Arch 10 bench scale model

I have finally finished making my "anti-beggar" bench scale model for Arch 10.

Last week, we were asked to sketch five different benches for three people to sit on. Guidelines stated that these benches should not be lie down-able (lol what Cai what are you saying). From my five benches, Sir Gozon picked the lightsaber (I'm such a geek, don't judge) because of its cylindrical concept. Instead of a lightsaber, I just made a super simple half-cylinder bench. 




I know the main point of this plate is supposed to be the chair, but I enjoyed making the lamp post even more. I used black paper (board), plastic, beads, ribbon, electrical tape, glue, and a balloon stick for this. 





I'm really enjoying Arki! Good choice for me. *wink*

D-Life

Last night, we had a welcoming party at the dorm for the freshmen and other new tenants. Here are some pictures. :)

Hello, freshies!


Ate Faith

They each got a copy of the Survival Guide for college prepared by the D-Tour team

Worst feelings

The only reason why I'm even blogging tonight is I don't want this blog to die, not even slowly. Either that, or I'm just really stressed out right now and that my life's a mess, a beautiful one, though. I don't really mind if you don't see how that conjunction managed to put together those two clauses of different poles, because neither do I. If there's one thing you should know about me and my lame-ass blogging skills, it's that I do everything spontaneously and I hardly go over it once I've finished typing everything. After all, this isn't something I have to submit to my English prof for caviling.

I'm going through this I-don't-know-what-to-feel phase right now because the past few days of mine have been quite an amateur-ballerina-twirl sort of mixed emotions and bipolarity. Though I may not be diagnosed to have such disorder, I consider it an affect, like every other whiny teenager does.

It took me a week to enroll for my first semester this academic year. If you're wondering why it took me so long, well, let me just make the motherfucking long story short: I was pre-advised at 5:30 pm on the last day of enrollment. Shiftees had to enroll on the last day, so I went to UP at around 8:00 in the morning. I waited 10 hours just for pre-advising. I lacked units, so much as I wanted to pay Monday after that week, I had no choice but to wait for everything. I took my chance begging profs to take me in their classes, and believe me when I say the best of luck isn't enough for an underload shiftee undergoing the wrath of UP's regular, not to mention: late, enrollment. Prof-hunting for me lasted two whole days - circling around Arki, CAL, and AS included - and I've never felt so desperate my whole life. I used to swear I'd never take Kasaysayan 1, but when the prof accepted me into his class, I almost cried - no exaggeration included. I was also really happy because I was able to get Badminton as a PE and I've been trying to take that class for three semesters already. Ma'am Cuerdo never accepts prerogs but she knew and remembered me from first sem as the girl who sat in her class, twice, desperate to get in. The only conditions are I shouldn't be absent and I have to play as a boy in the singles and doubles event. Of course, I didn't mind. In fact, I liked the idea. Although everything turned out to be great, I still am frustrated because I still have to go to Arki and get my Form 26A, then pay at the cashier (which moved to ISSI, btw) and get a new ID. Everything's stressing me out as of this moment. You know what else pissed me off tonight? I lost my black paper, and I really needed it for my first Arki assignment due on Wednesday. How the fucking hell do you even lose a bundle of black paper?

Aside from everything pulling my strings off and sewing my buttons back on, I feel overwhelmed with all my new Arki materials. They're all just lovely and I couldn't wait to use them all, but I get this tingly feeling in my stomach whenever my debit card gets scratched in National Bookstore. Everything's really expensive and I feel bad for my parents. Although I know they support me and they will always give me money for my Arki stuff, I can't stop feeling guilty about how much everything costs to the point that even if I use my allowance to buy something important and I don't have allowance left anymore, I don't withdraw and just starve myself for a day or something. I'm not used to this. Not just yet.

The things that are really, really getting on my nerves right now aren't things, but people. But okay, if you hate them too, then we can both call them things. I am such a bad person for publicizing my hatred towards these two idiots but please if you know them and if you're reading this, please tell them to stay the fuck away from me unless they want to get decapitated. Hate is such a strong word, they say, but I know hate when I feel it. And when I hate people, I let them know. Life is a lot easier that way. No need to be plastic. It's weird how I've always been this way, pushing people away from me, avoiding them and killing them in my dreams, and I've only noticed such behavior recently. You may think I'm a really bad person now, but this I tell you: I am not as expressive of my love as I am my hate. However, it doesn't mean I love less than I hate. If you aren't stupid, you should know what I mean, and I'm assuming you aren't (see, I'm nice too). Anyway, it's hard when the people you currently hate the most stay in the same dormitory as you. Just seeing them already ruins my day. The first one, I hate because he is the #1 most irritating person in the world. I have never felt so harassed by some shit of an idiot in my 17 years of oxygen intake. You can ask Page or Jiolo to explain this to you if you're really curious about it (in short, chismosa ka). I don't mind explaining it myself though, but I'm warning you: I'm an energy-drainer when it comes to talking about these matters in person. The second one, I've always hated. He used to trail me wherever I go, wherever I sit, wherever I stand, breathe, I don't know. It annoyed me, really. I don't know if it's pure coincidence that he also decided to stay in the same dorm as me, but I don't care. Why the hell does he keep on trying to talk to me? Haven't I made it obvious to you that I am not interested in talk, let alone saying hello? And next time, don't talk to my roommate about me because it just proves that half of your brain is empty even if you study in a good school. She's a girl, we're friends, get the logic? I want to stab your face with a knife. Oh, and the other one, too. My roommate teased him last week about crushing on me and he went "dati, pero tumaba na siya eh." Uhhh, did you really have to say that, mofo? Because to be honest, even if my weight is my biggest insecurity ever, I am fucking proud I got fat enough not to be the apple of your crap eye. Ang kapal ng mukha mo, punyeta ka. You think you're so gwapo but you look like shit. Not human shit, though, because it's too beautiful to be compared to a dickhead like you. I HATE YOU. AND THE OTHER ONE TOO. I FUCKING HATE YOU BOTH.

That's about it. I'm just glad that I have my blog to rant my feelings to when all my friends are asleep.
It's been a long day, a long week, even. I sense a long year ahead of me, of us all.

Let's get through this.

Things to be happy about right now :)

I'm sorry if you clicked the link for inspiration, it isn't your fault you were misguided, but then again it's my blog, so I can do - and say - whatever I want to! MUAHAHAHA. I was about to say "kidding" but then you all know I'm not, so it just spoils everything. Besides, I've overused that word already.

Anywho, here's a list of things I am not only happy about, but grateful, too. These are all I could think of for now, but I'm pretty sure there's a lot more at the back of my head. :)


  • My nails are salmon pink and I painted them myself. I mastered painting my right hand, now it's time to get a doctorate degree.
  • Enrollment's tomorrow, and I'm excited to get this over with.
  • I bumped into Hanna and Zyra earlier after I did the groceries. It was lovely seeing both of them after such a long time.
  • My hair. I like my dip-dyed hair.
  • Chinnie and I are chatting right now. 
  • I lost 5 kilograms since Boracay.

.........wait I'm sorry I can't continue this post some girl from my driving school just ruined my day thank you very much

Five ways to win my heart

Hi, I'm doing a 30-day challenge because I don't know what to blog about anymore. Anyway, don't get shocked when you see me posting more than a blog a day regarding this matter. You know me. ;)

For Day 1, I should talk about five ways to win my heart. It's so awkward for me to talk about this, but it's a challenge, so okay then. Wow, I think I have to reflect on this before I start answering. *long pause*


  1. Do not be/act awkward around me. I already am awkward alone, so don't add to that. Awkward moments, for me, are worse than embarrassing ones. 
  2. Be a gentleman. I don't have to explain this.
  3. Be the one to strike up conversations first. Always. Like I said, I'm sort of awkward and I don't really talk to people first unless they're my close friends. I have this weird introverted side of me...
  4. Do not try too hard. I don't like it when a guy shows off for attention, or when a guy goes out of his league and wear someone else's shoes just to win a girl's heart. Be yourselves, deluded morons. 
  5. Share common interests(?) I don't know how to put it. I know this isn't something someone can "do", but I think I like guys who share the same interests as I do. I mean, I don't like anyone right now (except for Jeremy Sumpter, perhaps) but what if I meet someone who can paint, plays badminton and is a fan of Star Wars...or something like that? *ovaries explode*
Hehehe, awkward post is awkward!
Forever alone girl feels more alone!

Must fight boredom before it swallows what's left of me.











Enrollment's not until tomorrow and I have absolutely nothing to do today, except for my driving lessons at 4 this afternoon.

Enrollment. School. BS Architecture. New friends. New insights. New path. New life.

Ahh, I like the smell of it.

Hi, dip-dye!











Just making use of my freedom and right to express. *insert heart here*

I have really weird hair, especially in pictures. This is going to be such a vain post.

I have black hair when I use low-quality webcams...


Red, when using flash...


And gold under direct sunlight.


I have really thin hair. My hair is naturally brown and curly because both my parents have brown and curly - well a little wavy for my mom, at least - hair, but sometimes when I look really close, my hair is of different colors. Most strands are brown, few are black (and thick), and some are gold and copper. Some are even...reddish. Is it natural to have hair like this or should I consult an expert on alien abduction and being under extra-terrestrial observation and experimentation?

Anyway, I really want to dye my hair this semester and I'm hoping I could go for dip-dye or ombre (refer to picture below). My hair is of this length. What do you think? :)

Random photos from my Downloads folder

How come I always miss out on the random part when being asked to describe myself? 
I. am. so. WEIRD. Weird is good. Mmmmmm "deliciososo!" (Julia Morente, 2011)

Got this picture from my Tita's timeline cover on Facebook. Interesting.

Uploaded this on 9gag the other day.

Me and my loves being casual.

Was supposed to change my banner to this but it wouldn't fit. </3

The schedule I made for a friend

Posted this on Facebook and Twitter for people who kept on tweeting "May the Fourth be with you" without knowing a shit about what it really meant.

What I want for my birthday! *cough cough nudge*

CUTE. Just...cute.

Had to look for "Hakuna Matata" images to print for Kristi. You want to know what's written under her name in our yearbook? Take a guess.
