No grey areas

My most recent "ilovemyself" session. It's been awhile since I have taken my self portrait. I've been busybusy with work that sleep is the only thing I care about when I hit home.

And fin'lly, After I gained all the extra energy left in my body, guess what happenned next.

I'm just learning how to put an eyeliner. So spare me from your judgement/s from my uneven eyeliner drawing. HAA!

my own bucket list

*sighed

I'm tired of wishlist but as of now, its all that I can do.

This is what recently added on my endless wishlist (it just got me depressed everytime I look at it) LOL.

The Herchel supply Co.

Can i just sing my frustration out like La La La

and I just can't LEGO

I remember that tiny colored bricks that my mom gave me as a graduation gift from way back (srzly, don't ask me WHEN was that, HAA!). I don't have it a long time ago so it surprised me how pricey it is now. From my time, it only cost 500+. presently, it cost 4 to 5 digits. imagine? If only I knew how to take good care of things like those, I would be guiltless now. GAA

As I scan the newspaper for some brain-feeding time, I came across this one page from inquirer that features moleskine LEGO notebook limited edition ( I had moleskine for my 2012 planner). I just fall inlove quickly just as how human falls in love too quickly. Lol

My LEGO obsession still haunts me. watches/notebook/anything lego. I just can't take my eyes of them. as of now, I'm still looking for that Lego watch I saw two years ago at rustan's kids section. When I was about to buy it, it was already sold out. That's why I'm clinging to this. But, How I wish this precious wouldn't turn like the previous one. WISHLIST.

crazy crazy lil' thing

This is pure rambling. Don't tell me I didn't warned y'll.

I lost count the number of times I wish to fin'lly meet the 'man of my dreams'. Wish there, Wish here, until came to a point that I've been tired of all the pointless wishing that I told myself to wake-up from a dream I've been living for so long and face reality that fairytales, sometimes, takes a lot of PATIENCE and TIME to come true and not just ' two unattached people met in the forest' and then BOOM! voila scenario like what brothers' Grimm once told.

Iem' a 'no-boyfriend-since-birth' lady (err. should I count him in? maybe, NO). Okay, I've been once in a relationship but I don't think I shoud include it ( I will not tell you the reason why), we've been together for a year but it's just not enough to count him in. HAHA. no bitterness. just to be clear. pure statement only :P

For the past years (yes, years), I never failed to follow-up Papa God about my love-life. I think even Cupid stops being stupid and have been irritated with my braggin'. But what can I do? Typical drama of another hopeless romantic. I guesso.

2012, a year of enlightenment for me. Iem' in slowly letting go --what is IDEAL and start facing what is REAL-- state and sometimes, I let things flow on its natural current to see what life can offer me if I loosen my grip in some situations like, yes, LOVELIFE. ♥

I am not worrying, and definitely not hurrying Cupid whose, I know, still in search of my the one. I'lllet the coming times surprise me, I love it more that way than to be waiting in vain.

What else? basta, if Love knocks, my door is always open. Dumating siya kung dumating. I will not force myself to like someone I don't like just for the sake of that crazything. It's quite ironic, you say?

#walalungs. I just wanna have s'thing to blog 'cos its been EONS the last time i made an update. I miss my blog so muchooo.

-XO

guilty

Usher sings in my head, u got, u got it bad, if you miss a day without your friend, your whole life's off track. Exactly where I've been three years ago. Just now that I've been able to reflect from the song.

no bitterness and whatnot, just thought I'd share :P

Make-up

I know its been EONS the last time I updated you. But forgive me , for being so busy this past few weeks that I didn't have time to even have a glimpse of you.

I've got my very first job. Its not that the job is toxicating, its just that my body is still adjusting from the changes in my daily routine--which is well, a lazydaisy--into something more complex.

I'll make it up to you in the soonest possible time and when things fall into place.

Love, jak.

CHEERS! to a POSTEROUS year ahead

another year. another home. hello, Posterous.

Still on the verge of figuring out how this works though. HAA!

when it's time to go home, you'll know

There's really no place like Puerto Princesa. Not that I'm telling you this because Iem' from the place, but the reality has proven the fact.


Fresh air, white beaches, clear sand and whatnot: what more to ask for? I consider myself lucky to be born in such a wonderful place. Not everyone was given the privilege not to worry about the flash-floods and other natural calamities that may come. We are "flash-flood and other natural calamities" free town. HAA!


"Come back, come back" syndrome is what commonly experienced by the people that has gone to Puerto Princesa. 'Cos once you came, you will definitely come back. 


I will not say more about PPC. It's not a good choice for me to advertised it. :P


I love puerto princesa. On second thought, WHO DOESN'T? :)

Yo' motha puckers

...one thing I can never go without (set aside the basic necessities), it would be my magic-wands.

When I was kid, Iem' always amused seeing the grown-ups put make-up on their face. I lost count the number of times I try to imitate them using my mom's -and lola's- make-ups ( I used to sneak in their make-up kits alot like a lot lot before to play with )HEE!. And, well, I will not deny the fact that after I used it, it looks like it just got hit by a super-typhoon. SO MESSED UP. LOLOLOLOL

I remember my mom buying me make-ups made from friendly plastics just so I can continue my obsession without harming my-then smooth skin. HA! But It bores me I ended up sneakin' again their Mkits 'til such time that they not hide it from me anymore. LOL

I used to be inlove with eyeshadows. Neon-bright eyeshadows. Imagine my horror when I see my own reflection in the mirror with too much eyeshadows on. HAA! OH, CHILDHOOD!

growing up. I adore women with barely-there make-up. So, my love for  bright-colored eyeshadows slowly faded and replaced by lip stick/gloss/balm-obsession. It easily get on my nerves whenever I feel my lips tightened 'cos of dryness.

Lip Wares are my instant upper when I feel all ghetto. They had just this magical sensation on me that transformed me into a good mood again. It's like a magic wand that can make me revamp into.... something. VOILA!


ENOUGH with my exaggeration. HAA! Below are the "magic-wands" I tried (as far as I can recall) and Iem' psyched to try. Thought I'd share....

Tried:

the strawberry is my favorite. The Pomegranate's color is what I can't resist. 

(1) strawberry & (2) chocolate: my favorite is the chocolate. I used to licked it, back childhood. HAA!

I LOVE THIS. it just cause me allergy after a month of using. i don't know why. I still buy one once in a while. I just stop errtime the moment I felt the skin surrounding my lips started to itch. STUBBORN. 

the minty feeling after is refreshing. good to put before the lipstick.

one great find.

everBelena's lip/chick tint.

ma ma magic wand!!!!

the smell is so good.

looks natural. the way i liked it

a gift from me to mom. I used it after she opened it. HAHAHA

LOVE

moisture PP104

semi-matte PK102

NARS orgasm blush and gloss are my ULTIMATE fave!!!

when my cousin (Dianne) first told me about this concert, my initial reaction was, "really?" "oh my gosh, we must watch!!!!".

I am not a huge A1 fan (not a fan at all) but I like some of their songs. What made me really OMG was the Blue. I am a fan since the day they enter the music industry . 

I didn't watch the westlife concert for some reason, and the regrets are still haunting me, so I'll make sure that this one will be FTW.hephep!!! hihihi

my "blog"

Dear Blog,


      I am sorry for not updating you for so long. I promise to make it up to you when Iem' all amped-up. There're lot of stories I've been excited to tell you.

love,

krysteen

heard it from the Chipettes

Can you blame me if I find it so schmexy how they sang it? " three little birds, sat on my window, and they told me I don't need to worry". It making my body groove to the beat. On the other hand Corinne Bailey Rae (original) version was good too, methink the 'squeky' effect of the girls were just so awesome. OLALALALA...


Bring out teh' girl power yo'.

WOAHW that was nice

I feel like Iem' obliged to say this. uhm. Rob Reiner is just awesome. Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson, too. The Bucket list movie left me teary eyed for some sort of reason I cannot well define. One of the best movie made in the decade.

It inspired me to make my own list, UCH.  to make more out of life. To see the world in its bigger view.  " You only live once, but if you live it right once is enough" as it goes, triggers the eagerness in me to go out of my personal bubble and let myself experience the life it self. adventures, challenges, dramas, fun, failures, success and whatnot.

Quite pressuring though to get the ends meet but nothing is impossible in an optimistic mind person. right? I mean, It's my list, it's my own choices, it's all about me to get it done. 

Above it all, I am nothing but psyched to have my own bucket list and even more excited to do it and have it completed. 2011 maybe my calmest year as I set it to be, but in 2012, I wanna be out there with the storm and rockin' the waves. bring it on. mwuagsz

PS: I'll share it once done (the list).

To begin with, the original title would be "what's up NMAT" nothing special. I just want rhyming. But everything turns down and theres is no other way that I can turn it up. get me? sure you do :)


I don't wanna feel like all ghetto but the exam result were quite upsetting that I cannot help myself not to be really upset. Like the song goes, " I did my best, but I guess my best wasn't good enough", I felt ashamed for myself for thinking what I gave was my bestest when in fact I didn't give any much effort on my review.


I will not tell you what did I get 'cos its way too shameful to share via intrawebs. I'd rather keep it unnoticed under my racks. I have prepared myself not to expect so high 'cos I know my limits but I have never prepared myself to get that so low I'll even would've drown myself. just imagine. try try to imagine and put yourself on my shoes, you'll be upset. Assurance guaranteed.


I've been dreading myself for the past two months about this whole THING but I guess all those time I'm not even starting preparing myself for this whole new journey Iem' going to ride into and sometimes it makes me think that Iem' only doing all this to escape from the bitter reality, workstuff speaking. Guess mom was right, as always. 


Avoiding bed epiphanies are much better but at this time when Iem' pressure and about I just cannot ignore it just like that. Sometimes it leads me to some more sensible epiphanies that'll end up to the start of something that sometimes means a good beginning. But, really, insights are much better to come in the morning.  Mch more tolerable that way. 


BTW, to those who are planning to take up NMAT exams:


- it is given every april and december every year.
- filing of application is two months before the test via online. just visit the cem.com or simply google NMAT. Some instructions were given on the site.
- after all the payments were settled, check the what to bring during exam, check your room assignment and school (release two weeks before the day) and what not.


review: 


- I don't go to a review center, I just borrowed a compiled reviewer from a friend who's now in his first year of medicine. Some other says that MSA review materials were way too leveled-up. IDK since I haven't had the chance to scan some MSA nmat reviewers.  
- highschool (chem&physics) books are bible they say too. So, you might want to pull the dusty boxes out under your bed.


the exam:


- bring food (optional) just to save you time and energy. Exam starts at 8am (be there atleast 6am to save you from the hassles- there will be a long line before you can enter your assigned bldg-) and finish at 11am. break is for 1 hr & 30 m before the part two of the exam begins.
- one pencil is enough just bring sharpener though.
- candies, water, gatorade and stuff are permitted. 
- exam will finish at 3:30/ 4:00 pm depends on what time you've started.
- computation are at peak in mathematics (stating the obvious), but nothing much on chemistry and physics. no calculators allowed, FYI.


I know Iem' not the right person to be talkinh this to you well y'know , but I just wanna give the newbie takers some insights about NMAT. Hope it'll help.


Iem' planning to take up again on April 2012, and hopefully in God's willing I'll give it a kick. God bless us all.

How I miss to write about senseless things. But, even though how hard I try to drag myself to hit the keyboard to come-up with something to write I always ended up clicking the red button.


Today, I am sick. And the snot factory is very well productive in my system. The lazybone is growing rapidly in me. And this, this, this HMN thing (guilty as charge) is the one responsible for all the laziness in my head. YOSH. no cravings = no energy. iDunno if my hypothesis were right though.

Bruno Mars sings in my head 'cos Today I don't feel like doing anything I just wanna lay in my bed Don't feel like picking up my phone, so leave a message at the tone 'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything.. I'd love to live with that for now, and I wish everyday without getting tired.

XOXO. ♥
