they've decided to make me their new project! [01 Jul 2009|10:21pm]

[ music | LSS Popular - Wicked ]

Epicness all around.

To those who sent their greetings everywhere -- Twitter, Tumbler, Livejournal, Multiply (halabyooo helgaaaa), Facebook (omg facebook!), text messages and Y!M -- you all rooole big time. *fireworks + glitter for all of you*

One: Thirty minutes before the clock struck twelve last night, [info]chikaichix managed to gather all of the great singers in one epic post. I gots a pre-partaaay! (tsk tsk partying on a weekday.)

Let Anoop finish his sentence!


Two: Then teh [info]twixgirl08 played Galinda. I was actually groggy already around 11 pm, but when Trish started to become perky, I became perky too.

(The following needs some prior knowledge on Wicked, especially on the part after the ball and Galinda decides to become friends with Elphaba)


Trish: OH LOOK!!!
IT'S TOMORROWWW!!!!!!
Yumi: LALALALALALALALALALAA
oh elphie
is it alright if i call you elphie?
Trish: it's a little perky

P.S. Trish also got a surprise via Twitter. Read along.

can you toss toss your hair? )


Three: Then [info]tiang interrupted some sexytimes between the Kradam and placed them in a comic strip.

I try to keep it simple )


Four: The most epic thing that happened to me today was a gift from Liza. She kinda spoiled it for me already because she thought it won't happen. Then after a few hours, Liza and I started talking in caps because she got me my greatest internet gift ever.



BEVERLY CLEARY CALLED ME YUMI. OMG.

Liza is totes amazing. Beverly not only Tweeted me, but also sent a Direct message. A DIRECT MESSAGE!

print vs online [28 Jun 2009|11:41pm]

[ music | Her Voice - Drew Seeley ]

Self observation:

I will never be an online reader. My sight goes blurry when there is a need to read online text. If it is really important, I print that selection. When I online read, I tend to skim the text and do a selective remembering. Most of the time I unintentionally skip chunks of information.

From english.ttu.edu:

"Structure of hypertext encourages a rapid movement from one item to item that could discourage reflective engagement with the medium."


Agreed. When I was reading that passage, I had to write it down on my notebook first to be able to understand it fully. Print is so much better than online.

Are you a print reader or an online reader?

[ music | A Daily AntheM - David Cook ]

Papa is so funny.

Tennis has never been a sport. I own tennis dresses but have never worn them on court. I don't own a tennis racket, nor have engaged myself in a tennis match. The only "opponent" that I have faced when I was a kid was a wall. I used my dad's humongous tennis racket to hit balls against the wall. Dad was the tennis player in the family, and I was just a mere spectator and fan.

Now, I have my own tennis racket. Dad bought me one this morning at a sports sale in UP. He bought a Wilson racket, the one that Federer uses. I laughed over the phone when I learned about it. I'm excited to go home and see my racket.

I'm sure he's thinking of fixing the abandoned tennis court at home. It's not a safe place to play anymore. We have trees surrounding the court and its roots have cracked the court. The lines have disappeared and the net pole is rusty. But I guess there's still room for a simple rally, just hitting the ball from one court to another.

This is making me want to abandon my work on Tuesday when I stay home and play. Dad will be home and maybe we could spend the morning hitting those balls. I will be the lady Federer and imagine that I'm playing at the Wimbledon tourney.

I will name my racket Mirka.

This week has been very interesting.

1. Tweets from Season 8 idols. You've seen my hyperactive entry on Trugs' tweet to me. Then this afternoon, another top 36 replied to my tweet. Looks like Mishavonna Henson replies to tweets and she's enthusiastic in doing so.

She posted two photos of snakes and I left comments on both.

@MishavonnaH http://twitpic.com/8c6rc - have you tried putting it around your neck? :P It's so cool and when the snake moves, it's like you're getting a neck massage.

I didn't notice the reply, not until [info]tiang started to send a hate message to me via Y!M. Hahaa



Can I get a reply from Jason Castro next?


2. Maria Sharapova is out of Wimbledon. :( She was defeated by Gisela Dulko, 6-2, 3-6, 6-4. What has happened to the former number 1 tennis player? And for crying out loud, she was defeated at the second round. SECOND ROUND.

I was screaming my head off, but not as as loud as MaSha's screams and wails. Haha Even if the volume was turned down, I could still hear her wails loud and clear.

Federer defeated Guillermo Garcia-Lopez at 6-2, 6-2, 6-4, while Djokovic defeated Simon Greul at 7-5, 6-1, 6-4. I only watched two sets of Federer's match last night then went to sleep because I was so sleepy already. Steph, who was twittering me during the game, assured me that Fed would win. :)


3. I haven't learned anything from my Psych-Philo class. Two meetings were canceled. The first one was because of the h1n1 scare. The second was a University suspension because of the storm (that didn't come). So I went to school just to get the syllabus, eat fruits and play dress up.


4. I cried my eyes out this morning. "I'm gonna miss you." UHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. :(((((((

Adam interviews Kris.



1. Why do you keep on asking about the marriage??
2. Kris getting 'slightly jealous' over Katy coming over to watch Adam. (nails and spa)
3. Kris is going to ask help from Adam on what he'll wear on tour. What goes on inside the closet stays in the closet (or in the creative minds of the Kradam comm)


Allison interviews Kris. Well, wait. There was no interview, they just received some phone calls from Lady Gaga and P Diddy. Yeaaaaahhh royt.




Kris interviews Allison. They're just plain goofballs.

THE Beverly Cleary Tweeted me.

Take note. I didn't tweet her, nor direct a message to her. All I did was to take a Twitter test.



Yes I am a proud reader!



OH I LOVE YOU BEVERLY CLEARLY. I really want to meet you now and have all of my BC books signed.



Why the hell am I suggesting Facebook? Yes, I have a Facebook account already. GO ADD ME DALI.

I've been listening to Begin to Hope to warm me up for the new stuff though, and after I finish writing this blog I'm going to let my ears have some Regina Spektorism treatment. I want to listen to it the whole way through without anything keeping me busy or distracting me, so now after the busy day I'm going to sit back and enjoyyyyy.

Yumi: archie knows how to be a fan
"WDf;oihegalkejdgnaelkgjaehfgpiuhchachacharmin;asdghdf;oiaub!!!!"

So she tweets this:

MY IGNORANCE TO THE SPORT DID NOT GO TO WASTE.

My heart skipped a beat when I got an alert on my Twhirl and it was the color of a reply tweet... TO ME.



I THINK MY HEART WILL NEVER RESTART. EVER. I'VE BEEN STARING AT THE TWEET FOR MINUTES NOW. I KNOW THIS IS NOT A DREAM. THIS IS NOT A DREAM. BREAKING NEWS!!!!!

ALEX WAGNER-TRUGMAN REPLIED TO MY TWEET.


I was trying hard to understand the sport yesterday. But after the reply, I DON'T CARE WHAT 4 UNDER PAR MEANS ANYMORE.

I replied again, but I'm not expecting for another reply. That one tweet was enough to fuel my day... week... month... year, HELL EVEN LIFE.

The Jewish community in LA followed me too. I got the alert when I tweeted about Lambert's adorable Jewish singing when he was 11 years old. Adam is Jewish and he is a yuppie in LA. I found it funny.

Dear Rafa,

Why did you drop out of the Wimbledon? Well, I know that the knee is bothering you... but WHY. You deprived me of a Fedal finals (again) and the chance of seeing you in white. You are the only worthy player who can kick Federer's ass and push him to his limits. Or are you conspiring with Fed by giving him a chance to reclaim that top spot?

Get that knee going. Give me a Fedal finals.

Love,

[ music | (LSS) - Heaven Help My Heart - Chess 2008 ]

I was feeling sorry for my Adidas shoes for the past weeks because it seems that it's close to its retirement. So, I went shoe shopping this evening to pick the lucky pair.

I actually picked a pair in Nike, but my Dad insisted that we dropped by the other stores: Adidas, Lacoste, North Face. The Lacoste shoes were beautiful, but they were too expensive. North Face is more for running and hiking shoes, rather than stylish. Besides, I want light and girly shoes so that I can use them for Taiji training.

Then we went to Adidas. I fell in love with the Stella McCartney collection. Too expensive though; more expensive than the Lacoste shoes. I didn't even think twice of returning the ballet-looking shoes to the rack. I wasn't interested anymore so I followed Dad at men's section. My eyes widened at the sight of a certain shoe.



They were selling the shoes that Novak Djokovic used during the Roland Garros tourney. It had his name on the side. I took it off the rack and showed it to my dad. I silently fangirled. It was the closest I could get to Nole. HAHAHA

I felt like the prince in Cinderella. I have the missing shoe! Now, to look for the owner.

Follow the glitter at @therealGlambert.


If you need proof, here is a portion of his comcast.net chat (4 friggin' AM. Didn't wake up for that. I ain't that glambert crazy. hahaha)

It is TheRealGlambert... that is me... Finally I got a Twitter!


He also confirmed his tewer color:
Blue and silver... and definitely a lot of black. And bring your black nail polish and your eyeliner, people! And just sprinkle glitter all over everything!

SPARKLE, SPARKLE!!


FLAIL NUMBER 2:
The first person that Adam followed is Lea Salonga. Not Cheeks, not any other idol (he hasn't followed any of the idols. HAHA Waiting for Kris?), but THE Lea Salonga. Kinikilig ako for Lea. hahhaha She's giddy about it too!




AAHHHHHHHHHH!!! I wonder if Adam watched Lea on Les Mis or Miss Saigon or or or Flower Drum Song. Dang it, that should've been a great question for Adam during the chat.

If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

shout out to [info]c2d_fourth, who is crazy enough to indulge me with my Next to Normal addiction.

2. I just experienced my first grad school free cut. I guess I have to thank the A H1N1 scare for that?
3. 30 pages of reading for my Psych class. That doesn't include the written essay that we have to do. Wooopie.

4. I went to National Book Store at Trinoma to buy a notebook for class. I was looking for a particular notebook and I approached a saleslady for assistance.

Me: Miss, meron kayong notebook na perforated yung edges?
Lady: .....
Me: Yung butas-butas yung malapit sa edge.
Lady: Lahat naman may butas eh. Para dun sa spiral.
Me: Hindi. Yung pwedeng pilasin, na hindi nasisira yung papel.
Lady: .....

Are people nowadays really slow? Perforated, ghad. Is it some scientific term now?

5. [info]chikaichix is forcing me to pair up with Adam for that fantasy fiction exercise that she and [info]tiang came up with. I told her that I'd rather team up with Jason Castro because Adam belongs to [info]twixgirl08.
