It Has Been A LONG Time...

Mode: I'm back!
Currently listening to: My Life Would Suck Without You - Kelly Clarkson

I'm only posting now because this is the only time I've got when my hands are tingling to do something like typing.

Here's what happened for the past days and weeks of April...

First Week - Not much had happened except for eating soft diet for my new lower braces. I'm not allowed to eat anything crispy or hard-to-chew foods.

Second Week - It was very challenging 'cause there were two none working days at that week. I had to compete for the remote control.

Third Week - My birthday was a success, though it was simple and we celebrated it at home. It's my 16th birthday so there were many foods. there was homemade sandstorm, baked macaroni, spaghetti, and double dutch cake from Goldilock's. It wasn't very extravagant but there were a lot of foods which I like and love the most! My birthday, April 14, was supposed to be the start of the reviews for entrance exams at school. It was moved to April 15, birthday of my most favorite seatmate ever!

The first day of review was awesome! The teachers were great and very impressive. I just hope the teacher in math who I fear (he's a guy) won't be my teacher in Trigonometry next school year! The teacher in Physics was somehow boring. But, as time goes by, she can pull some jokes! I hope she'll be our class' teacher next year because it has been said that she is better than the other Physics teacher. The English teacher is awesome! There was never a dull moment except when she discusses, which is something she does very briefly. During discussion, she makes a joke. They're really funny!

Then I believe it was a Sunday when my best and I, along with another friends of ours, went to SM Sta. Mesa to watch a movie. And that very fortunate movie would be... "17 Again", starring the one and only, Zac Efron!!! The movie had a sense of humor, lessons to learn, and a lot of Zac Efron!!! It was amazingly awesome, dude!!! You should try watching it if you haven't seen it!

Fourth Week - The last week of review for summer vacation. We still have Saturday Classes for the next school year for us to refresh our minds of what we have already learned in the review. The last day was not really that memorable, so was the second to the last day. Things weren't that exciting anymore and weren't that fun anymore as well. I got bored. The only constant was that I was late from first day to last day! How cool is that?! But I know that I can't do that during regular classes at school...

Fifth Week - In general, I kinda trained myself last Monday, April 27, to wake up as early as 8am. It was because of the 2-week review. I had to wake up at 6am but still managed to be tardy the whole review.

Anyway, since I had no more reviews, I continue enjoying my summer. I already wrote another poem about boredom. And I learned how to tune my guitar. I just had to go to this site, http://www.chordbook.com/ to guide me in tuning my guitar and many more.

I also developed an interest in the dictionary. I know words that I never thought of encountering in my entire life.

I also went back to my piano. I use it every night to pump me up and make me feel tired so I can go to sleep. You see, my piano has this cool feature that allows itself to play any beat or rhythm that I want. With that beat, I can sing the songs that I already know. Also, I discovered the piano keys I have to press for me to play the background music in Jeopardy. I can also play it in the guitar so every time I watch Jeopardy, 7pm on Velvet, I play the theme on my guitar.

And now that I stay home again, my brother and I cook our breakfast, and snacks. And since I have no plans for this week, I scheduled a check-up with my dentist yesterday and today at 2pm. The dentist pulled some teeth together this time. And it hurt the most yesterday after I left the dentist. Of course, the first thing that I ate after I left the dentist is ICE CREAM to cheer up my gums from the pain that they experienced. But I didn't go home empty handed that day, I got a souvenir from the dentist. She gave me my very own toothbrush and toothpaste! The problem is that i forgot to get it from her yesterday. And I forgot it again today. I will have to get it from her on the next month we meet.

It was cool 'cause that day, yesterday, was also my bonding time with my brother. We ate at McDonald's. We were there for 1 and 1/4 hours. I only ordered plain sundae without anything and regular fries. My brother ordered Chicken Fillet w/ rice and drinks. Then he ordered sundae with chocolate on it.

That was the second long-bonding time we had. The first was last Saturday, the last day of our review. My brother and I had to come with our mother to Trinoma. That was the meeting place of my mom's high school barkada. My brother and I didn't want to tag along them so we explored Trinoma from the second floor to the fourth floor then we went to the ground floor. It was from 3:30pm to 7pm. But before we had a walk around the mall, we ate burritos and nachos in Taco Bell while I narrated 17Again to him because he hasn't seen it yet. We didn't watch a movie that time because all cinemas were already starting the film. We had to wait till 4pm. We didn't want to sit down and watch a movie to kill 2 and 1/2 hours, so we agreed on taking a tour around the mall! =)

Now you know what happened to me this month. This is the first and last post for this month, April since this is the last day of this month. Tomorrow will be the first day of May. 10 days from now is my brother's 13th birthday! But I don't know yet what to give him!!! (maybe he doesn't need one)...

Poems

Mode: Defensive
Currently listening to: All For One - HSM2OST

I posted a poem about brownout because there was a brownout for 6 minutes last Tuesday, I think. I also posted reflections because I wondered why I got perfect scores in those reflections of mine. There will be a sequel to the First Week of Summer. The title fo the sequel is... Second Week of Summer! The poem is still in the process since I'm still waiting for tomorrow to come. Maybe tomorrow I'll finish the poem then on Sunday, I can post it here.

Anyway, for some reasons, one of my "killing-time" activities is writing poems. It is usually all about what I experience or what had happened or what will happen.

Expect more poems. I'm posting them so I can get them critisized. I got to know if I am good at it so I can have a little self-esteem added to me. If I'm not good at it, let me know so I can think of something else to do instead of wasting time writing poems that are not really good and worthless.

Thanks very much for critisizing them! I appreciate it a lot! =)

Brownout

Mode: Idle
Currently listening to: What Time Is It? - HSM2OST

I can only say one thing
It’s so freaking hot!
I can only feel one thing
I’m so freaking hot!

If you ask me what I want
Cold air is necessary
If you ask me what I need
Cold air is a necessity

Now you know what I have to say
Now you know how I feel
And you know what I want
And you know what I need

So please just give me
Some really cold air
‘Cause it is brownout
And I’m freaking out!

If you still don’t get it
Then try turning off your fans
For about ten minutes or more
Then you’ll finally understand

When the sun is shining brightly
Or when the moon is the only light you can see
And the lights and fans at home are turned off
And you get really sweaty without doing anything

This can only mean one thing…
It’s BROWNOUT!
Yeah it is!
Just check it out!

Because it’s brownout
Believe it or not
I know it’s hot.
For crying out loud!

(Note: These are potential lyrics of a new song. All there's left is the music and a little edit will do.)

First Week of Summer

Mode: Poetic (not really)
Currently listening to: Tonight - Jonas Brothers

Waking up every morning
Realizing, it’s 11:30 already
Going down the stairs slowly
Thinking about what to do for today

Then I ask my bro
“Hey, dude, what’s for breakfast?”
He answers back and says,
“Look in the microwave or at the table.”

But it’s already noon
The sun rises up fully in the sky
It’s too late for breakfast
It’s too early for lunch

So I decided to eat brunch
On my plate with my spoon and fork
Then my stomach reacts
As if it is saying “Dude, eat some more!”

After filling up my stomach and washing the dishes
It now depends, what happens next
If I feel hot, I’ll take a bath
If I feel lazy, I’ll do it later

To kill time, my brother and I take turns
In using the computer and watching the television
When the other’s turn is finally over
There is an exchange of activity.

When the clock strikes at 7:30pm,
There is no way I can’t help but not to miss
A TV Anime series
Which I watch in Animax

If I missed it or watched half way
I’ll hurry up in the morning to watch it at 11:30am
If I do catch it and watch it full, this happens when mom and dad go home late
I will surely have a wonderful night.

But the day doesn’t end
Without asking my mother
“What’s for dinner?”
Then she answers, “Something really delicious!”

We eat dinner on a wooden table
That is square in shape and is foldable.
After eating, I sometimes wash all the dishes
Or fix the table or refill some empty bottles

When time allows it
I still get to watch
Hannah Montana and Wizards of Waverly Place
And sleep at 10pm.

When my dad tells us to go up stairs and the time reads 9:00,
I take my medicine and give everyone in the family a goodnight kiss
I would then go up stairs and go to bed
And pray to God then shot my eyes.

It's an Awesome Life!

Mode: Happy
Currently listening to: Train Wreck - Demi Lovato

Early at night I lie to bed
And rise like an early bird to eat my bread.
I sleep and wake up with no hesitations.
With 8 hours of sleep, I have no irritations.

Everyday, there are foods that I need to eat.
They are vegetables, carbohydrates, and meat.
With these kind if foods, I’ll have a balanced diet.
When I eat them, my stomach will have to keep quiet.

It’s okay to help people,
Especially in times of their troubles.
But we must not over do it
So they can learn themselves how to solve it.

God loves us unconditionally.
Therefore, we must pay him back equally
By loving God forever and always,
And our neighbors as we love ourselves.
