PASKUHAN with Abz :)

Normally, people would go to UST Paskuhan with their college friends and acquaintances, but I do just the opposite -- I went with my High school friends. And just like every night-out with them, we had so much fun. :)

Not that I hate my college friends, or I don't like being with them, because I do. It's just that it's been a tradition for us, Manila ABZ, to attend Paskuhan and sleep over in someone's condo after.

Sobrang daming tao, ang hirap maka-contact at ang hirap hanapin nung place sa field. Ang hirap tumapak sa manila paper ng my manila paper. ang hirap sumingit, mag-cr at ang hirap maligaw -- my annual Paskuhan Problems.
But despite those, I still arranged everything for ABZ. I posted sa group namin weeks before, even advertised it para mas nakakagana. I bought manila paper, mineral water, some chips, and chocolates. I coordinated kung sino pwedeng umampon samin and kung kaninong condo pwedeng mag-sleep over. and just like last year, sobrang sakit ng paa ko dahil sa pabalik-balik sa gate sa pag-sundo sa kanila kasi iba't ibang time sila dumating. The time and the effort -- but then worth it pa rin lahat.

The laughs. The reminiscing of old memories. The good conversations. The singing with the band. The fireworks. The pictures.  The long wait in KFC.The journey to Timog. The long walk. That madaling-araw meal.The horror movie. The few hours of sleep. And the missing USB. :)))
They're surely worth the pagod and the inis of setting up a get -together.

I dont know, but there's just a feeling that I feel that whenever I'm with them, everything odd fades -- and everything good shines like a dragon firework. :))

I love you guys.. sa susunod na Paskuha ulit.

Friends and other Painkillers

I don't know how they do it, but there are people in our lives, in mine especially, who never fails to just be there and love you all the way. During the sembreak, we had plenty of random dates and meet ups, we used to do this but not quite often because we're school busy.. but in those 2 weeks, it felt like time won't end.

It's the feeling that whatever happens, i'll be just fine because they are there. the comfort, the ease, the absolutely-no-judgment guarantee, that even with my make-up smudged or even if I fart out loud, or even if my hair doesn't look nice, and though I rant about the same things for several years, despite all the unlovely things about me and all the stuffs that I cannot do, we're still friends.

If the world is a big department store, i think FRIENDS are the best and the ultimate freebies that you get.
Lorraine, Trizian, Kim and Kimmie, you know I love you guys, i tell you that a lot.. so less the drama, I'm gonna tell you I miss you and I'll see you soon! :) <3

SEE US IN OUR NOT SO GLAMOROUS PHOTOS. :))

Mommy, Daddy and my Pink Tooth

I thank toothaches for moments like this. Mommy and Daddy taking me to the Dentist, isn't that sweet?

It was Sunday when my wisdom tooth started to give me pains. I took pain relievers until the next day. Tuesday came and the pain worsens. Mommy decided to take me to the dentist referred by my friend Trizian. We were in the car on the way to the clinic when all of a sudden a felt a cloud of appreciation in my heart. Yes. Haha.

I was last on the list so we have to wait in a long line of toothache and braces people. I was sitting between mommy and daddy. I was nervous, afraid, scared, anxious and terrified all at the same time.  I have always been afraid of Dentists, the odd metal and whatever instruments they stick inside people's mouths and the way they demand people to say 'aaaaaaaa' for 96 hours non-stop. Hahaha.I have never been comfortable being around medical people. Ironically, I feel threatened and scared. That is why I really appreciate mommy and daddy accompanying me to the clinic despite the fact that their daughter is an 18-year old grown up, living in Manila alone for 5 days a week. It may seem ridiculous, but to me, it's sweet. Right there, sitting next to them, on that horrible moment of my dental life, I felt thankful for having such sweet parents who never gets tired of being there for me. Once again, I felt like their little baby girl. And it's an indescribable feeling of being sandwiched by my parents love. And then all of a sudden, I felt thankful to a toothache that reminded me how blessed I am for having my parents around.

While we were waiting for my turn, Daddy keeps telling me how he had to undergo a surgery just to get rid of his wisdom tooth. You have no idea how my Daddy tells a story, he tells it very well, I can picture the scenes quite vividly! As what he usually does during medical matters like this, he's been scaring me, telling me that I would have to go through the same surgery because my Ate also did. I was all the more afraid. I gave him sweet punches and mild 'kurot'. HAHA.

I'm going to make the long story short, after the dentist saw what she has to see, and after seeing my dental X-ray,.. guess what? Dad was right. I would have to undergo the same surgery. There's something going on within my teeth. A certain tooth named 'Pinktooth' has been stuck under my gums all these years. My wisdom tooth has been preventing Pinktooth to grow and be a normal one. All these years he has been hiding under my gums just because wisdom tooth won't let him out, and that's quite unfair.. and painful in my part! Hence, the surgery.

I can't imagine that fateful day when that dentist opens my gums and do justice for my stuck tooth, that would be equally relieving and horrifying. I don't know how I'm gonna get through it. But one thing's for sure, as long as I got Dad on my side and Mom on the other, I've got nothing to be afraid of.

I am 18 and I'm brave. I can do this because mommy told me that I can. I will get through this because daddy taught me how to be strong.

It's just a tooth after all, A TOOTH!

Trizian's 18th: Sisters Reunited

October 8, 2011 at La Parilla Hotel.

My Sister, Trizian Gloria Lacson, turned 18. Last na sya na magdedebut sa Abz, sad. Anyway, Icanstill remember it quite vividly until now, this night was a super fun night. Dahil wala naman talagang boring kapag kasama ko sila. Sana kahit wala ng mag-dedebut maulit parin natin happy times like this. I miss you all!

My Blog: Revived :)

My Dashboard tells me that it was October 5, 1897 since I last updated my blog. Haha. :)
It's been so long, so what happened to me? My answer would be... I was busy fixing something.. while procrastinating a little bit.

(Wait, gusto ko mag-Filipino)

Sa totoo lang, kanina pa ako nag-iisip kung paano ko ipapaliwanag sa aking Dear Readers (assuming I have Readers) kung bakit 2 months akong tinamad. Let's face it, katamaran lang talaga ang dahilan, pero isama mo na rin ang ilang issue sa buhay ko na kinailangan ko munang ayusin bago ako makapag-isip muli ng tuwid.

I will be unfair to myself if I will narrate the whole story of my 2-month blogging refusal, that would be very sad and tiring. Because not everything should be shouted out to the whole world via internet, some things are better left unpublished.
But wait, although it will not be timely anymore, I will still blog about the happy, inspiring, exciting and thrilling stories that happened over the course of time that I wasn't posting, stories that are worth publishing and reading. I don't want your parents paying extra for electricity just because their child read a trashy blog posted by me. Chos. Haha.

Gear up for a List of Posts I would like to write in the following days.. or weeks. :)

Me and my friend Mechelle were on our way to Recto to Buy Eng Bee Tin Hopia, as requested by my dearest Ate. Hindi ko talga alam pumunta dun, naligaw pa kami ng konti. Sumakay kami ng Tricycle then MRT, tapos isang mahabang lakad. Pinag-lalaruan ko ung ID ko, as what I always do.. Hindi ko na sya napansin kasi we were busy trying to figure out which way to go.
Sobrang naliligaw na kami, hindi namin mahanap ung store.. edi naglakad-lakad kami.. tapos voila biglang may "Eng Bee Tin".. ayun, parang magic, sobrang saya ko. Sobrang saya talaga. Hahahaha.
Pasakay na kami ng jeep pabalik ng P.Noval nung napansin ko na wala na 'kong ID. :((((
Bakit nagyon pa??? :(((((
-magsesembreak na.
-ang hirap kumuha ulit..
 -hindi nag-papapasok sa Library ng walang ID.. may exam pa naman kami sa Ed Tech.:(((
-I'm going somewhere na kailangan ng Student ID. :((

I need my ID back.
Or atleast, get a replacement as soon as FRIDAY.. or else I'll be dead. :(
