I had a Nightmare

And it's freaking me out.

I hate waking up in the middle of the night. Worse is that, when you have a bubu, you can't expect yourself to sleep again. I've been waking up these past few days from 3-5 am. Someone must have manipulated my time zone. :o Anyway, I have this thing for zombies. Human flesh-eating zombies. If there would be a perfect horror film for me, it would be a story of myself hiding and running away from zombies. If Apocalypse would come and hell would break loose, this is the type of scene I wouldn't want to happen to the world. In short, I love yet hate movies such as I am Legend, Resident Evil, Dawn of the Dead and the list goes on. I had a nightmare that pertains to the concept of I am Legend. Humans walk by day and these Devouring fleshees at night. Some survived in the city, through underground and well.. Just think of Will Smith's character in I am Legend. Zombies if I may use the term are also afraid of the light. (Oh please, I hope Science stops searching for the cure that will kill us all.)

My friend Monique and I were running towards the end door when one devour (I think that's a good name for our monsters) almost grabbed us. We were able to escape because one skilled survivor saved us. We waited til dawn until the sun rose at its highest. I even dreamt of my favorite prof who was with us but got bitten in the arm. I couldn't take it. Anyway, the survivor brought us to this hiding place where I saw my grandpa. I cried so much I didn't stop. Then a few days later, someone sent me a letter through snail mail. *dunno how that became possible* It was my mom. She claims that she wants to see us and can provide shelter and protection but only for a few days since the "shelter" could only provide three members per family. We went there and saw Kobe. When the time came that we had to go back, I got so scared because we might get chased by devours again. Then I was touched, because my grandpa came to fetch us. He travelled by day.. Oh I forgot to mention, these devours too only appear by night.. Only when you're being followed. So it is best to travel by day. Anyway, we offered him to stay first although we were already breaking rules. We stayed for a night until the morning and we bid goodbye because I can't be late for my next class. Weird cuz there's still school. Actually, the world is adjusting to the change. Advertising worked by word-of-mouth *during the day*, print media and that's it. No TV.

I don't know what happened next because I woke up hearing the clashing gates of my neighbor. I was so freaking out that I began imagining it as how devours would get you if they're able to trace you.

Wah, now i'm gonna stop. I'm gonna sleep again. I'd rather dream my test in ADPRAC rather than this. Goodnight.. err.. Goodmorning again.

Infatuation

Infatuation
Not seeing the rest of you is getting the best of me
It's such a shame that you shot me down
It would have been nice to be around
I'm touching your skin
If it's only a fancy, then why is it killing me?
I guess this must be infatuation (I want it..)

I can't sleep. Its 5am in the morning and I cant sleep. I tried to but i'm starting to see you in my subconscious too. I dont know where i'm getting this tingling feeling but I know for a fact that this must really stop. Whenever I see you I feel normal and when you've finally gone.... 

Crap.. bakit kasi ikaw pa.. of all people. :o

Unexpected

Boy this day really flipped me away. As you can see, the title says it all. I was surprised as these events happened in a fast pace. 

1st was after Photography. Because the room we were staying at was fucking cold, I had to go outside and stayed with Aina. We talked a lot about her stuff and my stuff until suddenly, I confessed a dormant secret. A secret in which only a few of my friends know. A secret that must not be told to anyone. Otherwise, i'm dead. 

2nd was the Psychology prelim exam. I studied yeah but I guess my weakness lies on my guessing skills. :( I'm never really good at multiple choices. But hence, I got 29 /50 which was lowered to 29/40. Therefore instead of getting 77%, I got 86%. Wuhoo!

3rd was Adprac. My prof called my classmate and asked how money is involved with Bread Pan snack. I accidentally blurbed because its Oishi then my prof overheard it. He called me again, so I shouted it *thinking at the back of my head the words.. BAHALA NA.* and Voila! 100! as if I've won the jackpot round. hehe 

I am currently listening to Maroon 5. I love them. AND I AM DESPERATE to watch their concert. But thanks to Adprac, guess I won't be able to hear the concert of my life. :p haha yeah, Maroon 5 songs from Songs About Jane album to It Won't Be Soon Before Long are like words and voices talking to me. As if telling me a bed time story. Their latest song that I listen to is *Infatuation*. I guess I am just infatuated.

It's torturing me.. I need to forget about you.

Killing me softly

I see you wherever I go, I remember the fragrance as if you were with me.
I hate this feeling because I know in the end, it is me who gets the axe.
I can't take this anymore.

I want to forget you or perhaps this tingling feeling. Can't we just be friends? That's what I keep on telling myself.

SO HAPPY.

WHOO I KNOW I'M A BIT EXCITED TO UPDATE YOU BLOGGIE BUT I AM SOOOO
FUCKING HAPPY TO GET A FLAT 1.0 FROM MY FAVORITE SUBJECT. :)

Minsan lang toh.. pagbigyan. :p

*Now, back to editing radio ads. :p*

It's 9am and its the start of Value Days.. :p

I feel bad for skipping the first 2 hours of class. What do you expect? When you work on a prelim project for the whole day.. Literally, you need sleep. Sleep is very essential. Because like what J.Lo said on her interview, her way of keeping the youth on her face is by sleeping. So like her, I get my beauty from sleep. haha

Anyway, I had fun doing our prelim project in our ADPROD subject (short for Advertising Production). We had to do four radio commercials. One is for LRT2 voiced by Ms. Yutuk, Howard's Housekeeping led by best actress Glaiza Penamante (Seriously you should hear her best famas claim to fame moment!) and misunderstood husband, Aina; Savemore Supermarket by the Chamster, Monique and yours truly, and the ever so last-minute Value Stores by us, three, again. We had a hard time coming up with the last ad because the guy who was supposed to do the voice in our previous concept backed out. But it's ok. Like I said, I really had fun. Puyat nga lang talaga. THANK YOU SO MUCH CHAM!!! *hands down* to the super good guy. :)

Later, i'll be meeting up with Monique to accompany her to the Bank so we'll be going to school by 2. Whoo sipag. hehe Anyway, I hope our PD prof won't mean what he said last friday.. That we'll start again doing our plates the manual way. NOOO.... I am hopeless when it comes to manual rendering.. No.. that's too negative. I'm more hopeful when it comes to digital nalang. :p

I'm out.. I haven't eaten breakfast yet.. My tummy's been growling since 2am. :p

Fun

I am so happy because I just got a new bag for McLovin (my ibook) with a bargain price. Of course it's not branded. Why would I spend thousands for the brand if you could get it at a cheap price. Quality perhaps? That is yet to be proven. I hope this bag lasts.. It's so comfy that not only McLovin's happy but also my back. So comfy because of the cushion. Anyway, that's not the real reason why i'm posting an entry.

My grandpa and I went to Greenhills this afternoon to watch National Treasure. Since I Am Legend starts late, we'll watch it on Sunday with our Sunday group. :) So what about National Treasure? It was long.. but fun. :)





I am guilty for loving History-based films and this one is no exception. Although I find the story of part 1 better, part 2 is like I said, fun, thanks to Jon Voight and Helen Mirren. I so love Helen Mirren. Seeing them both reminds me of my grandparents. Jon Voight's chubbiness and loud-toned voice really resembles Papa while Helen Mirren.. Oh my, Mama is that you? That vain, elegant with curly hair. Uhh men, now I missed her. Anyway, Diane Kruger.. hmm.. For a model she is good at acting. I loved the part where she had to distract the white house curator. I'm not telling you. :) Ed Harris was mean!! yeah.. hehe While Nicolas Cage and his sidekick really kicked the genius stuff off. The puzzles were fantastic. The movie was shot in different places. So if you're into treasure hunting, you'd better watch this. This is one hell of a movie best watched with your kids. :)

Dugyuting Bata.

The best way to start your day right is to bring a 15x20 canvas filled with wet dark blue paint. Ride a cab and spend a 110 peso fare to avoid jeepney mishaps. Hang your thick jacket into your shoulders near your painting to hide your patch-less uniform, wear a big shoulder bag and VOILA! Your uniform is now a canvas!

I am now an official candidate for ms. dugyutin 2008. :D

Sorry no pics to provide but all I can say is that.. I am never gonna bring a wet painting to school WITHOUT a cover again. Ever again. 

Btw, congrats to Ruben from PBB. The first male who won in ABS-CBN's reality shows. I remembered that I posted an entry which I said Riza was my bet. I was actually expecting Gaby to beat her in 2nd place. Oh well, whatever happens naman, they'll all be famous. 1st placer's reason why he/she always wins is because of Charity and how he/she played well in her game. But usually, it's the 2nd-4th placer who gets more famous. EXCEPT for PBBTE's Kim Chiu. Will is sponsoring JAG Black and im pretty sure Riza will endorse a shampoo/beauty product. :) Gaby? Lots of options in store for this beauty. Ruben..... If he stays consistent with his comedienne personality and down-to-earth attitude, he might get more famous than PBB 1's Franzen, who got axed from his projects and shows. 

Can't wait for Pinoy Dream Academy Season 2. But of course, American Idol Season 7 muna. :)

Blink

Funny how I can still remember the moment I took that little piece of cracker into my hand and greeted everyone a Happy New Year! Things happened so fast that I can hardly enumerate the different paces I encountered every day of the year. And now it’s the start again of a new year, what could possibly be happen to me?

I couldn’t help but reminisce when the time my grandma lost her fighting life. That was the start of my year in 2007. Months passed but the feud between her daughters remained. (Even until now) This year will also be the 1st year since we moved out of our own house and moved in with our grandpa and relatives. Summer was lively because the family Reveldez came and we, cousins, ruled the waters of Tagaytay and Calatagan. Although we also encountered our very first curfew. 2007 was also the year chosen by God to give us our bunso, Rayya. Twas also the start of my Junior year. I’m telling you, it gets harder everyday. Especially when my grandpa left for the states, boy, I sure was dependent on my own. Nevertheless, I still made it to the dean’s list. On the latter part of 2007, I was urged to hit the mills and lose some weight. For the first time, I’ve never felt so satisfied and happy when buying shirts I like. Thus, tis also where I discovered that I am truly NOT a morning person. thank you “I’m not a morning person” t-shirt. But then 2nd semester starts and made us felt that it’s time to get serious. Of course my mind was just half present because part of it was still clinging to the past and most of it were longing for the future.. vacation that is.

Today, as I type in my new old buddy, I still cling to the year that had just passed. If I were to picture it, I’d draw myself a string as if it’s a tug-o-war game between me and a very big grandmother clock. Obviously, I lose. Then I somehow imagine, what it would be like if I had inherited Hiro Nakamura’s (from Heroes) powers and turn back time to where I can reverse all my mistakes. Would I have achieved supreme satisfaction?

Right now I am happy because I sit in this comfy chair inside a cold hotel room in Discovery Suites with my Mom, her family and my siblings. But after this day, would I still encounter the same wheel I rode back in 2007? I pray for true happiness. It’s true they say it doesn’t come out from material objects. I just wish I knew exactly where.. and you bet I’ll keep my heart open to it. ☺

Happy New Year Rednocturnes.. oh! You’re turning 3! 3 lovely years. :D
