MOVED!

K-POP LOVEE ♥

2009-09-05T19:16:00.000-07:00

Lately, I've been totally diggin' K-pop song. I dunno why, maybe because it's in my blood LOL :))
There are two K-pop groups that I totally dig.

They are 2NE1

The songs of 2NE1 is my background music, DUH! I obviously love them. They are not just good in singing and dancing but they are also educated people. This group consist of four members and they are CL the group leader/rapper, Dara the one with the sweetest voice in the group, Bom the lead vocalist, and Minzy the awesome dancer and the youngest I really want their album for my birthday. I tried e-bay but it's expensive there, so I'll just ask my mom to bug my uncle to buy me their album :))

&& also SHINee

My sister loooves them, and she keeps on ranting and ranting about this group, then also I begun to start liking them :)) This group naman consist of five members and they are Onew the group leader, JongHyun the lead vocalist, Minho also a vocalist/rapper, Taemin the dancer and the youngest in the group, Key the vocalist also (I think o___o). I must say that TAE MIN AND MIN HO ARE HOOOT :-X

Cards Out!

2009-08-28T02:12:00.001-07:00

OKHAAY, today was the PTC and the school cards were given to the parents. My mom was really disappointed with my grades (as always). It's really hard when your sisters were blessed with more brains, than you are. People always compare me with them, they're being so insensitive about how I feel towards that matter. Do they think I'm happy that they're smarter than I am?? For Pete's sake! have hearts people! :))

Back to my grades..
They're not that bad. I don't have any failing marks, but I gotta admit they're not high. Most are on the line of 8's. I promised my mom that I will do my best this grading, which totally will! 'cause I'm sick and tired of other people who compare me with my sisters. so, let's just see! :))

HELL WEEK

2009-08-13T01:20:00.000-07:00

I still have one last exam tomorrow, and it's my favorite subject of all the subjects on earth! ::(

CHINESE! :(
oh joy! o_o

Our test will start at 1:30pm so I'll just study tomorrow morning. :D
I'm too lazy to start studying today. So far, my long tests in Chinese are all in the line of 9's. no kidding, last year I almost had a red mark on my card cause I failed on some of my long tests, but this year I decided to change my studying habits so, now I'm excelling in Chinese but I'm sure that my deportment is low because I'm very talkative in class. My teacher told me that I'm the most talkative in our class. (EMBARRASSING! gah T_T)

I think, no I'M POSITIVE that I failed on our test today which is Chinese (Math). I didn't study seriously, I just stared at my notebook and daydreamed. LOL :)) Our teacher in Math is pretty boring so I also daydream in class :))

I gotta stop blogging now..
BYERS :)

2009-07-18T01:03:00.000-07:00

I've been very busy lately.. There are lots of assignments in school especially on our English subject, everyday our English teacher gives us lots of home works and I honestly HATE that teacher (I will not mention her name but it's kinda obvious if your a hope student) not only does she tortures us, may favoritism pa siya. PSH, no I'm not mad at the student she's favoring nor am I envious of her. Who likes to be favored by that teacher anyways? Honestly, her grammar is worst than mine, and she can't even pronounce "bongo" (bongo drums. [bong-go]) for crying out loud! She pronounces bongo as bong-ngo. LOOOOOL stupeeeed! All of my batch mates and classmates hates her! I just wish that she'll be fired ASAP!

Another reason my I've been very busy and haven't blogged for a while is because the poomsae competion will be held next week already and I'm friggin' excited but I'm also a bit scared. Excited because it's my first time to join a national competition on any event, scared because well.. DUH! everyone gets scared naman during competitions eh. It's normal naman daw sabi ng coaches namin well.. except if your over confident or something plus, I'm not that prepared that's why I'm scared. I dunno if my skills are enough to attain the gold medal but, I know that God will help me do my best.

SHOUT OUT!!:

Good luck to all my fellow jins/teammates. Let's all do our best! MTM Aja! Fighting! :) <33 class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">th birthday Ethaaan :)

2009-07-02T05:09:00.000-07:00

Today was CUHRAYZEH!!
Andamin nakakalokang nangyari!!
as in it was a day full of laughs =)))))))))))))))

The day was boring at first but then....

First Scene:
It all started after lunch, our teacher has not yet arrived, so we started fooling around:

Me: "Judy ann, (my weird classmate) si Anthon (my guy classmate) oh, Gusto daw mangligaw"
Judy Ann: "AYAW!"

*And we were like laughing hard!! She fell for it! as in! feel na feel pa niya akala niya it true :))* (Gawd I'm so evil >:D)
continuation...

Me: "Ruth, (my other weird classmate) pwede ba daw bang maging boyfriend material si Anthon?"
Ruth: "ewan"

*We were thinking "oh so may possibility" And Anthon was so shocked =)))))*

Me: "Judy Ann, eh si Stephen (my other classmate) pwede daw bang manligaw?"
Juday: "AYAW NGA EH!!"
Me: "Eh bakit naman ayaw mo kay Penpen? gwapo naman!"
Juday: "EH KASI MAS GUSTO KO ANG ASO KO KAYSA SA TAO"

*LMAO =)))))) We were thinking if she's on drugs or something :o *

Me: "Si Janrey (my another classmate) oh, mukhang aso!!"
Juday: "AYAW NGA EH!!!!!!!"

*The teacher arrived then umalis ulit siya.*

Me: "Judy Ann, so in the future magpapakasal ka sa aso mo?"
Juday: "Babae aso ko eh"

*LMAOOO =)) Me and Dave thought that she's a lesbo or something*

tapos may humirit

Someone: "Aso ko tomboy eh =)))))"

~The the teacher came back na. THE END :) ~

Second Scene:
Chinese class was not that bad today. We just copied notes, teased our teacher, made props for the ting li presentation.

We only got 85 on that presentation (even if our leader was absent). We were 2nd to the hightest, beleive it or not! the highest score was 89.
The presentations were uhhh... not bad, we all were not prepared for sure! It was also funny I can't describe it by words cause it's unexplanable. DUH

Third Scene:
After class we had our Handmime Club orientation. It was fun beacuse Achi Eliza kept on fooling around. etc

Fourth Scene:
Mayrnel and Achi Jessa walked with me and my shobe going home awhile ago. Achi Jessa was like telling stries about Achi Ruby's birthday and how she learned how Mayrnel did the "bird" thingy before on handmime. Parang kaming mga baliw na nagtatawana sa daan. :)) kaya yun my shobe felt OP so nauna na siya :)))))

The first was the funniest yung iba extra lang, pampahaba lang ng blog :D

OH SCHOOL OF HIGH LEARNING :)) HCHS <3

2009-06-27T02:28:00.000-07:00

With God's mercy I survived the second week of classes. Woot! :))
It's just the second week but I'm already sick and tired of it!
School is boring T_T, It's because of my boring section, most of the people in my section are shy, quiet and NO FUN! (those are my girl classmates, the boys, psh IDC >:P) And I'm the TOTAL opposite of them!
Marichelle and Tezza are far away from my seat so BOO! But good thing Dave is there (he's my seatmate), at least I still have a friend to talk to, then just my luck, last friday he's been very very weird. He's not the Dave that's jolly and talktive, he's been "Emo-ish" and I tried very hard to let him tell me what's wrong but he still wont speak up! I hope next week he'll be in his normal self again or else I'll be boring like my fellow classmates.
