Life is so… whatever.

Translation: ASJDAKJKIAJDAOFNUOBNUEOA WALANG HIYANG INTERNET YAN MUNTIK NA KO ATAKIHIN SA PUSO!

So. Today was my “Learn to Program in C in Less than 24 Hours” day! So fun! NOT. Well the programming part was ok. It wasn’t easy-peasy, but I managed (with a ton of Anna’s help, LOL). Considering I did the whole thing in less than 10 hours (LOL, probably 7 or 8 at the most, with all the breaks I took haha), that was pretty fast.

The problem came when it was time to submit my source code.

So. My internet’s been acting up all day already, and it won’t work here on my laptop so I used the PC for researching and YM-ing purposes (YM-ing Anna for help, LOL), while I coded here on Berting. O diba cool, akala mo bigtime programmer talaga eh noh hahaha. Well when I finished my MP (to Cam’s joy I’m sure, because she’s been waiting for me to finish so we could go be crazy on Y!M as usual), I made a last desperate attempt to connect my laptop to the internet, but to no avail. So I returned the connection to the PC… BUT OMG WHAT THE HAIR IT WON’T WORK EITHER!

So an hour and a half of panicking and arguing (with my dad) commenced, completely with snarky comments and sarcasm. Um, I’m sorry, you do not want to cross me when I’m seriously panicking.

And then for some reason I made a last desperate attempt to connect Berting, and lo and behold, IT WORKED! OMG. I NEARLY CRIED WHEN THAT HAPPENED, I SWEAR.

Anyways, it’s over now, and I shall enjoy the last 30 minutes of my birthday doing stuff that don’t require knowledge of binary and hexadecimal, LOL.

So, I have a confession: I hardly remember half of what went on last night because I was too giddy to actually process what was happening. Thank goodness I have video documentation of the whole thing. But before I completely forget everything, I’ll jot down random stuff about the awesomest birthday dinner ever. I swear I’ll get around to doing that darn CS21 MP once I get this out of the way, LOL.

• First of all, syempre thanks everyone for coming. Last night was amazing. <3
• To those I should’ve invited but didn’t… Um. Sorry. My guest list was the shortest in the history of 18th birthday guest lists, so um, don’t feel too bad..? Haha. Joke lang. Kasi I didn’t want to not be able to talk to everybody naman which is what usually happens in larger parties. So, I kept to the absolute closest people. Kasi um if I invited the next closer people, ttriple yung number eh LOL. Um, anyways, this bullet probably didn’t make sense to most of you. This was brought about by a conversation with Nico, so this is purely to appease my guilt. :P
• On a related note, friends, I’m sorry I wasn’t able to talk to you as much as I would’ve liked to. I would’ve wanted to have been part of the dinner table conversation sa other table, because OMG I’ve so missed the awesome/random/insane kainan chitchat with you guys. Di tuloy ako maka-relate dyan sa mga chismis about Rob! Haha. Oh well. We’ll catch up some other time.
• So. The surprise 18 pens. That was AWESOME, YO. I now have enough pens to last me until the end of the school year, LOL.
  
  • This one pen deserves its own sub-bullet because I still cannot get over it. Haha. I don’t mean to put a spotlight on a single pen (I love all of them, I swear!), but DUDE. THIS PEN. IT’S EFFING HUGE.
    
  • Also, I have duplicate pens. LOL.
    
• The gifts too were awesome. <3 But let me point out a couple that brought some serious LOLZ, haha.
  • 
    HAHAHAHA OMG. The whole pair of jeans was awesome (OMG I HAVE A PAIR OF SHAYNE’S JEANS! Pag sikat na sya, pwede ko to ibenta for a ton of cash! :lol: ) as well as the rest of the gift package (haha talagang gift package sya, andaming laman eh), but this. HAHAHAHAHA. (Secretly though, HOW I WISH. :lol: )
  • 
    OMG. BEN. WHAT THE HAIR. :lol: (This was apparently Shayne’s idea too, so Shayne wins the title for most creative gift ideaSSS hahaha.) Buti na lang you included a book that I will actually read (A Child Called It) kundi lagot ka sakin, LOL.
• Hahaha I totally failed at tying that cherry stalk. Ok so I succeeded for a full second, and then in my excitement I untangled it again. Nasayang lang ang pag-interrupt ko sa speech ni Ben about me being the boss and stuff. :lol:
• Haha. Your memories. So funny. Haha. Pansin nyo bang tawa lang ako ng tawa the whole time I was on the hotseat? LOL.
• Hahahaha super thanks pala to Nico and Shayne and their awesome hosting skills. Ang bakla mo Shayne as usual, and Nico… HAHAHA that Lars moment was freaking hilarious. :)))))))))
• OMG MY BABY PICS! NAKAKAHIYA! :lol:
• Ay, haha. You Pisay friends are probably wondering about this, so to those who are curious, NO, Cam and Nico are not a thing. Or so they say. Whatever. Hahahaha.
• The strawberry miilkshake thinger was YUMMY. Haha. Nakakasawa lang pag matagal but OMG ANG SARAP!
• ETA: Um. So ngayon ko lang narealize na sana pala nagpicture ako with each of you. Huhu. Sayang.

Um, wala na kong maisip, will post more pag may naisip akong bagong pagtatawanan about last night LOL. Meanwhile, I shall go do my MP now. 26 hours before deadline, OMG!

YOU GUYS. THAT WAS FREAKING AWESOME. SO AWESOME I HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE IT RIGHT NOW. THANKS SOOOOO MUCH. <3333333

So, we all know I’m not the fangirlest of all fangirls when it comes to David Cook (all the ridiculous fangirling in me that Cam totally hates is reserved mostly for the other David, LOL), but OMG COOK’S FIRST POST-IDOL SHOW IS GOING TO BE HERE. IN THE PHILIPPINES. OMG. *dead*

(Now if only Archie comes here as well, then I can die happy na OMG.)

(Also, Cook talks about other stuff like his album too, but I didn’t even bother to listen to it really, my mind couldn’t get past the glorious announcement LOL.)

ETA: David Cook has now officially ruined my plans of splurging on a nano as a birthday gift to myself because OMG, I NEED TO BUY A BETTER CAMERA IN TIME FOR JANUARY 27! And the camera I want? Needs major saving, yo. ARGH. Damn you David Cook.

So, this post is kinda late, but OMG CAM AND I JUST WENT ON A DATE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN WEEKS! So yeah I’m going crazy on the caps lock because I’m THAT excited. I don’t even know when we last went on a date, that’s how long it’s been. Probably when we (or she anyway) deep-fried Cream-Os (super yummy OMG!), which was probably back before my job started. So this date? Long overdue, really.

Anyways.

(more…)

So I was just showing my sister a youtube video of Archie’s Stand By Me performance on the first of their two Utah concerts, because DUDE, THAT WAS SOME SERIOUSLY HYSTERICAL SCREAMING RIGHT THERE and I am secretly jealous of those who were able to witness that LOL. It just paused a split second as David started singing (a collective gasp at the awesomeness that is David Archuleta? LOL), and then never stopped again. I swear. The screaming would just mellow a tiny bit (but still remained at eardrum-breaking levels, I assure you) in parts, and then would quickly gain momentum again. And then suddenly, the BLUE SCREEN OF DOOM appeared right in the middle of the Beautiful Girls part and told me that Berting had just crashed. Poor thing couldn’t handle the mass fangirl hysteria, hahahaha.

As in ako yung naka-aksidente. How I managed to do that without even knowing how to drive (and without even being in the freaking driver’s seat in the first place!) still amazes me until now.

So it happened when my family and I got home from an afternoon of shopping yesterday. Since we have no maid as of the moment (because the last couple that were supposed to replace the last one we had changed their minds what the hair), I was instructed to get off the car and open the gate to the garage. My dad said something about opening the side nearer our drunk neighbors first to minimize my exposure to them LOL (because for some reason I have neighbors who have drinking parties at any and all points of the day) and I joked with my sister about how ridiculously funny that is (I even told her to time how long I’m exposed because we’re crazy like that) as, without looking, I pushed the car door open.

…AND PROMPTLY HIT THE PERSON WALKING PAST THE CAR AT THAT EXACT MOMENT. And said person doubled up in pain and started bawling right there in the middle of the road. I apologized profusely and we moved to the sidewalk where she sat and attempted to recover, but OMG there was major sobbing and I was starting to freak out because OMG did I just injure someone?!?!

My dad got out of the car to see what was happening and we went inside the house so we weren’t all exposed out on the road like that, and my ninang (who’s also our neighbor) who saw the whole thing came over and checked out how badly injured the girl was, and our other neighbor made the brilliant suggestion to bring the girl to the hospital WHAT THE HAIR. At this point I could not believe how quickly the situation had escalated, and surely there was no need for that? My ninang sure didn’t believe there was anything wrong to warrant that much sobbing, but hey, the girl (who works as a maid for the family of the other girl who was with her) could sue us or something even though their is no possibility that I did her any lasting damage so ok fine, my parents brought her to the hospital. Me? I was instructed to stay here at home where I promptly broke down and went into a panic attack. The many if-onlys and could’ves assailed my thoughts, because if only I wasn’t laughing with me sister, I would’ve seen the passing people and could’ve avoided the impromptu hospital visit. Actually at that point, I wasn’t worrying about the girl I hit as much as I was worrying about the massive scolding I was sure to get when my parents got home. I stopped caring about the stupid girl when my ninang assured me that there was nothing to worry about and we’re just doing standard procedure so that the girl doesn’t get a chance to mooch money off us on fake charges, BECAUSE SERIOUSLY, I HIT MY SISTER PLENTY OF TIMES WITH VARIOUS DOORS AND I HAVE NEVER EVEN ONCE MADE HER CRY OK.

And then when they get to the hospital my dad texts me saying the girl is still in some pain but was already laughing and relating her life story. WHAT. THE. HAIR. I refused to reply to that. After nearly giving me a heart attack, suddenly she’s all buddy-buddy with my parents??? Harrumph. I SHOULD SUE HER FOR EMOTIONAL DAMAGES OR SOMETHING.

So anyways. Thank God the sermon lasted about 1% as long as I actually expected (was expecting an all-nighter, but I hadn’t even started on dinner by the time the discussion was over!), and so far nobody’s been suing us yet, so I shall now forget this incident ever happened and just be careful next time I open my car door.

YAY FINALLY SOMEBODY UPLOADED ANGELS! And while Stand By Me (the Glendale version, because the dance part was better than when Archie did it in San Diego) will forever be the performance that makes me flail and gives me a heart attack, Angels is the one that makes me weep because Archie+piano is just AMAZING. <333

…when I watched Archie singing the WHOLE chorus of Beautiful Girls during the AI concert. AND DANCING TOO OMG. And where the hell did he get all that onstage confidence anyway??? And damn his Stand by Me just keeps getting better and better every time!

THIS IS OFFICIALLY THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE.

EDIT: OMG HE SANG APOLOGIZE TOO YAY! Without Ryan Tedder constantly trying to take the song away from him! (Seriously, I love OneRepublic and all, but Archie trumps practically everyone so during the finale I was torn between “YAY ARCHIE+APOLOGIZE=<3333!” and “SHUT UP, RYAN!” haha.)

And his sparkly jacket? MAJOR LULZ YO.

EDIT2: WTH SOMEBODY UPLOAD ANGELS AND WHEN YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME ALREADY DEMMET! Angels makes me want to weep every time I hear it (whichever version of his–studio, live, or pre-idol), and I heard this one was amazing. And Archie sings Josh Groban! Why is this not all over the internet yet???

(Um, yeah. So this is pretty much how I’m going to be while the Idols tour is ongoing. As if I’m even there no, but whatever. Please bear with me, LOL.)

ok joke lang ang totoo i was just avoiding thinking about this thing that disturbed/hurt me today, but i am thinking now and damn does it hurt. :(
