a bit disappointed
listening to: How Deep Is Your Love - The Bird And The Bee
SINCE IT'S CHRISTMAS... So the plan was that I'm supposed to be at Lola's this Christmas with my cousins (the ones that live here in the Philippines) and their family. I'm supposed to watch Tines (parade with people in costumes depicting the events that led to the birth of Jesus) with Len and Norman. Well, it all didn't happen. Dumating ang Tito ko. Biglaan dahil namatay ang mother-in-law nya recently, so I really couldn't be at Lola's. Then neither Len nor Norman contacted me about watching Tines. *sigh* I was a bit lethargic anyway from the time I woke up.
IDK... I just feel out-of-it. Who would have thought that this Christmas was going to be so boring... (No offense to the Divine, really, it's not You sir, it's me.) Hmm... Perhaps New Year would be somewhat fruitful.
Err. Hopefully.

THE ONLY GIFT A friend of mine asked me if I got a lot of gifts. I would always tell people that the older you get, the lesser gifts you'll receive. Well, in my case, it didn't matter. Hindi ako ang tipong namamasko o nangangaroling. My relatives used to give me gifts like clothes (i.e.) socks. It represents just how much they know me. -_-' But I was grateful back then nonetheless... at least they thought about me, right? And then it was Mom and Dad who would give me gifts. Mom acted as my Santa for a good 2-3 years. I remember how she would give me excuses of how a big box of V-tech fit through the window (with that "bars" and stuff on them). She told me it was magic. I even questioned about "Santa's" messy handwriting. She answered me with, "Well you see, Santa was probably in a hurry." For a year or so I believed her. I remember one Christmas, I got a card for Santa... or was it mere a piece of paper..? Anyway, yeah then I pinned it on the curtain and waited for his arrival. Mom said I shouldn't wait because Santa won't come if I'm still awake. (Translation: I won't let you see me putting your gift beside the window.)
*sigh* Yup. Those were the days. And now? I've only got one gift: A gift from Mom (AKA: my personal Santa). No, it's not something I crave or something I've been wanting. But I suppose, I want it too-- for us, that is. It's something for the future. I recently sealed the deal with Engr. Reyes about the land. We couldn't buy a house yet so that's it for now. That's what she claims as my gift for this Christmas. I don't really think of it as that though. Instead, I think that having my Mom, being who she is and how she is with me, is a gift everyday. It's more than enough to fill any crappy Christmas experiences I had. (And boy, I have a lot of those moments!) So there you go.
I didn't feel the "warmth" of my friends today. This is the first Christmas that all I had were text messages: gm~s and no more than 2 pms that were not Christmas-related. No phone calls whatsoever. No emails. I'll check my friendster later. It's sad, I guess but hey-- they have their own lives. With my lethargy today, I didn't try contact them much anyway so... It's just... different now. IDK. Ah whatever. I'm having my only-child melancholy moment. Enough about this.

R.I.P MADDIE BLAUSTEIN
Last December 11, Maddie Blaustein (48) (sometimes credited as Adam or Addie), died in her sleep. She was a very talented and dedicated voice actress. As were many fans, I was sad about what happened. So sad in fact that I decided to buy Pokemon dvds-- the episodes/seasons that I missed-- just to hear her Meowth performance. I stopped watching Pokemon around the Master Quest season because we moved here in the Philippines and we've no cable. It was then I lost interest in it. Just recently when my friend Reggie lent me his Nintendo DS (for me to play Pokemon Pearl), I felt nostalgic. I don't care what people say (most of them are hypocrites anyway), I loved Pokemon back then (both the anime and the game-- it was the "reason" why I wanted a Gameboy Color) and I still love it now. I guess, I'll always will.

TAKIP SILIM: TWILIGHT PHILS. SERIES Takipsilim is the Pinoy remake of Twilight. It's gonna be a series in ABS-CBN. Fans are currently plotting on bombing the station. No, just kidding.
When I heard about it from Ate Jonah, I was like, "Seriously?", followed by a string of thoughts that led to: the actors that will play as the Cullens (or whatever remake name they'll have) better fit the description or at least close to it. I already have a feeling na baka hindi sila makakuha ng "maayos" na Rosalie. Ayon, tama ako. No offense to Karylle, I think she's a good actress but... I simply can't see Rosalie in her. *sigh* Then I saw Joros will be playing Jasper. I laughed. No offense to him too but... as Jasper? Other people are very much... cruel about it. *sigh* I can't see Rayver as Edward (though I think he's cute.. not Greek god material though..). Shaina as Bella is fine, I suppose, but isn't she too beautiful for the role? (Bella says she looks "plain".) Chin Chin Gutierrez as Esme fits well. Esme's supposed to look like (as from Bella's perspective) Snow White. Lucky Manzano as Emmett is fine too... but I feel as though something's lacking in him. I'm not familiar with the actress who'll play Alice (I was very much hoping for Aiza Marquez (sp?).) maybe coz I don't watch tv anymore. *sigh* My oh my.
Intrigue, intrigue. I think I might want to watch it.
*everyone gasps*

Skin Change: SOON
I worked on it already but I changed my mind recently. *sigh* It's hard being OC. I'll try to find another one then I'll change this as soon as I can.I want to stop wondering "what-ifs".
I need to know "what is".
a bit disappointedlistening to: How Deep Is Your Love - The Bird And The Bee
So what did I do for the whole day, exactly?
I woke up.
I watched 3 episodes of Code Blue.
I took some self-portraits under very inconvenient lighting (what else is new?) at a very inconvenient time.
I also took some pics of Tine2 and I. I'll post it here later. n_n
I edited said pictures. All of them are too damn dark.
I watched 3 episodes of Pokemon: Diamond and Pearl series.
(The new charger for the Reggie's Nintendo DS is busted again so I couldn't play it.)
Surprisingly, I didn't get to eat as much as I expected. It wasn't nearly as much as what I eat everyday (which is actually food trip talaga). Wonder of wonders...
IDK... I just feel out-of-it. Who would have thought that this Christmas was going to be so boring... (No offense to the Divine, really, it's not You sir, it's me.) Hmm... Perhaps New Year would be somewhat fruitful.

Yugi: I mean, I already have every trading card known to man. Why does he(Santa) keep sending me booster packs?
Grandpa: Perhaps it's because he loves you!
Yugi: Yeah, well, maybe if he loved me, he'd get me a Playstation 3!
Grandpa: Well maybe Santa can't afford one.
Yugi: Well maybe Santa could just go to hell then!
Grandpa: Well maybe Santa thinks he'll see you there after he smothers you with a pillow in your sleep!
Yugi: ...
Grandpa: Pleasant dreams, Yugi.
XD That was priceless.
Merry Slavemas LittleKuriboh! lolz

May you rest in peace. "Meowth that's right!"Here are some memorable roles of Maddie Blaustein in Pokemon:
Seymour (scientist in Mt. Moon)
AJ (trainer with a Sandshrew, I think)
Damian (trainer with a Dordrio.. the pokemon race..)
Bill
Lt. Surge
James' father
Meowth (epic win)
random pokemon
others that I'm familiar with:
Solomon Moto (Yu-Gi-Oh)
Dr. K (Cubix)
There's lot more. Truly talented.
