Alright Adelaide, I'm really getting bored of you now.

bleh.

2011-09-06T15:45:00.006+09:30

Today, I decided that I am going to be serious about something. And I am speaking here firmly.

As you all are unaware, I am quite a compulsive buyer. I would go to the mall to get just this specific item but then I would end up purchasing stuff that I do not really need. Why? Nobody knows why. But I am saving for my very first car and so I need to take notes seriously.

In other news, I just got my license! Yey. Can't believe I waited this long.
I also had my second lesson today and I learned how to make a U-TURN and how to perform a three point turn. Not just sure how my instructor survives teaching me.

Still petrified,

P

seriously.

Dear Huntsman Spidey,

You've been hiding behind my mirror for like ages. Just wondering, how can you stay in just one spot for 8.5++ hours without moving?! You're not that huge but you see, you're freaking my sister out.

You know, I just had to force her to take a picture. Idk I just had to. And I'm not gonna hurt you ayt, BUT for the love of ghandi, when will you, lazy bum, get off your ass and get a freaking job?

Anyway, I hope you didn't mind me taking your picture.

Just go and save yourself.

Love,

P

Dear My Mirror,

As you are most likely aware, I did a bit of room cleaning a couple of days ago. I made my bed, wiped YOU, and vacuumed the crap out of the place.

And everything was pretty good until YOU decided to house a spider colony and ruin my life this morning when I came over rushing (because I was running out of time, I was gonna be late, coz I always am, and that's what I do - I rush!!) to do my make up.

It is YOU, Mirror, that makes me and my sister feel so unsafe now in our own room.

Thanks for that,

P

Ugh! I feel so fckn sad today for no apparent reason. They say that there's more to life than chocolate. But I say, not right now. -.-"

Idk. On the other hand, I think Taylor Swift is really pretty.

Just saying,

P

omg, i'm driving.

2011-09-01T19:35:00.015+09:30

I took my VERY first steps on the road earlier today. I guess I have been preparing for it since I was 5 with my fave person on planet Earth, my granny, on her lap. :) I was super excited and nervous but it all went fine, I'm glad.

It was Awesome! I was like omg, i'm actually behind the wheel and the rest of the time I still can't believe I'm driving. Frightening! 40mph felt like speeding already. I was mentally unprepared and I didn't know that those pedal shits are so sensitive, like wtf. Tiring! Mom was right, driving requires ALL your fully alert senses to work together and while sight is the most important one, my eyeballs literally wanted to jump ship! Meanwhile, on the road, cars overtaking me from behind were staring at me like I'm in a fckn zoo cage exhibition.

But yes, I managed to survive! I had a very little idea of how a car actually operates and there were just lots of information to absorb. I kept screwing up the sequence every stupid damn time I make a turn. Good thing I have very good driving instructor (though not the most patient person on Earth, I heard), really good at teaching with maneuvers. Plus he's Singaporean. Hearing his singlish accent made me miss Singapore even more. Hmph!

And my next lesson will be next week!

Can't really wait,

P

uncool.

Things I Do Not Appreciate:

- wanting to get up off my lazy ass and do something but it's just so cold and I couldn't be fagged so nevermind.

- when my lenses give me farking headaches.

- missing this year's Hari Rayah in SG.

- pimples (and pimple marks!) on my back.

Seriously,

P

My phone died of old age. RIP, my precious Nokia E65.

winter sucks.

2011-08-25T14:21:00.011+09:30

Spring/summer is upon us and I cannot freaking wait!

Reasons why I hate winter so much:

1. I hate winter clothes. This spring I can finally turn to one of my most trusted allies - shorts + nice top :)

2. Cuz winter is a shitty weather and I hate walking to work when it's really cold and windy.

3. Cuz I'm a summer person. I grew up in the Philippines where "everyday's sunny." 21°C is my winter.

4. My face gets fatter!

5. Waking up early in winter morning is 10000000000000000000x harder than waking up in spring/summer.

In other news, I have recently passed my learner's driving test at my first attempt with flying colours! Yey, now all I need is an instructor.. who is patient.. :))

P.

good stuff.

Singing is so... hard! I always fail to remember to breathe properly. I don't know why I still keep trying haha. But I really really really enjoy this stuff! :)

maybe tomorrow.

1. I was waiting for the bus to take me home a couple of days ago and a woman smiling at me came close and asked which bus stop to use. I thought to myself, this woman looks very familiar and I'm pretty sure I've met her somewhere. It was only a few days after, I realized she was actually my friend's mom whom I have met at her b'day party just last month. I mean, what the hell is wrong with me? I even bought her an amaretto cheesecake, you know, and yet I didn't have the foggiest idea who she was! I seriously felt like the worst person on Earth.

2. The pancakes at The Original Pancake Kitchen are aaaaaawesome but their coffee tastes aaaaaawful. Anyway, you should definitely try the Jamaican Banana!

3. It's my parents 22nd wedding anniversary and they were fighting non stop over some silly thing. They could just never agree with each other. They actually both agreed on that. But I love them and I couldn't ask for better parents (b/c it's not just possible to get. Kidding). What I actually learned from watching them is that everything you read in John Gray's "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus," is especially true to married people.

4. Went out for another house viewing. Fought over sharing a room.

5. My zits won't just go away!

6. My brother took a driving test and passed with flying colours. I'm so jealous right now.

7. For the first time in my 5 hell years of dealing with customer service, I made one customer REALLY angry. Like R E A L L Y. Yes, that happened. But then, yeah, I always thought German people are always angry. Hmm. Idk. I guess something's not right with me lately.

Anger is one letter short of danger. ~Author Unknown

The thing is I tend to blow all my money on just one thing. But believe me, it's usually for something I've been wanting for ages, like the one below.

Yeah, I know. All the 5 members of my family are still complaining about it (in fact, they always question my shopping trip). But as some of you already know, I like to cover songs with my acoustic guitar. So yes, I recently purchased a Rode NT1-A Microphone but I still don't know what to do with it yet lol. I still need to get an audio jack adapter or something. This mic condenser produces much warmer sound and I can't wait to try it on my vocal. And oh, I don't have a very good singing voice ayt, but who cares, care bears, I enjoy singing.

I Love You,

P.

for the king, baby!

I'm actually a non-member, but I am so glad to have attended the CFC - Youth for Christ (Catholic version; counter organization YFC) conference this year in Sydney - http://oceaniayouthconference.org/ I had the chance when my dad temporarily took over coordinating CFC - YFC here in Adelaide. The event was attended by 700 people from all over Oceania (close to 40 from Adelaide, if I'm not mistaken).

I have met a lot of interesting young people and made friends even though I did feel a bit out of place at the start. I attended a huge youth conference where I didn't know anyone and somehow I felt too old to join youth activities. It also reminded me of my two younger bros who used to run conferences like this lol. I did think of running away during day 1, but hey I'm glad I didn't, and not because the location is too far away from anything and is on the outskirts of the city, but because other than somehow feeling out of place, if you just don't think too much and just enjoy, the whole experience was just AMAZING. There were also workshops, dance, band competitions, and sports - pretty much like that fun experience you get when trying to win the school intramurals.

What amazed me the most was seeing how inspired these different youth were in giving glory to God. Like seriously, I wonder where they're getting that energy, that so much passion. Like arrgh, beyond words, can't really explain. And oh, did I mention that they have like the most awesome praise and worships songs?

Such an unforgettable experience.

Until next time,
P.

just awesome.

Not a huge fan but damn, Transformers 3 (Dark of the Moon) was awesome, except Megan Fox didn't return for the movie. Not sure what happened but I still can't believe they replaced her with not-megan-fox (uhm, what was her name again?). But yeah, she's got nice lips and I love her accent. Acting wise? Uhm, not so much, I reckon (shut up, I'm trying to pick up some Oz slang, ayt.).

The name is Rose, I think?! Rose.. something. Anyway, I'll cut right to what I did like about the movie: Patrick Dempsey was on it! From McDreamy to McTransformy? lol. And of course, what everyone likes to see - vehicles transforming into robots and vice versa. I mean, boy, even if you look very closely at the screen, it is just impossible to see. Whatta transformation! The clash between robots and humans, and oh those guys in flying suits, coolios! Hmm what else.. what else..? Oh well, obviously, I'm not a movie critic, basically just saying what I thought in general. I can't even tell you which robots are Autobots and Decepticons (if I spelled that right) well except for Bumblebee and Optimus Prime lol. So I reckon (shush! I hear you!) that's all for T3.

And so...! If you haven't seen this yet then, you know what to do! :)

for the nth time.
