Oyayyy!!!

What? Si Tim Burton lang ba ang pwede mag-trip? Kami din ba. Di pwedeng hindi.

Thank you, Ellaheart. :) Thank you, James.

Naglalaway na ako sa super sinful na hipon. Hahaha.

Mostly Cloudy! Oyayyy! :) Thank you, Lord. :D

Sooo... Ang tahimik ng interwebs today. But whyyysss???

Pinaiyak ako ng Mamma Mia. Naman eh. Hahaha. Le sigh. Iyakin lang talaga siguro ako. Pfsh.

Of writing, strength, and gymKnights...

D: ...I wish I could write like that... You know where people actually get to feel stuff...
M: Hey, super relate ako sayo noh!
D: Wahahaha. Yeah... Pero I haven't made people cry, yet. I mean it's a terrible thing to want... Pero you know, I want to evoke emotion...
M: You dont know that... Maybe there's that someone... Hmmm... I'm trying to recall if you made me cry already. Sobrang dami kasi, di ko na matandaan...
D: Awww... It's ok... The fact that you read, I'm more than thankful for
M: You know why you dont make people cry?
D: Why? ...Kasi i'm funny. Blahahaha.
M: ...Because most of the time if not all the time you appear strong and instead of making people cry you inspire them or make them feel that they're not alone
D: Wwww. Wow. Well that's a compliment. Thank you. Hihihi. It's totally wrong, but thank you. Hahaha. Im the weakest person i know. LOL.
M: Not exactly, there's some sort of strength in your weakness.
D: So you mean my confidence to show that i'm weak makes me appear strong.
M: Yes. The way you put a wall between you and the person who hurts you is Painful in itself pero, others would consider it as a strength
D: So but this strength thing is the problem though... It puts guys off kaya ako single, i fink. Blahahahaha. How do i turn it off??? Shall I pretend to be strong so that i'll appear weak? Moohahaha.
M: I have the same problem, I appear strong daw, kahit sumasakit na ang lungs at bangs ko. Wala ng nerve ang bangs ko pero masakit pa rin.
D: Wahahaha. Well. Yes you do seem to have everything together. But you know what i think the world's definition of strong is all wrong... We're just smart. People think we're strong, but really we're damsels in friggin' distress. Now where the heck is that knight in shining friggin' armor??!?!?!! Putek, antagal nya!
M: Hahahaha! Agree! I'm waiting for that knight too. I don't want a prince charming. I want a KNIGHT!
D: Yeah, Prince Charming's a wuss. Friggin' pretty boy ampf. now a knight. a knight's a man.
a ruggedly handsome sexy man. ...Who has a horse.
M: Grrrrr
D: ...And a sword!
M: Delicioso!
D: ...And metal clothes... Errr. Ok we can work on his fashion sense. Pero what matters is he's a man!
M: Korek.
D: Yun nga lang baka gym member sya in which case... Magkukulutan na lang kami.
M: Nyahahaha.

I so <3 Coraline!!! It's so Alice in Wonderland/Being John Malkovich. Hahaha.

Organizimizizing my schedule -- I'm doing it right. I fink.

I really truly need a diary... Like an appointment calendar type of thing. *Sabunots self*

Dear 123,

I just realized that I haven't been writing so much.

This month is going to end in about a week... And I've only written seven blogs, this included. The other two don't even count, because they were just pictures.

LOL.

Well... At least, I've been making photos. One a day (at least) even! That's more than I can say for 2009 where I didn't even want to go near my camera.

It's weird... But this doesn't feel weird. Haha. What I meant was that I usually feel like there's this void, when I don't write. Write something or anything. I mean if you've known me for a while, you'd know that I have mild hypergraphia...

Yes. Mild. That's what we're calling it now. Haha.

I don't know why this is how it is...

I just think it's weird how this doesn't feel weird.



LOL.


Oxymoronic as always,
D.

Sooo... I'm hella psyched for Project Saturday. :) Thank you, Marcmarc.

Singing: Spell my name, spell my name...

...If no one is around you, say "Baby, I love you", if you ain't running game...

Here's the original color thingyblahblah:


Kissies, huggies, and all the goodstuff.

Loveheartloveheart.

War Wednesday

Please click peekchur for LOL.

Hayyy... Umaatikabong pilian na naman iteyyy.

RESEARCH -- I'm doing it extra right. Seeing as it's 3am and I'm still up doing it.

Ito na naman kami sa pagpili ng peekchur for Day 19... Ang herrafff.

Foodtrip 101: Masarap iulam ang Spam sa Cornflakes. Trust me.

To no one specific and everyone in general:

Hey. How've you been?

So... You don't fool me for one bit. I'm not entirely sure what you're on, but keep at it... The public is amused by your insanity... I say amused, but what I actually mean is that they're laughing their butts off whilst pointing at your general direction. ...Too mean? Pfsh. C'mon... It's almost 4am, you gotta know that I really don't mean any of this.

...Or maybe I do. Who knows? I mean, really?

So how about all this online account syncing, eh? It's pretty awesome is how it is... It just confuses me a little bit and I'm not sure now, whether I should Multiply, Tumblr, Twitter, or Facebook my thoughts... It just seems that whatever I do on whichever site gets synced, so I guess it probably doesn't matter...

...I just care too much, because I'm cuh-ray-zay.

Oh hey, thank you, btw. That was really nice what you did there a couple of weeks ago. And I don't know if you know... I would tell you to your face, but I'm a friggin' coward. See, I did it for the ratings... You were collateral damage. So, I'm sorry, thank you, and everything else in between, I guess.

Yeah, I know. That was really assinine... Water under the bridge over troubled waters. Haha. Lookie, I made a funny.

What are you doing right now? That's a stupid question. I bet you're in the comfort of your comfortable bed sleeping soundly and getting all the energy that you can get so you can have a super duper awesome day later, because I'm pretty sure that all your days are awesome, because you are awesome. Are you dreaming right now as you sleep? I wonder what your dreams are about... Just so you know, my dreams are of you. Ahaha.

...I'm kidding. Or maybe not. A lady would never really tell...

I miss you. I really truly do. We had some pretty fun times, you and I. I wonder if we'll ever get there again in the future... I hope we do. After all, stranger things have happened.


As Always,
D.


P.S.: F.Y.I., I'm infinitely psyched. <3 Yeah, truly, fully, and infinitely psyched. And so to you, I send love, hugs, kisses and all that other awesome stuff that candies and lollipops are made of. Shimshimshimmy! :)

I broke my nail. Oy vey. 3 months na namang pahabaan ito. Le sigh...

The day has come for "Inside Dana's Head" to bid farewell... It's been great.

Sooo... I finally got around to updating my Tumblr. About time, I've been on that thing since forever (Errr... July 2007?). Anyway, I'm posting Project 365 on there, and on Facebook, too. That way, I get to be embarassed on three different sites should I decide to flake on this project. How fun.

Holy guacamole, I was about ready to freak out 'cause I thought I broke the J on my keyboard... Nyahahaha. It's begging to be replaced, man.

...So what exactly is keeping me up at 1:40 in the middle of the night? Uploading pictures at http://danabelle.daportfolio.com Hehe. Just a temporary thing until my dotnet gets fixed. Lookie it! It's pretty. :)

Moving on to Unit 5... Wow. I'm like almost done. Hella psyched, I gotta say.

Sign in, sign out, sign in, sign out. Make up your mind, YM! ...Or actually, please stop having a mind of your own. It's getting a little annoying. ...Just a tad.

Tissue Letter

I was fixing up my room today when I came across this table napkin.

"

I've used up all of my writing space on the scrap paper that I've brought and I'm now resorting to writing on a table napkin. Talk about having issues. The need to write with nothing much to say... What do you call that? I want to write until I lose myself in my own words... Until the words lose all meaning and the syncopation of it is all that matters. Boom boom boom... Keeping up with the beat of whatever it is that you're supposed to keep up with during these times.

I lose, because I don't have rythm enough to even distinguish the beat. I can't even spell "rhythm" correctly the first time through.

Ah... Love. Ah... Nothing. I've lost my rhythm. I am Edgar Allan Poe in that I can't write when I'm not miserable, but when I am, I'm a genius.

I've lost my eloquence. Ever since you came, you've put a smile to my face... Given me a reason to just smile... But you've taken my eloquence. Now I can't even write properly. I'm writing on a table napkin hoping it'll get better.

But no...

You still make me smile.

...And I still can't write.


As Always,
D.

"

Funny thing, I'd forgotten that I wrote this and it was like I was reading it for the first time.

Funnier still, I've forgotten who I wrote it to...

At talagang tinapos namin ang Night At The Museum 2 kahit pahinto-hinto... Sinabi nang bumili na lang ng DVD. Tsk. Haha.

Panic

C: Everyone has someone these days
D: LOL. I don't have anyone, but i'm happy. It's all good
C: Good for you.
D: Being single is great, 'cause you get so much more time for yourself to do what you want...
C: True true. How old are you now?
D: 25, turning 26 in June. I should probably panic. Bwahahaha. But i'm done panicking. That's so 2009!

LOL.

Besides, I have a new theme song.

"And somehow I know that it will all turn out... And you'll make me work so we can work to work it out. ...And I promise you, kid, I'll give so much more than I get...

I just haven't met you yet."

...Just as I predicted. Moohahaha.

Isn't it great how people who don't know you actually take the time to reach out to you just to say something nice? :) I think it's pretty awesome.

I feel like I've accomplished something big... I'm mababaw, I know, but this is a really big deal for me. Thank you, Kisstian!

Danabelle in 2010's First Shorts

New Year!

Oyayyy!

How's 2010 treating y'all so far?

-----------------------------------------------

New Year's Eve we went to church for the watch night service.

I gotta say that was such a blessed night.

After church, we had ...

I know the picture doesn't make it look so appetizing, but that thang was so darn yummy!

Extra, extra! R..ice? Haha.

What? We're ghetto... Ehhh-no naman ngayon? Haha. Sigh. It's almost time to pack up the Christmas plates.

-----------------------------------------------

Oooh! Lookie! Mommy got me a Christmas present...

Di na mamatay ng bigla bigla ang phone ko! Weee!

Oh and one of my New Year's Resolutions is to be more responsible with the phone thing. Which means...

...Yes, I'll know where my phone is... I'll answer all y'all's calls... And... Sasagot na ako sa text kung may load. LOL.

-----------------------------------------------

Oh and lookie! Lookie!!!

Checkered Readers. :) Oyayyy.

I'm a funky nerdy "secretary". Moohahaha.

Oh and I think they're bagay sa New Year's Polka Dot Nails ko. :D

-----------------------------------------------

New Year's Day we went to church and then went over to Taro's Kitchen for lunch.

Mommy was hella psyched. LOL.

Kulet ng nanay ko. Goodness.

Nomnomnom...

Mommy & Uncle Jojo.

After lunch, we went over to Ghurair (pronounced as Grrr. LOL.)


We had coffee at Starbucks where it...

...rained like cray-zayyy!


...which was cool. Cause I love the rain. :D

<3

Check out that sky. Ain't it awesome?

Oh and we met this couple. I was taking pictures of the rain, and the guy was all like "take our picture, take our picture!". So I did. LOL.

On our way home we got into some traffic, as usual... I was hella bored... But thankfully, this sign was there to entertain the heck outta me.

FTW?!

May I interest you in a liver or a kidney perhaps?

Nyahahaha.

-----------------------------------------------

Today, I put this thing together...

Yeah yeah... I promise... No makeup-buying in 2010... Goodness knows I have more than enough.

-----------------------------------------------

Oooh! So I doth thinketh that ghetto photography is making a fabulous comeback in 2010...

The sun was shining through our kitchen window and I thought it would make a fabulous picture for Project 365...

I started with an orange. But since the light was coming in from just one side, it was a little too chiarascuro for my taste... So, I did this.

Moohahaha.

But then, my coffee cup caught my attention 'cause it's just so purdeee...

Ghetto Photograhy at its finest. Hahaha.

Workshop to be conducted soon.

LMAO.

Boohahaha.

-----------------------------------------------

Sooo... I'm taking pictures again. Like pictures pictures. And actually enjoying it.

Last year, I was just in no mood. Everything just started to look bleh.

I think I just needed to rest. ...And kind of break away from the pack. I mean don't get me wrong, hanging out with other photographers has it's good side, but if y'all hang out too often, you kind of lose your identity and your perspectives look horribly the same... Which is not so bad, but it's kind of monotonous... And that's ok if you like monotony...

But... I. Got. Bored.

LOL.

-----------------------------------------------

Sooo....

I'm working on something.

Wow. I feel like it's been a long time since I typed that sentence. Haha.

I'm hella excited is what I am...

Hihi.

Baby STEPS!

-----------------------------------------------

Oooh! I saw Ratatouille yesterday.

:)

I know, I know. My movie card is just all delayed and stuff. Haha.

Oh and I finally saw Twilight. LOL.

New Moon na, Twilight palang napanood ko. Haha.

Tonight, I'm thinking of watching Pirates of the Carribean 2 and Transformers 1 & 2. LOL.

Yes, I have not seen all three.

-----------------------------------------------

This year, I'm going to make a valiant effort to cut the drama...

Haha.

I know, right?

Well... Who knows? I could actually succeed.

-----------------------------------------------

Oh and just because I'm feeling all nostalgic... Here are some of the past years' "first-of-the-year" posts.

2009 - http://danabelle.multiply.com/journal/item/761/
2008 - http://danabelle.multiply.com/journal/item/249/

And here's my first ever Multiply post. LOL.

http://danabelle.multiply.com/journal/item/1/

I've been on Multiply for 5 years!!! My, how time flies...

I guess we should probably make the most of every second... :)

Kissy kissy shimshimshimmy!

Happy happy joy joy! Babysteps. Baby steps. Baby steps! Baby STEPS!!! <3
