80's music rock!

I just realized now that I liked the 80's music best. :)

I knew about:

• Time After Time
• Heaven is a Place on Earth
• Shadows of the night
• Too Many Walls

It's pretty cool since all of the songs there were from the 80's and I wasn't even born yet! :)
Nica's even familiar with Time After Time!
But she didn't want to admit that she was a 90's baby and in turn, we had an argument concerning time. xD
She said that she was born in 1995 so when you round it off, you get 2000. I then said, "You can't round time off!"
Then we went on by saying "Yes." and "No."

My day went on just talking to Nica. (I talked with Pia but then I think she was busy)
We went on talking about various stuff. From Jonas Brothers, to Ashley Tisdale, To what I was doing, and she was doing, to sharing funny youtube videos.
I was laughing so hard to all the youtube videos we watched, and I looked like I was crazy laughing in front of the computer and I didn't want my neighbors to see. Haha. So I invited Nica to talk with me on the VoIP phone.
It took us I think an hour and a half to speak over the phone. I can say, that she picked some of the american accent already, because, boy, she sounded like an american already!

It was funny when Inna arrived from her Piano lessons. She thought I was talking to Sammie. LOL
She was like, "That's Nica?! Why didn't you tell me?!"
Nica talked with Inna and she asked Inna to sing any Jonas Brothers songs.
Then I talked to Nica and I was hyper and I joked around.
"I'm Borrrrred. Are you Borreeed? I'm Borrrrrred to death."
lol. We kept saying that :))

So yeah, I'll be able to continue my trip to Cagayan de Oro later.
Paalam!

Just some pics :) from CDO trip.

Those are just some of the pics from my lola's 80th birthday :)
As I said, I'll post pictures when I can :) And now I can, I posted! lol.
Nobody really reads my blog anyways except for my friends and my relatives.
And yeah, in the first picture, that's the whole of my father's side :) There are I think 31 of us :)

Lil' hi, lil' ho! (Part 2 CDO)

This is the second part. :)

Well, the second day came and this was the day that my grandma (lola) celebrated her 80th birthday. Still in VIP Hotel, as usual for the past 5 years I think. So I knew my way there :P It's near anyways. Just a walking distance.

Anyway, Inna and I didn't practice well for our dance number.
We started after classes on March but we didn't quite get to continue it. So we crammed for our steps! Gosh was it hard to learn steps. (Well, I did combine some dance steps from my dances in school since we didn't have time anymore but most of the steps in the dance were me and Inna's contribution.) Our cousins, Mayee, Maan, Adi, Oniel and their parents prepared something for their presentation. Then the twins, Anton and James, including their younger brother, Alex, were the chipmunks. They even had shirts the same color from Alvin and the Chipmunks. I'll post the videos when I can.

Cram time the most because the party was at 5pm.
Oh and I forgot, we went to mass in Xavier at 6:30 am! EARLY! VERY EARLY! lol. I wasn't used to going to mass at that time.

And crap. Our mixed music was deleted! We had 2 copies though...I for the dvd and one in the iPod just in case the dvd didn't work. We were practicing and then someone pressed the "reset settings" button. So it was deleted. Then we tried the dvd, it played 2 times faster than the usual speed. It was really weird why it was like that, when I tested it on the computer before we left and it was all good. Good thing we had 2 iPods! And we had the original song "Zero" by Varsity. So at the last hour, we had to incorporate all the dance steps in the the song! It was very nerve wracking, I tell ya! I was in the verge of screaming! It was super hard to do, especially when you're pressured.

But yeah, the party came and I didn't care if we did good or what. Haha. At least we presented! lol.

Tito Oriel's family did a James Bond (Banjing! lol) then they danced the Chacha. It was pretty cool! :D Well prepared, even!

Then it was us next. We didn't really care at all. Good thing Tito Oriel's group went first! I convinced them! What a good convincing machine I am! Kidding.

Then the chipmunks' turn to sing. They were so cute when they were only dancing to the Chipmunk's songs.

People sang. We The cuddly cousins...(yes, the cuddly cousins. we plan to change that! besides, when we made our name, we were still, what...10? unlike the wyna, they had minds to think for good names. lol). Anywhoo, we volunteered to sing "Way Back into Love" from Music and Lyrics. It was pretty cool how our voices blended. Funny coz we didn't even practice much for it.

Then other guests went away and then the family had pictures taken and we sang karaoke.
Me and Ate Yen sung "How did you know" by Gary V. I didn't know the lyrics, but good thing there was a song book.

Till the next blog!
Adios!

Lil' hi, lil' ho!

Basically, I don't know where I got that title. I think it's from Stuart Little. Haha.
I JUST GOT BACK FROM CDO! (Cagayan de Oro)

It was hecka' fun!
I got to spend so much time with my relatives from my Father's side! Super!
I got to know them better too! :) I'm so happy that I got to communicate with them! I mean...yeah, Kuya Paul and Kuya Michael were interrogating me. They said we'll just "talk". Then I got to know them more and yeah, like I said, spent time with them.
It was so much fun talking to them. I would always go to wherever Ate Ami and Tita Lai were. I just love talking to them, if not...listening. They're so much fun to be with! They laugh a lot too! :)
Then I got to spend time with my second cousins...Ate Chrissa (otherwise known as Ate Kring) and Queenie (Quang...) to name a few :P

Well, I have so much to tell.
The first day was more or less...dull. Hehe. Maybe because I was tired. We woke up very early!
Well, Papa needed to stay for one more day since there was this whole conflict with Meralco and GSIS (Screw Garcia! Liers! Haha. Seriously, don't believe what they say on TV. They just want publicity.)Well, what I did first was go upstairs, leave my things and kiss the ones I saw in the cheek and then I looked for Ate Yen. Tita Lai eventually said that she was downstairs, so I went downstairs because the whole time I was waiting for our trip to CDO, I wanted to see her, coz whenever she's here in Manila, I would share to her my concerns and problems (Basically, she's my big sister here ;))
I went down to Tito Oriel's office and I saw her (Tito Oriel was talking to someone over the phone then so instead of screaming, I had to keep it in. LOL)
When she was done talking to Tito Oriel, we went to the barber shop to accompany the twins who were then crying because according to them, they wanted to go home in Camaman-an (not sure about the spelling). Mama allowed us! (If Papa was there, he would'nt allow us. I think. :|)
So we accompanied them and I was very eager to tell Ate Yen what I've been wanting to tell her since our trip in Boracay, but we never seemed to have time to talk to each other since I had my classes and she had her work. After having the twins brought home in Gomez, Tita Lai then invited me and Ate Yen to go with her. We shopped for meat. :P Well those are the only things I remember for the first day.

I'll make another blog for the second day and the other days since I think this is going to be long. And I'm going to post pictures if I can.
Au Revoir!
