Day 3: Fashion before comfort (San Francisco)

April 29,2013

I woke up having an uncomfortable feeling. I stood up and went straight to the comfort room. I was the only one awake. I went back to sleep. I felt my brother tapping my shoulder and saying he wants to help in the kitchen, and he wanted me to come with. I gave him a morning punch and got up. I just grabbed my laptop and did my thing.

Mylene and Marynhelle weren't here because they had classes. We had to wait for my aunt, uncle and grandma. While waiting, I was chatting with my friends back home. I checked my facebook and instagram, a lot of people liked my ootd! It was actually surprising. I was hoping that it would always be that way.

I went downstairs to have a shower. I grabbed my brother's Star Wars sweater, a white skirt, Char's tights, and a beanie that Cielo lent me.

They arrived and we started to go. We had plans to go to the Golden Gate Bridge today. So we went downtown. It's our second time being there. First, we stopped by the famous Crooked Road. It was weird, when we stepped out of the van, it was hot! I shouted "ANG INIT!" mum told me I should just get the sweater off, unfortunately, I wasn't wearing anything under but a bra, so all I said was "fashion before comfort"

Then we went somewhere that has awesome architecture! It was brilliant! 

I posed at one pole and had my ootd shot for today. 

After that, we finally went to the Golden Gate Bridge. It was hilarious. Dean always had a fear of heights, and this time he had a vertigo attack. He was holding on my hand so tightly. It was just win. =)) 

Mum was hungry all of a sudden. She suggested In n Out Burger. But Dean and I wanted clam chowder, well mostly me. But then she said that we could just have clam chowder tomorrow. So we went in In n Out, I ordered a cheese burger meal. But then daddy was leaving to buy our grandma some clam chowder, I went with him and got my own. Clam chowder never disappoints. The thing is, I already ordered my burger, and I had to finish that as well. I ate half of the burger, and gave it to Dean. I drank all the soup, and gave the bread to my mum. It wasn't that bad.. The buger was incredibly delicious!

We then went to downtown to have some quick shopping. We had a deadline since our grandma can't miss her plane to L.A. We went to Pier 39. There was a store that was filled with authentic stuff that has signs on them! I saw a guitar with all 1D members signed. And I saw a record where Greenday signed it! And lots more! We then went to a hat store. It was awesome! It was filled with hats! Even weird hats! I saw a Sorting Hat, Cat in the Hat's hat, a Slytherin beanie (which I wanted so bad) and lastly a hat from The Great and Powerful Oz (a replica of what Mila Kunis wore)

We then went back to the house. My skirt was a bit annoying, so I made a quick change. 

We went to the airport to accompany my grandma. After that, we got dropped of to a random mall. Tito Lindo will be picking us up at 8. We went to Marshalls first. There weren't anything that I wanted really. Then we went inside the mall. And of course, there was Zumiez and Hot Topic. They're seriously haunting me! It sucks, I keep on telling my folks that I want a penny board, but they keep on saying no. It's annoying. So I just let them in Hot Topic and I showed them the Fall Out Boy tee that I wanted, and as usual, they said no. But dad said he might find something the same, but cheaper. The problem is, I want those things now. Yes, I sound like a complete brat. But earlier today, my parents bought Dean a Jimi Hendrix hat for about 40 bucks! That's proof that they aren't poor at all! they're just cheap. Hell of cheap! Yes,  I love them. but sometimes, I seriously want them to not be cheap. 

We went back home. Mylene, Dean and I had a Warhead challenge. Oh God, that candy burnt my tongue! While listening to FOB, Mylene told me that she saw a bunch of FOB albums that were on sale on best buy. It sucks because I have no idea if we are going back to Best Buy. Oh well.

Day 2: Mall day (San Francisco)

April 28, 2013

I woke up with mum by my side. She's a heavy sleeper. Dad was no where to be found and Dean was using hi s laptop. I went to the comfort room. When I got out, I heard Mylene's voice upstairs. I was expecting breakfast was ready. I went up and saw my dad cooking spam. We ate. We were chill this morning. I went upstairs with Mylene and Marynhelle. We went to their room. I just used my laptop ad did some homework in hexrpg. Hexrpg is an online game. You can experience being a real Hogwarts student. Anyway, Tita Roselyn suddenly called through facetime saying we would be going to church. I took a bath then put some clothes on.

We went to church. I was surprised that it was a Filipino church. It was filled with Filipinos and Asians. Their songs were from the Philippines. It was amazing. I didn't know how our race were so united.

We then went to the mall. Tita Roselyn wanted me to get something from Forever 21, but I can't find anything that I really want. So instead she bought me a snapback. It's really cute. It fits me wel.. But I do hate the fact that my dad calls me a jejemon. But I am sure as hell that I don't look like one. I spent the day mostly with Mylene and Dean. Marynhelle and Rozella were just talking about clothes and boys. But I still pent time with them. It was really fun. After that, we went to another mall. In every mall there is Hot Topic and Zumiez. Everytime I pass those stores I feel sad. Zumiez has the penny board that I want, and Hot Topic has everything that I want! Hot Topic had a Fall Out Boy merch that I really want! But it's really pricey. It crushed me when my parents told me that I can't get a penny board because of the price. I thought it wasn;t fair because they buy Dean guitars. He already has lots. We can't I have the cherry on top of the cake once in a while? Dad said he'd find one in Hawaii, but it's not the same. What if he gets a crappy one? There's a big difference. Is it bad to have a thing for boards? I was really upset. But for the mean time, I set it aside and just enjoyed the ride. We went to Target. I didn't see much stuff that I would like.

(but I do like the Eiffel Tower clock)

Milk teas are all the craze in the Philippines, so I wondered if we could go to a tea place. The first plan was we were going to a tea place called "Tea Pumps", but then it was too far, so we went to Quickly instead. I never thought Quickly would be different. It has lots of choices to choose from. And there's a chubby size of your tea. Plus, they sell tea, coffee, food, etc. Unlike back home, they only sell slushes. 

We went to a relative's house. Seriously, there are too many relatives here. I can't really remember their names, and I'm pretty sure that when I went in, "Who's this girl"? is on their minds.

My cousins, Dean and I had lots of fun. We just hanged. 

We also played dots in a big white board. :))

That's all I guess. :)

Day 1: Itadakimasu! (San Francisco)

April 27, 2013 (Patrick's birthday!)

I woke up with the sound of my brother in the bathroom. I waited for him to come out. I expected that he would come out because he just peed. After 10 minutes or so, he came out with a foul smell accompanying him. I asked him what he did. Well, it was obvious. I wanted to use the bathroom, but I can't because of the smell. I was ranting but at the same time laughing because of my brother. I just went for it.

I grabbed my laptop and I had a video chat with Ate Cha cha. Apparently she is with my cousins back home. I also chatted with my friends, like Mj, Char, Dionico, Angelica and Cielo. 

I went upstairs to wait for breakfast. 

We had tocino and eggs for breakfast. Mylene and Marynhelle wanted me to break my diet because they thought it was ridiculous. I can't afford on eating rice. I just can't. 

I took a bath and grabbed the clothes Char lent me. 

We had a trip to a really high mountain where you can see a wonderful view of the city. It was marvelous! And I saw a lot of GGs!! A.k.a. 'gwapo guys' (handsome guys) 

                  

We had fun with the view. 

Along the way, we saw this awesome street artist that sells his work and shows how he does it. All he uses is spray paint and a bunch of carving materials. 

We went to a mall afterwards to meet up with our other relatives. It was great. We bought stuff from H&M. I went in Zumiez... Oh God... I wanted everything there! From Vans to boards. I finally got my hands on a penny board, the problem is, it was $79 and dad wouldn't buy anything that's not on sale. It was heart breaking for me. We also went to Hot Topic, I wanted to find the Fall Out Boy merch, but I couldn't find it. I saw a One Direction one instead. But still didn't buy it, it wasn't on sale. 

Then we had an awesome dinner. We went to our uncle's house and he had his own cooking thingy where the Japanese do their stuff. It was delicious! And yes, my cousins were happy because I break my diet. I ate rice. It was worth it though. But I will lessen my eating. I swear it. 

I guess that's all for today. :)

Prepare for take off!

____________________________________________________________-

As I woke up, I was pumped up. Though I knew it was still about 9 hours more to get ready for our flight, I was still psyched. I've never been excited to go to America like this. "Few more hours, I'll be boarding a plane to San Francisco." I thought. 

I did my nails. I made a galaxy nail art on it. It was awesome. Mum wanted my hair to be trimmed so that the split ends would disappear. We went to the parlor and had my hair trimmed. It was boring. I couldn't wait. Of course, I still watched Glee. I knew it was Friday, and Friday is Glee day. I'm not much of a fan, but I love seeing how the story goes. 

We made double checks with our stuff. We hopped in the car and left. I couldn't contain my excitement. 

But then mum asked if we had our tooth brushes. We could not believe we left our tooth brushes at home. It was hilarious. 

We went arrived at the airport. 

I wore a turtleneck from Zara and skinny jeans from Uniqlo. And black combat boots to go wit it.  I clipped my Barricade girl pin on my turtleneck. 

We got really bored when we were in the airport. 

We walked around, used our laptops, and ate some Cheetos to get rid of the boredom. I'm the kind of person who hates waiting. I'm very impatient. Charlyn, Cielo, and Dionico gave me company through texting though. They're just awesome. But then I still got bored and I actually found myself lying on the bleachers.  

Our flight was finally called. There were a lot of other people in this flight. It seemed like a mosh pit. It was funny, because dad knows his way on how just slip in. I was hella excited. 

The flight wasn't that bad. I was looking forward to watching Les Miserables. However I ended up watching two movies that I've always wanted to watch but never got the chance to: Wreck-it-Ralph and Flipped. I enjoyed watching those movies. 

When it was time to go to bed, I wasn't able to. I couldn't sleep at all. All I did was I got Char's Divergent and read it. I finished it. It was an awesome book, seriously. I can't get over it. 

After I read, I just put on my earphones and just listen to my tunes. 

Finally, we landed. It was freezing cold. I only had my turtleneck. I had no other sweaters with me at that time. It was awesome. 

(Sorry for the picture, I didn't know it wasn't allowed to take pictures)

Then we had a family reunion and I messed up my diet big time. 

And it's like 3 in the morning right now. I have to sleep. Nightyy everyone. :)

________________________________________________

Three days ago I spent my time with my friends. You see, today is the day I leave for a vacation. Now I"m panicking because everyone's in a hurry to get ready. 

April 23, 2013

This day I went to Charlie's house. I rand the door bell and she opened the door. She was wearing a blue v-neck shirt and jeans. She just arrived from her future college, Assumption. Assumption has this summer class thing and everyone thinks Charlie's some kind of genius. I'm actually proud of her. All we did was just searched for malls and shops that I can go when I'm in Florida. It was fun hanging out. I will surely miss her text messages. 

April 24, 2013

This day my closest friends from my class last year went for a visit. Angelica, Cielo, Venny, Des and I had a movie marathon. First, we watched Legend of the Guardians, and obviousy Angelica was fangirling over Jack Frost.  We noticed that Sandy was Cielo's favorite, since Sandy's cute and little and fat. We had fun, had stories to tell, and KFC to eat. We obviously goofed around. 

When they left, Cielo and I had a viber fashion conversation. She helped me on what to match for my trip. It was fun. She had lots of tips! 

April 25, 2013

 I went to Seton to finish my requirements for SFU. Sadly, the teachers weren't around. I was planning to meet Dionico here, but he was a no show. My dad wanted to watch Ironman so bad, so we did. It was epic! After that, I had to go to Cielo's too pick up a pair of shorts that she would lend me for the trip. As my brother and I walked to the car, I bumped into Bettina! It was so awesome seeing her. She's just one of my most awesome friends. 

These people are the ones I'm gonna miss the most. The people who gives concern, the people who would do anything just to see me before I leave. I love them. Though I will indeed miss more than these people right here. I'm just saying that I love my friends, and I can never ask for better. I love my SDN friends, Magui friends, and others. I love how they make me feel wanted and special.

And now I'm here trying to think of what else to type. And now I gotta go. :) Will be on a plane off to San Francisco! Will be posting every single detail within the trip. I will surely miss everyone! See you in three weeks!

CN Blue, saranghae!

I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday

-Just One Yesterday by Fall Out Boy ft. Foxes

___________________________________________________

I heard the alarm coming out of my brother's phone. I went back to sleep and waited for my alarm to go. After minutes, my alarm went off. Trying to open my eyes, I groaned. I was still sleepy as hell. My brother, Dean woke me up by carrying me like a sack of potatoes. We both had breakfast. Afterwards, I went to the shower and took a bath. Today was the day when I get to pay for my uniform in SFU. I took my Jack Daniels muscle tee and a maxi skirt that my granda from LA gave me. I also matched it with my bowler hat, and a pair of brown boots to come with it.

I hopped in Dean's car and we left at about eight and a quarter in the morning. We arrived at SFU at 8:20 am. We asked the guard regarding the uniform fitting. He told us to go up to the second floor. We used the stairs and just came in the information's office. We asked again about the uniform fitting and the information person told us we were too early.

We had to go to SFU early because I had somewhere to go to. I was supposed to go to a CN Blue album launch in Megamall. Yes, CN Blue. CN Blue is a Korean pop band that is loved by millions of fans, which I am not. I was just supposed to chaperon my two great friends, Raine and Rovey. They are my only friends that are addicted to Kpop. Since I had nothing to do for the day and Raine invited me, why not? I think Raine invited me because she knows I kinda like Min Hyuk, the drummer. 

The information person told us to have a seat and wait. We waited for about an hour. I could imagine how Rovey and Raine were freaking out because they wanted to be part of the first 100 to get a free CN Blue tumbler. I was panicking when Raine started to call me. Good thing I was almost done. I hate fittings. It makes me sweat all the time. Nonetheless, I had my uniform. 

Dean and I hurried. We had about 10 mins travel time from SFU to the 7-eleven near Seton. He dropped me off and I went inside As I stepped inside 7 eleven, I saw Rovey and Raine being all girly. They had make-up on and every thing. Raine wore a cute top with a brown skort. I saw Rovey with her usual three-fourths attire with an artwork shirt and a pair of shorts. 

I asked them how on earth are we going to Megamall. Raine said we have to commute since her sister was still asleep. We hopped in a trike and arrived in Casimiro. We took a bus to go that will drop us down in Coastal and took another bus that will drop us in Megamall. We talked about a bunch of stuff while we were commuting. Surprisingly, we feel the same shit with the same people. 

We arrived Megamall and went inside an elevator. Raine and Rovey were load. They were asking themselves if they know which floor was the event in. Raine said it was near the cinemas. A lady behind us told us that the cinema was on the third floor. We went outside and asked the guard where was Odyssey. He told us it was in the ground floor, we ran to the escalators and just rushed to Odyssey. We went in and there was a poster of CN Blue in the front. They ran and got the album and went to the cashier. Good thing they were still one of the first 100 to get the free tumbler. We walked away and Raine pointed an album. It was Save Rock and Roll! I screamed! I immediately bought it. It sucks that the malls near us don't have it yet. But obviously God wanted me to be happy. 

We went out for lunch. The worst lunch I ever had! We went in to a Japanese restaurant that had few people. We ordered ramen and it sucks! It was too salty beyond compare! Rovey was making us hurry because she said the games will start at noon. We finished our lunch and went back to Odyssey. 

As we went back, we saw the CN Blue poster having new company beside it. There was a huge Chicser cut out. For the people who doesn't know what Chicser is, Chicser is a Filipino boyband that seems to copy One Direction a lot. Obviously I hate Chicsers, and so does Raine and Rovey. 

We went to the space where the games will be. We saw the give-away posters for the raffle. Raine and Rovey screamed on the top of their lungs. They had a picture spree with the posters. For the heck of it, I also had a picture with the Min Hyuk poster. 

A lady went by to talk to us, (Raine and Rovey) and they fangirled all the way. It was hilarious. And Rovey's social skills really improved. She now knows how to talk to people! 

Before the game started, we had this video greeting to do to welcome CN Blue in the Philippines. I wanted to get out of the scene, but I just sat and went with the flow. I was part of the video. It was extremely awkward for me. Every one did hand gestures when they were talking, and I was just sitting still. But it was fun. 

The game didn't start after an hour. The game was cup stacking. I thought I had it in the bag since I used to cup stack. But then I saw the cups... It was regular cups. It was hard to remove them one by one. The three of us joined. The host asked my name and I said "Blondie". Weirdly enough, I've always wanted to be called Blondie. Amazingly, Raine and I got tied in first, and Rovey was second. It was awesome! The three of us had prizes! 

After the games, we decided to go and wait for the raffle. While we waited, we went to the food court and bought some refreshments. Raine took a stolen picture of me wearing the CN Blue baller (one of the prizes). 

We went back for the raffle. It was intense. Watching each and every poster being given away was heart breaking for Raine and Rovey. Even I screamed when someone got the Min Hyuk poster. 

It was sad. But all in all it was an awesome experience. I was scared because it was getting dark out and we weren't leaving the mall. We commuted home and had a safe trip. 

Dad picked me up in 7 eleven near Casimiro. I bought a slurpy. I spent a lot today. I'm sad. 

I thought of this day as an awesome experience. We had new friends and new interests. I'm still not a kpop fan, but now I respect their music. It's not that bad, really. 

*This baller reminds me that I have two crazed Kpop fan friends that will get me anywhere. I know I could trust them. I know they would have my back all the time. I love these two, I really do. 

When I got home, I immediately synced in Save Rock and Roll to my phone. I couldn't believe that I was actually listening to it. I couldn't stop my tears when I was listening to Just One Yesterday. I love the album, I love FOB!

Birthday wish list. :)

You clicked your heels and wished for me. 

-Northern Downpour by Panic! At the Disco

________________________________________________________-

Do you know the feeling when you want things but you can't have it because you're out of cash? Well that's what I feel. 

My birthday is a month and seven days to go. I know it's early to think of what would a perfect birthday gift would be. But I can't help myself. I just desperately need to let people know what I want. :))

For my birthday, I miraculously want only four things. In my previous birthdays I've always wanted millions, but now I just want four. I don't really need all four, but I just want you guys to know that I want one.  Okay, I sound like a complete brat. 

4. A denim vest

I really think I could boost  my fashionista-ness with a denim vest. That's the only thing that I don't have to complete my look. 

3. Save Rock and Roll

I can afford this actually. But you guys know how much I love money. If it's a gift, it's way better. I NEED this album! 

2. Les Miserables Blue Ray DVD

Okay, I desperately want this! I've waited for the Blue Ray version of this phenomenal movie. I want this so bad!

 1. A Penny Board

This might be a random want, but I've always wanted boards. I see it's becoming a bit mainstream, but I don't care! I want a penny board to be awesome at it! I would love to be seen in the streets just rolling on a penny board. 

Huhu, I hope I get these items, even just one really. But I'd love if someone gave me my number one wish! :) Hihi

- Disloyal Order of Water Buffaloes by Fall Out Boy

_______________________________________________

If you haven't noticed, the lyrics on top with my past posts are lyrics of songs from Fall Out Boy. I guess I'm too late to spaz about this but yeah. I'm recently gripped to Fall Out Boy. You might be wondering: what about One Direction? Or Avril Lavigne? Or Panic! At the Disco? Yes, I am a big fan of all those. Including this one. Fall Out Boy, Painc! At the Disco and Avril helped me in my darkest time. They were the music that I've been listening to since I had problems. 

Normal people would think that a band that consists of a hipster looking vocalist, an emo-like bassist, a dork but rockish guitarist, and a high tempered looking drummer isn't a good idea. But they are totally wrong. I have been a believer since I was in elementary. Since their recent hiatus, I sorta lost hope. 

In their hiatus, everyone was a success. Patrick Stump's solo career made him the man today. Yes, he got thinner, but that's not the main thing that changed in him. I can honestly remember an interview that I watched a long time ago with him saying that he found the meaning of music when he went solo. He had his own album Soul Punk. I was happy for him. Of course it made me sad as well. At that point I never really imagined FOB to be back together. I knew it was still possible, but I wasn't expecting
. 

Pete Wentz was in a band that's called Black Cards. I never really knew much about Pete during the hiatus. I was just surprised that I saw him in  reality show called Opening Act as a producer. The smile on his face when I saw those 10 minutes of him judging a guy in youtube was just priceless. Seeing him happy with what he does just makes me think: was he happy when he was in FOB as well? 

Going to Joe Trohman and Andy Hurley. These two were always my cup of tea. I've always loved how Andy looked as a Little Tree Friend. The both of them were together when they were the a hardcore super group The Damned Things with Joe in lead and rhythm guitar. And I must say, Joe really improved. He was deserving to be in a super group. I couldn't see their album here so I just listened to then in Youtube. Their music video of We've Got a Situation Here was hilarious! I could see both of them having so much fun! Joe had this huge, long afro and Andy still had his long hair. Sadly, even The Damned Things had a hiatus. Andy also played for a hardcore band Burning Empires and Enabler. And for Joe, he formed a band called With Knives with him as the vocalist and the guitarist. I heard their music to listen to Joe's voice clearer. It wasn't bad at all.

With all these things going on their hiatus, it was hard to not think that they're not having enough. I thought it wasn't that bad if they won't be back together since they were all successful without each other.

And yes, I fell in love with Joe all over again. Yeah, Joe was always the one I looked up to. He always had different looks. He can be this really geeky awkward kid, then a punk rocker in the other.

During their hiatus I never it didn't show that I was a believer. I never talked about them, but they have always been in my mind. I haven't listened to their album Folie a Duex until now. Why you ask? In that time I have been a Little Black Star. I regret not listening to it. I regret that I have left this fandom in a while.

At first I couldn't believe that they were back together. I wasn't spazzing as much as I would love to. The thing is I wasn't sure if I wanted them to be back together. I was undecided if it was a good thing or a bad thing. It then sunk in, they actually got better. They were already awesome before, and now they're incredible!

Then I searched pictures of them before. I could see how they were so happy. And now I can finally see Pete smiling in most of their recent pictures. I love how Joe's Instagram is so updated. They actually seem happier. That makes me happy as well. Seeing how they enjoyed themselves really made me decide that I'm a proud Believer. BELIEVERS NEVER DIE!

Oh, and I love JOETRICK! :))

I heard my alarm clock when it was about seven in the morning. I turned it off and got back to sleep. It rung once again when it was nine in the morning. The label was "MTV Movie Awards" I got up and turn the television on and changed the channel to MTV. 

Rebel Wilson was the host. She was hell of funny. I enjoyed watching because my beloved Loki got to go up the stage three times. Tom Hiddleston will always be awesome. He's my villain indeed. He won best fight, best villain and best movie for The Avengers. His speech was unforgettable. He thanked Liam Payne from One Direction because he named his dog "Loki". I actually saw it coming. One of my girl crush was there too! Chloe Grace Moretz. Oh, and Eddie Redmayne was there! I laughed my butt off!  Emma Watson won the Trailblazer Award. She deserved it. She really did. 

I ate lunch after.

I then went to my laptop and just chilled. 

I took a nap then I went to Pat's house. Pat and I just talked about stuff. We then biked around the village. 

I guess that's it really. :))

I'm in desperate need of money. I wanna buy Fall Out Boy's new album, Save Rock and Roll, and Les Miserables Blue Ray DVD, and not to mention, a penny board!!

Sundaaaaay

Just a normal Sunday. :) Okay, my first ootd, coming up! :)

_______________________________________________

I started the day with a big yawn. I hear my alarm at about 5:45 in the morning. I knew I had to get up this time. My thumb then pressed the snooze button. I then fell asleep. I heard my phone again then rose up. I went to my room finding Ate Cha and Bebe sleeping heavily on my bed. They were staying for the night because they wanted to. I grabbed my Fun Run singlet and a pair of shorts. I woke Dean up and we went for a jog. 

I fell asleep right after I watched The Carrie Diaries. I had this insane dream. 

In the dream our family was having a road trip. When our road trip was done we went back to our village. My dad suddenly hit the breaks and said "He's here." Somehow I knew what was going on. This monster was in the village. In this dream I trembled. I was terrified. I knew that this monster was after me because I killed its kid long before. Dad sped and went to the clubhouse. "Bianca, hide! It's you it's after! I hid. But I wanted a closer look. I checked by the window and saw this big godzilla like reptile. It was big as a house. It saw me. His eyes were directly at me. It rushed and crushed everything that was on its way. I went by a computer shop and grabbed a big flat screen desktop. I slammed the desktop on it's head. The desktop was torn into two pieces. I hit it again and again. It was on the floor. "Is it finally over?" I asked. Ate Ces was there and said "Bianca! Take this!" She gave me a flammable device. I sprayed gas all over the creature and used the device. I was looking right at the beast and said "Bianca does it again." 

I woke up. It was almost 11 in the morning. I went down and saw the two sitting by the couch. Ate Cha was using her laptop and Bebe was just playing by her side. I said good morning and ate lunch. I grabbed my laptop and went with them. Honestly, I thought this would be a lazy day in front of the internet. I was online in Facebook. Mj suddenly messaged me. He asked me if I was free. I told him no because the two were here. He was inviting me for isaw. But then I thought Ate Cha would be leaving in the afternoon to get some medicine. So I told Mj I was game. 

It was about four in the afternoon. I told Mj I'd meet him at the back gate at 4-ish. I looked outside and it was still blazing hot. I decided to just text him when I'll be going out of my house. 

It was already quarter to 5 and he texted me that we must go now. I told Ate Cha that I will be leaving. I put on my Jack Daniels muscle tee and a pair of denim shorts. I grabbed my bike and left. Ate Cha walked so I decided to walk with her with my bike in hand. I walked her to the front gate. I then biked to the back gate. I find Mj there wearing a brown tank top and a pair of sporty shorts. 

I thought the isaw place would be near. We biked like maybe for 5 miles. I hate the main road. When I see cars in the road, I suddenly rush to the side of the road. Mj was laughing at me the whole time. Yes, I looked pathetic. I have never biked outside our village. There was this time when we were going to an intersection, Mj was telling me that the roads there was no big deal. Then he turned right without looking. Then the tip of his bike met the header of a car. I laughed my head off. 

The whole trip was nerve wrecking! I seriously had a near death experience with this dude! When we got to the isaw place he told me to just get some. He treated me. He was surprised that I wasn't eating that much. Seriously, two isaws are fine with me. I get full immediately. We just talked about SFU, Seton, Magui and etc. 

After we ate, we biked to his house. The isaw place was so near his house! We went inside his "small" house. He calls his house small, but his house was huge! Well, it was just as as big as normal house, but he has another building right beside the house. He call it his temple. It was nice. It was an awesome place to relax and just goof off. 

It was getting dark and I had to go. He rode with me to my house. It was a bit more of a challenge at night. I could hardly see him! It was still fun. He still laughed at my fear of the main road. 

We went inside the village. He went with me in BlueJohn (my street) but then he told me he'll just go ahead. I rode my bike a lone with just a couple of meters. Good thing he left because my parents were at the gate, talking to someone. 

If my dad saw me with a guy he might kill the dude. I'm not kidding. 

At the end of the day, I didn't regret anything. It was fun being daring. Mj promised me that we will be doing this again. 

Awesome. 

Good night!

A Monday.

I woke up. I ate breakfast with dad while watching Real Steel. 

I went upstairs to take a shower. I put on the tank top that Ate Ces gave me for a graduation gift. and a pair of shorts with checkered suspenders. 

The smile in her face when she saw me wearing it was just priceless. I love the way how she always says I look like a star. 

Dad, Dean and I hopped in the car and left. We went to CSB for Dean's enrollment. It was weird seeing Setonians there, but I guess it was expected. 

We then went to SM Sucat for grocery shopping. We then bump into grandma, Ate Cha and Bebe. We bonded. 

I guess that's it. Today was a bit of a bummer. First, the heat was killing me.Second, my grandma didn't look happy when she saw me. Third, he didn't reply. 

I guess I just have to expect less, but hope high.
