I'm practicing my photoshopping abilities so my pictures will look awesome. Hopefully i can post some high resolution pictures later, once i figure out how to do that on my camera, or if i get one of those super-mega-ultra super-tourist cameras with the giant lense and need a 10 wheeler to drag around. haha!
So anyway, i've been having classes and its been great. Rj and me have all the same classes, so its pretty fun having him around when weird stuff happens. For example, when this girl (not marielle, this one is BRAND SPANKING NEW or "fresh off de boat") liked RJ, it was hilarious. Actually, she was obsessing over him and it even got to the point where the girl got jealous. She began asking Nicky questions like "are you RJ's girlfriend?" and stuff like that. It was quite entertaining to hear and see. The girl would stare at RJ, even when he wasnt looking. I sorta saw because when people stare, i stare right back, plus it looked like she was staring at me so it was really confusing...
RJ broke her heart in the end, but its okay, RJ still gets that death stare from her...
Moving along...
Again with the death stares. Okay so being a person who is fluent in english, living in MVC (or near) can be a hassle. Everytime you speak, people stare! Its so awkward, like then when you walk away, they still have their eyes glued to you. Take mom's advice and smile, or take auntie's advice and stare back, you choose. Even when we aren't speaking english, the stares continue.
We were walking around in front of Gaisano (its sorta like a grocery store), and we passed a bunch of people. AS we walked by, not saying a word, we felt their eyes staring at us. I bet if we turned around we'd catch them, but we didnt....
From my experience, this is how a hello goes:
Nick: Hello!
Random Person: Hi!
Now around these parts:
Nick: Hello!
Random Person2: Yes...
And in MVC:
Nick: Hello!
Random Person3: *weird expression on face as if constipated*
And when people are sitting down:
Nick: HELLO!
Random person4: *death stare*
Pretty scary if you ask me.. :D
So moving along... i have to think of a new post later... I'll write later..
FIRST BLOG POST!!!!
First off, fresh off de boat, theres the topic of RJ's former girlfriend... Shes been haveing on and off crushes throughout the ongoing semester and it kills me how Rj isnt responding to her. Hahaha! You guessed it, Marielle is back... Well she listed her crushes on her blog... Rj happens to be Number 13 on the list, and climbing. Haha
Moving on. So just last night, there was a scare about the NPA or the New Peoples Army, and the dormitorians were confined to their rooms. Lolo thinks its just a joke that the guards are playing to keep people from roaming around at night, otherwise the siren would have sounded alerting everybody. Haha.
Anyway, we've been having classes and whatnot. Its been great, except that passing is gonna be a challenge. Tonight i'm gonna practice my chemistry homework because its running me over.. And i still have to do my report for Theoretical Foundations of Nursing. Its pretty hard too. Balancing my schedule can be rough, but i hope i can make it. And math with sir is sooooo hard. Sir Ferrer, the teacher that taught my mom, is teaching me. And the way he teaches is so, weird. I cant understand. He expects us to be in his head, and then wants us to learn. To me its like running into the wall over and over again. Sigh... And the book is no good because its written by him.
And now, for the moment you have been waiting for... My complaining.
So this school year has gotten to a rough start, and im so pissed. I dont care if they fricken read this, i dont care if it makes them angry or laugh, i dont give a damn....
SO there are these guys, and they act like they are on top of the world. When actually, they are gonna be at the bottom of it. Just watch. So me and RJ, we've been buddies since last year, and we are like close buddies and we have weird advendtures along with our trusty sidekick Nicky. Like the love stories with Rj and his awkward admirers, nicole and her information and gossip, and me and my weird self, yeah i guess you could say we were barkada. Haha.
But lately these guys have been picking on us, and its been annoying. I've been trying to ignore them. They call us names, tell stories about us to other people, and make us seem like we're bad people. For instance, they call me and RJ FAGS to get us off the hook. And they tell everybody that we are fags and how we blah blah blah. Well, i didnt want to get involved so we tried ignoring them thinking that they'd leave us alone. But its been going on and on and on and on, and its pissing me off. Sometimes i feel like getting a knife and just stabbing my pillow (just to vent out my anger). I just wanna hurt them real bad. I mean, seriously, i;ve been trying to remediate myself by not cursing or yelling at people when i get angry. I'm just trying to keep it in, and im not sure how RJ handles it but he's okay, or so it seems.. :D
Kane and Dan are their names. They go by the name Kane Simoso (or however you spell it) and Dan de Guzman. They think they are so cool, but they act like complete assholes. Im so mad....
They make fun of everything that i own (i dont know about rj, but maybe they do). Like for instance, the Dell laptop, that was really expensive and has awesome hardware, is just a piece of junk that they think they can just make fun of. I know it may seem childish, but i like my computer, and they dont know what people went through just to buy me this computer. And i bet their computer is a piece of junk too.
Then goes the RJ part. Recently i found out that they call me a fag because im RJ's buddy. And seriously? I guess they dont see the light.
I see them, they drink and smoke.
Rj is my buddy, and they seriously dont have the right to label somebody. IF i had the right to name them, heres how it would go:
Kane Simoso: Guy who cant get a girl because everyone that he meets, she dumps (Dolly Belican for one). And the guy who has no sensitivity to girls. I bet even the gay people wont like him.
Dan de Guzman: One who cannot even pass his senior year in MVCA when countless mentally retarded people have. Its hilarious. And plus, he's either gonna die of Lung cancer or alchohol poisoning or kidney failure from all the drugs and drinks he takes.
Lets see how this all turns over. Im gonna play the huggest prank on them, and lets see how it turns over. I learned how to do Chinese Water Torture... Its great when u want somebody to go crazy!

25 Things About Me
Well I was back reading some of Rj's old posts, and I read this post where he defined himself in 25 little statements. Okay!

6. I like when people tell you straight forward, not gossip behind your back.
7. I like all music, being open minded with all.

23. I like to wear shorts than pants.
24. I wear shorts under my pants.

So yeah, about the parakeet... We stuck stuff in it's food and spiked the water, just to see what would happen. But unfortunately we saw too much... :(
I'm in class now, I failed the test... Sigh... Ö psychology is making me crazy. I guess I need to get my studying up to date, I hate standards. So yeah..

Shhh Im Not Here
Lol so today we are having classes. The week is almost over so I got to know most of my teachers. Since we call our teachers by their last names, I should mention their names using, of course, their last name.
Claveria
Agustin
Ortega
Ferret
Espero
Pomoy
Saladaga
Solid
Cuares
Bretaña
I guess that's it, if my class schedule serves me right. Well, me and RJ have the exact same classes, so I have a buddy. But there are so many people in each class, it feels like public school again, except most of the are Filipino and sometimes don't even want to talk to you because you're an English speaking person. Although I tell them I can understand a simple conversation, they refuse to talk so I just say hi once in a while. And now that there are more people around, people start to stare more (because around here, they practically glue their eyes to you) and turn heads more. So, take moms advice and frown at them. Haha! Give them some worthwhile entertainment.
Haha, so anyway...
Recently I hve had nobody to talk to because not much people like to talk about war and blowing up stuff, well, maybe just around here they don't. So try talking skateboards and bikes, I did, and it didn't work. Try talking pranks and weird jokes, but they don't understand. Here's a good one, you talk about music, like artists and their songs, but they have no clue what you're talking about!! Agh! What to do what to do...
So yeah I've been in my little bubble that only a few know about... Lately I've been wanting to play a prank on people..

Too Lazy To Hunt Down For Internet
Well, I thought that I could hack all the wifispots around here in mvc, but some dummy deleted it off my USB and computer. Sigh... I think it was the anti-virus. Now I have to use the crappy version to hack. Well lately the school has gotten a lot of wifi spots, especially in emerald hall.
Speaking of emerald hall, Dr. Dial announced that there are a few rooms left. Possibly because the supposed "international dorm", is chock full of Philippine citizens! Wow, and they say you can't call the kettle black (I seriously have no clue what that means). Even some of the english speaking people that are from the states, are born in the Philippines! Isn't it amazing?! Well, it sometimes makes me wonder why they built an international dorm.. Awkward..
Back to the topic, there's a whole bunch places with open wifi, if you don't include Nicky's house as an open internet place. Lol, take note RJ, do not abuse the INTERNET POWER OF NICKY. She needs it more than we do. :)
Sigh... I hope they get wifi in RJ's room. I know that his roomate needs internet. *wink wink

White Guy Stalker...
Remember that half white guy that I saw at LAX airport? Yeah, I saw him in chow king Valencia... Freaky, he wouldn't stop staring.
So I've been up to a lot of things this week. During enrollment, uncle "borrowed" the class numbers. So we finished ebrolling quickly. But before that, me and RJ decided to visit the highschool's first day of school, which was in the auditorium as their first chapel service. I said hi to a lot of people, and it was okay. I started to redread the typical American to Filipino conversation where they don't know what they you are talking about and end the conversation with "okay". Then you have to start a new topic because that one went so well. Then they okay everything and it gets real awkward.. So I was happy when RJ introduced me to a new American girl (pure Filipino though). So we met, her name is Amy Adlaon, so mom or auntie, find out if we are related. It'd be awesome. I think her dads name is Wellie? I dunno. But it was so relieving to have a conversation that actually continued even if the topic was stupid, and didn't end in one word...
Back to the subject, they started singing and Ma'am Canarecio was the chorister, and she sang this song that had whistling and stuff. But it was hilarious!! She was singing falsetto because the pitch was too high! So she told the pianist to "lower the bitch". We started laughing!!! And when I mean we, it was just the international students. And then she mumbled it again and it was even more hilarious! Nobody cept the international students laughed. So we finished enrolling, and we set out for whatever there was left to do.
Then school for the college was cancelled because of a swineflu scare. Why they call it h1n1 virus I have no clue... I visited mvc a lot to hang with people, and we had fun I guess. I met a whole bunch of people this year. Lol. Fun fun. Will update when I'm not too lazy to... Time goes by sooo slowly over here...

California LAX
So we got to california, and dad wanted to check for his flight. We walked out it was FREEZING! LOL I hate California weather. So he checked in and dad brought us to the check in place for Philippine airlines. We ate a McDonalds, well we just ate fries let's leave it at that. Haha! Fun fun.. We checked in finally and they said some stuff about my student something or another blah blah. It was hilarious when the supervisor came to help us. She spoke perfect tagalog, and she was lighting fast at speaking too! I don't think anybody couldve understood, cept dad I guess. Anyway she was talking really good Tagalog and really fast, and when she said "student permit" it was really slow and well said. Lmao. I was trying to keep my laugh in. Haha!
Anyway so we said goodbye to dad and we left to get checked for any bad stuff (possibly stuff like bad magazines or cigars I don't know), and it was such hassle! Gah!! So if u didn't know, I was dragging two laptops through the airports. And we had to take em out of my carry-on luggage, and I swear, I was like the blood clot LAX. I probably caused the airport a few blackouts and heart attacks. Finally we were done.
We got to our gate, and I wanted some sour candy, so I went to buy some, I picked the biggest bag ($1.50, not bad for a bag of that size), and when cashier scanned it and added the tax, it was like $3.00! I was like "No!! my 150 pesos!!" I was angry... We waited at the gate and a whole flood of Filipinos came in, cept this one guy who was half white, and he was with his parents.
We boarded and it was still friggen cold. During the flight I wore my sweater, and put the blanket on my face and body. And I was still cold! My face was freezing! I could have had hypothermia and they wouldn't care. We landed after 13 hours of the airliner trying to preserve their passengers, you know, keep em fresh? Just individually wrap us if you want to keep our flavor tasting good!
That was it...
