Heebie Jeebies

I met with my all girl group today (ha, all girl group), and one of the girls told us a bizarre story.

Yesterday, she received a text message, but it did not state who it was from--it was blank. She opened the text and all it showed was a symbol. Confused, she checked the date and time of the text and it said 1969!

Wa wa wa weird or what!

Later she received another text message, and again, no sender. Opened it, again, the symbol. Checked the date & time...2012!

She immediately deleted the text messages. We asked her if she can draw the symbol it showed and she tried, but it was weird.

HEEBIE JEEBIES OR WHAT!

Ouch.

So the OMGPOP craze begins. I've only played Draw My Thing, and it's super addicting. I stayed up until 3ish just playing that haha. My brover even joined and it's actually pretty fun playing the same game!

A person I know, IMed me and asked what OMGPOP was. I explained and was so excited to share and you know what response I get?
"gay"
"gay"
"gay"
"gay"
"gay"
"gay"
Wow. Honestly, I was taken back. Was that person calling me gay or the game gay? It doesn't matter. That person used the word gay in a negative context. AWW, ARE YOU SERIOUS? REALLY NOW. WHY DID YOU SAY THAT? A wise cousin of mine once said something in the lines of, "don't use gay as a synonym for stupid." Gay does not mean stupid, dumb, or lame. Gay is an identity or an adjective, not a slang word. On top of that, the fact that that person immediately reacted negatively to something he or she does not know of is just plain ignorance. Hmm..kinda reminded me of that time one of Jbendo's friend said Twitter was stupid or whatever.

I don't know, maybe I'm overreacting, but it really shocked me. Maybe it's because someone hasn't called me or said anything thaaat negative to me in awhile. But that is not an excuse.

Man, class is going to start and I didn't even get to read my OMG! Yahoo.

Dreams Again.

My dreams were INTENSE last night. Oh man, when I woke up, I instantly grabbed my phone and took note of everything I remember. So what I am about to blog will be in the form of bullet points because that's how it appears on my Feo. Hopefully you can form an image in your head when you read it. If not, um have a nice day! :)
Ready, set, GO!

Dream #1:
- I was in the Philippines and all my family members (Santa Clarians) were there also.
- We were on a military ship and some sort of birthday party was going on. I remember it being so dirty though.
- Ken and Jessica were wearing Jabbawockeez masks.
- The SWAT team broke in and everyone had to evacuate, but we stayed.
- Went home and people visited (I have no idea about this part, but I took note of it this morning)
- Mr. Muralt was in LA (Another uhhh? Haha)
- Ken & Jessica were swimming in the dirty water.
- People came and took my family & I.
- We were all crying.
- I saw cars lined up in the street and the trunks were filled with materials. The drivers exchanged the materials with people. People were now in the trunk with their hands tied up. They were left to die.
- Our car was in line and I was terrified.
- Our driver then rushed us to a house where Bap and Bapa Reggi tried to help us.
- A couple of guys found us and told us to line up.
- One dude broke a bottle and slit our wrists one by one.
- Before it was my turn, I grabbed my phone and txted Jbendo, saying I'll always think of you. (HAHAHAHA, cheeesy I know, but that's the last thing I typed on my Feo!)

Dream #2:
- I was at a two story house, made out of wood.
- A bad guy broke in and was following a couple of us.
- Everyone was staying away from him. Some even ran away from him.
- I grabbed a knife and started stabbing him. I could even remember the sound it made--the knife going through his jacket and skin.
- Stabbed him multiple times and holes were even visible. No blood gushing out though.

Why are my dreams so violent? Make them stop, ahh!

On a happier note: I think everyone is scarying off the ran. Muahaha.

Happy sleeps-sleeps tonight guys. Try taking a thower backwards, meaning whatever you do first, do last. It's weird. Haha. Oh! Watch for "Ramp Closed" signs before you enter/exit the freeway!

Thower.

Today I took a backwards thower. Usually I wash my hair first, but this time it was my body. Body then hair. It was weird, but it worked!

Soak up the sun while he's here! Try Jergens Soothing Aloe Relief, it's fantastic!

KMD Update.

Listen, listen, listen...
If I didn't have anymore arms, would you still love me?

Ask me, my brover, or Shar to say that ^ phrase or come to my household and listen. Even if you normally just say "listen, listen" around us, we would say that given phrase.

KMD back in the house, what whaat!

Few Updates:
SJSU: Projects, papers, presentations for the next three weeks! Almost there.
Past Event: Last Thursday I became an official active member of Phi Kappa Phi! Wish someone was there at the ceremony. Pretty funny, cute pin, and yummy food.
Next Event: Honors Convocation this Friday.
Weather: Lovin' the sun, but still can't believe the future forecast contains pictures of two clouds w/ showers for Saturday and Sunday. What the heck?
Shop: All shorts $25!
Attire: Who cares if I blind others with my pale legs. Wear sunglasses. Your problem, not mine :)
Song: Metric- Help I'm Alive
Fortune: It's fun being a kid. ["FML"]. AHAHA! Oh golly cheese.
Thought: I have a meeting at 8PM on Wed, which means that I have to take Park&Ride at night, which means that I have to walk across campus to MLK in the dark, and then walk back and wait for the shuttle...in the dark. OH DEAR!

I had a root beer at Lola Fely's 91st bday party.

Wear sunscreen, drink water, and take your allergy meds! When you park and no car is parked in the lot in front of you, scooch up and park racer style. It makes leaving easier and ummmmm it's a tiny tiny bit fun...just maybe this-->much fun. Plus it's a perfect opportunity to just go for it.

Day 47: EASTER.

What a late blog, great way to end Easter. =/

I LOVE JESUS, YES I DO.
I LOVE JESUS, HOW ABOUT YOU?

I'll make this up. I'm feeling dizzy.
______________

Went to Easter mass at Saint Lawrence. It was actually pretty funny! Father Thuc resided the mass and he's funny. He blessed everyone with Holy Water and when I say he blessed us...HE BLESSED US. He didn't just sprinkle Holy Water at us, but he splashed us--he might as well throw the bucket of Holy Water at us. Funny.

Lunch with the fam after then visited Apu at the cemetery. It was nice. Jbendo came over and we grabbed yogurt & visited Jessica. Poor thing had to work on Easter, that's not nice at all. Saw the Davids there too!

Well, another year of Lentin' blogging has gone bye bye. I'll still blog though, but I won't attempt to blog everyday.

It's been fun. Now back to studying. Don't forget to sleep, eat, and pee.

Day 46: Holy Saturday.

A common question: Why?

A day in which we remember what Jesus has done for us. A day in which Jesus' body lay in the tomb. A day in which we anticipate the resurrection of Jesus.
But why was this day filled with up and downs?

Why do some people break the law and find themselves riding in backseat of a police car? Why do some people act unkindly, which leaves others feeling angry and sad? Why do some people act irresponsibly, which puts others in an uncomfortable situation? Why do some people say things to others, but are hypocritical and are not doing it themselves? Why do some people forget who they truly are?

On the other hand...

Why do some people endanger their own lives everyday, just to make the community a safer place? Why do some people forgive those who have done wrong? Why do some people care for complete strangers? Why do some people consider and understand others' feelings? Why do some people act in a self-less manner? Why do some people learn from their mistakes? Why do some people take time out of their day to just catch up and talk with someone? Why do some people show AND share their LOVE everyday?

While drinking your Starbucks beverage, think and reflect.

Day 45: Good Friday.

Jesus died for us.

He endured betrayal, pain, and torture...all for us. ALL FOR US. Think about what He has done, give thanks to Him, and LOVE HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART.

Mass at Holy Spirit was amazing like always. The Passion play was held by the teens, and they did a fabulous job. AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!

Had the chance to see John Rinaldo and his cute wifey, Rosie! It was so good to see them again, it's been almost four years! But thanks to Twitter, I'm connected with John Rinaldo! Hopefully Rosie will give in to Twitter soon ;)

Red Lobster with the fam after. YUMMY bread, well, I think we decided that it was bread's second cousin, biscuit. YUMMY biscuit. Got my shrawberry daiquiri finally! =)

Lovely evening. Stay in for tonight, relax, and reflect. SMILE while giving thanks. Brush your teeth and then talk to the elbow because the hand is on vacation.

Day 44: Holy Thursday.

The Holy Three Days Begin.

Going to mass on Holy Thursday is always awesome. The Last Supper. The Washing of the Feet. The Eucharistic Adoration. Man! Love it. I saw one of my kids during mass and she actually went up to get her foot washed! Last Sunday during class, we discussed what happens during Holy Thursday and I was so happy to see that she participated in mass! =) Aww yay! Hopefully she connected today with what we discussed in class. Haha.

I think my favorite part of the mass was the Eucharistic Adoration. So meaningful. So deep. So beautiful. I wanted to take a picture of the shrine, but it would be wrong to disrupt people while they pray. Maybe next year, you can join me, and see for yourself. =)

Good Friday tomorrow and going to mass at Holy Spirit! I think I did this last year too...Holy Thursday at Saint Lawrence and Good Friday at Holy Spirit. I'm excited! It's going to be good! :)

Pray, give thanks, and sing your heart out. OH! AND dance of course! ;)

Day 43: I Sing To Quincy.

In Moscow, you can be fined for driving a dirty car.
(Psh, Moscow police just want money.)

These passed two weeks, I've only been listening to two songs in my car, Quincy:
1. Keri Hilson Ft. Kanye West & Ne-Yo- Knock You Down
2. Kid CuDi- I Poke Her Face
Driving to and from school, I play these songs and sometimes..well, a lot of the times, I "rewind" it so I can hear my favorite part again....again...again...and again...one more again...again. If someone was in the car with me, they'd get annoyed, but no one is, soooo who cares.

I sing in my car and I'm sure you guys do too. Fun no? I noticed today that I only sing certain lines or words, but I sing it in a weird way haha. I laugh at myself!!! Serious loling =X.
I should record myself one time and share huh? Neh. If you're in the car with me and I like you, you might get to hear me, OR if I drank a root beer, then you got lucky.

Another thing to add to the "Things to do Before I Die" list:
- At a stop light, turn my music up, look at the driver on my left side, and SING MY HEART OUT TO HIM OR HER. This stop light would have to be a good long stop light and maybe in another city or better yet, state. HAHA. That'd be so fun and super hilarious! Aw, wouldn't you like to be that driver?! ;D

Only two more days of rain, try to enjoy it! Grab a 5 dolla foot long and a root beer for only a buck more! With your left hand squeeze your nose, with your right hand itch your left eye, now say, "What the heck, Kristine."

Day 42: LOST (not the show, the verb)

WHAT THE EF.

I LOST (=P)AAAVERYTHING! MY PICTURES, VIDEOS, AND MY ENTIRE HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WORK TO DATE. (=P)AAAVERTHING! (=P)AAAVERYTHING!

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED:
1. MY COMPUTER WASN'T FUNCTIONING AT ALL. THE ONLY THING THAT APPEARED ON THE SCREEN WAS MY WALLPAPER OF THE TWILIGHT CAST.
2. MY BROVER DID SOMETHING SO I CAN PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT TO SAVE ON THE PORTABLE HARD DRIVE
3. HE RESTARTED EVERYTHING.
4. UPLOADED ALL MY STUFF ON THE COMPUTER.
5. WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS, THE COMPUTER WAS MEAN TO ME.
6. MONTHS PASSED WITHOUT USING IT.
7. JBENDO GAVE ME THE NEW WINDOWS & I INSTALLED IT.
8. BROVER FIXED THE INTERNET.
9. YAY! MY COMPUTER WORKS!
10. "I NEED TO UPDATE MY RESUME."
11. WHERE THE HECK ARE MY FILES?!
12. CHECKED ALL THE HARD DRIVES AND LAPTOPS....
CONCLUSION: NO WHERE TO BE FOUND!!!

I'M VERY SAD, ESPECIALLY ABOUT ALL MY COLLEGE WORK--PAPERS, STUDY GUIDES, POWERPOINTS, PROJECTS--ALL GONE! I WORKED SO HARD ON ALL THOSE THINGS TOO. WHAT THE HECK. FOUR YEARS OF WORKING MY BUTT OFF IS NOW GONE FOREVER...FOOOOREEEVVVEERR! UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!

=(

Day 41: Philippines.

My papa is always behind a couple months with songs. He is now, just getting into "Poker Face" HAHA!

It's set, booked, and ready to go! In July, I'm going to the Philippines!!! My whole fam too! We're leaving on July 26 and coming back sometime in mid August. It's been about 13 years since I've been there and I cannot wait. We're also going to Hong Kong, which should be very interesting. I especially can't wait to go to Boracay--white sand, tropical weather, turquoise water--an ideal summer vacation.

This whole trip first came up because my lola is turning 80 years old and would like to celebrate it in the PI. Since it's been so long since we've been there, this is our chance to go, so scheduling started early.

BUT..(big BUT)..there's one thing I'm terrified of....
THE BATHROOMS! DUN DUN DUN. =Z
Man, I'm already picky about my bathrooms here, so just think how it's going to be in the PI. You actually have to bring your own toilet paper & carry it in your bag because there aren't any in malls, stores, etc. My cousin said that many people steal toilet paper there, that's why they don't provide it anymore. EEK! We shall see.

It's going to rain tomorrow! AHH hopefully my toe can stand my rainboots.

I'm going to waste time on youchoob. Care to join me? :)

Day 39: Happy Birthday Sonny!

It was Sonny's 6th Birthday today. Many of us have been waiting for this day. Round Table pizza, garlic twists, wings, AND cake! Sonny was testing out his new bike at the park with Ate Jen, while everyone gathered at Round Table. When he finally came, he was really surprised. Actually, more shocked, he kind of just stood there and stared at everyone. It was funny. Then he sat where the toys were and had his eyes hooked on the TV. Spider Man was on. Oh what a boy, haha.

Man, look at that cake. Do you see the pink layer in between the white and chocolate cake? Yeah, those are SHRAWBERRIES! Oh man. So good. Satisfying.

I couldn't remember the last family gathering. Maybe it was back in January. Can you believe it's already April? NUTS. Next week is Easter! Whoa whoa! Even nutser. I think it's time for a big fam event. Someone needs to get married already so we can all dress up and party. *AHEM* (Olie and Allan).

Quick story: At the party, Jamie-Anne runs up to me...
JAMIE: I have a tattoo.
ME: Cool! Where?
*she lifts her shirt and everyone laughs!
ME: Jamie! Who put that there?!
JAMIE: My mom. She said the tattoo was too big.
Aw. Hahaha, isn't that hilarious? Jamie-Anne has a big tummy. Haha.

*WARNING: girly side of Kristine[dash]Marie Ventura David. With a Clinique purchase of $21.50 or more, you can receive a free gift! I love it when they have offers like this because their cosmetic bags are always cute! I really just want the bags and give the rest to my mama..well some. Ha! I got my dad his M Lotion from Clinique at Macy's, so with that, plus two for $2 eye liner sharpeners, bam! I got it! The FREE gift includes:
1. Mascara
2. Youth Surge SPF 15 moisturizer
3. Moisturizing Lotion
4. Lipstick (you pick color)
5. Cream Stick Blush (pretty cool)
6. Two cometic bags
I absolutely do NOT recommend going to the Macy's in Valley Fair. It's too crowded there and some workers ignore you and are often very rude. Definitely go to the one in Sunnyvale Town Center. Yes, Macy's is still up and running there! Never crowded and workers are extremeley nice and helpful. :)

Ok, that's all. Man, I can't believe I just blogged about makeup. Pardon me while I vomit. Haha! But trust me, it's a good deal. Ok,
homework now! Is it just me or is the weather forecast changing every single day! UGH. Pissing me off. Now it's only going to rain on Tuesday? 76 degrees tomorrow?! WHAT THE HECK. I've been planning on rain too! Well, can't complain about the sun, but can complain about allergies! UGH. Take allergy medicine. Get some sleeps and dream happy dreams.

Day 38: Climbing the Rock.

I was going to blog about sushi, but little did I know, the most exciting part of my day was yet to happen. Francis the praying mantis came over and randomly asked if I wanted to go rock climbing. I hesitated and told me, "ehh, next time." He basically forced me to go since he has a free guest pass every first of the month. I'm glad I went.

Oh my! What an experience. There were so many people there and I got really nervous. My hands started sweating like a mustard! Wow! Haha, thank goodness for powder! The shoes were so comfortable too! I liked 'em. I felt like skipping on my toes. AHHH!!! I was so nervous haha.
Francis taught me how to tie the rope and how to start out. Once I started climbing, I got the hang of it and it was fun! I forgot what wall I started with, but it was getting more difficult. Sometimes I found myself stuck. The first time I got stuck I was thinking of a place to place my foot/hand. Francis guided me through the entire thing. At one point, we were both just laughing because I didn't know where to go. HAHA. Note to self: don't laugh so much while climbing, it'll make you more tired.


As soon as I knew it, I was climbing high walls. Boy, was I scared haha. Scare
d of heights..eek! From the ground, you look at all the colored rocks you want to hit and plan out your path, but when you're actually climbing, oh my golly cheese...you get stuck, especially when you come across the bumps or whatever they're called. It's tiring. Those little rocks too..killer! Haha but it was fun. Yay! I was shocked when Francis told me he climbs for three hours, but time really does fly by fast. I didn't know we spent about two hours climbing. Super fun. I'm going to be sore. Actually, just thinking/typing about rock climbing is making my hands sweat. Haha, where's the powder when you need it! ;P

After rock climbing, we grabbed some yogurt! Jessica was working, so it was good to see her too. She's next! Thanks for the yogurt! It was much needed.

Unexpected day, but fun and exciting! Just one of those things you have to try out. Psh, and I almost passed this opportunity up...man, what's wrong with you, Kristine[dash]Marie Ventura David! Thanks, Francis the praying mantis, for encouraging me to go! I'm glad you did! I had fun! Yay!

Now I can't wait until tomorrow. Round table pizza, garlic twists, and yummy cake! Whoohoo! I can't wait to eat meat! Powder your sweaty hands, don't forget a hair tie, and eat some meat!

Day 37: McGangBang Attempt #1: FAILED.

Attempt #1: Eating a McGangBang.
After Jbendo's interview in Sunnyvale, he stopped by with a McDonald's bag. Oh no no no no no. He got me a McGangBang :(. Shar and I totally pigged out right before he came too, so I wasn't feeling it. However, he kept teasing me and calling me names, so I had to try and eat. Ay yi yi. I don't know what to say. Haha. EEK! It didn't look as great at it did before. I wasn't feeling the cheeseburger, but the chicken was good. I picked at it and gave up. ATTEMPT #1- FAILED. Sorry, buddy. Next time.


Jbendo had a basketball game, so he had to go back to Berk soon. I attempted to take a picture of us, but the sun was waving at me. Look at him all dressed up! He did well on his interview too! Yay, let's pray.

I don't think I'll add the McGangBang to my meal list. The lemon pepper chicken wings are greasy enough. But!!!! I did have pears today, so let's add that yeah?
5. Pears.
Cool. I want to watch Adventureland! It looks super funny. You look super funny. Justkidding. I'm going to watch Jay Leno now. I love his "Jay Walking" segments haha. People can be so dumb, it's hilarious. Okie dokie. Do some laughing.

P.S Look at the time on this blog! It's 11:11!!! LOVE it! :)

You can even order online!

It was Francis and Jessica's first time Wingstopin' and they liked it! Yummy yummy right! I'm so happy they finally tried it and enjoyed it. Yay! Good catching up with them. Busy bees busy bees, yet they still found time to grab some late night chicken wings. Whoo hoo! :)

I'm telling you guys, you must try this. Man, what a food week blog. I think I only ate two home cooked meals this entire week. I can probably create my own menu for you guys. Ready? Set? GO!

1. Bread and Butta
2. Wingstop Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings (Francis, you can add rice if you want. :P)
3. Shrawberry Ice Cream
