tagalog midterm, in an hour
procrastination to the max. i know i need to study.
its so hard studying for tagalog. its like studying from something that is so foreign but so famiiar at the same time.
and then theres that thing where i suck at reading tagalog.
i love it when i or any of my class mates cant think of the tagalog word so we butcher the spainish word and hope for the best.
thats funnier is when we're right.
notebook = cuaderno = KUWADENO
friday = viernes = BIYERNES
six = seis = SAIS.
no, whats funnier is when we speak taglish.
to play basketball = ?? = mag-BASKETBOL.
side note
i need to get a job = necesito un trabahjo = kukuhan ako ng trabaho kasi walang pera sa banko. :(

hmm
for some strange and exotic reason, i was watching episodes of felicity on the WE network. it was the episode where felicity wants to have sex with noel so therefore they plan it. she writes it in her day planner and everything
monday:
10:10 - 11:00 am : class
11:00 - 3:00 pm : nap
3:10 - 4:00 pm : class
5:00 - 9:00 pm: [insert boy's name here] - sex
5 to 9. is that asking for too much?
hm. i kind wish i had that written down. who am i kidding, i do have that moment written down.
children
i keep seeing children around me and ive decided that i will have three children and 5 year intervals. yes, that means that every 5 years, i will consciously go off birth control and have a bebe. why? because my kids arent running a muck all over the place. fucking kids.
control
currently i'm re-learning how to exercise my control over my actions. its my attempt to mentally pull myself out of procrastination. i hope this works.

gabnet
so im currently at home because i am in los angeles for a gabriela network conference. my friend lora and i are going to try to start a gabnet chapter in riverside.
what is gabnet you ask? its a us/philippine women's solidarity organization. it addresses issues that not only filipina women face in the philippines but the social issues and issues in general that women face. creating a safe space that women can discuss their problems and concerns in is a vital thing in this male domintated world. yes, i realize how immaculate heart this all is. but its something that i am interested in and something that i remember i was passionate about.
the only thing is that im so shitty regarding following through with things. whenever i'm in a leadership position, im always too busy to do things or i procrastinate with things. and when i look back after my time, i think, damn it would have been so easy just to do this... or that. whatever. this is an opportunity.
i always find it difficult that men always question a large group of women. they stand in awe with thoughts running through their mind like, "oh god. angry brown women... run away."
carolina (my cousin's fiance) ran a workshop today regarding bodies and movement. she stressed that our bodies; ourselves is where solidarity starts. you cannot start a movement without taking control of the space around you. you cannot take control of the space around you without being in control of yourself and your core.
how can i start this when i myself am unsure?

i slept through halloween
oh well. i looks like i'll probably go to chruch today... today being a holy day of obligation.
obligation. arent we supposed to be obligated to go to church every weekend? i havent gone in months. i kinda like church, that is, it feels like home.
now i sound religious, which im far from. im not that kind of person. in fact today, the gideon society was on campus.
"would you like a bible?", asked the gideon representative
"no, im wiccan", i replied.
i always wonder where the gideons get their fucking money to put their bibles in every frikkin hotel room in the country. i mean, i should look that shit up in wikipedia.
in anycase, i should probably address my views on religion while no one is watching. i mean, isnt that when people are most truthful? and besides, i havent been religiously invigorated in a while, so my thoughts will be from a far away standpoint.
i was baptized into the Roman Catholic Church in December 1985. the choice was made by my parents (a practice shunned by other christians). i started my Catholic school education in september of 1990. 'religious education' came in the form of "this is our faith" text books, daily prayer, and first friday masses. two good words that can describe my relgious experiences are "blissful" and "blind". i went to church every sunday with my family. and on top of that, people who only went to church on easter and christmas bugged the hell out of me (it still does now, except for the fact that im now one of them).
after graduating from elementary school, i attended imamculate heart high school, a catholic (but we all swear it was more close to pagan) all girls highschool. this is probably where my religious upheaval occured. with the exception of religion two, where we learned about "safe sex" (abstinence) and abortion (we watched the propaganda tape with an opening welcome by charton heston) and contemporary moral issues (rizzo didnt teach me any knowledge or propaganda that had already been forced upon me) religion classes were good.
let me specify that first. any religion class taught by ms. pollia was a good one. had i had ms. knudsen for any class, she'd be on this list too. but alas, no. ms. pollia taught religion in a (at the time) bizarre way. yes, she showed us catholicism and christianity, but she always told us the back story. the back story had so much more meaning. like she said, you cant teach current events without teaching world history before it.
anyways, ms. pollia taught religion in the best way. she didnt pelt us with dogma and facts, she presented us with what was believed and how others interpreted it. we had the decision to believe or not. in experiencing god, she taught us that God can be found everywhere. prayer is not a list of memorized prayer but a conversation with God. sometimes, when we had our 5 mintues of meditation, i found myself. i was able to catch up with everything in my life. in on being catholic, i was able to see the church for what it was, a chuch built by fallible men. all religions are faulty but you have to see through the cracks and be able to see its basic mission. thats probably why im still Catholic. yes, we have some crazy rituals, but thats what keeps us centered. most of the criticisms of the Catholic church have already been addressed by the church in Vatican II. its just up to the whole church itself to catch up.
i stopped going to church when my mom started to leave things in "God's Hands". leaving things in God's hands really means that you're letting go of your issues and allowing them to solve themselves.
yes, the church is a backwards place where gay marriage is prohibited and contraception will get you into hell. i also know that you shouldnt be a selective catholic. but thats what i am, a selective catholic. i believe in God, the trinity, Jesus rising from the tomb, Mary the mother of God. I've read the old testament and the new testamentthe book of revelation. I believe in the basics.
i dont believe that people who have been divorced can't get into heaven. i dont believe that a woman shouldnt not be able to control how many children she wants. i dont believe that you have to be catholic to get into heaven. i believe in karma, the golden rule, and that we have free will. i've read parts of the the qur'an, the vedas, and the pentateuch.
beliefs can change, through life experiences. for example, i used to be an adament pro-lifer. after my own experiences and other friend's experiences, i am pro-choice. if you made a mistake or if someone had violated you, you should be able to fix your life.
marriage is a union between two people who love each other and want to be able to see each other if one of them is in the ER.
in anycase, im not where near the end of my relgious journey in life.

naps are the best invention. i wish i could have more of them.
i bought an assignment notebook for the first time in two years. i plan on using it. i wrote that down in my weekly goals. i miss immac's assignment notebook. they kept me on track, most of the time.
i have no more cigarettes. maybe thats a good thing. i maybe going up north for this weekend for the 4th annual queer pin@y conference. no, im not gay but im going to for awareness. im really excited for it. maybe i've become a conference whore too. but that another story.
==
recently i changed my mother's mind about gay marriage. i had just finished telling my mom about my friend who she really liked (she wanted me to marry him or something)
me: but mom, he only likes boys!
mom: whaat? he's such a nice boy! i like him.
a day later, we were talking about my sister's winter formal date
mom: he was a nice boy too.
me: well, he's a she now.
mom: whaat? but he was such a nice boy!
me: well he's still a nice person.
so after these two revelations, my mom decided that maybe it IS ok for men to love men and girls to kiss girls. good shit.
==
i also wonder what my mom thinks about me dating now. i've told her that i saw jeff way more than she knew (she knew that) and that i had dated doug for a while (she knew. she said he looked at me as if i was his girlfriend). i cant wait until i'm a mother. i'll know all about my children's business. i'll snoop in their goddamned rooms.
whatever homies.

hollywood bowling
during intermission danielle and i decided that we would get hot apple cider the way we would during hollywood bowl concerts of our youths.
alas, the new hollywood bowl does not sell apple cider.
instead, we purchased two hard brownies and decided to have a cigarette.
when approching the smoking area, we discovered that my dad was already there smoking his benson and hedges. happy birthday, dad.

school begins in 9 days.

my long forever summer
god, what a long fucking summer. the beginning of summer feels so distant. it doesnt feel like "damn, i just moved out of my apartment like thre days ago."
whatever dudes, i made money at ae, spent money from here to wyoming, then from here to san francisco.
i've learned how to live my life without writing about it in this foresaken blog. not really. i suppose its better for the people who know everything in my life to actually be in my life.
i didnt mean that. i miss everyone. im kicking myself for not making enough of an effort to see people this summer.
i've also learned to stop assuming that people are good people because people suck and they never pick up their clothes even when they see people with armloads of merchandise. fuckers.
my brain is an empty bin. i've emptied it out slowly during the summer and i didnt put anything back. oh except memories.
i remember that saint brendan reunions should probably include more than 7 people.
sony fontopia ear buds will block out everything from the white noise of a buses engine to the harsh vocal stylings of tourists
i probably will be ass before the next harry potter book is released
i am unsure which is worse.

intro to ethnic studies

so i had a dream last night that i went to london. or france. and it was with EVERYBODY
yes, the whole immac crew was there. all i remember of this rapidly fading dream is that we all went to a super market in london with all our luggage, we bought all this stuff, everyone was on the other ide of the check out stands except me. by the time i was done with checking out ( it took a while because i was trying to buy booze ) everyone was gone, and i had a piece of luggage missing. and it was a vital piece of luggage. it had my camera, clothes, whatever, and a apparently, in the police report that i filed in my dream, a gun. so i was calling everyone, trying to figure out where everyone was, but i couldnt get anywhere, but i had a wallet full of money.
eh. i dont know. i dont like interpreting my own dreams.

word?

2005 has been depressing but fuck that. it cant get any worse, right? right?
i went to the funeral on monday. has anyone realized that an acronym for funeral is real fun? boy am i depressing.
so i've come to the realization that people who were born in 1990 can be 15 years old now. people born in 1989 can also be on the road, cutting me off.
this fact angers me.
my car is on vacation.
bleh.
anyways..
random
things i did in the past month:
i learned to like biting peoples' heads off
i launched my modeling career
i went blind with kat and israel
i went to tigerheat. so did leslie
i went to beverages and more
i went all margot kidder on you all
i got this fantastic sweater
i went red and emo at the same time
i caught a grasshopper at the pingols
and i got the ugliest picture taken of me. ever.
