25 things about me

From Facebook. Hahaha I was tagged like weeks ago and I wasn't planning on answering this thing but then I needed something else to do when my self-review is starting to turn my brain into lugaw so here it is! Hahaha

1. When it comes to dessert, if it's not chocolate it's not worth it. Even if it is caramel apples.

2.I love walking, and I love doing it alone with only my ipod for company. Eventhough my weight and physical appearance begs to differ. hahaha

3. I love makeup and maybe the reason I am into it so much is because I don't need a 24-inch waistline and fabulous long legs to look good in it.

4. I hate math and it hates me just as much so it's all good.

5. I'm a smeller (is there such a word? hahaha) and people who smell good oftentimes earn 50 pogi/ganda points with me.

6. I cannot resist a real good book bargain, especially if it's under 100 pesos. Dem yu booksale!!

7. I hate killing cockroaches because of the crunching sound it makes when you crush them with a chinelas. And cleaning up afterwards is messy.

8. I haven't worn nail polish for the past 4 years thanks to nursing. Even on my toes, but that's because I have ugly feet and the polish will emphasize their ugliness more

9. One of my closet ultra baduy fave songs is Alipin by Shamrock. And yes, I have more than one hahaha

10. I love animated movies and tweener shows and apparently the love for non-age appropriate media runs in the family because my dad loves to watch the shrek movies, fresh prince of bel-air, and the peanuts cartoons everytime the said movies and shows are on tv and my mom loves the hills. hahaha

11. I cannot leave the house without eyeliner or mascara on (save for the times that I wear my glasses instead of contacts) because I have a kuliti scar on my right eye that I'm a wee bit self-conscious about

12. I'm not really a beef person except when it's in tapa form or sliced into really thin strips like in Yoshinoya or Pepper Lunch

13. I don't know how to put on blush on or bronzer correctly because I never use those things on my face.

14. I almost always make sure that I have a book in my bag before I leave the house that's why I never did like tiny bags.

15. I love nanay games like Diner Dash, Luxor, Cake Mania, 7 Wonders of the Ancient World.

16. I sometimes go on dates with myself. Who else would know the right way to treat me but me? hahaha

17. I talk too much like most of the time but there are two fail-safe things that could shut me up: one is hunger, the other one is a super hot boy. Hahahaha

18. I do not like using text shortcuts. I like spelling out my words. That was before. Now I am forced to utilize this way of texting especially if I am in a hurry because I'm on prepaid now, I'm paying for my own load, and the 5 and 2 buttons of my fone are faulty.

19. My seatmate in first year high school was getting tired of me asking what was written on the board that he made me wear his glasses and that was when I realized that I needed a pair of my own. I have been wearing glasses since then.

20. I sometimes judge a book by its cover. That was why I bought the book Twilight in the first place. I didn't like it by the way. No offense to the people who did.

21. When I was in DLSU, I would always dress up during Wednesdays because of U-break. It's weird I know I mean the AIF guys and I don't even leave goks during the university-wide break anyway hahaha

22. I hate my hair, hated it since I was in grade 6. Oh I did love it on the two years that I had it rebonded though.

23. Majority of the bands/singers on my ipod are chicks. Because chicks rule! hahaha

24. I get insomnia attacks at least once a week. They always happen whenever I had to get up early the next day and I think that stresses me out, therefore I find it difficult to fall asleep.

25. A daily dose of www.fmylife.com keeps the doctors and the national center for mental health away.

Hodge podge.

Kill me now. Hahahaha. I'm too lazy to review. I thought that when I finally get my ATT and an exam date I would be more serious but no, almost a month till the said date and I still take frequent 1 hour breaks and I still do a maximum of 150 review questions and rationales. That's a hundred less than what the recommended number is at this point before the exam date. I think Kaplan reviewees were told that one has to answer at least 10,000 review questions in order to have a fighting chance of passing the NCLEX. I am in trouble then because I think I have answered a little over 1000.

On the other hand, I can't wait until the exam is over. Not that I am depriving myself completely of the things I enjoy doing. I mean I usually read a non-nursing book, play Rhythm Heaven (still can't get past the Glee Club argh), Elite Beat Agents, and Mario Kart on the DS, and go online on my frequent one hour breaks, and I usually postpone my self-review for American Idol on Wednesdays and Thursdays, but after the exam I can spend more time doing the said enjoyable things without feeling guilty afterwards. And without a time limit. Hahaha.

Been reading The Zahir on my said one hour breaks. And I think I'm getting a bit impatient with it.

For some reason, I just felt like reading my old livejournal entries last week I think, after I got home from Gino's birthday/gatecrashing Faye's house, and ugh I hate my 2002 self. Shet. Ewwww. It really is a good thing that we all grow as individuals hahahahaha.


It's been an effing hot week. Literally. I went out with the AIF people last night, and while we were waiting to be seated at Chili's, I was sweating. Inside GB5. Even the mall aircon is not as efficient anymore. Or maybe it was just me because I was speedwalking. Hahaha.  I wasn't able to finish my chicken sandwich because of the bottomless lemonade and unlimited nachos. I hould have gotten an appetizer or something. Hahaha kuripot mode. I had loads of fun though. I love love love the AIF people. My cheeks were hurting when I got home last night and my throat felt a little dry. Must be from all the laughing and talking we did last night. I really wish I could go HK and Macau with you guys on November actually we'll see after I get a real job ok?


Been LSS-ing on Up Dharma Down's Sana. It has been played on loop on my iTunes.


There really is nothing much to blog about in my life right now. I just wanted to waste time on the internet.
