Talent Scouts… I’m in!

September 21, 09 //

This pretty much my good news two weeks ago when I received an email from Talent Scouts. It’s so cool they considered my application and will be representing me. This is sooooooo super exciting. Friends congratulated… others I know just didn’t bother. So I won’t bother venting here coz I’m excited! I’m having my portfolio photoshoot this saturday and I can’t wait to have the experience. It’s so cool! Sharing pictures might be hard, though, since it’s copyrighted. Hehehe…

Also, not long ago… It was Friday last week (dad’s birthday) I had an audition for Toi Whakaari. I spent the whole time trying to stay focused and keeping my heart rate to normal since I felt like it’s going to fall anytime. I was the last to audition, which means there were 6 other people who auditioned that I had to watch before I had a go. I think I spent the entire time plotting ways on how I can run out of that door and not do it. Thankfully, my feet stayed on the ground and I was able to audition. It was cool when I was doing it. I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it, but I’m proud that I did it. Even if I won’t get in, I’m proud to be able to do the audition. It was my first ever audition, which is why it was a huge deal for me. And what’s great about it, I also met new people. You see, God doesn’t really want us to give things up, especially when we know we love it. And He sprinkles a few more extras on the way.

Well, that night was Angelo’s surprise birthday party. I’m sure you’re very surprised. But I wasn’t able to come, so Angelo, if you’re reading the blog, sorry wasn’t able to come on your 21st. Happy Late Birthday, though! I’m so glad to have you as a friend ;) Thanks for everything and enjoy your 21st year. It’s not that bad ;)

Uh-Oh… Lazy

Woops! The last entry was July 6! And it’s now September 1… I missed a whole lot of August!!! Except there isn’t much to share about August. Hmmmm…. Let’s see…

1. I just made a decision to apply in Toi Whakaari. It’s a drama school and hopefully I get in. Auditions are next this month, weekend of Dad’s birthday. I hope that’s a good thing ;) Deadline of application was August 28. I went to the school August 27 and I just can’t help but imagine myself being in the school. I love it. Although there’s nervousness and cowardliness that popped into me when I imagine the audition. Nevertheless, I’m still doing it.

2. My brother’s birthday was 24th and gee! He has his own way of celebrating it. In the Hospital! He turned legal age of 18 (yes, legal to drink, drive and get crazy) and he decided to go to the hospital to celebrate. Lol, there are lots of drugs there! But whatever, it’s his tradition anyway.

3. YFC Fellowship. Ha! It was fun… It was also tiring in the end, coz I have loads of plates to clean. But whatever, it was worth it.

4. We’re to vacate the house in 45 days. And as of now we have less than 45 days. 30-something I guess. Reason is: the owner is going to use the house now. Ehhh, it’s ok. The house doesn’t give us any luck anyway. I was visited by someone or something in my room while I was sleeping three times already. It was beyond CREEPY!!! I never had that back in the Philippines. Let’s see if this new house will give us some luck.

5. I have a new path to take in school next year AGAIN! I think. I’m considering Interior Designing now. BUT i’m not sure… HELP??? Thing is, if i got accepted in Toi Whakaari, then I’m going there NO MATTER WHAT!!! And after three or four years (if I decided to Master in Directing) then I’ll go to University and take up Interior Designing while working as an actress. But if I don’t get in Toi, I’m not sure if I will do Film Studies or Interior Designing…. Another set of questions and decisions to make…. HELP?

Well, that’s it for now. And I think I’m changing designs soon. I’m getting rusty with designing lately. Geezzz… Be back later!

Music: the sound of breeze passing through the trees. It is music to the ears… sometimes.

Science and Religion

June 25, 09 //
0

You know what they say about religion and science always contradict each other? Well, most of the time. You know why? Because science usually just focus on the facts and the reason why it’s this and that. But hey, after I attended the YFC leader’s meeting (I was just there to crash btw) on June 17, my views on science changed and I was wowed.

How well do you know your DNA? Or your inner body parts or whatever? I know I don’t know anything about biology. Heck, I even failed my sophomore year science. Except genetics, by the way. It was the easiest but I actually forgot it now. But there’s this one small tini-tiny protein cell in the body that I will never ever forget… As in EVER…

So that night in the YFC meeting, Met* led the meeting and showed us a video “How Great is our God”. Louie Giglio compared the earth to a size of a golf ball and showed the universe. You know how we viewed the earth as real huge? And the sun even bigger? Compare it to the other stars in the sky. Err.. I’m not going through that, actually. We all know how big the universe is and how genius God is in creating the universe.

What I’m here to let you know is the small parts of our body. Like the DNA or something… It’s a protein that makes up all your our organs (thanks to my sis for that by the way). Basically, it the protein that’s part of a structure that binds cells together to make tissue, and tissues makes organs… (thanks to my sis again… okay i’m not really sure of what I’m talking about scientifically… but the point is it’s a protein that “HOLDS THE BODY TOGETHER”.)

You know how we get all lonely and sad all the time? We feel torn apart because we don’t know what to do. We feel like there’s nothing else to do but give up. And sometimes we would go “Why is this happening, Lord?”… “Are you trying to make me suffer?” or something like that and we feel like being torn apart. But think about this next few things I’m going to say. The laminin… it’s awesome. It’s described as the protein that holds the body together. Scientifically, it binds cells that forms tissues that forms organs that forms your body whatever… Get the picture? But hey… it’s that small protein that binds everything together to hold your body.

Okay… I’m not making sense anymore, right? What’s so cool about laminin? It’s just a protein.. Well……. wait till you see how it’s diagramed by clicking here and here and here for the actual. You may think that it may just be a coincidence, but hey… it’s the sign of God. The protein that holds our body together, is the sign of God. How great is that? A million small crosses hold our body together are spread inside our body. Think of it as God is inside us to hold us together.

So point is, even if you feel so down and you think there’s nothing else in life. God is in you all the time. It may not be the laminin that will solve your problems, but just think that God’s in you no matter what. Literally or not. He will always be there to put you together and be strong. Enjoy!

This makes more sense, though: WATCH IT! It’ll blew you away

Music: None but I’d say No Longer I is the best song to be listening while reading/writing this one. It’s a song composed by YFC Wellington Music Min aka GEPC

*Name changed.

The Awesome Truth

I HEART JACK SPARROW!!!

This means two things actually… But most Filis would understand why I love J.Sparrow. One meaning is because… duhhhh who doesn’t like Johnny Depp?! He’s funny, cool, awesome, great actor… and face it, guys, he’s hott. But there’s also another meaning why I love Jack Sparrow. Oh not just him but as well as William Turner, Bill Turner, Davie Jones or whatever his first name is, and a whole lot more pirates in the Pirates of the Carribean. I love these movies! It’s soooo cool. I want to be able to be in a movie like this. Anyway… back to the 2nd point why I love them…

I have Photoshop CS4 now!!! and I’m loving it… waaaahhhhh… Next up… Dreamweaver CS4! :P Enjoy

Music: None… dunno why my iTunes is a mess up. I can’t put on my music coz it’s being a mess.

The Awful Truth

*Sobs* *sniff* *sniff*I won’t be able to design for a few weeks or (hopefully) days. And the truth is, it’s not because I totally got tired of it. I just recently finished a design for Vanessa-Hudgens.ORG and will soon be out. But the aweful truth is: Dad just did a memory recovery for the laptop and we lost all files and programs. Of course, I was  told about this beforehand and I did all the saving in my hard drive. HOWEVER!!!! All programs were removed including all my needs: Photoshop, Dreamweaver, iTunes, MSN Live, RealPlayer, Cute FTP… I dunno what else, but yeah those.

Ok, what’s with all the drama? I can just re-install, right? Ok I’m done re-installing MSN Live and will do iTunes later (probably Safari as well… I’m soooo falling in love with it.) The do RealPlaer and Cute FTP afterwards… But the drama is caused by my oh-so-dearest Photoshop and Dreamweaver installer that is MIA!!! I can’t find it… I’ve searched everywhere.

Surely, it’s not in the living room since I’ve fixed that place already. No more trash, no more rubbish, no more stuff out of place. Everything is in it’s rightful place in the living room (oh and it smells good, too! Smells like strawberries). So scratch living room. I’ve searched in my room. It’s clean and I know exactly what stuff are in every side, corner and place of my room. NOTHING is misplaced, NOTHING is hiding. So scratch my room. I wanted to search around my bro’s room but it’s soooo messy and this time I’m not being exag. Like, I tried to search for it in his room, since I might have misplaced it, but I gave up before I even started. So scratch my brother’s room even if it’s in there. I tried my parents’ room but it’s also a mess I don’t want to bother just yet. But I have a feeling it’s in my parents’ room. If not, then I’m dead…

I’m not so sure if someone borrowed it. I think no one did, though. Like who will? All those who NEEDS it already have theirs installed. So well… wish me luck finding that oh-so-important installer for my oh-so-needed designing since I can rely only to that while school’s not yet here. If it’s no where else to be seen, see me in my grave soon! :P Kidding!!! <3

Edit: SHIT!!! and omg, I just broke my promise to myself that I won’t cuss ever again… BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!! can this be an exemption?!?!?! Along with the whole memory recovery-slash-reformat thing was my files in drive c getting deleted. Now, I thought my video files are in a safe place in my hard drive only to find lately that it’s NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the second night of band rehearsals of YFC/GEPC but now it’s poofff gone!!! I’m such an idiot!!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG… there are tons of great shots from there. I could totally use that for my video plans but now it’s sooooo GONE. GONE GONE GONE GONE… all because of my stupidity for only saving files from Dad’s documents and completely forgot about my own documents thinking that I have it all in my hard drive… stupid stupid stupid…. grrrr… kill me now, bury me and see you all in my grave!!!!! WAAAAHHHHHHH Kill me!! where’s my psycho best friend when u need her to kill u!!!! *kills self* LOL kidding.. anyway, time for some action. I’ll probably do another shot some time… Probably on the next GPM… “/

Music: None… coz my iTunes is not yet installed.. huhuhu

Crazy Moments

June 16, 09 //

I just had my crazy moment last weekend. It’s those experiences that you’ll just laugh once you reflect back and look at what had happened. God seriously wants me to crack up laughing no matter what we’re in right now. Like, God wants me to ease up and not think of the bad side of life and just laugh once in a while. (In the family, though, we’re ALWAYS cracking up!) Anyway, here goes with what happened last weekend:

Saturday, we went to Tito Andy’s house for a get together since they just got back from the Philippines. I was completely bored and was hoping all the time I brought the laptop with me. Crazy moment #1: when I wished that I saw my youngest brother playing with a PSP and I borrowed so to lessen the boredom. But there was no Tekken in Carlo’s PSP… so I borrowed Ate Reg’s PSP. Then my brother had this whole thing connecting the two PSPs and we played Tekken. My youngest bro got bored and borrowed Tito Andy’s iTouch. I was like O.O!!! I was like to my brother: Wanna play tekken? Can i borrow? Random, I know. So we swapped. I got all excited inside and played with the iTouch. Ok… Apple always makes me crazy… I’m a mac freak, what can I say? Anyway, crazy coz after wishing I brought the laptop, I actually went online using the iTouch… I know… random… LOL

So anyway, when we went home I got all too excited to work on the new layout of Vanessa-Hudgens.ORG since it’s the first time I’ve done some designing since over a month ago. I boot the laptop and as soon as it reached the password thing, it went blank and closed. I was so gutted when I restarted it never did… O.o I was soooo frustrated I didn’t get a chance to go online and just finish the layout. I tried the power switch million times, but it did not work. My brother knew it wasn’t working, my dad tried it as well. So we pretty much all know that it wasn’t working. See crazy moment #5 below.

I fell asleep at 3am, I think, feeling sooooo bad. The next morning, I was a little late for church… But surprisingly, I was alive. Ha! Well, not a surprise anymore actually. Ever since YFC, I started becoming more alive in church. I was a bad catholic. LOL… Back at home we went looking for the receipt of the laptop so we can have it changed (it’s on warranty for 3 years) but with NO luck! My dad was having a bad mood because he was totally in need of a laptop to look for a job. Not my fault the computer went crazy. So we spent hours since the Saturday night looking for the receipt when…
