I Was Tricked

Remember this pic from my last post?



Turns out it was all photoshopped. This was the real pic



Teng ene, I felt for it. :P Bet you guys did, too.

I find this post not interesting enough. Let me teach you how to speak Chinese in 5 minutes, guaranteed. :D

Flag Fashion Statement

American flag printed stuff has been in fashion for quite some time now









Even Union Jacks are quite ubiquitous, too







But Miley is sure making a statement in a Philippine flag printed one.



Where can I buy her shirt? Izzocool.

Random: Celebs in green







So technically, the flag print of choice for them according to these pics is...erm...Libya. :-?

Gaddafi is happy.

Unforgettable

You know your life has changed forever when that one very special encounter that happened a certain time ago will always stay in your mind.

It's that UNFORGETTABLE kasi

No, I'm not in love.

Let me tell you a story about me, the trash and a big ass creature. A few weeks ago, I was throwing the trash out. It was mga 1 ish in the morning(puyatera ako to the max), when suddenly I saw a creature in the shadows, the moonlight--more like the faint light from the fluorescent bulb outside the house--reflected on its face. I got scared. It was....breathing. And it was....croaking. :|:|:|

OMG. I recognize the silhouette of the creature from my Science books and the Muppet Shows I watch as a kid--IT WAS A FROG! It was this huge:



And it looked at me like this:




okay, I am exaggerating. But it was as huge as the kittens here. And the kitty cats here are a bit larger than normal kitty cats. God. I got scared but at the same time oddly interested so I tried to take a step closer to look at it but it hopped away heavily like an obese amphibian.

The fact that it ACTUALLY moved scared me so I immediately closed the door shut, breathed rapidly and had to send a message to my best friend about it on Facebook.

I told my family about it and they were like "meh." It was only weeks before this happened that I called them down because there was a "big" frog and they just saw it was something a bit larger than small bar of soap. But I told them that it's different this time. The frog was HUGE and I swore I heard a loud thump when it hopped away.

My brother told me that big frogs are called toads. A duh. I knew that but I know what toads look like. The big ass frog didn't look like a toad. It looked like an abnormally large frog. It was gargantuan, enormous, humongous!

For reference, this is what a toad looks like:



Now this is la frog

Okay let's just say it was a toad but I will still say frog nonetheless

My dad jokingly asked me why didn't I kiss the animal since it might be my frog prince. I bluntly told him the frog went away so how could I kiss him? (I don't care if this frog will give Prince Harry a run for his crown when I kiss it, ayoko magkaroon ng tanginang kulugo. *jitters*). Plus, I thought Frog Prince was a FROG, not a nasty toad.

But it was just so cool. I HAD to see it again. So I went out with a flashlight and looked for the silly frog. It would be easier if the front of our house was clear and all but it wasn't. There were roofs and ply wood outside since one of my neighbors(who lives a door away, by the way)was doing a "little" renovation to their house and the amount of the stuff they needed overflowed to my house's area. So you could just imagine me looking under the roofing stuff and ply wood and even a toilet just to find that oh-so-cool creature.

But alas, NONE.

I thought I would see it again, but maybe that first encounter with BAF(Big Ass Frog)will remain my last for now. Every time I throw out the trash, I wonder if I'll get to see BAF tonight. Oh well.

I'll just be here waiting for you to come. :D

Not really related but funny story: I told my mom about the frog(she wasn't awake that night when I told the other family members about the frog)and she wasn't as shocked as them. She said that back in her province, she and her cousins saw BAFs all the time. There was a time they attempted to kill a BAF(ay. Galit ang PETA)by dropping a BAR(Big Ass Rock)on it but the BAR just bounced of the BAF. Wow. BAFs that strong pala. XDD

A Lot of People Seem to Have It Too......

At least, only girls ages 10-14 XD. Yep, I'm talking about the Vinny virus. :D

I noticed a lot of people have viewed The Vinny Virus and it has become one of my most read entries evah. I only posted it less than a week ago so I found it kinda shocking just how much views it has gotten.


"Kawawa naman mga ibang posts kuuu"

You girls ha. :P (and possibly boys, too)

Top keywords on my stats this past week were "Vinny Castronvo" "Vinny Castronovo abdc" "Has Vinny Ever Dated a Girl" and "Does Vinny Like me" (dream on, little girl....or boy).



I was Tumblin a while ago and although I know the Tumblr obsession over the ICONIC Boyz weeks before, it was only today that I was able to visit Tumblr accounts dedicated to the ICONic Boyz. O_O

Wow. I can't believe it. I know there are obsessed fans, but these girls are not even that. They're OBSESSED FANS(fans so obsessed that it needs to be spelled in caps). Well, it is possible to catch a dangerous case of the Vinny Virus, right?

As much as I find the ICONiacz and Granderz obsessed and crazy, I don't think they're as bad as, well, the Beliebers(who famously sent death threats to Selena Gomez over Twitter). Heck, I never had any bad experiences with the first two at all! They seem respectful to each other regardless of calling dibs on whoever member they like from the ICONic Boyz. Well, let's just say I've had tons of bad experiences with Beliebers before and even now.

I know you Beliebers will be like "KILL GILL!!!" now.


Kahit hinahabol ako, kailangan naka smile pa rin! Ajejejejeje

Serena and Jack

A few days ago it was reported that blonde hottie Blake Lively and blonde hottie lover(with Bar Rafelli and Giselle Bundchen under his GF credits) Leonardo Dicaprio are dating.



Karl is shocked.



I am shocked, but no one cares anyway.

Seriously, I find that hug pretty friendly rather than, uhm, loverly. I hug my walls and pillow like that all the time.

But the two sure acted like a couple according to reports. Can you say eeew?



What's up with the GG ladies being linked to fugly men these days? Like I heard Leighton Meester was spotted dating Justin Long a few nights ago.


My account of how their date went. I know. Over exaggerated na yung angry Drew Barrymore. hehe

Basta. If they're happy with whom they're dating at the moment, I am happy, too. That's their love life noh.



Hola

BAKIT KA BA NAGMAHAL SA AKIN??

No, this isn't a post about romance.

IT'S A RANT ENTRY

I AM SO ANGRYYYYY!!!!! I AM BURSTING WITH FURYYYYY!!!!!!! ARGGHHHH!!!!!

We all know the one thing we hate about the hard economy is the prices of stuff--gas, food, water, Escort services--rising.

AND FRUTOS IS NO EXCEPTION



Ay galit aku. >:|

This is what happened: I always buy Frutos from my suking tindahan. Usually, I buy the original variant(above)and it costs 2 pesos for 3 pieces. Sulit, diba? I always buy Fruitos from the store because of that(and it helps that Frutos taste oh so good, too).

NOW, IT'S FRICKIN 1 PISO EACH. GUESS WHO WENT TO THE STORE WITH ONLY TWO PESOS IN HER HAND HOPING SHE'LL GET HER USUAL 3 PIECES?

Obviously, the prices of food went high again which is sad because I know food prices have hiked up many times before and the Frutos I buy from the store would still be 2 pesos for 3 pieces. Ang sad.

I hear that gas will possibly be even more expensive that it already is by two pesos. That's sad din.

Looks like they're hiring. Apply na!

Random thought: I've always wondered why we all have to let a gas station employee pump the fuel for us instead of doing it ourselves. I mean, could anything go wrong if do it ourselves?



Okay, I take that back.

Tagged! I'm It! :D

Okay. I got tagged by Ate April and whenever I get tagged in these kinds of stuff, I usually do it as soon as possible! :D

Rules: Each tagged person must post ten things about themselves. You have to choose and tag ten people. Go to their blogs and tell them you tagged them. No tag backs. Have Fun.

1. People always ask me what my heritage is. Truth be told, I'm only sure of the Spanish, Malaysian and Chinese part and don't really know the others. XDD

2.I used to like Omegle a lot only because I like to be a bitch to people I don't know without them knowing who I really am. :)

3.Whenever I feel down, I always listen to my iPod. And the one song I usually listen to when feeling low is Weightless by All Time Low

4. I had an emo stage. I think I got over it already but my siblings still call me emo because I listen to lots of rock/alternative/punk bands, do "emo" faces all the time and refuse to wear anything but black.

5. I love food. I really do. I love eating new dishes and I really love cooking.

6.The worst thing I did for love was lower my standards for a guy. Bad decision ever.

7.I am really shy. I don't talk that much when people are around and prefer to be my talkative and weird self when I'm with friends. And it's better that way because whatever comes out of my mouth always tend to shock people.

8.My computer got destroyed months ago so I only get to write my entries through my siblings' computers(and I usually have a time limit using their computers) and sometimes, even my iPod kahit if I get eye strains a lot because of it.

9.I recently have an obsession with scramble. IDK why. The first time I ate it was last year and I hate it but now I just get so excited seeing a scramble stand. LOL

10.I've seen some pretty weird cockroaches in my old house: an albino one, conjoined twins, black and white striped ones(offsprings I think of the albino cockroach and its normal spouse. I saw the whole family together),one that crawls super duper fast(AS IN!!!), etc. I even like talking about them to this day. Haha eeeww.



I tag Rae and Beam(if only Beam goes OL. hahaha)

The Vinny Virus

A few weeks ago, my dashboard was flooded with tons of posts of Vinny Castronovo.



I was like, "Who the eff is this kid whose pics are flooding my dashboard?!?! I demand to know!!!"

Okay fine. I was also like, "What a handsome kid." Hahaha :''>

I never really bothered to search on the net who he really was because one: I was distracted with Tumblr and two: Tumblr is distracting me. Maybe I did plan to, but I forgot. I dunno. I got distracted. :P

Then that faithful(chos. FAITHFUL PA! XD)day came when my friend asked me if I knew ABDC:

Me: "Uhm.... I don't know what you're referring too but I do know my alphabets :)"

Friend: "Hahaha. I mean America's Best Dance Crew".

Me: "Ahhh Yan ba?" (Haay naku. I should've known naman that she didn't mean ABCD as in the alphabets but ABDC as in America's Best Dance Crew. LOL)

Around that time, she and my other friend told me to like this fan page and I realized why they were so into ABDC; VINNY CASTRONOVO! HA! I realized after liking the page who he really was: He's a dancer and he and his crew are competing in ABDC. From what I know, his crew, ICONic Boyz, are part of the top 3 right now. It helps that he's kinda cute(just because I had a history on liking a younger guy doesn't mean I like him okay. hehe)

So I was impressed with this kid. Big deal................till I watched this vid on Youchoob. Let's just say I am officially diagnosed with the ICONic Fever AND also had gotten the Vinny Virus. Okay, so I found his crew's dancing a bit sloppy but no doubt they dance great enough for me to be amazed.

I always found him kinda good looking but now I actually think he's really cute(as in shit-ang-gwapo-mo-crush-kita kind of cute). :P :P :P I thought it was weird that I am liking this 14 year old guy but then there are girls my age who too caught the Vinny virus. I can't stress it enough; he's just cute, okay and I can't help but gush about it. (Much to my bff's dismay. hahaha)



What I hate though is that most of the time the ICONic Boyz are being interviewed, he's always standing in the back not saying a thing! Daig pa sya sa pader! Kainis! But when he DOES get to talk, I get kinda kilig and stuff. :P :P :P (Mind you, I feel awkward talking about these kinds of stuff ahahaha).

I find this kid pretty dreamy, too. :'''>



I don't know why, but I always hear the goddamn Going Bulilit theme on my head whenever I see him. But when he talks, he's like the frickin Godfather(super baba the voice may matching accent pa). Seriously, he's so chubby and cute. It's like he ate a plateful of Cannoli. :)

Regardless of what I just shared in this entry about me having a new guy obsession on Vinny, I still heart this gay...I mean guy. :D (sowee)



And this guy



Oooh. And this guy.



SIGE NA. LAHAT NA, GILLIAN. IKAW NA. IKAW NA MAY MARAMING GUSTO

Why I Blog

So yeah, I blog. I like writing(although it's more like punching keys on the keyboard to me these days). I never thought in a million years I'd have a blog let alone be a serious blogger to that.

I started blogging through Multiply and my only experience in writing consist of essays I make in school(and even had great grades to match). I am too scared of looking at my old posts there now since the way I write before wasn't really the best(and my nene pics there horrify me) although the topics I wrote about were pretty great(like this one I wrote about my first experience doing Zipline)and even though I could've edited better then, the way I wrote about stuff made me quite....happy. Free, even. Parang like that chick in the Dulcolax commercials who spins around in her airy dress because she felt so much joy except for me, I felt joy for writing and and not like her who only felt joy because she was able too shit that day. Even if I felt truly happy doing it, I still wasn't into blogging.

Me starting a new blog here on Blogger was a decision made out of boredom. Truth be told, I don't remember the reason why I started a blog here. It was Jan 2010. I remember only writing one entry then. I didn't really like blogging so I left this blog dead for quite a long time. I would write occasionally, but never enough and often.

It was only this year I got into blogging. I realize it's one of my creative outlets.I sing but it annoys the hell out of my siblings if I sing in the room(I do think I sound better than the kawaii sounding anime songs they hear). I act but I haven't been on school plays for quite some time now(pero magcocomeback din ako very soon. Haha. Feeling Nora Aunor). I dance but I come out moving like Robosapien than Martha Graham(I bet she weeps in her grave when I make hataw). I draw but the only drawing I could ever make and win awards with is my stick man drawings(Proud ako, okay? Hihi). I paint but only my nails(and it isn't even expert application :|). Now, I write and I absolutely love it.

I like that I blog about lots of things: celebs, fashion, music, current events and sometimes even personal stuff about me. Most of the stuff I talk about here are stuff I don't typically discuss with my siblings. They get bored if I speak of Lagerfeld and roll their eyes when I tell them my opinion about this event. I blog about rants, too! hehe

I sometimes wonder why some people blog. It's because some people I know "blog" to gain followers and popularity. It annoys me. And I also wonder if I have real followers. I only have a few but then I still question some of them about their sincerity in following my blog. Did they follow me because of my blog or only because to ask me to follow them back? Because the one thing I hate is people who pull the "I-followed-you-so-follow-me-back" kind of trick. I have two blogs; this one here on Blogger and another one on Tumblr and people do that all the time to me. I wonder nga if they actually read my blog every time they ask me to follow them back.

I know it will make your blog a bit more popular and it is exciting to know you have a huge following but that shouldn't be the main reason you blog in the first place. You should blog to express yourself or what you think of the world and not because you want to be sikat. Di ganun yun, kapatid. I won't call you a true writer and bloggers should be writers. A true writer for me is someone who isn't fazed by the fact that he/she has fans but cares more about the articles he/she writes about. I could easily tell the difference between a writer who really likes to write and a writer who just writes for people's attention.

I have to admit, yes, like lots of bloggers I do wish to have more followers but I could honestly say that I don't think that it's really important. Don't get me wrong; I love my "real" followers but I write for myself and not really for anyone. What's the point in trying to make an audience happy if I am not happy with what I wrote? I am part of my audience and I am the person whose opinion matters the most. Second is my bestie's opinion(Did I mention that I appreciate her support? Sure beats having 50 "followers" any day). Yes, it does make me happy when I gain a follower and a true follower to that but I am perfectly content with having a fast net connection, a lust for writing and an account here on Blogger. :D

Guess Who's Going To Be on The Hunger Games Movie?

ALEXANDER LUDWIG



MAY HIMALA! :O



He's even jumping for joy! Ayieee. (Isn't it weird that he's Canadian and the backdrop of this pic is the American flag? Wala lang. Share)

Lionsgate probably thought I was making too much kulit to them to cast him in the movie(more specifically, cast him as Peeta) that they rang him up for Cato.

See? I know they'll give in to me somehow. :)) Ako pa! LOL

It was announced last May 11 that Alexander will play the burly and villainous Cato, who is Katniss and Peeta's most feared opponent in the 74th annual Hunger Games. Woohoo! Kontrabida role FTW! (Though I still think Ludwig was robbed of the bida role of Peeta. Boo)

I'm happy because Alexander Ludwig will finally have a movie. I'm a fan of his(a duh)and it's about time he has a film! Unfortunately, I have to wait till March 2012. I waited two years for his return dammit. Gaaah!



I like the girl they chose for Cato's tribute partner, the pscychotic yet fierce Clove(Isabelle Fuhrman). Don't let that pretty face above fool ya. You'll probably remember this:



AAHHHHH! Sana hindi na lang. Kataquote eh.

But anyhoo, great choice of actress because I was able to catch The Orphan a few weeks ago. She's a damn good actress(while I'm a damn scared lady)



They look more like Peeta and Katniss, if you ask me but no doubt a good casting for Cato and Clove. Is it me or eto lang ang ginawang tama ng Lionsgate? Hahaha. If you wanna discuss, comment box is just below. :)

NOTE: I would've posted this entry sana a day or two ago if Blogger didn't act so shitty. :X. Blogger, I love you, but don't do that to me--and all of your users--again!

What Justin Thinks of The Philippines (PLUS how his concert went last night)

What does he thinks of this country? Does he like the hospitality of the people here? Does he find the culture here amazing? Blah blah blah blah blah?



If you're asking JB--who asked out Rihanna and Alexa Chung and got turned down by both ladies--he thinks the Philippines has beautiful women: "What do I have to say about the Philippines? There are a lot of beautiful women here."

YAN LANG?!?!?!?!

In fairness, this is the girl he's going home to:



Kung di kayo sold sa sinabi ko, tignan nyo to:



This is how Selena reacted. Selos Selena



Now this is how Miley reacted. Mad Miley.



Rebecca Black is showing some disbelief to what I'm saying. Uh...I couldn't think of a funny nick for her like Miley and Selena, sorry.



Rihanna's so disappointed she missed her chance on Justin. Couldn't think of a funny nick for her either


here I am being random and stuff




NOTE: I gotta give kudos to the guy. I heard that last night he was supposed to cancel his MOA concert(and no, it wasn't raining last night)because he was as "sick as a dog". He kept vomiting between songs. Even TMZ reported it.



I also feel kinda awful for him. I mean, a lot of fans didn't like the concert and is criticizing Justin. WTF, man? He was sick. I know he should've cancelled it but this was a one night thing and y'all would've gotten angry at him either way if he really did cancel the concert in the first place.

The luckiest girl in the world(at least, to Bieber fans):the one less lonely girl he
sang to on stage Huwag na kayo maging selos.



People also said that Justin called the Manila crowd "lame". Well, bless his soul BUT MAY HE ROT IN HELL! LOLJK. I know people were giving him love last night but probably he just noticed the VIP(read: all the rich kids) eh, umupo lang sila. They didn't seem like they were feeling the music. Ganun pala pag sosyal ah. If Justin doesn't come back, then you people are doomed. I am doomed. I missed the Paramore concert. I missed the NeverShoutNever/We The Kings/The Maine concert and now I missed JB's. Kung di sya bumalik sa Pinas, lagot kayo sa akin
