Annyo!
Well, I think some of you do know what that means.. but for the sake of others, it means hi.. Before I get any farther than that, let's just save it for later because I might never stop if I ever start. Anyways, I admit, I was quite shocked when I found out that I haven't been writing here for almost, well, 2 months and 4 days. As I remember, it wasn't that long, or is it? Owell.. to tell you the truth, I was too preoccupied to even write an entry and i'm often to lazy to even type.
Many things have been happening lately, not to mention the fast-approching choral contest. The song our class will be singing is Tell the World of His Love. I know it's a bit ironic since these past 2 years, we've been singing lively, no make that really really lively songs. I don't know how things will turn out but I do hope we can at least, get it to top10. Okay, here I am again, unfortunately, wishing for the impossible. But I can dream, can't I?
I've been through lots lately since I'm having a really hard time trying to concentrate in chinese since i've been losing hope little by little, don't you know that from first, i've tumbled down to 4th? How inspiring is that? But let us look on the bright side, if you imagine, just imagine, that there are no star sections around, i would have been the 1st, but since I don't attend sunday school, I don't get the credit those who attend sunday school has, that's why, it pulled all my grades down. Now you can tell how shallow that was.. But I don't care anymore. I've finally learned to just look at the brighter side because you can't get anything if you keep on looking on the other side when the other side can at least make you smile a bit. That is why I always think that for me, i'm still first because I know I tried all my best and i'm content with it.
As i've been telling you in my past entry, i'm really addicted to korean movies and still am and blame it since it was and still is the main reason why I couldn't get to update earlier. hihih I've already finished: My Girl (excellent! I really liked it! The 2 really look good together!) A Love To Kill (very good but I don't like the ending, so sad..) Princess Hours (simply fantastic! the best of bests..) 18 29 (it was fine) Love Story in Harvard (excellent! It is really inspiring) Full House (excellent. very funny and the chemistry's great!)
So far, that has been the dramas i've watched but my list is growing and i'm craving to buy more! whhaahaha! Talk about wise spender but think about it. What's the use of money if you won't even use it?
Now, i'm pretty much downloading the OSTs of the dramas i've watched. Oh gosh, i'm really so addicted. But lovin' it.. I should've finished downloading yesterday but unfortunately, there was a really really strong typhoon that hit metro manila that's why metro manila witnessed black out.. I really hated it. It was so hot yesterday night because there was no electricity nor little air. Since there was nothing to do yesterday, all I did was do our project in social. The diorama. Argghh! It's a pain in the neck! It's so hard to do! But with nothing to do yesterday, me, yaya and my sister made it but it's not yet done. Actually, we did not finish it on purpose because it will be unfair in my part if I did the project all by myself, right? Yesterday noon was really scary because of the strongness of the wind. I can just imagine all the roof getting blown away. What an imagination!
And to tell you, i've been all-gaga about getting to learn the korean language so I wouldn't need to read the english subtitles. And I think that the korean language is pretty cool.. haha If there's anyone who is kind enough to teach me I would really appreciate it! hahah As if there is but as i've said earlier. I can dream right?
Well, I think this much is enough for this day's entry.. I promise to update as much as I can. I was planning on changing a username, something that represents hmm.. it would be a secret! As soon as I finish all the images lined up, I would change my site name
Well, that's it for now, bye guys!

Addicted, anybody?
Well hello guys, it was a while since I last wrote an entry here on xanga.. school was obviously hectic, as usual... Hmm.. well not really, but for me it counts as hectis simply because in school i'm bored to death.
This past 2 days, my prayers were actually answered We didn't have classes for two straight days. It was so relaxing and of course so very enjoyable even though it was actually raining hard. But since there was no classes, it was fine, actually, it's more than fine, it's great. But I just don't get it, why do other people actually want to go to school? I find school really boring and being at home lying at the bed is better than any other things, oh, i forgot, there actually is a thing better than lying in the bed.. but i'll tell you later I don't know why I started to hate school, I wasn't like this before. Oh well, I think China has made such an impact Or maybe i'm just filling my mind with bad memories of school. OH!! I hate it so.
Speaking of school, I still haven't studied for our chinese test tomorrow. Just great. My goal for the whole school year is to get every test in chinese perfect and here I am, still writing an entry for xanga and not actually caring about studying and surprisingly, not cramming, which is really unusual since I always remember everything last minute and always cram. But it seems that today's different. Hmm.. maybe it's because I have had a very good night sleep. Now, that, is the beauty of having typhoons and suspension of classes But since SONA is actually finished and there is no such sign that it will rain hard tomorrow, I guess there would be classes already I hate myself! I'm becoming more and more lazy every passing second.
How can I not be lazy anyways? I've been so addicted to the koreanovela My Girl lately. Not addicted but oh-so-addicted . As you see, I have never been this addicted to anything yet, so this is quite new to me. Well not actually new, I mean, I have been addicted to some movies before but not this much.. soo.. you know.. You should watch it, the story is soo nice, not just a stereotype-like show like the others. Its story is actually pretty unique, standing out from the rest, and not to mention the cast! Lee Dong Wook and Lee Da Hae . Lee Dong Wook is so handsome and Lee Da Hae, at the same time, really gorgeous. They really look great together! When did I get this attitude of match making? But anyone who is in my position obviously can't help it. I'm so addicted and i've been watching this 16-episode show for a couple of times now and still can't get over my addiction. And what's great is that just last week, Lee Dong Wook came to the Philippines. Gosh, we were at my house, along with Hazelyn and Michelle just last Saturday and suddenly Hazelyn came shouting, saying, "It's Lee Dong Wook!" We were really shouting and jumping. Wahahah! I've to admit, he is really handsome! Since when did I drool so much over a artist? It's seems like centuries ago.
Argghh! I have to get over this addiction but I don't really want to. It's really weird, haha! And just for the sake of My Girl, I actually am dying to study the Korean language, and I always end up being jealous of those people who can understand and speak Korean. I had no idea some addiction can cause such 'change of heart'. Everything is just so not me, but, honestly, I don't want to return to being me. It's as if I am content being like this for the rest of my life, hahah
I've got to resolve everything fast before I get crazy, whahhaa But judging from the way I speak I am almost to-be-dead-for.
Update soon..
