Saiunkoku Monogatari
Sometime last week, our Internet connection was cut off, so I decided to spend the days without the Internet watching Saiunkoku Monogatari, a.k.a. Colorcloud Palace (the translation sounds a bit off, IMHO) on Animax. And believe it or not - in three days' time I was able to finish watching all thirty-nine episodes of the first season! I'm currently ( Read more... ) -
It's times like these...
...that make me think of how unfair and horrible the world is.
Read all about it:

3. First person account: ‘People thrown like dolls by blast’ (from GMA News)
4. Mall bomb blast kills 8, hurts more than 100 (Philippine Daily Inquirer ( Read more... ) -

Jhenel's eighteenth birthday
Jhenel, my blockmate and batchmate, invited me to her eighteenth birthday party, which was held last night at Le Souffle in Rockwell. My gosh! Le Souffle was beautiful. Before the party, I was watching a showbiz/gossip show, and I saw Le Souffle on television because some actress's fiance proposed to her there. I thought, "Wow. That's beautiful."

Back in the habit
Hey hey, everyone. After yet another hiatus, here I am, back again - hopefully for a long time. Expect a really long post, as I've been itching to write about nearly everything that's happened to me during the weeks that I've been away ( Read more... ) -
Mid-Autumn Gratia
On September 25, Chinese communities all over the world will be celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, or, in Mandarin, Zhong Qiu Jie. It falls on the fifteenth day of the eighth month in the Chinese lunar calendar. On that day, the moon is at its brightest, roundest and fullest - the perfect time to celebrate togetherness by eating mooncakes and ( Read more... ) -
Have a happy period - not!
I woke up this morning feeling horrible, cranky, irritable - in short, crappier than ever. No thanks to my period ( Read more... ) -
Seven Sins Meme
Note to self: Must update about what went on during that time I went on hiatus. But - must also try to at least begin one of the many projects/papers/whatever before they pile up (as if they haven't already).
But in the meantime, here's a meme related to the seven deadly sins. Got it from eaglesspirit.

Appy polly loggies
Before I begin, in case you're wondering about the strange subject heading, it's a reference to a novel that we recently discussed in Lit class - A Clockwork Orange, by Anthony Burgess, which I've now added to my roster of favorite novels. :D It's Nadsat (a fictional language used by the narrator) for "apologies ( Read more... ) -
Holding on
Sorry for not updating for days. I've been working on that awful, blasted Filipino project, which has been getting on my nerves. The project is really too much work, and if you think I'm the only one complaining, just ask my blockmates and I doubt anyone's going to tell you that he/she had an easy time doing the project. It's one big pointless ( Read more... )
