AI strikes again

so, the AI calvary's here and we've seen the newest batch of hopefuls duke it out on the big stage, hoping to....

cut the crap!!!!



what is it still doing here???



i hate Sanjaya as much as i dislike whatshername. She's annoying!!!!! At least she makes it to the bottom three, Sanjaya and his hair don't!!!! I'm beginning to doubt America's voting efficacy to produce sensible singers (read: why the hell did Hicks win). Sanjaya and his hair need to be cut, pun intended. period.

Gina gets my vote. Even if she isn't the type who could belt it like a diva (read: Melinda-LaKisha-Jordin), she has a likable personality, and she could sing.

if you visit yahoo's page on AI, when they ranked the contestants as to how strong their media appeal is, she's curently in the top 5. Sanjaya? in 12th place. haha. I just hope history won't repeat itself and pull a Taylor Hicks.

Flash forward to the finale>>>

Ryan Seacrest: And, the American Idol is.....SANJAYA MALAKAR!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

unveiling the cover

the cover's finally out!!!!!!! Potterphiles rejoice!!!!

say it with photos

how should i phrase this?

i'm back!!!!!!!!!! haha . ok, so like, since my last entry, a kajillion things have happened.

closing ceremonies. trips to Abong - Abong. senior's night. recognition. graduation. overnights. par-teys. ceaseless camwhoring. almost every possible moment captured. 6 GB worth of pictures. haha

so, they say that a picture is worth a thousand words. so, without further ado...






the IT Society's closing ceremony. all our students from the different public schools, the SPED students and the orthopedically challenged were there. *sob. i'm gonna miss those guys!!!!!









what conspired sa Abong - Abong. buti pa si shai, may Red Ribbon from Robin (cute alliteration).



our class banner made during the retreat. ain't it purdy?







camwhoring (as usual) after the Senior's recognition day.




senior's night...





i love the black and white. it looks really classy. haha.


gotta love my genius best friends.



G.R.A.M.S. FYI, G and S are the ones with the real grad awards. haha. peace!

a moment shared with wonderful people.




during MJ's grad party slash overnight, I had the liberty of being the official photographer of the Chosers (pronounced as Cho - sers.haha) aka. ANTM Chosa Edition slash Night of the Living Chuva. haha.


supposedly drooling. whatever.

and the best picture of all....



so how many words does that merit me? haha

rest in peace

a puddle of tears is equivalent to all the things i need to let go off


the hopes. the excitement. the diaspora....


the dream. its death. i mourn, but i wont look back. i'll try. it's a process.

the way of pain, i must walk towards. the process of being sober again. free from all the things that intoxicate me with bliss. dreaming is addictive. too much of it leaves the user in a momentary state of "high". i need to be sober. it must be like chemo, painful. but

it needs to be done.

sober.

a process that usually ends up in a puddle of tears.

it's the equivalent of all the things i need to let go off.

a puddle of tears.

"Look at us now..."

March 2006

There i was, sitting at the back row, in the good ol' la pu campus, with eunice and camille. I watched two seniors pass by our room (specifically, Mitch and Juzzy, my debate mentor :D), and someone said, "hala, exams na pala nila". Oh yeah, the seniors always take the 4th quarter periodical exams like a week earlier than the undergrads. I texted Juzzy, and Princess, my prom partner, "good luck sa exams!!!". Basically, i was indifferent to what they were doing at that time. So, it didn't really mean much to me.

Flash forward>>>>

March 2007

There i was, sitting at the backrow. As luck would have it, Camille was my seatmate. The constant reminder that we only have a few academic days left somehow made me question how effective time is to render us slaves to the sunsets and ticking clocks. Haha, time, the big fat bitch.

Today was our last formal school day, since we're gonna have our last exams on Monday. I was sleepy the whole time, since i just spent my Thursday evening watching Antonella barba suck in AI. But nevertheless, i tried to make this day a moment to remember. So yeah, we had the usual picture taking and the karaoke session at Lola's, since Jap topped the WMSUCET.

I still remember Keeshia telling me that time flies unbelievably fast during the 4th year. True enough, I could still remember climbing the main entrance staircase for the first time. I can't believe i'm going to have to take my last few steps on the same staircase in a few days time. I keep thinking it's goodbye. I never thought it would end so soon. The class that i've spent most of my high school life has changed me in so many ways than i could imagine. It's painful to think that in a few months time, we couldn't call ourselves classmates anymore.

I'm going to miss everything about them, the early morning kopyahan sessions, to the camwhoring, to the "drama"...haha...*sob*. the last hugs, the last camwhore sessions, the last caf visits, the last class with Erwin M. (haha...and the last class with "Coach" Erwin P., REJOICE!!!!)

What's more is that i'm going to graduate in a few weeks time, and i'll be on my way to college. And quoting the red head (sorry, forgot the name, :D) from One Tree Hill, "I going to have to start all over again".
