so much for gov't accounting and taxation

2005-12-17T21:35:00.000+08:00

crap. now gov't acctg. class is getting serious. i just passed (75%) the first long exam and to think i really studied quite hard for that one. quite hard because i know i could've studied more. sucks. that just drained out all the morale and enthusiasm i had for school. i'm the type who gets discouraged when i fail at something...which i know is wrong. i have to learn to pick myself up

finally finished reading through the entire handout mrs. echavez gave us for our exam on tuesday on government accounting!!! at long last!!! i will still have to re-read everything later but i feel a little sense of accomplishment, being able to force myself to read that long, boring handout. i hope i get used to studying so that i won't have a hard time cramming when examinations are

christmas in the air

2005-12-09T20:00:00.000+08:00

oh man, christmas is definitely my favorite season (christmas is a season in the philippines, starting from september-january..seriously). i can already smell the cold christmas air and although it would be better to have someone special to spend it with, knowing that your family and friends are there is equally comforting. it's weird how the air around you is cold, yet inside you feel

coffee used to have no effect on me. USED to. now my eyes are wide open because i had to drink coffee a while ago to keep myself awake and study. i am very awake but i'm not studying. oh well. i missed blogging so much. i've been too busy or lazy the past few days. i've started feeling the pressure of really being in school just recently. we're once again bombarded with homeworks,

the carcar fiesta was last november 25 and rhys invited the azure gang to celebrate the fiesta with them. we left around 3 in the afternoon and we got to carcar at around 4:30 pm. we did nothing but sing karaoke until around 8-9 pm. after dinner, arn2x with rhys' sister arrived. while they were eating, we took a couple of pictures at the garden because the christmas lights

2005-11-28T20:02:00.000+08:00

i seriously don't know how to manage my time..i always manage to do things on the eleventh hour and it really pisses me off how i procrastinate so much. arrggh! last friday, we went to the kabkaban fiesta in carcar. it was hella fun and we are very grateful to rhys for inviting us over. hehe. we rode the ferris wheel, played bingo and other carnival games...i won't go into details

lessons for the heart

2005-11-22T23:08:00.000+08:00

government accounting for today was spent talking about love. our teacher told us about her love life back in her college days and it felt like watching a romantic comedy. i hope she doesn't mind me retelling her story here. she's had a boyfriend for 13 years (!!!) but she married the guy she went out with for barely 2 months ~ the guy who's had 12 other girlfriends before her.

governmentt accounting anyone?

2005-11-17T22:15:00.000+08:00

our teacher for our government accounting class really inspired me to work in the government. she was telling us her story and experiences working in the government and i couldn't help but think that that could be another option for me in the future. i have to start thinking about the life after school now that i have only one more year left before i graduate. i want to live a comfortable life

my new favorite movie of all time. haha. it very much exceeded my expectation. a lot of scenes from the book were missing but i couldn't blame them because the movie would have lasted 5 hours or something (but that's not bad at all!). i'm at a loss for words.

i haven't been absent from blogging for that long in a while. my computer is freaking effed up! i'm almost tired with it restarting and not being able to start properly...i'm tired of re.installing windows over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.. that's how pissed i am at it. anyhow, nothing much going on in my life right now. i

2005-11-09T08:56:00.000+08:00

the second semester for school year 2005-2006 has officially started...i feel happy and sad at the same time because although i get to see my friends more in school, i will now have lesser time for sleep and relaxation, tv and...tv. i'm spending 14 hours in school on tuesdays and thursdays. i don't have class on mondays, wednesdays and fridays, although i doubt i'll be spending much of

2005-11-06T00:08:00.000+08:00

after the contest we hung around for a short while in this beach in lapu-lapu where the airport runway ends...you could see planes land and lift off right above you and at night, it's a spectacular sight. the planes looked like huge versions of toy planes with fancy lights. a plane landing from afar looks like a big star coming towards you and the reflection it makes on the sea is just amazing.

2005-11-05T23:03:00.000+08:00

our friend mhealler invited us to join an acoustic contest to be held at lapu-lapu last friday. the screening was held yesterday (saturday) and we thought it was just a small event, to be held in a room with only the judges as audience. we thought wrong. it was a pretty much big event (although the prizes aren't too big..hehe) and the screening was like the real thing..with people in the crowd

finally, school is officially OVER. this semester has been one hell of an obstacle course. i just hope i was able to give it my best and..ehem..get good grades. if you've noticed, i've been absent (online) the past few days. my computer got busted ~ it restarted on it's own and then the next thing i know it couldn't load the o/s anymore. so, i had to reformat and reinstall my o/s.

2005-10-15T23:28:00.000+08:00

most of the day was spent at arn's place with friends, singing karaoke and ehem..secret (there should be no evidence). so yeah, most of them left early but jen, yasser, chowa, jingkai and i stayed a little longer to finish up the long queue of songs. it was a good break from all the non-stop studying for our departmentals on monday...although you can also say that it was a waste of time since i

today was one of them better days. it started off with our little humanities tour/test. the class met up at parian and the test started there. we answered a couple of questions about the heritage monument erected at the place and had to recall bits of whatever cebuano history we had in store in our brains. the sun was blazing hot which made walking to santo niño right after a trip

2005-09-28T23:33:00.000+08:00

today we started our project for humanities - a miniature of the parthenon. our project so far is not turning out really well. first, plaster is not very user-friendly. it dries up so fast that we barely have time to pour it in our molds (for the columns). we ended up wasting like 1/2 kilo of plaster because it hardened in the mixing bowl. the key was to mix the plaster in small amounts so

2005-09-26T20:19:00.000+08:00

man, today was very tiring. the pre-chapter test for law113 went out almost perfect (1 mistake) while the taxation exam was blah. i don't know how to react to that exam..it was not exactly hard but it was such a pain in the ass. the instructions weren't clear, the identification part had problem-solving questions, and the problem-solving part was pretty long and confusing. it's not

There was a misunderstanding with the bus drivers and they didn't come back for the rest of us who were impatiently waiting. Anyhow, the bus did come and we couldn't wait to get to Vista Mar and enjoy our day. We arrived in Vista

I haven't felt this much pressure in a long time. Aside from the usual demands of our subjects, I have more things to worry about. The upcoming acquaintance party this August 28 (it was moved from the 27th) is giving me a bit of a headache. I had to run after the class representatives to collect their payments for the said event. Some of them are very evasive and I've run out of load texting

i've found a new home on the net. it's a lot cooler than blogger because it's not only a blog, it has photo albums, you can share music, videos and others. plus, you get to link up with friends or family, you can also join groups you share the same interests with, etc. drop by if you want. ^^http://jekert.multiply.comi'm not abandoning this account though. i'll be cross-posting.^^

Well, this time's no different...I just thought it's been a long time since my last update so whatever words I could type in would be okay. I'm still alive, just so you know. Nothing much going on.

I'm still in the 2nd episode but from the looks of it, Halu (Kimura Takuya) could not resist falling for Aki (Takeuchi Yuko). I think I'll enjoy and am looking forward to watching the entire series. I can't wait for Jenat to

I can't believe the series shall soon be over (OK, maybe not that soon - I heard the last book will be out 2 years from now..is that right?). Although the story has been spoiled for me, I still look forward to reading the book, cover-to-cover, and enjoy every word of it. It's been a long time since I've read the Order

I've gotten tired of the entire issue that I didn't bother watching her speech on TV. If I were to decide, I would let GMA stay and kick the hell out of the people who know nothing but complain.2) The weather was a little effed up. It

They were looking for volunteers to help out in their projects for the deaf but I'm already too busy with my other organizations that I had to back out. I really wanted to volunteer, though. I'd be able to spend time with the deaf, learn from them, and really help them.

She still looked cute in the video and I like the whole dancing-around-the-fire-and-signing-the-song thing.

I envy the deaf-mutes who talk to each other using signs - the hand movements, the expressions on their faces - sometimes I even think signing is better than using words. I wanted it so much that the world actually conspired to make me learn the language.Yesterday, I found out that our

WaaaaAAAA...it's the weekend at last!!! This has probably been the longest week ever! I've been in school 6/7 days and on Sunday, I have to attend the Opening Ceremonies of the Accountancy Week. We're having a parade from the Cebu Business Park to the University of Southern Philippines - Lahug Campus. I like parades though so I'm looking forward to that one.

twenty and loving it...not

2005-07-07T23:14:00.000+08:00

Today was the day I turned 20. Time indeed is a thief, stealing my nineteenth year (taken from a poem we recently discussed in Literature 2, forgot the title and the author) and left me a year older. Could I be much wiser today than I was yesterday? I hope so. Being twenty must have a couple of benefits. I now treasure the relationships I make with people more than I did yesterday. I've

my last night as a teenager

2005-07-06T20:48:00.000+08:00

I can't believe how time flies soooo fast. Feels like it was just yesterday when I turned 17 - and I hated it because you're caught between being a child and being an adult. But now, I would do everything to be 17 all over again (ok, maybe not everything). Anyway, so yeah, 3 hours and a couple of minutes from now, I'll officially be 20. Yep, 20!!!! Seriously, I can't imagine myself being that old

FIGHTING!

2005-07-05T21:04:00.000+08:00

...as the Koreans would say to encourage someone. Fourth year college is no joke - add to that the pressures from my different organizations. I'm already pooped this early. It scares me looking into the future - things I have to organize as Division 4 Chair and as Committee Head for Spiritual Formation (Youth Ministry). I know though that I have to do this...for personal fulfillment. Just so

I've so many things to do!! But so little time...

Damn you AUDITING PROBLEMS exam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Shit, I haven't started studying yet and my exam is this Saturday already. I probably won't have enough time to study tomorrow since I have classes the entire day. I didn't study today because I went out and watched a movie (House of Wax)...yes, stupid me. I hate how I falsely assure myself that everything will be alright. Many times I've

I can't breathe through my nose right now..it's all clogged up with you know what. I have cough and I predict that I'll have a fever tomorrow. I kinda like having a fever when it's raining...I stay in bed the whole day while my mom takes care of me (i like eating hot noodles on rainy days when I'm sick). BUT - I have so many things to do for school so I have to be okay by tomorrow.In the morning,

back to the past

2005-06-25T00:58:00.000+08:00

It's probably the sudden change of weather here in the Philippines that's causing me this really annoying cold. I can't stop sneezing and now I am starting to cough as well. I hope I don't end up with a fever because that would really destroy my plans for the weekend.Today, I spent a couple of hours in the afternoon looking for articles on local newspapers about Cebuano Architecture. We are

2005-06-24T01:06:00.000+08:00

I'm feeling kind of weird today. Actually, this started last night, before I went to bed. All of a sudden, things I've been doing the past couple of days flashed back in my mind and got me all confused. Just when I feel like I'm being me again, I don't recognize myself anymore. What is wrong with me?I am the most understanding person in the world. If you happen to be my friend, I would be the

First week of school

2005-06-21T21:18:00.000+08:00

Wow..it's just the first week of school and everyone's dead serious about class already. All my teachers have shown up, we've already had exams, and a lot of homework and reading to do. Anyway, since I'll mostly be talking about school for the next 4 or so months, might as well familiarize yourself with my subjects.LAW 113A - Law on Negotiable InstrumentsMy teacher for this class is my favorite

Independence Day

2005-06-12T19:52:00.000+08:00

It's the Philippines' 107th Independence Day today. Yet, it's sad how we've grown so slowly that other countries which gained their independece a lot later have become more developed and more prosperous than us. And it's not getting any better. News regarding President Arroyo's alleged cheating during the elections have surfaced again and this time they have hard evidence - audio tapes of the

last april 9, 2005, we set out from the city to journey into what could be the greatest 1-day vacation of our college lives. this was a week before the comprehensive exams. our friend darl's was celebrating her birthday in advance in her hometown, the province of argao. we've been here before - mhealler, rhys, dajay and i - and we have created memories we very fondly recall everytime we hear

K-drama being shot in CEBU!

2005-05-24T23:15:00.000+08:00

I couldn't believe it! While watching Memories (Hearts) in Bali one time, i thought that they should shoot a drama here in cebu (memories/hearts in cebu? hehe)...and they are, or will be!!! sheeet...it came true! I don't know the actors though...it doesn't matter. as long as cebu gets the spotlight (even if it's just for 2 episodes), that's cool already.Korea chooses Cebu,Philippines for

today was the day i officially became a star wars fan. i've seen the 4th, 5th, and 6th episodes a looooong time ago i don't remember anything (except for the ewoks and that really big fat guy) anymore. while everyone was watching episode one on vcd, i was in my room uninterested. i saw the entire 2nd episode and it was like i was not watching it...i only remember yoda's kick-ass fighting scene.

2005-05-23T02:30:00.000+08:00

i am bored, as usual. i want to do something but i don't know what that thing is. hmm. it's weird. when i have something worth posting, i become too lazy, therefore i don't update my lj. but, when i'm in the mood to update, i don't know what to talk about.i can't wait for school to start. i'm tired of my everyday summer routine - which is basically like that of a pig. i hope i didn't grow fatter.

so much for my promise of updating everyday.tonight i just finished the entire korean series "sweet 18", starring han ji hye and lee dong gun. my classmate lent me a vcd of the entire series and i have been watching it for the past week, 2-3 episodes per night. i'm not good in giving reviews so i won't bother going deep down into the whole story. all i can say is that han ji hye is uber cute, lee

2005-05-09T20:14:00.000+08:00

haha! at long last, i got the results for the comprehensive exams i took 2 weeks ago. and yes I PASSED!!! haha...surprisingly, i made it in the top ten and ranked #4 with an average grade of 97%. haha. it's nothing to brag about really because our raw scores were really low. instead of dividing the number of items we got correct by the total number of items in the exams, they used the highest

2005-02-24T23:21:00.000+08:00

I can't believe i'm hooked to a romantic series. Yes, I watched Lovers in Paris - but that was mainly because it was funny and Kim Jung Eun is really cute. Save the last dance for me (local title), is a little more serious, and although it revolves around the usual amnesia plot, it is not like your usual melodramatic series (not for me, at least). Eugune is very pretty...and her acting is
