Weekend posting.
FRIDAY
I was absent from class due to fatigue. I haven't been sleeping well (duh, just check out my blogdates. they're all at weird times)
and I have a HUGE amount of things to write. Promised fanfiction and stuff. (Hope's note: I'm not taking anymore at the moment!!!)
Actually, my mum and I were both absent. Both fatigued beyond normalcy.
SATURDAY
I had my mock UPCAT thingie. The rsults are definitely not reassuring.
I finally got to go to church last Saturday. I swear, one saturday without going to church is like several Saturdays. I mish VOSA that much. Ate Maia was there!! Whee..
After mass mum and I watched 'Down With Love' and 'Lizzie Mcguire'. Both are a DEFINITE must-watch. Esp. the last scene in Lizzie. Gyah! KILIG!!!
SUNDAY
Mum and I slept all day then went to the Fort for dinner. We then bummed at Gloria Jean's - another WONDERFUL coffee place that has finally hit the Philippines. The manager gave mum a free bag of Columbian Espresso as a thank you... hehe. Yummy coffee...
I'm an insomniac with a caffeine buzz and a perverted mind! Fear me!!
Hope choked on a razor blade in her coffee 7:45 AM
Listening to my Escaflowne OST- For Lover's Only.
I'm in a desperately sentimental mood... too much angst fiction... watch out people. I'm caffeineited and feeling all weepy...
Gyah.
-mutters Fanfiction titles under breath-
I'm texting with ate mai right now... ah, the pains of being a motherly earth person. It comes complete with hair loss.
Oh, yeah. I would like to say that my tital arlene rocks!!!!!
Thank you for the email T'ardene. If you only had a blog...
Updates: (I have daily updates!! Hectic ng buhay ko.)
- My Science Training Program teacher has just informed me that I have a biology competition next month (It just had to coincide with UPCAT month)
-My mock UPCAT is on Saturday. -meep- prayers please...
That's it for now...
Ah, Thank you to tita cindy for the LJ html... I'll use that when I have to put a story up...

An IQ thingie I got from Ate Mai's LJ:
Congratulations! Your general IQ score is 152.
A person whose IQ score falls in the range of 144-160 is considered to be "gifted".

Destruction, the sixth of The Endless, you are a rebel. You abandoned your realm, refusing to be held responsible for all the disasters in the world. You roam forever, trying to escape what you are. Always on the run, and never facing the truth, you live in denial. It's not your responsibility, it's not your fault, and it's not your problem, even when it is.
The Fiends directed the course of the sun, moon and stars. They were the bearers of the complex patterns that governed the tides, seasons and portents of Heaven. Where they were once oracles dispensing wisdom and warnings, they are now the masters of nightmares and curses.
Once more, cyberspace is oddly empty. I'm typing this bit of bloggage as I scan my mum's pictures. -eyes them warily- I think they're multiplying...
I talked to (please hover!) ate mai and ate mel this morning and I'm meeting ate mel tomorrow! Kaoru's gonna accompany me...
so I can finally give the reading. That sorts makes up for not seeing them both yesterday. I was unable to go to mass cos my mum got sick.
Ate Mel told me the last resort re: what was discussed at SB last friday. I've been thinking about it... and push comes to shove, I'll help them do it. Even though I might regret it.
There's no room for regret anymore.
-pulls out 'The Libra'-
When you weigh regret and responsibility, responsibility should always win.

Back to a happier mood.

-glances at TV, ARGH it's Akasha!!!-
-runs off-
-Nyssis takes over-
Nyssis: God have mercy on the people that love that girl. It's sad, really...
-Koerin whacks Nyssis and takes over-
Koerin: Nyssis is mean. AND she snores.
-Nyssis holds out a bit of Leche Flan-
-Koerin squees and retires to her bean bag with the Leche flan-
Nyssis: I live with genki idiots... save me Nicolas...
-Hope returns and kicks Nyssis out, promises that she'll finish the story soon, picks up Koerin, snitches the Leche FLan and tosses Koerin outside with everyone else-
Hope: -eats Leche Flan- And STAY OUT!
-grumbles- I need to finish their stories so they'll leave me be...
-Andrea pokes her head in-
Andrea: I smell Leche Flan...
Hope: Gyah!! -pokes Andrea out with Arnis-
People beyond the Door-which-which-must-not-open-but still-constantly-does: LECHE FLAN!!!
Hope: GYAH!!! -waves a quick farewell, transfigures her sofa into a Leche Flan and tosses it into the room of Personalities.-
-immediate cheer of delight-
Hope: Signing out... didn't make sense... too many moods floating around... The Reading opened my Personality door...
Bye.

You represent... hope.
You're quite a daydreamer and can be a hopeless romantic. You enjoy being creative and don't mind being alone at times. You have goals, and know what you want in life... even if they are a little far fetched.
I have done one of my last big Readings and I am giving it to ate mel today. The Reading concerns that which we have talked about.
Other important but not urgent things:
Kampil meeting was successful even though I was slightly weirded out by this girl who asked me if I was ever happy or if I ever became hyper. (I can hear Fia guffawing loudly. Hell, I can hear EVERYONE I know guffawing loudly)
The Starbucks get-together was wonderful minus some odd thingies that I will not mention here.
KAORU!!! who came way late, (3 na po!) I mished you!!!!!!!
I had to leave early though coz of my rash. I had to go to MMC to see a doctor.
Sadnessity.
But I loved seeing everyone even if we had important and serious matters on hand and everyone was kinda tense.
Iyon. Then I had a dinner with family where I was treated like a brick. I do not exist to these people.... buti I have an online family that cares! *Belat to the Biological Family.*
Looking forward to today cos it's ate caren's bday party!!
But I have math reviews at 8 AM so it kinda sucks.
Plus it's the first Saturday since Nicolas left.
I am pathetic over this guy.
To borrow from ate mel, "Next, please!"
Iyon muna. Love to everyone.
I probably forgot to mention something.... oh well, tomorrow is another blogging day.

The Met Post.
The Met has the shoddiest security known to man.
The most protected room is the Gold and Pottery rooms downstairs.
Walkthrough:
Entrance - double door 2 ft. apart constructed with 1/2 inch thick non-bulletproof glass. One guard: old and ailing.
Way to 'high-security room':
stairs - no cameras, no pressure pads, no motion detectors
atrium before 'high security room' - one ailing guard, a simple 'break glass' alarm.
door to hallway bet. pottery and gold rooms - two door, seven feet tall, hollow 2 inch metal door with 1/2 inch thick glass panes. Combination lock only with easy-to-hear clicks.
The walls of the rooms - consist of one long inch thick glass wall and three cement walls each.
Motion Sensor - one per room, parallel to doorway.
Cameras - facing the cement wall parallel to the glass one. Thirty degree angle from ceiling. One 360 degree camera in the pottery room with only 270 degree vision due to a pillar and its proximity to the wall.
Camera room - carelessly open
Glass Cases - respond to strong pressure.
Pillars - hollow thin asbestos sheeting with a wooden frame, bad for gunfights.
Sprinklers - none in the high room but a few smoke detectors and two fire extinguishers.
Possible escape route - second floor, niche in the back that leads to downstairs back entrance.
Possible tools - lockpicks, stethoscope, lighter, plastic explosives, gun with silencer, handy-dandy convertible carrying case (preferrably knapsack type), a bit of tear gas bombs and hairspray.
Anyone willing?

Reasons to be happy:
I just talked to her on the phone and I am happy!!!
Kaoru-chan is back! (Imagine that people, Megumi missed Kaoru!)
-full details on this when Kaoru gives me license.
-This is V.V.V. important because the members we have now are much better than last year's.
Had a lovely field trip.
-Yes, for the first time our class had a fieldtrip. We went to the Met and to CCP to admire the art. (Impressionist, Expressionist, Abstract Expressionist....) The Met gets its own post later.
-YAOI and HENTAI. If interested give me a cup of coffee (comment)
Reasons to be less than happy:
I have a rash on my arm that would give Eloise Midgen (Harry Potter reference) a run for her Galleons.
-According to the doctor, I came in contact with something I'm allergic to. THough i don't recall bumping into any idiots today, so... hmmmm... I've got tablets and a topical cream for everyday.
I almost took my Economics teacher's head off.
-I fell asleep after taking the Long Test in Econ. My teacher ATTEMPTED to wake me up but it seems that I swung my arm up twice and nearly decapitated her. I only woke up when our class pres shouted in my ear, way after Miss left. (Deadly SIN alert: SLOTH.)
That's it for now. Hope choked on a razor blade in her coffee 10:44 AM

Today:
I spent my ever-so-interesting day doing two long tests. One was math and the other was Panitikan. The evilnessity of it all!!! They put my two worst subjects in one day!!!
Grargh. It’s not like I didn’t know the answers. I DID! But the Panitikan one wanted it phrased in a different way. In a way I had no idea how to use. Blech. Math was so-so. It went as well as can be expected.
The Angus Chronicles continues its circulation in my class. If I’m any lucky, I’ll get to read them before graduation. Okay lang iyon… it is my duty!!!
Daming exclamation points.
I ate dinner at the CSB hotel. Okay, I guess.
VA was spent watching ‘What Dreams May Come’. Luverly movie. Gotta love the Venice style library. (Venice- MARIUS!!!)
I am currently redoing ‘Nyssis’. The first one was really juvenile. Eww.
See! I am keeping my mind off him!!!
Sort of. BTW, thanks to Athena for that beautiful SMS re: Nicolas.
Officially not mentioning him for now. It is important that I get over this.
Okay, breathe.
I’m getting semi-obsessed with my ring. (Huge topic change) I want to use it!!! On whom?? Wala, eh.
I found out yesterday that…. Kaoru is COMING HOME on Thursday!!! And she is STAYING!!!
Yess!!
I hafta go na and research on Nuclear Reactors for Physics.
Bye.
P.S. ATHENA. YOU ARE A GOOD WRITER!!!!

Posting:
Fluffy easy-to-read stuff first:
I watched ‘Piglet’s Big Movie’ today. It was v.v.v. cute and I couldn’t help but squeal every so often. Shows you how much of a blind sentimental creature I am. I got freaked out by Carly Simon though when she/he appeared at the ending credits. She/he just looked FRE-A-KY.
I have a poison ring! It’s pwetty and siwlver awnd it’sh got a celtic design!! *squee*
*shudder* I am trying too hard to be genki. Might bruise something in the process.
Book Wagon called and they invited us to the Book Fair! Hurrah! I am indeed blessed to have the book fair coincide with my birthday.
Now on to the angsty teenager blithering:
Nicolas
-Gack. It’s been 12+ hours since he left and I’ve been angsting quietly. I didn’t sleep until 6:30 in the morning. I felt like I could hear his plane leave. Fool of a girl that I am. I have to get over this crush. But I miss him dammit. Theme song for him is: Things I’ll Never Say by Avril Lavigne. I think I scared Flip a bit by attempting to take the church apart.
Ate Mel
- Ate and I have been plenty worried about something and surprise! We have the same views on the matter. We are both wiped thinking about it and I would like to offer it to the Higher Powers.
My Voice Teacher
-Hey bloggers out there, please pray for my voice teacher’s mum. She has leukemia. Seriously.

Kapengmainit was born on September 7, 1986. This makes her a worrywart at the age of 16 due to her obsessive-compulsive Virgoan nature.
She spends her weekdays romping in St. Scholastica's College, Manila where she is in her fourth year of High School under the section Four - Integrity.
Plagued by insomnia at night, narcolepsy in the day and schizophrenia at all times, she is
Everywhere someone's getting over
Everybody cries and sometimes
You can still lose even if you really try
Talking 'bout the dream like the dream is over
Talk like that won't get you nowhere
Everybody's trusting in the heart
Like the heart don't die
(chorus)
But that's all that I need
Someone else to cling to
Someone I can lean on until
I don't need to
Just stay all through the night
And in the morning let me down
Cuz that's all that I need right now
Everywhere someone's getting over
Everybody's lied to someone
People still use other people
With a crooked smile
All around the world
There's a sinking feeling
Somewhere right now
Someone's really
Down on themselves
And don't know why
(chorus)
Life ain't no
Beauty show
We don't know where tomorrow ends
And when we're sad
It's kind of a drag
