As Told By Ginger mania.

I turned off the computer and decided to just watch the television. As Told By Ginger was on on Nickelodeon. Like I've said a million times before, I love Ginger. I love how she writes about her life and her thoughts on her diary so beautifully. I wish I could do that. I'm not really a writer, I'm just someone who knows how to express herself in English fluently.

But that's not really the point of this post. Like I've said, I already turned off the computer. But watching As Told By Ginger and listening to the thoughts that she's writing on her diary, is making me want to blog. So I decided to get up from my bed, open the computer and blog. Which is what I am actually doing right now. I am not making sense again.
Hoodsie's eulogy made me think a lot about my family. About how sometimes, your family can make you really mad; or feel bad. And it gets hard to see the good things about them. But then one day, they're gone. And all you have left are the memories. And you see all those good things in a new light. And you wish that you have pointed them out a little more often and along the way. -Ginger Foutley
In a way, this made me think about my family too. I'm not really close with my parents. And I barely communicate with my half brother and my half sister. Although my half sister and I are closer than my half brother and I. It's making me feel weird just thinking about them. Probably because I grew up as an only child. My brother left home and got married even before I was born. And my sister had her own family when I was 2 or 3 years old. So I never really felt that I had a sibling. They were gone even before I learned my A B C.

On the other hand, my parents are usually at work. They leave at 8 or 9 in the morning and then go home at the same hour at night. Nannies always took care of me. My parents were never there, since they have work and all, so they had no other choice but to leave me with our help. I got used to it, I suppose. I was never "babied" by my parents. I was always this independent girl. Until now, I can say that I still am. I'm 18 years old but I feel like I'm already in my mid 20s. I feel like I live in my world, especially when I'm here at home. I barely talk to my parents. Though sometimes, we would joke around. But those times are rare, really rare. We could actually go on for weeks without talking to each other. Now, that's not really how families are supposed to be, is it?

But still, after all that, I know that in the future, I would have my own family. And I'm gonna make damn sure that it'd be a happy one. A close-tight family, unlike mine.

Hi BECS!

Even I loved watching 'As Told by Ginger'. I miss it so much. I wish they'd start running it again, or better, make new episodes.

MAY BABAE NANAMAN ANG AKING BUTIHING AMA. Well, it's not really a shocking news to me anymore. Ever since I was a little kid, I've known that my father have other 'women' in his life. I actually thought that that was a normal thing. It's only when I reached the 3rd or 4th grade, I think, that I realized that what he's doing was actually bullshit. Oh well, whatever makes him happy. GO DADDY! Honestly, I thought my Dad already quit this crap. But I guess bad habits die hard . So, how did I found out? As usual, through the ever-so-proficient technology . I don't have any load, so I borrowed my Mom's phone. But she said she was using it, so she gave me my Dad's phone instead. I was just about to delete my message from the Sent Items folder when I saw this unknown number. Pakielamera ako eh, and I got a bit curious, so I opened the two message that my father sent to this--whoever this person is. First message : "Darling wala lang namimiss...

Out of their minds.

  This is way too crazy to not be re-blogged. Translation: Guy killed by 4 men  for not knowing 'Nobody'. For those who are not from Philippines--or in Asia, you most probably don't know what Nobody is. But if you are from somewhere here and still you don't know this irritating song, then for sure, you just came back from somewhere in the outer space. What a loser! Lol. Okay, going back to the news article. I just find this thing so crazy and hard to believe. Why would anyone in their right minds kill someone for simply not knowing such an annoying song? Oh wait. Maybe those people are not in their rignt minds. Figures. Boohoo! I want nobody, nobody but you! *clap. clap.* Nobody kill me. I know the song! HAHAHA.

BITTER!

Dahil una, school ko yun. At pangalawa, friends ko ang cheering squad. Kaya kung hindi kayo naturuan ng sportsmanship, well, kawawa naman kayo. Mas lalo kayong nagmukang talunan. (Hindi ko nilalahat ah. Yung iba lang na akala mo naman kung sino. Wooohhh.) Status 1 : Yung comment, LUTO daw. Hahaha. Natawa naman ako. Kailan pa nagluto ang FEU?! Hindi mo lang kasi tanggap. Hahaha. Status 2 : Yung comment ulit, tanginang feu daw. HAHAHA! Eh di tangina din kung sa'ng school ka man galing. Boohoo! Status 3 : Itlog daw ang tamaraw. Osige, MEDYO agree ako dito. Hindi ko din alam kung ano ang pumasok sa mga ulo nila at naisipan nilang magpanggap na manok. Napakalayo naman sa pagiging Tamaraw. Hahaha. Status 4 : Boo FEU daw.
