  • the good die young.

    congrats

    my adapter was plugged into a 110v instead of 220v. it totally melted the inside of the power cord =( lucky me, the first ever acer store opened at megamall but of course they still have shitty service. i was told i was "lucky" because since the store is so new, they dont have much in stock of replacement parts. and they just happened to have the one i need! i went there tuesday to get it and they said its not yet in. then wednesday, theyre like "hey didnt we say we'd call you?" and im like "hey fcuktard, dont you need to ask for my numbers to do that?"

    !$%R!#@!#!! another P500 gone to waste. at least i only paid a downpayment instead of in full.

    anyway, i dont know when ill ever get a new adapter and power cord. ive been having internet withdrawals this past week

    cousins from australia and hong kong are here. im very confused. its weird to hang out cos we dont know each other. sometimes we offend each other without meaning to. but when that happens i learn more about how to interact with them and what to say and not say.

  • speed racer!



    went to moa yesterday. omg the imax is sooo nice!

    but all those colors and characters moving across the screen and the cars racing all over the place gave me a headache for the first hour! uhm.. i think christina ricci's face is scary looking in this movie, esp her eyes =X i wont give my review because i never watched the cartoon. there was a whole lotta lip gloss though :P

    right next to me is a baby bat sleeping on its back. half the size of a pencil. so cute! i wish i had a camera! [hopefully coming soon!] im afraid of it waking it up! we found it in the "backyard". one day i will take a picture of our backyard and show you how it looks more like a prison cell lol

    today is june 24. happy birthday to trisha! [14 and a junior! ] and to my auntie [rip]!

    today is also manila day. all businesses and schools in that city are closed. not metro manila, but manila, the actual small city.

    wouldnt that be great if the states had off days like that? i would sooo party on union city day! pasig day is july 2. i will not be reppin pasig lol. its a shame that there are all these opportunities to show pride and yet rarely anyone is or shows it or takes advantage of it [unless theyre out of the country]. or maybe because of all this, showing pride became a hassle. the feelings arent there cos its too common.

    for instance, here, the national anthem plays before cultural events and school/company events and any other formal event. in schools it also plays on monday morning at 730am and on fridays at 4pm every week. im not sure if that happens at work. also it plays before EVERY movie that plays in theaters. now think of all the movies that everyone tries to watch in one month before they leave the theaters. half of the time someone is singing and the other half no one is. when the anthem is played without a singer, you are required to sing it loud. uhm.. i dont do it, i kinda mouth the words cos the words are still tricky for me :P

    when i watched speed racer yesterday, i got so nervous cos i heard the opening bars play! i didnt wanna sing cos there were all these foreigners in the theater! but yaye! the clip on the screen had celebrities singing =)

    in related news, on july 4 i am going to the malls with my passport in hand to avail of free gifts and discounts. suck-ups! also i am really hoping barack obama will win the election! i am looking forward to watching filipinos squirm in front of a black president when he gets here. hahaha

  • i love joe!

    protected.
    read first please. i need advice..

    sex and the city! carrie noticed that big never really wrote her a love letter before. he said they dont need to, they see each other all the time. and he made a point when he said that lovers had to do that in the past. they had no choice because they were separated at sea, by war, etc. etc.

    well lucky me! i have joe's heartfelt feelings towards me [good and bad] in writing =) i get to read them every time im sad. i dont have many pictures with him unfortunately, but these letters suffice because i get to read joe's thoughts over and over, imagine him speaking to me again. they convey everything i feel and more when i look at our photos.

    here's my last letter from joe. =) =) =) which shows why im confused about his death. and why i really really really want my letters/cards back from him so i can put them all together. we have quite a collection. i guess i should just be thankful that i have the ones from him =) i shouldnt be too upset i dont have the ones i made.


    excerpt:

    ....but alongside these lessons learned, the enlightenment received through retrospect has one unyielding truth:

    all that i dont and i could have had, and all i DO have going for me now, was attained through growing and living life alongside you, Chloe...

    you should know: i can name but very few good attributes of mine as a person before life with you. strange, since i feel i can come up with more negative adjectives bout me then. yet after learning so much from you and with you i am confident in describing my life now as quite satisfying and complete (considering the mistakes ive made, you know?) complete only because you convince me all the time that what we have and what we invested all our time and feelings in, everything between us-- is sooo worth it. i love you my babygirl =) oh wait, i guess the only missing piece really is being able to hold you and feel your skin, but when missing you starts to hurt-- it pacifies me to know that we are both in preparation for a good life together... (doesnt cure the hard-on though =X)

    i am endlessly grateful for what youve done to me and what youve shown me.
    especially for how you love me.
    i love you, Chloe H----.




    thats right bitches. better recognize!
    ilovejoe!

    Review
    “If I have learned only one thing from a) personal experience and b) Vivian Cash's fascinating memoir, I Walked the Line, it is this: No human can compose a love letter without seeming slightly insane. Love letters are like suicide notes -- if someone is in the emotional position to consider writing one, they're generally in the worst psychological position to make any cogent sense. That disconnect is what makes this book a painfully entertaining twelve-minute read. The book delivers exactly what it purports: random personal letters from people who are either wildly ecstatic or profoundly depressed over the condition of their romantic existence. Judging from the contents of these notes, we appear to live in a society that is sex crazed and optimistic, yet consumed with deep regret. Making matters all the more interesting is Shapiro's epilogue -- he contacts several of the contributors and finds out how the relationship worked out, postletter.”

  • h s m s port s fes t

    when your organization consists of honor students, they dont exactly have the time to spare [or talent lol] to choreograph a great cheerdance routine. i can just imagine how well we would do on ABDC! the names of the teams come from the names of the founders of the org.

    Lau ro Lim uaco League [green team]
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QX_FZ97yWaM

    im wearing green shorts and a black shirt. you only see me in the beginning. then im in the back watching the whole time going "wtf? im soo glad i didnt join the dance this year lolololol" they were asking me to have a solo so that we could win again lol but i never showed up for practice. you know how local filipinos dance, youve seen the movies. its a competition and i didnt wanna join. cos if i put my heart into the dancing, we could win but itd look hella whack! plus they put it on youtube! nooo! ill ask chris if last year's can be put up so you guys can see :P


    Team Osc ar Ma pua [blue team]
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77xEGu8MDhw

    sports/games
    basketball, volleyball, badminton, patintero, touchball [dodgeball], chess, relay race, jackstones ultimate game of death!, and crocodile river lol!

    this was our sportsfest for HSM a couple weeks ago. i was on LLL and we won the events overall! woot! im always on the winning team! iono what sports we actually won for and if it includes the cheerdance cos i cut out early.

    last year i won Ms. Sportsfest Muse cos i summoned up all my cheerleading knowledge from reliable movie sources like Bring It On and acted like a total blonde to win. YES! lol, and this year i was sposed to do it again but i wasnt in the mood to be all cheery.


  • you know 90% of people's problems are due to their inability to get over the past?
    -12 and holding

    this movie was surprising. the girl is young pumpkin from memoirs of a geisha. she looks so different without makeup on!

    ugh, i swear this is now my "i miss joe so much" site. my apologies. i need somewhere to vent all my frustrations. to feel like someone is listening or at least skimming through it. i understand though if you dont. its not exactly the best reading material to start or end your day.

    i get tired of the heartache, i dont wanna feel this way anymore. but if there's "good days" when im alright, i start to feel guilty at the end of the day for getting over him. for starting to forget. every day is a challenge. how do i cope with this pain in a different way? i think i need to take more time. im tryna rush the healing process to get back on track w school and everything but now i think its doing me more harm than good. by not thinking about it and keeping busy. i dont wanna have emotional baggage. i dont wanna find out later that i buried things in my mind that im tryna forget. so with the rainy season starting up again, i gotta rethink my grieving process. its gonna be a rough couple of months coming up in so many ways. im afraid of taking on more units than im ready for. i have til july 1 to decide how im gonna handle this, how many units to take.

    so anyway, these damn mosquitos wont quit biting me! i got the electronic fan on blast to deter them from flying towards me but it makes it hard to hear the movie!

  • hulu =(

    thanks virg!! watchtvsitcoms works! <33333
    omg! movies and shows galore! and its so clear! now im paranoid that someone will discover im streaming outside of the US and shut it down!

    today i went to mall of asia to the imax theater and it is NICE. all for $6! omg the theater is NICE! :D im not good w adjectives haha. sooo apparently ironman stopped showing weeks ago =( most theaters only have 4-5 movies showing at a time. some even have ten! i rarely watch in theaters so i keep forgetting that movies only show for about 2 weeks in theaters to make room for the hundreds of movies that US turns out every month plus the local filipino movies and the occasional ones from other countries.

    anyway i got there 130pm, bought speed racer tickets for 4p, and got a pedicure while i waited. usually i get good ones for $2 but i went to this nice place today to treat myself out. it cost $5 and was so not worth it. it was just a pedicure without the foot spa, massage and nail polish. i coulda got all that for the same price at my usual place! =(

    then i figured its okay, cos i get to watch in an imax theater, but i get there, and there's a technical difficulty! no refund! which SUCKS wtf? i swear i hate philippine policies on so much crap. so there's only one theater and the next two showings is kung fu panda. i cant go back tmrw because i need to go to a seminar at school, we're gonna visit my lolo again saturday and sunday, and monday to tuesday i'm going to laguna, to joe's hometown to spread his ashes with his sister-in-law. =( the last day to watch the movie is tuesday and then itll be taken out.

    maaannn i knew i shouldnt've procrastinated. i been putting this movie off because i dislike going to mall of asia. getting there is easy, but leaving the mall takes too long. since its the newest mall in the philippines and the biggest in all of asia, its a tourist spot. plus it was built far away from everything else so that the land around it can be used to expand the mall later. the different taxi/jeepney/bus/fx lines to leave the mall take forever!

    the day wasnt a total waste though. i got a lot done in two hours. went to Dell, Samsung, this hair place, bought a healthy shake, took pictures of Joe's tags in random places that i know of in manila, ate at deliFrance, got my laundry and dry cleaning done AND came home early =) i'm hoping that ate mimi will be on filipino time and we wont be able to make it to laguna on monday. i exchanged my imax ticket for monday just in case. if i cant go, it doesnt matter anyway, cos there's no refund.

  • everyone has different tastes in movies. so no matter whose house i go to, i end up borrowing between 5-10 pirated movies. and after i return them, there's always more waiting for me! i love it! =) =)

    also youtube is doing the entertainment industry a favor. instead of me buying 029345024635 illegal movies and tv shows, i can just watch it online! before it gets taken down :P i'd watch full episodes on their respective sites but its not allowed out of the US =( =(

    examples
    xanga [may]
    This is the last month to get 2,000 credits for each survey you complete. Surveys are one of the easiest ways to earn credits and it only takes about a minute of your time!

    We're very sorry but currently we have no surveys available for your country. We're working hard to solve this issue and get you some surveys. Please check again in a few weeks. Have a great day! =(

    youtube
    We're sorry but this [music] video is not available in your country. =(

    movies.aol.com
    We're sorry but the clip you are currently trying to view is not available in your area. =(


    i saw legally blonde the broadway musical on youtube last week. soo cute! i loved it! me and michelle were singing along cos i guess mtv put lyrics on the bottom :P now im currently watching "12 and holding." coming-of-age movie

    yesterday i borrowed
    no country for old men
    ratatouille
    21 grams
    i know who killed me
    in the land of women
    license to wed
    pride and prejudice
    the last kiss
    a scanner darkly

    this works out for me because its not bad quality. my family doesnt buy movies that consist of someone holding a cell phone camera in a movie theater to tape the whole thing lol. also i dont mind the chinese or bad english subtitles.

    BUT i went to abenson the other week to check out new air conditioner prices. OMG i saw my first HDTV ever!! its like i could touch the small pieces of gravel on the road under that shiny shiny car! P70,000! the US exchange rate is fluctuating again. YES! more allowance for me! :P a month ago that HDtv cost $1667 and as of last week it still cost P70k but now its worth $1569. uhm, i forget how big the screen was. 40 inches?

    also for trisha's bday we bought hella tvshows all for $16! if i like it enough, ill buy the real thing in the states later.
    one tree hill seasons 1-3 i started watching it again cos im bored and iono what happened after i left in 2005. pretty tame stuff though since after watching gossip girl :P

    kyle ky 1. no thanks

    ugly betty 1 i love this show! its so funny and cute and i love the clothes =) and amanda! i already saw season 2 on youtube =)

    heroes season 2

    the office 1-3 i bought it cos i heard so much about it and joe loved it. ive only watched the first episode so far and i HATE it! maybe joe only told me the parts he knew i would laugh at. it seems like such a guy show. maybe ill start watching it again later

    30 rock 1-2. i keep hearing good stuff about this show too. i dont think its great though. i watched all of season 1 for the hell of it, but iono when ill finish 2 yet.

    gossip girl. i like this show! ive tried to stay away from drama shows since i came back from US but this show i like! 100% of the time, i dislike pretty girls after i find out how bitchy/conniving they are. but blaire! i cant stop liking her! maybe cos we also see her vulnerable side. and i cant get enough of her clothes! i looked her up on wikipedia and she's 22. i always stay away from clothes that make me look like a little girl but maybe i shouldnt do that anymore. cos im picky and its hard for me to shop esp when i only like the simple stuff. if i completely shun clothes that make me look younger, then i dont have much left to choose from that fit me! now i just need a job.. or a credit card :P

    when i can, ima buy desperate housewives seasons 3-4 and pushing daisies. who has the time/money to watch a $4 movie! not me =)

  • bored.

    really bored.

    today's an okay day. i wanna call him though. just to be like, "hey how's heaven. im bored. talk to me for an hour please. is God a woman? is my name in the Book of Life? what do u guys do up there? jooooe you forgot to watch Atmosphere live with me!! =/ and you forgot to make babies with me too *pouts* i think you can see me every second now, but can you hear/read my thoughts? or is that just God who can do that? if i wanna talk to you, do i gotta say it out loud? cos lately ive been mumbling everything just so you could hear me but low enough so people dont think im crazy lol"

    hmm.. i swear, living in pi is so boring.

    i know i was a good girlfriend. now that i think about it, there really wasnt anything wrong with us. just the living situation, being far apart. if only, if only, i went back in march like we had planned for me to. that's something im gonna say forever and ever and ever. i knew i needed to go back. trust your instincts folks. really listen to them, cos theyre more often than not, theyre right.

    today's not a "omg why did u leave me?!!" kinda day. i miss him today cos im bored. i got nothing to do today. maybe if he was here we could go get ice cream right now or something. summer is almost over. its just a lazy june morning. or just lie around in bed staring at each other. every time we were apart for months and months and months we'd do that first. cos its so weird to see each other for the first time again. its like the beginning of the relationship all over again and again and again. butterflies or in tagalog, the slang word "kilig" =) we loved that part. its the greatest. and then leading up to the "first time" all over again the next day :D

    i just miss everything about being in a relationship. i miss being in love and having someone to love you back.

    its past the 40day mark and my goal for that day was to not make long public/protected depressing posts anymore. *shrugs* im not depressed today. just bored. hmmm.. what to do, what to do.

    right now i have a craving for sushi!

  • happy father's day =)

    i have zero pictures of me as a baby. divorce is ugly. things get lost along the way. he said she has my baby album, she said he has it. =(

    we went to tarlac this weekend. my grandpa is dying =(
    he had a heart attack last november and was slowly improving since then. i feel bad for not visiting him more often but i was busy with school =( joe wanted to meet him. i was telling my lolo to please hold on until joe could come. then joe died may 4, my grandpa's bday. and lolo had a cerebral aneurysm the next day. coincidence?

    lolo is living on oxygen tanks which are pretty expensive.
    after fook chuen left the room, my grandma started crying and asking me what she should do. use her remaining money to let him live even though he'll only be a vegetable, or the other option and send him to God. i told her it was up to her, i wouldnt know what to do. [i didnt think i was in a good position to say anything. i didnt get to decide when joe would leave me, but she does.]

    then we did this prayer.
    in the middle of it, lola says and please take care of chloe. you know how she is feeling right now. please help her be strong.. at this point i was tearing up. everyone at the house was ignoring me but then i realized they just wanted to give me space. ..and help her find a much better man. LOL so instead of crying i started laughing instead! i forgot that she didnt approve of joe! when he was here, i was "sneaking out" of the house to go see him. not really, i told her where i was going and then she told everyone related to us that i was being difficult. and sometimes joe would miss me so much that he'd come over late at night even though he shouldnt [cos im the girl] and sleep over in the same room as me and my sisters. we didnt do anything, but because im in pi im being a "bad influence."

    gosh, i miss that :P

    then we went home and i raided the family plastic bags again for more baby pictures of me and ones of my dad yes! =) a month ago i posted about wanting a family pic. we couldve taken one at the funeral but i didnt want to. it didnt seem right. here's one of the three of us though :P



    how me and joe celebrate father's day without kids.
    joe: who's your daddy?
    chloe: you are! you are!

    lol <333

    read this. its really good =)
    promise.
