La la la la la la la la . . .
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away"
Your Seduction Style: The Charmer |
You're a master at intimate conversation and verbal enticement.
You seduce with words, by getting people to open up to you.
By establishing this deep connection quickly, people feel under your power.
And then you've got them exactly where you want them! |
You Are 12 Years Old |
12
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.
13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.
20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!
40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.
|
You Are A Realistic Romantic |
You are more romantic than 60% of the population.
It's easy for you to get swept away by romance...
But you've done a pretty good job keeping perspective.
You're still taken in by love poems and sunsets
You just don't fall for every dreamy pick up line! |
You Should Try Bungee Jumping |
Can you take the plunge?
The true test of an extreme sports junkie!

Poetry to My Ears
Love Is...
(Brian McKnight ft. Vanessa Williams)
Poetry can mean anything to anyone. For me, I really don't have an exact definition for poetry. It can mean everything to me: sentimental, happy, personal, sad, optimistic, and so on and so forth. But I can say that I associate more with sentimental and personal poetry. Why is that, you may ask? Well, if I were the one who was writing a poem, it would be based on my mood and emotions at that particular moment. If I were the one writing the poem, (cheesy as it may sound) it would be coming from my heart. I think this rush of emotions and feelings is what inspires the writer to write. Previous experiences also give them something to ponder on and later write about. Having said that, I believe that poetry (or any other kind of literature) says a lot about the writer.
Like poetry, love doesn't have a universal definition. Every one has their own definition for it to go with their mood, or whatever. In other words, it's personalized.
This song is poetry to my ears. The reason I chose this song for this assignment is because I felt that not only I can relate to it, but every body else in this class, in this school, and everyone else around the world. For sure, one way or another, each of us has felt love - giving love and receiving it - may it be from a boy-girl relationship, friendships, or from family. I know that most of the songs out there are associated with love and relationships, and I think it [love] just comes naturally. People don't normally do anything to make it happen. It just happens. And sometimes it will take forever to explain it, while others are left speechless.
I was listening to this song two nights ago and the lyrics struck me (not that I never really paid attention to it), but as I was reading it, it made me think. I am really passionate about life and love, in general, so any books, poems, or anything at all that's related to these two topics are really interesting for me. So, as I was reading the lyrics, I thought, "wow, love is really powerful and it can do a lot of stuff. It can either make us, or break us. For some, it can mean a feeling of bliss, while others try to put together the bits and pieces of their broken heart like a puzzle." Funny, love is almost an oxymoron. Actually, it is an oxymoron. Anything you can say about it, interchange it and it would still hold the truth.
The lyrics of this song really have a significant message and a deeper meaning to it, just like poetry. And that's what makes the read worthwhile - just like love: “it doesn't make the world go 'round. It's what makes the ride worthwhile.”
It's true: Love conquers all. But it remains a mystery.

Life is GOOOOOOOOOOOD!
"If you love someone, put their name in a circle; because hearts can be broken, but circles never end."
"Life is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!"
Well...not really. It hasn't been treatin me well these past couple of weeks. It just keeps getting better! (in a sarcastic way, y'know) I get a sh*tload of work for every course (well not really, but yeah w/e) and they just keep dumpin all those ASSignments on us. I DON'T effin care if its a mini ASSignment or a bigas*s project. I still have to work my butt off. It's bullcrap sometimes. They give us work and we learn practically nothing from it. It's those kind of work that wasn't really prepared for the course, rather it's their for a "fill-up"...incase we have nothing to work on for the moment. Goodness. Crap i tell you.
Is this all I can blab about here? Seems like it. Try reading my previous posts and it sounds similar to each other. GodHelpMe. I'm stuck in this nonsense routine of mine. Ugh. This effin' sucks. I feel like such a Loser. Am I a Loser? No, I'm not. I'm a Soldier. Toy Soldier. WhatTheHell. I don't know what I'm saying. Whatever.
Life is bugging me. I don't know anymore. Aaahhhhhhyyy wanna scream my lungs out. I'm gonna go crazy if I don't get a new hobby. I need to do something odd. Something I've never done before. Of course, it has to be legal. Ohwhatthehell. This is all because of SCHOOL. Geez, if I was smart enough, I wouldn't go to school...but then again, I'm not. So....I feel like im talkin to myself here. HAHAHA. Crazy crazy crazy...im going crazyyyyyyyyy.
[(inhale-exhale)Ok na ko....]
So....these are some of the reasons why I wasn't able to blog for....I dont even know anymore. But yeah...::
a) I was BUSY. School stuff, y'know.
b) Again. I was BUSY. If I was not doing my homework, I was washing the dishes.
c) The LazyBug bit me. Well, yeah. Honestly, 2++ hours of Math homework alone. Who wouldn't be exhausted??
d) My Weekends, you may ask? Well.. I wake up late, for one. I bum around the house for quite some time if I wasn't talking to Allan. I go out with my family. Then there goes my day. Nightime comes, I'm really tired, hungry, and tired. I eat, do some other stuff like clean n stuff, then drag myself half-asleep to my room. Drop on my bed. zZzZzZ.
So there. Good enough, yeah? =)
[Put on my excited hat]
Yay! I'll be going to the
Canadian International Auto Show on Thursday! I had so much fun last year. It was tiring
kasi dami nilakad. The place was HUGE, man.
PlaceS pala. I'm so excited! Imma bring the cam so i can take pictures of the HOTTAH cars! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Anywho...that's basically the only highlight of the week. Err. Had a bad Math test earlier. Garr. First Math quiz. Not too good. I promise I'll do better on the next one. Before I take the unit test. =( Oh btw, I have this "mini" ASSignment for English wherein we have to pick a song, and explain how it is "poetry to my ears". I haven't picked a song yet...any ideas?? TAG me! =)
"Dun dun dun, dun dundun dun dun. Can't touch this" Haha I watched Sharktale 2 days ago. I know I'm such a loser.
Ngayon ko alng pinanuod. Haha. It was funny. I don't think I can really compare it to Finding Nemo coz the story is different from each other. I guess Sharktale has a lesson tagged to it, except they conveyed it in a lighter way. Finding Nemo is funny as well as there's a meaning behind the story, but it's a little bit more on the serious side. That's MY opinion. They're both good movies. =) I'll give them both an A. =) Sharktale has a bonus: Will Smith. I love that dude. He's so funny without even putting any effort. Fresh Prince of Bell Air! Best Show ever!=) Anyway, I gotta go find some interesting songs in my rack and analyze it. Poetry is Music. or..is it the other way around? Hah! Love u guys!
Shoutout to: everyone! and everyone who reads my *ahem*pathetic*ahem* blog. Hehe. Peace.

Diandra's New Do
Minsan, nakakainis magmahal. Bigay ka nang bigay pero kulang pa rin. Magpapakatanga ka, iiyak, ikaw ang iiwas, pero ikaw din ang masasaktan. Hintay ka nang hintay, pero tangina, ikaw din ang iiwan.
I got a haircut today! =) Haha! That's the only highlight of the day. Lol. I was scared it wouldn't look good on me. Well...
ok lang naman pala. It's not that bad. Saw this sa magazine. The girl looked a lot prettier with it though. HAHA.
asa pa eh. Anyway....all i ate today is pandesal and cheese. I've been eating carbs carbs carbs carbs! hayayay...
tabachoi ko na. Haha. Ohwell. Sarap eh. Been addicted to KD [Kraft Dinner]. I think I've been eating it for the past 2 weeks haha! maygad. Pandesal
naman ngayon! What's next??
Tomorrow is school time again. I LOVE SCHOOL!...not. garr. Marketing's alright..its fun. Leadership's cool too [we're going to do grade 8 retreats! weeee] but Eglish and Math?! goodness. these two courses will KILL me. forserious. Tomorrow, I have to get my ISU from my History teacher. I hope I did good on it. I'm so anxious for my report card!! I have an upcoming proj for Marketing, and I've done it before coz I had my teacher now in grade 9 so she's giving the same mini project--Me, Myself, and I. Too bad I already trashed my old one. Ohwell. That's fun to do anyway, and powerpoint's not difficult to use.
Haaaaay. I feel sleepy
na. I should sleep early tonight. Hmm let's see....10pm? Hah! Yea, that's early for me. Honestly, I can't sleep early. My earliest would be 11. Got used to sleeping late, I guess. Ohwell, I'm gonna go and read my book now. Take care ya'll. Don't forget to drop me a line or two ;) Love ya'll!

New Look + New Semester
In your life, you meet people. Some you never think about again. Some, you wonder what happened to them. There are some that you wonder if they ever think about you. And then there are some you wish you never had to think about again. But you do.
The site's got a new look! I just did this last night (not the layout ha). I got the layout from FSDesigns. I thought it was cute! =) "Until the day I die, I'll spill my heart for you" awww! haha =) Anyway, I think I'm going to be keeping this template for quite a while because I don't think I'm going to have the time to look for a new one and change and edit and stuff. This one will do, nice and clean.
New Semester; today was the start of our 2nd sem. Yea I know, it's kinda stupid how it started on a Friday. Ohwell. We didn't really do much today. All my classes are okay. First, I have Marketing. I'm really looking forward to that class. I think it's going to be a fun sem! Next I have English. It was okay too. I got lost pa kanina when I was looking for the room. It said in my sched that the room is in 341...but really it was in 349! Good thing I saw this girl Stacey that was also in my class. After that I have Leadership/Theology[again]. Yes, the best class ever. It was weird when we all came into the room, coz the first two classes were new, then come 3rd period, room 328, again! That's my only block class since that class runs throughout the whole year kasi it's half Leadership and half Theology. That's the only class that we did a little bit of work on. Leadership theory. The teacher wasn't even there, so we had a supply teacher. Then I had lunch (finally!) I saw Judy on the hallway, and thank goodness she also has my lunch. If not, I dont know who I'm gonna eat with! Everybody has 3a or b lunches! Only my class (i think) has 3c. So most of the people in the caf are grade 9's! eek. Anyway, Judy told me that her sched got shifted and we don't have the same Math class anymore. She told me that that Math class was cancelled. "What?!?" I freaked and panicked! So we went to guidance and I asked my counselor if I still have the same Math class. And thank God she said "Yes." [phew!] I would die if my sched shifted! I really need Math to be my last period coz I always need the extra time at the end to finish up during tests, and my teacher's a really good teacher. He explains the lesson well. Hopefully he's not a hard marker. So there. I am so scared for Math. I have to do really good. I'd probably switch my Calculus next year to Data Management. My math teacher was talking about it earlier in class, and I don't think I can take it since I'm really bad at Math. It's my worse subject ever. =(
After School; I was trying to look for Ms. Vella, my History teacher to get my ISU from her. BUT she already left. garr. Ohwell, I guess I'll have to go on Monday then. garr. I really wanted to know what I got on that project!! I asked this girl from my class last sem and she said she got perfect! I'm anxious to know my marks. I wonder when they're going to give out our report cards. Hmm....
Anyway, after Justin, Shane, Raymand, and I went to the mall, since they missed their bus anyway. We went to Bubble Tease and stayed there until like 3:10. Then we walked to the bus station to catch my 3:15 bus. I came home at around 3:30. Now, I'm here typing and drinking my yummy Yop [Yoplait]. Yea, it's a yogurt drink. =) Anyway....I really have nothing to do right now coz I don't have any homework [yet!] weeeeeeeeeee! I'll just probably read my book or surf..whatever. Oh btw, I've already uploaded our pictures from Christmas and New Year, and you can look at them -->here<--
Well, 'til the next one. <3
**Shoutout to my good friend Cherribelle! It's her birthday today--Feb. 4, 2005! Happy Birthday girl, I miss you a lot!! *mwah!* Love ya!

Just Some Random Quizzes I Took
Love is missing someone when you're apart, but somehow feeling warm inside because you're close in heart. -Kay Knudsen
To start the month off... =)
 | Love-a-Lot Bear
You love to take care of others and people love being around you because you make them feel appreciated. You are very sweet and soft-spoken. You are also a romantic and consider yourself an excellent matchmaker, so you tend to be a bit nosy. But everyone still considers you the sweetest person they know. |
