first of all, I would like to apoligize for not updating this account. HAHA.

Bill Kaulitz. Found this picture of Bill on the internet. I think it rocks, haha, kinda reminds me of that pic bea took. the way she took the photo was great, but I wouldn't say so for the subjects. On the other hand, i like the subject of this photo. :)

Battle of the Bands (before mag battle part 1 xp). Magtatagalog na ako ha? wala akong balak magpakapormal para dito. Ilalagay ko dito kung ano ang gusto ko ilagay. >:) ayun, edi una, sinundo muna namin ni bea sila mamii sa cerealicious. ang usapan namin ni mamii, 4:45-5:00 nasa cerealicious na sila. eh nakapunta kami ni bea dun ng mga 5:15 na ata, edi akala ko umalis na sila mamii. haha, kamusta naman kasi yung magpapa-customer service na sana ako sa sm para hanapin sila? anyway, lumabas kami ni bea ng cerealicious para maabutan namin sila sa labas kung sakaling hindi pa sila dumadating. HINDI PA PALA SILA DUMADATING NUN!! anyway, bumalik na kami nun ng school, eh pinapalabas yung mga tao. kaya nagpunta nalang kami sa mcdo (hindi ko na maalala kung naisipan lang namin nun na magpunta o kung may nagtext para magpunta kami). Ayun, edi nagpunta kami ng mcdo, tapus, nakita namin sila bernice at ang ilang mga tao sa mundo ng kisay. at as usual, ipinakilala ko si mamii at si evil stepdad sakanila (pakilala ko nga pala kay reg kila mamii ay jjampong.. haha). edi kumaen cla, nagcomment c mamii sa ilong ni calvin, sumaket ang mga tyan namin kakatawa sa comment ni mamii, at pumunta na kami ng school.

Battle of the Bands (before mag battle part2 xp). Pagkatapos kumaen, nagpunta na kami ng school para sa harap kami makaupo. At mas maraming pagpapakilala nanaman sa mga tao sa mundo ang inabot ni mamii pagdating namin ng school. haha.. ayun, nagpa-eyeliner si calvin at nagmuka siyang bakla dahil dun. tapos, yung mga kasali daw sa battle, pinapunta nila sa gpta building. edi ayun, umalis na sila calvin at humanap na kami ng pwedeng upuan. si bea nga pala namili kung saan kami uupo. angganda nga pala ng pwesto namin (sarcastic tone, you'll find out why later). pagkaupo nila bea, umalis muna kami (ako, mamii, evol srepdad) dahil nauuhaw si mamii. edi aun, after nun, inikot ko si mamii sa school (as if naman may maipapakita ako, diba?) haha, sa katotohanan lang, umikot lang kami ng soccer field at pagdating namin sa calalay, nandun yung chalkdust. edi sinabi ko kay mamii na yun yung chalkdust at nandun din pala si calvin at sinabi ko yun kay mamii. tapos ayun, bumalik na kami sa court.

Battle of the Bands. Ayan, tungkol na talaga sa battle ang ilalagay ko. edi nakabalik na kami nila mamii sa kinalalagyan (nosebleed) namin sa court. madami ng tao nun sa court, at nasa harap parin kami. anggaling talaga ni bea mamili ng spot. a little time bago magstart yung battle tska ko napansin na ampanget na ng inuupuan namin! may violet aura kasi eh! edi ayun, nung nag-start yung battle, unang tumugtog yung guest band na alumni. kumanta sila ng "the take over, the break's over" ng fall out boy. tapos, malakas yung drums, hindi marinig yung vocalist at may tunog lata! okay? ansama ng ugali ko. pero totoo naman eh. pagkatapos nila, may pa-raffle eklat pa na nalalaman yung mga tao. like, wateburr nalang. tapos, may slideshow pa sila na pinakita, mga pics ng banda na kasali! ang music, teenagers ng mcr, tapus, sabog yung music! humanda saken yung gumawa ng slideshow na yun! tapos, tumugtog na yung first band (13th Commandment) parang last year lang, noh? pagkatapos tumugtog ng 13th, sinabi ni mamii na kailangan na daw nila umuwi ni evol stepdad. edi hinatid ko na sila sa gate at bumalik na ako ng court. ayun, pagkatapos nun, tumugtog yung SSP. mga ganung time nadin ata ako medyo nabadtrip. at wag niyo nalang ako tanungin kung bakit. pagkatapos nila, may guest band pa, tapos Chalkdust na! edi nagtayuan na yung mga 4th year at nagwala na yung iba. as usual, magaling padin sila. wuhoo! after nila, yung Exceeding Zero na. after nun, umalis na ako, kasi, yung mga ka-batch ko lang naman talaga inaantay ko. sinabi ko nalang sa mga tao na itext saken kung sino yung mga nakakuha ng place. nakuha ko, 2nd lang yung Chalkdust, 4th ung Exceeding Zero at may nagsabi na 6th daw yung 13th Commandment. at bitter padin ako na hindi nanalo yung Exceeding Zero.

Theatre Arts, Speech & Drama. buong araw nga pala kahapon, theatre lang ang subject namin. kumusta naman yon, diba? haha, at inexcuse pa kami ni sir ng 3:00. una sa lahat, vacant namin yun, pangalawa, kahit na may klase kami ng ganung oras sa usual day, wala naman klase kahapon. edi ayun, nagmeet kami ng mga speech&drama people sa speech lab, napag-usapan namin yung para sa playbill, tska yung ibang mga kailangan para sa promotions. may naisip na kaming souvenir! yehey! anyway, nung theathre time, nagpaka-vain ako!! panu ba naman, wala akong magawa at sobrang bored ako. eh kung sa may cam ba yung fone ko? hahahaha.

okay.. whatever.. i promised myself that i was going to update more often.. haha.. it seems that i can't do that.. so., i'm going to rephrase.. i'll try to update at least once every month.. :)

seniors: quite frankly., i can't believe that my stay in kisay is nearly over.. it seems like it was only yesterday when i set foot onto a new territory that frightens so many kids. books., scary teachers., chemistry.. urgh! an environment that can be summed up in two words. 'high school'.

however., it wasn't as scary as i thought it would be. i actually kinda like it. they say that the strongest friendships are made in high school. when i first heard of it., i thought it was just a load of crap. haha.. i couldn't imagine being so close to someone as if they were my bestfriend. now., i truly believe that. i'm starting to get the feeling that i'll cry come graduation day. :)

sections: our sections got all mixed up.. during our enrolment., it was said that i was supposed to be in fleming4.. now., i'm in einstein4. it definitely has something to do with our chemistry grades back in our junior year in high school. well., they say it's fixed right now.. but., i'm not completely happy with it. even though i was moved to a different section., ge still isn't my classmate.. neither is the hyperactive., chocolate-loving yana..

theatre arts: yepp.. haha.. this is my elective for this year. heck., sure it's tiring.. but i swear., it's heaps fun!! i was supposed to be in 'creative writing' (that's where i originally landed). but., i wasn't with anyone i know very well. so., i asked to be transferred to theatre arts along with ge and trebor. :)

apple: i currently look like an apple due to a recent haircut. haha.. i was only supposed to get bangs.. and then., my mom saw a picture of a girl with short., layered hair and she decided to tell the person cutting my hair to make it look like that. so., there!! i have to blowdry it everyday to prvent fly-aways.. however., that doesn't seem to work at all.. hahaha..

eyeliner: i now have a habit of putting on eyeliner when i go to school and reapplying it everytime it starts to fade.. hahaha.. just wanted to share that with you.. :)

well., that's my june update.. i'll try to update again in july.. my goal: make more than one update in the coming months..

ciao..

okay.. the last post that this blog had was in february.. don't you think it's about time that i updated? haha..

anyway., i know that i said i was gonna post some of gerard's quotes. however., i'm too lazy to type in the site that holds gee's *ehem* words of wisdom.. so., if you came here to read some og his quotes., you might wanna come back some other time..

anyway., so much has happened over the past few months. for example: a new addiction! haha.. haha.. the last time that i made an update., i was so addicted to gee that i would watch the 'welcome to the black parade' video while lying on the cold., hard floor. why? well., i'd be screaming so much and doing really weird movements that i'd end up on the floor.. haha.. anyway., i got addicted to chris carrabba of dashboard confessional fame somewhere around the beginning of may.. and now., i'm so addicted to ian david carslick watkins of the lostprophets. can you spell 'hott'?

uhmm.. anyway., let's just go about what i remember *warning: this is NOT i repeat NOT going to be posted in chronological order.. read at your own risk*

i recently bought a 'liberation transmission' cd.. it was the only copy that they had in astroplus.. i think it's the same one that i saw a few months ago.. i absolutely love it! i've listened to the cd over and over and over again.. my favourite track is still the epic '4:AM Forever'

well., what more can i say? hmmm..

my chemical romance is gonna be in japan on the 29th of may. dang! and., they're about to start the 'projekt revolution' tour with linkin park and taking back sunday. i still wanna see them perform live.. urrgghhh..

well., our junior year has officially ended last march. we're gonna be seniors.. haha.. i still can't believe it.. i'm starting to remember those times when i was a freshman and i'd think that the seniors were old.. haha.. plus., the batch '05 boys were absolutely tall.. haha.. and well., i don't think i can say the same for the '08 boys.. haha.. of course., there are some exceptions to those (congratulations to benzene billones., rens cruz., kelvin lazam and james chua)..

hmm.. what more? well., i've suddenly developed a new liking towards silver bracelets. which resulted in me asking ge if i could have hers.. haha.. well., it's my bracelet now and it has the name 'ge' on it.. whoever's nice enough to give me a new silver bracelet., let me know. i would absolutely appreciate it. :)

well., that would probably be all for now. my thoughts are in chaos right now and i have no idea what to post next. as i've said., so much has happened over the past few months and i can't remember all of them..

'till next time.. :)

Remember when I said that I'd be posting pictures of My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way in my next blog update? Well, here it is. After the pictures, you'll find some trivia about Gerard. I'll probably try to add more trivia next time. So anyway, hope you enjoy.

pictures

this definitely has to be my favourite Gerard Way picture.

I know... some people absolutely hate his new hair. For me, I don't really care what his hair colour or cut is. He looks good either way and his hair doesn't make him any less of a great performer.

What is with the hand gesture?

Up to now, I'm still wonderin' what made him say that.

Gee looks like he's had too much food.

trivia

Gerard has bleached his hair blonde for the third album. This caused quite a commotion in the fanbase.
Gerard dyed his hair because as many fans know each album has a story, this time with The Black Parade (My Chemical Romance's third album) Gerard wanted to look like the main character, a man who had just gone through chemotherapy, hence his dark locks are gone and we have his newly buzzed blonde hair. (note: Gerard has dyed his hair black again.)
Gerard has trypanophobia and is deathly afraid of needles, which is why he has no tatoos or piercings.
Gerard hunches his shoulders when he walks (this can be seen when he was explaining the concept of the "Welcome to the Black Parade" video during the making of the aforementioned video.)
Gerard and Mikey's parents are divorced.
Mikey and Gerard shared a room most of their life.
The newspaper inspires him to write songs.
Song trivia: Helena was written in memory of his grandmother, Elena Lee Rush. Elena was called "Helen" by her friends.
He came up with the wardrobe idea for the "Helena" video.
Gerard has been compared (appearance wise) to Christina Ricci. Apparently, he looks like the said actress in his passport photo.
At the Warped Tour '04, Gerard was so drunk that he was on stage 2 while the rest of the band was on stage 1.
He once stalked Christina Ricci.
Gerard jogs backstage to get ready to go on stage.
He smokes Marlboro Light Red Cigarettes.
Elena Lee Rush bought My Chemical Romance their first van that actually worked.
He likes Vanilla Soy Lattes
He loves Coffee. (Everytime he goes into a Starbucks, he takes off his sunglasses so that he'll be recognised and he'll get free coffee)
He can play the guitar. (However, he doesn't play in the band since he finds it hard to play the guitar and sing at the same time. Another reason is that he thinks he "sucks" at it.)
Nipple rings scare him.
He and his brother used to dress alike when they were younger.
Learned how to draw, sing and perform from his grandmother, Elena.
Has Teen Titans bed sheets on his bunk bed in the bus.
His dream car is a red Corvette licensed "KNIVES".
He is in therapy, and he loves it!
He is obsessed with death, and has been since he realized everyone has to die and they will end up alone. THIS WAS WHEN HE WAS ONLY 8 YEARS OLD.
He actually sings during the making of their videos.
Gee thinks of My Chemical Romance as a "gang".
His therapists are named Bruce and Diana. (They appear in Gerard's Thank You's in Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge)

I'll be posting Gerard quotes in my next blog update.

The italicized words in the parentheses are comments by me.

And for those of you who are wondering what Christina Ricci looks like, here are pictures of her.

As for me, I don't think she looks like Gerard. But if you do, then that's your opinion.

Remember when I said I'd be posting Gerard Way pictures in my next update? Looks like I'm gonna have to postpone that since I haven't uploaded his pictures into Photobucket yet. So, I guess I'm just gonna have to post them the next time I update.

As for the title, I probably haven't done anything this whole Christmas Break other than stick those earphones in my ears and listen to my iPod.

It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a Deathwish: This My Chemical Romance song is absolutely great! I've been listening to it all morning. The lyrics are kinda stuck in my head. My Chemical Romance Rules!!!

this hole you put me in wasn't deep enough, and I'm climbin' out right now

4 AM Forever: This song is from the 2006 album "Liberation Transmission" and is by the Lostprophets. These guys totally tock! Ian Watkins!! Haha! He's just got this smooth rock voice and it sounds heavenly. (yup, I'd probably say he sounds better than Gerard, but Gerard still rules supreme!)

Lead singer Ian Watkins recently claimed 4:am Forever was written in the aftermath of his split with TV presenter Fearne Cotton last year.

I wish the sun would never come, it's 4 AM and you are gone. I hope you know you're letting go, it's 4 AM and I'm alone

I Could Get Used To This: Pop/Rock Australian duo The Veronicas created this song. I first heard this song while searching for Gerard Way videos in youtube.com. I came across a fake "Frerard" video and it contained this song. I totally fell in love with the song the first time I heard it.

'Cause I know you're too good to be true, I must have done something good to meet you

Chasing Cars: The other day, while downloading this particular song in LimeWire, I came across a slideshow of Alicia and Mikey pictures in youtube. And this was the song! Haha! No reason, just felt like saying so. :)

Gary Lightbody, frontman of Snow Patrol, says it is the "most pure and open love song [he's] ever written." The phrase "Chasing Cars" came from Lightbody's Father, in reference to a girl Lightbody was infatuated with, "You're like a dog chasing a car, You'll never catch it and you wouldn't know what to do with it if you did."

(I ain't posting any lyrics... just listen to the song)

Cancer: Yup, the song that you can play in my blog. Everytime I listen to it, I just fall in love with the song all over again.

I just hope you know that if you say goodbye today, I'd ask you to be true. 'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you...

If you're going to ask about the title, it might be because 3 out of these five different subjects in this post is related to the punk-rockers from New Jersey, My Chemical Romance.

Carol Fest: Each school has it's own "contest" for the Christmas Season. St. James has its parol-making contest between the 1st-4th years, while Quezon City Science High School has its Carol Fest. Ours was held this afternoon. And our class's presentation was (in my words), a total mess-up. Can you believe it? I actually saw my dignity and Self-respect fly away from me as we performed. That was so humiliating. Congratulations to the sections who won (Go Darwin-3!)

My Chemical Romance: The last time I made an updatem you may read about a guy named Ronald whom I saw in the mall the day that I updated. Yepp, I had a totally huge crush on him at that time. Now, I've got this totally massive crush on someone else, Gerard Arthur Way or much more commonly known as Gerard Way (My Chemical Romance frontman). Yeah! I first saw his newly-dyed locks in myspace.com. And I saw them perform during SpikeTV's Scream Awards. Then, I thought he was totally cute! But, when I saw the "Welcome to the Black Parade" video, I developed this massive crush on him!

Anyway, last week. They reached number 1 in the MYX Hitchart. They're probably the first foreign band to reach number one for about 2-3 years now. So, Congratulations to My Chemical Romance. Hopefully, their next single (Famous Last Words) will do as well.

The Black Parade: The Black Parade is My Chemical Romance's latest album. It's composed of 13 tracks with one hidden track included (Blood, which was written by Gerard Way, Mikey Way and Ray Toro). In an interview, Gerard has mentioned that if My Chemical Romance was going to be remembered for years to come, it would be because of this album. This album was going to solidify My Chemical Romance and would be what would make us remember these punk-rockers for years to come.

Famous Last Words: Famous Last Words is the 13th track of the 3rd album and is my favourite song. It's really good! The video was shot back-to-back with their first single "Welcome to the Black Parade" which resulted in a car accident due to their exhaustion. Gerard broke all the ligaments in his foot :(

The video is very simple, yet, it's the most dark and dramatic our of all the videos that they've done. The video is set to air in America in January 2007 (January 22, 2007, apparently), and is already being aired in UK's MTV2. Watch out for their new video.

Off-campus: Our off-campus trips began in November but since I was too lazy to update, I can't remember a lot. Although, I do remember being nearly run-over by a car in UP and not caring. I just stared at the car. :)

That's about it. Anyway, since it's nearly our Christmas break, I'll try to update more.

P.S. I almost forgot to mention, Gerard Way was voted "Almighty King of Rock" beating out M.Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold and Serj Tankian of System of a Down in MTV2's "All That Rocks". Gerard won with an astonishing 63% of the votes. (No wonder I love him so friggin' much! Haha!)

I'll be posting Gerard pics in my next update. Watch out for that.

My blog desperately needs a new layout. -10/28/'06

Wow! I'm so proud of myself! I've managed to post two blog entries in one month! *claps for self* Anyway, here's my day.

Ara celebrated her birthday last tuesday (Oct. 24) so we decided to go out today. We had no idea where to go until last night. Anyway, we ended up circling SM North Edsa today. Her dad dropped us off at the Block and off we were.

As far as I can remember, everytime we would go out, we always end up watching a movie. However, she did not know what good movies were showing and she asked me if I wanted to see the sequel to the Grudge. For any normal person, that would've been fine. There's just one thing, I'm not normal, and I probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight if I watched it. I suggested watching "The Prestige" starring Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale. It would've been good, you know. Except for one problem... The movie was rated R-13 and we wouldn't be allowed inside unless we had proof we were 13 above... I brought my ID, she didn't. So, we settled for the Guardian. Yeah... Anyway, before we went to get our tickets, I SAW RONALD!!! WOOT WOOT!!! HAHA!!! GOD! THAT GUY IS SO FREAKIN' HOT!!!

Anyway, over the Ronald thing... We got to the mall at around 1.30 but the film was set to start at around 3.30... so, we ended up circling the mall

as for the post title, Ara and I counted the couples who were showing public displays of affection and we counted 94! yeah! haha! we started counting at around 3.00, went into the cinemas at 3.20 and left at 6.30... yeah!!! haha

basically, that was my day. Okay, maybe this was just an excuse to post the thing about ronald. haha!!

anyway, I gotta go, I still need to do my project in English and it's kinda hard to find. I hate virginia woolf!

bbye peeps!
