Alright! Project 365 - 2011, bring it on!
It’s gonna be hella hard to keep up with it, but it’ll be fun!
Wish me luck!
Because here in the Philippines, people of all ages are allowed to play with fireworks without the supervision of any medical professional.

What is up with mah lappy?
Remember when I told you my lappy screwed up right after finals? Well yeah, it’s been acting up the same way in the past couple of days. A simple system restore did the trick the first time, while the second time needed an additional shutdown-switch on. Now the third time it happened (which was just a couple of hours ago) the ways of fixing it didn’t work, so I brought it to a computer...

People will often say that their whole lives flashed before their eyes after they experienced a traumatic event. Perhaps it’s a bit morbid, but we think that sounds pretty incredible.
When Taylor McKnight started taking a photo a day on January 1st, 2004, he never imagined the project would not only serve as a way to remember a year, but also help him understand what was important...
Project 365
I’m really thinking of doing one for 2011. I wanna work on my photography skills (though first I’d have to get some proper ones first lol), and after following a couple of these projects and watching them progress from something simple to something awesome, it really inspired me to make one for myself.
On a deeper note, it’ll be a great way to document a part of my life and to...
Glad to be back on solid ground!
Back from the provinces (well actually yesterday, then I had to go out again!), and I have to say that this was the best Christmas thus far. I had a great time with the family and with relatives from both sides. What was really awesome about it was that we actually did a bunch of different things from our normal Christmas get togethers which brought all of us so much closer.
And Baguio? The cold...

Smell ya laterz, Tumblrheads!
Off to the provinces I go!
Man, I hope they have wifi internet LMAO!
Have a Blessed and Merry Christmas y’all!
Packing bags.
Well not really yet lol. I’ll be going to the provinces this Christmas weekend! It’s gonna be a bit different to how Barlis Christmas’ are spent every year.
First off to my dad’s province after a 4 hour drive, where we meet up with relatives and gamble. Yes, gamble haha.
Shortly after we’ll be heading off to my mum’s province which is another 4-5 hour drive,...
Two weddings, in a span of one week.
dead. They could at least try to change up the way of running the ceremony, or at least the reception part. I swear, both weddings could’ve been organized by the same person.
I remember one time, a person asked "What does...
The other said “It means ‘I Love You’ in dinosaur” :3
My mum is such a boss.
She made a new ‘recycling’ system for our house. There are two rubbish bins in each main area; one for plastic and one for paper. Everything else goes to the rubbish bin in the kitchen downstairs.
This means I have to walk ALL THE WAY DOWNSTAIRS to throw away a chocolate bar wrapper. Not complying equals lectures of indefinite periods of time.
Poop.
one-der replied to your post: Mixed emotions
As long as you gave it a good shot, things are fine as.
True, but I definitely know that I deserved a way higher grade than what he gave me. I’m just hoping that what he did was place what I got as a buffer grade, because he hasn’t finished computing everyone’s grades yet, or something haha. I’ll explain it in detail tomorrow...
Mixed emotions
My grades came out.
I dunno whether to be happy or pissed.
I passed everything (YAY), but there’s one grade which just isn’t right.
It screws up EVERYTHING.
I’m not gonna be ok till I sort this out with my teacher tomorrow.
But YAAAAAAAAAAAAY I PASSED EVERYTHING!

I swear, he sounds like a Krabby. lol
Grades come in tomorrow!
I’ve gotten some of them already, so far so good…

That awkward but epic moment when you and your...
I’ve only had a handful of those moments. Cherished every one of them.
I met a dude from Brazil on Omegle
Me: We really don't take notice in other sports that we're excelling in, like football.
Dude: Here it's just soccer or football, I don't know how you call it in the Philippines.
Me: Yeah we interchange between soccer and football haha
Dude: Why the Americans had to create soccer. That name it's unnecessary.
Me: Yeah they could've changed the name of American Football since they don't really use their feet.
Dude: Why didn't they put American Rugby? It's rugby with armor.
Me: LMAO! YES!
[High on air] ! and ?
There’s something that I’ve observed when it comes to the number of !s and ?s people use at the end of their sentences which pretty much dictates how they’re feeling.
! = Dead serious - “No!” !! = Frustrated - “No!!” !!! = I’m shouting in my head. - “No!!!” !*(10^n) = I’m actually not shouting in this sentence, just...

Over the past 6 years, our band has been through some of the most intense and incredible experiences of our lives. None of these things have been without trial. We’ve worked so hard to get to where we are and the fact that you are all still here…
Wait, what??
Taco Bell really isn't all that great.
It really isn’t.
Reject null hypothesis - I will pass statistics!
I still have 3 more days to wait till my grades come out, and of course the one class that I dread is my engineering statistics class. Like anyone else who who would, I took up the opportunity to rant on Facebook about this stupid class.
I got some enlightening replies, saying that our teachers curve the scores by lowering the passing percentage. The passing for this class is 60%, theirs got...
I fixed mah lappy
I IZ A ENGINEER!
In the middle of chatting, the screen died and I...
-blank screen-
Efer: Yo, is your screen better? Hahahaha
Me: If you receive this, buzz back.
*buzz*
Me: Ok...ummm
Me: I can't see my screen right now. I'm working on my lappy without any screen haha
Efer: hahahahahaha :))))))) without any screen?
Me: Ummm, who's this?
Me: If it's Sim, buzz once, if it's Efer, buzz twice, if it's anyone else, buzz three times.
*buzz*
*buzz*
Me: ...this is, Ef-
*buzz*
Me: Haha ok this isn't working. I can't bloody see anything.
Efer: =)))))))))))
Me: Can you just send me a text or something, whoever this is. hahaha

And it's OVER!
Woot all finals DOWN! Term 5 DOWN! Now I can RELAX (for 3 weeks, then the cycle begins again lol).
Contradictory to my happiness however, I came home to my lappy that was screwed up. I dunno what happened, but whenever I turn it on the screen doesn’t show any picture, let alone light up. Sounds and everything else is fine, just the screen. It’s temporarily ok for now though, coz...
Actually using logic to solve an exam on logic
Discrete Mathematics exam, DONE! I don’t wanna sound overconfident or anything, but it was hella easy. As in I barely even studied for this one (I mean, how could you quantitatively study stuff on logic? lol). It was pretty ironic too, because though it was a multiple choice exam on stuff mainly based on logic, we had to actually use logic to find out small patterns or nuances in the way the...

[High on air] Bus drivers and bus rides
If you’re a person who’s familiar with the roads of Manila, you can easily conclude that the bus drivers here are both amazing and terrifying.
Amazing in the sense that they really know how to estimate what spaces their buses can fit in and actually fit through them with about literally one inch between them and other vehicles or concrete walls, and get out without a scratch. In my...
