Last May 28, 2008, at such an early ear-bugling moment, (2am) I, together with Beki, Aljohn, Kuya doodz, and Kuya jet, ate ballot and Penoy. Actually, only Kuya Jet and I ate ballot, the rest ate Penoy. I told Kuya Jet I wanted to eat ballot on one of our night laag/libre. It so happened during the Lumbia Kids' Summer Camp a ballot vendor came to cross our road. And since we were so darn interrupted of our sleep because of those "feeling-nice-voice-drunk-people" who took the microphone and rented the videoke machine up until 3 am, I bugged Kuya jet and others to take a break from trying to sleep and eat ballot or penoy instead. My convincing power is still good and within minutes, we were all eating.

I asked Kuya jet to teach me how to eat ballot. He first instructed me not to look at the inside and to partially open the shell and place a little bit salt. I followed as instructed but added vinegar. He then said I had to sip the juice. It tasted weird, a bit rotten and a bit not, I really can't comprehen what it tasted like. Then I slowly opened it half way. Kuya jet finished his ballot first, as I was struggling to gulp the huge chunk. I placed vinegar (a lot) and gulped/sipped the ballot. With in seconds, I coughed out the juice I sipped and to think, kuya jet was infront of me! I spitted out the vinegar and the remaining juice on kuya jet's hand because my throat can't stand the acidity of the vinegar! *(waaah! sorry kuya jet)* After which, I ate the entire chunk. It tasted like a normal egg. I didn't feel any feather or head at all. Maybe the egg that I chose was not that old or something although I am pretty much sure there was a black portion inside, I am just not sure if it was the chick.

The experience was nice and memorable. I had to spit on someone's hand to learn how to eat. (nyaha! ) Above it all, I am proud to say I ATE A BALLOT AND IT TASTED GOOD! thanks to Beki, Aljohn, Kuya doodz, and of course Kuya jet for accompanying me on this remarkable moment. haha

Don't let me go -

(sounds of crickets just stopped)

hahaha. It's been centuries since I last posted a real entry here. (exage) Nyahahahhaha!! I'm currently writing this as I struggle to cram into my head 21 theories about nursing for which we will be having an exam tomorrow! Right now, my head is aching really hard and my eyes are oh so tired... I need sleep but I must not. I need to review the theories for this exam is a one shot deal. I can't afford to mess-up. x_x

so what's up with me? hmmm... let's begin with studies. I'm an incoming third year student in nursing which means, instead of using AHSE as my course, it's now BSN. (weee!!) I'm having summer class (this week is our finals.) And I am super having a hard time coping with my RLE subject for I am getting low grades, I almost failed our final exams and I don't know what my current standing is. x_x Although I am a bit confident I will not fail, but for sure I will be receiving really low grades. (For which I am preparing myself? :D) Oh gosh, please pray for me. :c Then with my extra curricular activities, I am proud to say, I am highly active in KKP despite of my busy schedule and my demanding subjects. (*smug*) I'm starting to love my responsibilities in KKP. It's really different from LCLC as it's primary focus is social action, contribution and promotion. I realized, this is more of what I want and where I can do more. I love getting involved! With regards to my personal life, it's getting much complicated more and more. Although I am really glad that there's no major problem going on, but some minor unwanted events are happening still. Currently, I am concerned of the on-going increase of the number of "guys" I have hurt. I am trapped on staying to what I was 2 years ago, for every time I attempt to dress-up well and "lady-like", I sorta... kinda... attract "their" attention. I still am not ready for those stuffs really. I don't know why I am not ready but there's only one reason I could ultimately identify. That is, "I don't want to put a limit to myself." This is perhaps the greatest force stopping me from recognizing their efforts and their being. But I really am happy of what I am right now. :) And aside from that side of me, I'm finding new and wide range of friends because of KKP. I'm really enjoying my involvements there... It keeps the burning passion in me, and all the more I would want to consider a religious life. (eeekk!)

So that's pretty much what's going on with me. :) Life currently is stable and fine. It's manageable and exciting at the same time. I'm really glad I joined that immersion in Sumilao for that experience changed my definition of being happy. (I do wish and hope I will be able to find time to post an entry about my Sumilao experience. I've got a lot to share! time permits. :D)

till next post. (as if someone really visits my blog. haha)

Don't let me go -

you have been taged! thank you for opening. haha. before I begin, I tag every person who opened this blog entry. (I can see you, you know) so you can't escape. Don't worry, I shall be sending a personal message to you informing you that you were tagged. hihi. ^_^


Recall your childhood memories and list down 12 events that remind you of your childhood days.

12. Eating gummy bears and popping candies remind me of how I used to sneak these stuffs into our cart when we went to the grocery store when I was a kid and my mom wouldn't notice it. (sometimes. hehe)

11. Playing street games with the children in sumilao especially during late afternoons reminds me of my "appointments" every after school back in my elementary days. haha

10. I still watch cartoons. Nickelodeon, Disney, and Cartoon Network.

9. Jellyace. Haha. I've always loved these when I was a kid and upto now, I still find ways to eat this kind of food.

8. Plainly observing children and how they deal with the things that they do tickles the child in me.

7. I still do baby talk. I all the more do baby talk when someone communicates with me in the same manner.

6. Drinking milk before bed time. Although I could remember how I hated milk when I was a kid, it somehow tells me "how I wish I had this kind of milk." I had formula milk, it wasn't that enticing.. hehe.

5. junk foods! I remember how my mom scolds me for I would prefer junk foods over a proper meal. hehe

4. Disney music. hearing them all brings back the child in me.

3. Playing sports. I love/loved sports. I was a jack of all trade master of none back then... haha.

2. I have so many bedroom buddies. These stuff toy to small pillows to power puff pillow cases and bed sheets. haha. My room is like a room of a 10 year old kid. ;p

1. Having "kuyas". You see, I had a friend when I was still a kid who much like portrayed the role of being my kuya. (I have no real kuya). We would tickle each other as we lie in bed, he would lift me up and together we imagine that I am super(wo)man, we would chase each other around their house and he would pick-up fruits for me to eat up in a tree. Perhaps this explains my fixation to having a big brother.. ^_^

remember, you have been tagged!
