Happenings...!
Monday, December 31, 2007 |
7:50 PM
okay, so I think I was quite out for a while, but you'll know soon enough.. I'll just give a brief backtrack of what happened since I last posted.
-------> Finally, "change layout" mode !
I changed my layout last week. I was actually planning on changing it every month, but since all that work has budged its way through my desk, I've got no choice. So anyway, this layout features one of the famous characters in the Final Fantasy legacy, yup! I think you know who she is already. She's Yuna, the singer slash summoner from FFX. Well, I haven't quite played the whole game in PS2, so I've got only a little background of what she's doing. All my friends say that she's a summoner. Summoning aeons ? And she is a singer too. I love her songs, such as "1000 words" and "Real Emotion". And her tandem with Tidus made her a really big hit.! So that is all I can say about it.
-------> Myself ; Yourself ...and... Lamune.. finished.!
So here's what I just finished watching last week..

Lamune

Myself ; Yourself

-------> Outing of some of the Linneanistas last Dec. 21.
This outing was held after the Chirstmas Party. But since we don't celebrate it and I did not attended it, they fetched me from home. We --meaning Me, Erika, Janelle, Kat, Karen, Joyce, Mj, Dane, Rx, and Pao as well as Erika's cousin who used his van as our trasportation to the site-- went to Picnic Groove in Tagaytay. But before that, we bought lunch from McDo and ate it there at Picnic Groove. Then played cards and then hiking !... wheeew.. then we ate snacks at Max's, took some pics, let all the fresh air sink in, and then went home.
***pics will come out soon. =)
-------> New Hobby ! Bead Crafting...
After seeing my ate creating stuffs with beads, I suddenly hit back my old pastime, bead crafting. I started making bracelets and necklaces, and so on...
-------> Vacation at Aunt Joy's place
Now, this is the reason why I was out for like, 4 days ? Our flight was changed and we went to Cagayan De Oro last Dec. 27. Unfortunately, dad didn't joined us. Kuya Ian fetched us from the CDO airport and we went to CDO SM. We met up with his family there and ate lunch at Bigbys. Is the spelling right ? And so we had a long hour drive from there to Lanao del Norte. whoa, we came to our destination late 6pm !
I really felt the province breeze gushed through me. It was like leaving the usual road traffic and coming to a place where traffic was quite uncommon. Totally ! The more we dived into the road to Lanao, the more I saw trees, forests, and plant fields around me. The next morning, we intended to go to Aurora, as they call it, to just have a view of the scenes. Mom was the one driving the van since no one else can. Kuya Ian and Kuya Llyod who knew how to drive were at work. And so we did, along with Uncle Oscar, Aunt tita (really, I'm not familiar with her name), Ate Celeste, Ella(kuya Ian's daughter), Jackie, and Alkim. Once we met our destination, mom was curious about going to Osamiz City.. What we did was more of a Road Trip rather than a scene-viewing-only-trip. So we went past Zamboanga, Tangub, and other places around Pangil bay. And rode a barge on our way home.
Well, I had fun =) I was also taught by Ate Celeste on how to bake cakes, yum !.. Aunt Joy also gave us fresh harvested shrimps, crabs, marang, pomelo, and other plants they've got.
we head back to Manila a few hours ago, and arrived here at about 2pm. Manila, I'm back =P !

A day like no other
Wednesday, December 26, 2007 |
5:49 PM
Yesterday, was of course, the Christmas holiday. But since we do not celebrate chirstmas, we just had a normal day. We went to the "Bethel", or the "House of God", Philippines Branch Office of Jehovah's Witnesses, yesterday. It was so quiet and peaceful. Once I got there, I got the fresh perspective of the upcoming paradise.

We took a brief tour around the peaceful place. They told us how they prepare the publications such as The Watchtower, Awake!, how it's made (from translation - layout - printing - and delivery of these publications to the other congregations around the Philippines), the laundry of the Bethel family, their spiritual care and needs, and so on.

All the Bethel family members are volunteers. They do this service with unity to our heavenly Father, Jehovah God. They were given a room and a small monthly reimbursement to assist with their personal expenses.

Field Trip
Friday, December 14, 2007 |
10:16 PM
Last November 29, right after our Intrams, we had our field trip. ^_^ well, we hadn't had field trip since 1st yr and 2nd yr so I guess this is an event to look forward to..
But as usual, filipino time as always, they said that the buses should be here before 6am. But now they're late.. hay... 6 buses were there, but the last one got lost on the road. So, instead of leaving before 6.30, we left at about 10am !.. hay.. We're sooo delayed. ok anyway, now the trip:
1st trip:
Villamore Airbase

this is where some of the ancient pieces of the wind are located. We could even go inside an old chartered plane. Then there are profiles of captains and pilots of the "wind world".
2nd trip:
La Mesa Ecopark
this is where the La mesa dam is located. Well, it wasn't that enjoying since its raining. But we got the chance to go up the stairs with about a hundred steps just to see the dam - at first I thought it was the ocean,
hindi pala =P. Then we saw some tv personalities like Angel Locsin filming some adverstiments as well.
3rd trip:
ok, so here's the last part of the trip, Science Discovery Center in SM Mall of Asia. Well, this part was supposed to be cancelled since we were delayed and got there at about 6pm. Not only that, the student's parents were also worried because there were some commotion about Trillanes' group protest in Manila Peninsula at that same day.
MOA Science Discovery Center
Well, it was fun. I can say that it has the same features as the Science Discovery in Singapore that I visited last year. In Singapore, there's this Omni-Theater which is similar to MOA's Planetarium. Although it's not that big, it still leaves an impression of sulit since they're quite organized. We also took a pic in their computers and e-mailed it to my address*. And we took some wallet sized pics as well.
ok so we finished it off with a dinner take-out from Tapa King and ate it while on the road. I got home late at about 10pm. Good thing we don't have classes the next day.
*this pic includes me, pao and kat.. It is located next to my credit, second pic from the right and at the very bottom.
I'd like to give credit to: me, kat, erika ---- for taking the pics.

Intrams .. Officiating .. Booth ?!
Sunday, December 9, 2007 |
7:05 PM
okay.. So now, at least, I've got the pics from my cam and from my classmates' cams..
here are pics from our Intrams last november 26-28:

It took me a while to edit and make these pics because I've got internet shows to catch up. The Intrams and booth day were combined in a 3-day activity. Ours was "Horror Booth". It was quite a tiring week because we're not only there to prepare for our booth but also to play in the intrams. Not only that, we juniors are assigned to be the officials of the whole activity. Talk about a tiring week, eh? hay....

I would like give credit to: me, kat and erika --- for taking the pics.

monitor breakdown..
|
1:05 PM
wah !
It's been long since I've been up to the net world.. It's because of the monitor.. It crashed a week ago and I have no choice. :P
For those that I haven't replied lately, I'm sorry...
I also went to do ministry yesterday morning, and distributed invitations for our convention. And this morning, I went to the dentist to have my rubbers replaced.
Anyway, things are about to go back to normal. Since exams-finished; intrams-finished; field trip-finished. I'll be posting pics about those activities soon :D
