'green' and bear with me

If you were falling
Then I would catch you

You need a light
I'd find a match

Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am

If you are chilly
Here take my sweater

Your head is aching
I'll make it better

Cause I love the way you call me baby
And you take me the way I am

I'd buy you Rogaine
When you start losing all your hair

Sew on patches
To all you tear

Cause I love you more than I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am mmm

you take me the way I am
you take me the way I am

after months of working, its actually only been around 3 months since i started working, but it does seem a lot longer... a lot, lot, longer... not that i dont like my work.. i do... and its fun... working with all those people... but we always seem to go home late and still go to work the next day on time. i miss hanging out with my friends, going home at a decent hour... all the usual stuff that i do, before i started working... but i do love my work. i learn a lot of things, practical things that i wouldnt have learned in college no matter how hard or how long i stayed there...

--

i just wish that i become a regular employee... its not like im the worst employee ever... but im certainly not the best either... im getting better though... its just that i dont think its enough.. anyway, lets hope my boss doesnt remember all the mistakes ive done over the past months...

--

i know i havent written a lot over the past months and this entry should have been a long one. but i just cant remember anything worth mentioning..  anyhow, toodles!

its been such a busy week.... ever since i got back from manila, ive been going out to hand out my resume, go to tests and interviews all over makati and taguig/sucat... well that is a bit exaggerated but that is what it feels like.. my feet and legs hurt. and ive been waking up at around 6am every morning... hay... and im not even working. yet. what more when i do. but i think i did good. thats the only good thing i can think of right now.

-- 

why cant the companies i like call me? even to say that they cant/wont accept me... hello!?!!? it would be loads better than sitting around the phone, waiting... expecting every ring to be them.. okaaaay... i didnt actually do that. not yet anyway. but i might next week.. im done walking around makati. all im planning to do is bum around the house and wait for their call. they have until the end of april to call and hire me... (kapal! as if im the best out there) or else im taking the job that has been offered already...

--

im going to meet my southie friends later!?!?!? yay! cant wait.. its been such a long time. go go go! and we have a new 'reyna ng carpool' haha.. war car mode! good thing cha already fixed her battery.

--

after my makati escapade last thursday, i decided to go sab's place in qc... and (drum roll pls!) i rode a bus going there.. my gawd! its so tiring and nauseous. anyway i got there in one piece and spent the rest of the say there. the next day, sab went to makati to spend time with me... gumaganun?!?! haha... anyway, she treated us to icebergs coz we were craving ice cream since forever. unfortunately we didnt order one there, we ordered milkshake. haha.. masarap... 

"thanks for the treat po... for the nth time!... ang dami na kasi noh! haha..."

i know i havent been updating my blog religiously and a lot of things have happened over the past few months. hell, the past year! this is my last year of being a student of architecture. and i must say it was one hell of a year. thesis year takes up a lot more time than i expected, going to the different government and private offices, agencies and what-have-you's just to be able to get the much needed information. and that is a lot of information to have. can you say information overload and still consider it an understatement, well, thats me... i have had too much information regarding my project, the site, construction materials and technology, i literally don't know what to do with it.

--

 almost a year... unoffically.. whatever that means... haha... you know who you are..

--

last friday of the month.

last day of exam.

last day of school.

last day to wear our uniform.

--

last saturday, i watched vantage point with rc and barbie, and ate dinner at rairaiken with them plus cha, jen, and ais. vantage point was good... i suggest that you watch it.

--

im really very happy that bryan and i patched thigns up before school ended... thanks!

--

start of the week we had our last outing.. very very fun!?!? all the usual things we do plus more and yet at the same time, almost all of us had that lingering feeling of sadness.. this would be our last get together... as a class.. as students.. time seems to fly so fast especially when you're with them... ill miss the laughter, the moments.. everything that makes our class unique in every aspect of it...

what aissa said is true, no words can ever express how happy ive been tha past five years ive been with you guys...

enough with the drama... we'll party like theres not tomorrow and meet up whenever we have the chance...

--

whats really saddening is the fact that after this, there is no turning back, no start of school to look forward to, no more summer vacations with friends... it just all ends here...

so the past week has been tiring and fun and all those other adjectives that people use to describe something undescribable... get me? anyway, i got my wish of not defending on monday, coz im definitely not prepared for that, but i got to defend on tuesday... hmm.. i wasnt sure if that was a good thing or not... but i believe in signs and good luck and what have yous and thankfully i passed... i wasnt really sure if i was ready because, tuesday isnt really far from monday... i mean what can i do in that short span of time... i have to prepare my speech, bind my book, prepare my clothes, arrange my boards, print my executive summary... i was seriously freaking out two hours before my defense... i was that scared and nervous. it was a good thing that my jury were good. but i got really scared when one of them was actually a WWF volunteer. hello!?!!? of all the luck.. and so he asked me all these questions about WWF - why the panda, whos the president, founding date... thank goodness i did my research... i was really scared and it showed in my voice and hands...

i would like to thank everyone who helped me, most especially jen, isaiah, and aissa... and to all those who watched, I LOVE YOU! haha.. i wouldnt have been as confident or as good as i was if i didnt see your face in that crowd.

no words can ever describe waht i felt before, during, and after my thesis defense. and no feeling can describe what i felt when i opened the paper containing my grade. my thesis proposal, World Wildlife Fund for Nature- Southeast Asian Headquarters, soared... (inside joke!) hehe...

to all my friends who already passed: yay! to you... you did it! im so proud of you!

to all my friends who are defending sometime this week or the next: you can do it! i believe in what you can do!

im finally done.. after months, years (okay, years is a little exxagerating but still!) I AM FINALLY ENDORSED... now all i have to do is make good on my defense.. which i really feel apprehensive about and ill graduate! yay! i cant wait! please please please give me a good slot... i cant defend on monday, thats for sure.

 now i can sleep peacefully... rest...

feels weird to write on my blog after such a loooooooooooooooong time. but this was the only free time i had.. i swear...

so after 3 weeks of school and endless nights of doing research (what? as if i already did a lot!) me, rc, aissa and isabel watched high school musical at the meralco theater... and it was good... so the storylines the same from the movie, duh! and they didnt exactly adapt it to philippine setting and context, but it was all good.. they pulled off the lines and the scenes perfectly... it was sooooo worth it... the songs were based from the movie except for like 2 songs, but what irked me was that the lead's voice wasnt all that good. the set was good... and even the costumes looks authentic-ish... not exactly what they wore on the movie, but close... and the good thing was, i was with my friends. as the school year starts to become more like school, its nice to have breaks in between with the people you love.. hmmm... hahaha....

--

on the downside, we had an impromptu quiz in as3, and it was hell... i dont think i got the correct answer and i really cant fail anything now... as in! o well, better luck next time....

--

i met up with some of my high school friends last wednesday at la salle.. yay! its been forever since i last saw them, and its good to know that some things just dont change... my friends are still my friends no matter how long we've seen each other... they still know me inside out and know what's bothering me and why.... (drama much?) i guess im getting too old to actually think about those kind of things.

-- 

i vow to walk through that arch before the school year ends.... i love it!

omg! haha... i have my thesis proposal approved already. and far though it may seem from my 'glamorous' conservatory of flowers idea last year (which i did halfheartedly at first) im back on track and loving the new idea more and more... its the world wildlife foundation southeast asian headquarters... hmmm... so i guess its still nature related so thats a good sign isnt it. but the animal part? haha... we'll see... i mean, if it was up to me, id gladly choose flora over fauna... but hey! as long as it works im all for it! go go go! im still scared as hell over what the year would bring, but having a definite thesis proposal helped brighten my day... im excited and anxious and what have you over the coming weeks and months...

this is my first real entry since forever.... haha.. its just that things have been happening so fast i just cant find time to write it all down...

I LOVE YOU GUYS! haha... that means everyone! haha...

9/10 june 2007: i did absolutely 'nothing'... and it was fun... haha... too fast too soon? or too slow too late? 

hmmm.... the day started out good enough but i never expected to be doing nothing at all the whole night. weird and fun at the same time. i love it! haha... i think i'll do it again soon... :D

5 june 2007: HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! haha... to you, you know what it means so no need for explanations... and lets hope we get to say it more...
