The past three days were the most tiring days ever in our college life but last night was a blast.

Beware of Misconceptions.Ü *MERELY*JÜST4FÜN*
Hello Bloggers, Readers and Visitors :)
Today is day 1 of Kumbira. Kumbira is a professional and student culinary show and live competition held in Cagayan de Oro, Mindanao, Philippines. It is the largest culinary event in Mindanao, lasting for three days.
As a Hotel and Restaurant Management student, we are tasked to assist the event for 3 days, also, this is in relation to our subject "EVENTS MANAGEMENT" and blah blah blah..
Whoa! As much as I wanna share to you all the things I did today, I can't. I'm too lazy to do that now. I'm so tired. My feet, my legs, my back are in pain :( huhu..I need a hug :( We've been standing from 7.30a-1.30p (I guess or more) because we are marshalls. We were guarding foyer 2 area where FILIPINO Carving in both professionals and students category are being held-live. So, we gotta control the crowd. As for me, of course, I did what I have to do. But guess what? I was even told I was snob and strict just because I did not allow them (the viewers, watchers) to enter the area, huh? duh. It's not like it was a restricted area actually, they're not just supposed to be there. that's it. I'm just following instructions. Was it really that hard to comprehend or what? It really pissed me off. Big time! But of course, I can't tell them I'm feeling that way. Part of being in a hospitality industry, I need not to show negative expressions, you know. I have to smile even if everything hurts. Life is like that. Life is mean. It's unfair. That's reality. Right? ^_^
But anyway (again), I had fun today. And so, just a sneak peak of today's event =)) hope you'll have fun-too! =))
I will share to you everything after the event, maybe.Ü
Here are some of the finished products (took these randomly) of the live competition in food carving.

49 days is a South Korean television series being showed in the Philippines for quite a while now with it's alternative name PURE LOVE.
I have been watching this drama for days now (I'm still on the 13th episode), not on TV, but in DVD.
I will go with a simple synopsis only.
This is a story about a young girl named Dianne Shin, a free spirit young lady whose life seems to be perfect. She has a parents who adore her and friends who admire her. She's engaged and set to marry her fiance Min-Ho in just a few days before she got into a traffic accident due to a suicidal named Ysabelle Song (who works at a convenient store) and was pronounced to be in a vegetative state. She realized she's already a soul after she met the reaper a.k.a the "scheduler" and give her a chance to live again under some terms.
-In order to live again, she must fill the necklace given by the reaper with pure tears shed by those three people who truly love her (excluding a family member). To do that, she was advise to use the body of Ysabelle "only" when Ysabelle is sleeping. Once someone will noticed that she's Dianne living in Ysabelle's body, the agreement will be useless and she'll lost the chance of living again.
For the next 49 days, she gets a job at a restaurant owned by Raymond, her friend in high school. Later, she remembered what happened before the accident-she saw her best friend and her fiance sitting intimately together in a car and came to her senses about their betrayal. And her quest begin as she realized that it will not be easy for her to find those tears knowing now that the two persons she loves the most (who she thought will help her revive) cheated on her..
Synopsis courtesy of Wikipedia: click here if you wanna read more:)
It made me think. What if it happens for real?
What if, one day I will die and poof! a reaper will appear next to me and will give me a chance to live again under those terms?
I know I have friends. Got plenty of them actually. But the question is. Who will shed a pure tear for me out of those people I call my friends? What if they will cry only for sympathy? or worse, what if they won't even cry for me for the reason that they don't want to ruin their mascara, their make up or whatever?
ha! gosh!
Does it mean, chances are for people only who were able to lived a life full of love and kindness and not to mean people like me? Yeah, I was never, I mean, rather, I am not the kind of person who's nice, considerate and lovable. I'm demanding, impatient, stubborn stupid, vengeful and name it! If it's true then..it means?
Whoa. Even at the other side of the world it's still unfair =((
great!
But anyway, it's just a fantasy :) I don't need to worry, do I?

I was with Janine yesterday, we watched Harry Potter at SM mall. While I was walking going through where I should take a ride, I decided to take photos on the way..I know it's a little bit weird, I mean, taking pictures every now and then but you know..I love it :) Even though people threw those "crazy" looks at me like I'm some kind of weirdo..hello?! as if it's a crime eh?! ^__^ anyway..here's the photos on the way to the mall..it's only about 15-30 mins ride but since the road is under construction right now, we went to another way which was kind of narrow so it took us about 45mins just to get to the mall.

Yesterday I was not able to check my emails due to some issues :( I came home late and was so tired so I decided to just drop off everything I planned for the rest of the night, even my report the next morning (today). Now, I have class at 9am and it's 7:47 in the morning here (Philippine time) but I'm having second thought of going to school because I know for sure that today will just another boring day for me, listen to some discussions, blah blah blah..ugh! But for what it's worth, I'll try to catch up. ^__^
Now, I need to go back to sleep first...^__^ I'm done here. ^__^ to everyone who followed me..thank you!!!
have great evening and good day!!!♥
When it's weekend, my usual wake up call is 9-10am, often times-11am. Now, I woke up around 10.30 and just finished eating. What's wrong here is that, I'm supposed to wake up around 6.30 everyday so I can take my breakfast at 7, snack at 9 and lunch at 11.30, now, what's happening is that my breakfast and lunch and snack is 3-in-1. Oh My! how am I supposed to gain weight if it continues like this? Maybe working out is really not that effective or maybe I'm just too lazy to discipline myself. what to do? hmm..
Like what I did yesterday, I just watched "City Hunter" (it's a korean series) for 2hours and after watched another movie "Every Child Is Special", so far, second of the best movie I've ever seen :) (3 Idiots is still on top of my list).
I wanted to write a review about the movie, but I'm afraid I will just mess it up. I'm really bad at writing anything, I can't organize my thoughts and can't write it in order. sucks! whatever, anyway, maybe when I'm in the mood..later?
You see? I always jump from topic to another! this is really sickening! ^_^
Now, I'm having coffee my while listening to some kind of sad love songs early in the afternoon :)
To the rest of you. Have a great evening and good day ^___^
Today will be our fourth day-working out. Several rules should be followed according to our instructor..take a look:
