ugh. how ironic.

31 May

remember the last time i posted something about the common cold [sickness] and etc.?
yeah, it WAS yesterday[in the wee hours of the morning, if i might add. haha].
and guess what happened?
———– dum, dum, dummmmm!!!
i got sick that same day!!! :( (
i caught the common cold [i think] accompanied by the ever lovable runny nose!

all throughout the morning that day, i was feeling great! i felt as healthy as ever, i was even being my lil’ ol’ cheerful self, annoying people here and there..hahaha
but then, at approximately 5:15pm on May 30,2009, i started sneezing!!!
emmegawd!!!
and from there, my nose got stuffy, i sneezed more, my throat swelled and felt like the Sahara desert with all it’s rodents packed up from North Africa and moved and made home in my throat.

wanna take a look?
here’s how my throat feels like right this very moment. AAAARGGGHH!!!!!!

gawd! i hate getting sick!!!!!!!!
it just makes me feel so darn useless, dirty, and itchy in more places than one.
and no matter how i do the “mind over matter” crap, i still feel like i got trampled on all over by a gigantic bulldozer.

uggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. :( (

my nose is so full of snot, i have to unload it in the bathroom again.. ugh.
pardon me for being too blunt about my bodily fluids, i’ve no time for “polite” rants.

ughhhhhhhhhh. darn it! i’ve to go now.

my head can’t stand the radiation and is throbbing.
my nose can’t stop leaking.
and i feel sOOOOOOOO much like SHIT,
the kind that is just “plopped” on the side of the road.
you know, normal, dirty, useless shit.

ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!! can’t stand this.
grrr.

during these times, ignorance is NOT bliss.

29 May

These are GENERAL infos only..not specifically about the AH1N1 virus.

————————————————————————————————————————————-

What is influenza (flu)?

Influenza (flu) is a viral infection. People often use the term “flu” to describe any kind of mild illness, such as a cold or a stomach virus, that has symptoms like the flu. But the real flu is different. Flu symptoms are usually worse than a cold and last longer. The flu usually does not cause vomiting or diarrhea.

Most flu outbreaks happen in late fall and winter.

What causes the flu?

The flu is caused by influenza viruses A and B. There are different strains, or types, of the flu virus every year.

What are the symptoms?

The flu causes a fever, body aches, a headache, a dry cough, and a sore or dry throat. You will probably feel tired and less hungry than usual. The symptoms usually are the worst for the first 3 or 4 days. But it can take 1 to 2 weeks to get completely better.

It usually takes 1 to 4 days to get symptoms of the flu after you have been around someone who has the virus.

Most people get better without problems. But sometimes the flu can lead to a bacterial infection, such as an ear infection, a sinus infection, or bronchitis. In rare cases, the flu may cause a more serious problem, such as pneumonia.

Certain people are at higher risk of problems from the flu. They include young children, pregnant women, older adults, and people with long-term illnesses or with impaired immune systems that make it hard to fight infection.

How is the flu diagnosed?

Your doctor will ask you about your symptoms and examine you. This usually gives the doctor enough information to find out if you have the flu, especially if many cases of a similar illness have occurred in the area and the local health department reports a flu outbreak.

In some cases, the doctor may do a blood test or take a sample of fluid from your nose or throat to find out what type of flu virus you have.

How is it treated?

Most people can treat flu symptoms at home. Home treatment includes resting, drinking plenty of fluids, and taking medicine to lower your fever.

If you think you have the flu, your doctor may be able to give you medicine that can make the symptoms milder. But you need to start taking it within 2 days of your first symptoms.

Can the flu be prevented?

You can help prevent the flu by getting the flu vaccine every year. The best time to get the vaccine is in October or November, just before the start of flu season. You can get the vaccine as a shot or in a spray that you breathe in through your nose.

Almost anyone over 6 months old can have the flu vaccine. The vaccine is especially important for people who are at higher risk of problems from the flu, including:

  • Children 6 months through 4 years of age.
  • Adults ages 50 and older.
  • Adults and children who have long-term health problems or an impaired immune system.
  • Women who will be pregnant during the flu season.

The flu vaccine is also recommended for health care workers and anyone who lives or works with a person who is at higher risk of problems from the flu. Your doctor can help you decide if the flu vaccine is a good choice for you.

The vaccine usually prevents most cases of the flu. But even if you do get the flu after you’ve had the vaccine, your symptoms will be milder and you’ll have less chance of problems from the flu. You cannot get the flu from the flu vaccine.

meows and ruffs

27 May

my heart throbbed in pain unceasingly.

WHAT??

i can’t even dare to believe they came from the melon that rests on mi shoulders.

oh gawd.

where did all my so-called “creativity” go?

blech.

“psst. give yourself a break, S, it did just pop out of thin air and leak out, you know.. it’s not like you REEEEALLY gave it your best shot. try again. and this time, put your heart and soul into it.”

May 27, ’09

daaaaaang.

i SHOULD have been somewhere else right about now.

but instead, subjugation and unrequited loyalty and “utang-na-loob” imprisons me here,
inside my personal “purgatory” (if there exists such).

blech.

boredom and loneliness torture the hell out of me.
and the situation deems more than plain suffering from me.

ya know why? know why? lemme humor you.

this should have been a FUN-filled day, considering what today IS.

but instead . . . ugh.

i got stuck here, without anyONE to talk to, without nothing to do, and without any purpose or anything planned for today . . . AT ALL.

zero.

nada.

kaput.

ugh!!!!!

never mind.

at least i have the internet.
thank goodness for the triple doubleyah..

at least i get to waste the whole day doing something other than moping, grumbling, and ranting to myself.

at least with the internet, i get to joyously mope, grumble, and rant to other people online.
and i get to annoy other people, too.. that’s a great PLUS.
bahahahaha!! :) )

i know, i know. i’m being mean.. hahaha
well, at least i get to SHARE this pathetic day with the cyberworld..
sharing is good, right?

hahaha.

good luck justifying that.

anyway.. i’m blabbing excessively AGAIN.
well, i guess THAT is my trademark. so, it’s not something new to you guys now. :)

thanks for dropping by my uneventful page..

be back for more rants.. hahaha :) )

have a nice day! :D

or what’s left of it, that is..

*sigh*

ugh.

now i REALLY have to kick it up a notch and catch up as fast as i can with every single dang thing that i got on mi list for this summer.

daaaaang.

it’s like when a kid gets told his dear ol’ santi claus isn’t well worth the wait that fateful eve coz he ain’t a comin.

it cuts deep, mann.

well, suck it up, S!
time bends for no one.
not even for a gorgeous, drool-worthy being like you. *cough* [ROFL! hahaha]

the hellion’s amour

8 Dec
a poem i made for my friend’s homework about idioms (or what my friend and i call “idiots”). it was inspired by a not-so-unpopular story. you might be able to guess after a line or two. it’s not that hard to catch. :)
—–start——
a long , long time ago, i thought
a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
but now that i’ve gathered what i would have not,
come hell or high water, i’d fight for us.

sometimes, it may seem
cut the mustard, i cannot.
still, in the fight for your right,
i will succeed, doubt me not.

It’s a cock and bull story
of how we’ve come this far.
This might crack someone up,
‘coz it was close but no cigar.

we were at the parking lot back then,
your scent hit me like a truck.
well, let’s cut to the chase,
i instantly fell, like a scmuck.

I was about to go on a frenzy,
but i didn’t know what you did to me.
I was about to foam at the mouth,
but i took off, i did flee.

took a chance i did then,
and came back after the hunt.
i knew i was hell in a handbasket,
i should give myself a hard punt.

still, i took the risk,
a big leap at that.
i made friends with you,
took a bunny out of a hat.

then you knew what i am,
what we were,despite all warning.
you told me you didn’t care
about any of my shortcoming.

Down to the wire it will be,
i told myself it could be.
such a thing of beauty, such happiness
could not be for me.

i’m bad to the bone,
such a horrifying monster.
i’m wanting elvis to leave the building,
i want this all to be over.

i don’t want to put you in danger.
i love you too much to give that to you.
but this cloud don’t have a lining in silver.
if it’s not one thing, it’s another.

ergo, i have to let you go.
lend me your ear, let sleeping dogs lie.
we can’t continue, my dear,
or else you all shall die.

this is my farewell,
my last word and goodbye.
i love you, irrevocably.
in your hands, my heart will eternally lie.
—–end——
what d’ya think? i know, “amateur”, right? yeah, well.. no need to rub it in. hehe *kidding

The Moon

13 Dec

Okay.

Tonight IS the very night that I’ve seen the moon shine it’s brightest.

And indeed, it has.

Never before have i really seen its luminescence as intensified as it had been predicted to be true tonight.

Well done, astronomy.

Disappoint me, it has not.

Anyway . . .

With Rob P. singing Never Think passionately in my playlist, i couldn’t shove the feeling of utter yearning to write in my mediocre and virtually empty blog.

Now, what to write? What to write?

hmmm..

well, apart from the fact that i was immensely irritated and annoyed by the horrifying truth that exams are nearing AND i still am not i the “studying mood”, i am deeply frustrated with the in-your-face fact that i am not getting any younger AND i still don’t have anything worthy of being termed as an “accomplishment”.

A full moon might have helped shed some light in my, almost on a daily basis, comically nonsense psyche.

Surprisingly yet contrarily so, (brace yourself. sarcasm coming . . .) it has been of REAL help taking me to nostalgia, giving me ideas of what i could have done and have been doing if i were passionate enough with life, etcetera, etcetera . . .

what then is the silver lining on this sudden realization o’ mine?

hmmm.. i have yet to acknowledge that though. (Maybe when I’m past depression and resentment for my lost youth, then i will have the time to ponder on this one. hmm.. maybe.)

for the mean time, i will just settle myself in a comfy chair, with American Mouth chanting Flightless Bird in my iPod, with a cup of hot coco in my hand, and engross myself with the beauty of the silvery white , bright Moon.

L.O.V.E. 911

14 Dec
Every girl dreams that one day she will find someone that does these things for her. even the smallest action can have the BIGGEST impact in someones life.

• give her one of your t-shirts to sleep in.
• leave her cute text notes.
• kiss her in front of your friends.
• tell her she looks beautiful.
look into her eyes when you talk to her.
• let her mess with your hair.
• touch her hair.
• just walk around with her.
• FORGIVE her for her MISTAKES.
look at her like she’s the only girl you see.
• tickle her even when she says stop.
• hold her hand when you’re around your friends.
be the one to take her hand, don’t make her reach for you
be the one to call her, don’t make her always call you
• when she starts swearing at you, tell her you love her.
let her fall asleep in your arms.
• get her mad, then kiss her.
• tease her and let her tease you back.
stay up all night with her when she’s sick.
• watch her favorite movie with her.
kiss her forehead.
• write her letters.
• let her wear your clothes.
• when she’s sad, hang out with her.
let her know she’s important.
• let her take all the photos she wants of you.
• kiss her in the pouring rain.
when you fall in love with her, tell her.
• and when you tell her, love her like you’ve never loved someone before.
hope the guys really find out about the so-called “taboo” and perplexing ways of how the female psyche works. i totally don’t get why they find us, vixens, so hard to read. like, what IS there to go loco about? what’s there NOT to get?!

ultimate tip for guys:

just pay attention to details, be respectful, be REALLY faithful, and be spontaneous.

and contrary to what they say, we want guys who are very protective and can get a dose of healthy jealousy at times.

that’s it. nothing more, nothing less. your woman will totally adore you for life.

good luck boys! may the force be with you . . . \^o^/ haha

Intellectual Orgasm

16 Dec

December 15, 2008.

From subjects of interest such as modern architecture to late Renaissance paintings and sculptures, from the topics of nudity to arrogance, and from choice of films like “a beautiful mind” over “tanging ina mo”, our humanities professor is never at loss for words or opinions.

He always has this way of capturing my attention even when i am in my deepest concentration (most likely thinking about what awaits me at lunch). the way his words wrap around the subject of his liking seems to be that of a mother caressing her baby and, at the same time, like an obsessed admirer clutching his most prized memorabilia. he just has this command, this conviction, over whatever topic catches his fancy.

like early today. in our humanities class. He was calling names, each instructed to explain what “the difference between an artisan and a craftsman” is. i was scrambling to gather my thoughts, which all seemed unwilling to be gathered, as the idea of early dismissal was nearly screaming its way out of me. he called one student and his(student) answer seemed way off base so he(the prof) wasn’t even nearly satisfied. even when he just wants us to know that, he goes and says, “Let’s have intellectual orgasm here. the foreplay isn’t enough.”and the whole class burst into laughter, as were I.

that right there made me realize right then (even after the conclusion i had earlier that morning: that i HATE my humanities class and i was leaning to the idea of dropping the subject altogether and just take it up again this summer.) that i sort of LIKE the discussions we have in class, i LIKE the way the professors logic is rubbing off on me, and i LIKE that i learn a little more about the basics of art and life as days of our classes pass by (when i even have the determination to arrive in class ON TIME, or even have the guts to go in even when I’m late and missed the first thirty minutes of the one-hour long subject).

sometimes, i even amaze myself at how insensitive i am to the “your late” stares of some people in class. awesumm.

going back . . .

our professor really has this way of speaking that enthralls or hypnotizes even those who have the attention span of a goldfish (which, FYI, is NOT tat long: 4-7 seconds. wow.) . . . .

His words even move me to think that i myself am capable to think articulately and intellectually or even sensibly as he does. It amazes me how much his mouth cooperates with his brain so skillfully. I so wish i could do what he does: turn brilliant and astute ideas and opinions into a sharp, witty, penetrating, and eloquent manner. He so passionately talks about art that the way his thoughts flow freely through his words take me to where his own thoughts lie: may it be the Renaissance or yesterday, or may it be in Germany or the Philippines, his words give it all out.

It’s like he himself is engrossed i his own memories, or wherever nostalgia takes him, that he sidetracks himself most often from what really should be our topic (like today: the medium of art). He doesn’t go far off track though, he still finds the right words to relate everything to what really should be our topic.


After listening to him discuss about Michelangelo’s La Pieta, the only work that he signed his name on; the story of Michelangelo’s resentment in painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel; and his preference of Michelangelo over Leonardo DaVinci, I was moved to think that I myself am capable once more to become an artisan in my own right.

With all that said, our Humanities professor really never ceases to amaze me with his mood swings, eloquence, and unique choice of words.

You GO, Sir!

*applauds*
