Remember December.

I just love this song by Demi Lovato :D You wanna know some of the lyrics?

"Don't surrender, please remember, December... we were so in love back then.. are you listening?! The words I'm sayin; don't go that way!! Remember, remember, December,.. please remember...Don't surrender."

Argh. It's like a suicide note. A "DEATH NOTE". Haha.

Well, just bought a new pink laptop from USA - a brand new Intel Core-2-Duo, Windows 7 DELL laptop... and it has a soft shade of silverish pink! I'm lovin' it. MMM! Cotton candy pink.

The picture above is...you know. Me. Haha. Emo. Used my mom's touch screen Samsung camera, which allows everyone to edit pictures directly from the cam.

Anyways, I look pretty :))

This shot is taken at a nearby hut in Ternate Beach (Cavite) and I borrowed the Combo band "Salty Boots" black Taylor guitar.

I was surprised that it was really tuned up:)) Strumming was an ideal breath-taking relaxation during an afternoon at the beach.

I did not swim in the beach. Afraid to get sunburned!!! I have December 25, 26 and 27 shows at Aliw Theater :D

MMMM! I'm kinda bored. Let me share more pictures with you. This is me, with my long hair. Facing the seashore. OUCH! After this shoot my face had tiny bits of sand. It hurts so much, especially when the wind from the sea blows toward my face :W

I got no more words. You better find out yourself :)

MCA Montessori School

It's been three years. THREE YEARS, people! Three amazing years of friendship, hardships and fame. Haha.

I transfered from a provincial school in Binan, Laguna all the way up to the center of the country, Metro Manila. Since I was attending daily ballet classes in Ballet Manila (in Donada, Pasay City), I knew I needed to enroll to a school near the Navy Village we moved to.

One school I knew was the Integrated Montessori Center.

It's such a fancy school! Modern uniforms colored black and white was truly a formal etiquette. But since the tuition fees were unbelievably high.

So we searched for the next school. MCA Montessori School seemed just fine - with the right amount of tuition, and students whose fathers are also in the military.

There you have it! It's my third year in high school and MCA is doing great! ;-D

Lines, Vines and Trying Times

The Jonas Brothers. Sigh. Enough said. Here is their 4th album's new cover. What do you think? ;-]

I spent my high school life collecting their albums and posters. (But I actually skipped the first album=p) Right now, I have like, twenty magazines about them. My door even has a big poster of them pinned up and covered transparently for protection.

So basically I save up for their upcoming CD's and magazines that contain something to know about them, or maybe even learning to play the guitar just for fun. It's all their influence, I know. I've already said that like a thousand times. Ha ha ha.

I wonder why it's called "Lines, Vines and Trying Times".

Nick Jonas explained title, "Lines, Vines and Trying Times' bit of poetry we came up with on the set for our new Disney TV show." On the meaning he stated, "Lines are something that someone feeds you, whether it's good or bad. Vines are the things that get in the way of the path that you're on, and trying times — well, obviously we're younger guys, but we're aware of what's going on in the world and we're trying to bring some light to it."

In their latest press release, the article was quoted saying, "With all these themes, it's easy to see how Jonas Brothers came up with the title Lines, Vines and Trying Times. Says Joe Jonas, "Lines are the "proverbial" lines people will feed you, and vines are obstacles that get in your way." Adds Kevin Jonas, "Trying Times can be relationships, or anything personal to you. No one is alone in that; we all go through it."

In another interview, Nick Jonas explains that the album is "our journal in songs," mostly about "all things we've gone through, personal experiences we get inspiration from." He also added that "we've also been working on trying to use metaphors...to kind of mask a literal thing that happens to us." Kevin Jonas also added that "the overall message is its the same old Jonas Brothers, in a sense" and that they will be adding "different musical instruments that are going to add and build to the sound we already have."

Have you noticed that their albums say something to us?
1. It's About Time
2. Jonas Brothers
3. A Little Bit Longer
4. Lines, Vines and Trying Times

So, when you construct it within one sentence (or two,) it becomes:

...IT'S ABOUT TIME FOR THE JONAS BROTHERS TO SING A LITTLE BIT LONGER EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE STILL LINES, VINES AND TRYING TIMES...

It's great! I should really become an alternative blogger or something. Maybe even a journalist. Who knows.

Sometimes, when I'm completely bored, I search for their guitar chords in the net and play them like, for two hours. Or sometimes I'd even listen to all of their songs in Imeem, and watch a zillion videos on Youtube.

That's just the way I roll.

Since Nick will be Back with Miley...

I'm officially going to make Alexander Ludwig my replacement crush for Nick's spot in my heart. But Zac Efron? He's only my second crush. :-D

I hate Nick right now. I dunno why. Maybe about this picture!!! Argh!!!

...David Archuleta at the Airport...

I could barely remember the whole story.

The only thing I know is that I wrote everything in my hard-bound diary. Yes, it's so complicated! That day was the best day of my entire life. And my head wont let go those black Nokia ear phones, listening to the newly-made playlist - which I named "DaViD".

Wait - - - I'll flip through my diary and I think I should probably write the exact same thing!

Start reading here.

...flip!...flip!...flip!...

-->> The exact date we went home to Manila from Zamboanga. <<--

Whew! Grabe. Tatlong buwan bago naka-sulat ulit ako sa diary ko. Well, nangyari na ang dapat mangyari...

Nakakainis nga at di kita nadala sa Z City! Amp. Una sa lahat, ako ay magiging Juniors na! Finish na Sophies.

Ano ba yan! Ang init dito sa Manila. Kaya pala sa plurk ko yung mga taga-Manila hataw mag-plurk kasi mainit ang temperature. Why am I speaking Tagalog??? Anyways, I became top 2 after all my ballet shows. At least improving from freshman! =]

Tapos Top 1 si Cuevas, as usual. He strived because I think he was grounded. Jogging in the morning, and went back home late afternoon. But now he's a lot better. And what's worse is that my mom likes him. What---??? Error upload guys. (But we talk na to each other! Yes, improving na. Di na kami nahihiya. Makapal na ang mga mukha. Waha.) Tapos... PROM na!!!

Ayayay! I'm gonna take up law. Yah. I wanna be an attorney. And I am sure. It's all of Legally Blonde's infulence. =]] I forgot to tell you na nag-NAT test kami before end ng school year 08-09 sa Catholic School "what-ever"! And we saw KOREAN-gwapo guys who are eventually NERDS. Pero cute kahit naka-tuck in sila. Nyekek. Tapos may girlfriend pala ang crush ko sa school. Tapos dun sa Z City... internet ALL DAY.

So goodmorning.

I just finished coloring from the recent page:-D My aircon last night? I did not feel cold. Even it was my period! Gasp. Speaking of my period, I hope ballet class today isn't that hard as it looks. Although I think I have four classes a day for six days a week for two months. I know I can do it! Anyways, I've changed my handwriting. And the broken news from Zamboanga? Oh yeah. Internet there was insanely fast and faster than Superman. Seriously! Almost everyday I open like, ten websites and in a flash I jump into another. I hate here in Manila. Slow WIFI. But I think I could manage it. I bought a guitar by the way. Argh! It's my second day mens. Why?! Why me??! Oh! About the DAVID ARCHULETA.

I made the name up at the airport (PAL) because I don't know his actual name. And his shirt captured my eyes. So this is the whole story... from Zambo, we were last to come there in flight and when we came there the plane was already boarding and we were like, OH NO!!! It's leaving! So...yeah. But it was fun racing through those scan machines. Sad though, that I may not be going back there anymore. I'm sure I'll really miss it.

So we ran up and went there so fast and I hope my guitar is not out of tune from travelling.

And then I saw from business class - a guy who looks like David Archuleta - and what's even better is that he is wearing my favorite color - a purple shirt. But actually it's dark violet.

As I grabbed my seat (two lined-seats at the back from his - or three, maybe?!...) I described him in my head - he had pink, rosy cheeks, and I can hear him speaking to the stewards there who assists him in fluent English. But he was alone in his line and no one to talk to. (I think he was alone the whole flight! You know. No parents there.) And he looks like David A.!!!

For a moment there, he looked at me.




...





...That I was maybe, playing the guitar. Then we went down the plane, I didn't get the chance to look at him again.

(But I heard him unfastened his seatbelt! Wow, I'm so detailed.)





In the airport, of course I had to pee!

So when I got out, I saw him and passed by right in front of me!!!

And saw him again. But I was just glancing and can't really remember his ideal face.



So I told myself he was David.




...



Wait! There's more! At the baggage. You know, the huge revolving thing when you get to the airport. Then I saw the left side of his cheek. It's really him, I mean, he's really "David" from Business Class. (Wow, mayaman.) Tapos...tapos...tapos, ugh! I really love the hair.

So when our bags were already complete, we walked away silently and...

...I didn't look back.




But my memories were on playlist.

♥Mother!♥

*I can see my mom sitting on the bed, and I'm writing this blog down exactly 2:53pm, and she's writing down stuff...for our new "kasambahay" - the younger sister of our former helper. I can see my mom is stressed. I hope one day, when I grow up and be a lawyer, I'd earn up all my savings to buy her a big rest house near a beach. That's what she wanted! I want my mom to be happy always, so I'm going to do my best to make her happy.*

Anyways, here's a pic with my mom. Are we sisters? haha. No, we aren't, but we do look like sisters from a distance. One day I'll be taller than her.

What can you notice from the picture?

...

Correct! ~the shoulder pose~ (originally from Vanessa Hudgens)

...

P.S. - her favorite song that she wanted me to play is This Is Me.

♪♫♥My Friend Farida♥♫♪

Good afternoon!

Last night, she chatted with me in YM and I told her about this blog spot. She's Maryjess Farida Presquito - a 14 year-old upcoming 4th Year. (Awesome, right?) Matalino. Hehe.

Well, rockerz na si Far before natuto akong mag-gitara. (Just look at the picture! Sa plurk nga, yung location nya is France. Haha. Dahil sa hat.) :D

So! (Far, are you reading this blog right now?) I hope you do! :-) As you see in her picture, her guitar's brand is also her second name. We chatted about it and I was surprised that --- there was a brand named after her? I mean, wow. The only guitar I know with a first name is Taylor (from Taylor Swift, from her famous chart-topping Love Story)!!! Yun pala may FARIDA guitars din. I told her nga sana I also had a guitar like her;-D

(Arrgghh...nauubusan na ako ng words.)

...hmmm...
Ay! E2 pa, I grabbed one of her pictures in friendster: (and cool. I thought edited lang! hehe)

Miss ko na ballet friends ko...sa BM!!!
...Summer Workshop na!! Excited na ako.

Love you guys! Join kayo dito sa blogger;D

2009 Nickelodeon's Choice Awards

Hey! I kinda forgot that today was April 12, and Nickelodeon's Choice Awards. TODAY. I really forgot!!! Good thing my ka-plurkmate (in http://www.plurk.com/) reminded me! Foxxy did. Thanks foxxy, if you ever read this!!!

So when I flipped the channel to 35 (cable? I dunno.) I saw hottie Leonardio de Caprio (tama ba spelling?) saying his speech when he got an award. (wait, I saw from one blog a while ago in blogspot that Robert Pattinson won't be attending. Maybe because of the New Moon movie?) After that, I went back chatting in Plurk about waiting for the Jonas Brothers to perform. Live! (Their voices sounded weird, and it was 100% different than you listen to their CD album. -according to my mom- but hey! They look even hotter when they perfom live. Do you agree? :-)

Music at the Park

We are leaving Zamboanga City tomorrow, and my mom told me to take pictures outside the mansion house - with my new toy:-D (That's what I like to call it.) So I agreed and wore my athletics clothes because we always go jogging five in the afternoon. But actually, before that, me and my mom were arguing what to wear! Ha ha. I wanted to wear my jeans, but she told me not to. It was going to get dirty anyway. But if I did wear my denim skinnies, it was better. COOLER. Yeah, but I can't 'coz she's my mom and I have to respect that. And the jeans are my only pants that I brought here with me. :-) Haha! Tipid?

So... after that long discussion, I finally agreed to wear what she wanted me to wear at the pictorials. (Naks, "pictorial"?) After the shoot (haha, nice term) I figured out my pants were really gonna get dirty. Good thing I wore my purple cotton-capri. Best for outdoors;-)

Here are the pictures. Leave comments in my multiply site:

Electro-Acoustic (part 2)

Hi. I was really in a hurry a while ago, from the older post of Electro-Acoustic. So, I figured out that it was too short, and I thought about adding up some more words into it. But since this is my first time here in blogspot, I don't really know how to edit the blogs yet. I hope I'd discover it right away. And also to get friends here? Seriously, are there really "friends" here? I feel so alone. And no one's following my blog posts yet. ~Sigh.~

So! Electro-Acoustic. As you can see from the picture (the one with the blue guitar), it's not an ordinary 'countryside-looking' guitar, but I chose the one that's new and imported that's called "Electro Acoustic". And it's colored blue! I love blue. I have a blue door in my room at Fort Bonifacio, and I loved it. It looks so baby-ish and lovely and exciting. But my guitar is different! It's acoustic in a unique way - and electric in a "cool" way, too. (I just love the color. It sizzles.)

I just need to buy amplifiers.

Oh! i forgot to tell you. When I bought the guitar, it costs PhP 2, 450 or something...and it came with free case and plug (Dunno what it's called, but it sounds okay.) and I bought it in a mall here in Z City (if you're not familiar with Z City, follow my blogs:D) with my own money from Lola Basyang shows! (it's a ballet production thing.)

Wait a minute - when I came to the shop, there was this man who owns the store and actually recommends me a brand that I don't like, but it sounds light and soft and so good! But the color, ewww. I don't know, but I really hate beige. He asked me to decide whether to pick either a good sound or a nice color. OF COURSE I CHOSE COLOR!

I'm a color lover, so don't break it.

...Okay. I guess it's all complete! I hope it won't break!

Electro-Acoustic

I finally played three or more songs to my parents so that they will buy me a guitar of my own. Hurray. I bought this with my own money. From Lola Basyang Shows! :-D

...just learning here:-p

First Day of Lesson

My mom and dad bought me something for summer vacation. Guess what--- a Guitar book and DVD! (I thought they were gonna buy me a GUITAR.) They just told me to borrow from someone in Z City... so... it's all fixed, actually. So after that I thanked them for buying me those things, and started learning to play last Monday, (I think that was March 23) and my first formal teacher was Ricky __?__. Yah. Something. So. He is a professional guitarist and he had this purple plectrum (or picks, as Steve MacKay would explain to me from the Guitar DVD) that he let me borrow for practice. It was cool. The only things I hated about it was my fingertips. Argh! They all got red and painful. Hate it. So much. Anyways.

Here's a picture of my guitar. (my BORROWED guitar.) Ha ha.

*I have to master all the chords first before they buy me my own guitar. niceee:-)
