yesterday.

my brother is so freaking rich.
but i guess he deserves it. all those nights burning the midnight (dawn) oil.

smart + hardworking = filthy rich.

hmm...if i become a good sister, i'll probably share some of his blessings. but then, he's so stingy.

the whole family, except for the marmoset went to the Film Institute in UP diliman yesterday. the graduation of the economic people was held there.

my mother was fooled into buying 2 corsages (im not sure if that's the correct plural) for 100 each. it turns out corsages were not official, they are not needed. contrary to what the guy said that it is official and needed. my mother was really angry. she tried to look for the guy who sold her the corsage but failed to find him.

the place was almost full. i noticed that there are more girls then boys. the guys wore barong and the girls wore white dresses. they all had the red UP sash hanging on their shoulders like in the pageant.

winnie monzon was there. she's one of the professors. the guest speaker was robina gokongwei-pe. she was funny but i didnt understood some of the things she mentioned. it was amusing when she connected the law of supply and demand with her kidnapping in the 80's. the kidnappers were asking for 7 million php. she explained that there are only few kidnappers that time so they were asking for a big ransom money. now that the supply of kidnappers are many, they demand less ransom money. some even only ask for a few thousand now.
she also mentioned a lot of familiar laws in economics. too bad i forgot what mrs. recosana has taught us. haha.

my brother won the jose encarnation jr. award. that award is for the highest scorer in the whole economic college. my bro got a 1.0 for his grade. the highest one in all the years the college of economics existed.

he got another award. i forgot what's it called. he and his partner phillip libre got 50 thousand each for garnering first place in the thesis they wrote. i forgot the title, but i remember that it sounds very boring. haha.

a few days ago, my bro's godmother gave him 20 k. he has 80 thou now!! and he will still receive money from merry angel's and the lim association. lucky lucky duck.

i saw bernadette lopez. she was wearing this white dress with a puffy skirt. those who are in charge have voted. those who are accused are to received the awards they deserved, though there are awards that are still pending. there were only 12 people who voted no.

in the college of BS economics and economics with business management there were 4 summas, 37 magnas, a lot of cum laudes and the rest are in the dean's list.

smart group huh.

after the show, there were a lot of picture taking. my brother is always surrounded by women. it seems like he has more girlfriends than boyfriends. haha.

my sister and i were bored watching him take pictures so we created a theory that daryl only got his high grade because he and his professors were really "close."

hmm..

You're Not Very Fit

And you're likely to admit that exercise just isn't your thing.
Maybe you need to experiment with new activities to find something you love.
Whether it's roller derby or surfing, just getting out there and moving will do wonders!

hey gramps!!

my relatives on the father side are here. so im hiding in our office. well, my parent's office. i'm not the sociable type. haha. they're here because according to the chinese calendar, it's my grandpa's death anniversary today. yeah, i miss the guy. he's a good grandpa. probably because
a. when i got a hundred in school, he would give me a hundred pesos
b. when i was little, he would always lift me up and then down and then up and then down and then.....well, you know
c. he gave me my first cigarette. and in turn, made me sworn it off. haha
d. when he gets angry, he becomes funny. well, at least for us siblings. he will threaten us and we will laugh. okay, that sounds mean.

im not that mean. i love the dude. sometimes i pity him because some of his children do not love him. not really to the point of hating, it's just that they're not too happy with him. i hear stories from our maid that's been staying here a long time. it seems that he was a strict father and employer. there's a lot of stories, but well, maybe next time.

what the heck happened to jesse mccartney?!? he suddently turned into a pervert. or maybe, he's been one for a long time already.

eeeeeeekk

just to those people who are unaware. and maybe even dont care...
im saying it anyway
my school is ust and my course is pt.
pt stands for point. end. yes, the end of my life.
i just want to die.
before june comes.
geez, im so weak.
pathetic.
my paternal aunts told me that i should have chosen nursing.
my mother's friends told me nursing is better.
4 years is better than 7 yrs.
not to mention it's a lot easier according to my sister.
not to mention "mas matino" ang mga tao sa nursing.
ah whatever.
at least madali lang math. that's my only consolation...
pero sa nursing madali rin math eh.

$%^&* $%^

ignore this post.
everybody knows boredom can entertain unwanted thoughts...

what's for dinner

THE DINNER.....bow

rice...duh!

2 sunny side ups...yum...especially if flavored with seasoning (toyo)...i dont like catsup...well except when it comes to fries. i know eggs are usually for breakfast, but it's a long time already since i last had one...the beauty of sleeping late....you can always pig out later to compensate for the lost breakfast.

soup...dont know what it is called but there's beef, veggies and bola-bola in it. oh, and some medicine our guama gave us. she claims that it can help us eliminate toxins in our body. but according to my sister, it did nothing but made her fart. i still cant feel the farting now...but maybe tonight when im asleep. does one fart when she's asleep? (um..i hope you're not eating now while reading this.)

more of the medicine. this time without the soup.

prunes. my father insisted that i eat to again eliminate toxins. i dont know what's wrong with my family, they suddenly became health conscious.

noodles...you know the preserved ones where you need to add hot water, drain, and later the seasonings. i dont know the brand, since i am not the type to look at brands, but i know that the flavoring is crab chilli. im not really scared to get cancer because i ate those anti-oxidants. haha

chocolate milk...i forgot how many glasses since i just kept on pouring while watching babangon ako at dudurugin kita. all i know is that i finished the whole liter. well, not the whole liter, since someone drank before me...but it's still a lot because i feel like bursting now.

but that didnt stop me from wanting to eat ponkans. problem is, our maid closed the kitchen and so i can't get the citrus fruits...too bad.

im sorry for this boring entry...it just reflects my boring life...and my love for food.

computer's fixed!!

finally, the computer is fixed. and you know what the problem is? just a stupid piece of wire. a stupid piece of thin wire that rendered the big and mighty CPU useless. oh life....

there are many times that i would want to write (i mean type) something on this blog, but because of that stupid wire, i cant. and now i can, i dont know what to write. haha.

oh, maybe you're interested to know why my family's last name is evangelista. it's nothing interesting actually. it's just that some people are wondering how could we have that filipino surname when we claim to be pure chinese. i've always thought that we just bought it like the others, but i just found out that that was not the case. haha. that's waht happens if you choose to be ignorant of your own ancestors.

so here's the story...

once upon a time (haha), there lived a boy named potenciano evangelista. we are not sure of his heritage, if he's a true blooded filipino or if he has some chinese blood. there's nothing mentioned about any family or relatives. the only thing my father can say is that he's probably 10 or 11 yrs old that time. so anyway, for unknown reasons, he went to china.

and also for unknown reasons, he died there. i dont know what age. the only thing we can be sure of is that he never return to the philippines. and so the next thing my father told me is that there is this chinese guy who went to the philippines and claimed to be potenciano evangelista. yes guys, that chinese guy stole the poor boy's name. i asked my father how he could do that, just steal someone's name. and my father answered that there are a lot of lost documents just flying (his word) around that time, the chinese dude probably stumbled upon potenciano's passport. and since that time the pictures are black and white and the place was in chaos, the chinese guy was able to come to the philippines. cheat his way to the philippines, that is.

in my opinion, he probably killed potenciano in able to come here. haha. though my father refuse to accept that theory. i guess he just doesnt want to accept that there might be a murderer in our blood. haha. because it just so happens that that chinese dude is my paternal grandmother's father.

so anyway, the new potenciano married a chinese woman in the philippines and they both have filipino citizenships. they had 5 children. 3 boys and 2 girls. the 2 elder sons died in the war in the hands of the japanese. tsk tsk. my ama is the youngest of the children and she hates the japanese. haha.
my ama is a pure blooded chinese with a filipino citizenship. her name is ana evangelista.

and so ana evangelista met go guan. my 6 foot 1 angkong and they married.
my ankong, 林永遠, is a chinese citizen but he has a green card so he was able to stay here in the philippines. the two never married. i dont know why. but anyway, they 8 children consisting of 5 boys and 3 girls. that time, the consititution doesnt allow illegitimate children from having their fathers' surname. and since my father is illegitimate, he had evangelista for a surname, not lim and he also has no middle name. on the bright side, he's a filipino citizen. when some of his younger siblings were born, the constitution changed so they were able to obtain the surname lim.

yes, i am a bastard's daughter. haha. i am so mean.

and my mother? well, she's a filipino citizen even though both her parents are chinese. something to do with the changing of the constitution again. geez, i cant be a politician. i dont understand how the freaking constitution works. so my mother's whole name is pinky cheung go. pinky tsonggo. haha. wala lang.
