looking back...

13 school days more, and ,according to our moderator, we'll have our last exams for our entire high school career. Without a doubt, my last year has been the most fulfilling year i have experienced as a student!!!

What happened so far (non-chronological):

• we shot a commercial/short story movie for lit by the beach, and made some "friends" with the money-makers there. read: sarcasm
• we made a magazine that led us to have multiple pictorials in different locations:

1. pasonanca river
2. la vista del mar
3. my house
4. in school

• doing the magazine (cover page's the same image i used for my blog banner), forced me be absent just to finish the layout
• i learned MS Publisher overnight!!!! *never use MS word to do your f*cking layouts!!! :)*
• i finally played a decent game of basketball for PE, for the FIRST time. haha
• i finally made my first research paper on Incest and passed it without jeopardizing sleep that much.
• i was part of the group that organized the first elections in our new campus
• i've been to manila for a debate competition
• i finally interacted with my other schoolmates in my batch
• i got a 100 in my trigo periodic exam!!!
• but had a couple 65's in my short quizzes. hahaha
• i faced my fear and recited my elocution piece in front of the people i hate
• i'm stuck between taking up economics or nursing
• for the first time, i was a dj!!! haha..don't ask.
• i cried for the first time in front of my classmates
• we kinda skipped library work just to camwhore along the corridors in school
• i feigned an aching shoulder because i thought there was a wound in my shoulder when hit theclassroom door pretty hard, but when i came down to the clinic and saw no wound, i just lied para hindi ako mapahiya. crazy me.
• for the first time, my classmates went to my house to celebrate the fiesta/my pre-birthday bash

so far, yun pa lang yung naalala ko, but if i remember some things, i'll update it.

I can't believe Anna Nicole Smith died!!!!! the bitch died....shocking, really!!!!

I'm planning to publish a book this summer, a simple coffee table book, really, filled with photos. haha, just to reduce the boredome i'll probably have doing nothing.

So, there. :)

The evolution of a pathetic writer

Well, after a commitment that i didn't have a hard time fulfilling, it finally paid off. My blog's officially a year old!!!! Haha..the evolution of a pathetic writer. basically, i started off as a person who has mediocrity in writing plastered on the forehead. Now, i've realized that, one of the things i love doing is writing. I've never been a member of the school paper, and prior to starting "thetwistedigest" (my blog's first name), my writing skills are below par. i've definitely made my niche in the blogosphere. blame debating for helping me improve my grammar. but still, expressing my self in this no-nonsense blog is more comfortable than actually speaking, but of course, debate's still a priority (pre-college that is! hahah).

What i've realized, after 12 months of posting semi-spontaneous thoughts, is that this blog isn't just an outlet of self-expression, but also an extension of your personality, your thoughts and the things that get muffled in the real world. haha..i really can't believe i've been a blogger for a year now. Unreal!!!!

Writing's my thing now. ^_^. I have no intentions of stopping. On to bigger and better horizons then. >woooooossshhhhhh>>>>

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RIN LEEN!!!!

RENT fixation

i need to be studying right now for economics, morality, compo and lit, but no, i'll be better off writing. (0_0). Anyway, the first day of exams was to put it lightly, not "nice". :( . i don't wanna fail!!!!

American Idol made it's not so live via satellite debut here in the 3rd world!!! Yay!!! Seriously, i love AI!!! I just hope this season won't do a Taylor Hicks. Yeah, i'm still mourning over Chris Daughtry's elimination, but at least he's doing great right now.

Anyway, it's kinda weird that i'm just developing my fascination for the musical - turned - movie, RENT. I've heard about it before and I heard it was really nice. I've read the review and they say it's really really really good. Ok, this is getting pathetic. I wanna watch it!!!! I wanna watch it!!!! I wanna watch it!!!! (i develop an obsession for random things that i find nice. ^_^)

the rampaging cyclone

a turbulent cyclone of thoughts and random, nonsensical thoughts drown the focus that i should have regained after the two week hiatus from school. the storm keepes getting wilder and wilder. to break it down into these chunks of thought would take me hours to write.

the storm that should have been calmed has reached it's full momentum. I don't know what'll happen next. I can't think straight. i used to be good at organizing my thoughts and planning my day into these pockets of time where i do things a normal person would do. i want to scream all my troubles and problems away...

but i can't. i can't because i don't know why. i'm not making sense. i'm shallow, i'm problematic, i'm pessimistic, i'm evil, i'm not myself lately.

AdZU, check. AdMU, check. UP and UST..um..whatever. I'm gonna be affiliated with the BSN's of AdZU anyway...

I need something to relieve me of stress and anxiety soon. if i'll keep it locked up inside, i might implode.

the cyclone spins..and spins..and spins...and spins....

whatever happened to the me i knew myself to be? :(

post-2006

Before anything else, an observation: it's become a formula currently making "waves" in the movie industry, wherein, producers capitalize on the movie centering on the good guy - turned - bad guy thingy, and personally, i like watching movies where most of the supporting characters die or are killed of by the good guy - turned - bad guy. We've seen tons of movies that explore this aspect of the plot. Characters from these movies include Jean Grey, Anakin Skywalker, and..um...Jean Grey.....poop. So much for that.


WOoT woOT wOot WOot!!!!

In a few minutes, the new year will dawn on civilization (on my side of the world that is)..so..viola, consider this the ice cream and cake to the gastronomic delight that is 2006. ^_^

So.....

Why did i change my blog name? thetwistedigest seems a bit long for me, probably too long for that matter. And my blog isn't exactly a digest, is it? twstdd sounds more "chic". lol. Well, what's in a name after all?

To the blogmate/s that ...

were/was . I've removed you from my list because: a. i tried to open your blog, and the sight of fornication greeted me. b. you NEVER EVER EVER NEVER linked me (the brat that i am). c. the blog became a nonexistent link. So, there. No, i know you didn't intend for the blog to be replaced with a porn link (what the hell was that about anyway?; it happened to like two of my blogmates), so, i don't blame you. :)

are. I couldn't deny the fact that i haven't been that good of a blogmate. I rarely visited you in the past, so consider 2007 a time for me to get to know you guys better. To the few who have been a regular stop for me, i won't stop being a regular reader. :)

will be. then you'll fall under the "are", and will recieve the same treatment. provided you will not satisfy the criteria that classifies you as "were" or "was".

To 2006. what a ride!!! Now that the year is over, which means all things will just be remembered in retrospect, God has been really great (when was He/She not great?) and to sum it all up, well..words can't really express it all. ^_^.

to 2007 and...

the countdown to "Deathly Hallows": I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!

graduation: the inevitable looms, and i can't stop it.

the prospect of a smaller waistline and over-all

weight loss:it has to happen. soon. even if i have to puke (joke!) or not eat(hmm....)..or puke. hahaha

college: look at it this way..at least i have an excuse to shop all over again. ^_^

the "mystery" of what will be in the next couple of days, weeks, months: embrace it.

yeah...

eMBracE iT. ^_^
