so i realize i haven't written in here for a long time. i think i've been writing more in my diary, speaking of which, it's (finally) almost full. kinda crazy since that dates back to 2005 i think? i've got another one in there tho that i use interchangeably so yahhh LoL.

summer was chill. janrick came and stayed for a month or so and that was cool coz he's adorable. i still talk to him pretty often. i had work too, and picked up a few extra shifts now and then. working the kids' room was fun. knocked off 2 classes by taking them at acc so that was good. i could've done a lot more, and i was supposed to go to singapore but the normal stuff got in the way of the former, and h1n1 for the latter.

present time.

basically, i've gotten into this whole getting more involved business. i've got a few solid orgs i enjoy. PSP is just awesome, and BFFs is cool coz of all my friends in it. I'm still trying with FSA, been assigned adings and all that so I hope that works out. I haven't been playing with RRWSL yet. last week it got rained out + i had my workshop, this week i'm still sick and i really would not like a relapse.

my schedule is AWESOME. 4-day weekend ftw ;) i really need it this week so that i recover from this viral URI thing that really is getting on my nerves LoL. my classes rock. i love my major, and enjoy learning all the neat stuff my professors have to share with us. seriously, though, having like a final and a half is awesome. my job's cool too. interesting company, chill people. it's all good.

i keep talking it up, but for sure there are downsides. for one, i'm sick and i'm like struggling coz i'm missing all sorts of stuff (Jason Mraz, and possibly today's Tech game to name a few). plus i guess i've been stressing my body too hard and thus my susceptibility to disease. plus the weather's been iffy, tho it has been nicer lately. i've got lots of work to do, which i could barely stay on top of pre-virus. now it just looks insurmountable.

social life isn't something i usually deal with on here, but suffice it to say that that's pretty good too. you'll just have to break into my room and violate my privacy by reading my diary to get more details. or, you could just ask me LoL.

yup, that's my update. i'm honestly surprised i hadn't written in here sooner :P

i haven't blogged for a while.  i've thought of blogging.  driving back home, my mind goes over what had happened through the day and other random thoughts and i decide i should blog!  this happens before i fall asleep too, while my mind shuts down.  i just haven't gotten around to it.  i think i wrote in my diary though.  i read somewhere that it takes your brain time to shut down after using the computer or watching tv because of the light and stuff, thus my choice of using my diary.  plus, i usually just write and write, confident that noone else will ever read my secrets.  at least, hopefully, while i'm still alive.  when i read back to things i've written in the past i always criticize myself.  i guess it helps - you can see how you've changed, grown, learned.  it's always good to see that you've learned from past mistakes.  this blog is sorta different, since i've been aware that it's public.  this post, i'm writing more like i write in my diary - random thoughts all getting spewed out - still held back though.  there are still thoughts i keep to myself.  sometimes i set posts to private, or write in filipino.  it depends.  in the end, though, i just write for myself.  just get it out, sometimes it helps me think things through.

i'm tired.  during winter break, i resolved to get more invovled in school activities.  i think i've gone more for quantity than quality though.  i guess i can just pick and choose later on.  i have a job now too!  then there's other aspects of my life that i have to try to balance (read: social aspects ~ friends, family, etc).  oh, and there's school work too.

you'd think i need time for myself.  i realize though, that everything i do is for myself.  i do need time to rest and eat, and i try to make sure i do that.  i still go to the gym, and get exercise.  still, everything i'm involved in and all that, it's because i want it to be that way.  i just have to make it work.

yey.  super random blog entry!  just kept switching thoughts and stuff.

this time change thing is weird -_-;;

so i've found a new artist that i like.  well 2 in the last week - my brother reminded me of lily allen (i say reminded because i think i've heard her before, but now i've rediscovered her.)

the second artist is a bit similar (to lily allen, and regina spektor), her name is Lucy Schwartz.  it's her song that i've embedded above.  I heard a song of hers while watching the movie "The Women" (which was awesome by the way - I love how there were no men in the movie).  I actually like that song better than the one I've embedded, but since there's no official vid here's the link.  The lyrics follow. I couldn't find any using google, so I just went old school.

Beautiful performed by Lucy Schwartz

Wake up, it's a beautiful day
A bit early but I like it that way
You stop looking and it falls into place
So here I am

So down we keep moving too fast
Live now before the moment has passed
you by
My baby, let's make it last

Yah, here I am

I'm feeling beautiful
I'm feeling beautiful
I'm feeling beautiful today

Let's go take the world for a spin
The water's warm and we're gonna jump in
to it
Can't wait for the rest to begin
Oh, here I am

I'm feeling beautiful
I'm feeling beautiful
I'm feeling beautiful today

Beautiful
(instrumental)
Feeling beautiful today

It's one of those pick-me-up songs , like "I Feel Pretty" (think Anger Management).  LoL. 

So yah, this is just a "rave" blog entry.
