Ilocos Tour: Still Not Ready

Okay, it's like 5 hours before the call time for our Ilocos tour and I am still in a bad composure. I'm really nervous as my instincts tell me that something bad is going to happen to me there. My retarded bird brain always gets me into trouble. I just can't relax right now. I am trembling and very, very afraid. I really wish my cousin could come with me, that would make things easier and better. 

This is not my first time for a tour like this, I mean we went to Laguna when I was in high school and everything went fine.

I'm almost finish packing my things and I already bought all the food (hopefully) that I'll be needing for the 10 to 12 hours trip - water, chips, candies, cookies, nuts, marshmallows... all junk foods.

So here's a picture of my packed clothes... and don't judge. I know I'm bringing more than I should for a 2 days, 3 nights tour, but still, bringing just enough clothes won't help a paranoid, bird-brained like me.

Ilocos Tour: My Reasons To Go and Not To Go

For many centuries, I have been waiting for the time to go to the Ilocos Region of the Philippines... okay it's an exaggeration. I have been planning to go there ever since high school. And this Sunday, we are going to Ilocos for our YPrimar Tour. I should be excited and happy right now, but I am not. These are the reasons why and they are divided into to groups. My reasons why I want to go and the reasons why I don't want to go.

I Just Finished Breath of Fire 3

I can't believed I just did.

I finished the game that my older brother wasn't able to (because the Playstation back then got broken)! I feel so... blank. Now what?

Just kidding! I already downloaded Breath of Fire 4 and so I'll proceed to play it afterwards. Anyway here are the screen shots that I got (I screen shoot all the conversion, but I won't show all of them I think they are more than a hundred or so...). These may serve as spoilers to those who are playing or who wants to play it.

Wedding of the Season

Or would it be?

The Season 4 Finale of Drop Dead Diva entitled "Jane's Getting Married" aired yesterday, September 9, 2012. As a big fan and supporter of the U.S. Series, I have my duties and responsibilities not to miss a single episode of it, especially the "Season preludes" and the "Season finales".

Since it was just aired yesterday, and Drop Dead Diva's Season 4 is not being televised yet here in the Philippines, or at least not on the channels available in the cable package we availed, I still have to download each and every episode that comes out every week or two.

On the season finale sneak peak that was shown on last week's episode, Jane Bingum is getting married to Judge Owen French. This is the wedding that Deb or rather Jane was dreaming all of her life. Of course, the wedding isn't complete without Terry Lee (Jane's assistant), Elaine Bingum (Jane's mother) and Stacy Barrett (Deb/Jane's best friend). Also, it is already expected that Kim Kaswell, Jay Parker, Luke Daniels (Jane's new guardian angel), Bobby Dobkins, and I am expecting to see Fred (Jane's former guardian angel) to appear even just for a few minutes of exposure. And of course! Last but not the least, let us not forget about Grayson Kent, who realized that Jane (or Deb) is the most important person in his life now, although he did try to forget her and move on by marrying Vanessa Hemmings who ended up as a runaway bride because of her own securities on Season 3, Episode 4 "The Wedding". Well, as I was saying, let us not forget about Grayson Kent, who I am still hoping upon to stop the wedding and tell Jane that he loves her and take her away. Owen may be sweet, caring and all but I still vote for Grayson (GO TEAM GRAYSON!).

Hopefully, Drop Dead Diva will be renewed for another season or should I say for another more seasons.

Well, my download's already done and so I'm off to watch the "Wedding of the Season" or maybe the most controversial episode for me. But before I do so, here's a picture of what Jane and her bride's maids' looks and dos.

Doesn't Jane look lovely in that gown? And Terry (left) and Stacy (right) looks so fantastic.

Happy Birthday Patricia "Tol" Cajutol!!!

Since I almost forgot Patricia or Tol's (the nickname we gave to her during high school) Birthday, I feel like I should really blog about this... (okay, this doesn't change the fact that you still have to treat me... after all that is Resident Evil: Extinction)

That feeling you get that you are the one who take a shot of this...
Anyway, this is Tol.

So... Tol... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

Thank you so much for making my 3rd year high school more fun and for making me love Taylor Swift before anyone else went gaga over her! I knew that I am always teasing you and the likes of it but... well, I am not the only one right? I mean there is Tiru and Krisha... just kidding! I won't tease you a lot if you are not my best friend so that means you are special!!! I still owe you that free cinema and foods, but I'll make it up to you after the tour! Oh! And I still want to watch Resident Evil you know... I can always find time for you to treat me... :)))))

And again, no pictures yet... but hopefully, after watching RE, there will be!

Maybe...

So maybe one could hate something like "that"...

But sometimes one hates it yet that person doesn't want "certain things" to get deleted just because that person have his/her own personal reasons like...

Maybe that person knows that something like "that" won't ever happen... as in it will never happen the way one wishes or wants it to happen or maybe more personal reasons that no one will ever understand? Who knows? Someone could get unpredictable as the sea or the sky or even the universe.

Don't think that you already know what is inside a person's mind. It doesn't mean that what one is doing is what is inside that person's mind. As stated above, someone could get really unpredictable.

And so... I just really had to take that off my mind... It's not something that I want to get in my mind stuck for millenniums and so on... and then blah blah blah. It's all nonsensical and all. It's just some random thought... or could it be?

"That..."

Some things just happen...

Whether you like them or you don't like them...

Whether you like and don't like them at the same time...

Whether it reminds you of a thing in the past or is something new...

Whether you regret it or you treasure it...

Whether that, and that, and that...

Surely, there are a lot of instances when something happens but we won't know if we would like them or... well refer to the statements above to avoid redundancy.

Sometimes we plan them... or we just let "destiny", "fate", or whatsoever abstract belief of supernatural properties take the lead on making these things happen.

But when we don't plan them and we certainly don't look forward for "that" to happen... things could get out of control. Maybe we'd like them for one second, then again, after "that", we might feel so embarrassed, we feel so... I don't know... regretful.

Regretful because, probably or more so often, "that" involved someone we care about? Or we just don't feel comfortable with? Or someone who we would thought that he/she would think "I am never going to stand near this person again..." after the two of you were surrounded with some people who would just tease and tease and tease and have fun while you are so devastated because you feel so embarrassed, ashamed, or shy towards that person (I don't really know what words to use regarding of that)... something like that. Then again, I may just be a little too negative because we won't know for sure what is inside people's mind especially if they don't even talk much... and I mean once in a blue moon talk. Never mind.

Then something happens that reminds you of some particular "that" that happened in the past and voila! You are suddenly in a melancholic state, your mental processing is quite dysfunctional, and you just can't think of anything other than what happened and you start to worry about tomorrow and about that person like... I don't know... "I would never be able to talk to that person again" thing.

Then again, maybe that's just me and no one ever experienced something like "THAT".

Breath of Fire 3

I know I should be reviewing for my other exams, but I just can't help but to play games, especially PS1 games. Yep, I like old-fashion classic PS1 games. They might have what people say as "crappy" (or that S-word) graphics unlike today's almost life like 3D graphics.

So what am I playing? (quite obvious just by the title of my post) It's Breath of Fire 3 which was release somewhere around 1997-1998. (Yep, it is that old!)

Breath of Fire III Characters: Ryu (the blue-haired), Princess Nina (the winged girl), Rei (the tiger-like guy),
Momo (the girl with long ears), Peco (the onion-like creature beside Nina), Honey (the little creature below Peco),
Garr (the gargoyle-like Guardian behind all of them) and the Faeries (the creature on Peco's head).

The story takes place in a fantasy world where humans live alongside anthropomorphic creatures, and centers the story on Ryu, the last of The Brood (a race of people who can transform into powerful dragons), as he searches the world to uncover the mystery of his people and reunite with his surrogate family. Ryu's journey takes him into adulthood where he is joined by a number of other characters who aid him in his quest. -- thanks Wikipedia. (I'm too lazy to think right now.)
