the strap of my sandal is loose.." (it's i dunno the right word.. sorry..) So, my cousin went inside the mall, while me and my sister pretended to wait for someone outside, refusing to move... and thus providing further embarassment.. (although no one noticed my situation..only me and my inside.. oh and yeah my sister too.. who is laughing..) Anyway, my cousin bought me a new pair of sandal... and she said, ok go change it. So i sweetly told her, "ate save me from enough embarassment and let's ride a taxi to SM and go buy the cd there at the same time... and oh have lunch na lng.. din.." Since we really are planning to buy some cd's at SM after watching it. Since i figured we are already late from the 1st screening. So we flagged a taxi down. I hurriedly dragged my sandal.. (nice try) and got on the taxi, and quickly changed sandals. *sigh* finally... and then i looked at my watch it's quarter to 1 already.


We decided to eat at Mcdonald's, since we rarely go there. I mean, it's been months since my last visit!!! Ok, i am exaggerating. Actually I just want to eat the fries. Im craving for their fries.. *yum*yum* i want FRIESSS!! and SUNDAE!! After eating we bought the CD's after 48 years lining up.. with oh so many people.. Then we flagged another taxi to take us back to where we should be... back to NCCC

So, once we got there.. the tickets for the 2nd screening 3:15 pm cinema 2 just SOLD OUT. But at least the 2nd screening from cinema 4 (still POC) for 3:50 is still available. So i hurriedly lined up, bought 3 tickets.. and off we go. Since it's still quarter to 3.. we decided to just roam around for a few minutes. Then by 3pm we lined up.. (we are at the front.. hihi) ANd we patiently waited and took pics. I will upload them, im waiting for darlene to upload it.

3:30 we were allowed to go inside, and settle ourselves, we got the best place at the balcony. And then.. by 3:50 the trailer started. Wow, so many new movies i wanna see.. i also took pics below haha.. i know it's not allowed.. but just a couple.. hehe.. -_-






Pirates of the Carribean
Was produced by:




WALT DISNEY and Jerry B.


ALL IN ALL.. the movie was great! It was comical and crazy. Although it was a cliffhanger, i dont mind. I wanna see another movie of pirates of the carribean. And i am glad, i watched the movie. I never regretted it. I have simple tastes in watching movies on BIG SCREEN..i only want the BEST.

I dont exactly follow what's in and what's not...

About Fashion and Style...

I make my own personal style. I dont usually follow trends.. I just make do with what is available. For me, putting together clothes, accessories, and even shoes can be just another way of showing off my creativity. I want my outfit/clothes to be unique and distinctive. After all, my look is a reflection of who I am. That's why I'm sure to make a statement no matter what I'm wearing.

About Cars?

I am driven by what is practical!
Im not one for overly risky ventures — that's probably because the tried and true works just fine for me. Whether Im driving to work or picking up a friend for dinner, I don't want to waste time. And my four-wheeled friend should reflect that. I Don't worry about flashy or fancy. The most important thing for me is reliability — a car that will get the job done (like I do), day-in and day-out.So what's the perfect car companion, the vehicle to fit my practical lifestyle? A Toyota, Honda, or Ford Escort will do the trick for me. (got ideas from tickle w/c is true.. )

Wohoo!! Kristina Marie S., CCI

Ok ok.. by the way my subject would sound, it would mean a GOOD news right? Is it just me? or do you notice it too? Anyway.. I just passed the International IIPA EXAM and i can practice worldwide!!! Wow!! And i can place "CCI" beside my name.... woohhoo!

/me *hollers*

Oh well... my grade wasn't "that" high, cause i never reached the 90% only above 80 (i got 82.5).
If i could reach it by 90 I couldve been an Iridology Instructor.... but that would be someting i have to master on, before i could lecture and would take me a long time. But hey, I passed that's what matters.

We were supposed to have dinner at YAHONG's but it was full so we ate a restobar (i frgot the name ill edit this once i find out. )


the restooooo.....



That'sme ordering... mhmm what's the specialty?


I am just soooo happy today! Even though i still have to burn a couple of CD's hehe... I AM HAPPY.. and I thank GOD for making me pass the exam even though, I did not get to study and i slept late because i was burning cd's when i shouldve rested and prepared for the exam, but nevertheless i am thankful.

Ahhh the joy of being ONE with CHRIST...................

and Im the youngesttt wooo! cool

PCAM/IIPA meeting

I did not get the chance to post yesterday...(July 6,2006) but yesterday was my first PCAM(Philippine College for the Advancement of Medicine) and IIPA (International Iridology Practitioners Association) meeting .

There were a lot of plans, all new and exciting, to launch the recognition of the two organization. Anyhow, i was voted as the Treasurer for IIPA(Davao Chapter). That means additional work. Oh well, it's a privelage to be part of the team and the treasurer.

JUst wanted to share that part though... about the first meeting. I wish i could go to the PCAM convention at puerto Princesa... that would be sooo great. But whatever God wills to be.. im ok with it. :)

And today is a very nerve wracking day because today would be the International exam for the certification as a Comprehensive Iridology Practitioner... Oh well.... See ya.. I have to prepare for it ..

Yay!

Woohoo! I finished Anatomy class already! La di da di da..... *hums*

We watched (me, darlene, dad nathan, ate rhea and kuya gary) Superman (Dad nathan's childhood hero) today. At first I thought (my perception, ok?) it wont be a good movie or whatever.. but once i saw it.. oh my it was actually Good. I mean the storyline was great and everything. Although someone told me it lacked the "action part" thingy, but it was good.

We had dinner (darlene, me and Dad Nathan) afterwards at some seafood restaurant that was owned by our classmate, and we decided to eat together for dinner, after our Anatomy class. Everyone was there, but we didn't catch up with some of them, because they went home early. I just got to talk to the 2 radio commentators(and they were sharing more about *healthstuff* to us). It was a good get-together minus the drinks and all (coz i dont like them.)

All in all the whole day was fine and fun :) BUT TIRING! hehe as usual...

Anatomy Class

So yeah, i started my anatomy class after i finished my Sclerology class. Yikes! My schedule is soo hectic, and it leaves me with little sleep! *sigh*

June 20:

Our anatomy teacher introduced himself. I would try to post some pictures.. later when i upload it.. not up close though.:P hihi Anyway he is good teacher, (young). But he is a bit stressed out cause he teaches from 8am-9pm non stop! Imagine that! I bet he is neurogenic.

Since most of my classmates are not really "students" but iridologists who decided to take the anatomy class cause it is a requirement for the Exam to become a "certified Iridology practitioner". I am the youngest in the class, and almost everyone is married, only two of us are not. You can just imagine, how fun and different it is from other classes.

Our class is interesting, i mean the students that is.

I have two classmates who are radio commentators (local) and inventors at the same time. *WOW* And one of them, invented a cheap yet amazing "waterfuel". Yay.. *stellar*

I have a classmate who does hypnotherapy, and is a historian at the same time.

A classmate who is going to Kenya for missions and is a composer/singer(part of my family)

A classmate earning bucks $$$$

A classmate, who is a leader on some organizational group.

A classmate.. who is a year older than i am.

A classmate... who sings in the church...

And 2 business oriented people...


My Anatomy class starts every 5pm to 9pm..

June 21

We discussed the Integumentary System today.

Oh and just a reminder our class... its a special class about anatomy for non medical courses. So you might wonder, why it is so fast, since Anatomy and Physiology is a very long/hard subject.

a bit stressed out?

*yawn*

I haven't blogged for awhile... but i guess it's quite time to at least update about what's keepin me busy and all that.....

June 9 my friend asked me to assist her in editing and making a video. 2 kinds of video Music video and a drama/play. Not just editing, but actually acting....for the drama part! I have no idea whatsoever about editing, because editing is so stressful!!! when we had that in summer... i was in the financial team. rofl! Anyhow, my friend the damsel in distress, really needs my help and so i said YES! Even though i really need sleep. And i ddnt know my 3 day rest from college was going to be disturbed.

June 10 Saturday! The day I was supposed to REFORMAT my PC and INSTALL my new hard drive (80gig) , and then new DVD writer(woohoo!!), and Memory (512mb) ahihi. But still, I am going to pay all that to MY MOM! ack! being the businesswoman she is, she knows i am going to use the DVD writer as a business so she asked for REFUND when i pushed through! *sigh* oh well... anyhow, my classmate arrived and then installed the DVD writer, HDD and the memory and then tried to reformat my pc. While 2 of my high school classmate (1 of them was the one who asked for help named Matet and the other named Emel) are outside taking videos, I suggested a song for them and they liked it, and now they are shooting outside.

Reformatting: I decided to just format my C and not the D. and so all of my important files are transferred to D. anyway the story is quite long so im making it short, my DRIVE D files were all formatted due to one circumstance.

ANyway.... i had a long day that day. I was tired and frustrated because most of the IMPORTANT pictures were erased, and then i couldnt sleep well thinkin about the pictures my parents wanted me to save to a CD and wasnt able to.. *uhoh* i smell twable! We wrapped up by8:30pm

June 11(sunday) -I wokeup 7am. my classmate came back, to install the softwares i wanted to have in my pc since it was so late the other night he didnt have the time to install the rest of the softwares. My 2 friends came back to brainstorm about the drama. Anyway they finished the Music Video yesterday and all i have to do is edit them and transfer them to the pc, that looks so foreign, new design and new softwares installed minus the PICTURES!! ack!. And now i searched the internet and looked for short stories, and found a story with a fairy. only 2 characters + 1 narrator and would definetly fit us coz its only 3 of us. Anyway i suggested to make that story into a play, and they agreed, i made a script... blah blah.. and we thought we needed a BOY! so we called one of our friend over to act as the Boy hehe.. anyway.. we just finished the dubbing that day.. and we finished editing the MUsic video that lasted for 3 mins! it was good, i have to admit and i wanna have my OWN MUSIC VIDEO! i will one day... when im free from stresss!! haha and all the workloads.. i have lately..
