Yesterday and today’s meme…

Posted by nona | random thoughts, Tag | Sunday 10 August 2008

I had a long weekend; the company gave us a holiday to support the Olympics in Beijing last Friday which started at exactly 8:08:08. We supposed to go to Beijing the day before but we couldn’t get a booking because all the flights were full, even the bullet train was jam packed also. Nah-uh…! My Chinese friend had told me that the costs of hotels in Beijing were soaring high because of the event. So we changed our plan; instead we just went shopping in another city, we-ha! :D Most of the malls were having their grand summer sale…30% to 50 % discount. There were autumn clothing’s now on display. Time flies so quickly, feeling ko kakatapos lang ng winter since dry season here is shorter than cold days  and  in a month’s time, fall is coming.

Here’s the MEME!

You Are 37% Bitchy


You’re a pretty sweet person, and you’re definitely not prone to bitchy outbursts.                

Sometimes, though, you can’t help thinking mean thoughts about people. But at least you don’t act on them!
 
      

I’m not tagging anyone in this meme, if you want to test yours just visit the site.

I’ve got another one from sis Maiylah, here it goes…

THINK BACK TO 4TH YEAR HIGH SCHOOL…LET’S SEE HOW MUCH YOU REMEMBER AND HOW MUCH YOU REGRET…

WHAT SECTION ARE YOU?

I belonged to section one.

WHO WERE YOUR SEATMATES?

I was seated in the front row on the left side with Cristina and Lorna.

STILL REMEMBER YOUR ENGLISH TEACHER?

yup. She’s Miss Linda Amar

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CLASS?

Biology

MADE FRIENDS TO LOWER YEARS?

yes, but some of the lower years students were aloof or not that friendly because they think our batch were intimidating…’though we’re not.

HOW WAS YOUR CLASS SCHEDULE?

hectic! I think, it’s normal for all graduating students. Our classes took 8 hrs a day with 30 min recess in the morning and 1 hr lunch break. And lots of activities and projects.

MADE ANY ENEMIES?

none so far.good girl eh…

WHO WAS YOUR FAVORITE TEACHER?

Mr. N. Durangparang (nice surname huh), he was the coolest teacher we’ve got. Approachable. I like the way he talked, with cebuano’s accent.

WHAT SPORTS DID YOU PLAY?

volleyball and hurdle. those were the days…I got chicken now.

WERE YOU A PARTY ANIMAL?

nah-uh…strict ang parents ko :P

WERE YOU WELL KNOWN IN SCHOOL?

medyo lang…maybe because I’m one of the school’s *pambato* dancer or maybe because my 2 siblings who were ahead of me and graduated on the same school I was, were popular kaya parang latak lang ako.

SKIP CLASSES?

oh no! I did it once…the principal of school together with our class adviser came to our house and reported it to my parents. I was grounded you know…wala talaga akong kawala.

DID YOU GET SUSPENDED OR EXPELLED?

no and never.

CAN YOU SING THE ALMA MATER?

hmm..not sure. I’ll try later hehe

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE SUBJECT?

Biology and History

DID YOU GO TO THE DANCES?

as long as it’s related in school activities…yes!

WHERE DID YOU GO MOST OFTEN DURING BREAKS?

me and my friends used to hang out at campus kiosk during breaktimes.

WHAT DID YOU DO ON THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL?

we practice our graduation rites and made super bonding time with my fellas…that was my saddest part.

There you go…I would like to hear high school memories from Mari, idealpinkrose, nance, Liza and Ghee.

Got this award from maiylah, thanks sis *hugs* I appreciate it.

I AM… always concious of how blessed I am…
I WANT… to live longer for my children.
I HAVE… learned not to feel under pressure to make things perfect, realizing that many things is beyond my control.
I WISH… Philippines would be a crime free country.
I HATE… people who took advantage of other people’s weaknesses.
I FEAR… of lightning! When I was a 8yr old. our neighbor  was struck by a lightning while fixing their gutter  :(   it was a traumatic scene
I SEARCH… nothing, hmm…none at the moment.

I WONDER… why people had to kill other people…

I LOVE… my family….
I ALWAYS… try to focus on the good stuff…when I replay memories in my mind.
I AM NOT… good at compromising about what I believe in.
I DANCE… to the beat of Shakira’s whenever wherever and La Tortura..can’t help it lol! Le do le le…le do le lele le…yay! pigilan niyo ako!  :D
I SING… whenever I feel the blues started to creep in.
I CRY… a lot. Iyakin ako….
I WRITE… when I hate someone, I pour out my anger through writing so that I cannot say hurting words towards him/her.Mahirap kasi makapagbitaw ng masakit na salita, once na nasabi mo na hindi mo na pwedeng bawiin pa, bawiin mo man…wala na, nasaktan mo na siya.
