golden socks


We all (my sis, bro and I) decided to name her Vodka instead.
Dont worry, though. She's not confused.
We never called her by any name before until we were sure of what to name her.
So, Dean is now Vodka!

brand new bears

We got two more puppies! Dad said they were both male, so Kavan and I decided to name them Sam and Dean. Yes, we love Supernatural that much!

It's been almost a week now and dad recently told us that Dean is a girl. Wow, what a surprise. But the name is still sticking!

Sam, the all black puppy


Dean, the one with golden socks

This reminds me of Karissa Kara Simon!
Except... She hides them under her bed -.-"

A shock, I deserved

did you feel it coming?
I was slowly getting rid of you
bit by bit
A two-day survival
yesterday could have made it a three
but there you go again

Just one smile
and you're off the hook

You gave me a shock
I deserved

Forgive me
for letting my stupidity take over
giving you what looks like a smug
You caught me by surprise

Do it more often
I'll get the hang of it
I know it for a fact
I will :)

He one spinal cracker

Jonathan "Legacy" Perez

First time I saw this guy auditioned on So You Think You Can Dance, I thought, "Holy kabooki, the dude has gotta be the best B-boy ever"



Like everyone else did, I expected him not to be able to dance other styles. But when I turned on the TV today, this is what I saw!




Amazingly talented, this guy!

In every forest there are trees

Hello, fellow earthlings.

Haha! I've got exams this week. Have been a total geek since Friday. Yes, I practice procrastination. Sue me.

I'm not the study-during-holiday kind of person. Trust me, I've tried. It's just so hard to wake up during the holidays when your room is dark and your bed is so comfy and the weather is cold.

My alarm would scream,
"DONT PATRONIZE! I realize, this is my real life.
I'm half asleep and I'm wide awake..."


Marianas Trench usually wakes me up every morning. It makes me jump whenever Josh Ramsay scream that first verse all of a sudden. But I have become immune to it. So I switched to Skillet. And that was how I woke up at 8.30a.m. this morning. Best record!

I'm not gonna convince myself that I will screw any paper. Thanks to 3sa and her brother's smart choice of book, I've learned that you will become what you believe.

Remember the story of the three blind men in the Bible? They believed that Jesus could heal them and so Jesus said, "According to your faith be it done unto you". They immediately received their sight. Notice that it was their faith that turned the situation around? So, yes, I'm taking that note in and leave the rest to God :)

I shall come back next weekend when the exam is about over (still gotta sit for the Moral paper on the coming Monday). Or maybe I wont come back and update. Who knows... ;) I might just talk to my bed and fall asleep. Hmm... what shall I choose to do?

Rules are meant to be broken, right?

I seem to break at least one rule every time I step in to Padini.

One time, I walked in with my awesome strawberry yogurt shake and the guy told me, "I'm sorry but you cant bring drinks in here". I skipped my way out.

Yesterday, 3sa and Ray were trying on sunnys. 3sa told me to take pictures. So I took my phone and shot her. Tried to shoot Ray when a guy came up to me and said "I'm sorry, miss, no pictures". I laughed and nodded my head repeatedly, though I did not know that rule exists either.

Checked the rules. There were only three; No food or drinks. No picture-taking. No pets.

Well, well...

This means only one thing...

"Lemon! Castro! Get ready, we're going to Padini !"

My doggies are amazing :)

Updates!

rocked the city

Went for the Change Your World concert last Saturday night with 3sa. Relent rocked the house. The ground was literally shaking. It was beyond awesome and it is beyond my vocabulary of words to describe. So, I wont be saying much now. Still am speechless.

I went through a lot trying to convert these video files just to make it big enough for you to see. I doubt you'd be able to hear clearly, though. I used to my phone, no camcorder =/ Haha!

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


Okay! Scratch that. You cant hear anything at all in the videos I've converted, but oh well! I'm just gonna go and edit them into one video. You gotta wait though. Bahahahaha!

sleep deprivation

I slept for eleven hours straight. From 5.30 pm yesterday until 4.30am. I feel so cool! Yes, I know it's nothing special, but dear, havent you noticed? I have no life. This nerd has been real busy since the day school started. Dean, I am so not gonna miss high school. Trust ME.

While I was half asleep, mom called. I had no idea what time it was. Probably 7pm or so. She said, "Pip, I'm at Hui Sing. Do you want char kueh?".
In my head, I thought of the sweet noodle. So I went, "Huuuuuh? What?" and she repeated, "I'm at Hui Sing, do you want char kueh again?".
I was still thinking about the sweet noodle but I said, "Yes, of course" anyway. Went back to sleep.

I woke up after dreaming of 3sa squeezing the life out of me. That was 4.30am. Nice, 3sa. See what you did. Make me hug you so many times until I actually dreamed of it!

Brushed my teeth and I think I woke dad up in the process cos while I was heating the char kueh in the microwave, dad walked downstairs all dressed up like an athlete. He went jogging. I'm gonna have softball later at 8am.

Got sta get ready !

Softball Madness

Yet another rant.

The after effects of sleep-deprivation. I cant stop talking nonsense, I might as well type another post before I crash, right?

So, second practice was on Wednesday afternoon. Now that was something! We ran 3 rounds around the school, ran back to the field and did some jumping and push-ups, before we started throwing balls at each other.

Dear God, you have no idea how much I miss running and sweating. Ok, maybe you do know, since you created me and all. That was just a figure of speech. But point is, thank you so much and I love you, Father, you are amazingly awesome! Amen.

Forgive me, Ray, for hitting your shoulder. And 3sa, those seven hits are my seven blessings for the near future if anything were to happen to your bra and panties. Yes, that's the brain telling me I need to sleep. Jay, you should've let me try to kill you instead. Mel, you're so right, that sunblock sure is strong!

Haha! I felt like I was walking with barbecued chicken legs. The sun was scorching hot. Everyone thought I got a sunburn but HAHA! I did not ;P

Everything hurts after that though. My arms, my shoulders, my thighs and even my butt cheeks! I have no idea how that even makes sense. Everything still hurts now. Especially my right arm and butt cheek. But dont worry, I can totally handle playing drums tomorrow. Ahh so excited! Cant wait!

Here are pictures from Wednesday!

Getting ready for my ball, aye?

Aiming at 3sa ! Got my game face on, yo.

Jay, the president !
(I like the sound of that, Jay)

Ray and her bottles.

One pretty awesome Saturday

Did new things! Awesome new things. It was pretty hectic, how full the day was. Went to school in the morning for our very first softball practice. It wasnt much since there were so many juniors and so little time. (I am one of the juniors too haha)

Went to church in the afternoon for the one thing I've been longing for; DRUM LESSON ! Whoot! Finally, I get to hit things. Release stress in the form of drum beats. Uncle Louie, Dan's dad, was the one giving the lessons. He is super cool. He hits with the enthusiasm of a teenager, which made everything a lot more exciting! :D

After the lesson, I went upstairs to join 3sa, Ash, Alicia and Dan. All four were playing base... I guess. I dont know, I'm not a plucking-strings kind of person. Haha! Not that I have anything against that ;)

Snapped some pictures using 3sa's camera, hit the table with the drumsticks, watched 3sa try to play something on the piano, I tried to play the Mr. Bean theme song on the piano. Dan played Muse's Supermassive Black Hole on base and Ash sang to it, she sounded exactly like Matthew Bellamy. Epic! After a while, I got tired and slept in the corner of the room... And the sounds these guys made were pretty soothing in a way.

Anyhoo, pictures! (stolen from 3sa's facebook)

Missed a beat !


Doing their own thing...


3sa danced.
Dan watched.
Ash took over the drumsticks and switched to rockstar mode!

Goodbye, love.


The saddest stage of being a skater, is when you seriously have to stop. I have reached there. It's time to face it. I cant skate anymore.

No more adrenaline rush.
No more tricks. (not that I have landed much)
No more falling on my ass.
No more threatening the dogs with my board.

Because if I do fall, the titanium in my spine might just break or whatever it does when you fall. Doctor never explained it. I just cant fall. I'm not allowed to. Whack, isnt it?

So I guess I'm just gonna hang my deck on the wall and reminisce.

I'd probably collect decks now. Hehe! That will be almost as awesome as skating.

But I still want a set of trucks though. Just in case I cant handle myself, I'd just kick push my way through.
