11 things you probably didn’t even think you’d find out about me


I got tagged by helloitsairene and because I haven’t written anything long enough lately (I try my best to write about a good day or something because I like immortalizing memories that way), I am definitely going for this one.

RULES

  1. Post the rules
  2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and then make 11 new ones.
  3. Tag 11 people and link them to your post.
  4. Let them know you’ve tagged them.
1. Have you ever felt jealous of someone? Did it result to admiration or hatred?
I find this question rather funny. Well, of course I have. One thing you have to know about me is that I’m kind of the jealous type. I’m not always jealous, but sometimes I do feel it out of nowhere. I remember getting jealous of a certain girl because one of my bestfriends would always, always, always hang out with her to the point that our group couldn’t get to hang  out with my bestfriend. She couldn’t say no to the other girl… plus, she’s really the only one who could tolerate Girl X.

2. Have you ever shouted to someone (opposite sex) that you love him/her in public? What was his/her response?

No, I have never done this before. I don’t think I have ever loved anyone, actually. Hahahaha, well I don’t know. Maybe I have, but I just don’t know it. Anyway, nope I have never done this.

3. Have you ever answered someone’s question which you really regret? Have you ever asked someone a question which you really regret?

I don’t remember asking anyone something that made me regret it later on. The closest thing to that would probably be unanswered text messages. I mean come on, don’t you just hate that? What, I’m not “important” enough to merit a reply from you? Pfffft.

4. Have you ever stayed up all night just for one person or an event?

Oh hell yeah, definitely. For a person, yes I have. If I remember it correctly, it must have been back in 6th grade (or 7th grade). Nothing romantic. I was just waiting for a call from my bestfriend, and when she finally called we ended up talking until around 3am. It was a summer night that’s why I was up so late.

For an event, of course I have! Stargazing Night back in Year 2 was incredibly fun. One for the books, if I may add. I didn’t sleep that night. I just kept on staring at the night sky ‘til the sun came up.

5. Have you ever danced in the rain? Were you with someone or a group of people?

I don’t recall having danced in the rain with my friends. We did run around and played basketball in the rain, though.

6. Have you ever looked at a picture and cried? Why?

Yeah, definitely. It was one of those moments when you realize that things will never be the same anymore and that the friendship you have with that person is coming to an end. Pretty sad.

7. If you were given a chance to go to 5 different places with one person for each place, what would be the places and who would be those people?

Europe with Trinka. Davao with Cassie. Italy with mom. New York with dad. Wizarding World of Harry Potter with any of my friends who is a huge Harry Potter fan (so it’d be fun).

8. If you were given a chance to send a message on a paper through a manipulated bird to someone away from you, what would you write on the paper?

9. If you were given a chance to relive one moment in your past, what would it be?

Probably that day I found out I got into my dream school. I think my reaction was so lame. I just smiled and called up my mom. If I would have a do over, I would totally tweet it, BBM my friends, call up my mom and dad, text my bestfriends and treat them all somewhere. ;)

10. If you were given a chance to live in a house with 5 people for 100 days, who would they be?

Other than my parents? Klar, Cassie, Gabbie, Teedee and someone else I can’t think of anyone anymore. (Or maybe I am thinking of someone but I just don’t want to put that person’s name here. Haha, I’m secretive that way. *wink wink*)

11. If you were given a chance to make one of your dreams (dreams while sleeping) happen in real life, what would it be?

Oh. First thing you have to know about me is I’m really not the touchy kind of person. I’m quite awkward that even with friends I’m really close to, I get those awkward moments where I don’t know if I’d hug them or not when I see them. Sooooo, hmm… I’d say that dream I hugged this person I really like. In my dream it really felt nice and I remember feeling extremely happy, so yup, I’d totally choose that. :)

PS
I’m totally lazy to make 11 new ones right now. I’ll probably make them next time. 

Bidding the bum life goodbye… I hope! Last May 21st was supposedly my first day of work for something. I couldn’t talk about it because it was SK work but then it has been moved to June. I was never one to stay idle (I may not look like I like doing a lot of things but trust me, I really don’t like being idle) so more than a week ago, when I found out about Immaculate Conception Academy looking for History teachers (2 History teachers), I considered applying. ICA is an all-girls school that’s popularly known as the school for Chinese girls… Haha, not necessarily true, but it really was meant for the Filipino-Chinese community x number years ago. I mulled over it for days since I really am not a History nerd, but after days of thinking things through (with the help of my friends!) I decided to really go for it. Yay!

I’ve been to ICA twice and my third time to visit (hopefully not my last, either) would be this coming Tuesday for my interview and my teaching demo. I really do hope I get the job! I would really love to teach and although I’m no History major, I think it would be really awesome to study for it and teach the girls.

Soooo, I’m keeping my fingers and toes crossed for this one. Please do include me in your prayers, friends! I really want this. :)

Told one of my friends that when I get the job, I’m totally treating her and a bunch of our friends to Sunrise Buckets to celebrate! Yay. Sooo hmmmm, wish me luck, please. :)

Watched an Ateneo-FEU game today! Win or lose, it’s the school we choose. 👍 (Taken with instagram)

Paper Cut

All I can say is this:

It feels like paper cut. You think it doesn’t matter.. not until you feel it.

I am a sucker for places with memories worth remembering (who isn’t, anyway?).. I love this. (Taken with instagram)

Note to self. (Taken with instagram)

You know how you should always go back to that thing that makes you happy? Well, food and basketball make me happy so today was spent with my lovable friend, Klar (who’s really like a sister to me), being total foodies and basketball junkies. Our day kinda started early since she had training at 7am. Funny how my day started, actually. So we were at the dorm and Klar had to wake me up (‘cause I told her I wanted to walk with her to the gym because I have been living such a sedentary life lately, haha kidding). I was dreaming when I heard her voice call out my name so I kinda knew I had to wake up but when she poked me, I literally jerked “back to life.” Yep, weird things happen when I’m sleeping.


While walking to the gym, we passed through one of the “mini forests” in school and then her teammate-slash-our-friend, Sam, was spotted us so we rode with her instead. I walked back to the dorm afterwards… Slept all morning. Had lunch with Klar, Cess and Vanessa… Watched a couple of basketball games… ATE ATE ATE ATE ATE ATE (repeat one hundred times).

Sooooo, yep. Today was a good day.. And you could probably tell that I’m already really lazy right now with the way I’m ending this post abruptly. HAHAHA. TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY. :)

Also, Call Me Maybe is still stuck in my head… GAAAAH.

Title: Sing this song Artist: Annaliza Santos 20 plays

Somedaydream - Sing This Song

Just another song that I was addicted to a few weeks ago. I was bored when I recorded and I was kinda sick, so sorry.

Alsooooooo, this is probably my favorite sad song at the moment.
