nihongo speech???
got an email yesterday regarding our nihongo final exams...
"the examinations will not be in regular test format; rather, we will be holding a class-wide NIHONGO SPEECH CONTEST, patterned after the JFM's recently concluded NIHONGO SPEECH CONTEST."
what???!!!!
i cant even write a complete sentence?!?!.... and i am expected to deliver a speech??? what????
nyaaahahahhaaaa... im doomed.. :I
since i've got no choice... fine...fine...fine... matagal pa naman! hehehe...
last night, i started thinking of possible speech titles... hehehe
1) nihongo ga wakarimasen (i dont understand japanese)
-title and actual essay itself. probably the shortest essay i've ever written...
2) toire wa doko desu ka? iie benjo, iie....iie... (where is the toilet?... not the japanese style...no...no...)
-a girl's life-long search for a western-style cr
3) kore.... kore..... kore.... (this...this...this)
-speech which consists of nothing but "kore" and an awful lot of props. although there are moments when an object is thrown far, then "sore" is used...
4)
-the super hightech toilet that turns into a fighter-robot when evil strikes...plus, it makes cute (and obviously recorded) flushing sounds during battle and makes sure that everyone is comfy through its well-heated and fully-deodorized toilet seat...
5) ahiru-chan jodan (duckie/jas jokes)
-nihongo compilation of the infamous duck jokes....
so far... yan pa lang naiisip ko... hhmmnn... probably because those are the only japanese words i know?!!! except for my favorite..."ohayou" hehehe...
thanks nga pla ke ben... sa kanya ko tinanong yung nihongo ng "joke"... hehehe...

weekend adventures...
nung sunday pa dapat ito... wala lang... tinamad lang ako...
------
Saturday...
kung nawawala ka sa japan, at napansin mo na napakarami ng babae compared sa lalaki sa paligid... at karamihan sa mga babae ay ganito ang kulay or style ng buhok... well, mataas ang probability na ikaw ay nasa shibuya.... the "Mall Capital of Japan"... (ata.. hehehe... daming mall e... hehehe...)
wala lang... naaliw lang ako sa buhok nila... naalala ko yung aso namin dati nung bata pa ko... hehehe... ang mean... :)
kelangan ko pa bang ipaliwanag kung bakit ko kinunan ito?
nakakita kami ng museum na free yung admission... syempre pumasok kami... hehehe... sayang... nihongo yung mga sinasabi sa videos... may natutunan na sana kaming bago...
Sunday...
Nadaanan na namin itong temple na ito dati ni frank... pro ngayon lang namin nalaman na meron pa plang entrance sa may gilid... at mas maganda sya at malaki... dami ring tao... madaming may mga astig na camera kaya minsan nakakahiyang ilabas ang mumunti kong camera... hehehe...
astig noh?
patapos na ang winter... malapit na ang spring... kaya may mga flower na nag-sa-start nang mag-bloom... im not really a "flower-fan"... pro kung puro branches ba naman ang katabi nyang mga puno, dun mo ma-a-appreaciate yung ganda nya...
after this, punta na kami ng Ueno to meet up with henrison, jecal and alvin (na nun ko pa lang nakita...)
nag-eat-all-you-can kame.... hehehe... di na talga ako papayat nito... hehehe...
then, after nun, punta kami akihabara (san pa?!) pra mangarap... hehehe...

dahil nga mega late na ako nagising... syempre ma-loka-loka ako kanina kakaayos ng gamit at kaka-prepare ng sarili. sa kakamadali, imbes na conditioner ang ilagay ko sa buhok ko, body soap ang nailagay ko... tsk..tsk... at eto pang malala... habang sinusuot ko yung medyas sa isa kong paa, hinahanap ko kung nasaan yung kapares... a few seconds later, dun ko lang narealize na nasuot ko na pla sa kabila kong paa... engots!!!

i broke the 9:10 habit....
darn it!!!
this addiction to anime is getting worse by the day...
i woke up at 8:00am this morning...
dapat 7:00am ang gising ko... tupa... puyat kase ng puyat.... :(
nasira tuloy ang mala-"groundhog day" pasok namin ni frank sa ofis...
as far as i can recall kse, 9:10am lagi kami nakakarating sa ofis...
basta every day yun, pagpasok namin sa pinto, makikita namin yung clock sa wall...
ngayon... we came in at 9:14am... darn! sayang ang record!!!
pansin ko lang talga dito sa nihon... ang daling gawing de-metro ang buhay...
halos constant ang travel time at iisa lang ang sinusundang oras.
pati ang mga tao dito... constant din ang ginagawa at oras ng pagdating.
anyway... kelangan kong bumawi ng tulog mamyang gabi...
sana lang... di na naman ako mapuyat kakapanood ng bleach... hehehe... sana....

Valentine’s day...
Some people abhor it... some people adore it...
I on the other hard, am just plain happy it's not the same day as my birthday... :)
I mean, knowing my parents, they would have named me Valentina... or something equally crappy. No offense to all the “Valentina’s” out there... You are all probably beautiful creatures of God. But seriously though, “Valentina???”...Cmon... don’t tell me you actually like your name and use it... (unless of course your second name is Lourdes, then I would probably understand why you’d use “Valentina” instead....)
------
Anyway...
Sa lahat ng nag-ce-celebrate ng Valentine's day today... Enjoy nyo lang... Lalo na kung libre! :) ... Happy day of hearts or whatever you kids call it these days...
Dun sa mga kulang na lang magtirik ng kandila at mag-suot ng itim ngayong araw... good luck...
it's a highly commercialized day of the year... if you're bitter about it, deal with it! Be comforted by the fact that most of these couples will break-up anyway... (If u agreed on this one, then yes, you are indeed bitter!...hehehe...)

Angel
The Corrs
She lived like she knew nothing lasts
Didn't care to look like anyone else
And she was beautiful,
so beautiful
I still hear her laugh like she's here
Shower it down on all the young
It isn't so wrong to have such fun
Forever angel
I hope they love yo like we do
Forever angel I'll be proud to be like you
Be like you (I'll be proud to be like you)
Does the sun shine up at you
when you are looking down?
Do you get along with the others around?
It's got to be better than before
You don't need to worry now you're gone
And when i go to sleep at night
I'll thank you for each blessed thing sorrounding me
For every fall I'll ever break
Each moment`s breath I wanna taste
Confidence and conscience
Decadent extravagance
Never ending providence
For loving when I had the chance
-------
I'm sure she's so proud of you...

The 23 things u should know about me
1. I am the youngest of 5 kids... I have 4 brothers. The age gap between my fourth brother and me is 6 years. (oo, madalas akong tuksuhin noon na ampon ako... hehehe...)
2. I have a very vague memory of playing outside when I was young. As early as I can recall, I was raised by television and family computer (yes, I’m an 80’s baby...).
3. I was born Feb 11 (Friday, 5:35pm), feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes... which explains my horrendous second name. My mom made a “panata” to the Our Lady of Lourdes, so she can have a daughter, and walla... few years later, I was born... Thus reinforcing my parent’s belief that I am a “blessing”. And thus reinforcing my belief... that God really has an amazing sense of humor. hehehe...
4. I wanted to be an air force pilot, but I was 5 inches short of the height requirement. 5 f&^*ng inches!!! Seriously now, do you really need to be that tall to fly a f*&^#ng plane!!! I don’t think so?!!! (yes, im still bitter about it!!!)
5. I was educated in Catholic school from Kinder to College.
6. I have a guitar. her name is Helena (kulay blue at black) oo, may pangalan sya! May angal? Hehehe...
7. I don’t do well under pressure.
8. I firmly believe and have faith in God, but I am not religious.
9. I was not born in a hospital. I was born at our house then, at Del Monte Ave, QC.
10. I was not supposed to go to my second interview at my current job, dahil kulang ang aking pamasahe (pathetic noh?). I lived in an apartment then, near ust, and have too much pride to ask my parents for additional money..(again..) Buti na lang may nagbayad ng utang sa akin...(na of course di ko maalala na pinautang ko pla sya… buti na lang nagkusa… hehehe…) speaking of utang... yung mga may utang sa akin simula nung gradeschool... Nasan na bayad nyo? Hehehe...
11. obviously, magastos akong tao. the more I earn, the more I spend. nakasanayan na lang din siguro.
12. hindi kame gumagamit ng “po” at “opo” sa bahay... ayaw ng daddy ko. gusto daw nya, prang friends lang daw kme. (nagpapabata! Hehehe...)
13. iyakin ako... ayaw ko lang pinapakita. movies, books, stories, events... name it, basta nakakaiyak / nakaka-relate ako - iiyakan ko yan!
14. I don’t like being surrounded by a bunch of strangers... lalo ng kung sila magkakakilala at ako lang yung “odd one”
15. I’ve never been hospitalized for anything... no broken bones, no gory cuts, and no fatal communicable disease whatsoever... (None that I recall)
16. madalas akong mag-sneeze when im around newly-watered plants/soil. ayaw ko lang din talaga nung amoy...
17 . I’m a Barbie Almalbis fan…:)
18. I’ve fallen in love and have fallen apart. but im willing to give it another try. just not now, I have to figure out a lot of things on my own...
19. kung di ako feb 11 pinanganak, my name would have been “Vanessa” (now, everybody laugh!!! Hahaha.... Natawa din ako nung nalaman ko... hehehe...) Kung lalake naman daw ako, “Vladimir”... ang seryoso noh?? di ko kinaya... buti na lang babae ako.. hehehe...
20. I love my family, my friends, my job... at syempre si God. kahit na madalas kaming mag-clash ng plano... alam kong may dahilan ang lahat ng bagay...
21. meron akong eye glasses, di ko lang sinusuot... di bagay e. meron din akong retainers... di ko rin sinusuot.... naiirita lang ako... hehehe...
22. matampuhin akong tao, di ko lang pinapakita at sinasabi. Ayaw ko kseng balang-araw pagsisihan ko kung anu mang sasabihin ko sa isang tao. kailangan ng matinding “emotional sensitivity” para malaman kung ano tlga ang nararamdaman ko... Kung gaano ako kabilis magtampo, ganun din ako kabilis patawanin...
23. I believe that love knows no boundaries.

Life's a Bleach...
naa-addict ako ngayon sa Bleach... hehehe...
wala lang...ito pinapanood ko dito, every night... :)
i kinda like the ending song...
Life is Like a Boat
(Bleach ending song)
Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along,
Who’s gonna comfort me, and keep me strong?
We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on coming and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on our way
The waves would guide you through another day
dooku de iki o shiteru toomei ni natta mitai
kudayami ni omoe dakedo mekaku shisarete tadake
inori o sasagete atarashii hi o matsu
asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made
Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong
hito no kokoro wa utsuriyuku mukedashiteku naru
tsuki wa mada atarashii shuuki de mune o tsureteku
And every time I see your face
The ocean heaves up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon
I can see the shore
Oh, I can see the shore
When will I see the shore?
I want you to know who I really am
I never thought I'll feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along,
I will follow you, and keep you strong
tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku odayakana hi mo
tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de ume o terashidasu
inori o sasagete atarashii hi o matsu
asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made
And every time I see your face
The ocean heaves up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon
I can see the shore
Unmei no huneoko gi nami wa tsugi kara tsuki e to watashi-tachi o sou kedo
Sore mo suteki na tabi ne, dore mo suteki na tabi ne

Oras...
Mula ng bata pa ako, binibigay na sa akin ang lahat (well, not all... di ko nakuha yung puting kabayo nung 4years old pa lang ako...)
Yes, I admit, I was (or am) one hell of a spoiled brat...
Pero meron akong gusto na minsan ko lang makuha...
Oras...
Hindi ko masisisi ang mga magulang ko,
Pareho silang nagta-trabaho pra mabigay sa aming magkakapatid ang lahat ng kelangan namin at higit pa...
Pero syempre, iba pa rin tlaga pag alam mong pinag-uukulan ka ng panahon.
Hindi kse yan nabibili... at minsan, isa rin syang sakripisyo...
Kaya gusto kong magpasalamat sa mga taong nagbigay sa akin ng oras ngayong araw (at noong mga nakaraang araw) ...
lalong-lalo na dun sa mga taong di ko inaasahan na nandyan lang pla kung kelangan ko...

ramblings of an idle mind...
this trip made me realize something...
im emotionally-dependent...
Ngayon ko lang tlaga na-realize un. After several years of "training" myself to be independent, doing things on my own, not asking for help when i know i can do things, etc... It's frustrating to know that i really do need emotional support... and it's much more frustrating not to get any. :(
-----
Marami pa lang naiisip ang taong walang magawa... The idle mind is the devil's workshop, ika nga nila...
-----
today i received an email from my dad... i cried... i never imagined myself in such a situation... i would actually find the thought silly... and to think all it said was advanced happy birthday and i love you.... yes, im this pathetic...
-----
btw, hindi po ako nagpapaawa... di ko kelangan nyan... pwera na lang kung ikaw si God.
-----
is it possible to love someone and not get hurt?
-----
im sinking deep into depression... must be the hormones...
-----
tao pla ako... at malamang, masokista pa...
-----
hindi na kita mahal... pro naalala lang kita... must be the hormones....
-----
how to be emotionally-independent??? solution: wag magmahal... kaya mo ba yun?
-----
my skin is soooo dry....
-----
busy?
-----
what's your priority?
-----
mahirap pa lang maging "invisible"
-----
everything but you... how sad is that?
-----
ang mundo... sa pagkaka-alam ko ay sa araw umiikot... hindi sa 'yo....
-----
bakit ba ako malungkot??? di ba dapat hindi? malamang matagal na pla akong malungkot... di ko lang napapansin nung nasa pinas ako kase maraming distractions... Siguro i should take this time to reflect kung ano ang tunay na problema. Ito na siguro ang pinakatamang panahon...
-----
tumigil na ang mga luha... hala, hilamos na!

sana may makita akong snow bukas...

I'm broke but im happy....
Today we went to Akihabara....
my purpose... to buy myself a digital camera...
meron akong 4 cameras na pinagpipilian....
1) Casio Exilim S600
6mp, 3x optical zoom, 2.2" LCD
ang nipis no?! yun talga ang plano ko nung nasa pinas pa ko, gusto kong cam, yung manipis/maliit lang, pra kahit san, madaling dalin...
2) Sony Cybershot DSC-D7
5.1mp, 3x optical zoom, 2.5" LCD
isa pa itong OA sa nipis... feeling ko kasya sya sa wallet ko... (lalo na ngayon na wala na syang laman!!! hehehe....)
pro nung gabi before kami pumunta ng Aki, may naisip akong feature na wala itong dalawang ito... hindi ko makukunan yung sarili ko ng maayos.... :(
which brings us to my number 3 and 4 choice....
3) Sony Cybershot DSC-M2
5.1mp, 3x optical zoom, 2.5" LCD screen that tilts
ang cool ng design, mukha syang celfone... hehehe...
meron nito c carlo, pro im not sure kung M1 or M2 yung model nya... madami itong options... good for people who want to experiment with their pictures.
4) Nikon Coolpix S4
6mp, 10x optical zoom, 2.5" LCD
do not be fooled the the jologs name "cool pix"... hehehe....
na-astigan talaga ako sa design ng isang ito nung nakita ko sya sa net.... at nung nalaman ko pa na 6mp at 10x optical zoom.... :O grabe! hehehe..... it's not that bulky, at mapipicturan ko ang sarili ko! hehehe.... problem nga lang dito, walang image stabilizer... sasabihin nya lang syo na blurry yung picture while your trying to focus it... Point and shoot camera sya, so those who are seriously into photography, might find this camera frustrating.
so, sino ang inuwi ko????
tada......
Nikon Coolpix S4
front view: (pro teka, nasan yung lens?)
rear view: (huh?! wala pa rin yung lens???!!)
there's the lens!!!! hehehe.... (parang bata...)
uy! may cute!!! hehehe....
not the best camera in the market... pro it makes me really happy!!! :)
wag na nating pag-usapan kung magkano, sabihin na lang nating matinding pagtitipid ang kelangan kong gawin! hehehe....
so sa mga friends na di ko mabibilan ng pasalubong... miss ko na kyo, pro sorry na lang... isipin nyo na lang, napasaya nyo ko... hehehe.... :)

dahil malamig.... hehehe....
Firewoman
barbie's cradle
The moons gone down
I know you're still awake
This heart I've found
I didn't intend to break
Cause I've seen the world from down there
And it wasn't a pretty sight
Now the circle is turning
Are you armed for the fight
I wanna be a firewoman
I'll water down your desire
Cause I know this love is a killer
I wanna put out your fire
Apology is futility
Now destiny is not a friend
Did you come for danger
You gave me love for pain
Now you're much more than a stranger
I wanna give you love
But all I have is rain
I'm gonna put it out

nihongo ga wakarimasen
hhmmnnn....
today, 2 beses akong natanong ng mga strangers kung ano ako... (at hindi po ako kalabasa....)
one was in a store. the old guy in the counter asked me something in nihongo... nasa utak ko, gusto kong sabihin na "nihongo ga wakarimasen"... kaso i was in shock... hehehe... di ko nasabi, pro mukhang nahalata nya naman. so sabi nya "where are you from" or something like that. (nak ng tofu, marunong naman pla mag-english!) so sabi ko "Philippines". He asked me kung meron na daw akong discount card, i said no, so he gave me one. On our way out, he said, "Salamat po" (nak ng tofu tlaga, marunong naman pla ng tagalog!!!... hehehe... ) Cool noh? hehehe...
another incident was in the train papuntang magome., nung pauwi na kme. We were sitting next to an old japanese guy. Nung mga bandang gitna na nung ride, he said "Singapore-jin", "Vietnam-jin"... etc... So i said "Firipin-jin desu". Sa loob-loob ko, finally, may nasabi na kong nihongo... hehehe... Tpos, he asked me something in nihongo uli... na syempre di ko gets... so sabi ko "nihongo ga wakarimasen" . Then he said, "Ah, gomen..." Dun ko na-realize na amoy beer pla sya... hehehe.. lasengots pla c lolo... hehehe...
and this is just day two?!!! hirap tlaga pag halata na hindi ka native dun sa lugar. atleast sa cebu, pag nagsalita ka, dun lang halata... dito, few feet away pa lang, alam na nilang "outsider" ako...
which i guess has it's pros and cons... hehehe...
nga pla...i'd like to take this opportunity to thank pimsleur's and sensei rochelle... hehehe... kahit papano may nagamit ako, bukod sa "ohayou"... hehehe....
------
nagkamali kame ng baba ni frank ng train... bumaba kme sa Togoshi (ata... hehehe) basta one or 2 stations away from Magome... hehehe.... Since sayang ang pamasahe, nilakad na lang namin... 1 Km walk in freezing Tokyo... hehehe... Thank God for winter clothes... In fairness, di sya ganun kalayo... Tsaka nice din na maglakad-lakad sa isang bagong lugar... hehehe
Habang naglalakad, dun ko na-realize na napakarami tlagang vending machines dito... sayang di ko nabilang, pro cguro around 10 vendos yun.... 10 vendos within 1KM... wow.... dami!!!

Salamat...
kahapon sana ito... kso bagal ng net e.... :(
--------
Ang galeng….
Hindi ko tlaga inexpect…
Hindi ko naamoy… and to think malakas ang pandama ko sa mga “surprises”.
Salamat po tlaga… touched tlaga ako…
Salamat sa time at effort, kahit na medyo busy tyong lahat at yung iba dyan nasa malayong lugar… Salamat tlaga…
Wala akong masabi…. Madaming words napumapasok sa ulo ko ngayon, pro sabog… pro basically, it all boils down to one. SALAMAT!!! Hindi ko madalas sabihin yang word na yan, kse para sa akin, kung kaibigan mo tlaga ang isang tao, lahat ng ginagawa nya para syo, ginagawa nya dahil gusto nya at dahil mahal ka nya… wala na dapat “thank u”, implied na yun… kaligayahan nya dapat na gawin ang lahat ng iyon para sa iyo… pro sa pagkakataong ito, kelangang ko syang sabihin… di ko kayang i-contain ang nararamdaman ko… I feel so blessed to have all of you as my friends…
SALAMAT PO!!! At MAHAL ko po kyong lahat….
(ang mushy na nito…. Tama na….)
Sabi ko di ako iiyak…
Hehehe…
