nice ad

i'm a big fan of the prosumer camera --- cameras that blur the line between the point and shoot (like the IXUS 900 Titanium) and the dslr (canon EOS 40d). it's not that obvious that i'm a canon buff.i'm setting my sights on the powershot g10, and i'm browsing youtube for reviews.

so while i was searching, i stumbled on this canon ixus ad. it's not about the g10, and while i'm a fan of the g10, i'm also a fan of canon camera commercials. it runs for less than a minute, so you won't have a problem loading it.

on sleep and an erratum

i've been complaining about how i don't get enough sleep. my usual bedtime, since the start of the 2nd sem, would be around 10:30-11:00pm. no, i'm not conditioning my body to the battering it'll get when the classes are in full swing. it's just that when you have a pc with an internet connection, well, i don't have to explain myself. really.

so it's pretty weird how at around 7:30 pm, my parents are already asleep. and right now (it's 8:30), there's definitely nothing i can do that would entertain me for at least an hour more. so, for the first time in a while, i'm going to make use of the 30 minutes before 9pm, to finish everything that could be done, then i'll hit the sack. weeeeeee


*****
ERRATUM!

it turns out that my childhood friend wasn't exactly kidnapped. she just happened to tag along with her friends to Basilan, then didn't answer any of her family's calls. so she's not helpless afterall. she's just another misguided girly rebel/bitch in the making. so after that, i have a feeling i should reevaluate my idea of pity and empathy. then puke.

hours to midnight

in a few minutes i'll probably end my sembreak with a peaceful snooze. i'll also end my sembreak with mixed feelings on how certain things transpired, like...


Photobucket
my cap and badge. i told my mom that i would frown my way through the night, since i would think of a few dozen places i would like to be at that time than Regency. So alas, i did smile and got a tingly feeling when Paber slapped the badge on me. like how i answered floyd's congratulatory SMS: yeah, i am pretty happy, but i still don't like what i'm doing.

still..i have no regrets with some things, like

Photobucket
riezyl's debut! all of us of know how much the stress extended to her family and to us, and we were really happy that the event was BEAUTIFUL, hitches and drama and all. (photos are in my multiply).

so tomorrow's another day, another school day. so taking a cue from Pink's "So What", i got a brand new attitude and i'm gonna wear it tomorrow!

I'm gonna start i fight! um..okay. i'm still a rockstar though, and yeah, i hope the sem would be my comeback since i felt that things were half-baked last time (but no regrets in the long run).

**********

On a sadder note, i found out that my neighbor's cousin was kidnapped a few days ago. What was crazy about it was the fact that we were actually playmates when we were little.

i wouldn't want the kidnappings to hit closer to home any time soon. i'm praying that she'll be released safely soon. please include April in your prayers.

my angry tooth!

i should probably explain why there was a perpetual bleep on the blog radar that lasted around a week, as far as i'm concerned. well, i going to eat my words right now - the computer wasn't running properly. wasn't. which means during that time when my ass didn't show, we sent it to the pc hospital to have it all fixed. this morning, it came back. so i assumed that from now on, everythin'l be peachy.


after n years, i finally went to my dentist to have something done. apparently, my lower left third molar was impacted (meaning it didn't "explode" ), and the surrounding gum area has been a petri dish for bacteria. so like i said, it was the first time i had something done, and the fact that it was unpleasant really didn't make the "first time" dampened every sentimental cell in my body.

the tug of war between my tooth and her as well as the the pseudo army barrage of drills, pliers and anesthesia lasted for about an hour-ish. so the first 30 minutes after the surgery (yeahhh, it wasn't just an extraction), i was still perky enough to watch my regular youtube soap, but soon after, i was ready to look for a fight and eff-curse the family --- even the baby!

my uncle didn't help either, since it took him 30 minutes after i handed him the money for my meds to bring his sorry self to the pharmacy...and he short-changed me!

I already drooled blood on my pillow, and what's holding me together is the Flanax which is my new mani. I hurts so much i wanted to destroy the pain scale. As least now, i don't cry, i just get really angry that at any moment, i could get scissors and slice kittens in half.

Well, I survived circumcision, how on earth could this be any worse? *sob*

the bucket list so far

the first sem of kalokohan has finally let out its last whiff of flatulence!


My PC fiiiinnnnaalllyyyy got the long overdue overhaul. though the RAM remains untouched, decluttering the unimportant files (thanks to my in-law/technician kuya) finally did a world of good.


I bought "love in time of cholera" yesterday. it draws you in as far as the storyline goes. i want to finish it by the end of the week of i could move one to "100 years".

30 minutes before Monday! i just had the nerve to post something useless right about now. well, at least i'm alive.


Sanity and substantiation will have to take a backseat for now.
