Day in the Life of Candy

The way I see it, being anonymous is fantastic. This way, I can really let my hair down and let all inhibitions aside. Just like in theater. Theater gives me room and the courage to not care for a while. I get to be whoever I want to be and no one can really judge me, they won’t hate, but appreciate.
Another bloody fantastic thing from being anonymous is the ability to ask absolutely anything to anyone. Formspring.com, for me, is a brilliant idea for people (like me) who are not really into the YouTube web (getting hooked, videos after videos after videos..) and the facebook games.
Some people are still kind of iffy about formspring and it’s privacy issues, because it’s almost like letting everyone know about you and what you think etc. I know it does look like people are only finding out about you, but in reality, you’ll find not only more about yourself, but especially the world as well. Only in formspring did I find out that there are people out there with amazing imagination. One that stretches even further than yours.
And besides, if you think the question is too personal, just play around with it! c; Don’t take it like a 500 item personality test. Life is too short for such balderdash!
Love and Peace around the world for generations!

What’s Hot, Ketchop?
October 3, 2010 at 6:19 pmScene: Dinner table whilst having shabu-shabu
Me: Alright family! I’ll see you all in a bit! I’m going to the bonfire in Ateneo.
Dad: “Don’t go too near the bonfire ah! Ma-susunburn ka!”
*End of scene*
Yes, my dad was dead Asian serious when he said that, even after I asked him if it was alright to be burnt but not sunburnt.
Must be too much boiled meat in his noggin!
Moving on, I just came home from what was my first time actually seeing a bonfire as a student from the school. I expected a lot of trailer cars and such like tailgating, but I was surprised to see that not only were there tents up with lots of lechon and food everywhere, but what school would have a one minute firework show for their winning basketball team?
Yes fiah works
Lot’s of em
Too bad I didn’t whip out the SLR for these bad boys. Seriously, if this doesn’t scream teen spirit, I don’t know what does. Oh I know, having suspended classes on Monday to celebrate a 3-peat victory. To all Ateneans out there, have a good rest, enjoy a week like U.P. Diliman students and goodluck on finals!

Geek Is The New Chic
July 20, 2010 at 4:10 pmMy, my, times have changed.
Back when I was in flared pants and bandana headbands, the cool thing was Pokemon, Tamagochi, “Who scored highest on Tetris?” and straight haired thin girls with amazingly-shaped eyebrows matched with a perfect pout. The boy of our dreams? Tall, not so dark and very, very, very handsome.
So here is the reason why I am blabbing on like an old lady that was bitter about beautiful people and their super power to turn all guys into mush and have all their professors give them As: The Geek’s Guide To World Domination.
*Angels Singing* AHhhhhhhhHHhHhH
Utter genius, this book.
Basically, it equips you with the necessary skills to really control the universe.
Wanna learn how to:
Brew your own beer?
Build a laser beam?
Clone your pet?
Exorcise demons?
Grasp the theory of relativity?
Kick ass with sweet martial-arts moves?
Master the Ocarina of Time?
Pimp your cubicle?
Write your name in Elvish?
Or better yet, when you graduate from business in college, create a company called “The Universe” and be the president of it so you can properly and legitimately introduce yourself as “The President of The Universe”.
Get this book on your hands girls!
The Future President of The Entire Solar System,

Back in grade school, I told myself I was too young to have a boyfriend so I waited until high school to finally decide to get one, but as soon as I stepped into sophomore year and I looked about my batch mates, I still thought that I was too much of a kid, my studies were my priorities and I was still too young to delve into a relationship.
I’m now in college and I still think I could take in a few years to be read for all that heart twisting mumbo jumbo.
I feel like a scientist finding a cure to cancer. What does it really take to get into a relationship and stick to it? What is a relationship? When does it become a relationship and how do you find someone to share it with?
Thankfully, after hundreds of Candy‘s articles, I have found myself to get a gist about relationships. This is my view, and hopefully when I’m done, you can share me yours so we can both enlighten each other.
- The difficulty level of relationship.
Well, for one thing I know, relationships or getting a boyfriend entails work, time, love, work, and more work. It’s not an easy journey to go through but then again, the results is a lifetime of having someone to talk to at the end of the day and not feel lonely whilst watching chick flicks all day on the telly with a box of chocolates.
And I quote the very charming Logan Echolls from Veronica Mars to always remind you about how worth it the hard part of a sticking to a relationship is when he said: “No one writes songs about the ones that come easy. - Having a fling or a long-term kinda thing?
You can choose either one but please, do me a favor and always end up going for long-term. Some people want to have fun, sure, but don’t miss out on having something real and something you can grow from. A relationship that helps build a new you. I have always been a serious kinda gal and I do strongly believe that when you’re looking for a guy to be your boyfriend, hopefully, you’d see marrying him someday. Okay, don’t look at me that way. I’m not bridezilla or high maintenance jealous chick. I just believe that you shouldn’t be wasting your time breaking hearts and stealing boys when you should have “the one” that will treat you like a treasure as well. Because you deserve that kind of one-of-a-kind guy. - Having a Type.
Here’s the down lo. I really don’t think one person has “a type”. I don’t believe that only a certain type of guy will automatically have this magnetic effect to you. Maybe infatuation has gotten into you and has blinded you for a second there, but I truly and utterly believe that the I-only-date-guys-that-are-my-type is a whole lie. What should matter in looking for the one is basically what you feel about them. if the feeling is right, go with it because your heart is not under the rules of society, but your mind could be.
When you’re in love, you forget certain rules, you can’t eat and think properly, you defy everything that is within you, you just feel, which love is really about.
“Ang Pag-ibig, isipan mo, pag inisip, nasa-puso! Pag pinuso, nasa-isip.” -Pag-ibig by Jose Corazon De Jesus
That’s all I will be sharing for now.
I will try to keep you posted about some new insights I wanna get out there but I do hope that I have helped single, committed or just darned confused girls out there!
If I haven’t helped you out specifically, trust me to get you smiling with these fantastic Filipino pick up lines I had to research on for school. yes that is our homework and yes, I do love college work.
Feast your eyes on these puppies!
