Did anyone else participate in Earth Hour last night?
It was cool walking around the house candlelit.
Feeling random today. Not much is going on.
You know that vampire book? Yeah, the famous Twilight book. Im thinking about reading. Maybe I should buy it cause its so good. I have a Barnes & Noble giftcard anyway. When I first saw it it was a couple years ago. I was at school and one of my friends bought a book for another one of my friends. She was so ecstatic about it. Knowing her it probably was a good book.
Recently, one of my friends from the same school was reading cause she was curious about why everyone, I'm thinking fan girls, were swarming over this series. She says its about a girl who likes a vampire; who is suppose to be the perfect type of guy.
And even more recently, a friend from another school got into reading for a reason I have no clue. Maybe curiosity. She says there is going to be a movie released in December.
So, now Im going to take it into my own accord to read this ever-so-great series.
Curiosity didnt kill this cat.
Aside from soon participating in fangirl-dom, earlier this week I got hacked on Gaia Online... I was devistated for just that day but then I got over it quickly. 3 1/2 years down the drain by just a single click.
I created a new character but its not as eciting as it was before. These days Im just lurking through pages and participating in polls. Not even a single bump. I was in the midst of creating a quest page but.. I dunno. I guess I shouldnt waste my time with Gaia at this stage in my life. I need to advance further and do something productive..
Great. ok now I have chores to do..
Currently addicted to: Faust, Midas and Myself by Switchfoot
I love this fan-made music video! The music goes well with the video clips. It symbolic and the effects are great too. If youve played Kingdom Hearts 2 then youd understand.
Nothing interesting has been going on... 'Cept for on Sunday the premeire of Thats Amore was on. It was funny cause Domenico was sniffing thier armpits.
And today Al Howard performed at our school. It was amazing. Hes really cool, like how hes a vegetarian and he usually votes for the green parties. But this time he voted for Obama. Which is kinda funny cause Al Howard is African American too. His beliefs and philosophies are great too. We have the same views on the things he talked about.
Right now Im bored and dont feel like doing homework at the moment. Im just waiting for vacation.
Currently Listening to: Zhang Li Yin - One More Try
As of right now Im at 191 listens on my I-Tunes. Its the only song Ive listened to for days. Its one of those songs that Im going to "over listen" and stop listening to.
I cant belive ZLY hasnt released anything in a very long time. I mean almost a year. Well, besides her SMTown songs for the every-other-season-SMTown-albums. Shes a new artist too. She needs to be raking out the singles! Shes pretty good for a girl around my age. The thing thats amazing is that shes breaking the Korean market because shes Chinese.
Anyway. Today is a day of lost and found! Today I found a plastic cover for my moms friends tupperware. My mom lost it a few days ago and I found it this morning. I also found my eraser I lost weeks, maybe months ago. It was under my bed. And lastly I found my other knitting needle I lost about a week ago. Then I lost one of those popper things. The ones you play with when your a kid. I dont think I mentioned this but I also lost my scissors at school.
Anything else exciting.. Oh. Last friday was a deadline day. I finished really early and got to go home an hour after school ended. That was a miracle. Oh, and I think thats the day I started to listen to "One More Try".
Now Im at 194 listens. Thats one more than the most listend song on my I-Tunes. -shock- Ive broken my record.
2 more weeks till vacation!!! :]
Currently Feeling: Sad cuz I have scool tomorrow, full cuz I ate a lot today and tired cuz I cleaned a lot today.
Friday: I went to Boomers with a few friends. It was really fun. I purchased an all day pass so we went on the race cars and played mini golf a couple times. We also went on the lollipop swings and the ferris wheel. But then we had to get off the ferris wheel cause they had to fix it or something.. Then we played lots of games. There was this funny taiko drum game and a new Deal or No Deal game. That game was hard. After all the fun it was already dark and we got our prizes and dropped a friend off and went to my friends house. We watched Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At Worlds End on her new 17" laptop. Its sexy xD. Then there was cheese and crackers, mmm. Then I came home around midnight and my dog ran downstairs and started barking. My mom freaked out and said to call 911. The police came and said it couldve been a possum.... but there arent any around here. I dunno it was a weird morning... Ever since then my mom said I had to sleep with her. My mom is weird..
Saturday: I dont remember much about this day. I think I just knitted and watched TV..
Sunday: I got a new phone! Its the one on top. I felt bad that night cause we were supposed to go grocery shopping but I took too long at the Verizon store. The only thing I dont like about the phone is that you cant use your music as a ringtone. Or you cant send music to your phone and use it as a ring tone. Or record something and use it as your ringtone. You have to pay for the dang thing. And theyre expensive! Ringback tones are nice but I would only get one if it was free.
Today: I basically cleaned. I swept, vacuumed, dusted, mopped, and organized. Everything is so much cleaner :] I just wish everything would shrink a bit in my room. I have a queen sized bed but I only use one half of it and there is barely anything in my oversized dresser. And my other oversized dresser is holding my TV, VCR and junk I dont use, and socks. I need to rearrange my room too but I obviously cant move them! Half of my closet is being blocked cuz of my dresser. Danged things.
I want to sell my i-pod and get a zune! But I dont know if anyone would want my i-pod..
The new Fairly Odd Parents movie is on in about 10 mins :]
Currently feeling: sick but excited for the 4 day weekend.
So a friend and I were walking to my house when we saw a squashed lemon on the road. My neighbor is growing a lemon bush.. or is it a tree.. I'm not sure. But the lemons are HUGE. Its like the size of my head. Anyway, so my friend decided to take one and she needed help getting one so I helped and we got a hold of one and ran to my house. It was hilarious. It was just one of those moments where you had to be there.
Yeah well I got sick yesterday. This weather is sooo weird. Sometimes it sunny and hot and sometimes its windy and cold and sometimes its rainy. Its like the sky is having mood swings. I cant wait till summer.
Also, recently, Ive gotten back into knitting. Ive been trying out cable stiches. I like the saxon cable stich. Its pretty. My mom wants me to make her a yellow scarf, so we went to Yardage Town and bought some yarn and material. Ive been meaning to make a tote and a small bag but I havent gotten around to it. My friend is also teaching me how to knit a hat using circular kneedles. I also want to learn how to make socks.
In my Yearbook class some people have to design a senior ad page, and I'm one of them. Good thing I have a partner and that the group Im worknig for gave us lots of pictures and designed what they wanted for us. I think I got lucky.
You know, there are a few things I want to do before I go to college:
- I want to get a makeover, like.. buy nice, new clothes and cut my hair. [I would like a shopping spree if I had the money but this would be impossible!]
- Buy a new desktop computer [this probably wouldnt happen either]
- Travel. My cousin said we MIGHT go to the Philippines then go to China with my two other cousins.
- Paint my room. Heck, give my room a makeover.
- Sew a dang bag!
- Maybe a new cell phone? Ive had mine for a couple years. I think I went over the 2 year contract...
- Possibly a new mp3 player. I dont like my i-pod nano anymore.. The Zune 8GB is wayy better and prettier :]
I cant think of anything else at the moment. But I need a fresh new start for the start of the rest of my life. As scary as it sounds.. its true.
Currently feeling: Blah... Just feel like posting.
So my friend told me about the video on the left. I was kind of confused at first but towards the end I got it. It was pretty funny especially the facade part. My friend was just cracking up about it. She thought it was hilarious.. and its been a couple days... and she still thinks its hilarious. We have very different views. I'm more like a whatever and laid back kind of person and shes more outspoken and driven. Like opposites but we have some similarities.
Nothing much is happening really. Just homework, TV, music, reading the usual routine. Except, on the weekend, I cleaned out my I-tunes. Not entirely though there's some music on there that I should delete but... I have them on there just to have them. I guess you can call me a pack rat. I keep stuff just in case. But cleaning things can relieve some stress and make you feel cleansed. I like that feeling of relief and the load has just been taken off of your chest.
Also, I watched Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles yesterday. Its pretty interesting. I like the actress Summer Glau. Shes sooo pretty. She plays a cyborg, which means she does all these cool stunts and they make it seem like she's super strong when that something that she picks up could really be made out of styrofoam. haha.
Another interesting thing: In Chemistry class our teacher brought in marshmallows so she could show us the effects of pressure and volume. She also put them in the microwave and they expanded and melted. She also put a Doritos bag in the microwave and it shrunk! I didnt know you could do that. You would think it would catch on fire but it didnt.
So guess who is raking out the singles and albums so far this year. Its BoA, DBSG and Utada Hikaru to name the major artists. BoA is releasing her next Japanese album called THE FACE on the 27th of this month. Shes also releasing another Japanese single called be with you on the 20th. DBSG released their 3rd Japanese album, T, on January 23rd and Utada Hikaru is also releasing her 5th album called HEART STATION on March 19. Shes also releasing her HEART STATION/STAY GOLD single on the 20th and shes releasing a 3rd English album sometime this year.
There's a lot to look foward to.. and right now Im going to watch That 70's Show. Its starts in about 6 minutes.
Currently eating: Cubyrop!
This candy is really sweet and cute :]
It has 8 different flavors: mango, orange, melon, peach, lemon, grape, lychee, & strawberry. Well, the one in the picture has pineapple but I bought the one with lychee. Its a new flavor!
So on Thursday it was crazzyy... Chemistry class wasnt so bad but in English class we had so much work to do we didnt even finish it by the time the bell rang. Then after that is Yearbook class. It was a deadline day that day so we stayed really late after school. I stayed till 11:30 PM cause my mom didnt want me to stay till 12:00AM. Im glad I left a little earlier but I still woke up late the next morning. I just hate having to rush in the mornings, especially when you have to walk to school. Luckily I had Library Aide that morning because that class is a no-brainer.
On the bright side, we ate Pat & Oscars on the deadline night. It was kind of weird cause our teacher is like a vegetarian... sorta. Well, he doesnt eat any kind if animal thats been living in a cage. I dont know what you call that kind of person.. Anyway, we had a whole bunch of different pizzas with different toppings. To name a few: avocado, tomato, mushroom, cheese, pepperoni, basil... And there was also chicken and salad, LOTS of salad. The only reason why we had so much food is because a girl in our class works there and she gets 50% off whatever she buys.
I have also been living up to one of my New Years Resolutions which is to read more! This year so far Ive completed a book, the one you see on the right. And Im currently reading Swede Dreams by Eva Apelqvist , the one on the left. I used to think that reading was sooo boring and it was like a chore when I had to read for school. But I guess I gradually started to like it. I started by reading comics for a few years and now Im moving on and reading novels. Yes, actual novels. I feel myself growing more mature as a soon-to-be adult. I need to brush off the kiddie stuff Im used to and move on to someting new. Eventhough I am reading kiddie/teen novels its still much more than pictures and dialouge.
Currently watching: Spiderman
Ive been really busy with work last week. But I did manage to watch TV around 8:00. Thats the time I usually eat dinner. And guess what movies I ran into while flipping though the channels. Yup, Spiderman. On Tuesday night I watched Spiderman then on Thursday night I watched Spiderman 2. Ive fallen in love with Spiderman again.
I thought Spiderman was ok. Although I dont remember much from the first time I saw it and last Tuesday I slept through some scenes. I missed the kiss scene in the rain!
Spiderman 2 was awesome. Its mainly about Peter trying to find out what he really wants and he also reveals his identity to MJ and Harry. And at the very end he gets to be Spiderman and MJ gets to be his girlfriend which was a great ending.
Spiderman 3 was hilarious in some parts, I thought. Especially in the video above. I thought the hair-flip was hot though. The beggining was nice how he had a perfect life but then the rest was pretty sad.
Yesterday I went to a Catholic celebration at church for Santo Nino with a friend, my mom and her mom. Its usually celebrated amongst Filipinos but there were a couple Mexican and white people there. I think they just came for the free food. There were a lot of people who took 2 boxes of food and like 5 plates of dessert. People get crazy when it comes to free food.
Then after we dropped them off I asked my mom if we could go to Blockbuster to buy Spiderman. I was originally looking for Spiderman 1&2 but they only had Spiderman 3. So my mom asked an employee if they had any and she said they only had the trilogy pack. So I decided to buy it since it was only about $32.00. Which is a pretty good price and I didnt have to pay $15.00 for Spiderman 3 if I wanted it.
Luckily I had today off so I can watch Spiderman. <3
