fockerized
Posted by starrytrix at 11:21 PM

watching a movie is such a good reliever. after realizing that i am not being productive by just lying around and thinking of such unimaginable things to do, i decided to get out of the house and watch a movie. i am pretty much settled on watching alone when my brother suddenly dashed inside the house so i asked him to go with me instead.
thank God for lrt(byebye traffic,hello convenience!), we were able to go to the cinemas in a jiffy!
and so we watched "meet the fockers" and man, it was insanely hilarious! it was even funnier than "meet the parents". yeah, all the people inside the theater were laughing from start to finish. and dustin hoffman was too funny for words. he was really fit for the role(and still looks cute). try to catch it and for sure, you'll be delighted as much as i am.
one more thing, we watched it at gateway mall at araneta center(yes, id rather call it araneta center than cubao!) and i must say that the theaters were a-ok. the seats are comfy and you get guaranteed seats. and it only costs 99 bucks that's why its worth every penny.
anyway, having a good laugh kept me away from thinking too much. i mean for two hours, i was able to relax and enjoy because lately, i've been peculiarly thinking about so many things that i know i should not be thinking or worrying of!
really weird and stressful.

*thanks jayce for the lyrics of ever after!

tied up and twisted, the way i'd like to be...
Posted by starrytrix at 10:19 AM

gawd, its only 2 days until the much-anticipated v-day! almost all websites are adorned with hearts and their layouts are either red or pink. and everybody's been busy making plans except for me. yeah...since i've remained single(ugh) for 3 staright v-days or so(it's more of an intellectual choice, really.sadly.), i think i'm gonna spend it again with my ever-loyal friends and buddies. or, my date will probably be a few bottles of san mig while listening to celine dion's "all by myself", annie lennox's "waiting in vain" and more of im-oh-so-sad-and-desperate-so-come-on-dwell-with-me songs...Nah...i won't be that forlorn, more so, miserable (this time)! And I won't be too pollyannaish about it this year(though i still affirm that i'm an optimist!) because failed expectations will just cause me chest pains yet i still believe in ever after(see, i'm still positive about this) with you...

yey! ginebra won the all-filipino conference! haha, it only proves that ginebra is still the king(sorry tan!).

one thing more, i watched piolo's movie last friday and i must say that the movie was ok. yeah yeah, i know others will find it baduy but the hell i care, i like piolo(yup, crush ko si piolo!) that's why i swallowed all my pride and went to the cinemas to catch it! good thing my brother's with me to endure all the humiliation(though i really feel for him because he can't do anything but to go with me since i said so!). but we did enjoy the movie because it has a different twist. and the comments of the people inside the theater were even more hilarious than the movie itself. and did i mention that piolo's really cute in this movie?(o, walang kokontra!)

*i'm currently listening to dave matthews band's crash into me and i'm really moved by the song! the tune is enthralling and the lyrics are somewhat luring. here are some lines:
You've got your ball
you've got your chain
Tied to me tight tie me up again
Who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you
You come crash into me
And i come into you,
I come into you
In a boy's dream
In a boy's dream

Touch your lips just so i know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
into me, baby

If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
to forgive me
In my haste
When I'm holding you so girl...
close to me

Oh I watch you there
Through the window
And i stare at you
You wear nothing but you
wear it so well
Tied up and twisted,
the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
into me

vday thoughts
Posted by starrytrix at 02:29 PM

it was a good thing that i surpassed all the puffery and tension of cupid's day with the company of friends and a few songs. well actually, my day did not start right. i encountered a few mishaps while i was on my way to school(i tripped thrice). and much worse, i crossed paths with a dozen or more couples who were sweetly cuddling each other(ugh, i need love!) and savoring vday! there were also some guys who were carrying big bouquets and chocolates, obviously for their special someone. no, don't get me wrong. i am not being bitter nor green with envy(well, maybe a little!). honestly, i feel happy for those sweet couples because apparently, i'm still (secretly) wishing to see myself in their place someday(now it's not a secret anymore!). yeah, call me a romantic fool but there's no other way to describe me best. and that's one reason why i'm a bit reluctant on celebrating that dreaded day. i keep on saying that i do believe in ever afters because i know i deserve to have one. i won't deny the fact that I DO get lonely upon realizing that i'm not with anybody right now. it's a bit hazy and lonely being solitary. at times, it feels good because you can be free and peaceful but most of the time, its the contrary. awfully sad.

though my day was oddly hapless, i still enjoyed it because somehow, a handful of people completed my vday and the day after. i'm really grateful, i'm lost for words.
1. jara, for hanging out with me at the eve of vday and sharing wonderful and inspiring stories. truly one of my coffee buds!
2. daisy and meri, for giving me chocolates! yey, it was so sweet of you guys.
3. chuckie, for giving me flowers! nyahahaha=)
4. glai,kc,leng,mariz,meri&chuckie, for watching dirty dancing 2 with me(gawd, diego's really hot!)
5. lili(my safeguard), for our post-vday celebration. also for listening to all my kilig stories and again, feeding me with your words of wisdom.
6. for those who greeted me(abi,donn,madz,dek&deeg), thanks for remembering guys! you just don't know how much it means to me.

so there, i survived vday with less sadness and tears(unlike the previous ones). it's a good thing that there's this term "hope" for fools like me. i'm still counting on a better vday next year.

*what would you do if you suddenly plummets into a self-made rabbit hole of chaos that it's not even in your plan? would you dig deeper or get out of it as fast as you could?

there you have it! but these words are not yet enough to describe the insanely wonderful friendship we have. we may have had our little misunderstandings(because its just normal!) before but those things did not hinder us from being still intact. it really feels great knowing that you have these people who will be with you no matter what. they've seen me at my best and worst, been with me through the darkest hours and made me smile when i was at my lowest that's why i cannot live without them! i really love these people and for that reason, i'd stay with them. and even if we may be drifting away from each other(since we have other friends now), i'd still be the same and be by their side whatever happens because i wouldn't be who i am right now if not for them.

to carla, joyeen, niki, jacko, madz, dek, lili, katy, eloi, rln and kat...i miss you guys! i love you...mwah!

greatest flaw
Posted by starrytrix at 08:56 AM

too bad, UST lost to Ateneo yesterday! however, the game was really intense that's why i enjoyed watching it. and though we were undermanned(hello, the game was held at ateneo!), i am glad that we boosted(well, somehow we did!) the team's morale by dint of our defeaning cheers and booming drums(yeah, we were loud). and i know that the tigers gave them a good and tight fight! and oh, the BBB was nice enough to cheer for us too after the game. i was really surprised to find out that they DO know our beats(on second thought, not). they cheered GST and go USTe and in return, we cheered go Ateneo for them(nyahaha, i just love that beat). it's a good thing that the pep squads don't take the games personally and if ever, we just leave the grudge(if ever there's any) on the court and in this case, on the field. that's why im damn proud to be a part of the Yellow Jackets!

suaviter in modo, fortiter it re!

im currently listening to the best of d 'sound and man, i must say that their album's uber good! it actually makes me wanna laze around and listen to the soothing voice of the vocalist. their songs are euphonious and it reminds me of those chill-out moments i had with a very special person(wink)! and one of the songs that i'm addicted to right now is "my greatest flaw"(still reminds me of the same person.wink).

*hey, im pretty sure you've already seen the new close-up commercial(what the world needs now is love sweet love...yeah, vday hang-over). do you happen to know the guy in the commercial? man, he's so cute! as in. really. and the guy wearing jersey 17 from ateneo(football), he's cute too. nyahaha!

desperation and satisfaction
Posted by starrytrix at 11:36 PM

last thursday was probably the most nerve-wracking political dynamics class i ever had! all the waiting kept me a bit queasy and i felt like im gonna have the worst nervy spaz in my life. yup, all those uneasiness were caused by my dreaded prelim grade in political dynamics. and when i got my paper, lo and behold, i was 5 points shy of the passing grade. too bad. "really bad", i thought. although i seemed all cool about it, deep down i felt really crushed. and for a moment, all the popcorn i was eating got stuck in my throat. oh well, i guess i have to study triple hard to pass. but just like what kuya art said, the battle is not yet over and we still have a big chance to pass! and being the uber optimist that i am, im pretty sure i'll make it through! i'm still keeping my fingers crossed, though.

anyway, after all the political dynamics tension(it was a good thing we were dismissed early), i went straight to my friend's party at friends in el pueblo. while i was on my way, i told myself that i'm gonna be fine and that i would enjoy the party and forget about the whole thing just for that night. when i got there, everything went well. the whole group was there and everybody was in a good and party mood. after a few rounds of lights, we all invaded the dance floor and danced like there's no tomorrow. the crowd was veritably good but our group was even better. nakakatawa, i thought since i've never seen some of my friends dance like that. most of them are working already(i was with the pep alumni) and i never thought that they would be as fun(in the dance floor) as my other friends. the band played good music and it kept us all up the whole night. and the best(est) thing that happened that night was i bumped into
(sir)wency while dancing. i never imagined that of all places i'd see him, dun pa. and that aboslutely completed my night. we danced and talked and danced again. he's such a sweet guy because he even introduced me to his friends. yippee. spare me because it's been a long time since we last saw each other. he told me he's been busy with work that's why he wasn't able to join me and my co-chairmen in our night-outs. he's one guy i really admire because he can still have fun(and an active social life) while working for his constituents. one more thing, he's the most good-looking councilor i've ever met)as in!). hats off to you, sir wency!

so there, my thursday was a mix of desperation and satisfaction. this might sound an impaired judgment but hell, that's the way it felt. God still loves me because he did not allow sorrow to rule my thursday. He still gave me reason to enjoy all the bliss and good vibes.

*mad thoughts are currently lurking in my head. and this requires another entry so til next time!

remember these moments
Posted by starrytrix at 09:07 PM

i remember your crooked smile
i remember the glow in your eyes
i remember these moments, baby, with you

kind of beauty you fall into
kind of thought makes you painfully true
i remember these moments, baby, with you

do you still see me reach for you
- the way you used to care?
do you still think i should be,
baby, with you?

i remember the warning signs
i remember i paid them no mind
cause i wanted this moment, baby, with you

when it rained but i didn’t cry
when i left without saying goodbye
i remember that moment, baby, do you?

reach for you
missing you
secretly
recalling what has been
- i don’t wanna remember

one of my current fave songs from d 'sound. gawd, it reminds me more of my "second violent breath of life"...
