Just came from SM and Ayala w/ Hazel and her mom. Hazel bought a digicam coz she really already needed it so I'm really happy for her too since we can take lots of pickies now!! Wheee..
Tomorrow is Buwan Ng Wika so we gotta wear National Dresses and I'm wearing this really yellow dress. I feel that it's making me really stand out (coz of the yellow) but I don't really mind. As long as I have a dress since JWEA is planning to mark us absent if we didn't have a dress.
Today wasn't so bad after all, I was just looking through pictures and I came across the pictures we took during our weekend in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (my mom's graduation gift for me). It really made me miss my mom and my sister so much coz it was an all girls weekend, my dad didn't come along coz he had work to do, and i was great. Lots of shopping, lots of pictures, sightseeing, and I got to see the Petronas Tower up close. Hmmm, memories. The pictures really made me sad and happy at the same time, Awww. I miss my family.

Currently listening to: Coldplay - Daylight.
I'm so bored. It's 11:22 pm on a Sunday night and there's no school tomorrow. It's National Heroes Day today so they declared tomorrow a holiday. Plus our teachers are said to have their recollection tomorrow. So it's a no-school day for me. Wheee.
I don't know what I'm gonna do tomorrow. Hazel slept at my house last night and today I didn't go anywhere, I slept all day and just watched TV. What's more to life?
That's just today though. It's gonna be intrams soon (end of September) and I'm joining the cheerdance. I was gonna join soccer but I heard the coach was a killer, so I did cheerdance instead coz I love dancing and I miss it alot too and also thought it would be the most easygoing and the most laidback thing to join. Boy was I wrong. The stretches and practices are crazy. Practices MWF at 7-9pm and on TTh my classes are at 7:30am. I'm not gonna back out coz I'm having fun, although it's hard, and it would be a really good way to exercise and getting used to my stretches so that my body won't shake a lot anymore. Hehe^^ it would also be good to improve my energy and my stamina so that I'd be healthier and taller! Whheee..Our first practice was on Friday and we finished at almost 10pm and I was afraid to commute home at that time so I took a cab and decided to sleep at my best friend Geo's house since it's quite near to school. I still had an 8am class on Saturday and I still went back home that morning and reached school at 8:30 so the teacher marked me absent. Hiks. The worst part is we ended up having no class, the teacher just gave us something to research and took our attendance and that's all. But then that afternoon we had our CI (Community Involvement) at some Barangay place full of really poor people. (What a good way to spend the Saturday afternoon) But then after that whole thing I went to the mall with Cristina and Rom, in my dirty dirty PE Tshirt and shorts w/ my un-washed Adidas shoes and bought a Mango Thirsty to cheer me up and went home straight away and slept till 6pm.
I was gonna sleep at Geo's house again last night but it rained to heavily that she couldn't pick me up, so Hazel slept in my house instead.
That's about my rundown for the weekend. Tomorrow's a holiday, so I'm gonna utilize it to go to the mall and go shopping, or maybe watch a movie. (Bewitched!!) Speaking of movies, I watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on Wednesday w/ Hazel and Kristel, (errm we cut class since it was the last day) and it wasn't bad, I didn't really agree Johnny Depp being Willy Wonka though, I thought he didn't really fit the part. (But still, his acting was marvelous as usual.)

Wheee..Hale concert was great and such an experience, it was just soooo bitin! Gawd, I was kinda irritated a little..they started at 11..and Orange and Lemons performed a little bit too long, I guess that's what made Hale kinda bitin for me..^^"
But they're performance was absolutely breathtaking..and what I was so shocked about was they sang one of my favorite songs in the world which is Trouble by Coldplay. I guess I almost cried when they sang that coz I didn't expect it at least one bit. They started to strum the beginning then stopped. Hazel said, "hey isn't that Coldplay?" and I was like noway then a few seconds later they played Trouble and I had to tighten the grip on Hazel's arm to keep myself from breaking down hahah. We were at the middle of the stage at the complex then we moved at the very back to take a better look at the band and so that we could sit too.
Overall it was ooowwwkkaayyy..**/ of course it increased my liking for Champ, who is of course absolutely H-O-T and the voice.....Well you decide.

Why do we choose to get hurt? Why do we always fall for the ones which are absolutely not right for us? Why does this kind of thing (I won't call it love since I don't think of it that way YET) always end up hurting us and leave us feeling alone..While the ones who care for us and really love us, that's how they are feeling, the way we are.
Things are very chaotic in my life right now when you look at it at this aspect. What do you get when you fall for someone who's not right for you after all? What's worse is that you think that you DO feel something for him but at the end you're just not sure? You've both done things that make each other happy, have fun and feeling content with that person but you get a knock on the head at the end of the day thinking, "Why can't it just be right to be friends?" "Why does it feel so wrong to be just having fun w/out having a serious or a somewhat relationship?" It might be weird, but this is the very first time I'm experiencing this. Usually when I'm having a great time with a guy and things go really well for us I can already expect what to happen next, whether to become or not to become friends (meaning to pursue a further relationship). But why with this certain person I just can't tell? When I think that, "Oh, let's just be friends. I guess it's better off that way." Then I get that crazy feeling in my mind from my heart, "WHAAAATTT?". And it's just so weird.
This situation is one-sided too. We both totally have different minds and we both can't read them at all. I guess that's what makes it challenging for me, coz I'm so dying to find out what's on his mind. We forget about ourselves when we're together and I can't think of anything except what's going on but after that I get the weirdest feeling. A mind full of questions, a rack in my brain full of question marks. It's crazy, and frankly, as much as feeling this way isn't boring, it still doesn't feel nice.
This is the first time after so long that I'm feeling this way again.

I've just been here in the Cebu for approximately 3 months but I've realized that there has been so much changes in me now. Well not so much, but I feel that there have been modified traits and habits within me (weheh) and now, I would like to share it with you. (did this last night actually)
1. I have learnt the art of having house keys with me wherever I go.
2. I have to reload the credits of my cellphone AT LEAST once a day.
3. I have learnt the art of commuting.
4. I have learnt the art of make-up. Yes, especially the art of the cheek tint.
5. I go everywhere by myself or with friends. Rarely with the supervision of the adult.
6. I never ever wear my adidas shoes anymore outside PE classes. In fact I hardly wear sneakers anymore, my footwear now consists of slippers, sandals and round-toe, point-toe, (you name it) PUMPS.
7. I don't watch TV. What I mean by that is I don't watch any of those Filipno sitcoms shown from 7-10 pm, it goes with the maximum of once a week.
8. Always turning the AC off whenever I leave the room. (yes because WE pay the bills now, unlike in Jakarta, where every single thing in our house is free).
10. Sleeping early. The time range of 8-10pm. But I still have my 11-1 nights, usually on weekends.
11. Wearing school ID at all times in the campus. (there's no such thing as school ID in Jakarta, haha actually there is, but there was no such thing of wearing it.)
12. Keeping a make-up bag a.k.a Kikay Kit (uugghh!). With contents such as a loose face powder, a compact face powder, lip gloss, lip gloss w/ color (brush type), eyeliner, colorless mascara, the famous CHEEK TINT, sometimes eye shadow, and a spray containing alcohol. (weird huh? I had no such thing as a make up bag in Jakarta, I hardly even put anything before I leave home. Now I can't leave hom without putting something.)
13. Walking at least 1km a day wearing black high-heeled shoes w/ foot stockings. Yes I'm very good at that now.
14. I have learnt the art of the "Theresian" walk. Since it's an all-girls school, there's this trademark walk that everyone walks in. It's so weird that without even noticing it, especially learning it, or even trying to do that walk, it overpowers you until you walk that way. I don't know, I guess it's an epidemic of the walks. Haha.
15. No more pencil cases. All I bring to classes is one pen and one tip-ex/white ink.
16. The art of having a coin purse besides having a wallet. Yes, coins are VERY ESSENTIAL here in the Philippines, unlike in Jakarta where you just throw coins in the trash can coz you don't need 'em. Hahaha.
17. I eat breakfast now. Yes I do and that's every day of the week. (Coz I never really ate breakfast in Jakarta.)
18. Taking a bath with cold water. Before, I used to cringe at the thought of taking a bath with cold water, coz I never could live w/out my hot and cold shower in Jakarta, but now surprisingly, I have to take a bath w/ cold water.
19. I bring a handkerchief at all times. (as my bezfwen Noemi would say, it's so FILO..hahaha)
20. I got addicted to post-its, they're all over my books and my computer table. Pink, yellow and green --> all colorful.

It's just weird. Yesterday was actually almost like a miracle to me, there were actually NO CLASSES, since we had some holiday. But you know what I did? Stayed at home and did exactly nothing productive for that matter. Well except the fact that Hazel took me to a dinner party with her coz of her dad's cousins something party..so yeah we had free dinner. But that's it and that's not the point, I could have gone to the mall, watched a movie, went shopping but I didn't. And why? I just didn't feel like it. So now in a way it has helped me. I still have extra money that means I saved a few hundred pesos (I can buy the much long awaited "pretty when pinched" cheek tint or that wallet) and I got to rest actually. Including the fact that, today, a Sunday, I stayed at home all day too. Went all "kilig" in the afternoon and watched QPids with Hazel hahah.
So yeah there, the update on my weekend. I'm here now studying "The History of the Filipino People, Chapter 6: The Institutional Impact of Spanish Rule." And boy it's just so interesting I haven't even flipped a page since 30 minutes ago. I'm doing some advanced studying for my test on Tuesday and of course, to help me on my Midterms next week. Yak Yak Yak. I better get back to my studying.

This is my college life. Full of chicks, pretty soon, there'll be cats (haha) but I'll definitely miss my chick world. Grr. Taken in the student's loung using a PalmOne (courtest of Ms. Lydia Camille Soberano), my fellow Business Management Classmate. Enjoy! mwaahh**

There. I changed the title image already. I like how my blog looks. It's so simple..and that's my goal, to enhance in simplicity.
Hehe I just finished doing my 2nd report in History about the State of the Nation Address which GMA made last week. Had to interview people about what they thought about it, and write a report. Hahaii, college is all about reports, but I just hate politics, I don't wanna have a stand and when we had that "Theresians Speak Politics" forum on Monday, I was extremely bored to death. I even ran away from the small theater before it even finished haha (bad me).
It's gonna be MIDTERMS soon, in 2 weeks. Waahh have to do lots of studying, studying, coz unlike PRELIMS, damn this is the real thing. And the day our midterms are ending is the day Hale will perform. I hope that will be a good reward for all the hard work I'm gonna put into studying. Gonna make this transferring happen so that I'll have good credits and won't be an irregular. PRAY FOR ME!

I don't really like my layout. I just like the colors but I'm gonna change the pic soon. It looks like it's too stretched. Eww. I prefer making really simple skins coz firstly, I'm not an HTML pro, and secondly I wouldn't go all the way to make one. I don't really have that much time and patience to do so.
I'm so relaxed everyday it's like I actually don't know what I'm doing. People said that the first semester of a college freshmen is always the most relaxed, I have a problem though. I don't know if I should shit Universities next semester. I'm really thinking hard about it now, I'm still gonna take Business Management, but I'd really like to move Universities. I don't wanna graduate with just a "college" degree, but a "university" degree. Will I be irregular? I really still have to inquire. Ugghh, I didn't know college could be this relaxed and confusing at the same time.
I really miss my parents. I miss my mom especially, I miss her!! Last night when I was online in MSN I was flooded with IM boxes from my friends in Indo, that's when I realized I left so many things behind. But my heart is still there though. I'm having so much fun here so it's like I'm living in 2 different worlds (or countries at least). I'm here in Cebu, but I'm also there in Jakarta. I don't know! It's really confusing.
Confusion is really my middle name for the moment. So sue me.
I am Justine and this used to be juiceee.blogspot.com / I now have my own domain (e-mail me at ohjazzy@gmail.com to find out), I'm just keeping this for the sake of memories. Feel free to look around if you must!
