Yesterday was the birthday celebration of one of my friends in highschool. She's 18 years old already... I'm soo happy kasi lahat kami sa barkada is lady na. And as usual, ako yung pinakamatanda, 19 yrs old na kasi ako eh. Well, AGE is JUST a number. It doesn't fully defines who you are..or what you are.

I enjoyed yesterday..kasi for the first time complete ulit kami. Hindi ko na maremember yung last time na kumpleto kami..siguro nung graduation day pa...that's why yesterday is one of the most important events that I've had. It brings back the memories of my highschool days.

Yesterday din dala ko yung MP3 player ko and pinarining ko sa mga friends ko yung song na currently uploaded dito sa blogspot ko. I was surprised na gusto din nila yung song.. they all love the beat and how the music goes even though they can't understand the lyrics. After all, the music is really good naman. I've influenced them..haha.. I'm such a great influencer! (If there's such a word..)

So, April is going away so fast..and May is fast approaching. Excited na nga akong mag-May eh kasi I know there's a lot of goodie things and happenings in store for me. I just can't wait. Pero syempre, I still didn't forget that I should treasure every single tick of the clock in my life..so the remaining 3 days for April will still be treasured.. (.^__^.)

Todays is the finals match at the ATP tournament for tennis and the match will be up for Roger Federer against Rafael Nadal. I just couldn't afford to not watching it because it's such a great match-up. Yung last time na nagmeet yata sila sa Finals is noong August pa sa Wimbledon, so this game will be pretty exciting. Oh, I hope Roger will win. But if he doesn't, I understand because the tournament's surface is clay..and Nadal is still the undisputed King of Clay..so let's just see.

***********************************************************
I'm glad that David Archuleta is still not voted out for American Idol season 7. I hope he can make it to the top 3. If I can only just vote...hmmmmm... but how can I vote? I'm not a U.S resident..haaay! I'm just going to watch him nalang in Star World ch. 48. I've got a feeling that boys will dominate this season... The 2 David's (David Archuleta and David Cook) and Jason Castro. It seems like the fans are really working hard for their chosen idols.
David is soo cute and Adorable. (.^__^.)

Kawaii!

ATP Tour - Federer triumphs in Estoril

Eurosport - Sun, 20 Apr 18:51:00 2008
World number one Roger Federer won his first title of the season at the Estoril Open after Russia's Nikolay Davydenko retired with a leg injury.

The Swiss top seed saved a set point before winning the opener 7-6 and was 2-1 down in the second when number two seed Davydenko announced his decision to retire.

"This is not the way you want to win a tournament but that's the way it goes sometimes," said Federer, who recently hired clay court expert Jose Higueras to help him recover from the worst start to a season since 2000.

"It's great to win a title again in my first clay court tournament this season and it gives me great confidence for the Monte Carlo Open."

The 12-time Grand Slam winner has a perfect 10-0 record against Davydenko.

"I'm sorry about what happened today," the 2003 champion Davydenko told a packed stadium in centre court at the Estoril Open. "You know, I have some leg injury and I can't finish the match.

"Sorry guys."

He later said that he planned to play in the prestigious Monte Carlo Masters Series next week.

Federer said he had fully recovered from a stomach virus and mononucleosis earlier this season and that the matches at Estoril had enabled him to fine-tune his game before the French Open, the only grand slam tournament that has eluded him so far him.

"My movement from the baseline could always be better but getting to those drop shots really showed me this week that I'm again in good health," said Federer.

"I haven't had any fallbacks or anything which is a good thing. I feel great again."

Asked if it was a relief to have finally won a tournament this season, Federer replied: "Not really, some might think it's a great breakthrough. I don't see it that way. I look at the big picture.

"The big matches are coming up, the French Open the US Open where it really kind of matters very, very much. If I lose there I'm disappointed, if I win there I'm going to be delighted.

"This is a great start to the clay court season."

KAWAII!

Breath-taking

The most perfect word for this picture. I'll also consider the words

HEAVENLY and GORGEOUS

Oh, I miss Roger Federer
I almost forgot him because of Hana Kimi and Wu Chun.
My Mom even told me that I've got a new Apple of My Eyes...ow, true enough!
I just told her.. "Well, pana-panahon lang yan.."
hahaha.. just kidding! Of course, I love them both!
Plus..David Archuleta from American Idol Season 7. He's soo adorable. I'll have one post about him next time.

Speaking of Roger Federer, he won in ESTORIL OPEN 2008 just today.
After 5 months of a title drought.. It's about time he got finally one for himself.
I'll just post about the game tomorrow.
As for now, just savor this very good-looking / dramatic shot.
Thanks to Paulo Calado (hahaha..feeling close?!)

I just can resist including something about Wu Chun in here.
Sorry Roger! (hahaha)
I've found out Wu Chun's blog in his Wikipedia..and I know it's his true blog. As for the looks of it, I think it's not a joke.
And he's got something about the Philippines. Alam na niya na big hit na yung Hana Kimi dito and he's been persuading his managers / producers to come here together with his band (Fahrenheit)..yun nga lang he is not yet that successful. Wala naman daw silang promotional activities here.

Huh??! meron kaya... promote nila yung band nila. Sisikat din yun...parang F4.
They've got a lot of fans already. I've seen it for myself sa mga forums.
It's like a Fever.. or should I say a virus- - - spreads so easily.

Anyway, here's the link for his blog:
WU CHUN's BLOG (BRIAN OF HANA KIMI)
The "()" is for those who doesn't know who is Wu Chun.

And here's the link for blog post he had which talks about the fans from the Philippines. It's a bit short actually, pero at least meron.
HANA KIMI IN THE PHILIPPINES

Plus there's a lot more goody stuffs in his blog. Yummy pictures and cool blog posts. I wonder how can he be able to update his blog despite his busy schedule?

Well, as what the saying goes.. good girls keep diaries..
So it applies too.. good BOYS keep diaries.

Kawaii!

Understood - Tank (music video)

This is the music video of Understood by Tank. It’s original Chinese name is “Dong Le” which is an OST for the TV series Hana Kimi.. to which I’m a fan.

The reason why I posted it here in my precious blog is because I really want this song. Okay… think that I’m weird or eerie or whatever but this song honestly gives me the chills whenever I hear it. I feel soo in love all of a sudden.

If there’s only an English or Tagalog song with the similar beat or lyrics to this.. I’ll almost certainly (or surely) love it and will ever try my best to put the song on MYX hit chart top 10. Unfortunately, I haven’t heard such tune like this.

I’m really happy that I was able to find an English translation for its mandarin lyrics. I found it on one blogger too! (Thanks!) The words and its meaning are really lovely.

Unfortunately, (or luckily??) I have a friend who also wants its mandarin translation. For the sake of my friend, I’m going to post it. I think she’ll make my site a karaoke blog..haha! Just hope you’ll enjoy (and the others as well). Yeah, right.. go on sing!!

BUT I’M NOT FORCING YOU..OK? (.^__^.)
Better look out for the pronunciations..hehe!
I’m a bit of an expert already.

UNDERSTOOD – TANK

Don’t waste your strength, doing the same things over and over

I just need to talk to you softly with my eyes and fingertips

Your face won’t make any other gesture

When you turn your face and smile whenever you leave

It’s fairly easy to solve my riddle.

If this can’t be considerable subtle, at least it shows how clever we are

Don’t need to ask the reason why

Don’t need to say anything else

We look at each other and it’s understood. We’re falling in love.

Don’t need to ask why

Don’t need to be afraid

When tired we sleep holding hands towards our dreaming.

It’s hard to foretell how the weather’s gonna be

All hope has been lost

Each time the rainbow goes out I tell you I love you.

You’re surely a very intuitive girl

And know about this thing of mine

So whenever it rains, you won’t go back home.

If this can’t be considerable subtle, at least it shows how clever we are

Don’t need to ask the reason why

Don’t need to say anything else

We look at each other and it’s understood. We’re falling in love.

Don’t need to ask why

Don’t need to be afraid

When tired we sleep holding hands towards our dreaming.

HANA KIMI FAN!

Have you heard of ABS-CBN’s latest chinovela hit in town? Well, of course those who resides here in Philippines will definitely know it.

I really love Hana Kimi.. I super love it.

On what basis do I love it? Okei.. just look at these factors: Cute, romantic story plus lovely characters plus handsome male actors = Super kilig story. After Metoer Garden, eto na siguro yung sumunod na magandang chinovela na napanood ko ever. Syempre magkaiba naman yung Korea nobela and chinobela eh. Ang gwapo lang naman kasi talaga ni Brian (lead actor) tapos ang cute pa ni Joey (lead actress) kaya nahook talaga ako sa TV series na to. Actually, nakabili na nga ako ng DVD niya para may mapanood akong maganda this summer. As of this moment, naunahan ko na yung ABS-CBN doon sa pinapalabas nila na episode sa Hana Kimi. All in all 15 episodes siya.. I’m at the 8^th episode na. Enjoy na enjoy talaga ako pag pinapanood ko siya.. nakakarelate ako. Hehe!

Actually, yung mga bidang characters dun are both singers sa Taiwan. The girl happens to be a band member named S.H.E where the letter E in the band’s name corresponds to her real name Ella. And then yung 2 boys na sikat naman happens to be a band member named Fahrenheit. Si Wu Chun and Jiro Wang. Waaaahh! Medyo alam ko na nga yung ibang facts about them.. kasi nga naging fan na ako.

And then, madami na din akong nahanap na video nila sa you tube. Mga songs and music videos na kahit in Chinese eh pinapakinggan ko pa rin. Buti nalang merong iba na mga English subtitle yung video kaya naiintindihan ko na rin kahit papano. Maganda kasi yung beat and lyrics nung song. I remember tuloy nung may Metero Garden and F4 fever dito sa Manila..ganito din ako nun. Hahaha! Pati concert nila napanood ko pa.

History repeats itself.

Ewan ko lang kung ganon din kahit sila compared sa F4 and kay Barbie Hsu.
Regarding dun sa mga youtube videos, I was able to find out a way kung pano madownload sila to my computer. It’s really great and really cool! Now, I can check-out my favourite videos every now and then kasi nga it’s easily uploaded to my PC. What a great discovery.

Anyway, here are some of the videos from you tube. If you like to check it out, much okei!
The first is the theme song from Hana Kimi (What should I Do), it has English translations on it. And then the other one is the interview from one Taiwanese Channel… it doesn’t have any English translation..(so sad).

SING, SING, SING!

For those who haven’t seen this TV series yet.. The story goes like this:

After watching a high jump competition, Lu Ru Xi (Joey) was so inspired by a jumper named Zuo Yi Quan (Brian) that she decides to transfer to his school, which happens to be an all-boys school; therefore, she disguises herself as a boy to get accepted. At the school, Ru Xi befriends Jin Xiu Yi (Wesley). One day during a friendly soccer match, Rui Xi is knocked unconscious by Xiu Yi.

Quan carried her to the infirmary and realizes that Rui Xi is in fact a girl!

However, Quan keeps her indentity a secret. At the same time, Xiu Yi starts to question his own sexual orientation when he finds himself having feelings towards Rui Xi.

Why do things have to change while others don’t?

As what some people say: Only the good girls keep diaries…because they have the time. Time to scribble down all the things they have in mind, their ideas, their happenings, their opinions…EVERYTHING.

As for our modern world, scribbling down is not the hip thing anymore. More people prefer typing (just like me) that’s why blogs were developed. As for me, I’m not that familiar with blogs…not since 1^st year college. One close friend introduced it to me..and since then (I think it was November) I started blogging. Typing down every bits of experience I have experienced. Name it…be it a super kilig one or a disappointment. And take note, I wasn’t contented with blogspot..I have my friendster blog and my multiply account. That’s how high-tech we are right now. But I share more in here…I feel more privacy. Just like a written diary. (I hope!)

Why am I saying all these stuffs here? Well, it’s because I just read 2 nights ago my diary when I was 15 years old. Yup! 4 years ago..I have this cute diary where I kept all my secrets..and I tell you, they’re deep ones. Well, after reading it, it gave me a hearty laugh. Some words are in wrong grammars (which is just normal, because upto now..I have my own errors. Oh, forgive me!) and then I have these secrets..secrets that were still secrets upto now. To tell you honestly, I was a bit saddened.

Why saddened? Because I felt like I wasn’t able to move on with THAT. Way back..it’s noted that I have that je ne sais quo (indescribable feeling) for 4 years. As for the present, that diary is 4 years ago..so it means that I have that stupid feeling for around 8 years now. I prefer to call it stupid..because of the fact that I wasn’t able to move on. It keeps hunting me… that made me miserable. Why am I like this? I want to wake-up..
but it appears that I’m enjoying with this small fantasy of mine.

I don’t really believe that First Love Never Dies. I force myself not to. But I guess, it’s hard to fool oneself. I succeed at times, but then again, I’ll realize that I will fail - - over and over again. I say something like “I promise, I won’t think of him…I’ll think of other things..I’ll stop this nonsense” The next day, I’m on my same routine.

One of my friend told me that why is LIFE so unfair. You keep on thinking about one person, and yet you don’t have the assurance that that same person is thinking of you as well. Thinking is really hard..especially when it’s the same memory, same instance, same person. There’s no something new..except of course when you imagine new stuffs..but it’s still hard. It makes your head hurt. If brains can only act, it might slap me already for thinking same thoughts everyday. Silly me! (.^__^.)

I told my friend na lang that ,maybe, it’s a good idea if a boy and a girl can swap worlds for a day. Maybe all our questions can be answered…

While reading my diary last time, I really wanted to have my little drama..you know, a bit of a crying mode. First, I wanna cry because I’m a good girl. Being proud that I was able keep a diary where I can be able to look back with all the things that had happened to me and be able to have one upto now. Second, to weep about the fact that something remains the same for 8 years. Yes.. whopping 8 years. I kept it as a secret..no single breathing human person knows about the truth except me. Well, my Mom knows partly about it, my friends know about it but they only know the half truth. It’s not bad to keep a secret only for myself, isn’t it? That won’t harm anyone…only oneself. It’s a matter of choice..and it’s my choice.

After reading it, I asked myself “What if that person knows about this? Will he be happy? Happy that someone had this kind of affection for him? Or sad because I’m having a hard time forgetting things. If he’s gonna be angry..much better. That may end up all of these, but how can I know? I just stayed as his online pal…ONLY!I just can’t ask him and share all my dilemmas and expect an answerto be flashed on screen..

I might as well not expect anything from any person…
I must release all these negativity inside of me.
I must believe in myself that I can stand-up for myself..I must learn how to be independent..as soon as possible.
I must not be that emotionally attached to any other person except for my parents and close friends (that will really be hard)
I must start forgiving and forgetting. (I think I have talked about this last January..upto now I can’t do it.)
I must look at the brighter side of life.
I must stop the things that keeps on hunting me. Start a new life..

I’m just thankful for all those persons that’s always ready to share some advice whenever I’m asking one. Be it a joke or a serious one..I’m still thankful.

In spite all of these… I know I’ll be fine.

Funny, stupid me! :p
I just found out last night that Sony Ericsson Open which is held at Miami Florida is televised at Star Sports channel. Why didn't I checked it anyways??! The sad part is that it is televised during the wee hours in the morning.
If ever I can, I will upload some video gif's in here. They're really cool..trust me!

By the way, I'm currently watching PBB Teen Edition Plus and Big Brother made good choices in choosing his teen housemates now. Compared to last season..I so much love this season! My personal favorite is Robi. Well, he's a True Blue Atenista. He's cute..that's why I love him. I want him to win or maybe be part of the big 4.
I remember...Mikee Lee is an Atenean too from the last teen edition season.
Anyway, there's from La Salle too and there's from FEU pa... why is it there's no one coming from UST...Thomasians?! Oh, never mind.. it's okei!

One of my friends told me that someone told her that girls from UST are considered as
S.M.A.R.T.E - - - > oh! Okei.. Smart na Maarte.. that's cool! :p

Anyway, here's Robi.


He just graduated from higschool... just an incoming college freshman, i suppose.
Just watch PBB this summer. You'll love and enjoy it.
