123105Happy New Year, people! If you’re one of my online friends and/or a regular visitor, feel free to grab this. :D Thanks to Jhesca, Masaya, Mitch & Nadja for the fansigns!

OMG. I did something stupid just a while ago… Somebody shoot me now. Being giddy while listening to John Mayer sing to me, I accidentally deleted this folder filled with ideas for songs/layouts, graphics I made, my LJ icons, funny images, textures & brushes, stuff like that. Boo, that sucks. It’s obvious, my John darling. you make me lose my mind. Lol.

Yesterday was Charlie’s birthday. Unfortunately, our families had plans of their own so we didn’t get to see each other. I miss him so much.

I hung out with my family & some relatives yesterday. It was great ‘cause we barely get to see my mom’s cousins & their families. My second cousins are such fun… we played some cool games, ate fondue (yum), I cracked up with laughter over my siblings’ antics, and my sister Doreen & I tried our hands on playing the piano again. Haha. My brother lost my favorite pair of sunglasses though. A lot of fun stuff went on and I wouldn’t mind having one of these reunions again. The last 3 pics on this page are from that day.

I didn’t get any sleep yesterday except for about 2 hours during the ride home. So yeah, now I’m sleepy. Woo dizzy. Check out this song/lyric I wrote & make me happy will ya?

And I don’t make resolutions. I never stick to them anyway, so why bother?

// December 29th, 2005 // Comments Off // Holidays, Love, Music, Rant

Sorry for not posting recently. I really have nothing much to write anyway. Though I did update a couple of things here on the site (ahem, new song). And since a few people have been asking what I got for Christmas, here’s some of it…

I got these for Christmas plus cash, 2 more shirts, underwear, Lindsay Lohan's new CD & a picture frame.

i’m not vain. i’m just a camwhore. hahaha.

// December 26th, 2005 // Comments Off // Family, Holidays

122605My dad gave my mom a bouquet of peach-colored roses for Christmas. He surprises us sometimes. Sweet, eh?

On Christmas Eve, I went to mass with some of my family. I haven’t done that in years… Go me! Ha. When we got home we ate our Noche buena (Christmas dinner) which was very delicious of course. :P Then at the stroke of midnight we rushed over to the living room to exchange gifts. Guess who was assigned (ahem, bullied) to be Santa. Even though I didn’t get everything I wanted, I really do like the ones I received. And yes, Liz, I really wanted to be with my whole family this year. That came true so it’s a big plus. ;)

Then on Christmas Day we all went to our grandma’s house. This is our first Christmas without her so it was a bit sad. My brother cried and my sister who’s a doctor was on duty (WTF?!), but other than that it was great. We also had games, great food, and hmm I got some cash from my relatives. Haha. More money for whatever the hell I’m saving for. Tehee.

I was supposed to go to the mall with my dad today but he got lazy about it & I overslept anyway. :D So the rest of today was spent eating, watching sitcoms, listening to Lindsay Lohan, talking on the phone & going online. I really gotta get a move on, though. I haven’t started on any of my homework for next year! What’s up with that anyway? Isn’t Christmas break supposed to be, well, Christmas break?!

I also wanna thank Dorthea & Paige for their Xmas fansigns! Thanks, everyone. I never expected I’d get so many this year… I love you all, really!

PS: Happy birthday, Verity!

who’s the ho ho HO that pissed me off?

// December 24th, 2005 // Comments Off // Holidays, Rant, Site Updates

122405Hey y’all! It’s Christmas eve, so Merry Christmas (and whatever holidays you celebrate)! To those who don’t celebrate anything, have fun anyway. ;) I made this for all of you! Feel free to take it. Just remember to save it & link it back to me!

Survey. Hands up, those who think my site’s a waste of space? Hmm, I see. Just one hand up. See this (entry #29) to know who the big motherfucker is. If you hate us so much then why don’t you just keep your blatherings to yourself? And never EVER go hating on my friends (online or off) and let me find out!!! Go violate yourself into a wad of tissues and eat it.

New layout, haha. Like it? I do. Yaya. I guess it’s my Christmas gift to myself. Speaking of gifts, I hope everyone gets lotsa presents tonight. Don’t eat too much sweets though, you might get a toothache! :p And if you can, go to mass ok? It is, after all, Jesus Christ’s birthday. And I’m not being sarcastic here.

Before I go I wanna thank Giselle, Nick, Alex, Michelle, Brandy & Lucy for their Xmas fansigns for me! I love them!

even the best fall down sometimes

// December 22nd, 2005 // Comments Off // Friends, Holidays, Life

It’s Thursday, right? Ok, ‘cause for a while I wasn’t sure. I think I overslept and forgot I was alive… So I’m sorry for not posting earlier and for not commenting back yet on your sites. :( I will after I post this, I promise.

Tuesday was the last day of school wherein we have a Christmas concert thing and fireworks. It sucked, pretty much. I mean, some bands did some ok songs but this celebration is nothing compared to last year. Except the fireworks, of course. That’s some of the best 5 or so minutes of December 20 (they didn’t have that last year).

But guess what, I fell. Yes, stupid little Imee fell on the sidewalk on our way to school last Tuesday. My left foot fell in a hole, so now my leg is wounded and bruised. And I screamed a girlie scream… so that was pretty embarrassing but I can live with it. Ha.

Later that night was our house party celebrating Verity, Cyrian & Charlie’s birthdays. And ok, mine. It was really great, I swear I enjoyed it more than the Xmas celebration in school. :p I made drinks which could give some bartenders a run for their money (ok not really). And food, yes lots of food. Because we are all strange little pigs who devour like there’s no tomorrow. We all talked loads, poked fun at each other and also played spin the bottle sometime around 2 or 3 am. Bonding time indeed. We ended around 5 am, I slept and woke up at 10 am! Wow.

This is the part where I got all confused… See I stayed home all day yesterday. I think I had a hangover from Tuesday and ended up sleeping around 4 pm! You wanna know when I woke up? 9 am today. That’s like 16 hours of sleep! Hold on, can you get hangovers if you weren’t drunk??

Today I was at the mall with my sister. I bought my mom a bottle of champagne (orange fizz, yum!) and a CD for Charlie for his birthday (I’m not telling what it is since he might read this). And for myself I got an army tank top and an Elvis shirt. We also ate a lot… Japanese food for lunch and ice cream for snacks.

I gotta go call Charlie (if he’s not mad at me anymore) then go online again to return comments & send out 20+ more Xmas fansigns. Thanks to Kerri, Mizzy, Jenni, Nancy, and Hazel for their Xmas fansigns for me! Gotta go now, bye guys.

i saw herbie! amongst other things…

// December 19th, 2005 // Comments Off // Family, Friends, Holidays, Life, Love, Sports, UST

Ok, it’s almost midnight & I haven’t posted in three days. Sorry. Just one more day of school & I’m home free! :D So the last few days have been a blur. Let’s see now…

Today while on our way to Charlie’s house, we saw a Herbie replica! You know, the VW bug in the movies? Yeah. Anyway at his place we watched tv/movies and ate lots. It’s been a while since I went there because the house is being repainted. His mom even said missed me, haha. (=

Yesterday I woke up at 2:30 in the afternoon! Why? Because of the previous night. But that’ll be elaborated on in the next paragraph. Anywho. So yeah I woke up late & missed the Journalympics (name very original & creative haha). And my cousin Ruby came & brought food from Laguna (not the one in California ok).

Saturday was our annual family Christmas party/reunion. Crazy night. At first I felt like crap, I mean really. But then it got better (somehow) and I ended up $22 richer. Muhahaha. I also got earrings, makeup and other cool shiznit. Some pics from that night are here.

Hmm what else. Oh, today we exchanged xmas gifts. I got a shirt from Kay (and yes I will be wearing it tomorrow). And I got Lindsay Lohan’s new CD from Charlie (he made me open it, he tricked me!) :p I haven’t opened the ones from Joyce, Babsie & Shelly yet. And I’m glad so far everyone’s been liking my presents for them. Yay. Which reminds me, gotta go finish sending out those fansigns!

PS: Thanks to Kayla and Nadja for the fansigns!

it’s like you’re always stuck in 2nd gear

// December 8th, 2005 // Comments Off // Friends, Holidays, Rant, Site Updates

It’s not mumps after all. Because if it were, I’d be very swollen & semi-paralized by now, eh? My family suspects it to be caused by a wisdom tooth. Yeech.

So I didn’t go to class yesterday. That’s how sickly (and lazy) I am. But at least I don’t have classes today, so yeah! More relax time? Not really. I have to go fix my room & such. And I have to finish some poems/songs if I want them to meet the deadline tomorrow for publishing. *fingers crossed* Though I really have no will to go to school tomorrow ‘cause I’ve got a ton to do afterwards!

Hmm. Last night, for some strange reason, my site was down. At least for me it was… Which could explain the lack of visits during the hours of 6 PM till midnight. o___O

Oh yeah. If anyone would like a personalized Christmas fansign from me, just email me about it. Though if you’re an online friend of mine (or I’m one of your pervy fangirls) you’d probably get one anyway. But please be nice & make me one too? *wink*

Yesterday was Dylan & KC’s birthdays. Happy birthday, guys!

i’m so ugly but that’s ok ‘cause so are you.

// November 24th, 2005 // Comments Off // Friends, Holidays

112405

The other day, I assembled the Christmas tree. My mom decorated it yesterday, but I’m not sure if it’s finished yet.

I went to the mall with Charlie today to buy Lance a present. I think we (our friends) will go out tomorrow night. I hope I get allowed to go, but I doubt it because I have to go to school on Saturday morning. My dad said “we’ll talk about it with your mom.” Here’s hoping…

Yesterday was Amie’s birthday! I didn’t get to see her all day though (our class schedules are total opposites). But my brother dropped by later that evening, which was fun. He didn’t stay too long though ‘cause he had a basketball game.

And for those who still don’t know how my new hair color looks like, check the campic. It’s quite near my natural color, though I look pale in the photo. Haha.

salon imee, now open for business

// November 20th, 2005 // Comments Off // Family, Holidays, Life, Memes/Surveys

112005I dyed my hair black. Woohoo! I was beginning to hate my hair having obvious roots & I wanted to be low-maintenance again. My hair’s never been this dark—my natural color is brown-black. I like it though. While I was doing it, my dad was freaking out. He kept asking if I knew what I was doing, etc. lmfao =p

I went shopping for Xmas gifts with my mom today. My brother didn’t come with us though (he was at his friend Chester’s). I think I’m halfway done & I hope I finish buying presents within this week. I also bought stuff for myself, finally. I got the Harry Potter 3 video, a shirt, shoelaces, shampoo, hairdye, and a necktie with pink spiderwebs. Sweet. (=

Sabrina has infected me. Lalala.

Rules: Post 5 random and weird facts about yourself, then at the end, list the names of 5 people whom you in turn infect. Also, leave a post to these people letting them know they have been infected.

1. I used to call John Mayer my husband back in high school.
2. It didn’t stop at that: my friends called me Mrs. Mayer!
3. I have a strange, unintentional connection to basketball players.
4. A lot of people say I look like Avril Lavigne, even if I don’t.
5. I used to be so addicted to the Mighty Ducks movies.

I choose to infect: Joyce, Kxia, Nicky, Robbie & Joie!

Thanks for the comments on the new layout. It’s not finished; some pages are still with the old coding but I’m too lazy & tired to fix it. Nyaha.

happy halloween! (how original)

// October 31st, 2005 // Comments Off // Family, Holidays, Life, Love, Rant

My left eye is twitching. Maybe it’s because I haven’t slept since yesterday. Either that, or my newly-sharpened black eyeliner betrayed me. Whatever. I’m annoyed & in pain.

This is probably the lamest Halloween post ever. Where I live, it’s not a huge occasion. No one gets to wear costumes, you don’t see kids trick-or-treating outside, and definitely no halloween parties. A few decorations in the mall stores, but that’s it. How boring.

But what I’m really frustrated about is not having “mischief night” here. I really want to TP or egg some certain people’s houses. And getting away with it because I have a legit reason. Sighsighsigh.

Yesterday, I went to the cemetery with the family. My mom didn’t come with us because she already did the previous day, and who’s gonna look after the house? It freaked me out how many graves we visited this year. And it rained, which totally made the trip somewhat sucky. I hate sinking my chucks in the mud.

Stop grinning, Charlie. Stop it! =p
