Calling All Filipinos!!!

[RoCKiTcZa]

I wonder... are there any Filipinos out here?:)

[dramasnot6]

Where are my best alienatic friends to answer your call? :)

[ampoule]

My future daughter-in-law is Filipino! She is wonderful!!

[Mortis Anarchy]

Err, I'm Mexican, but my best friend is Filipino.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Err, I'm Mexican, but my best friend is Filipino.

wonderful! how'd that be?;)

any other Pinoys wanna come for a chat???

halina kayong lahat, mga kapatid....!!!!

[Gadget Girl]

Hey, RoCKiTcZa! I knew from the moment I saw your avatar that you are a Filipino! Wow, this is cool. Maybe there are only a little of us in here...

I'm a Filipino too, by the way! Nice to meet you and all of the Pinoys out there!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Yep... I have also happened to spot two prominent Filipino litnetters out here, toni and caffeinecups... and another less popular one who, I believe, is a high school student just like me. ;)

[malwethien]

Guilty! :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Guilty! :D

say, are you Pinoy, too?:p

[malwethien]

say, are you Pinoy, too?:p

Opo :)

[Gadget Girl]

Opo :)

Aba, may iba pa pala tayong kapwa Filipino dito sa LitNet ha!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Astig! Dami natin ah... sana mas dumami pa... :cool:
kala ko nga nung una ako lang mag-isa!!! haha...:D
sadly not all of us are aware of our being in the company of kababayans...

(Wonder where BEX is? She's my classmate. fellow pinoy too.);)

[Gadget Girl]

BEX? Is she a member of the forums, too?

[RoCKiTcZa]

yep. Username's BEXseztHat. I'm not so sure about the capitalization though.
(she's been replying most to the thread Grammar Blues)

[toni]

Where are my best alienatic friends to answer your call? :)

:alien: right here! :p


Yep... I have also happened to spot two prominent Filipino litnetters out here, toni and caffeinecups... and another less popular one who, I believe, is a high school student just like me. ;)

omg, how did you know? :p I have 2 sisters on Litnet.. Reccura and Laindessiel :thumbs_up

[RoCKiTcZa]

:alien: right here! :
omg, how did you know? :p I have 2 sisters on Litnet.. Reccura and Laindessiel :thumbs_up

Hmmmm...;)
Really, they're your sisters? Literally? I've come to be somewhat familiar with them too. Searching for Pinoys... that's one of my litnet hobbies;)
It really feels nice to know that you've got some kababayans around.

[toni]

Yes, we’re really sisters! I told them to join litnet hihi, we’re here almost a year now ~ Asteeg rock on!

[Gadget Girl]

Hahaha! Come on in, Filipinos! Dumadami na tayo ha! :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

:cool:

Rock on dude!!!!! :cool:


Hahaha! Come on in, Filipinos! Dumadami na tayo ha! :D

Wahoo! Mga iba pang pinoy dyan... magparamdam na... hehe... :D

(i just hope this won't make anyone hate us... or become partial towards us...:) after all, we want world peace, don't we?)

[Gadget Girl]

Wahoo! Mga iba pang pinoy dyan... magparamdam na... hehe... :D

Feeling mo may iba pang Pinoy sa LitNet, pero hindi lang sila nagpo-post dito?

[RoCKiTcZa]

Feeling mo may iba pang Pinoy sa LitNet, pero hindi lang sila nagpo-post dito?

yup, marami pa actually... hindi lang 10 siguro... yung iba nga lang hindi masyadong active. Still alam ko marami pang Pinoy active users ang hindi (pa) nagpopost dito!!!:)

[Gadget Girl]

Hahahaha! Hay naku, mga Pinoy talaga... :rolleyes:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe... yeah... colonial mentality ba???;)
Hey my friend Bex is online...

[Gadget Girl]

Great! Now we'll make this our thread... like a chatroom... is that even possible?

[RoCKiTcZa]

I guess so...
Hey, so sorry I logged off. I hate to. Music class began much sooner than I thought.

[Gadget Girl]

Me, too. By the time after I answered a thread, my internet connection broke off and I have to wait until midnight (yes, it's 12:00 PM sharp right now but I'm still fully awake). I even watched a movie before I logged in! :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Whoa! Good for you--I have no access to the internet at night. Perhaps that is how you have managed to make all those posts. Imagine--706 in a snap! The first time I saw you around you only had around 100. I've been here much longer than you and yet you have 200 more posts than I! :D

Why don't you blog?

[Gadget Girl]

Hehehe. Yeah, it's also good that my parents allow me to stay up late. :p Other than that, everyday and everynight I'm here on LitNet so that helps me boost my points. :lol: Haha, I have 789 posts now... in other forums, I can't even reach 200. This happened to me only on LitNet and LitNet alone.

Well, the reason in that question, is I just don't want to. :p Usually, I don't know what to write everytime I'm in a blog or something. It's like everytime I'm going to write - I mean, going to type just a single letter - I don't know what's next. I'm weird sometimes. It's only a rare situation if I finished writing a blog. :lol:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe. My parents don't exactly approve of me staying up late, but they have no choice since I have soooo much homework to do at night. :(

By the way, I've seen your blog... hooray for you... I haven't updated my blog much anymore... say, why don't you post a pic of yours?

[Gadget Girl]

Yeah, me and my friend are okay now. :) A pic? :blush: I'm a shy type of person, so probably I can't post a picture. :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe. :) Yeah, me too (somehow). I'm scared of getting ambushed round the corner! (...by fans?:p)
How old are you, by the way?

[Gadget Girl]

I really like people guessing, so I will ask you again. *laughs evilly* I will send you the answer via PM. :) So this will be a contest for us. You guess mine and I'll guess yours. Deal or no deal? *smugs*

[BEXsezThAt]

hey cza, i finally saw the thread.. heehee... and what was that you said about caffeinecups, or something like that? you know how much i like coffee. *smiley*

btw, kamusta na kayong mga pilipinos?
(I'm not really that good, but i'm getting better at speaking :thumbs_up )

[Gadget Girl]

Hey BEX! Kit told me about you. It's good to see you around LitNet for the first time.

[BEXsezThAt]

I've actually just been hanging around the "grammar blues" thread for a while now.. But yeah, it's great :p .

So pinoy ka rin? Awesome...

[Gadget Girl]

Yeah, Pinoy talaga ako. :)

By the way, di ko na nakikita si Kit dito sa LitNet for, I think mga one week na siguro. Bakit kaya?

[RoCKiTcZa]

hey there. I'm back!!! Long weekend kc eh, pumunta sa South Cemetery sa libingan ng lolo ko... :)

[Gadget Girl]

Ahh, ganun ba. Matagal na kitang hindi nakikita eh! :lol: Malapit lang yung cemetery namin dito, so present ako everyday sa LitNet. :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Ahh, ganun ba. Matagal na kitang hindi nakikita eh! :lol: Malapit lang yung cemetery namin dito, so present ako everyday sa LitNet. :D

Hehe. ;) Good for ya!!! 667 posts pa lang ako. Wah!!!


I really like people guessing, so I will ask you again. *laughs evilly* I will send you the answer via PM. :) So this will be a contest for us. You guess mine and I'll guess yours. Deal or no deal? *smugs*

DEAL!!! :D

Let's see... 15?

Sorry if I'm wrong... which I might be...

[Gadget Girl]

You are wrong... :D

How about... 14?

*crosses fingers*

[RoCKiTcZa]

Online again!!! WHEEE!!! :D

Haha!!! Close, but you were wrong there... ;)

Let's give ourselves another try!!! Hmmm... 16? Older, younger? :)

[Gadget Girl]

Not 16. Hahaha!

You are 15! :banana:

Am I old? Am I younger? I don't know... *smugs again*

[RoCKiTcZa]

noooo...

you are in high school right? let's see... 13???

[Gadget Girl]

Nope! :p

Uhm, 17? I think I'm right... :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hey there. I'm back! Sorry I logged off last night. Had some Drafting homework to do. *Sigh* I'm still dead tired up to now...

Let's see... maybe you are 14!!! :lol: Me? 17? Hmmm.... not yet...

[Gadget Girl]

Alright, you are 16. That's my final guess. (You should take your final guess too so that the little guessing game we have here will be over. :))

Am I 14? I dunno... not sure.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Haha... you should be. ;) I'm going with that one. Kakasa na ako! 14 ka.

Nope... not 16. :lol:

[Gadget Girl]

What the heck? Nasabi ko na lahat ng age na pwede sa iyo ha... hmm, ano kaya? How about twelve? (Grabe, batang bata ka pa kung twelve ka pa lang.) Or how about thirteen? Ano ba talaga?? o.O

Update (seven hours later):

Haha! I know how old you are! :banana: You're :p! I was so stupid in not thinking of that before. Ugh! :flare:

So, am I right or what? :D Is it time for answers now?

[RoCKiTcZa]

Yep. :blush: I wouldn't think of myself as _______ either--I'm often mistaken for someone over twenty, and I sometimes think I'm twenty-five too :p Besides I wouldn't want others being partial towards me because of my age, and for this reason I have decided not to state it.

How old are you? :D

Just a question, by the way, have you by any chance happened to touch Rizal's Noli me Tangere in school? I have to cram six chapters of the book this lunchtime and I don't know if I'll ever finish it. I know I read fast, but it's the outline part that troubles me. :(

[malwethien]

Wow..naging chat room na sya hahaha. Malamang nga maraming mga Pinoy dito, kaso hindi sila nag po-post...dami namang Pinoy all over the place :)

Hey Rockitcza...South Cemetery huh? Baka nagkasalubong tayo dun nung Undas bwahahaha :)

Nagulat ako at naging 'active' ulit 'tong thread....mejo nasa page 3 or 4 na 'to dati eh.....Mabuhay ang mga Pinoy bwahahaha!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe... onti nga lang kaming nagpopost... kadalasan kami lang ni Gadget... pero k lng yan... dadami rin yan... dapat nga proud tayong lahat sa pagiging pinoy... :p mabuti naman at nakarating ka! :D Yep, sa South Cemetery din pala yung sa inyo... saan banda dun? Street H yung sa amin eh. ;)

[amanda_isabel]

ewan ko lang, pero ako nagpost na!

pasensya na, ngayon lang ulit naka post.. alam mo naman.. matapos ang bakasyon, balik na sa iskoool. hehe.. di ko alam dumarami na pala tayo dito!

[malwethien]

Hehe... onti nga lang kaming nagpopost... kadalasan kami lang ni Gadget... pero k lng yan... dadami rin yan... dapat nga proud tayong lahat sa pagiging pinoy... :p mabuti naman at nakarating ka! :D Yep, sa South Cemetery din pala yung sa inyo... saan banda dun? Street H yung sa amin eh. ;)

Rock...hindi ko alam kung saan yung sa South Cemetery eh...LOL...sa bandang likod...basta alam ko malapit sya sa pader na may hagdan para may ober da bakod na short-cut hahaha! (kakaiba!) ;)

[RoCKiTcZa]

ewan ko lang, pero ako nagpost na!

pasensya na, ngayon lang ulit naka post.. alam mo naman.. matapos ang bakasyon, balik na sa iskoool. hehe.. di ko alam dumarami na pala tayo dito!

Haha. Samin din eh. As in super busy. Pero ewan ko ba, sa sobrang adik ko sa litnet, feeling ko ito na yata yung school ko...:lol:


Rock...hindi ko alam kung saan yung sa South Cemetery eh...LOL...sa bandang likod...basta alam ko malapit sya sa pader na may hagdan para may ober da bakod na short-cut hahaha! (kakaiba!) ;)
Haha... yep, nadaanan namin yun... but doon kami malapit sa place kung saan madaming kids ang nakalibing... ;) Anyways, since tapos naman ang undas, ano naman ang pinagkakaabalahan mo ngayong magpapasko na?:D
(hehe... lalim b...:p)
Btw checked out your blog... mod ka ba? nka close ata samin ahh... hehehe...

[Scheherazade]

R e m i n d e r

The official language of communication on this Forum is English.

If you would like to communicate in other languages, please feel free to do so in your PMs.

[RoCKiTcZa]

OK thank you. (that surprised me!)
Would phrases written in a language besides English including their translations be permitted?

Guys... let's PM each other... it feels so nice to talk in our national language... but anyways we can always talk to each other in here...

[malwethien]

Rock: Oh yeah..the blog..sorry...I deleted my blog a long time ago. :) By the way, I sent you a request on YM to be added...hope you don't mind ;)

[RoCKiTcZa]

Sure!!!:D Glad you're online again. sooo disappointing we won't be able to communicate in Filipino on this thread anymore... but that doesn't mean we should stop posting here, right? *wipes eyes on sleeve* hehe.:lol: It appears as though you still have a blog, however. Weird.

[Scheherazade]

OK thank you. (that surprised me!)Just made a list of the countries our members come from and could think of at least 35 within the first couple of minutes (I am sure there are more if I gave a serious thought to it). If everyone spoke their own language, the Forum would stop serving to its original purpose and become a place of absolute chaos.

Killjoy or not, I will have to insist that you have Filipino chats in your PMs.

[Gadget Girl]

Uh-oh, we're caught! *runs away* It's good I wasn't here when Sche turned up. :lol: Sorry for breaking the rules again, Scheherazade. Let's see, I've broke the rules twice in this forum -- first the siggy and now our national language. :lol:


Just a question, by the way, have you by any chance happened to touch Rizal's Noli me Tangere in school? I have to cram six chapters of the book this lunchtime and I don't know if I'll ever finish it. I know I read fast, but it's the outline part that troubles me. :(

Oh, I'm sorry, Kit. I haven't. :( Well, I guess you've already finished it last night 'cuz you're a fast reader, right? Which is a good thing. I can't even do that myself. :lol:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe... I'm a lawbreaker too... take me as the primary suspect!!! :D hehehe, just kidding. I see, you're in 2nd year high school, aren't you? Noli is 4th year reading material, but we have to study it now... it's harrassing, indeed, especially with loads of homework to do. Indeed, Pisay isn't easy. Many people surrender or get kicked out, and I sure don't want any of those to happen to me. Yep, I've been trying to read it part by part... last summer I almost completed it... yet I'm afraid I've forgotten several portions already...

[andrew23]

Greetings everyone :)

You callin all filipinos? SNAP! I'm right here like in the speed of light. HMm..there seems to be a wind of excitement here, it's so cold it chills me. First of all, there's fellow citizens out there. Secondly, we all like talking and writing! hahahaaha, this is gonna be interesting..

And to the two fellas out there dominating this thread, hello to both of you..:thumbs_up

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hey Andrew, welcome to Litnet, and hello to you too ;) Hope you enjoy it here and decide to, well, stay... and be a loyal member of our litnet clan... hope forums life doesn't bore you! :p in the meantime, thanks for showing up! We'll get to know each other a lot better soon. Guys, meet andrew, the newest addition to our list of kababayans... Wahoo!!! :D

Say, andrew, what are you interested in and which books do you read?

[andrew23]

i'm interested in ahmm...i don't know

i guess i like things to be sponatenous, suprising, and exciting. i like mysteries and puzzles.

i don't really like books. but i like reading a lot of things in the internet. anything concerning with music, religion, and poetry. i also like movies. especially movies that are funny, or has something to do with poetry, romance, or anything exciting.

[Gadget Girl]

Well, I see Andrew's already here. Welcome! :p Hope you enjoy the things we LitNetters are enjoying. :lol:

[andrew23]

yeah, and since i'm already here..

can i ask your ages? i'm 17 as shown by the funny picture on my avatar.

how old are you guys?

[BEXsezThAt]

wow wow wow, I haven't posted in a looong time :) . The last time I was here, this thread was only 2 pages long! Awesome..

just wanna say HELLO to all you pinoys out there.. you rock! By the way, I'm a friend of Kit so if you guys wanna know anything about her, you can always ask me.. *evil grin*

[RoCKiTcZa]

wow wow wow, I haven't posted in a looong time :) . The last time I was here, this thread was only 2 pages long! Awesome..

just wanna say HELLO to all you pinoys out there.. you rock! By the way, I'm a friend of Kit so if you guys wanna know anything about her, you can always ask me.. *evil grin*

Haha... just you try... oh well, at least I've got something to say about you when our litnet friends start asking about your avvie and subname... Whee!!!:thumbs_up just kidding, don't take offense:p :p

Keeping age a secret, eh, Bex? ;) Yeah, me too. Some people know, though. You know how big my mouth is, especially when it comes to facts about me... and others too! So guys, look out!!! :cool:

Still, would you mind if I gave out some clues? :)

Andrew, perhaps you might want to guess mine! :p

[Gadget Girl]

Here is the gussing game again! :lol:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hehe. :lol: I have 3 minutes till my next class.

Well, hope he does guess it... actually the number is just lurking around... and it's all your fault!!! :p

[Gadget Girl]

Well, we could change it! What say you?

[RoCKiTcZa]

Sure!!! Why not! That would be just great! ;) You are my best litnet friend, G.G. :D Hehehehehe :lol:

[Gadget Girl]

Hehe, you too, Kit. :D

Okay, I changed it!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Haha. Sure. :)

Where exactly in the Philippines do you live, though? I'm a Metro Manila girl.... though I was born in Mindanao.

I wonder where the others come from?

Andrew, too.

[Gadget Girl]

Let's say... near Cebu. Give the answer to your mind! :p

[RoCKiTcZa]

Near Cebu? Hmm... I'll check it out in a map. :)

[Gadget Girl]

Let's see if you'll know where I am. ;)

[RoCKiTcZa]

Wait--are you near the city, or the island? Should I PM what I've researched? Hmmm... I will.

[Gadget Girl]

Haha! We'll see if you know the exact place. ;)

[andrew23]

i'll guess you're 13 or 14

i live in quezon city, proj.8, the place full of bright of lights and busy people..

oh my..i'm in a rush..!!!!

[RoCKiTcZa]

In a rush? Hmmm... why, you're online right now.

Hmmm... you saw one of these values, didn't you? Haha. :D Well... all I can say is... you're great, man. Two birds in one shot. ;)

[andrew23]

hah! what has come to your mind and you said i'm a great man? hehe

[RoCKiTcZa]

Guess you gotta figure it out. ;)

[andrew23]

so, you prefer the mysterious path eh? hehe

you might want to give some clues..

[RoCKiTcZa]

Yep... I'm a very mysterious person.

Well, you're kinda good in the guessing game. :)

Guess I gotta leave now... still got a commitment to my Math teacher which I cannot possibly break...

[andrew23]

alright kid,

go and run to your math teacher, :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Gosh, I'm still here. :)

[andrew23]

calling all filipinos that are bored!!

let's arrange a grand parade. let's wear colorful costumes and stuffs. let's put royalty on the road, and fill the bloody times with celebration

[RoCKiTcZa]

Wow. I would've preferred it Black, though. So we could all say "Welcome to the Black Parade." And send black fireworks up into the daytime sky. Then we toss our black hats and yell with joy.

Why, did another bombing occur?

[andrew23]

i like that idea. seems like chemical romance.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Yeeeesss!!! Do you love that band, too?

[andrew23]

i do listen to their band when i feel weird things

[RoCKiTcZa]

So that means you are emo. :) Cool.

I guess every pinoy loves MCR.

[andrew23]

still have class, got to go..........

[RoCKiTcZa]

All right. See ya around. :)

Now where is Gadget?

[Gadget Girl]

i'll guess you're 13 or 14

i live in quezon city, proj.8, the place full of bright of lights and busy people..

oh my..i'm in a rush..!!!!

Ooh, nice one. ;)


Two birds in one shot. ;)

:lol: Kit, this guy's better than us!


Now where is Gadget?

Here I am! My sis' computer broke off again and she borrowed mine instead. AND I have to wait until 11 (it's always 11) to get it back. :rolleyes:

This time I'm the only one left on this beautiful thread. :D

[andrew23]

"two birds in one shot"

that sounds powerful.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hey there. Two birds in one shot? Powerful indeed. :p And GREEN-MINDED too! :blush: But oh, no, I don't want to think of that, even though most of the kids in my class are soooooo lewd and bawdy. Telling you, Pisay isn't a school for nerds, as many people say. People in here are the exact opposite. And my entire class is green!!!

[andrew23]

with all my heart, that green thing has not crossed my mind. no, not once.

[RoCKiTcZa]

hehe... That's nice of you. Never in my life have I met a guy who wasn't the least bit green-minded. As far as I know, all Pinoys are green, or at least able to comprehend green things. :) I've been around with green people for so long I'm starting to think a bit like them... well I'm sort of off-color myself. But I refuse to let these green thoughts pollute my head. It's unhealthy.

[andrew23]

i'm bored. i guess i'll eat now for an interesting taste of different flavors..

[RoCKiTcZa]

i'm bored. i guess i'll eat now for an interesting taste of different flavors..

Sure, man. Eat heartily. Enjoy your meal. I'm filled to the brim, so I guess I'll go on exploring litnet for interesting threads that need replies. See ya! :D

[Gadget Girl]

Well, I'm back! What's up with everyone? :D Did I miss something? ;)

[toni]

i'll guess you're 13 or 14

i live in quezon city, proj.8, the place full of bright of lights and busy people..

oh my..i'm in a rush..!!!!

project 8?? OMG i am so near you! do you know the grocery store cherry?my house is just a few blocks away from there haha i am there every morning, running:p



hi everyone

[andrew23]

ya, i know that store. i used to go there.

"under the sakura tree", sounds sentimental.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Sure is. toni is one of our great pinoy litnetters. ;)

By the way, Proj 8 is in QC right? Yeah, I live in Quezon City too. :)

[andrew23]

i saw the most beautiful girl in the world this evening beside the passenger seat..

her eyes just tell it all.

and when our eyes met, it was magic.

it was destiny, it was meant to happen..

[Gadget Girl]

Hey Andrew, do you think she's your one true love? :D

[andrew23]

I don't think so. it's more of an admiration in deep silence. she's not my destiny. however, all loves can be true in different ways..

however again, i'm not like the others. cause in all the ways love that can be true, to me it's the sum of all the others..

[andrew23]

A wish

I wish the hard rock of life
Would melt before my eyes;
I dream that those thick clouds
Go away from the pure blue sky.
Another sigh in my heart tells me
That this is only but a dream,
And I will never realize the joy
In all I thought it would seem.

Writing rhymes do me console,
But I know rhymes do deplete and also end;
And climbing the path to the top-
of the mountain shall my time be most spend.

I could not bring back the smile in the past,
Nor guarantee joy in the future;
I do not even know or am sure why
We continue life's adventure.

I wish the vague light of life
Would clarify before my eyes;
I wish I have the enough strength
To remove all clouds of sighs.
My heart is very much troubled,
And my body is getting weary;
I wish I would soon see clarity,
Before my vision gets blurry.

[Gadget Girl]

Wow, nice poem you got there, Andrew. So deep and meaningful... did you put this on the Personal Poetry thread?

---

I wonder where is Kit. I never seen her for two days already.

[andrew23]

i did not post it there, for reasons such as:

1. i'd rather let the filipinos have the number 1 privilege to my art. hehe
2. there's lot of time wasting criticisms in personal poetry.
3. therefore i'd rather post it here for the good of my fellow citizens.
4. it's 100% filipino friendly (sounds like user-friendly in cellphones haha!)

[Gadget Girl]

:lol: But the people in Personal Poetry sometimes compliment the works of others. Criticisms are the only way to improve. So it helps too. :) Why don't you try it? I posted there once and they were fine.

[andrew23]

it's not really the criticism that bothers me. i just want the better priviliges for filipinos hehe.

[Gadget Girl]

Oh... hehehe I get it. :D So, what's up?

[andrew23]

i'm okay. just goofin around a little bit i guess. hehe

[Gadget Girl]

This thread is becoming a little boring. There are only three of us (Kit included, but she's not anywhere to be seen), some Filipinos are registering but they're not posting! What's the use of it? Tsk, tsk, tsk... :(

[toni]

AWWW Im here! How are u guys doing? heheeh
I just thought that Andrew probably is the closest Litnetter from where I live haha.. where do ya live, gadget? Kit?>

[Gadget Girl]

Well, I'm so far away from Manila. That's the only clue I can give you. ;) Kit told me she's from Metro Manila though.

[Reccura]

Ahh busted. Everyone knows Toni's my sister! :) and now everyone knows what I am... :D Filipino!!

I guess I shouldn't put 'Hotel Bella Muerte' in my location now...

[Gadget Girl]

Hey Reccura! I saw your thread about drawings... you made that one, right? Heh, your title matches you -- a great artist, indeed! :D

And don't worry if everyone knows what you are! Itayo ang bandila! :banana:

[toni]

Ahh busted. Everyone knows Toni's my sister! :) and now everyone knows what I am... :D Filipino!!

I guess I shouldn't put 'Hotel Bella Muerte' in my location now...

are you embarrassed of our race, rec? oh my! I might disown u ! joke..
Chin up, Rec! :thumbs_up

listen to Gadget gal ;)

[RoCKiTcZa]

Wow, nice poem you got there, Andrew. So deep and meaningful... did you put this on the Personal Poetry thread?

---

I wonder where is Kit. I never seen her for two days already.

Hey there. I'm back! :D Spent the whole weekend hunched over my lessons. I couldn't understand a thing. Especially algebra--I like Math, but it drains me. This week's Hell Week--long tests every single day. It's a good thing our IS test was postponed--or else I'd have to end the period getting 2 points on series of 6-item tests about d-t graphs and adding vectors using the polygon method... ARRRRGGGH!!!! Still, I'm glad I've found some time to spend in here. Litnet will always be my second home. ;)

[Gadget Girl]

Welcome back! :banana:

A lot of things in school to do, huh? *relaxes* I'm so glad that I'm so relaxed even though I have an upcoming exam at school that is very important. But look at me, I'm still on LitNet! Oh gosh, what would I do to stay away and never log in for just two days? I can't do it!

Anyway, don't fret, Kit. I love Math, especially Algebra -- it's a very interesting subject, isn't it? But sometimes I find my mind about to explode in just one difficult Algebra problem. My sister loves it though. She's the best in her class! She's a genius!!!

Hehe, but honestly, you can do it if you put your mind to it. :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hush! Don't say that! You make me feel as though I'd been planning to be gone for good and you were trying to hold me back. ;) Oh well. I guess you wouldn't do that anyway. :) Hehe. Just being senti :p

Well, yeah... taking it from you... who's probably the best in her class too (mana sa kapatid!!!:lol:)... I guess I could... if I was able to do it before, having entered high school carrying my old namesy Practical-Arts-and-sports-centered school's "highest of honors"... :blush: *sigh* However, you my school is one of those tough ones where the screening process is rigorous and a student isn't assured of his entire four years of schooling.

[andrew23]

Math is not just great, it's the language of science. It is the very soul of mathematics. I can't live without math..

[Gadget Girl]

Well, yeah... taking it from you... who's probably the best in her class too (mana sa kapatid!!!:lol:)...

Taking it from me? Nah, actually she's my older sister! :lol: It's true, she's really a genius. Her mind's full of all subjects in the world. Believe me. It's impossible to race against her.

By the way, do you have any siblings? :p

[RoCKiTcZa]

Math is not just great, it's the language of science. It is the very soul of mathematics. I can't live without math..

Indeed. Math is an essential part of life. No one could live without it. Yet still we shun it as if it were only an accessory to our being.


Taking it from me? Nah, actually she's my older sister! :lol: It's true, she's really a genius. Her mind's full of all subjects in the world. Believe me. It's impossible to race against her.

By the way, do you have any siblings? :p

Impossible? How come? Perhaps if you try, maybe it'll be a tie...;)

Well, I'm an only child... it's really quite fun. I grew up in the company of older people. I've got a load of cousins though, and a few nieces and nephews as well (thanks to my really old father-side cuzzes). Most of them are younger. It's really quite fun to play with them and teach them things. :)

[Gadget Girl]

Yeah, you're right. I have a two younger nephews too. And believe me they're like Dennis the Menace. Actually, we call the first nephew Dennis the Menace 'cuz he is SO annoying. His younger bro, just a little bit, but he's following his older brother's footsteps. :rolleyes:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Whoa. And both of them live in your house? Well, I guess it can be fun too. :D

[Gadget Girl]

Fun? Fun?? No way! It is not! If you could only see my situation, you'll wish you are living where you are living now. :lol:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Oh well. I guess. When I was ten years old, we spent our whole Christmas vacation at my uncle's house. My cousin, who was 5 then, was really smart, and having "taken after me" (as stated in stories told to him by his mom and dad), he tailed behind me all the time and asked me to read him stories to the point that he was nearly forcing me to read exactly the way he wanted the stories to be read to him. Yet he was a kid, and because of this I could not contest against him. I had to give way, even though it would ruin my so-called "reputation" that ran everywhere. I found it really irritating. He kept getting mad at me because I kept saying "wala lang." When we left, he was only half-awake, and none of us cared much about the years to come. After all, "we'd had enough." :p

We call their house often, though, and whenever he gets on the phone, he yells into my ear indirect statements of missing me etc., yet by then my eardrums would be too rattled to hear. :lol:

[Gadget Girl]

Haha! He misses you so much, then! Aww, how sweet. When my other cousins were away when I was a little kid, they'll call me saying that they miss me and I will immediately yell at the phone how I also want them to be home, giving my grandma a heart attack. :lol: That was the good 'ol days.

I also remember I made my cousins and siblings to read to me the stories like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Jack and the Beanstalk, Ugly Duckling, Little Red Riding Hood and so much more. I will enjoy reading with them because they were all pop-up books, which I really loved before so I was just looking at the pictures while they read. :D That was the easy life.

[andrew23]

huh? what the hell am i doing. it's 1 am in the dead of the night. and im still goofin around the living room. this is stupid..

[Gadget Girl]

Andrew, you're still awake at 1 AM? Come on, you can stay awake longer than that. Do you know what time it is now? Right at this moment? It's 2:05 AM and my eyes are still blinking. Although, I'm a little sleepy, but I can stay logged in for just a couple of minutes then I'll finally go to sleep. Zzzz...

[andrew23]

oh boy.. the competition for who can stay wake the latest has begun..

so far, Gadget Girl is on the top of the ranks..

[Gadget Girl]

Haha! Yeah! So the competition had begun, huh? LOL

[andrew23]

Time to visit my special place..

"A special place"
by Andrew

My soul is stucked in a place
Of still silence and loneliness,
There under the warm sun,
Staring at the sky's vastness.

I was always there alone,
Far from the joys of others,
Far from the laughs and smiles,
And no one even bothers.

That special place in my heart
Has been a home for me,
It's warm and comfortable,
And it gives me serenity.

I thirst for the sunlight
To touch my cold soul,
I like to see the leaves nod,
Drowsy like sleeping.

I know I'll always be alone,
This sentiment is fine,
Cause I can always go there
In the special place of mine.

[Gadget Girl]

We have the same feeling. :nod: Nice work, Andrew. Your poems are really good.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Haha! He misses you so much, then! Aww, how sweet. When my other cousins were away when I was a little kid, they'll call me saying that they miss me and I will immediately yell at the phone how I also want them to be home, giving my grandma a heart attack. :lol: That was the good 'ol days.

I also remember I made my cousins and siblings to read to me the stories like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Jack and the Beanstalk, Ugly Duckling, Little Red Riding Hood and so much more. I will enjoy reading with them because they were all pop-up books, which I really loved before so I was just looking at the pictures while they read. :D That was the easy life.

Awww!!! :D Perhaps he does...

Hey guys... sorry for not coming round over the weekend... I've been busy reviewing for socsci... and my mom practically forced me to do math... seems like you were having this contest at staying awake, huh? Hmmm.... :D So, how's life going anyway?

And oh, Andrew... I feel for your poems... ;)

[Gadget Girl]

Yo Kit! It's good that you're back again. If you're busy reviewing for socsci, mine is not really important at all. I'm editting a video to post on YouTube. Actually, it's just a fanvid about something. Oh well, this is my first, so I don't expect it to be grand.

Anyways, you wouldn't believe I stayed awake 'til 3:15 in the morning. So that goes another point for me. :D Hahaha!

I do hope you can join in our contest, Kit. That would be sooooo much fun!

[andrew23]

oh man, i can't go beyond 1 a.m. this maybe the limit for me...ugh..ugh..zzzzz...Zzzzzzz...zzzzzz

[RoCKiTcZa]

Yo Kit! It's good that you're back again. If you're busy reviewing for socsci, mine is not really important at all. I'm editting a video to post on YouTube. Actually, it's just a fanvid about something. Oh well, this is my first, so I don't expect it to be grand.

Anyways, you wouldn't believe I stayed awake 'til 3:15 in the morning. So that goes another point for me. :D Hahaha!

I do hope you can join in our contest, Kit. That would be sooooo much fun!

Hmmm... sure! I mean, why not? Maybe when Christmas vacation begins.
Betcha I can stay awake the whole night!!! :lol:

Oh, and by the way, what's the address of the vid? I'd love to see that one. ;)

[Gadget Girl]

Haha! Let's see about that. :lol:

Here's the link of my video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnmkg7_rWnk). Please tell me what you think! It would be greatly appreciated. :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Sure! Is it there? Ooh, I'll look at it when I'm not in school. We're not allowed to access youtube... and even if we were, the librarian-in-charge right now would tell us to scat from our computers...

And by the way when will your Christmas vacation begin?

[Gadget Girl]

Hahaha! At least you are lucky to access some websites in your school, 'cuz mine doesn't have an internet connection at all, which is sucks. :lol:

We don't know when Christmas vacation will start yet, but I hope it's coming soon! :D I'm very excited!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Woohoo! :D When it comes, will you be able to spend the whole day in litnet?\

To all the Filipinos out there...
HAPPY BONI DAY!!!:banana:
that's because it's a holiday tomorrow... ;)

[Gadget Girl]

Hahaha! I almost forgot. Shame on me.

Hmmm, maybe. If I don't have any work to do (as usual). :lol:

[Reccura]

Bonifacio Day!! :p lol

[andrew23]

oh yeah, no classes.

[Gadget Girl]

Yehey! :banana: :banana: :banana:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Aww... classes have resumed...
as expected, I'm back... :D

[Gadget Girl]

Gosh, I don't know what to do right now. I'm free as a bird, but I'm staying here doing nothing. *sighs* Do you have any suggestions to make my time worthwhile? :confused:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Bravo, Andrew! Another wonderful poem from you. :) Your poems are so real and captivating, especially to Pinoys who are naturally "senti" :p Haha, just kidding!!! I suggest that you keep on writing--write some more!--and you'll be on your way. ;) Do you write for your school's journal, or submit any of your works?

Oh--by the way--I love these lines:

Can I gently hold your hand?
Can I hold you in my arms tight?
Dreams and reality inside my head
Are always making a fight.

The last line sounds kind of odd, though. Perhaps you might want to improve on it. :)

[andrew23]

anyway about that one, i'm trying to forget about that girl now.

darn it, i feel stupid talking about love.

i wouldn't hangout in Litnet for a while..bye guys..

[Gadget Girl]

Don't feel stupid. Everybody's feeling it. They also talk like crazy about love. Well, I'll wait for your return, Andrew. Have a nice LitNet-free days. :D

You know, I'm not like the one I was before that everyday I will be present on LitNet. I've already broke what I said and it's a shame... I can always have time to visit LitNet, but I can't make myself! What is wrong with me? Before, I can't make myself leave LitNet for awhile, but look at me! :(

[RoCKiTcZa]

Awww!!! What's happening to all the Filipinos? Why do you all seem to be dropping out? What's going on? HELP! Are you going to leave me alone? Nooooooooo!!! :bawling:

Well, actually, I left litnet myself. That was for around... six days? Or was that six years? Whatever. :rolleyes: Let's see: Monday, I was on the research vessel. Tuesday, that was our field trip. Wednesday, we went to Zambales. Traveling isn't that bad after all, don't you think? I suppose a lot of you are on vacation too. And Gadget... what happened? Do you mean you're gonna leave us too?

[eyemaker]

Hi there RoCKiTcZa! I'm also a Filipino!!! I want to be friends with you!!h:D

[intoxicatedsoul]

Im new in this village and Im proud to be PINAY !

[Gadget Girl]

Hey Kit, I won't leave LitNet. Maybe I'll just visit from time to time but if you're saying everyday... well, I don't suppose I can do that anymore. My schedule is piling up! This week I've been very busy with all the stuffs happening in my life and I hardly open my laptop.

Wow! Two new Filipinos! Ha! Welcome eyemaker and intoxicatedsoul! Hope you'll have a great time here!

It's really fun if someone is posting on this thread. It will somehow be more alive! :D

[babes]

OH HELL YEAH. Proud to be Pinoy. :D

[toni]

oh boi and my baby love is oh so onliiine :banana:

[andrew23]

:banana:

I've never seen a dancing banana before. The world is indeed more peculiar than I thought.

And uh, I found a poem written in the wind.

"Me and the moon"

Just a little moment,
Let it be just this way,
Just stay there tonight
Until tomorrow if you may.

Please glow forever,
Let this ecstatic joy last,
Cause your beautiful radiance
Makes me forget the lonely past.

Let my heart celebrate
This rapturous feeling inside,
Let me be here forever
Til the beautiful night subside.

Our cold souls gather here
In this precious, silent hours,
And tonight we shall enjoy
The evening without stars.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hello there, eyemaker! Welcome to litnet! :D The same goes to babes and to intoxicatedsoul... ;) Wanna be friends with me, eh? Why, certainly! Wouldn't that be great! Where in the Philippines do you live, by the way?

To andrew: I haven't told you this before, but perhaps it's time you found out what I think. The titles of your poems have always given me a shock, but no other poem shocked me as much as your most recent one. "Me and the Moon." Goodness, that is so... me!!! :lol: p Really, I have no idea what to say. That's because we used to call my ex-crush "the Moon." :p

[andrew23]

oh bright, cold moon,
mid planet her slaves,
herself in the heavens,
her beam on the waves,

To Rockiszta: Really? Does it shock you? I see. I must have set it in high voltage. Nah, just jokin. Anyway, if it is indeed the name of you ex-crush, what a coincidence I must say, the world seems to be more suprising than I thought. I am really taken aback these days by the world's sudden twist of fates.

Okay, I'll be going now..

[eyemaker]

Hi there RoCKiTcZa!:wave: ILOILO... YOU???

[RoCKiTcZa]

To Rockiszta: Really? Does it shock you? I see. I must have set it in high voltage. Nah, just jokin. Anyway, if it is indeed the name of you ex-crush, what a coincidence I must say, the world seems to be more suprising than I thought. I am really taken aback these days by the world's sudden twist of fates.

hehe! :lol: aww, not really. his real name is Dan and we were almost... you know!... but because of my own stupidity all my hopes and chances were lost... damn, I don't really want to talk about it but then again I guess it's just right... serves him fine for being that way, daring to hold my hand and walk with me and letting go of everything when I confessed my love for him. Oh well. :( We call him "the moon" because the zits and chickenpox scars (without them he would've been handsome) make him look like it :p :lol: The world is indeed surprising, but that doesn't include him, I suppose. ;)

To eyemaker: I see! My grandfather was Ilonggo too (though his ancestry can be traced back to Mexico, Italy and Spain :blush:). He was born in Aklan, however. Confusing, eh? :D I was born in Cotabato (that's in Mindanao ;)) but I'm here in Metro Manila right now for my studies.

[babes]

Ohhhh yay. Toni Love <3

[RoCKiTcZa]

Eyemaker! BUZZ!!! Do you still log in?
How about you? Andrew? Ohhh... what's going on?

[andrew23]

kit, i rarely log in these days.

let me leave this amazing line b4 i go..
"I miss you like the sun misses the flower after winter."

[RoCKiTcZa]

Awww... you mean you're really going to leave litnet? For good? But why? :bawling:

[andrew23]

i'm not really leaving forever. i'll just have fewer visits..

[RoCKiTcZa]

i'm not really leaving forever. i'll just have fewer visits..

Say, why's that? School's making you busy, eh?

Yep, same with me. :)

[andrew23]

oh god..poetic lines suddenly and frequently comes out from my head these days!!

"And i'd cut my own heart, with the sharp sword of your goodbye."
Amazing, i'm speechless. must be some sort of magic or somethin..

[RoCKiTcZa]

I really think you should get a blog now. You really should start posting 'em there. :p

[Sir Bartholomew]

hello hello kamusta sa inyo

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hey there, Sir Bartholomew! Have we met? ;) I think I've seen you around the forums before. My, your presence in this thread pretty surprised me. I didn't know you were a Filipino! :p So, where in the Philippines are you?

[Sir Bartholomew]

Hey there, Sir Bartholomew! Have we met? I think I've seen you around the forums before. My, your presence in this thread pretty surprised me. I didn't know you were a Filipino! So, where in the Philippines are you?

:lol: Have I gained notoriety that quickly? I'm currently in Manila now.

So what are you people up to?

[Gadget Girl]

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What's up with everyone? I missed all of you guys! *cries* Say, what happened when I was gone?

Nothing much, eh? It looks like it has been the way it was since I've left.

[Sir Bartholomew]

:yawnb: i'm reading a George Eliot book.

People here familiar with this list by the Modern Library? In 1998 they did this list of the "100 best" novels of the 20th century. You can see the list here. (http://www.nytimes.com/library/books/072098best-novels-list.html) I wouldn't agree as to it's claim as "the best" but it sure is a fun thing to do.

I've been doing it since last year, and most of the books are very interesting. So far I finished 60 already and I decided to read something not in the list, which is Adam Bede.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Wow. That's great. :) I really envy you for having the time to do that... why, those are the books I've always wanted to read! I've read Animal Farm and a few chapters taken from Lord of the Flies. A Clockwork Orange is interesting too. As of now, I'm on the lookout for books that disturb the mind (oftentimes, they are the ones that really make you think). Young adult literature (especially Newbery-award books) has captured my interest as well.

[eyemaker]

Hi there Rock!!! Good day!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hey there eyemaker! I'm soooo glad you're online. I've been waiting so long for something to happen in this forum... and presto, it has!!! :lol: So, just hanging around? Sorry I wasn't able to reply to your PM :blush: I only read it through my phone in the middle of a boring school program. As you see, I've been so busy I haven't even been to litnet the whole weekend!

[eyemaker]

Same here! I've been busy this past few weeks..Right now I'm doing a reaction paper in accordance to our community exposure! Ugh!...I immediately peeped out at my class and went to the nearest internet cafe!
So what are you doing right noW???

[RoCKiTcZa]

Arrrggghh... which reminds me... I'm not even supposed to be here!!! I'm supposed to be out watching this kite-flying activity (they said they were taking attendance, but as long as there are first years around, I'm safe). Ohh... Pisay. :rolleyes: You escaped, eh? Say, where do you study?

(Damn my super-speed typing... it makes everyone look. :mad:)

[toni]

Hi rockit <3

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hi rockit <3

Hey there. Sorry I haven't been logging in to my networking sites lately. My friendster's been dormant for weeks! How are you doing? :D

[eyemaker]

Arrrggghh... which reminds me... I'm not even supposed to be here!!! I'm supposed to be out watching this kite-flying activity (they said they were taking attendance, but as long as there are first years around, I'm safe). Ohh... Pisay. :rolleyes: You escaped, eh? Say, where do you study?

(Damn my super-speed typing... it makes everyone look. :mad:)



Ugh! I hate that too.!
THankfully I escaped( I hate our teacher then!)
I don't know if your familiar with our school...CPU! Here at western Visayas it's famouS( I guesss>>>)

It's great having those extra speedy hand!
Sorry for the slow response(I'am currently typing my work):D

[RoCKiTcZa]

ohh... central philippine university? :)

That's great then... you can escape! Ohh, I'm so glad they don't take attendance. Philippine Science High School is sooo...
...nice. But tiring. And sometimes boring.

About the speedy hand? Nah. Well, it is good sometimes. I admit that. Especially when you're in a hurry with something. In computer science and all the computer-related subjects your classmates tell you to type everything because you're the "master typist" while they sit around "supervising". But not when you lack discipline (like me!). I admire your ability to do requirements without being bothered very much with the "other stuff."

[eyemaker]

Yeah! Wait Rock I think I have to go and attend my PE class.. I'll be back later!

[RoCKiTcZa]

All right... :) See ya! My, another long minute of silence.

[eyemaker]

I'm here again Rock! thankfully our teacher allowed us to go this early!
Whew! I have walked a loT,... Say, what topic do you want to discuss Rock???

[RoCKiTcZa]

ohh, goodness! The librarian on duty right now is sobrang nakakabad-trip. May nakain ata. :p I don't know what makes litnet a prohibited website. I'm sneaking anyway. Might as well get on home.

Anyways, that's good for you; papayat ka na talaga. Say, what's with the "eyes" in your username? Love eyes, eh? Why don't you replace the "i" in your subname with "eye" to make it strike a note... hehe, la lang. :D

[eyemaker]

Sure..I like that idea too..
E Y E S
I love eyes pretty much! I'm fond of drawing them at the back of my notes...that serves as my own identity..whenever we are checking papers I would gradually put an eye first at my signature at the back and tadaa...(LOL)

My classmates envy me coz I can draw beautiful eyes! I love drawing anime characters(the eyes great)..The style of their draft is somewhat similar as I do.

[RoCKiTcZa]

I'm back!

Eyes serve as eyemaker's own eyedentity. :cool:

(Is it a he or a she, by the way?:))

Aww, that's so cool! Anime eyes! I've always longed to draw them, even though I already do have my own style of drawing (emo cartooning--tada!!!) By the way, why don't you post some of your eye drawings in the "Let Out The Artist In You" thread? Our fellow litnetters will be taken aback for sure... and you shall expect a gasp from me once you decide to put them on exhibit. ;)

[Sir Bartholomew]

Wow. That's great. :) I really envy you for having the time to do that... why, those are the books I've always wanted to read! I've read Animal Farm and a few chapters taken from Lord of the Flies. A Clockwork Orange is interesting too. As of now, I'm on the lookout for books that disturb the mind (oftentimes, they are the ones that really make you think). Young adult literature (especially Newbery-award books) has captured my interest as well.

i actually bought most of them in booksale. imagine buying a hemingway book for 15 pesos :lol: the store clerks think i'm crazy, though.

most of the novels on that list are pretty insane too. well, aside from those which were written by insane authors (my favorite on that list, so far, is To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woof) or authors that can actually turn you nuts (Henry James or William Faulkner) Faulkner is the best because he writes like a madman; see The Sound & the Fury (a favorite of mine too) where he utilized the stream of consciousness method first person narrative on a retard and a neurotic.

[eyemaker]

I wonder where Rock is....
----
Rock!....

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hello there. :wave: I'm right here!

I'm so sorry. I hardly get a chance to log in to litnet anymore. Perhaps you already know why. Lately I've been in such a bad mood. Some people in here who have seen my previous blog entries know why. I'm trying my best NOT to be depressed, though.

I really miss the times when I could log in to litnet every single day and post by the dozen. :( However, I'll try my best to keep in touch with all the Filipinos in here, especially you, eyemaker. :) Will text you soon.

[Gadget Girl]

I'm officially back. I can be online anytime I want to. So anyways, any news?

[Sir Bartholomew]

:yawnb:

[eyemaker]

Hi there Sir Bart!

[Sir Bartholomew]

hello eyemaker. i see that you like Tolstoy, why do people like him? How do you compare him to Dostoevsky? i'm to read a Dostoevsky this week and pretty new to this Russian thing.

[toni]

Greetings, Sir Bartholemew.

Welcome to Litnet. I see you area fan of D.H Lawrence and Thomas Hardy, too!

(does the Hardy and Lawrence dance)


*edit*
Why did I welcome you when you are already nearing a hundred posts??

[Sir Bartholomew]

how does that Hardy and Lawrence dance work? :brow:

[eyemaker]

hello eyemaker. i see that you like Tolstoy, why do people like him? How do you compare him to Dostoevsky? i'm to read a Dostoevsky this week and pretty new to this Russian thing.

Hi there my Filipino friend!
...read Russian fiction often(try Tolstoy) you will see how it works!
I found it very interesting.

[toni]

how does that Hardy and Lawrence dance work? :brow:

the hardy and Lawrence dance goes like this :

http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee82/warriormaiden09/hamtaro_s2_017.gif

incidentally, that is tend's fave smiley :p haha kidding, tend.:eek:

[Sir Bartholomew]

i'm reading Crime & Punishment and i've just finished part one. a bit brutal for a novel published in 1866. i'm liking it though. now i can see Dostoevsky's influence on the modernists.

hey toni i think i'm getting that dance step :p so what are your favorite Hardy and Lawrence books? i always think there's resemblance on how they see things & most of their stories are usually placed in similar settings (rural England, the heath, moors etc). Both like volutptious ladies too ;) You're kind of expecting Lucetta and Gudrun appear at the same time.

[RoCKiTcZa]

I'm officially back. I can be online anytime I want to. So anyways, any news?

Hey Gadget! Now I am the one who's been absent for ages....

[Gadget Girl]

Hey Gadget! Now I am the one who's been absent for ages....

Gosh, I read your post at the 'LitNet prohibited in your school' issue and you said that you were absent for days. I know the feeling, but you also said you have a benefit for leaving our beloved site. :lol: That's nice that you did well for your grades. Meanwhile, my life is still the same as always -- sitting in front of the computer and never leaving it! *sighs*

Good luck with your studies, Kit! :D

[RoCKiTcZa]

Heeeyyy... I'm back... litnetting in the library! Wahee!!! :D :banana:

Now you're thinking: Man, Kit, you're crazy. I thought litnet was banned in that place...

Actually, it is banned. So why do I keep going even though I know very well that they don't allow it?

Kasi magaling ako. :D
Just kidding!!!

(Arrrrgggh!!! Now I'm getting to be so much like my old Mr. Casia...now that the two of us are partners for the second time around. Damn whoever controls all humans' destiny on Earth...:p)

Thanks for wishing me good luck. Good luck to you, too in your new place!!! :D Why don't you tell the world?

[Gadget Girl]

What a lawbreaker! :lol: Look who's talking, I break the rules all the time. Well, not always, I only do it if I have to. :D

I won't because I'm shy, remember? Besides, I want to be mysterious as possible... hahahahahaha!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Too bad... for you have just chanced upon that barefaced human being who literally forces shy people out of their shells! :lol: Just kidding!

:eek: GG is a shy lawbreaker? Scary you... please, now that you're living in that place... no culture shock! Hope you don't become one of those wild youths out there who pierce every single square inch of skin they have on their bodies and force every boy they see to a tongue-wrestling round in a darkness-filled corner... you're not one of them, are you?

Warn me if I'm becoming scary now...

[Gadget Girl]

NOOOOO!!! I'm not going to pierce my whole body and ESPECIALLY the tongue-wrestling thing! That'll be so gross and scary! I'm so not like them.

Hey, the "shy lawbreaker" is perfect for my title. Thanks for naming me! It's amazing! :D This will be the first time I'm going to change my 'Marauder' name. Congrats!

Yep, you're scary alright, but not that scary. I'll warn you if you'll become one. ;)

Perfect timing Kit. You're offline by the time I replied. *sighs*

Oh you're online again! Yipee!!! :banana:

Heeeeyyyy. My, that was quick. ;)

I wasn't really offline then... I was just browsing other sites, trying to post a photo to my Multiply account (darn that stupid site--why the heck did friendster have to get blocked anyway?! :rage:) when litnet automatically logged me off. I'm browsing facebook right now. Has your sister sent it to you yet? *twitches in seat* I can't wait to see it!!! :D

Haha... thanks a lot then! Supplier of Names... haha, could that be me? :blush: Whoa, first eyemaker, then Gadget Girl, then myself? WHEEEEE!!! :banana: Dance, dance...

*heaves sigh of relief* I'm sooo glad you're not like them!!! So, any new goings-on in your new place? Life can't be that boring there... or is it? :eek:

:D

[Gadget Girl]

No, not yet. She's still sleeping. :lol:

Ha, you can say that again. It's boring, not like there. :(

I'm actually watching a movie here 'cuz that's what I can do at this time. hehehehe

[eyemaker]

Hi there! Rock! You're bacK!

[RoCKiTcZa]

No, not yet. She's still sleeping. :lol:

Ha, you can say that again. It's boring, not like there. :(

I'm actually watching a movie here 'cuz that's what I can do at this time. hehehehe

Seems pretty quiet.

A movie? What's the title?


Hi there! Rock! You're bacK!

Yup! Say, the Calling All Filipinos thread seems to be going pretty fast. :D

Sooo sorry for not texting! Still haven't got any load! Waaaaaa!!!

By the way, are you at home now? :D So, you can go on litnet! HOORAY for you!!!

[Gadget Girl]

I'm watching "Enchanted". My favorite movie of all time! Say, have you seen that?

Hey there, eyemaker!

To Kit: ran out of load? Gosh, I miss my old classmates. They always shout 'pasa load please!!!' at school. :lol:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Wow. You must be really loaded then, to have that sort of reputation. Seeing you is like seeing an opportunity for... LOAD!!! ;) Rich girl.

Enchanted. Na-ah. Haven't seen that one yet. What's it about again? The title sounds really familiar to me. (Gosh, my box-office knowledge is so outdated!)

[Gadget Girl]

Nah, I'm not loaded. I don't have that reputation. My classmates are shouting with my other classmates or sometimes at random students who will pass their way (they're like bullies, poor little kids).

Enchanted is the best! It's a Walt Disney production. Here's the summary:

An animated fairy tale meets modern, live-action comedy. The beautiful princess Giselle is banished by an evil queen from her magical, musical animated land and finds herself in the gritty reality of the streets of modern-day Manhattan. Shocked by this strange new environment that doesn't operate on a "happily ever after" basis, Giselle is now adrift in a chaotic world badly in need of enchantment. But when Giselle begins to fall in love with a charmingly flawed divorce lawyer who has come to her aid - even though she is already promised to a perfect fairy tale prince back home - she has to wonder: Can a storybook view of romance survive in the real world?

If you have time you can see the trailer on YouTube. Just don't watch the spoilers 'cuz that'll ruin the excitement.

[RoCKiTcZa]

Awww. That's how it works... life with other kids. Too bad you're missing it! Bwahahaha! :p Now here comes another bully!

Sure, I'll try to get hold of one of 'em DVDs. :)

Hey, by the way, what time will you be online? (We've been taught to do complex computations on the Earth's time zones--thanks to our great Earthsci teacher :)--so you don't really have to bother converting your time). My, your post count sure is increasing! :D

Hope I could catch you online!

P.S. Are you familiar with the website "Tagged?"
Perhaps you might want to check it out... it's a networking site similar to myspace and friendster, but it isn't blocked on most school computers.
I'm a member... maybe you could be my friend there :)

[eyemaker]

Hi there Rock!

[RoCKiTcZa]

Hello there eye! Isn't this amazing! We've caught each other online for two consecutive days! :cool:

Say, how long have you been here? :)

[eyemaker]

oh..just an hour

Seems great! I've been texting you this week..

[RoCKiTcZa]

:blush:

Yep, I've received your texts... soooo sorry for not texting back. :bawling: Still haven't got any load on that SIM, so I keep it in my old phone at home while my other SIM goes with me to school. You're unli everyday, I suppose, so I suppose sending texts to other networks wouldn't be very practical for you. Is that right?

[Sir Bartholomew]

after valentine's day and a 2 week reading of Crime & Punishment and watching Pedro Almodovar movies without the subtitles I'm going out to the arcade. i'm to sweat this all out!

Kakainggit di ko na kaya mag Maniac or Heavy or SSR or whatever sa Dance Revo! Matanda na ako! Huhuhu! Doon na lang ako sa mga lasers. Ano tawag doon?

Anyway balik booksale baka may mga bago silang dating.

It's 10:40, I'll be online until twelve because I'm trying my best to sleep early. Yesterday I slept at 9:30 (that was so unbelievable) and woke up at 2:00 in the afternoon (more unbelievable) and now I told myself to sleep at 9:30 again but missed it so twelve o'clock is plan B. :D

It's not hard for me to know your time because I'll just have to add four hours from my time and that's it! :lol:

You're not here yet though, I guess you're still at school. Anyway, I don't have a Tagged account. Only MySpace... just joined several weeks ago. I once have a Friendster account, however, it was messed up and everything so I needed to cancel and transfer to MySpace.

Oh and by the way, happy Valentines day everyone! ;)

Ooh ASTIG... arcade!!! :D I miss that.

Too old for Dance Revo? Oh, no, no... no one's too old for anything! ;) You just gotta have the heart! :lol:

By the way, it says in your profile that you are a writer by profession; am I right? :idea: Was just wondering, which publications do you write for/how many books have you written? :) You see, your presence has amused me so much, and for some reason your writing style seems familiar to me yet so original. :p

Hope you wouldn't mind...

Hey Gadget. Ooh, so it's 1 AM right now in your place. Now this is what we call "ADAPTATION..." goodness Gadget, you really are alive :p

I can't stay long, so I'll just be saying my greetings... there's this ongoing rally... and my mom's really edgy around here... I don't know why. It's all so crazy.

[Sir Bartholomew]

doing my 3rd annual Jane Austen marathon. :blush:

[RoCKiTcZa]

Gosh, Sir Bartholomew, you're such a bookworm! I'm beginning to think you're this author who's known throughout the Philippines... hehe, please put up with me--me and my crazy ideas. :p

I really miss reading, having been unable to do so for quite a long time on account of my being so busy (you know, school and everything). In fact there were times when I used to cry helplessly over things too silly to be cried for, wishing for the summer to come. The fact that school's over now, however, seems to have a different impact on me. First of all, I'll be a year older, and I don't think I would like to grow up. If only there were a way for time to stop or for it to at least keep reeling on without having to change, I'd grasp it right away. This year I am in right now (and the year I will be leaving soon) is the best year in high school--everyone says so. Next year, there will be too many subjects, which means too many work to do at night. No more monster breaks--nothing. No two-hour lunches. No more extra time to cram. Next year, there will be no stage plays, no overnight batch activities. No Stargazing--the best overnight activity my batch has ever had. And then the most feared phenomenon--the Reshuffling of Sections. :( And to think that it's the month of March--my birth month--a month for me to grow up--and grow another year older. And I don't want to grow up! Not anymore!!!

*sigh* On the bright side, however...
...I'm back!!!
:D

[Sir Bartholomew]

Ah high school life. Mine wasn't worth writing home about honestly. Although I read my first classic, which was Wuthering Heights, after they put me in detention in the library. My fondest memory in high school I guess.

[Gadget Girl]

You should sing the song "Grow Up" by Simple Plan, Kit. :)

OK, I'm old and I feel like I'm stuck in my life I couldn't get out of. I wanna move on and do the fun stuffs, to enjoy life more, to be happy. *sighs* If only I can do that at this moment, I will definitely not gonna waste a second. But no worries, I'm very near to that now. :D

14. old. 14. old. 14. old. A decade and four years. Old. :( Yeah, you must be right. I myself feel old too. But you--old? Noooo way. You didn't look so old in your pic. I look like a sober 20-year-old. :bawling:

Haha. Never mind me. I'm just trying to get it all out, so that maybe I could force myself into believing I'm young again :lol: Yeah, I believe you'll have more freedom in America once you get used to things there. They will set you free sometime, don't you ever worry about that :) I myself sometimes think I'm a prisoner in my own household. *sigh* If only there were a better way to spend this summer. I can't really hang out much, and besides there wouldn't be anything much to do soon besides make myself smart. :p Yeah, that's what I'm expected to do, if I really want to stay in Pisay. Pisay, Pisay, Pisay. :rolleyes: Oh well. It is quite a wonderful school.

Oh, by the way, Grow Up by Simple Plan? Yeah, I know the band. I love 'em. :)

Hey, Sir Bart! Wuthering Heights, eh? The book by Emily Bronte? It's a beautiful book, they say, and I've heard it was the inspiration for a certain popular song (I'm not sure which one, though). I haven't read it yet, but once I manage to get hold of a copy, I'll have my nose in it for an hour or two (until I finish it). :brow:

You got detention in the library? Wonderful! That would probably be the best and most sought-after punishment a student could ever long for. ;)

[Sir Bartholomew]

Yep the one by Emily Bronte. It's funny because last Black Saturday GMA7 was showing The Promise, a lot was based from Wuthering Heights.

[RoCKiTcZa]

That's the way movies and literature are nowadays, I guess. Hardly anything is purely original--except perhaps the really good ones. :)

[andrew23]

hellooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hahaha, do not be suprised if my hello was full of energy, hehe!
wow, it's been awhile since i have posted something here in this thread. but ofcourse, i wouldn't be suprised if you still remember me, hehe. anyway, here are the news..

{

let's start with the bad news:
i screwed up in the microbiology exam. perhaps lack of review. anyway, i just guessed the answers in majority of the questions. you know, the "hoola-hoop" thing. it kinda of feels bad ofcourse, i don't want to fail in that subject. but anyway, 3 years ago, me and my friends composed a song called "pogi-kong-titser," it's my spirit-lifting source of power at tough times like this hehe. wanna listen to the song?

here's the link (http://www.imeem.com/people/4J4taf/music/E9vQS2vK/them_pogi_kong_titser/)

}

{

and then the good news is:

i just made a poem this morning...(ang babaw ng kaligayan? hehe)

}

[RoCKiTcZa]

Goodness! Welcome back, andrew! It really has been a long time since you last posted. What brings you back? :)

Aww, that's really sad news coming from you... but you know what? It's all right. Everyone makes mistakes once in a while. I'm sure Einstein didn't always come up with the right theory all the time--and in fact I'm pretty certain E=mc2 didn't just explode into his brain like an atom bomb :lol: You've got to accept it, for you are only human and every human being makes mistakes. No one is perfect. Still, there's something you can and ought to do--make sure it won't happen again the next time around. How can you do that? Don't just study--prepare. That's what the really great Physics/Earthsci teacher in our school tells us. :) If you get to drop by our school sometime, I'm sure I could manage to get him teach you--you'll learn quite a lot from him. Well, I not very familiar about the details of microbiology (say, what course do you take up?) but I'm pretty sure my mom could help you (she got a 1.0 in that subject when she was in college!). We could learn this simultaneously, what do you think? :D

Mababaw ang kaligayahan, eh? Sure, don't worry, pareho lang tayo :lol: Pero teka--hindi mababaw yun! That's great, you know! That's an accomplishment you ought to be very proud of--why, even I always feel good after completing a good poem (I'm not really a 'seasoned writer'--of course not yet--but I do have lots of experience in writing stories and poems, having done it since I was two) because I should admit my poems aren't always that good. :)

Sure, I'll listen to the song.

Hope to hear from you again! :D

[andrew23]

ughh..my throat feels dry..

[Sir Bartholomew]

:bawling: wuhuhuhuhuhu! (papansin)

[BEXsezThAt]

Hello... Long time no post... Some of you don't know me... at least one of you out there does, I know...

Just wanna find out: who here's a fan of Paulo Coelho? *eagerly raises hand*

[no_one_knws]

HiHi!!!

I'm a pino as well. Nice to hear there are "kababayans" hear. =)

Bex, I'm a fan. Although I've only read The Alchemist. Looking forward to read some more of his other books. And Looking forward to getting to know you lot. =)

[eyemaker]

Any Filipino present at this moment???

[Sir Bartholomew]

sagot! sagot! at ako'y tinatamad na. nakakahilo mag ingles dito sa LitNet. magbasa tayo ng book. Death Comes for the Archbishop by Willa Cather. recommend ko yan basahin niyo yan mga bata! kahit nasa work, kahit nasa bus, basa hala. lol hahaha.

[bouquin]

Death Comes for the Archbishop is actually on my TBR longlist. Among Cather's works I have read Alexander's Bridge and My Antonia both of which I liked but would not consider my absolute favorites. Right now I'm reading The Poisonwood Bible, I very highly recommend it.
