Yesterday was my student visa interview at the US embassy. Sadly, I wasn't given one. =( The damn consul's reason for denying me a visa was that he couldn't see my determination to study there.. that studying in the states was just my aunt's plan and was not really mine.. I was like.. how'd you know it wasn't my idea? Like hello!! He only asked me a few questions.. he didn't even look at my acceptance letter nor at my aunt's sponsorship papers.. when he asked me why I wanted to study there.. I told him that my aunt will be paying for my schooling there so I wanted to study there.. that was my main reason and, of course, I also wanted to learn more.. I know my answer wasn't that good.. OK, it was not good. but what did he expect me to say.. like.. "I want to study there so I could have a better future" kind of shitt..?!?

Yea, I felt bad about it. But I didn't feel depressed or whatever. just sad. haha. My dad said I could just go back to the states with a tourist visa and fix my student visa when I'm there already. I think that was what his boss's daughter did to study there.. *I even told the consul that I've been to the states twice already..but that didn't do any help..

I guess, I wasn't just destined to get one yesterday.. haaaaayyy..

But it's ok even if I don't get to study in the states.. I'm starting to like Assumption anyway.. I just hope I'd become a good CPA-Lawyer if I don't get to become a medical doctor.. :(( [I am/was hoping to get into medical school in the states].

OK, so much for that..I'll try to write more later..

US Escapade 2006

Edited:

First Stop: Delaware

Delaware is.. the first state. haha.. there was nothing much to see here.. but there's this place in Dover that based on their studies is the center of the universe.. isn't that cool?. It used to be a house but they've already turned it into a museum.. but we weren't able to go inside.. we just passed by it.. One thing I loved about Delaware is the shopping because they don't have sales tax.. I think it's the only state without sales-tax.. I shopped at the dover mall (Victoria's Secret, Old Navy, Billabong, Charlottle Russe) and in the Rehoboth Outlets(Ann Taylor, Coach). I was loaded because my aunt and her friends and my other aunts kept giving us money. I think I was able to get like $400.. haha! How lucky was I? But of course the money's gone now.. haha.. and I'm back to being broke! :(

Second Stop: Maryland

Maryland=Naval Academy=LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF CUTE GUYS.. =)

I didn't wanna leave the academy because of them.. hehehe!

I shopped here too!!! :)

Third Stop: Florida

Damn.. i loved florida.. except for the super duper hot temperature.. Disneyworld, Epcot Center, Go-karts, THE COCOA BEACH, Indian River, Kennedy Space Center.. We all went to all those places.. i had a lot of fun here.. We were here for 6 days.. The beach house where we stayed in was really nice and BIG!.. it was just beside the Indian River.. so we went fishing and swimming there.. We also went to Cocoa beach.. I really liked it.. though there weren't a lot of people.. I wore a bikini for the very first time. haha! BTW, the road travel to Florida from Annapolis,MD was about 16 hours.. ang haabbbaaa..

Fourth Stop: New York

Walang sinabi ang buildings sa Ayala.. :p hehe

I shopped at Fifth Avenue, Barney's, Macy's... just kidding.. :p

New York was so cool.. :) I had so much fun here. We went to NY City and took a city tour bus that roamed around New York City- Central Park, 5th Avenue, Chinatown.. etc.. It was very cold that day so I wasn't really able to enjoy the city tour.. My cousin Ark took me to the board walk in Staten Island where a scene from "How to Lose A Guy In 10 Days" was shot.. and he also took me to the staten island mall..but I didn't shop 'cause I didn't him to wait..'cause it takes me a decade to decide on what to buy..

Fifth Stop: Washington

Boring. Boring. Boring.

Sixth Stop: Virginia

Boring. Boring. Boring.

Seventh Stop: New Jersey

~~Don't wanna talk about it..~~ I liked marriot hotel's indoor pool and whirpool spa, my Ann Taylor dress and my Gold peeped-toe pumps. :)

Can't think of a title..

2006-05-12T00:38:00.000+08:00

I have to go to my aunt's office this afternoon to help her with her work. It's open registration today that's why they've got a lot of work to do. I'll just be filing and alphabetizing documents anyway so it's not gonna be really hard. I 've already done a lot of filings/work there. The last time I helped, which was last Tuesday, I worked for about 3 hours.. hmm.. maybe I should ask for a pay.. hehe.. $8/hr.. hmm... But my aunt pays for my shopping so.. hindi na lang... haha..

I wanna have a job if I'm gonna study here.. maybe I'll work as a cashier in McDonald's or a waitress in a Chinese restaurant (para may TIP).. hehe.. :))

I wanna go back to the outlets 'cause I've still got money to burn.. haha.. and I wanna buy a new dress for the practice dinner.. tsss.. I didn't know that we still have to attend that dinner that's why I only bought one dress..

Coolness..

2006-05-10T10:08:00.000+08:00

Today was my college placement test and I was so nervous because I didn't study. I was just watching TV and reading my magazines yesterday. My tita told me to study, even my kid brother kept telling me to study, but I didn't.

Fortunately, the test wasn't hard. I found it really easy actually.. except for the reading comprehension.. that was really confusing.. I already saw my scores as soon as I finished the exam but I didn't know what the passing scores were.. so I still had to wait for the proctor to approach me. I got 89 in reading comprehension, 101 in sentence skills, 103 in Arithmetic and 84 in Algebra. When the proctor came to me, I immediately asked if I failed ('cause I thought I did) and she said that I didn't and I did great and that my scores were really high. She also said that I can take college level subjects already. Yey!

I will take Applied Clinical Math and Critical Reading and Thinking subject (I just needed four more points to be excempted from taking CRT.. sayang..) and some science subjects this fall. yehey! :))

Confused

2006-05-05T08:49:00.000+08:00

I am so confused right now. I don't know where to study- here in Delaware or in the Philippines..

When we had a family reunion last Christmas in California my aunt offered me to study here in the States. She said she was gonna sponsor my schooling and all so my parents allowed me. But when we saw how expensive the international student tuition fee was, I just decided to study in the Philippines. So I am currently enrolled at Assumption College (Accounting). I've already paid my tuition fee for the semester and I've already bought 4 pairs of uniform ('cause I don't have classes every Wednesday). But now my aunt wants me to study here again, because the college's director is willing to give me a scholarship to study (Nursing) here. We just have to pay my first year's tuition and if I'm doing good in school, my scholarship will be granted. I am now scheduled to take the placement test on Tuesday. I called my mom 2 days ago and told her about it. She wasn't exactly happy/excited about it. She said she'll gonna miss me if I study here. She even said I have to come home (in the PI) every summer, christmas and semestral break. haha! That's crazy.. :Þ She also asked me about my 18th birthday.. she was like "Pano yung debut mo? Uuwi ka dito?!" hehe.. I know my mom's really excited for my debut..

If you ask me, it's really better to study nursing here than in the PI because you could be a registered nurse in just 3 years(if you don't fail/drop any subject) and in the PI it'll take you about 5 years to become one. And here, I don't need to learn Rizal anymore. I don't have to take Theology anymore. I just have to take the really IMPORTANT subjects. No more P.E... No more community service. I don't have to waste my time studying things that are not really related to my course. But even if I study here I don't think I'll be completely happy because my mom's far from me. :( I don't wanna be away from my mom 'cause I always depend on her. I don't think I can live and study without her.. Now I don't know what to do..

If I decide to study here, I have to be back this August to prepare for the fall semester but if I didn't do well in my placement test, I have to be back in June to take summer classes. Aaarrrgghhh.. I really don't know what to do...

Anyways, I wasn't feeling good this afternoon because of cramps so my cousin gave me tylenol. She told me to take two but I was kind of hesitant to take two for the fear of being "high" but she's a nurse.. she should know that.. so I just followed her.. haha..

We had dinner at Dover Downs Hotel. It was a buffet. But I only ate a little like I always do.. I've already stopped from eating rice since April 2 but I've only lost 2 pounds since then.. tsss.. I guess I also have to stop eating chocolates and drinking sodas now to lose more weight.. haaayy.. I wanna be skinny..

I'm in New York

A Day in a Life of.. A Couch Potato

2006-04-04T15:33:00.000+08:00

It's been two weeks since graduation and I haven't done anything productive yet. I once went out with my girlfriends to celebrate my 17th birthday and I also once went to Assumption to buy uniforms.. but besides those.. nothing. nada.

I usually wake up at around 11am everyday. I eat my brunch, watch TV, take a shower, sleep, eat dinner, watch TV till 2am and sleep. I wanted to do something productive like painting my room but my mom didn't allow me to. She said she'll just hire someone to do it. I also can't start playing tennis because I'll be leaving in 5 days. haaaaayyy..

2 days ago, I got really bored so I started packing my luggage. I know it was a bit early but.. hehe.

I've been a couch potato since the start of the summer break. All I do everyday is watch TV. I have watched Mean Girls on HBO thrice in 5 days. I watch ETC shows twice- the regular showing and the replay. I've also started watching the Korean Soap Operas in Arirang, you know the ones with the English and Spanish subtitles. haha! And I've only missed 1 episode of Princess Lulu (when I was out with my friends). Ayayay.

I miss watching Korean Movies. My favorite Korean movies would have to be My Sassy Girl and 100 Days with Mr. Arrogant. I love those movies. The stories are funny and the casts are really cute. :D

I love Leslie O. <3

2006-03-25T20:24:00.000+08:00

Wow. Thank you, Leslie, for this wonderful collage. I never had the chance to tell you how lucky and thankful I am to have you as my bestfriend.. Thank you for the friendship. Thank you for everything. Sorry din sa lahat ng nagawa ko. Salamat Leslie sa lahat! :)

I'm a Cam Whore

2006-03-25T09:24:00.000+08:00

Haha.. as usual, i got bored again.. i didn't know what to do last night so I got my make-up kit and started making my face up..haha..i followed Bobbi Brown's makeup guide..then i took pictures of myself.. sorry na.. peace..

The 'no make-up' make-up.

I'm Just Bored

2006-03-22T18:45:00.000+08:00

2 more weeks and I'm off to the States again. This time it's just going to be me and my lil' brother, we're going to the East Coast this summer. My Tita, who lives in Delaware, said that we're going to Florida, New York, New Jersey and to some nearby states. Our flight is on April 9, Northwest Airlines via Japan to Detroit to Washington. (yess.. ang dameng stopovers.) It's going to be a 24-hour flight because of the stop-overs and all. And since we are both minors, we are going to be accompanied by someone from the airline, a stewardess perhaps- a +$90 to the regular airfare.

Actually, this trip ~~destroyed~~ ruined my whole summer plans. Here is the list of things that I was planning to do this break:

1. Learn how to play Tennis

2. Paint my room Hot Pink

3. Continue my Piano lessons

4. Go to the beach (I'm still going to the beach.. in Florida! yey!)

5. Learn how to speak Korean

6. Learn how to cook

7. Rest! rest! rest!

8. Manood ng Hale gigssss (wahhh.. I haven't seen Champ for the longest time!)

By the way, have you seen Hale's Nescafe commercial? Rar. Ako na lang dapat yung babae don.. 'May Nescafe 3-in-1 pa kayo?' haha!

Oh well, I guess I can always do these stuff some other time.

Congratulations Seniors Batch '06

Yesterday, March 19 Sunday, was my graduation and my 17th birthday. I was happy but sad at the same time. Happy because it was my 17th birthday and I had finally graduated from high school but it was sad that my friends and I would not be seeing each other as frequent as before. My few real friends are my treasures. And I will be missing them very much. It was also sad because I have to leave St. Paul Pasig now. St. Paul's has been my second home for the past 4 years. That school's very special to me because I met my friends there and it taught me about lots of things in life. I'm definitely gonna miss St. Paul.

Congratulations Seniors! *hugs*

My family and I celebrated my 17th birthday/graduation at Rockwell. It was kind of boring actually, we just ate dinner and watched a movie, which we do almost every week. We had dinner at Burgoo and watched Amanda Bynes's "Shes the Man". My parents got me Canon Digital iXus zoom as a graduation/birthday gift. I also asked for a new phone (fyi: I've had my Nokia 3650 since I was in second year) but they didn't buy me one.. haha.. poor me.

These photos were taken using my new digi cam!
