Insert appropriate title here

Res·ur·rec·tion
\ˌre-zə-ˈrek-shən\ noun

- the state of one risen from the dead

And just so you know, I was never dead. I guess I just never had the time to update my blog because *insert crappy reasons here*.

Short posts

Because I'm too lazy to make a blog post. Or something that actually makes sense.

Don't you just hate being broke?

I. AM. FRIGGIN. TURNING. NINETEEN. TOMORROW.

CAN MY TITLE GET ANY MORE PREDICTABLE?

Geeeeeez. And I don't even wanna think about it. IT'S JUST SO UNFAIR. WHY AM I STILL SO SHORT? </3

Long gone

I suck at running this thing. But nonetheless, I created this, so I might as well continue whatever I ought to do with this.

Long gone for about 3 months. I'm sorry cyber gods, I've been very very busy. (Or let's just keep it between the both of us that the real reason I've never updated this is because I don't have internet. Back to sucks-to-be-me) Anyway, I'm glad I've finally taken some realass rest from this month's stress. I'm telling you, August used to be my happy month, not just because it's the month before my birthmonth, but well yeah, maybe because it's the month before my birthmonth! =)) I am making no sense at all. Moving on.. First week we had midterms, then duty at the medical ward (which was shockingly fun thanks to Luigi and his magic "touch") then we had the oh-so memorable Nursing Fun Days.

Now, I'm here tryna convince myself whether or not I should finish this post. I guess I'll finish it once and for all. I'm just really relieved after having a very heavy workload week after week. Junior life is friggin stressful! And right now, I have no idea what to expect when we go back to school on Wednesday (or tomorrow, rather). You see, our clinical instructors have this amazing way of surprising us with make-up lectures or quizzes or whatever they think is tolerable within our limit. AND NOW THAT I MENTION IT, I AM CURRENTLY IN THE VERGE OF ANXIETY ATTACK BECAUSE I AM NERVOUS AS WELL WHETHER OR NOT I FLUNKED MY MIDTERMS. Exam gods, please be good to me. I know I did my best, though dot dot dot dot.

Things running on my mind at the moment:

• I'm the only one awake right now except for the noisy dogs of our neighbors
• I DON'T WANNA LEAVE MY HAPPY PLACE
• ROXAS CITY IS MY HAPPY PLACE
• THEREFORE, I DON'T WANNA LEAVE ROXAS
• I finally resurrected on Facebook but I'll be dead again after forty-eight to seventy-hours 
• I'm happy like shit with the results of our NFD besides all the drama and neverending Junior-Senior clash.
• I don't wanna call it clash, though. More like.. neveryoumind. =)))))
• I still fancy some of the Seniors even after all this clash or whatever you'd like to call it. :3
• Not gonna blabber much about NFD nao
• Sorta kinda excited for my birthday!
• Sorta kinda excited for my sissy's birthday
• Starting to get sleepy

This isn't much for a post, but to pay much attention to this site, I just had to finish this. And I did. Yay!

Need I say more?

EXCUSE ME WHILE I CRY 

I now officially declare this my favorite line from the movie! It just speaks so much of nothing but real truth. And let me just say I can relate to it so much. :3

My last summer getaway

I hate to say this but.. my summer is slowly coming to an end. And luckily, I had a chance to spend it with my family.

After attending mass, at around 4something, we fixed our stuff and headed to San Antonio Beach Resort. The kids (that includes my 17-year old sister and my cousins, Dorothy and Jude) went for a swim while I joined the table of the adults (Mama and Mahal). While I spent most of my time listening to music, drinking my frozen iced tea, tweeting (thank you, San Antonio wifi) and taking pictures (using Belinda Touch -- my sister's iPod because we had no camera with us thanks to its lost charger), the grown-ups were also busy having their usual convos and the kids, well, they were busy doing their own thing. Jude, most especially, since he was on his own because Mama wouldn't let him leave the kiddie area.

Anyway, here are few photos I have from a while ago (or more like yesterday because it's morning already)..

Dorothy, Jude, Megan and Mama when we arrived. Mahal was still parking somewhere. 

That's Dorothy and Megan, btw =))

Our little boy's having fun on his own

And while they're having their own kind of entertainment, I was happily pigging out

With Megan :3 Nvm the bottom part of the photo

Le 2 kids and one feeling kid..

More of us! :P

And then we ate a mouthful dinner! Friggin hungry that time and I don't even know why. Hahahaha. After eating, they want back to the pool and I was alone again. So... uh, I decided to make a world of my own. Ha, ha, ha and ha!

Pretend you didn't see this thing, okay? :3

Here's Jude after finally getting tired of swimming and copying every kid's back dive =))))

I couldn't remember what time it was already but I think it was late seven when Megan and Dorothy went out of the pool. After paying the pills (c/o Papa Ping hehehehe), we left the place.

And we couldn't just leave without some lil more vanity..

And maybe more. =)))) My face is a crap. Lol

Before heading home, we decided to take have a short visit at People's park because Jude has a thing for anything that's related to dancing lights, or anything colorful-ish and light-ish. If you know what I mean. We dropped off Mama and Megan to Bebing's to buy Lola's favorite catfish and then we went straight to the plaza and to Jude's disappointment, the dancing fountain was off. So we went back to fetch Mum and Meg only to find ourselves getting jealous of the ice cream they were enjoying. Mahal bought us too and so we were all happy already. We then went home right away and tadaaa, a little more of us. 

Say hello to Belinda Touch! xD

She's the craziest person ever but I love her still <3

And that's that. I went back to my Twitter-whole-day-whole-night routine right after I freshened up and changed to my PJ's.

I don't wanna sound mean

So, I'll just keep calm and breathe out hate.

BECAUSE I KNOW MY WORTH, I KNOW WHERE I STAND, AND I KNOW WHO I REALLY AM. Not gonna change my mind, I'll stand by what I said because I know what I want in my life.

I don't get why you keep stabbing me in the back with those mean words. You call me bitter? Funny how that very word best describes you. Well, whatever. This shit isn't worth my time anymore. AND WHAT'S FUNNY IS, AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOU STILL HOPE FOR SOMETHING.


I'm done with this! Hahahahaha. Gotta shake it off.

BIGGEST FRUSTRATION

Photography. :'<
Excuse me while I cry.

I've been in love with taking pictures ever since high school started and I don't knowww. I thought I was over this photography drama shizz but I'm not.

 Megan and Kayla. Unfair! When my message was being taken, I was alone. 

And then, we called it a day. It was a very tiring day for every one of us but even so, we all had fun. This was a moment to remember since it gave us, the Andrada Clan to have a sort of mini reunion. &&& one  reason why I was really happy this time also was because Nanang Iya let me take pictures using her DSLR the whole entire time. :3

You have to agree with me on this one though, Facebook Quality Photo sucks big time! :(
