Sembreak!

Hello, everyone! It's been a very long time since I last posted something here, right? I've been so busy at school that I haven't been updated to my own fandom. That's how hard college life is. I am serious about this, guys. So, the only hope for a college student like me are breaks! Semestral break is a very important and helpful thing for me. Why? I can rest from school works for at least 3 weeks. A really big help!

Me and Bebi Samiee :)

Zark's babyyyyy <3

So, I achieved many things last sembreak. Aside from staying up and waking up late, eating alot, and being so lazy, I had a lot of time catching up with my friends (Peders) and also my family. Me and my friends went out  for some trips and strolled to many places. Sam stayed at our house for an overnight. We did a lot of things like eating out (or shall we say pigging out) at Zark's. We were craving so much for it so, yeah.

Samiee and Marj @ MAPUA

Visited our Ate Yanna ^^

We also fetched Marj in her school at MAPUA. After that, Marj already went home and the two of us visited our "Ate" Yanna in her house, but we didn't stay for long. We went to the mall to buy Tahlia a stuffed toy. It's reall white and cute! I want one also! LOL. After all of those activities, we went home and stayed all night talking about our personal lives.Actually we didn't stayed all night. We were up until morning. In short, we haven't got any sleep!! At 3 am, we went out for jogging. Yup, 3 in the morning. Haha!  It was really fun, but it didn't last for long. Tahlia already left for Canada the next day. We went to the airport to see her for the last time and we cried a lot. We gave her our presents for her to bring to Canada including  the stuffed toy that we bought. It was so embarrassing seeing us cry like babies! We didn't care that much, though.

@ NAIA. Sorry if it's not rotated. LOL

The rest of my break was spent on the province, Cavite. We have a house there so I stayed there for the rest of the break. I did nothing there but to wake up, do some sweeping, clean the dishes, learn some basic cooking, eat, take a bath, and spending the rest of the day watching movies, fangirling and staying up late. Somehow, I had fun with it. I learned a lot of household chores! I'm proud of myself. Hahaha! And the movie marathon and fangirling part that I had been doing during sembreak was pretty fun though I watched movies alone. I have food alongside with me so it wasn't that lonely.

Our ice cream! :)

Last November 1, we went to the cemetery to visit our loved ones who passed away. We stayed there for the whole day. My cousin and I got so bored so we bought 800ml of Overload Cookies & Cream ice cream just for the two of us. We were not contented with ice cream alone so we bought marshmallows alongside. It  is me and my cousins bonding activity everytime the two of us hang out- Pigging out.

New hair color!

Before the sembreak ends, I dyed my hair for the first time in my life. The color is Copper something. I forgot. LOL. It turns out that it looks like reddish-brown and looks Orange under the sun. I guess I'll get used to it someday.

Our sembreak was already over. Our classes resumed last Monday. It only means two things: I can't let myself relax anymore and I can't have some quality time fangirling and updating my blog! The subjects that I will be taking our harder that what I took last semester... I guess. I hope everything will go well. Goodluck to me and my grades!! -_-

Our gift for Lia :)

I may not be able to update my blog for a long time again because 2nd semester has already started. Til next time!! :)

PS: Tahlia Joven Go Teus, what have you named the bear? Take a good care of this cutie pie and don't let it get dirty!! <3

#PrayForThePhilippines

Today,  August 7,2012, my beloved country, Philippines, is in deep state of crisis. Awhile ago when we woke  up, I got the news that our classes are suspended. I got back to sleep thinking that everything will be alright. After a few hours of nonstop raining, I never thought this would be the outcome. Deep floods all over the country are being reported on the news. Some floods are on knee level, some are waist level. Other areas are experiencing neck-level floods and worst, floods in other areas are higher than a real human. Taking into account that it is only a rain. Yes, a rain.  Not a typhoon, but a normal rain.

Come to think of  it, it's our  midterm week and this what happened. It ruined the whole week's schedule, but that's not what this is  all about. It's all about the rain, the flood, the whole country, and the citizens that are certainly affected! While studying,  I  can't  help  myself but to check on the news about the latest updates. Everytime I watch, things are just getting worse  rather than getting  better.  It loses my  concentration from  studying  seeing and knowing  that others are not  safe and struggling to save their things and their lives. I stopped from  studying and offered a  little of my  time  to talk  to the Almighty creator. I know that prayer is very powerful and  I believe that once  in a while, everything  will be over.

The state our country  is experiencing right now is almost like what happened in the past few years with the Typhoon Ondoy. The only  difference is that Ondoy is a typhoon and this rain is just a NORMAL RAIN. Unbelievable, it is.

So, here I an, sitting  in  front  of  my laptop, telling  a story about what happened  for  the whole day here in our country.  Obviously,  I am not  helping. I feel sorry for  myself. Even though I  really wanted to get up  and start lending both of  my  hands to help my  fellow countrymen, I  am doing nothing. I feel so sad and terrible about  myself. Poor me. Good thing there is my school.  They are having a program wherein they will collect donations from  the students to be given to the victims. I will gladly volunteer if time will allow me. If not, then I will donate some things for the victims.

So, yea.  Please!! Just please!! Help Philippines! A little prayer from all of  you would really be a big help.

It's Monday, Monday! So depressing Monday!

So, it's Monday again. As usual, I became so haggard, stressed, tired and depressed. Why does Monday always have to be this hard? I am so haggard because of our Physical Education subject. It lasted for 2 hours straight and what we did for the whole period was to practice our routine for the midterms. It was fun practicing the routine with my classmates, though. Now, I am was so stressed because of the never-ending school works. C'mmon guys, give me a break! Tired because of the very long day at school. Last but not the least, depressed. Depressed because of Algebra! Nothing has changed. It was always that subject which makes me so sad. I don't know, but I always give my best for Algebra. I study at our house whenever I have time, I do all my homeworks and practice each lessons, I listen to our professor all the time, and I concentrate every Algebra class. But why is it that I still get so many disappointing results? It really confuses me which leads me to depression. My classmates' quiz and homework scores are all high and my scores are just there like, "Oh hello, I AM A VERY LOW SCORE. My owner wants to disown me because she is so embarrassed having me." Like that, seriously. I really cried awhile ago, because I can't take it anymore. I just want to burst out my feelings and forget about the rest. As much as I wanted to talk to my mother on the phone, I can't. I have no load and neither she is. Luckily, she got the chance to call me awhile ago around 4 pm while I was walking my way out of the school. I got to talk to her about my Algebra issues and she comforted me a bit. I was relieved for a little because I had the chance to open up my feelings to my mother.  :)


Random happenings for today? I already got my uniform! After 1 month and 2 weeks, I finally got it. Thank God! Somehow, there is still a good thing that happened to me today. Additional! The most random happening in this post; I got the chance to go home in Cavite! I missed my stuff toys so much and my father and brother, and I guess everything that Cavite has! I never thought that I would miss it so much. <3

Assumption uniform! <3

Me with some of my toys at Cavite

Well, I think all I need to do is to pray, smile and strive more for good grades. Nothing will happen if I give up easily. I have to do my best! That's all for now! ;)



Dear Algebra,


I won't give up on us even if the skies get rough/ I'm giving you all my love. I'm still looking up...


Love,
Yanna 

AC Neon Invasion: We don't just FLY, we SOAR!

Despite of all the haggardness, stress and depressions that I am experiencing right now as a freshman student, there are still things that I can call good in my life. There are events at our school that, for me, helps me relax a little bit and enjoy school life.

July 16, 2012- The Assumption College, San Lorenzo had the Neon Invasion. It's all about the organizations in AC where the students will choose and register to their desired organizations. As an International Business student, we are required to register at the International Business Student's Association (IBSA) 250 pesos for new members and 200 pesos for old members. I also joined the UPBEAT. It's an organization wherein you can do workshops and enhance your dancing skills. I really am into dancing that's why I didn't took much time to think and simply registered. 

UPBEAT

Each organizations and associations also have their giveaways and freebies to their new members. I received a lanyard, glow stick, candies, bags and other simple stuffs. That was really awesome! :) There are also stands and orgs that sells good food such as Red & Blue Velvet Cake Pops, Sushi and many more. I really like these kind of things at Assumption. I can socialize and interact more with other people and have more friends. I can freely choose what organizations I like whether I register to one or all of them! Haha! I hope for more upcoming events in the future!

IBSA

The Neon Invasion will be on-going for the whole week and the closing ceremony will be held on Friday, July 20, 2012. 

"No friendship is an accident."- O. Henry

We love eating and passing time at McDo.

Since I am new in this blog. I'd like to share few of the treasures that I have- my friends. I believe that "No friendship is an accident" for everyone comes with purpose, like my friends. My friends are Ariana, Marj, Sam, Regine, Tahlia, and Shaira. We call our group "Feathers" because of a very long story. "Nakama", which means friends in Nihonggo. Well, I have a lot of people around me that I can call my "friends", but these girls are far different from them. Why? Simply because they are the craziest! Nowadays, it's really hard to find people whom you can trust. My friends are really hard to find. Let me describe them for you guys. 

They are crazy! We laugh at the simplest things there is in this world, we eat each other's lunch and snacks, we love hanging out and watching movies, we like to put pranks on each other, we hit each other hard just for pure entertainment and still not calling it "violence", we do hardcore trippings in public places without being embarrassed, we hangout at each others houses and sometimes sleepover when we don't feel like going home, we are the ultimate karaoke singers, we tease each other, and I believe there is more that I haven't said about my sisters. Those are some of the things we do very often. These girls might be crazy, loud, and annoying sometimes, but I tell you this; they may not be the perfect best friends, but they can surely be there whenever you need them. When the whole world doesn't believe you, they will. When you feel like you are alone, they will make you feel that you aren't. When you're sick, they'll come and crash into your house just to see you. When something happens to you, good or bad, they will be there like your mother. When you succeeded in something, they will celebrate with you. When you lost at something, they will sympathize with you. When you feel like crying, they'll offer their handkerchief for you. Not only handkerchief, but sometimes their shirts. When someone hurts you, they'll beat them up for you! (My sisters are tough. They can be girls and sometimes they can be guys, you know.) They are never embarrassed to shout for your name, run into you, and hug you in public. Last but not the least, they are proud and thankful to call you their best friend.  

My 16th Birthday

Well, I am very proud and thankful for these girls. I thank God for giving them to me. What if, I don't have them as my friends? That sucks. I can never imagine life without them. I love them so much! Thank you for being born, guys! 

Newbie!

Today, I made this blog as a stress reliever. These past few days, I've been exposed to school works and it made me so stressed. Algebra made me so depressed and made me feel so dumb. Before the school year starts, I promised myself that I will be a dean's lister, but it seems to be impossible with my performace in Algebra. Like, ugh. Yet, there are more upcoming school works and I'm afraid I will start to cram like before. I fear cramming now as a college student!! My only inspiration is the title "Dean's Lister", my family, friends, and of course, my favorite band. :"> Oh well. Welcome to me!
