Dear world,
I hope you're okay. If my parents set me free tomorrow, I swear I will find a way and cross the baha to get to Poveda. Whatever it takes to make sure you're all okay ):
You can have that can of chicken soup I've been saving for quite some time. Just promise me that ):
Love, Soli

Dear bagyo,
You really picked the perfect time to come. Why not on a weekday? It's not as if Ateneo would have cancelled classes anyway.
UGHEHHH I'm never going to hear the end of it from mother now. Thanks ah.
Two weeks from now. Friday before finals. EFF.

So I woke up at 1.30something to the sound of my kambing ringtone. Most (if not all) people stay up and savour their last few days of being seventeen. I guess I'm not most people now HAHA WHOOPS.
My first few hours of legalization were spent in dreamland because Judo weigh-in killed my sports!fail body (Losing two and a half kilograms - or at least, if the scale was calibrated properly - after using the bathroom, running and jumping around, and attempting to do work-out blah was worth it though) Not that I minded because ang sarap talaga ng tulog ko HAHA. And, well, waking up to text messages from all sorts of people, special and even a couple of unexpected, makes my heart melt like anything. Thank you for starting my day right :3
So here I am, awake during the wee hours of the morning, reminiscing and all that blah like the strange sentimental (and maybe emo) sap that I am. Seventeen was one interesting year. I felt like I grew the most during those 365 (or was it 366? I don't remember leap years HAHA) days. I fell in love with new things, I lost my passion for others. I gladly made new friends, I sadly drifted from some old ones. I kept a couple of old habits, I made way to new things. I came up with new philosophies, I dropped some of the ancients. I had my fair share of redcar!days, I survived the terrible black!car times. So this is how it feels like to "bloom" and finally grow-up.
Honestly though, I don't feel that bad for missing the last few moments of my being seventeen. It's not that didn't value the year (because I really, really did) but I like to think that perhaps there's some underlying reason to that (and, well, everything in this world. Serendipity?) I always thought birthdays should be spent with yourself first. Like you have to focus on you!time for a while and thank yourself for surviving the past year. I mean, you have to thank youself too for putting up with all the "drama" in your life, right? If not, you wouldn't be here. And once you've given yourself the deserved time of gratification, then you can move on and celebrate with the people who matter (starting with early morning conversations with Charley, James Pe Lim, and Cookie) and then everyone else in the world. So here's me documenting my making time for myself (and for my eljay, who is also part of myself) on this happykiligemosentirant dump that I love.
I shall start replying to the text messages and facebook whatevers tomorrow. I still have an English quiz and a Math quiz to worry about HAHAHA.
Seventeen was just as sweet. I expect much from you now. Bring it on, eighteen >:)
P.S.
Dear world, yes eighteen means drinkification (MAYBE) so go rejoice and look for me during the next party/debut (since there will STILL be no alcohol during my birthday thing WAHAHAHA) No promises but hey, I'll be more open this time =)) |

Dear Dad,
You better be home from wherever it is that you're going in a week. Don't you dare arrive any later or else you'll never hear the end of it from me. You owe me bigtime as it is (and you know, I can compute for interest compounded continuously now HAHA)
And you promised. You didn't say you'd try your best. You said you promised.
I'll look for my house keys and stay up so you better come home on-time.
I miss you already, you know.
Love, Me

My eljay's turned into another meme dump. I'm sorry but ehhh I haven't had that many entry-worth events recently. I check it every so often though.
( Tagged by Lina and Charley on Facebook )
My body clock's been messed up again. I've been collapsing more and more these days at different times (despite the fact that, compared to high school, I've been getting a lot of sleep these days) Maybe it's because I can't fall asleep in Ateneo yet. I don't understand why though. Maybe I haven't psychologically nested or something. IDK HOW TO EXPLAIN =))
I've been trying to write my Lit paper for the past 3534645345346253634 minutes but nothing's been coming into my mind. I don't know how to start it or what to put in it. Oh and I'm aiming for a high grade there (since my majors will be the death of me) so HUUUU INSPIRATION PLEASE KICK ME SOON.
I should really stop distracting myself :/ |

Today, I learned that the world makes it a point to even itself out. Oh and that I'm totally okay with it.
I woke up with the sniffles and a sore throat, I was coughing like crazy the whole day, I ran out of water before lunch, I was forced by my english teacher into some debate whatever, I was made fun of for my conyoness, I got pooped on by a bird on my way to Sec A, my Strawberry!Keds got extremely soaked and I got the birthday planning!fale sermon from my mother.
I'm not depressed or irritated because happy shirts, uber pretty midterms results, uber pretty feature article results, sabaw conversations, amusing screw-ups, rain adventures, kilig kwentos and (a notch above the regular) passing Math grades are all definitely worth the malasness.
If there were more than twenty stones, my imaginary happy wagon would have more (: |

Confusing lives, long test failures and distracting facebook notes led to the answering of another meme. My posts are so random and senseless these days but whatever. I blame college and its sanity-losing effects on me D:
Stolen from Elya. I wasn't tagged in this note but ehhh I couldn't resist. Shuffle wisdom, let's do this! ( So I guess I'll see you, see you around. )
No Mraz songs came out in this one. HUUU howell. At least a couple of Mae ones decided to show themselves o:

P.S. I folded stars today. I am happy (: |

Two days with a clogged nose, killer headaches, sore throats and random stomach spasms have driven me nuts. The meds I've been taking for all of them are killing my already messed-up body clock. I've been falling asleep randomly and because of the sick feeling, mother insisted that I not attend the wake na (I MIGHT INFECT DAW THE OLD PEOPLE)
I'm sorta (just sorta) moody so ehhh I refuse to do the rest of my AMC homework so here's another meme. ELJAY I'M SORRY FOR THE WALANG KWENTANESS THESE DAYS D:
( Stolen from Phets' facebook note since I refuse to update there )
I should really get back to AMC. HUUUUUU.
At least tomorrow I'll be watching that Cinemalaya film thinger with Des in UP. YAY FOR FIL EXTRA CREDIT (and for parents that allow) HOMG ANOTHER UP VISIT OF MAYBE NOT-SO-FAILNESS 8D

Yesterday, I:
01) Almost slammed into the Escaler Hall door
02) Got hit randomly twice (by people I didn't even know) during Judo
03) Walked through killer rains after judo
04) Wet my yellownawhite!pad and my blinding Pre-Calculus book (see previous number)
05) Was careless and screwed up my graphs
Today, I:
06) Got picked on by my block, again (WTF SUPERPOWERS)
07) Barely understood my lesson in Math.
08) Heard the waitresses in Tapa King talk about nerd!me studying Math (in Tapa King)
09) Found out that I couldn't go to the LTO or to the block!HP6 in Shang tomorrow
10) Went crazy on stuff, again.
This is the world establishing balance, isn't it? :/ |

Stolen from Ley who stole it from Pera. Barkada miss-age ):
( This is me, trying to make up for the fact that my eljay's neglected these days. )
Today, I survived my first UP commuting + random!ikot around UP Diliman. Aside from the fact that if my parents found out that I did something as kreysi as that I'd be killed, it was fun. Getting there meant using my non-existent "super powers" and squashing seven people in a small car (and, you know, hiding from the guards because overloading means Php 2,000 down the drain) After all the travelling, going around was fun and exciting, in that strange Soli!way. I think I'd get uber mega lost if I studied there =)) Anyway, my groupmates all saw familiar peeps but ehhh I didn't see any Poveda-UP peeps. Huuuu next time ):
Going back was the adventure though. YAY I rode a jeepney on my own (because I was made to bring a yaya for the CSDC one) for the first time, sorta. My blockmate (the ICAn) and I aren't exactly allowed to do stuff like this so we were super confused. Thank goodness one of my blockmates knew so were were not total failures. Oh and palengkera talk in the jeep means I broke the conyo stereotype (and they said I could actually pass for an iskolar ng bayan =)) ). Thankfully, I made it back in one piece (and with all of my belongings) so YAY LIFE!WIN FOR SOLI 8D
College is still HOMG STRESS FAIL STUPIDITY HUUU for me. I'm struggling with so much stuff, failing all of my subjects and attracting all the malasness in the world. Despite all of this, I'm happy. Prends + gago!blockX + Ateneoness = fiveredcars!Soli.
I still miss high school like crazy. College is fun but, in the words of Daphne, viva la high school ♥ I'm super excited for Trish's debut. PORDI I MISS YOU :">

I wish I wasn't scared to talk about things. I wish I wasn't so afraid of failure. I wish I wasn't that hesitant when it came to new things. I wish other peoples' thoughts and impressions didn't matter to me. I wish I believed in myself a bit more.
I wish I was just a bit braver. |

Today was perhaps the most malas day I have ever had in my entire life (or at least, for now)
1) I got to school at 6.45 despite the fact that my class starts at 10.30. I epal-ed in the MVP and read Beng's english piece (THRICE) until I got bored and just did whatever.
2) I pretty much failed at the friends thing. I thought I made a couple in my block but ehhhhh. I think all the people I've been wanting to make friends with are already paired up with someone else. And the others, well, a couple I'd love to shoot. It's gonna take a while before I find some that will actually stick. Howell if shifting is tuloy, whatever na :/
3) I ended up sitting alone and getting treated weirdly during most of my classes because I'd get there not early, which is when everyone else arrives, but on time (and because not having sticking friends means no one even bothers to save you a seat saves you a seat D: )
4) I'd get to class just on time because I'd get lost again a couple of times. Most of the time it's because of my katangahan but idk I am just a failure at directions. Helper desk guy had to bring me to my AMC class because my wrong readingness of my room huuuuuu.
5) When I went to talk to Assistant Dean on blahblahblah (basta the beadle/beedle howeveryouspellit office person place), it was closed. Ehhhh lunch break bad timing D:
6) The canteencafeteria was uber uber uber full (even in the Solinewlydiscovereditexisted second floor) so we had to eat our plato wraps standing up.
6) Due to the heavy rain, my shoes broke. They were nice brown flats pa naman kay. RUBBER SHOES FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS NA NGA D:
7) The book line was long too so I didn't have time to get the killer yellow math book. I have homework pa naman due soon >_>
8) I realized that my PE class was all the way in the Loyola Gym. It took time before Beng, Chindy and I discovered that the Loyola Gym = the Blue Eagle Gym. OHNOES SO LAYO FROM NEXT CLASS. Oh and it took forever before we found the door :))
9) The bookstore near my house didn't have any graphing notebooks in stock. What kind of a bookstore is that O___O
I bet there are more that I haven't been able to recall yet. I'll add them once my brain starts cooperating :))
- - - - -
I'm not that pissed off about it though. Sure, I'm annoyed and disappointed but I guess this was what I got myself into. I don't regret anything naman. Besides, lots of other awesome stuff happened that day too. I think those would be enough to keep the imaginary happy wagon of Soli full enough (:

Thanks to the putol-putolness of my tulog last night, (Senior sleeping habits again YAY) I actually woke up before seven. Waited for quite some time before the Ateneo site started running properly. After thirty long minutes of waiting and making kulit everyone else online, I finally got to see my schedule.
GOSH IT'S WEIRD. So many holes. LOL I don't even have one permanent break. It changes everyday. And, you know, the Tuesday-Thursday schedule means I will be bulok-ing early in the morning. HUWAW THAT SUCKS :))
Since my YM's being really stupid, here's my schedule. HANG OUT WITH ME DURING MY STRANGE BREAKS. Oh and if you have similar classes, tell me your section. HI FUTURE CLASSMATES 8D
By the way, my PE is Judo. LOL PEOPLE AKA DAPHNE ARE AMUSED. Hey, I'm not that pathetic naman :))
I think I shall go back to sleep soon :9 |

I'm sorry for ignoring you, eljay ♥
Well, I woke up today with a bad stomach ache. Stupid salmon and weird iced tea from last night gave me food poisoning (well, at least, according to dad) Last night, my heart was racing, my head was hurting and my stomach was churning like crazy (other stuff happened to but I'd rather not mention :/ ) At least I don't have to drink my milk today. Ehhhh I still feel sick.
Life's been pretty okay for me. Awesome weather's going to end today so boo. Oh and parents let me drive to my grandparents' house or the supermarket every Sunday, btw (even if my grandparent's place is just a block away HAHA.)
I've been thinking about a lot of things these past few days/weeks. At least they're about other, more rational things now. Not that those other ones don't come in. They still do, but they're in smaller quantities, or something.
College is just around the corner and I'm still in giddy high school summer mode. There's that orientation thinger on the 11th that I'm not really excited to go to. I have no kasama and you know how FAIL I am at making new friends. HUUUUUU BLOCK X I HOPE YOU'RE NICE D:
Well, I don't know what else to put here so here's me pissing off the world by moving that facebook meme. I don't feel like updating there HAHA.
( Crashed into a rack full of magazines )
I tag whoever, really. LOL I don't even think I have enough people to tag over here :)) |

Do you ever have those moments when you're just randomly thinking of different stuff and connecting one to the other until you bump into one that reminds you of something that makes you want to shoot yourself because said something was one you hoped to forget? Or am I not making sense again?
Well, I think I just had one and, yeah, it sucked. Ah life :/ |

I spent 934798237289342 minutes thinking of what to type. I give up. Whatever comes into my head gets typed up. No corrections (except, you know, grammatical errors if I have the time LOL)
I guess last year's trip started out way worse. Wrong conversations with the wrong people at the wrong time led to paper stars, lonely days on the ninth deck and sunsets. Lots and lots of sunsets. Overthinking in some other place is just as bad as overthinking over here in Manila. I swear, going against the definition of a vacation killed my brain in so many ways. Not to mention the fact that I was Internetless and phoneless at that time. Stuff was happening while I was gone. I couldn't be a part of awesome stuff or be there for people. Sucked like anything, really.
Hence, I was worried about this one. Due to recent events (and recent screw-ups,) Peking duck, bottomless iced tea and Disneyland don't sound as exciting anymore. They'd still be awesome but, you know, the memory of something before will be driving me nucking futs again. Despite the pathetic-ness of this statement, everything there would have reminded me of you. (SHOOT ME NOW)
But, I guess, this one's a bit different. Right conversations with the right people at the right time has helped Soli leave certain things behind. The recently-opened bucket has been closed again and there will be no decks on this trip. I still want the sunsets though. Lots and lots of sunsets. But happier and prettier sunsets that won't want me to move my chair forty-four times. One a day would be enough. Sure, I won't have a phone again. That won't stop me from stealing wifi though (hopefully, it won't be crazy expensive) and bugging people whenever I have the chance. Besides, in case I don't get to talk to said people, they'll have other to take care of them and entertain them late at night. I'll still miss out on great stuff but, what the heck, there will be even greater ones when I get home 8D
To the awesome peeps who knocked some sense in to me, pulled me up just in time and made me giggle like crazy yesterday/last night/this morning, thanks. Hopefully, you know who you all are. When I get back, I shall suffocate you with love and maybe randomness from the chongalings. Movie sometime soon? And maybe cookies haha.
So goodbye, friends. I'll miss you all like crazy. See you in two weeks (with kwento kay. I want to hear all of them >:3) I shall steal wifi whenever I have the chance. Hopefully, I don't die of <insert food-related illness here> ILU >:D<
P.S.
You is still a very funny pronoun (: |

Why hello, eljay. It's been a while, hasn't it? At least I'm not forgetting you (and getting a Plurk or something XD) LOL KIDDING. Hi Plurk peeps AKA everyone else. :-h
Summer's been pretty meh. This might be the last REAL summer I'll ever have (due to the fact that the Areneu AMF course eats all four summers) and all I've been doing is either eating, playing stupid Facebook stuff, bumming around the house and getting all angsty (why I'm still like this, I don't know)
I'll blame the fact that I never have transportation to, well, everything. I'm missing out on all the fun stuff happening outside that wooden gate of mine. It's not that my parents don't allow me. It's usually because I have no way there. It gets really really annoying after some time. Huuuuu I will learn to drive and earn my freedom D:
Okay... I honestly lost my trail of thought soo... here's a meme:
( Stolen from Charley and everyone else who came before her ) Well, it's not mostly wrong. Sure, they screwed up with the confidence thing. At least most of it's pretty accurate. Online tests for the bored, you never fail to amaze me o:
So, dear reader of this semi-senseless entry, how's your summer? I'd like to hear about it. I'm sure it's way better than mine, anyway.
P.S.
The Supreme Court Justice idea keeps getting thrown at me. Stop giving me hopes like that. They're actually sticking ._.
