No life.

I apparently have no life. I go to bed at, what, three o'clock in the morning, and sleep for ten to twelve hours, which makes me get up at around one to three o'clock in the afternoon, and it's the same process every day. What do I do when I'm up? Mostly just playing Habbo Hotel, if not, then I'm looking for new bands and songs, if not, then I'm watching the Legend of Korra, if not, then I'm out in the city for dental check-up or roaming around SM which has become such a total bore. Oh, and there are times I'm outside playing badminton with either my mom or my cousin Kervey,  but I can't play forever since I get this mild headache. Gah, what a lame body I have. :/

I can probably say I miss my friends. I miss hanging out with Kerrvy, Trixia, Julie, Charisse, Jackie, Lyka, and also Shelamay and Mervin Ian. I mean, since it's summer, I don't get to see them so often, which makes things boring. I should probably start downloading a massive number of movies to get rid of this incredible feeling of boredom.

Oh, those friends. :(
And then we have "The Angels." As of The Angels, I refer to my cousins Laurie Ann, Sweet, and Carmela (she's not really my cousin, but my cousin Laurie Ann's cousin on her father's side), and my sister Hannah. Our cousin Abigail is also a part of The Angels, but she's never really there. :(


And here I am, alone in my room, going through the usual activities of Habbo Hotel and downloading illegally. Darn...

Work.

So, I've been doing nothing but working in Habbo (as you might consider as "playwork"). Not, it's not a real job, but I'm having fun "working" as an agent in Habbo Hotel. Well, I'm rather bored to death here at home, so why not have fun in Habbo Hotel? :)

As of yesterday, we went to the city because I had an appointment with the dentist, the usual thing. So, after that we, as usual, proceeded to SM. I, my sister, and my mom bought something very unusual, and it's used for swimming. Yeah, we're going on vacation this May, and I'm not sure if using shorts and t-shirt can be used in swimming pools over there. So, well, we bought swim suits, each of us. Well, I'm not really a fan of the bikini and bra swim attire, mainly because I don't have the sexiest body, so I bought something more "modest". It's more like a black top, rather than a bra, if you know what I mean. Hahaha, and yeah, it was the same for us three. None of us bought bra. It's not really... comfy. o.o

There was this huge Lego land! I miss playing with Lego, used to play it a lot with my sister when we were kids. :))
And we ate frozen yoghurt in Tutti Frutti! :))
And as of these days, it has a lot of sleeping. I get to bed early in the morning (around two to three o'clock), and sleep for twelve hours maximum. Yeah, teenagers require at least ten, but I always sleep two hours more. :))


Anyway, lately I've been keeping up with the Legend of Korra. I have also been downloading a lot of music, so I've been listening to new songs that are quite awesome.

Song of the day.

I came across one song when I was checking out the latest videos of Nuclear Blast's (EU) YoutTube. Now, this song's entitled Lionheart by Bury Tomorrow. I decided to listen to it, and to be quite honest, I like it. I don't like metalcore, but it seems as if that one's got me impressed. I suppose since I started listening to The Agonist, I've started fancying clean vocals and metal growls combined in a song.


I'm not sure if this song will lead me into metalcore, but I rate this 6/10. :)

Defy +.

I and my sister have been looking for this ice cream on a stick for some time now. Well, this ice cream is not JUST an ice cream on a stick. It costs a whole PhP50 for each pack of Magnum. We found a freezer full of Magnum in Metro at the end of the day, and of course we were curious, making us buy each for ourselves. Don't get us wrong, but yes, we do find it a little weird that just an ice cream on a stick would cost PhP50, but how can we know if we don't taste for ourselves and see if it's worth it?

Anyway, speaking of today, I do have "news". You know how I've complained about my current phone, Nokia N8? Well, some days ago, when I and my sister walked around Cyber Zone in SM, we walked by this Motorola Booth, and I spotted some nice phones. Kervey had also recently talked about my cousin ate Celine's waterproof phone, Motorola Defy, and how he had fun using it when they went swimming in a pool somewhere. Of course, I love swimming, and I've always wanted a waterproof camera. But now, there's a waterproof phone! Then I decided to have a look on it today. There's also this Motorola Defy +, and the saleslady, which was mom's neighbor before (what a coincidence), told us it was  very good phone, and that I wouldn't regret buying it.

So, sure. Since I still have a little cash left, I actually bought it. I mean, come on, a waterproof PHONE? I won't miss on that! Since it's summer, and there's a lot of swimming, why not? I've always wanted a waterproof camera, but now I've got a waterproof phone. :))

YAY!
Speaking of Magnum, I'm not quite sure what to say about it. It tastes delicious, that without any doubts, of course. I do believe it's worth the price though, since the vanilla ice cream and the chocolate coating are thick. The chocolate coating is very delicious though, Belgian Chocolate. But, I don't think I'm going to buy Magnum anymore. I mean, it is delicious. It's kinda just pricey.

Magnum Almond.
Speaking of summer, I got to buy two pairs of shades today! I mean, I don't really wear shades mainly because I was afraid I would look stupid. But I suppose I overcame that fear, so yeah. :))

Believe, me those two pictures on the left are more like "I want to take a picture of myself to see how I look." So, pardon me. :))
And another thing, my sister Hannah has been talking me into this Nikon D3200, and she's kind of "forcing" me to buy it. I'm not really that into photography since I'm not really good with it, but she's insisting that I will be developing my skill overtime if I do devote my time to actually take pictures. Still, I'm not quite sure. But, come on, it's a freaking awesome camera. A freaking 24 megapixel DSLR. I mean, I don't know, DSLR cameras have become very mainstream lately. It might just be a waste of money, but I still kind of want it. We'll see... :))

With a freaking mic... NOW THAT'S AWESOME!

The Legend of Korra.

Yesterday, I just pretty much stayed at home and did nothing much. Went to Metro for awhile with my parents and cousin Vincent, and went back home. Yeah, and lately, again, I've been starting to download a bunch of music and movies, so guess who's the pirate now? Hahaha :))

I have tons of tabs open, as you can see. Not only tabs, but also windows. :))
That's what's left of my downloads. I'm quite curious about the Hunger Games movie, so we'll see about that. 
Anyway, I'm pretty sure some of you have read that I love The Legend of Aang, or a television series also known as Avatar: The Last Airbender. Yeah, I loved that television series pretty much, and now the new series, The Legend of Korra, has been aired on Nickelodeon (which I completely missed). Or well, the first two episodes, Welcome to Republic City, and A Leaf in the Wind. And yes, you guessed, I'm currently downloading both episodes. Just... why shouldn't I?


Speaking of my everyday life, my sister's cute, little dog Snowy, has given birth to three puppies. Sadly, two of them died on the way home from Alcoy (she gave birth to the two on the bus). So, the one who's left is named Alcoy, which I suppose is easy to understand why that name was given.


Right now, I'll be watching the first episode of The Legend of Korra, since it's done downloading. I hope it's  going to be awesome. :)

I had  to screenshot this. (1) Earth,  (2) fire,  (3) air,  (4) water. ♥

To Alcoy.

We went back to Alcoy today to go swimming. I had a lot of fun even if it rained a multiple times and the sun didn't peek out so much. No seriously, with this heat, sunshine isn't actually needed. My mom woke me up at around seven o'clock. I only got to sleep for four hours because... I... slept late... at around three o'clock in the morning. HAHA so much for taking care of myself. :))

We started driving at eight o'clock, and came to Alcoy at ten o'clock. There was a lot of people there, and the sky was gray. We had our early lunch, and we set off to swimming. I took with me my swimming goggles because, of course, it's the sea I'll be swimming through, and there's a lot more to see there than the tiles of a swimming pool. It was absolutely amazing, there were a lot of corals and tiny fishes, and that was really interesting. Well, at one point it was as scary as fuck. Let me show you some photos:

In the mini bus, on the way to Alcoy. I sat by the window, and feeling the breeze was AWESOME. :))
Swimming! At first, I had my hair tied back (mainly because my mom was concerned about my hair being straightened and could possibly get damaged). But I got conscious over my body, so I took my hair down. It doesn't matter, my hair got wet anyway. :)) 
Skimboarding! :3
I tried to, first time, but I literally failed. HAHA, was fun though.
We love chilling on this small, traditional fishing boat. :)
My cousin Laurie and Ralph got stabbed in their feet from these sea urchins. My cousin Vincent went around swimming with Kervey and Mark taking up these creatures. As you can see, they found a star fish as well. :))

And for the "scary" part, I, Amille, Laurie, Sweet, ate Tiny, and Hannah were chilling out in that floating cottage. I kept jumping into the "pool" thing of the cottage where there were many fishes swimming around. Then they decided to go to the back part of the cottage to catch some fishes with Laurie and Amille's fishnet blouses. I jumped into the water and didn't really look at what was behind me, but rather concentrating on the fishes. When I surfaced, ate Tiny said, "It's pretty deep down there." I was wondering how deep it was, so I decided to look for myself. I took a deep breath and went under, and saw something that actually did scare the shit out of me. The ocean floor just suddenly vanished in a rather dark depth, and I was racing towards the cottage, trying to get up. It was pretty shitty. I haven't actually seen anything like that... I mean not clearly.

The Floating Cottage, as which I call it. :))
That's exactly how it went. :))
I actually tried drawing what it looked like, but it seems as if I've failed there. Oh well, scary? Yes.

Video blog fail.

For awhile ago, I tried making a video blog. But, I literally failed each time because I actually don't have much to say rather than the stupid excuses why I haven't blogged yesterday. We pretty much stayed at home, and I was playing video games as usual. At around four o'clock, I and my mom played badminton (for the fun of it). I mean, I could use some exercise and movements. So, that's pretty much what I did yesterday.

Today, however, we went to the city. I had my after-two-weeks check-up at the dentist today, and it seems as if I'm going to get a new expander (since my current doesn't have so much effect anymore). I also got to buy two new swimming shorts for this coming May. Me and my family will be spending a vacation somewhere, but I won't be telling you where yet. And, going to the city has just started to become really boring lately, I don't know why, but we don't do anything than just walk around and still end up being bored.

Fooling around with the webcam of my laptop. Couldn't get any great video blogs. :/
Anyway, tomorrow, we'll be going swimming again with the whole family. We're going back to Alcoy like last time. Oh yes, I will definitely enjoy. I will bring my swimming goggles this time so I can see clearly under the water. Speaking of the water, it's pretty clear out there. I'm pretty excited actually. Oh well, I don't really have so much to blog about at the moment. I suppose it's because there's really nothing much happening around. I can't say I'm out of ideas at all because I've got tons of them. I'm just... lazy. :)

Third day.

For the past three days, I've gone to CIT to complete my enrollment. There's a lot of people there, and I suppose many are getting enrolled for college (plus they have high school, elementary, and preschool as well). I'm just happy that I'm done, and now the only thing I lack is my uniform. We bought two packs of cloths for the uniforms, and one pack is equivalent to one uniform. Now, we only need to look for someone to actually sew the uniforms, and I suppose it won't be that hard since my mom know someone. I actually got up around seven o'clock or so this morning, since we were immediately going to CIT after driving my sister to her school.

The only reason why we went that early is because, yes, the number of people. When we arrived, there were already a decent number of them, so we started moving around. I wrote my signature on this tablet they had there (which was fucking unexpected to me), and well, it was for my ID. Then we bought the cloths needed for the uniforms and bought to packs, and had to pay at the accounting area. The worst part now was that we had to get a priority number and wait for our number to show up on that television they had there. Our number was 827, and when I and mom sat down, it was still around 600. We sat there for awhile, but decided to leave to eat breakfast. Sure, we ate breakfast at McDonald's, the least chosen place for anyone to eat breakfast. But you know, that was the nearest there was to CIT.


So when we came back, it was in around 712, but at least it's nearer and we got to eat. When we finally finished paying, we went to the Students Affair Office and received the two packs. But the fucked up thing was that I lost my Study Load, which was one of the most important papers I had to have. My mom was pissed, and we were already on the way home, somewhere in Pardo, when my mom told dad that we had to turn and look for it. So we actually went back, and we found it at the SAO. Well, at least... :))

There you can see what my college uniform will look like. Yeah, pants for the win!

Thick lines.

So, I finally got enrolled in CIT. The only thing I lack now is my uniform. I suppose I can sort of say that I'm officially a student in CIT, and will be starting two months from now. HAHA! I've gotten my study load, or in other words, my schedule of classes for my first semester. Seems promising.

Schedule. :3

Anyway, it was sort of tiring to go up and down the ramps of one of the buildings of CIT. I finally took the entrance exam and got the result of my IQ as above average and English as just average (I must have really fucked up). But the best part was that I got accepted to CIT, and that's good enough for me! So, I took the entrance exam at eleven to twelve o'clock earlier, then the results would be released at two thirty. So, we went to pick up Hannah, and ate lunch in Sbarro in Ayala. Was pretty good though. We went around the department store for awhile, where I picked up a black nail polish (finally). Well, my sister bought three small bottles of different shades of blue, and I fell in love with two of them (since I love icy blue and green blue). What I did was to paint a thick line on the center of my nails, alternately, and it reminded me of Alissa White-Gluz's dress in the music video of Business Suits and Combat Boots. :))

Oh well, add some colors! :))

CIT-U.

I got up around nine o'clock or so this morning after my mom called me saying that I should take a shower and prepare myself. I forgot that I had just changed my ringtone, and it scared me a little when I heard the ringtone from the movie One Missed Call (Japanese). It made me get this energy to immediately answer the incoming call, haha!

Anyway, I took a shower and changed my clothes. Mom and dad came home, and it was already ten o'clock (the expected time for me to be in CIT). I didn't fuss so much about it though, because they still had the open office hours in the after (from two to five o'clock). I was done changing and was ready to leave, but then my mom wasn't quite done, so we waited for her. We arrived at about eleven thirty and I asked mom, "Shouldn't we wait until two o'clock? It's only thirty minutes until they close." But meh, she wouldn't budge and was all, "Meh, let's just go there."

The unexpected thing was, there were a bunch of people there today. Well, I should have expected that since easter's done. We fell in line in front of the Office of Admissions and Scholarships, and well, it took us more than twenty minutes until it was finally our turn. Gosh, I didn't know there was so much to do just to get enrolled in that school. Then we had to pay PhP250 for the entrance examination and for the picture (I.D). Then that was that. After the picture taking, the person who was taking our pictures and printing out our papers for the entrance examination said that there was no more available examinations (it was already around four o'clock). She asked me what time I would take the examinations tomorrow, nine, ten, or eleven o'clock. Of course, I picked eleven o'clock. :))

YAY! You can see the picture of me there. I couldn't wear the blouse (uniform) because it was small and it didn't fit me. :))
They actually spelled my name VERY wrong. I'm happy I got it corrected though, or else I would be known as Christian Madeliene forever! :(
 To describe the situation earlier, I actually drew some pictures for you. I met three of my previous classmates in IHMA, and they're all apparently going to study in CIT as well. I mostly talked to my old classmate, Vahn, who's planning to take up Industrial Engineering. We stood together watching some of the "new" students being photographed for their IDs. Not all had their final pictures though, because their shirts were obvious and sometimes they wore t-shirts with strong colors. Anyway, my two other classmates were Rudyliza and Romar, which I didn't really talk to so much (mainly because they were busy doing their own stuffs).


Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. We went there around eleven o'clock, and the office closed around twelve o'clock, so we had to wait. What we did was go to Shopwise and eat lunch there. We ate lunch in Da Vinci's (I suppose that was the name), and that was fine. My dad and cousin, Kervey, went to pick up Hannah from summer classes while we were waiting for the food. After that, we went back to CIT where we basically went back and forth. Damn, there were really many people there. :/

Sitting and waiting at Da Vinci.
On the way home though (at around five o'clock), we bought food from McDonald's (Drive Through). Well, we sort of got hungry by waiting the whole afternoon, so we decided to go to the nearest drive through! :)
So, I suppose tomorrow will be the day that I will finally take the entrance exam (which I figured out was an exam in English and an exam that measures your IQ). Oh, yes, English, I suppose I can't complain. I really can't, 'cause there's no math! :))

Awake.

It's currently 3:12 A.M, and here I am, awake and very much alive. I hate this, not being able to fall asleep right away. Yeah, I decided to take my laptop and do exactly what I'm doing now. This is not fun, especially when you know you have to get up early. I have to get up early because I have to take this entrance exam for college later on, and I am going to get enrolled in CIT/CIT-U (Cebu Institute of Technology - University).

I don't want to give reasons why I'm going to study there, because I suppose people won't understand why anyway. Well, let me just state one reason; I believe I can relate more to the people that go there than other universities. Of course, I think the people around you counts as well. People that probably know me are actually expecting me to go to better universities like University of San Carlos or University of San Jose - Recoletos (where my sister goes). But to be honest, I don't want to study in those universities, and I've made my final decision, so don't judge me. Thank you. :))

GAH!
All I wish to do right now is fall asleep. This is absolutely no fun, and it's no good for me since I'm going to take a freaking exam. Oh God, why does it have to be so hard to fall asleep? I hate these thoughts I have in my head, they won't shut up and I can't fall asleeeeeep! :(
