Birthday Videos!! :D

Heellooooo~~ :DD



Hahhaaha. I'm making this blog so I could post the birthday videos that me and my friends have made. First, I'm gonna post the video my friends made for me a year ago, when I turned seventeen. xP

:)


The second video I'm gonna post is one we made for a japanese student of my sweet friend, Cherry Eve. :) Me and my buddies made it and I didn't expect that we would be having this MUCH fun!! :D Watchh it and see how crazy we areeee! Whahhahhaa. :D

:]

Okay, done with those. Let me tell you about the past week. :D

:]

It's has been a very exciting week for me. Though I didn't go anywhere this weekend. Hahhaa. :))
Had a lot of exams so I spent most of the week at the library. Really! It was very hard to get by. Lolz. Imagine the stiff neck you get from staring at books for hours, and how desperately you want to go out of the Lib because you feel like you can't study any longer. :))))) Phew! Thank God the week has already passed~ :))

Also, I have been trying on new hairstyles so that I could cope with the stress and haggardness brought upon by cramming and studying. Lawl. You will see that hairstyle on the vids below. :)


Also, this weekend, three of my beloved friends had their birthdays. I couldn't see them personally so I really made a lot of effort in surprising them with the following videos:

• Ivy's Birthday Video (18th)

• Dada's Birthday Video (19th)

• Louella's Birthday Video (18th)

:)


Realllyy! I had a lot of fun while making these videos. Lawl. Though I don't know if they will like it once they see it tomorrow. Lol. Anyway, they're going to watch these videos for the first time tomorrow! We are going to eat out together with the other 3rd Floor Buddies to compensate for the time when we couldn't greet and celebrate with the birthday girls personally. :)


Come, tomorrow! I'm so excited! :DD

Bye guys, I loveee you alll~ <3 _ <3
Hahahha. :D



I'm gonna make it mine. I'm sure. I know it. <3

My Free time. :)

Hi, again! xP

It's has already been days since I last got enough sleep. Lol. I wanna sleeep naaaaaaaaa but I can't find a comfortable place to sleep here at school. xP

Yep! This is the first time I've ever written my blog at school. I always do it at home while sipping a drink or munching on something. But right now, I'm actually writing without any of those! Lawl. :)

I'm kinda nervous for tomorrow's essay writing contest. I know there are lots out there who are very good at essay writing. I'm nervous maybe I'm no match to them. T_T Haha. Kidding, i shan't be nervous, righty! xP As long as I do my best, there shouldn't be any regrets. :]

Actually, it's for the DM Days Tribu Competition. I was chosen as the representative of Tribu One because I showed interest. Lol. So I can't back out now. Hahha. Have to do it until the end! :) I also agreed to do it because I heard that we will no longer be having some exams this week. They were postponed to next week. Soooo.. yaaaay~ xP Haha.. :] 

Anywaaayy, we just had our 1st Quiz in Law a few hours ago. I didn't memorize anything. I just read the readings once and I kinda regret it. Should have read lottts of times. Lolz. But it was already burning me outtt. So I stopped after finishing it once. Hahhaha. I don't really regret it that much, actually. xP I'mm ssucchh a slacker. xP 

:]

Hmmm. What else should I write here? xD

Ah! Right! I'm gonna talk about my friends. Lawl. Hm, I have a friend who got chosen as the Tribu Uno representative for the Ms. JPMAP at school. xP I'm gonna support her lotsss!!! Soooo, please support her too. XP

:]

I'm kinda preparing for the three very important events for tomorrow! :D Lots to doooo~ xP

1. Essay Writing Contest

2. Bday Celeb of my friend

3. Ms. JPMAP. 

:D 

I think tomorrow is gonna be a happy day! ^^,

:)

Alsoo.. Also, I think that is all. xD

Hhaha. It's because I have to get up already and get my things from where I recklessly left them. I can't see my bag now anywhere. Lolz. Gotta find it. Byeeee~~ :)

You will seek Him with all your heart, and soul, and strength. :]

Square-headed Lion! :D

Hi!
It's a beautiful Sunday morning~


 ;)


First off, I'm surprised with myself because I didn't really get lonely about sis not coming home this weekend. :) Next isss.. I'm disappointed with myself because I didn't meet my study plans again. Hahaha. Happily disappointed, is there really something like that?! xD Thirrddd point iss.. hm, I've been interacting with a lot of people yesterday through facebook and TWITTER! :D I have discovered a way of enjoying twitter. Yaayyy~! Cheeerss to that~ x]] Fouurtthh point: I've recently been addicted to Kitchie Nadal's songs so I guess I've been singing like a crazy person to Kitchie's songs day in and day out. Hahaha. Fifth.. (woah, i'm talkative) last week I've been very busy with studies and my passport. I have to be prepared just in case there's an opportunity to go to my dream places! :DD


On this post, I'm gonna post a really cute icon that, I think, best describes me. :D I just found this one on the Internet and yeah, I really can relate to it.

It's a square-headed lion that I took from the story, "The Square-Headed Lion". xD I think I already mentioned that term twice. xD It's about a lion who looks different from the others and considers himself as the odd one out. In order to blend in with the others, he tries to change his own appearance by dipping his mane (head) into the river, achieving a round  mane. To his surprise, all the other lions have changed into a square mane the time he got back! After all, they actually liked him the way he were and from then on, they happily lived ever after! x]

On that note, I want to declare that I really want to get this stuff! :D

It's really cute, isn't it? :DD

Last week, my friends played with my art papers. xD Sooo here are the pictures of our Origami-making event at the UPVTC Library. xD Yessss, we didn't study! Hahhaha.

I'm gonna make these when I get my free time! xP

I've also taken a liking to BoA! :) Soooo astiig xP


Hm, also.. also I'm a bit hungry now! xD So I guess I have to get out of here and grab my food. Lolz. Hm, next week is going to be exams week. Tooo bad because next week is also DM week! We're gonna be celebrating! :)) And! We received an invitation from my HS classmate, Siobe, to go to SPSBS to watch Aloy do something crazy. Hahah. Fisshyyyyy~ Last hirit! We're putting up a retro band for the DM night. Lolz. I dunno but we have to succeed in this! XD though, we haven't practiced yet. xP


I'm gonna eat and study afterwards so..
Ciao, amigos! I love youuu xP ^___^



Don't be afraid to be different from the others. :)

Truths about having a sense of self. :)

Hi! :D It's been a long time since I've written  a blog. :)

Lately, I've been applying to *tooot* and it's making me feel dead tired. Lol. Kidding! I have friends who I can ask about it so the situation is not really that bad for me. :)

Good luck to meeee! ^___^

I found this article on the internet. This is not my article! :)

This is a post I’ve been meaning to publish for a long time as it is a personal one for me. It’s something I am putting my focus on at this point in my life. It’s all about developing a strong sense of self. When I think of a strong sense of self, I think of emotional maturity. I see it as a strong beam of light from within me – instead of a flickering flame. Over the course of a few posts I will explore 10 truths of having and maintaining a strong sense of self. In this post I want to describe each one briefly, and in the following ones I will go into some other ones in depth with specific things we can do to achieve them! Wow, haven’t I got so much fun lined up for you 

What we need to develop is a strong sense of self. A powerful inner strength that resounds from somewhere deep within you.

You have a strong sense of self when:


♥ You know how to self-soothe yourself

The ability to self soothe yourself is a skill that will take you far.

In moments of conflict or emotional discomfort the emotionally primitive response would be to suddenly look to an outside person to calm you, soothe you, help you understand, console you, accept the responsibility of the matter and implement changes. We tend to lash out in anger and fear. We make demands. We demand immediate emotional care and attention. It becomes “I don’t really care about this situation, but you better fix me and make me feel better right now!”

In that moment, when the storm is coming, you must become the calm. In the moment when your partner tells you something you were not prepared to hear, you must find your stillness. We must learn to respond but not react.

Having a strong sense does not make you exempt from experiences of disagreements, arguments and emotional pain. But a person with a strong sense of self would react differently.

In moments of conflict, or emotional discomfort – they would become more conscious. Those with a strong sense of self know how to console themselves and quiet themselves. They don’t try to control what’s happening – they just control themselves. They don’t depend on another persons actions (or lack thereof) to feel better about themselves.

They know specific things they can do that would help restore them to their natural balance. Things like – taking some time out for themselves, quiet contemplation, going for a long walk, leaving the battle field.

In the moments where you want to become submissive or dominating – don’t. Just become more conscious. You don’t have to submit or dominate something or someone in order to be in control. ♥ You keep promises to yourself

It is nearly impossible to maintain a strong sense of self if you still break promises to yourself. Everytime you break a promise to yourself, no matter how insignificant it may seem, it begins to eat away at your inner sense of trust and confidence. You start to lose trust in yourself.

A person with a strong sense of self rarely breaks the promises they make to themselves. They do not make commitments that they are not prepared to follow through on. They have trust and confidence in their own word. In their eyes (and in the eyes of others), they are always “the man for the job”. ♥ You make your own decisions and hold your own counsel

A person with a strong sense of self makes their own decisions. They don’t feel the incessant urge to share each and every single detail of every single problem they face in their life with everyone in the hopes that they may be advised, reassured or consoled. It isn’t because they want to keep secrets either, but simply because they know that if anyone should know what the next step to take in their life should be – it should be them! They think objectively about situations they are emotionally involved in. They use their logic and their intuition simultaneously to work through adverse circumstances.

They are the kind of people who always know what they did or said something. ♥ You have your own hobbies and interests that you pursue outside of your friends/relationship

Those with a strong sense of self exercise their creativity by getting involved in their hobbies and interests. They are brave enough to pursue hobbies that perhaps their partner or close friends are not a part of. People with a strong sense of self are usually the most interesting people because they place equal importance on exploring themselves. They don’t always stick to what is familiar. They are happy and busy people, that don’t depend on another persons involvement in order to pursue something that may interest them. ♥ You can set boundaries on other people’s demands on your time, energy and resources

When you have a strong sense of self you feel okay with saying no. You respect and value your time and energy as valuable resources that shouldn’t be given away carelessly. When you have a strong sense of self, you can objectively look at requests, make your own decisions and set boundaries kindly. You don’t expect the “requestor” to decide what a “reasonable time” for you is, or how much effort you should be putting into their project, or what proportion of your resources you should be investing. You make these decisions. ♥ You can make your own life-choices without the need for constant reassurance and approval

People with a strong sense of self make their own decisions about their life. They welcome support, information and advice, but they do not depend on reassurance and approval. They take full responsibility for their decisions and commitments.

Most importantly, when they do not get approval, they are still able to act with love and understanding and not bitterness or revenge (trying to prove that they were right). ♥ You act authentically, not how you “think” you should act

When you have a strong sense of self – you must be authentic and leave your “strong sense of ego” behind. Being “right” is not as important to these people, as it is for them to be real. In all of their interactions and reactions to what life gives them, they respond authentically and truly to themselves. They are unafraid to leave behind the “norms” that society has placed on them. They won’t be sad about something just because they think that’s what they should be feeling. They feel what they want to feel. They are true to themselves, making decisions and acting in a more natural way – rather than submitting to a role that we place on them. They are not afraid of their own emotions. They know that every time you make an effort to respond or react in a way that is “unnatural” for you, it just adds another façade or act that you must maintain – which takes more effort than what it’s worth – because in the end, we tend to go back to what is natural. ♥ You remain a leader of yourself no matter where your followers go

I once read that “Management want authority. Leaders take responsibility”. When you have a strong sense of self, you are by default a leader, because no matter what happens or your number of followers – you will always be a leader of yourself. Because of this fundamental belief system – these people are always on their game. They must maintain their leader qualities no matter where their flock of sheep goes. Their sense of self responsibility is not dependent on numbers or statistics about who is listening. They understand the natural and sometimes fickle nature of followers and trends – that people come and go, that numbers rise and wane, that emotions ebb and flow – and that it should not be a marker or a determiner of staying a true leader to yourself.

A person with a strong sense of self continues to live by example even when no one is watching. ♥ You take full responsibility for your life

When you have a strong sense of self, you just can’t see the point in not taking full responsibility for yourself. From a common-sense standpoint –it just doesn’t make sense not to do it. By “full responsibility” I mean more than just the airy-fairy concept that usually springs to mind. When you hold your own counsel, keep your promises, and make your own decisions – you automatically start to take responsibility for your life. When you have a strong sense of self, you give up blaming people, and start looking at your own motives and actions. You see failures not as a failures but as opportunities for growth. When someone asks them the question “what went wrong?!?! How did it end up like this?” they will always have an answer that does not involve placing the blame on someone or something else. ♥ You know yourself enough to be able to decide how true an insult is

When you have a strong sense of self you realize that you do not always have to automatically and unconsciously react to criticism with hurt, fear or defensiveness. You will realize that you are the one who interprets every thing that is thrown your way as something belittling. People with a strong sense of self are more aware and accepting or the way they are. They are familiar with who they are. Nothing you tell them would be much of a surprise, and if it was, they have the emotional maturity to consider it without defensiveness. When you have a strong sense of self you do not depend on other peoples words to define who you are and leave the highs of feeling complimented and the lows of being criticized. When you resign from this job you are left with the confidence to judge the accuracy of these statements made about you, for yourself.
