recently : on school

hi thar.

it's coffee.

recently, our class have been busy working on with our sculptures.

our Christmas break starts on the 24th.

yess // Christmas eve. :P

anyway..

about the 'Design Principles' subject,

we've been asked to do a sculpture of our company mascot

10 inches tall. >.<

USING AIR-DRY CLAY.

it's cool.

that clay is cool.

the trouble: i went to SM manila to buy the clay from DEOVIR. it's scary there.
especially at night.

DEOVIR: an Art Store in the Philippines... :))
http://www.deovir.com/main_page_store_location.html  deovir

but then.. >.<

my other course mates found it hard to use cause it cracks when it dries.

oh and it's black in color... so we have to paint it white first, before painting it with other colors.
talk about expenses. >.<

last night, i tried a small part of it.

pinched a lil..

and made a small car.

i dunno how to design a car

so i made the typical

bumblebee car

but i painted it with red.

:))

tomorrow, i'd go shopping for tools. bbye money.

and do the base for the sculpture.

im planning on using old newspaper, scratch paper for the fill.

and wire to shape it up.

tape to hold the pieces together. :))

there we go...

oh i found this CLAY-TIPS online.

for those who uses Air Dry clay for business,

hope this helps:

While clay is wet Water can be added to Air-Dry Clay to soften or join pieces. If too much water is added and clay is very soft, allow excess to evaporate before molding pieces; otherwise, cracking may result. Check frequently to determine when the clay achieves the desired workability. When working with Air-Dry Clay, remember that pieces greater than ¼” thick are more durable and less fragile than thinner pieces. When joining two pieces together, score or roughen both surfaces, then apply slip before pressing firmly together. To make slip, mix together clay and water until it's the consistency of heavy cream.

You can use most traditional clay sculpting techniques with Air-Dry Clay, such as coil, slab, pinch, score-and-weld. The wet clay takes impressions well from rubber stamps or textured materials. You can also press beads, small stones or other decorative items directly into the clay.

Air-Dry Clay is similar to a porcelain clay body when wet and can be thrown on a potter’s wheel by intermediate and advanced students. However, it should never be fired in a kiln or painted with traditional glazes.

When clay is dry
Large or thick dry pieces of Air-Dry Clay may be carved or inscribed with clay tools (use adult supervision). Thoroughly dry pieces may be painted with tempera, acrylic or watercolor.

Handling and care information: Store unused clay in an airtight container. Do not store clay to which water has been added. Keep finished product away from open flame. Do not mold into candleholders or other like items for use around flame. Do not put in oven, microwave or kiln. Do not allow finished pieces to come into contact with food or liquids.

RAWr, hits me.

So you’re stuck in front of the computer all day. Or, you put in so many hours in the office that the only exercise you do is getting up from your desk and going to the toilet. Don’t let this daily sedentary position stop you from keeping fit, though. Here are some simple desk exercises that you can do while at work. (P.S. Now you won’t have an excuse for not exercising, such as “I don’t have time, I’ve got so much stuff to do at work.”)

 

Stave off computer eye strain by letting your eyes rest every 20 minutes. Gaze around the office, hang up a soothing panoramic picture and look at it for around 20 seconds. Just remember that your eyes, like the rest of your body, need a break. And besides, you wouldn’t want to risk getting glaucoma, developing near-sightedness, and having blurred vision, would you? 

 

Improve your flexibility by doing some stretching exercises. You can’t just pound away on your keyboard all day! 

 

1. Give your right hand a break from holding the mouse. Lift up both arms and stretch as high as you can. Hold that position for 10 seconds. Then, stretch your right arm even higher, then your left one. Repeat the movement a few more times.

2. Do some arm stretching. First, extend your right arm to your left (like you’re reaching for something on your left but using your right arm and without fully twisting your body to do so). Second, put your left arm under your right arm, bending your left elbow as you do so. Do the same for your left arm. 

3. Avoid having a stiff neck with this simple exercise: Gently turn your head counterclockwise, then turn it again clockwise. Another way is to tilt your head to the right, as if to connect with your shoulder. Use your left hand to gently press your head down. Hold this position for 10 seconds, then do the same on the other side. 

4. Do chair squats. If you have a private or semi-private cubicle, you’ll have lesser chances of feeling dyahe as you do this exercise. Here’s what you should do: Push yourself away from your desk and stand up, with your feet mirroring the same width of your shoulders. Then, with your chair behind you and your arms extended, slowly squat until you are almost sitting on your chair. Hold the position for about 10 seconds. Make sure you suck in or contract your abs as you squat. Repeat 10-15 times. 

 

Tip: Use the stairs as much as possible. Say your office is on the third floor. What’s the harm in climbing three flights rather than taking the elevator? Meanwhile, for those whose offices are in higher levels, get off two or three floors before your office floor and hit the stairs. 

 

If only... life was like this...

 hi thar.

coffee here.

It would be nice if LIFE was like a computer...

If you messed up your life, you could press "Alt, Ctrl, Delete" and start all over!

To get your daily exercise, just click on "run"!

If you needed a break from life, click on "suspend".

Hit "any key" to continue life when ready.

To get even with the neighbors, turn up the sound blaster.

To "add/remove" someone in your life, click settings and control panel.

To improve your appearance, just adjust the display settings.

If life gets too noisy, turn off the speakers.

When you lose your car keys, click on "find".

"Help" with the chores is just a click away.

You wouldn't need auto insurance. You'd use your boot diskette to recover from a crash.

We could click on "send" and the kids would go to bed immediately.

To feel like a new person, click on "refresh".

Click on "close" to shut up the kids and spouse.

To undo a mistake, click on "back".

Is your wardrobe getting old? Click "update".

If you don't like cleaning the litter box, click on "delete".

But then it wont be life anymore.

for life includes the ups and downs

the bad and the good

the happy times and the lowly times

the disappointments and the successes.

if everything would be perfect...

and according to your willl

aren't you just taking it for granted?

and won't you just pass on to those that are good for you,

just because you don't feel like seeing them?

Computers do not suffer Misery.. as there are no Feelings or emotions, Caused by the Human sensations & Intelligence!!

All these apart, Humans are Humans - We made Computers and rule them!

something i found INTERESTING

hi thar.

coffee here.

sorry that i was not able to update. :))

but i want to share this with you.

just read it.

Love is one of the misused words in our vocabulary. In effect its real meaning has become vague. Saying “I love you” and “I love pizza” seems to be same to many.

Could it be that we treat people as pizzas?  

To love, real love or agape is to give oneself to the other for the sake of the other. To lust is to treat people like pizzas.  To lust is to use people for your own selfish desire for pleasure. What do you do when pizza satisfies your craving? It becomes a leftover. And sooner or later it gets thrown away.

Many people feel that way. 

Thrown away.

Lust uses people for selfish reasons and desires. After the reasons or desires are met, the person is discarded. And sadly we live in a culture that promotes using each other, just see the advertisements!

Love, the real thing is on the opposite side of lust. Love wants what is the good of the other. It does not use the other to benefit oneself.  Love looks at the eyes of the beloved. Lust is trapped in his own ego, thinking how to use the other person.

Once I heard that as long as two people are in the agreement in using each other, it is alright. But it does not change the fact that you are being used and you are using another person. And people were not made to be used, but to be loved.

To live a life of lust is to live a life of emptiness.  Only real love can truly satisfy us.

Love and lust cannot exist with each other for the reason that love cannot wait to give while lust cannot wait to take.

How does this agape looks like?

Look at Jesus on the Cross. He emptied Himself for our sake. There is no selfishness in the Crucified Christ. Jesus gave Himself totally to us. Period.

So what is your choice? To love or to lust?

HOW IT STARTED. the green monster

hai thar.
coffee here.

today, i just want to blog about how i feel...

which i cant really identify.
and i will not pay attention to the spelling or whatnot.
because im typing continuously.




gomenasai.






NOVEMBER 16, 2009



First of all...
haha. now that im typing i cant even pinpoint what my problem is. -.-

let's start with...

i envy her just because. :))

at first i really don't care.
so what?
d'ba?

but then...
the first time i met the ma...
the first thing i remember that she said, aside from hi and some questions, was:

"kaninong panyo to? kay ____ ata to e? nagpupunta pa ba sya dito?"

syempre. ako si "stranger" kaya wala akong karapatang magsalita.or nahihiya pa akong magtanong. :)) hahahah gagu kasi ako e.

puro na lang "____" "_______"

oo alam kong matagal na yun..
pero...
di ko na mabura sa isip ko e.

yan yung 1st incident...

2nd naman. same day.. pero gabi na nun
we didiint sleep.
just roamed around.
kwento kwento

hanggang sa napunta nnman yung topic kay ______

phrases i cant forget that HE told me that night.

"alam mo... gusto ka ni mama. 1 kasi,Stephanie pangalan mo. dapat yun yung pangalan ng bunso namin e... 2maganda ka. :))"

"gusto ni mama si ____ pero gusto ka rin nya."

"mas maganda si ___ pero maganda ka rin. mas maganda nga lang si ___"
-puta dba? hahaha. bulls eye yun e. :P kung sya pala mas maganda.. bakit mo pa ako inistorbo.
[ngayon, di ako makatalikod dahil nasanay na akong kasama kita. putek ang hirap dba?]

~ ang hirap yung araw araw mong kasama. araw araw mo ring naaalala na di ikaw yung una sa puso nya. naks gumaganon. :)) ahhahaa... pero masakit ung lagi mong naaalala. :)) haha. at sya pa mismo ang nagsabi. bongga.


edi syempre nacurious ako.

ano ba yung itchura ni ___?
bakit ganon na lang yung pagka gusto nila sa kanya. :))
mas gusto ba sya nila ma?

edi inadd ko. sa halos lahat. -.-

naging frind ko
:)) prind. :))


pero

oo

insecure ako.
tulad na rin ng sabi ng isang friend ni Boy.

"inamin naman ni coffee na insecure sya e."

HAHAHA. edi lalong naginit ulo ko nung. nakita ko to. sabi ko
"KAPAL.POTA."
pero... truth hurts nga diba?

aminado naman ako. pero gago. kung di mo ako kilala. wag mo akong papakealaman. -.-

back to topic. :)) mejo nagoout of topic amf.

nakita ko sya. :D
nakausap.
nakaclose... mejo.


tapos may time na natanong ko

"mas mataba ba sakin si ___"

in bitter voice he answered : "wag kang magsasalita. di mo pa naman sya nakikita"

hurt inside. sabi ko "kaya nga tinatanong ko dba? curious lang naman ako e."

hahah....

feeling ko kasi nun
wala akong karapatan

wala akong karapatang magtanong
tumingin tingin...
magsalita. :))


syempre. sa higit na isang taon na kami'y magkasama..
sa bawat araw.
unti unting nawawla yung confidence ko
hanggang sa...
ngayon
na...
wala na talaga akong tiwala sa sarili ko
pero wala na rin akong pakelam.
pinababayaan ko na rin sarili ko
:))

may laban pa ako nun e.
kasi..
payat pa ako ng onte. haha.
ngayon.
haiy
bahala na si batman



teka

mejo nawala na yung...
pagkainis ko

pero meron pa


mga tanong na naglalaro sa aking isipan.

> kung ba kayo ulit... mas matutuwa sila mama?
>mas mahal mo ba sya sakin?
> bakit sya all out support ka. parang la kayong problema. bakit tayo? bakit? anong mali satin?
> what's wrong with me?
> panu kung.... pumayat ako ng bongga... ako na ba yung mas maganda? mas magugustuhan mo ba ako nun?
> mahal mo pa ba sya?
> what do i have to do?


last question: sagot lang naman dun "break", "off"
LOL. di ko naman magawa. :))


hahaha.
haiy nakooooooooooooo..

UPDATING LATER

due to my busy sched...
and the fact that i just came from Baguio,
imma be updating later. :]



Godbless

Anime Overload Festival

WHAT: Anime Overload Festival '09
WHERE: SMX Convention Center, Pasay City Philippines
WHEN: November 08, 2009 (10:00AM-8:00PM)
WHO: Anime Enthusiast, Volunteers and Contestants







at long last!
from august 24 up till yesterday,
i haven't attended any cosplay event. :))

but just a while ago,
at SMX,
i did.

i must say,
i missed it.
wahaha.
though i didn't get LOTSA pictures.
but oh well.

i had fun.
and was shocked to find mica there and 2 of her friends too.
i forgot teh name of her friend.. >.<
but they're all cute. :))

i like their loli hats. >.<
i kept searching. but.
unfortunately,
there wasnt any.
maybe i'd make my own
:))



btw here's a list of what i bought:
(bbye money)

• 2 tickets worth 100 each
• 1anime hat-200
• a shirt - 895
• blonde wig - 600
• heart socks, black and gray - 100

[supposedly, 160 na yan. :))]

• 2 AME tickets for nov28 - 90 each [discounted]
• food worth almost 500 at karate kid. :P

computing the total expense...
hmmnn..
almost 2765php. >.<
oh my my.. >.<

most of teh money went to teh food e. :P
i like teh shirt. :)) haha. it's so me.
teh food kasi, we ordered a lot. >.< deym.

haiy nako buhay.

1. "Am I better-looking/smarter/etc. than your ex?"
Would you want him to ask you that? If he answers yes to your q, you'll wonder if he's lying. If he says no, well, can your really handle that kind of truth? He's with you now, not her, so just don't even go there.
(pano naman kung sinabi niya na mas maganda yung ex niya kesa sayo maski di ka nagtatanong? tapos simula nun, di ka na msyadong confident? :( -kasakit neh? hahaha simula pa lang e. ganun na.)

2. "Do you love me?"
Has he used the L word already? Well, there's your answer. If he hasn't--and you absolutely have to know where he stands--you might start by telling him how you feel about him, rather than putting him on the spot with a needy question.
(sometimes naman kasi.. pag naglalambing.. diba tatanong din yun para minsan mapansin ka? minsan ginagawa ko yun. ahah! :)) ewan ko lang... :P "do you love me?" "oo naman" "i love you too" tapos smile. :P)

3. "Can you lend me some money?"
A few bucks is fine, but asking for anything substantial (like a down payment on your car, a month's rent, etc) is unfair. You don't sleep with your bank teller, so don't borrow cash from your boyfriend.
(o.o garabe naman yon.)

4. "Are you cheating on me?"
If he's innocent, he'll resent the question. If he's guilty, chances are that he'll lie...and even when you have info to backup your suspicions, you better soft-pedal your accusation. If you're wrong, your relationship may never recover.
(this is a never to ask question. :P TIWALA LANG. :P)

the RIGHT thing. :] and im gonna follow it. :P

by Jason Evert

“Do you want real love?”

If genuine love has escaped you thus far, if think you’ve already found that perfect someone, or if regrets and confusion have made you wonder if the love you’ve dreamed of really exists, the following pages have been written for you.

If you’re like me, you’ve been told that sex is bad. But when you ask why, you hear something like, “It’s just bad, so don’t do it,” or “You’ll get a disease or get pregnant!” While I’m sure you realize that sex has its consequences—and they might be bad if they happen—these reasons aren’t always convincing.

Our generation has been taught how to avoid venereal infections, but what we really want to know is how to find, build, and maintain a relationship of real love. Sex is supposed to be a great gift, so it’s easy to get tired of hearing about the diseases and unwed pregnancy rates. If you’re ready for a different approach, and you want the gift of sex to be as great as it was meant to be, read on.

“How do I find love?”

Everyone wants love. Everyone longs to give himself or herself to another. We’re made for love, and that need in us is so deep that many would rather risk getting pregnant or getting an STD than live without love. We may be willing to take these risks because the world tells us that sex equals love. Then we see relationships in which sex destroyed love, and we wonder what went wrong. The only solution capable of breaking through this hurt and confusion is the virtue known as chastity.

“What’s chastity?”

Chastity is a virtue (like courage or honesty) that applies to a person’s sexuality. It means that you take all of your sexual desires and order them according to the demands of real love. For example, when you love a person, you make whatever sacrifice is best for them and you do whatever is necessary to keep from harming them. Chastity means that you take this definition of love and apply it to sex.

Some think that chastity simply means “no sex.” But that’s abstinence: focusing on what you can’t do and can’t have. Chastity is what you can do and can have, right now: a lifestyle that brings freedom, respect, peace, and even romance—without regret. Chastity frees a couple from the selfish attitude of using each other as objects, thus making them capable of true love.
