Don't know any life but the city life, the glitz, the action, the frenzy.
Dreams of a quiet life but longs for more action.
Never contented with being in one place, always looking for something bigger and better.
That's me. The city girl.

 

Fabulous People!

    Yep, the country girl sweetheart won. I would've wanted Bo Bice to win but I guess Carrie did her thing and America liked it. Oh well, congratulations to the Carrie fans. I'm sure a classmate of mine is soooooooo happy. :)

    And now the end is near...
    |

    Tomorrow, the 4th season of American Idol is drawing to a close. Will it be Bo Bice or Carrie Underwood? Hmmm... I will admit my bias when I say that Bo deserves to be the idol. But then again, i don't know whats gonna happen. I think that Carrie has a bigger than HUGE chance of winning since she has a LOT of fans and she's Simon's favorite but I really really like Bo. Oh well, whatever happens happens.


    Oh, pahabol lang. Did you see Constantine earlier? That was the highlight of the whole episode, in my opinion! :) I hope I see more of him tomorrow (I'm sure i will).


    The end of summer is near and I'm bound to start another year as a junior in college. I swear i'll have to do WAAAAAAYYYYY better this semester. In just 2 short years, i'll be a graduate and i'll be facing the mean, real world... sheesh!

    Bored...Is this True?

    Televangelist

    You are 0% Rational, 71% Extroverted, 28% Brutal, and 57% Arrogant.

    As the Lord as my witness, I swear upon the good book that you are indeed the TELEVANGELIST! Characterized by extreme arrogance, self-assurance, and extroversion, you would make a very charismatic leader (or a very despotic one). On top of that, you are also more intuitive than rational, predisposing you to a more spiritual or emotional outlook on life. Thus, you are thoroughly irrational. You also tend to be rather gentle and considerate of others' feelings. Clearly, you would make the perfect televangelist. Emotional, extroverted, arrogant, and gentle, you annoy the hell out of people who have to listen to the feel-good, intuitive shit spewing from your mouth. Not only that, but people may look down on you as a self-centered asshat. So while you are gentle and genuinely care about others, it is quite clear that you still care about yourself MORE. Why is your personality flawed? Because you are too damned extroverted, emotional, and arrogant. So preach your irrational message, brotha-man! I assure you, no one will be listening!



    To put it less negatively:

    1. You are more INTUITIVE than rational.

    2. You are more EXTROVERTED than introverted.

    3. You are more GENTLE than brutal.

    4. You are more ARROGANT than humble.


    Compatibility:


    Your exact opposite is the Spiteful Loner.


    Other personalities you would probably get along with are the Hippie, the Starving Artist, and the Robot.


    *


    *


    If you scored near fifty percent for a certain trait (42%-58%), you could very well go either way. For example, someone with 42% Extroversion is slightly leaning towards being an introvert, but is close enough to being an extrovert to be classified that way as well. Below is a list of the other personality types so that you can determine which other possible categories you may fill if you scored near fifty percent for certain traits.


    The other personality types:

    The Emo Kid: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

    The Starving Artist: Intuitive, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

    The Bitch-Slap: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

    The Brute: Intuitive, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

    The Hippie: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

    The Televangelist: Intuitive, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

    The Schoolyard Bully: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

    The Class Clown: Intuitive, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

    The Robot: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Humble.

    The Haughty Intellectual: Rational, Introverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

    The Spiteful Loner: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Humble.

    The Sociopath: Rational, Introverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

    The Hand-Raiser: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Humble.

    The Braggart: Rational, Extroverted, Gentle, Arrogant.

    The Capitalist Pig: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Humble.

    The Smartass: Rational, Extroverted, Brutal, Arrogant.

    Nostalgia Due To The Heat
    |

    These past few days have been soo freakin' hot! SO hot that I barely have the energy to get out of bed and face the day. Lying in bed, a lot of thoughts get into my head. Most of which, are related to my childhood. I remember being cooped up in our house because I was afraid to go out. I had friends and playmates but they'd go to our house always. When I went out, everybody made a big fuss because my face wasn't seen often in our neighborhood. I enjoyed quiet games of tea parties and dress up and dolls, I never was good in playing tag and other games which included running and jumping. Even then, I hated being sweaty. While my other playmates were drenched in sweat, I was in a neat, dry shirt with baby powder on my body. I tried to go out more often, play with the bigger, more active kids but it just didn't work. I was contented with my little dollies, playing oh-so-quietly in one corner. I guess I was a quiet kid and I think that I still am that quiet kid.


    I think.

    Interestingly Ironic

    Did you know that one member of the "BEACH Boys" died of drowning?

    How ironic is that? I'd hate to think how his death would be if he were a part of Guns and Roses. Just thinking out loud. :P

    Sizzling!
    |

    Seize the day(s)

    As I said before, I am swamped with family activities this week. Nothing fun or worth blogging about. Mostly dinner get-togethers and just chilling with the folks but you know what, I like hanging out with my family. I know a lot of you would rather chill out with friends and as much I love spending time with my friends, I guess I will always be a homebody at heart.

    Blogs!

    A friend of mine has finally decided to take the first step in overcoming her shyness. Visit her blog and read on. A lot of interesting posts there. Oh, and I'd like to welcome another friend to the blogging world. I know she has been working on her blog for quite some time and i'm glad its finally done. Welcome, Jona! =P

    A VERY Summery Summer
    |

    I'm afraid I won't have time to assess my summer vacation in the coming days/weeks so i'll go ahead and try to make sense of my summer vacation 2005. =)


    Gimmicks, Outings, Etc.


    In this aspect, i'm giving my vacation a 4 out of 10. Sure, I haven't been able to go out as often as I would've wanted to but I can't say that I've been imprisoned within our house's 4 walls either. I've had my share of mall days, family get togethers/(semi-disastrous) outing and parties (?!). I think that my summer vacations often see action towards the end. Sure enough, this coming weeks will be a bit events-laden with all the family activities and the upcoming trip (which, hopefully will pull through) with my friends. Wish me luck with that! :)


    Productivity


    I've been very productive this summer. I've reprised my role as an ever insomiac writer, I've had the chance to write to my hearts content and I am very happy with the results. Unfortunately, I haven't had much time (or energy) to sing as mucha s usual. Unlike the past summers when my relatives would often hold singing" get togethers just so we could annoy the shit out of the neighbors, this years unbelievable heat prevented us from frolicking and going out. Sayang. :) Although i'm hoping that when the school year finally comes around, I could annoy the hell out of my blockmates. Haha! Kidding!


    Misc.


    I've gotten to meet a lot of people this summer, I got to make new friends (c/o this blog) and I also got to reconnect with old friends. I've revamped my blog template to something more...um...mature(?!) and i'm happy with how it looks right now. I learned how to cook sinigang and pinakbet, i've baked yummy brownies and cookies for my mom and dad, I had a fun birtdhay celebration with my relatives and well, I could probably wish for a better summer but this summer ain't all that bad either.

    Just a Thought...
    |

    Whining. That's what they (my brother and dad) said I was doing when I watch American Idol. I whined when Anwar got booted off, I whined even louder when Constantine got booted off as well. Whining. That's me (as my dad and brother sees it).


    Exhibit A: When my brother was watching this NBA game with some old team, he was pissed that his preferred team wasn't making the "right moves", the right offense, defense, whatever. I told him he was whining but noooooo. He was complaining.


    Exhibit B: My dad was watching a replay of Charmed with me when he started pointing out that the show is complete crap. That the story line is weak, the characters weren't very inetersting. He said that he couldn't understand why I was watching that instead of watching some old show he likes. But he wasn't whining. he was criticizing.


    Verdict: Boys and girls aren't that different after all. No matter what we call it (whining, complaining, criticizing, whatever!), we still get affected by seemingly shallow shows. At least thats one thing we have the same thing in common.

    Jumbled Jumbly Jumbles
    |

    I can't believe I forgot to thank the people who greeted me on my birthday. Of course, most of those people are from my class
    and my old time friends and a couple of nice bloggers. :) So, before I forget (again), thank you for all the grettings. I did
    have a happy birthday.


    SUMMER SUNSHINE


    Summer is my favorite time of the year since its the time when everybody's heading down to the beach, wearing flowery
    clothes, showing off beautiful tanned bodies. Unfortunately, this summer has been the least productive one i've had in
    quite a while. It's too hot to go out and everybody's too tamad to go out anyways so I'm always at home. The most exciting thing
    i've done this summer is go to Laguna with my (not-so-close) relatives. We got a private pool and we just wallowed in the water
    for around 7 hours. :) That was fun although I didn't really enjoy since I wasn't really close with those relatives.


    We're currently planning a beach trip (Vea, Shobe, everybody else) for next week so that's something i'm looking forward to.
    I've been dying to go the beach and Vea and Shobe seems like the PERFECT companions. I'm hoping that this trip will push
    through because I need more activity during summer vacation. (especially since my only activity so far is watching american idol,
    charmed, america's next top model...basically, i'm just watching everything on TV).
    I'm expecting that my remaining weeks of my vacation would be filled with fun and excitement. If you have anything, tell me! I'm dying for something new! :)
