Good Times, Good Times December 30, 2006
Posted by Mayee in : Daily Babble , add a commentAyon lang pala ang lunas sa anumang confusion / bitterness / angst… inuman. Wee!
(pinost na ‘to ni Gon, pero wala lang, I still wanna archive the memories.. hehe.)
So nung Thursday night finally natuloy ang aming long-awaited reunion ng high school barkada. Graaabe. I loved it talaga. Na-miss ko na lahat sila! Clauds, Meya, Gon, Cheka, Kathleen, Juancho, Philip, Santi, Badong, and Kevin were there. Yep, si Meya nakita ko na rin after the looooongest time.Grabe talaga. Parang ang surreal ng buong night, I enjoyed it so much.
We started late na.. 6pm dapat kami magkikita-kita kela Juancho to start the swimming and everything, pero late nagdatingan and everything.. tapos bumili pa kaming drinks (yeba!), order ng food, ayos ayos.. ayon, we started the fun past 10 na i think.
We had a lot of food.. nagdala ng palabok si gon, tapos bbq kay philip.. then nag-order pa kami ng 5 boxes of pizza (oo, ganon kadami) from lotsa.. hindi namin naubos sa sobrang dami.. at sobrang atat na magsimulang uminom.
FLAMING BLOWJOB! I love it talaga. Ingredients for a good flaming bj: mudslide, vodka, lighter. =) We did several shots each. Grabe, init talaga. and ang funny din magshot ng iba.. si badong may matching hinga pa. haha. Ayon, naubos namin yung bote ng mudslide at malaking bote ng vodka.
After the bjs we had granma naman. Shots ulit. At dun ako nagsimula maging tipsy. haha. Then we swam a little, did chit chat to catch up on each other’s life.. or kulitan lang.. haha.
Kaso biglang si claude had to go na.. so we accompanied her sa may bf gate para sumakay ng trike.. and grabe, the walk was one of the evening’s highlights.. kahit sad kasi uwi na si claude.. pero it was waaaay fun. si juancho nagwawala sa kalsada.. we were so noisy and it was already around 2 in the morning.. i think we woke people up. haha. si kevin nagpaka-immature.. nagdoorbell sa isang bahay.. ayon, nagtakbuhan kami kasi baka may lumabas at pagalitan kami! haha. ang saya talaga! And to think, tumutulo-tulo pa buhok ko nun dahil galing sa pool and didn’t get a chance to dry off.. nagsuot lang ng shirt at shorts over.
Then shots ulit! Goodness. Si philip tumutumba tumba na from diziness. ako tipsy na rin.. so i stayed in the pool.. at nangungulit na lang at nagkkwentuhan. The night was freakin cold. If it not for the fact na sobrang saya talaga pag kasama ang barkada, nag-freeze na ako sa lamig. haha. (connection?) Anyway.. ayon, ngarag kaming lahat after a while.. si juancho umalis.. natulog ata sa kwarto, ininjan kami. Then we had picture picture sessions sa kubo.. naglaro ng cards.. hanggang nag-umaga na.. nakatulog yung iba.. Hai basta, ang saya.. di ko na maalala kung ano talaga exactly mga nangyari.. :P hehe.
Nung umaga na, Cheka and I went back here at home to take a shower and change then nagmeet ulit kami with the rest at Sinangag Express sa phase 1 to have breakfast. Kahit ngarag na talaga kami we still had fun even there. Haha. Pinaglaruan nila yung panget na iced tea kasi di nila mainom.. =P Ayon, after an hour or two, naguwian na rin kami.. paguwi ko I wanted to sleep so bad pero di ako makatulog because of my allergies.. so mga late afternoon na ako nakatulog.
Then I woke up at around 10pm na. haha.
The price: Pagkahilo at sobrang nakakalokang kati ng allergies! haha.
Pero I really don’t care. Sobrang small price to pay talaga for a good time with my friends. I haven’t had that much fun in soooo long, especially sila ang kasama. =)
And I guess that’s all I needed para ma-alleviate ang mood ko. I swear, nawala ang kahit anong bitterness at confusion sa buhay ko. Sana palagi na lang ganito. =P (Kaso mamamatay ako sa allergies haha)
And yun lang, ang saya talaga. Parang isang panaginip ang mga pangyayari kagabi.. It was really so much fun.. nakakamiss yung days na ganun. Thanks talaga sa inyong friends ko for that. Sana talaga mangyari ulit soon.. very soon. hehe.
Hai. *happy* but tired, sleepy, dizzy, and itchy too. :P haha.
Till next time. Good night / morning. =)
Btw, pics will be up soon! nahihirapan lang ako magupload kasi ang dami. haha. :P
Can’t Get Back Up December 27, 2006
Posted by Mayee in : Daily Babble , add a commentLet me just say, I have dug my grave. It’s a really deep one and I can’t seem to find my way back out (figuratively speaking).
Last Eng’g Week (and the weeks before that), I let my acads slip A LOT and I think I am going to have a hell of a time trying to find my way back into, well, what it ought to be. I guess for now I can say it’s just the acads, but there’s sort of a lot more to it. Procrastination, not finding the drive to get up early enough in the morning, finding it hard to finish whatever it is I’ve started.. these are signs of a severely messed up life.
But enough about that!
I’ve been ranting so much on how stupidly fudged up my life is that I have in some way contributed to fudgeing it up even more. So now, I shall just (what’s the word?) live it out and see how it goes.
New Years’ is coming up and I’ve started to think about my New Year’s Resolution. I’m not the type who buys into that crap but now I guess it’s the perfect excuse to start afresh (yes, even though it’s well into the second semester of my second year in college). THERE’S HOPE FOR ME YET! I hope. rarr.
Mayee’s New Year’s Resolutions:
1) I will eat breakfast in the morning.
2) I will get up early enough in the morning to EAT breakfast.
3) I will NOT be late for class. EVER. (oh dear)
4) I will NOT cut class for reasons I have decided are insufficient to be considered excusable.
5) I will NOT consider LAZINESS as a good enough excuse
6) MAG-AARAL NA AKO. (yeaaaah right! bwahahaha)
7) MAG-IIPON NA AKO. (even more bwahahahaha)
8) Mag-aayos na ako ng kwarto.
*OUCH*
Why OUCH? coz I think I hurt myself from laughing too hard while reading that list again. AHAHAHA. Not that I’m not going to try, but really.. Knowing myself.. (ack. and here it is, disbelief in myself. so what’s the use, really?)
——————And on the brighter side of things..
Excited na ako for tomorrow. Swimming time! Inuman ulit.. yay! =) (yipes, wala na akong swimming outfit! Ginamit na ni Aaron! haha. Gotta buy me a new one. heehee.)
Babay!
Confusication December 27, 2006
Posted by Mayee in : Daily Babble , add a commentSo what do I do with my life now? I have nothing much to brag about in my life right now.. and quite frankly I don’t know where I’m headed. Ask me where I picture myself in 5 - 10 years. I wouldn’t have a freaking idea. And really, I don’t think about it much. When I do start to think about it, I throw the idea away, push it back to the recesses of my mind (if i have one).
Right now I am in a good (am I understating?) university, I’m taking up a course which will launch me into a field where talent is highly in-demand, I am a member of an excellent organization from which I have juiced the fun-filled days of my college life, and I have a (relatively) good-enough social life.
But it’s just not what I want.
Although what I DO want I have yet to sequentially list / sort (and print?), I know it’s not exactly this, and that I’m just lacking something that would lead me there.
I know (or at least I have been mislead to believe) that what I have right now is enough to be so thankful for, and don’t get me wrong, I am VERY thankful for all of it. But can you blame someone for wanting something ELSE? not necessarily MORE? Maybe I don’t want to be in a good university, maybe I don’t want to be seen as just this know-it-all little braggart, maybe I’m sick of all this.. this.. conflict, maybe I want to be somewhere where I can just be myself and feel good about it.
I dunno, just a thought. I’m still at a state of confusion right now. I don’t know this place’s zip code so if you wanna reach me, well, you can’t.
Headache Insomnia December 24, 2006
Posted by Mayee in : Daily Babble , 2commentsI have never EVER had that much VODKA in my entire life.
Good grief.
My head hurts.
And for some reason I can’t sleep.
Perhaps it’s because of the gazillion thoughts running through my head right now.
Oh yeah, I’m no longer bitter.. I’m confused.
And my head aches. Yeah, I already said that. Tipsy.. I must say.
That’s the last time I’m ever having “Flaming Blowjob”.. ever. Haha. (To the less-informed, “Flaming Blowjob” is an alcoholic drink.. chocolate liquor with vodka lit to a little blue flame on top… it’s not whatever you thought it was. Green kayo!)
Waah. I itch like hell. And my head aches! Gaaah.
It’s Not So Bad After All December 23, 2006

Push the door, I’m home at last and I’m soaking through and through
Then you handed me a towel and all I see is you
And even if my house falls down now, I wouldn’t have a clue
Because you’re near me and
I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life
I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life.
-”Thank You”, Dido
What do I want? I don’t know what I want. Not anymore.
Eng’g Week in Detail December 20, 2006
Posted by Mayee in : Daily Babble , 1 comment so farTHURSDAY - DECEMBER 7
–Smoker’s Night. Even though this was just one of the initial events for my first ever Eng’g Week, I already got the feel of what the rest of Eng’g Week would be like. People from different organizations were as fanatic as I had never seen. (For those who are unfamiliar with this amazing event, here’s a little info on it) Smoker’s Night is one night where orgs get to put on a stage performance and bash (for lack of a better word) other orgs. It’s as immature as it can get but what the hey, it was super fun to see what other orgs would throw at us. I found myself shouting in support for our org. If I weren’t really into my org, magsasawa ako sa kakasigaw ng “SEXY!!”. So anyway, the event started a bit late, and ended late too, I got back to the dorm at around midnight already, thank heavens for my late permit (which I learned was very handy for the rest of Eng’g Week). For our performance I was one of the voice overs. We sang part of “American Dream” as a spoof of IE Club’s Awitan performance the previous year. We didn’t place, but I loved it. =)
FRIDAY - DECEMBER 8
–Jammeng’g. (A sort of Battle of the Bands thing) I didn’t get to watch the first few bands to perform because Yen, Joan, and I were at Ino’s house doing some brainstorming for awitan choreo. When we got back to UP, it was CURSOR 1’s performance already. And I just have to say, they were terrific if not superb! Ang galing talaga nila, grabe. I really really really admire their talent. I only got to watch them perform “Say A Little Prayer”, though. Still, ang galing. =) Since the actual event started late (yet again), I got back to the dorm at around 2:30 AM. I enjoyed the guest bands that performed too.. there was Stonefree, Mayonnaise, Menaya, and some other band that sounded plain freakin weird. And that was Jammeng’g.
MONDAY - DECEMBER 11
The day I almost exploded from uber tension. I had 3 main events that day.
–Poetry Writeng’g. Joelle, Myles, and I were the heads of this CURSOR-sponsored event. Since I had still gone to Math class that morning just for the attendance, I rushed the printing of the scoresheets and the criteria for judging of the entries. Plus, we hadn’t found enough judges for that event yet, it was all just crazy. Talk about running around, going here and there, up, down, (inside, outside?), everywhere. Haha. But it all turned out good.. Some of the poems they submitted were actually good, and some.. well, let’s just say they really took their poetic license seriously.
–Dulaan. We had been practicing a lot for this event. I played the part of Malou, a filipina who was brought to Japan and worked as a prostitute for Yakuza.. It was hard for me, since I have never acted, not once in my entire life.. plus there were parts where Malou’s lines were uber emotional, and I had to sort of “hurt” myself.. and act really sick and all that. I think I gave a good enough performance that day though.. Unfortunately, we just ended up third place. It was a great effort still.
–Awitan. My most awaited event. After Dulaan I was just hyper. Excited, nervous, anxious, everything! All at the same time. We were cramming even up to the last little moments.. and it was just.. crazy exciting! For those who do not know anything about awitan, it’s this competition between org’s choirs where they sing one required piece and one chosen piece. It was also my first time to be part of a choir.. and even more surprising that this first time would be in a competition. We were to perform 9th.. and the waiting was just MAD! I could feel the nervousness in the dressing room.. while having last minute rehearsals and make-up and costume fixing and whatever else you could do at the last minute. Hehe. But when our turn came, it all just went away. There was just our performance. I really don’t want to relive that moment because it was quite frustratiing for us.. but still, I loved the whole experience. GO awitanerz!
WEDNESDAY - DECEMBER 13
–Indakan. Another major event that people really look forward to watching every Eng’g Week. It’s a dance competition between the finest of the finest dancers from each org. There was the pairs competition and the group competition. Grabe! Ang galing nilang lahat sumayaw! You really would not believe that this was coming from Engineering Orgs. Ang lupet talaga! It was really entertaining watching the whole thing. Especially since I loooove dancing. I would’ve wanted to dance there too, but I don’t think I have what it takes. Haha. (Hanggang frustration ko na lang yun. Sigh.)
FRIDAY - DECEMBER 15
There was still a major event that thursday, Maskipaps(the fashion show thing) but I didn’t watch coz I tried finishing my MP which was due the next day. So let’s skip to Friday, Ms. Eng’g!!
–Ms. Engineering. Ahh the Engineering Week grand finale. Ms. Engineering is a beauty contest.. FOR GUYS dressed as women. Haha. I think it was just a matter of who had the most courage to flaunt their inner woman. Aaron did superb as Ms. Cursor! Ganda talaga. And the gowns and bathing suits were really really nice too! Daig pa ang mga kababaihan ng Eng’g. =P This started late too, bulok talaga ang sistema. haha. So I got kind of sleepy during the pageant.. but org spirit always woke me up. Plus that video of the Ms. Eng’g contestants as guys was, well, nakakaaliw talaga. =)
There were a hundred more events during Eng’g week, these were just the major ones. Every day saw kalat at every tambayan, students cheering and playing at events instead of going to class (woops!), but most of all, the whole college having SO MUCH FUN! And as for my very first Eng’g Week experience, I learned so much.. hard work, teamwork, love for the org, they all contribute to every little EWOC point we earned. And even though we were just 3rd after everything, that exceeded our expectations. Kala namin wala na, meron pa pala! I loved it. =) Gusto mag Eng’g Week ulit! hehe.
Out of Reach December 20, 2006
Posted by Mayee in : Daily Babble , add a comment
Just came home a few minutes ago from Festival Mall. I was with Joelle. We watched Happy Feet. Honestly I was a bit disappointed at the movie, it wasn’t as good a movie as I had been hoping it would be. I guess the trailers were promoting a better movie than what actually was.
But before I go on I shall narrate the events that transpired before this happy trip. I was up until about 4:30 this morning, putting finishing touches on my MP in CS32 that has been long overdue. And even though I was up that late I still didn’t finish the docs and everything. To make a long story short, I finished the damn thing at around 12 noon, then left for U.P. to submit.. then came back home. It took me a good 5 hours to go to diliman and back, really. What a waste of time. Good grief.
Well anyway, at around 6:30 I went to Festival to meet with Joelle.. then happy feet, then a little strolling along the mall.. then finally settled at Seattle’s Best Coffee, where we spent a fair 2 and a half hours just talking. Talking about life, love, the absence of christmas spirit due to excessive bitterness. Yes, I am still bitter. I don’t know about what exactly, but that’s just the way it is. Sometimes people get bitter. Haha.
Then on Friday it’s CURSOR’s Christmas Party. Something I think I’m looking forward to if it were not for the big amount I would have to shell out just to come. But it’s all good. A party’s a party.
Whatever happened to “the best things in life are free?”
Darn. I haven’t even finished my Christmas Shopping yet and the parties are pouring in. Even to this I am a procrastinator. *Sigh* When will I ever learn. New Year’s Resolution? I hope.
That’s it for now, I have more to say but I have already written it down in my journal, so.. nevermind. =P heehee. Goodnight. 5 days on the Countdown.
