Super Birthday. Super Block. Super Friends.

Yesterday, I celebrated my 17^th year of existence on Earth. It was probably the best birthday I ever had. Obviously I wasn’t with my family cause I have classes to attend to. So yeah, I was with my friends; my second family. I was surprised that they gathered messages from a lot of our college block mates. It was really cool since I have never received a collection of letters from almost all of the people I’ve met in college. I didn’t do a lot of celebrations but the thought that they all made efforts to greet me really made my day super. XF1O is like the SUPER block. I am so damn lucky to be a part of it. Last year I celebrated my 16^th birthday with this people, and even if I don’t know them that much then, they made my day complete even if I’m far away from home. This is the second year that I’ve celebrated my birthday without my Mom, so being with those people really matters.

Super Friends. Janine, Marjorie, and Resiel are like my sisters in college. We’ve been together since the day we stepped in CSB as EM- XF1O students. Why are they SUPER? Because their just fabulous, wonderful, fantastic; I am super lucky to have them as friends. And again, I’m running out of words. I’m just super happy I have a wonderful college life with these people.

THANK YOU FOR ALL THOSE BIRTHDAY GREETINGS!

What a wonderful day to start my 17^th year of existence.

PS. Lately I've been using the word "super" a lot. I don't even know why. Maybe because it's just SUPER. LOL. And yay, I'm now SEVENTEEN. :))

Black dress and a pair of combat boots = SUPER.

FASHION JIFFY

Black Dress and Combat Boots. J

Honestly, who would not look good in a little black dress and a pair of combat boots? I’ve never actually seen someone wearing the outfit but inside my head, this is the trend. Whoever she was who already wore something like this really rocks. This week I have combat boots first on my shopping list. I really think it would look good in any outfit, kind of like the kick in our daily wardrobe. How about the little black dress? Epic! One of the pieces every girl must have. I know this stuff will be a perfect match. Here’s a preview. I made a set through polyvore.com. What do you think?

I don’t know what’s in me tonight. I just feel like writing too much twaddle. I don’t know what the heck is happening, but my writing gist is tingling. My internet connection is super slow, and I am frigging annoyed. I guess I am running out of things to do with my computer so I’m writing stuff. Since my internet is inactive tonight, this thing wouldn’t be delivered freshly on my blog page. Okay, so this post will be so random, I am now daunting you to read it. So if I were you, you better stop reading. Haha! This is a result of my super idle and boring night. So if you’re also having a boring time and you have nothing else to do but read it, then you should because you will learn nothing and will realize you’re wasting your time. Hahaha. Na, I’m just goofing around. Lately I have been enjoying watching basketball games. Some guys can really be super hot inside the court. (7/28/10)

(7/29/10) HAHA! Continuation of my unfinished post. I don’t know what the heck to say anymore. LOL. Oh, I am now crushing on a basketball varsity player from my favorite university. haha! Okay, my brain isn’t working anymore. Good bye for now. Tomorrow is my super super happy happy day! I’ll be super frigging seventeen. XD

Seventeen.

By the end of this week I’ll be seventeen. Gone will be my sixteen year old days. I will be a year older and hopefully a year smarter, wiser, and tougher. Age is nothing but a number, but there is something more important than aging. As we grow old, time flies with us. We will pass experiences and moments that will make us better and brighter. We will of course encounter problems on our way; fortunately every problem has a corresponding solution. We grow up to be wiser, the problems we encounter are kinda like the medicines we take; never taste good but will turn out to strengthen our system. Problems will always be harsh, but after digesting it we always come out healthier and brand new.

I have been breathing in this world for almost seventeen years. Even in the less than two decades of living I’ve already been through those tough times. I never really took problems seriously, though some things are really pungent you can’t help but notice it. I do realize that these problems are really good for me; unfortunately I have to feel bad at first before seeing the brighter side of it. Sometimes I ask myself for possible reasons why people have problems, why even teenagers like me are never excused of carrying some ordeal. As I have said, aging is a good thing, problems as well. The past years obviously helped me to think more maturely and act my age. I now know that the troubles teenagers live across are reinforcements for the future; reinforcements to get us ready in the real world as we go from adolescence to adulthood.

I don’t know where I’ll end up with this message; I guess I just wanted to bring out that we should always be thankful for the years we live and the problems we encounter through the years. For those episodes of our lives are actually the things that matter most. I believe that we should never veil our true age, for it is the measurement of how sharp and witty we are; and not the measurement for people to count the crumples in our face.

Today I want to talk about FRIENDS. Who are they? As far as I can remember, I know that friends are people we can always relay to anytime. Friends are people who accept us for who we are. But I believed that there are many kinds of friends. We can call all our acquaintances as friends, but we can never be certain if they really are what we call TRUE FRIENDS. True friends for me are like siblings. I can totally say that my siblings are my true friends; we can like criticize each other and be mean whenever we want to, but at the end of the day we would still share laughs and talk to each other about anything under the sun. We can punch each other in the face, or literally try to kill each other but would still talk after a few minutes. Most of all, we can disagree without even having to ignore them for the rest of our life. They can comfort us every time; even if sometimes my siblings can really be a pain in the ass, I totally love them for being their self and for being real. Well, I do have friends outside my home; friends who are like family to me. I do not have gazillions of friends, but I can say that I have a group of real ones. I can express myself whenever I’m with those fellows. I can really show who I am. I can like talk about any topic with them, and have a real good discussion. We give certain looks at each other and we can totally understand what we both mean. My friends are people who I can spend all day just laughing out loud. Every day, we all have stories to tell like we haven’t seen each other for years. I never get tired of talking around them, I can act like a really big blabbermouth and they still would not be pissed. We can share grudges and everything and just agree, disagree or laugh. Even with our differences, we accept each other and be like siblings together. Act like we don’t care about our reputation anymore, because we can always feel safe that we will not be judged with our actions. Yay. I love my friends, sooo much. ♥ :))

Shout out to all those people, YOU GUYS KNOW WHO YOU ARE. XD

Lately I've been addicted to fashion. Don't know why but seriously, fashion makes me happy. The Image above is one of the sets I created through polyvore.com. This outfit is really classy and is very wearable. I really am loving the dress and the shoes. I adore stuff with a vintage touch. I love how fashion sites make me express my ideas in fashion. I don't usually apply the stuff in real life. But trust me, I'm on my way into it. LOL. :))

ps. i don't know if i can call this a fashion post just yet. XD

i'll be posting more of my polyvore sets. it's very addicting and i love it. :))

Blank.

Eversince I started posting blogs, I haven't yet posted something that will make a good read. I never posted anything that is full of thoughts and information. I always post random things, random happenings and all things that pops naturally in my head. This post will be another one of those random ideas I've got. I type words that pops in my head, write random stuff from any topic, but actually my head is blank. I have a lot of ideas going around my brain everytime, but everytime I try to write and share it my brain hesitates. It almost feels like my thoughts are running away from me everytime I try to share them. Sounds stupid, eh? Yeah, I realized it's insane. Kinda bit complicated, but that is how my brain works. LOL. If you have been reading everything I post, you will notice that all those things I have posted are actually the things I'm experiencing everytime. I've been writing like this blog is my personal journal, and I realized it really is. (Thanks to Cupcake.) As long as I don't hurt anyone with what I write, and I don't break any rules, I can express myself more. I should really be expressing more, and caring less about other people's comments and reactions. After all, I write to express what I really think. One of the things I reflected this month, is to care more about who I think I am and not what others think about me. I should have visualized that before. I always envision that people will only criticize me, that everything I do will be judged. Now I know. I know that no matter what others say, I will still be me, and no judgement or critisizm can change who I am. So for those people, who had problems with their self- confidence, try boosting your ego. I have always been the shy girl, never expressing what I really think, never really participating in anything. I will try to boost my ego a little bit more too. There really is no problem with that, after all we only live once. We have to live our life the way we wanted it to be, and not the way critics say. If you think your happy with your low self- esteem, then don't change yourself. You are always good with what your happy with. A little thought I have today: No matter how insane your attitude is for others, if your being yourself, then you are an AMAZING PERSON. And no one can hinder that.

i'll try being more confident form now on. wish me luck. lol. XD
that's all. thanks for taking time to read my post.

Almost July.

Wow. Time flies. Really fast. It almost the end of the month. July is coming, and it's really nice to welcome the rainy days. There are so many things I always look forward to every month of July. It is almost my favorite month of the year. Maybe because I was born in the month of July. Yes, I'm turning seventeen. Yay! :)) Oh well, it is still the month of June and I'm living life to the fullest before the sixth month of 2010 ends. This month has been an okay month for me. I realized a lot of things about life and I'm looking forward to being more optimistic. I made so many realizations about life, about so many things that I really never thought about before.

This month I watched the movie Starstruck starring STERLING KNIGHT. The hottest guy on Earth for me. (Atleast, for this month.) I've always wanted to be rich and famous. I always wanted to be wealthy, to buy everything I WANT. Everything. The values I've learned isn't really a part of the story, but it made me think that wealth can never really buy happiness. Even if we have all those material things we wanted, we would still feel incomplete. I have always been thinking that SHOPPING can make you happy anytime, that having all the coolest stuff will make you feel like your in heaven. No. It wouldn't. It's just temporary, like everything else in this planet. Yeah, that's it, I'm running out of things to say. XD The movie BTW, was AWESOME. Sterling Knight has a really nice voice. I so love him. LMAO! :))

That's all for now. I really have nothing to say anymore. XD

p.s. i want to post something about FASHION anytime soon. i'm am being a fashion junkie right now. lol.

First post for the month of June. :))

I haven't been posting here for the past weeks. I really had no plans of posting something yet. Oh well, I guess I have to do this randomly again. Today is an okay day. LOL! I had a good time with my friends, as usual. During our Insocio class, my friend Gemmie (a.k.a my CUPCAKE :D) reminded me about my blog which actually ended up with me doing this. HAHA! Arrgh, I cannot concentrate. *sighs* I don't think I will be able to end up with something relevant right now. I'll post something immediately after my brain works.

Therefore, this post is non-sense and no one should be reading this. LOL. :))

xo, nikka ♥

ps. Thanks Cupcake for reminding me about my blog. HAHA! :))

today. filip. :|

I just got home right now. I showed my mom all my grades. I really had okay grades. I didn't fail any of my subjects. Though I am still not contented with those grades. Sure it was nice not to have a failing grade. It's just that I did not reach the grade a Dean's Lister should have. A student will be in the Dean's List if he/she gets an average of 3.o (90-94%) and a grade not less than 2.5 (85-88%). When I had almost all of my course cards I was wishing, though really not expecting for me to get to have the grade I need. I got mostly 3.o, 3.5 and 2.5. One of the last grade I got was my Filipino grade, unfortunately I only made it up to 2.0. A Dean's Lister cannot get a grade of 2.0. It was a bummer to see that grade. I know I should have worked and studied harder. Filipino was the only subject I got a low grade at. I understand that the efforts I gave to the subject don't deserve anything higher than 2.0. I hope this will be a lesson for me. Still I will not stop in being optimistic. I will study harder next term and hopefully I can get into that list again. :

I am happy with my grades though. Atleast, I won't be repeating any subjects.
I think I can still be alright with the grade I've got, after all those are just the results of my actions for that term.
That's all for now.
So long. :))
